Chapter 121
Naturally, Huang Taiji refused to give up this opportunity to capture the Ming emperor Zhu Youxiao alive, but he was not Daishan, and he had a high military quality and did not despise him because he was facing the Ming army for the first time. Therefore, He did not launch an attack hastily, but also ordered to set up camp, and sent a small group of troops to harass, in order to prove the strength of the Ming army's weapons.

Zhu Youxiao did not relax because he repelled Daishan's troops. After learning that Daishan had retreated and that the main forces of the Eight Banners including Huang Taiji had arrived, he immediately summoned the battalion commanders to summarize the encounter just now. , and the commanders of the battalions are now more confident, and they are even more elated when talking about how to deal with more Tartars.

"When the artillery fire is extended, it is absolutely possible to bring the Tartars closer to fight again. In addition, it is not necessary to put the artillery on one line. It is best to set it in an arc to form a cross-fire network. The second battalion and the third battalion of the infantry battalion Remember to shoot again after the first battalion has finished shooting to form a continuous attack on the Tartars. The cavalry battalion does not have to fight hard with the Tartars. Learn to lure the Tartars to our fire range, and then let the infantry battalion deal with them. Annihilation!"

Zhu Youxiao instructed the commanders in great detail, and at the same time asked Tang Fusheng, who was in charge of intelligence collection and military discipline enforcement: "What is the status of the divisions of the Qin Kings in various places, and what is the position of Lu Xiangsheng, the left servant of the Ministry of War and governor of Jiliao?"

Tang Fusheng was good at summing up a continuous and important short sentence from fragmentary information. Now when Zhu Youxiao asked, he quickly spread out a map, picked up a slightly sharp stone on the spot, and headed for Tongzhou Location point:
"Lu Shilang ordered Huang Degong to stay in Jizhou and rushed to Tongzhou, and immediately declared martial law after he rushed to Tongzhou. Countless large merchant ships in Tongzhou city relying on dignitaries and nobles were directly intercepted by him, and a lot of food was also used by the Ministry of War. The reason for the unconditional requisition is directly transferred as military rations."

"In addition, as soon as Lu Shilang arrived in Tongzhou, he beheaded more than ten civil and military officials who had fled because of abandoning the city. The nuisance was arrested by Lu Shilang and went to Tongzhou City to beat [-] boards, and he still can't get out of bed. Because of this, the news of Gyeonggi being robbed by the Tartars has decreased a lot. Of course, the news of officers and soldiers disturbing the people has also decreased. many."

"However, the bureaucrats and gentry in Tongzhou City complained about Lu Shilang, and some threatened to write a lawsuit against the imperial court. Unexpectedly, the time has come for your majesty to let him govern the military affairs of the provinces, and now Lu Shilang will be even more concerned. The reason is to requisition merchants’ grain and goods for military use, and at this time, Amin’s department also suddenly appeared under Tongzhou City, but because Lu Shilang defended in time, Amin’s department had nothing to gain.”

"And now Lu Shilang has ordered Cao Wenzhao, the commander-in-chief of Datong, to march to Changping with 1 people. Zhou Yuji, the commander-in-chief of Taiyuan, has personally led 8000 people to Bao'an. Gui has also taken away [-] fine horsemen, mainly Mongols, and rushed to the capital, and now it is estimated that they will soon enter the border of Jizhou."

"The Ming army has a total of more than [-]. You said that if Huang Taiji escaped, how would he escape?"

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile, and ordered: "Send someone to pass orders to Lu Xiangsheng, so that he can safely and boldly dispatch troops and dispatch generals. If someone dares to disobey orders because of his meritorious status, he will take it directly. There is no need to report it." , if someone really pursues it at that time, I will take care of it myself, and in addition, tell the cabinet that no matter what the officials say about Lu Xiangsheng, they will not say anything."

As he said that, the sound of the horn came from outside, and the thick and chilling sound of the horn made people feel a chill in their hearts.

This was the sound of the Tatars wanting to attack. According to Huang Taiji's tactical concept, let the Han cavalry take the lead first, that is, Li Yongfang's cavalry attacked first to attract the firepower of the Ming army, but before that it was Tong Yangxing's artillery battalion that attacked first.

After Tong Yangxing surrendered to Nurhachi, he became Houjin's concubine and was in charge of Houjin's artillery battalion. At this time, Huang Taiji also followed Zhu Youxiao to attack with artillery at the beginning of the war. However, Huang Taiji's purpose Instead, artillery was used to destroy Zhu Youxiao's base in the forest first.

But what he didn't know was that at this time, Fu Dahai had quickly ordered the artillery battalion of the Imperial Guards to move hundreds of steps ahead, and soon began to shoot. To develop talent, most of its gunners have become ghosts.

"I'm afraid the Tartar cavalry is about to attack. The No. [-] will run back, and the No. [-] cannon will continue to advance."

"Commander Fu, why do you want to push the No. [-] cannon forward? It will be too late if you can't retreat by then."

"What are you afraid of? Didn't you see that this group of cavalry is as arrogant and rude as they were at the beginning? In this case, I will let them learn a lesson and let them know how to maintain the correct attack formation in front of the artillery battalion." Fu Dahai Then he shouted again: "Another thirty steps forward!"

At this time, some strong-armed Tartar traitorous cavalry were able to shoot arrows at the gunners of the No. [-] artillery battalion. It can be said that the distance between the two sides has been drawn very close, but Fu Dahai remained indifferent and ordered the No. [-] artillery position to continue to move forward. .

Fortunately, the artillerymen are very disciplined, and the Daming Cannons already had baffles and soft armor because the artillerymen are all treasures, so they didn't collapse, not to mention the fact that there were commanders and envoys. Hai Hai, a guy who is not afraid of death, has been at the forefront, until he showed his thumb and gestured for a while before he smiled and said:
"Let His Majesty watch the good show of our artillery camp."

After speaking, Fu Dahai immediately ordered: "Turn down the muzzle by [-] degrees, keep the elevation angle by [-] minutes, the fans of the first team are arranged in front, the second team retreats by [-] steps, and the muzzle is raised by [-] degrees. The third team protects the left and right wings, loads the powder, and ignites!"

With Fu Haihai's order, 21 Daming No. [-] guns began to fully display their power, and a dense rain of bullets composed of countless iron bullets overturned towards Li Yongfang's department, and Li Yongfang's department lost countless troops in an instant. Charge desperately, but don't want to charge the crossfire net more violently.

Many traitor cavalry were forced to turn their horses and run back, but they collided with the Mongolian two-flag cavalry who rushed to kill them. It was like two high-speed sports cars colliding suddenly, and the Mongolian cavalry camp was completely defeated. chaos.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing and said: "What a rich sea, this guy is using my cannon as a spearman, Oboi, you rush up first, take advantage of the enemy's instability, kill him for a while, let Huang Taiji see Look, don't think that sending two Han Mongolian cavalry can break through our defense line, it's just a dream."

"Yes!"

Oboi's cavalry rushed up, but at this moment it was Zhu Youjian who took the lead. He yelled and shot a traitor cavalryman's chest, and forced the cavalryman to die with a hole in his chest.

The other imperial guard cavalry did not dare to lag behind. Having already fought against Daishan's Eight Banners elite white-armored soldiers, they were very confident in dealing with the Han and Mongolian cavalry. In less than half an hour, Li Yongfang called for gold and took over the soldiers. Huang Taiji didn't blame Li Yongfang, nor did he expect that the artillery of the Ming army would suddenly become so powerful, not only with a longer range, but also with bursts of fire.
