Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 64 The Qing Army Can Fight

Chapter 64. The Qing army can also fight
The sound of the drum came from the barracks of the Qing army.

"This is Jujianggu, it seems that the Tartars are about to make a move."

After listening carefully for a while, Luo Jiangong said.

Fang Ke didn't pick up the fight. As far as he knew, few of the big clans here in Guangdong supported the Ming army.

However, there are many low-level youngest members of the Tiandihui and the White Lotus Sect, and many congregants are clamoring.

Like the two of them, many eyes on the bank of the river were staring closely at the front.

Not surprisingly.

The first battle between the Ming and Qing Dynasties after more than 100 years is about to begin.

"Everyone, Niming is good at firearms, and has a large number of light mortars that can shoot explosive bullets. The generals may have a good plan."

In the big tent of the Qing army, all the generals gathered together, and Fukang'an was neatly dressed and sat in a high position.

"Marshal, Niming's firearms have a limited range. Although they are farther than shotguns, they are not as good as carrying guns and cannons. Our army only needs guns to guns and cannons to cannons. There is nothing to be afraid of. Lead the troops into battle and take the lead.”

The person who is speaking is Yang Liufang, the supervisor of the Guangdong Green Camp and the left camp general Yang Liufang.

He was born in the Zhenghuang Banner of the Han Army of the Eight Banners.

It can be regarded as the most loyal loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty.

Guangdong Supervising Biao Zuoying is also a relatively elite unit among the Guangdong Green Camp.

That's why Yang Liufang has the confidence to take the lead.

"Okay! Yang Shen will order [-] troops, let's test Niming's strength first!"

Fukang'an said immediately.

These days, Fukang'an has repeatedly heard that the Ming army's navy was sweeping back and forth on both sides of the Pearl River, and the Guangdong Navy was blasted into scum before the first battle.

So of course Fukang'an knew it was impossible to confront the Ming army on the water.

He himself was not good at water combat either.

As for the land battle, what level the Ming army is, Fukang'an himself is not sure.

The legend is heard enough.

How would it really play out.

That's really hard to say.

soon.

Yang Liufang ordered three thousand green battalion soldiers.

Equipped with mother and child cannons, carrying guns, and spears.

Form a huge phalanx and line up in front of the barracks.

Under the banner of Yang Zi.

Yang Liufang waved his hand.

A group of soldiers came up carrying several baskets of copper coins.

"Reward!"

Before going into battle, put a round of rewards first.

This is going to be a desperate effort.

"Your Majesty Yang has an order to reward one tael of silver for going into battle! Three taels of silver for victory! The family members who died in battle raised the flag to be used as a coat for the Han army!"

The orderlies shouted in unison before the formation.

Immediately, the morale of this green battalion was all raised.

Don't think that it is a hard job to enter the Eight Banners to be the coat slave of the Eight Banners master.

This is something that many people wish for.

Entering the Eight Banners for coating is equivalent to entering the "weaving".

In the future, if you have meritorious service, you can raise the flag. After you become the master of the Eight Banners, your descendants will all be nobles in the Qing Dynasty.

In the late Qianlong Dynasty, due to the population expansion of the Eight Banners.

The Eight Banners of the Han Army have begun to expel their membership in large numbers.

If you are alive, you will be rewarded, and if you are dead, your family members will be enlisted in the flag.

Both ends are worthwhile.

Of course, the morale of these local green battalion soldiers is unbelievably high.

Yang Liufang looked at the fighting spirit of her subordinates with satisfaction.

A big wave.

"Get out!"

Accompanied by bursts of gongs and drums.

Three thousand green battalion soldiers rumbled out of the barracks and pressed towards the camp of the Ming army.

"coming!"

Of course, the Ming army reacted very quickly.

In fact, even if the Qing army does not move, the Ming army is already ready to fight.

The purpose of this battle is to tell Fukang Anming's powerful combat effectiveness.

He must gather all the Qing troops in Guangdong to be able to win.

"The morale is very high, and the layout is also very good. That is the small rapid artillery used by the Qing army?"

Napoleon is holding up a telescope to observe the Qing army marching out.

The first is four horizontal teams, using guns that are mounted on the shoulders to shoot.

Then, on both sides of these four horizontal formations, there are about 20 sub-cannons, all mounted on human carts, and pushed forward with the army formation.

The sub-cannon is a light artillery that can be loaded and fired quickly. It has a short range and mainly shoots shotguns.

In addition, there are six long-barreled guns, the caliber is not large, but the barrels are very thick, and they are also placed on the cart and pulled away by several mules.anus
And behind this burst of firearms is a line of cold weapons.

In the middle are four rows of spearmen and horses.

The two wings are guarded by rattan soldiers.

The compound army formed by muskets, light artillery, and cold weapons is the combat characteristic of the Qing army in this era.

If it is the Eight Banners soldiers.

Cavalry and archers will also be added.

After the appearance of muskets, bows and arrows were not eliminated immediately. In fact, bows and arrows were used in the Qing army until the [-]th century.

During the Opium War, bows and arrows were still equipped with the Qing army.

Of course, it is much more difficult to train such an army formed by a mixture of various weapons than simply using a flintlock with a bayonet.

That's why Napoleon praised the Green Army soldiers of the Qing army who were going out.

"Judging from the formation of this army, they can be regarded as a force that should not be underestimated in the east."

Napoleon sighed.

Zhu Daohua nodded when he heard the words: "It seems that this king has underestimated the opponent. After all, this is the Qianlong Dynasty, isn't it."

Zhu Daohua didn't go any further when he said this.

The Qing army in the Qianlong Dynasty was really different from the Qing army in the Opium War decades later.

The Qing army in this era still had a lot of actual combat experience.

In particular, the war between the Qing Dynasty and Zhungeer lasted for nearly a hundred years.

Finally, it was during Qianlong.

The Qing Dynasty completely defeated Zhungeer and slaughtered all of Zhungeer.

It was able to go deep into the northwest to fight against the extinct Zhungeer tribe, and it was also able to cross the Himalayas and attack the Qing army of the Khalkha tribe.

It is also normal for some troops that can fight in the army formation.

Moreover, Fukang'an, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, was a famous general in the Qianlong Dynasty, and his means of commanding troops were not bad.

"Not what?"

Napoleon glanced at Zhu Daohua suspiciously.

"It's nothing, how do we deal with it? Their guns and sub-cannons have a longer range than the flintlock guns and small-caliber mortars we use. Do we need to send out the artillery battery?"

The large-caliber mortars equipped by the artillery company can launch shelling outside the range of the Qing army's carrying guns and sub-cannons.

But there is a risk of being bombarded by six long-barreled smoothbore guns of the Qing army.

Looks like there's going to be some casualties this time around.
Boss Zhu thought.

"Let the Jaeger Company go out, knock out the opponent's cannons first with skirmish tactics, and then let the first infantry battalion prepare for a column assault!"

Boss Zhu hasn't come up with a good solution yet.

Napoleon had already begun to make arrangements.

With the continuous expansion of the war scale of the Ming army.

Napoleon is also getting more and more into the state.

From being a rookie commander at the beginning, he has already begun to look like the most powerful general in the [-]th century.

"We have experimented with some new tactics during this period, and it seems that they can come in handy now."

Napoleon turned his head and smiled.

　Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a reward.
