Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The battlefield was changing rapidly. After seeing Dorgon sending out the cart formation, Lu Haoshan immediately made changes and sent Gesang to lead 3,000 cavalry to attack. The Tibetan people are nomadic people. They grew up on horses since they were young. They are extremely skilled in riding.  Swinging the sword and shooting arrows on his back was a part of his life.  ¡ð The Sichuan Army is now dominated by firearms. Even when Pu Bu came with 30,000 elite soldiers, he never had a chance to perform. It felt like doing coolies and underhands. Those Tibetan soldiers thought that Lu Haoshan wanted to use them as cannon fodder, but they were rarely dispatched.  They were all treated as idlers. They were all holding back so much that they finally had an opportunity to perform. No matter how hard they were willing to miss it, they rushed into the enemy group like tigers descending from the mountain.  Gesang took the lead and rode straight towards the enemy group. A Qingming man saw Gesang rushing towards him. He reacted quickly. He immediately drew his bow and shot an arrow at Gesang. It was said that it was too late and that it was so fast that he saw Gesang.  Suddenly lying on the horse's back, he flipped the scimitar blade with his right hand, and the black horse rushed past the Qing soldier like wind. The moment the two met, a head shot into the sky.  With just one meeting, Gesang solved the Qing soldier. The whole process was as smooth as flowing water. Not only Pubu nodded secretly, but Lu Haoshan also praised him when he saw it.  As soon as the Fan soldiers attacked, in front of this elite infantry, the soldiers pushing the carts were killed like lambs. Those vehicles were easily damaged by scimitars, and some large and sturdy carts were blown up by placing a grenade directly on them.  , in just a moment, the battlefield was already in a mess, and the Sichuan army took back the initiative in the blink of an eye.  "Come for me and entangle them." Dorgon saw that his cart array was damaged, and immediately ordered the first reserve team to quickly provide support.  The first reserve team was General Xia Guoxiang under Wu Sangui. Hearing this, he immediately shouted "charge" and led his men to rush out like an arrow from a string, preparing to compete with the Sichuan cavalry and meet the massacred Qing soldiers.  "Charge" "Kill!" Xia Guoxiang is also a general with both civil and military skills and is well versed in war.  The level of military command is also relatively high. With an order, the subordinates line up in an arrow-shaped formation and rush forward, one by one trying their best to destroy the horses. They know that the faster they rush into the enemy's position, the better. The Sichuan Army's firearms are not a vegetarian.  As a general, Xia Guoxiang's military talent is recognized by everyone. His talent is high, but his luck is bad. He was in the first echelon in the draw last night.  To reach the first echelon, meritorious service is to get ahead, but death is also to die first. Especially when encountering a team like the Sichuan Army, getting such a lottery is simply a bad luck, but Xia Guoxiang has no choice.  "Sir, the Qing army has been dispatched." As soon as Tang Qiang saw Xia Xiangguo charging, he immediately reported it.  "Who is leading the team?" "Xia Guoxiang." Lu Haoshan stepped on the city wall with cement under his feet, and said confidently: "So much manpower and material resources have been spent. Just to kill the enemy, climb high to see far, and you can also take aim when climbing high.  Stay away, fight me. Don't let Yiqi get close." "Yes, sir." Tang Qiang said to himself, "Luo Yapo asked you to run away. Let's see where you go this time."  With the help of nine cattle and two tigers, Wujiawan was forcibly surrounded with sentries and walls.  It has become a suburban city, with Wujiawan backed by Dingjun Mountain and mountains on both sides.  In this way, only the east side is suitable for attack and defense. If you stand on a high place and fire cannons, you will not be afraid of being blocked by the fighting soldiers.  "Bang bang" "Bang bang bang" "Boom" As soon as Xia Guoxiang's troops entered the range of the muskets and artillery, they were first subjected to a round of shelling, and then the shot  The fire blunderbuss with the rod opened fire. The iron bullets used by the new fire system were fired by firing pins. The shooting speed was fast and the aim was accurate. In the sound of gunfire, people kept being shot and fell from their horses. All the generals of the Xia Kingdom also fell.  Remarkably, each one of them was either lying on the horse's back or leaning against the horse's belly, avoiding bullets without affecting their speed. It was obvious that he was leading experienced battlefield veterans.  "If you shoot the man, shoot the horse first, and aim at the horse." Tang Qiang immediately ordered.  To capture thieves, capture the king first, and to shoot people first, shoot horses. Horses are larger and easier to hit. After moving the target, the horses screamed and fell to the ground. The carts of Tibetan soldiers and Qing soldiers were about a hundred steps away from the city wall.  There was a fierce battle, and Xia Guoxiang's cavalry was strongly sniped by the Sichuan Army's artillery team at a distance of about 200 steps. No matter how hard Xia Guoxiang tried, he could not overtake him. Seeing that the enemy was only a hundred steps away, he could overtake him with just a few breaths on horseback.  In the past, I just couldn't break through.  The Sichuan Army used impeccable facts to prove that it occupies an absolute dominant position in the output of firepower. The firecrackers seemed to be woven into an invisible wall, creating an invisible wall for the Tibetan soldiers who slaughtered the Qing army under the city wall.  Without a protective net, Xia Guoxiang and others could only watch helplessly as the Fan soldiers killed all the people, destroyed all the siege equipment, and returned to Wujiawan in a gust of wind. ?When Dorgon saw that the situation was not right and asked for the gold, seventy-eight out of ten of the cavalrymen had been killed or injured. Prime Minister Xia followed behind to supervise the battle. There were also personal guards who risked their lives to save him. He was shot in the right shoulder and his sleeves were stained with blood.  It's red, but it's not life-threatening.  Dorgon personally helped Prime Minister Xia off his horse, expressed appreciation for his bravery, and announced a reward for the soldiers. Then the group of shocked soldiers retreated to rest, and now they could not form combat effectiveness.  "This firepower is too strong." Wu Sangui said helplessly.  Azig said with some reluctance: "Fourteenth Brother, why don't you let me lead the troops to charge? The wall of Ningyuan City is so high and thick, why don't we all capture it? This small Wujiawan, I will  Take it down with a single charge. "When it comes to attacking cities and plundering territory, the Manchus and Qing Dynasties are really not afraid. I remember that Ningyuan and Jinzhou were so impregnable back then, but the Manchu and Qing Eight Banners still launched attacks against them again and again, defeating the Ming army.  Huang Taiji personally participated in the attack on Ningyuan and was seriously injured and died. From this, we can see the aggressiveness of the Manchus.  When Ma Guangyuan saw that Dorgon was silent, he knew that he was unwilling to push his brother to be cannon fodder so early. Hearing this, he took the initiative to ask for help and said: "Your Majesty, the morale of the Sichuan army is strong now, and it is not conducive for us to wait for them to stick to one direction.  Instead of attacking from the side, let¡¯s attack with three prongs and see how the Sichuan army responds.¡± After that, he took the initiative to ask Ying: ¡°The last general is not talented, so I¡¯ll be the vanguard. Please help me.¡± Ma Guangyuan is the only Shuanggu Shan¡¯e Zhen.  , the Han Zhenghuang Banner and the Han Xianghuang Banner were both under his control, and his troops were close to 50,000. He was a powerful faction. Dorgon expressed appreciation for his initiative to ask for military service, and said happily: "If there is a general on horseback, it is natural to take action."  The horse has succeeded, but there are high mountains on both sides, and many outposts have been built on the mountains. General Ma needs to be more careful." "General, take the order," Ma Guangyuan said respectfully.  Being able to serve as the leader of both banners is an honor and a responsibility. Ma Guangyuan knew that his power came from the Manchu nobles, so he was extremely loyal to them and often stood up to solve problems for the Manchu nobles. This is what happened.  Due to his carefulness, he gained higher trust and power than others. There was a saying spread among the Manchu aristocratic circles: Wen has Fan Wencheng, and military has Ma Guangyuan.  If brothers Duduo and Azig are Dorgon¡¯s right-hand men, then Fan Wencheng and Ma Guangyuan are Dorgon¡¯s right-hand men.  Of course, Wu Sangui is also very capable, but Wu Sangui is too ambitious and difficult to control. On the contrary, the loyal Ma Guangyuan takes advantage of him.  After regaining their strength, Dorgon gave an order. Soon, the Qing army divided into three groups. One group still pushed the cart to cover the attack, while the other two groups went straight into the flanks, preparing to remove the outposts on both wings to cooperate with the attack.  Compared with the first two attacks, the third frontal attack made some changes. That is, after reaching the attack range of firecrackers and longbows, the Qing army stopped advancing, braved the fierce artillery fire of the Sichuan army to fight back, and also dispatched Hongyi troops.  Cannons, as soon as the three Hongyi cannons appeared, the Sichuan army, as if facing a formidable enemy, dispatched general artillery to fight back, trying to destroy the three Hongyi cannons.  In front of Wujiawan, artillery roared for a while, and a new round of firearms exchange began. When it came to artillery, the Qing army was naturally not as good as the Sichuan army, which had an absolute lead. It was lagging behind from the beginning, and now it is just  In order to attract firepower, we can only grit our teeth and resist.  The frontal attack was frustrated again, and the flank attack was not smooth either. Ma Guangyuan led his men to attack the Sichuan army's flank. Unexpectedly, the road up the mountain was full of traps, and explosions would suddenly sound. From time to time, soldiers were shot by arrows or accidentally  The grenade was detonated, causing little casualties but greatly damaging morale. Ma Guangyuan was unable to dismount, gritting his teeth and letting his soldiers continue to advance.  Posts built with iron bars, masonry, and cement are naturally not easy to mess with. They are easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are artillery, muskets in the distance, and grenades nearby. Lu Haoshan built a total of six strong posts on both sides of the flanks, and three companies.  They formed a row to take care of each other. The two Hanhuang Banner soldiers were seriously injured, but Ma Guangyuan also gave up. He wanted to capture the flank and threaten Wujiawan. He personally killed two Niu Lu who were not fighting well, and personally led the attack and prepared  Use the human wave tactic to win, so that you can look good in front of the Manchu nobles.  The battle was extremely stalemate, with mountains of corpses and rivers of blood flowing in front of each outpost. However, Ma Guangyuan would rather die than retreat. In a rage, he took part in the attack with his personal guards, and attacked the outpost in one fell swoop, using all his strength to hit the wood.  Bash the doors of the outposts and insert some improvised bombs through the firing holes into the outposts.  Seeing victory in sight and about to take the flank, the Sichuan army on Dingjun Mountain finally made some movement.  "Boomboom" There was a huge explosion next to the outpost. It turned out that the new general cannon on Dingjun Mountain opened fire. The explosives exploded next to the outpost, and the Sichuan troops hiding inside suffered no damage.  , the Qing army besieging the outpost was about toIt was blown to pieces, and no one expected that Dingjunshan would fire at this time, and the location of the bombardment was so coincidental: it would not seriously damage the post, and it would also carry out a blanket attack on the Qing troops surrounding the post.  Explosion(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
