Chapter 274 Extraordinary Actions and Extraordinary Means During the battle, Quan Xu found that a regiment of 200 people was really difficult to deploy as a tactical unit.The Ming Dynasty used 1,000 people as the basic tactical unit, and there is still a certain amount of truth.But again, artillery units need to be reformed.However, for now, we still have to fight the battle in front of us.......Just as the Houjin cavalry began to speed up, ninety-six artillery pieces began to fire rapidly, and one after another shells smashed into the Houjin cavalry formation as if they didn't need money.One by one, the shells fell in the Houjin cavalry formation, blowing up the Houjin cavalry and turning them on their backs.However, the courage of these Houjin cavalry is worthy of recognition, and they did not retreat, but continued to attack.All the Houjin cavalry actually knew that there was nothing terrible about artillery, because the rate of fire was too slow, as long as they rushed up, the Ming artillery would be slaughtered by them.The Houjin cavalry gradually accelerated, as the Houjin cavalry got closer and closer to the front of the whole army, the hit rate of the artillery became higher and higher, and more importantly, when the artillery fired solid shells, the closer the distance, the lower the attenuation of the air resistance to the shells, and the greater the kinetic energy of the shells.When the three Niu Lu, who served as the tentative attackers, were less than a mile away from the whole family army, they went through three consecutive rounds of attacks by 96 artillery pieces, and at this time, the three Niu Lu of the Houjin army only had nearly half of the soldiers and horses left.Yue Tuo looked at this scene dumbfounded: "The Southern Barbarian's artillery is so powerful?
”"Master, you see, they are all 8,000 jin or 10,000 jin heavy artillery, of course they are powerful!"
In fact, the whole family army really doesn't have such a heavy artillery, otherwise, let alone a five-man cannon and an artillery crew, I'm afraid it will be difficult for fifty people, and 10,000 catties is five tons, which is too heavy for the infantry.The smooth road surface is fine, once you encounter a potholed road, there is no way to move forward at all.The biggest feature of the artillery of the whole family army is that it is light, even if it is a 105 field artillery, at most four people can stand and walk, of course, when pushing and pulling, two can do it.It's just that due to the quality of the steel, the pressure resistance of the gun chamber is higher, so there is more gunpowder, which gives the Houjin army a feeling that the Ming army is heavy artillery.Houjin is also human, they can obviously grit their teeth and attack, as long as they rush up, they can wantonly slash and kill the soldiers of the whole family army.It's a pity that this mile of land, that is, only 500 steps, has become an insurmountable moat for the Houjin cavalry.The more than 400 surviving cavalrymen turned their horses and rushed towards the left and right flanks in front of the whole army!"
Want to run?"
Liu Quan commanded the artillery: "Adjust the angle and fight......
Advance amount!
”"Boom, boom......, boom" In the roar of the last round of artillery, the Houjin cavalry finally escaped out of the range of the artillery in embarrassment, of course, it was not really out of range, Quan Xu was also ready to yin the other party.At this time, most of the Houjin cavalry, including Yue Tuo, were within the limit range of the 105 field artillery.Although Yue Tuo is the banner master of the red flag, he actually only has twenty-six Niu Lu, but nominally twenty-six Niu Lu, but in just three days, he lost five Niu Lu, which is enough for him to suffer.Although hundreds of artillery pieces are worth millions of taels of silver, this fat is fat enough, but he has already seen that it is not easy to swallow this fat, and the key is that the loss will not be light."
Ilzhan, Surxiu, Khana!"
Three majestic cavalrymen knelt in front of Yue Tuo: "Lord Belle!
”"You three take your people, hurry up and grab a bunch of slaves!"
Yue Tuo naturally remembered how Huang Taiji broke the camp of Man Gui and Qin Chengzu on the bank of the Tang River, and in order to reduce his losses, he had to do the same.With Yue Tuo's order, nearly 1,000 horsemen in the Houjin cavalry formation broke out of the formation and rushed towards the east, west, and southwest respectively."
Hey, master, why don't these Tartars fight!"
Liu Quan asked puzzled."
How could they not fight, they just didn't want to fight at our pace!"
Quan Xu's face was gloomy: "If my expectations are correct, they must have gone to the surrounding area to arrest the people, and they are ready to let the people rush into battle!"
”"So what do we do?""
Cold salad!"
Quan Xu looked at Ma Yinghu and said, "Ma Yinghu, take your people, go to the front, and cut off all the heads of the Tartars!"
”If you don't want to fight, Lao Tzu will force you to fight!
Although the Houjin cavalry took advantage of the retreat to take away a lot of corpses, there were still some corpses lying on the ground on the battlefield.These heads are also money."
Yes!"
Ma Yinghu led the infantry of the first regiment out of the formation and walked towards the corpses on the battlefield, whether it was a corpse or a pretending corpse, Quan Xu didn't think about keeping a living mouth."
Puff, puff......"
The infantry of the whole family army held a broken saber in one hand and carried a large bamboo basket on their backs, as if harvesting crops, picking corpses and cutting off heads on the battlefield.Yue Tuo looked at this scene and was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.He is a smart person, and he knows that Quanxu is deliberately luring him to attack, but can he not attack?
Of course you can, but morale will drop dramatically.No matter which army it is, it is strange that the enemy will not go crazy when they watch the enemy unscrupulously chop off the heads of their comrades.That's what Quan Xu wants, and it's a lot.There are many real men in the Jurchens, and in just one pillar of incense, seven or eight Niu Lu Ezhen have hugged their fists and begged for battle.Yue Tuo's face turned blue with anger, and he could only be forced to agree.Seven or eight hundred horsemen crossed the formation and rushed towards Ma Yinghu's headquarters.However, it didn't work."
Fire, fire!""
Boom, boom, boom......, boom" more than 100 shells smashed over, and more than 100 shells set off bursts of blood in the Houjin cavalry formation, smashing the Houjin cavalry people on their backs.At this moment, cheers rang out from the direction of the rear camp.Lei Shisheng led his troops to the rear camp.The whole family army watched their comrades arrive, and their morale was high.This attack of the Houjin cavalry ended up being anticlimactic, but there were more than a hundred more corpses.It didn't take long for Lu Xiangsheng and Hou Sui to lead a large army to arrive.At this time, Lu Xiangsheng looked at the corpses left on the battlefield in the distance, there were six or seven hundred.In order to guide Hou Sui, the rich man, Quan Xu to buy a cannon, he didn't care who Hou Sui bought the cannon for, he said excitedly: "Lord Hou, come and see, how is my cannon, it's amazing!"
”Since Hou Sui did not pay the money, the two sides only discussed an intention to buy, and the artillery was not delivered.Quan Xu was actually not in a hurry, he pointed to the corpses of the Houjin cavalry in the distance, as well as the soldiers who were cutting off their heads and said: "This wave of heads, Lord Hou, do you want it, I can count you cheaper!"
”Now the most embarrassing thing is Yue Tuo.With the arrival of the Tianxiong Army, the so-called thousands of people in the city, 10,000 people in the wilderness, as long as the number of people exceeds 10,000, it will be boundless.What else can Yue Tuo do?
Offensive?
Not sure to hit down.Retreating, unwilling, in just half an hour, seven or eight hundred subordinates were thrown down, and the human head was not a leek, and it would not grow again if it was cut off.Yue Tuo suddenly remembered that there was a Shanxi army in that small village, they had few artillery, but there were quite a few people, as long as they were captured, they could drive these surrendered troops to attack this Tianxiong army.Under Yue Tuo's orders, the Houjin cavalry slowly retreated."
What's wrong?"
Hou Sui asked strangely."
Bullying the soft and afraid of the hard!"
Quan Xu smiled disappreciatively: "In the northeast seven or eight miles of land, Shanxi Governor Geng is with thousands of soldiers and horses, but I'm afraid that Houjin will go to find trouble with them!"
”"Lei Shisheng, Li Chongzhen, Yang Shien!""
The last general!"
Lu Xiangsheng said: "Order all the soldiers and horses, and go with this mansion to rescue Governor Geng!"
”"How can this be without me!"
Quan Xu smiled: "Let's be together!"
”"Aren't you tired of fighting for so long and annihilating seven or eight hundred people?"
Quan Xu smiled: "Brothers, are you tired?
”"Not tired!"
The cheers of the whole family army shook the sky.As for the head on the battlefield, he didn't dare to compete with Quan Xu now.Quan Xu and Lu Xiangsheng rode their horses together: "Dongsheng, you have a good cannon!"
”"Lord Lu wants it too?""
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I want it, but I can't afford it!"
The in-depth exchanges between Lu Xiangsheng and Hou Sui were very harmonious, and Hou Xie told Lu Xiangsheng that he would definitely support Lu Xiangsheng to become a famous military envoy.This Tianxiong army will not be disbanded again, and will become the official establishment of the Ming Dynasty, with a salary of 15,000 men.In this way, Lu Xiangsheng had to pay attention to the artillery that had repeatedly performed miraculous feats in the hands of Quan Xu.Quan Xu said disappreciably: "Actually, it's very simple, Lord Lu, you go back to the Daimyo's Mansion, find a random gentry to raid the house, sell his land to me, and the money to buy artillery will be there!"
”Lu Xiangsheng said with a straight face: "What are you talking about!"
”"I'm telling the truth!"
Quan Xu smiled: "Don't dare to say anything else, just take the Zhang family and the Liu family as an example, is it wrong to copy their homes?"
Lord Lu, how many people were forced to die by the two of them in the Daimyo Mansion?
The two of them have millions of acres of fertile land openly and secretly, right?
And I don't have to pay taxes, if you give me these fields, I can pay an extra 100,000 stone of grain to the Daimyo's Mansion every year!"
”Lu Xiangsheng glared at Quan Xu: "You......
More and more ......"
"If you want to do things, you can't do it without money, you just rely on the support of the imperial court, but the imperial court has no money, and the treasury is so empty that you can run mice, this is all about to be a month, Lord Lu's money is still owed, right?"
”Quan Xu looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said with a serious face: "If you have to do extraordinary things in extraordinary times, you can't follow the rules!"
”Lu Xiangsheng was really a little moved at that moment.However, he knew that no matter whether the Liu family or the Zhang family was moved, it was not easy to move, and the two of them had an intricate network of relationships in Beijing or in the local area.However, Quan Xu also has a point.The court is poor, but there is no money to support soldiers, what can he do?
With a group of young people, do you want to fight with your life?
Obviously there are artillery, why not use it?"
This matter is out of your mouth and into my ears, and you must not mention it to anyone in the future!"
Lu Xiangsheng stared at Quan Xu: "If you don't secret, you will lose your ministers, and if you don't secret, you will lose your body!"
