Chapter five hundred and forty-five. The afterglow of the dynasty

He said he had had patrol and defense, and the military experience of the Governor of Shanxi, but in terms of military affairs, Wu Qi was a little more than 25 years old. He verbally shouted to wipe out the trespasses, but when he actually met, he was irritated. He gathered more than 67,000 Qin army infantry and the 8,000 Henan soldiers who gathered in Henan General Chen Yongfu in the small Lushan County. He confronted the trespasses for a day and a half, but one soldier and one soldier dared not order to leave the city.

Fortunately, the army of the trespassing army on the opposite side was large and slow, and it took a day and a half to complete the encirclement to the north. If it was encountered by any Dongjiang Army or any Qing army, Lushan County would have been trapped in a siege, and even Yuan Chonghuan could not enter the city.

In the north of the Ming Empire, the only main field force left is this Qin army. If the army is surrounded by a small city alone, it will be a disaster. If he is trapped in battle, he will be trapped to death.

It was still not too late. In the early morning, the drums in Lushan County, which had been silent for a day, were thunderous. Under the gaze of the rioters on the opposite side, sixteen cowhide slings roared on the east city wall. Teams of officials carried the forest flag and slowly emerged from the southeast city wall, and began to line up against the millions of rioters.

Although the armored cavalry of the border army had gone through a long journey, they were still energetic and energetic. The war horses were squirting and stomping on their hooves. The Shaanxi cavalry with rifles under their armpits were eager to try and look around. The three cavalry first took the three corners of the east, south and west, and then the brigade of infantry quickly arranged in a row, magnificently exposing the two thick fish scale formations on the ground.

Facing the newborn sun, the neat bayonet arrays facing the east reflected a chilling death light. The bright flags floating in the morning breeze were flying, and they were also mounted on wooden wheels, with solid and heavy general cannons and giant beasts pressing forward.

Today's official army was simply not like a team yesterday's official army, just because at the forefront of the army, a Yuan-character flag was the first to lead everyone.

This morale is so strong that it will make the opponent's formation confused just as soon as it appears. Amid the chaotic shouts, the riots of Hanazi clothes and carrying weapons of the trenched army emerged from the shack where they were lying on last night in horror. Some of them squeezed forward and had to shrink backward. The messy spirit was like an earthworm that was entangled and inseparable.

If a surprise attack is launched at this time, it will definitely achieve good results. Liu Quai, Bai Guangen and several other generals were eager to try it. However, suppressing this fighting spirit, Yuan Chonghuan waved his hand and asked the team to stand by.

His eyes were full of gloomy eyes, and he was coldly looking at the formation of the rebel army all over the mountains.

The chaos lasted for almost a few minutes, and the same drum sounded in the formation of the rebel army. Unlike Yuan Chonghuan's Qin army's war drums, the war drums of the rebel army were of different frequency, and were noisy like the cicadas in summer.

But..., overwhelming!

The drum sound was as shocking as all the cicadas in the world roared together, roaring dozens of kilometers from north to south. In the past, he spent the enemies of the King of Chu in the writings of Shigong Tai. But when he arrived here, Yuan Chonghuan truly understood what this feeling was. Not only him, but the Qin generals behind him couldn't help but change their faces and talked in a low voice.

"A group of scattered soldiers are just a brave man! Thousands of people chasing rabbits and driving more than 100,000 thieves to kill each other twice, I'm afraid of a ball!"

Gao Jie yelled loudly, letting the officers stop talking, but his words did not completely relieve morale problems. Bai Guangen, Niu Chenghu and others immediately snorted coldly.

Everyone knows that Li Chuang hated Gao Jie and wanted to pull his skin alive. This man has no way out.

But what about them?

In the hustle and bustle, the rebels carrying all kinds of soldiers had gathered quite thickly. Looking around, the hillside was filled with dense and unsharp guns and sharp weapons. Together, they were like the bitter thorn forest on the mountain, making people unable to help themselves. After three drums, the thorns suddenly cracked again. A middle-aged man wearing a yellowish robe and a Confucian scholar's crown walked out of the crowd on a horse and shouted.

"Where is the Governor Yuan?"

Although he looked at his appearance and the King of Rebellion, Li Zicheng, Yuan Chonghuan did not give up this possible opportunity. He tilted his head and signaled to the personal guard Li Weiguan. The latter immediately got off the horse with a tacit understanding and crawled backward.

After the man shouted three times, a reflection illuminated faintly on the walls of Lushan County.

If Mao Jue was here, he would probably exclaim that someone had traveled through time again. This thing was actually a gun that was more than three or four meters long, which was commonly used in the Opium War.

After all, after staying in the East *** level, the difference between the infantry gun and the carriage rifle in Dongjiang is the length of the gun and the range of the carriage rifle is also shorter than the rifle. It is estimated that Yuan Chonghuan reversed the push. In turn, the longer the barrel, the longer the range, which gives this weapon.

Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan did not have a steam machine tool like Mao Jue, so he could not rip out the bird guns of his subordinates. However, he spent a lot of effort to imitate the Dongjiang gun barrel to rip out the rip, and his accuracy also increased. The barrel of 3.89 meters and 8.9 meters effectively killed up to 250 meters to 300 meters.

Such painstaking efforts are just for a crucial shot on the battlefield. Don’t say that assassinating the opponent’s coach is a despicable path! Being able to stand and laugh to the end is the king! If you have the chance to get rid of Li Zicheng, Yuan Chonghuan will definitely do anything! No matter how you think about the consequences!

Unfortunately, as his status improved, Li Chuang, who was leading the charge, also began to stand up under the dangerous wall. Under the cover of several large shields, Yuan Chonghuan stood up to greet him. More than 100 meters in front of the two armies, the two were about thirty steps apart. The scholar with a stubborn face looked smiled and bowed with a smile.

"I am a magistrate of the government in the king's tent. I will pay homage to General Yuan!"

This title obviously disappointed Yuan Chonghuan, but his expression did not show much. Looking at the other party's smiling face, he shouted in a deep voice and a little annoyed manner.

"You are also a scholar! Leave your etiquette, loyalty and righteousness and commit yourself to the thief! What face do you have to talk to me in front of me?"

"Why didn't there be no? Qin lost his deer, and the princes in the world chased him together! This world is a virtuous person! Three hundred years ago, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was not a rebel in Yuanting? Yuan Supervisor, look at your side, and then look at the people on the other side. Those who were forced by the court to be desperate and unable to survive, so they had to rise up? Supervisor! The Ming Dynasty has lost its virtue! It's time for the country to change color!"

Niu Jinxing was naturally not given to him for being the Chief Superintendent of the Chuang Army. Faced with Yuan Chonghuan's disdainful questioning, he raised his head and laughed and talked.

"My family's King of Breaking started from the end! But it was Ziwei Star who descended to earth and was born with a unique nature! He led his troops to overcome obstacles for many years and spread his virtues. Now he has two million armored soldiers and tens of millions of people. It is the time to bravely shoulder the heavy burden of the world!"

"A good bird chooses a tree to live in! Supervisor Yuan is not a person who likes to kill. Why do you lose your life here for the sake of Zhu Ming who is flirting with his sleeves? My prince said that as long as the supervisor surrenders and chooses the official titles at will, it will be no problem to list the territory and rank the territory after unifying the world in the future!"

Yuan Chonghuan was a little stunned. It was a common practice for the country of etiquette to fight between the two armies. The messengers of both sides first became polite and polite, but he really didn't expect that Li Zicheng would surrender to his three-sided governor. Why should he?

After a moment of shock, a sneer appeared on Yuan Chonghuan's face. He laughed loudly and scolded loudly.

"My deeds? Sweeping all over the fields like locusts, killing people and getting food, and taking people to follow the thief. Can you really speak of moral deeds? In a certain opinion, Li Chuang is just a big thief!"

"You, who followed Li Chuang to act against the enemy, destroy the country, and become displaced. If you surrender early, you will still be a good citizen and be able to live in peace. If you are obsessed with it, you will be blood flowing all over the world, and your body and head are different, which will lead to your fate!"

As he said that, Yuan Chonghuan had already turned around with the reins of the horse. He had seen him let go of nearly 100,000 families of the rebel army, but he thought Yuan Chonghuan was also willing to surrender. Unexpectedly, his determination to fight was so firm that he had made a fuss. Niu Jinxing also clasped his fists in disappointment and pulled away. The bloody battle between the two sides was about to break out.

After returning to the camp, Yuan Chonghuan started to order quickly and loudly again.

"Niu Chenghu, Liu Guiai! You two cavalrymen are under the formation. Without the order of this supervisor, you must not go out lightly. Gao Jie, your gun formation will rush forward to resist the attack of the rebel army, Bai Guangen's car cannon camp, lift weights. The thieves will attack from the front road of Lushan County. If any unit attacks, they will attack directly. Each army will hold on to the camp. Those who dare to take a step back will kill!"

With an anxious call, all the generals and generals took the order and spread it quickly. However, Yuan Chonghuan's entire military formation was completely formed into a defensive formation.

Just as the flag was turbulent, the rebel army also came out. Li Zicheng's most famous tactics were three walls. The first one was to form a horse and elbow forward. The former looked back and the latter killed it! The heavy shock sound was like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. As Yuan Chonghuan expected, along the wide official road in front of the Lushan City from north to south, the rebel cavalry took the lead in killing the army from the middle of the camp.

In recent years, Li Zicheng's power expansion was directly withdrawn from the cavalry. The first few rows simply wore heavy armor of the official army, wind helmets, and carved a carriage of more than three meters long. The back was also wore leather armor. The establishment of the Yuan Dynasty made the nomadic line move south. In order not to repeat the mistakes of the Song Dynasty, the horse politics promoted by the Ming Dynasty now adds wings to the rebel army. The number of cavalry overwhelming was less than tens of thousands, and the dust raised by the horse's hooves was several meters high, covering the sky and overwhelming, heading straight for the Qin army's main formation.

It is impossible to say that the situation is not afraid. The Qin army in the forefront looked like earth, and one of them was even scared. A yellow trace spread directly on the crotch, emitting an unpleasant smell. But the biggest difference between the official army and the peasant army is that it is organized and advanced and retreated in moderation! The orderly official army relied on the banner and had easily defeated the bandit army more than ten times its own, especially Yuan Chonghuan, who studied under Dongjiang, emphasized this discipline.

"Triposus array! Open!"

In the front army, one hundred-house officers were hoarse and screaming shrillly. The officers who were just arranged neatly quickly retreated, and some hard things were exposed. They were wooden stakes cut in front of the Luzhai. Even with bayonets, Yuan Chonghuan was not stupid enough to use his infantry to fight the iron cavalry of the rebel army to break through the formation. Each hundred-house retracted behind the three Luzhais, appearing in three triangles. The entire army was like countless caltrops bulging in an instant.

Immediately, Yuan Chonghuan also showed the things he learned from Dongjiang to the riot army. At the riot army crowded on the official road, more than 200 large and small general cannons roared out, and a chamber of hot iron and fire ejected on the heads of these iron cavalry.

Mao Jue's artillery first emphasized accuracy, and the second was ammunition. However, Yuan Chonghuan did not learn the accuracy, nor did he have the capital to equip the army. He could only draw a cat and learn about tigers. Fortunately, the shrunk bullet, a weapon that was used on the battlefield on a large scale during the Civil War in the United States did not disappoint him.

The simple cannon medicine exploded in the air, and the hot iron sieve beads hit the head and face. With the banging sound, the iron helmets filled with bubble eyes could not be resisted. The heads of the rushing cavalrymen fell down when they were tilted, and then they even knocked their own people overturned. They had never seen the official army use such a firearm. The first wave of the rushing army was covered, and at least thousands of cavalry were knocked down in one round, and the rushing was suffocated.

"As long as I order, the thief army can only shoot at eighty steps!"

Walking among the military formations, Gao Jie, a boss from the four towns in Jiangbei, was also roaring, but there were many military soldiers who had just joined the army this year. The momentum of striking the sky and earth scared them. Before Gao Jie could finish his words, the first row of soldiers had already pulled the trigger, and a crackling sound of gunfire suddenly rang out.

The lingering smoke was indeed scary, but the armored cavalry of the rebel army rushing in front did not fall two or three times.

Fortunately, there were three-stage shots. After the first row fired, they had to retreat. Before the second row of the mechanical office of the standing gun was about to put down the gun and fired, Gao Jie cursed and raised his sword and cut several musketeers in succession. The front-line personal soldiers also let go of their hands to kill and killed dozens of people. Only then did they stop this wave. Qin army musketeers beating their hearts at the bodies of comrades who had lost their heads beside them, and then at the overwhelming rebellion cavalry in front of them. Under the heavy pressure, everyone was on the verge of madness.

"shot!"

The sound was like death to the point of death, and the second row of gun bullets was shot out immediately after the third row of gun bullets. This time, the tight cavalry formation of the rebel army seemed to have encountered a heavy hammer, and countless people fell off their horses.

In the last thirty meters, the already sparse cavalry formation was installed into the Qin army formation. The crackling sound dropped off the horse and hit the Luzhai, hitting the thing in a mess. At the same time, it also threw the knights above. Some of the iron armored cavalry of the rebel army were installed into the formation desperately, and they pierced two or three of them like candied haws. However, the rushing ended abruptly and did not disrupt the Qin army formation.

"Damn it, let me fuck him a baby day!"

A small bayonet really sent an extremely big change to the battlefield. Amid Gao Jie's unpleasant screams, his personal soldiers stabbed him with a spear. The crusade army, who had no time to change the sabers, stabbed them to death. Under the leadership of the personal soldiers, layers of bayonets stabbed out like a mountain of swords. Amid the screams one after another, the crusade army was like butter sticking to the fireplace, melting layer by layer.

Finally, he couldn't hold on. With a wow, the riots behind him pulled out their horses and walked away smoothly, killing them so hard that the Qin army holding the bayonet rushed forward with red eyes, but a rapid bang sounded in the army.

"Everyone comes back, I'll come back!"

Some of them were called back, but some were already in the devil and then used bayonets to fight. However, the cavalry quickly dispersed. Before they could wake up, the dense gunshot tips came into view.

Li Zicheng's second wall, with a spear of 30,000, stabbing like flying! With the howling roar, sickles, spears, halberds, shovels, and all kinds of sharp and rusty long soldiers pierced. When they rushed out, the hundred Qin soldiers were pierced to the ground in screams. Some turned their heads and ran a few steps, and more than a dozen weapons were already coming out of their chests with blood.

Facing this Hedgehog Mountain, Gao Jie and several former generals also used their energy to drink milk, cursing their mother and shouting.

"Recharge, shoot!"

After fighting for more than ten minutes, at least before the second round of attack, the general's cannon roared again, and the gushing shrapnel and the hot bird gun bullets tore through the rifle army's gun formation. When the swords and guns were red, the Qin army once again strangled the remaining formation.

Yuan Chonghuan's eyes had already left the formation. He held the telescope given to him by Mao Jue. He looked at the mountain gloomyly. There, the cavalry of the rebels who had just been defeated, gathered again from fragments and once again overwhelmed. Behind this battle gun formation, more rebels gathered together like ants looking for food, countless.
