Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1195 The Battle of the Three Kings ([-])
Because of the weak national power of the Qing court and the lack of recovery of the local economy, most of the green battalion soldiers could only wear a cloth jacket and a red-topped bamboo hat, and they were done.

Most of the green battalion soldiers didn't even have a piece of armor, which is why the green battalion suffered heavy casualties during the attack on the village.

At this time, Liu Zhong, Li Benshen and other generals pressed down on the Ming army's large formation. The Qing army in a neat formation raised the shield to their chests, struck the shield with their swords, and pushed forward like a wall.

Facing the Ming army, their only advantage was that they had a large number of soldiers. The soldiers marched in formation, and their comrades were by their side, making them feel safe and have the courage to charge forward.

One person may be timid to do one thing, but many people, tens of thousands of people do it together, it is more effective than alcohol and cowardice.

Among the crowd, relying on the number of people, they will be fearless.

Li Benshen was wearing armor, holding a saber and walking in the queue with his subordinates. Although the green camp was reluctant, but on the battlefield, how to do it, how to do it, after all, there are military laws.

The Qing army advanced forward and soon entered the range of two miles, and at this moment, the Ming army's artillery team roared again.

Li Benshen only saw the cannons firing one after the other in the bright formation opposite, with white smoke rising from the muzzles, and the cannons retreating violently, the soldiers around him were suddenly empty, and a rain of blood suddenly fell from the sky.

The four hundred rapid-fire guns of the Ming army opened fire in unison, and the Qing army, which was slowly advancing in a dense formation, was immediately shot a few blanks.

The artillery of the Ming army fired in a straight line. The shells tore the bodies of the two people in front to shreds, and then knocked over several people in succession, leaving long scarlet bloodstains along the way, which is shocking.

"Don't panic, move on!"

Li Benshen raised his knife to stabilize the morale of the army amidst the roaring shells, and just as he yelled, a person beside him was hit in the abdomen by the shell, and his whole body suddenly bowed and deformed, and was thrown backwards by the shell, knocking down several people behind him one after another. Celebrities.

Having comrades by my side makes me feel reliable and courageous, but if I see my comrades being beaten so that their limbs are splattered and hot blood is sprayed all over my face, I am afraid that my courage will fall to the ground and I will not be able to pick it up. .

The artillery bombardment of the Ming army, after one round, beat the Qing army to the ground.

They were still two miles away from the bright formation. If they walked over with the formation, the army would have collapsed before reaching the formation.

Li Ben shrank his neck deeply, and suddenly shouted: "Come on, spread out and charge!"

The Qing army, which formed a dense formation, was about to collapse at this time. If they didn't rush forward and vent their fear, they would have to run away after being hit by a few shots.

The Ming army's shelling made them afraid to gather together. When they heard the order, they suddenly shouted and ran wildly regardless of the formation. Once they dispersed, the damage caused by the Ming army's artillery was really small.

However, not all the green battalion soldiers scattered and ran wildly. Many hard-headed generals still ordered their soldiers to gather together, form a tight formation, and advance forward. Naturally, they were greeted by fierce shelling from the Ming army. He was still broken up and ran wildly with his feet spread apart.

For a moment, on the vast battlefield, countless figures were running across the wilderness holding weapons.

One after another, the shells smashed into the crowd, flying people up and splashing the soil. The scene was extremely spectacular.

Relying on the courage of their numbers, the Qing army rushed towards the Ming army's formation like a tide. Panting and running for more than a mile, they soon entered a distance of two hundred paces. At this moment, the Ming army's musketeers He raised the blunderbuss horizontally, and a wave of bullets rained head-on.

Just now when the cavalry faced the Ming army's volleyball, due to the fast impact speed of the cavalry, the power of the blunderbuss array was not intuitively reflected.

When the green battalion soldiers rushed up, the densely poured gunballs almost knocked down half of the Qing army in the front row.

When the projectile hit the shield, sparks splashed all over the body, blood splashed immediately, a big blood hole appeared, and the Qing army fell down in pain.

A general of the Qing soldiers charged forward with his saber held high, and suddenly he was hit by a gun in the leg, and his body fell violently. The soldiers behind trampled to death.

However, he was fortunate enough that he had time to check the wound, and with a wailing sound, a bullet pierced through the hat on top of his head, blood dripping from him immediately, and he fell down with his eyes wide open.

The Qing army behind was stepping on his corpse. A soldier stepped over his corpse and was shot twice in a row. His body trembled and he threw himself on Bazong's corpse.

The soldiers of the Qing army fought one after another, rushing to death in pieces like mowing grass. However, after all, the Qing army was so numerous that the Ming army could not kill them all. They still used thousands of corpses to open a road and killed them. Ming Jun came forward.

Li Guo didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately roared, "Pikeman, go!"

Just when the Qing army moved away the horses and approached the waist-deep trench, Li Guo waved his hand, and the pikemen standing behind the gunmen immediately ran forward with their spears from the gap between the gunmen and blocked them. In front of the gunmen.

A Qing army brandished a saber, jumped down the ditch, and wanted to climb up and kill the Ming army gunner, but the Ming army spearman who stepped forward suddenly stabbed the Qing army in the abdomen, and kicked him down the ditch.

Shouts of killing like a raging sea sounded in front of the Ming army's formation. The Qing army ran wildly for nearly two miles, exhausted. The Ming army stabbed the Qing army to death with their spears. dull.

The Qing army ran into the large formation of the Ming army, and the shouts of killing rose to the sky. After the archers of the Qing army entered the range, they ran and bent their bows to the full moon. Take out an arrow, put it on the bowstring, and continue to shoot while running.

The migratory locusts that rose from the sky lobbed into the formation of the Ming army. The arrows were inserted into the ground, and the tails of the arrow shafts vibrated and made a slight buzzing sound.

The Qing army shot arrows, and the green battalion soldiers rushed into the trench. The Ming army's front line was gradually deformed under the impact. Some gun soldiers had already inserted sprints, or pulled out their knives, and participated in melee combat.

The volleyball shooting also turned into a free bombardment at this time. The Ming army gunmen anxiously loaded ammunition, then aimed at the Qing army, and shot directly.

During the fierce battle, the trenches in front of the Ming army were filled with corpses in a short time, and the Qing army suffered huge losses.

Dorgon knew that with the perseverance of the green battalion, it was not easy to break through the blunderbuss formation and hit the front of the Ming army to fight with the Ming army. It was wishful thinking for them to break through the Ming army's line, and if the green battalion attacked for a while, the Ming army would If you don't retreat, the morale of the green camp is estimated to be blown out.

He saw that the Ming army's front line was a little loose, and immediately shouted anxiously: "Hurry up, take advantage of the fierce battle in the front line, the Ma army seizes the opportunity and outflanks it from both wings!"

After receiving Dorgon's order, Lou Qin and Wakda were already ready. They knew that the responsibility was heavy, and as soon as they received the military order, they immediately urged the cavalry to go out.

Like two big snakes, the cavalry turned a corner, avoiding the front and rushing towards the wings of the Ming army.

When the cavalry of the Qing army left the formation, Wang Yan already knew what shit they were going to do. He calmly put down the binoculars and said to the officer: "Order the artillery team to adjust their direction immediately, and charge the cavalry to temporarily cover the rear formation. Wings ready for impact!"

Lou Qin hit the horse's hip with a saber, and the horse let out a long cry of pain, and shot out like lightning. The horse army behind him let out a roar like a raging wave, and followed him, galloping at high speed.

Two cavalrymen came out in two directions. They attempted to bypass the front line of the Ming army, which was fighting fiercely, to attack the two wings of the Ming army.

However, as soon as Lou Qin turned around, he encountered a burst of shelling head-on, and the cavalry suddenly turned on their backs and fell to the ground one after another.

This made him feel cold for a moment. He never thought that the artillery of the Ming army could adjust its direction so quickly.

Wakda on the other side also suffered the same situation, but they didn't stop. Both of them led the cavalry and braved the artillery fire.

In a blink of an eye, the cavalry rushed two hundred steps to the flanks, and the gunners of the Ming army on the left and right flanks immediately raised their guns.

Li Dingguo and Liu Fangliang pulled out their knives almost at the same time, pointed at Qingqi with their knives, and let out a roar from their mouths, "Arrange guns, fire!"

The cavalry of the Qing army on the left and right wings were divided into two waves this time. The first wave was to attack and harass the cavalry, and the second wave was to directly hit the bright array.

Braving the rain of bullets, the Qing cavalry gritted their teeth and rushed to the front of the formation. They fired a volley back and immediately turned around.

The Ming army fired a volley of guns and hit them head-on. The Qing cavalry hit the horse rejection post, the horse's belly was pierced by the sharp post, and the cavalry was hit by the gun pellets, falling off their horses one after another.

The Qingqi paid a lot of casualties and rushed to the front of the formation, but they could bear these casualties, because once they approached the bright formation, they were ready to slaughter.

Qing cavalry followed one after another, and entered a distance of [-] steps. It didn't matter whether the horse hit the repelling horse and sent the soldiers flying, or the soldiers were knocked off the horse by the bullets, they were about to jump over the ditch and hit the bright array.

At this moment, Li Dingguo yelled angrily, "Thunderstorm, swarm!"

In the formation of the Ming army, a group of soldiers hurriedly took out iron bumps from the wooden box. After they lit the fire, they rushed forward with the thunder that flashed sparks, and when they reached the front of the formation, Immediately throw it hard.

At the same time, the soldiers carrying the swarm also ignited the fuse, and countless rockets flew out.

These weapons were originally used to defend the village, but as a result, the Qing army only attacked the village once, and was beaten back before getting close to the wall of the village, making these weapons useless.

At this time, the cavalry rushing to the front could already see the faces of the Ming army. They clenched their spears tightly and leaned forward, ready to harvest the Ming army.

Suddenly a wave of air hit, and the horses and knights soared into the air.

The forward cavalry felt an earth-shattering force coming, and countless huge explosions sounded around them, and the horses and knights fell to the ground like hail.

A Jia La Zhangjing was thrown to the ground by the horse. He stood up with a bloody face and looked around dully. He saw the cavalry around him being blown away by explosions, countless arrows trailing flames, Rushing around, creating an insurmountable death zone for the Qing army.

Seeing this, the cavalry of the Qing Army behind were stupefied with fright, and many of them couldn't help reining in their horses and stopped.

After the explosion, the surviving Qingqi woke up like a dream, and suddenly someone yelled, "Run!" Qingqi turned around in a swarm and ran back.

Some of the cavalry didn't have time to stop, and suddenly collided with people and let out a burst of wailing.

A very small number of cavalry rushed through the explosion area and jumped over the deep trenches, but the soldiers of the Ming army, the long soldiers, aimed at the torso of the enemy cavalry and poked at the horse, and the gunners with knives only picked up the horse's legs Cut, the few Qing cavalry were overwhelmed by the Ming army in a short while.

At this time, the middle army of the Ming army suddenly rang a drum, and the rampaging horse army huddled in the rear of the Ming army suddenly became restless.

"Rampaging the horse army! Kill!" Wang Shixiu, who had been waiting for a long time, raised his gun and shouted.

The war drum encouraged people to forge ahead. After Zhao Shenkuan and Qin Shangxing heard the order, the two warriors immediately roared: "Brothers, go!" Charge out and chase the retreating cavalry of the Qing army!
