Kong Youde, Shang Kexi and Geng Zhongming's Han army flag Tianyou Army, and Tianzhu Army set up 120 red barbarian cannons and 200 general cannons two miles away from the Shun Army position, and launched a fierce shelling attack at the Shun Army walled city ahead.

The Eight Banners of the Han Army ignited the cannons, which were like lightning and thunder. More than 300 cannons, the first wave of cannons made a deafening roar, thick white smoke, and large squirts of large and small splashed out, covering the artillery positions in front. Black iron balls of all sizes pulled out low and straight ballistics and roared towards the Shun Army positions.

The Shun Army soldiers hiding in the trench were stunned and watched countless shells flying towards them in horror. The momentum seemed scary.

"Ah!" Many people screamed in horror. A large part of these Shun Army infantry were surrendered by Ming Army, and some were refugees. Have these mobs ever seen such violent artillery attacks? The Qing artillery battalion in this era was far greater than that of the Ming Army. The previous Ming Shun Battle was mostly small cannons such as Franc, tiger squat cannons, with red barbarian cannons and general cannons, and they were all used in small batches. Have you ever seen such large-scale heavy artillery bombardment?

Although these soldiers were comforted by Zhao Peng before, saying that as long as they hide in the trench, the Qing army's cannons could not do anything to them. But many people were still very unsure: even the hard stones could not withstand the bombardment of the cannons, and the soft soil and sandbags protecting themselves. Can they protect themselves from safety?

The artillery shells fired by the Qing army hit the mud and ground, bounced up on the ground, and hit the ground again, plunged into the mud and stopped moving. Some artillery shells hit the sandbags, and after bounced a few sandbags, they were like mud cows entering the sea, and the kinetic energy of the shells was completely absorbed by the sandbags. The Shun Army soldiers hiding in the trench were safe and sound. Except for a few people who were scared to death who ran out, they were intact as long as they hid in the trench.

Zhao Peng explained to Li Zicheng: "The shells are driven by gunpowder, and their power is not comparable to human power. Therefore, the harder the object you encounter, the more powerful the shells become. If you encounter soft soil and sand, the soil and sand will absorb the power of the shells, and the power of the shells will be greatly reduced. This is to overcome hardness with softness."

Gu Junen next to him said, "If Jiannu approached and dug the city, wouldn't the soil and sand be easily dug out?"

Zhao Peng laughed: "Digging the soil? Do you think our people are dead? They come to dig, and we just fire! How many lives can they fill it?"

Anyway, it's very simple. They dig and we beat.

The seemingly extremely unsolid soil position withstood the Qing army's artillery bombardment. A large number of shells fired by the Qing army, except for smashing small pits on the soil, they killed several cowards who scared themselves, and had no effect.

This low small earthen castle is different from the tall city wall. Once the bricks of the city wall are broken, the rammed earth inside is exposed. As long as the rammed earth is aimed at the rammed earth and continuously bombarded, the city wall will soon be destroyed. However, this low small earthen castle is not as tall as the city wall, but is short and flat, with a very wide chassis. The red cannons and general cannons are both direct-fired cannons. The shells are located on the soil at a very small oblique corner. In addition to leaving a shallow pit on the ground, the most common one is to apply some skin.

As for the female walls used by Tucheng Tucheng Tucao to protect the defenders, they were piled up from sandbags and earth baskets. The city walls were originally short and were not easy to be hit. When the Qing army's shells hit the sandbags, most of the energy was absorbed, and basically had no effect. Even if several gaps were opened on the female wall, as long as the soldiers moved the sandbags and earth baskets over, they could be repaired immediately.

Seeing that the shelling had no effect, Duoduo had to order the infantry to launch an attack.

In the Qing army formation, dull horns sounded, and war drums rumbled. The Qing army in the Green Camp pushed the simple shield chariots that were temporarily built, and rushed up like a tide.

Originally, the hardworking work of pushing shield chariots was done by Baoyi Aha and now that the Qing army has entered the pass, they have become Baoyi Aha very early and have become the second masters. Baoyi's status is above the Green Camp soldiers. Although he is a slave, he is also considered a bannerman. Since he is a bannerman, his status is higher than that of the Han people.

Baoyi Aha, who used to do hard work, has now turned over and become masters. They hold whips in their hands and whipped the green camp soldiers who refused to work hard.

After a while, the Qing army shield chariot approached the bumpy ground in front of the trench. There was water deliberately put in the pits in many places. The heavy shield chariot crushed on the uneven ground, and the wheels were trapped in the pit filled with water. It was trapped inside. The Qing army green camp soldiers tried their best and the Baoyuns behind them, who were sore in their arms, but the shield chariot could not be pushed out.

"Fire the cannon!" Zhao Peng yelled.

In the Tucheng City of Shunjun Tubao, a general gun suddenly stretched out his muzzle from behind the sandbag earth basket and aimed at the Qing army's shield chariot formation.

The distance between the earth pit and the gun position is calculated. As long as each general cannon is loaded and adjusted according to fixed parameters, the position of the shell falling is just above the earth pit, which is just able to hit the Qing army shield vehicle that is trapped in the earth pit.

Just now, when the Qing army's Red Barbarian cannons and general cannons bombarded the Tucheng Tubao of Shunjun, the Shunjun cannons were hidden behind the sand pile. When the Qing army's shield chariot was pushed up, the Shunjun gunners pushed the cannons forward and adjusted the elevation angle and orientation of the muzzle according to the parameters. The general cannons were loaded in advance according to the parameters.

"Boom boom boom" The fire tongues spewed out from the earthen castles, and white smoke filled the sky above the Shunjun position. Dozens of five to six pound cannons roared at the Qing army shield chariot that was trapped in the mud pit.

The shells hit the shield chariot like hail. The shield chariots of these Green Camp soldiers were shoddy. The temporary simple shield chariots were incomparable to those of the Eight Banners Army covered in wet cowhide and iron. Even the excellent shield chariots of the Eight Banners Army were caught with general artillery shells, they could not resist it. After these shoddy simple shield chariots were hit by the shells, they immediately split into pieces. The wooden shield in front was smashed to pieces, and the crushed wooden pieces swept over the Green Camp soldiers behind like shrapnel.

After some shells penetrated the wooden shield, their remaining momentum did not diminish. They continued to plunge into the Green Camp soldiers. The shells carried afterimages and pulled out a bloodline. Wherever they passed, the Qing soldiers of the Green Camp flew everywhere.

Dozens of shield chariots were knocked down by general guns. The Qing soldiers of the Green Camp behind the shield chariot were yelling and screaming in terrifyingly. Even Baoyi Aha, who was holding a whip behind, was beaten to death.

The row of shield cars pushed in front was completely destroyed, and the second row of shield cars behind was stagnant. The Green Camp soldiers who were pushing the cart no longer dared to push the cart forward. They threw down the shield cars, turned around and ran back. No matter how hard the Baoyi Ahas beat them, they could not stop the Green Camp soldiers from tides, they drew their swords and cut off the heads of many Green Camp soldiers, and they could not stop the defeat of the Green Camp soldiers. Soon the Baoyi Ahas were swallowed up by the Green Camp soldiers who retreated like a tide.

"These men are still not good at it. They are much worse than our coats." Duoduo cursed.

The defeated Green Camp soldiers were soon blocked by the Eight Banners. The Eight Banners masters called out Baoyi Aha who was pushed back by the Green Camp soldiers and asked them to identify the Green Camp soldiers who escaped first.

Baoyi Aha and others worked very hard and quickly pulled out more than 200 green camp soldiers who escaped first. Although many of them may have been wronged, in the eyes of these Baoyi Aha, they looked down on these Han green camp soldiers from the bottom of their hearts. The Aha and others had long forgotten that they were once Han people. Since the Qing army entered the pass, they have risen to half of their masters, and naturally they feel that they are superior to Han people.
