The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 520 I Can't Believe
The artillerymen of the Ming army were all watching at this time. Some people stood on their horses and watched, not afraid of being shot by arrows. When they saw their shells coming out, they immediately adjusted their angle and direction.

Boom, the Ming army also fought back in the second round.

After this round was over, the cannons of the Qing soldiers did not fire for a while, and when they rang again, there were only five cannons left.

The morale of the Ming army was greatly shaken. If there were fewer cannons on the opposite side, there would be fewer casualties, and the pressure on the Ming army would be much lighter in an instant.

Ding Yi was also overjoyed to see the effect of the shelling in front of him at this time. After all, his artillery was much more professional than that of the Qing soldiers, and he really fought well.

"Push some more guns up, and they will collapse." Ding Yi ordered immediately.

"No." The messenger quickly rode his horse and ran around.

At this moment, someone nearby shouted: "My lord, be careful."

When Ding Yi turned his head, he saw a cannonball from the Qing soldiers, whoosh, flying to this side.

A lot of guards and messengers around him rushed up, some raised their shields, some blocked with their bodies.

"What are you doing? Why are you panicking?" Ding Yi yelled.

In fact, he panicked.

But he looked at the landing point, there should be a little gap.

And it's useless if there are too many people, it will only affect his escape.

Quickly push away the soldiers around you.

Whoosh, the shell passed by their left front, with an error of about 15 meters away from them.

Puchi, fell into the formation.

A group of gun and shield soldiers who were fighting against the Qing soldiers, like the Qing soldiers, groaned, and were instantly beaten out of a line of blood.

Both sides were screaming.

Ding Yi thought to himself that he should be more careful when going out to fight in the future, he would be wronged if he was shot to death.

And this time, in order to defend against the cavalry, he formed a chariot formation, and eight thousand soldiers and horses were squeezed into a rectangle, which was a little dense.

So the chances of being hit by a cannon are high.

Of course, I didn't expect this dog, Oboi, to secretly ambush the cannon.

In front, Oboi asked the cavalry to shoot, probably waiting for the artillery.

To be honest, Oboi's style of play is quite good, and it is the only way to break Ding Yi's formation right now.

But Oboi had too few cannons, and he fired slowly, so he had to wait a while for a round.

And Ding Yi's soldiers and horses are strictly disciplined and not easy to collapse.

If this Oboi prepared dozens of cannons and fired them in such a volley, no matter how elite Ding Yi's troops were, they would not be able to withstand them.

"Master, let's go, we are about to lose." At this moment, someone on the battlefield persuaded Oboi.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Qing soldiers are fighting less and less. Although the Ming army also suffered heavy casualties, the lineup is still solid. The number of people on both sides has changed from the 3000 Qing soldiers to the Ming army, and now the Ming army is more than the Qing soldiers.

More than 9000 Qing soldiers rushed up, and now only five or six thousand are still around.

The worst part was on the west side. There was a gap just now, and a large number of Qing soldiers rushed up. As a result, the Ming army immediately had hundreds of fusiliers on top. There were 800 Qing soldiers all the way there, and now only [-] people were fighting, with more than half of the casualties.

If it hadn't been said before the battle that if you retreat, you will be killed, and the chief generals of the various ministries are not dead yet, they would have collapsed long ago.

Obai looked around unwillingly, and looked back at his cannon from time to time.

He very much hoped that his artillery could defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop.

But in the fourth round of artillery fire again, only two shots came.

When these two cannons hit the Ming army's formation, it was like throwing a stone in the river, and the fluctuations were not very obvious.

Most of the Ming army didn't care about the cannon, it just depends on luck to be hit.

Seeing that their artillery had the upper hand, the morale of the Ming army became stronger, and a large number of artillery began to try to move forward.

Moreover, these two cannonballs actually missed. One cannonball hit the front of the Ming army, and finally broke a car.

Another cannon almost hit the attacking Qing soldiers.

Obai saw it, and knew that Fu Hengzhi might have moved the Hongyi cannon back because he was afraid of the Ming army's shelling.

This bastard dared to move the artillery position back without my order. I wanted to cut off his head. Oboi was mad. hurt morale.

The Qing soldiers' fourth round of artillery was simply destroying their own morale, and they did not fight well at all.

The Ming army's artillery quickly counterattacked, almost chasing Fu Hengzhi's artillery fire.

At this time, a large number of Ming troops rushed out from the big formation of the Ming army in front, guarding the cannons, and marched forward step by step.

The Qing cavalry that surrounded the front of the Ming army could not stop it at all, so they had to retreat to the east and west wings again.

Aobai looked at the soldiers and horses falling from the horses all around, and the soldiers and horses who fell down, with constant casualties, were considering whether to retreat or not.

Suddenly, rumbling, a large number of cavalry rumbled from the east.

Ao Bai quickly turned his head to look, and saw a large group of cavalry galloping from the east like lightning.

Hahaha, Oboi is ecstatic. If the [-] elite he sent out come back, he can turn defeat into victory immediately, and launch another charge. He will definitely wipe out all the soldiers and horses including the artillery in the front line of the Ming army.

After all, God helped me clear up.

Before, he sent a large number of elite Manchus to fight against the cavalry of the Ming army. Now that he thinks about it, he should keep the elite Manchus.

If it was said that the people who besieged the Ming army on all sides just now were all Manchurian warriors, Oboi was sure that they had won now, and even if they hadn't won, they must have broken through the Ming army's chariot formation.

The armored infantry battle of the Manchurian warriors is not at the same level as the Mongols.

More than [-]% of his hands are Mongolian soldiers, and he can't beat the opponent's blunderbuss with cavalry and shooting. After close range, his infantry combat level is far inferior to that of the elite.

So the Ming army just dared to leave the chariot formation and oppress their cavalry in turn.

If his hands are full of people, it is not certain who will win or lose.

In the future, we will have to rely on our Manchu warriors to use Mongols to charge the battle, lead Mingmen to fire guns, and fight at close quarters.

While thinking, Ao Bai glanced again, wait, something seems wrong?behind that?Hiss, almost fainted.

What the hell?He thought his eyes were blurred, so he quickly shook his head and looked again.

At first glance, he saw that Qingqi was indeed running back from the front line, but behind the dozens of Qingqi, it seemed that they were all cavalry from the Ming army.

How could this be?What about the four thousand cavalry of my Qing Dynasty?
In order to wipe out this group of Ming army cavalry, he dispatched troops twice, a total of [-] cavalry, more than half of which were elite Manchu armor and infantry.

Four thousand Qing cavalry, in his opinion, can fight more than 1 cavalry of the Ming army, let alone two thousand cavalry.

In the Battle of Dalinghe, the two hundred cavalry around Huang Taiji collapsed the six thousand cavalry of Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and his son in one charge.

He lost four thousand against two thousand?

Moreover, Ding Yi's soldiers are powerful in infantry, not cavalry at all.

How could this be?How could this be?Ao Bai couldn't believe his eyes.

Even if the Ming army had [-] cavalry, it was impossible to destroy their [-] cavalry so quickly.

Could it be that the two idiots Zakuer and Solu were thrown off by the Ming army?At this time, Oboi's first thought was that his cavalry had been thrown off by the Ming army.
-
Time went back to before Yuan Youcai.

He headed east with two thousand cavalry.

Among the Qing soldiers, Zakuer and Solu quickly each led two thousand fine cavalry and chased after them.

Yuan Youcai was not in a hurry, his cavalry horses were all excellent war horses brought from Jeju, which were better than the horses of the Mongolian and Qing soldiers.

Because at this time, the Mongolian and Qing soldiers were still relatively short of food, and they used far less food to feed their war horses.

Their war horses eat an average of [-] to [-] catties of grain a year, and the horses of the Mongolian and Qing soldiers eat up to [-] to [-] catties, and some even only eat grass, which is rare.

In addition, there is winter on the grassland, and grass must be stored in advance manually. In winter, grassland horses eat hay, but there is almost no winter in Jeju Island. The temperature is always above [-] degree, and they can eat fresh grass in winter. The quality of horses on both sides is not at the same level. of.

Yuan Youcai took out a piece of kraft paper from his arms while running, and after looking at it, he was sure that he read it correctly.

"Go forward, go." He galloped on, two thousand cavalry galloped after him, and four thousand Qing cavalry followed closely behind.

He looked at the terrain while running, and after running for a mile, the Qing cavalry behind them were only about two miles away from them. This was also the distance he deliberately kept.

Yuan Youcai was not in a hurry at all, and he didn't speed up, as if he was waiting for Qingqi to catch up.

He led the cavalry and ran along the plain for another two miles, and the Qing soldiers behind were already within one mile.

"Go south." Yuan Youcai gave an order, and the cavalry group suddenly went south.

The Qing soldiers behind were still in hot pursuit.

The two sides are getting closer.

At this time, Yuan Youcai showed a gleam of joy, because he saw a hillside in front of him, and it was relatively high.

With a big wave of his hand, the whole army sped up and headed up the hillside.
