Chapter 17 Fierce Battle
Yu's army has many * hands, coupled with chest walls, horses and trenches as cover, completely ignoring the charge of the Jiannu cavalry and giving full play to the advantage of three-stage attacks. Rows of * hands take turns to move forward and launch behind the chest wall.
As a result, the first charge of 2,000 Jiannu cavalry lasted for less than two quarters, and then collapsed. More than 300 wounded and corpses were discarded before the battle, and many killed and injured horses, and the rest of the Jiannu cavalry fled back in dismay.
Dudu was suddenly a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect that an army would have such strong firepower. This Yu's army would be so powerful, and the cannon would be so sharp.
Two thousand Mongolian and Eight Banner cavalry rushed to face and were cut over by others. They didn't even touch the enemy's defense line. What's more, their cavalry could not even shoot out a single arrow, so they were repulsed.
So he quickly adjusted his tactics, gave up the method of charging the cavalry, and ordered the armored soldiers to fight. This time, he directly transferred 4,000 troops to fight.
Among these 4,000 troops, about 2,000 are the flag of the Han army, which are composed of the Ming army or the young and strong men captured out of the customs. In the Ming army, it is regarded as the Wuzhen Chaoha battalion, equipped with some firearms, and the birds are the weapons they use more.
The other 1,000 are the armored men of the Eight Banners of Jiannu, who are their main force, and the remaining 1,000 are the infantry drawn from the Eight Banners of Mongolia.
The 4,000 infantry were equipped with many shields. After raising their shields and shouting, under the leadership of several military generals, the long guns were like a forest, and the shields began to push towards the defense line of the Yu family army as black as a wall.
Seeing that Du Du's slave was replaced, Yu Zhenshan sat in the army, and his face remained unchanged. He ordered the enemy to enter the range, so he first shelled and then continued to shoot with guns.
There is nothing new in such a battle. Yu Jiajun has fought too many such a battle. Many enemies are suffoed in front of the tactics of the family army, just because they are completely unaware of the ability of Yu Jiajun's firepower output.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with Du Du to do this, but it is simply a dream to break through the defense line of Yu's army in this way, which is similar to death.
Yu Jiajun is now a standard platoon to shoot party members. His favorite thing is that the enemy uses this method to fight against them head-on. In this way, it can't be more pleasant when shooting.
So soon after these Jiannu infantry entered the battle, they were immediately bombarded by the sea wolf artillery. Even the sea wolf artillery used solid bullets. In this cold environment, the ground was frozen solidly, which is suitable for real bouncing and killing.
Shells flew into the array of Jiannu's army, and each shell landed. Even if a bloody alley could be opened in the team of Jiannu's team, anyone who blocked the passage of the cannonball could only become a victim. After a row of cannons was hit, Jiannu originally looked like a neat formation, He was beaten into the old man's gums, and there were bloody gaps everywhere.
The shield armor is like paper paste in front of these shells and has no protective effect. Many slave soldiers will be torn off even if they are torn off by shells. Some of them will even be crushed on the spot. Their internal organs and limbs are flying around in the crowd, and their flesh and blood are everywhere.
It's ridiculous that Du Du actually let his men discharge such a dense formation, which just became a living target for the artillery of the Yu family's army. The artillerymen were happy. In a cold day, their heads soon steamed and sweated hotly.
Jiannu's soldiers would be frightened, but at least the Eight Banners Army was disciplined and strict. They did not dare to collapse on the spot, so they had to evacuate the formation slightly to minimize the killing and injury of such shells to them.
When they entered a 200-meter distance here, the infantry * hands of the Yu army began to get angry again. Rows of * hands came forward and began to shoot guns, cutting rows of slave soldiers to the ground like shooting live targets.
The soldiers of Jiannu are aggrieved! At least they are elite soldiers, okay? When have you been bullied like this? Seeing the enemy's array in front of him, he couldn't attack it, only to be beaten.
Jiannu is also a human being. Although they are usually arrogant against the Ming officials and soldiers, they can only eat when they meet the position of the Yu family army.
Of course, there is no need to say that Jiannu's offensive was beaten by the Yu family army. Before they attacked in front of the Yu family's defense line, they had been completely defeated and fled back.
Du Du's claws made him realize that he has encountered a real hard stubble today. This kind of play is something he has never seen before. The sharpness of the firearm in Yu Jiajun's hand is far beyond his understanding of the bird *. 200 steps away, taking human life is like taking a bag, even if it is If you put on heavy armor, you can still be knocked to the ground.
When Du Du saw the offensive he launched, it was so unbearable in front of the family army that he suddenly became a little scared, but it would definitely not be possible to fight. Now they have no choice but to make a passage from here and rush out of the customs. If they are blocked here, once the Ming court returns, If you know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to mobilise heavy troops to surround them, then I'm afraid their 100,000 troops will be left here this time.
Of course, Dudu knows better than anyone what these soldiers and horses mean for their slaves. Once they are completely destroyed here, it means that the Qing Dynasty, which they have finally established, may only be destroyed in an instant.
So Du Du thought of this and broke out in a cold sweat. He immediately ordered to quickly gather his men to find a way. Soon, the Manchurian generals, Mongolian generals and Han soldiers he brought were all summoned to Du Du Du. Du asked these people a trick.
These guys are also a little numb now. No one has ever encountered such a way of playing, and no one has ever met such a strong army. After discussing for a long time, some slave generals and Mongolian generals proposed that the Han soldiers are the best at fighting, and this matter needs to be done by the Han soldiers.
As soon as those Han army generals heard about it, they immediately turned the mother of these Jiannu and Mongolian generals to the ground and turned the rice a hundred times. How do you know that I am good at fighting? If I am good at fighting, can I be caught by you to be a dog's leg for you?
But this can only be scolded in their hearts, and they dare not scold it face to face. Although they are reluctant, they have no choice but to agree.
Since things have come to this day, they will die, and if they don't go, they will have to fight.
So these Han army generals who built slaves gathered together and discussed for a while. They really couldn't come up with a good way, so they had to use the old method.
They sent people to quickly search for logs and vehicles, quickly put together some shields or carts on the spot, and put these shields or carts in front of them. Even if they can't stop the shells, they can at least block the bullets.
Du Du took people to toss around for half a day and one night to build all kinds of shields and other things. During the night, in order to exhaust the enemy, they also sent a small number of cavalry to attack the defense line of the family army.
Overnight, the two sides fought happily. In order to prevent the sneak attack of the Jiannu army at night, Yu Jiajun lit a bonfire dozens of steps away from about 150 steps outside the defense line. As long as Jiannu appeared outside their front at night, they immediately fired all at random shots and repelled them.
After working all night, Jiannu took out two or three hundred pairs of shields or carts from the camp at dawn, put them in front of the two armies, and sent thousands of Han troops to attack the defense line of the family army under the cover of the cart.
One day after the fierce battle, Yu Zhenshan still led his troops to repel the attack of Jiannu. In front of the two armies, there was a pile of wreckage of scattered carts or shields.
Dealing with these shields has long been a good play of the Yu family's army. Artillery can directly look at them, and the infantry can use wolf tooth rifles to penetrate them within 100 meters. Even if the can be pushed to the front of the Yu family's army line, as long as it enters 30 steps, the Yu's army still has * to deal with them.
So these horse shields do not play much role for the Yu family army, but can make the soldiers of Jiannu closer to the defense line of the family army!
On this day, Jiannu left more than 1,000 bodies and wounded in front of the army. In addition to these, their biggest gain was to put several rows of arrows on the defense line of the Yu family, which more or less put some pressure on the Yu army.
Looking at such a battle situation, Du Du was angry that his head was smoking. He gritted his teeth and vowed to kill these damn Yu Jiajun, but this oath was just to say that he was made short of temper by Yu Jiajun.
Yu Jiajun has obviously been waiting for them here for a long time. Although the defense line built is not strong, it effectively restrains Jiannu's best cavalry offensive, and Yu Jiajun relies on this simple defense line to cooperate with their sharp firearms, like a fire-breathing hedgehog, making Jiannu, a vicious dog anxious. The law is in the mouth.
Du Du saw that he could not make it during the day, so he turned to the idea at night. At night, it was a natural protection for Jiannu. Even if Yu Jiajun was outside the defense line and raised bonfire lighting, his sight could not be far away, which was relatively beneficial to Jiannu.
So Dudu gathered thousands of soldiers and horses that night launched a high-intensity and large-scale night attack on the defense line of the 7th Brigade.
This night, Jiannu's offensive really put a lot of pressure on the 7th Brigade. In the middle of the night, Jiannu's army quietly touched the 7th Brigade's defense line to gather outside the sight, and then suddenly shouted loudly, and thousands of soldiers and horses immediately became like a tide. Generally, he rushed from the darkness to the defense line of the Yu family army.
