Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 950
With the order of Daishan's army, [-] Qing troops marched southward, and rushed towards the coalition forces with a murderous look.

The Qing army's momentum was high, and they might have some problems fighting other people, but they didn't have any psychological pressure at all when they fought against North Korea.This is the reason for history. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, North Korea has been their doormat. They can fight whenever they want, and they have never missed. Do you have the confidence?

"Woo..."

The cold wind howled, and with the low sound of the horn, the battlefield was full of chills.

The Qing army set off from Baichuan, walked for a day, rested for a night, and then directly confronted the Ming army.

In the open field, the horses snorted, the soldiers breathed out white air, and the continuous horns echoed in the Qing army's formation, full of murderous aura.

"Dong dong dong" the dull and rhythmic sound of war drums sounded in the Ming army camp. The Ming army was not fully prepared, but they could only go all out.

The distance between North Korea and the Ming Dynasty is too far. Although there is a sea route, it is still relatively difficult to obtain support from the Ming Dynasty. The difficulty is no less than that of the Ming Dynasty sending troops into Sichuan.

Xie Qianhe knew that the imperial court would not have troops coming in a short time, so the coalition forces could only block the Qing army, otherwise they would be driven into the sea by the Qing army.

Amidst the sound of war drums, soldiers of the Ming army came to the edge of the camp under the command of the officers. The Ming army did not go out of the camp, but prepared to rely on the wall to defend against the enemy. Groups of gunmen walked to the wall, and the spearmen Then temporarily stand behind them, and the soldiers hold their weapons tightly and stand ready for battle.

Xie Qian walked to the front of the camp wearing armor and Ruan Mei, and watched the formation of the Qing army. They saw a dense crowd of people, with spears intertwined, like a bamboo forest. On the other hand, there are infantry soldiers wearing battle jackets, all of which are full of murderous looks.

In terms of the number of troops, the number of coalition forces is larger, but in terms of overall combat effectiveness, the Qing army is obviously stronger.The strength gap between the two sides is not huge, so the outcome of the battlefield is difficult to predict.

Xie Qian looked at the Qing army. He was defending with the stronghold. The Qing army wanted to break him, but the troops without absolute superiority could not do it. This is why he had no scruples and dared to stop the enemy here.

"Order all the ministries to cheer up the governor!" Xie Qian walked by the wall of the village and shouted loudly: "The Tartars have been driven to Huaibei by us. It won't be long before the imperial court can restore Shenjing, while we You can take the Liao land directly, the Tartars have nothing to fear, all the soldiers will give the Tartars a head-on blow today!"

As he said, the soldiers in the Ming camp immediately responded with shouts, and the shouts were accompanied by the sound of war drums, and the momentum was magnificent.

"Captain, the general of the battalion is not worried, but the safety of the flanks, the general is not at ease!"

Ruanmei hurriedly followed Xie Qian, a little worried about the North Korean army in the east, after all, their performance was really bad.

Hearing his words, Xie Qian couldn't help but stop and glance to the east, "3 horses are stationed on the hillside, condescending, and occupying a favorable location. If they still can't hold their ground, then the governor has nothing to say."

Considering the strength of the North Korean army, Xie Qian took good care of them from the beginning and arranged them on the less important flanks.

The hills were rolling there, and the Qing army had many horses, so Xie Qian judged that the Qing army would not focus on attacking the Korean army.

Looking at the North Korean military camp on the hillside, he felt a little uncertain. He let out a sigh and said in a deep voice: "The two camps are the horns of each other. If something goes wrong, we can send people to help. Don't think about it now, prepare Meet the Tartars."

In the middle of the Qing army, Dai Shan frowned slightly when he heard the shouts from the Ming army camp.

The current situation is different from before. Xie Qian's troops can only be regarded as second-rate troops in the Ming army.

"Ama, the formations are ready!" Wakda came to Daishan's side on horseback, and said, reining in his horse.

Hearing the sound, Dai Shan looked solemn. The Qing army hadn't won a big victory against the Ming army for a long time.Immediately, he slowly drew out his saber, and immediately shouted, "Send the left wing Mongolia to attack with the white flag."

"Woooo..." The sharp horn soared into the sky.

The three thousand cavalry of the Qing army, their horseshoes twitching the ground restlessly, and the horses snorting non-stop. With the sound of the horn, a Mongolian general clamped the horse's belly, and the cavalry slowly began to move forward. Their speed changed from slow to heavy. When it was fast, when it came to full speed at the end, the head of the horse in front kept ups and downs.

The cavalry of the Qing army suddenly mobilized, and the cavalry rushed to the Ming army overwhelmingly, with shouts, roars, and the sound of galloping horseshoes, soaring into the sky.

At this time, the camp of the Ming army became quiet instead. The soldiers held their weapons and stared at the Qing cavalry coming like a tide.

"The enemy is approaching five hundred paces!" Finally, a loud shout broke the calm in the camp.

The dust was flying, and the cavalry of the Qing army was getting closer and closer, [-] steps, [-] steps, and [-] steps, but the Frang machine gun protruding from the fence of the Ming army never fired.

This is because after several years of great wars, the Ming army found that in field battles, the damage of solid bullets is limited. It is better to switch to shotguns and quickly pour them out for four rounds, causing far greater damage than solid bullets. So this time The Ming army used shotguns.

At this time, Qingqi was close to 150 steps, and had already entered the attack range of the Ming army's Flang machine and firecrackers.

As the war drum in the army changed and the flag was waved down, amidst the roar of the officers, clouds of white smoke rose continuously from the fence. The gunners in the first row immediately lit the matchlock and raised their guns to shoot.

Amidst the continuous sound of cannons and blunderbusses, the entire Ming army's front line was immediately covered by white smoke, and in the white smoke, flames flashed from time to time, like summer thunderclouds.

In an instant, Frangji's iron sand was poured out in flakes, and rows of gunballs were woven into a dense net, roaring and shooting at the Qing cavalry.

The hundreds of cavalry running in the front suddenly turned on their backs, and the horses kept falling forward, throwing the knights out, and the gunballs roared, shooting down the Qing army continuously, and the most terrifying thing was the iron sand spilled out in pieces, just like one side. Like a sand wall, Qingqi had nowhere to dodge.

Qingqi rushed to 150, and every step forward, they suffered great casualties, and their speed suddenly slowed down. Qingqi seemed to be confronting the gunballs shot by the Ming army, and was blocked at a speed When they came down, it seemed that they had encountered an invisible obstacle. The Qing army kept falling off their horses, but they couldn't get close to the distance of a hundred steps.

The entire cavalry of the Qing army seemed to be held back by a huge force, but this huge force did not last long. When the four rounds of the Frang machine guns were fired and the Qing army faced with few gunshots, the Qing cavalry immediately seemed to be breaking free. The wild horse suddenly rushed to a hundred paces, then fifty paces.

At this time, some Qing cavalry began to throw arrows at the Ming army, while others swung their flying hooks, grabbed the fence of the Ming army, and then urged their horses to pull back. A dozen horses exerted force at the same time, and instantly pulled down a large section of the fence.
