More than 200 shells, fired non-stop, four guns fired a maximum of 12 rounds a minute, which can maintain continuous artillery for more than 20 minutes.

The soldiers of the Bao Army carried 200 rounds of bullets with him, and since President Wei dared to let the first army attack, the bullets would definitely be enough.

There are enough grenadier tubes, enough ammunition tubes, enough grenade tubes.

Five hundred people plus an artillery battalion is a head harvester.

"Ahhh The Eight Banners shouted and charged.

Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!

The soldiers of the treasure army fired intensively at a distance of fifty meters.

One shot for a hundred, squatting after firing.

The second row fires, the third row fires, the fourth row fires, the fifth row throws grenades, grenades are beaten.

The last row is usually responsible for these high-end weapons.

Jiannu fell off the horse one by one, and in this icy and snowy place, tens of thousands of troops were charging, and if they fell, they would die.

At this time, the square of the eight battalions had already begun to march out of the city, and they were constantly marching rapidly, running towards the teaching team.

Although it was a rapid march, the formation was well maintained.

Add in the total distance of only one mile, and it will be there in a blink of an eye.

Soon Jiannu was killed and wounded into a hillside, and the hillside where the corpses were piled up was very long, three or four hundred meters long.

Not only human corpses, but also war horses that were shot and fell to the ground.

The battle lasted for an hour, and the unbelieving Jiannu kept charging.

It's not completely impossible to break through the firepower network of the treasure army, and on average, at least one person can rush over every minute.

It's useless to rush over, and it's like being beaten into a sieve by bullets when you come over.

The soldiers of the treasure army were ready to fight bayonets in close quarters, but unfortunately there was no such opportunity, and the bayonets did not have a chance to stain blood.

In the 18th century, the Russian army's wars against the Crimean Khanate were often able to inflict great casualties on its nomadic cavalry with very low casualties.

If they don't have an advantage in shooting at each other, then can the pre-modern warfare armies with more cold weapons be able to win the line-era armies in close combat?

It turns out no.

In many film and television works, the scenes of melee combat shown in the melee, in fact, even in the era of online columns, basically do not appear.

Unless it is like some chasseur or something, the infantry will basically maintain a constant speed while advancing, and will not charge chaotically.

This point, in fact, is also very important in the era of cold weapons.

Only by maintaining a firm formation in the war can you prevent your own formation from scattering as you advance, and give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Infantry bayonets in the line era will also maintain a consistent queue when charging.

The advent of the bayonet can be said to be a milestone weapon in the era of the European line, because it was this weapon that gradually replaced the historic spear in Europe, so that the musketeers no longer needed additional cold weapon protection.

Although the length of the bayonet was not superior to that of the spear, and it was not advantageous in one-on-one combat with many cold weapons, as well as against cavalry.

But the bayonets themselves have an advantage that cold weapons cannot match, and that is their ease of operation.

At the same time, when fighting with bayonets in clusters, the bayonet plus the gun itself is short in length and easy to control, so compared with cold weapons, it can effectively reduce the burden on the soldiers, so as not to affect the neatness of the formation.

There was a basic premise that the bayonet was mounted on a musket.

Soldiers in the line will sweep through the opponent with fire before engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

And when charging with cold weapons, it is often the elite of the army who rushes to the front.

The elite was swept away, and there was nothing left to fight in the follow-up hand-to-hand combat.

The bayonet played a great role in the battles of European countries with the *** countries of the Middle East, as well as India.

These are just the most superficial, if not the simplest, advantages.

If we continue to dig deeper, there are also the advantages of the army in the European line era in terms of logistics supply, army management, command, officer quality, and so on.

With the beginning of the Renaissance and the great progress of a large number of science and technology, civil and political affairs, Europe has actually opened a huge distance from ancient Asia and Africa in many aspects.

Among them, the military difference is actually only the most superficial difference.

When gunpowder weapons were just equipped with a large number of infantry, because all of them were smoothbore guns, the accuracy was very poor, and the gunpowder guns were fired very slowly, and gunpowder and bullets had to be loaded separately from the muzzle, so in order to increase the density of fire and improve the hit rate, the tactics of dense arrangement and shooting of line infantry were invented.

In order to keep the queue neat, the speed is very slow and drums are played.

It seems to have a strong sense of ritual, and it is incompatible with the modern warfare that later generations are familiar with.

After a volley, the soldiers on one side fell in large pieces.

After a volley of muskets, a large number of soldiers on one side will fall, but both sides will take the initiative to withstand enemy fire, and there must be no confusion in the queue.

The tactic of lining up to shoot is a tactic that was summed up by various countries in the bloody battle on the battlefield for many years and completely summed up by actual combat, and it was the pinnacle of infantry tactics in those years.

At the same level of technology, any tactics that attempt to challenge it will be defeated.

Most of the time, infantry uses these three formations: line, phalanx, and column.

From the mid-17th century, hand-held firearms were widely used by infantry, and the dominant tactic was the line tactic, in which infantry was lined up in wide, shallow lines and then fired in a volley.

A line with two to four rows of soldiers.

There are several key points in this, first, the army that can use the tactics of lining up to shoot, the soldiers are quite highly trained.

This level of training refers not to the soldier's individual ability, but to the obedience carved into the bones, so that they can slowly advance in the face of enemy bullets, and constantly turn a blind eye to the bullets and falls of their companions.

In a well-disciplined unit, after a person in the front row is killed by a bullet, the soldiers in the back row will quickly fill the empty space in front of them to ensure the integrity of the queue.

Although the hit rate of the smoothbore gun was indeed very low back then, even if it was a 10% hit rate, the first row of people had a one-tenth probability of dying, which was much higher than the probability of winning the lottery, and as the distance approached, the probability of "winning" also continued to increase, and the sense of oppression was very amazing to be able to maintain a rhythm like a machine and slowly press against the enemy team.

This highly organized army may not be very outstanding in individual prowess, but it can combine combat effectiveness into one, and the first row of soldiers will suffer heavy casualties in the face of a strong enemy, but it can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop in the return fire, and thus win in one fell swoop.

In the Battle of Abraham Plains in 1759, the British and French troops clashed, and the British troops stood under the bullets of the French army and marched 18 meters in front of the French army before firing.

The first shot knocked down more than 600 French troops, and instantly destroyed the French army's morale.

The second key point is that the infantry are equipped with bayonets, and after destroying the enemy's formation at close range, the infantry launches a bayonet charge to crush the enemy.

It was the bayonets that really solved the battle.

Therefore, a neat formation is very important, because the two sides are very close to each other, and if one side's queue is scattered, the other side will have a collective charge.

At that time, the Qing army could still fight a dozen firearms in the face of British troops, but once the British army charged with bayonets, the Qing army immediately collapsed.

The main reason is that the soldiers are too far behind in training, which leads to low morale, and once the morale of the army is unstable, the battle cannot be fought.

Because the firing speed of the smoothbore gun was very slow, only about two or three rounds a minute, and the process was quite cumbersome, in the fierce battle, people's movements and thinking were not as neat as usual, so there would be a situation where the gun continued to be loaded after dumb fire.

In contrast, bows and arrows shoot much faster, with an English longbowman being able to shoot exactly 12 arrows in one minute.

Is it possible for the archers to defeat the same number of line infantry.

If you look at this problem in history, it is clear that the archers have no chance of winning, because the line infantry will also have cavalry and artillery to support each other.

The dense phalanx of archers is the best target for artillery, and under the bombardment of artillery, the archers cannot shoot a dense rain of arrows at all, and the cavalry kills the archers who are scattered and fleeing for their lives.

It would be interesting if you took away the artillery and cavalry, the archers and line infantry heads-on.

Or take the British longbowmen as an example, their longbows can have a maximum range of more than 300 meters, of course, such a long distance is basically not accurate. And a good archer can shoot at a distance of almost 200 meters.

At this distance, even the chain mail could not withstand the fire of the longbow, and at a distance of 100 meters, the power of the longbow was simply devastating.

If a line infantry of 1,200 men marches in three formations towards an arrow formation of 1,200 English longbowmen, traveling at a speed of 1.5 meters per second, and the line infantry fires at a distance of 50 meters, it will take 133 seconds to travel from 250 to 50 meters.

If the British longbowmen were to shoot 26 arrows per minute according to the standard of 12 arrows per minute, a total of 31,200 arrows, even if the bow and arrow hit rate was only 3%, the line infantry was basically wiped out.

It is also terrible to line up in a dense formation and fire ten thousand arrows at once.

This is because archers can take projectiles when shooting from a distance, so 1,200 people can still shoot at the same time even if they are arranged in a relatively dense formation, and as the line infantry marches closer and closer, the accuracy of the archers will increase sharply, so when they reach a distance of 50 meters, they are basically humanoid targets.

Can the line infantry march to a certain distance and start charging.

Infantry charges at a slower rate than cavalry, taking at least 20 seconds to charge at a distance of 100 meters.

During this time, the archer could shoot 4 rounds, or 4,800 arrows, and if the kite tactic of shooting backwards while firing was adopted, the engagement could be greatly extended.

For line infantry, a long-distance charge consumes a lot of physical strength, which is very detrimental to the following hand-to-hand combat.

So under such specific conditions, the line infantry really had no good way to take the English longbowmen.

If the longbowmen were so powerful, why did the British eliminate them so quickly after the appearance of gunpowder weapons.

Because good longbowmen are much more difficult to train than infantry with smoothbore guns, good longbowmen need to hone their skills for a long time, and the British poured all their efforts into training a small number of longbowmen, and the British king stipulated that all men in the country, from 12 to 65 years old, as long as they are able-bodied, should concentrate on longbow training every Sunday.

Longbowmen have deformed their spines because they have been drawing their bows for a long time to shoot arrows.

And the training of smoothbore gunners in ten days and half a month is enough, anyway, the guns at that time were not accurate.

All that remained was the officer's whip and club education, so that the soldier was more afraid of punishment than of death.

Weighing both sides, people with brains will make the right choice.

Why didn't China have a large-scale musket array like the West's queue to shoot?

Why did China not have a large-scale formation of muskets in the West in the hundreds of years after the appearance of muskets?

Why the Chinese bow was used in the army until the nineteenth century.

China has not developed such tactics on its own, only the tactics of platoon guns and various formations.

These tactics have more or less certain characteristics of modern Western tactics, but they cannot be called truly modern tactics.

None of them embody, or rather do not fully embody, the core ideas of modern linear tactics.

This was also a characteristic of the army in the late Qing Dynasty--, which had elements of the new mode of warfare and could not get rid of the form of the old military system.

Due to the backwardness of the entire military system in the late Qing Dynasty and the generally low level of training of soldiers, this kind of tactic did not fully exert its due power in the Qing army.

The Qing army did use such tactics on a large scale, and it should have been fairly early, no later than the 18th century.

Unfortunately, this type of tactic is not compatible with any of the modern European tactical systems.

There is no substantial difference between these men holding muskets and their counterparts hundreds of years ago shooting with bows and arrows.

The problem with the so-called "lining up to shoot" of the Qing army is that first, the quality of the Qing army's troops is not enough to defeat the enemy by shooting alone.

Second, muskets such as bird guns and carrying guns were not enough to meet the needs of line warfare.

A low-quality army like the late Qing Dynasty would be shot if they were pulled out and lined up.

At most, just a few rounds of fire, and the reload efficiency will be severely reduced.

Many people will run away or lie on the ground to avoid bullets, and this is when it is necessary to let the hand-to-hand troops go up.

The arquebus' firepower was not dense enough to repel the enemy's hand-to-hand charges within the effective range of the fire, and at best it could only weaken the opponent and disrupt the formation, but the flintlock pistol could do it.

Therefore, the Qing musketeers could only retreat after a few rounds like the Spanish phalanx.

Even European armies lined up with flintlock muskets and then with lines.

The so-called modern army, they inherited the tradition of the army of the classical **** period, emphasizing discipline and collective cooperation, rather than individual combat skills and martial bravery.

They were armed with muskets, not because they were superior to bows and arrows in performance indicators, but because they were equipped with bayonets that allowed them to balance long-range shooting and hand-to-hand combat, thus giving full play to their advantages in organizational discipline.

On the battlefield, they were organized in a strict horizontal formation with companies as units, and a battalion or even a company was an independent tactical unit.

This unit can independently handle all infantry tactical tasks such as attacking, holding, long-range shooting and white-knuckle combat, anti-cavalry, etc.

Their superior commanders only need to deploy them in accordance with the established operational regulations and adjust the distribution of troops in light of the battlefield situation, and these tactical units can be competent for all combat tasks.

This kind of all-round unit has an all-round adaptability to the battlefield, and there is no need to alternate musketeers and hand-to-hand infantry like the Spanish phalanx or Zhu Di's Shenji battalion, and change positions in turn.

As a result, the flexibility and mobility of its formation far exceed that of the former.

The stragglers are not more flexible.

However, at that time, the muskets were not advanced enough, the rate of fire and the range were insufficient, and a unit could not rely only on firearms to fight the opponent completely unable to fight in close combat, and it was impossible to use bows and arrows.

Not to mention the galloping cavalry, and in such a situation, using a straggler queue as a pillar of the army is tantamount to suicide.

At that time, the line infantry needed drums to control the pace when advancing, and it took half a minute to complete the formation every 100 steps.

A slight misalignment of the formation will not have the slightest effect on the density of fire and morale when firing.

The purpose of the formation was to keep the line infantry in a tight formation to ensure that the whole force was ironclad.

The hand-to-hand combat of the modern army is not a group fight, but a row of people poking and poking like the Macedonian phalanx.

In the Battle of Rossbach during the Seven Years' War, the French army and the Holy Roman Empire army were disjointed by the Prussian cavalry because of their poor formation.

The scattered line infantry was ineffective, as their usual combat training consisted of standing in a line and stabbing forward.

In those days, the secret to training illiterate peasants for three months into usable line infantry was to cultivate discipline through corporal punishment and intense training, and then teach them the simplest and deadliest form of attack.

That way, when engaging the enemy in close combat, each soldier doesn't have to think about how to kill the enemy, but just pokes forward like a machine like a normal training, or fills the position of a dead teammate.

As for his personal safety, it is based on the strict discipline of the entire formation.

As long as they can rely on discipline and will to keep the battle formation from being broken through under enemy attacks, their enemies have nothing to do with them.

And once their front was breached, these soldiers were as completely vulnerable as peasants with no military training.

Because they simply don't go it alone.

The training they receive is all about teaching them how to maintain formation and discipline under the weight of external factors.

Therefore, at that time, the army fought with the will, and whoever could endure huge casualties and maintain a tight formation was the ultimate victor.

The side that is broken up first will be unilaterally slaughtered by the side that is neatly formed.

Except for the chaos in the early Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty did not have an enemy of the same size and strength for a long time.

The existing old military system, combined with the powerful human resources of the Central Plains Dynasty, was fully capable of coping with all kinds of foreign wars and border conflicts.

In order to maintain their national security and hegemony, European countries such as France and Prussia had to devote all their national resources to supporting a standing army capable of large-scale wars, and used this as the foundation of their country.

This requires them to constantly gain experience and improve in actual combat.

It is precisely this environment that has contributed to the constant change and development of the military system in Western Europe.

In the West, muskets replaced bows and arrows to meet the needs of new forms of warfare, and the fundamental reason why the English system was abandoned was not that it had completely failed, but because it could no longer meet the needs of soldiers on the scale of warfare in the new era.

At the same time, it is incompatible with the military system and system of the new era, and has no advantages over troops armed with firearms.

Of course, there are also social reasons, such as the bankruptcy of yeoman farmers due to the enclosure movement, and the inability to continue training archery on weekends due to migrant workers in the city.

Before the invention of the practical rifled gun, the line of shot, or line tactic, was the most suitable tactic for musket infantry.

This tactic has been tested countless times and refined for a century and a half, and has a huge advantage over other tactical systems of the same period or earlier.

In the East, however, because there was no such urgent need, and the old military system, combined with huge human and material resources, was sufficient to cope with all wars and conflicts, reform would naturally not take place.

Although the Qing army also had a large number of muskets, and for a long time muskets and bows and arrows were used.

But in essence, the Qing Dynasty was just trying to integrate firearms, a useful new weapon, into the old military system and make it take its rightful place.

Just like the French army before World War II, it foolishly organized tank units into tank battalions and assigned them to each infantry division.

The old-style army, the old-style tactical system, and the use of new-style weapons doomed the Qing army to only enjoy the benefits of firearms, but could not maximize the effectiveness of weapons.

Even advanced weapons such as tanks, if they were dispersed and used only as mobile fire points to support infantry attacks and mobile batteries during defense, and if they were concentrated as assault forces, they could create the miracle of the German war in 1939.

The European-style line infantry was able to dominate the battlefield as an all-round arm because they relied on muskets with bayonets with rings, superior training and discipline, and the ability to attack, hold, hand-to-hand combat, and long-range fire.

Most of the time, the musketeers in the Qing army were only playing the role of auxiliary firepower.

They simply swapped their bows and arrows for muskets that were easier to use, or they simply took the two of them into battle together.

In such a situation, their tactical role is actually no different from that of traditional archer troops.

After experiencing the humiliation of being detained by foreign powers, the Qing people also realized the great superiority of the modern military system.

The soldiers of the Hunan army were mainly poor peasants and scoundrels.

These people are not captured and entered the army, they take the initiative to join the army just to seek wealth.

Zeng Guofan relied on high salaries and allowing robbery to concentrate on his life, combined with the strong indoctrination of traditional Confucian Taoism, and relied on registration to ensure that soldiers could not flee.

In the end, the discipline and organization of the Hunan army were sufficient for such a tactical system.

Soon after the conquest of Tianjing, the Hunan army, from the senior generals to the ordinary soldiers, quickly became corrupted and lost their former majesty.

Seven years later, Zuo Zongtang led the Hunan army to the west to quell the rebellion, and was defeated by Ma Zhanao in the battle of Taizi Temple, and the ten battalions of the Hunan army were defeated.

The limitations of the army's structure have constrained its organizational level, and modern tactics have lost their fundamental guarantee.

Li Hongzhang's Huai army came from behind, and thanks to the foresight of Li Hongzhang's Zhongtang, they may have been the first European-style army in modern China.

At least in terms of the tactical system.

It has been proven that it will not work.

During the Qing and French Wars, Zhang Shusheng, a famous general of the Huai Army, pointed out that the West had great superiority over the Qing Empire in terms of politics and national defense and military system, and it was by no means possible to catch up with or even surpass it by purchasing foreign weapons and learning foreign technology.

The army is the epitome of society, and if the society is corrupt, the army will have no combat power.

But in any case, the existence of the Huai army also fully proves the Qing people's attempts and efforts to change.

In EuropeIn 1849, French Captain Migne invented the world's first sub-caliber front-loading rifled rifle.

Since then, the rifled gun ammunition problem that has plagued the musket for more than half a century has been perfectly solved, which makes the first epoch-making leap in the range, accuracy and ballistic performance of the musket.

If until the forties of the 19th century there was still a stubborn belief that a certain bow was superior to the smoothbore gun that dominated the battlefield, the advent of the Migne rifle made any weapon that relied on stored mechanical energy to fire as a child's toy in front of it.

After that, rifled rifles were replaced.

The Europeans soon realized the enormous potential of this new weapon, which was the beginning of the decline of line tactics.

In the summer of 1854, at the Battle of Balaclava, Major General Colin Campbell led his 93rd Regiment in the Scottish Highlands, facing the charge of 2,500 Russian heavy cavalry, forming two horizontal columns, relying on the Migne rifle and "the courage of blood and fire" to defeat the Russian army in one fell swoop.

This was the first time that the line infantry relied on horizontal and rifle fire to break down a cavalry charge, and the Scottish Highland infantry became famous all over the world.

In the autumn of the same year, during the Battle of Inkerman, the Anglo-French forces lined up in a skirmish line relied on the superior firepower of the Migne rifle to crush several white-knuckle charges of the brave Russian army.

Eight years later, in the Taiping Army's Eastern Crusade, Li Hongzhang's Huai Army was small in number, although it had not been formed for a long time.

However, relying on the heavily equipped Enfield Model 1853 Migne rifle, it was able to repeatedly repel the powerful attacks of the Taiping army.

The Huai army in the late Taiping War was already close to a modern army.

In 1866, the first truly full-fledged breech-loading rifled rifle, the French Chasebo rifle, was officially launched.

Its superior performance was enough to eclipse all other models of rifles in Europe.

It had a longer range than the Prussian Dreiser breech rifle and surpassed the superior Mineer rifle in terms of rate of fire.

It can be called the originator of the custom breech breech gun.

In 1871, the German firearms expert Peter Paul Mauser invented the world's first copper-shelled rifle, which completely solved the problem of air tightness of the rear-loading gun.

In 1886, Colonel Nicolas Lebel of France invented Lebel 1886, the world's first rifle to use smokeless gunpowder.

And it relied on a tubular magazine to achieve continuous ammunition feeding.

Of course, in these decades, it is not only the musket that has made a leap forward in performance, but also the great progress of artillery technology with the great development of technology and productivity brought about by the industrial revolution.

Since then, line tactics have also declined, and formation is no longer important to the infantry.

Whether it is the European powers that lead the world trend or the Qing Empire, it is only stupid and backward to practice rigid linear tactics in this era.

The Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War were perhaps the last modern wars, and they were also the last arenas for linear tactics.

The Pickett charge in the Battle of Gettysburg is undoubtedly a tragic heroic elegy, and it also vividly embodies the discipline and tenacity of the modern army.

In this battle, nine infantry brigades of the Southern Army, with a total of 12,500 soldiers, were exposed in the open field, advancing three-quarters of a mile, about 1,300 meters.

Within 500 yards was also hit by rifled rifle fire.

After paying more than half of the casualties, he was finally defeated.

In both wars, advances in rifle rate of fire, range accuracy, and reloading made it possible to completely replace line tactics with skirmishers.

Both the traditional military powers of the European continent and the emerging country of the United States, far across the ocean, have begun to make attempts to carry out a comprehensive reform of the tactical system.

At the beginning of World War I, the British and French armies, whose generals still stubbornly believed that "even trotting forward is an act of dishonor", quickly changed their tactics after experiencing the lessons of blood, and since then the linear tactics have completely disappeared.

In the 1884 Qing-French War, the French army, which was equipped with the 1874 Grass-style rifle, had basically abandoned the traditional line tactics, and the Qing army and the Black Flag Army, which were mainly equipped with rifled guns, also used skirmish tactics as the mainstream.

Under the terrible fire of breech-loading rifles, the imposing line infantry was undoubtedly a slow-moving live target.

By the time of Yuan Shikai, the new army trained by the Qing court was already a new type of army that was completely modeled after the new military system of the European continent.

Therefore, the Chinese can be said to have completely missed the era of queuing to be shot.

Tall and strong, warriors dressed in splendid military uniforms, lined up in a neat formation, accompanied by military music and drums, slowly but firmly attacked the enemy with muskets with bayonets, which is a kind of classicist romance with a blood color.

It embodies the courage and dignity of man in the face of death, and the sense of heroic epic in the Greek style.

Since then, the war has ceased to be romantic, with only cold, bloody killings and a long list of fallen soldiers.

As for the technical issues, the Qing Dynasty people could not make usable firearms, not because the technical level of the manufacturing industry at that time could not be reached, but because it was completely a problem in the production process.

Because muskets were ready to be mass-produced in Europe long before the Industrial Revolution.

How come China has never seen a large-scale musket array, as a civilized country, the main battle troops will inevitably fight in formation.

As a weapon that is slow to reload and has an extremely long interval between fires, the front-loading musket must have depth.

As a flat-firing weapon, muskets can only be fired in the first and second rows, plus the two factors of fighting in formations and large depth, so the rotation tactics will inevitably appear.

As long as muskets became the main equipment of the army, queuing to shoot was the norm on the battlefield.

By the time of the Qianlong period, the musket armament rate of the main force of the Qing army had reached about half.

In the expedition to Dzungaria, there were 75 musketeers for every 100 infantry, and three-quarters of the infantry were musketeers.

Therefore, the Qing army is not unable to complete the tactics of queuing up to shoot in hardware, but the lack of system.

A court ruled by a backward nation is too politically backward, too corrupt, too ideologically imprisoned, too backward, and it is simply impossible to train troops that emphasize discipline.

An hour later, nearly half of the Eight Banners were stagnant and did not dare to charge.

They believed in evil first, and even if Nurhachi still did not order Mingjin to withdraw his troops, they dared to take a step further.

On the contrary, after Jiannu stopped attacking, Tan Maniac, who was in charge of the commander-in-chief, ordered a surprise attack and continued to force towards the Jiannu camp.

In fact, on the city wall just now, President Wei did not mention any specific battle plans or battle orders to Madman Tan.

Madman Tan figured out what the president meant, which was nothing more than to kill and injure Jiannu as much as possible.

Therefore, he led the army to further force Jiannu, and the forced Jiannu was unable to form an army, and the cavalry infantry retreated in confusion, abandoning the camp, and creating an opportunity for the Baojun cavalry regiment on the periphery of Ningyuan City to cover up and kill, which was the best opportunity to kill and injure Jiannu in large quantities.

Nurhachi was already in a state of stupor.

Nurha's red eyes were red, and she sat stupidly, looking at the two sides in the fierce battle not far away.

Nurhachi's generals urged the Khan to return to his tent, but Nurhachi ignored him.

In fact, everyone wants to say that it is dangerous here, and they want to talk about the withdrawal of troops.

But these words, no one dares to say them, this is a big battalion, when did the big battalion of the Eight Banners become a dangerous place?

This is something that has never happened to Jiannu, who has been crisscrossing Liaodong for decades, at least after the Battle of Sarhu, he has never encountered such a passive situation.

Everyone didn't dare to imagine what the situation would be when the main force of the Eight Banners collapsed.

Fortunately, although the army of about 20,000 Jiannu did not dare to step forward, it did not collapse, and still circled in place, wanting to fight a decisive battle with the treasure army that rushed up.

In the entire nine battalions, the casualties of the 4,500 Bao Army were only in double digits, and the total casualties were less than 100 people, and they rushed over with the huge power of killing nearly 20,000 Jiannu, which was quite terrifying.

At this time, four thousand five hundred people were connected in a straight line, and a full nine hundred people were in a row, a total of five rows, and rushed forward in a neat step.

The soldiers of the treasure army sang the military song as they marched: "Unity is strength!" Unity is strength! This power is iron! This power is steel! Harder than iron! Stronger than steel! ……”

Jiannu is not to say that he is frightened, but when facing such an army, everyone can't help but feel frightened.

The battle record is the most morale-boosting and the most courageous, and they all know that until now, they have not even touched each other's hair, and nearly 20,000 people have died on their own side.

At this point, in the face of the overwhelming pressure of the treasure army, how much courage do you have to stand up?

"Remind the Great Khan to withdraw his troops, right? All retreat to the battalion to defend, otherwise if this continues, the whole army will be wiped out! Bao Chengxian took Huang Taiji aside and admonished.

This kind of thing, in normal times, a traitor like Bao Chengxian would not dare to say it.

Because their identity as traitors on Jiannu's side is very embarrassing.
