An army using flintlocks can form a tighter formation!

The closer the array, the higher the density of firepower, and there will naturally be more obvious advantages when queuing up to shoot.

The musketeers on both sides were almost facing each other!

Amidst the crackling gunshots, countless bullets flew.

There were casualties on both sides, but overall, the Qing army suffered far more casualties than the Ming army.

When fighting in line to shoot, the Ming army has many advantages.

Whether it is equipment, training, or the basic quality of soldiers, the Ming army is much better than the Qing army.

The sound of dense musket guns continued to ring out!
The front line of the battle between the two sides is filled with gunpowder.

At this moment, an urgent report came from the front line.

"Report!"

"Your Highness Qizuo, the Guiyi Army's front line is in urgent need, and we are requesting reinforcements!"

Zhu Hongyu narrowed his eyes, and there was an inexplicable light in them.

But he ordered anyway.

"Pass down the order to transfer a reserve team of 1000 people from the Imperial Guard Division to the top."

"No matter what, we must hold the battle line steady!"

"Here!"

The messenger responded and retreated, and then went to deliver the order.

Not long after, the imperial guards who served as the reserve team received Zhu Hongyu's order and mobilized 1000 people to the front line.

As soon as these 1000 people entered the battlefield, they launched a countercharge against the Qing army in front of them.

Amidst the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the Qing army's offensive was repelled.

The Guiyi Army stabilized the front again.

……

As time passed, the Qing army's spirit was exhausted, and the offensive began to gradually slow down.

The Ming army also began to prepare for a counterattack!
Zhu Hongyu's counterattack tactics can be described as quite simple, without the slightest bells and whistles.

It is to defend across the board, concentrate superior forces on one point, strive to gain the superiority of forces on the regional battlefield, and then launch a counterattack.

In order to concentrate enough counterattack forces, the Ming army adopted a defensive strategy on the entire front, and even took the initiative to retreat some, allowing the Qing army to capture part of the front.

Use this to shrink your troops!
It is after concentrating enough troops at one point.

The heavy artillery unit of the Ming army also began to speak.

Boom!Boom!
Countless cannonballs were flying on the battlefield, and the flowering shells exploded continuously.

Then a series of rockets lifted into the air, cut through the air, and fell towards the Qing army.

The rumbling explosion lasted for a long time.

The firepower of the Ming army was concentrated and delivered to one point, and the Qing army was instantly stunned.

However, before the Qing army could react, the whole battlefield was filled with the piercing sound of charging horns.

The red armor surged, dazzling like a burning flame.

The Ming army concentrated its superior forces and defeated the Qing army in front of it.

And constantly rushing forward, killing the depths of the Qing army.

The fighting on the battlefield is getting more and more intense!
The Ming army's offensive was very swift and violent, they concentrated their breakthroughs, and then broke through with points. The Qing army, which was originally aggressive, gradually showed its defeat.

At the beginning, some soldiers of the Qing army were beaten and collapsed. They did not dare to face the bayonet charge of the Ming army, dropped their weapons, turned and fled.

At this time, the cavalry of the Ming army came out again.

Zhang Meng personally led the team, and the cavalry of the Ming army went straight to the flanks of the Qing army to cooperate with their own counterattack on the frontal battlefield.

...

The Qing army was caught off guard by the Ming army's sudden counterattack. When Tu Hai reacted and wanted to respond, it was already too late.

The Qing army on the front line has gradually retreated.

Seeing this scene, although Tuhai felt helpless, he still ordered his own cavalry to cover and withdraw the main force.

However, if the Qing army is about to withdraw, the Ming army will not let them just leave!
The main force of the infantry of the Ming army was still chasing and killing the fleeing Qing army.

The cavalry roared and galloped on the battlefield, constantly cutting the formation of the Qing army, expanding their own battle results.

Under the constant pursuit of the Ming army, it was easy for the Qing army's retreat to become a defeat!

Fortunately, Tuhai dispatched the Eight Banners soldiers in time, and let the Eight Banners soldiers go up, so that the Ming army didn't directly engulf the defeated soldiers and engulfed their main formation.

But even so, the Ming army took advantage of the situation and broke through several Qing army camps, gnawing a big gap in the Qing army's defense line.

……

The two sides are still fighting fiercely!

The shouts outside Jiaxing City never stopped.

The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day of the first month... until the tenth day of the first month!
The war continued day and night, and it never stopped!
The Ming army stormed the Qing army's camp day and night one after another, gnawed down one after another from the Qing army's camp, and continued to expand the results of the battle.

Tuhai organized the main counterattack of the Qing army several times and launched a counterattack.

But the effect was not good. Although every time the Qing army counterattacked, it could not be said that they returned without success, but it was true that the effect was very small.

Although they were able to recapture the camp captured by the Ming army for a while during the counterattack, they could not hold it for a long time.

When their counterattack is over and the Ming army counterattacks, they will lose even more!

After ten consecutive days of high-intensity fighting, the soldiers on both sides were physically and mentally exhausted.

That string is extremely tight!

Zhu Hongyu still stood at the top of the city, looking at the battlefield, but his face was obviously tired.

In the past ten days, the fighting has continued, and Zhu Hongyu has never been to the top of the city from the beginning to the end.

Eating, drinking, and sleeping are basically solved at the head of the city!
Tiredness is naturally inevitable!

But he knew that no matter how exhausted he was at this moment, he would definitely not be able to walk down the wall.

After ten days of bitter fighting, although the Ming army had always had the upper hand, they held the initiative on the battlefield.

But morale is inevitably low!
It was only because Zhu Hongyu stood on the top of the wall and beat the drums himself to cheer from time to time that the Ming army could keep their morale from collapsing.

"First Clan"

In order to maintain high morale, continue to attack the Qing army!
It can even be said that the morale of the Ming army in this battle is entirely attributed to Zhu Hongyu.

He has to hold it together!
In any case, he would not rest under the city wall at this time.

His every move is related to the morale of the army. If he goes down to the city, if there is a chain reaction, it will not be worth the loss.

"Your Highness, the pace of the battle is slowing down today, you can go down to the city and rest for a while!"

Zheng Chenggong looked at Zhu Hongyu with a tired face, and couldn't help persuading him.

After ten consecutive days of hard fighting, the Ming army, which was dominant throughout, couldn't bear it, let alone the Qing army, which was being suppressed and beaten all the way?
If it is said that the morale of the Ming army is only a little low!
The morale of the Qing army was completely broken and it was impossible to see.

With the development of the war situation to this day, the Ming and Qing Dynasties chose to slow down the intensity of the war in a very tacit understanding.

Because both sides need trimming!
Zhu Hongyu waved his hand and said.

"No!"

"Who knows that today's slowdown in the fighting is not a plan by the Qing captives to slow down their troops?"

"Gu must not be taken lightly!"

"..."

If it weren't for the ten days of fighting, the downsizing of the Ming army's ministries would be very serious. If it is not repaired, it will not be able to move.

Zhu Hongyu would not choose to let his side slow down the offensive!
Instead, they would simply keep going on the offensive, take away the Qing army on the opposite side in one wave, and win the decisive battle.

Avoid delay before change!
