Come to Daming with military supplies

With a distance of 500 meters for a mile, it was completely within the range of the Bayi Bar. Under the explosion of the gunfire, the bullets in the gun chamber flew out, like meteors flying across the sky, drilling into one and another. A Tatar cavalryman who was coming with a knife was covered with blood.

Mazamu, who was rushing to the front, did not escape the rain of guns. One of the bullets was shot right on his chest. The moment the fatal bullet entered his body, Mazamu, who was charging, screamed loudly. Mu Zhishi was stunned, the saber dropped, and his whole body slid down on the horse's back like a poisonous snake without bones, then fell from the horse and fell to the ground, bringing up waves of dust.

Even when he died, his body was still rushing towards the mercenary camp, showing his determination to be ashamed.

Before the generals died on the battlefield, the ubiquitous bullets ran across the iron cavalry, one Tatar cavalry after another was shot and fell off the horse, and one Tatar cavalry after another lost their lives while shouting to charge life.

All this happened so fast that many people couldn't react in time.And as the cavalry rushing to the front fell off their horses and died one by one, the Tatar cavalry who were still applauding their horses finally felt fear. The scene of being shot to death without even a chance to fight the enemy is What no one wants to see, and what no one is willing to meet.

"Quick, quick, withdraw, withdraw!" Knowing that he was rushing forward, he was only seeking death.More and more Tatar cavalry reined in their horses, turned their horses' heads, and started galloping on the way they had come.

Among these Tatar cavalry, there are some warriors.They are not as afraid of death as ordinary people, but this kind of unequal massacre, such a grievous way of dying, is definitely not what they think or want in their hearts.So at this moment, they would rather be cowards and turn around and run away than rush forward half a step in order to show their bravery.

As if they had expected that they would do this, the cavalry of the recruit division in the front moved out of the way again, and Ma Xiongshan, the head of the light cavalry regiment, shouted, "Comrades, follow me!"

The light cavalry moved.

The biggest change in the new army is the possession of the heavy cavalry regiment and the light cavalry regiment.As the name suggests, a heavy cavalry is full-body armor, which focuses on opening and closing skills, rushing into the enemy's formation like a torrent of steel to kill the enemy; Apart from sabers and crossbows, there are few other things. What is needed is to hunt down the enemy cavalry at the fastest speed with the lightest equipment.

The movement of the light cavalry group represented the beginning of the hunt.

After Ma Xiongshan yelled loudly, he saw countless light cavalry flying out like arrows, darting towards the distance. While they were galloping wildly, the bows and crossbows in their hands were not idle, one arrow after another was shot in the air, and they were chasing While chasing and killing the defeated enemy cavalry.

The sudden sound of the muskets and the sudden attack of the light cavalry hit the [-] cavalry led by Gore hard.

I thought that the cavalry would show their strongest combat power after rushing to a distance of one mile. I never thought that the mercenary cavalry was full of dangers behind them, and they stepped aside again and again, giving them different experiences time after time.It's all right now, first he was stunned by the musket, and after waiting for him to turn his horse's head in time, the enemy cavalry behind him quickly chased him again, approaching with bows and arrows, seeing a soldier under his name being shot by bows and arrows, the whole person was taken by surprise. Immediately fell to the ground, his heart was bleeding, but he couldn't do anything.

8Chapter 17 Difficult to defend the city

It is not terrible to underestimate the enemy, but the terrible thing is that now his cavalry has been beaten and scared, and they have no fighting spirit. With such a cavalry, it is so difficult to stabilize the army's morale and turn back to fight again.The only option is to rush all the way to the Tatar camp, hoping that the opponent will not chase too hard.

Sure enough, the light cavalry did not pursue too far, and stopped after only six miles.Ahead is the Tatar army camp, and the opponent may mobilize a cavalry army to counterattack at any time. Although they are light cavalry, growing at a fast speed, they are not worried about being overtaken, but unnecessary disputes are meaningless.

The light cavalry retreated, the muskets were retracted, this time the trial ended with a big victory for the mercenaries.According to the statistics of the battle results, nearly [-] enemies were attacked, and more than [-] enemies were captured and wounded.

Not only was he defeated in the first battle, but General Mazamu was also killed on the battlefield. This result spread to Huboer's ears and caused outrage.In the big tent, the book case was cut into two sections by a sharp saber, and a roaring voice sounded, "Mazamu, this general will definitely avenge you."

Mazamu, who has guarded Saihan Mountain for many years, has worked hard without any credit, but when the Kuboer army first appeared and was about to show his talents, he was killed, which is really regrettable and tragic.For a while, morale in the Tatar camp was low.

In order to break the bad atmosphere, Hupoer roared twice, "Where is General Qige? Has he not captured Dalu City yet?"

Under the city of Dalu, the flames of war continued, countless ladders approached the city, and countless bows and arrows shot at each other in the air. Death, which is a big thing for human beings, seems so worthless and ordinary here at this moment.

As early as when the iron cavalry launched a probing attack on the mercenaries, the five thousand grassland infantry led by Qige launched a fierce attack on Dalu City.

It is said that the grassland cavalry is unparalleled in the world, and locusts roll over wherever they go, and no grass grows.But everyone didn't know that the trained grassland infantry was also an elite soldier. Their existence was originally born for siege, and their instructors were all famous generals with rich experience in siege operations.

The grassland iron cavalry relies on speed, and the Ming army guards rely on the city wall. Each has its own advantages, which makes the strength of the two sides tend to be balanced, and it is difficult for one side to be dominant.Until later, Ming Chengzu's five expeditions to the grassland opened the way of the Ming army's powerful iron cavalry. Under the repeated losses of Mongolian children, they also began to learn from the advantages of the Ming army and built offensive infantry.

The greatest ability of man is to learn and imitate.After Ming Chengzu passed away, the advantage of the Ming army's iron cavalry gradually lost, and the Mongolian siege infantry grew up.This time the five thousand infantry had this ability.Their teachers were the captured generals of the Ming army who had been breached in the city. Under the eaves, they had to bow their heads. In order to survive, they only taught skills, and few of them could refuse.

Because of this, the Mongolian army attacking the city was menacing. As soon as they appeared, they beat the Beiming army into a dizzy state. The three thousand Beiming new troops who were in charge of defending the city suffered heavy casualties. In the ears of General Wenfeng, he would not allow him to bring a thousand veterans and three thousand recruits back to the city to stabilize the battle.

On the battlefield, the biggest difference between recruits and veterans is the richness of combat experience.Often veterans with experience know what to do without orders. They can fight back freely, use their swords when they should, and evade when they should not.The recruits are not the same, they are like a stone mill that weighs more than a thousand gold, if you push it, it will go, if you don't push it, it will not move like a mountain.When such a recruit first came to the battlefield, he was already frightened by the breath of death on the battlefield. How would he know what to do without orders?

The recruits were defeated for the first time, the veterans went into battle, and the new and veterans supported each other. Ning Wenfeng's command ability was brought into play. He drove back the Mongolian infantry who had rushed to the city several times. .

In the City Lord's Mansion, the injured Furukawa was still resting on the bed, and Shi Wanshan, who had recovered most of his energy, was sitting in the hall with the guarding eunuch Deng Qiang, talking to the exhausted Ning Wenfeng.

"Eunuch Deng, Commander, the loss in this battle is too great. More than [-] new recruits were killed and [-] were injured. If this continues, the city will be difficult to defend. Why don't we retreat to the Xuan Mansion. The city walls there are taller and much easier to defend than this Dalu City." Complaining and asking tentatively, Ning Wenfeng had a look of hope in his eyes.

"No." Deng Qiang spoke first, "Maybe the two generals don't know that when Talu City was given to Daming by Duke Zhongdan, everyone in the imperial court applauded, and the people of the capital also took to the streets and fired firecrackers to show Congratulations. Everyone regards the acquisition of Dalu City as a symbol of the rise of my Beiming. How can I give up at this moment? If I really do this, I am afraid that no one else will be needed. It can crush me and several others to death."

As soon as Deng Qiang's words fell, Shi Wanshan, who was about to say something, shut up quickly.If this is the case, there must be no loss in Dalu City, otherwise, it will be the end of their political and life. At that time, no matter how great their ambitions are, they will be useless.

"Persist for a while. If it doesn't work, transfer all the new and old soldiers left in the Xuan Mansion. As long as we put on a defensive posture, no matter how fierce the Tatar army is, they will retreat in spite of difficulties." Shi Wanshan Thinking that there is a powerful mercenary army outside the city, I feel a lot of comfort in my heart.

Ning Wenfeng was just trying to ask, since he couldn't find a way, he didn't think about it.Regarding the mobilization of Xuanfu's soldiers, he hesitated for a while and said: "Maybe this is the only way to go, otherwise, with more than [-] veterans in the city, [-] new recruits may not be able to last for too long."

"Okay, let's transfer troops from the Xuanfu, first transfer [-] veterans and [-] new recruits." Deng Qiang finally made a decision.So far, there are only [-] veterans and [-] new recruits left in the Xuan Mansion, and that will be their last strength.

He made great efforts and suffered heavy losses. In the end, he got nothing. He had to stick to Dalu City. Even the original capital of the veterans was almost wiped out. I have to say that this time it was really a loss.This result made the three of Shi Wanshan silent for a long time, as if they didn't even have the interest to speak.

In comparison, the atmosphere in the Tatar army barracks was much better than in the afternoon.Qige has already reported the battle damage. During the daytime attack on the city, more than a thousand soldiers were killed and more than a thousand wounded. He only needs to rest for one night, and more than half of the battlers will still be able to participate in the battle tomorrow.In contrast, the Beiming defenders had more than [-] casualties, twice as many as their own.

As we all know, during a siege war, the side that is attacking the city often suffers. It is generally recognized that if you want to attack the city, you must have at least three times or more of the opponent's strength to try.This time the result was just the opposite. The loss of defending the city was more than double that of attacking the city. Even though the city was not captured, it was not a small victory.

Hubo'er's face looked better, and he encouraged Qige a few words, saying that he would continue to attack the city tomorrow, trying to take down Dalu City, and also find a shelter for the army.For him, Qige naturally nodded.

Compared with ordering to continue the onslaught against the Northern Ming army, Hu Boer was a little uncertain about how to deal with the mercenaries.Today's battle finally made him have a deeper understanding of the combat power of the mercenaries. While regretting not listening to Muren's words, he also made the decision to follow the other party's advice, that is, if he can't hold on, he just waits. Take down Dalu, and after you have a place to live, you will slowly figure it out.

But in order to prevent what happened during the day from happening again, at night, Hu Boer called another general, Hu Lin, and told him to go to sleep peacefully after preventing the mercenary army from stealing the camp.

Facts have proved that Huboer's worries are completely unnecessary.The mercenary who had won a battle during the day was sleeping peacefully in his barracks.For them, the battle during the day is inevitable. This is a temptation for both sides, even if there is no tomorrow today.

Once the temptation is completed and they know that they are not easy to mess with, the Tatar army will definitely be more secure, so that the mercenaries can sleep peacefully.Of course, there are still troops on duty at night, and some things are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

From darkness to light, a new day arrives, and Humang raises his account to discuss matters.All the divisions and regiment leaders below came out one after another to challenge the battle.Regarding this, Humang didn't say a word, but just smiled at the deputy commander beside him.Shebie also smiled and then said: "Today, the whole army rests and cleans the surrounding area of ​​the camp. If there is spare time, each division and regiment can practice on their own."

Not taking the initiative to attack, this is the result of the discussion between Humang and Shebie last night.Now is not a one-on-one time, either you die or I die, since there are three forces, if possible, of course it will be more refreshing to watch the tigers fight from the mountain.

Watching the Northern Ming army and the Tatar army consume each other, what's wrong with enjoying the success?

The words of farewell represented the meaning of the New First Army's military headquarters. At the moment, the other divisions and regiment leaders retreated angrily, each busy.Humang also notified the Sixth Young Master of his decision to part with him, and then sat and watched the situation change.

The Tatar army's barracks, the scouts were sent out for eight miles, and they stopped just before they reached the mercenary camp.After that, they stormed Dalu City with all their strength, with an attitude of swearing not to give up until the city was captured.In this regard, the Northern Ming army chose to defend the city with all their strength, and the commander Shi Wanshan personally boarded the tower, and replaced the commander Ning Wenfeng to defend the city, blocking the Tatar army's onslaught on the city again and again. Only one day later, Both sides suffered considerable losses.

Fortunately, that night, [-] veterans and [-] new troops from Xuancheng came to help, which temporarily stabilized the situation. If not, it would be extremely difficult to defend the city the next day.

In Shicheng, Yang Chendong just glanced at the telegram from Humang and put it aside.The new army has gradually calmed down, and the wise man gave up his leadership. He doesn't need to worry about anything. His eyes are more focused on the construction of Shicheng, and he put forward some very constructive suggestions.

Chapter 848 The Grassroots Yu Can

Shicheng is the first city built on his grassland, but it is not the last city.According to Yang Chendong's intention, this place should be built as a model. If we build a city here in the future, everyone can learn from it.And in order to make this model as perfect as possible, he had to put in more effort.

While building Shicheng, Yang Chendong was also not afraid to inquire about the Mongolian tribe in Mobei.

The Mobei Mongolian Division is the biggest threat to the northwest of Shicheng. They are different from the distant Huboer tribe. They originally belonged here and have a great ability to survive on this soil. If they are not suppressed, Sooner or later it will become a serious problem.Not to mention, now that there is a famous general like Fan Yuhai to assist him, it is really uneasy not to destroy him.

If you want to destroy a person, you don't just have to kill him, but you can run away with maiming.As the old saying goes, go up to attack the strategy, then attack the cross, next to attack the army, and then attack the city.

Yang Chendong chose the strategy of going to war, which is why when the beheading policy was implemented in Yidu City, he did not order Su De Khan to be killed, but only to hurt his body.

What he wanted was to create opportunities for Fan Yuhai. Facing an injured Khan, he believed that such an opportunity would be seized by a smart person and would know how to do it.It can also be seen from the information sent by the Security Bureau that Fan Yuhai did not disappoint.

After the defeat of Yidu City, Fan Yuhai followed the Mongolian army to the Mongolian tribe in Mobei, and made his home in Xi'an by the Yinma River.In order to stabilize the situation, the injured Su De Khan temporarily handed over the military power to Fan Yuhai, in order to prevent the mercenaries from pursuing the victory.

But as time passed day by day, the mercenaries did not appear. Sude Khan became nervous at the same time he was relieved, because he suddenly found that all the soldiers guarding him had been replaced suddenly. The people who used to be by my side disappeared, replaced by some strange faces.
