Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Just now there were many spears, and there were also firecrackers. Now, as the Qing army rushed forward, it was true that the firecrackers in front of the Ming army were all gathered together. Before adjusting the direction of standing, in a short period of time, they walked dozens of steps in front of the formation, and the number of them was less than a thousand, all of them were holding firecrackers, forming three thin rows of snakes in front of the formation. The horizontal array of words.

"Sure enough, it's the same old way."

Seeing this situation, Tan Tai also sneered: "The thin three-layer array can stop our army from sprinting... Oh, the Han army also uses firearms!"

This time, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, and they couldn't help complaining when they saw the Han army struggling forward under the artillery fire.

Kong Youde's army was one of the few in the Qing army that was almost purely equipped with firearms. He made his fortune by showing off his firearms skills, so he trained his soldiers mainly with firearms. After the defeat of the four Jiangbei towns, there were almost no decent enemies left. Kong Youde and others entered the pass with them and made a lot of military exploits. The Ministry gradually focused on cold weapons, instead of the pattern of firearms when they were outside the pass. [

At this time, although the Han army rushed forward reluctantly, it was completely different from the Jurchen soldiers.

When the Qing army broke the Ming army's formation, it was not like thousands of troops and horses galloping as the posterity imagined. Only when the strength and weakness of the formation were too obvious, with more attacks and fewer attacks, or when the Ming army was fleeing, would they break the formation? There is such a scene of vertical riding chasing and cutting.

In normal times, the Qing army did not rely on horse battles to break through the formation, but actual foot battles!

Even before Nurhachi's rebellion, the Jianzhou Jurchen's great reputation was not earned by riding and shooting... The foreign races outside the customs know how to ride and shoot, and all of them are proficient in it, so they can't scare people. The Jianzhou Jurchen is famous It is their ability to fight on foot, fighting in formation, and attacking with dignity, the Haixi Jurchen and other tribes rarely can live in the Jurchen's foot formation.

When fighting against the Ming army, bows and arrows are of course used. This is a powerful weapon to defeat the enemy, but the real solution to the battle and the final victory must be to fight in foot formation.

The formation of the Ming army is like the current Fushan. The front row is a few layers of thin gunners. The gunners are poor and poorly trained. When they see the infantry of the Qing army rushing over with heavy armor and holding spears and halberds Panicked and flustered, he released the extremely poor-quality firecrackers early on, with no aim and weak lethality. When the heavy armored infantry of the Qing army rushed over, they immediately killed the Ming army's firecrackers like chopping melons and vegetables, and then broke the Kaiming army. With the army's weak gun array, the only thing left is to mount a horse and pursue it, and keep reaping lives.

But they were Jurchen soldiers. Nine out of ten of the Han soldiers in front of them were also carrying firecrackers, and they didn't have many knives or guns. Compared with those Jurchen men who are good at wielding spears and halberds and wearing triple armor stomachs, how brave and unstoppable they are when they break the formation?

That is absolutely impossible!

"Forget it." Tan Tai stayed for a long time, and finally said: "Look at the soldiers, horses and marksmanship practiced by King Gongshun, the number is about the same, as long as they break up the opponent's gunners and can directly hit the spearmen, we will fight." Also went up with the Mongols."

"Yes!"
