Chapter 1002 The King of War

Zhu Youxiao really invested a lot in this battle, and even the 122 ultra-light howitzer that he had always treasured was pulled out.

There are 24 guns in total, not that there are twenty-four guns sent, but that there are only twenty-four guns in the entire Harbour City, because this model of artillery did not enter the PLA service, but the foreign trade model. Although I don’t know which country I sent to, all of them are cheaper now.

Fortunately, this was sent to other countries by foreign trade. The complete set of equipment is loaded in containers, not only various types of ammunition, but also coach ammunition, as well as all training outline technical manuals.

So this is the precious place. Zhu Youxiao has no choice but to have dozens of them accumulated in his hands at 155, but what's the use?

There are ammunition and cannons, but I don’t know how to train below.

The 155-style cannon shell was fired for dozens of miles. The slightest muzzle was moved and then flew out for a few miles. When this kind of cannon was pulled to the battlefield, he knew where one shot would go, and it was normal to say that it would be fired out and explode one shot to one shot.

Zhu Youxiao did not intend to let his army learn from the Mi army that he liked to be a mistaken bomb. It would be better to be safe and secure.

So the 155 is not so useful in Zhu Youxiao. Except for a few kilometers of distance, it is okay to aim straight, but you have to encounter that kind of tall thing, otherwise you won’t know where to hit it in one shot.

This is why most of the troops are equipped with mortars nowadays, and this simple training will be better. Anyway, the power is not far away, the ballistics or curves are strong, and the combat effectiveness is generally sufficient.

This time it was different. This time it was a decisive battle. Zhu Youxiao transferred the First Artillery Brigade to the top in one breath, and twelve 122 ultra-light howitzers lined up one after another.

"Open fire!"

The twelve artillery guns were undoubtedly the most eye-catching existence on the artillery position here. The cannon pulled the line and suddenly spit out the shells. A flame of more than one meter flashed from the muzzle. The barrel suddenly shook backwards. The huge recoil was removed by the earth. Then the gunner behind held the integrated shells and filled the barrel into the barrel chamber to prepare for the second round of artillery attacks.

"Free artillery fire after three rapid fires! One base!" The captain of the artillery brigade yelled in the cannon mirror.

"The No. 5 and 6 gun position deflected to the left for two hundred meters!"

"The No. 11 gun position extends forward by 150 meters!"

The effect of the shelling in front was clearly seen by the captain with the cannon mirror. He stood at a high place and issued instructions to the cannon position below.

The camp he was aiming at was really unlucky. Five thousand Jiannu soldiers and 30,000 Goryeo Eight Banners soldiers were guarding this important intersection. You can directly reach the city of Seoul when you go out from here, so the guards here are all elites among Jiannu and selected among the Goryeo Eight Banners.

In order to build this camp, 50,000 or 60,000 Koreans were sent here to open mountains to collect stones, log and build them. After half a month, thousands of people died before building the place, in order to block the Ming army's attack.

There are mountains on both sides of this place, and the road in the middle is only more than 100 meters, and at most one or two hundred people can walk side by side, so it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Dorgon's plan was to block the Ming army's army in this place, and then Dai Shan would personally lead his deployment to attack the back and attack on both sides. Such attacks on both sides of the Ming army would definitely not be able to hold on.

As long as one of the three Ming troops retreated, he could calmly mobilize more troops to siege the other two Ming troops.

By then, the Ming army will definitely be defeated, and this battle will be won by our Dajin!

I have to say that Dorgon's strategy is not a problem from the overall perspective. The place he chose is indeed suitable for defense. If the defenders are more than 100 meters wide, they should be able to defend.

Then another army would go around from the other side of the mountain to block the retreating path of the attacking Ming army. As long as the Jiannu of this place could be guarded for five days, Dai Shan could take his men and horses to cross the mountains and penetrate them into place.

If it were a normal Ming army in five days, even the elite Ming army could defend it with this camp, but the Ming army he encountered now was not so normal.

The army in the middle was composed of the First Army, and the 50,000 soldiers of the First Army were fully firearmed troops, with nearly 400 artillery guns alone.

In front of this fully firearmed army, the city walls and other things are outdated tactics.

When the 122 howitzer fell down, the soldiers in the camp were still making meals, and then they were bombarded.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

There was a sound of pulling a whistle from the sky. Before they could react, the shells had already hit them.

122 The people and animals were equal within a radius of ten meters below the howitzer. Black clouds rushed into the sky, and a powerful shock wave cleared the range of more than ten seconds. The Korean soldiers who were squatting on the ground and blowing bowls of porridge just now saw many people flying up in their confused eyes.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

Then more shells exploded, all of which were flowering bullets, because the solid bullets that the Ming army had eliminated now were all flowering bullets, and more than 380 cannons fired together, which was something that the First Army had never seen before. In training, there were only a dozen fires at most.

Even the commander Cao Bianjiao was stunned. His grown-up mouth could not be closed. Now only flames were left in his eyes. The originally neat camp had been surrounded by sparks.

Cao Bianjiao watched the enemy soldiers fly up by shells and are still blown away before they fall.

To be honest, Cao Bianjiao was really sad for these enemy soldiers at this time. I am afraid that the enemy now must be very desperate.

What Your Majesty said is that cannons are the king of war!

This statement is indeed true, Your Majesty is mighty and domineering!

The soldiers of the First Army, a thousand meters away, closed their breath and looked at the explosions ahead. The only reflection in their eyes was the sparks representing the extinction of life.

The camp spanning two hundred meters was shrouded in a sea of ​​fire. The enemy soldiers in it were blown up under the fierce artillery fire and cried. No one had ever experienced the powerful artillery here. At this time, all the defense methods they established became a joke under the artillery fire.

Ten minutes after artillery, the walls of the camps erected in front had been blown up, and the road for the Ming army to advance had been opened.

"Doudududududu!"

After a few short trumpets, the First Army soldiers immediately raised their muskets after hearing this.

"Brothers, come with me!"

The first battalion officer, who was leading the striker, held a musket and led him to deploy the first wave of attacks ahead.

The first wave was the Sharp Knife Battalion of the entire army. More than 2,000 soldiers with the indomitable momentum, vowed not to break through the enemy formation!
