Seeing the blood red blooming on the snow-white ice surface, the young Boro gasped heavily, Dudu tapped his shoulder with a horse whip: "Stay calm and don't be hit by the enemy's aggressive method."

"I will break the formation later, I will definitely cut off that man's head with my own hands." Boluo pointed at Li Mingxun standing on his horse and said loudly.

Li Mingxun glanced at the enemy array and heard Ba Hai say, "Your move doesn't work, they won't be provoked."

Li Mingxun smiled and said, "Then I can only find someone to persuade you. Artillery, you are loud, please persuade the Donglu to come and die!"

The artillery captain smiled and said, "Look, I will definitely let them come and die."

There are three four-pound cannons on the mound. These four-pound copper cannons are no different from those used on the notice ship. They only use new gun cars. Now the distance between the two sides is less than 200 meters, which is the best distance for the four-pound cannon to perform.

Du Du rode on the horse and loudly urged the soldiers to form a formation. Suddenly, three groups of white smoke rose from the opposite position. Then, the rumbling sound of cannons came. He leaned down instinctively, but when he raised his head, there was already a mess around. The right arm and half of the white-armored soldiers beside him were gone. The blood shot in the thrusts made Du Du's face, and the head of a war horse was blown up, and the flesh and blood sputtered on the ground.

"Prince Anping, get off the horse quickly and leave this high slope. They are firing at our big ball." Boro ran over and pulled Dudu off his horse. He wanted to run under the dirt slope. He heard a whimpering sound from his head. A black ball flew over his head and hit the pine tree in the distance. The leaves and snow on the tree fell, and half of the canopy fell, revealing a half-pale broken stubble. Dudu's face changed instantly. Seeing the tree as the thickness of his thighs was directly broken by a gun, he murmured: "Don't the enemy only have small cannons? How could it have such great power!"

The people around him did not speak, but there was a riot in the array not far away. Several people with broken hands and feet were pulled down and lay on the ground and wailed.

"It won't work if you keep going like this. Let the enemy bombard us, and we'll be done." Dudu shouted loudly. He looked at Boro and said, "I will order the attack immediately. You will take three hundred cavalry to wait for an opportunity to move. When the armored soldiers open the gap in the enemy's front, you will attack immediately."

With Du Du's order issued, some white-armored soldiers and infantry rushed down the river bank. The soldiers quickly gathered and lined up to attack the enemy's front. The soldiers without armor hung arrows and carried their stair bows, and moved forward in sparse lines.

Boom boom!

The artillery bombardment appeared again after a brief pause. This time, the four-pound cannon was loaded with double shotguns. After a bombardment, the shotgun swept across the array of armored soldiers on the ice like a storm, directly knocking down a large area of ​​people to the ground. More than 30 people were killed or injured in a moment. Jiala Zhangjing, who was commanding the attack, changed his face. He looked at the flesh and blood on the ground and shouted loudly: "Arrowers come forward, shoot light arrows!"

Hundreds of archers were already moving forward. After receiving the order, they quickly stepped forward and stopped a hundred meters away from the shore. Based on the decades of experience of the Qing army in fighting against the Ming army, at this distance, three-eyed guns and other firearms had no lethality, and bird guns could not be accurately shot. They could use light arrows to shoot archery rain and injure those beggars who did not have many armor.

The tricks to deal with the Ming army are not too strong to deal with the club. At least the army in front of us are not only stricter and different military flags, but similar to the Ming army. This is no wonder Du Du couldn't see clearly. Although the club's armor is very popular and even worse, they were wearing cotton armor, in this cold winter, many soldiers wore heavy six-pound cotton jackets, and the wide cotton jackets covered most of their bodies. The fabrics were mostly spliced, and the more they looked, they looked like beggars.

"Enemy artillery position, volley!" Jiala Zhangjing of Zhenghongqi shouted again.

Archers retreated one after another, skillfully pulled out a sharp light arrow from the arrow insertion, and the tail of the arrow was sandwiched at the tiger's mouth. The right hand with the antlers and fingers pressed the ring, and the index finger and middle fingers pressed the ring, and the left hand raised. The sharp arrow pierced the hazy sky. With the creaking sound, the bowstring was pulled apart bit by bit, and the composite bow of the long-slit bow kept ringing.

"shoot!"

With a command, the buzzing sound of the bow string vibrated, and the birch arrow shaft was pushed out by the accumulated power of the bow body, twisting like a serpent in the air, quickly becoming straight. The tail feather balanced the tremor of the arrow. After flying smoothly for a distance, it cut through the air, making a sharp roar, and landed with a roar!

Bang bang bang bang!

The four-pound cannon was another volley. After the shotgun flew over, it only knocked down seven or eight people in the messy archer array, but the rain of arrows had already fallen. The cannon groaned, took a punch on his shoulder, and inserted it into his thick coat. He pulled it out and looked at it, and it was three points into the flesh!

There were wailing around, and five or six gunmen fell down. Seeing the opposite side attracting bows and arrows again, the cannon leader ordered: "Retreat, remove the mound!"

This is one of the tactics of the Qing army. They would use light arrows to shoot or firearms at a long distance to make the Ming army open fire. Then the archers approached and shot the Ming army with the long bow and heavy arrows unique to the Qing army's archers. Then the charge of the armored soldiers. After the three axes were swung, the Ming army collapsed. In fact, many Ming army could not hold on with the second axe.

The Qing army used the same tactics to deal with the society was not because of information blockage. In fact, after two years of mutual testing, the Qing army already knew that this sudden opponent had a large number of excellent firearms, but the army in front of them was really similar to the Ming army they had seen, with the same beggar style.

It’s not that Li Mingxun doesn’t pay attention to military appearance. It’s really a bitter and cold place. There’s no way to do it. Ming soldiers fighting in the north often wear cotton armor. At worst, the clothes inside are thicker. But this is a place where water drips into ice. Clothes inside the cotton armor will be frozen to death. The soldiers of the club like the most is the six-kilogram cotton jacket bought from Jiangnan. It’s wide and thick, and the warmest. Even if they wear cotton clothes, leather jackets and cotton armor, they can still wear torn cotton jackets. However, the cotton jackets are really worn, and many of them are covered with patches and look very sloppy.

However, he was unwilling to do so, but his body was honest. Li Mingxun, who went to fight, had long thrown away the bear fur coat he wore when he came to Ningguta and also wore a six-pound cotton coat. The entire army looked like beggars.

"The Donglu is stupid enough, shoot against us?" Wu Mu's mocking voice came. Li Mingxun looked at the group of Qing archers who had driven away the artillery two rounds of shooting, and did not continue to move forward, nor did they replace heavy arrows, but continued to shoot with light arrows, but the target was replaced with the infantry's horizontal formation.

A rain of arrows shot up, but it was like a weed planted on the horizontal formation. The infantry in the club wore iron helmets, and could block the face with a slight bow. The thick cotton jacket itself had defensive power, and she was wearing cotton armor and even putting mail under her. The light arrows of a hundred meters of light caused seven or eight casualties. Li Mingxun saw with his own eyes a small team leader pulling out three or four arrows stuck on his body like he was picking vegetables, and threw them aside as if nothing had happened.

"The contrailer came forward and let the group of savages see what the long-range firepower of infantry is." Li Mingxun whipped the whip in his hand twice and said.

The club has mastered the technology of making coercine guns in the ordnance factory of the base camp and is conducting small-scale production. However, the army mainly assembled from seized and purchased coercine guns, which are only improved by replacing iron push rods, equipped with fixed ammunition, assembling bayonets, etc.

At present, there are two types of mesh guns in the company's hands. The mesh gun produced in the Goa Arsenal purchased from the British is a variant of the European Sur mesh gun. It is considered to be a Swedish style mesh gun. In fact, it was invented by the Germans. Because it was adopted on a large scale by Gustav II's army, it was once thought to be Swedish style. The biggest advantage of this type of mesh gun is that it is lightweight, so the bracket can be fired. However, with the wave of military expansion, the firearms of the community are not enough. Whether purchased from outside or produced by itself, the mesh guns are given priority to the new military camp of the base camp. Relatively speaking, Yongning City has obtained less resources.

Fortunately, Song Laoqi is also a veteran of the community. During his operation, he assembled all the heavy-duty coercion guns of the community to Yongning City. These heavy-duty coercion guns are Spanish Mushket meshes and their variants. This kind of coercion gun has a history of more than a hundred years. Even when light coercion guns are popular today, there are still a considerable number of coercion guns mixed in the European square formation, and overseas colonies prefer this type of heavy-duty coercion gun.

The Mushket melee gun weighs nearly ten kilograms and must be used to effectively aim. The caliber reaches about twenty mm and the lead bullet weighs 60 grams. Although like other melee guns, it is not accurate enough to exceed fifty meters, but the range is long and lethal. It is precisely the existence of this kind of melee gun that allowed European knights to increase the thickness of their breastplate from three millimeters to five millimeters and seven millimeters, and finally eliminated the medieval army of the knight. Since the heavy breastplate of the knight can be broken, there is no armor that can defend. This is also the reason why the Yongning Garrison Battalion uses heavy clamps, which is tailor-made for the Qing army with heavy armor as the core!

As the order was conveyed, the garrison battalion's melee took a few steps forward, and pulled apart about one meter from each other (to prevent the fuse of the comrades beside him from igniting various types of gunpowder on his body). The bracket was simply inserted into the ground and began to load the medicine. In order to simplify the steps of the Mushket melee gunpowder of up to 42 steps, the club also equipped them with fixed-packed gunpowder. Soon, the soldiers loaded them.

The heavy convex gun was placed on the U-shaped bracket. With a command, two hundred and fifty heavy convex guns were fired on the nearly four hundred meters long line. There was inevitably a convex gun not firing in the cold wind, but more than two hundred thumb-sized lead bullets were still shot out. The lead bullet made a sharp roar, and it crossed a hundred meters and shot on the archer's body, easily tearing the archer's cotton armor or chain mail. The soft lead bullet was suddenly hindered and began to deform and disintegrate, forming a huge cavity in the evil body of Donglu. The bones were shattered and flesh was stirred. With a bang, it turned into a fog of blood and blood behind it.

A bloody red suddenly burst out from the snow-white ice surface. At least forty people were hit. Donglu, who was hit and driven away, fell to the ground. After a few twitches, there was no breath. However, the bones exposed to the air that were hit by the arms, legs and feet were a little scary. The heads hit were even more shattered like watermelons, with red flesh, white brains, and colorful intestines and stomachs all over the floor.

The archers were so scared that they screamed, but the second batch of convex gunmen had already emerged, putting up their support, and another round of volleys, and another casualty.

Boom boom boom boom!

The light four-pound cannon was pushed to the shore by the gunners and slaves, and the steel rainstorm was gushing out, and then retreated. The lead shot swept across the ice and hit the Donglu's front. After a few rounds, the Donglu could no longer form a complete volley. What's more, Du Du, as the commander, could not accept such casualties.

You should know that among the soldiers, many Eight Banners, even many Eight Banners, are important forces in guarding Ningguta. This is not a battlefield in Liaodong where there are 100,000 or 80,000 people. Death of one person here is a huge loss. Death of three or five hundred people can be related to victory or defeat.

"Order the archers to rush forward, shoot with heavy arrows, and the armored soldiers follow, break through the enemy's formation, and break through the enemy in one go!" Du Du shouted on a horse.

The rumbling drum sounded, and the white-armored soldiers stepped forward to urge the archers to attack. Several scared guys connected with the retreating people and were directly chopped off their heads. The remaining archers ran forward quickly, stopped at about forty meters to shoot heavy arrows.

The heavy arrows of the Donglu were more like small spear throwing. These bows and arrows were derived from the hunting bows of the Donglu. They were not Mongolians who were hunting yellow sheep and deer on horseback. The Donglu, who was born in the white mountains and black water, had to face ferocious animals such as wild boars, tigers, and bears in the dense forest. If one arrow could not seriously damage the prey, they might die.

When the Ming army faced heavy arrows from the Eastern Barbarians, they often killed one arrow, which could easily cause great chaos.

Faced with the charge of Donglu, the shooting effect of the mezzanine gunmen was greatly reduced, and the approaching of the enemy also slowed down the loading speed. As Donglu approached, their bows and arrows could shoot directly into the soldiers' faces. Consecutive and convex gunmen fell to the ground one after another, and casualties were rapidly expanding.

The commander of the garrison battalion retained a round of volleys. After the rear row was loaded, two rounds of volleys were fired one after another, causing huge casualties to the approaching white-armored soldiers. After pulling up the comrades on the ground, they pulled up their comrades on the ground to retreat. The spearmen, who had watched a long time behind, stepped forward. The spearmen were densely arranged, and the spears were like forests, pressed directly on the embankment. However, the Donglu armored soldiers were always brave, wearing heavy armor, iron helmets, holding big swords and spears, rushed up, taking advantage of the momentum to roll onto the shore, blocking the spears, and then drilled into the array to kill. Several gaps appeared on the not-wide defense line, and the originally straight spear array was also twisted.

Li Mingxun saw it and said in his heart: "After all, he is a veteran who has accumulated over the years. He is really tough and arduous."

The spearmen in the garrison camp were mostly composed of Sauron and Qilie charming, and they were also brave. They were well-equipped, but they did not have the rich experience of the Donglu Baijia. They were actually forced to retreat step by step. Seeing the defense line on the embankment constantly retreating, a cavalry came on horseback. Before he could say anything, Li Mingxun guessed the purpose of the coming and shouted: "Go back and tell Bahai that if he dared to rush down the embankment without my order, I would cut off his head with his own hands."

The cavalry returned to the formation without saying a word. Wumu said, "Master, I'm almost unable to stop it. I'll take the guards to fill it up."

Li Mingxun shook his head: "Send an order to Bahai, let the jumping team go down the embankment and attack the Donglu!"
Chapter completed!
