Buried alive in the Qing Dynasty

Page 131

For example, the old slave Sun Sike, who was worthless after the pacification of the San Francisco, and the slave Jin Guozheng, a slave named Tianfangjiao, both really loved the Qing Dynasty and spent their own money to build guns to defend the court.

However, in the Yongzheng Dynasty, it was not allowed for the slaves who really loved the Qing Dynasty to pay for the imperial court out of their own pockets!Yongzheng didn't have such a good face, and he couldn't rub the sand in his eyes...

Later, the artisans below have been out of work, and the soldiers have no guns to play with, and gradually they will not.

It's a pity that the gunsmiths and artillerymen in the Qing Dynasty are still very good at casting and firing cannons, so at the order of Zhuobutai, more than a hundred general cannons, mother-child cannons and general Weiyuan cannons lined up in front of the formation fired together. .

For a while, there was rumble of cannons in front of the Qing army, and the smoke was billowing!

However, the armored hammer-throwing artillery commanded by Wu Shicong did not stop advancing because of the Qing army's artillery fire, but continued to move forward against the Qing army's shelling, but the cavalry who were originally riding on horseback dismounted to reduce the chance of being shot. probability.

In fact, these artillery guns of the Qing army were not very effective against armored shield vehicles.Their general guns are only three to four hundred catties of light guns, and the solid bullets they fire are only about one catty.Although it is enough to smash the shield car, but because the shooting accuracy is relatively poor, it will not be able to hit it at a distance.

As for General Weiyuan's cannon, it is a mortar, and now it is fired with solid bullets...just to scare people.

The only thing that might threaten the armored shield vehicle is the slender barrel cannon!

This kind of artillery is said to be a cannon, but it is actually a large gun. When firing solid lead bullets, because the tube is long and the lead bullets are also hit, the accuracy is good.At a distance of more than 100 to [-] steps, it is relatively easy to hit those armored shield vehicles.

But now, those shield vehicles are still far away...

At the same time, more than a hundred general cannons weighing more than a thousand catties in Wu Sangui's army also roared!

These general guns weighing more than [-] catties all fired stone bullets weighing three to four catties, and their firepower was much stronger than that of the Qing army's cannons.Moreover, the targets they shot were not slowly moving vehicles, let alone cannons lined up in front of the Qing army's formation, but the Qing army's infantry that had just been set up.

One after another, stone bullets weighing three to four catties roared through the air, and hit the Green Battalion soldiers who were "servants", "coated" and "will be coated" heavily—— Even if the Green Battalion soldiers become slaves, they are lower than the coated slave soldiers and the Eight Banners soldiers!

So they have to go first when it comes to being shot!

However, the Qing master still prepared "anti-gun shield vehicles" for the green camp slave soldiers-ordinary shield vehicles, placed in front of the "green slaves", and equipped with tiger-head shields for the green camp soldiers.

In this way, most of the green slaves can't see that Wu Jun's cannon is firing... If they can't see it, of course they don't need to be afraid.

And even if you are afraid, you can only stand up to the bombardment now!

Because the coated slave soldiers and the Eight Banners soldiers are now pressing behind them, whoever dares to take half a step back will be shot and killed!

Fortunately, the stone bullets used by Wu Jun will not bounce back after they hit the ground, but will only turn into scattered gravel. It sounded on the battlefield.

But the "green minions" can still withstand, because the coated minions and Eight Banners minions behind are still very safe.As long as the second and first masters are fine, the slaves in the green camp have nothing to complain about... just bear it!

And just when these "green slaves" felt that the casualties were tolerable, there was a piercing suona sound in front of them.Then the chants of "Long live the Great President..." came to an abrupt end.

Some green battalion soldiers looked forward through the gaps between the shield vehicles, and found that the row of shiny "iron shield vehicles" had stopped advancing at some point... It was about [-] steps away!

Is something bad going to happen?

As soon as these "green slaves" thought of this, there was a sudden roar from behind the row of iron shield vehicles, and then dozens of hundreds of black spots were seen flying into the air at an extremely fast speed!

Chapter 303 Capture Kang Mazi alive and overthrow the Qing Dynasty (9)

When the thunder hammer falls, the servant's dream is shattered!

Following a few loud noises, thick smoke suddenly rose from the dense queue of green camp slave soldiers.These green battalion soldiers took the battalion as a unit and formed a square formation with dense muskets, bows and arrows in front, and swords and spears in the back.Some of the black dots that flew out from behind the "armored shield vehicles" landed on the right wing of the Qing army, among several green battalion phalanxes near the Jianyang River.

All I saw was that the puff of smoke dissipated, and there were gaps in the dense phalanx below.

In the gap, there are all the dead people who were blown up and the wounded who are rolling, screaming, and covered in blood.

In this round of mortar salvo, a total of hundreds of super-caliber sky thunder hammers were fired, although less than twenty hit several Qing army phalanxes and exploded.But the thunder hammers fired by these cannons are not so powerful, they are all big guys!Each one is filled with eight taels of high-quality sugar medicine and almost the same amount of copper.

Once the explosion is fierce, it will be able to release a large number of green camp slave soldiers!

This is a tragedy in the world. I was a slave with all my heart, but the slave was not made, and my life was lost.

And...the Qing Dynasty didn't seem to have the rules of gifting slaves or dressing slaves!

I have never heard of any famous minister of the Qing Dynasty who gave a coat slave as a posthumous gift after his death... let alone these small slaves from the green camp.

This is really a thunder, the father and mother are raised for nothing, the dreams of the slaves are broken, and the traitors are so miserable!

And the several green camp slave army arrays that were originally arranged in a fairly neat manner suddenly became a mess, and the green camp traitors also knew that something was wrong, and cried out one after another.

"Tianlei! It's Tianlei!"

"Heavenly Thunder is coming, hurry up and hide!"

"Hide, hide...you're dead!"

Shouting to hide quickly, but the actual action is like headless chickens bumping around.Hiding forward seems to be sending you to death, but hiding back is like sending you to death no matter how many knives you have in the hands of the coated slave soldiers. Very sharp!

So they returned to chaos, but still no one dared to escape!

On the opposite side, Wu Shicong, who commanded the armored hammer-throwing soldiers, found that the Qing soldiers who had been "hammered" by him for a round did not escape, and became angry. He immediately ordered: "Ten more rounds... Mom, please, I will do it!" I don’t believe it, you green battalion soldiers who are not even worthy of dog slaves are so brave!”

"Order!"

His guards yelled loudly, and several of them galloped off to continue delivering orders.

And Wu Shicong did not supervise the firing of artillery at the artillery formation, but led the remaining soldiers to patrol in a large hollow phalanx of hammer-throwing soldiers-he led a total of more than 5000 armored hammer-throwing artillery.Of course, the front that this number of troops can deploy is not very wide, that is, the width of more than a hundred armored shield vehicles lined up (there is still some gap between the two vehicles), which is about a hundred paces.

Compared with the front of the Qing army, this width is only a small section.Therefore, Wu Shicong did not dare to attack the front of the Qing army, otherwise he would be surrounded by the Qing army.The tactic he adopted was to attack the right flank of the Qing army along the Jianyang River.Immediately after the troops pressed up, a large hollow square formed.Prepare to meet the counterattack of the Qing army!

This large hollow phalanx and the small phalanx composed of 48 hammer throwers are the same in principle.They all use pikemen and sword soldiers to form the "array wall", then put the musketeers and archers on the second line, and put the hammer throwers on the third line.

The difference is that one of the four "sides" that make up this phalanx is a strong man with armored shield cars and carts.

Those strong men were all soldiers of the Wu army. After pushing the cart into place, they took out broadswords, spears, shields, muskets, bows and arrows, and grenade hammers from the cart to arm themselves.Then start defense according to the shield car!

In addition, in the middle of this hollow phalanx, Wu Shicong also placed cavalry and more than a hundred hammer-throwing cannons—those carriages pulled the hammer-throwing cannons and the "big hammer" fired by the cannons.

According to President Wu's plan, the "big hammers" fired by the hammer-throwing cannons were actually used to "force the enemy to attack".Based on old man Wu's understanding of the Qing soldiers, these slave soldiers of the Qing Dynasty would not collapse after being bombed by the "big hammer", and they should fight before they die.

Even if those green battalion soldiers are willing to lie down and die equally, the coated slaves and Eight Banners soldiers behind the formation will not agree... because if the green battalion soldiers don't go to die, it will be the turn of the coated slaves. If the coated slaves suffer heavy casualties, Then the Eight Banners soldiers will have to go.

So now Wu Shicong must ensure that the phalanx formed by his subordinates is strong enough!

"Be careful, Qinggou's hammer is coming!"

Wu Shicong was checking everywhere, when one of his personal soldiers suddenly roared, and then several stinky strong men surrounded him with open arms, as if they wanted to use their flesh and blood to help him as a thunderbolt.

Loyalty is faithfulness, but does that work?

Just as Wu Shicong wanted to push away these soldiers, there was a loud "boom"!

The General Weiyuan Cannon of the Qing soldiers had already bombarded the bigger sugar gunpowder bombs, and the reaction was quite fast, and the shots were quite accurate.

In the first round of shelling, a shell hit the formation where Wu Shicong was located, and it exploded after landing!

This time, many people in the Wu family's army will also be killed and injured!

The Qing army's sugar gunpowder blooming ammunition has much more charge than Wu Jun's blooming hammer.Although the composition of the sugar medicine inside is not very correct, but because the cast iron shell and iron nails themselves will produce rust, and the bumps during transportation shattered the sugar medicine in the bullet case, making the sugar medicine mix with a large amount of rust.This is equivalent to adding a sufficient amount of catalyst to make the sugar medicine burn extremely violently after being ignited.

As soon as the hammer came down, it was like the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. It immediately knocked down the surrounding Wu family soldiers!

Although Wu Shicong was not hit by shrapnel, he was "blown down" by a gust of hot wind, and was held down tightly by several strong men, under his body.

The shelling from both sides is still going on, you come and go and throw bombs on the other side's head.

The firepower is of course Wu Junmeng. Their hammer-throwing guns use super-caliber bullets, which are small shells and large shells, so there are many artillery pieces, and of course there are many shells.In the blink of an eye, thousands of super-caliber bullets were shot out, causing heavy casualties to several phalanxes on the right wing of the Qing army.One of them was actually broken.However, I still didn’t dare to bump into the knife of the baker’s servant, but “jumped into the river” very cleverly... Hundreds of people jumped into Jianyang Water, but they didn’t dare to go to the center of the river, but in the shallow water near the river beach standing here.

Now it's October in the lunar calendar, and the weather in Hubei is already cold!

Although the Qing army's General Weiyuan had few guns and not much ammunition, their shells couldn't stand up to their size, and when they exploded, the scene was extremely spectacular and very refreshing.

Just when Wu Shicong was thinking of pushing away those strong men and standing up by himself, there was another loud noise like thunder above his head and heart.

This time it was a flowering bomb from the Qing army that exploded above Wu Shicong's head, but the location of the explosion was a bit high, so the shrapnel could not hit the Wu army below.But this scene is still very bluffing. It seems that a huge fire ball appeared out of thin air on the top of the Wu family army's hollow phalanx, trying to engulf all the Wu family officers and soldiers below.

"Long live the Qing Dynasty..."

Although no one in the Wu family's army was really engulfed by the raging fire, the Qing army on the opposite side didn't know it, so they still cheered earth-shatteringly.

Zhuobutai, who was supervising the battle, felt that the opportunity was rare...and he didn't have a lot of explosive bombs, so he couldn't compete with Wu Jun on the opposite side to consume them!

So Zhuobutai made a decisive decision and gave a loud order: "Beat the drums and march...the right-wing green battalion soldiers and the coated slave army go together and defeat the rebel phalanx!"

"Whoo!"

After a while of response, a row of war drums placed under Wangdou was beating loudly, and soon the green battalion soldiers and coated slave soldiers on the right wing of the Qing army received orders to attack.

And just when the Green Battalion soldiers and the coated slave soldiers on the right wing of the Qing army were being driven forward by the Eight Banners soldiers behind, thousands of guard cavalry from the coated slave army and hundreds of imperial guards wearing yellow jackets suddenly appeared On the north bank of Jianyang River, there appeared with them the Zhenghuanglong Banner, which symbolized the Qing emperor.

Kangxi came and appeared on the right side of the battlefield!

The Qing army on the battlefield suddenly boiled.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

Chapter 304 Capture Kang Mazi alive and overthrow the Qing Dynasty (10)

This is to win?

When Emperor Kangxi heard the shouts like a tsunami, and saw a rebel phalanx on the other side of the Jianyang River was almost engulfed by the flames, he immediately had the illusion that victory was in sight.

In fact, he appeared on the north bank of Jianyang River a little bit... He was stuck at the point when the Qing army launched the first wave of attack.

The first wave of attack is at the moment of vigorous effort. If you can't beat it, you will decline again, and you will be exhausted.

So Kangxi was stuck on this point, to boost the morale of the people below to the highest level, and then rush forward like a flood, completely submerging Wu Sangui's men.

When he came here, he had already heard that Zhuobutai lost in the first battle this morning. Although the loss was not big, it was not a good sign after all.And on the way here, I also learned that Wu Sangui dispatched some kind of "armored hammer-throwing soldiers", which were so powerful that they pressed Zhuobutai's right wing and hammered.So I am very worried!

Unexpectedly, when he rushed to the battlefield anxiously, he saw the gratifying scene of the high morale of the Qing soldiers and the Wu rebels being suppressed by the fire.

When Kangxi saw this scene, he was ashamed and joyful at first, and then wept with joy!

Daqing is going to win, and he Aixinjueluo Xuanye is finally going to win!

"Come here, bring the drums!" Emperor Kangxi said loudly, "I want to personally beat the drums to cheer for the good servants of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

Mingzhu Mingzhongtang, who understands Emperor Kangxi’s heart best, immediately brought a drum to Kangxi...it is the "drum" that "Yuyang Drums come agitating", this is a kind of cavalry, and it can be placed on the back of a horse. On the snare drum.However, Mingzhu didn't put the drum on the back of Emperor Kangxi's dragon colt, but held it and stood beside Kangxi himself.

Kangxi, on the other hand, received two drum hammers from a royal guard, and then began to beat them himself.

"Father, Xuan Ye is here!"

Wu Yingqi had already discovered Emperor Kangxi at this time, and his voice trembled with excitement.

Capture Kangxi... It seems that Li Shimin captured many enemy emperors back then, so he made such a great achievement!

Wu Yingqi was shaking at the thought of this!

Wu Sangui also saw his son's performance, of course he hoped that his son could achieve this great achievement, so he said loudly: "The country is precious, my son!"

Wu Sangui's godson Wu Guogui immediately responded, "The child is here!"

Wu Sangui ordered: "You and Ma Bao each lead a thousand cavalry, prepare fire mines, and wait for the order of the president..."

"My child has orders!" Wu Guogui was overjoyed.

Wu Sangui took another look at his second son Ying Qi, who seemed a bit disappointed, "Ying Qi, you go to the right wing right away, and command the right wing troops to pounce on the Qing captives' left wing... In any case, their left wing must be restrained, and they must not be allowed to support the right wing. .

Remember, the life and death of my family is in this battle, we can only win, not lose! "

"Decree!" Wu Yingqi also cheered up, loudly accepted the general order, and then galloped to the right wing to supervise the battle.

Wu Sangui then said to his son-in-law Hu Guozhu: "Guozhu, Shi Cong has already forced the right wing of the Qing prisoner out! Now it's up to you...you let Shi Cong's people stand up for a while, and wait until the Qing prison is exhausted. If we hit it, we must push back their right wing no matter what, and open the passage leading to Jianyang Bridge."

"President, don't worry, son-in-law understands!" Hu Zhuguo patted his chest with excitement!

As long as the right wing of the Qing army is forced back, the Jianyang Bridge leading to the opposite bank of the Jianyang River will be exposed.

As soon as Wu Guogui and Ma Bao's cavalry crossed the bridge... Kang Mazi would be dead!

"Okay!" Wu Sangui waved his hand, "Go, fight hard!"

"Order!"

Wu Guogui and Hu Zhuguo all shouted orders, and then went to dispatch troops and generals.

At this time, Wu Sangui said to the generals who were eager to try: "Let's go, follow the president to make a show... and let Xiao Mazi know the military power of the president!"

……

As soon as Tianlei's rumbling sound stopped, Wu Shizheng jumped up, and ruthlessly kicked those soldiers who were protecting him with their bodies a few times, "Damn it, I'm about to crush me to death!"

Although this Mr. Wu was born in the family of a vassal, he is a rough man, and he is rough and rough when talking to a group of Qiu Ba.But scolding is scolding, the benefits that should be given to the people below are unambiguous at all, so he is very popular in the army.

He spat a few mouthfuls of soil foam, walked quickly a few steps, jumped onto a shield cart, leaned on the wooden shield nailed with iron plates, rubbed his eyes and looked ahead.Just now, a lot of flowering bombs from the Qing army exploded around the formation, and some of them fell into the square where Wu Shicong was... and killed and wounded many soldiers of the Wu family army.And I don't know what formula the Qing army's sugar medicine is made of?There was a lot of gunpowder smoke!The battlefield was filled with smoke, so I couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly.

However, the shouts of the Qing army came one after another!
