After capturing Nanjing, Azig still did not play well in Jiangnan.-And Duo Duo and Azig were also brothers and brothers. In the Jiangbei, the son had never been comfortable for a day.
After Wu Sangui led the army to the south, the Qing army's troops in the Jiangbei battlefield greatly reduced, and the total strength of the troops was less than 150,000. Although it seemed a lot, the areas that needed defense reached Huai'an, Fengyang, Luzhou, and morally, and returned to Germany. The five prefectures in Xuzhou, the front of the front includes the entire east, nearly two thousand miles. Therefore, the force also looks stretched. Facing the pinch of the merchant's army from the north and the south, it also forced Duo Duo to use the east to dismantle the east. The way the wall supplement the West Wall is exhausted.
Fortunately, the firearm built by Beijing was also sent to Duo Duo's hands, and it was finally exempted from holding the Huai'an Mansion and retracted the offense of the Merchant Army. Finally, it was able to maintain the situation of Jiangbei.
The news that the merchant army launched an offense to Luzhou was passed to Guide House. Duo Duo also carefully considered that Luzhou was originally a defense area of Wu Sangui, and Duo Duo did not want to interfere with it, because now he also learned that Aziger also learned that Aziger also learned that Aziger also learned that Azig The news of sending Wu Sangui to attack Zhejiang. Although Duo Duo felt that Azig's move was too obvious, as far as Wu Sangui's strength was concerned, he also agreed. Even if I immediately sent troops to rescue Luzhou, I am afraid that I am late.
Therefore, Duo Duo decided to concentrate his strength and attack the Yangzhou area, and also gave the merchant army a plan to save Wei Zhao. Of course, the victory of the Qing army guarded the guard, which also increased Duo Duo a lot of confidence. You can compete with the merchant army. Therefore, he is also eager to try, hoping to use firearms as the main force and fight again with the merchant army.
This time the goal of Duo Duo's offensive attack is Tianchang County, with a total of 45,000 people. This is also the largest maneuvering force that Duo Duo can make up in the Jiangbei Theater. Including forty red artillery and thirty -five pilots, more than 6,000 soldiers, and more than 1,000 Perak rocket launchers. There are more than 10,000 troops using firearms.
After receiving the report, Luo Yuanbin and Wang Xin immediately recruited the other three teachers to discuss the countermeasures. In the end, everyone believed that the defensive forces of the Merchant Army left behind can completely resist the offense of the Qing army. , Continue from Luzhou to the west, continue to attack and the state.
However, Luo Yuanbin proposed a bold plan, because through the victory of Luzhou, it also confirmed that the Second Army still had the strength to fight hard. And now the merchant army has learned that there are not many residents in Hezhou, and there is no force in Hezhou. It is necessary to concentrate the strength of the three divisions to make progress and the state. It can be carried out at the same time at the same time, so Luo Yuanbin believes that if a division of the division is drawn from Luzhou, approach the direction of Tianchang County, temporarily stop, wait for opportunities, if Tianchang County If you eat tight, you will reinforce the defense of Tianchang County. If Tianchang County can guard, you can also wait for the army for a long time to attack. When the troops are tired, take the opportunity to attack the Qing army and you can defeat the Qing army in one fell swoop.
In this way, even if the other road can't attack Hezhou, after defeating Duo Duo's army, the Qing army may not have enough troops to rescue the state, and then the merchant army can concentrate their strength and then attack the state.
After winning the victory of Luzhou, the officers and soldiers of the Second Army also restored their self -confidence in their combat effectiveness. Therefore, everyone also thought that Luo Yuanbin's plan was completely feasible.
In Hezhou, Luo Yuanbin took the third division to reinforce the sky, leaving the sixth division stationed in Luzhou.
————————————————————————————————————————
Duo Duo led the Junjun to Tianchang County on March 22, and at this time, the merchant army was also prepared to face the face in Tianchang County.
The third brigade guards Tianchang County. This is also an old troops. The combat experience is very rich.
Promoted into the brigade chief. At the same time, Liu Botao, the chief of staff members of Yangzhou, also sent a group to reinforce the defensive forces of Tianchang County. At the same time, Zou Hongshen also told Luo Yuanbin's combat plan.
More than a hundred doorsal artillery and sixty -four tube piano guns are also transported to Tianchang County. The largest three -inch six -point caliber bronze cannon has 32 doors.
Originally this time, I did not rush to the battle to attack Luzhou, Zou Hongshen and the officers and soldiers of the third brigade were very disappointed. I did not expect that guarding Tianchang County waited for a larger fish.
Such enemies are talented. Therefore, Zou Hongshen had already rubbed his palms and sent him a reinforcement force and so many firearms. Naturally, he was full of confidence. Therefore, Liu Botao said that he would be able to keep Tianchang County.
The Merchant Army still did not station in the city wall. Instead, it arranged its own line of defense outside the city. At the position of the Qing army's positive attack, a regiment was arranged.
Duo Duo has no stranger to this formation method of the Merchant Army, so he also sets his command point in a thousand steps in the line of defense from the Merchant Army to observe the battle with a telescope.
After the Junjun arranged his own formation, Duo Duo also ordered immediately to start the attack.
The Qing Army concentrated more than 120 artillery on the front, including all red artillery and Perak artillery.
Duo Duo also sent two thousand fire soldiers, one thousand bow arcade, one thousand soldiers, using thirty thunder cannons, and also launched a hundred shield cars as a cover, began to approach the line of defense of the merchant army, while others other, and others
The artillery also followed the queue of the Qing army and entered its own range.
In the position of the Qing army, the forty red artillery was full of firepower, and the position of the business army was launched. However, the merchant's army did not show weakness.
Open the fire and fight back to the Qing army.
For a while, the sound of the artillery was roaring, the sky was shaking, the explosion was cut, and the deafen was deafening. A fierce battle also officially opened the curtain.
Because the Qing army was an active offense, during the offensive, it was inevitable to withstand the loss. With the advancement of the offensive forces, other artillery of the Merchant Army also joined the team one after another, although there were 100 shield cars.
, But it can only protect a small part of the soldiers, and it is only protected in front of it. In the wing and the back, there are still enamel defensive areas. Therefore, in the Qing army, the explosion continues to occur.
The ground soil sand and gravel splashed, and the Qing army continued to scream.
At the same time, from the merchant military array, there are still thunderbolt rockets flying out, falling into the Qing army's queue exploding, splashing the burning fire oil, and a lot of shield cars burn the fire oil, but some of them were burned, but some of them were burned, but some of them were burned, but some of them were burned, but some of them were burned, but some of them were burned.
Although the shield car burns through the fire, as long as it has not been burned, it can still continue to protect the Qing army and promote the progress.
The rolling grief of the ground screamed. The tragic level of the battlefield can also be seen.
However, the artillery of the Qing army also entered its own range, and began to attack the merchant army. At the same time, in the Qing Army's array, a lot of thunder rockets also flew out, and they fell to the position of the merchant army.
Because the Qing army's artillery is a solid bomb, the lethality of the merchant army is not great, but in addition to the slightly close range of the Perak Rockets of the Qing Army, the power of explosion and burning is not the same as the prospect.
The difference is not far away. When the gunpowder, this burning weapon has a larger lethality than explosive weapons. Therefore, in the firearms of the Qing army's imitation merchant army, only the Perak Rockets are the most the most.
Successful.
Although the merchant army attacked the firearms of the Qing army, she had long been prepared for ideas, and also made a lot of prevention measures. Not only did they strictly implement the safe use and management specifications of gunpowder, but also built a lot of bunkers protection soldiers and artillery.
The explosion damage of the Rockets also prepared a large amount of wet mud sand to extinguish the flames produced after the explosion of the Thunderbolt. But it is impossible to completely avoid the casualties. Therefore, some soldiers were exploded.
Killing, there are also soldiers who are splashed and burned, almost the same scene, but they play in the positions of both sides and the queue at the same time.
And at this time, the front of the Qing army was advanced to about 300 steps to the front of the merchant army.
Under the protection of the thirty thunder artillery of the army, they were all intact under the protection, so they also set up a fire and hit the front of the merchant army.
The power of flowering bullets is indeed greater than the real bomb. Therefore, as the shells are killed one by one in the position of the merchant army, the sound of explosion has begun to become more. Although the merchant army has a bunker protection, there are still many soldiers.
He was killed and injured, and the casualties began to increase rapidly.
Of course, from the general point of view, the loss of the Qing army still far exceeds the merchant army, not only because the number and quality of the Qing army's firearms are still a considerable distance from the merchant army.
The losses will always be over the defensive side. But this also means that the current Qing army can also use a long -range blow to the merchant army.
