As the front baffle of the carriage fell down, something happened that shocked the charging Jiannu.

Almost all carriages had several artillery pieces, and before Jiannu could react, nearly a hundred artillery pieces sprayed out bursts of fury.

"Rumble..."

Dozens of solid bullets were fired at the Jiannu charging troops. A dozen solid bullets directly crushed the path of blood in the Jiannu crowd, leaving only broken limbs and blood along the way.

A cannonball passed by Kong Youde, and the heads of two Han soldiers were instantly taken away by the cannonball. Then it penetrated the bodies of three more people, and the person in front was directly beaten into a puddle of minced meat...

Dorgon's captain was also hit by a cannonball. The cannonball directly broke his body in half and killed three war horses one after another...

A round of shelling took away at least the lives of more than two hundred Jiannu, but the white flag of Jiannu, under the command of Duduo and Kong Youde, still kept rushing towards the Ming army's vehicle formation.

"Rumble..."

Just as the first round of bombardment ended, the second round of bombardment began again, this time with all shotgun shells.

The range of shotgun shells is limited, and the lethality of cannon fired at close range is far greater than that of solid bullets. The lethality of shotgun shells sprayed by dozens of artillery can be imagined:

"Puff puff……"

There was a sound of objects penetrating flesh, and a few shotgun blasts almost wiped out the Jian slaves rushing in front. At least a thousand Jian slaves were beaten into sieves...

"Nima, the grain truck and the artillery truck are exactly the same. You can't tell the difference between the artillery truck and the grain truck without firing the gun. These smart dogs are too cunning..."

Seeing that the grain truck suddenly turned into an artillery truck, Duduo cursed angrily, but scolding could not solve the problem. He could only bravely rush up. Only by rushing into the car formation would he be considered a victory.

Despite the heavy casualties, Jiannu was not afraid. Under the command of Duduo and Kong Youde, the Qing soldiers continued to charge towards the Ming army's vehicle array with strange screams.

Seeing how crazy Jiannu was, Mao Yuanyi did not hesitate to order the artillery to be abandoned and instead fired in three rows:

"Quick, pull up the carriage's baffle, give up the bombardment, the gunmen are ready to shoot..."

"Here!"

Mao Yuanyi gave the order, and the musketeers immediately took up their positions, waiting for the general's order to fire at any time.

Seeing that Jiannu had been able to advance about 120 steps, Mao Yuanyi pointed the sword high in the air and issued an order:

"shot……"

"Bang bang bang..."

There were two thousand people in one row, and there were three rows of 6,000 people in total. Mao Yuanyi gave an order, and the two thousand gunmen in the first row raised their guns and fired.

"Puff puff……"

Two thousand lead bullets shot out, and a large number of Qing soldiers rushing in front fell instantly. Some people's heads were directly smashed by shotguns, while others had countless blood holes on their bodies...

Most of the Ming army's grain trucks were still on the road, and the front of the road was tightly blocked by a circular formation of nearly a hundred four-wheeled carriages.

If the Jiannu wanted to rob or burn the grain carts, they had to break through the Ming army's circular formation composed of four-wheeled carriages and firecrackers.

Originally, the phalanx of fire cannons could kill the charging Jiannu on a large scale. The Ming army standing behind the carriage and shooting was of course safer. They could shoot at Jiannu without restraint.

"Bang bang bang..."

Just like this, the Ming army stood behind the carriage and fired continuously. Jiannu had just rushed to about a hundred steps when a hail of bullets suddenly hit his head and face...

While the musket array was attacking Jiannu, some brave baggage soldiers also took up muskets to shoot at Jiannu. With the strength of the people, no matter whether they could kill Jiannu, it would have a great psychological impact on Jiannu.

Ningyuan City

Jin Guofeng, the commander-in-chief of Ningyuan, wanted to go to war with Emperor Shenwu, but Emperor Shenwu refused and left him to guard Ningyuan's food and grass.

Ningyuan's strategic position at this time was extremely high, because all the grain and grass shipped from the pass were in Ningyuan City, and there must be no mistakes. Once Ningyuan was lost, the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of troops would not be guaranteed.

Zhu Cixiang believed in Jin Guofeng's ability, so he left him in Ningyuan. Otherwise, he would have left a battalion of the National Guard Army to guard Ningyuan.

Jin Guofeng was inspecting the grain depot when he suddenly stopped receiving reports all night long:

"General, the slaves are setting up a white flag to attack our army's convoy thirty miles south of the city..."

Jin Guofeng was shocked and immediately wanted to send troops to support him, but he quickly calmed down.

The Ming Dynasty and Jian Nu were fighting in Jinzhou and Rufeng Mountain. Why did the Xiangbai Banner come to Ningyuan? Could it be Jian Nu's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and wait until the Ningyuan city was empty to break into the city and seize or burn the Ming army's food and grass...

After thinking for a moment, Jin Guofeng asked:

"Emperor Shenwu personally led the army to fight in Jinzhou. How could Xiangbai Ban have time to go to Ningyuan to rob food and grass? Is the intelligence reliable?"

Ye Bushou hurriedly raised his hands and said:

"Report to the general that our Ming army has defeated the two yellow banners of Jiannu in Rufeng Mountain, the Longteng army has defeated the Dorgon Zhengbai banner in Tashan, and the Huben army has completely wiped out the Jiannu Zhenglan banner in Songshan. These reports are all true.

Indeed. The Xiangbai Banner was originally in Xingshan, but for some reason it suddenly appeared in Ningyuan..."

Jin Guofeng was overjoyed when he heard this, but soon frowned and asked:

"How many men and horses are there to build a slave with a white flag?"

"Reporting to the general, there are at least 20,000 troops. General Mao Yuanyi used the car formation to have a fierce battle with Jiannu..."

Jin Guofeng heard this and no longer hesitated. Since there was only one man with a white flag in Ningyuan, he decided to support Mao Yuanyi in time.

Mao Yuanyi led a heavy army and would definitely be defeated by Jiannu with his white flag. No matter what, the Ming army's food and grass could not fall into Jiannu's hands.

Jin Guofeng originally had six thousand men under his command, but the emperor of the Shenwu Army left three thousand white pole soldiers in Ningyuan. He decided to lead three thousand white pole soldiers with Ma Xianglin to support Mao Yuanyi.

He handed over Ning Yuan to his two sons and ordered them to defend the city without fail. Then he and Ma Xianglin led 3,000 white soldiers out of the city.

In order to support Mao Yuanyi in time, Jin Guofeng temporarily lent his cavalry and horses to the white pole soldiers on their way. When they met Jiannu, the white pole soldiers were dismounting and fighting on foot...

…

Mao Yuanyi did not know that Jin Guofeng would come to support them. Faced with the crazy attack of more than 20,000 Jiannu, he remained calm in the face of danger and calmly commanded the Shenwu Army Leopard Battalion to attack the Jiannu head-on.

Under the repeated attacks of the Ming army's artillery, more than 20,000 people with white flags were killed and more than 3,000 people were killed. In the end, more than a thousand cavalry took the opportunity to approach the Ming army's vehicle formation.

However, the Ming army's chariot formation was all four-wheeled carriages connected together, and the cavalry could not rush into the carriage formation. They could only jump off their horses in the hail of bullets and prepare to push forward the carriages.

But as soon as he jumped off the horse, dozens of grenades suddenly flew out from the car formation. Before the Jiannu could understand what was going on, more than a dozen grenades had already exploded in the crowd of Jiannu.

"Rumble..."

Even though all the Jiannu were wearing heavy armor, they were still unable to withstand the explosion of grenades. Many Jiannu were blown away with their flesh and blood, and the remaining Jiannu were quickly killed by the Ming army's heavy troops with fire cannons.

Mao Yuanyi simply commanded the heavy troops and let the heavy troops find targets and shoot by themselves. He was only responsible for the three rows of the fire cannon formation and fired volleys...

The heavy troops of the Ming army had been training. They were not afraid of establishing slaves. They mainly lacked experience in fighting. As the battle deepened, these young bloody men gradually began to calm down.

At this time, their hands no longer trembled, they began to take their time when loading ammunition, and their fire guns became more and more accurate.

Although the heavy troops were fighting separately outside the musket formation, due to the large number of people, those Jiannu who were scattered near the car formation were basically defeated by them...

There were also more than a thousand heavy troops and gunmen in the carriage formation. Mao Yuanyi originally planned to let them stab the slaves with bayonets as they climbed onto the carriage.

But as the battle deepened, Mao Yuanyi discovered that these heavy infantry soldiers actually began to fire in small groups at the Jiannu cavalry approaching the car formation. Those Jiannu cavalry approaching the car formation were killed by the heavy infantry soldiers.

Sometimes a few Jurong slaves broke away from the charge team and quietly approached the car formation. Hundreds of heavy troops fired at a few Jurong slaves, and immediately beat the Jurong slaves, including their men and horses, into a sieve.

Whenever Mao Yuanyi saw that the heavy troops could not find their target, dozens of people shot at a slave, and beat the slave into a sieve, a smile appeared on his lips...

The baggage soldiers are originally new recruits. When they first come into contact with the enemy, they will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure and will be nervous. After a few battles like this, they will soon grow into qualified musketeers.

Duduo did not expect that the ordinary heavy troops of the Ming army had such high combat effectiveness. They paid thousands of casualties but were unable to break through the vehicle formation. If it were not for the lack of food and grass, he would have given up long ago.

There was no other way, Duduo could only ask Kong Youde to send the Han army's firecrackers, but the range of the Han army's firecrackers was far less than that of the Ming army, and the killing range of their firecrackers was about seventy steps.

When the Han army's artillery soldiers approached the Ming army's vehicle formation more than 70 steps, the Han army had already killed and wounded hundreds of people, and they paid a huge price for this.

However, they fired a volley at the Ming army, and the lead bullets were basically blocked by the carriage baffles. It was difficult to cause damage to the Ming army's artillerymen behind the carriage formation, so they had no choice but to withdraw from the battle.

In desperation, Duduo could only order to suspend the attack and let the Qing soldiers cut down nearby trees to build shield vehicles, preparing to use the shield vehicles to attack the Ming army's vehicle array.

Seeing Jiannu starting to cut down trees to build shield chariots, Mao Yuanyi knew that something was wrong and that he might have to fight Jiannu in close combat, so he immediately sent an order to summon all the heavy troops on the mountain road.

With 10,000 people in the Leopard Camp, plus nearly 10,000 young and heavy troops, Mao Yuanyi knew that even in close combat, the Ming army would not be afraid at all. At most, it would only increase the casualties of the Ming army.

During the training of the heavy troops, in addition to shooting and assassination with spears, they all carried spears in their vehicles. These spears were not ordinary spears, and the spearheads were all armor-piercing cones.

Mao Yuanyi handed over the command of the pikemen to their generals and Qian Zong. Once Jiannu broke through the car formation, they would be responsible for commanding the pikemen to stab and kill Jiannu.

They traveled thousands of miles from the pass to transport grain and grass to Liaodong. They would rather die in battle than let Jiannu rush into the grain and grass convoy, let alone let Jiannu jump over the wall and shoot rockets to burn the grain and grass.

With a large number of people, it was easy to work. With about two sticks of incense, Jian Nu built dozens of simple shield vehicles and began to charge towards the Ming army again.

Mao Yuanyi immediately ordered the bombardment of the shield vehicle:

"Fire and destroy the Jiannu shield vehicle..."

"Rumble..."

The caliber of the field gun on the carriage was not large, and the solid bullets hit the shield carriage, immediately sending sawdust flying from the shield carriage.

The flying sawdust and wooden slats severely damaged the Qing soldiers behind the shield car. Many people were injured in the face and eyes by the sawdust. The screams and the sound of cannons were heard... I like the Ming Dynasty. In the prosperous era, everyone started from the prince to supervise the country.
