Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 908 This is unreasonable

Because when the warships of the Mughal Empire were in a mess, they were not far from the warships of the Ming army.

At this time, during the time when the artillery positions were transferred, the military formations of the Mughal Empire also changed.The cavalry cannot attack the city, so the light infantry and war elephant army are the main force to attack the city.

Aurangzeb mobilized elite light infantry and a hundred war elephants to the south wall, trying to let his elite be able to attack the city in one go after the Dutch artillery blasted the wall!

It took the Mughal Empire army an hour to adjust before the battle. In addition to the consumption of the previous water battle, it was already past noon.

At this time, the sun was high in the sky, and the temperature in Bagalpur had reached more than 30 degrees. The soldiers of the Mughal Empire who were wearing equipment were hungry and hot.

In the past, I thought that the water battle was foolproof. Aurangzeb gathered the whole army to surround Bagalpur, let them all see the brilliant victory of the water battle and boost their morale so that they could beat Bagalpur in one go.

Unexpectedly, the water battle was defeated, and the whole army witnessed it together.For this reason, Aurangzeb did not want them to return to the camp to rest and fight another day, otherwise the failure of the water battle would continue to expand its impact.Must continue to attack, win at least one game.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, this temperature is no longer suitable for war.However, Aurangzeb did not mean to withdraw his troops back to camp.

However, it is true that the whole army cannot fight together in a siege battle.

In the end, the east and west sides of Bagalpur were not suitable for the two sides of the siege, and Aurangzeb only left a few thousand people to support the siege, while the other troops ate before the formation.

Of course, Aurangzeb also knew that it was not a good thing for the army to be hungry in hot weather.For this reason, he issued an order to urge the siege battle to start earlier.

The morale of the Mughal Empire army was inevitably re-affected.However, the expectation of victory still supports them to overcome difficulties and wait for the attack.

As for the Ming army, except for the soldiers on duty at the top of the city, who were staring at the movement of the Mughal Empire army outside the city, the other soldiers were eating and resting in the city, and by the way, talking about the water battle just now, Laugh at the incompetence of the Mughal army.

The morale of both sides is naturally not the same.

On the top of the city, Mu Tianbo observed the enemy's movements with binoculars, but no military order was passed down.Because the Ming army had expected the enemy's siege battle for a long time, and was not surprised by the movements of the Mughals.The preparations that should be done have already been done.

On the south side of the city, the number of artillery pieces is the largest, and various places outside the city have also been marked with artillery pieces in advance.The next thing to do is to give the enemies outside the city a "surprise"!

Finally, the Mughal Empire army, sweating profusely, basically completed the siege deployment.The artillery positions of the Dutch are also ready, waiting for the emperor of the Mughal Empire to launch an attack on the city.

But who knows, before Aurangzeb's order was issued, a deafening voice sounded first from the city of Bagalpur.

"Boom boom boom..."

At the same time, it was very pleasing to the eye to see gunpowder smoke rising in an orderly manner from the southern city of Bagalpur.

However, this pleasing to the eye is only for the Ming army, and it is simply doomsday for the Mughal Empire army, especially the Dutch artillery.

The heavy artillery of the Ming army is all rifled, and its range is much longer than that of the Dutch heavy artillery.Therefore, the artillery positions set up by the Dutch were completely covered by the artillery of the Ming army, and because the rifled artillery itself had high shooting accuracy, and the artillery had been marked in advance, the parameters were all ready-made.

It was just the first round of shelling, and there was no need to test the guns at all. All the iron bullets whizzing away hit the Dutch artillery positions, and then ejected, plowing out bloody trenches, or hitting the Dutch artillery, the human body, and the ammunition up, very spectacular.

The Dutch artillery fell apart, the human body was torn apart, and the ammunition was scattered all over the place...

All the Mughals who heard the sound and looked over were all dumbfounded. This was another unbelievable scene for them!
How did the artillery of the Ming Dynasty hit so far and still be so accurate?
This makes no sense!
"Boom boom boom..."

The artillery on the top of the city continued to roar, and the iron bullets continued to roar out, still hitting the Dutch artillery positions accurately.

In just a short while, the Dutch artillery positions were in a mess.Most of the Dutch did not expect to encounter such an attack and died on the ground.Those who are still alive, those with short arms and short legs, are crying for their father and mother.

Obviously, the Dutch artillery positions were completely destroyed after being bombarded by the Ming army for several rounds.

Afterwards, the artillery of the Ming army began to shift the bombardment point and landed on the place where the war elephants were concentrated.

"Boom boom boom..."

The elephant soldiers of the Mughal Empire were waiting for the Dutch to bombard them before charging towards Bagalpur. One can imagine.

Although their war elephants are all well-trained, and they are all covered with thick armor, but no matter how thick the armor is, how can it withstand the impact of iron bullets? Big, when iron bullets hit, war elephants are the most vulnerable.

Disembowelment, broken legs and smashed heads, etc., just happened in a flash.

Although the war elephants have been trained and will not panic when they hear the sound of huge artillery, but looking at the miserable conditions of other war elephants, how can those war elephants that have not been injured stay in place.

When the uninjured elephants lost control due to panic, the Mughal Empire light infantry near the elephant team suffered!

Crazed war elephant, it will recognize who you are, anyway, step on anyone who stands in the way!For a moment, where the elephant's hoof stepped, it was bloody and bloody. The soldiers of the Mughal Empire saw the elephant rushing towards them, so they fled immediately, regardless of military discipline.

Therefore, when the elephants go crazy, it looks good, and chaos is the theme that should be there.

It has to be said that the war elephant is powerful when used, but if it is not used well and it causes damage on its own side, it is also powerful.

These crazy ones are still war elephants, wearing armor, and ordinary knives and guns are useless.Dozens of war elephants ran wildly, and the number of casualties was far more than that caused by the artillery.

Aurangzeb looked at this scene, his face was very wonderful, it changed from moment to moment, it was very ugly with uncertain weather.

But Kui Yi, who was standing beside him, looked at the top of Bagalpur city in a daze, and was still on the part of the city wall that was smoking gunpowder, muttering to himself: "How could this happen, how could it be possible to fight like this?" Far, and there is no deviation, how heavy is this artillery? This is impossible..."

The poor Dutchman rebelled early, and he hasn't seen the Shenwei series in the Ming army.Otherwise, it is estimated that they would not dare to go out with the army.Thinking of ways again, I secretly bought blueprints.

At this time, the five hundred gunners of the Dutch basically lost more than half, and the remaining artillerymen who escaped were all scared to pee.

As for those heavy artillery, they must be useless.

Hearing the movement, Aurangzeb turned his head to look at Kui Yi who was in a daze, and then turned his head to look into the distance with a gloomy expression.

At this time, or the elephant was exhausted, and was finally controlled by the elephant soldiers.However, behind the war elephant, it was really a mess, with heavy casualties.

Especially those wounded soldiers who did not die were crying and wailing one by one, which made the soldiers of the Mughal Empire feel sad.

The Ming army is fine and didn't spend much energy at all, but the imperial army has already suffered heavy losses!

What they saw and heard that day made the Mughal Empire army finally have a doubt: Can the Ming army in Bagalpur really defeat them with its superiority in strength?

At this moment, he turned his head and looked at the surface of the Ganges River. The warships that had been burned before had almost been burned.On the river, only the warships of the Ming army remained.

All this seems to be a dream, a nightmare for the Mughals!
On the hillside, Aurangzeb got angry and shouted to the sky: "I don't believe it, my army of one million will trample little Bagalpur!"

What he needs is a big victory to maintain his authority in leading troops.Otherwise, who knows what monsters his two older brothers would do!

So, he immediately decreed that even if there was no artillery, he would still attack Bagalpur.

The troops whose names are called will immediately attack the city, and those who are not named, let them eat something to prepare for the next wave of attack.

He didn't believe it anymore, and used wheel warfare to attack, exhausting, and exhausting these damn Ming troops!
The light infantry of the Mughal Empire was the least valuable and the least valued. They were like cannon fodder. After receiving the military order, they had no choice but to obey the general's arrangement and prepare to attack the city.

The north of Bhagalpur is the Ganges River, and the east and west will be bombarded by the artillery of the Ming army. Therefore, although the siege troops are arranged here, they are only for diversion and the number is not large.

Only here in the south, densely packed, all the troops of the Mughal Empire, soldiers with long-range weapons, attacked the city first, and shot to cover the subsequent infantry attack.

As an important siege weapon, war elephants have learned their lesson this time, and sparsely, there will be no more frightened war elephants running wildly in groups.

Under the military order, individuals seem a bit insignificant in such a large-scale battle.Whether it is fear or worry, or fear, they must be carried forward by the army.

The usual supervisory team also showed a big sword behind the attacking army, performing the duty of supervisory battle.Anyone who dares to retreat privately, beheaded!
Some local cavalry troops galloped on the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity to advance on the two wings of the light infantry attack, and cooperated with the light infantry to attack the city.

The sound of the whining horn once again echoed over Bagalpur.
