Chapter 2139 The use of the flintlock gun

Aixinjueluo, Daishan's good son and heir to the Qing Emperor Amma, controlled the horse carefully and trotted forward.

He didn't dare to run too fast, because there might be a horse trap on the ground in front of him, and if he fell in, he might end up with a bloody head.

In addition, he also had to look ahead. If a large group of Ming army elites were ambushed ahead and all the eighty Baya soldiers who were leading the battle were wiped out in one go, then he would not dare to go forward and die. Fu.

Ning's Ama should be treated as such, but she can't let her good life go to waste.

The battle ahead seemed to be very fierce, with shouts of killing, the clash of weapons, the roar of gunpowder, and the screams of injured men and horses coming all at once.

The fighting is fierce, which shows that there is still more to fight!

Mandahai loosened the reins slightly, let go of the horse and ran forward. His horse was not as splendid as the fine Spanish horse Daishan rode, but it was also rare and good among the Manchurian army.

The horse was running very fast now with its hooves spread wide. Its bowl-sized hooves dug up pieces of soil on the soft flat land by the seaside. Soon it carried Manda Haidang and approached the battle group that was already fighting in front!

The defense of the Ming army was much weaker than Mandahai imagined. Then under the moonlight and firelight, Mandahai discovered that there were not many defenders at the breach made by dozens of white-armored soldiers. And the Ming soldiers guarding there were

The army was probably not an elite one, otherwise it would not have been disrupted by a fierce attack by a small number of white-armored soldiers. Now there is not even an array, just a group of people fighting in a melee.

However, Mandahai observed carefully again, and his heart became suspicious again. The melee combat ability of the Ming army, which at first glance did not look very elite, was actually quite strong! Moreover, everyone had armor, and was equipped with iron whips, iron slips, etc.

They were equipped with blunt weapons and strong shields. Finally, their morale was also very high and they were not afraid of the white-armored soldiers at all. Although they had the upper hand in the scene, it was not ugly.

The abilities of those Manchurian white armors were no more than this, and they could not take down the Ming army infantry, which was several times more numerous than them.

I saw only white-armored soldiers wielding axes and Ming soldiers wielding iron whips and iron slips, beating each other there, but not many were beaten to the ground.

According to this style of play, even if these Manchurian white-armored soldiers win in the end, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and those who have no casualties will also be very tired...

Seeing this scene, Mandahai was a little hesitant. The fighting power of the Ming army in front of him was really not weak... Of course, the slave thieves of Mandahai's generation only listened to adults bragging when they were children.

When they were young, they learned that there was a Ming army with very weak combat effectiveness. Anyway, they had never seen it when they grew up.

Whether they were in North Korea or in western Liaoning and eastern Liaoning, they encountered very tough Ming troops. Sometimes Man Dahai suspected that those deeds of cutting down Ming troops like melons and vegetables were caused by his unreliable Ama editor.

Out to deceive children!

So the performance of the Ming army in front of me is normal...

In addition, the number of Ming troops near this breach was a bit strange. Except for those who were fighting with the white-armored soldiers, Mandahai only saw a sparse circle of spearmen forming an arc, barely blocking it.

There was a breach. Even further away, it was so dark that he couldn't see clearly.

Man Dahai already knew about the Japanese attack on Lushunkou... If the Japanese succeeded, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty should have reported to the army as early as yesterday evening!

Perhaps the main force of the Ming army has retreated, and the military formation here is simply fake.

When he thought of this, Man Dahai's heart became hot - if this were the case, although he had no chance to kill Zhu Youjian, he would be able to secure a victory. And the national destiny of the Qing Dynasty could at least be improved.

It will continue for another few decades.

He, Man Dahai, is only 21 years old this year. He has only just debuted for a few years and has not yet reaped enough benefits!

If the Qing Dynasty perished before his eyes, what would he do next?

As soon as he thought of this, he made up his mind and shouted: "The surprise attack has been successful, brothers, charge with me!"

After roaring, Mandahai fell off his horse, holding an ax in one hand and a shield in the other, and rushed forward slowly - not too quickly! His third brother Saharin sent troops six years ago

North Korea went to attack "Li Datou", but because he charged too hard, he was shot by Li Datou's black gun soldiers...

Under his leadership, more than 700 Manchurian white-armored soldiers also dismounted and charged upwards with howls!

This was a tenfold increase in troops, and the Ming army in front could not withstand it immediately! However, they did not disperse in a hurry, and still maintained good order. First, the pikemen who were "watching" on the side charged and killed a wave of

, covering the retreat of the firecrackers who were in a group with the white-armored soldiers (these people were actually firecrackers equipped with lath armor, iron whips, and iron slips), and then threw a round of grenades, exploding several

Ten fireballs.

But no matter what, the gap in the Ming army's front was widened even more when Manda Hai "took the lead" and led the attack with white-armored soldiers.

But they still didn't collapse!

Instead, they formed a larger arc-shaped defense line and continued to work hard to resist the penetration of the Qing army's white-armored soldiers. The soldiers on both sides used shields, axes, iron whips, and iron slips to attack each other on both sides of this arc-shaped defense line.

Beat or stab with a spear.

Both sides are "full armor". The Manchu white armor soldiers have a layer of cotton armor, a layer of chain mail, and a layer of lining armor at the innermost layer. The Ming army has a layer of lath armor and a layer of lining armor.

At first glance, it seems that the white-armored soldiers have more armor, but the defensive effect is similar, while the Ming army's armor is lighter, which is beneficial to maintaining the physical strength of the soldiers. But the Manchus who can choose the white-armored soldiers have a lot of strength, and they know

How to maintain physical strength on the battlefield, so I won't be tired for a while. So the advantage is still on the side of the Qing army... It's just that this advantage is a bit small, and it just makes the "arc breach" a lot wider

.

"Boom boom boom..."

While the two sides were engaged in a fierce battle around the "arc breach", the sound of a 3-pound cannon was fired.

The three-proximity artillery fire was not aimed at the Qing army at the arc-shaped breach, but at the 8,000 cavalry troops of Daizensho and the 10,000 Japanese troops of Masayuki Hoshina who were arrayed in the open space to the north of the arc-shaped breach.

.

Of course, it is not accurate to fire in the dark, but it still reminds Daishan and Masayuki Hoshina that there is no need to fight at one point, the Ming army has a long front!

So Daishan discussed with Hoshina, and he himself commanded 8,000 cavalry troops to continue to attack the breach, while Hoshina Masayuki commanded 10,000 Japanese soldiers to attack the Ming army artillery position and its surroundings - not many 3-pound cannons were fired.

door, so Daishan and Baoke also judged that the main force of the Ming army might have withdrawn.

Hoshina Masayuki immediately took his more than 10,000 men, divided them into 10 square formations of 1,000 men, and slowly pressed forward towards the right wing of the Ming army.

"Long live my lord...it seems the Japanese soldiers are pressing on our right wing!"

Behind the arc-shaped breach, Hei Wentao received the military report sent by a staff officer, looked at it with the help of an oil lamp, and then said to Zhu Youjian: "There are at least several thousand people, all infantry!"

Zhu Youjian snorted: "Japanese infantry, Manchu cavalry... they cooperate very well!" As he spoke, Zhu Youjian stood up, "Give me armor... let me

In front of the tent, the 7th and 8th Cavalry Regiments carry flintlock rifles and attack with me! I also order the artillery battalion to send 6 3-pound cannons to me!"

"Your Majesty," Hei Wentao was startled by Zhu Youjian's words, "You are a man of wealth... Why don't you let me go for you?"

Zhu Youjian smiled: "You can't replace me... Do you know how to use a flintlock gun?"

"I know," Hei Wentao replied, "Your Majesty taught me step by step."

Zhu Youjian laughed and said: "Then you leave this place to Wu Sangui and go with me...see with your own eyes how I can defeat thousands of Japanese soldiers with 2,000 flintlock rifles!"

Hei Wentao was still a little worried, "Long live my Lord, why not deploy two more regiments of cavalry..."
