Chapter 316 Give Duduo a firecracker

The army of the Qing army stopped three miles away from the camp. Duoduo stood under the banner of the big flag. First, he observed the camp of the Wei army with his naked eyes.

The Wei army camp was divided into three camps, the left and right battalions had fewer people, and the middle camp had more tents.

Duoduo took a cursory glance and knew that the Wei army would have no fewer than 3 troops.

Although he had known Gao Yihuan's strength for a long time, when he saw the camp, he still couldn't help sighing that Gao Yihuan, a general who broke into the army, had more troops than Bai Wang, who was in charge of Henan's military affairs, and was even more capable of fighting.

From this point of view, it is known that Gao Yihuan is an ambitious guy who is unwilling to be lonely.

It's just that Duoduo couldn't figure it out, since Gao Yihuan had ambitions, why didn't he save his strength, or go to fight the Ming army in the south, but he wanted to fight him to the death.

What good would it do him?

"Bring the binoculars!" Duoduo turned his head and ordered.

A personal guard behind him hurriedly got off his horse and untied a bundle, which contained an exquisite box. After the personal guard opened it, he took out a yellow box and presented it to Duoduo.

The telescope is a Western gadget, a rare object, not easy to obtain, even rarer outside the customs, and can only be seized.

Duoduo took it over, pulled out his beloved Portuguese binoculars, and put it in front of his eyes to observe the Wei army camp.

Doduo first saw that on the fence, every thirty steps or so, there was a black cannon sticking out, aiming at the front.

These guns are mainly small Francophone guns for field battles. Because they are not airtight and have a short range, they can only be placed in front of the formation.

Runing’s cannon workshop has already begun to try to cast long-tube copper cannons. Compared with copper cannons, iron cannons are much more fragile and cannot withstand the increasing pressure of the chamber, and cast iron cannons are easy to rust, which is not as good as copper cannons. It has high hardness and good toughness, and it is not as light as copper cannons.

This is also closely following the trend of Western field guns. Copper guns will become the mainstream until the technology of iron and steel smelting is developed.

The development of Wei Jun's artillery is slow, mainly because there are no copper resources in hand, but if it is successful, the artillery can be built to replace the Francophone, and take advantage of the range to mount the artillery at the height of the two wings to fire sideways. , Keep strangling the enemy.

Duoduo looked at the artillery, then observed the camp, and found that the camp had been surrounded by wooden fences as thick as arms.

From the gaps in the wood, a lot of blunderbuss protruded, and there were a lot of spearmen lined up behind the fence. The fine iron spearheads reflected the sunlight, and the shimmering silver light was extremely dazzling.

Looking at the banners and flags in the camp, Duoduo knew that the soldiers of the Wei army should be ready for battle.

Duoduo continued to observe with the binoculars, and saw that the Wei army behind the fence was waiting in formation. There was still a lot of new soil inside and outside the camp. Knowing that Gao Yihuan had also dug a trench to protect the camp, he knew that if he was not prepared, it might not be easy to attack the Wei army's camp.

This tall barbarian named his team "Wei Wujun", and he was a little shameless. He had just made his debut a few years ago, relied on intrigue and tricks, and achieved a little record, so he dared to call himself the strongest in the world and invincible in the Central Plains.

At this time, Duoduo breathed out from his nostrils, and was about to put away the binoculars, let the soldiers retreat to the camp, rushed to build shield vehicles and trench bridges, and then wiped out Gao Yihuan to let him know who is invincible.

Just as he was about to put down the binoculars, he suddenly found that the gate of the Wei Army's central camp was pushed open by soldiers, and more than a dozen people moved away the horses and antlers blocking the way together, and saw a general riding out.

Doduo quickly aimed the binoculars at the gate of the camp, and saw a fat man with a short beard, wearing a black armor with mountain patterns on his body, an iron helmet with phoenix wings on his head, and a three-foot-long pheasant feather as a Helmet, wearing a black cloak, and riding a black horse, came out from the gate of the camp.

There are two generals on each side of him, all wearing iron armor, one has a black face and carries a long-handled axe, the other has a red face and holds a Daguan knife in his hand, very mighty.

Duoduo also knew a little about the Wei army. Looking at the two generals on the left and right, they were the generals of the Wei army who had appeared in Yancheng, Xu Heihu and Hu Dawei.

Guarded by two fierce generals, the fat man in the middle must be Gao Manzi.

Duoduo couldn't help turning back the binoculars to Gao Yihuan, whose circular field of vision took Gao Yihuan's people and horses into his eyes.

"This is Gao Manzi? He looks very average. Although he has a small beard, his face is too tender." Duoduo couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He put down the binoculars and asked, "Is the man in the middle Gao Manzi?"

Naturally, everyone present didn't know each other. Gao Yihuan had been in the limelight a few times recently. Everyone had only heard the name, but had never met him.

Last time when the army chased to Yancheng, this guy hid behind, and no one had a chance to see him.

"What is Gao Manzi doing here, is he looking for death?" Bei Zitun said angrily.

While he was speaking, behind Gao Yihuan, more than a dozen soldiers suddenly pushed out a vehicle from the camp, and a bloody figure on it was tied to a pillar.

Gao Yihuan led the men and horses, pushed the cart, and stopped [-] steps away from the camp gate.

Duoduo took a look through the binoculars, and immediately recognized the tied person as Shen Zhixiang.

Shen Zhixiang was nearly dragged to death by the horses, his body was bloody and bloody, but his scalp was bald, and there was no hair covering his face, so that Duoduo recognized him at a glance.

"What is Gao Yihuan going to do?" Duoduo's face darkened instantly.

At this time, Gao Yihuan, who was riding on the horse, waved his hand suddenly, and several spearmen standing beside the vehicle immediately raised their guns and stabbed together. Six or seven spears stabbed Shen Zhixiang's buttocks and thighs at the same time.

"Ah~" A desolate cry sounded in front of the camp, and Shen Zhixiang, who was originally unconscious, suddenly woke up, with a heart-piercing wail from his mouth.

With this call, a white-armored general in the Qing army collapsed instantly, "My lord, it's my father~"

The faces of many Qing soldiers suddenly became ugly, and the men and horses couldn't help being a little commotion. Both the Manchus and the Hans began to be filled with righteous indignation and cursed.

Gao Manzi was provoking the entire Eight Banners. The Qing army watched the soldiers of the Wei army keep poking at Shen Zhixiang's body. After a while, Shen Zhixiang's lower body was stabbed and the beehive was sunk. In an instant, half a bucket of blood flowed out.

The Qing army heard Shen Zhixiang's screams, and there was a buzzing sound in the queue.The Duke of the Qing Dynasty, being bloodletted and tortured in front of the army like this, does not take the Qing Dynasty seriously.

Duoduo saw Gao Yihuan sneer at him from the binoculars, and made a gesture with his hand that he couldn't understand, but looking at his expression, he knew it was an insult.

He put down the binoculars, his face turned pale with anger, but Shen Yongzhong had already got off his horse and fell to the ground, crying bitterly: "My lord, my father has done a great service to the Qing Dynasty! I beg your lord to save my father!"

With such a long distance, the cavalry rushed over, Gao Yihuan had already finished Shen Zhixiang, and Shen Zhixiang would definitely not be rescued, but he could not let Gao Yihuan torture Shen Zhixiang in front of the army and damage his morale.

Since they can't be rescued, they should force Gao Yihuan to kill him earlier. If Shen Zhixiang is allowed to keep shouting, it will greatly dampen the spirit of the Qing army.

Duoduo gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Yongzhong, this king promises you to lead the troops and take Duke Xushun back!"

When Shen Yongzhong heard the words, he stopped crying immediately, saluted quickly, then got on his horse, and led nearly a thousand cavalry to rush out.

When Gao Yihuan saw the Tartar cavalry coming, he immediately waved his hand, pulled out the reins, and ran back to the camp.

In a short while, the cavalry of the Qing army rushed to the front of the chariot. Shen Yongzhong jumped off his horse before he could stand still, stepped into the chariot, and cried out in pain, "Father~ daddy~"

Duoduo saw Gao Yihuan retreating, and Shen Yongzhong snatched the carriage, and Fang let out a heavy breath, but the carriage suddenly exploded with a loud "boom", and Shen Zhixiang, who was tied up, was instantly torn into pieces, while Shen Yongzhong and the others The general of the Han army banner was also blown to pieces, and the surrounding Tartar cavalry fell to the ground one after another, rolling and wailing.

In the large formation of the Qing army, the soldiers of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion were stunned by the explosion...
"Gao Yihuan!" Seeing this, Doduo's face was full of astonishment, his eyes instantly bulged, and his whole body was so angry that he almost exploded, "I won't kill you, I swear I won't be human!"
