"Whoosh ......"

Dozens of flowering bombs fell in the formation of the Houjin Tartar attack, some smashed into people's bodies, and some smashed into the open ground, but without exception, all the flowering bombs exploded, and the three and a half pounds of black powder were converted into huge kinetic energy, and dozens of iron pellets the size of little fingers and the fragments formed after the projectile body was broken flew in all directions.

Although Amin had tried his best to spread out the offensive formation, no matter how scattered he was, he couldn't line up in a skirmish line like in the era of hot weapons, so when the flowering shells exploded in the offensive formation, there were still Tartars who were blown up by the projectiles and fragments flying everywhere.

"Boom ......"

Just as the artillery battalion was fighting fiercely, a loud bang suddenly sounded in a phalanx in the middle of the line, followed by a puff of smoke, several screams came from the phalanx, and several gunners who were loading ammunition fell to the ground screaming.

"Hmm...... What's going on? Yang Feng, who was watching the battle from a large car in the rear, had a look in his eyes, and when he looked over with a telescope, he could only see a cloud of smoke and a few gunners who hurriedly ran over in the telescope.

"Artillery Battalion...... Artillery battalion, what happened? ”

Qiu Disheng's voice with a quick breath came over the walkie-talkie: "My lord...... Just now, one of the gunners was too nervous to cut the fuse index letter of the flowering shell, and one of the flowering shells exploded in the chamber of the cannon, fortunately it did not cause martyrdom, and only three gunners were injured. ”

"Damn!" Yang Feng scolded secretly, the flowering shells of this year are still too primitive, and before each shot, he relies on the gunner to measure the distance and cut the length of the fuse, and then put it into the gun chamber and ignite it and launch it.

After thinking about it, Yang Feng ordered into the walkie-talkie: "Qiu Disheng, order the artillery battalion to stop firing flowering bullets, convert them into solid bullets, and start using shotguns after firing two rounds of solid bullets!" ”

"Understood!"

Qiu Disheng secretly scolded his mother in his heart, but he didn't have anything to do, in the face of the enemy's attack, the gunners at the front were under great pressure, and the requirements for the use of flowering shells were also the most complicated, if it was a solid bullet fired just now, such a thing would not happen at all.

"Change to solid bullets and fire!"

"Boom ......"

After a while, the remaining thirty-five artillery pieces fired, and dozens of projectiles fell into the attack formation of the Houjin army, but because the Houjin army was relatively scattered, and the killing range of the solid bullets was too small, the casualties caused to the Houjin army were not large, and after two rounds of solid bullets, the Ming army also stopped shooting, after seeing such a situation, Amin couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered loudly on a war horse to supervise the formation in the back: "Order Hutchisi, speed up, as long as we attack the camp of the Ming army, we will win, When the time comes, I personally ask the Great Khan to raise the flag for them! ”

"Rush up...... Kill! ”

At the forefront were more than 3,000 auxiliaries, coats, and a small number of foot armor, and before the attack these auxiliaries were promised that if they could completely annihilate the Ming army, the Great Belle and the Second Belle would ask the Great Khan for grace to raise their flags. The so-called flag raising is a method that Nurhachi came up with in order to reward his subordinates.

Raising the flag is to raise some of the vassals who belong to the Jurchens as flag people, and the people who are carried up the flag become the flag men, whether it is identity or status will be significantly improved, and there is also a meaning that the flag of the lower five flags will be raised to the upper three flags, which is also a kind of praise, the most famous example is in another time and space, in the late Qing Dynasty, the widow of Emperor Xianfeng, Cixi, her family was originally one of the five flags of the blue flag, and then with her rise to power, she was carried into one of the three flags of the yellow flag.

In general, raising the flag is a kind of reward and reward, an important way for the flag member to change his status, and a kind of illustrious honor, which is mostly awarded by the emperor's special decree or ministerial discussion.

After getting the promise of Daishan and Amin, the auxiliaries and wrappers composed of Mongols, Koreans and attached Han people rushed forward desperately one by one as if they had been beaten with blood, at this time there was only one thought in their eyes, as long as they rushed to the front of those Ming troops, they could become superior people, and they could also be masters.

As time passed, they had rushed to the front of the phalanx more than three hundred meters, at this distance those gunners could already see the faces of the Houjin Tartars who had become hideous because of excitement, they waved the weapons in their hands and let out some screams that even they themselves could not understand and rushed towards them, in the middle of the phalanx, Qiu Disheng, who was carefully measuring the distance of the enemy with the artillery mirror, shouted: "Shotgun preparation, fire!" ”

"Boom, boom, boom......"

In front of the position, a thunderclap of artillery sounded, a large thick white smoke rose up, more than 30 shotguns were fired out of the barrel, roaring towards the Tartars' offensive formation, when the shotguns were fired out of the muzzle, wrapped in iron sheets suddenly dispersed, 3,500 little finger-sized iron beads sprayed towards the Tartars' offensive formation.

In the back of Amin's view, when the Ming army's artillery fired, countless black spots that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye poured out, and soon their camp seemed to rain blood, countless auxiliaries who were charging fell to the ground wailing, dozens of auxiliaries who rushed to the front fell to the ground and kept rolling and wailing, many of them were bleeding like blood, covering their wounds and not wanting to live, at this moment they felt regretful, they should not covet the promise of carrying the flag to run to death.

The first round of shelling caused at least three or four hundred casualties of the Houjin army, especially the auxiliaries who rushed to the front were almost wiped out.

"Here we go again...... Not again! ”

Dai Shan, who supervised the battle behind, and the generals of Zhenghongqi all gasped when they saw the tragic situation of those auxiliary soldiers, and the tragic situation in front of them reminded them of the scene they had under Jinzhou City a few days ago. It was that station that cost them more than 2,000 elite infantry and vests, and how similar this scene today was to the scene that day.

Dai Shan gritted his teeth and said loudly to Amin who was still a little stunned next to him: "You can't stop, immediately blow the trumpet and let people rush up, it takes a certain amount of time for the artillery of the Ming army to fire, as long as you rush up, you will definitely be able to destroy them." As long as we can disrupt the formation of the Ming army, our cavalry can take advantage of the situation to rush over and disrupt the formation of the Ming army, as long as we can disrupt their formation, we will win. ”

Of course, Amin understood what Dai Shan meant, in this era, the war depends on the formation, and the only thing waiting for them is the collapse of any formation, and he snatched the horn of a Goshha hanging on his waist next to him and blew it hard.

"Woo...... Woowoo woo ......"

A mournful horn echoed in the sky.

"Rush up...... Rush up! ”

The blue-flaged infantry who were mixed in the attack formation immediately showed a fierce glint in their eyes when they heard the sound of the horn, and they drew their long knives at their waists, loudly expelling the auxiliaries and the clothed soldiers, and hurried forward.

"Those who hesitate...... Die...... Backwards do not former...... Dead ......"

"Ah......h

A slowing auxiliary soldier was split in two by a foot armor with a heavy knife on the spot, and blue-gray intestines and blood flowed to the ground. After killing this auxiliary soldier, Bujia shouted with a fierce look: "Do you see it, if you don't retreat, this is the end, if you don't rush forward, as long as you kill those lowly Han people, you will be the banner people, and you can also be the master!" ”

Under the orders of the infantry who supervised the battle, the soldiers and the clothed men also let go, and one by one they plucked up their courage and pounced again, and when they rushed to a distance of one hundred and seventy or eighty meters from the phalanx, the cannon rang out again.

Thousands of iron beads poured down like rain, and a rain of blood rose, and the Tartars in front of the phalanx were swept away again, and this time more Tartars were shot closer to each other, and five or six hundred auxiliaries and coats were shot and fell to the ground.

One of the gunners was so nervous that he loaded the twelve-pounder gun he was operating with solid shells, and the ten-pound iron pellet hit a hard stone and ricocheted off. Due to the hard and flat terrain, the projectile flew towards one of the Tartars' foot soldiers, and under the soldier's terrified gaze, the projectile jumped up and rushed towards his body.

The cannonball seemed to be slow and fast, and the infantry soldier subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the cannonball had already leaked out of his chest, with bloody blood, and in the crackling sound of broken bones, several auxiliaries and coats behind him fell to the ground.

That's not all, the power of this cannonball is not finished, after knocking down these Tartars, they still jumped and ran into the queue behind, and there was another sound of broken legs and bones, breaking the bodies and foot bones of several Tartars alive......

"Rush up, don't stop...... Rush on! ”

Amin in the back was already in a frenzy at this time, picking up the horn and blowing it non-stop. He doesn't care about the life and death of the minions in front of him, anyway, they are all some auxiliaries and coats, and they are all minions of the Red Flag, their life and death have a relationship with him, and it is better to die completely.

In fact, not only Amin, even Dai Shan also saw the situation in front of him, those artillery guns need at least more than 20 breaths after firing a round before they can be fired again, with this buffer time, they can completely rush to the camp of the Ming army, and then the Ming army's large array can be broken.

Dai Shan grabbed Amin's arm and said loudly: "Second brother, those minions are about to rush to the front of the Ming army, you immediately send out your vest, and I will immediately send a signal for Yue Tuo to attack their rear tail and annihilate the Ming army in one fell swoop!" ”

"Good!"

Amin gritted his teeth, they are all old fighters, and they have their own judgment on the battle situation, looking at their experience against the Ming army for many years, as long as they can rush into the camp of the Ming army, no matter how tenacious the Ming army is, it will collapse.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The sound of the trumpet changed again, becoming rapid and short. Hearing the sound of the horn, the two thousand cavalrymen with blue flags who were standing quietly behind the team began to move, at first their speed was relatively slow, and then gradually became faster, they bypassed both sides of the infantry formation that were attacking towards the Ming army's large array, and when their speed reached the normal level, they were already less than four hundred meters away from the phalanx in front.

Yang Feng, who had long been aware of the actions of the Houjin army, was not worried when he saw the enemy's cavalry dispatched, but just glanced in the direction of his right, which was where Zhao Shujiao's cavalry was.

On the right side of the phalanx, Zhao Shujiao was facing several generals and guerrillas under his command and said loudly: "Brothers, the cavalry of the Tartars has been dispatched, we have watched the drama for so long, and now it is time for our Liaodong gentlemen to play, don't let those military families from Nanjing look down on us, all the men will follow me!" ”

"Lord Zhao, just take a look, we won't let those guys from Jiangnan look down on us today, their artillery is powerful, but our Liaodong masters' swords are not vegetarian!"

"Good!"

Zhao Shujiao laughed, took out his war knife and pointed obliquely ahead, and said loudly: "Brothers, just talk about not making fake tricks, now it's our turn to teach those Tartars a lesson, come on!" ”

"Kill!"

Amid the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, 4,000 Liaodong iron cavalry responded to the cavalry with blue flags that rushed forward.

Just when Zhao Shujiao led the cavalry to meet them, the Tartar soldiers also rushed up, at this time they were only more than a hundred meters away from the first row of three large arrays, but when they rushed up, they were surprised to find that the artillery that was originally neatly arranged in front of them had disappeared, replaced by rows of uniformed sergeants, and these sergeants were holding firearms at the moment and looking at them with cold eyes, and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at them.

An infantry soldier who was driving the auxiliaries forward looked at the rows of black holes in front of him and exclaimed, "It's a firebolt!" ”

"Rush up...... Their artillery can't fire, hurry up! ”

The other Zhuda shouted frantically, driven by the infantry soldiers, an auxiliary soldier and a cloth of cloth continued to rush forward with courage, and those sergeants with fire guns were also motionless, and the battlefield showed an eerie silence, feeling this abnormal atmosphere, many people beat drums in their hearts.

When the Houjin Tartar rushed to a distance of a hundred meters from the phalanx, a hundred households standing next to the phalanx put the sharp whistle in his mouth and raised the long knife in his hand!

"Beep beep ......"

"Raise your shield...... Raise your shield ......"

Although those auxiliaries could not wear two layers of heavy armor like the infantry soldiers of the Eight Banners, at least one cotton armor per person could still do it, not to mention that many of them were also equipped with shields, which were rattan cards soaked in tung oil, and could effectively resist the attacks of arrows and bird lead bullets at a distance of fifty to seventy paces. They had experimented, and the Ming army's bird guns could only penetrate their rattan cards and armor at a distance of twenty paces, but they had already rushed through this distance, so what was the use of penetrating them.

The most important thing is that there were many mistakes and accidents in the operation of the Ming army's firearms, and many firearms could not be fired when they were in battle. It was easy to explode, and there were many Ming soldiers who couldn't hold their breath, and couldn't help but fire indiscriminately before they could get into range. Before they could reach the firing range, the firearms over there couldn't help but run out, and the threat of such firearms to the Houjin Tartars was almost equal to zero.
