Chapter 455 Cannonballs Wash the Battalion, Collapse!

Boom boom boom...

With the dull loud noise, ten iron balls as big as bowls hit the Ming army's artillery positions.

The Ming army's artillery position was three miles away from the front line camp in the Qing army's camp at this time. Among the Qing army's cannons, only the Red Barbarian cannons could hit three miles away, and they also needed to be placed at a higher position.

Du Yinxi had known that there were ten red barbarian cannons on the opposite side of the Qing army, so how could he not be prepared?

Therefore, although there were eighty Guangming cannons, the gun positions were very scattered, and the Guangming cannons were made of thick wood and steel-covered baffles, and then the steel bars were used as the skeleton for force buffering.

structure.

Although it is not impossible to completely block the iron bullets sent by the Red Barbarian cannons, it can also be defended slightly, giving the artillery a place to hide.

In addition, when setting up artillery positions in the Ming New Army artillery, they would set up special bullet-proof craters next to them.

At this moment, when they heard the sound of artillery fire in the Qing army camp, many artillery soldiers jumped into the bullet-avoiding crater next to them. This kind of bullet-avoiding crater is quite effective in preventing iron shells from the Red Barbarian cannons.

Ten iron bullets roared, and only three were lucky enough to hit the Ming army's artillery.

This probability is already quite high.

However, only two of the gun cars were damaged, and the other was just wiped.

Only one of the steel light cannons was slightly damaged.

As for the artillery, only one unlucky guy was stabbed into the vital siege by the broken cannon truck and died on the spot, while three others were slightly injured.

Although the casualties were minor, the artillery soldiers of the 14th Town of the Border Defense Army felt severely provoked and immediately extended the flowering bullets to hit several camps of Shang Kexi's troops.

Shang Kexi is only 5,000 people under his command now. In order to prevent Ming army artillery, four large camps were set up.

Even so, he suffered eighty flowering bullets, and an average of twenty were distributed to each camp.

Even though Shang Kexi's troops set up trenches in the battalion to avoid bullet craters, nearly 100 casualties were still injured, especially the artillery soldiers near the artillery chariots.

Several of the Red Barbarian cannons placed on high slopes, even three of which were blown to the ground. It would take at least one more hour to restore the cannon position, but if you want to pass it again, it would take another quarter of hour.

For two quarters of an hour, the Ming army could send out more than ten rounds of shells.

This is true. A minute or two later, the Ming army artillery once again took care of the four camps of Shang Kexi's troops.

Because Du Yinxi and Hao Xiaozhong did not say anything to stop, or chose to attack other camps, the artillery soldiers of the 14th Town continued to attack Shang Kexi's army camp at a frequency of two or three minutes.

Wei Dacheng, the commander of the 14th Town's direct artillery whistle, who was temporarily in charge of commanding these 80 artillery groups, was an old artillery soldier transferred from Sichuan. He was almost seriously injured by the Qing army's artillery bombardment just now. He was in a hot temper and commanded at this time.

The artillery dismissed the shells and cursed.

"Damn Qing barbarians dare to beat us. If you have the ability to beat us to death, you will die if you can't beat us to death!"

"So I continue to use the flowering bullets to let them feel what it means to wash the floor!"

Wei Dacheng also watched movies when he was training in Chengdu. The most profound influence was the scene of shells washing the floor in the movie.

His regret has always been that he has too few artillery under his command. This time he was able to command eighty light artillery guns and imitate a shell in a movie to clean the floor. It was a pleasure.

Wei Dacheng and other artillery soldiers were very satisfied, but the Eight Banners Han Army of Shang Kexi's army opposite collapsed.

Eighty flowering bullets fell down in two or three minutes, which gave the artillery soldiers of Shang Kexi's troops no chance to fight back.

Anyone who wants to use the Red Barbarian cannon will often have a round of Ming army's flowering bullets before they can be eliminated, and their faces will be blooming, with heavy casualties.

Those were all in the trenches and other Eight Banners Han troops in the craters were also difficult to survive.

Their trenches and bomb craters were dug very scientifically and were very rough. After being hit by three-wheeled flowering bombs, they collapsed one after another.

The Eight Banners Han Army of Shang Kexi's army was either buried alive on the spot or was killed and injured by broken porcelain pieces, iron nails, etc. in the flowering bullets.

Therefore, if we failed to survive the ten rounds, the remaining Eight Banners Han Army in the four camps of Shang Kexi's troops collapsed.

Even Shang Kexi himself did not dare to stay in the original camp and hurriedly fled to the side with the defeated soldiers - they did not dare to flee directly, for fear that the Qing army's supervisor would be killed directly.

Azige was shocked when he saw the scene of Shang Kexi's troops being washed by shells in a camp in the rear.

When he came to his senses, he felt that his heart was filled with fear. He felt that the Ming army had so many fierce artillery, and that the Qing Dynasty could not defeat them. All his belief in winning the Qing Dynasty was defeated by this artillery battle.

It's gone directly!

"Transfer the order of the king and retreat!" Ajige got out of the car and said with a dry throat, "There are so many artillery artillery in the Ming army, so fierce that there are no battles to fight!"

Other generals in the Qing army, such as Oboi, Suksah, Jin Li, Zu Kefa, etc., also watched the artillery battle just now and were also frightened.

After receiving Ajige's order, no one said Ajige was cowardly and retreated as quickly as possible.

There are many cavalrymen and there are many mules and horses in the army, so they still have some confidence in successfully evacuating. In addition, if the Ming army really dares to take the initiative to attack and prevent them from retreating, perhaps they can still rely on the advantage of cavalry to find an opportunity to turn defeat into victory...

On the other side.

Du Yinxi, who was also standing on the car, immediately discovered the abnormal movements of the Qing army camp with a telescope.

"Those four camps that have installed red artillery cannons collapsed like this?"

"The other Qing military camps are not right... Could it be that they are going to retreat?"

Thinking of this, Du Yinxi frowned and immediately ordered the sixth group of the Flying Eagle Team to activate drones to observe the situation in the Qinglu camp.

The sixth group was ready to be on standby. After receiving the order, the team leader Ye Linrui immediately took the bird's eye view of the drone and took off.

Soon, the bird's-eye drone controlled by Ye Linrui came to the sky above the Qinglu camp at an extremely fast speed with a sharp whistling sound.

The observer clearly saw the situation in the various camps of the Qing army through a bird's eye view of the camera below the drone. He immediately went to report to Du Yinxi: The Qing army was indeed preparing to retreat!

Du Yinxi frowned even more when he heard this, "If we let the Qing emperor escape back to Weihui Mansion, we will fight again, it will take a lot of time.

The key is that after this battle, I am afraid that the Qing emperor may not dare to fight us again, and he may be able to retreat directly outside the pass."

Zhang Kuang said on the side: "The supervisor's concerns make sense, and the Military Affairs Council probably did not expect that the Qing army would be directly destroyed by our artillery.

If the tens of thousands of Qing captives escaped at this time, and the situation was reported to Qingting, Qingting would probably shrink its troops completely and retreat to the outside of the pass.

Liaodong is full of mountains and forests. If the Qing emperors really flee back to their nests, it would not be so easy for us to wipe them out.

The officials thought that at this time, the supervisor made a quick decision and ordered the entire army to attack the Qing barbarian camp, hoping to annihilate the tens of thousands of Qing barbarians in one fell swoop!"

Du Yinxi said with a brow wrapped around, "But if I annihilate these Qing captives, wouldn't the plan of the Military Council be seriously affected?"

Zhang Kuang said: "The plan is not as good as change. After annihilation of the Qing enemy in this battle, the supervisor can immediately telegraph the Military Council and suggest that the two troops at sea act immediately. There is great hope before the Qing court received news of Ajige's defeat.

Going straight to Beijing.”

Du Yinxi felt that it was not good to ignore the overall situation, but the current situation needed him to launch a general attack, so he hesitated for a moment.

Zhang Kuang became anxious and advised again: "The supervisor must not miss the opportunity, and he will never come again. As for the plan of the Military Council, wouldn't you hear that you will not accept the orders of the king outside?"

Upon hearing this, Du Yinxi finally stopped hesitating and gritted his teeth and said, "Well. I will pass on this command to attack the entire army, and be sure to wipe out all the Qing captives in front of me!"
