Yang Feng's anti-center-right Qing army's counterattack did not appear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There is only a group of Han troops with yellow flags, even the Manchurian uncle has been wiped out, even Yild has been picked up on the flagpole and stood on the city wall, how can they dare to counterattack with a bunch of cannon fodder, as for Yang Feng has no interest in attacking, although he easily captured Ningyuan, but the Ming army also killed and wounded nearly two hundred people, this cavalry is his real cronies, successive victories have made these soldiers have a blind worship of him, such people are very loyal, they can be used as seeds, and they need to be protected as much as possible, There's no need to waste a small goal that's not worth mentioning.

Similarly, even the Qing army in the mountains did not go south.

About 200 Qing troops who ran out from Ningyuan went to the north, and it is estimated that they have been spreading his myth in Lianshan, and at this time, Ai Duli, who was stationed in Jinzhou, is probably still inexplicable.

And there are not many soldiers in Jinzhou.

Dolgon is preparing to lead a large army to the west, like last time, out of Jizhou to attack Beijing with Li Zicheng, or kill two birds with one stone when the Ming army and Li Zicheng are both defeated, it is estimated that even the news of Li Zicheng's capture of Beijing is enough to know, at this time the transmission speed of information is very slow, and even the news of his capture of Ningyuan may not be known. In short, everything was calm the day after he captured Ningyuan, Vice General Chen conscientiously led his subordinates to count the materials in the city and arrange the city defense, although this general is not very good at fighting, but he is a very good assistant talent, at least Yang Feng's performance these days is still very satisfied.

"How do you use this thing?"

He sat on a prince's chair at the top of the city wall and asked curiously as he looked at the bird gun that a soldier was fiddling with in his hand.

He didn't find a few cannons in Ningyuan City, the original cannons here were all taken away by Wu Sangui, and when the Qing army came, they only brought a total of four bronze cannons that should be regarded as red-coated cannons, and there were four Furlong machines that belonged to the breech loading, but there were hundreds of them, in fact, including his 10,000 infantry who were coming, nearly half of them had to be this ancient arquebus, at this time, whether it was the Qing army or the Ming army, the proportion of firearms was amazing.

"Quick, show your majesty!"

An officer hurriedly said.

The soldier hurriedly pulled out a small bamboo tube from his waist, pulled out the plug and carefully poured the gunpowder in the bamboo tube into the barrel, then took out a lead pellet from the box on his waist, put it in from the muzzle, and then took out the whole strip under the barrel and stretched it in and pestle it hard, opened the fire door cover, and then pulled out another small pot from his waist, poured some gunpowder into the medicine pool of the fire door, shook the gun several times, presumably to let the gunpowder leak down, and then pulled out the fire rope from his waist and clamped it on the broken fire rope clip, took out the fire fold and blew, and led the fire rope first, then he picked up the gun and took aim in front of him.

"So troublesome?"

Yang Feng said speechlessly.

"Your Majesty, birds are all like this, but when fighting, they are all fired in three or five rows in turn, so the interval between firing is very short."

The officer said.

"How far can you hit? Truth be told, no bragging. ”

Yang Feng asked.

"It's hard to say, if you can't wear the armor of thirty zhang should still be able to hurt people, but if you wear the cotton armor, it is less than ten zhang, wear a thick point is estimated to be able to hurt within five zhang is very good, like Your Majesty wear a layer of thick cotton armor with iron plates, and then put on two layers of chain mail, and then tie a circle of mountain armor outside, even if it can penetrate the actual skin, if you can cross a shield car in front, it is almost useless, and this thing is because the people of the Ministry of Industry are shoddy, and it is often easy to blow up, according to the minister's look, It's really better to use a hard bow with this, but the hard bow can't be pulled away by ordinary people! ”

The officer said.

Yang Feng nodded.

He did know this very well, yesterday he received more than 30 bullets on his body, and a few of the deepest legs only hit a centimeter into the flesh, and before he could be specifically treated, he was directly pushed out by the healing muscles, and finally took off his armor and shook the lead pills on the ground, and he was quite speechless when he saw it.

"Then why don't you think this bird can't hit far?"

Yang Feng asked.

Before the officer could come up with it, the demo soldier stopped talking.

"You say."

Yang Feng pointed at him and said.

"Long live Qizuo, small, small thinks that this projectile is not good, this barrel is so thick, there is still a big gap between this projectile and the barrel, just like the bellows, if the gap on both sides is big, there will be air leakage, and the air leakage will be boring."

The soldier said as he lay on the ground.

"That's good, I'll reward you with a thousand households, but remember it first and then seal it later!"

Yang Feng said with satisfaction.

The little soldier hurriedly lay on the ground in excitement and thanked him.

"But the projectile is bigger, it is not easy to load it in, the barrel is actually different in thickness, and even because of the shoddy production, some barrels are not the same thickness before and after, if the projectile is made too fitting, it can't be loaded when it is used for more than half of it, so it can only be made smaller for easy loading."

The officer said.

"So why not put a layer on the bread outside? For example, linen, especially linen, wraps the projectile with this, isn't that equivalent to making it bigger? Then soak it in oil, even if it's a little bigger, because the burlap is soft, and if it's soaked in oil, it will be easy to stuff in, but it can seal the air leak, so that the range will increase when you shoot again? Of course, it doesn't have to be linen, soft leather is fine, such as deerskin. ”

Yang Feng said.

"Long live Shengming, the ministers are suddenly open!"

The officer hurriedly patted the horse.

"I'll leave this matter to you, I'll reward you with a Ministry of Industry first, and if I do it well, then I'll really give you an earl!"

Yang Feng patted him on the shoulder and said.

He can only do these things now, and these are not something that can be counted on in a short period of time, after all, neither Li Zicheng nor Dolgon will give him time to climb technology, if he really wants to defend this Ning Yuan, any other tricks are useless at this time, he can only fight with real knives and guns, in the final analysis, it is the mace in his hand that is the most reliable.

But the problem is that he doesn't work alone!

Even if he can fight again, he can't stop thousands of troops and horses, not to mention thousands of troops and horses, if the Ming army came half an hour late last night, he would have to die of exhaustion, his ability is to deal with a hundred-person level battle, and when he reaches the thousand-level level, he can be consumed to death by just consumption, so he also needs an army, not to mention an army that can fight, at least dare to fight.

There was actually nothing wrong with the Ming army fighting.

They all have what the Qing army has.

Needless to say, both sides are mainly cotton armor, and other armor chain mail is also a common thing, there is no difference in weapons, and even a large part of the weapons of the Qing army were captured from the Ming army, and the cold weapons are all the same, nothing more than some knives, spears, bows and arrows, as for the firearms of the Qing army, they are still developed by Kong Youde, these traitors, both sides are the same breech cannon and arquebus, that is to say, the two sides are at the same level in equipment.

Let's talk about the quality of soldiers.

The combat effectiveness of the Qing army's individual soldiers is indeed higher, which he also understands, but this does not mean that the Ming army is weak, at least at this time the Ming army under him is not, these people are also well-trained, and the degree of cutting off people's heads is not worse than that of the Qing army. To say that infantry in the field is really not good for the cavalry of the Qing army, but hiding in the castle and holding on, there is absolutely no problem, it is nothing more than shooting arrows and smashing them down with wolf teeth, neither need to face the torrent of iron cavalry nor face the spear like a forest. And the Qing army's siege of the city is now nothing more than relying on red-coated cannons, just the eighteen-pounder breech cannon solid bullet against a castle of the level of Ningyuan Shanhaiguan, he doesn't believe that it can really be eroded for dozens of miles with one shot, and it is really good to be able to break the arrow stack with one shot, and this has to deduct the tragic accuracy.

In the final analysis, the Ming army is inferior to this daring battle, if they really want to turn around and run away like yesterday with a hundred horsemen against fifty horsemen, then it is a fantasy to still win the battle.

"It takes courage!"

He sat on the Taishi's chair and muttered to himself as he looked at the green earth outside the city.

"Tartar!"

Suddenly, he was awakened by an exclamation.

Yang Feng hurriedly raised his head and looked into the distance, there was almost a Niu Lu's Zhenghuang Banner Manchurian soldiers coming from the north, obviously from Lianshan, there were also Qing troops stationed there, but they were not here to counterattack Ningyuan, it was impossible for this person to attack the city, and such a short time was not enough for Ai Duli to react, so they could only come to reconnoitre, after all, they needed to know the specific situation of Ningyuan at present.

"Go, bring Ilde!"

Yang Feng beckoned to an officer beside him and said.

The latter immediately beckoned the soldiers to leave with a wicked smile on their faces, and just as the Qing army entered within a mile of Weiyuanmen, the gang came over carrying Ilde's corpse, waving in the sky like a flag. The Qing army outside didn't see it clearly at first, but obviously guessed something, and then urged the horses to continue to approach the city wall, and when they got close enough to see the distance, they all galloped like crazy, and at the same time scattered and raised their bows and arrows to shoot at the city wall in the madness.

Yang Feng immediately ran to the back of a cannon, took the ignition pole in the hand of a soldier, lay down on the back and aimed carefully, and then without hesitation put the arquebus into the ignition hole.

The earth-shattering sound of the cannon suddenly sounded, in the fierce backseat of the cannon, a cannonball whistled out, instantly knocked out the entire upper body of Niu Lu, who led the team, and the kinetic energy of the cannonball was not exhausted, and then it hit another Qing soldier in the same straight line and also beat his upper body into a cloud of blood mist, which hit a rock in front of him, and quickly rebounded under the force of the impact, knocking the legs of the third Qing cavalry away, and the collapsed gravel also beat a Qing soldier to half of his face.

"Mah, this thing fits my identity!"

In a dumbfounded gaze, Yang Feng said with satisfaction.
