Chapter 363: The Soldier Dies, a Confidant

At the harbor wharf in the northwest of Fengju City, the Shun army camped as if no one was there, and Devonie was curious: "What is this tactic of the Lord called?" I don't know how many times better than a three-stage shooter! ”

Lu Tingwan, who was returning, also had bright and brilliant eyes with her, and her eyes looked at Jia Cong with little stars.

Ai Shuangshuang, Long Aotian and others had already worshiped him as a lord.

Jia Cong shrugged his shoulders, still dissatisfied: "We will shoot in three stages, and the serial gun fighting method, but whoever has a gun in his hand, won't the enemy do it?" If you look at the formation they had just laid out, the situation of both sides lining up to shoot them appeared. ”

"Ben Du is thinking, no matter what tactics or formations, they are maximizing their firepower and not wasting a single bullet or a single force, so why can't they be scattered and surrounded?"

"The art of gunfight is like this, it is not to fight to kill one side of the dead and wounded, and once one side has signs of winning, the momentum is also up, the other side in addition to the vanguard, the back will panic, only to escape, who cares about anything else?"

Everyone thought about it and nodded, thinking that Jia Cong's argument was very good, and Guan Chaosheng even wrote a record, Jia Cong said to Devonie: "Actually, I learned it from you in the UK." ”

"Huh?" Devany was overjoyed, and her national pride filled with pride and she thought that something was wrong: "We don't have this kind of linear tactic in Britain!" ”

Jia Cong laughed and didn't answer, Devany will never know that Jia Cong is not talking about Britain at this time, but about Britain a hundred years later, Wellington fought with the French army in the Iberian Peninsula, using line tactics, so that every soldier has a chance to shoot, and the minority defeats the majority.

Today, he is the inventor of this tactic.

Of course, the enemy can do the same, but the Dutch may not have a chance, because there is no such confrontation in the future, but siege and defense battles.

When there is not much difference in equipment and numbers, tactics are undoubtedly the most testing place for a general, and it is also the key to success or failure.

And Jia Cong is like participating in the imperial examination, he has the superiority of a traverser, and his brain is also easy to use, so he can be called the golden finger of a traverser.

"In this battle, more than 200 people were annihilated in the Netherlands, close to 300 people, and our casualties were less than 10! The harvest of the spoils is as follows...... "Ai Shuangshuang reported on his exploits, which was inspiring.

"Well, the loot will be rewarded in batches for the brave and diligent in battle." Jia Cong was in a good mood.

"Your Excellency...... Daphne put on her helmet and armor and came out of the hatch: "Soldiers from the interior, there was a situation of scurvy at this time, and there was no one at first, but fortunately I brought a lot of lemon juice with me when I sent out the troops." ”

Chen Hua frowned and said, "It should be that the water and soil are not adapted, right?" My soldiers never appeared! ”

"Scurvy? Isn't there a lack of vitamin C? Jia Cong thought secretly: "Strange! Zheng He never heard of scurvy when he went to the West, maybe it was not recorded. ”

"Lemon juice can't be stored for long, right?" Jia Cong said.

"Yes, but I have experimented, some fruits and vegetables also have a good effect on preventing scurvy, although they cannot be stored for a long time, but they must be transported from various ports in a timely manner, otherwise it will be a nightmare." Devine reminded worriedly.

"Maybe there's a reason to drink tea, too." Chen Hua interjected, just after the battle, and learned that Jia Cong did not frame or retaliate against him, Chen Hua couldn't help but feel good, patted his chest and said: "It's not very far from Luermen and Anping Port in the east of the Qianxiang Country, and I can order the garrison there to be transported at any time." ”

Jia Cong nodded in agreement, he knew that scurvy was caused by a lack of vitamin C, and Westerners in the Age of Discovery had already experimented many times and came up with many prevention methods, as for whether tea had this effect? Jia Cong didn't know it in detail, it is estimated that Zheng He did not appear in the Western Ocean, because he sailed near the coast and could be replenished at any time, unlike the difficulty and hardship of Westerners to open up routes, just scurvy took hundreds of thousands of lives of Westerners, and it cannot be said that it is not terrifying.

He was secretly glad that Devany had foresight, and that the woman he had chosen was useful, and that he had to go and see the wounded and sick himself, despite the dissuasion of his generals.

Walking out of the camp tent of the Chinese army, he arrived at the camp tent of a sick man who surrounded one of his Chinese soldiers in an arched shape, and the oil and fire brushes on both sides of the door were rising, reflecting his and their faces red, Jia Cong saw the third brother Wu in the camp inside, his gums were bleeding when he opened his mouth, and he was red and purple.

Third Brother Wu took off the quilt and wanted to get up, Jia Cong held his shoulders and handed over some tropical melons and fruits to them one by one, and Third Brother Wu and the others burst into tears: "My lord! ”

Some of the wounded and sick began to wipe away tears, wishing that those who could not be confidants died: "Master Inspector leave quickly, what if you are infected?" ”

"That's right! Yes! ”

Lu Tingwan pursed her lips and smiled secretly: "It's quite good at buying people's hearts." ”

Jia Cong went out of the camp to inspect again, and heard Ai Shuangshuang, the management team who had finished distributing the loot, and the sound of women's laughter and drinking and gambling came from the camp tent, and the people around him were silent, thinking that Jia Cong was in charge, and they didn't want Jia Cong to turn around and leave, and they couldn't see any expression.

He thought to himself: "There is a disadvantage to these people, discipline cannot be as strict as that of military officers and soldiers, but if I sweep their interest at this time, it will inevitably be at the wrong time and will hit morale, so I can only turn a blind eye...... That's it, that's it, I want to use them to lay the foundation of strength and power in one fell swoop, so that I can go back to the capital and reverse, how can I not give some benefits? Is it possible to want the horses to run again, and for the horses not to eat grass? There is no perfection in the world! ”

"I only need one hand of radish to buy people's hearts, and the other hand thunder and shock! That's enough! ”

Thinking of this, Jia Cong didn't even ask whether the soldiers bought women from nearby villages or robbed them.

Zeng Guofan, the Duke of Wenzheng, who was once named the highest title by the Qing Dynasty, is not a family letter also written with benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, faith, loyalty and filial piety? However, is this peasant army's executioner really as good as his own pen? That's wrong, he also killed an unknown number of surrendered troops, retreated bravely in the rapids, and only then did he protect himself, and the people who sat in their positions were yin, accurate, and ruthless were the real official samadhi. Jia Cong is the same, grasp the overall situation, and the subsections can't be compared.

In other words, the three views of high-level superiors are different from normal people and most ordinary people.

As the saying goes, mercy is not in charge of soldiers.

That night, Jia Cong set up a celebration banquet again, saluted the generals one by one, drank wine in a big bowl, ate meat in large pieces, and was arrogant, unlike the official army, he would be unhappy in the end, and he would be happy with the wine, Chen Hua was ashamed: "Jia Cong is worthy of being a big official, compared with him and the queen's heart, I am absolutely inferior, no wonder they can command so many people, and they don't hate me at all." ”

Since then, Chen Huadu has gradually become convinced, and he has released his previous suspicions.

In the Triangular Castle, in the bell tower of the Governor's Office, two colonels, Van Biya and Mattheis, reported the military situation to Van, and a group of people immediately discussed, and Van Biya was full of anger: "Your Excellency the Governor, please allow me to go out of the city to fight them!" Again, I won't necessarily lose to them! ”

"That's not wise!" Matthew Ismo recited the New Testament of the Bible, put down the book and said: "I think that the city can be defended, Jia Cong is not like an official who closes off the country, he will definitely have to trade with us in the future, and he can negotiate!" And they also need spices, ivory and other luxuries from the South and Indian Oceans! ”

"Triangular castles are strong, but once the guns are developed, even the strongest castles are useless! How do you know that he won't attack with artillery fire? Or will we run out of ammunition and food? Once we lose this place, we will not be able to explain to the head office and the king! If we could talk about each other well, Jia Cong would not be so treacherous, backstalking and stalking again and again! ”

Unlike the Dashun officials, who would quarrel with each other, the navigators were often bold and ruthless, doing what they thought of, and less timid, Van Dyck said gloomily: "Aren't there still hundreds of thousands of slaves in the city?" We still know a little about the Far East, after all, countless missionaries were born and died to explore, and the Far Eastern Confucianism talked about benevolence and righteousness to a certain extent, so we ......"

Several colonists made a few plans in an instant, just waiting to fight with Jia Cong.

These people are like beasts of prey, and like bulls that have not grown up for a long time, they cannot be obedient if they do not fight or be tamed, and they cannot be afraid and retreat.
