While Zhao Peng was in the bastion where he was located, the three twelve-pound field artillery guns on a adjacent bastion two miles away also opened fire at the same time, launching fierce artillery guns at the Qing army artillery.

The two prisms are two miles apart. The twelve-pound field guns on the central turret above the two prisms can cooperate with each other and fire crossfire towards the same target.

In the second round of artillery bombardment, one shot hit the opponent's powder barrel, causing a big explosion. Although there is luck in it, it would not be possible to accurately hit the target without the high accuracy of the twelve-pound cannon and the skillful skills of the gunners.

After completing the second round of artillery, the gunners first reset the artillery, then put the wet mop into the barrel. While cleaning the barrel, they also cooled the barrel. Then they used a dry mop to clean the barrel. Then they stuffed the drug pack, loaded the shell, pierced the drug pack from the fire door, inserted the drug twist, and then completed the loading.

The third round of artillery was followed, but this round of artillery did not hit the target, and failed to destroy a Qing army artillery, only killing several Qing soldiers near the Qing army artillery position.

Three twelve-pound field artillery fired one round after another, and twelve rounds were fired, killing more than 60 Qing soldiers and destroying five red barbarian cannons.

The Qing army's North Korean gunners who were shelled by the defenders could no longer open fire at the Ming army's battalion without any scruples as before. When loading ammunition, they had to consider whether they were shelled by the Ming army, and the loading speed became slower. Originally, the red barbarian cannons were loaded very slowly, and were harassed by opponent's artillery, so the North Koreans became a little panicked when loading shells.

After three twelve-pound field guns fired for twelve rounds in a row, they also needed to stop. The gunners lifted a bucket of cold water, poured it into the barrel from the muzzle, cooled the barrel. When the barrel wall completely cooled down, the gunners raised the tail of the gun, poured out the water in the barrel, then put the dry mop into the barrel, wiped the barrel, and then carried out the next round of loading.

The performance of these bronze field guns has been much improved compared to the original iron cannon. After six to seven rounds of the original iron cannon, water must be used to cool the barrel, while the bronze cannon can fire twelve rounds in a row before it needs to pour water to cool down. This is because the thermal conductivity of copper is stronger than that of iron, so after each round of shooting, the barrel itself cools down much faster than the iron cannon, so the copper cannon can fire twelve rounds in two rounds of time, and only then will it be filled with water to cool down once, which greatly improves the rate of fire.

The Qing army's North Korean gunners were dizzy by the continuous artillery bombardment of the Ming army. Yin Hongxuan, the chief lieutenant of the Korean artillery battalion, stepped forward and said, "Belle, the Ming dog red artillery cannon is too powerful. The last brothers were killed and injured."

Yue Lebeile, who was only twenty years old, snorted coldly: "You Koreans are just incompetent. How can Mingdogs be able to hit you? Your cannons can't hit them?"

Yin Hongxuan looked helpless: "Master Beile, they are located on the high ground, and they are bombarding our army from a high place, so the range is naturally greater than that of our army. We are attacking from the top, so the cannons cannot hit them."

Yue Le snorted, turned around and called Zheng Guohan, a Korean general, and said: "General Zheng, you can order the infantry to attack quickly!"

The Korean general is different from the Ming general. The Ming general is the third rank, while the Korean general is the second rank, which is equivalent to the general of the Ming Dynasty. There is a general on the Korean general, which is the first rank.

Zheng Guohan had more than 15,000 soldiers under his command and more than 20,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilians, all of whom were very good cannon fodder.

"Zhe!" Zheng Guohan knelt on the ground and beat him up. Although he was unwilling to die in vain, he did not dare to disobey the orders of Beile of the Qing Dynasty.

In the Qing army camp, the gates were wide open, and black Korean soldiers rushed out of the camp. In front were auxiliary soldiers and civilians pushing shield chariots, archers and bird gunners were followed by archers and bird gunners, and behind were teams of sword players and spearmen.

Standing on the fortress and looking towards the Qing army, we saw a large area of ​​Qing Korean soldiers, covering the sky and out of sight. The war drums rumbled and the horns roared. The Korean offensive looked huge and amazing. But in fact, behind them, there were more than a thousand Qing army Eight Banners soldiers, including 120 Manchu Eight Banners soldiers, 300 Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers, and 600 Eight Banners Han soldiers. In addition, there were three thousand Green Camp soldiers following the Koreans. They were both supervisors and long-range support troops.

Although the Eight Banners and Green Camp soldiers who served as the Supervisor Team had only 4,000 people, more than 30,000 Koreans were driven up by the Qing army as cannon fodder, and no Korean knew how to resist.

To be honest, if more than 30,000 Koreans resisted, they would still have the power to fight with the 4,000 Qing troops, but these Koreans would have been scared by the mighty heavenly soldiers of the Qing Dynasty.

Since you dare not resist, then use it as a consumable.

When Zhao Peng, who was standing on a high place, saw the Koreans coming out in full swing, he shouted: "Jiannu and Bangzi are coming, the soldiers of the artillery camp, be ready for battle!"

There are six turrets on this large basin, the central turret at the highest point, two Sanjiao Forts on the side, and three concave forts on the middle and wings. Due to the use of new artillery, cross firepower can be formed between this large basin and another large basin two miles away. The two large basin support each other and can greatly damage the North Koreans.

Zhao Peng ordered his personal soldiers to send fireworks signals to the bastion two miles away to inform the turrets on the adjacent bastion to be prepared for combat.

As the Qing army's shield chariots slowly advanced, the central turrets on the top of the two bastions opened fire, and a total of six twelve-pound field artillery roared in turn, and the whistling shells smashed hard towards the Qing army's shield chariot array from the front and side directions.

The twelve-pound shells hit the shield car from the front and hit the shield board on the front at super high speed. The high-speed shells were like hammers smashing eggs, and they smashed the shield car's shield to pieces. The crushed wooden pieces looked like shrapnel, knocking down a large area of ​​North Korean auxiliary soldiers behind the shield car.

The shells that smashed the shield quickly dropped below the speed of sound, but still had a high speed of more than 100 meters per second. The shells smashed the shield and landed on the ground. The shells that were more than 100 meters per second fell to the ground and immediately bounced up, and the speed dropped to 70 to 80 meters per second, but still had a great killing effect.

After a shell smashed the shield board, it hit the shield frame, and smashed the entire shield frame to pieces. The sandbags piled on the rack fell to the ground one after another.

After the other two shells smashed the shield, they pierced into the North Korean auxiliary soldiers. Wherever they passed, a piece of bloody rain of flesh was blown away, and the broken limbs and legs flew into the sky.

At the same time, six shells flew from the side pierced into the crowd of North Korean soldiers behind the shield car, and rotated and collided at high speed in the dense crowd. After landing, they bounced and collided again, and then bounced and collided again, and everywhere they passed, they were invincible.

All six twelve-pound field guns on the two bastions were fired. While Zhao Peng ordered the twelve-pound guns to be reloaded, he issued flags to the six-pound gun position in the Triangle Fort below, ordering them to prepare to open fire.

Although the first round of artillery destroyed four Qing army shield vehicles and killed about 100 Koreans, these consumables continued to push the shield vehicles forward under the might of the Eight Banners and Green Camp soldiers. When they entered a distance of about a thousand meters, the personal soldiers beside Zhao Peng shook the small flag in their hands and issued the "fire gun".

After receiving the order, four triangular forts on the two bastions opened fire at the same time. A total of twenty-four six-pound cannons spit out flames. The whistling shells smashed into the Qing army's shield formation in both the front and the side.

A total of twenty-four shells were smashed into the Qing army's shield formation like hail. Only a sound of wood was heard, the shield plate of the bombed shield was broken, and the shield car that was hit by the wheel and frame was tilted to one side.
