Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 534
After all, Jian Nu made a mistake, but it wasn't really a mistake.

No matter how strong Dorgon's learning ability is, it is not easy to learn the fur of queuing and shooting from the Battle of Guting Town, but it is a bit difficult for him to understand the essence of infantry coordination without a teacher.

Dorgon not only lacked the concept of infantry coordination in the attack,

There is even less concept of how to defend against infantry coordination from the enemy.

So in the attack just now, Dorgon didn't think about letting the green battalion's tiger squatting cannons advance with the Eight Banners Han army and the Eight Banners Manchuria at the same time.

However, Jianu still missed the only chance to come back.

Otherwise, with the advantage of the number of tiger squatting cannons, Jiannu might really come back.

The performance of Jiannu's tiger squat cannon may not be as good as that of the Ming army, but it can't stand the large number.

This time when he came to Liaodong, Jiannu brought a full 600 tiger squat cannons and 400 camel revolving cannons.

However, at this moment, the 1000 artillery pieces followed the Green Battalion and were standing on the sidelines outside the battlefield.

If Jiannu's confidence was shaken and he felt that he could no longer win, Jiannu would also be afraid and flee.

Such a war made them feel extremely strange.

"Mother thief, this battle can no longer be fought, retreat quickly."

"Yes!" Hearing it clearly this time, Gu Yanwu immediately jumped up excitedly, and shouted sharply, "Every battalion obeys the order, form a hollow square formation, and attack the Jiannu main formation!"

To make matters worse, the more than 1 Eight Banners Han troops have also been beaten to shame by the Ming army.

Although the Eight Banners Han Army suffered heavy losses, there are still more than 1 people.

……

Seeing that the Ming army was only covered by a wave of artillery fire, it caused unprecedented heavy damage to the Eight Banners Manchuria that had launched the attack, and the remaining more than 2000 Eight Banners Manchuria turned around and fled in embarrassment. Dorgon's face instantly turned from black to red, and then from red to red. White, and finally turned from white to iron blue, like a blue-faced beast.

On the other hand, the morale of the Ming army was boosted at this moment. It was the time when the fighting spirit, fighting spirit, and confidence were at their highest, and they went up and down. Therefore, it would not be wise to confront the Ming army head-on at this time.

"Shut up!" Dorgon roared, "Can't you see for yourself?"

Dorgon still has some ability.

"There is also the Green Battalion, hurry up and set up artillery positions on the two wings of the Eight Banners Han Army, hurry up, hurry up!"

After the establishment of slaves.

At this moment, Dorgon was really incompetent and furious, because his mind was still dazed, he hadn't recovered from the failure just now, and he didn't know how to deal with the Ming army's counterattack.

……

Then, Dorgon and the others were awakened by the Ming army's trumpets and drums.

At this moment, Dorgon really didn't know how to deal with the Ming army's counterattack.

"Eight Banners Mongolia and Horqin Mongolian Ten Banners cavalry are ready to intercept the Ming army's wings and behind them, and wait for the Ming army to leave their original positions to cut off their retreat immediately!"

The more than 3 cavalry of the Eight Banners Mongolia and Horqin Mongolia were unscathed.

But how can Dorgon be willing to accept defeat and lead his army to flee?
Leading [-] elite soldiers to Liaodong full of confidence, thinking that they can win a big victory and re-boost the morale and morale of the Qing soldiers, but at the end of the day, they returned in a big defeat?

The improved Tiger Squat Cannon not only achieves standardized shape, but also adds a screw adjustment mechanism, which can adjust the pitch angle of the muzzle through the knob. For example, at this moment, the inclination angle of the muzzle is extremely small, almost flat fire.

The essence of Qi Jiguang's rule of the army is "enough food and pay, guns and cannons to cover the face". The guns refer to the bird guns, and the guns refer to the close-range and direct fire of the tiger squatting cannon.

For a long time, the Ming army gave them the impression that they could only defend, but lacked the ability and courage to take the initiative to attack. Even in this Liaodong battle, the Ming army only dared to form a formation and wait for the Qing army to attack.

Although the Eight Banners Manchuria was defeated, it was able to quickly stabilize its position and turn to counterattack.

When the drums of the Ming army sounded in front of them, Dorgon and others were still in a state of bewilderment. Looking at the broken soldiers who fled back like wild boars, they felt unbelievable.

In this attack, Jiannu really suffered a terrible death. The more than 6000 Eight Banners Han troops who invested in the attack suffered at least [-] casualties.

After realizing this, Jianu finally broke down.

At that moment Dorgon gritted his teeth and shouted: "Pass down my will, the Eight Banners Manchuria will defend on the spot."

"What is this?" Hearing the sound of the trumpets, Hou Fangyu lost his voice, "Is the Ming army going to fight back?"

More importantly, more than 350 camel swivel guns and 600 tiger squat guns in the green camp are still there. Since the Ming army can use the tiger squat guns to severely damage the Qing soldiers, why can't the green battalion use the tiger squat guns to severely damage the Ming army?

"The Eight Banners Han army immediately formed a formation, and also formed a hollow square formation, and our Qing soldiers also formed a hollow square formation."

Due to the short distance, more than 100 tiger squatting guns fired almost flat.

Adding up 120 tiger crouching cannons, that is a full 24000 pieces of lead, which is equivalent to 24000 musketeers firing guns at Jiannu at the same time. Even if the accuracy is poor, the lethality is extremely terrifying.

Seeing Jiannu turn around and flee, the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted.

Not only the ordinary soldiers below, Gu Yanwu and other scholars were also blushing and thick-necked.

But now, the Ten Thousand and Eight Banners Manchuria has suffered heavy losses, and only two or three thousand rout soldiers are left, and these two thousand or three thousand rout soldiers have been beaten to collapse by the Ming army, and they are turning around and fleeing at this moment.

"Tom tom tom tom tom..." Accompanied by the sound of intensive cannons, countless leads poured down like violent raindrops on the head of the Jiannu infantry formation, and the Jiannu who lined up to fire their guns fell down in an instant.

"The Ming army counterattacked?" Cao Eryu looked at Hou Fangyu with eyes like an idiot, "Hou Fangyu, are you stupid or do you think the Ming army is stupid? Although my Qing army was temporarily defeated, the 2 cavalry of the Eight Banners Mongolia and the Ten Banners of Horqin Mongolia The more than [-] light cavalry in the army were unscathed, and if the Ming army dared to fight back, it was courting death."

If the tiger squatting gun is not loaded with mouth ammunition, it can be loaded with 200 lead.

For example, at this moment, Jiannu was extremely desperate to find that with the remaining 2000 people and the 2000 self-generated firecrackers in their hands, they had no chance to break into the Ming army's position.

Accompanied by the loud and majestic sound of drums,

Correct or not, at least his response was made.

Dorgon's will was quickly conveyed, and the Qing troops from all walks of life responded quickly.

"The cowardly sheep actually wants to take the initiative to attack the beasts in the white mountains and black waters."

Until a messenger ran up to him and shouted at him: "Gu Brigade Marshal, Xu has an order to remonstrate, the whole brigade forms a hollow phalanx, and advances to the Jiannu main formation!"

But now, the Ming army went against the norm and launched an attack on its own initiative.

Dorgon, Hong Chengchou and others were completely dumbfounded.

The messenger repeated again: "Xu gave the order to remonstrate, the whole brigade forms a hollow phalanx, the target is to build a slave formation, attack and advance!"

However, the Ming army was strictly disciplined. No matter whether it was a scholar like Gu Yanwu or an ordinary recruit under his command, they did not dare to rush after them before receiving an order.

No, no, I, Dorgon, must not lose to Chongzhen!

"What did you say? Attack forward?"

"Hahaha, good, good! Very good!" Dorgon laughed angrily.

Therefore, in just one round of shelling, more than half of the remaining Eight Banners Manchuria were killed or injured.

Thinking of this, Dorgon felt a strong sense of unwillingness in his heart.

Hong Chengchou and the others beside him also looked dull.

In the confusion, I don't know which Gu Shane really roared,
In the next moment, more than 2000 Jiannu who had fought to the death for the rest of their lives turned around and fled back.

The next moment, the trumpet drum rumbled.

Such a result was something they never expected.

At a distance of thirty to forty steps, the flat fire of the tiger squatting cannon can only be described as ferocious.

For a moment, a huge question mark floated in front of everyone?

The next moment, Cao Eryu was stunned there, did the Ming army really fight back?
Not only Cao Eryu, but also Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng and others were dumbfounded.

"Jiannu collapsed! Jiannu collapsed! Jiannu collapsed..."

Gu Yanwu felt a little confused, what's going on?
Isn't the hollow phalanx used for defense?Can you still attack those who are advancing?

For this expedition to Liaodong, the core combat force is [-] Banners Manchuria plus [-] Banners Han Army. Others such as Eight Banners Mongolia, Green Camp and Horqin Mongolia are just auxiliary forces.

……

After being smeared in the face by the tiger crouching cannon, the surviving Jiannu finally collapsed.

There are only less than 3000 people left in the [-] Banners Han Army.

"Tell He Luohui that at all costs, the Ming army must be held back for at least a quarter of an hour."

This time, Jiannu was really smeared by the tiger squatting cannon.

"Da Ming Wan Sheng! Da Ming Wan Sheng! Da Ming Wan Sheng..."

Jiannu is indeed brave and good at fighting, and he is not afraid of death, but there is a prerequisite for this, that is, he can win battles.

Why?Why did it become like this?In the previous situation, it was clear that the Qing soldiers had the upper hand, so how could the situation be reversed in the blink of an eye, and the Qing soldiers suffered a tragic defeat?
It's all about failure, and the casualties are so heavy?

After seeing the command flag, the Eight Banners Manchuria, who were retreating hastily, immediately stopped their rout.

"It's messed up, it's all messed up, the whole world is messed up, it's all messed up!"

So when he saw Jiannu fleeing, he just roared excitedly.

The war in front of them is no longer the war they are familiar with.

In the entire 2000 and Eight Banners Manchuria, only more than 7000 people fled back. The remaining [-] people were either killed on the spot or covered their faces with guns and guns. The slave lost control of the battlefield again, so the result of waiting for these wounded soldiers can be imagined.

"Ah?" Cao Eryu looked back at the battlefield ahead in a daze.

The soldiers of the Ming army walked out of the trenches one after another.

By the way, the tiger crouching cannon of the Ming army has been improved.

These Jurchens who fought from the white mountains and the black waters, these Eight Banners soldiers who have received the cruelest and most rigorous training since childhood are indeed something, at least the transition between offense and defense can be truly seamless.

And brave enough, even if he knew he couldn't stop the Ming army, he still dared to fight.

"Line up, line up! All listen to my command, the first team raises their guns, and the second team stands ready!"

Accompanied by the voice of the big and small Ezhen and each Zhangjing's password, the Eight Banners Manchuria quickly arranged the formation.
