Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 303
Since there is no sun today, it is not known whether the sun will come out from the west, but it is absolutely true that the Xianghong flag is scrambling to escape here.Just as the sentry cavalry said, the formation of the red flags was scattered and panicked, as if ten thousand wolves were chasing them.In the distance, a black wave is spreading across the horizon and approaching here. Whenever the black wave approaches a step, the red flag will flee faster. Such a strange scene is really surprising. The two sides of the Daling River are The bloody Ming army and the Hou Jin army couldn't help but stop fighting, and looked at the red flag, wanting to see what was going on.

Dorgon rode his horse out of the battle, drew out his saber, and shouted sharply: "The defeated soldiers stop, and those who disturb our army will die!"

More than 2000 archers with two white flags raised their bows and set arrows, pointed at the fleeing soldiers with red flags, and shouted in unison: "Whoever disturbs our army will die!"

Fortunately, even though Xianghongqi was beaten out of his body, he still had a semblance of reason at last, knowing that if he rushed straight over to disrupt the formation of the two white flags and the Wuyang Guards took advantage of the momentum to kill them, the south bank of the Daling River might be changed. It became a sea of ​​blood, and they bypassed the army one after another. Although they caused some confusion, they did not disrupt the two white flags as Yang Menglong wished.

Hou Jin Qiang Bing, well-deserved reputation.

Cao Bianjiao looked towards the south bank, and saw the Houjin man neighing and the flags scattered, he was very surprised: "What the hell is Jiannu doing?"

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Wuyang Guard is here!"

Cao Bianjiao's eyes lit up immediately, and he said excitedly, "Great, we are finally saved!"

Lu Xiangsheng was not so optimistic.Wuyangwei is certainly an elite, but Houjin has two elites in the south bank, and when their few people come, they are also delivering food to others.However, having a supporting army is better than nothing, at least it can boost morale and create a good opportunity for the Tianxiong army to break through.He ordered the army to be ready, once the Wuyang Guards disrupted the two white flags on the south bank, they would immediately break through with all their strength, and count as much as they could get out.

Huang Taiji's eyelids began to beat wildly again when he saw the red flag running towards him like a bereaved dog.This battle has been testing his heart. He was shocked when Zhenglan Banner was defeated by the Tianxiong Army. The Ming Army attacked frantically regardless of the cost. He was shocked again when they broke through the thin ice and crossed the Daling River. He was shocked when the two yellow flags and the Zhenglan flag were defeated step by step under the crazy attack of the Ming army. Now the battle situation has begun to become clearer. The tiger was trapped, but at this juncture, the red flag was placed on it and it ran over like a lost dog. , his heart was twitching, and he almost went crazy——What accident happened again?He decided to go and have a look in person. With a wave of his hand, he led two hundred soldiers across the river and came to the front of the two armies. He glared at the panicked soldiers with red flags and said in a stern voice: "I'm not asking you to attack the Ming army camp and cut it off." Did the Ming army retreat? Why did they come back? Where is Yue Tuo? Let him come out to see me!"

No one dared to look directly at King Khan, and all the generals inlaid with red flags lowered their heads in shame.Yue Tuoqiang rallied his horse forward, got off the saddle and knelt down on the ground, his voice was weak: "See King Khan..."

Yue Tuo's current appearance surprised Huang Taiji again.The flag owner had a small broken arrow stuck in his golden helmet, his forehead was full of blood, and a crossbow bolt was stuck in his arm. His face was blue, obviously poisoned. Seeing that Ai Jiang was in such a state of embarrassment, Huang Taiji The anger couldn't help dissipating, and turned into shock: "Yue Tuo, what's wrong with you!?"

Yue Tuo's eyes turned black, his body swayed, he tried his best to open his eyelids, and said: "Ming army...there is another reinforcement coming, it's the black-clothed flying army...the slaves led the troops to intercept... Killed, defeated by them! They have extremely powerful bows and crossbows, which can pierce through any armor within sixty steps. Many spears, extremely ferocious, our cavalry were easily defeated by them. They...they..." At this point, Yue Tuo could hardly hold on anymore, but a wave of faith supported him, and he barely said what he said. I think the most important point: "They are also equipped with a terrible cannon, which is so big that it can smash people and horses within thirty steps! King Khan, little... be careful, they are really... very strong... "After finishing speaking, white foam came out of the corner of his mouth, and he fell forward, dying.In order to solve the problem of insufficient lethality, the crossbows used by Lancers generally have tiger medicine quenched on the arrowheads. This thing is necessary for mountain hunters to shoot tigers with crossbows. The tiger's skin is extremely tough. The crossbow shot by the ground crossbow is difficult to go deep after it penetrates the tiger's skin, severely injuring the tiger's internal organs and killing it, but the tiger medicine quenched on the arrowhead can kill the tiger with only a little skin trauma. Tigers are like this, let alone people?It is already a miracle that Yue Tuo can survive till now.

Huang Taiji called: "Come here, take him down quickly and give him a good treatment!"

Immediately, several people came up and carried Yuetuo down.Yue Tuo was covered in blood and foaming at the mouth, which shocked everyone. Since the late Jin Dynasty, there has never been a banner owner who has suffered such serious injuries on the battlefield!
It seems that this Ming army is really coming from bad people!

The black wave spread across the horizon and approached rapidly.Now without clairvoyance, everyone can clearly see the dignity of this Ming army: this army is uniformly black armored, and there are more than a hundred fierce sentry cavalry in the front. The riding skills of Mongolian knights; there are hundreds of cavalrymen holding long spears behind them. The length of the spears in their hands is close to five meters. The strong crossbow cavalry, the strong crossbow has been opened, and it can be fired just by loading the crossbow arrows; behind it is a large moving steel forest, this is the pikeman, the figure of the crossbowman has been covered by the forest of long spears Living.One hundred hoplites rode tall camels, and they looked like oversized iron cans, but the blood-stained giant ax told everyone that these iron cans were not fun at all, and they underestimated them. The consequence would be to be chopped into pieces by them!

By the way, there are five thousand Guanning troops following behind——yes, counting all the civilians accompanying the army, it is indeed five thousand, and the strength of the entire support army is nearly ten thousand, which looks extremely terrifying.Of course, if the eight cannons pulled by eight horses are also included, the momentum will be even more terrifying.In fact, when seeing these eight big guys, Hou Jin Dajun was all dumbfounded, even Huang Taiji was dizzy for a while, his tongue stuck out, his ears were buzzing, and his only thought was: "This... What kind of ghost cannon is this!?"

This is of course not a ghost cannon, this is the famous heartless cannon.After Wuyang opened the guard, Qi Hu once proposed to manufacture tiger squatting guns as the standard equipment of the army. Yang Menglong also supported it. He allocated a sum of money to build two guns for testing, but the test results disappointed Yang Menglong: the range was less than 160 meters. The effective range is pitifully short!He curled his lips: "How can you retaliate against society with such a small caliber?" He took out the heartless cannon he had used in the battle of Dingxing.Qi Hu was very interested in this, and asked the craftsmen to imitate it, and finally made a batch of iron drums that were about the same size as gasoline drums. born.This thing has no technical content, it is a relatively strong iron barrel that can withstand a certain degree of explosion impact. The specific method of use is to first point the muzzle at the enemy-this is very important, don't do it Wrong——then put a bag of powdered black powder, this bag of black powder is relatively loose, which greatly reduces its explosive power, and then put in a bag of granular gunpowder weighing twenty catties, a little darker If so, you can tie a pack of iron nails to the explosive pack, put powdered black gunpowder on fire when you use it, then put in granular gunpowder that is tied like a flatbread, and then run away.It is not a perfect weapon, the iron barrel will be useless after a few times of use, and the accuracy is very poor, worse than the front-mounted smoothbore gun, at least the front-loaded smoothbore gun can point and shoot within a certain distance, And it is not accurate at any time, where it hits depends entirely on character.However, it is the most terrifying long-range attack weapon in this era, with a range of 300 meters and a killing radius of 25 meters, which makes any artillery dwarf.Among other things, the terrifying caliber alone is enough to scare the opponent.No, as soon as the unconscionable cannon was fired, even Huang Taiji felt bursts of urine...

A group of cavalry archers rushed up to try to harass them, but the artillery immediately aimed their unconscionable cannons at them, scaring the cavalry archers to run away.Yang Menglong looked at the piles of corpses in front of him, the burning chariots in the Ming army battalion, and the Ming army battle flag looming in the billowing smoke, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank God, it's not too late!"

Qi Hu was also relieved: "The main force of our army is still there, thank God!"

General Jin and General Hu looked at the battlefield full of corpses and the boundless army of post-gold, feeling terrified for a while, and regretted why they couldn't stand the provocation. They were enraged by Yang Menglong's words "no eggs", so they led the troops rashly. Going crazy with this crazy guy.Hey, this is an army of [-] to [-] queens, a destructive force, their little people are not enough to put someone's teeth between them!The two generals leaned forward and said to Yang Menglong: "Well... Commander Yang, the Jiannu army is extremely strong. Even if we all die here, we can't bite them. I think we should be more cautious and don't rush. act!"

Yang Menglong rolled his eyes: "Be cautious? Is this the time to be cautious? As long as we dare to take a half step back, these tens of thousands of Jian slaves will immediately press up like an avalanche and tsunami, and they will not dip in soy sauce, and they will kill us alive with one bite." Believe it or not?"

The two generals pursed their lips, looking like they were about to cry: "Then what do you say?"

Yang Menglong said: "First bombard them with cannons for a few rounds, then the cavalry will charge, and the infantry will follow up and slaughter them. Do we have to teach this?"

General Jin and General Hu took a look at the "cannons" with unimaginably large diameters and unimaginably thinner walls, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, skeptical about whether these things were reliable.

In fact, this thing is still more reliable than the little boy in front of them...
