Chapter 655: War
Chen Xin sighed with some regret and said, "I really hope that Dolgon can stand boldly on the rammed earth wall, in that case, the artillerymen on our side will definitely teach him a lesson."
If he could be killed with one shot here, then none of the remaining Baylors, ministers, and the like in the Jin army would have enough prestige to unite the Jurchen Eight Banners that had gathered together.
If that really happens, the entire Houjin may immediately fall apart, turn into several tribes, and return to its original state. ”
Chief of Staff Liu also quipped on the side, "If this kind of thing really happens, it will be much easier to deal with Houjin."
Although there has been some disharmony between the Jurchen Eight Banners, judging from today's situation, Dolgon's prestige in the Tartars is still enough, otherwise he would not have launched such a huge attack. ”
Having said that, it stopped, the war could not develop so smoothly in the direction they wanted, everything had to rely on hard power.
Chen Xin cheered up and gave a serious order: "At this time, let's stop thinking about what happened to Houjin, and don't care who is Dolgon's cronies, who is not his cronies or even hostile forces, everything must be fought according to the needs of the battlefield." ”
"My subordinates understand."
····················
Laizi's feet were covered with muddy water, and he staggered behind Jin Zhong's back all the way, and from time to time he would stop and rub his red and swollen feet because the surface of his feet was frozen a little stiff by muddy water.
They had already reached the front line, and although it was uncomfortable to walk in the deep trenches that had begun to accumulate water, they had no choice but to do so for the sake of their lives, after all, there were countless rifles pointing at this side in front of them, and countless strong bows were also pointing at them behind them.
Laizi and Jin Zhong were dressed in the same clothes as them, some carrying woven frames full of dirt on their backs, others carrying short ladders.
It was cold under his feet, but Laizi's forehead was full of fine beads of sweat because of nervousness, and this feeling of ice and fire made his head blank.
There were about 50 people in their group, basically all from the same Niu Lu, and behind them were more than 30 Mongol soldiers, and a little further back were more than 50 armor soldiers and Yu Ding, ten of whom were still from Dolgon's own Niu Lu.
According to what the above person said, today is the largest attack in a long time, and all the Houjin men and horses stationed in the direction of the earthen wall are going to attack, and Dolgon's people are the overseers sent over.
According to what they said this morning, before there is no Ming Jin, all those who return will be beheaded.
After appointing the subordinates of his men, he drew a bright red mark on each of them with red paint, and he told everyone that anyone who appeared in the rear positions before the end of the battle would be beheaded on the spot, and that no matter who he was, he would not be pardoned.
In the future, the tactics of the Jin army, such as Baoyi and Aha slave cannon fodder, have always been ranked in the first round to attack.
The fire thunder that was sent to them just now, the coats have already used it and are familiar with it in the previous attack, anyway, no matter how changeable the style is and how bad the appearance is, it is the same process as throwing it out immediately after ignition, and everyone has a bottom in their hearts.
If they threw fire and thunder from the trench closest to the Huaxia army that they had dug in the past few days, there was probably a certain possibility that they could throw the fire and thunder in their hands behind the rammed earth wall of the Huaxia army opposite.
After a burst of conch sounds, the armor soldiers behind began to scold loudly, Jin Zhong also shouted, and the wrappers in front of him also began to walk according to the password.
It's just that from time to time, there are people in the queue crying in a low voice, looking as if they are not fighting but going directly to the vegetable market to be beheaded.
Jin Zhong was proud in his heart, fortunately, he had already taken refuge in Dajin and became the little leader in the coat, so that he could let this group of poor insects stand in front of him.
Anyway, in this case, if you want to die, the person in front will die first, and he, Jin Zhong, with so many years of experience in war, only needs to keep the only property in his family, the slave assigned to him, will not die.
As for the others, he is just a small leader of the coat, and he really has no ability to preserve, even if he has been working for Dajin for so long, he is still a coat slave after all. This is the sorrow of the slave.
After walking a short distance, this trench turned into a straight road, which was very short, and at the end of the trench there was a very high earth rampart that was built up, which was specially used to block the sight of the Huaxia army.
Lai Zi followed Jin Zhong firmly, and kept looking at the sides of his head along the way, for fear that he would suddenly fall without a grenade if he didn't know when.
The kind of thing called a grenade that is not black and sloppy and not amazing is much more powerful than the general-sized fire thunder made by them on the Houjin side.
Occasionally, there will be a few stink bombs rolling on the ground without sounding, but as long as it is a grenade, the power is definitely fresh in people's minds.
Once exploding, the grenade will explode dozens of pieces of iron shrapnel, and in some cases the slightly larger models will be loaded with dozens of steel balls. Whether it is a piece of iron or a steel ball, as long as one hits, the person is basically hopeless.
Especially for these coats, grenades are even more terrifying, they are minions who have no qualifications to go down to the line of fire to recuperate, so they can only wait for the blood to dry up in front, and then die miserably.
At the end of the straight line of the trench, after turning a bend laterally again, he entered a trench that was advancing diagonally, and Laizi had dug here before, so he knew very well that this place was only about twenty paces away from the Huaxia army.
At that time, in order to dig this trench, there were at least 30 people who died in this vicinity, that is, the coat in front of him, and now it seems that there are still shrapnel from the explosion of grenades and discarded fragments of fire mines on the Houjin side on both sides of the trench.
At this time, one of the wrappers who walked in the front suddenly screamed "wow", and knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
At this moment, there was a noisy and chaotic scene in the trench, Jin Zhong pushed away the two blocking coats in front of him, used his waist as a tool knife, and the scabbard of the combat knife, desperately smashing the crying coat.
Jin Zhong scolded loudly while beating back: "Your brother dog, what kind of hysteria is there here, if you don't want to die, hurry up for Lao Tzu and continue to move forward!" ”
