Chapter 283 Repel Zheng Jun
Duoduo saw that the Ming army's defense might not be easy to attack, but he decided to launch an attack.
The Zheng family's army died at all times. For the Qing Dynasty, there was no loss. Instead, it was conducive to the stability of Fujian. It can be said that it won multiple goals in one fell swoop.
The Qing Dynasty could not have given Zheng Zhilong the king of the three provinces. In addition, the Qing army attacked Anping City, and the Zheng surrendered army in Fujian quickly gradually reacted.
In terms of employment, the Qing Dynasty first Manchuria and Mongolian, then Han flags, and Han people from Liaodong and Han people from the Qing Dynasty in the north, and then Jiangnan and Huguang. Zheng army in Fujian can only be considered the most time-honored and it is impossible to be reused.
As a powerful general in Zuozhen, Jin Shenghuan almost conquered Jiangxi province with his own strength, and was still discriminated against by those who first voted within the Qing Dynasty, let alone these Zheng troops.
Duoduo can be sure that as time goes by, Zheng Jun realizes his own situation, it will inevitably become an unstable factor.
In the Zheng army, Shi Fu, Shi Lang and others were discussing tactics. They were native Fujianese. When they saw the Ming army's defense, they felt a toothache, and they also understood the Ming army's intentions.
In this case, the attack was really not good, but Duoduo ordered that they knew it was not easy to attack, but they could only bite the bullet and launch the attack.
The Zheng family was rich, and the Zheng army was much more advanced than the ordinary Ming army, so they were not afraid of Zhejiang soldiers.
After discussing with Shi Lang, Shi Fu decided to put the sword and shield soldiers equipped with rattan cards and round shields at the front, hoping to use the shield's defense to block the Ming army's muskets and bows and arrows to create conditions for the Zheng army behind to fight in close combat.
The Qing army had obvious advantages in military strength. As long as they were trapped in close combat, the Ming army would inevitably be defeated.
At this time, with Duoduo's order, the urgent trumpet of the army sounded, and the Qing army's supervisory team holding a hard bow had already begun to urge the Zheng army to attack.
Shi Fu took a look, quickly pulled out his battle knife, and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Brothers, the firearms in the Zhejiang Army are sharp, please be careful. After charging later, everyone should try to run faster and eat less one gun. When running, remember to pay attention to your feet, and not get stuck in the mud and become a living target. When you fight with the Zhejiang Army, you will show me the momentum, so that the Zhejiang Army and the Qing Army will not underestimate our Fujian Army."
Shi Lang also pulled out the knife and shouted loudly: "I'm embarrassed, do you understand?"
Thousands of Zheng army fronts shouted together, "Don't worry, General, I will definitely call the Zhejiang army good-looking!"
Shi Fu and Shi Lang then waved his knife and roared, "Run for me!"
The horn masterpiece was made in a row, and the soldiers of Zheng raised their shields one after another, and stepped forward towards the hills.
At this time, affected by the terrain, the Zheng family's infantry could not form a tight formation and advanced towards the hills. They could only form a small formation of more than ten people in units of small teams, spread out and climbed upwards.
On the Ming army position halfway up, the Ming army soldiers hid behind the low walls, held muskets and rapid-fired copper cannons, and were ready.
Under the Ming army's flag, Zhao Ming looked down on the terraced fields, and the Qing army charged upwards were densely packed, and the scene was quite spectacular.
"Transfer the order, the enemy enters the range, fire the cannon first, then fire the muskets and bows. Finally, the killer team throws the javelin and launches counter-charge, defeating the enemy in one fell swoop!" Zhao Ming ordered coldly.
Zheng Jun set out from the river beach and soon arrived at the terraced fields at the foot of the mountain. The soldiers carried shields to cover the musketeers and archers, and marched up the ridges.
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the Ming army's position halfway up, and a ball of gunpowder rose, and the shells shot out from the orange flames and hit the Zheng army quickly.
Duoduo, who was watching the battle in the rear, saw the flames of artillery flashing and smoke rising on the Ming army's front. The whistling shells hit the Zheng army, splashing mud pillars in the terraced fields, and frowned slightly.
"This cannon can shoot two miles, but it is not a red-clothed cannon. Zhao Zamao has created a new type of cannon." Duoduo frowned, but the Zheng army's formation was scattered, and the Ming army's cannons roared, but they only splashed soil, and their lethality was not great.
At this time, the Zheng army soldiers braved the shelling and continued to advance. The figures in front finally entered the range of the musket.
"Bang bang bang" sounded, and smoke from the front spread out from the Ming army's front. The Qing army rushing in front suddenly fell down.
A Zheng soldier was shot in the chest, screamed and rushed to death in the terraced fields full of water.
Under the fire of the Ming army's muskets, blood mist rose from the armor of Zheng soldiers, and their bodies were shaking and suffocating to death.
Shi Lang was shocked when he saw this. Unexpectedly, the range of the Ming army musket was so far. He hurriedly shouted, "Rise the shield!"
The Zheng army soldiers in front hurriedly lifted the shield, protected their bodies, and then continued to push forward.
Behind the earth wall, Ming's arms hand raised the musket again, and the soldiers aimed at Zheng Jun running on the winding ridges of the field and pulled the trigger again.
With a "click", the flint hit the rock and sparks. The gun bar shook violently, the muzzle was swung upwards, and the projectile roared out.
The Zheng soldiers approached in a scattered formation. The Ming army did not use the tactic of three rows of volleys, but a gunman shot. The two gunmen behind were responsible for loading, loading gunpowder and handing them over to the gunman in front to shoot.
The Ming soldiers kept pulling the trigger, and the Zheng soldiers fell one after another.
Although the Zheng army was Duoduo's cannon fodder, it was the army within the Qing Dynasty battle sequence. Duoduo saw Zheng army fall to the ground one after another and kill him in the mud and water, his expression gradually became serious.
The layers of terraced fields made it impossible for the Zheng army soldiers to rush straight to the Ming army's front. They charged along the ridges, greatly increasing the distance and becoming the targets of the Ming army's muskets and bows.
At a distance of thirty steps, the Zheng soldiers could already see the faces of the Ming soldiers in the smoke of gunpowder. As the distance narrowed, the power of the Ming soldiers' muskets became even stronger.
Even when Zheng Jun lifted the shield, he was shot through by a flintlock rifle and then penetrated into the body of Zheng Jun soldiers.
Seeing this, Shi Lang immediately roared: "Go down the field and rush up!"
After he finished yelling, he led the way, stepped into the muddy terraces, and rushed directly towards the Ming army's front.
"Impact!" Thousands of Zheng soldiers followed suit and rushed directly into the terraced fields, charging with mud and water splashing.
The Ming army muskets continued to sound, and the Zheng army who was rushing in front was knocked down again, but the people behind passed over the corpse and continued to move forward, rushing within twenty steps.
At this time, the Zheng soldiers were very happy and thought they were about to fight close to each other. They didn't have to face the Ming army's gun, and nearly a thousand javelins were whistled out. Before the Zheng soldiers could react urgently, they were nailed to death in the terraced fields and their bodies were shot backwards.
This made Zheng Jun, who was rushing forward, feel particularly frightened. At this moment, on the Ming army front, Ruan Mei jumped up and pointed in front of him, "Brothers, kill me!"
"Break them down!" The soldiers of the Ming army, who were like wolves and tigers, picked up their weapons, jumped over the low wall, jumped into the muddy terraced fields, and rushed towards the Zheng army soldiers.
After the bombardment, muskets were shot and javelins were thrown, the soldiers of Zheng who were hit by the frustrated attacks were shocked when they saw the Ming army rushing down like a tiger. They screamed in surprise, ran away after pulling their legs, and thousands of people retreated in an instant.
Under the big crow, Duoduo saw this scene and his muscles on his face immediately twitched, "Damn Zhao Zamao, it's really hard to fight!"
