Chapter 295: Angry Yue Tuo

It has to be said that after decades of conquest, under the leadership of Nurhachi, the Jurchens are at their peak in terms of combat effectiveness, combat experience, and fighting spirit that is not afraid of death. Although the hollow phalanx of the Jiangning Army was proved to be the most successful in dealing with cold weapons after the actual combat test of another time and space, Nurhachi, as the commander, quickly noticed the advantages and disadvantages of this phalanx.

In general, the Ming army battle formation was composed of several hollow phalanxes, and these hollow phalanxes were surrounded by firecrackers and inside were artillery. The advantage of the hollow phalanx is that it does not have any dead ends of firepower, no matter which direction the enemy attacks it, it can quickly react and strike at the incoming enemy, especially its artillery is even sharper, they are not only light and the firepower is also extremely fierce, and the enemy can be covered by artillery fire from all directions.

But then again, nothing in the world is perfect, and the same is true of hollow phalanxes. In Nurhachi's view, as long as the superior forces are concentrated to surround the opponent and attack it, as long as the strength of the attack exceeds the capacity of the hollow phalanx, then the hollow phalanx is bound to collapse.

After seeing that Du Du's attack was fruitless, Yue Tuo was forced to join the battle in advance, Nurhachi decisively ordered Mang Gurtai, who was wandering around the periphery to contain the Ming army, also attacked the Ming army, its plan was very simple, that is, to use the cavalry's high mobility and strong attack power to impact the Ming army's large array, in his opinion, the Ming army's will to fight was too far behind the Jurchen warriors, as long as it could break through, the follow-up cavalry could swarm in, and the collapse of the Jiangning army was also overnight.

In Yang Feng's special car, Zheng Toniang and Xianniang looked at the image from the drone in the sky from the screen, and their faces were a little pale.

Looking down from the sky, the large array composed of nine hollow phalanxes was like a square, and around the large array, there were countless cavalry rushing towards them like hungry wolves, their eyes were fierce, their faces were hideous, and their mouths let out incomprehensible shouts, holding their weapons high and rushing towards them like a wave, and they were about to swallow up the Ming army in the middle.

In fact, the pale ones are not only Zheng Tuoniang and Xianniang. On the other side of the middle phalanx, the three daughters of Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe and Da Yu'er did not sit in the cart, but were taken by Yang Feng to a slightly higher slope, and the three daughters looked at the cavalry who were rushing towards them like wolves and tigers in the distance, and their expressions were very complicated.

The three girls are wearing the traditional camouflage uniforms of the Jiangning Army today, and the camouflage uniforms that originally looked a little bloated are worn on the bodies of the three women, but they wear a different kind of flavor, making them more charming, pure or pretty, and Zhezhe, whose belly is already slightly raised, has an intoxicating maternal atmosphere.

Yang Feng withdrew his gaze from a distance and said to Zhezhe and Da Yu'er: "Zhezhe, Da Yu'er, you have also seen the battle situation today, the situation is extremely dangerous. If the big array is broken later, I'm afraid it will be difficult for these thousands of Jiangning troops to be spared, what I want to say is that if the big array is broken later, you can show your identity, I think the Jurchen Tartars will not embarrass you, after all, you have ......"

"Yang Feng, shut up for me!"

Yang Feng's words were interrupted by Zhezhe before he finished speaking, Zhezhe, who has always been known for being virtuous, was very angry today. With tears in her big eyes, she pointed at Yang Feng tremblingly and shouted, "Yang Feng, what do you mean?" What do you think of me and Bumu Butai, do you really think of us as women who are water-based poplars in the twilight of the Qin Dynasty?

Be...... Bumu Butai and I used to be the Fujin of Huang Taiji, and then we were bullied by you bastard, so much so that we became pregnant with your child and followed you back to the Central Plains, but this doesn't mean that I am a woman who can do my best, do you think that if we were not willing, Da Yu'er and I would follow you back to the Central Plains? ”

Da Yu'er also looked at Yang Feng angrily with unhappy eyes: "I didn't expect my aunt and I to be such people in your heart." Yes, my aunt and I used to marry Huang Taiji, but so what, if it weren't forcible by you, the villain...... Forcibly bullied me and my aunt, how could the two of us like you bastard, and now we have the cheekiness to follow you back to Daming, but you say such bastard words, are you worthy of us? In the end, Da Yu'er's voice was already crying, and big tears slipped down her face.

Seeing Da Yu'er crying like a tearful person, Hai Lanzhu on the side hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her sister, glaring at her husband fiercely: "Ah Feng, I know that you Han people all require women to start from the beginning." My aunt and Bu Mu Bu Tai Er were married before, but now that they are willing to go back with you, it means that they have approved of you, but instead of cherishing it, you said such hurtful words, so why don't you quickly apologize to my aunt and Bu Mu Butai! ”

Seeing that the three girls were furious together, Yang Feng could only shake his head helplessly. The reason why it took the time to come here when the military situation was urgent was also to prepare for the worst, because he came over to explain it, but now it seems that he did something wrong with good intentions.

"Well, I was wrong just now."

Yang Feng stepped forward and hugged the three daughters and kissed them on the face, "It was mine just now, I shouldn't doubt you, I will compensate you." Zhezhe, don't be angry, be careful of the fetal gas, Bumu Butai you are the same, women will always become ugly when they pout. Also, Hai Lanzhu, you have to help me watch the two of them, if they dare to say bad things about me behind my back, you have to tell me immediately, I will "punish" them fiercely, and I will definitely make them cry and shout to admit their mistakes to me! Okay, that's it, I'll go first! ”

After speaking, Yang Feng let go of the three girls, jumped on the war horse, and ran forward.

Looking at Yang Feng's appearance, the three girls all "spitted" at his back, and then the three girls looked at each other and laughed shyly......

When Yang Feng returned to the command post, he looked at the Tartars around him who were rushing towards them, and his face also showed a solemn expression. The situation encountered today is even more dangerous than the last battle of Dry Grass Ridge, you must know that the last battle of Dry Grass Ridge only faced more than 20,000 Houjin Tartars, but today he is facing a large army led by the thief chief Nurhachi who has gathered most of the troops of the Dajin Kingdom, and its difficulty is naturally not the same. The reason why he made such an instruction to the third girl just now was actually to plan for the worst.

Now he gave the order without thinking: "Artillery battalion, except for the 123rd phalanx, the artillery in the rest of the phalanx immediately bombards the surrounding enemies freely, and the trebuchets immediately throw thistles around!" ”

"The artillery battalion understands!"

Qiu Disheng's voice came over the intercom.

In the cavalry brigade in front of the big array, Yue Tuo brandished his long knife and shouted: "Dajin warriors, speed up, as long as we can rush into the big array of the Ming army, we will win, those cowardly Han dogs will only hide in their turtle shells and tremble, all you have to do is to knock open their turtle shells, stab your steel knives into their stomachs, and kill their intestines!" ”

As a person who has fought with the Jiangning army, Yue Tuo knows the power of the hollow phalanx of the Jiangning army, last time he led tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry and red flag cavalry to attack the formation, with the speed of the cavalry into the Ming army's large array, but he never thought that he fell into the trap of the Jiangning army, and was stunned by the Jiangning army.

In the various hollow phalanxes of the Ming army, all the gunners were busy.

Reload ...... launch

Reload...... Re-launch ......

Six- and twelve-pound flowering shells flew out of the barrels of their guns and flew forward under the impetus of gunpowder, while beside them there were other gunners who put bags of cloth into the trebuchet's spoon, and a fuse protruded from them, and when one of the gunners lit the fuse, the gunners next to them would shout, "Go!" ”

The two gunners behind him pulled the rope hard, and the cloth bag was projected by the trebuchet and landed far in front of the phalanx, and after the cloth bag hit the ground, there was a banging explosion. With the sound of the explosion, the cloth bag was exploded in an uproar, and countless thistles were scattered around, and soon the surrounding fifty to two hundred meters around the Ming army's array were all surrounded by a layer of thistles.

This tactic was also pioneered by the Jiangning Army, in order to stop or delay the attack of the enemy cavalry.

"Rush up...... Hurry up! Yue Tuo desperately ordered the vest soldiers to speed up, at this time Yue Tuo had only one goal in mind, that is, to break through the phalanx of the Jiangning army, as long as he could achieve this goal, he would not care about anything else.

"Boom ......"

A twelve-pound flowering bullet fell less than twenty meters away from him, and the huge shock wave was accompanied by shrapnel and projectiles flying everywhere, and seven or eight cavalrymen within more than ten meters of the explosion point were either dismounted by the shock wave or were beaten to pieces by the projectiles and shrapnel.

But that's not the most important thing, the most important thing is that many of their battles are frightened by the loud explosions of cannonballs, knowing that horses are actually very timid animals, although trained horses can bravely charge forward with swords, guns and arrows under the control of their masters, but that is only relative.

These war horses have not received the training to charge in the explosion, when the shells exploded around, many war horses were immediately frightened, many war horses began to jump around the battlefield, and some even ran backwards, for a time the original neat charge formation began to become chaotic, the speed of the charge naturally slowed down, and the charge formation slowed down, and naturally endured more shells.

In fact, not only Yue Tuo, but even the cavalry with the white flag led by Mang Gurtai was the same, when the shells exploded around, those war horses that had never been trained by the sound of gun explosions also began to be frightened, and the originally good offensive formation became messy.

Nurhachi, who was watching the battle from behind, saw that his face became more and more difficult to look at, he didn't expect that the plan he had high hopes for would be at risk of miscarriage. He said to the herald with a calm face: "Blow the trumpet immediately, let Yue Tuo and Mang Gurtai break through the Ming army's military formation no matter what, otherwise military law will be engaged!" ”

"Huh!"

The herald answered loudly, and soon a hurried trumpet sounded.

The surrounding generals secretly glanced at Nurhachi, whose face was gloomy, and no one dared to speak up at this time, and no one jumped out to make such a stupid suggestion as continuing to send reinforcements.

After all, the people here are all veteran old men except for Dolgon, of course, they know that it is already the limit to besiege the Ming army with 10,000 cavalry and thousands of remaining foot soldiers, after all, the battle area of the Ming army is so large, even if you send more troops over, you can only stare dryly from behind. Therefore, Nurha Chikong has tens of thousands of troops, but he can only watch Du Du, Yue Tuo and Mang Gurtai lead the men and horses to surround the Ming army and attack fiercely.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

The artillery in the large array kept firing, and shells kept pouring out. The artillerymen in the artillery battalion were also red-eyed, and as soon as the shells were discharged, the gunners waiting on the side immediately strode over and pressed the fire door with their thumbs to prevent air and flammable things from entering.

The gunner on the other side came over to clean the gun chamber with a water-stained strip, and then the loader ran to stuff the ammunition that the powder bag, the butt and the shell were combined into the muzzle, and then the gunner holding the strip used the strip to push the shell into the gun chamber, and the gun commander standing behind observed the direction and measured the wind speed to rotate the gun carriage to fine-tune the gun, and then the gunner next to him pierced the cartridge with an iron thorn, and then inserted the hair tube, and with the gun commander ordered the gunner to pull hard, the spark in the hair tube ignited the powder bag, With a loud bang, the ammunition was pushed out by the tremendous kinetic energy generated when the kit exploded.

It's a long process, but it's only a little over ten seconds. After this period of hard training in the Mongolian steppe, today's gunners have developed excellent skills, and the rate of fire per minute has reached an astonishing four rounds, which is already comparable to the rate of fire of the elite artillery of France in another time and space.

In the face of the cannonballs falling like raindrops, Yue Tuo said that he was angry and helpless, because he found that he had encountered something bad again, he commanded the five thousand cavalry under his command to finally kill more than two hundred places in front of the phalanx, and the war horse under the crotch of the cavalry who rushed to the front suddenly let out a burst of sad neighing, and then fell to the ground with a soft hoove, and then an angry roar sounded in front.

"Lord Belle, the Han dog sprinkled thistle in front!"

After hearing this, Yue Tuo's heart was filled with grief and indignation, it was still a familiar recipe and a familiar taste, how similar this scene was to last year when he was in Dry Grass Ridge, Jiang Ningjun, how much do you like to sprinkle thistle terrestris, don't you want money for thistle?
