Chapter 121: Shelling Sees Prestige
"Alright! Brothers! Get on your horse and charge me! Let these southern barbarians see how powerful we are!" Chen You put on two layers of heavy armor, shouted loudly, stepped on the stirrups, and flew to the ground.
He jumped onto the war horse, which immediately neighed. Chen sometimes lifted the reins of the horse in a very naughty manner, letting the front hooves of the war horse leave the ground, and leaped up its front body, creating a rather grand image.w w.
vm)
The rebel soldiers and generals also mounted their horses one after another, and began to wildly shake the swords and guns in their hands, roaring loudly, and began to cheer themselves up.
At Chen You's order, more than a thousand rebel cavalry began to urge their war horses and slowly rushed down the slope. The speed was not fast at first. The war horses were only walking slowly, and gradually began to adjust to fast walking, and then
The war horses began to accelerate to a canter state, and the war horses began to get excited at this time. After resting, and before the battle, the war horses also had to be adjusted to a more excited state. Each war horse snorted and began to follow the knight's restraints.
, gradually adjusting the speed of the horse's hooves.
More than a thousand rebels gathered into a horizontal formation of several horses, keeping a certain distance from each other. Opposite the Yu Jiajun, they formed a formation of about one mile wide, facing the Yu Jiajun formation.
Rushed over and killed him.
Yu Xiaotian looked at the actions of the rebel cavalry and nodded secretly. He knew that this group of cavalry was indeed an elite cavalry. It turned out that they were all Han people. They had followed Mao Wenlong in Liaodong and fought countless bloody battles with Jiannu.
, but it was precisely because of the mistakes of the Ming court and Yuan Chonghuan that Mao Wenlong was accidentally killed, causing the entire Dongjiang Army to fall apart.
These old members of the Dongjiang Army were indeed warlords. In fact, they had little loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. When Mao Wenlong was here, they were loyal to Mao Wenlong. However, after Mao Wenlong was killed, most of them were dissatisfied and reported to the court many times.
, please Chongzhen vindicate Mao Wenlong.
But Chongzhen was a very face-conscious person. Even if he knew that Yuan Chonghuan had mistakenly killed Mao Wenlong, he privately felt it was a pity. However, if he was asked to vindicate Mao Wenlong, he would never be able to do it, because vindicating Mao Wenlong would be tantamount to denial.
What he did at the beginning.
When Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, he invested all his trust in Yuan Chonghuan. Even if he was unhappy, he did not reprimand Yuan Chonghuan for it. In order to support Yuan Chonghuan, he even affirmed Yuan Chonghuan's approach and publicly declared that Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong.
right.
But now it has been proven that Yuan Chonghuan is not a useful person. Five years in Pingliao was also a complete swindle. Under the influence of power, he did a lot of stupid things in Liaodong, so he dragged him out and cut him to pieces.
He regretted the way Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong at that time, but this could only be a private regret. Asking him to redress Mao Wenlong's grievances, he would never be able to do it. Chongzhen had one of the biggest flaws, and that was him.
He is too face-conscious and values his face more than anything else.
Regardless of how many times he has issued edicts to punish himself, he is actually trying to give himself a pat on the back. He will never admit any real wrongdoings. In his mind, as an emperor, he must be visible to everyone.
Among them, they are all wise men. In the history of youth, what must be left is a high-level image without any flaws. If there are any mistakes, they are from the bottom. If you do well, they are all his!
And face can really kill people. It can’t be said that the Ming Dynasty didn’t have a little improvement in the end. If Chongzhen didn’t have such a good face, there would still be some opportunities to reorganize the country. But just because he had a good face, the Ming Dynasty ended up being defeated.
Brought into the ditch, it led to the destruction of the Ming Dynasty.
The former Dongjiang Army repeatedly asked Chongzhen to rehabilitate Mao Wenlong, but in the end they all ignored it. It can be said that each one of them was resentful towards the court, let alone loyal.
Later, Yuan Chonghuan deliberately wanted to divide the Dongjiang Army, which led to internal divisions and mutual exclusion of the Dongjiang Army. As a result, many Dongjiang Army soldiers were unable to gain a foothold in Dongjiang Town and had to flee to Denglai. Later, they were taken in by Sun Yuanhua, who wanted to use them.
To resist the slave-building army so that it can continue to be used by the imperial court.
However, this also created hidden dangers for the Denglai Rebellion. The Shandong people's rejection of the Dongjiang Army and the Liaodong people completely intensified the conflict, which eventually led to such a catastrophe, causing the entire Denglai area to be destroyed by the war.
It was completely changed beyond recognition, and it also caused a huge
A large number of officers and soldiers were lost, which made the Ming Dynasty's finances even worse. Shandong also completely lost its elite soldiers and horses. In the next few years, they could not stop the army of slaves entering the pass. Even civil unrest, they could not stop it.
cannot be effectively contained.
Yu Xiaotian had complicated feelings about these former rebels of the Dongjiang Army in front of him. They were once heroes of the Ming Dynasty and even the entire Han people.
They were the Han nation, they poured out their blood, and at that time they were worthy of everyone's admiration.
But now they have turned around and become traitors who massacred their own families. In addition to standing against the Ming Dynasty, they also stood against the people of the Ming Dynasty, so they became sinners.
There is no doubt that these generals are elite soldiers. Judging from their performance of riding horses into battle, we know that they have been on the battlefield for a long time.
It's a pity that they are not fighting against foreign aggression like Jiannu, but are fighting against him, Yu Xiaotian. It would be a pity, and he, Yu Xiaotian, would have to raise his butcher knife against them and kill them completely.
Erase it from this world.
Before he gave the order, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, but in an instant his eyes became firm again, and he slowly raised his hands and said: "Artillery preparations! The enemy troops rush into the designated bombardment area and fire immediately!"
The order was sent to the artillery position in an instant. The artillery officer immediately responded to the order and shouted loudly: "Every gun is ready! When the enemy enters the designated area, fire immediately! Listen to my order! Prepare... to fire the artillery!"
Three artillery companies, each equipped with ten standard field twelve-pound howitzers and two six-pound infantry long guns, a total of thirty-six cannons, had already marked out their firing ranges and pointed at the bombardment area.
When the rebel cavalry brigade began to enter the bombardment area they had designated within 400 meters, the artillerymen quickly ignited the fire door behind the cannon barrel at the officer's order.
More than thirty artillery pieces roared collectively in an instant. Balls of flames flickered on the artillery position, and clouds of gunpowder smoke rose up. The deafening sound of the artillery suddenly swept across the entire battlefield, shocking everyone's soul.
The shells flew out of the muzzle at a speed visible to the naked eye, and immediately scattered towards the rebel cavalry team. The pupils of the rebel soldiers and generals suddenly shrank, and there was a look of fear on their faces.
They felt that the cannons used by the Fujian officers and soldiers were not simple and seemed to fire very accurately. Moreover, they knew that in front of the artillery shells, no matter how thick the armor they wore, they were just like paper.
Stop these cannonballs. If they get caught, they will end up with broken corpses.
They dare not say that they have reached the point where they are ready to die, but they are by no means like ordinary rebels who are easily frightened by artillery shells. All the rebel soldiers fell to the ground and began to continue to urge their horses to accelerate. As for the next artillery shells,
Whoever is hit will be killed. If the life is bad, they will be killed by the shells. If the life is good, they will be unscathed. These shells have not been able to scare them away.
The artillery shells hit the rebel cavalry like a shower, immediately raising a cloud of blood mist. The artillery shells bounced off the solid, dry land and continued to fly forward, destroying anything that blocked their progress along the way.
All torn into pieces.
More than thirty artillery shells tore out more than thirty bloody alleys in the rebel formation in an instant. The war horses and rebel soldiers along the way were torn into pieces in an instant, with limbs and arms broken.
The blood of humans and horses splattered everywhere, and screams rang out. Many horses fell on the battlefield, slamming the knights on their backs to the ground. The injured horses fell to the ground, letting out shrill screams.
There was a loud sound, and there were a large number of injured people lying on the ground howling miserably. In an instant, the place turned into a hell on earth, with minced meat and human and horse entrails flying everywhere.
After the cannonballs landed, their speed continued to slow down, and the distance they jumped became shorter and shorter. At the end, the cannonballs were so slow that it felt like you could reach out and shoot them down.
A rebel soldier saw a cannonball flying towards him. Without thinking, he immediately waved a big ax in his hand and struck down with one blow, hoping to knock the cannonball to the ground.
But with just a click, one of the rebel's arms, along with half of his body, was torn off by the huge kinetic energy of the cannonball, escaped from his body, and shattered into slag. The big ax also exploded immediately and flew away.
It fell to the ground after traveling a long way.
Only then did the rebel feel the pain. He screamed and fell off his horse. After landing on the ground for a moment, there was no sound.
A war horse was hit in the chest by a flying cannonball. The cannonball penetrated the chest of the war horse and exited from the buttocks. The entire war horse was immediately hollowed out. All the internal organs were shattered into pieces, including the body.
It was torn to pieces, without even a sound, and fell to the ground with a crash. The cavalryman on his back was thrown to the ground and chewed up, and his neck was almost broken.
Scenes like this were constantly being staged in the ranks of the rebel cavalry. Many of them had their bodies splattered with a large amount of blood and flesh, causing them to scream in shock.
"Damn it! Spread out! Keep accelerating and charge me! Rush over! Trample their artillery array!" Chen was also frightened at times. He didn't expect the cannons of the Fujian army to be so sharp and able to hit so far.
Moreover, the blows were so accurate and so cruel, so he quickly cursed and barked orders. At this time, an ominous premonition began to arise in his heart.
