With more than 400 people facing dozens of times the enemy's soldiers, it seemed to ordinary people that there was no chance of victory, but the loyal and filial piety army did it. After discovering the location of the Mongol army's camp, Puchaguan Nu first paralyzed the Mongol army by deception, so that the Mongols were unprepared. Then he led the army under the cover of night, killed the Mongolian soldiers, and quickly came to the area of Wangjiasi to launch a surprise attack on the Mongolian army camped on the backwater.

Due to the large number of soldiers and the narrow area, the Mongolian army camp was too dense, which was not conducive to the gallop of the cavalry. The Mongolian army, which was caught off guard, was rushed in by the loyal and filial piety army, and couldn't help but panic. But after all, the Mongolian army had a great advantage in strength and quickly stabilized its position. Seeing that the frontal surprise attack was impossible, Puchaguan Nu sent 60 or 70 people to take small boats to the rear of the Mongolian army camp by water, landed with "flying muskets" in hand, burned down the wooden fence and launched another surprise attack on the Mongolian army.

As far as the history of firearms is concerned, the flying musket is a very primitive firearm, and the flames that spew out are difficult to cause fatal injuries to people, at most it is only frightening, causing some burns and minor injuries caused by the iron sand shot by the 'bullet nest', and the damage is even far less than that of a bow and crossbow. The Mongols, lacking experience in dealing with firearms, suddenly saw the smoke of gunpowder, the tongue of fire spewed out in fear, and they were pinched on the abdomen and back at night, and did not know the number of enemy soldiers, which led to the collapse of the camp, and everyone trampled on each other, and the brigade completely collapsed. Under the First World War, the commander of the Mongolian army, Sajisbhua, was killed, and more than 3,000 Mongolian soldiers were killed or drowned.

After the success, Pucha Guannu quickly turned to attack the camp of the Mengyuan Han army, and the specific battle situation was recorded ominously, but it caused Dong Jun, the marquis of the Han army, to throw himself into the water and die, and Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze fled in a hurry. However, Zhao Yu estimated that the loyal and filial piety army must have used long-range firearms such as rockets to ignite the warship, and then took advantage of the chaos to raid, so that it was possible to achieve such great results, of course, it also showed the almost invulnerable omnipotence of the loyal and filial piety army.

The loyal and filial piety army that won the great victory of Guide to Germany by virtue of this battle has since passed away like a meteor, flashing away after emitting a dazzling light, and this once famous all-round army has also faded out of people's field of vision, leaving only a few words in the notes of predecessors, and like a legend in the army word of mouth, and has not appeared in the official history.

Just because of the configuration of firearms, Wang Yinglin judged that the Mengyuan army that inflicted heavy losses on the Duge Department was a loyal and filial army, because the Mengyuan army that participated in the war was only about 1,000 people, so he defeated the Duge army with a strength of 5,000; In addition, this unit is equipped with firearms on a large scale, forming a special unit of formation. These two points are in line with the characteristics of the loyal and filial piety army, but Zhao Hao thought it was possible, but not necessarily.

It has only been more than 50 years since the fall of the Jin Dynasty, and it is not difficult for the Mongols, who are good at absorbing the opponent's army, to take the loyal and filial piety army, a motherless child, into their arms. The members of the Loyal and Filial Piety Army are multi-ethnic and have high salaries, so in Zhao Hao's view, they are more like mercenaries, so they naturally have no concept of loyalty to the motherland, and it is logical to join another employer, which may also be one of the reasons for the sudden disappearance of the Loyal and Filial Piety Army.

After all, the Battle of Guide was the victory of the loyal and filial army, and there was no one left who would not die, so Meng Yuan completely used them to establish a new army with reference to the model of the loyal and filial piety army. As for not necessarily, because according to Zhao Yu's war report, Meng Yuan used the banner of guarding the army, and the firearms used were not primitive firearms such as flying muskets in the past, and there were mainly two types of 'new' firearms:

A kind of shape like artillery, more than a foot long, but the caliber of the cannon is like a bowl, nearly four inches, more than one-third of the length of the cannon body, loaded on a special gun carriage to fire, the sound boom is like thunder, the projectile is as big as a fist, but the range is not far, less than 100 steps; The other is a firearm, but instead of a 'flying musket', it is a copper cylinder, about a foot long, with a wooden handle for holding it. It is filled with iron sand or iron pellets, which are triggered by gunpowder, and can pierce the armor in about 30 steps.

According to the description of the battle report, Zhao Yu appeared in his mind two kinds of weapons, 'bowl mouth tube' and 'handcuff', both of which were the most primitive forms of metal barreled firearms, which were fired by fire rope ignition, and inevitably had many shortcomings such as short range, poor accuracy, and slow loading speed. They are also very different to use. Usually the artillery fired stone or iron bullets, and sometimes small pebble or metal bullets. They have wide openings, short barrels, and low accuracy, so they are suitable for melee combat of about fifty paces or less.

In addition, although the unit was armed, it was not a single unit, and was assisted by crossbowmen and pikemen. In engagement, artillery fires first, then crossbows, closes with handcuffs, and finally fights with cold weapons. The tactics of firearms first, then traditional medium-range weapons, and finally melee weapons are the standard tactics of the era of alternating hot and cold weapons, and this is also the correct way to develop the history of weapons. Even so, Zhao Yu was taken aback, his arrival did affect the course of history, allowing Meng Yuan to master the technology of firearms manufacturing and the tactics of mixing hot and cold weapons nearly a hundred years in advance.

But it's normal for Zhao Yu to think about it, his arrival has advanced the firearms war by hundreds of years, whether it is Weiyuan cannon or flintlock pistol, it should only appear in modern times. And his early intervention has also stimulated technological innovation in disguise. Meng Yuan is also a people who loves to learn, in the war with Song Jin, he came into contact with hot weapons, and in the war with himself repeatedly defeated, it is impossible not to seek to make hot weapons.

Imitation is of course the most convenient way, although Zhao Yu at the beginning of the manufacture of gunpowder and guns in strict secrecy, each process is made separately, so that the craftsmen can not be familiar with each process, requiring soldiers to properly protect the weapon, in the battle can not leave the weapon on the battlefield, in extraordinary circumstances must also destroy the weapon first. However, with the large-scale production and assembly, more and more people are involved, and the number of people is no less than hundreds of thousands, and some secrets on firearms will inevitably be revealed.

However, the science and technology tree is not so easy to climb, this is a huge system project, without the guidance of such an open figure as Zhao Yu, it is not so easy for the craftsmen of Mengyuan to imitate flintlock pistols and artillery. First of all, they didn't have a formula for gunpowder, so they couldn't make gunpowder with great power. Secondly, they do not understand the principles of weapons and cannot independently design them; In addition, they lack the production equipment and technology, and they cannot make usable metal materials.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for the Mengyuan craftsmen to imitate the firearms used by the Song army at present, so even if they have samples, they can only make a 'castrated' version of the firearms, which are far from the firearms equipped by the Song army in terms of power and performance. However, in order to be able to be used in actual combat, the tactics of mixing cold weapons and hot weapons can only be creatively adopted. In the battle with the Song army, the Du Gebu was beaten by firearms into a frightened bird, and when he heard the sound of cannons, he also messed up, Zhao Yu estimated that this was the reason for his defeat, if he really sacrificed his life to fight, who won and who lost in the case of superior troops.

Even if this 'divine army' suddenly born in Meng Yuan still has the combat power of the loyal and filial army, Zhao Yu is not worried, he also has all-round troops such as the personal guard brigade, the guard battalion, and the office action team in his hands, and the combat power of some marine brigades and mountain brigades is not inferior to it. Moreover, in the era when one's own side is fully equipped with firearms, no matter how strong the combat ability of individual soldiers and small detachments is, they cannot compete with firearms, let alone affect the trend of the entire battle situation. Fear only the destruction of transport and logistical supply lines, and the attacks of generals and small units.

Therefore, the appearance of Mengyuan's firearms troops did not interfere with Zhao Yu's determination, but the defeat of the Duge army frustrated the plan to seize Suzhou, adding difficulties for the troops to enter Yingtianfu. And the speed of the enemy's march on the west road also exceeded his expectations, so after agreeing on the battle plan for Xuzhou, Zhao Mengjin immediately returned, and the troops were sent to Pi, and Ni Liang led his troops to Suzhou to meet the enemy army that came to help......

When Zhao Hao was ambitiously preparing to march into the Central Plains, Zhenjin, who was far away in Dadu, was in turmoil, and his chest was filled with grief and helplessness, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only vent his anger on the furnishings of the house, smashing the hall into a mess. In order to defend Gyeonggi and prevent the army of the Southern Dynasties from going north, Jinjin wanted to mobilize the army of King Jong on the grassland to move south while mobilizing the army of the guards to go south. One is to fill the emptiness of troops in the Gyeonggi area after the transfer of the guards and pro-troops; One is to respond to the guards who are going south, in order to be complete.

However, after Zhenjin gave his order, Zongwangjun did not listen to the tune, of course, it was not a strong resistance, but poured bitter water on him, saying that the grassland suffered from the cold again, and a large number of war horses and livestock died, and the people were unable to prepare war horses and weapons, and asked for food and money. In short, it's the money that makes trouble. But Zhenjin really has no money now, and he has almost exhausted everything in the court to guard the pro-army going south.

However, the reasons put forward by the kings also made Zhenjin unable to argue, because he also knew that the military system of this dynasty was actually similar to the military system of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mongolian soldiers needed to prepare their own weapons, armor, horses, etc., but there was no land allocated by the Tang Dynasty soldiers and no military salaries. Therefore, the participation of ordinary Mongol soldiers in war is more similar to doing business, investing in advance and recovering the investment through the spoils of war to make profits.

However, in the eyes of the Mongolian aristocracy, ordinary Mongolians are just small shareholders who are dependent on their own profits and losses, and how they live depends on themselves, and they do not consider the interests of ordinary Mongolians too much from the perspective of the entire Mongolian nation. During the Mongol conquest, ordinary Mongols had to participate in wars as conscripts, while many poor Mongols even had to sell their sons and daughters in order to raise equipment.

And in order to maintain the stability of the land of Longxing, the Yuan Dynasty had to give relief to the left-behind people almost every year. In order to stabilize these princes and nobles, the establishment of the 'gift system', there are many kinds of gifts, such as ascending to the pole, pro-government, longevity, emblem, enjoyment, promotion, canonization, military merits, weddings and funerals, etc., but after the loss of Jiangnan, the tax is greatly reduced, and it is already a lot of arrears......
