vs 553 What else to rely on?
The fourth volume of the sharp blade out of the sheath Shenzhou moves
"I'm afraid this amount of work is not small...... Zhang Yun frowned slightly and pondered: "But it is a feasible method." ”
Qin Haoming thought about it for a while, and also nodded: "It is indeed a good method, it is much stronger than the ant attachment to attack the city." ”
In fact, Qin Haoming considered the method of using explosives to blow up the city, anyway, there was firepower to suppress it, and the Tartars who could fight couldn't raise their heads, and then asked the sappers to calmly dig tunnels under the city and bury thousands of catties of explosives.
No matter how strong your city is, you will definitely blow up half of the city wall.
Li Zicheng used this method to attack Kaifeng, anyway, North Korea has gunpowder, and bombing the city is a good way.
But it takes a long time to dig tunnels, and the effect of bombing the city is not ideal. Then we have to come again.
It's not like piling up the mound and sealing the mound is a conspiracy, and it is carried out in front of you, which is a serious damage to the spirit of the defenders in the city.
The Tartars would watch as the mound slowly rose up, and watched a mountain of dirt pile up in front of the wall, and then they would be shot from above, and then the mound would be built directly on the wall, and everything would be useless.
In this way, if there is a moat and corresponding auxiliary facilities to defend the city, such as arrow towers and moats, with a large number of antlers and horses.
Coupled with the arrow tower, the moat, and the protection of the city one by one, the besieging party had no way to immediately put the earth under the city wall, and the amount of work was too huge to give up.
However, there is only a bare city wall here, and the number of Tartars is small, so it is undoubtedly the best solution.
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Haoming made a final decision, "That's it, seal the hill and attack the city!" ”
"No!"
Everyone present responded in unison.
The big war was imminent, everyone went to bed early, and Qin Haoming woke up early the next day.
The barracks were very noisy, and the cooks began to cook while it was still dark, and when Qin Haoming got up, there were already many soldiers and people squatting on the ground to eat.
Everywhere is eaten according to small flags, and eleven people are a small flag.
The soup with a big iron bucket in each flag, of course, is not broth in the morning, it is a rice soup made of millet, plus two large meat steamed buns, and the hands are full of oil.
If you are stationed in the camp normally, it is generally a table of small dishes, such as pickled radish strips, sauerkraut, pickled beans, pickled cucumbers and other side dishes, accompanied by two steamed buns or wheat cakes, and rice porridge, which is the favorite food of every soldier in the army.
Meat was generally eaten at noon and in the evening, and the soldiers were given a ration of two taels per day. If there is an important project, it is three or four taels.
Soldiers have a ration of four taels a day, if there is meat in the morning, noon and evening during the war, regardless of the ration, let go of the belly and eat tightly, as long as the stomach is stuffed.
However, regardless of the soldiers and soldiers, eggs were given every day, sometimes duck eggs, sometimes eggs.
Now that the soldiers have eaten, they should be dispatched to carry out the guard mission, and most of the soldiers have eaten, only a small number of soldiers and civilians are the second round of food.
Qin Haoming twisted his head towards Wafangdian, the morning sun was very hot, the city had nothing to hide in the sun, and the city tower and the city head were full of black and oppressive crowds.
Today, the sentry cavalry of the Dingnan Army is getting closer, and a large number of small groups of cavalry are galloping back and forth, even approaching within 100 paces.
When Qin Haoming saw a small group of cavalry approaching, hundreds of herdsmen and armor soldiers suddenly fired a volley at the head of the city!
Far away, you can hear the sound of bowstrings and arrows in the air.
But these arrows were useless against that cavalry!
The strength of the bow and arrow is too soft, and it looks close to a hundred paces, and the accuracy of the arrow is also very good, but most of the time it looks weak when it flies in mid-air.
When they had reached about a hundred paces, most of the arrows had already fallen to the ground, and they were planted obliquely in the turf, as if they had planted a large field of reeds on the ground.
Only a handful of arrows reached the heads of the cavalrymen by the force of the wind, and the cavalrymen had already drawn their swords in their hands, and the swords danced to knock the weak arrows away.
For ordinary people, it was a little scary for this iron arrow to fly towards the front door.
But for veterans, it is very clear whether the arrows have any strength, whether they want to dodge or can be blocked, even if these arrows are not blocked, they have no power, and there is no.
A small number of feather arrows were blocked, Hu Handong also played a trick, an arrow flew past the door in front of him, and the person leaned forward and actually caught the feather arrow with his mouth!
"Good!"
"Strong!"
Many soldiers who lined up to fight applauded together, especially those who did not receive at night, and even applauded their comrades desperately.
"This person's name is Hu Handong, Li Xiang doesn't accept hundreds of households in Jiaziying at night, and plans to be promoted to deputy thousand households and give Li Xiang as a helper."
Li Shouye, the third division of the chamberlain, was in charge of the official merit promotion, and introduced to Qin Haoming: "Born in the Tianxiong Army, he has fought for more than ten years.
It's just that he doesn't follow the rules very well, and he can't pass the cultural class, so he has been a hundred households for many years and leads the cavalry of the Jiazi battalion. ”
"Unruly?" Qin Haoming smiled: "Didn't Yuan Heng trouble him? ”
Li Shouye bowed and said: "Hu Handong's festival is still over, the military order is not discounted, there is a small violation of discipline in ordinary times, Li Qianhu protects him again, and he will tolerate it if he wants to come to Director Yan." ”
"Huh? What kind of friendship does Director Li have with this hundred households? ”
Qin Haoming didn't expect Li Shouye to say good things for this military man in a serious manner, but he knew that Li Shouye's old-fashioned Ming official style despised the military man the most.
Coupled with the fact that his eyes have always looked up and down, his reputation in the Governor's Palace is not very good.
But this person has real learning, and many things are handled perfectly, and Qin Haoming also uses it. But on weekdays, he is also a little wary of him, and he does not trust Yan Yingyuan, Hong Dixin and others as much.
"Qi Qi Governor Qin, I don't have any friendship with Hu Handong, I am purely in accordance with the normal procedures of the Governor's Mansion for review and promotion, please Governor Qin Mingjian."
Li Shouye said solemnly.
He looked so formal, not as sneering as usual, Qin Haoming was really a little unaccustomed to it for a while.
Glancing at him in surprise, Qin Haoming nodded silently, expressing his approval.
At this time, another young cavalryman on the field showed his riding skills, and when the arrow flew forward, the whole cavalryman leaned back, and the arrow flew through the front door, and then quickly straightened up his waist.
There was another burst of thunderous applause, Li Shouye recognized it, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Li Fugui of the cavalry?" Dare to love the two sides more energetic? ”
"These guys, don't die, what kind of prestige, this is a battlefield? Let the Judge Advocate Advocate General's Department stop it, nonsense! ”
Having said that, there is still a faint joy in the tone, anyone can hear it?
What you want is this spirit, so that you can compete with the Tartars.
The Tartars on the head of the city have become a mess, their morale is already low, and bows and arrows are their biggest reliance and pride, and now this Ming army is not afraid, so what else is there to rely on?
