Chapter 772

The Qing army, which had just occupied Xiayangbao, was cheering, but more than 20 mortars of the Wei army opened fire in unison.

When the explosive bomb landed on the battlefield, more than 5000 Qing troops were immediately turned upside down, and the air waves generated by the explosion swept away pieces of Qing soldiers.

Sun Maosheng reacted quickly and rolled into the anti-cannon pit of the Wei army. A shell exploded where he was standing, tearing the bodies of several Qing soldiers to pieces. Their stumps were thrown into the sky, and then fell like rain , The minced meat crackled on him, making him tremble with fright.

After the explosion, the battlefield was in a mess, dust and gunpowder smoke obscured sight, and there were soldiers rolling and crying everywhere.

This is Wei Jun's blooming ammunition. Although the Qing army knew about it a long time ago, they never imitated it.

Flower bombs are not like copper cannons and self-generating fire blunderbusses. The latter two were captured by the Qing army, and the technical problems were not serious, but flower bombs were a little different. Its most critical fuze part was not so easy to get out. .

The Qing court checked the materials of the Ming Dynasty and tried to make improvements on the basis of the Ming Dynasty's flower bombs, but the things they created were not only not powerful enough, but also unsafe.

The fuze of Wei Jun’s flower bomb uses a lead wire wound on the cork, how far the lead wire is used for shooting, and how many times the cork rotates. There are regulations and data support. The data is obtained after a large number of test shots. It is clear. If the army wants to get it out, it can't be lazy. It has to conduct a lot of test firings to get its own data.

Different guns and different gunpowder formulas will cause differences in the range and landing time of the shells. However, bombs that explode too early or too late will not work. Therefore, you must experiment with various data based on your own artillery to create your own fuze.

In the distance, Azig observed Xiayang Fort with binoculars with protruding eyes, his hands trembling.

Although the smoke and dust obscured his sight, the violent explosion just now and the faint wailing sound at this time let him know that the defenders on the position suffered a great loss.

Just as he was shocked by the bombardment of the Wei army and felt heartbroken for the casualties of the Qing army, a sudden earth-shattering cry of killing came to his ears, and he couldn't help being startled. The camera quickly passed the smoky Xiayang Fort, Looking at the second line of defense of the Wei army, they saw a group of cavalry galloping out. The leader was riding a horse, holding a hard bow, and behind him was a black flag with a big "Hu" written on it. Xiayang Fort.

In an instant, Azig turned pale with fright, his heart was about to bleed, and he hurriedly ordered, "Quick, Ming Jin withdraws!"

At this time, the battlefield after the explosion was in a mess, and there were wounded soldiers everywhere. Sun Maosheng did not continue to hide in the artillery pit. As a veteran soldier on the battlefield, he had a premonition that after the bombardment, the Wei army would make another move. One round is to countercharge.

Regardless of the situation, it would be extremely dangerous to continue hiding. He hurriedly climbed out of the artillery pit, preparing to escape in the chaos.

At this time, Sun Maosheng was standing on the ground, with billowing smoke and dust, blurred vision, screaming for help all around, soldiers running in panic everywhere in the smoke and dust, scurrying around like headless flies, all of them were blown into a daze .

"Help me quickly! Go back and raise the flag for you!" A voice sounded, and Sun Maosheng turned his head to look. It was a blue-armored eight-banner Jia Lazhangjing. He was sitting in a pool of blood, with seven or eight blue-armored soldiers lying around broken leg.

Sun Maosheng didn't want to care about it, but the word "raise the flag" made him unable to move. He hurriedly stepped forward to help the blue-armored general: "Master, I'll help you!"

"What a slave!" Lan Jiajiang grinned in pain, but still praised him.

He is none other than Shang Kewei, Shang Kexi's brother.

After Shang Kexi's death, in order to win people's hearts, Man Qing let Shang Zhixin take over the title, but Shang Zhixin was only 12 years old, and the Han army's inlaid blue flag was mainly supported by his uncles.

At this time, the two had just got up, and without moving two steps, there was a roar of horseshoes. Hu Guozhu led nearly a thousand cavalry, and suddenly rushed into the smoke-filled position. The shit out of removing the armor.

Shang Kewei turned his head to see this scene, his eyeballs almost popped out, and his face was full of horror. At this moment, no matter what, he couldn't stop Wei Jun and Ma Jun. He hurriedly roared, "Help me out!"

The Wei army's horse army rushed into the position, hacking and killing the chaotic Qing army, and the Wei army's infantry followed closely. The Qing army, caught off guard and suffered heavy losses, turned around and fled away. Hu Guozhu raised his sword and said, "Brothers, kill!"

"Kill!" Wei Jun's horses were mixed, and they came back with overwhelming momentum. The adrenaline of the soldiers was secreted rapidly, and the horses connected with humanity also felt the master's strong killing intent. Among the Qing army wearing Douhats, the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain erupted.

Without Azige Mingjin withdrawing troops, the Qing army who had just occupied Xiayangbao fled in the wild, and the Wei army followed behind, massacring the Qing army whose morale had collapsed.

In the blink of an eye, the Qing army lost thousands of people, spent countless firearms, and fought for a whole morning before taking Xiayangbao, which was taken back by the Wei army.

On the hillside, all the generals of the Qing army were silent and speechless for a moment. Azig, with red eyes, sighed for a while: "It's a failure. Let's come here today and let the cavalry go to meet the defeated army."

The soldiers of the Wei army chased and killed them all the way, crossing the earthen walls and trenches, and saw the Qing army cavalry responding, so they burned the Qing army's shield chariots and retreated to the line of defense.

Of the 2000 Qing troops, only [-] fled back after World War I, and the rest were either killed or captured by the Wei army.

When the casualty report came up, Azig, who was full of ambitions, felt cold in an instant. He had a total of only 5 horses, and he didn't succeed in half a day. There was no way to fight this battle.

At this time, the morale of the Qing army was exhausted, and Azig had no way to break through the line of defense, so he pulled the rein bitterly and returned to the camp.

The Wei army regained Xiayangbao, and the soldiers hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield and rearranged the battlefield, waiting for the Qing army to attack again.

It was night, in the Qing army camp, Azig stood in the tent with his hands behind his back, and many generals fell silent.

At this moment, Azig suddenly turned around, and said in a deep voice: "If you continue to attack, if I don't drive the Wei army back, the troops will be wiped out." Azige walked back and forth for a few steps, then stopped to scan the generals , Cheeks agitated: "Zhunta, you immediately have people dig deep trenches overnight, build low walls, and build multiple lines of defense according to the fortifications of the Wei army."

Zhunta was taken aback for a moment, "Will the lord change from offense to defense?"

Azig nodded, shook his head again, did not answer, but continued to order: "Ye Chen, send someone to collect a batch of boats in the upper reaches of Sushui River, and hide them. This king will be of great use!"
