If Zhu Cihong saw the knives taken out by Cao Mutan's subordinate birds, he would definitely be stunned by the learning ability of the Eight Banners soldiers in this era.

Now it is only more than five months before the battle of Dagukou, and the Tartars have actually learned even bayonets!

However, instead of learning to sleeve bayonets, they used plugged bayonets - because the Battle of Dagukou was one-sided, and they were not able to capture a sample of the bayonet. Moreover, the sleeve bayonet was not as durable and easy to make as the plug-in bayonet, so the Qing army, which had a limited number of craftsmen, chose the bayonet stuffed into the mouth...... It's a bayonet, not a stab. Again, this was different from the new army, because so far, the Qing army had rarely encountered a well-defended enemy. The use of a bayonet is clearly more practical than the use of a spur, which is actually an armor-piercing cone.

In addition, the Tartar Han Army's firecrackers did not give up the sword soldiers, but used a combination of swords and cards to cover the firecrackers - the reason they did this was that the number of firecrackers was insufficient, although through strict punishment, the Qing Dynasty could get good quality firearms. However, due to the limited number of craftsmen controlled by the Eight Banners system, it was not possible to produce firecrackers in large quantities.

The second is related to the special organizational structure of the Eight Banners, which are divided into three levels: Bannermen, Armor Bearers and Baoyi Aha. The bannerman was usually a Manchurian master, the armor-wearing man was a descendant, and the clothed Aha was a slave.

However, this identity is not fixed forever, but can be promoted. Baoyi Aha can also be promoted to an armored person or an official in the capacity of Baoyi, and Fan Wencheng is a university scholar in the capacity of Baoyi Ahab.

Because of this upward channel, some of the Bao Yi who were tamed by the Eight Banners Uncle were also willing to make meritorious contributions in the army. Kong Youde's Red Banner Han Army also has a coat in the army, and the firecrackers cannot be given to them, but the sword player can be a pawn.

"Knife player! Dead soldiers! Charge! ”

"Birdmen! Sharp Soldiers! Pressing the array! ”

"Heavy Soldiers, Fill the Ammunition ......"

Seeing that all the sword players stood up and stood up, and the bird soldiers also loaded their bayonets, Cao Charcoal gave orders one after another, commanding the sword soldiers and bird soldiers to launch an attack, and at the same time asked the soldiers holding turtledoves to reload their guns and wait for the opportunity to fire again.

......

When Duoduo arrived with the white-armored soldiers with white flags, the battle outside the Pingxing Pass had ended, and Kong Youde's firecrackers had already put the turtledove's foot firearms under the low Pingxingguan City, crackling and suppressing the Dashun army on the pass.

"Slave Kong Youde see Prince Yu!"

Seeing Kong Youde come up to see him, Duoduo smiled and waved his horsewhip, "Excuse me, excuse me, be obedient to the king, how is the fight going here?" Will I be able to enter tonight? ”

"Back to the prince," Kong Youde smiled, "The rogues on the Pingxing Pass are vulnerable, and when the minions prepare the ladder, they will be able to attack it in a wave." ”

"Good!" Duoduo smiled, "Gong Shun King, after the Pingxing Pass, can your people still move?" ”

"Move!" Kong Youde patted his chest, "The sons and daughters are holding back their strength to fight the world for the Qing Dynasty!" ”

"Good! That's all I have to do! Duoduo said with a smile, "After breaking the Pingxing Pass, this king will give you another 300 Baya soldiers, and you will take them and the Zhenghongqi Han army to Fanzhi and Daizhou to pounce." Don't delay the time for looting along the way, this time we are not here to rob things, but to seize the world!

Remember, you have to run with Nikan on the flat gate, but don't kill them all...... Let them go around and talk about the bravery of our Eight Banner Heavenly Soldiers, so that those Nikan Liukou will not dare to fight against my Great Banner Heavenly Soldiers! ”

"Wow!"

......

Looking down from the hills, I saw camps, black and lined up in the valley floor west of Jingcheng County.

The sky has already fallen into the night, in the night sky, the stars are twinkling, and a bright moon is hanging high, which is a good time to fight a night attack.

But when about 4,000 elite soldiers from Liu Fangliang and Luo Hu, who participated in tonight's night attack, were in place, Li Zicheng was a little hesitant.

Because what was unfolding in front of him now was a series of extremely well-organized camps, which extended to the outside of Jingcheng County at the end of the sight. The strong aura of soldiers and slaughter enveloped the four fields.

Wu Sangui's Guanning Army had long been on the front line of confrontation with the powerful Qing army. This army may not be good at attacking, but it is definitely good at defending. Otherwise, he would have been driven away from Ning Yuanwei by the Eight Banners.

Now their enemy has been replaced by the Dashun army, which is slightly weaker in combat, but the tradition of good defense is still in play. Wu Sangui's camp was all dug into moats, trees were fenced, and high arrow towers were built every dozens of steps. Each battalion can probably accommodate up to 1,500 people, which is almost a war barracks.

Nearly thirty camps are quietly hidden in the night. Each camp is less than 150 paces apart, and the passage between the camps can be blocked with a strong bow and a firebolt. From time to time, small groups of soldiers with pine resin torches patrolled back and forth between the various camps, making a burst of banging sounds. In addition to these voices announcing peace, the entire camp is quiet.

Judging from the analysis of the strictness and quietness of this camp, Li Zicheng knew that Wu Sangui's army may not have high morale, but it still maintained strict discipline and strong combat effectiveness.

It was when Li Zicheng was hesitating, Luo Hu came to him at some point, and after saluting, he began to report: "Emperor, there is no long trench in front of the Wu thief's camp, which is convenient for us to sneak attack!"

In addition, the patrol post of the Wu thief was not far away, walking around the camp, and it was also easy to avoid with torches. ”

"Emperor, let's fight!" Liu Fangliang said to Li Zicheng, "It's all here, it's too bad to go back without fighting!" ”

Liu Zongmin also said: "It's not convenient to use firearms at night, it's nothing more than hand-to-hand combat, and ironclad soldiers are difficult to penetrate, so they can definitely win!" ”

Li Zicheng took a deep breath and nodded heavily: "He's N, it's time to give Wu Sangui a little color to take a look...... Fang Liang, Luo Hu, be careful, let's concentrate on breaking one or two of his camps, and accept it when we see it! ”

"Command!"

"Obey the order!"

Li Zicheng nodded, and said to Liu Zongmin: "Huang Hu, let your people prepare as well...... When Fang Liang and Huang Hu got their hands on it, they raised the fire and beat the drum to make the movement bigger! ”

"Howler!" Liu Zongmin also smiled and bowed his hand and led the order.

......

The position of Li Zicheng and the others was already close to Wu Sangui's camp, and the distance was only three or five miles. Leaving the mountain where they were, there was a flat river. Because many days before, the Dashun army sent a large number of night retreats to approach the Wu army's camp, and launched a fierce battle with the night patrol cavalry of the Wu army, forcing them to the left of the camp.

Therefore, the elite soldiers of the 2,000 children's battalion under Luo Hu and the elite of Liu Fangliang's 2,000 iron man battalion were able to follow the moonlight and look at the phalanx at the bottom of the hillside.

Because it was a sneak attack in a night battle, Luo Hu and Liu Fangliang had no intention of fighting in a formation. He didn't carry long-range weapons such as bows and arrows and firearms, but just used a cart to push some tiger squat cannons, ready to be set up outside Wu Sangui's camp and fight inward.

In addition, the long-handled weapons did not carry much, but some of the stronger soldiers carried axes, ready to cut down the wooden fence of the Wu army camp.

The targets of the attack were also carefully selected, and they were two camps located in the right front of the Wu army's camp. Liu Zongmin personally led 5,000 people to ambush on the hillside in front of the left side of the Wu army's camp, and prepared many torches, drums, and bugle guns. As soon as Luo Hu and Liu Fangliang started, they would raise fire, beat drums and fire cannons, making a big fanfare, making Wu Sangui scratch his head.

At this time, Luo Hu had already taken advantage of the moonlight to descend the hillside where Li Zicheng was located, and arrived among his brothers in the children's camp. These "children" are all soldiers personally selected by Luo Hu, and they are the most loyal to Dashun. Even though Li Zicheng's reward was far lower than they expected, they were still willing to fight for the Dashun Dynasty!

Luo Hu looked at the little brothers who were pressed by the black, and thought to himself: The emperor will not let everyone down, and when this battle is over, there should be a heavy reward.

Thinking of this, he took a sharp breath, and his eyes were already full of murderous energy: "Let's go!" ”
