"It's the Yi army that's firing!"

Bolo on the side exclaimed, answering Abate's doubts.

First, a stone shell fell into one's own artillery position, and then a series of artillery shots were heard from the Yi army. Then fifty or sixty shells were seen falling more accurately into the place where Ha Chao was in Qianwuzhen.

Boom boom boom...

After the shells fell, a series of explosions sounded.

Because the Wuzhen Harchao troops of the Qing army were almost unprepared and were setting up Hongyi cannons and other artillery in a relatively dense formation, they were overturned in a series of explosions.

Almost a third of the gun carriage was destroyed, and the gunners had no idea how many casualties they had.

Covered by dust and smoke, wailing sounds could be heard one after another from the previous Qing artillery positions, which was extremely miserable.

Abatai's eyes widened when he saw this scene, and he murmured: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could the Yi army have so many Hongyi cannons?!"

Bolo came back to his senses, became calmer, and said: "This Yi army carries at least fifty Hongyi cannons, and they fire very powerful explosive shells!"

Then he turned to look at Abatai and said, "Ama, this army is definitely not simple. I'm afraid there are other hidden cards. Please give the order to withdraw the troops quickly?"

On such a cold day, a thin layer of sweat broke out on Abatai's forehead. After thinking for a while, he said: "We can't withdraw! Let's not say whether the Eijun army will allow us to evacuate safely. I just said that we have not been in close combat with the Eijun army. We’ve lost so many artillery pieces and gunners, I won’t be able to keep up with my job when I go back!”

The rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was inseparable from the strict military discipline in its early days.

This strict military discipline does not mean "do not disturb the people or loot", but strictly implement orders from superiors.

Even members of the royal family will be severely punished if they violate military discipline or fail to complete military tasks.

After Abatai said these words, his eyes turned red and he ordered: "Let Shu Lun and Xili Dege not wait any longer and immediately lead the Eight Banner Mongolian soldiers to attack the enemy's flank again.

It would be best to rush into where the Yi army's artillery is, kill their gunners, and destroy their artillery! "

"twitter!"

The guards around Abata responded and immediately went to deliver the order.

Bolo wanted to say something, but finally kept silent.

He estimated that even Turg would have difficulty persuading Abatai at this time, let alone his son.

On the other side, the two Jiala Zhangjings of the Eight Banners Mongolia received Abatai's order and couldn't help but open their mouths in surprise.

"Isn't this asking us to die?" Shu Lun, who has a more upright personality, couldn't help but said.

Silidegg also had a gloomy look on his face.

But the two of them did not dare to disobey the military order - if they did so, Abatai had the right to kill them on the spot and replace them with others as Jiala Zhangjing temporarily.

However, the two of them didn't want to die in a daze. Silidegg whispered: "Let's go and try a wave, but we must have some spare strength. If the situation goes bad, retreat immediately."

"Abatai, you idiot!" Shu Lun cursed, then nodded, and each led more than a thousand Mongolian elite cavalry to Xili Dege to charge towards the two wings of the Yi army's formation again.

On the other side, the Qing army's carriage array did not stop because it was shelled from the rear. Instead, under Turg's command, it moved forward at a faster speed.

Turg also saw that Abate was jealous and could not withdraw his troops. In this case, they had no choice but to try to overwhelm the Wei army formation in front of them.

He now only hopes that this Yi army is only weak in artillery, and its performance in close combat will be relatively poor.

Soon, the front row of the Qing army's carriage array reached a place more than a hundred steps away from the Yi army.

Although this distance is still beyond the reach of bows and arrows, and even blunderbuss cannot easily penetrate armor, it is actually quite close.

The generals on the front line of the Yi army immediately followed Qu Xiaofeng's order and directed the firing of the squatting tiger artillery.

Bang bang bang...

A dense and crisp sound of artillery sounded.

In order to destroy the Qing army's carriage, this time the Tiger Crouching Cannon fired all iron bullets.

In an instant, hundreds of iron bullets were fired at the Qing army's carriage array from the front of the Yi army's formation.

Facts have proved that there is a reason why the Qing army likes the carriage so much.

The Yi army's squatting tiger cannon was improved on the basis of the Ming army's squatting tiger cannon. It could not help but have a longer range and greater power, but there was no qualitative change. At this time, hundreds of iron bullets were fired, but none of them penetrated the carriage!

At most, the wood on the edge of the car's fender cracked and sputtered.

Or it fell into the Qing army Baoyi and Aha in the rear, causing some damage. But this kind of killing depends on luck, so the Qing army's attrition is very limited.

Seeing this, Turg felt reassured and immediately ordered again, urging the carriage array to speed up and engage in real battle with the Yi army as soon as possible.

Zhang Xin was a little surprised to see Zhen Che fighting so hard, but he was not in a hurry.

Because in addition to the squatting tiger cannon, the Yi army also had grenades.

Although the Tiger Crouching Cannon can be regarded as a direct fire, it is difficult to effectively kill the Qing army behind its block when facing the carriage.

However, grenades thrown by hand are different.

Soon, the front row of the Qing army's carriages approached about twenty steps away from the Yi army's formation.

The Yi army had dug a simple trench here before, but now it played a role in delaying the launch of the truck.

Baoyi and Aha of the Qing army behind the chariot had already entered the shooting range of their rifles and bows, so they simply threw a hail of arrows at the Yi army's formation behind the block.

The sword players in the front row of the Yi army immediately raised their shields upon seeing this.

For a moment, the Qing army's arrows landed on the Yi army's shields or armor, making a dense shuddering sound.

Even if ordinary arrows fall on the soldiers of the Yi army, they will not be able to penetrate the armor very deeply. At most, they will cause flesh wounds to the soldiers of the Yi army. The standing army is a real elite who has experienced rigorous training and many battles. They can usually endure a few flesh wounds and continue to fight.

However, there were also many heavy arrows hidden in the rain of arrows from the Qing army.

These heavy arrows are either shovel-shaped arrows or triangular arrows. They are not only stronger, but also the most capable of breaking armor and causing greater damage to people.

Many officers and soldiers of the Yi army were hit by heavy arrows and fell down with a groan. Some were hit by arrows in their vital organs and even died on the spot.

A battalion commander in charge of the front line command saw dozens of soldiers under his command were killed and injured in an instant. His eyes suddenly turned red and he shouted loudly: "You can't stand like this and get beaten. Come with me and charge with grenades!"

After giving the order, he took the lead, holding a grenade in each hand and rushing forward (the Yijun's grenades were relatively large).

The battalion commander took the lead, and the lower-level generals and soldiers below were naturally not deterred and rushed forward with grenades in hand.

In fact, at this time, the front row of the Qing army's marquee array was less than twenty steps away from the Yi army's formation. It was only because of the marquee blockers that the Ei army was so passive. Otherwise, these Qing troops could have been wiped out with muskets alone.

As for the optimal throwing distance of grenades, it is about ten steps.

So the officers and soldiers of the Yi army took advantage of the rain of arrows, rushed out ten or so steps, and threw the ignited grenades behind the barrier of the carriage.

Because the Qing army did not shoot arrows uniformly, during the process, some Qing troops showed up and shot the soldiers of the Yi army, causing them to fall down with hatred.

But this is only a minority.

Most of the Yi army officers and men successfully threw the grenades behind the carriage.
