Chapter 462
"put!"

"Boom bang bang-"

"put!"

"Clap clap-"

At two quarters (11:23) on March 30, [-], when the time was about to reach the [-]th, the sound of guns and guns sounded continuously in front of Beishanbao battlefield.

The corpses have covered the wide plain, but there is still an endless stream of people stepping over the backs of the corpses.

Cao Wenzhao could no longer be alone in the stone fortress. He took his entourage and soldiers to stand in the trench and shot with his rifle.

[-] gunners controlled [-] cannons, and wiped the cannons with wet rags. Even if this would reduce the life of the cannons, they didn't care so much.

The soldiers of the Ming army in the flames had no chance to rest. The two thousand riflemen who were in charge of firing their guns could only numbly pull the triggers towards the crowded heads in the night, while the other three or four thousand riflemen and riflemen squatting in the trench It is to keep reloading for them.

The lead bullets in the gun chambers of the Ming army were fired at a rate of once every ten seconds, and each round of guns could knock down hundreds of thousands of healthy women.

The voices of sharp-eyed soldiers sounded from the trench, and Cao Wenzhao heard a trace of fear from the voices and tone.

After all, Cao Bianjiao clamped his horse's belly and started to build momentum with hundreds of Ganying cavalry following him.

With the sound of his wooden whistle, all the Tang cavalry galloped to the battlefield, and then conveyed Huang Taiji's military order, and the more than 6000 horse infantry of the former army immediately rushed towards the Ming army's position braved the rain of arrows.

When the fireworks were lit up as flares, there were densely packed corpses and densely packed healthy women in front of the camp.

"kill!"

On the back of Hei Ye's horse, Huang Taiji talked with Ji Erhalang, and there were Azig, Dorgon, Duoduo and others behind him.

Although the battle is still raging, the defeat of the Ming army has been revealed, and the hope of the Jin army breaking through is gradually increasing.

"Cao Bianjiao is just building momentum. There are only two or three thousand riders around him, so don't be nervous."

It's just that the Mongolian cavalry archers also arrived on the battlefield at this time, and after tens of thousands of them arrived on the battlefield, the first thing they did was to draw their bows and set arrows, preparing to suppress the Ming army with firepower from arrow rain.

This kind of destruction does not refer to forceful destruction, but under the attack of the healthy woman, the shield cart began to tear down the rows of horn walls and horses, and rolled down into the trench with the barbed wire, only three or four feet exposed.

"Finally..." Huang Taiji looked at the battlefield and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this point, there is no need to guess too much about which direction the Jin army will break out from.

"The healthy woman will continue to attack, and then tell all the horse infantry to withdraw, and prepare to mount horses and charge against the Mongolian Eight Banners!"

Mangurtai's complexion was very ugly, but Huang Taiji glanced at him in the dark. Although he couldn't see Mangurtai's expression clearly, he still frowned and said, "There is no magic weapon here."

"Yes!" Hearing this, Jierhalang hurriedly rode his horse to direct the gunners of the two yellow flags.

Seeing this, some heavy infantry stepped on the corpses and climbed over the barbed wire. However, before they could run to the horn wall, they stepped on the air and fell directly into the trench behind the barbed wire.

Due to the swarming of the healthy women of the Jin Dynasty, the horse and infantry soldiers were unable to form a formation. They were scattered for a while, and their firing distances were also different. They did not cause any losses to the Ming army, but fortunately, their own losses were not too great.

Rifles can hit targets a hundred paces away, but they cannot penetrate armor.

The Mongolian rangers who were ordered on the front line no longer threw arrows, but changed their bows and rushed towards the Ming army's position.

The eight-foot-deep trench is not that deep, but even so, it still ruined the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

"I will leave a thousand soldiers and horses for you, and I will take away the surviving healthy women. Be careful."

Cao Wenzhao shouted to the left and right riflemen and blew his whistle.

The roaring cannons and fireworks sounded and lit up at the same time, and Cao Wenzhao in the trench saw the corpses all over the place for a moment, but the group of healthy women didn't know it.

The sound of killing came from the side and rear, and Huang Taiji didn't need to think too much to know that it was Cao Bianjiao who led the cavalry to kill him from the mountain.

Right now, the Jin army has been fighting for half an hour, and even the forward barbed wire position of the Ming army has been breached. It would be a fool to withdraw now.

Hearing the whistle, the Shence Guard riflemen who were helping the riflemen reload just a second ago grabbed their rifles one after another, lay down on the trench, and started to fight back together with the riflemen.

As the Ming army killed more and more healthy women, the Ming army's front fortifications disappeared, replaced by a "corpse wall".

"Beep--"

In the dark night, the healthy women of the Golden Army did not know their own casualties, and could only see seven or eight tribesmen around them.

However, Huang Taiji didn't know that at dusk, there were 600 gunners left in Shence Guard, and Cao Wenzhao left [-] of them in Beishan Fort.

When the time comes, women and children will be in chaos, and they may flee for their lives to Beishan Fort, disrupting the Golden Army's own position.

"Okay!" Liu Aita nodded, and then Fan Wencai rushed towards Beishan Fort with 7000 soldiers and horses and more than [-] healthy women after he divided his troops.

He stood by the bonfire, and the moment he waved the command flag, he was seen by the generals at the top of the city.

"Successful breakout?"

"The breakout was successful, let's retreat!"

For a while, arrows fell like rain, and bullets were like locusts.

The ear-piercing whistle of the Golden Army sounded, and the heavy infantry of the Golden Army, who couldn't bear the slaughter of women in front of them, began to retreat, and the women and children who couldn't understand the whistle also pushed the shield carts and smashed through the crumbling barbed wire.

Under the cover of the arrow rain of the Mongolian cavalry, the Jin army took advantage of the exhaustion of the firepower of the Ming army and charged. Cao Wenzhao watched this scene. No, so he can only put his hope on the artillery.

"Are you really going to break out from here? I'm afraid it will be a bloody battle..."

The heavy shield car needs more than a dozen healthy women to push it, and it can only advance 1 to [-] steps in a minute, and the speed is very slow.

The people behind kept pouring in, which gave the surviving healthy women an illusion that they didn't sacrifice too many people.

Although there are tens of thousands of Ming troops stationed here, he still chose to attack, and his attack has already achieved initial results...

For Tang Qi, who ran desperately, this distance is just a cup of tea.

In the two-mile-long position, there were only 200 counterattack troops, and even counting the 800 riflemen, there were no more than [-].

"The rangers continued to shoot arrows to suppress, and the horse infantry was ready to charge up and drive the Ming army out of the trench!"

Cao Bianjiao was still building momentum, but Huang Taiji saw through his intentions at a glance, ignored him at all, and continued to focus on the frontal battlefield.

Although they were not very proficient in using them, they relied on their horses to hide in the crowd and shoot, but this did little damage to the Ming army, and very few people were shot.

"Bang bang bang-"

All of a sudden, someone beat the drum on the stone fort, and the sound of "dong dong dong" began to permeate the battlefield. More than 4000 riflemen abandoned their rifles, pulled out the short hammers and long knives at their waists, and began to hack and kill. The group of healthy women pouring into the trench.

As the distance approached a little bit, the healthy women who were not covered by shields were shot and fell to the ground one after another, while the healthy women who were covered by shield vehicles and shields continued to move forward.

"Let Xiao Cao's army back up!"

In just ten seconds, hundreds of healthy women who poured into the trench were beheaded to death, and at the same time, the riflemen were actively shooting at the golden army horse infantry.

When the rifle sound of "bang bang bang" sounded, all the Golden Army were stunned, even Huang Taiji and others who were already confident in the middle of the Golden Army were stunned.

They seemed to be reborn from the ashes, and they were so tenacious that they would desperately rush to a place less than ten steps away from the trench of the Ming army.

The healthy women kept coming up and falling down, and gradually, their bodies began to pile up in front of the barbed wire.

Liu Aita resisted this impulse, but laughed along with it, then looked around, and then said:
"The Great Khan asks people to stay behind, so how about this, you take people to support the Great Khan first, and I will take my headquarters to end the rear."

More than five hundred shield vehicles were extremely heavy. Having learned the lesson of the day, Huang Taiji had people thicken the partitions, and the weight of the shield vehicles soared to [-] to [-] jin.

Cao Wenzhao tried to appease the soldiers in the trench, but his appeasement was useless. Facing the cavalry without barbed wire to stop them, the soldiers of the Ming army began to panic.

"kill!"

It's just that 7000 people against 6 to [-] people in the plain and river valley is ultimately impossible with manpower. Therefore, although the Jin army's horse infantry was contained, the healthy woman succeeded in breaking through.

The war is not over yet, but corpses are strewn across the Ming army's positions.

Seeing this scene, Huang Taiji keenly sensed that this was an opportunity, so he blew the wooden whistle.

They rushed into the trench like dumplings. Cao Wenzhao swung a knife and chopped down several people, and quickly blew the wooden whistle:
"Riflemen cover riflemen! Change to short soldiers!"

"The whole army is on horseback!"

However, I don't know if there are too many of them, or the shells and bullets of the Ming army can't completely destroy them. In short, there will always be a steady stream of healthy women rushing to the battle.

"Don't panic! Although the cavalry is sharp, they have to be able to survive!"

Sparks were flying everywhere, but the barbed wire fence was not so easy to solve. Often, healthy women who rushed to the front of the battle swung their knives and slashed three or four times, and would be killed by lead bullets from the Ming army's rifles.

Naturally, a mere [-] shield chariots could not hide the figures of these tens of thousands of healthy women, so when they entered a distance of a hundred paces, the Ming army's musketeers began to line up their guns to greet them.

Wuli Fort is too narrow, and there are stone forts following Xishan Fort, and Dongshan Fort deviates from the direction, so only Beishan Fort can be attacked.

The Ming army's artillery, rifles, and rifles fired continuously and repeatedly. Scattered bullets flew around them, and the bullets continued to be fired. Under the powerful firepower of the Ming army, they fell down row by row and rushed up row by row.

While arching their bodies, the Ming army used the back armor to protect their hands and faces, while reloading and shooting at the protected places, so that the shooting frequency began to decline.

The sudden force was indescribable, they felt as if the internal organs and all the bones in their bodies were throbbing, but the strange thing was that they didn't feel any pain at all, they just felt that their whole body had no strength.

"Boom bang bang-"

The healthy women who broke through the barbed wire were knocked down one after another, but Cao Wenzhao was not happy, because he knew very well that they might not be able to break through the healthy women who were several times as numerous as the Ming army, but they could definitely take the Ming army's Fortifications "destroyed".

His shouts were insignificant on the two-mile-long defensive line, but fortunately, he made all the military orders before the battle.

Moving with a shield weighing more than 40 kilograms is undoubtedly very exhausting, so the women and children of the Jin Army kept moving in relay, and they could also feel the force of the Ming Army's platoon bullets shooting on the shield.

The wooden thorns buried in the trench seriously injured them in an instant. For a while, whether it was the heavy infantry of the Golden Army or the healthy woman who tried to climb over the barbed wire, they all fell into the trench.

Cao Wenzhao didn't know what ecstasy soup Huang Taiji had poured into the healthy women of the Kingdom of Jin. In short, at this moment, they were rushing forward, wanting to break through the Ming army's defense line and snatch the trenches regardless of casualties.

"Woooooo-"

The Ming army was in disarray, and charging at this time would undoubtedly allow the army to win.

He didn't rush down the mountain directly, but ran up the mountain with the cavalry from the Duogan Battalion, throwing the torch in his hand.

For a while, [-] Jin troops on horseback rushed to the trenches. When the Ming army was in chaos, they clashed with the Ming army at close range by shooting arrows at short distances or fighting close to each other.

"Yes!"

Cao Wenzhao saw the Mongolian cavalry arriving on the battlefield at the moment when the fireworks exploded, and quickly began to give orders to the [-] riflemen of Shence Guard.

"Shoot the captives with rifles, shoot healthy women with rifles!"

"Yes!"

Fan Wencai laughed excitedly, Liu Aita almost couldn't help but drew his knife and cut him with that disgusting look.

Suddenly, the fireworks at the rear finally started again, but when the fireworks bloomed and brought a ray of light to the land, what the Ming army saw were tens of thousands of women and children pushing the shield car.

"Isn't the firecracker team in Xishanbao and Wulibao?! How could there be here?!"

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji touched his waist, thinking of the stone bomb fired by the Ming army back then, and thinking of Abatai who was killed, his face darkened instantly.

"Everything is worth it." Looking at the precarious trench position of the Ming army, Huangtai Jillama, who led the troops to the front line, gritted his teeth at the same time.

Although the arrows thrown by Zhuma were not powerful, the rain of arrows covered a huge area. Although the Ming army had armor, they still had to guard against being hit by arrows on their palms and faces.

Huang Taiji cursed, but no one could answer his question.

When the shield car collided with the barbed wire fence and the horse and sheep horn wall, with a dull sound, the healthy women of the Golden Army were unarmored, but began to chop up the barbed wire fence with simple iron knives.

"But... General, you haven't said where to fight..." Qianhu Guan was taken aback when he heard the sound, but Cao Bianjiao glanced at the Ming army's cavalry with a dark face:

"This road is the broadest, and the most people can walk, and this road can only be taken..."

These torches ignited piles of bonfires on the mountain, and the burning bonfires also attracted the attention of Huang Taiji and other high-level officials in the Jin Kingdom.

When the dense sound of rifles and flying bullets began to harvest the golden army's healthy women, the relay forty artillery also roared.

"The Golden Army is charging!"

After the fire was lit, there was a dull explosion, which made Cao Bianjiao, who had been waiting for the news, turn around instantly:

However, the defeat of Cao Wenzhao's troops was set, no matter how brave Cao Bianjiao was, he was powerless to turn the tide of the battle.

However, I am afraid that even if he knows, he will not regret it, because the wide Beishanbao River Valley is the only choice for the Jin army to break through with the whole system.

On the frontal battlefield, the horse infantry from Jianzhou were the first to rush to the battlefield and launch an assault. They were equipped with the rifles and bird guns in the hands of the soldiers of the Ming and Jin armies who died yesterday.

"put!"

However, the healthy women at the moment don't have any armor. Most of them are women and children wearing cotton clothes and holding heavy shields step by step.

The artillery fired again, facing the horse infantry rushing in, the shotguns swept across, and the golden army horse infantry turned their backs for a while.

Seeing that there was no harm, they charged towards the Ming army's position after reloading, but ran away after firing a shot when they approached the trench position.

"Boom bang bang-"

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji's palms were sweating, and he felt a little uneasy, as if he was worried that the Ming army would have some trump card waiting for him.

At this critical moment, the Tangqi sent by Jierhalang also brought news to Daishan and Yuetuo who attacked Xishanbao, Fan Wencheng and Li Yongfang who attacked Wulibao, and the 1 soldiers who were fighting with the Ming army. Fan Wencai and Liu Aita, who deal with many cavalry...

"Yes!" Dorgon and the others immediately ordered someone to deliver an order when they heard the words, and at this time nearly a quarter of the Ming army's trenches had been killed.

"Beep...beep——"

"Why don't you go to Xishan Fort? There are too many people here!"

However, after these six hundred riflemen joined the battle, the precarious battle situation in front of Beishan Fort immediately changed.

Behind them, the heavy infantry of the Golden Army who also held their shields were waiting, and behind the heavy infantry, less than nine thousand bird gunners were also waiting.

Huang Taiji wanted to break through the Beishan Fort, even though there were the most Ming troops here and it was the most difficult, he still had to go this way to break through.

In the war of annihilation, if you don't go to the battlefield, you will die, and if you go to the battlefield, you will die. It is better to die on the battlefield. If the army can break through, their children can at least leave with the sweat.

The Jin army's breakout was about to succeed, and everyone who saw hope became excited.

Although there were still three or four feet left, as the healthy women were continuously shot to death, their bodies gradually pressed down the barbed wire.

The Qianhu officer yelled at the Ming army on the archery tower, and the small banner officer in charge of the archery tower saw this, immediately hung a string of fireworks on the huge arrow on the arrow tower's bed crossbow, and lit its fuse.

Therefore, no matter how much Huang Taiji scolded, he still didn't say anything about withdrawing the troops. Instead, he told Jierhalang and Azig on the left and right:

Huang Taiji first opened his mouth to reassure his mind, and then said: "The gunners of the two yellow flags are ready to form an formation, and take advantage of the dark night to attack in three stages, and eat all the cavalry of the Ming army!"

On the two-mile-wide position, there were no less than ten breakthroughs that were cut off by iron knives for a while, and then hit by shield vehicles.

Hearing the order to break out, Jin Jun Tangqi trembled with excitement, and hurriedly ran towards the rest of the ministries.

Because judging from the information he had during the day, breaking out from here is the most likely way, and it is also the path that can take the most people away.

The bombs shot out like migratory locusts, like rice harvested by a sickle in autumn, falling down in rows.

"Beep--"

If Liu Aita was defeated, then Yubayashi, Lu Long, and Tiance's tens of thousands of cavalry would be able to stab Daikin directly from behind.

"Boom bang bang-"

The four hundred cannons were divided into ten groups by Cao Wenzhao. Although there were only forty cannons in each group, they still fired dense shotguns, covering a range of 150 steps in front of the formation.

"Beep--"

With this thought in mind, the healthy women of the Jin Army kept rushing up. At the same time, Cao Wenzhao also saw the cavalry of the Jin Army riding on horseback in the distance in the light of the fireworks exploding, rushing towards the Ming Army's position.

The artillery played a decisive role again. Hundreds of healthy women were harvested instantly and fell on the cold battlefield of Beishan Fort.

However, the shortcoming of insufficient manpower has been exposed. Seeing that the Ming army in the trench was in disarray, Huang Taiji immediately grabbed the handle of his knife and drew it with a "crack" sound:

Huang Taiji took the lead in the charge, and Azig quickly ordered to the Tang Qi beside him when he saw it:
"Notify all the ministries to break out of the Beishan Fort, and only need to leave a small number of troops to contain the Ming troops from all walks of life!"

"Bam—"

Among the women and children, they could also see many hidden Mongolian rangers and Eight Banners horse infantry.

"Riflemen go!"

"Kill them!"

"All troops charge!"

Called by horns and whistles, the horse infantry suddenly gathered on the battlefield, and then concentrated on the trenches where the Ming army was stationed.

"Boom—"

More importantly, Huang Taiji had seen during the day that there were no riflemen in Beishan Fort.

The lead bullets and bullets of the Ming army continued to shoot, and the rain of arrows from the Mongolian rangers also hit wave after wave.

Accompanied by others swinging the mallet and smashing it down, the huge arrow shot into the air in an instant, and at the moment the fuse burned out, a ball of flames lit up over the battlefield.

Fan Wencai was a little worried, but when he thought that Liu Aita had the longest and earliest relationship with Nurhachi among all Jin Guohan generals, he felt relieved and could only nod his head:

"If you kill me Abatai, then I will kill two generals!" His words seemed to be heard by Zhu Youjian, and in the next second he also ordered the left and right people according to his thoughts:
"Let Jierhalang kill Cao Bianjiao, tell Mang Gurtai and Azige to kill Cao Wenzhao!"

Two whistles and one short whistle sounded from Cao Wenzhao's mouth, and then the officials of hundreds of households blew their wooden whistles one after another.

When Tang Qi brought the news, Liu Aita's heart tightened, while Fan Wencai beside him was ecstatic.

The barbed wire fortifications were covered by corpses, and there were no restrictions on cavalry and horse infantry. Nearly [-] cavalry and horse infantry on horseback would become the trump card of the Golden Army to destroy the Beishanbao position.

"Eh..." Fan Wencai was a little moved, but when he thought that there were only 400 people in Liu Aita's headquarters, he became uneasy instantly.

"Okay!" Zuo Ling's eyes lit up, Dang even found the Jin Yiwei hidden in the army, and asked them to remind Habayashi Wei in the dark.

The Huangtai Jiben Department is only more than ten miles away from the various departments, and the closest is only five or six miles away.

At this moment, all the healthy women of the Golden Army saw only a flash of dark red flames, and then felt as if their bodies had been severely hit with a red-hot hammer.

It was only when he looked at the team of 3 healthy women before the war that he realized that there were only less than [-] healthy women left...

After he left, Liu Aita rode up to the head of his headquarters and whispered:
"You let someone touch it in the dark, and tell the generals of the Ming army of Habayashi Guard to wait for my news before doing anything."

In the eyes of Ming soldiers, healthy women without armor are nothing more than lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The reloading speed of the rifle suddenly slowed down, and the shooting frequency also began to decrease. Seeing this, Cao Wenzhao had no choice but to wave the command flag towards Beishan Fort.

"There is no target, you just follow me down and charge!"

Seeing that everything had been arranged, Liu Aita looked towards Beishan Fort, and looked at the fire in that direction, her face twitching uncontrollably.

He thought of the scene when he met Nurhachi back then, when Nurhachi solemnly said that he would protect all the people in Liaodong.

He also thought of the scene of Nurhachi treating the Liaodong Han people who surrendered to him as consumables after the Battle of Liao Dynasty, and was exhausted to death.

Thinking of this, his facial features became a little distorted, and the flesh on his face couldn't help trembling:
"Huang Taiji, you father and son broke the appointment first, no wonder I..."

 The second afternoon around four to five o'clock
