Chapter Thirty-Five: The Opportunity Never Comes Again
When the quality of the firearm is guaranteed with reliable guarantee, its lethality to the armored soldiers is beyond doubt.
The continuous gunfire sounded, row after row, like the waves in the sea, slapped the Qing army and their horses in front of them on the shore.
The Qing army screamed in a row, and Subatai was going crazy and was about to rush into the slanting place, but it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, all Jianlu people in front, including Subatai, were shot to the ground by rows of guns. In an instant, the people were turned over and the horses were overturned. Jianlu's desperate screams and the painful neigh of the war horses played a symphony that made Zheng Sen smile.
There were only about a hundred vest soldiers behind Subatai. They followed Subatai along the way. They were so majestic. They just felt that this battle was pushed from beginning to end. They were completely unprepared for fighting hard and bloody battles, and they didn't even have much defense. They just wanted to chase and kill the Ming army.
After being saturated by the Volunteer Camp for a long time, more than half of them died in the blink of an eye.
The remaining Qing army turned their horses and fled back, but it was easy to come, but it was difficult to leave.
Several thunderbolt bombs were thrown into the horses, and flames bloomed, blowing away the souls of the Qing army's vests and soldiers.
The vest soldiers who escaped by chance ran back like crazy. Even the Qing army's infantry armor and the coatmen who followed Subatae to attack from Subatae also felt something was wrong. Such dense sounds of bird guns and explosions were obviously impossible to come from Subatae's hands.
Before the vests in front were defeated, the officers in charge would go back. Then they were firmly blocked by the bald soldiers' previous attitude!
The latter dared not escape because the bald soldiers all had relatives, and their relatives were under the control of Zheng's army.
These bald soldiers were all born in the guise industry and were unable to eat enough in the past. In the current Little Ice River period, disasters in the pass are frequent, so can they get outside the pass? It is not the beginning and end of the eight dog merchants, and no matter how prosperous the Jianlu soldiers are, they cannot have the current momentum.
These people only had two days of full meal after following Zheng Jun. In terms of combat power, they were far from comparable to Jianlu Armored Soldiers.
Not to mention that the military equipment is also very different.
But as long as a person has the will of fighting and courage, no matter how weak he is, he can burst out with power beyond his own. Just like the Red Army in later generations, that is a good example.
Another example is the Battle of Jiangyin in history, which is also an obvious example.
What's more, they don't have iron armor on their bodies, but they have a medicinal bag in their hands.
"Kill..."
A few dozen people fled in a hurry on their vests, and the volunteer camp launched a large-scale murder. The Jianlu and the Baoyimen on the top of the Gaizhou City no longer had the intention to joke and watch the show. They opened their mouths wide and looked at the sudden change outside the city in disbelief.
It was not until a man saw a bunch of cavalrymen who were galloping towards the city gate that he shouted, "Suspension Bridge, pull up the suspension bridge..."
Only then did the people on the city realize that they hurriedly pulled up the suspension bridge. But it was too late.
Li Wu and dozens of cavalry behind him had already rushed to the city. The horse's hooves were stepped on the suspension bridge, how could he lift the city?
The dozens of cavalry were all bald soldiers, but they had iron armor, bird guns, and small medicinal bags. They grabbed the suspension bridge and then grabbed the city gate, and did not continue to rush in, but just guarded the entrance.
No matter what the battle at the city gate was, Zheng Sen only knew one thing: as long as he could kill all the main forces of the Qing army that had left the city, he would be able to go down without a fight.
But even so, when he saw Li Wu, who was stained with blood in half of his body and was hanging on his arms, he still praised him with praise. He called him like Zhu Bajie who had eaten ginseng fruit, and he felt comfortable all over his body.
Standing on the head of Gaizhou City, Zheng Sen looked at the Gaizhou military and civilians who were crying at the city gate, and then looked at the flames that had risen in the city, with scorching sparks flashing in his eyes.
Fight against Yaozhou first, then against Niuzhuang, fight against Haizhou three times, and defeat Gaizhou four times.
Less than a month after his father led his army to the Liaohai Sea, he destroyed four cities, killed hundreds of Zhentar people, and captured more than 10,000 of his people.
I won’t talk about this outstanding military achievements. I will only talk about the ‘super powers’ revealed by the navy in these battles, which made Zheng Sen very happy. Who made Jianlu have no defense?
As long as the Jianlu has a sea but no defense, the thousand-mile Liaohai will be full of flaws in the eyes of the Zheng family. Then, the Zheng army's victory today is not unique.
Even if the Tartars gain wisdom when they see each other, they will never look down on the Zheng army so much. If they are easily deceived, they will have the foundation for their chances of victory. Why worry about not having any merits?
In this way, if Zheng set up an army on Juehua Island, it can be used as ten armies. Then, the future Ming Dynasty will not be concerned about the strengths of Zheng, and only talk about the present, Zheng will have great contributions to the court.
The raging fire completely engulfs Gaizhou, and even if the fire cannot destroy the city wall, the city will definitely be burned into white.
Zheng Sen stood at the bow of the ship, and four black-tailed ships headed straight towards the mouth of the Liaohe River like sharp swords. Behind him, a fleet also set sail and headed towards Juehua Island in the south.
He was very eager to know what the battle in Niuzhuang was going on. At the same time, he wanted to know what kind of feelings would the civil and military officials in Ningyuan City feel when they saw Zheng Jun frequently sending their victory?
Aren't they ashamed?
In fact, they were really not ashamed at all. Instead, they all cheered up and stared at the head of Zheng Zhilong.
Fan Zhiwan and Qiu Minyang also happily reported to the capital.
The entire civil and military high-level buildings in Ningyuan City were filled with joy, as if the siege of Songjin in front had been lifted and the siege of Xingshan had been lifted.
But this time Zheng Zhilong was not that easy to talk to. Shi Fu still smiled on his face, but he was so cruel that he called the five generals in the city. All of them were heartbroken.
"Isn't Marshal Ma difficult for his subordinates? My general left his subordinates in Ningyuan, but did not give him the right to act cheaply. A head was replaced with a cavalry, which was appointed by my general. How could the subordinates tamper with the right? "
Shi Fu looked extremely embarrassed on his face. Ma Ke's teeth were itchy!
The so-called Jingqi refers to the servants, at least in Mako, who refers to the servants. How could it be the Jingqi? For the Ming generals of this era, the servants were their capital. Without the servants, the combat power of the army would no longer be. How could they talk about official positions?
Of course, Wu Sangui is not included. Not to mention the Yi Dingqi under his command, it is an elite force composed of the Wu father and son, brothers, relatives, and their children. It is the veritable Wu family army, purely the private armed forces of the Wu family. It is the most powerful combat power of the Guanning Army!
Just talking about the horse army in his team, it is not difficult to pick out hundreds of people who are good at horse warfare.
Because the Guanning Army gathered the elites of the world, one of them was treated favorably by the Ming court for more than 20 years, and that was far superior to other armies.
"I don't know what a genius is?" Ma Ke asked again, holding back his anger. Who made him be controlled by others? The Zheng family held the necessities he needed in their hands, so they could only swallow their anger.
"It's enough for those who are proficient in horse racing."
