Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 230 It's not that the Eight Banners don't work hard, it's that the Ming army is too cunning!

Chapter 230 It's not that the Eight Banners don't work hard, it's that the Ming army is too cunning!
Under Qianlong's order.

Several rocket cars pushed out.

The characteristics are very distinct.

At first glance, it was the Congreve rocket manufactured with the assistance of Great Qingyang consultants in Britain.

With a very long balance bar, it uses an iron-skinned rocket.

It is filled with high-quality black gunpowder.

Originally, the foreign consultants in Britain suggested that white sugar be mixed with gunpowder to make rocket propellants, so that rockets with longer range and stronger thrust could be obtained.

However, the Qing Dynasty has now lost Taiwan, Fujian, and Guangdong, the main sugar producing areas, and it does not produce sugar itself.

And the white sugar in the world is actually only in South China, India,

And around the Caribbean.

Among them, the largest output has to be in South China.

This is the traditional sugar producing area.

So if Daqing wants to buy it by himself.

You can only buy Indian sugar, or Caribbean sugar.

This is all too far.

And it's too expensive.

It is really unusable and unaffordable.

I had to settle for the next best thing and use black powder.

soon.

The rockets of the Qing Dynasty began to howl and rushed towards the Ming army's position.

This rocket is not accurate.

But it can't hold up a lot.

Several rockets landed in the Ming army's position, and a violent explosion occurred.

It is also unclear whether anyone was killed in the explosion - because the smoke was too heavy.

Some rockets landed next to the barbed wire fence of the Ming army, but this time they saw the results of the battle - the violent explosion did not break the wire!

It can be seen that Emperor Qianlong is heartbroken.

Such a way of fighting.

It's all money.

"Beat the drum! Go forward!"

"Destroy Niming! Protect Daqing!"

"Our Eight Banners have no way out!"

"Only by winning this round can we have a future!"

soon.

The three infantry towns moved forward slowly.

At the forefront are rows of fusiliers.

They are all Eight Banners Musketeers in various uniforms.

The bayonets on the flintlocks were pointed skyward.

A forest of bayonets was formed.

On the left and right of the infantry formation, there are field artillery moving forward. Since the artillery range of the Qing army is not as good as that of the Ming army, the Qing army is equipped with a large number of small-caliber field artillery in an attempt to make up for quality with quantity.

And these field artillery will also advance together with the infantry's horizontal formation, and will not start shooting until they reach the front.

The foreign consultants who saw this scene all looked a little dignified.

Just these eight infantry towns.

It is a huge force that cannot be ignored in Europe. Except for a few countries, most European countries cannot resist this powerful Eight Banners!

But it is the Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing Empire who seem so powerful.

When facing the army of the Ming Empire, they didn't take advantage of it at all.

So how powerful is the Ming army?

When the rockets of the Ming army roared towards them.

They all exclaimed.

Unlike the Qing army's rockets, it basically depends on luck.

The technology is also born out of the Congreve Rocket Ming Army Rocket, which canceled the balance bar and used the spin principle to obtain a stable trajectory.

In addition, the rocket propellant of the Ming army added sugar.

More power!

Fly faster.

Of course, the "equivalent" that can be carried is also greater.

The neat parabola accurately rushed towards the infantry formation of the Qing army.

The first rocket hit the front of the Qing infantry formation.

A violent explosion exploded.

The blasted steel pillars swept out a cloud of blood in front of the army formation.

More than a dozen Eight Banners died on the spot.

There are also more than a dozen injured.

Some of them were hit by shrapnel in the arm, the bones were shattered, and the arms were only connected with a little flesh and blood, and they screamed for lung cracking.

But this is not the least distant.

Because of this level of injury.

It hurts for a while.

I will go to see Lord Yama soon.

The really unlucky ones were those with minor injuries.

It doesn't look heavy.

But most of the blasted sand, fragments, and steel balls on his body were embedded in his flesh and blood.

If not taken out in time.

The wound will soon become inflamed and purulent.

The military doctors of the Ming army also had anti-inflammatory and bactericidal drugs such as garlic medicine, and popularized basic trauma treatment methods.

But on the side of the Qing army.

Wound inflammation is basically a dead end.

The difference is to suffer more
And the local doctor of the Qing army dealt with this kind of injury.

Or turn a blind eye.

Rely on immunity to fight hard.

Or, chopping off hands and feet and digging up flesh—it's better than doing nothing, but not by much.

Because there are no conditions for disinfection and sterilization.

After a rocket hit the ground.

What followed was the rocket bomb whizzing away.

Seeing so many rockets coming head-on.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners who had vowed to restore the martial arts of the Eight Banners were immediately discouraged.

The speed of the march was stagnant.

There was confusion in many places.

Boom boom boom!
A violent explosion sounded in front of the Qing army.

Suddenly there were huge casualties.

Seeing those foreign consultants in Britain was frightened.

"too frightening!"

"The firepower on the eastern battlefield is terrifying!"

"With such a casualty rate, how can we fight in the future?"

When the Britons exclaimed.

Qianlong was calm.

Because he has already seen those routines of the Ming army.

at this time.

It is arranged on the Qing army rocket position on the hillside on the side of the formation.

The Rocket Army of the Qing Dynasty ordered the rocket salvo to be ordered brightly.

The target is the Ming army rocket position that just launched the rocket.

Although the accuracy of the Qing army's rockets is worrying.

But I can't stand the number.

As long as there is one rocket concentrated to trigger the sacrificial explosion.

Then Daqing made a lot of money.

"Great Qing Rocket Army! Invincible!"

As hundreds of rockets soared into the sky, Bright suddenly shouted!
on the battlefield.

The Eight Banners soldiers who saw this scene also shouted.

Morale immediately rose.

So many rockets falling down.

In fact, not many Ming soldiers were killed.

But it gave the soldiers of the Eight Banners great confidence.

Immediately.

The footsteps of the cheering Eight Banners Front Army also became much faster.

at the same time.

At the forefront of contact between the two sides.

The infantry on both sides had already started exchanging fire.

There were constant explosions, gunshots, and shouts.

The advance teams sent by the two sides to compete for several strongholds in the center of the battlefield have already started a fierce confrontation.

In the middle of the battlefield.

There are several abandoned villages.

The villagers had already run away.

However, the village fortifications with strong walls were left behind.

The wall is built with rammed earth and stones.

The "composite wall" with rammed earth walls sandwiched between two stone walls is very strong.

Although the houses in the village were burned to ashes.

But the walls of the village are still very strong and tenacious.

And I'm afraid it will be stronger after the fire.

Therefore, these abandoned villages are the points that the advance troops of both sides must compete for.

No matter who is going to attack.

It is best to control these villages in order to cover the prospects of your own troops.

That's right.

The Ming army did not intend to pull out barbed wire to build trenches and then wait for the opponent to attack.

Because they don't have much rations.

The plan specified by the staff of the Ming Army Guards Corps is to seek engagement as soon as possible and defeat the opponent within two days.

Therefore, the Ming army also wanted to take the initiative to attack.

Both sides have a willingness to attack.

So the competition around these strongholds became very fierce.

The Ming army dispatched a battalion of 1000 people.

And the Qing army dispatched an association, 2000 people.

The reason why only so few people were dispatched.

It is because the range of these strongholds is very small.

No matter how much troops are invested, it will not be able to squeeze in.

And now the brigade is confronting each other.

Now is the time for flower bombs.

Generals with a slightly more normal mind know it well.

To fight in this era.

We must rely on "earthwork".

It is necessary to build trenches, bullet craters, and bullet walls that allow infantry to avoid artillery fire.

Then launch an infantry attack after the artillery fire between the two sides.

At this time, the competition for these strongholds.

It is the preparations for the next stage of the offensive made by both sides - after taking these four strongholds, they can rely on these few strongholds to consolidate the offensive results, and then rely on these few strongholds to build fortifications and continue to attack.

But for both sides.

These few strongholds are not so important that they have to fight around here when they come up and get a foothold.

Therefore, not many troops were dispatched.

The two sides also want to try each other's wealth through cutting-edge confrontation.

Cheng Huacheng, who belonged to the 7rd Battalion and [-]th Company of the [-]th Brigade of the Dragon Cavalry of the Ming Army, now led a platoon of soldiers and horses to the village called Gaojiapu.

At this moment, there suddenly appeared at the entrance of the village
They also seem to be the absolute elite of the Qing army.

From a distance, the firearm was leveled, and when it was aimed, it was a volley.

clap clap.

With the sound of gunfire.

Chen Huacheng yelled "Lie down" and threw himself forward.

But beside him, there was still a soldier of the Ming army whose skull was torn off by a bullet.

Blood shot.

Chen Huacheng's eyes changed slightly.

But still crawling forward in a prone position.

"Why are you crawling here?"

The Eight Banners soldiers at the entrance of the village were obviously caught off guard.

It doesn't talk about martial arts too much.

How can climb it?
How to aim while crawling?

Although these Eight Banners soldiers are strange.

But it quickly started loading.

Upon seeing this, Chen Huacheng immediately thrust the gun in his hand forward, aimed and shot.

Snapped!
An Eight Banners soldier in front was shot and fell down.

"shooting!"

Chen Huacheng shouted.

clap clap clap!
With the intensive gunfire, several Eight Banners soldiers in front fell down immediately.

At this time, they had reached fifty steps away from the enemy!
Chen Huacheng suddenly jumped up from the ground.

"Charge! Charge! Great Ming wins! I am invincible!!"

The soldiers of the Ming army who shot out the bullets also shouted under the leadership of the platoon leader Chen Huacheng.

"Da Ming is invincible, I am invincible!"

They carried bayonets.

There is no horizontal line.

It's the skirmish line.

Fifty paces away.

But it takes only a few breaths to run wildly.

Those Eight Banners soldiers are really elite!

"It's too late to reload! Put on the bayonet! Kill them!"

This group of Eight Banners shouted to the general manager.

kill!

Those Eight Banners soldiers immediately drew their bayonets.

He rushed forward while screaming.

Charged forward, Chen Huacheng had already set his sights on the Chief of the Eight Banners.

Hands touched his waist.

When ten steps away from the enemy.

A revolver was drawn.

clap clap clap!
It's three shots to the head and face.

Knock that Eight Banners Legion to the ground.

Then quickly poured out all the remaining three bullets.

Finally, he used the pistol as a hand hammer and slammed it forward, hitting the face of an Eight Banners soldier.

At this time, the two sides finally rushed to the front.

Pfft!

Chen Huacheng is very good at martial arts.

After all, he used to be a hereditary military officer of the Green Camp.

The bayonet in his hand pierced fiercely into the enemy's chest.
The soldiers of the 7rd Battalion and [-]th Company of the [-]th Dragoon Brigade also held their bayonets fiercely and pushed forward fiercely.

A face to face.

Just smash the Eight Banners in front of you!

The leader of the Eight Banners Association, who was watching this battlefield from a distance, jumped up and cursed.

"You can't even beat the Ming army in hand-to-hand combat, and you've lost the face of your ancestors!"

"Master, it's not that our Eight Banners don't work hard, it's that Sui Ming really doesn't pay attention to martial arts!" A Eight Banners beside him lamented.

As soon as they met each other, the other party drew out a pistol first.

How do you fight?
"Yeah, it's not that the Eight Banners don't work hard, it's that the Ming army is too cunning!"

"Send another team to go immediately and suppress them!"
