The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 450 Rush over
Huang Taiji suspected that there were not many people here. With Ding Yin's character, it was impossible for the infantry to not fight back when they were shelled by the enemy outside.

"Khan, what should I do, can't I get in?" someone asked immediately.

Right now is the best opportunity, rush to occupy the artillery formation of the Ming army, and take all the soldiers and horses across the Beigou, then they will have a flat river, and they can enter Ding Yi's hinterland at any time.

At that time, Ding Yi can only retreat to Fuzhou to guard, and it is impossible to have such a good opportunity and terrain to fight with them.

Fighting is definitely going to happen, but Huang Taiji always felt that it was not that simple. How could Ding Shuo be repelled so easily because he made a name for himself under the hood.

But the time will pass sooner, so it wouldn't be good to let Ding Yi build a position later?

"Let's fight." Azig also shouted: "Let's sentry cavalry keep an eye on this area day and night, and the Ming army has just arrived. Apart from building an artillery array, there is no time to dig a hole. If we give them time to dig a hole , it’s not easy to fight.”

The generals of the later Jin Dynasty were afraid that Ding Yi would dig a hole, and they would have a headache when they saw him dig a hole. Azig's words touched everyone's pain.

Huang Taiji also knew that he could not hesitate for too long, so he quickly made up his mind: "The five thousand cavalry of the Han army are in the front, and among the five thousand infantry, ten thousand soldiers and horses will go up first, go up."

Li Shutai and other Han generals went back immediately to gather troops.

Woo, with the sound of the heavy horn, the [-] cavalry of the Han army quickly assembled, followed by the [-] Han infantry.

Among the [-] Han infantry, there is a very special Han army, each carrying a blunderbuss. It turned out to be the newly formed blunderbuss soldiers formed by Hou Jin following Ding Yi's example.

There are 2000 firecrackers in this army, all equipped with birdcracks made by Houjin, commanded and trained by Li Sutai.

The quality of this bird gun is definitely better than that of the Ming army, but it is definitely not as good as Ding Yi's Lumi gun.

Li Shuitai was very good at learning, so he divided the two thousand musketeers into four rows, just like Ding Yijun, and sent them in four rows in rotation.

They had tried several times in Shengjing, and the effect was very good. This time they were used as a secret weapon.

Although "Chong" Li Sutai was defeated by Ding Yi many times, his words and suggestions by Huang Taiji's side are very important and have been reused.

Ten thousand Han troops were under his command.

Following his order, the iron cavalry of the Han army rushed towards the main road like a torrent, towards the opposite side of Beigou.

The infantry followed closely behind and ran forward, and two thousand musketeers followed behind Li Shuitai.

Hou Jin was all cavalry, and the infantry also rode horses, and everyone took horses.

They waited for the Han infantry to pass 5000 people, and they would follow.

Just when the cavalry of the Han army rushed to the main road and rushed within 1.5 miles.

"Boom boom boom" The Ming army's cannons no longer bombarded the Houjin artillery formation, and the shells hit the cavalry densely.

Once the gun goes down, there will always be a large number of cavalry fell down.

Even if a high-speed cavalry is brushed by an iron ball, it will definitely fall to the ground.

A round of attacks from a hundred artillery pieces, like rain, screamed everywhere in the cavalry formation, and countless cavalry fell down.

Huang Taiji and the others watched from behind and gasped incessantly.

After this round of shelling by the Ming army, their [-] cavalry lost at least [-] cavalry.

Fortunately, the artillery fire was slow. After the first round, the cavalry had rushed within one mile.

Boom, boom, the second round of artillery fired again, still hitting the cavalry.

Cannonballs fell like rain, and sometimes after hitting a high-speed cavalryman with one cannonball, whoosh, the cannonballs could bounce for more than ten meters, and after flying to more than ten meters, they pounced, cut off the head of another cavalryman, and landed backward.

Plop, hit the third horse, jumped up again, and plopped along the middle of the cavalry formation for a few times before stopping.

So the horses and people who were hit fell down one after another, screaming.

More cavalry were killed and injured in the second round. The Ming army continued to fight for two rounds, and the Jin cavalry suffered more than [-] casualties. There were all kinds of wounded horses and cavalry along the road.

But at this time, the cavalry of the Han army had rushed within 100 meters of the Ming army, facing the Ming army's artillery bunkers, and the Ming army's artillery could not do anything to them.

Many people bent their bows and shot.

Whoosh, whoosh, the overwhelming rain of arrows shot forward.

Riding and archery was not the Han army's forte. After a round of arrow rain, they continued to charge forward, and soon reached ten meters in front of the Ming army's artillery formation.

"Hoo!" Everyone gathered around one after another, reining in their horses.

Finally rushed to the front with two rounds of artillery, but how to fight this?Many people gasped, how could this be done?
The infantry of the Ming army had already retreated, but in front of them was a six-meter to seven-meter-high platform piled up with mud, rocks and sandbags. There were a large number of blockhouses built on it, and the artillery of the Ming army was on it.

Some of the cavalry dismounted and threw arrows at it.

But soon they realized that this was of no use. Forts built by the Ming army were usually covered with a roof, leaving only the muzzle.

"Call the infantry to attack." Someone sent a message to the back.

At this time, the infantry also began to rush forward mightily.

Boom, the artillery of the Ming army no longer hit the cavalry, but hit the infantry.

The infantry ran relatively slowly, and they had to be shot at least five or six times along the way.

Li Soltai is also considered smart, so that the infantry lineup should not be too dense. Even so, it takes a lot of courage to rush towards the artillery.

A large number of infantry were killed on the way.

Along the way, you can still see the corpses and wounded soldiers of the cavalry in front.

Kong Youde was stunned at the rear, and he counted silently in his heart that Ding Yi's cannon had fired almost ten rounds from the beginning to the present.

Although it stopped in the middle, the ability to shoot continuously is too strong.

It takes a longer time to recover after switching to Houjin's cannon.

So facing the shelling of the Ming army, the Jin Han army with 1 horses, [-] cavalry and [-] infantry all rushed through Beigou.

However, under the artillery fire of the Ming army, there were more than a thousand infantry casualties. Among them, the infantry was beaten for five rounds, and 5000 people charged, but less than [-] people reached the opposite bank.

Before seeing the Ming army, Hou Jin had already suffered heavy losses.

But as soon as the remaining more than 8000 people rushed over, they surrounded the Ming army's artillery formation.

Everyone yelled at the top of the cannon array, and some people tried to climb up.

Because the infantry did not bring ladders in the past, they quickly sent a message to the front, asking the handymen to bring ladders up to support them.

"Rush over?" Huang Tai was overjoyed, he didn't expect to rush over so easily this time: "Where's the Ming army formation?"

"The Ming army has now retreated a mile away, what should we do now?"

Huang Taiji suddenly got up: "The whole army goes over, let the Han army attack the Ming army's artillery formation, and let's meet Ding Mouse."

At this time, his confidence was buoyed up. As long as the Ming army had no guns and no pits, he would not be afraid of anyone in the field.

Even if the Ming army has artillery, as long as it is not as disgusting as the front, he is not afraid of the artillery array built at a height of six or seven meters.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" blew the horn again, at this time they still have [-] post-gold cavalry and [-] Han infantry, and [-] Mongolian cavalry have not crossed Beigou.

Nearly [-] people were attacking around the artillery formation of the Ming army, and they finally decided to cross the river.

And at this time, the artillery of the Ming army suddenly stopped, and it was obvious that they fired too much, which was useless.

"Rush." ​​Dorgon was young and energetic, and after receiving his order, he rushed forward with the white flag first.

It was too late for Azig to call, and the elite Zhengbaiqi of the brigade rushed out like arrows.

To everyone's surprise, the Ming army's artillery really stopped firing.

"Chong Chong Chong" the elite of the Dajin Eight Banners rushed towards Beigou like a flood.
