Chapter 94: Why is this guy again?


After the Qing army captured the county seat, they prepared to cross the river non-stop.There was no Ming army sailor on the Fuchun River, only some Ming army boats, and the Qing army did not have to worry about being hit and sunk by the warship, and only needed to prepare some rafts to launch a forced crossing.When the Qing army attacked Fuyang, Duoduo asked people to prepare rafts, and after capturing Fuyang, he demolished all the doors, windows, and beams in the city, and rushed to make them overnight, creating a large number of rafts.In the early morning of the 24th, the sun rose slowly, and the light was sprinkled on both sides of the Fuchun River, and the river was sparkling and vast.On the north shore, on a hill, the Daxu flag fluttered in the wind, all kinds of banners were planted all over the mountain, hunting with the wind, the eight banner soldiers holding spears, all over the hill, the soldiers carried huge horns, full of savage atmosphere, looking murderous.Duoduo stood on the top of the hill, with a brass clairvoyant mirror, scanned the opposite bank, saw the earthen wall, the Ming army's wide-eaves dish helmet, red cherry blossoms, and helmet flags were moving behind the earthen wall, and then put down the clairglass, scanned the foot of the hill, the Qing army's cannons were lined up in turn, and the Qing army wearing various colors of armor and pointed iron helmets boarded the boats and rafts.In the Qing military camp on the north bank, the Qing soldiers formed several streams of people to gather on the shore, the heads of silkworms moved, the spears were dense like forests, the flags were like clouds, and the army was magnificent.Duoduo glanced at the thin defense line of the Ming army, and then saw the large number of Eight Banner soldiers, and suddenly laughed.Although this trip to the south made Duoduo feel that there were more barbarians who were not afraid of death, he looked at the invincible Eight Banners soldiers, and only felt that the barbarians were not afraid of death.Duoduo looked at the magnificent battlefield and couldn't help but say coldly, "After the Fuchun River today, this king will be able to sweep through eastern Zhejiang and take Fujian directly." ”At this time, Tu Lai Yu, who was looking at the side, reported: "Lord Wang, the Han army is playing the flag with a white flag, and they are ready." ”After hearing this, Duoduo looked towards the riverside, and saw that a group of Eight Banners had boarded the raft, his eyes narrowed, and he waved his hand suddenly, and the huge horn sounded, "Order Shen Zhixiang to cross the river." ”On the south bank of the Fuchun River, Zhang Mingzhen stood with Wu Zhaosheng and others, looking at the Qing army on the north bank, knowing that they were about to launch a forced crossing."

Dangdangdang~" There was a sudden rush of alarm bells on the Ming army front, and the bell seemed frightened and hurried, it was the Ming army on the watchtower, and found that the Qing army had begun to cross the river.On the river, nearly 100 rafts and boats loaded with soldiers of the Eight Banners rushed towards the south bank.Each raft was crowded with Eight Bannermen, and some of the small boats had a Franc cannon on the bow.The ruler of Manchuria, known as the world's best cavalry and archery, is actually pure nonsense, the Qing army actually attached great importance to firearms in the early days, not only the Hongyi cannon was better than the Ming Dynasty, but even the quality of the musket also surpassed the Ming army.Kong Youde once said to Huang Taiji proudly: "The slaves have tens of thousands of armor soldiers, cannons, and firearms.With this weapon, and the Great Khan work together, land and water go hand in hand, like a bamboo, who in the world dares to be the enemy of the Khan?

”After Kong Youde surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army's firearms developed rapidly, and by the time of the Songjin War in 1642, the number of artillery of the Qing army had come from behind, surpassing the Ming army, and Hong Chengchou was defeated, and Zu Dashou and others also descended to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing army had hundreds of large and small artillery, nearly 10,000 arquebuses, so that the Ming Dynasty had no longer firearms.In addition to having a large number of firearms, the Qing army also surpassed the decaying Ming Dynasty in terms of firearms manufacturing because of the early establishment of its regime and strict laws, and the quality of the firearms produced was also better than that of the Ming army.Li Yutian, the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, said bitterly at that time: "The chieftain is attacked by a hundred cannons, even if the iron wall and copper wall are difficult to protect; In terms of material strength, the chief cast a hundred cannons and more than enough, I cast ten cannons and was powerless, the power of the slaves in the past was not a large county in China, and every battle was still evenly matched and the enemy was also, and now the cannons are ten times more than my artifact. ”At the beginning of the Qing army's entry into the customs, the army was equipped with a large number of firearms, but with the unification of the world, the goal of the Manchu rulers was achieved, and they did not want the Han people to think that the Manchus relied on the firearms of the Han people to win the world, so they began to advocate mounted archery.However, after the Qing army entered the customs, every time a siege operation was carried out, the first reaction of the Qing generals was often to transfer the "Western magic cannon".In the decisive Battle of Tongguan in 1644, the Qing army was not in a hurry to attack, but waited for the arrival of artillery.On the ninth day of the first month, the red-coated artillery army arrived", and the Qing army conquered Tongguan in one fell swoop, forcing the Dashun army to withdraw from the northwest and finally be defeated.After that, when the Qing army went down to the south of the Yangtze River, when it encountered stubborn resistance from the anti-Qing army and civilians in Yangzhou, Jiangyin and other places, it also used artillery to collapse the city wall and then capture the city.At this time, the Qing army's ships and rafts sailed undulating on the river, and the artillery on the small boat, as soon as they crossed the center of the river, began to bombard the south bank, and the Qing army's artillery array on the north bank also began to roar.Zhang Mingzhen and Wu Zhaosheng stood behind an earthen wall built by the Ming army on the river beach, the wall was full of soldiers, and the Qing artillery smashed on the earthen wall, and the earth was splashed.At this time, on the earthen wall, the Ming artillery began to fire back, and in the roaring sound of cannons, iron bullets smashed into the river, splashing up a column of water more than a zhang high, and the river water was splashed into the sky, and then fell, instantly drenching the Qing army on the ship.For a time, on both sides of the Fuchun River, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, iron bullets flew indiscriminately, the Ming artillery shells hit the small boat of the Qing army, the ship was splashed with broken wood, the Qing army on the boat fell into a piece, the corpse fell into the river, and the river was dyed red.After all, there were not many artillery pieces of the Ming army, so they could not prevent the Qing ships and rafts from docking, and soon the Qing boats rushed to the river beach.Shen Zhixiang, the general of the Eight Banners, immediately raised his sword, picked up his shield, and roared: "Brothers, kill the barbarians and crush them!"

”More than 1,000 Qing army pioneers jumped into the water from their boats, wading waist-high rivers, and trekking to the shore with shields.Seeing this, Zhang Mingzhen's expression was solemn, and he knew that if the Qing army was allowed to occupy the beachhead, the Qing army would continue to cross the river in the future, and the river defense would be over.Zhang Mingzhen hurriedly waved his hand and ordered, "Fire hand, put it!"

”More than 1,000 firecrackers on the earthen wall raised their muskets and fired in unison, knocking down the Qing army that rushed to the front with the sound of "bang, bang, bang".The Qing army kept falling into the water, the corpses were floating on the shore, and the muddy river water showed a pool of red.The follow-up Qing army, holding the shield, rushed to the shore, and the musketeers immediately formed a formation to shoot, and the sword and shield soldiers rushed towards the earthen wall.Seeing this, Zhang Mingzhen immediately said urgently: "General Wu, this commander commands archers, gunners, and artillery to suppress the Qing army to land, and you lead the headquarters to attack and drive the Qing army ashore into the river." ”Wu Zhaosheng only felt that no one was more unlucky than him, he was robbed of grain and grass by the righteous army in Suzhou, lost Nikan, anyway, he returned to the Ming Dynasty, and immediately suffered another defeat, and he still needed to fight against the fierce Eight Banners.If he could, a few days ago, he would not have been killed anyway, but now he has no choice, he will definitely die miserably in the hands of the Qing army, he can only pull out his sword and roar loudly, "Brothers, kill with me!"

”Nearly 3,000 soldiers jumped over the earthen wall and rushed out, hitting the Eight Banners soldiers who had just landed head-on, and the two sides fought together in an instant, swords and spears struck each other, and flesh and blood flew over.Wu Zhaosheng slashed the Qing soldiers in front of him with a knife, blocking the Qing army from rushing to the earthen wall, Zhang Mingzhen commanded bows and arrows, bird guns, and took the opportunity to shoot the Qing army crowded on the river beach, blocking the Qing army's offensive for a while.However, before the Ming army could breathe a sigh of relief, a row of rafts rushed to the shore and jumped down from the top of a group of fierce real Manchurian heavy infantry troops, and the Qing troops on the shore consciously made way for them to open a passage, and the Manchurian heavy steps marched forward in formation, waving their knives and slashing at the Ming soldiers who were blocking.Zhang Mingzhen knew that in addition to cavalry archery, the best tactics of the Eight Banners were actually Manchurian infantry battles, so he hurriedly ordered bows and arrows and muskets to shoot, and the arrows were inserted into the Manchurian soldiers, but the Manchurian soldiers continued to advance like no one."

Shoot again!"

Zhang Mingzhen shouted urgently."

Bang bang bang" the musketeers fired, and the projectiles hit the Manchurians back a step, but then they stepped forward again.Wu Zhaosheng's troops, who were blocking the Qing army on the river beach, saw that the Manchurian soldiers could not be killed with muskets, and their bodies were full of arrows, and they still advanced forward, and their hearts suddenly fell into great panic."

Kill!"

Seeing this, Wu Zhaosheng roared angrily and commanded the Ming soldiers to charge.The Ming soldiers roared, venting their fears, and stabbed with spears, but they failed to stab the Manchurian soldiers to death, and the Manchurian soldiers fiercely waved their knives to cut off their spears, and with a sweep of their swords, they cut the Ming soldiers to the ground.In an instant, the Ming army was frightened, and the front began to loosen, Wu Zhaosheng said in his heart: "It's over!"

”On the top of the hill on the north bank, Duoduo received the clairvoyant mirror, there was no suspense, the Qing army was about to break through the river defense, he waved his hand and said: "Order the army, prepare the whole army to cross the river!"

”After speaking, Duoduo was about to leave the mountain, but at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the south bank, and a white light burst out, and several Manchurians were blown away.Duoduo's expression changed, and after standing still, he picked up the clairvoyant mirror to watch, only to see the rear of the Ming army's defense line, and suddenly there was a low horn sound, the Ming army of the brigade appeared all over the mountains, countless flags were displayed in the mountains and forests, and the Fang Guo'an Department advanced lightly and hurriedly, and killed the south bank of the Fuchun River at the most critical moment.Duoduo saw that he was the first to be alone, riding a horse and jumping over the earthen wall, and throwing an object in his hand from time to time, it was a ball of white light that burst out, blowing up the Qing army, Duoduo suddenly turned hideous, almost vomited blood, and shouted angrily: "Why is it him again!"
