Goryeo, Gyeonggi-do, an unknown hill beside the Han River.

Two Weiyuan artillery pieces, four Folan machine guns, and three Tiger Crouching Artillery pieces. Chiyang's artillery position stationed on the hill has entered combat mode at this moment. More than twenty artillerymen wearing only thin jackets are constantly moving them. Ammunition, adjust the artillery, and as soon as Commander Yan Si gives the order, he will immediately launch artillery to attack the Eight Banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, reducing the defensive pressure on our infantry brothers! And on their periphery, there is a full sentry, with a total of thirty-six fully armed regular flag troops guarding the fortifications to protect the safety of the artillery positions. Of course, the scheming senior management of Chiyang will not let their artillery fight alone! After all, the enemy is the Eight Banners of Manchuria, which is famous all over the world. These battle-hardened barbarians know how to use troops, and sneak attacks on enemy positions are their specialty! Once they see the opportunity to take away the firepower advantage that they rely on to win, then they will soon face a hard battle, a real hard battle!

Therefore, in order to protect their own artillery positions, Chiyang's senior leaders could only draw a full sentry from the few troops they had to station on the outside of the former! With these regular flag troops with acceptable combat power protecting the artillery positions, Chiyang Duanhou's troops can concentrate on dealing with the Eight Banners pursuers following closely behind them! What happened next also proved the foresight of Kang Lin and others. Here, Yan Sigang commanded the artillery under his command to load, adjust the artillery, and aim at Fulger, Luo Luohui and the others fired a round of artillery shells. Over there, Gurmahun, Du Ke Jian led fifty elite Eight Banners troops on solid ground and launched a fierce attack on the artillery position!

These barbarian warriors who walked out of the white mountains and black waters not only moved quickly, but also had extraordinary shooting skills. With just a few rounds of arrows in front of them, they shot the third sentry of Qin Gu's infantry so hard that he couldn't even lift his head! The latter did not have the double-layered armor that came standard with the guards. With only a piece of cotton armor covering their bodies, they had no power to fight back against the heavy arrows thrown by the Jurchen's big-shaft bow. However, the military-state weapons were so powerful. Cannon, the Folang machine couldn't adjust for a while! Therefore, Yan Si could only order the three squatting tiger cannons to adjust their muzzles and cooperate with the musketeers on the periphery to block the advancing Eight Banners soldiers!

"The swordsmen and shieldmen are in the first formation, the spearmen are in the second formation, and the musketeers are in the third and fourth formations. Don't panic, everyone, and hold on to your weapons. Tartars are not three heads and six arms. They are so far apart. They couldn't fly over now, so I squatted with No. 1, 2 and 3 guns, loaded muskets and bullets, pointed them at the enemy, and opened fire one after another..."

So soon, following Commander Yan Si's order, three Tiger Crouching Cannons filled with stone bullets and lead bullets made a loud noise and sprayed long bursts of gunfire towards the Eight Banners soldiers not far away. , and a lot of hot shotgun! The next moment, several of the charging Eight Banners soldiers were knocked down by the scattered shells flying everywhere. When the other Eight Banners soldiers saw that the situation was not good, they immediately accelerated their advance. They tried to catch the next wave of shells. Before coming, rush to the enemy as quickly as possible and engage in close combat with them!

As long as they can successfully get close, they will have absolute confidence to eliminate these daring "***s" in one fell swoop! You know, the saying that the Jurchens are invincible is not just a saying. Although the warriors under Gurma Hun are not the most elite white-armored soldiers among the Eight Banners, the Chiyang they used to rush into the army is still the sleeve. Touching the arm - holding a pinch in hand.

Therefore, taking advantage of the pause in the enemy's artillery fire, Du Kejian screamed strangely, then waved the iron rod in his hand, and began to lead dozens of Jurchen warriors with evil deeds and evil looks to continue to launch a fierce attack on the Chiyang position!

"The musketeers aim at the enemy and fire a volley! The sword, shield and spear hands hold their swords tightly and prepare to face the enemy's impact!"

Seeing that the Sanzi attack could not frighten the swarming Eight Banners soldiers, Qin Gu immediately commanded the sword and shield men under his command. The spearmen straightened their weapons and shouted to meet the menacing former! Of course, before that, a round of flintlock volley is also necessary, otherwise, our own hastily assembled troops and lack of training on the battlefield will not be able to stop the wolves and tigers of the Eight Banners! So following the sentry, the armor commander roared, and the eighteen flintlock guns belonging to Chiyang's third sentry all spouted thick smoke forward! The next moment, a dozen hot lead bullets flew towards the shocked Manchurian soldiers with thunderous momentum!

"Bang bang bang..."

As the explosions of firecrackers continued to sound, the charging Eight Banners armored soldiers felt as if they were being hit head-on.

With a heavy punch, the few warriors at the front were instantly knocked backwards by the powerful blunderbuss. However, this little battle damage could not stop the powerful Manchurian army. When they heard the blunderbuss, After the sound, he immediately grasped the big shield in his hand, swung his sword, and rushed towards Chiyang's sword and shield hand and spearman at a faster speed! They had fought with the Ming Dynasty for many years and were well aware of the characteristics of these gunpowder weapons. They knew that after the enemy in front of them fired a round of bullets, it would take a long time to reload them. Therefore, under the leadership of Du Kejian, they speeded up like crazy, and in just a short moment, they arrived in front of the Chiyang Sword, Shield and Spearmen.

"Pfft, pfft..."

There was not much verbal exchange, and as soon as the two sides came into contact, a brutal fight began! The elite Eight Banners who had experienced hundreds of battles waved their heavy weapons and quickly tore open Chiyang's defensive circle. Then, more and more ordinary bannermen followed them and came in! On the other hand, although the sword, shield, and spearmen under Qin Gu were all brave men who had experienced many battles, they were formed into an army for a short time and lacked training. Therefore, they were quickly cut into the defensive circle by the Eight Banners armored soldiers, and the musketeers behind were afraid of accidentally injuring friendly forces, so they could only watch their robes fighting bloody battles in front!

"The musketeers abandoned their muskets and took out their sabers. Let's go meet those Jurchen savages who drink raw hair and drink blood to see if they are as invincible as the world boasts..."

Seeing the sword, shield and spearmen under his command being suppressed and beaten by the Jurchens, Qin Gu, one of the six sentry officers of Chiyang, held a crossbow in his left hand and a Yanling sword in his right hand, and took the lead to rush towards the gradually occupied The superior Eight Banners armored soldiers, and the other musketeers, seeing how brave their sentry commander was, also took out their secondary weapons, crossbows, and followed him to launch a desperate charge against the Jurchens!

"Duke Jian, be careful, the Nikans have crossbows!"

The Manchu Qing Dynasty's little Belgur Mahun waved the stainless steel war sickle in his hand and easily knocked down a shield-wielding man holding a rattan shield and a waist knife! However, the next moment, before he could pull out the battle sickle from the opponent's body, a scene happened that made his eyes split with rage! Qin Gu and others, who were rushing towards them, did not even take a look at the Eight Banners armored soldiers who were slashing and killing people in the crowd, and just shot a round of arrows! Then, before they could see the results of their battle, these guys waved their wild goose feather knives again and roared towards the Jurchen armored soldiers who fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. They wanted to take advantage of the opponent's being stunned to cooperate with their comrades. , defeating the latter in one fell swoop, or even destroying it!

"Well……"

Hearing his master calling him, Du Kejian subconsciously responded, but this negligence caused the man's death! After Qin Gu finished shooting the crossbow in his hand, he swung his sword directly at the guy who looked like the leader in the field and killed him with one strike! The next moment, as the sharp blade flashed across, Du Kejian, the battle-hardened Eight Banners Pashiku, fell to the ground in an instant, but his body still took a few steps forward due to inertia before finally falling to the ground!

"Warriors, let's kill these Nikans and avenge Du Ke Jian Boshi Ku!"

Witnessing the death of his beloved general and brother-in-law Du Kejian in the hands of a Nikan, Gurma Hui showed a look of shock and anger on his face! I thought that even though this guy was not a strong general in martial arts, ordinary people really couldn't do anything to him, but I didn't expect that he died in the hands of an unknown Nikan today. Zhijiao couldn't help but feel heartbroken! It should be noted that in addition to being his brother-in-law, this guy is also one of the few educated people in his hands. Without him, it would be like losing an arm! Therefore, in order to avenge him, Little Belgurmahun left the other Chiyang Banner troops, waved the stainless steel war sickle in his hand, and went straight to the culprit Qin Gu!

"Fo Langji, aim at the Jurchen leader and fire!"

On the hillside, on the Chiyang artillery position, a small wolf machine that fired five liang cannons finally turned its gun body with the cooperation of the artillery! So soon, the dull sound of the breech-loaded cannons being fired was heard on the battlefield. Those flying bullets easily calmed down the overheated heads of Gurmahun and others. The latter looked at a few The cannons ten steps away were loaded again, and they slowly adjusted the firing angle toward themselves. They immediately gave up the fight very wisely and began to fight and retreat to the place where the main force was not far away! They don't want to use their flesh and blood to resist the enemy's shells, so timely transfer is the wisest choice!

"The third sentry, rearrange the formation, still the same

It's still the spear, the sword and shield in front, and the firecracker behind. Everyone stick to their positions and don't chase the fleeing enemies! "

Seeing that the powerful enemy finally escaped, Qin Gu couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief! In the battle just now, although our own side had an absolute advantage in firepower, there was nothing we could do against the Eight Banners Armored Soldiers under the command of little Belgurmahun. They killed only a dozen enemy soldiers, and the price they paid was actually the enemy. Twice that of the Eight Banners. If the Eight Banners refused to retreat, they would be able to completely defeat these people on our side with just one more force! You know, this is not a game, and the guards, regular flag troops, and reserve soldiers are not computer-programmed NPCs. Once the situation is unfavorable, they may collapse or surrender! Therefore, listening to the constant and mighty shouts of victory from the flag troops around him, Qin Gu secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then ordered them not to pursue, but to guard their positions and provide fire support to the main force!
