Chapter 715, Xiao Wang knew that he was wrong
Not to mention the chances of winning the war, even if they did, the Siamese army would surely suffer heavy casualties, and then they would have a strong enemy to face, and the Burmese in the northwest had always been their mortal enemy.
With the order of the King of Siam, some envoys also hurriedly walked towards the Ming army.
"Hmph~"
"Just not collecting taxes from my Ming merchants?"
After listening to the envoy's words, Zhang Mao couldn't help but snort coldly, thought for a while and said: "Go back and tell you the King of Siam, when I hit your city, I will talk about it again when the time comes, I think that at that time, he should know what mistakes he has made." ”
After saying this, after the envoy of Siam returned, Zhang Mao directly ordered to open fire.
"Knock~Knock~"
With Zhang Mao's order issued, the artillery position here, thousands of artillery pieces opened fire at the same time, the rumbling roar resounded through the field, the billowing smoke burst after burst, and the whistling shells fell towards the camp of the Siamese army like rain.
"Ah~"
"Woo~"
Suddenly, countless screams sounded from the Siamese army, and one elephant after another was frightened, and suddenly it was terrified everywhere, constantly letting out a roar.
"Smack~"
An unlucky elephant was directly hit by a cannonball, and the terrifying power it carried instantly shattered the behemoth, blurred its flesh and blood, and fell heavily to the ground.
"Rush~"
"Rush over~"
"Rush in front of them, and their artillery will have no effect."
The Siamese general in charge of commanding drew the sword in his hand and roared loudly, and suddenly the Siamese army began to rush towards the Ming army, and for a while, it was like a mighty turbulent wave.
The elephant ran over the earth, and the whole ground trembled slightly.
"Ready~First row, aim~"
The Ming army, which had already experienced one battle after another, obviously had a much higher psychological quality, and their faces did not change, and under the command of the commander, they lined up in columns and raised their muskets one after another.
In the sky, the cannonballs were still whistling, as if they had eyes, and they were falling specifically to the places where there were many Siamese soldiers, and the cannonballs were beating on the ground to bring out bloody paths.
The attack speed of the Miyun artillery was very fast, and the range was very long, accompanied by the rumbling artillery fire, the Siamese army had already suffered heavy casualties before it rushed in front of the Ming army.
The artillery attack was too intensive, fortunately it was not a flowering shell, otherwise this round of artillery fire would be enough to wipe them out.
The surging Siamese army rushed towards the Ming camp, and they kept roaring, but they were terrified, because no one knew if a single shell would fall on their heads.
Soon they were getting closer and closer to the Ming army, and each could already clearly see each other's attire.
The Ming army was dressed in uniform and armor, and the helmets were all tall, holding a long musket in their hands and a sword pinned to their waists, and their eyes were calm.
The Siamese army did not even have basic equipment, most of the people were barefoot and running naked on the ground, and they did not even have cavalry.
As for the elephants, they were all out of control at this time, and under the terrible artillery attack, these elephant soldiers who had never encountered artillery fire again were terrified, and there was no way to fight again.
"Kill~"
"Rushed over and killed all these Mingren~"
The Siamese roared angrily, waving his sword as he rushed.
"First row shooting!"
However, before they could hit the side of the Ming army, with an order, the front of the Ming army's camp was accompanied by a dense sound like fried beans, billowing white smoke rose up, and lead pellets shot out.
In an instant, the Siamese army rushing to the front was like a wave of wheat falling in the wind, and like a wave hitting the reef.
As countless blood flowers rose, the people who rushed to the front fell head-on.
"Second row, shoot!"
The mechanical voice sounded again, very cold.
Another dense burst of gunfire rang out, and a wave of bullets came head-on again, like a wave of harvested wheat, and fell head-on again.
"Third row, shoot!"
The cold voice continued to sound, and bursts of billowing smoke rose up, and the rushing Siamese army seemed to have encountered the line of death.
No matter how they attacked, they were never able to rush to the side of the Ming army, and every time the billowing smoke rose, a large number of people would inevitably fall in response.
An elephant soldier controlled the elephant and rushed towards the Ming army, but the elephant fell heavily under the attack of the musket.
Some of the elephants that were wounded but did not die were even more frightened to turn around and run, and wherever they passed, the Siamese army suffered heavy casualties.
The Siamese army, which is still in the cold weapon combat mode, is the opponent of the Ming army.
No matter in that aspect, they are too far away from the Ming army.
The billowing smoke continued to sound, and there were shells whistling in the sky, and it only lasted less than half an hour before the Siamese army completely collapsed.
War is not how to fight, and it also brings such bullying to people.
The Siamese army rushed over desperately, but they couldn't even enter the body of the Ming army, and there was no way to fight with the Ming army, and the archers wanted to rely on bows and arrows to attack the Ming army, but they were sad to find that their bows and arrows were not as good as the muskets of the Ming army.
Even if they were blocked, their bows and arrows would not be able to break through the hard armor of the Ming army, and it would be difficult to effectively kill and injure the Ming army, and soon, the artillery of the Ming army would attack the Siamese archers.
War is pure one-sided slaughter.
Even though it has an advantage in troops, it has never been able to catch even a single hair of the Ming army.
The artillery and muskets of the Ming army were simply terrible.
The Siamese army collapsed!
On the field, there were corpses everywhere, corpses were everywhere, rivers of blood flowed, and a large number of Siamese soldiers who had not yet died were constantly wailing and helplessly asking for help.
has never fought such a humiliating war, and even the Ming army can't get close, let alone fight with the Ming army.
A large number of Siamese troops began to retreat, constantly retreating towards Ayutthaya.
The Siamese king Ramatipti II on the city wall was extremely unwilling to beat him the city wall.
Defeated, defeated so completely.
Although when Zhang Mao attacked Siam earlier, the Siamese army had already fought with the Ming army and knew the horror of the Ming army.
They also tried a lot of methods, such as taking advantage of the rain to attack, but this was useless, even if the Ming army did not rely on muskets, they were still able to easily defeat the Siamese army, especially the cavalry of the Ming army, extremely terrible, under the impact of the cavalry, the Siamese army was defeated faster.
"Knock~Knock~"
As the Siamese army retreated into the city, the Ming army did not pursue, but the artillery fire began to extend the attack and began to bombard the entire city.
Dense shells whistled in the sky, and everywhere they went, there were ruins and broken walls, and Buddhist temples were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
The Siamese people in the city silently prayed to the Buddha in their hearts, while constantly cursing the Ming army, and at the same time they were terrified, for fear that a cannonball would fall on their heads.
Ramatipti II on the city wall was also half frightened to death, and quickly evacuated and found a place to hide.
The artillery attacks of the Ming army came in waves, and it seemed that there was no intention of stopping, as if the entire city was going to be destroyed into ruins.
However, the Ming army never attacked the city, which made the Siamese secretly relieved.
Although the artillery fire is powerful, as long as you find a place to hide, it is still very safe, and the Ming army will not kill it.
The artillery attack lasted for two whole hours, and the entire King of Siam was completely reduced to ruins, and the once magnificent Buddhist temples, royal palaces, and prosperous buildings were ruined everywhere under such fierce artillery fire.
"Stop shelling~"
"Send someone to ask this King of Siam, and ask him if he knows what is wrong with him?"
Liu Jin looked at the situation in the royal capital of Siam with a telescope, and was very satisfied with this effect, this time he came here to teach them a lesson, and he did not intend to occupy this place forever.
Defeated the Siamese army, and then fiercely shelled their royal capital, let them know that it was powerful, and then it was time to negotiate.
If the fight continues, if the King of Siam dies, there will be no one to compensate for the loss of the Ming Dynasty.
With Liu Jin's order, someone soon rode to the city wall and launched it with a bow and arrow tied to the letter.
The letter soon arrived, and the king of Siam, Rama Tiebodhi II, soon got the letter, and the whole person was immediately relieved and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
It turned out that the Ming army was not to destroy their own Ayutthaya Dynasty, but to teach themselves a hard lesson and let themselves know that they were wrong.
"Send someone over immediately, and say that Xiao Wang knows that he is wrong, Xiao Wang knows that he is wrong, and he is willing to accept the punishment of the Ming Dynasty, and Siam is willing to sign the agreement of the Ming vassal state and is willing to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty."
At this time, he still wisely chose to save his life first.
As long as the Ming Dynasty does not destroy himself, does not kill himself, and can still maintain his rule in Siam, then everything is easy to say, as for the original ambition, arrogance, etc., it will also disappear cleanly.
At this moment, he has long lost his ambitions, and finally understands how powerful and terrifying Da Ming is.
This is just a large army of Daming, just an army of 50,000 people, it is said that Daming has an army of one million, if Daming wants to destroy himself, it is simply too easy.
Originally, he felt that he was very bullish, dominating the entire southeast, punching Burma, and kicking Cambodia, which seemed to be very bullish, but now he clearly knows that these are scum, and in front of the powerful Ming army, they are as weak and ridiculous as children.
