When most of the Chinese army came and urgently informed Yang Guozhu and others of the method that Wang Dou had come up with, Yang Guozhu slapped his legs and sighed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

During the Battle of Julu that year, Wang Dou's Shunxiang army used sacks and earthen baskets full of soil to defend against shells, why didn't he think of it. Sacks and other items can be stacked, and they can also be carried forward in the car to protect the safety of the sergeant.

Immediately, Yang Guozhu ordered all the men who pushed and pulled the longboard carts of the Chinese military department to step forward and use their vehicles full of sacks and earthen baskets to protect the front of the sergeants and the car battalion.

At this time, Yang Guozhu's department, the forward force of about 3,000 people, after paying a lot of casualties, under the cover of the chariot, marched quickly, and was not far from the Qing army on the first line of defense of the Loess Ridge, and it was almost at the foot of the mountain.

Although there are some artillery and bird guns on the wall of the Qing army in this place, they are under the fierce blow of the artillery fire of the Shenji Battalion, and the continuous firing of particularly poisonous smoke bombs and gray bullets has been ignored, and even if they open fire, it will not cause much harm.

Moreover, after approaching the foot of the mountain, because of the inclined plane, the artillery of the main ridge and the middle ridge of the Qing army also shifted their targets.

The key is that a large number of artillery and a large number of mountain attacking equipment were followed, and they marched slowly and had to advance, so they soon became the target of the Qing army's artillery in the main ridge and the middle ridge.

The artillery of the Shenji Battalion can't hit them, but they can shell as they want, and for a while the situation of artillery you hit yours and I hit me depends on who can't bear it first.

These car battalions, most of them are Sergeants of Youzhen, who usually only use artillery to hit others, and are rarely attacked by other people's artillery, and are suddenly hit by the Qing army's artillery, all of them are panicked and afraid, and they all rely on the pressure of Shangguan's bullets to barely march.

As for those people, before the battle, they saw the Tartar artillery constantly whistling over, and everyone around them was either dead or injured, and they were all panicked.

Fortunately, at this time, the Chinese army issued an order to use an earthen cart to cover the body to resist the Tartar shells.

As soon as they heard that the carts full of sacks and baskets could defend against shells, the men who immediately pushed the carts became the loveliest men in the army, and everyone rushed to want them.

Fortunately, not long after, a large number of earth-wheeled wagons were delivered to most of the Chinese army in the rear, and a large number of Jingbian military doctors arrived, carrying the casualties down, and the morale of the various mountain attack teams was more stable.

Soon, in Yang Guozhu's various armies, not only the forward troops, the support troops, and the Chinese troops, at least each team of people, there were several earth-carts in front of them, and the cavalry also dismounted and covered with earth-carts.

The chariots of the various chariot battalions and the equipment of the mountain attack also hid closely behind the earthen carts.

These carts were filled with sacks and baskets, and the front and sides of the carts were tied with numerous bags of earth.

Facts have proved that these earththen carts can indeed effectively protect the Tartar artillery, sometimes the earththen carts are hit by whistling shells, and the cloth and dirt are stirred up, but the whole vehicle will not explode and damage, and the people hiding behind the cars are also safe and sound.

Moreover, the earth-wheeled carts were densely packed, and the artillery shells of the Qing army were also difficult to form extensive ricochet damage. Although their artillery still inevitably caused some casualties, because some of the shells passed over the earthen carts and hit the chariots and infantry directly, but they were much better than the previous one-sided form.

For a time, the armies attacking the mountains were greatly boosted.

Yang Guozhu took the opportunity to give the order to speed up the march, and soon, wave after wave of attacking troops approached the first line of Qing defense in Loess Ridge.

Yang Guozhu's central military headquarters was less than a mile away from the defense line, and commanded the battle nearby.

In order to prevent artillery fire, in front of and on both sides of his Yuanrong car and Shuaiqi car, there were more densely piled up sacks and earthen baskets of various colors, forming a wall of battlements.

……

Because of the earthen carts, the artillery fire of the Qing army, which had just raged, immediately lost most of its power. …,

Watching the Ming army attacking the mountain, approaching the mountain in waves, Dolgon, Eduardo and others on the main ridge were dumbfounded.

Dolgon couldn't accept the immediate result, and shouted: "What's going on, why is my Qing artillery suddenly useless to the Ming army?" ”

He saw very clearly that the artillery of the Wuzhenha Chao Artillery Battalion on the mountain ridge was immediately as powerful as a tiger losing its teeth after the Ming army launched sack and earthen basket carts. Even if the shells hit their cars, they would have nothing but pick up some dirt or damage some of their vehicles.

Yang Guozhu's Chinese army stopped at the main array, and when the handsome flag was flying high, Dolgon was still happy that he might be able to kill the general of the Ming army with artillery.

Although it is more than two miles from the main ridge artillery array to Yang Guozhu's handsome flag car, such a long distance, how easy is it to hit a small vehicle?

However, under the bombardment of multiple artillery shells, a few shells did hit the sacks stacked in front of the Yuan Rong car and the Shuai Qi car. But the shells didn't do anything lethal except to stir up some mud rain.

The cavalry and infantry in their formation, too, were hiding closely behind the earththen carts, unable to do much damage to them.

Heaven in the blink of an eye, prison in the blink of an eye, how to make the mountains and mountains accept?

"Why do that?"

They all cursed and howled.

Shi Tingzhu roared angrily: "It must be a good thing that Wang Dou did again!" ”

Eduardo also looked and looked again with a clairnear, unable to believe his eyes.

He was horrified in his heart, using some simple sacks and earthen baskets, he could resist the invincible cannon? Even in Europe at this time, such tactics did not appear. Could it be that in terms of technology and tactics, the noble white people have fallen behind these yellow people?

The Qing artillery battalion in Loess Ridge bombarded desperately, but the Ming army battle formation still forced to the foot of the mountain step by step.

Huang Taiji and others in the mountain city were also stunned, and the Ming army used sacks and earthen baskets to block their own artillery? None of their luxurious and sturdy chariots could stop the artillery, and some simple mud bags placed on some simple vehicles could block the heavy whistling shells?

Huang Taiji suddenly said: "It's not good, our artillery is useless to them, wait for their artillery to come up, to prevent them from shelling me!" ”

His eyes were fixed on the dense earthen bag carts of the Ming army: "Order the Qing Dynasty in various places in the Loess Ridge to immediately carry and fill a large number of sacks and earthen baskets, and spread them on the defensive positions everywhere to prevent possible artillery bombardment by the Ming people!" ”

……

Because the Ming army was approaching the foot of the mountain, the artillery fire of the Shenji battalion also stopped at this time to prevent accidental injury to their friendly troops.

The Qing army of the first line of defense in the Loess Ridge, at this time, their trench walls have collapsed in many places, although the miscellaneous slaves in the army are desperately repairing, but under the artillery fire of the Ming army, it has little effect. However, the three trenches in front of the main wall, the low wall behind the trench repelled horses, and the stake ropes were mostly unharmed.

As soon as the artillery fire of the Ming army stopped, the Manchurian soldiers who supervised the battle took the opportunity to command the miscellaneous soldiers to repair the trench wall......

Because the Ming army was too close, the Hongyi three-pounder cannon they set up on the wall and the platform of the Niangniang Temple, no matter how to lower the firing, the shells still flew far over the heads of the Ming troops in the front wave, and some Buddha wolf machine artillery shot the earth car, and it could not cause much damage.

At this time, the artillery of the Qing army on the main ridge and the middle ridge, because of the slope of the mountain range, no longer shelled the Ming army in the vanguard, attacked the mountain Ming army, and took the opportunity to set up a mountain attack formation.

More than 100 steps away from the wall, especially at the gates of the wall, dense earthcarts are piled up.

Behind the earthen cart, bird gunners and spearmen were set up to prevent the Qing army from suddenly rushing out of the walled gate. Between these earthen carts, there are also some empty spaces for erecting artillery or for the Ming army to attack the passage. …,

The artillery of the Qing army was useless, the bird guns and bows and arrows were even more threatening, and their catapults, at such a distance, the degree of harm was minimal.

They watched the Ming army's defense line set up, and the Ming army's car battalion in the rear, under the cover of earth-wheeled vehicles, braved the artillery fire of the Qing army in the main ridge and the middle ridge, desperately pulling up the Franc machine and other guns, and there were countless mountain attack equipment behind, desperately pulling the generals up.

Liu Yongzhong, a bird armor, also approached the first line of the Qing army's defense line in the Loess Ridge, facing a Tartar gate a hundred steps away. In front of the gate of the village, a deep trench was dug and a heavy suspension bridge was pulled. Not far to the right of this walled gate, there is a collapsed walled wall, which seems to have collapsed by the artillery fire of the Shenji Battalion not long ago.

As long as your own mountain attacking equipment is pulled up, it is only in the blink of an eye to break through the defense line of the Tartar wall in front of you.

At this time, he and a team of brothers hid closely behind a few earthen carts, like them, not far from the front of the Qing army's wall, full of winding earthen carts, behind the earthen carts, all dressed in bright red cotton armor of Yang Guozhu's birds.

And a dozen paces behind him, there were rows of dirt carts. Hiding behind were pikemen in short armor.

Liu Yongzhong looked from behind the earthen cart, and the Qing soldiers behind the walled wall were shouting wildly, pointing at their earthen carts. Some of the Qing soldiers opened their guns with a bang, and at such a long distance, most of the guns did not know where to fly, and some of them were shot on the earthen carts, only stirring up small strands of soil flowers, and the sacks hissed and leaked soil.

Suddenly, Liu Yongzhong heard a drum behind the wall, the suspension bridge in front of him was lowered, the gate opened, and several waves of Tartar soldiers wearing white and red armor rushed out. Each of them was armed with heavy shields, and the shields in the front were even heavier, and they were afraid that they were iron shields.

They were wearing heavy armor, holding big swords and heavy axes, and rushed forward with a roar, Liu Yongzhong's heart beat violently, and he couldn't help shouting: "It's good!" ”

Look at the brothers beside him, leaning closely on the dirt cart, all of them have a nervous look on their faces. After all, after the training of the new army, it was the first time for everyone to face the genuine Tartar soldiers.

The ferocity of the Tartars has been known for a long time, and when they suddenly face it, they can't help but be a little panicked.

However, the weekday training worked, and the officials shouted desperately, and the Qing army was not close to seventy paces, and they were not allowed to fire, so behind the earththen carts, there was only an eerie silence. There were also earthen carts on both sides of the gate, and the bird soldiers behind them also turned the bird guns, and aimed at the white flag tartar soldiers who came over.

I saw those Qing soldiers, roaring and rushing down the mountain, they rushed closer and closer, and the fierce expressions were more and more clear, but the Ming soldiers behind the dirt cart still endured and did not move.

Yang Guozhu organized and trained the new army, because it was imitating the Shunxiang army, so the battle examples of the Shunxiang army in the past were all taken out and carefully analyzed.

What Yang Guozhu and the generals generally agree on is the perseverance and perseverance of the Shunxiang Army, and they are not allowed to fire without the order of the official. In this way, the power of the displacement, coupled with their excellent bird guns, is naturally invincible.

Yang Guozhu also attaches great importance to this point in his weekday training, and those who do not obey orders and act privately during the war, the first commander can behead the sergeant, the team officer can behead the captain, the general can behead the team officer, and the thousand general can behead the general.

Under his strict training, obeying orders has become an iron law generally observed by Yang Guozhu's new army.

Therefore, although the momentum of the Qing army rushing forward was extremely fierce, they still waited for the Qing army to approach, waiting for the general order of the commander of the department,

Several Han and Korean soldiers with three-eyed guns flashed their shields and opened their guns, and there was a sound of gunsmoke and crackling. Liu Yongzhong and the others knew that this was a fake gun of the Tartars, and they specially lured me to open the gun, so they ignored it. If you open your own guns at this time, the sword and shield soldiers of the Tartars behind will take the opportunity to rush up. …,

In the blink of an eye, those Qing troops carried a large amount of dust and rushed down from the mountains, and the Qing troops in front of them rushed through seventy steps.

"Shoot!"

The commander of the new army, who was on the defensive line of the walled gate there, roared loudly, and pointed at the war knife in his hand.

Behind the earthen carts there, there was still a short distance away, and the new army bird guns behind the earthen carts on both sides, nearly 100 excellent East Road bird guns, erupted into fierce flames. In the sound of explosions, many guns sprayed large puffs of gunpowder smoke at the rushing Qing army.

Among the charging enemy troops of Dabo, there were immediately more than a dozen bullets tumbling over, not to mention the Han army and Goryeo soldiers who lured the enemy with false guns. Even the Qing soldiers with white flags holding heavy shields behind them also shot out strands of blood mist from their bodies, staggering down the mountain and falling down.

The shield in their hands, that is, the iron shield, could not provide protection either, and was broken by the projectiles that hit them.

In the Battle of Julu that year, the old-style medicine of the Shunxiang army could not penetrate the iron shield of the Qing army unless it was within thirty or forty steps. However, this time is different from the past, the mighty medicine on the East Road can break through the heavy armor in a hundred steps, and these old skills of the Qing army are repeated, but they cannot achieve the effect of the year.

After only a few breaths, the sound of the platoon sounded again, and among the rushing Qing soldiers, more people were shot and fell.

Yang Guozhu's new army bird gunner, using the bird gun to pass the tactic, shot with a good shooter. A few rows of bird guns behind him handed the bird guns with the sub-medicine in their hands to the shooters, and then took the empty bird guns and urgently loaded the paper cartridge ammunition.

Although the speed at which they loaded their ammunition was far less swift than that of the Jingbian military birds, there were also many errors. But this kind of infantry impact, especially the several layers of bird guns at this time, all have sub-medicines in them, so they can keep the fire power flowing continuously.

The sound of the platoon was wave after wave, and the charging Qing army was constantly shot and overturned, and for a while, the sound of guns and screams continued.

Liu Yongzhong and other shooters snuggled behind the earthen cart, and they were so nervous that they shot at the rushing Qing soldiers, mechanical and numb. Liu Yongzhong also fired three bullets, hitting two rushing Qing troops. Although they held heavy shields, they did not work at all, which made Liu Yongzhong admire the strength of the Donglu Bird.

Looking at the screaming Tartar soldiers who kept falling, Liu Yongzhong was happy in his heart, and he screamed wildly in his heart: "Dad, mother, have you seen it?" Full warehouse has avenged you! ”

However, at this time, he was not allowed to think too much, and after ejaculating, he immediately handed the empty gun behind him with his left hand, and took a bird gun with a sub-medicine in his right hand. He sat firmly on the dirt cart, quickly aimed at a Tartar soldier who was covering his body with a shield, and listened to the general voice: "Shoot!" ”

Without thinking, Liu Yongzhong pulled the board machine, and with a bang, a puff of fire rose from the fire door, and then a large puff of smoke erupted from the gun. At the moment of lightning, Liu Yongzhong saw that several large holes had been cracked in the shield of the Qing army, and several blood mist rose behind the shield, but there were several bird guns, all aiming at this Qing soldier.

This round of platoon hit more Qing shieldmen, because they had already rushed within forty paces. However, by this time, their casualties were even heavier, and the elite shieldmen and heavy armor in front of them had almost been swept away.

Following behind the heavy armor, there were some Qing army archers, looking at the earthen carts in front of them submerged in the thick white smoke, their faces showed a blank look, is it useless to charge to the death?

These archers, taking advantage of the momentum, also shot several waves of arrows in front of them.

However, the first is that the white smoke is dense and the target cannot be seen clearly, the second is that the Ming army can shoot it if it wants to shoot under the cover of the earthen car, and the third is that the Ming army's gunners are all wearing cotton armor inlaid with iron leaves, even if the arrows fall on them, they can't give them greater damage. …,

These Ming troops are not the feared Jingbian army, their birds and combat power are so sharp, on the other hand, look at their own side......

Could it be that the powerful bow and arrows of the Great Qing Kingdom, which was once invincible in the world, are really useless?

Not to mention the complex and fearful psychology of these Qing army archers, while they were shooting arrows, they also had to be attacked by the Ming army gunners of the earthen carts in front of them and the earthcarts on both sides.

When the Qing army rushed into twenty steps, Liu Yongzhong and the others fired another volley, and all the sounds were drowned out in the roar of nearly a hundred birds.

At this time, the front end of the earthen cart was completely covered by the white smoke that erupted out. The pungent smell of gunsmoke mixed with the hot sun, as well as the smell of blood from time to time, was really choking.

In the thick smoke, Liu Yongzhong saw at least dozens of Tartar soldiers, covered in blood and rolling in front of them, and many people's intestines were beaten out, just howling in pain. Looking again, only the backs of some Tartar soldiers fled back in terror, and in just a dozen steps, they no longer had the courage to rush up again, they fled!

There was silence for a while, and then the Ming army behind the earththen cart shouted loudly.

Soon, the winding earthcart position in front of the walled wall also erupted into bursts of cheers. Perhaps they were infected by the cheering brothers, or perhaps the Tartar soldiers who attacked from elsewhere were also repelled by them.

In a short battle, the Ming army played against the Qing army's shield bow and arrow, and the bird gunners won a brilliant victory. The battle was a one-sided massacre, with many casualties among the enemy, but few casualties on one's own side, how could it not make the new army under Yang Guozhu cheer?

Quickly, these new army birds, their psychology, is changing to the old army!

Yang Guozhu stood on the Yuan Rong car, he was holding the clairvoyant mirror given by Wang Dou, and he saw the battle in front of him. Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes, he worked hard to train the new army, and finally succeeded, a strong army, in his own hands
