At this time, although the Ming army's Divine Fire Flying Crow's offensive was extremely brilliant, General Yuan keenly discovered...some...something was wrong!
Because the Ming army's battle formation was structured outside Guangqu Gate, the overall layout was facing the northeast, especially the eastward direction.
But at this time, the Later Jin army took some tricks.
Although they attacked from the northeast direction, they were more inclined to the north.
Although the north wind was not very strong at this time, its intensity was not small.
Even though the weather was dry and things were very easy to ignite the fire, the Ming army's divine fire flying crow flew over, and even if it ignited the fire on the Later Jin army's chariot, it was easily extinguished by them.
Especially in this state, Mars floated along the north wind and towards the Ming army battle formation southward.
The Later Jin army prepared a lot of broken soil to extinguish fire.
But the Ming army was an inherent position after all, so we were looking for safety. The soil under our feet had long been compacted.
If so...
Governor Yuan didn't dare to think about it any more!
One hundred secrets and one sparse!
He had made great calculations, but never expected that such an important point would be missed!
Commander Yuan immediately remembered that during the Battle of Ningyuan, Li Yuanqing repeatedly emphasized the importance of the trend to him, but then, Commander Yuan still disagreed with it, thinking that Li Yuanqing was exaggerating and sensationalizing.
But at this time, when he was facing this crisis, or even failed directly, the crisis of the collapse of the entire general trend, Master Yuan realized how important this issue is!
"Quick! Stop the Divine Fire Flying Crow! Change to the Sky-Shocking Cannon! Hurry! Hurry!"
At this time, General Yuan didn't care about his image anymore, and waved the Emperor's Sword in his hand hard, roaring loudly.
The messenger beside him was almost frightened and hurriedly passed the order down.
Fortunately, the war had just begun, and the Ming army's battle formation had not been damaged. The overall structure was still very complete, and the orders were quickly passed down one by one.
Although the old soldiers of Shenji Camp did not understand why General Yuan changed his strategy urgently, the emperor watched from behind, and they did not dare to neglect them. They all rush to remove the Divine Fire Crow and replaced them with the Sky-Shock Cannon.
Not long after, ‘swish swish swish swish’!
Another flash of cold fire flashed, and rows of sky-shaking cannons rushed violently towards the battle formation of the Later Jin army like bullets visible to the naked eye.
Then, the "slap" violently exploded in the battle formation of the Later Jin army.
Although the power of the Sky-Shocking Cannon is not as gorgeous as the Divine Fire Flying Crow, its actual power is much more practical than that of the Divine Fire Flying Crow.
Although this small explosion in a small range does not directly break the armor and kills a person, it still hurts when hitting the body.
If it hits the eye, it can directly blind people's eyes.
If it hits a person's exposed skin, it will at least cause people to lose their mobility in a short period of time.
Even if it hits the armor, if it is a weak part, it will be enough to make people feel hurt for a while.
At this time, although the Later Jin army had chariot protection, the ejection effect produced by the explosion of the sky-shaking cannon should not be underestimated. They were temporarily in a bit of chaos.
On the top of the city, I saw the Ming army's wave of divine fire flying crows just now, and everyone was almost scared to pee their pants, so they were ready to run back at any time.
Fortunately.
Commander Yuan made a quick decision and used another wave of shocking cannons to slightly restore the situation.
Emperor Chongzhen was already sweating in his palms.
Although he had been holding on the surface and pretending that he was not nervous, in fact, his heart was not much better than the big guys and nobles around him.
This...this is war.
Maybe, maybe it's just a small, seemingly inconspicuous mistake, which may lead to a chain of subsequent collapse effect!
Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but remember that whenever Li Yuanqing came to the palace to meet the late emperor, he would always pester Li Yuanqing and tell him about the war in Liao.
However, at that time, many times, he would listen to the war told by Li Yuanqing as a story, but at this time, when he really faced the front-line battlefield by himself, he realized how many dangers there were in this!
It is even more necessary to have Li Yuanqing's heart and his courageous and keen decision!
Fortunately, General Yuan finally did not disappoint him...
The effect of the Sky-Shocking Cannon is quite good.
The three or four waves of "Swish Swish Swish Swish" were about to nearly two thousand shots, and the battle formation of the Later Jin army had already shown a lot of chaos.
They all hid in the chariots and earthen walls and did not dare to show up.
Especially those Tartars who were hit by the sky-shaking artillery, their cry of sorrow and howling kept making the Ming soldiers here heard it, and they were immediately relieved.
Originally, the Ming army was a little nervous, and the morale of suppression immediately rose again.
At this time, General Yuan, who was in the middle of the Guanning Army's battle formation, also slowed down a little.
It's okay.
Fortunately, he reacted in time, otherwise he would almost have caused a huge disaster!
At this time, General Yuan finally understood that a real war would not be able to keep talking about the dangers and talk about war on paper after reading a few military books or going through a few battles.
Especially as the commander of the First Army, there are many more things he needs to do and learn.
But at this time, at least he stabilized the front line of the battle formation.
As long as this first offensive slows down the speed of the Tartars, if these lowly dogs, Tatars, dare to come up again, they will enter the range of the Ming army's real weapon of destruction!
The reason why he, General Yuan, spent such a great price to lure the enemy into deeper in front of the emperor was to leave more of the Tartars' heads?
But for a moment, General Yuan suddenly thought of another huge crisis in the Ming army's battle formation...
If, if the dogs and Tartars reacted instantly, and with the help of the north wind, they used fire attacks on the Ming army's battle formation, then...
Commander Yuan's cold sweat suddenly jumped out.
After a moment, General Yuan whispered to his side, "Hurry up, go and send Cao Wenzhao over!"
“Uh? Yes.”
The commander did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly called Cao Wenzhao, a guerrilla warrior on standby not far from the high platform.
Cao Wenzhao is also considered a traditional general.
He was from Datong, Shanxi and had already joined the army in Liaodong as early as the Xiong Tingbi period.
However, his family background is very average and has become a bit out of date. Over the years, he has been suffering in the grassroots army and has never had many opportunities to make a name for himself.
However, Cao Wenzhao was brave and resourceful, brave and fierce, and had a strong combat power. By this time, he was already in his thirties. His original military aura and childishness had been worn out by the wind and frost of the Liao land and the unsuccessful career. He had already done a little well-educated and steadfast.
He was also benefited from the promotion of the General Manager Yuan this time and was promoted from below to the position of guerrilla.
It was considered to be the officer Miaozi who was focused on by General Yuan, who was not the Liaoxi general system.
To put it bluntly, in the late Ming Dynasty, no exaggeration was that any court general who could become famous later or even become a prince later, more than 90% of them had experienced joining the army in Liao!
Because at this time, Liao land was a real big dyeing vat—crisis and opportunity coexist!
After a moment, Cao Wenzhao rushed over with a long and tiger-like step, and respectfully knelt in front of Yuan, "I am humble in Cao Wenzhao, I have met the governor!"
At this time, General Yuan had no time to greet Cao Wenzhao and shouted in a low voice: "Hurry, go and prepare the broken soil! It's better to prepare more water! The Tartars are afraid they will attack with fire!"
"Well?"
Cao Wenzhao was stunned and reacted for a moment, and hurriedly kowtow respectfully: "I understand the humble profession!"
As he said that, he left quickly like a gust of wind.
His group had about 2,500 people, but did not join the Zu family, Zhao Shujiao, Zuo Fu, Zhu Mei and others, and were considered as the confidant forces of the new army and the governor Yuan.
Therefore, Cao Wenzhao's troops did not participate in the war, but were waiting by Yuan's side as a reserve team.
I have never eaten pork, and I have always seen pigs running.
In this regard, General Yuan still left a way out and room for himself.
Soon, Cao Wenzhao took action urgently.
Fortunately, the Ming army camp was behind him, with sufficient manpower and supplies. A large number of auxiliary soldiers immediately joined the front line, loosening the soil and making water.
Supervisor Yuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and wiped a cold sweat with his python sleeve.
At this point, he realized that this battle was really not that easy to fight...
But in this state, General Yuan did not dare to think too much and he hurriedly focused all his energy on the battle formation ahead.
Before the battle began, he had already revealed two fatal flaws. It was impossible to play like this below.
He had to think about everything carefully.
At this time, the Ming army's second wave of the sky-shaking cannon offensive had gradually stopped.
In front, the battle formation of the Later Jin army was already in a mess, with black and gray and smoke and dust flying.
However, whether it is the Divine Fire Flying Crow or the Sky-Shocking Cannon, the deterrence is more meaningful and cannot cause real heavy damage to the Later Jin army.
To be continued...
