Chapter 692: Hong Chengchou wants to strike first, but ......
Traveling outside the Sai, even if there are Sky Giant Eagles and Wanli Killing members to guide the direction, the land is too wide, the road is too long, and it will take time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Just when the Zhu Jiajun attacked against the encirclement, it was far away from the side of the Daming border Guanshan Pass. Up and down the mountain, there are flags all over the place, filled with a strong battlefield atmosphere.
Hong Chengchou attaches great importance to this battle, because Huang Taiji came in person, and he felt that the first battle would have to play the momentum of the Ming Dynasty.
In the military account, he sighed: "According to the report of the sentinels, Songshan Ridge and other places, the main ones are inlaid with blue flags, one is the blue flag, and there are some Mongolian cavalry, the number of which is only more than 10,000. ”
However, it is said that it has many firearms such as Hongyi cannons and bird guns. The Tartar cavalry galloped down from the mountain and attacked from the side. If our army attacks the Loess Ridge, the Songshan Ridge Slave Cavalry Club should be attacked, which is quite difficult. What do you guys think? ”
Hearing this, all the great generals frowned and pondered.
When it was young, the generals had their own ideas, but no one could convince anyone. After arguing, it was not until late at night that I reluctantly came up with a plan.
A few days later.
The Ming army built a large number of mountain-attacking equipment, such as chariots, pointed heads, nest carts, mantle carts, trenches and bridges.
Later, the Jin branch was also on the occupied mountain, intending to hold it, so that the grain route of the Ming army could not be continued, and this battle must be indispensable.
At the foot of the mountain, the two sides of the horse and the night do not close each other every day, resolutely counterattack, the two sides launched a series of confrontations, the smell of gunpowder around Songshan Fort, more and more thick.
The tactics of attacking the mountain on the side of the Ming Dynasty, all officials and generals, also carried out repeated discussions, which were not full of fierce controversy. But I can't always come up with the most perfect tactics and plans!
One of the difficulties is that today's Houjin is very different.
There are many heavy cannons on all the hills, and there are some small cannons. Franc cannons, etc. Arranged in the front ridge defense line. Then, these cannons were matched with the earthen walls of the trenches, plus some birds, bows and arrows, etc. Every line of defense is lethal at a glance!
Competition, better than the Ming army that is good at defending the city.
Sure enough, Houjin was promoted and learned in the war. Amazing people!
On the mountain ridge, there are also some crossbow arrows, trebuchets, ash bottle cannons and other weapons, it seems that the Hou Jin Qing army on the soil ridge is to guard the walled wall as a city.
Seeing such a picture, the faces of Hong Chengchou and Zhu Mingjiang were also not good-looking.
This is only a part of the Houjin army, if it can't be solved quickly, once Huang Taiji's support army comes, this place will be completely uncapturable, and at that time, the grain route of the Ming Dynasty will be lost.
In turn, the border army has become a chicken surrounded by others.
Time matters!
On the third day, the Ming army began to attack.
The 15,000 people of the Xuanzhen Army were dispatched, and the other border troops were also tens of thousands of people, a total of more than 30,000 horses, attacking the 10,000 Houjin defenders on the mountain.
After the general soldiers of each town arrived with their soldiers and horses, they went to the governor Hong Chengchou to take revenge. At this moment, the continuous military formation was silent and solemn, and even the people who were digging and filling the trenches were silent, intimidated by the military situation. The silence before the big war is only for a moment!
Occasionally, a few horses neighed, cutting through the empty wilderness. On the contrary, it makes the atmosphere more and more tense!
The eunuch and the eunuch army didn't like this atmosphere, and laughed and said: "Everyone, the kings and teachers are gathered, and they will definitely be able to win the battle and go down in a battle." ”
Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "Xie Jian Jun Ji Yan!" ”
"The auspicious time has arrived." A soldier shouted.
Hong Chengchou nodded: "Blow the trumpet, attack!" ”
"Woo woo, woo woo!" "Woo woo, woo woo!" "Woo woo, woo woo!"
Immediately, the horns of the Chinese army sounded in unison, and a passionate atmosphere rippled.
Hong Chengchou shouted again: "Beat the war drums!" ”
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Hong Chengchou shouted: "Attack! ”
Tens of thousands of troops, marching densely to the sound of passionate drumming. In the end, they began to charge forward, and thousands of troops marched together, which was very spectacular!
……
In the face of the attack of the Ming army, the Houjin army on the mountain was also immediately like a great enemy.
Watching the sea of people move below, Dolgon's heart was heavy, and the Ming army was strong. Tens of thousands of troops were dispatched this time, and if I was serious, there were only less than 10,000 soldiers, could I really hold it firmly?
You must know that the border army of the Ming Dynasty is not a mainland army, and its combat effectiveness is still good.
When it was little, it was under the mountain.
With the sound of a long horn, the torrent of the Ming army stopped. This is the final preparation!
On the mountain, the traitor soldiers of the Han Eight Banners saw that the artillery array of the Ming army under the mountain had been erected, and they were about to open fire. I'm worried!
The red flag is fixed on the mountain, and Liu Zhiyuan looked at the side with an anxious expression, the Eight Banners Manchuria is the white flag master Dolgon, and the white flag is inlaid with the white flag Lord Duoduo.
Seeing his complexion, Dolgon asked Kong Youde beside him: "Respect the king, my Shenwei general cannon of the Qing Dynasty." How far can you go? ”
Kong Youde replied: "The flat land can generally be hit for four or five miles, and the mountains can be hit down the mountain, taking advantage of the situation to go downwind, I think it is not a problem to hit eight miles, but this hit rate is difficult to say." ”
Hearing Kong Youde say this, Dolgon waved his hand: "Don't waste too much gunpowder and cannons, but military prestige is also important." Listen to my order, wait for the Ming army to enter within seven miles, and fire a few cannons first. Then decide the number of artillery shots according to the distance, our army's wall is strong, and it is not so easy for the Ming army to use artillery to hit. ”
Kong Youde said: "Yes." ”
Soon, the Later Jin Qing army on the hill began to move.
The transposition of the artillery transport, the artillery shell, the logistics of logistics, and the report of the report. It's very lively!
When he saw the Ming army rushing to about eight miles, Kong Youde shouted: "Start testing the cannon!" ”
A Houjin gunner lit the fuse of a cannon that hit a twelve-pound cannon, and everyone looked nervous. All eyes on the hissing sparkling fire gate leads. Expect a miracle!
Rumble!
The cannon body shook violently, and a big black iron bullet rushed out of the cannon chamber and flew quickly towards the Ming army's position under the mountain in the distance.
For a while, both sides of the Ming and Qing dynasties looked at the direction of the cannonball's flight and the place where it landed.
Some believe it will hit, some don't.
Eventually, the shells stirred up a large area of dirt, and finally rolled down the slope and settled in a place of mud and sand. And didn't hit anyone!
Seeing that the artillery of the Qing army on the mountain was not threatening, the Ming army under the mountain cheered.
Only, Hong Chengchou's face is very ugly, and at a distance of nearly eight miles, he is about to be shelled, which is not good news.
The other party, the location on the mountain is too convenient, and the artillery that has been on the side can only fight for five miles at most, and it is fought from the bottom up, and the power is greatly reduced.
How good is that?
However, the arrow is ready to be sent, and at this time, it is impossible to stop planning anything.
Only, when they walked down the mountain five miles.
Sure enough, things changed dramatically.
Boom, boom, boom, the cannon rang out non-stop, and Hong Chengchou and other people who felt the might of the artillery at close range had their hearts beating violently.
On the artillery hill of the Qing army, a group of shells was fired. I don't know how many huge shells came at my side. Full flood!
"Ahh
For a while, countless soldiers in the Ming army let out frightened screams.
