Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

The two white flags of Jiannu suddenly divided their troops and turned towards the northwest and southwest corners of the Chinese army phalanx respectively. The incident happened suddenly, but it did not exceed Chongzhen and Xu Yingwei's expectations.

Because in the previous sand table deduction, the offensive and defensive sides have deduced countless possibilities.

Among them, the Jiannu cavalry avoided the firepower of the Ming army in front of the phalanx and instead attacked from an oblique angle.

Xu Yingwei was just a little surprised that Jiannu also thought of this, so it can be seen that they are not stupid.

Chongzhen said: "Jiannu has fought victorious battles in Liaodong for half a century, and the generals of the Eight Banners are basically experienced in hundreds of battles, so it is not surprising that they can think of this."

"But it's useless." Xu Yingwei said.

"We've already planned for this."

"We also planted a lot of landmines on the oblique corners."

"Although it is inconvenient to shoot diagonally, the firepower density is greater."

If Jiannu launched an attack from an oblique angle, it would suffer concentrated fire from the Ming army on both sides.

"Don't be careless. The bravery of the two yellow flags is beyond our imagination." Chongzhen said in a deep voice, "So the two white flags should not be underestimated either. Compared with the two yellow flags, the two white flags are the elite accumulated by the old slaves. The fighting power will only be stronger, and the two yellow flags are charging on foot, and the speed is slow, while the two white flags are charging on horses, and the speed is faster."

"Understood." Xu Yingwei nodded, and immediately turned around and shouted, "The order goes on, and the 4th and 5th towns each send two infantry brigades to the main line of the Chinese army to strengthen the defense of the Chinese army."

The phalanxes in the 4th and 5th towns quickly moved.

At the same time, the 1st Brigade of the Mountain Artillery also turned around.

The Ming army in the rear of the Chinese army also turned their guns.

But such a move made the Ming army a little awkward.

Not only was the firepower divided into two, but it had to be fired obliquely towards the corners.

However, Jiannu's cavalry didn't stop, and they were still galloping. They didn't turn around again until they cut through the two sharp corners of the northwest and southwest corners, and cut in diagonally behind the sharp corners.

This is really a bit powerful, because in this way, the frontal firepower of the Ming army is perfectly avoided, and only the Ming army line array on the two sides can hit Jiannu.

But Yan Yingyuan's reaction was also very fast.

Seeing this, Yan Yingyuan decisively ordered the frontal infantry to turn to the two sides to form a second line of formation.

At this time, looking down from the watchtower, the second half of the Chinese army's main formation has disappeared, and it has been replaced by a line array with two layers and three rows each.

It has to be said that the formation training of the Ming army is really solid.

In addition, the quality of the Guozi students who graduated from the Guozijian is also really good.

As long as one of these two conditions cannot be met, it is wishful thinking to realize the change of formation before the battle. At that time, not only the change of formation cannot be completed, but there is a high probability that the formation will collapse, and that is the end.

However, the changes of the new army of Ming Dynasty were stable and fast, which can be regarded as a model.

Of course, it is undeniable that the line array is relatively simple.

"Fight!" Yan Yingyuan gave the order the moment the Jiannu cavalry entered a hundred paces away.

The shells of the 2.5-inch field gun and the tiger squat gun are enough to hit two hundred paces away, but in order to ensure the lethality, Yan Yingyuan, like Xu Yingwei, decided to fire Jiannu within a hundred paces.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" 90 mountain guns and more than 100 tiger squat guns shot out shotguns at the same time.

At a distance of 2.5 steps, the shotgun shells of the tiger squatting cannon are enough to cause damage to the Baya soldiers in triple armor. Not to mention the [-]-inch mountain cannon, its lead can even penetrate two people.

More than 10 semi-double lead, divided into two directions, poured towards Jiannu like a torrential rain, and shot to Jiannu's front in an instant.

The [-] slave cavalry rushing in the first row were turned on their backs in an instant.

Many Jiannu cavalry who rushed in the second row were also shot and fell to the ground.

The front of the two cavalry formations, which seemed to be rigorous and complete, suddenly became chaotic.

However, Jiannu was obviously furious today, and he stepped on Paoze's body and continued to charge forward, regardless of the robed Ze who fell to the ground in the front row.

The two white flags had obviously received the death order.

That's why he didn't hesitate to step on the robe and continue to charge.

Because if you don't go forward, you will lose the battle today.

Once defeated today, Jiannu will immediately perish.

So, no matter how much you pay, it's worth it.

The iron hoof trampled on it, and the thousand or so riders who fell to the ground were trampled into flesh in an instant.

But the sacrifice of more than a thousand riders was not without cost. At least in the next minute, the artillery of the Ming army was no longer able to fire the second artillery.

With this 1 minute is enough.

More than 100 steps in the area, it takes more than ten seconds for the cavalry.

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry of the two white flags had approached within fifty paces.

Yan Yingyuan had already come to the front of the formation on the left, holding up the short gun and shouting: "First team, let it go!"

Accompanied by the roar, Yan Yingyuan also pulled the trigger of the blunderbuss forcefully, accompanied by a bang, but Jiannu, who was fifty steps ahead, was unscathed.

Short guns have short range and poor penetration.

However, Yan Yingyuan's gunfire was an order.

In the next instant, thousands of Ming army soldiers lined up pulled the triggers one after another.

The gunpowder smoke rose, and the Jiannu cavalry who charged in the front row fell to the ground one after another.

"The second team, fight!" Yan Yingyuan raised another short gun and pulled the trigger.

While pulling the trigger of the second blunderbuss, he shouted: "Light the fuse!"

The soldiers of the Ming army who came up one after another quickly pressed down their flintlock guns and pulled the trigger.

The soldiers of the Ming army who were on standby in the back row quickly took out the fire twister and lit the fuse.

Another burst of gunshots rang out, and the Jiannu cavalry immediately fell to the next row.

"The third team, fight!" Yan Yingyuan could only lift the short gun that was too short to reload this time.

But the well-trained Guozisheng knew what Yan Yingyuan's gesture meant. Although the Jiannu cavalry had approached at a distance of more than ten steps, the young and passionate Guozisheng still stood still in front of the battle and remained calm. Raising the short blunderbuss, he gave accurate firing orders to the officers and soldiers of the new army behind him.

The third platoon of infantry also pulled the trigger.

"Put the gun on the ground, squat!" After giving the order to fire, he gave the order to raise the gun and squat on the ground.

At the moment when the Jiannu cavalry collided with the Ming army line, three rows of nearly ten thousand soldiers of the new army immediately squatted down, put the bayonet-mounted flintlock guns on the ground, and pointed the shining bayonets at the tide-like waves. Build slave cavalry.

Sooner or later, the Jiannu cavalry rushed to the front of the Ming army's line formation.

Then, without waiting for the slave cavalry on horseback to give orders, the horses instinctively jumped into the air.

No matter how well-trained a war horse is, it still has an instinctive fear of sharp spears, so when the new army on the Ming army line erected their bayonets at the same time, the war horse instinctively chose to fly into the air.

Cavalry is cavalry, and finally broke into the Ming army phalanx.

And in the blink of an eye, several rows of cavalry rushed in.

However, the good times didn't last long. Just as the follow-up Jiannu cavalry were about to rush into the Chinese army's phalanx, hundreds of bright red lights suddenly bloomed from the two oblique corners outside the Ming army's phalanx.

But the minefields laid in advance finally exploded.

The violent explosion of the minefield instantly knocked down several rows of cavalrymen who happened to be in it.

The strong light from the explosion, the huge sonic boom, and the air waves instantly frightened the cavalry behind, and the two white flags that entered from the left and right sides were cut into two in an instant.

Almost [-] cavalry have broken into the Ming army's central square.

More than [-] cavalry broke into the phalanx at each oblique angle in the north and south.

However, the remaining nearly ten thousand cavalry were frightened by the minefields. Before the war horses were appeased, the ten thousand slave cavalry who followed up were unable to charge again.

But Jian Nu was indeed jealous.

The more than [-] cavalry who broke into the phalanx had no intention of turning back to sweep the Ming army line formation at all, but launched a surprise attack on the second line formation that had already stood in line for a while.

Because Jiannu knew very well that as long as they broke into the center of the phalanx and rushed to the watchtower to kill Chongzhen, they would be able to win the war of annihilating the nation, otherwise all that awaited them would be the destruction of the nation.

"Come on, go up to the watchtower, kill Chongzhen! Kill Chongzhen!"

The two yellow-flag military generals leading the team raised their sabers high and howled.

"Kill Chongzhen!" The two white-flag cavalrymen who followed up echoed.

In an instant, the momentum of the two white flags miraculously climbed to the top.

……

On the watchtower, Gao Qiqian, Lu Jiude and other eunuchs panicked.

"Long Live Lord, you can go quickly." Gao Qiqian said with emotion, "Just keep the old slave here."

Gao Qiqian is also used to it, whenever he is in danger, he will replace him with his body, so this time he habitually stood up and wanted to replace Chongzhen and stay on the watchtower.

However, this time he was rejected by Chongzhen.

"I'm not going anywhere." Chongzhen said in a deep voice, "I'm right here."

"Long Live Lord!" Gao Qiqian was really worried about Chongzhen's safety, "Jiannu cavalry has already broken into the formation of the Chinese Army, and they will be able to kill the watchtower two hundred steps ahead! This place is no longer safe, so hurry up. "

"I said, I'm not going anywhere, I'm here." Chongzhen was unmoved at all.

After a short pause, Chongzhen said again: "Today's battle is different from the past. As the emperor, I must personally sit in the central army."

Well, this is actually all pretending. The main reason is that Chongzhen didn't believe that the mere four or five thousand riders of the two white flags could turn the tables. The soldiers of the Ming army and the 4 infantry brigades supported from the 5th and 4th towns can drown these thousands of cavalry slaves.

The current new army is not the old Ming Frontier Army.

The current new army dares to meet Jian Nu's bayonet.

Therefore, what is there to be afraid of, the slave cavalry with four or five thousand horsepower exhausted?
If you don't pretend to be coercive at this time, when will you wait?At this time, if you don't show the courage of the Ming emperor to the soldiers of the three armies, when will you wait?I am not going anywhere in Chongzhen, I am here.

Chongzhen even went to the stairs on the right side of the watchtower.

Then hold a short gun in each of the left and right hands and get ready to fire.

Glancing over the [-] imperial guards lined up below the watchtower, Chongzhen said loudly: "Listen up, I'm not going anywhere, I'm here, and I'll always stay with the soldiers of the new army!"

"The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always exist, long live the Ming Dynasty!"
