At 12 midnight on January 21, 1648, when the people of Shenzhou City were busy building Mingyue Bay in China, and when the 1st Marine Division of the Shenzhou Army arrived in Tsushima by boat and was busy preparing to "enter" Fuso, the Manchus began their last and most frantic counterattack before their demise.
In the courtyard where Bian Yujing lived in Suzhou City, the clear violin sound swirled in the courtyard with the bleak wind and cold rain in the south of the Yangtze River. In her heart, she not only had the sorrow of saying goodbye to Kou Baimen, but also sighed about her life experience by the poignant sound of the piano.
Indoor Dou'er is packing up his things. Just this afternoon, Chen Ronglai informed Kou Baimen that due to the imminent war, both Jiangnan and Fujian were now in an extremely unsafe state, and he was carrying out the order of the retreating personnel. For example, Kou Bai and the others will take a boat in the middle of the night to the location of New Shenzhou City, China Mingyue Bay.
"Miss, isn't Miss Bian going to Shenzhou City with us? Maybe it's for someone to stay here! ”
Kou Baimen had been listening to the beautiful sound of the piano for a while. To be honest, after being with Bian Yujing for a long time, she was really a little reluctant to Bian Yujing, and repeatedly invited Bian Yujing to go to Shenzhou City with her, but Bian Yujing refused to agree. Now that Dou'er asked, she didn't know any answer.
I had to pretend to be angry and said, "Dou'er, you can speculate about this matter...... Don't talk any more! ”
Dou'er stuck out his tongue and said in an unhappy voice: "Yes, Miss! ”
While he was talking, he heard the rumbling sound of cannon in the north.
Bolo rode on a war horse, and now he is no longer wearing leather armor, ring armor and other toys, and now he is wearing a battle armor made of composite armor that he has learned from Shenzhou, which is much lighter and more protective than the previous armor.
In the icy night wind, the handsome flag was blown with a hula sound. If it weren't for the Shenzhou Army to conquer Taiwan, the time for this battle would have been much earlier, after all, in the near future, the land south of the Yangtze River would be full of spring flowers, the ice and snow would melt, and the roads would be muddy at that time, and it would be inconvenient for both the horse team and the chariot to move. And when the Shenzhou Army conquered Taiwan, they had more places to defend, so naturally they couldn't easily come here to help Wu Shengzhao.
Not far from the horse is a specially set up incense case, on which the incense heads of the three incense sticks are getting shorter and shorter, he feels a little anxious in his heart, and once again thinks about this plan from beginning to end, to see if there are any mistakes.
The hundreds of thousands of troops he led this time were smaller than the army of the Three Kings that the Shenzhou Army had dealt with during the Tiger Leap War, but this army had been completely changed. Not only the equipment, but even the tactics were changed by Bolo, a general who has been fighting against the Shenzhou Army.
Among them, because he deeply felt the power of the chariots of the Shenzhou army, he has spared no effort to build chariots since last year, and since the craftsman Wang Chang made that kind of roller chain in bronze, the number of chariots of the Qing army has increased rapidly. The Ministry of Industry arranged for craftsmen from various prefectures, prefectures, counties, and counties to rush to work day and night, and finally equipped Bolo with a force of about 50,000 soldiers (about 5,000 chariots) equipped with chariots.
The other 50,000 were all transferred from the Eight Banners, who were already skilled in bows and horses, and even used "spear-type crossbows". Speaking of which, he also had to thank Wu Shengzhao, without the Jiangnan War here, whether it was a composite armor or a spear-type crossbow Bolo, he had never seen it.
After seeing it, both structurally and otherwise, Bolo felt the good intentions of the maker. In particular, the small iron ring above, as long as it is combined with the two protrusions at the very front of the crossbow body, can achieve considerable accuracy when firing horizontally. This is when the cavalry charges, the moment before the two armies intersect, its lethality is self-evident, although the cavalry can only shoot a crossbow when charging for 100 meters, but a salvo of thousands or tens of thousands of people! 、
As for the chariot, not to mention, it was now his favorite, and the only regret in his heart was that those spotlights could not be imitated (acetylene), so the Qing army's ability to fight at night was greatly reduced.
Facing the moonlit winter night, Bolo's heart once again raised a strong sense of confidence, just like the morning he had on the Xianxia Ridge. If it weren't for the army, he would have shouted at the mountains and the camp of the Ming army under the mountain, "I, Bolo, I'm coming, I'm here to take the world I deserve, because of my bravery, you all belong to me." ”
In this battle of Jiangnan, his plan was very simple, first release false news from Ruan Dacheng, so that the Lu Jianguo Office misunderstood that he would lead the army to take advantage of the weakness of Fujian and quickly go south. Secondly, a part of the chariot was sent to attack Huzhou, and most of the whole army once again attacked Suzhou from here.
At the same time, Zheng Zhilong was sent to lead part of the cavalry to take the sea route by boat and make a detour to Zhoushan. It was also divided into two roads, all the way with Huang Binqing and the Dutch to attack Hangzhou, these two big cities were captured together, and there was not much left in the south of the Yangtze River.
The other way is to land a chariot force behind the flank of the enemy's victorious army, and it is not too much, but two hundred troops equipped with all chariots are enough. First stand by in a hidden place on the riverbank, and when the battle is in full swing tomorrow, he suddenly launches an attack behind the enemy and takes Kunshan directly, so that the enemy cannot take care of the front and rear .......
In Bolo's mind, as long as Wu Shengzhao cut off the sea and the reinforcements of the Shenzhou army, he would definitely be defeated. Moreover, his troops were not as strong as the Qing army. Although the officers of Wu Shengzhao's Shengwu Army have been trained by the Shenzhou Army, their combat strength is not weak. But he faced nearly 150,000 Qing soldiers and Huang Binqing's nearly 60,000 Ming troops, as well as the artillery bombardment of the Dutch's five battleships.
He looked up at the starry sky in the cold night sky, Bolo thought to himself, and begged to stop Cang, "Just tell me to break through his defenses......
This is also the reason why the Qing army's night combat ability is weaker than Wu Shengzhao's, but he has to launch it in the middle of the night. Only by taking advantage of the darkness to break through the Suzhou defense line of the Lu Jian State Department, then the decisive battle with the main force of Wu Shengzhao's "Shengwu Army" chariot will be held during the day, otherwise when the defense line is occupied, the decisive battle with the "Shengwu Army" is very likely to occur at night, then it will be extremely unfavorable for the Boluo Department without lights.
Now the situation facing Bolo is that Wu Shengzhao has built a continuous fortified area to cover the front of Suzhou City in the place where he confronted the Qing army. Just like the defense line of the Shenzhou Army, which consisted of underground tunnels and artillery and flying crossbows in the above-ground fortresses, there were some second-rate garrisons stationed here. Thanks to the protection of the fortified fortresses, their combat effectiveness was also greatly improved.
Most of Wu Shengzhao's field troops stayed in the west of Suzhou near Suzhou, which was convenient for maneuvering in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and a small part assisted in the city defense in Hangzhou, and at the same time was responsible for reinforcing the city defense army in Huzhou at the first time.
