Chapter 531: The back attack was frustrated

The Qing army cottage was built on the top of a 200 zhang high mountain, and the trees on the hillside were like the Ming army's big village, cut down in the air, which could not only prevent the Ming army from attacking, but also clear the shooting boundary.

In July, the red sun is scorching, there is no wind blowing on the mountain, the flag planted on the wall of the wall hangs listlessly, the Qing soldiers on the wall and the Ming army at the foot of the mountain do not make a sound, only the cicadas in the distant woods make bursts of chirping, making the air full of restlessness.

The Ming army was divided into two parts, Gao Yigong led the loyal army and a Tusi soldiers and horses, monitoring Wanxian City to prevent the Qing soldiers from suddenly killing.

The other was arrayed at the foot of the mountain, and the soldiers stood like a forest under the scorching sun. Fortunately, most of the Ming army were southerners, and the middle route army was more of a Canton people, and the Ming army was mostly equipped with southern cloth armor, which was far more resistant to heat than the Qing army.

On the wall, the Qing soldiers were already sweating just by standing, and the northerners couldn't stand the scorching heat in the south, and they had to go back to Beijing almost every year to escape the summer, and they still didn't adapt to it after three years of entering the customs.

5,000 Qing soldiers, Li Guoying's 2,000 people are okay, they originally belonged to Wuchang Zuozhen, the armor is mainly cloth armor, and the situation of 3,000 Liao soldiers is much worse, cotton armor is worn on the body, and it is sweaty if it does not move.

On dog days, just standing under the sun for an hour, the soldiers couldn't stand it, Wang Yan stood on the car and saw that the army was finished, so he immediately ordered: "You can start!" ”

The drums behind him heard the sound, topless, beat the war drums, the sun shone on the drummer's bronze and muscular back, the sweat beads on his body reflected the sunlight, and the thick arms opened the bow left and right, smashing the drum hammer on the war drum, the more and more urgent, making an inspiring sound.

"The majestic man will return to the rivers and mountains!"

The sound of war drums broke the silence on the battlefield, and tens of thousands of loyal soldiers followed the sound of war drums, raised their spears, drew their war swords, held them high and pointed to the sky, shouted in unison, and roared out the restlessness in their hearts, which was magnificent and exuded an overwhelming murderous aura.

The five loyal troops roared three times in a row, and the western army in front of them clenched their weapons and did not say a word, Li Dingguo looked back at the Ming army behind him, and his face was pensive.

A centaur can emit such momentum, not by training, it must be fought again and again on the battlefield, the spirit of fighting, and the heart of victory.

The white pole soldiers of that year, as well as Cao Wenzhao's men and horses, could have such momentum, and I couldn't imagine that since the Manchu Qing Dynasty invaded the south, since the Ming Dynasty had played such a strong army, the era of the Western Army was really over.

At this time, the Chinese army looked at the car, Wang Yan looked coldly at the wall on the top of the mountain, the wall was full of dense Qing archers, before them, the Qing army also built a simple low wall, and the Qing army swords, shields, and spears of the brigade stood there to prevent the Ming army from approaching the wall.

On the first line of this low wall, the Qing soldiers also piled up a large number of stones, rolling wood, and put them down by the mountain, and they could smash a piece of it, Wang Yan could imagine that the Ming army would inevitably have a large number of casualties, and the Ming army would climb the slope and attack up, and almost no equipment would be used.

The road for the Qing army to enter Shu was difficult, there was no red-coated cannon, the Ming army came all the way from Guizhou, and the road was not easy to walk, and Wang Yan brought several twelve-pounder cannons, which were finally thrown directly in Guizhou and could not be pulled in.

Now the little Francophone could not hit the top of the mountain at all, and the Western Army, which was responsible for the first wave of attack, could not use any other equipment except for a light bamboo ladder made of bamboo.

"Xianggong, the Western Army is ready!" Looking at the chess and card officers on the car, he saw the Western Army raising the flag and reporting loudly.

At this time, the war drums had been beating for a while, and the morale of the Ming army was mobilized, Wang Yan looked at the front of the formation, and saw that the 10,000 Western troops had already carried bamboo ladders, held rattan cards, and stepped forward to take position.

Wang Yan knew in his heart that this wave of attacks would definitely suffer heavy casualties, and he would not even be able to touch the walls of the Qing army, but he had to look at the defensive means of the Qing army before he could formulate a strategy for attacking the mountain in the future.

"Order, Sun Kewang will attack!"

With Zhang Xianzhong's death, the Onishi regime had ended, and Wang Yan, the imperial court, and the gentry and civil bureaucracy would not tolerate the continued existence of the Western Army, which represented the interests of the peasant class.

Wang Yan knew that there were heavy casualties in the attack on the mountain, so he naturally couldn't let the Wuzhong Army go first, and it happened that Sun Kewang was hesitant to accept the adaptation, so this task of taking the lead was naturally obligated for the Western Army.

Of course, this is also Wang Yan forcing Sun Kewang to recognize the situation and stop having any illusions.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

The rhythm of the war drums became more rapid, and the banner of the attack was played on the looking car, and the 10,000 western troops who came out suddenly roared loudly, rushing to the foot of the mountain like a tide, carrying hundreds of bamboo ladders, brandishing war knives and spears, and shouting to climb up.

Nearly 10,000 horses, holding shields and kicking the mountain, dense like a swarm of ants moving.

On the wall, more than 20 four-pounder Franc machines of the Qing army took the lead in firing, and the iron bullets smashed down, and the speed was extremely fast, but most of them hit the rocks, and the debris splashed, and the Western army that was startled and climbed quickly lowered its body.

The western army continued to climb, and gradually reached the mountainside with the running bullets that were thrown from time to time.

Qing general Li Guoying stood behind the low wall, looked down, and saw a dense crowd, but he was not alarmed.

"Hmph, I want to use the sea of people to attack the cottage!" Li Guoying didn't hold the Chongqing River Defense, and now he decided to be ashamed, he sneered and ordered: "Let the thunder stone roll wood!" ”

On the low wall, when the Qing soldiers heard the order, they immediately raised their knives to cut the ropes on the baffle, and as soon as the ropes were broken, the wooden planks blocking the stones immediately fell, and the boulders fell suddenly, and they rolled down the hillside, making a burst of collision sounds.

Li Dingguo looked up, only to feel that there was a stone rain on the mountain, his face changed, and after grabbing a boulder in a few steps, he turned around and shouted: "Quick, dodge." ”

For a time, there were screams on the hillside, and pieces of stones fell down, and the soldiers of the Western Army couldn't avoid them at all, and they were hit by huge stones one by one, and their bodies were suddenly deformed, and the stones hit the people in front of them, and they didn't stop, and continued to roll in the crowd along the hillside with huge inertia.

These stones were extremely fast, rolling from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and still rolling more than twenty steps on the flat ground, and the corpses of the soldiers who were hit also rolled down the hillside, tripping over their comrades, so that the soldiers who were not hit also rolled out of the distance.

This time alone, under the collision of the thunder stone, the Western Army suffered two or three hundred casualties, broken bones and tendons, and wailing sounded.

After the thunder stone, the Qing army began to smash the rolling wood down the mountain again, and a long log was thrown down the mountain, and the effect was stronger than the thunder stone.

The Qing army looked at the crowded place, and smashed a log down, and immediately knocked down a piece.

On the hillside, when the Western Army reached the mountainside, they suffered heavy casualties, and every round of boulders fell and rolling logs were thrown, bringing hundreds of casualties. The hillside was already littered with corpses, smashed bodies, smashed human heads, and rivers of blood, staining the boulders and logs that had fallen to the foot of the mountain red.

"Big brother!" Ai Nengqi took a few steps to the back of the mountain rock where Sun Kewang was hiding, and shouted: "We can't stand it, the casualties are too heavy!" ”

Sun Kewang saw that the Western Army had not yet approached the range of the Qing army's bows and arrows, and suffered heavy casualties, if the rain of arrows and thunder stones were added, the casualties would definitely be huge, his face changed, "Order to retreat immediately!" ”

"No!" Liu Wenxiu, who was on the side, hurriedly stopped him, "Without the order of the prince Wang, we can't retreat!" ”
