Chapter 911: The Defeat of the Triple Alliance
"After this battle, we must ask the imperial court to transport some war horses as soon as possible, otherwise it will be quite difficult to rely on the army of only 100,000 people, and to occupy the entire big 6, and to chase and destroy the enemy army that runs as fast as rabbits!" After defeating the Anglo-Spanish coalition army, knowing that more than half of the Anglo-Spanish coalition soldiers had escaped, Yan Yingyuan said helplessly, and from his words, he heard firmness. "Say." 2
The Ming army is indeed strong and can defeat any enemy army, but there is no mobility without war horses, and there may not be any pressure to defeat the enemy army, but it is difficult and difficult to completely annihilate the enemy army.
Just like this time, the defeated Anglo-Spanish soldiers could throw away all their weapons and baggage, even their clothes, to reduce the gravity on their bodies to escape, but the Ming soldiers could not do this, and in the end, although they easily defeated the Anglo-Spanish army, it also allowed more than half of the Anglo-Spanish soldiers to escape.
The escape of so many Anglo-Spanish soldiers meant that the Ming army had to fight another war to defeat them again, and even so, it might not be possible to completely annihilate them.
Therefore, war horses are very important!
For this reason, Yan Yingyuan even preferred to reduce the number of some soldiers in exchange for war horses.
Defeating the Anglo-Spanish coalition army and capturing the southern part of the thirteen states of North America meant that the Ming Dynasty completely captured the entire thirteen states of North America, as well as the central part of the Great 6 of North America, millions of square kilometers of land.
Although the Ming Dynasty developed a radio, but to cross the Pacific Ocean at a time, it is not possible to do it, it needs to be transmitted from Hawaii and the province of Wa several times, but no matter how to relay, with the speed of the radio, within a few hours, the words to be transmitted can also be transmitted to the city of Nanjing.
On the day when he completely captured the southern part of the thirteen states in North America, Yan Yingyuan conveyed his appeal to Nanjing City by radio, hoping that the imperial court could transport a batch of war horses to North America as soon as possible to facilitate the battle of the army.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Yan Yingyuan wants is not unreasonable! It can form a fast and mobile iron horse, and can better help the European ** teams that annihilate the Americas! After reading the report, Li Yan thought for a while and said to Zhu Ci.
"Yes, I also think Yan Yingyuan's appeal is quite reasonable!" Zhu Ciji also nodded and agreed.
To be honest, the proportion of the cost of transporting a war horse in a transpacific transport is enough to transport four soldiers. If you talk about the cost, because the voyage across tens of thousands of miles of the Pacific Ocean requires at least two months of life on the ship, such a long time, the war horse will definitely not be adaptable, maybe many war horses will die because of the discomfort on the way, and there are six achievements that can really be transported to the shore.
If you really have to calculate carefully, the cost of transporting one war horse in the Pacific Ocean is not less than the cost of transporting six or seven soldiers.
This is also the main reason why, at the beginning, the imperial court did not plan to transport a large number of war horses, the cost was too great.
However, after Yan Yingyuan's appeal, Zhu Ci had to think about it seriously.
The cost of transporting war horses across the Pacific may be very large, but compared with the repeated failure to completely annihilate the enemy, so that the army has to attack many times, and spend a lot of time and ammunition and materials, the cost of transporting war horses is not unacceptable.
"Tell me the will! Tobe began to collect war horses, and the two fleets prepared ships to transport war horses to the North American Big 6! Zhu Ci thought for a while, and finally ordered.
"The Emperor Shengming!" After Li Yan saluted, he retreated.
--------------------------
In the twenty-fourth year of the Ming Dynasty, on June 8, the imperial court began to collect a large number of war horses in the Mongolian steppe, the Jungar steppe, the Cossack steppe, etc., at the request of Yan Yingyuan, the commander of the North American dispatch army of the Ming Dynasty, and transported them to the seaport by rail.
At the same time, a large number of ocean-going transport ships were recruited to prepare to transport these collected war horses in the direction of North America's Big 6.
The warships of the two fleets were ready to escort at any time.
In order to reduce the number of deaths of war horses in the process of transportation because they are not suitable for ship life, Daming took war horses to live on ships in batches for ten days, and then transported them across the ocean to North America Big 6.
---------------------------
"Good! Long live our emperor! I, Yan Yingyuan, will live up to the emperor's grace and win the entire Americas Big 6! In the southern part of the thirteen states of North America, Yan Yingyuan shouted excitedly when he learned that the imperial court had agreed to his request.
The emperor believes in him Yan Yingyuan so much, in order to attack the Americas 6, he has deployed countless resources, if he Yan Yingyuan does not take the Americas 6 as soon as possible, what face will he have to return to Nanjing City.
"Newspaper ——-," a telegraph messenger walked in with a telegram.
"Marshal Qiyu, the commander of the 50th Army, Feng Houdun, has reported that Commander Feng has led 10,000 soldiers to defeat the French army, and is pursuing the victory, and has now pursued into Canada!" The messenger reported to Yan Yingyuan.
Yan Yingyuan nodded and ordered: "Order Commander Feng, don't attack Canada for the time being, stick to the thirteen states first, and wait for the imperial court to transport the war horses!" ”
Although the strength of the Ming army is enough to push the French army and capture the French colonies of Canada, but the French Canadian colonies are larger than the thirteen North American states of the United Kingdom, in the absence of war horses, the Ming army can defeat the French army countless times, but it is not easy to completely annihilate the French army after defeating the French army.
-------------------------------
The northern part of the thirteen North American states bordering Canada.
At the same time that Yan Yingyuan defeated the Anglo-Spanish alliance and took the southern part of the Thirteen Prefectures, the 10,000 Ming army led by Feng Houdun also encountered the 30,000 French army of the Marquis of Orlan, the French governor of Canada, and the two armies fought fiercely.
The situation was similar to Yan Yingyuan's 30,000 Ming army attacking the 85,000 Anglo-Spanish army, all of them were facing three times their own strength, but the Ming army was advanced, and Feng Houdun's 10,000 Ming army also crushed the 30,000 French army.
"Boom! Rumble! After the bombardment, the French army was directly blown up, and suffered heavy casualties.-----
Because the French army did not dig a large number of trenches like the British army, the rout was much faster than that of the Anglo-Spanish army, and the 30,000 French troops collapsed directly after only a stick of incense in the real battle.
"God! This is not true! How could the army of the Ming Empire be so strong! Seeing the defeat of the French soldiers under his command, the commander of the French army, the Marquis of Orlan, shouted in despair.
Before the battle, because of the previous collapse of the British army, the Marquis of Orlang knew that the Ming army might be very strong, but he never expected that the Ming army was so strong, so strong that it was completely beyond his original expectations, even if the French soldiers in his hands were three times that of the Ming army, but under the attack of the Ming army, his French army still couldn't hold out for half an hour and was defeated, which made the Marquis of Orlang dare to believe that this was true.
However, no matter how much the Marquis of Orrand shouted, the French army had already been defeated, and defeat was inevitable.
In the end, the Marquis of Orrand had to flee with the French soldiers in great grief and anger.
Not as smart as the Anglo-Spanish soldiers, the French soldiers have been chased by the Ming army for nearly half an hour, and after being killed and captured thousands of soldiers, they realized that they still dropped the flint gun in their hands, as well as any heavy things on their bodies, and finally without any burden, the French army escaped the pursuit of Feng Houdun and other Ming troops, but when the French returned to their base camp in the Canadian colony, the French army had less than 10,000 left, and many of them were scattered in the process of fleeing, and were really captured and annihilated by the Ming army, which is about 15,000 people.
However, no matter how much you say, it is inevitable that the French army will be defeated.
The defeat of the French army in the north and the Anglo-Spanish army in the south meant that the Triple Alliance lost the first war against the Ming army, and the Ming army won a complete victory.
