The effect of the tragic battle against the Turkut tribe appeared in the following days. From Yijin Holo to the city of Dongsheng, the Ming army was not attacked by the Mongolians. They only had some flies-like cavalry, regardless of day and night, but they were afraid of the terrifying weapon that could hit a hundred feet away, and did not dare to get too close, and only harassed them on the periphery.

The Ming army ignored this level of sacredness and maintained a good marching force, traveling forty miles a day. Then they set up camp and went to the village, and walked steadily for three days. On the evening of the ninth day of the lunar month, they arrived at the city of Dongsheng on the evening of the ninth day of the lunar month.

The Mongolian army had already gathered on both sides of the east and west outside the city, and had been waiting for a long time. The brave Mongolian nobles would not admit that they were afraid of the Ming army, and they did not take the initiative to attack before. The explanation to their subordinates was to wait for their leisure and wait for the Ming army to arrive at the city of Dongsheng and have not yet established a foothold, and launch another thunder attack!

No matter if they really think so, they can say it out loud anyway. Now that the Ming army has arrived, they can't drag it down any longer. Besides, they also know that after the Ming army set up a camp, it will be even more difficult to attack again. So they can only bite the bullet and order the attack at the same time. They want to give the Ming army a warning... In their opinion, this battle does not necessarily mean that many Ming army will be killed or injured, but they must severely hit the morale of the other party, so they put all the forces that can be mobilized on the field and launched a fierce attack from three sides.

More than 20,000 cavalry charged in groups, raising dust all over the sky. The scene was very spectacular, reminding people of the invincible cavalry during Genghis Khan, which added a lot of strength to the Mongolian army.

However, their opponents this time were not those arrogant and incompetent mediocre generals, but after Xu Da. Qi Jiguang, the best general in the Ming Dynasty in 200 years, and his command also gathered the most powerful 100,000 troops of this era, with the most exquisite equipment and the highest morale. For generals like Qi Jiguang, the strength of the troops under his command was proportional to the overall combat effectiveness of the army. He had been on guard against the Mongols for this move, so he always controlled the marching speed of the troops. He ordered the officers to repeatedly promote to the soldiers that when they arrived at the city of Dongsheng, it was the thought of the war.

Therefore, the troops were fully prepared. The chariot battalion and heavy battalion vehicles had already moved to the front of the defense line. The moment the Mongols launched an attack, they were connected from head to tail, forming three solid defense lines. The cavalry troops moved to the back formation to guard against the Mongols from the weak side, and were always ready to reduce the pressure for dangerous defense lines. Infantry soldiers rely on the chariots to prepare for shooting. This time, there were less than 10,000 spear soldiers among the tens of thousands of infantry in the Ming army, and the rest were musketeers equipped with bayonets... In addition to 10,000 flintlock guns, the rest were also equipped with combroach guns produced by various arsenals, with the quality greatly improved compared to the past. There would be no more of the same kind as before. A row of bullets hit the enemy without any harm.

However, the first one to fire was the eighty divine cannons directly under the Central Army, which were nearly 10,000 pounds long and weighed 3,000 pounds... This kind of cannon originated from Europe and was obtained by the Ming army from Buddhists. In fact, it was the "red-clothed cannon" of Shen Mo's original era. Of course, based on the principle of whom he named it first, he gave this name. This type of heavy front-mounted smoothbore cannon with a range of more than seven miles and is extremely powerful. Even after loading the grape bullet, it can still be

After arriving four or five miles away, the Mongolian army was still a black line in the sight of the Ming army, and hundreds of shells whistled out with the rumbling sound of cannons. Under the huge impact force, the bullet body decomposed into more than a dozen spherical iron bullets in the air. It immediately turned into a rain of bullets and smashed fiercely at the Mongolian army in the running. Anyone who smashed into the crowd could instantly knock down a circle of more than a dozen cavalrymen. With just one round of shooting, only four or five hundred Mongolian soldiers fell off their horses, either dead or injuring.

Through the Qianli Mile Mile, Qi Jiguang saw the results of the battle and nodded with satisfaction. He thought to himself that the Supervisor spent a lot of money to hire the instructor of the Franc to teach artillery, and indeed taught the children how to shoot artillery. If there were two or three rounds, it might have directly knocked the other party away.

It’s a pity... Qi Jiguang looked at the artillery position helplessly. He saw that there was a chaotic situation. After firing once, the artillery must pour water into the cannon chamber, extinguish the spark, and use dry cloth to insert the cannon chamber into the cannon chamber to dry it, then fill in gunpowder, ignition materials, stuff the shells, and then click and release it. These actions are quite slow and tedious, not including correcting the cannon position... Because of the strong recoil, each launch will cause a large deviation in the cannon position.

This is a common problem with front-loaded artillery. It is good to be able to fire one shot in two minutes, so when facing the cavalry, there is no time to fire the second artillery. However, Qi Jiguang brought them here, not for field battles. The only round of shooting can only be regarded as a gift from these big guys. The real king of field battles made a grand debut when the Mongolian army rushed to the distance of three miles!

Five hundred general cannons fired at the same time. The scene was much more spectacular than the volley of the previous round, and the effect was incomparable... Each cannon fired dozens of projectiles as big as peach kernels, creating a deadly hail on the head of the Mongolian army, and immediately exploded its formation. Whether it was a man or a horse, as long as it was hit, they would immediately lose their combat effectiveness. The Mongolian cavalry fell to the ground like dumplings. In an instant, the broken limbs flew across the battlefield, and blood and organs danced around, forming a Shura hell!

Unlike the Shenwei cannon, the General cannon was made of Daming. It is made of pig iron and is derived from the Tiger Cannon. It is divided into three types: large, medium and small, three or five feet long and weighs three or five hundred kilograms. In order to prevent the explosion of the chamber under the premise of light weight, there are multiple wide reinforced iron hoops on the barrel, and large iron claws are provided at the mouth. The gun body can be fixed to the ground with large iron nails to reduce the recoil generated after firing, and overcome the risk of the original artillery injuring the gunner after firing. After firing, it does not need to correct the gun position after firing. More preferable is a vehicle-mounted cannon with high front and low rear wheels. It can be directly fired on the vehicle, which has strong lethality to cavalry infantry. Many of its designs are more advanced than European artillery.

This cannon is convenient for maneuvering in the mountains, forests and water networks, and can control dangerous passes. One shot can shoot hundreds of small projectiles or dozens of larger projectiles. It has a large spread surface and can kill more effectively than the Fran aircraft and attack enemies in a dense formation. It played an important role in the anti-Japanese war. When Qi Jiguang went to Jizhen to train troops during the Longqing period, he creatively equipped this cannon with cavalry. Moreover, the latest production cannon absorbed the advantages of Western artillery and was lighter in the case of better reliability. He also equipped his sights to overcome the biggest drawbacks of being unable to accurately aim and became the best cavalry cannon in the world.

Under the influence of Shen Mo, Qi Jiguang attached great importance to artillery. He reached the point of being unparalleled in the world. When the Mongolian cavalry paid a heavy price and finally rushed within two miles, more than a thousand Francs added to the chariot got angry. This small-caliber artillery, or large-caliber fire system, had the power of this small-caliber artillery, or the large-caliber fire system, could not be compared with the brothers. However, the shotguns they fired were dense and accurate, and could be continuously fired by what the cannons could not do!

This is because the Franc machine has a unique structure, which consists of a mother and a child gun. The mother mirror has a slender tube with a small diameter, and is equipped with a sight and a door, which can aim and shoot long-distance targets. There are gun ears on both sides of the body, which can place the gun body on the bracket, which can adjust the shooting angle, so that it can obtain a higher shooting accuracy. The back of the body is thicker, and there are long hole slots to load the child gun... The child gun is similar to a small musket. Each mother team has five to nine child guns, which can be preloaded and ready for use. It can be installed in the parent mirror in turn to fire during combat, thus increasing the firing speed.

Although this will have limited power due to insufficient airtightness, under the three-layer firepower mode designed by Qi Jiguang, there are two types of cannons to take care of long-range weapons. The Franc only needs to deal with medium-range enemies, so it can play to its strengths and avoid its weaknesses and cause the greatest damage.

In fact, this kind of firepower that was almost continuous was the most severe blow to the Mongolian people. Although the cannon was powerful, it could only be done with one sound, and it could pass by it. It could still be held back by gritting its teeth. But this continuous weapon that sprayed projectiles completely collapsed...

Amid the deafening explosion, a large number of extremely sharp iron nails were scattered, and shrapnel projectiles were sprayed out in various ways. Under the explosion impact of high temperature and high pressure, the splashed iron nail shrapnel was like a rain screen that could not be avoided. They sprayed towards the Mongolian cavalry in front of the formation, blowing them and their people and horses into a bloody and bloody state. Among the explosion and the rolling smoke, the Mongolian soldiers on fire screamed shrillly, and the war horses rolled and wailed on the ground, like a Shura hell!

This situation made the Mongolian nobles watching the battle on the distant high slopes unable to bear it, especially Buyanggu and Bat, who suffered heavy losses, shouted that Basang would give an order to withdraw his troops.

"Will so many people die in vain when retreating at this time?" Basang said with red eyes: "It's going to be reversed soon, believe me!" He was frightened and finally comforted the two of them. He continued to watch the terrible battlefield and waited for the change of the battle situation.

However, what was waiting for was the Ming army's Longqing-style rifle joining the killing. The dense and precise projectiles, although there was no momentum of artillery fire, caused the number of people to be killed to rise rapidly. With just one volley, thousands of cavalry fell off the horses and thousands of war horses soared into the air. Then they fell to the ground with injuries.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry showed the excellent qualities of Genghis Khan's descendants. In the face of huge casualties, they were afraid of death and moved forward. They were only welcomed by more than the expensive Longqing style. Compared with the expensive Longqing style, the coercion was the most popular weapon in the hands of the Ming soldiers. Although the rate of fire and range could not be compared with the former, they were successful because of the dense projectiles. Shen Mo also made a ruthless move and sent all the weapons produced in the nine arsenals within two years to the Futa Army, making the firearm equipment of this army far exceed that of any army in the world in terms of quantity and quality.

The elimination of cold weapons is an irreversible historical trend. There are only three reasons why this cannot be achieved. First, the quality of hot weapons is too poor. Second, the quality of the army is too poor. Third, the commander is an idiot. The current reorganized army is obviously not related to these three factors...

However, the dense cavalry team still ran forward fearlessly. The cavalry on the horse shouted the name of Genghis Khan and prayed to His Majesty the Holy Lord to give them courage and strength to eliminate these terrible invaders!

Finally, the cavalry in front rushed to only fifty meters away from the Ming army. They stopped. They raised their bows and arrows that had been set up early, and shot densely at the Ming army behind the chariot formation at the fastest speed in their lives.

Unfortunately, they met the Qi family army, who was never afraid of the coming rain of arrows, the front row infantry wearing chain mail were silent and unmoved, and they accurately shot with their Longqing style. The chain mail could well resist the power of bows and arrows, but the leather armor on the Mongolian army was useless in front of the projectiles. In the dense three-layer musket shooting of the Ming army and the Fran aircraft near jet, the Mongolian army finally stood at the position, but in the blink of an eye, the first row of troops was soon killed and injured.

So the Mongolian cavalry stepped forward again. At this time, the Ming army's artillery was loaded again. Accompanied by the rapid and sharp alarm, the Ming army soldiers lay down together, and hundreds of general artillery fired a round of shotguns at a distance of thirty steps.

The Mongolian cavalry fell like harvesting wheat, and the battlefield became silent in an instant, and all the courage was destroyed with this round of artillery attacks. The Mongolian army in the middle stopped...

But in the area where the firepower of the Ming army on the left and right wings was relatively weak, the Mongolian army finally rushed to the front and the hand-to-hand combat began. The front row of Ming army's muskets were equipped with bayonets. After the last shot, they directly used the muskets as long-lasting spears. These most elite death-going soldiers were all veterans who had been on the battlefield. They stood firmly on the chariots and used the length of their weapons to bully the Mongolian army holding sabers. Behind them were the only cold weapon unit of the Futao Army. They held a spear and helped the war, which made the Mongolian army unable to take advantage.

After rushing to the enemy's formation with great difficulty, he was blocked by the chariot and could not break through the enemy's spinning line. Even the most tenacious army collapsed completely. The moment the horn of withdrawal sounded, the Mongolian army allocated the horse's heads and drove out of the battlefield at a faster speed than when they came.

The Ming army naturally used fierce guns and cannons to bid farewell. When the Mongolian army retreated three miles away, the Ming army's divine cannons finally spoke again. They overturned a large number of people. The Mongolian army was completely scared and fled for dozens of miles to escape from the Ming army as far as possible.

It seems like a long time to speak, but in fact, from the launch of the Mongolian army to the withdrawal of the troops, the sun was just a short moment from the time it was almost down to the mountain, and the Mongolian army was dead, with corpses everywhere, and it was estimated that it was five or six thousand. Fortunately, it was dark and the Ming army could not send cavalry to pursue it anymore, otherwise it would be unknown what it would be like.

This battle was completely beyond the imagination of all parties. The city was finally able to muster up the courage to live and die with Jinong City. Noyandara, who was pale and pale, murmured, "Devil, Devil..."

Even the Ming army itself couldn't believe it. This was still the number one enemy of the Ming Dynasty, so why was it so vulnerable?

The only person who can stay awake is Qi Jiguang. He knew that these Mongols in Hetao had never seen their own car array, nor had they experienced the power of the real firearms. They came rashly and of course they would have their heads bleed. After this time, the Mongolian army would definitely not hit the stone with eggs again, so there was nothing to be excited about.

He ordered his subordinates to immediately clean up the situation of the war and treat the wounded. The troops that had not participated in the war quickly set up camps to establish defenses to prevent the joy of being sad and being attacked by the Mongols who did not participate in the war would be too shameful.

When the camps and camps were established, they set up large tents. It was already late at night.

The charcoal fire was burning in the commander's tent, and dozens of candles as thick as arms shone brightly inside and outside the tent. Qi Jiguang and Liu Xian and several generals stood in front of the sand table, while reviewing the terrain and listening to the scout's report. According to investigations, there are five tribes of the Mongolian army gathered in the Dongsheng area..., including the Ordos headquarters, and its three nearby tribes in the east and west, and the Darhut tribe in the south were destroyed. Naturally, they will not fight again. In addition, the Urat tribe that arrived yesterday had a total of more than 35,000 people.

But these people were not in one place. More than 10,000 people from Ordos headquarters were guarding Dongsheng City, and the other four were stationed twenty miles east and west outside Dongsheng City. Obviously, although they did not want to be trapped in the city, they also listened to Noyandala's persuasion and echoed the city on the outside. However, after being hit today, they suffered heavy losses. It is hard to say how much support they could provide to the city.

After gaining a general understanding of the enemy situation, Qi Jiguang discussed the attack arrangements of the next day with Liu Xian and others... The biggest obstacle is that after the construction of two generations of Jinan, Dongsheng City was high and deep, with perfect defense. If it was a strong attack, the losses would definitely be great, so the generals had a lot of controversy about what plan to adopt. Especially after a complete victory, they were reluctant to lose more officers and soldiers under Dongsheng City.

Halfway through the discussion, the personal soldiers came in to report that there were people from the Jinyiwei who had reported major issues. This expedition was very clear about the situation of the Mongols. Thanks to the secret work of the Jinyiwei for more than three years, most people did not understand it, but Qi Jiguang and others knew it well. Moreover, Qi Jiguang knew even more. The Jinyiwei, who was responsible for military intelligence, was the old man who came out of the Fufu Department, and he knew the most. At this time, there must be sufficient reasons for coming to disturb him.

The meeting was suspended, and Qi Jiguang ordered the deputy generals and the staff to retreat first, and only he and Liu Xian stayed, and then asked the Jinyiwei to come in.

It was Lu Gang who came in. The wind and sand outside the pass had already brought the face of this young man to life. His long-term underground work made him become more capable and silent, and standing there was inconspicuous.

"I wonder what this priest calls him?" Qi Jiguang personally poured him a bowl of hot tea and asked with a smile.

Lu Gang took the tea, but he didn't touch his lips. He said lightly: "If you fuck our industry, you don't have a name, only a code name, please don't blame the 'Gray Wolf'."

"Gray Wolf, a good name." Qi Jiguang smiled and said, "I wonder what advice did the Gray Wolf brothers come here to give me?"

"I am here to offer the general the strategy of winning the East Victory." Lu Gang's voice was not loud, but it made Qi Jiguang and Liu Xian feel energetic.
