Finally, the news of the government troops being dispatched came, and a large number of troops from Shenji Camp advanced slowly from Jiujiang City to the west.
Zhu Heng sent a large number of scouts to inquire about military information, and the two armies encountered small-scale conflicts in various places.
The main force of the Shenji Camp marched from the front, and the various units were deployed very closely and went hand in hand to help each other. It was a regular way of marching and formation. There was no cleverness or risk in the steady progress.
However, half a day later, Zhu Heng got the news that the right wing of the official army was greatly protruded from the linear deployment by thousands of people from the Jiang army and left the main camp.
Zhu Heng summoned all the generals above to command the army and briefly discussed it.
Some people think it is a fighter jet that can quickly rush to the protruding parts of the north of the official army and achieve a victory with the advantage of local forces; the reason is that various departments of the official army may have problems in coordination, and the mistakes caused the right wing to be protruded.
However, some conservatives believe that this move is too risky. If the main force of the Suzaku Army's attack in the north is slightly blocked, they are likely to face an unfavorable situation where the main force of the enemy's central army catches up and attacks from the flanks.
After Zhu Heng temporarily weighed the pros and cons, he decided to adopt a more conservative strategy.
As a core member of the Senate, he knew the strategic secrets of the Xiangwang Group well and could not ignore the serious consequences of the Yongding Camp once it was defeated; if the elite troops of this Suzaku Army were lost here, the consequences would be even more devastating...
He had considered before that if Yongdingying Camp really lost its money in Jiujiang Prefecture, he would not be able to bear this responsibility, so he could only commit suicide on the spot and apologize.
So he ordered the Third Army of Yongding Camp to go first and attack the right wing of the official army to the north; the main force was deployed on the front side to monitor the actions of the official army.
If the main force of Shenji Battalion catches up and threatens the flanks of the Third Army, Yongding Battalion can also advance the blocking from the front as a reinforcement and support the Third Army.
The encounter arrangements of the left wing (the right wing of the official army) were Zhu Heng for the early tentative considerations. If he wins the first battle, he can greatly improve his morale. If he fails to win, he can escape unscathed with the reinforcements of friendly forces.
The Third Army, led by Zhang Chengzong, was already on alert for war. After receiving the official written order of the Central Army, it quickly dispatched to the left wing.
The entire army had about 2,500 infantrymen, equipped with sufficient ammunition, and prepared twelve long-barrel cannons with six kilograms and several Franchise cavalry cannons.
In the afternoon, Zhang Chengzong's troops met thousands of people on the oncoming Shenji Camp. The two armies were nearly two miles apart and they each arranged their own formations. When they met a narrow road, they had nothing to worry about. They all set off their posture to do something.
Zhang Chengzong did not intend to approach the enemy actively, so he chose a position with a higher terrain nearby, and first unloaded the heavy artillery from the vehicle to set up an artillery position to stabilize the situation.
This is the first time this long-barrel heavy artillery has been put into actual combat. Although it has been tested on the school ground many times before, the generals have a clear understanding of its range, performance, etc., but it is still uncertain what effect it is actually used in battle formations.
The gun body weighs about 800 to 900 kilograms, the length is twenty times the caliber, the inner chamber is copper, the outer tube is covered with cast iron, and the maximum range can exceed two miles; that is, the formation of the official army is now within the maximum range of the cannon, but the opponent doesn't seem to know it...
After all, it was too early for the Ming Dynasty to see the Red Barbarian cannons with greater power, and people could never imagine that long-range weapons could hit two miles away within their cognition.
From a distance, the formation and queue of Shenji Camp are very low, and the clothing and armor styles may be relatively casual and outdated. Many military households bring their own clothes and items, and they are not very clean from afar.
On the other hand, the troops of the Third Army were very different. Most of the soldiers of Yongding Camp were in the regular army organization, and the whole body, from underwear to armor was a unified system for the public. Two or three thousand people were in a row, which was quite shocking to watch.
Some people wear brand new clothes and armor, and even soldiers wearing old clothes and armor have just taken a shower and changed their clothes...
The Vermilion Bird Army has some small rules, such as drinking water and salt when it is hot; and it is also necessary to wash your body and clothes before the war, because Zhang Ning believes that too much dirt on his body is injured and once he is injured, the wound will be more likely to be infected and will increase the mortality rate.
In addition, the first training content for the soldiers of the Suzaku Army to join the army is the queue, and then it is used to assassinate the firearms and spears. Therefore, the neat queue is the basic content, and people have already formed a habit in the army.
However, whether it looks good or not on the battlefield is obviously secondary. Yongding Camp, which has distinctive armor and military appearance, may not be able to fight than Shenji Camp.
After a brief confrontation on the battlefield, the official army first sent scouts to rush towards this side in dispersion.
At this moment, suddenly there were a few thunder sounds, the earth was shaking, and smoke was pouring on the cannon array.
The weapons of black gunpowder are not very powerful, but they use a lot of medicines and are very flamboyant. For a moment, the dangerous aura spreads to the battlefield.
The artillery near the two-mile land was able to increase the elevation angle and the accuracy was extremely low. After several artillery shots, all of them failed to hit the target, but some iron eggs had already flew farther away.
The loud noise stopped for a while, the observation whistle shouted, and the artillery guards adjusted the angle.
The second explosion was a volley of twelve heavy artillery fired in a round of volleys, which was even louder. Several artillery shots hit the enemy camp, but it did not seem to have any impact.
The government and infantry began to advance in the shape of a font, and then suffered a second round of artillery attacks, which also did not cause much casualties.
At this time, the long-barrel cannon is too high at a range of more than one mile and is not conducive to bounce, and the lethality is naturally greatly reduced.
As time passed, when the vanguard of the government army advanced one mile away, all the loaded heavy artillery had been waiting for them.
Between the lightning and thunder, all the heavy artillery fired huge roars, and the solid iron ball weighing six or seven pounds quickly flew towards the official army camp. Some shells hit the ground in front of the crowd, bounced up like tiles drifting water to continue flying; the other hit the crowd directly.
The dense crowd seemed to have a blood mark torn apart. The splashing flesh, flesh, broken limbs, and even the brain flowers were mixed in a blood-red fog, and they flew over the surface of the rice fields like sharp arrows, falling down all the way, and the camp of the official army was obviously shaken.
Even the main general Zhang Chengzong was stunned for a while when he saw the scene in the distance. It was really the first time that this inexplicable power was beyond cognition when it was displayed in front of people.
However, as one of the three major camps of the capital, the Shenji Camp and the elite of the Ming Dynasty were really not worthy of fame. After their camp was torn apart, they showed no sign of collapse, and there was not even a person to retreat. However, they temporarily stopped their overall marching and they wanted to reorganize their troops.
Zhang Chengzong soon realized that he had made a serious mistake.
The wall of the long-barrel heavy artillery is too thick and is a front loading with the breeze seal. After three consecutive launches, it cannot be dissipated in time. It must be stopped for a period of time before it can continue to be used; otherwise, it will be small to reduce the life of the artillery, and the reload of gunpowder may spontaneously ignite and injure one's own people.
Now the artillery array has fired three consecutive volleys, and the heavy artillery is temporarily unavailable...
Zhang Chengzong wasted two opportunities to kill and injure the enemy in large numbers, but he used the opportunity to remote blind ejection.
He hadn't realized that heavy artillery could exert such great power before, and this was also the consequence of failing to adapt to the new weapon.
No one on the left and right criticized him for his mistakes in the battle formation, but Zhang Chengzong was unconsciously covered with a hint of regret.
Sure enough, the vanguard of the Shenji Camp was unable to be repelled, and after a little rectification, the official army's artillery was also set up in front of the formation.
The anger of the artillery erupted again, and a large number of stone bombs flew towards the Suzaku Army camp from the opposite direction. However, the official army's artillery was still weak, and its hit was worse than the Suzaku Army's artillery. It was estimated that half of the shells were hit by the shells outside the area.
The shells tilted down from mid-air and suddenly smashed into the crowd, which was very scary; the stone bullets would break and explode when they landed on the hard ground, which would also make the soldiers panic...
It seems that the court still does not understand the principle of artillery bounce. The long-range artillery bombardment of the official army is all flying down from the air, imitating the experience of bow and arrow shooting, so the range of killing is very limited.
However, from the perspective of the vehicles and horses carrying artillery in the official army, they did not use the former general; because the cannons that had to be driven a mile away were too heavy and were not easily transported and erected.
It looks very similar to the Tiger Cannon in a less detailed information. It is probably a newly built field cannon by the Nanzhen Fushishi to replace the heavy and poor general who has too much performance.
The front army of Yongding Camp was not scattered after being bombarded. Although there were many casualties, they were as stable as Mount Tai.
Since the rebellion of Shimen County, Yongding Camp has been the oldest army of the Vermilion Bird Army. There are many veterans who have experienced all bloody battles. These people have seen all kinds of guns and cannons, and they have seen a lot of blood. Moreover, as the ace in Zhang Ning's hand, they have always had sufficient military expenditures, have done nothing for many years, have a long training time, and are firm in their will, so they are not so easy to disintegrate.
At this time, the distance between the officials and the soldiers was getting closer and closer, and they could probably see the faces of the people in the front row and the armor and equipment on them.
Most of the soldiers in front were tall and burly, with rough and dark skin on their faces, and they looked like the accumulated dirt had never been washed clean. The worn burlap under the iron armor and the ragged threads were still vaguely visible...
The so-called Beijing Camp looks like this. Many people think that the Beijing Camp is stationed in the capital city like a playboy, but the image of the capital's main war army left by Emperor Yongle is completely different.
Zhang Chengzong ordered the first line in front to rectify and fight back.
At this time, the sporadic rangers of the official army had already rushed to within fifty steps in front. The scattered cavalry were sometimes far and sometimes approaching, shooting arrows at this side from time to time. Occasionally, people with bad luck were shot down or screamed when they were shot in weak armor. The soldiers of the Suzaku Army were holding reloaded combs, but no one fired without authorization. People just silently put the position behind after the brothers in front fell.
The dense army of officials had reached a hundred steps away, and the cavalry retreated to the wings one after another.
Suddenly someone shouted, and a shocking shout came from the official army facing him: Tiger!
A group of burly black men glared at each other, and their terrifying power was terrifying.
Zhu Heng sent a large number of scouts to inquire about military information, and the two armies encountered small-scale conflicts in various places.
The main force of the Shenji Camp marched from the front, and the various units were deployed very closely and went hand in hand to help each other. It was a regular way of marching and formation. There was no cleverness or risk in the steady progress.
