Chapter 267: The sky is endless, my Liu Dadao
The 100 taels of military expenditure of the "Dongsen Xiuhu" was very timely, and the officers and soldiers were deeply encouraged and vowed to flatten the Hei Tuala!
.........
At Duanhe Valley, Daqi, the son of Eyidu, and his younger brother Han Dai, Ebilong was leading troops to attack the remnants of the Ming army in Hetan.
Daqi originally wanted to lead troops to Niumaoling because he had been obsessed with Liu Zhaosun, the son of Liu Jing. However, at this time, the two yellow flags of Jiahaling were transferred over, and 40,000 to 50,000 Eight Banners attacked from all directions of Niumaoling. The Ming army was tired of dealing with it, but there was no place for him to use Daqi, so he simply brought people to help his younger brother Han Dai solve the Ming army that was still resisting stubbornly.
When Daqi came, about 900 Zhejiang soldiers and more than 700 Jinzhou soldiers were trapped by Han Dai and others, and they relied on dozens of large chariots to fight back with guns.
The Han Dai had organized two offensives, but they were both repelled by the Ming army, which was also red-eyed. Especially the sudden sound of artillery fired in the Ming army formation shocked the attacking Eight Banners soldiers.
Han Dai had seen the Ming army's cannon called tiger squats. He knew that the cannon was hitting a squat, with a short range but a great lethality. Therefore, he was unwilling to lose too much, so he ordered Niu Lu to shoot the Ming army with bows and arrows. He was planning to wait until the overall situation of Niumaoling was determined, and the Ming army on the river beach lost hope and surrendered without fighting.
Under the command of Han Dai, the Eight Banners soldiers shot at the Ming army one after another. The arrow blocks on the chariot sounded "Dingdong". From time to time, the Ming army was caught in arrows, and the arrow branches splashed blood.
There are also the archers of the Eight Banners soldiers who can aim at the arrows with one glance and aim at them through the gaps in the Ming army's arrow block. These archers aim at officers with the help of moonlight, but cold arrows are unpredictable. Many Ming army officers have been shot in the arrows.
Shang Kejin was plotted and got an arrow in his right arm. Fortunately, the arrow passed directly through the flesh and blood, so he could still command the battle by simply bandaging.
However, this situation of being pressed by Jiannu with arrows is very depressing.
A gunner in the Zhejiang army felt that the arrow blocks inserted with arrows were affected by the gun being fired, so he pushed it away slightly to the north. However, before he could turn around, several sharp arrows immediately shot towards him. He was hit by an arrow on his left face, right chest and neck, and screamed and fell backwards.
The gunmen next to him saw that, who would dare to move the shield and carefully curled there. After loading the medicine, they had to observe it around and confirm that there was no danger after the emergence. Then they stood up and didn't look at it. They shot in front of them, and then quickly shrank down.
The speed is so fast that even the Jin army's archers are difficult to capture. Although this kind of gunfire is not effective in killing the Eight Banners soldiers, it also weakens the offensive of the Eight Banners soldiers, or dares not stand and shoot arrows so unscrupulously anymore.
"We have to see when these Ming troops can last!"
Han Dai was very satisfied with his subordinates' performance. If he continued to play this way, even if the Ming army did not surrender, they would probably collapse. But at this time, his eldest brother Da Qi, who was most afraid of, came over. Seeing that his younger brother led his troops to only dare to shoot from a distance but not attack, Da Qi was so angry that he would whip his younger brother.
"Ama's face will be thrown away for you!"
Daqi took over the command in anger and ordered Niu Luezhen to immediately organize troops to rush over the Ming army on the river beach.
"Brother, how many people will die?" Han Dai murmured.
Daqi snorted: "Ama's face is more important than many people!"
After hearing this, Han Dai did not dare to say anything. Ebilong supported his eldest brother Daqi on the side, because the fourth brother Han Dai's style of playing seemed to be insurance, which could reduce casualties, but it would make the war unable to be delayed for a long time. In the end, it would be possible that Er Beile would send troops again. In that case, not only would their brothers be embarrassed, but Ama's face was not good-looking.
The Eight Banners have always only valued warriors.
Niu Lue Zhenxilin, Qiji, Puhai and others were all numb after hearing Daqi's orders. Puhai said that there were tigers in the army, and they rushed forward to them and they were going to suffer a big loss.
"Roar! Rush up, no artillery from the Ming army works! I think you are just afraid of death!"
Daqi was tough, and Shilin and the others dared not disobey, so they had to bite the bullet and lead their troops on their horses to launch another offensive against the Ming army.
The Ming army's tiger squat cannon fired again.
The dozens of Eight Banners soldiers who rushed in the front fell off their horses, and the entire left hand of the Eight Banners soldiers who did not fall off their horses was smashed by cannons.
On the left side of his mount, an Eight Banner soldier whose thigh was hit by the Ming army's cannon was upside down. Because there were too many bloody holes behind the thigh, the Eight Banner soldier who had lost a lot of blood was pale. He struggled to get up, but he could not get up. He could only move forward little by little on the ground.
While crawling, he grabbed the soil on the ground with force. The blood-soaked soil was soaked in pieces that he could not use the force. After grabbing it, he was covered in blood mud with his hands. After a long time of hard work, his body moved a little.
Finally, the Eight Banners soldier stopped moving, but his eyes were firmly looking at the Ming army formation ahead, red and indescribable.
The sound of the trumpet of the charge did not stop at all, the shouts of the Eight Banners soldiers did not stop, and the sound of the Ming army's guns did not stop at all.
"Start the cannon, set off the cannon!"
The Zhejiang Army soldiers were so anxious that they personally urged the artillery. After one shot, they saw that the black shadow in front seemed to be missing.
The tiger squats and cannon hits a person. No matter how many layers of armor you wear, it will be knocked to the ground. Even if you wear iron armor, the powerful impact will make people break their chest and bones.
"well!"
"Start the cannon, set off the cannon again!"
"Blast these Jiannu to death!"
The excited Zhou Yiming shouted loudly. After the gunner cleared the vault, he poured the medicine in, then pounded it flat and poured lead iron bullets in. Zhou Yiming couldn't wait to ignite the fuse, but this time the tiger squat cannon did not fire the cannon at the enemy, but exploded the chamber with a "boom".
The gunner, who was close to him, was hit by the ejected cannon body, and his face was so terrifying that it was like a skull.
The gunner screamed in tears after a few sounds.
Zhou Yiming was also unable to avoid it. He was hit by the lead shot from the cannon chamber and was covered with blood bubbles. He seemed to be unable to survive.
There were seven or eight Ming soldiers who were hit around. This scene made the Ming army frightened. The other three gunners who squatted cannons did not dare to light the fire anymore.
"What's going on!"
Shang Kejin, who found the tiger squatting cannon in the distance, was so anxious that he shouted loudly that the Eight Banners soldiers in front of the chariot formation were nearly thirty feet long.
"Shoot the gun, fire the gun!"
Shang Kexi raised his gun and shot forward.
Amid the sound of guns, the Eight Banners soldiers were caught and fell to the ground, but more Eight Banners soldiers rushed up like a tide.
"Spray lime!"
Shang Kejin shouted, and when he heard the order, the Jinzhou soldiers cut the bags of lime bags on the car, and then took the scoop and sprinkled them to the opposite side.
Suddenly, there was a white mist in front of the car formation, and the wind blew lime to the Eight Banners soldiers rushing over. Many Eight Banners soldiers' eyes were choked by lime, and they tried to rub them, but the more they rub their eyes, the more they hurt, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
The lime entered the human eye, and it would not burst into tears. Once the tears came out, it would immediately boil like water, causing the Jin soldiers to cry and shout.
Seeing that the lime worked, the Ming army could not stop shooting the gun again, and the three-squat tiger squat cannons that had not exploded also sounded, allowing the opponent's Eight Banners soldiers to be buried in corpses.
The Eight Banners soldiers who could not stand the lime of the Ming army began to retreat, but were soon driven back. However, Daqi personally led his personal soldier Goshha to supervise the formation and issued a strict order for those who retreated without permission to die.
"Little Sixteen, my brother's fighting style will kill a thousand enemies and lose 800 yourself!"
Han Dai felt very painful. Although these Niulu belonged to the Red Banner, nominally belonged to the banner leader Er Beile, they were actually his private soldiers!
"Fourth brother, don't think about losing money after all...I'll go up!"
Sixteen-year-old Ebilong was very brave enough to take people to fight the horse. Han Dai didn't stop him, but not long after Ebilong came over again and shouted in panic: "More than the gifts, more than the gifts will be defeated!"
"What kind of gifts are lost!"
Han Dai was confused when he heard this. He looked in the direction Ebilong pointed, and vaguely saw hundreds of cavalry running towards the valley, and there was a group of cavalry following behind the cavalry. Although he was far away and Ye Hei couldn't see clearly, Han Dai could still see that the people behind were chasing the people in front.
Before I could see who these two cavalrymen were, the roar of "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty arrived" sounded in my ears.
"It was the Ming army's reinforcements arrived!"
Han Dai's face turned pale at that time, and his horse turned over and rushed to the river beach and shouted to his elder brother Daqi: "Brother, I'm defeated, I'm defeated!"
"Wrong, wrong!"
After hearing the fourth brother's shouting, Ebilong knew something bad at that time!
"What failed?!"
Daqi, who was supervising the battle, heard the shouts of his fourth brother in the distance, and turned around and looked puzzled. Then, without waiting for him to ask, the Niulu who were rushing to the Ming army were fighting back one after another. Some people even shouted "Defeated, defeated!"
"Go back, go back!"
Daqi was furious, but no matter how loud his roar was, he could not stop the thousands of cavalry from retreating at the same time. The Goshhas on the side didn't know what happened, and out of the instinct of protecting the master, he wanted Daqi to retreat.
At this time, Duo Jili, who had escaped from Jiahaling, also saw the Zhenghongqi soldiers on the river beach. Before he could find out who was the general who led the troops, he saw the Zhenghongqi cavalry suddenly ran to Niumaoling in chaos, shouting as he ran, saying that he had lost.
This made Duojili, who was so breathless by the Ming army, panicked. He tried his best to beat the pedestal. When he passed by Daqi, who was being pulled by Goshha, Duojili had no time to scream and rode over.
Maybe he had a glimpse of Da Qi, Duo Jili was quite conscientious, and when he passed, he turned around and shouted: "Run quickly!"
Da Qi reacted at this time because he also heard the shouts of "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty's personal army arrived". He didn't know the details of the Ming army, and saw that Duo Jili was running so fast, thinking that thousands of Ming troops had arrived, and he didn't care about his reputation and ran away.
The remaining Ming army on the river beach was stunned by the sudden retreat of the Eight Banners soldiers. When he heard the shouts of "The Emperor of Ming's personal army arrived", Shang Kejin immediately reacted and hurriedly asked everyone to shout with him.
