For Ah Tian, this is a complicated emotion, on the one hand, he is dissatisfied with Jiang Yu's dissatisfaction with not entrusting him with important tasks, on the other hand, he is ashamed that Jiang Yugang can detect his inner timidity, and finally because Jiang Yugang takes care of him.

In the cruel war, Jiang Yu, who has always been ruthless, can only care so much about himself, which makes it difficult for Ah Tian not to have an extraordinarily happy mood.

When Jiang Yugang said that he was his woman, Ah Tian's lowered head was completely red, in fact, the two of them simply held hands at most, and nothing further happened, but Jiang Yugang's voice could not hear any hesitation about the relationship between the two.

"In that case, I will definitely protect Ah Tian's thoughtfulness." Chen Ziyu responded seriously.

Jiang Yuyan was still not at ease about this, and instructed again: "I don't want accidents to happen. ”

"Yes." Chen Ziyu nodded deeply, and at the same time secretly thought to himself that he had to check the manpower arranged.

After Chen Ziyu left, Ah Tian stayed.

Jiang Yugang stretched out his hand and put it on Ah Tian's shoulder, and Ah Tian leaned into Jiang Yugang's arms.

Seeing Ah Tian's reaction, Jiang Yugang also moved his arm, gently hugged Ah Tian, and then hugged him hard: "Ah Tian, don't think too much, war is a matter for soldiers, you just follow Chen Ziyu's arrangement in Mang Castle and do your best." ”

"Well," Ah Tian said softly, "I will be obedient and not cause trouble to your arrangement." ”

"This time, I can't protect you, you must protect yourself." Jiang Yu touched Ah Tian's head and said. Ah Tian's hair is soft and pleasant to the touch.

"Meng Yangcheng there... Is it really that dangerous? Ah Tian raised his head and looked at him in Jiang Yu's arms, his eyes were as clear as the lake water: "Obviously, we have won so many battles before. ”

"This battle will determine the victory or defeat of the Luchuan War in the tenth year, and it is not comparable to other battles," Jiang Yu shook his head: "It can even be said that I can play a role in this battle at most, and I don't have the ability to control whether it will succeed in the end or not." ”

Ah Tian listened to Jiang Yu's words, and her face couldn't help but have a thick look of worry, and she could feel that what Jiang Yu said was true: "That... Who has the power to influence it? Is it a commanding envoy? ”

"If only he had this ability," Jiang Yu smiled slightly, then his face became serious, and he said the answer in a deep voice:

"It's Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji, if he can send troops to arrive in time, Mengyang City will be able to defend it, otherwise, it will be a total loss, and we only have one way to withdraw our troops."

····································

Back in time to the day when Jiang Yugang got the information of Indoji, Jiang Yugang analyzed the situation with the greatest rationality, and basically came to a conclusion: it was impossible to resist the Luchuan army by relying entirely on the defenders of Mengyangcheng.

The defenders of Mengyang City were divided into two directions:

Part of the troops of Pingyiwei, Yuezhou Wei and Lu Liangwei, totaling more than 5,000 people, including about 2,000 soldiers, stationed in Nanmazhai in the northeast of Mengyang City, mainly guarding against the Luchuan army in the direction of Heping Town.

The other part is Qu Jingwei's troops, with a total of nearly 5,000 people, and there are also two stations of soldiers, responsible for the defense of Mengyang City.

The enemy's attack direction is also two, one is the main attack direction Namangzhai, the other is the auxiliary attack direction Heping Town, judging from the enemy's troop concentration, in the end, the strength of the two directions may be average, both are about 20,000 soldiers, but there may be a certain gap in military training and equipment level.

But in any case, the defenders of Mengyang City in either direction could not be the opponent of more than ten times the enemy, that is, if the status quo is maintained, the final result of the battle is bound to be defeated.

In the war, Mang Castle could only choose to bet in one direction, so Jiang Yugang naturally chose the most important direction of Mengyangcheng, and sent more than 600 of the most elite soldiers, whose training level was similar to that of the defenders of Mengyangcheng, but the equipment level was much higher.

Theoretically speaking, the newly organized Second Regiment of Mengyangcheng, which has a manning rate of more than 60 percent, is a unit that is ahead of the equipment level of half a century to a century in this time and space.

In 1523, that is, the second year of Jiajing, it was the first time that the Ming Dynasty came into contact with the bird gun recorded in history, which was the bird gun used by the Portuguese captured in the Battle of Qiancao Bay in Xinhui, Guangdong.

And now it is 1448, that is, the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, and the bird gun used by the second regiment of Mengyangcheng is more than 70 years ahead of the bird gun on the historical trajectory.

The flintlock pistol, which officially replaced the bird gun, was invented in 1620 by the craftsman Maran Le Bourgeois in Normandy, France, according to Jiang Yu's memory.

If we use the time node of the birth of the flintlock pistol to calculate, the bird gun used by Jiang Yu's soldiers is a weapon that is 180 years ahead of the current time and space of 1448, and it is a technological advantage of more than a century.

If we combine more historical records, until the middle of the 19th century, the firearms used by the Qing army were still dominated by birds, and the armament rate did not exceed 60%, which was 400 years after 1448.

It can be said that the level of weapons and equipment of the Second Regiment of Mengyangcheng has maintained an advantage from then until 400 years later.

Perhaps in this era when firearms cannot completely replace cold weapons, the generation difference of weapons does not mean absolute superiority, but the superior effect of advanced weapons is undeniable, especially the bird guns developed and manufactured by Jiang Yugang and Lu Chong also use fixed ammunition.

In this way, the shooting process of the bird gun is greatly simplified, and this bird gun has an absolute advantage over the use of ordinary bird guns.

This advantage in use is not only to facilitate the use of weapons by fighters, but also to simplify the entire shooting training process, and the simplicity of detailed operation can support more tactics on a larger scale.

For example, this unit, which is composed of new recruits, has brilliantly completed the training and realization of the classic three-stage strike tactics, and Jiang Yugang also improved the three-stage attack according to the characteristics of the improved bird gun that can shoot about six times in one minute, that is, once every 10 seconds, and created the tactics of six-stage attack and ten-stage strike.

The ease of use allows soldiers not to invest too much energy in each shot, so as to ensure the realization of these relatively complex and in-depth tactics.

Not to mention, soldiers who use the Bird Gun don't have to spend effort on other long-range shooting weapons, such as bows and arrows, which seem like simple bows, but actually require a lot of effort to master the actual combat use.

Master the use of the bird gun, and gradually master it, it may only take a month in Mang Castle, two months, to complete the basic tactical training, to achieve a more ideal combat effect.

And relying on the training of a good archer to achieve the same effect may not be possible in a few months.

Compared with the bird, the bow and arrow are simple, but in fact, the price of the weapon for tactical effect is transferred from the weapon to the user.

If you want to manipulate a simple bow and arrow and play an effect close to the use of a bird's gun, you need to pay several times or even dozens of times the price in order to train qualified users.

Therefore, it is relatively easy to train an archer army and cultivate a well-trained bird gun unit, and the technical strength required for the fixed ammunition bird gun used in Mang Castle is even simpler, while the strategic strength of the entire army is rising, and it has a strong enough combat effectiveness in the case of little training time and poor combat experience.

On paper, this is a perfect army, the size of six hundred people is completely due to the possibility of inflicting enough casualties on the enemy's thousands, which in turn leads to the rout of the enemy, their existence, it is quite possible to change the situation———— but the problem is that these are all on paper.

More than half of the soldiers participated in the largest battle in the mountains and forests, and the bandits numbered no more than a few dozen at most, and the Mang Castle army had at least a hundred or more men in an array each time.

These soldiers have not experienced the scene of facing an enemy ten times their number, and the army of tens of thousands of people has never even seen Jiang Yugang, at that time, will the enemy retreat because of the firepower of the hundreds of defenders in front of them, and will these hundreds of people become the side that retreats?

Jiang Yuyan didn't know the answer, what he knew was that if he didn't know the answer, he would be gambling with his life, taking thousands of people from his own side, and gambling with tens of thousands of people in the local area, and the bet was everything he had, including whether the ground under his feet could be great again.

He is not a timid person, and he is not a person who does not believe in hope, but he remembers the trajectory of history, remembers the deep regret in his heart when he sees this history of the past in modern times, and remembers that 600 years ago, Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji led an army of 130,000 and finally retreated to the Jinsha River.

And what Jiang Yu regrets the most is that the former Jinsha River, 600 years later, even the name has become a name that is unfamiliar to his culture: the Irrawaddy River.

If he wants to change the direction of the river, he has to go to the battlefield, and when he gets to the battlefield, in order not to repeat the mistakes of the past, he must add some chips to the Tianping Mountain of victory and defeat, and the name of the chips is called Wang Ji.

··············

Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji, the Ming generation, there are only three Wenchen who have been knighted for their military exploits, Wang Ji is the first person, Wang Yue is the second person, and the third person is the famous Wang Shouren.

Wang Yue, three times out of the north of the desert, recovering the Hetao, two attacks on Tatar, Chenghua Hongzhi years for the stability of the north made a great contribution; Wang Shouren pacified Jiangxi and captured the rebellious Ning king Zhu Chenhao.

Before these two famous generals, Wang Ji, the first to be knighted for his military exploits, naturally has one of the reasons, in the early years of orthodoxy, he attacked Tatar, and later he was the governor of military affairs, and three expeditions to Luchuan.

Later generations' doubts about Wang Ji were mainly entangled in two points: one was that he participated in the change of seizing the gate, and the other was that in the battle of Luchuan under his command, the Ming Dynasty consumed so much that the northwest air defense was weak, but it did not receive the due results, and gave the evaluation of "moving the world with a corner".

Jiang Yugang is not good at giving his own evaluation of the first thing, but for the battle of Luchuan, Wang Ji was able to take on the heavy responsibility at the beginning of the battle of the Mu family in Yunnan Province when the situation was not going well, expedition to the southwest, and achieved results in the battle against Luchuan State, stabilized the situation on one side, and sealed the title of Jingyuan Uncle with military exploits, which is certain.

And crossed over to the Ming Dynasty, Jiang Yuyan didn't want to know Wang Ji from the evaluation of those historians, he wanted to really see this character who left a mark in the history books, and wanted to fight side by side with him to defeat the Luchuan forces, and now he needs his assistance to defend Meng Yang.

To this day, there are still 100,000 soldiers in Wang Ji's camp, and they are in the midst of a confrontation with the tens of thousands of Luchuan troops near Jiangtou City.
