After the Ming army successfully walked out of the water, the symptoms of soldiers infected with malaria gradually improved.

From the beginning of fear of chills and diarrhea, it was not only possible to march and rush.

However, the speed was much slower than the large army, so Zhu Youlang specially ordered people to reduce the speed of the marching.

His principle is not to abandon any soldier.

Speed ​​is not a problem. In any case, Zhu Youlang seems to be bound to win this battle in Changsha.

When they arrived near Xiangyin, the Ming army suffered its first resistance.

The Qing army set up an ambush along the river and transferred several red-clothed cannons.

Fortunately, the Ming army's provocateurs discovered it in time, and the Ming army immediately withdrew from the ambush circle.

Although nearly a hundred people were lost, the loss is acceptable.

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that the Eastern Captains would set up an ambush in Xiangyin. I thought they were already panicked and only dared to retreat and defend near Changsha Prefecture."

Li Dingguo said with some shame.

"The soldiers are in constant power, and the water is in constant shape. Isn't you blamed for this?"

Zhu Youlang said in harmony: "I see that the Donglu have set up a battle to fight us to the end. King Jin will set off firecrackers and invite them to have a pot of good luck."

Of course he is not blindly confident.

In terms of field battles, the Ming army's light cannon effect was not much worse than that of the red-clothed cannon.

The red-clothed cannon has limited its flexibility because of its heavy body. It can only fire from a fixed position and angle.

The Ming army's field artillery can adjust its angle at any time and use the advantages of terrain to bombard.

So once the Ming army took over the position of the Qing army, the red-clothed cannons became targets.

The Ming army could adjust its position at any time, making the Qing army confused.

"I obey the order!"

In the big water lake, Li Dingguo was full of anger and was venting his anger towards malaria on these thieves.

"Come on fire and beat me hard!"

Strictly speaking, the Ming army's field artillery was all in the Hu Ben Army.

But since the emperor has issued an order, Li Dingguo can naturally command the Hu Ben Army.

Zhao Xu immediately transferred to the artillery battalion according to the established model and aimed at the ambush point of the Qing army.

Although the details on the other side cannot be clearly seen from this distance, it can be seen that this is a temporary village built according to the mountain.

The village of this strength could not withstand the Ming army's several rounds of artillery bombardment.

Zhao Xu probably won't be able to beat them in three rounds, so they cried and called their parents.

As a lieutenant of the artillery battalion, Li Shitou was fully responsible for this attack.

He and Zhao Xu had a very tacit understanding. He immediately understood what to do after only giving a look on the other side.

Hehe, Brother Xuzi, please be fine. This time I will definitely blow Donglu to pieces.

"Start a fire!"

With Li Shitou's order, more than a dozen field cannons were fired together.

The Ming army's artillery shells were mainly grenades. Even if the shells could not kill the opponent immediately, the broken fragments could cause considerable damage.

In contrast, the solid artillery of the Qing army seemed very bulky.

As long as the Ming army finds a bunker, there is no need to worry about the bombardment.

This aberrant model quickly made the Qing army unable to withstand it.

The Ming army's shelling bombardment came one after another, without any intention of stopping.

A shell exploded in the Qing army camp, and immediately exploded and dozens of Qing soldiers turned into mud.

The Qing soldiers nearby were also not safe either.

Broken shrapnel pierced into their eyes, necks, internal organs, and screams of pain came one after another, one after another.

"hiss."

Tian Youfang, the Qing general who was in charge of the ambush, gasped.

This is too fucking fierce.

This is even more powerful than the Governor said.

With just this kind of playing, they will be beaten into pieces in no time.

Where did the Ming army get so many artillery?

"Be careful, General!"

Tian Youfang thought to himself that a shell was smashing at the handsome flag where he was.

Before he could react, his personal soldiers threw him to the ground.

Tian Youfang fell a dog and ate the mud, and ate a mouthful of dirt, making him look dirty.

He values ​​his image the most. It takes half an hour to get up every day just to sort out and wash in the mirror.

Not to mention this in the army, it is extremely rare among ordinary men.

Now Tian Youfang is so mentally blew up.

His braids wrapped around his neck three times, almost strangled to death.

Fortunately, the personal soldiers untied their braids in time, and Tian Youfang was breathing heavily, and it took a long time to calm down.

"The thing that bitch raised can actually ejaculate so far!"

Judging from the range of artillery, the Ming army's guns were no worse than the red-clothed cannons, and they had more guns, so the Qing army suffered a loss in this way.

The proportion of firearms in Tian Youfang's army is still very high. If even they can't hold on, it proves that the Qing army is not behind the firearms.

"Why are you standing there? Fight back at me! You can't lose your momentum!"

To be honest, Tian Youfang was very reluctant when he was sent to Xiangyin to block the Ming army.

What a good guy, even a strong city like Wuchang can't stop the Ming army's troops. They actually think Xiangyin can do it.

And he was the unlucky guy who led the army.

But there is no way, the military orders are like mountains.

If Tian Youfang had disagreed at the time, the Governor would not have hesitated at all, and would definitely have ordered someone to push him out and behead him immediately.

Anyway, Tian Youfang had already decided that he could ask him to come, but he would not hold on to him.

Seeing that the situation is not good, he will run away immediately if he can't beat him.

Of course, you have to try it out, otherwise I don’t know the difference between them and the Ming army.

The Qing army artillery soldiers gritted the bullet and used cold water to cool the artillery.

Although the red-clothed cannon is very powerful, it has a fatal disadvantage, that is, it must be cooled down with cold water after each firecracker.

This will lead to a long interval. Facing the fierce attack of the Ming army, there is only the power of parry and no ability to fight back.

Now is the stage of artillery bombing between the two sides, and the Qing army can still support it with a tough needle.

If the Ming army launches a charge, the Qing army will really be in a big way.

"Everyone has cheered me up very much. If we release the Ming army, we will not be able to survive!"

In order to stimulate the army's desire to fight, Tian Youfang portrayed the Ming army as a group of evil villains and a demon who killed people without blinking.

He hopes that the soldiers can improve their combat effectiveness even because of fear.

Overall, the army under his command still has the power to fight, and he doesn't want to decide the outcome in just one round of confrontation.

"The Governor said that those who kill Yongli will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, and those who kill Li Dingguo will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver! Take off the head and cash it immediately!"

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, but Tian Youfang drew a big cake.

Sure enough, hearing such a generous reward, the Qing soldiers showed a look of greed in their eyes.

What does ten thousand taels mean? I can’t spend it all in my life.

Good, I never thought that Can Ming’s fake emperor’s head is so valuable!
