Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

On October 20th, the 1647th year of Chongzhen (2), at the right time, Dorgon led [-] main forces of the Qing army and [-] accompanying troops to arrive at the Hunhe battlefield. More than [-] Mongolian cavalry from the ten banners of the Horqin tribe also arrived at the battlefield at the same time. Immediately, a confrontation with the Ming army was formed, and the second bloody battle of Hunhe officially kicked off.

The large nest vehicles of the Qing army were quickly set up.

Dorgon took a few hardcore traitors to the nest car.

Standing on the roof of a large nest car with a height of six or seven feet, you can see the formation of the Ming army very clearly from a condescending height, so it is very confusing to see the formation of the word "device" laid out by the Ming army.

In fact, strictly speaking, the formation of the Ming army is not a standard "equipment".

Because the center of the word "Qi" is a dog character, but the formation of the Ming army also has a word of mouth of the same size in the middle, so this is actually a formation composed of five characters of mouth.

And the five words are all separated from each other.

There is a passage between two adjacent openings.

Seeing this formation, Dorgon and the others were stunned.

"What formation is this?" Dorgon frowned.

Hou Fangyu frowned and said, "Could it be an enhanced version of the hollow phalanx?"

"Enhanced version? It doesn't look much different." Hong Chengchou frowned and said, "Maybe it's because one hollow phalanx can't hold so many musketeers, so it's divided into five hollow phalanxes."

"It's possible." Dorgon agreed with Hong Chengchou's judgment.

Hong Chengchou went on to say: "So we can break down one by one, first break through the four hollow phalanxes at the four corners, and finally break through the hollow phalanx in the center, and then the Qing soldiers can go straight to Chongzhen."

Hearing this, Hou Fangyu's heart suddenly moved and he said, "Why can't we directly attack the hollow phalanx in the middle?"

"Directly attack the hollow phalanx in the middle?" Dorgon's heart moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "You mean to enter through the four passages in the middle of the four hollow phalanxes, and directly behead the Emperor Chongzhen?"

Hou Fangyu nodded and said, "Look, master, the passages in the middle of the four outer squares are all about the same width. If the servant's estimation is correct, it is at least two hundred paces or more."

"Self-generated firecrackers can only shoot accurately within fifty paces."

"More than fifty steps, the accuracy will drop sharply."

"The distance is more than a hundred steps, and even heavy armor can't be pierced, let alone a chariot and a van. Therefore, it is safe to have a passage at least a hundred steps between two adjacent Ming army phalanxes."

After a pause, Hou Fangyu said again: "My Qing soldiers can rush in through these four hundred-step-wide passages, and attack Chongzhen's central army directly."

"However, the Ming army is not a wooden stake." Ning Wanwo questioned, "If the Ming army shrinks, how should we deal with it?"

Once the Ming army in the four outer squares shrinks, the four passages in the middle will be narrowed accordingly, and the Qing army attacking the central formation of the Ming army from the passage will be attacked from both sides.

Being flanked by two sides is no joke.

But anyone with a little brain would not do this.

Hong Chengchou waved his hand and said: "There is no need to worry about this matter. The Ming army has already formed a partial carriage formation using partial carriages. Outside the formation, repelling horses have been deployed and trenches have been dug, so it is not easy to move."

After a pause, he continued: "What's more, we can send out Eight Banners Mongolian or Horqin Ten Banners cavalry to contain them. As long as the Ming army on the periphery moves, the Mongolian cavalry will take the opportunity to cover up and kill them, and the Ming army will be defeated like a mountain."

Since ancient times, it is relatively easy to arrange troops, but it is difficult to change formations, and it is even more difficult to change formations in the face of battle. One carelessness will lead to chaos, which will lead to the collapse of the entire army.

Therefore, when the two armies are at war, as long as they penetrate or disrupt the enemy's formation, they basically win the victory.

Famous generals like Han Xin who can command an army of tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of people, and fight and leave are rare, and there are only a few in China's 10-year history.

After a pause, Hong Chengchou said again: "The most worrying thing is the cannon of the Ming army."

"Cannon?" Dorgon's expression froze slightly when he heard the words. Even without binoculars, he could see hundreds of red cannons in the main formation of the Ming army with the naked eye. In addition, the main formation of the Chinese army and the four hollow square formations around it There are tiger squatting guns inside, and there are at least hundreds of tiger squatting guns in total, which should not be underestimated.

Because the shells of the red cannon can easily destroy the car.

The 30 double-fold ammunition of the tiger squat gun is also enough to destroy the van at close range.

At this time, Hou Fangyu suddenly said: "The red cannons and tiger crouching cannons of the Ming army are not to be feared."

Fan Wencheng was about to refute with a stern face, but was interrupted by Hou Fangyu: "Mr. Xiandou, don't rush to refute. It is not too late to refute after I have finished speaking."

"Tell me." Fan Wencheng frowned.

Speaking of this, Fan Wencheng couldn't help but looked at Hong Chengchou and Ning Wan and I, thinking that Hou Fangyu's mentality today is a bit abnormal, did he get any stimulation?

Hou Fangyu turned back and said to Dorgon: "Master, as far as I know, the red cannons and tiger squatting cannons of the Ming army are not substantially different from the red cannons and tiger squatting cannons of our Qing Dynasty, and their firing speed is also the same. It is similar to the red cannons and tiger crouching cannons of my Qing Dynasty, which can fire dozens of cannons at the fastest within half an hour."

Hearing this, Hong Chengchou and the other three felt their hearts skip a beat.

They really ignored the rate of fire of the red cannon.

Although the red cannon is powerful, its rate of fire is very slow.

The Tiger Crouch Cannon has a slightly faster rate of fire, but is much less powerful.

Hou Fangyu said again: "So, the Qing soldiers who attacked would at most receive one shot."

"My will has been decided!" Dorgon immediately made up his mind to attack, and said, "Use the cavalry of Horqin's Ten Banners to contain the Ming army in the surrounding areas, and then transfer 8 Niulu from the Eight Banners Han army to attack from the middle passage."

Dorgon was actually very cautious and only invested 8 Niu Lu.

This is equivalent to a probing attack, intended to spy on the reality of the Ming army.

The order was passed on quickly, and the Eight Banners Han army began to move.

The Mongolian cavalry who had been watching from a distance also slowly pressed up.

……

"Jiannu really intends to launch an attack from the four middle passages."

After seeing Jiannu's transfer clearly, Xu Yingwei immediately judged the other party's intentions.

Jiannu really didn't know how to live or die, and dared to launch an attack from the four passages. They didn't even think about it. If they couldn't block it with firepower, how could they leave the passages?

This is not a deliberate trap.

But it is also a trap.

……

Soon, the 8 Niulu 2400 Eight Banners Han troops were divided into four groups, with 600 people along the way, aggressively attacking the passage in the hollow phalanx of the Ming army.

In order to protect the Eight Banners Han army from the firepower of the Ming army from both sides of the passage, Dorgon equipped the eight Niulu Eight Banners Han troops with 8 sidecars, 160 sidecars for each road.

160 vans are assembled into 4 movable vans,
The Eight Banners Han army, guarding 2400 heavily loaded guns, rushed into the passage.

Some things are really weird. Although Chongzhen brought flintlock guns and even rifled rifles to this world in advance, the military technology of this world has not evolved and developed according to the expected track.

For example, the tactic of queuing up and shooting has gone awry in this world.

This world has only staged a few small-scale queuing and shooting, and quickly skipped this ignorance stage and advanced to the chariot stage in advance. Chariots, strive to prevent your musketeers from being exposed to the opponent's guns.

Although it is the original version of the tank, it is still a tank after all.

Fifteen centimeters thick pagoda tree boards or elm boards are installed on the front and side of the van.

This thickness of locust tree board or elm board can withstand the close-range direct fire of the flintlock gun, and it can also perfectly defend against the lead shot of the tiger squatting gun.

The shells of the Hongyi Cannon must be unstoppable.
However, the slow rate of fire of the Hongyi cannon in this period is not a concern.

The artillerymen of the Ming army may have realized this, and they never fired a single shot from the beginning to the end.

Until the 4 Eight Banners Han troops entered the middle of the passage with 2400 sidecars guarding the city, the red cannons or tiger crouching cannons in the five phalanxes of the Ming army did not respond.

"Strange, what are the artillerymen of the Ming army waiting for?"

"Could it be that you want to wait for the Eight Banners Han army to approach before firing the cannon?"

"When things go wrong, there must be a demon. The behavior of the Ming army is so abnormal, there must be a conspiracy." Hong Chengchou said, "Master, the Eight Banners Han army who is attacking must be vigilant, and don't fall into the tricks of the Ming army!"

"Trick? Dorgon frowned and asked, "What trick? "

"This, the slave didn't think of it for a while." Hong Chengchou smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Line mines!" At this moment, Ning Wan and I suddenly growled, "Beware of land mines!"

"Mines?" Dorgon's heart trembled when he heard the words, and he was about to ask the messengers to remind the Eight Banners Han army to attack through semaphore, when a huge explosion suddenly came from the Ming army in front.

Looking intently, I saw that the four-seat sidecar array that had just entered the passage had been blown upright.

The Ming army didn't know how many landmines were buried in the passage. Anyway, after detonating, the four sidecar cities of the Eight Banners Han army were blown to pieces.

The Eight Banners Han army hiding in the side car city is also bloody and bloody.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of red cannons and tiger squatting cannons in the Ming army fired at the same time.

Almost all the iron bullets and lead hit the four side car cities of the Eight Banners Han Army accurately, and the side car cities that were already in disarray instantly became more broken.

The Eight Banners Han army hiding in the side car city fell again.

Then, the musketeers of the Ming army on both sides of the aisle also advanced one after another, firing guns at the Eight Banners Han army who had lost the protection of the side car city. In an instant, more Eight Banners Han soldiers fell wailing in a pool of blood.

In less than a moment's time, the Eight Banners Han army was attacked by three waves.

Half of the 2400 Eight Banners Han troops who attacked were killed or injured in a blink of an eye.

The remaining uninjured or more injured Eight Banners Han army turned around and ran away.

The thief, doing this is purely giving away the head, there is no way to fight this battle.

However, it was too late to run away at this time, how could it be possible to run away?
