Section 132 Prestige
The first tornado begins at the end of the Wanderer
A wry smile appeared on Dolgon's resolute face, this is the reason, but how difficult is it to do?
It is not as strong as the entire 80,000 troops who have just entered the customs, and the momentum is like a rainbow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After continuous battle attrition, especially the annihilation of the 10,000 horses of the forward Abatai and the head of the commander Yue Tuo, both the strength and morale made him feel short of breath.
When the two armies are fighting, the most taboo is to hesitate!
If Yue Tuo hadn't died, or if Da Ming was still as cowardly as before and didn't have so many tricks, he would definitely not hesitate to fight with all his might, conquer Zhao County and slaughter it.
However, the fact is that now he does not dare to throw his army into the most attritional siege battle, and they have already paid a heavy price for the light enemy.
However, as Du Du said, if the soldiers come to the city and do not fight, it will not be reasonable for that side, and the people of the Red Banner clan will not agree to it in the first place.
The second is Huang Taiji, which is especially a headache for him.
The battle is like this, no matter what the next result is, going back is the moment when Huang Taiji takes the opportunity to make trouble, and he is really a difficult old dog to deal with.
"You first appease the red flag, don't act rashly for the time being, we can't stand the toss anymore."
Dolgon pinched the bridge of his nose, which was a little sore, and said to Dudu in a distraught.
"It's just like this, but it's not a long-term solution for the end, and I hope things can take a new turn."
Du Du looked lonely and looked a little helpless.
Dorgon had analyzed the situation very clearly with him, and although he was impulsive, he also knew what to prioritize.
What's more, he also admires the cousin in front of him who is younger than him. If nothing else, he was rushing to be able to fight with Huang Taiji for so many years without falling behind, and he Du Du asked himself if he could do it.
At the head of Zhao County, Qin Haoming was dressed in a showman's costume, his injured left hand was tied with a bandage, and he inspected the city defense with generals such as Lu Xiangsheng, the "Generalissimo of the National Soldiers and Horses" in military uniform.
"It's windy in the city, you can recuperate with peace of mind, it's really idle."
The cold northeast wind blew, and Lu Xiangsheng saw Qin Haoming shiver, and couldn't help but say distressedly.
For the young people in front of him, he loves and even respects him from the bottom of his heart.
No one knows better than him that Qin Haoming changed his fate when he said it to Xiaoli, and changed his fate when he said it to Da Li.
"Didn't you want to learn from you the experience of defending the city?"
Qin Haoming looked around with a smile, looking interested in everything.
This is true, he really used every opportunity to learn the tactics of defending and besieging cities, which were essential in ancient warfare.
"If you kid don't worry, just say it, hypocrisy!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiangsheng misunderstood, thinking that he was being modest.
Qin Haoming has won everyone's trust in him with his series of brilliant achievements, and has left an image of the omnipotence of capable people in everyone's hearts, especially in the military, Lu Xiangsheng is naturally no exception.
"Lu Du, people are not born to know it.
The kid was successful in dealing with Jiannu before, but he took advantage of their defenselessness to be calculated and unintentional, and hit the other party by surprise and attack his unpreparedness, in general, he was still flattering.
If there are any bright spots, it is nothing more than people who are stupid and bold and not afraid of death.
As for the solid foundation of military theory, such as marching and camping, besieging and defending cities, and the mutual cooperation of various weapons and arms, it is necessary for Lu Du to give advice. Qin Haoming frankly said his shortcomings, only in this way can he learn the real experience of cold weapon combat.
Don't think that in ancient warfare, there were only simple routines such as sounding the gong to collect the troops, and listening to the drum to advance, and the cooperation between the cavalry and infantry alone had many mysteries in it, not to mention the offensive and defensive battles known as the meat grinder?
"Good! Victory is not arrogant and defeat is not discouraged, it is really a model of my Da Ming Erlang!
Look at how smart our General Qi is, how fast he starts! ”
Qin Haoming's upright attitude, although he revealed his shortcomings, won the favor of the generals around him.
Zhang Songrong, the new counselor of the Xuanfu, grinned, and did not hide his appreciation for Qin Haoming in his eyes, and even used Qi Gang to make a difference.
The generals burst into laughter and made fun of them.
This said that Qin Haoming is very blessed, and the little lady of the Qi family is knowledgeable and beautiful. The one who said that Qi Gang was finally worried about it, and caught a wishful golden beetle son-in-law.
However, in the process of teasing, Qin Haoming secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
That is, from beginning to end, everyone said that Qi Xiaoniang was beautiful, and this should be true, after all, they are all colleagues, and their families have more or less met each other, so they naturally have reason to judge, not to mention that Qi Gang himself is also conceited of his daughter's beauty.
Although it is said that marrying a wife should be a virtuous man, and taking a concubine should be a woman, but both are taken care of at the same time, which is naturally the best!
"General Zhang, you introduce the specific city defense situation of Zhao County to General Qin and General Qi, and this governor will go back to the commander's account to handle official business first."
Lu Xiangsheng smiled and instructed General Zhang Songrong, then turned to Qin Haoming and Qi Gang and said:
"You first take your time to understand, and if there is something that needs to be strengthened, bring it up, and then come back to the governor."
"No!"
"No!"
Zhao County built a city wall for rammed earth, and Ming Hongwu covered bricks for seven years. The circumference of the city wall is more than five miles, covering a total area of 30,000 square meters, and the whole plane is rectangular.
The total height of the city wall is 2.8 zhang, the width of the lower is more than 3 zhang, the width of the top is two zhang meters, the appearance is all brickwork, and the stone strip is the foundation. The top along the low wall is placed with battlements, lookout holes and perforations.
The whole city wall has a total of nine horse faces (including the city gate horse face), the horse face is close to the wall, majestic and stable, and its scale is different. The city gate is set up on the east, south and west sides of the city wall, the north gate is not placed, there is a low gatehouse on the original city gate, and it is replaced by the arrow tower now.
"There is a little less horse face, if only there were more."
With Zhang Songrong's explanation, Qin Haoming gradually understood the specific situation of Zhao County.
In ancient times when cold weapons were fought, in order to strengthen the defense capability of the city gates, many cities were equipped with more than two city gates, forming "urn cities".
The city wall protrudes from the rectangular piers at certain distances to facilitate the defenders to attack the incoming enemy from the side.
Zhao County is a small county seat, and it was originally an inland city, so it is naturally impossible to have more horse noodles.
If it is an important border town like Xuanfu Datong, in order to enhance the defense and war capability of Mamian, there are generally enemy buildings built on top of Mamian, that is, "there are buildings on it" as the old rule says.
It can not only garrison troops and lookouts, but also store weapons, so that the defensive performance of the city wall can be developed to the highest point.
On each horse face of the Xuanfu Datong city wall, there was a two-storey enemy tower with heavy eaves in the early Ming Dynasty, and the troops were stationed to defend.
In wartime, you can take advantage of its protruding exterior and tall buildings to observe the enemy, observe the enemy's situation, and prevent the enemy from attacking the city in a roundabout way.
In addition, it can rely on the cross-fire of the enemy tower from the front and between the left and right floors to snipe the enemy, connect the points and lines at any time, and weave a tight high-altitude firepower network, which is an important part of the defense project of the city wall.
"See the general!" The Ming soldiers who were in charge of guarding the horse face saw Qin Haoming and Zhang Songrong coming, and hurriedly saluted.
"Stay safe, keep notice, and don't salute in the future in times of war! You also come in, don't give the Tartar archers a chance, the Tartars are on fire these days! ”
Qin Haoming smiled, pulled the saluting Ming soldiers to the corner of the horse's face, and patted him on the shoulder.
"No! Thank you, General Qin, for your kindness! ”
The sentinel's heart is warm, General Qin's military exploits are amazing and his strategy is monstrous, it is rare to be considerate of his brothers, it has long been spread in the army, and he is fortunate to see it today, and it is indeed true.
