Kong Youde was moved by his words, he held the telescope vividly, and looked south of Xiaoling River from time to time.

I saw that the Ming army on the south bank of the river was densely packed, and they were all standing in a gentle formation, behind the artillery array of the Tianwu Army.

Crossing the river and grabbing the beach is a series of very complex tactics, which require a strong organizational ability of all parties, and the undisciplined army will play this in a chaotic manner.

Kong Youde wanted to bombard the Tianwu Army indiscriminately, but the position of the Tianwu Army was outside the range of the Hongyi cannon, and the pontoon bridge was narrow and in the water, so hitting it with solid bullets was simply a waste of shells.

Kong Youde thought about it and felt that if he wanted to control the overall situation, he could only destroy the artillery array of the Tianwu Army first, and then block the artillery by the river to shoot shotguns.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

The Qing army's position was the first to open fire, and a wave of shells hit, like hail, smashed into the artillery array of the Tianwu army, stirring up a burst of mud on the river bank.

The artillery array of the Tianwu Army was still arranged, and in the face of the artillery of the Qing army, they were surprised at first, and then continued to arrange and adjust the position and direction of the artillery.

In front of the artillery of the Tianwu Army, a thick sandbag bunker had already been arranged to resist the opponent's shells.

In this era, artillery fired basically solid bullets, relying on impact to hurt the enemy, and after smashing to the ground, it could also rely on extremely strong force to hurt people all the way, but the bunker could effectively defend against artillery strikes.

The artillery array of the Tianwu Army is almost full of sandbags, and each artillery is surrounded by bunkers on three sides, and the complex layout of the entire artillery array looks like a labyrinth when viewed from the sky.

Wan Junjie, the commander of the heavy artillery brigade, held a monocular, and when he saw that the Qing army was the first to attack, he couldn't help but scold: "These two Tartars, good Han people are inappropriate, but they want to surrender the Tartars and comb an ugly pig tail, what is this thing called!" ”

The armor and weapons worn by the Eight Banners Manchurian soldiers and the Han army are completely different, it is very easy to distinguish, Wan Junjie feels relieved for the compatriots opposite, but he is not soft-hearted at all, and the two Tartars who have died under his cannon in recent years are much more than the real Tartars.

Wan Junjie glanced at the artillery array, and saw that the arrangement was almost complete, so he ordered: "All artillery battalions are ready!" ”

One by one, the observers came over and reported to Wan Junjie the distance of the Qing soldiers on the other side, he drew his sword and let out a shout: "Open the cannon!" ”

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ........"

The artillery position shook for a while, making a deafening sound of artillery, and more than 300 Hongyi cannons roared one after another, creating a movement like the ground shaking the mountains, and the gunners were all battled by artillery fire for a long time, and many people were shaken by this huge vibration and stood unsteadily and sat on the ground.

The thick smoke and dust instantly covered the thick figures of each artillery, and hundreds of cannons of more than ten catties roared and rushed towards the Qing artillery array on the opposite bank!

There was a roar, and one iron bullet after another roared, kicking up clouds of dirt and dust, sweeping away a bloody road, a large number of artillery pieces were overturned, and the artillerymen were killed.

Seeing that the shells were coming again, the Han gunners next to the artillery scattered in a bang, looking for cover, if they were hit by the shells, they would basically be scrapped, this is not a joke.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

When the Tianwu Army finished a round of fighting, the Wuzhen Chaoha artillery battalion also launched a counterattack, but most of their shells hit the sandbags of the bunker and were stopped and stopped.

Kong Youde, who was holding the binoculars, was stunned for a while, feeling that the start was a little bad, the artillerymen couldn't see the situation on the other side, but he clearly saw that this couldn't hurt at all.

Kong Youde's ability to learn and sell is still not small, and he said with an idea: "Quick, build an earthen wall in front of the gun truck!" ”

It didn't take long for the deafening sound of artillery from the Tianwu Army's artillery array again, and waves of large iron balls smashed into the Qing army's artillery array.

The heavy solid iron ball bounced inside and outside the artillery array of the Qing army, the smoke and dust, sandwiched with blood, and the whistling cannon instantly tore the Qing troops who had temporarily built the earthen wall, and many people dropped their shovels and prostrated on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

Kong Youde, as an artillery expert, felt insulted, and he shouted: "Transfer the Tianyou Cheering General Cannon and the Shenwei General Cannon, as well as the follow-up artillery, all pull them up!" ”

The Tianyou Cheering General Cannon is Hou Jin's self-proclaimed red-clothed cannon, and the Shenwei General Cannon is a heavy artillery, with five catties of medicine, and can hit more than a dozen catties of cannons, which is very powerful.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty cast a large number of red-coated cannons, including many Shenwei general cannons, plus a lot of captured from the Ming army over the years, Kong Youde has a special team of artillery instructors, and his Wuzhen Chaoha artillery battalion cannot be underestimated.

Historically, when the Qing army entered the customs, Kong Youde's artillery troops attacked the city all the way, and no one in the artillery units of the Ming army was their opponent.

After a few rounds of fighting, the follow-up artillery of the Qing army has been continuously pulled, and the number of their Shenwei general's artillery has gradually increased.

The range of the Shenwei General Cannon was four or five miles, and the raindrops of shells fell on the front and back of the Tianwu Army's artillery array, or in the center, and some Qing artillery shells bombarded the bunker in front of the artillery array, bringing up a large stream of dirt and flying sideways.

The Qing artillery was in waves, the ground seemed to be shaking all the time, the sound of bombardment shells falling to the ground was endless, and numerous solid iron balls were jumping and rolling on the ground next to the artillery carriages and bunkers.

Although the gunners were hiding behind the mud bags in the bunkers, the number of shells that were jumping and rolling still caused them a lot of casualties.

The Qing battalion was so fierce that many people did not expect, countless mud bags were broken, a large area of dirt was splashed, and from time to time the artillery of the heavy artillery brigade rolled down in pools of blood, screaming miserably, and beside them, some broken limbs remained.

Wan Junjie, the commander of the Heavy Artillery Brigade, got up in disgrace, and just then a large iron ball weighing more than a dozen catties shot at the bunker next to him, and the bunker made of thick mud bags collapsed.

He was frightened and roared, "Fuck it! ”

More than 100 Shenwei generals on both sides were bombarding each other, bringing earth-shattering momentum, alarming the armies on both sides of the Xiaoling River, and for a while, more than 100,000 people looked at the artillery formations on both sides in a daze.

"Hahaha! Well played! Kong Youde laughed out loud, feeling very happy.

A Portuguese devil next to him was also smiling, very confident in the gunners he taught, their gunners not only had systematic artillery knowledge, but also had a fixed charge pack, and the loading speed was very fast.

But what made him curious was, why was the artillery on the Ming army's side so strong? Is there also a special person to teach? After thinking about it, he shook his head again, Sun Yuanhua of the Ming Kingdom was killed by the Ming court, who else would pay attention to the cultivation of artillery?

Seeing that the artillery array of the Tianwu Army was suppressed so much that he couldn't raise his head, Huang Taiji put down the binoculars and nodded secretly, Kong Youde is not in vain!

The Qing princes and ministers around him also laughed, secretly happy, and some even ridiculed, Tianwu Army is nothing more than that!
