Chongzhen Undergraduates

"Bang bang bang..." Jin Bing's firecrackers also began to fight back, and their firepower was continuous.

The current war is basically equivalent to many people's favorite platoon shooting.But Zhu Youjian didn't feel any blood swelling except for a breath of death.

Just when the smoke of gunpowder enveloped an area of ​​the frontal battlefield, a few Jin soldiers would find that a large number of cannons were rapidly gathering on the empty Ming army position ahead.

It's a pity that this scene was completely invisible to the generals of the Jin soldiers behind.The cannons of the Ming army seem to be very light in weight, and the first few rows of cannons are actually carried into the battlefield by soldiers on their shoulders.

By the time Kong Youde knew that the opponent had still kept such a trick, the Ming army's three rows of scattered and orderly artillery formations had formed.

"Oh my God! Well, there are a lot of cannons." A golden soldier just walked out of the smoke area, and was immediately frightened by the scene in front of him.

When the first row of cannons of the Ming Army artillery array fired, the third row of cannons had not yet been deployed.

"Boom boom boom..." After a series of loud noises, the black projectile passed over the top of the chariot formation and directly hit the middle of the golden soldiers' formation.The ricochet plowed countless blood grooves in the formation of the Heavenly Help Army.The results would have been appalling had it not been for the softness of the southern plains.

"Quick, rush up." Kong Youde also saw clearly, he didn't think about why Zhu Youjian's cavalry suddenly appeared with so many cannons, but thought about breaking the formation first.

"Kill!" The Tianzhu Army ran towards the front of the Ming army desperately, and they had to use the gap filled by the cannon to charge a longer distance.

Before running a few steps, with the sound of a whistle, the second row of cannons of the Ming army rang.There were countless blood slots again, and the Jin Bing's attack immediately relaxed a lot.

"Pass down the order and give up the car formation." Li Dingguo stood on the hillside, everything on the battlefield in front of him was under his control.

With the sound of the bugle, the soldiers of the Ming army in the car formation evacuated from the car formation.This represents the golden soldiers won the first round of victory.

"Kill!" Kong Youde was happy. He hoped that his subordinates could seize the chariot formation, and then rely on those battlefields to continue attacking the artillery formation of the Ming army.

"First row, salvo. Get ready, let go!" Amidst the noisy voice, another whistle sounded, and the third row of cannons was finally set up. The first time they roared was the scatter cannon, and it was still a salvo.

The Tianzhujun, who thought they were about to rush to the front of the car formation, fell back collectively against the artillery fire, and then were torn into pieces.

Before the Jin soldiers charged, a cloud of blood suddenly burst out, like a piece of pesticide sprayed by an airplane.

Then the blood mist had just formed, and the Ming army's first row of cannons also fired a burst of scattered salvos.The two clouds of blood mist were superimposed to form a blood rain.

Just when a gust of wind blew by, Kong Youde's face met the tail of the rain of blood.

"My lord, your face is red." Kong Youde's soldiers looked at Kong Youde in horror, and Kong Youde also saw the faces of the soldiers.

"Withdraw!" Kong Youde was terrified, thinking carefully.Kong Youde couldn't figure out how many cannons were needed to produce the effects of blood mist and blood rain.

What Li Dingguo can help him answer is that the Ming army has 360 artillery positions in this battle alone.If every 120 cannons fire at the same time, each cannon fires [-] small iron pellets, and a volley fires, the golden soldiers need to withstand [-] bullets.

Sufficiently dense formation, sufficiently dense firepower, bursting out in an instant, is such an effect.

Kong Youde ran up to Nikan with a blood-red and terrifying face, and he didn't even dare to look back at the dismembered corpses in front of the camp.

"Master, the servants are almost dead, woo..." Kong Youde cried.The nearly [-] elite men under him would not die like this, but it is true that the casualties were a bit heavy.

Seeing Kong Youde's blood-red face, Ni Kan couldn't blame him, after all, the Heavenly Help Army did its best.

"Okay, I got it. How about this, Cheng Ni, you can go for a while next time!" Ni Kan was too lazy to listen to Kong Youde's rambling, he had other things to worry about.

Although encircling and annihilating the Ming emperor is a major event, Ni Kan is still the coach after all, and he also needs to think about it comprehensively.Because he went north ahead of schedule, Hauge behind him didn't keep up.

Two days have passed. It stands to reason that Hauge's striker should be able to reach Dingyuan, but he hasn't arrived for a long time.At the same time, Nikan still needs to send people to continue northward, at least to be able to communicate with Azig's department, otherwise his food and grass will have problems.

After Nikan thought it over, he decided to send 2 people from each side in the north and south, each going a hundred miles forward.Especially in the north, we must first ensure the smooth flow of the two roads.

Speaking of which, Cheng Ni led the cavalry of the Han Army Banner, but his combat power was not good, and he was not as good as the Guan Ning Army. Under normal circumstances, he was in the role of maintaining law and order.

Nikan sent Cheng Ni to the battle to see if he could rely on the cavalry to take down the artillery formation of the Ming army.The so-called artillery is afraid of cavalry because the cavalry is fast enough to reach the artillery position with a single charge.

Cheng Ni looked at the battle formation in front of him, but couldn't figure it out at all. He knew that he was weak, and his troops might not be able to catch up with the Heavenly Help Army.

Then Cheng Ni tried to attack a few times, and then found a reason to drag the time until dark.

The first day of the battle passed like this, and the two sides made a trial, and Jin Bing suffered a small loss.However, the Ming army did not take much advantage. The Ming army exposed the existence of artillery, which made Ni Kan start to guess how many reinforcements the Ming army came.

Kong Youde looked at the corpses still lying in front of the position, he felt very bad.He recalled the process of fighting during the day, and found that the Ming army not only had so many cannons, but also an important manifestation, that is, the Ming army seemed too calm.

The army, which has been clearly at a disadvantage, shouldn't be so calm, but looks at the golden soldiers coldly.

Could it be that the main force of the Ming army has arrived on the battlefield?

Chapter 399: Surrounding the Points for Aid

It's hard to kill enemies when they're piled together, either they start to spread out a little bit, or they fall into the trap all at once.

If you just gather and don't move, this battle will not be easy to fight.It is not a qualified commander to kill [-] enemies and lose [-].

In the first battle, Ni Kan only used three points of strength, so Li Dingguo naturally didn't need to show his hole cards.However, the problems encountered by Jin Bing began to appear, so Nikan sent two armies to explore the way north and south in the early morning of the second day.But his main force camped still, almost staring at the Ming army.

From Dingyuan to the west is Huainan, and then north across the Huaihe River is the scheduled meeting place with Azig.

The [-] soldiers of Jin Bing left very early, and they were not far from Huainan after traveling at full speed for half a day.

In the distance, Beizi Zakana, the leader of Jin Junzuo, saw a wall blocking the front, as if it had just emerged from the ground.Taking a closer look, Zakana took a deep breath, and there was a formation of carriages on the opposite side.

If the Dingyuan battalion had a way to deal with the Ming army's chariot formation, then the partial division led by Zakana did not have such combat power. They were just ordinary infantry equipped with mounts.Their mission is to find the way, not to fight.

"Send someone back to report the news. The road ahead is blocked by the Ming army. The others rush for me." Zakana saw the car formation on the opposite side and he already understood that the Ming army had set up a trap.

"Kill!" Although these golden soldiers were not real cavalry, they still hoped to rely on horse speed to attack the Ming army's chariot formation in the first battle.

"Snipers step forward, line up!"

"Shhhhh!"

On the car formation, the white-armed soldiers equipped by the Sichuan Army immediately raised their spears, and the guns were placed on the car like a forest and leaned forward.

"One grenadier, ready." The grenadier of the Ming army also followed closely behind the spearman.

"Beep beep..." A crisp whistle sounded, and it was not the firecrackers who launched the counterattack first, but the grenadiers.A large group of black grenades flew towards the front of the car formation, fell to the ground and smoked.

At this time, Jin Bing's cavalry arrived on top of the smoking grenade.These golden soldiers probably knew what was under their feet, but they couldn't hold back their horses anymore.

"Boom boom boom..." 30 meters away from the front of the entire car formation, a large explosion immediately rang out, and the Jin soldiers fell to the ground, and most of the Jin soldiers rushing from behind couldn't dodge.

The horse trampled on the man, and the man trampled on the horse to form a wall.Scattered golden soldiers rushed to the front of the chariot formation, not enough for the spearmen of the Ming army to stab blood holes.

"Beep beep..." A whistle sounded, and another round of grenades flew out. After a few breaths, those who barely stood up fell down again.

Seeing this, Zakana shook his body.Before the Ming army's chariots broke away, the corpses of their own troops had piled up a line of defense for the Ming army.

During this back and forth time, the Ming army has sent troops to surround the Jin soldiers from several other directions.This cannot be blamed on the cunning of the Ming army. It can only be said that Zakana underestimated the enemy. He never thought that the Ming army would have an ambush here.

This road was still transporting grain and grass to Dingyuan a day ago, so Zakana was so careless that he didn't even send a horse to explore.
