Chapter 10 Bullying

Thanks to the Ting Bone boss for investing 1,000 yuan!

Thank you for the squad leader for giving a reward of 100 yuan!

.....

The cavalry battle against Jinzhou Guards cannot be said to be Eunuch Wei bullying others.

His tactics are not surprising, just the old cannons bombarded the infantry. However, the cannon came from the sea.

The navy has used all its strength to feed, and the amount of medicine consumed in the area as big as a palm is afraid that it will be as many as hundreds of kilograms.

There will definitely be equal rewards for giving.

This time, the navy's artillery was much more effective than the last military exercises conducted in Zhenjiang, and it was not in vain that Eunuch Wei's investment in the navy.

It should be noted that every shot of the navy costs seven or eight taels of silver, while the two three-masted gunships that imitate the Dutch were nearly sixty on one ship, which was really like a cannon, which was like a gold 10,000 taels.

Under the heavy artillery attack, not many cavalrymen from Jinzhou Guard could still be on horseback, and most of them were vacant horses and lying on the ground to avoid cannons.

The army warriors launched a counter-charge in time, of course, the smoke bombs that stopped shelling were lifted out in advance. After seeing the signal on land, Navy General Wang Dali immediately ordered the stop of shelling to avoid accidentally injuring his friendly troops.

The "signal flare" used by the Ming army to identify our enemies on the Korean battlefield has become the standard signal flare for the Royal Army and Navy of the Ming Dynasty. Thanks to the attention of Eunuch Wei, this type of signal flare is combined with the folk firework "Dragon Monkey" and has been carefully improved and produced by the firearm craftsmen of the former Military Art Bureau's Military Arts Supervision. Not only has the altitude of the airflow increased on a large scale, but the color of the fireworks has also been widened, which can ensure that the signal can be clearly identified within six miles of the day, and the recognition range at night can be doubled.

After the navy stopped shelling, the initiative on the battlefield was completely controlled by the army. Under the charge of the Zhutu warriors, more than a hundred remaining Jinzhou guard cavalry almost gave up their resistance. Even the guard commander Zhao Zhong was captured alive and only dozens of cavalry escaped.

Commander Zhao was also unlucky. He could have run away, but the family next to him fell down and hit him. When he got up, two muskets pointed at him, and all the shouts of "The surrendered ones will not die."

Commander Zhao had no choice but to surrender. He thought that when he met Eunuch Wei, he would definitely use the water to wash the Dragon King Temple to explain what he did.

Hearing that he had caught Commander Zhao in front, Eunuch Wei was very excited and jumped onto a chair and wrote a lyric, titled "Catch Commander Zhao in front * Fisherman's Pride".

After the poetic spirit, he immediately ordered the prisoners to be treated with preferential treatment and ordered a small team to be sheltered on the battlefield to treat the wounded. The other teams worked together to launch an attack on Li Ruwu's central army, and it is necessary to chase the remaining brave men.

…………….

If Li Ruwu's mount had not been held tightly by his personal soldiers, he might have run away from the opposite side in a panic.

Zhao Zhong was not sure about his life and death, but two officers ran back, one of them cried and said, "Sir, this battle cannot be fought anymore. The cannons on the opposite side are too powerful, and the brothers can't stand it at all!"

"Sir, go quickly, the eunuchs have arrived!"

Another officer was also scared. He had just walked around the gate of hell. If he hadn't been quick in his hands, he would have been captured long ago.

The defeat of the cavalry directly affected the infantry that was pressing up. Many officers stopped wisely and shouted that their subordinates should quickly retreat with him. They retreated in a team, and soon, the Jinzhou soldiers who were originally rushing forward all turned around and ran back. They looked like they were escaping.

Li Ruwu was also panicked. He did not expect that the battle situation would instantly turn into such a situation. More than 300 cavalrymen fought against hundreds of infantrymen, but they were wiped out. He had never heard of such a battle since he was born.

His eldest brother Li Rusong was buried at that time, and more than 3,000 cavalrymen were fighting against tens of thousands of Tatars, and they were outnumbered and then they fought to die for their country.

Seeing Wei Yin's soldiers rushing towards him with flags raised, but their own soldiers were running back, Li Ruwu's eyes were red in an anxious manner.

He wanted to leave but didn't dare to leave because he didn't know how to tell his father about the defeat. And if his head coach ran away, the remaining two thousand officers and soldiers of the Jinzhou Guard would definitely be put here, and he could not afford the consequences.

In desperation, Li Ruwu suddenly ordered an officer beside him: "Master Wu San, I have not treated you badly on weekdays. I am in trouble today. What should I do?"

The officer called Wu Santa was not a Han person, but a Jurchen in Jianzhou. His head was covered with braids as thin as rat's tail. More than a hundred people were also braids, and these were servants of the Li family.

After hearing Li Ruwu's words, Wu Santa said nothing and rushed forward with the servants around her.

Li Ruwu came to his senses and felt that he had more than 2,000 people, and he might not have been defeated. He forced the spirits and ordered the battalions not to retreat. He quickly organized defense lines based on the terrain, and must fight back the Wei Yan soldiers and horses on the opposite side. Even if they still couldn't beat them, they must force the opponent to stop attacking.

Hu Quan first noticed that some officers and soldiers with braids suddenly appeared in front of him. He was startled, but soon realized that these were Jurchen servants compiled by the Li family.

The Li family has been in Liaodong for decades, and has many military and generals. The Li family especially likes the Jurchens and Mongolian soldiers, so they have taken in a lot of them. Now the governor of Jianzhou, Nurhaci, also worked as a servant in the Li family. It is said that the reason why the Li family accommodated Jurchens and Mongolians as servants was to plan to establish themselves as kings in Korea.

Hu Quan had no idea whether this news was true, but one thing can be confirmed that the Li family did hide a lot of Jurchens and Mongolian soldiers.

Eunuch Wei, who was watching the battle from a distance, also saw a team different from the surrounding Ming army in the Qianli Miles. This team, which was obviously Jurchen soldiers, obviously wanted to resist the attack of the imperial army to prevent the army from defeating. The actions of this Jurchen soldiers had already stopped the retreating Jinzhou soldiers around him. If they were not eliminated, the battle situation might be in a stalemate.

Eunuch Wei obviously didn't want to see this, after all, his subordinates were not as powerful as the other party. So he sent an order to concentrate his strength to eliminate the Jurchen soldiers first, so as to destroy the backbone of Li Ruwu and Jinzhou soldiers and their unrealistic fantasies.

After receiving the order, Ding Xiaogong's troops and Dongcun's troops immediately changed the direction of their attack and surrounded the braided soldiers from both wings.

The army was invincible with its muskets with a range farther than the opponent. The Jurchen soldiers who were highly anticipated by Li Ruwu were also tenacious to resist. They pulled out arrows from the quiver pot behind them and shot at the Royal Army.

At a distance, they cannot aim directly at the opponent, so they can only shoot over the opponent's head, and use the power of the shooting to make the arrow fall from the opponent's body in the upper direction. Because the shooting requires sufficient density and quantity to cause effective damage, but it is obvious that their arrows cannot effectively kill the opponent.

Due to distance, ninety percent of the arrow branches fell into the open space in front of the Imperial Army. Only a few arrow branches fell above the Imperial Army soldiers, but few of them were hit. The only few branches were inserted lightly into the arms or shoulders of the Imperial Army soldiers and could be pulled out at will.

However, a Japanese soldier seemed unlucky, and the falling arrow was shot at his butt, which was a piece of soft flesh that was inserted into a few centimeters. He screamed in pain. The companion behind him quickly waved his knife to cut off the arrow, leaving the arrow in his butt, and then dug it out after the battle.

With the counterattack of the Imperial Army, dense projectiles roared out, and the casualties of the Jurchen soldiers increased rapidly. When they found that their bows and arrows could not resist the opposite side, Wu Santa also looked hesitant on his face.

Li Ruwu was not blind. He saw that Wu Santa could not fulfill his trust, so he was so angry that he used a whip to whip at the nearest personal soldier. The personal soldier who was being whipped did not dare to get angry, so he had to cover his face in grievance and subconsciously moved a few steps to avoid being beaten by the angry seventh young master again.

Wu Santa was still trying hard, but their efforts were finally defeated by the strong firepower of the opponent. After dozens of casualties, Wu Santa had to order to retreat.

As a result, the Jinzhou soldiers who had stopped to organize their defense line on the spot also retreated. Li Ruwu was angry and anxious, but there was no way to stop the retreat.

What's even more annoying is that after taking advantage of the situation to attack, Wei Yin's soldiers kept shouting bewitching slogans such as "Officers and soldiers will not attack officers and soldiers" and "Those who surrender will not die".

Eunuch Wei was very satisfied with the results of the granular gunpowder were finally verified in the actual combat of the army.

Regardless of whether the enemy uses guns or bows, the warriors of the Royal Ming Army can beat them farther than them.

These are the innovation and changes brought to this era by the wisdom of my father-in-law!
