The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 588 Is playing a big game of chess
The limit range of Ding Yi's 42-pound gun can reach about 5 miles.

But in the naval battles of this era, it is almost impossible to hit a target that is more than 5 miles away, so we usually shoot closer.

But at this time, the riverside was full of tents, and the Ming army didn't need to aim at all. Rows of giant cannons rang out, and the shells flew towards the shore continuously.

The Qing soldiers had never seen such a huge shell.

Whoosh, a shell flew over and hit a horse in the battalion.

Puchi, someone saw the cannonball fall and hit the horse with their own eyes, and the horse was almost torn apart in an instant. Qing Bing body.

The Qing soldier's upper body was cut off directly.

The cannonball rolled forward and rolled all the way, bang bang bang, the tents and fences were all smashed, and when they rolled to the Qing soldiers, they screamed again and again.

At the same time as the artillery from the Qing soldiers fired from the shore, the second round of artillery from the Ming army's warships fired again.

I probably know that the Qing army had shore artillery, and the warships of the Ming army were far away, about four or five miles away.

It is almost impossible for the Hongyi cannon to hit a warship four or five miles away.

And the artillery of the Ming army unscrupulously bombarded their camp.

A few days ago, the Qing soldiers used the long-distance Hongyi cannons to bully the North Korean navy. Unexpectedly, they turned around and met the stronger artillery of the Ming army.

Waves of shells from the Ming army fell, and the Qing army's camp was thrown into chaos, and there were cries and screams everywhere.

In fact, at such a long distance, the artillery shells of this era will not do much damage to such a large camp.

If you don't jump up after landing, you may not be able to kill even one person.

But such a big cannonball flies by, and the momentum when it falls is quite scary, and it is even more terrifying when it hits the camp.

The Qing army camp was suddenly shelled, and many people subconsciously yelled, causing a chain reaction.

The Qing camp was in turmoil, and Huang Taiji and the generals ran northward angrily. After running a few hundred meters, they escaped the killing range of the Ming army's artillery.

Huang Taiji was very fat, he was out of breath from running, but fortunately, Kong Youde brought a horse over.

"Okay, okay, King Gongshun, you are doing well." Before getting on his horse, Huang Taiji praised Kong Youde a few words.

Kong Youde bowed his head, and when he lowered his head, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He felt that if the infantry of the Ming army rushed over at this time, it might be possible to keep Huang Taiji in North Korea forever this time.

So in the end, should I stab him in the back?

Kong Youde thought carefully about what Ding Yi said, when I raised millions of soldiers and swept the world?
Now, I'm afraid it's not the time?
Based on his understanding of Ding Yi, if Ding Yi really wanted to destroy Huang Taiji, while the navy bombarded him, the infantry and cavalry troops should also come from all directions.

Everyone fled in embarrassment from the range of the artillery fire. Huang Taiji stood on a hilltop, commanding angrily.

"Mafuta go to the east, Lausa to the west, Dodo, you go to the north, gather troops and horses as soon as possible--"

"Report" At this time, sentry cavalry came running from a distance: "A large group of Ming army infantry appeared ten miles to the east, and thousands of fine cavalry came from the north, less than five li away from our army."

"Damn it." Geng Zhongming cursed.

The corner of Huang Taiji's mouth twitched, and he didn't even need to guess to know that it was Ding Yi's soldier.

This goddamn Ding Yi, came to spoil my good deeds again?
It's like this every time, it's his nemesis.

He entered the customs back then and returned with a big victory. As a result, Ding Yi beat Jinzhou while he entered the customs.

He entered the customs again and returned with a big victory. As a result, Ding Yi beat Fuzhou and Gaizhou again.

When he conquered Chahar and returned with a big victory, Ding Yi beat Yizhou again and took away half of the population of Chahar.

Now that he was about to conquer North Korea, that bastard Ding Yi stabbed him in the back of his ass again.

So many people died every day in the Ming Dynasty, why didn't you, Ding Yi, die?
The flesh on Huang Taiji's fat face was shaking non-stop.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" Duoduo asked in surprise.

"Assemble your troops and defeat the Ming army," Hauge said.

Mafuta and Lausa didn't leave either, they all waited for Huang Taiji's order.

Now that the Ming army is here, it is obvious that the order just now does not count.

How else to fight?Huang Taiji knew it was impossible to fight now.

The Ming army suddenly appeared, but Shuo Tuo and the others had no news. He thought of a terrible consequence, that is, Shuo Tuo, Yue Tuo, and their two armies might all be wiped out by the Ming army.

How many people came from the Ming army?
To fight or to withdraw?
Huang Taiji quickly made a decision.

This must be North Korea, and the Ming army came prepared, how many soldiers and horses?
He took a deep breath, and hurriedly said: "The three of you quickly return to the camp, rectify the troops, retreat westward, first retreat to Dingzhou, and retreat in an orderly manner, Hauge"

"My son is here." Hauge hurriedly said.

"The Ming army dare not fight with us in the field. You take five thousand fine cavalry to cover the retreat of the army. Don't entangle with the Ming army. Fight and retreat."

"嗻"

"Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming."

"The minister is here."

"The Ming army has cavalry, so I'm afraid the artillery can't be taken away, so let's blow them up." After Huang Taiji finished speaking, he closed his eyes deeply.

"Hey." The two lowered their heads helplessly.

In fact, the Ming army did not have cavalry, and if they wanted to retreat, it would be difficult to take the artillery away unless they could defeat the Ming army.

Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming looked at each other, then turned around and left.

When he turned around, Kong Youde actually showed a gleam of joy on his face.

Geng Zhongming quickly came over: "Some small guns can be taken away, and some of the gunpowder and shells can be taken away."

Kong Youde said calmly: "The emperor ordered to blow up, and all of them will be blown up. With artillery, the march is too slow. If our Han army is entangled, we may be left behind, and the whole army will be wiped out by then."

Geng Zhongming sighed: "I don't know how many soldiers and horses the Ming army has, so we retreat?" It was a bit reconciled.

"This must be Ding Yi's subordinates. Even if only [-] soldiers come, it will be difficult to fight. If the North Korean army knows the news and then attacks, it will be even more difficult for us to fight." Kong Youde said.

"This bastard, comes so timely every time? Will he count?" Geng Zhongming cursed.

Geng Zhongming was really not reconciled. This time the Qing Dynasty brought hundreds of cannons. If they were all blown up, it would take at least two or three years to recover.

Since Yuan Tian arrived in the Qing Dynasty, they began to manufacture all-steel firecrackers. The resources of the Daqing Craftsmanship Bureau were all inclined to firecrackers. These cannons were blown up and it took a few years to restore them.

The two returned to the headquarters and ordered the bombing.

Only about half an hour later, at the same time as they blasted the cannon, in the distance, there was a continuous sound of gunfire.

When they heard the sound of gunshots, they knew that Ding Yi's soldiers and horses were fighting with Qing soldiers.

Bang, bang, bang, there was the sound of guns on both sides. In recent years, the Qing Dynasty has also started to make guns. Although it is not as good as Ding Yi, it still has gun soldiers.

And their gunshots were obviously different from Ding Yi's.

At first, the two heard the sound of gunfire on both sides was almost dense, but after listening for a while, they found that the sound of their own gunfire was much smaller, and soon they could hardly hear it.

The two looked at each other at that time, and they knew that the gunmen on both sides were shooting at each other, and the Qing Dynasty suffered another disastrous defeat.

Geng Zhongming cursed, and Kong Youde's expression became even weirder.

The Ming army came late, and Kong Youde knew that Ding Yi had no intention of destroying Huang Taiji here.

With Ding Yin's virtue, if he wanted to kill Huang Taiji here, he would probably bring [-] to [-] soldiers and horses to surround him on all sides, let alone wait for the ship to bombard him.

If Ding Yi wanted to kill Huang Taiji to death, he would definitely surround them with soldiers first, and then fire artillery, and he would not leave the west side unencircled, and obviously let them walk.

Ding Yi is playing a big game of chess, Kong Youde has no choice but to give in.

In today's world, only Ding Yi dared to let Huang Taiji go.
