Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 701 Prestige
On the front line of Fuzhou, several important strongholds have pulled up barbed wire nets one after another, especially outside the city of Fuzhou, which has been dug like a spider's web, with trenches extending in all directions.The Ming army was obviously very impressed with the trench warfare led by Yang Menglong in Lushun City, and came to follow the gourd painting. The depth and width of the trenches, and the treatment of the excavated soil were exactly the same as those in the Battle of Lushun.The difference is that the Ming army in Lushun used wooden stakes to fix the barbed wire, but this time they used cement stakes; during the Battle of Lushun, Yang Menglong simply piled the excavated soil on his side to form a wall. The Dongjiang Army used sacks to pack soil into a parapet, which was much stronger than during the Battle of Lushun.However, the Dongjiang army didn't have so many mines, so they used deer villages instead. They were nailed into a tripod with extremely sharp wooden stakes and fixed on the outside of the barbed wire fence, stacking several layers.This thing looks shabby, but it will definitely cause serious injuries if it is hit by a galloping horse at high speed. The most terrible thing is that this thing is in the shape of a tripod. Even if it is pushed down, it is still a big obstacle. The only way is to split it For the attacking side, both of these are not difficult to do, but the problem is to obtain the consent of the Dongjiang Army.

Each stronghold is equipped with two Hongyi cannons and several large Frang machines. The Hongyi cannons are used to blast large equipment such as the Houjin Chariot, and the large Frang machine guns are specially used to fire grape bullets. The blocked enemy troops carried out large-scale destruction—the barbed wire barrier effect on the enemy troops was really good. Hundreds of thousands of them were blocked in front of the barbed wire fence, and dozens of them had to lie down once they were bombarded!Fuzhou City even set up four 85mm howitzers at the head of the city. These howitzers were bought from the Denglai New Army at a high price. They are powerful, have an extremely long range, and have high accuracy. Thousand elite soldiers.Even by the standards of World War I, Fuzhou's defense system is very solid and difficult to chew.However, the Dongjiang Army in the direction of Fuzhou did not show full confidence, because what they had to face was the elite of the Houjin Army with three banners. Face-to-face with Hou Jinjie's stronghold, it would be a lie to say that you are not afraid.After all, they still didn't have enough confidence to defeat Houjin, even though Houjin suffered a big defeat in Lushun.All the ministries can work together to go to the front line of Fuzhou to confront Houjin, and until now no soldiers have escaped. It is already very rare for the Dongjiang Army. They need an idol to give them more courage and stand for them. Dare to fight and win confidence... Obviously, there are no such characters in the Dongjiang Army, and looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there are very few such characters.

Li Weiluan naturally knew the situation of the army, so apart from expelling Hou Jin's scouts, he did not let the army leave the camp to fight with Hou Jin in the field.For him, the ability to keep Fuzhou intact is a great victory. Anyway, time is on the side of Dongjiang Army. If Fuzhou is not lost, the strength of Dongjiang Army will become stronger and stronger with time. It will become weaker and weaker. In this case, why would he take the huge risk to fight Houjinye Dilang and ruin the Dongjiang elite that he finally trained?He made up his mind to be a tortoise, and no matter how provocative Ren Houjin was, he would not move if he said he would not move. Anyway, I want rice noodles, rice noodles, and coal coal.

However, not everyone will approve of his attrition tactics.Right now, there are a bunch of civil servants in his central army tent, who are accusing Li Weiluan of having such a huge advantage but not daring to fight against Jin, which is really useless.

"Mr. Li, since the beginning of this year, the imperial court has allocated more than 30 yuan to Dongjiang Town's military pay, and there are as many as eleven Hongyi cannons. It can be said that the emperor's grace is mighty! Now that the enemy is in front of you, you But he is as afraid of the enemy as a tiger and huddles within the camp without daring to move. This is so disappointing!"

"That's right! With so much money and food, you can still hear it when you throw it into the sea. If you leave it to you, you won't even hear it!"

"Mr. Li, shrinking back to Fuzhou is definitely not the best policy. Blindly retreating will only make the Jiannu more arrogant! Only by attacking first, sending surprise soldiers to attack Yingkou, and burning the Jiannu's food and grass, can the Jiannu be forced to withdraw and protect Fuzhou. The state is comprehensive!"

"Yes! It's time to send troops to surprise Yingkou! The Dongjiang Army has a lot of sea ships, and there are many warriors who are good at sea battles. Why don't you dare to give it a go?"

"Cowardly, so cowardly! I want to report to the imperial court to remove you, a coward like a chicken, and replace him with a courageous person as the commander-in-chief!"

With a stiff smile on his face, Li Weiluan's face turned livid as he watched these guys talking.The commanding level of this group of guys is comparable to that of Yang He, but they stand in front of him in a majestic manner, gesticulating and talking endlessly, as if as long as they follow their plan, tens of thousands of slaves will be killed in an instant. The ashes and ashes disappeared in between, and the incomparable achievements were made!But he knew very well in his heart that this group of guys are very good at talking and they really made them come up with a practical plan. It is estimated that besides being blind, they are going crazy. If they follow their strategy to fight, it is their credit to win. If they lose or even wipe out the whole army, it will be because the frontline soldiers are too dull, and they will suffer a big defeat if they don't really understand their strategy. They are all right, and the ones who are wrong are always those soldiers who fought bloody battles with the enemy on the front line, expecting them to bear the responsibility?It would be quicker to strangle them and let them be reincarnated and re-educated.These guys fanned the flames in winter, saying that "the bandits can go and I can go", and they strongly encouraged the Dongjiang Army to take the initiative to take the Yingkou where Hou Jin's heavy soldiers were guarding, and completely recover the Liaodong Peninsula. They were all terrified, they jumped higher as if they had been injected with chicken blood!Li Weiluan has the urge to beat someone up, he really has had enough of these trash!

But when enough is enough, he must continue to endure it. Who calls him a military commander and these guys are civil servants?When a civil servant saw a military commander, he automatically raised his rank by three levels, and the ninth-grade sesame officer pointed at Qianhu's nose and yelled at him.

Those civil servants were shaking their heads and citing scriptures and speaking eloquently, when suddenly there was a loud commotion outside, at first it came from a distant place, indistinctly, but it swept across the entire Fuzhou in an instant, with thousands of voices The shouts of cheers were like a storm, overwhelming all voices:
"Champion! Champion!"

A civil official frowned, and shouted angrily: "The enemy is still yelling and screaming to shake the morale of the army? There must be an enemy's secret operation to instigate it, and a group of them must be killed fiercely!"

Someone immediately responded: "It's very true, this kind of yelling can easily cause roars and cause serious consequences. Investigate strictly, must investigate strictly!"

The door was pushed open, and a gust of cold wind came in: "Who will be investigated strictly? Do you want to investigate with me?"

This guy spoke quite loudly. As soon as he spoke, everyone turned their gazes over and saw a smiling baby face.Li Weiluan, Shang Kexi, Shang Keyi and other Dongjiang generals looked excited, they all stood up with a shout, and the voices of the civil servants pointing Jiangshan stopped abruptly, and they looked at each other with strange expressions.

It was Wen Chen's archrival, Yang Menglong, who came.

The arrival of Yang Menglong means that they have no chance. Let alone them, looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, how many people dare to pat their chests and say that they are better at fighting than Yang Menglong?The most important thing is that the Dongjiang Army obeys no one but this idiot. When he comes, the King of Heaven will have to step aside, and the officers and soldiers of the Dongjiang Army will only obey his command!

All the Dongjiang generals knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "The last general will see the champion!"

The sound is like thunder!

It has been a year, and these civil servants riding on their heads have never seen these Dongjiang town generals speak so loudly.

Yang Menglong waved his hand and said, "Get up, get up, I don't like this set." He casually rolled a civil official who was sitting in the chief seat aside, occupied his seat, sat down, crossed his legs and looked at the gang The civil servant smiled half-heartedly: "What, you are all counselors sent by the Ministry of War?"

A group of civil servants looked more and more uncomfortable and shook their heads embarrassingly.

Yang Menglong asked: "Have you ever fought in a war?"

Shaking his head again.

Yang Menglong's expression suddenly darkened, causing all the civil servants to feel a sudden shock: "Then I'm surprised. This is the Chinese military tent, a place where military affairs are discussed. You are neither counselors sent by the Ministry of War nor have you fought in a war. You are here." What are you doing here? You don’t care if you stay here, but you are gesticulating and shouting loudly? Your bones are itching, and you want to be beaten, right? Get out of here!"

A group of Dongjiang generals were taken aback. My mother, if you talk to civil servants like this, you can't offend them to death?But this is also Yang Menglong's consistent style. When did he bump into a civil servant from the capital and didn't he offend him to death?The Wenchen Group said that his arrogant and unreasonable memorials would be enough to smelt a grain of steel if they were burned as coal.If it were someone else, I am afraid that even if the head is not killed, he would have to lose his official position and go to jail, but this kid is still alive and kicking, making a little noise from time to time, which makes the Wenchen Group gnash their teeth with hatred, but there is nothing they can do.This time it was the same, the faces of those civil servants turned blue and white, they gritted their teeth, and wanted to explode, but when they saw the dogleg knife pinned to Yang Menglong's thigh, they trembled for no reason, and swallowed the words that rolled to their lips After going back, he finally stamped his feet in resentment, and walked out dejectedly, all of them looked like eggplants beaten by Shuang, where was the arrogance and arrogance when facing Li Weiluan and the others?

Those obstructive guys got out, and the Dongjiang generals suddenly felt that the air was flowing freely. Shang Keyi took a step forward and asked excitedly: "Marquis Champion, you are here to lead us to build slaves again, right?"

Shang Kexi rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "I knew the champion would come, except for the champion, no one can rule Jiannu!"

Yang Menglong shrugged and said: "Don't laugh too early, I haven't received a formal letter of appointment from the imperial court yet, and I haven't brought many people from the headquarters!"

Li Weiluan froze for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Screw his letter of appointment! As long as you come, the champion, our Dongjiang Army officers and men will be settled... Even if you come here alone, Lord Hou, you will be better than those who can only talk about it just now." Rotten Confucianism is ten thousand times stronger...Damn it, you actually asked me to send elite soldiers to attack Yingkou from the sea and burn the food and grass for the slaves? What's wrong with my brain!"

It seems that General Li's resentment towards those civil servants is really quite serious...
