Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 437 Doduo Was Sniped

Jiao Lian's Third Brigade of the Second Cavalry Army consisted of five battalions, plus two cavalry field artillery teams.

Now that the three battalions have suppressed the Eight Banners force led by Duoduo from three sides, Jiao Lian personally led two other cavalry battalions who intercepted the Eight Banners force and directly cut into the Eight Banners force.

The reason why the Eight Banners are powerful lies in their riding and shooting skills.

Now, due to being suppressed by the firepower of the imperial guards, his cavalry and shooting advantages cannot be brought into play, which led to Jiao Lian being able to easily rush into his camp to fight with him.

At this time, Jiao Lian and the two cavalry battalions behind him were directly inserted into these Eight Banners camps full of money and mouse tails like a sharp lightning bolt.

As soon as the steel knife in his hand was slashed, flesh and blood flew all over the place. Some Eight Banners heavy armored soldiers tried to directly confront the soldiers of the Imperial Guards, but unexpectedly, the Imperial Guards directly rolled over with thunder, blowing up the man seven or eight dollars.

As for the lightly armored soldiers, the latest scimitar made of alloy steel in the hands of the imperial guards can easily cut through their armor. However, the extremely malleable armor, unless the force is too strong and directly damages its internal organs, it is relatively difficult to cut through the vitals of the Imperial Guard soldiers.

This is the technological advantage created by the development of iron and steel smelting technology. Because of this advantage, the Imperial Guard soldiers dare to fight these Eight Banners without any scruples.

What's more, these are all veterans who fought with Jiannu, and they can be calm when fighting close to the body, and these Eight Banners soldiers are not really heavenly soldiers, and they will still bleed after being cut in the neck with a knife.

In direct hand-to-hand combat at close range, it may be important who has the best martial arts and who has the greatest strength. The most important thing is who is more fearless of death.

Since the general Jiao Lian personally took the lead in fighting fiercely, the other fighters did not have the slightest fear of fighting, and what they killed was passionate and bloody.

……

Duoduo didn't expect that the battle would go like this, so he had to order someone to deliver a message to Huang Taiji, explaining that the main force of the army had been attracted by him to the Iron Horse Fort, and at the same time he personally raised his knife to kill the Ming army in front of him. The army retreated directly.

But the fighting continued until the afternoon and there was no intention of stopping. Under the leadership of Jiao Lian, the two battalions of the imperial guards had been rampaging in the camp of the Eight Banners soldiers. The three battalions of the imperial guards immediately fired with muskets, forcing these Eight Banners soldiers to mix with Jiao Lian's two battalions, so that the other three battalions of the Imperial Guards could only fire in bursts.

Duoduo was depressed. He couldn't tolerate a Ming army rampaging in his camp. He had already seen that the leader of the Ming army was the chief officer of this Ming army, so he decided to draw his bow and shoot this man with an arrow.

But what he didn't know was that there was also a sharpshooter on the side of the Imperial Guard holding a rifle that Da Ming rarely had at present, hiding behind other soldiers of the Imperial Guard and aiming at him.

It's not just targeting Duoduo, almost all the Eight Banners heavy armor soldiers with strong combat effectiveness are the objects of special care.

A bullet from a rifle flew towards Duduo with a puff of white smoke. As soon as Duduo raised his knife, a bullet shot directly into his temple. Immediately afterwards, his Tianling cover was directly overturned, and a piece of money Rat Tail flew straight into the sky.

This scene made Duduo's soldiers and coats really see, and someone shouted in Manchu: "Baile is dead!"

Anyway, the morale of the Eight Banners soldiers immediately plummeted like a punctured balloon.

kill!

Seeing this, the other three battalions of the Imperial Guard immediately rushed in, drew out their slender sabers, and slashed at these Eight Banners soldiers!
The cavalry field artillery team also temporarily abandoned the field artillery and came galloping with long knives.

Jiao Lian, whose face was already covered in blood, killed even more vigorously, and the white robe he was wearing had been dyed blood red.

But at this time, the Eight Banners soldiers no longer have the will to fight to the death. They are a military group that maintains cohesion by violent plunder, and an organization that defines the hierarchical order by the relationship between slaves and masters.

Now that their master is Duoduo, and there is no temptation to plunder, these Eight Banners soldiers and a group of slaves have no object of allegiance, so they have to run as hard as they can, and even surrender directly, trying to continue to be slaves.

On the contrary, the third brigade of the Imperial Guard Cavalry had the strongest morale. If they were a little nervous at the beginning, they didn't even have the slightest bit of anxiety now. They were all eager to kill a few A tartar, can earn more credit.

Zhu Youxiao did not abolish the method of the Imperial Guards earning money by killing the heads of Tartars just because they were the Imperial Guards. After reaching the end of the money mouse, the greed in the heart is still aroused like seeing countless gold and silver treasures. After all, no one wants to be troubled by money.

Only a small number of Eight Banners soldiers escaped from the pursuit of the Third Brigade of the Imperial Guard, and most of the rest were annihilated by the Third Brigade of the Imperial Guard Cavalry.

Even though he already had cavalry field artillery and firearms that crossed the ages, Jiao Lian did not expect that he could easily defeat Jiannu, a Gushan Eight Banners force, and let Huang Taiji's fifteenth younger brother Duoduo die.

Such a record is almost impossible to appear in the past history of Ming Dynasty, but it is indeed a fact now.

Even, the number of casualties on the side of the Imperial Guard was not large. In the face of absolute superiority in firepower, these classical troops that still relied on individual combat capabilities and strong bows to dominate the battlefield did not have any chance of winning at all.

After annihilating Duduo, a force of the Eight Banners, Jiao Lian of the Imperial Guard immediately sent someone to pass the news to Lu Xiangsheng, and he himself rushed to the direction of Yaoziling according to the previous plan to strengthen the second and third armies of the Imperial Guard. the power of.

And Lu Xiangsheng was equally astonished when he learned that Jiao Lian's troops had dealt with Duduo, a force of the Eight Banners, so quickly. The main force of the Eight Banners is no longer a problem, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

However, now is not the time to analyze these, so the performance of Jiao Lian's department further convinced Lu Xiangsheng to annihilate the main force of slavery in the Yaoziling area in one fell swoop.

Jiannu Huang Taiji also learned about the annihilation of Duoduo's tribe, and also knew that his fifteenth brother had died, but he really didn't expect this to happen, which made him have to admit that Daming The imperial guards are indeed powerful, and it is no wonder that they were able to wipe out the Khalkha and Horqin tribes.

At this time, Huang Taiji naturally regarded Jiao Lian's troops as the main force of the Imperial Guards of the Ming Dynasty, because in his opinion, only the main force could wipe out his own Eight Banners forces in Gushan so quickly.

But what Huang Taiji didn't know was that he still underestimated the strength of the Daming Guards.

At this time, he was still rushing towards Dushikou with most of the main force. In his opinion, even though the imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty are powerful, as long as he avoids confronting them head-on and goes deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, he can disturb them. Tranquility, and then find a fighter.
