Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Six: Eternal Ride
The world that belonged to the two of them seemed to be condensed, and the scorched earth below was the stage they had just placed. The two people dancing in the sky are still performing pantomime, and Liu Zhiyuan is asking Ma Jinbao with his expression and bloody eyes What is going on? There was confusion, sadness, and grief in his expression. Ma Jinbao, who was dancing in the sky, looked very quiet, and gave Liu Zhiyuan a gesture that he couldn't help.
When the soul was separated from the body, Liu Zhiyuan finally found the person he called his master, and also saw the six or seven hundred soldiers wearing Portuguese military uniforms beside the person. The soul is no longer fetters, which makes Liu Zhiyuan recall the original relationship with this man named Douglas. Lucas's Portuguese instructor while studying in the Ming Army. At that time, Liu Zhiyuan was still unknown, and now he has flown higher than all the Qing troops. He also saw the Maharaja Baylors behind his own position, who were running faster than everyone else. The galloping figures were either supporting each other or being supported by their own soldiers, especially Dorgon's helmet, which had turned into a flaming flame.
Liu Zhiyuan died just after a bubble, but Dolgon was still asking: "What about the fireworks show?" How did it become a mining disaster site? We must eliminate the one who can shoot as soon as possible, otherwise I don't know how much blood will be shed in the future! "Prince Duanzhong Bolo is the luckiest of these people, but one face is half blackened, like an undercooked sauce elbow, and the rest is fine. When he heard Dolgon's complaint, he immediately came over and asked for his life: "Uncle, please allow your nephew to lead the elite cavalry to kill him." ”
There was not much time left for Dolgon, the artillery fire of the Ming army had already covered their own artillery positions, and they were counting on any artillery battle, and today's fireworks were not what they had scheduled at all. Although the artillery just now did not open the gap in the chariots and fortifications on the periphery of the Ming army, it is better to attack immediately than to queue up to be bombed, and the face of the dignified Eight Banners Iron Cavalry must be recovered. So, Dolgon said to Bolo: "Okay, give you 30,000 men, and you must kill the Ming army's artillery first." ”
Bolo answered and ran back to invite someone, and Dolgon said to the people: "Count how many gunners and artillery we still have, and ask Liu Zhiyuan if he can do it?" Even if you can't suppress the firepower of the Ming army, at least you have to destroy the enemy's car formation! ”
Liu Zhiyuan has already risen in the daytime, and Bo Luo is already ready to charge after ordering the men and horses, and someone has dragged out nearly 400 people who can breathe in the pile of dead people, and the first thing these people do when they get up is not to fight back, but to disperse the cannons first, so that the Ming army can not find them. Then he aimed at the camp of the Ming army, fired a round of shells, and then hurriedly changed places.
But even Liu Zhiyuan, an artillery expert, was killed in battle, who else are these disciples and disciples who are the opponents of those artillery gods on the other side? The Qing gunners fought several rounds of Tibetan and Tibetan battles, and all the artillery positions that were scattered were destroyed by the Ming artillery one by one. Fortunately, the outer wall of the Ming army's camp was also pierced by these artillery, and Bolo saw this and immediately led his army to charge, but the road was still long and long for him and his army.
Gunners need to be trained in the war, but after decades of bloody battles in the Ming army, where are there any excellent gunners? Recruiting skilled gunners is the most practical option. Douglas. Lucas's Portuguese artillerymen were the best marksmen, and their guns were equipped with illuminators and crosshairs, and the trajectory, elevation, and distance were calculated by geometric formulas before each shot. The measuring instruments used turned out to be the proportional gauge newly invented by Mr. Galileo. The most modern technology, the most sophisticated artillery, and the best gunners were all built and gathered together by Zhu Sihua at the greatest price.
Coupled with the friendly relations between the Ming Dynasty and Portugal that were close to the nature of the alliance, these 700 people were almost the extreme number of Portuguese regular troops that Zhu Si could dig up in Macao. These 700 regular troops are not the same as the 3,000 Western mercenaries, they belong to Zhu Si's temporary lease, and the number has accounted for 20% of the Portuguese troops stationed in Macao. As for whether Zhu Si needs to return it in the end, it depends on his integrity, but has Zhu Si talked to Fanbang about integrity? How many of the Portuguese soldiers under the heavy reward are willing to go back to Macao to receive the subsistence allowance?
Bolo, Aixin Jueluo. The third son of Abatai, the seventh son of Nurhachi. The 30,000 heavy cavalry he led was the vanguard of the Eight Banners, and after the Ming army's outer camp was pierced by Qing artillery fire in several places, Bolo's cavalry finally launched a charge. He wanted to rush into the Ming army's position before the gap was filled by the Ming army. All the scenery on both sides is hurriedly leaving backwards, and only the target in front of them is a real existence. These people on horseback know that this is a goal that feels real, and many of them may never touch it in their lifetime.
The distance of three or four miles between Bolo's 30,000 strikers and the target only took less than three minutes, during which they had to face at least a dozen rounds of artillery fire according to the speed of the Ming army's artillery bombardment. However, this is one of the most elite cavalry in the world, and their combat qualities are unrivaled in the whole world. Just look at them first in a looser formation, the horses are fast, and the sound of the cannon is deafening. 30,000 iron horsemen thundered, and 8,000 fire dragons shook the heavens and the earth. There was a steel rain in the sky, and an iron wind was blowing in the ground. The steel rain fell into a fire tree, and the iron wind swept like silver flowers. The fire tree swallows the horse all the time, and the iron wind comes and goes. Once a million soldiers rose and fell, the victory or defeat of the two armies determined China.
This is the ocean of blood, this is the world of flowers, and if anyone touches this flower, then they will go to another world. The Portuguese artillery sent ripples in front of the formation, and this ripple was like a wormhole in time, devouring the past of every warrior, and making them unable to see the future. Lots and lots of people and horses ended their dreams in front of steel and gunpowder. But this iron army still continues to move forward, and this moment is the new era and the old things are competing and colliding!
Halfway through, the 30,000 cavalry could change formations at the fastest speed. They increased the density of the formation, and in a very short period of time, they formed two goose-shaped formations with a certain interval between the front and the back. On the next road, the Bolo army was greeted by the Ming army's Zama nails and bed crossbows. The threat of the Zama nail was silent, very different from the loud waves of artillery, one a hoarse menace, the other a quiet sting. Whichever you choose, it will be a double torture of your own mind and body.
The rows of warriors who were at the forefront of the charge fell to the ground with the painful neighing of their horses, and sometimes they would harm one or two of the horses behind them. The cavalry that followed them thus stepped on their comrades, stepping out wave after wave. The dead warriors laid a blanket of flesh for the living, paving a path to hope. Perhaps these sacrificial souls will continue to ride in loyalty and glory, forever......
