Lord of Ming Dynasty

There is also a small team of soldiers and horses from the punishment battalion staying here. These soldiers and horses are the supervisors of some former Ming and green camp captive soldiers who were naturalized because of their good performance. , Now it is no longer called Baihu Company, it is directly called the company, and the team leader is called the company commander and the rank of captain. They are the troops in charge of the punishment battalion of the Shandong garrison brigade after the reorganization.

Since the reform of military ranks and official positions, the entire Huaxia Army has abandoned the complicated official position and rank system of the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, and directly used the military establishment and military ranks of later generations.

It made the messy military ranks and official positions of the Huaxia Kingdom uniform, and the official system became unified, otherwise many people would not be able to tell them apart.

After explaining some precautions, the cavalry battalion commander left with his battalion, and he had to welcome new captive soldiers and servant soldiers.

These people arrived one day first, and he had already been busy for a whole day. The return captives from Shanxi-Gansu Prefecture, other miscellaneous prisoners from those ethnicities who did not belong to the Han nationality, and all kinds of horse bandits and bandits captured in Shanxi-Gansu Prefecture , squires, bullies, officials, servants, all have more than [-].

During this day, the cavalry brigade was busy mobilizing, encircling the capital city of Baoding Prefecture, clearing out areas in the countryside that had not been cleared, choosing a breakthrough point, deploying troops, and dispatching manpower to meet the captives and servants sent from the rear.

The servant army can be used directly. After all, they are not prisoners and can share the responsibility of guarding and guarding the prisoners. The prisoners have to arrange manpower to guard and guide them.

In the evening, the cavalry battalion of the No.16 Field Division arrived, and they had more manpower. A group of Japanese prisoners also arrived, and they were captured from Shanxi Prefecture.

At night, before the cavalry brigade could react, their positions to the north were attacked.

I don’t know how many people there were in the darkness, but there were shouts everywhere. The soldiers of the cavalry companies guarding the three castles had to throw out their torches. Running towards them with the ladder.

"Fight," the cavalry company commander shouted, and the barrage of guns on the city wall resounded through the night sky.

In the fierce flames, many people were hit, but they still couldn't stop their progress. There were too many people.

There are still 50 meters away, "Fire, fire, pull our guns up." The cavalry company commander shouted.

Only a hundred or so catties of three-pound guns were pushed onto the crenel, with the barrels facing downwards, loaded with shotguns, the guns rang, and a large part of the charging crowd was swept away, but there were still many people behind, crowded Those who rush forward, even if those in front don't want to rush and are afraid, the people behind are still rushing forward.

Soon the three three-pound guns of the cavalry company on the big castle fired a volley, but it still couldn't stop those people from swarming forward, "Pull up the six-pound guns and shoot together."

This cavalry company has only four cannons in total, and the four cannons were strengthened together to the cavalry company to guard the fortress, but they still couldn't stop the charge of the Qing army. They had to use more three-pound cannons and Six-pounders, and even ten-pounders, more than half of the cavalry company was devoted to the artillery, and twelve guns fired together, clearing a large area, but the enemy was getting closer and closer.

"Is it over yet?" The cavalry company commander shouted angrily. He looked up at the other two big forts, where the fighting was in full swing. The Qing army decided to take down these three big forts, otherwise they would not be able to guarantee them The escape route is safe, or if they want to escape, they will not be able to escape without opening this area. The three big fortresses are built in the bumps of the three hills. Climbing the hills is too slow, and they can escape only after passing the big fortress.

The enemy rushed to the big fort to the west of us, and the two sides fought hand-to-hand.

Gunshots rang out from the big fort to the east. It seemed that the enemy still had musketeers following them, possibly Green Battalion soldiers.

The cavalry company commander saw that the big forts on the left and right were about to fall, and was very anxious, so he quickly dispatched cavalry to report the situation to the cavalry brigade.

Here, the enemy has set up a ladder, and many people have climbed up. They had to fight hand-to-hand. The swarming enemy occupied the artillery, and the artillery misfired one by one. The cavalry company fell into a panic. In a few hours, the enemy opened the gate on the other side, and a large number of soldiers and horses fled to the distance through the gate.

Under the dense firepower, the enemy still rushed forward with heavy casualties.

At the most difficult time, the sound of hooves shook the whole earth, and the enemy who had just rushed out of the city gate and ran not far ran back, and countless cavalry behind them held torches, and some cavalry shot on their horses, like a wind blowing away. came galloping.

Amidst the neat rows of gunfire, the enemy fell down one by one. Half an hour later, the big fort in the middle was captured by the cavalry battalion, and the enemy retreated.

But the big forts on both sides were captured by the enemy.

Hu Ze led a regiment of cavalry to fight in the middle of the night and failed to take down a cavalry battalion of cavalry. The enemy replaced the Manchu soldiers and the green battalion to defend the two big forts. The cavalry brigade retreated a mile to build fortifications. A cavalry battalion was stationed in the big castle in the middle, and the original cavalry company had been disabled.

On the hilly ground to the south of their city gate, there were nearly a thousand people in the city lying. In the castle, there were thousands of corpses of the landlords and gentry in the city. There was also a small group of Qing cavalry corpses in front of the city gate.

In half an hour, they had just regained their positions and built some fortifications. The enemy's attack began to engulf the people again. Nearly a few thousand green battalion soldiers rushed towards the positions defended by the cavalry brigade and the big fort.

Crackling gunshots, loud cannons, and endless fighting all night. The enemy killed and injured tens of thousands of people. The cavalry brigade side seriously injured a cavalry regiment. At dawn, Hu Ze transferred the cavalry battalion of the No.16 field division. At the same time, thousands of soldiers and horses from the punishment battalion were transferred to defend the position, and the soldiers and horses from the cavalry brigade withdrew back.

After resting for half a day, he mobilized 2 captives from various ethnic groups in Shanxi-Gansu Prefecture to build fortifications in and around the fort, and each of them threw a captured cold weapon to them. Give them matchlock guns and gold 16 muskets, let them watch these people defend the big fort, and withdraw the cavalry battalion of the No. [-] Field Division to the rear to build a fortification connecting the other two big forts.

He understood that the Qing army wanted to use these common people and green battalion soldiers to open a way for them to escape.

Chapter 889 Flesh Mill 2

"Every nation will always fight back desperately at the most perilous moment, but our nation always has hope for survival, and always hopes that they are the one who survived by chance, so they are always insensitive at the last moment, Watching others go through fire and water, fight life and death, and then they steal the final victory behind their backs, and slander other people's blood and sweat as absurd, slandering that they want to seize power but harm the so-called them, the people."

Zhang Qiang doesn't know who said it, and he can't remember who said it, but he knows that the Manchus still resisted. Today's Manchus have not become weak after 300 years of corrosion, or just When wanting to keep their own rights and a rich life, Hu Kui forwarded the report to Hu Kui, and the Manchus learned from their method and drove all the people out of the city, and then stepped on The corpses of [-] to [-] people were used to open the way for them with the charge of the green battalion soldiers. The war was very fierce, and even the [-] captives and servants who arrived earlier were not enough to consume. The cavalry brigade lost a regiment, and the punishment battalion went up later The brigade lost a squadron before it could barely resist the enemy's crazy breakout operation.

On January 1670, 16, in the cold wind, the No.5 Field Division arrived late. There were already about [-] prisoners and [-] servants here. After a complete cavalry regiment helped them, they also withdrew to Cangzhou Prefecture to rest.

"Leaded by Zhao Hu, the first field division, aiming at Yanjing,"

"The third field division Wang moved to Tianjin. The First Fleet will deploy old-fashioned warships and warship units, as well as a marine brigade to cooperate with the attack."

"The No.16 field division, Dongfeng Po, captured Baoding Mansion, and continued to attack, bypassing Yanjing's target Shanhaiguan."

This is what Dongfeng Po knew after receiving Hu Kui's order. Their No.16 Field Division has a very heavy task. They must take Baoding Mansion before No.15, and then attack forward to defeat the enemy before the No.[-] Field Division Detour to the rear of Yanjing to deploy, and after the first field division arrives, attack Shanhaiguan and cut off the enemy's retreat.

After taking over the battlefield, Dongfeng Po ordered to send [-] Japanese civilians to the front line to clean up the battlefield, [-] Southeast Asian natives to defend the three forts on the battlefield, and [-] captives from the Qing army in Shanxi-Gansu Prefecture to defend the fortifications behind the battlefield, and then stationed behind these people A Japanese servant army and a Chinese army field regiment.

Then he began to inspect the battlefield. He only had a few days to spare. He hoped to take down Baoding Mansion tonight, and lead the troops forward tomorrow. The First Field Division is the elite of the elite, and Zhao Hu is also a veteran, so he must move quickly. He could not delay.

There is nothing to say on the battlefield. Either let your soldiers and horses smash their heads in front of the enemy's fortifications, or give the enemy hope, let the enemy break through from the breakthrough they selected, and let the enemy bleed a little bit. Annihilate the enemy.

But time waits for no one.

"Let the Artillery Brigade get ready to bombard the enemy's forward positions, and let the rest of the people and captive soldiers of the mixed ethnic groups in Shaanxi and Ganzhou charge me to attack the enemy's strongest frontal line of defense. The Japanese people behind are on top, and the Japanese behind them Servant army top, your task is to watch these people run out, go."

Field divisions have specially equipped artillery brigades.

The artillery brigade has heavy artillery dedicated to siege, most of which are big guys with a 24-pound caliber.

Just like the siege cannons that smashed buildings in the Age of Empires, they moved slowly and heavy, but demolished buildings quickly and efficiently.

When the 24-pound gun was fired, the Qing army in the city became even more flustered. They organized troops to break through again, and more people were organized. While agitating and talking about the pure Han policy of the Huaxia Army, they drove them to continue to rush towards the city. fortress.

Behind them are the young and strong defenders drawn from the city, and behind them are the green battalion soldiers carrying guns and pushing cannons.

"Fight," those miscellaneous ethnic groups living in the fringes of Ming Dynasty don't know what is common people, they know that if they don't destroy the current enemy, then they will be killed, and they have no friends, relatives, brothers and officers on the battlefield , only enemies and allies.

They shot with bows and arrows, shotguns, Jin Kai 1 matchlock guns, cannons left by the Qing army, and some people didn't know where the short-fired guns dropped by the cavalry company were dug out from that corner.

"Why don't you use soldiers and let them kill each other?" A new recruit asked the veteran next to him.

The veteran laughed and said, "We don't have enough food. If we keep them, we will starve too. Why don't we let them contribute to us? Anyway, they ate so much food from us."

While the two of them were talking, the battle ahead had become intense. Nearly [-] people collided, some inside the fort, and some in the newly built trenches outside the fort.

The trenches were almost filled with blood. After fighting for a whole day, the Qing army killed all the civilians. The troops drawn from various positions were all dead, and then sent a team of Qing soldiers. The warriors selected for the breakout finally occupied the three forts and cleared out the cannon fodder soldiers of the Huaxia Army on this line.

Thick corpses were densely piled up on the entire front, like shoveling snow in a snowy day, you have to move a road so that the people behind can pass, otherwise no one can stand firm if they step on the corpses.

The general then led the Manchu soldiers and horses to transfer to the central fortress, and the other troops continued to shrink. The green battalion soldiers and the Han army flag soldiers continued to defend the city and gave up some positions in other directions.

The frontal position is still in contention, the green battalion soldiers are all dead, the Han army flag, the Mongols, and the nearby people, in short, withstood the attack of the Huaxia army, and all the troops of the Huaxia army were watching the show leisurely around, dying All of them were captives. Fifty thousand of the captives besieged on all sides were killed, [-] were injured, and [-] were seriously injured.

But at dawn, the Huaxia Army urgently needed to drive them away and besiege the city and the fort.

This time it was time for the slave army to go, with some remaining captives in front and slave soldiers behind. The main force was the Japanese slave army and Southeast Asian slave army, as well as the Qing army servants in Shanxi, Gansu and Shanxi.
