Dai Shan is worthy of being a person who has been fighting for more than 20 years, after hearing the Ming army on the opposite side singing in unison, he knew that he could no longer let the Ming army sing like this, if he waited until the morale of the Ming army on the opposite side rose to the peak, it would be difficult to fight this battle today, and he immediately gave the order to attack.

The advance of the Houjin army was also quite orderly, they did not swarm forward, but turned the direction of the more than 80 shield carts that were originally responsible for the siege of the city and slowly forced the military formation of the Ming army by the auxiliary soldiers, and then ordered their eldest sons Yue Tuo and Actun to approach from both sides, which gave the opponent a sign of encirclement and pressure on three sides.

Some people may have said that it is just surrounded on three sides, isn't there no one behind them? As long as people with a little military knowledge know that this is the viciousness of the Houjin Tartars, if the Jiang Ning army dares to turn around and flee, the Houjin Tartars will hunt them as easily as hunting, and in the end they can only be wiped out.

Just when the Houjin army was slowly approaching up, everyone didn't notice that above their heads, a six-rotor drone was slowly hovering in the sky more than 300 meters above their heads, this six-rotor unmanned remote-controlled aircraft was quietly floating in the sky, high and low from time to time from the sky, and an ultra-high-definition camera was hanging under the belly of the drone, which was quietly filming everything that happened on the battlefield and transmitting it to the ground in time.

In a big car in the big square where Yang Feng was, a beautiful little girl in a three-color camouflage uniform was holding a remote control in her hand and slowly controlling the drone in the sky, her eyes were staring at the picture displayed by a tablet computer in front of her with some nervousness, and in the picture of this tablet, the bird's-eye view of the entire battlefield was clearly presented, and behind the little girl was standing Zheng Tuoniang, who was also nervously looking at the picture on the tablet at the moment.

"Eh, Niang, you move a little more to the right, the Tartar soldiers over there are moving."

Yes, these two people are Zheng Toniang and her maid lineman. For this expedition, in order to ensure that he can obtain the right to know about the battlefield in a timely manner, Yang Feng also purchased a set of top-level professional aerial photography equipment, which is specially used for reconnaissance and shooting to obtain information on the battlefield.

Such a confidential thing naturally has to be operated by the most trusted person, so at first he handed over the operation of this set of equipment to Zheng Tuniang, but what made him try to play the network was that Zheng Tuniang really had no talent in this area, and he broke two drones in just one week, which made Yang Feng speechless. By chance, Yang Feng found that Zheng Toniang's personal little maid Xianniang actually had a high talent in operating drones, and Zheng Toniang didn't learn something for a week, she just played smoothly in less than an hour, which also made Yang Feng surprised and delighted, and decided to hand over the control of the drone to Xianniang on the spot.

"Miss, don't make any noise, I saw it, I'll go over immediately!" The informant muttered while skillfully fiddling with the joystick, and no one flew to the right.

"Oh no, miss, look, the Tartars sent a team of cavalry out of their camp to go around behind us, you hurry up and tell your lordship!"

"Got it, I'll tell you right away!"

Zheng Toniang picked up the walkie-talkie next to her while talking, and connected to Yang Feng's channel......

"Understood, you and the thread continue to observe the movements of the Tartar!"

Yang Feng put down the walkie-talkie, looked at the Tartar on the opposite side and sneered, this Dai Shan is really yin enough, on the one hand, he sent a large army to face him head-on and outflank the two wings, and on the other hand, he also sent cavalry to prepare to go around to the back to block his retreat, does he think that he has eaten himself?

Picking up the walkie-talkie again, and after connecting to another channel, Yang Feng gave an order, "First, second, and third formations, artillery preparation!" The cavalry brigade immediately went out to lay out defenses on both flanks. ”

"Understood!"

"The cavalry brigade understands!"

Soon the intercom came with the answers of Qiu Disheng, Yang Daniu and several thousand households and deputy thousand households.

"Whoa......

Following Yang Feng's order, the five hundred cavalrymen originally arranged in the tail began to gallop towards the two wings, each of these cavalrymen carrying a sack with a drum and a rather heavy look behind the saddle. Their move stunned everyone, what did these Ming troops want to do, did they want to attack the Houjin cavalry with just a few hundred people? If you want to find death, it's not like that, right? You must know that now is not as good as just now, just now the battle of the Houjin army was not collected at night, but the Houjin army was not prepared to hit them by surprise, if you still want to repeat the trick when the Houjin army is prepared, it can only be self-defeating.

Yue Tuo, who was leading his headquarters of 2,000 cavalry towards the Ming army slowly approaching, saw that the Ming army actually sent hundreds of cavalry to rush towards him, he almost couldn't believe his eyes, he knew that he was leading the most elite 2,000 horse armor soldiers, did the Ming army generals on the opposite side go crazy, or thought that he was a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, and dared to take the initiative to attack himself.

Seeing that the Ming army was so arrogant, a Jia Lazhangjing was angry for a while, and took the initiative to say to Yue Tuo: "Master, let the servants bring people over to eat those Ming troops, right?" ”

"No need!" As the eldest son of Daishan, Yue Tuo, although he is only twenty-six years old this year, is known as a wise general among the Jurchens, he stared at the Ming army in front of him trotting towards him and said calmly: "Our task is to force those Ming troops, keep pressure on them, let them come, I want to see what tricks they can play." ”

"Huh!" Although he was a little unwilling, this Jia Lazhangjing could only nod stupidly and retreated hatefully.

Dai Shan, who was standing at the top of the battlefield, also looked at the hundreds of Ming soldiers in front of him with a sneer, and he also wanted to see what tricks these Ming soldiers could play.

On the city wall, Sun Chengzong and other generals of the Ming army also sighed, and Zhao Shujiao even muttered: "His grandmother's, is this going to be sent to death?" ”

But the next scene that surprised everyone happened, when these hundreds of Ming soldiers rushed to more than 300 meters away from the two wings of Houjin, they suddenly turned around collectively and turned back, which shocked everyone's jaws.

In Houjin's main formation, the Houjin Tartars who saw this scene all laughed.

"Hahaha...... Are these bright dogs here to amuse us? ”

Tens of thousands of Houjin troops looked at these Ming troops who had just rushed a few hundred meters and collectively turned backwards, almost all of them laughed, for the Jurchens who advocated personal bravery, these Ming army's actions were no different from cowards, even the Ming army at the head of the city also felt hot on their faces, and at first they wanted to praise their bravery, but they never thought that it was a group of wax-headed silver guns.

Sun Chengzong also frowned, could it be that these Ming troops were really so unbearable? No, the military songs and high morale just now can't be faked.

"Look, what are they doing?" Suddenly, Zu Dale pointed to the left front and shouted.

I saw that the Ming soldiers who turned backwards opened the sack behind the butt of the war horse, and then saw black things falling from the sack.

"What's that?"

Sun Chengzong, who couldn't see clearly, hurriedly raised the clairing mirror and forgot about it, and when he saw the things that fell to the ground, he couldn't help but gasp.

"That'...... That's thistle! ”

"What, it's thistle?"

"They actually threw thistles?"

Almost everyone has grown up with their mouths, this is really a god turning, no one would have thought that the purpose of these Ming troops running out was to throw thistle, which is too vicious.

Tribulus terrestris is not a rare thing, and it has been used by the army during the Warring States period in China. It has four iron thorns that stretch out, several inches long, where it lands about a thorn towards the iron tribulus terrestris, the tip of the thorn is like the herbaceous plant "tribulus terrestris", so the name is tribulus terrestris.

However, iron thistle terrestris is generally only used for defense, and in the era of cold weapons, iron is a valuable strategic material, and there is no army like Jiang Ningjun who will throw thousands of catties of iron thistle terrestris like this. Holes are usually punched in the center of the thistles and strung together with ropes for laying and collecting, but this is not very useful on the battlefield, as opponents will easily find ropes to put them away.

This is also the reason why Yang Feng did not string the thistles up and lay them like ordinary troops, because in this way, as long as the Houjin army sent people to grab one end and pull the thistles apart, instead of just staring at the thistles everywhere like now.

This can be called a turning point of the gods, and Sun Chengzong and others, who were watching him in Jinzhou City, and the Houjin army were stunned.

Seeing that the Ming army just sprinkled bags of thistle terrestris on the ground, they forcibly blocked the thousands of Houjin troops, and all the Jurchens were angry, and bursts of roars and insults immediately broke out in the Houjin camp. Although the Jurchens boasted of bravery, they were not arrogant enough to allow their precious horsemen to attack at the risk of being impaled through the legs of their horses by thistles.

"Hangou is so shameless!"

"Shameful Han dog, if you can't beat us, you can use such despicable means to stop the Dajin army!"

Dai Shan didn't get angry, as the highest-ranking big Belle except Nurhachi, it would be too cheap if he also insulted like an ordinary Jurchen, I saw him comforting the generals around him with a calm face and said: "It's okay, those Ming troops are afraid that they won't be able to withstand the pressure of our Jurchen warriors from both sides, so they resorted to such a method in desperation, to tell Yue Tuo and Actun, and send auxiliaries to remove these thistles, and then continue to move forward." ”

"Huh!"

The herald was soon ordered to leave.

The generals of the Ming army at the head of Jinzhou City also had mixed reactions after seeing this scene.

Zhao Shujiao pointed at the Houjin cavalry who were forced to stop advancing: "These Jurchen Tartars are dumbfounded now, thousands of vests were actually stopped by some inconspicuous thistles, and now they can only stare at these things before they know these thistles." ”

Sun Chengzong also smiled silently, and the actions of the Ming army in front of him were also called his expectations, but he didn't expect that such a common thing as two iron thistles was also played by them, and it actually stopped the always fierce Jurchen cavalry.

Zu Dale pursed his lips, he didn't know what he was muttering in his mouth, most of the Ming army generals were applauding the friendly troops outside the city, I don't know who suddenly pointed to the outside of the city and shouted, "Look, everyone, they are starting to move!" ”

With the general's voice, everyone only saw that the sergeants in front of the three formations in the first row suddenly dispersed, revealing rows of artillery behind them.

As the five rows of sergeants in front suddenly dispersed, revealing a cannon gate, the good deeds counted it, and eight artillery pieces were arranged in each hollow phalanx. At this time, these cannons had all been loaded, and the muzzles of the black holes had been aimed at the Houjin army that was approaching them more than a mile away.

The hollow phalanx in the first row is all equipped with Napoleon M1841 6-pounder field guns imitated by Minghu Iron and Steel Works, which has a caliber of 93 mm, a barrel length of 1.52 meters (16.3 times the caliber), and a gun weight of 389 kg.

Seeing that the muzzle of the black hole was pointed at his own army, Dai Shan, who was closely watching the movement of the Ming army, blurted out and shouted: "Not good! ”

At the same time as Dai Shan shouted, Yang Feng also shouted into the walkie-talkie.

"The first and second third-party array artillery, I am Yang Feng, I order the cannon to be fired immediately!"

With Yang Feng's order issued, Qiu Disheng, who was personally commanding in the second phalanx of the first row, also raised the small red flag in his hand and roared out.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

With Qiu Disheng's roar, twenty-four gunners simultaneously lit the fuse located in the tail of the gun.

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

With a loud roar, a burst of white smoke rose up, and twenty-four 2.54-kilogram iron pellets flew out of the muzzles of the guns at a speed of 439 meters per second, and flew towards the Houjin army that was pressing towards them.

"Boom ......"

An iron projectile struck a shield cart that was slowly advancing towards them.

Although the shield car was made of wooden planks up to four inches thick and wrapped in two layers of cowhide, which was thick enough to withstand almost all the arrows and firecrackers, in the face of the impact of a projectile weighing 2.54 kilograms at a speed of more than 400 meters per second, the shield car that the Jin army had carefully built was still smashed into pieces like a fragile watermelon.

After smashing the shield car, he continued to move forward without stopping, and after smashing the two heavily armored infantry soldiers hiding behind the shield car, he fell heavily to the ground and continued to move forward, and finally knocked over an infantry soldier who was more than ten meters behind the shield car to the ground, and then exhausted his kinetic energy and stopped advancing.
