Chapter 278: The First Battalion of the Pioneer of the Zhu Family Army, Hurrying Forward!
The horn sounded, and the Qing and Mongol soldiers fled under the city. Only corpses and instruments were left all over the city!
However, compared to the fact that there are still many dead bodies of the Qing army on the city wall, there are relatively few dead bodies of the Qing soldiers under the city. Because there is a rule within the Qing army, if a companion dies in battle, as long as you can bring his body back.
Then you can divide half of this person's property, and if he has no children, only a wife and family property, you can choose one of the two.
Either ask the wife of this dead Qing soldier companion to go home XXOO and be your woman. Or take half of his property.
Well, if it were me, I would definitely want women to not have money.
Because, this can get both people and money, hahaha!
Therefore, the dead bodies of Qing soldiers are not only precious military merits for Ming soldiers. Similarly, for their own people, it is also a consolation prize, and even sometimes, it is higher than the income of grabbing Daming.
Therefore, the Ming army fought against the Qing army, and it was very rare to grab the dead bodies of Qing soldiers as a war merit.
The Ming border army has a twenty-level military merit system, the lowest level of the first class, as long as you can kill a Qing soldier, you can get it. If you don't want military merits, the head of a Qing soldier can be exchanged for ten taels of rewards, and in special periods, it can even reach twenty or thirty taels.
And in terms of the salary level of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, killing a Qing army at random is equivalent to the sum of your salary for a year, or even several years.
Among them, the weight of the reward has to be said to be very kind.
As long as the court's reward can be 100% in place, let alone the invasion of 100,000 wild boar skins by the Qing army, even if it is a million, it will not be enough for the attack of the Ming soldiers who are red-eyed in order to make a fortune.
However, the ideal is very plump, but the reality is extremely skinny.
In the late Ming Dynasty, there was everything, but there was no money. Ordinary wages are in arrears, and corrupt officials are rampant.
Are the soldiers motivated to kill the enemy?
Now that Zhu Zilong has crossed over, the clone of the Shanzhai Emperor has made a windfall in recent months.
At this moment, Ma Chao watched the retreat of the Qing army under the city, not without thinking about attacking again, after all, the results of defeating the water dogs must be good.
However, he soon found out that he was wrong.
The Qing army was still relatively chaotic on the city wall, but it was under the city wall. Most of them were defeated but not chaotic when they ran, and they were also orderly when they fled, so that the Ming army had no chance to take advantage of it. I have to say, it's really a strong soldier!
Ma Chao looked at his subordinates, all of whom were injured, and had to give up his plan to attack again.
Watching the Qing army flee, there was cheers on the city, and the news of the victory reached the fort, and the city was also jubilant.
Soon, under the order of Ma Chao, the city and the city began to clean up the battlefield, and all the dead and wounded on their own side were carried away for rescue, and the auxiliary soldiers carried large buckets of water to wash the city.
The corpses of the dead Qing soldiers on the city wall, their weapons were put away, their armor was recorded, all their heads were cut off, and all the bodies were piled up in one place. And then a fire burned all!
The few wounded Qing soldiers who did not die on the city wall were also stabbed with a single shot and killed them with knives and axes.
Soon, hundreds of young and strong auxiliaries of the city went out of the city, and they burned the ladders under the city walls. Burned the shield wagons of the Qing soldiers not far from the city, dug the trench again, and rearranged the thistles and other things. Make sure your defense is not lost!
In the process of cleaning up, the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty laughed loudly with each other. However, when it comes to the fierce battle, when there are brothers in the team who are killed or wounded, many people shed tears again.
War is indeed merciless!
They are busy trying to survive, but they don't know that a giant eagle in the sky is watching them intently.
Zhu Zilong's cottage reconnaissance machine, the little brother of the ape eater carving, on the orders of the master, is making every effort to investigate the situation at the border in the past few days.
The whole process of the war just now when the horsepower overtook the city was seen by the ape-eating eagle.
With an eagle cry from the ape-eating eagle, the next minute, it disappeared into the sky. Fly in the direction of Zhu Jiajun, who was on the road and was ordered to be the king of Qin. It is ready to report the latest investigation situation to Zhu Zilong's body in the team!
The fastest bird in the world is known to fly the sharp-tailed swift, which flies at a speed of 170 km/h and can reach a maximum of 352.5 km/h, which is the fastest bird. It's a sonic bird!
When the eagle flies long distances, it is naturally not as fast as the sharp-tailed swift, but it also has an average of 80-100 kilometers per hour. In addition, eagles also have a unique skill, that is, the speed of Fu Chong and turn to catch prey, which is as fast as lightning, and is known as the fastest among all birds.
In other words, eagles are like cheetahs. The usual speed is medium to high, but when it comes to acceleration sprints and turns in short bursts, it is the fastest in its class.
The world's martial arts, only fast and unbreakable, makes it not only particularly sharp when attacking, but also will not be injured.
The fort of Ma Chao is located near Xuanfu in Datong, the Great Wall of Pingyuan Fort from Jizhen Sihaiye to Pingyuan Fort in Datong Town, because the chief military officer is located in Xuanhua Mansion, so it is called Xuanfu Town.
Xuanfu Town (Zhixuanfu, now Xuanhua, Hebei Province in the 21st century).
From Xuanfu to Yantai, Shandong, the whole journey is more than 2,000 miles. Of course, Zhu Zilong, who has now set off with the army, is not sitting in Yantai, Shandong, and marching in a large number of carriages all the way.
Now Zhu Zilong's Zhu family army is in the later place, but the vanguard army is only a few and is not far from the capital.
Therefore, Zhu Zilong's original body is only about eight or nine hundred miles away from the vicinity of Xuanfu at most.
At the speed of an eagle, it will take more than three hours at most to spy on the military intelligence and return, even if you add a round trip and more reconnaissance, that is, half a day or most of the time.
At night, more than 2,000 soldiers in the first military camp of the Zhu family army temporarily rested halfway. They were all one man and two horses, with strange helmets on their heads (for police, order online), and bulletproof stab-proof vests under leather armor.
Big-headed police leather shoes are available to everyone, and behind them is a similar piece of equipment with a lot of things inside. Around the waist is a burst of strong guns and disguised shooting guns. Straddle the back with two flintlock pistols that are tightly held on your body!
Individual soldiers and officers, who were physically strong and confident in themselves, were even tied with three or four flintlock pistols.
In addition to the soldiers who are fully armed, the horses riding under the buttocks are also protected. They all made a large area of stab-proof clothing cloth for the horses to wear. Lightweight and sturdy, it's a step up from armor!
"End of break, let's go!" With Zhu Zilong's order, it was issued.
The soldiers quickly mounted their horses and put out the fire. Line up neatly and walk in turn.
It was another night and an hour of rapid marching, and it was already half past five in the morning. It was still dark, and he was again ordered to rest and have breakfast.
Immediately, some of the carriages that followed not far behind the vanguard army immediately came.
These carriages are elaborately crafted, with two covers erected and a tarpaulin on top, which is a breakfast point. When all kinds of instant noodles were soaked for breakfast, they used self-heating heating packets, and the soldiers ate them in an orderly manner.
They were the vanguard army, more than 2,000 people rushed to the march.
The large army was dozens of miles behind, or even more than a hundred miles behind. It was composed of officers and soldiers of the 3rd Army Battalion and the Linqing Fiefdom, as well as various artillery teams and baggage brigades.
Wait until breakfast is ready, and throw a box of Kang Shifu instant noodles around. A rhythmic horn sounded from the mouths of the herald soldiers, and immediately, a group of soldiers quickly lined up, mounted their horses, and prepared to continue on the road.
Wang Quan, the eunuch who guarded the Yantai town and supervised the army, just breathed a sigh of relief in the special carriage. Seeing the style of the first battalion of the Zhu family's army, I was extremely impressed at the moment. He thought to himself, if he was a soldier of the Dengzhou battalion, why would he have to toss for half an hour before he could go on the road for this breakfast, right?
However, if you look at the first battalion of the Zhu family's army, it is only a moment before and after. Slightly compared, and the judgment is made. This is a strong army, an elite army!
Soon the sun of dawn rose and shone on the march of the early winter morning.
And, at this moment, in the distant sky, a giant eagle was flying towards this side-
