Chapter 643: Dead People, Negligible......

The main purpose of the Mongols' southward march was, of course, to obtain population and supplies, but also to distribute more loot, obviously to accumulate more military exploits. According to the principle of the Dajin Kingdom, the person who has made the greatest achievements in war can get the most spoils of war. Therefore, it is not that whoever grabs it is whom, and it needs to be redistributed. If you don't have military exploits, even if you grab the wealth in your hand, most of it will have to be handed over.

Sun Chengzong, a scholar of the Ming Kingdom, once analyzed that the Tatars attached so much importance to military exploits, which was the main reason for the continuous rise of the Dajin Kingdom. Looting is important, but merit is even more important. Therefore, the lower-level soldiers of the Dajin Army have never been afraid of gnawing hard bones, and they have never been afraid of fierce battles with the Ming army. Because, they know that even if they can't loot the loot, as long as they have military exploits, the last loot will definitely be indispensable to them.

Combat merit is said to be the most critical factor. If you want to achieve outstanding feats, you must achieve impressive results. It seems that the current Nanzhili has only one of the most dazzling results, and that is Zhang Zhun's head. Even if the Jingshi is knocked down, there is no dazzling head from Zhang Zhun. The whole Dajin Kingdom did not have a unified opinion on attacking the Jingshi. However, there is a high degree of unanimity on the seizure of Zhang Zhun's head.

Whoever can get Zhang Zhun's head will be the most dazzling hero, there is no doubt about it. Huang Taiji let Haoge serve as the main attacker, just to let Haoge seize this most dazzling feat. Hadan Batel wants to join in the fun, and he also wants to get a piece of the pie from Dongjiabao. Even if it's a stain of light. This feats are very dazzling, as long as they are polished, there are good rewards.

"Yours are the reward!"

"You've got a chance!"

Hauge's mood was quite good, and he smiled when he answered, as if he was very affectionate. But his answer has naturally taken on a bit of an official tone. Obviously, Hauge was not prepared to give the Mongols a piece of the pie. Because, once the Mongols intervened, it would be a bit unfavorable for him to distribute the war merits in the future. Now he doesn't want to use any external force, so he uses his own strength to conquer Dongjiabao.

In fact, the strength of Haoge's subordinates, under the special deployment of Huang Taiji, is already very strong. In addition to the full 7,500 cavalry with yellow flags, there are also indigenous infantry, Han army flags, and Korean servant army.

Hadanbatel couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Hauge's refusal, of course, he heard it. His kindness was obviously not accepted by Hauge. In other words, the idea that he wants a piece of the pie is impossible to achieve. But there is no way, since Hauge does not agree to participate in the attack, he can only accept it.

Vaguely, Hadanbatel couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with this Hauge. Although I know that you also need military exploits, but I just sent people to get rid of it, and I didn't steal your limelight, so why should you refuse people thousands of miles away? Tate is a little stingy. How can such a stingy person inherit the throne of the Dajin Kingdom in the future?

Of course, Hadan Batel did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with Huang Taiji, but for Hauge, Hadan Baatel did have some ideas. Haoge was so stingy, and when he was in Naturalization City, he was so greedy that he emptied all the property left by Lin Dan Khan, and not even a single wool was left. If Hauge inherits the throne in the future, the Mongols will have a hard time. I heard that Haoge has a lot of enemies in the Dajin Kingdom, but I am afraid that his sweat position is not as stable as Huang Taiji!

Even after taking refuge in the Dajin Kingdom, Hadan Batel still believed in his heart that he was a Mongol first, and then a member of the Dajin Kingdom. The standpoint of all issues should be to think from the perspective of the Mongols. In the past, the majesty of the Mongolian Great Khan swept **, making their descendants extremely envious. It's a pity that all this no longer exists.

"Alas......"

Hadanbatel sighed quietly, his gaze wandering.

Suddenly, his gaze collided with that of Arislan. He instantly felt the deep eyes of Arislan, which seemed to have some special meaning. Hadanbaatle's heart shook slightly. Could it be that Azhislan also has some ideas? It seems that it is necessary to communicate in private. After all, everyone is Mongolian, isn't it?

The Halashen tribe and the Tumut tribe both succumbed to the force of the Dajin Kingdom and had to submit, and there were too many differences from the Horqin tribe. With the help of the force of the Dajin Kingdom, the Horqin tribe continued to erode and annex various small tribes of Mongolia, making the strength of the two tribes of Harashen and Tumut continue to shrink. This inevitably led to a conflict between the three Mongol tribes.

However, in the case of the strong military force of the Dajin Kingdom, they can only acquiesce in such a result. With their abilities, there was simply no way to resist any decision made by Emperor Taiji. If the two people's disagreement is discovered by Huang Taiji, I am afraid that it will be very difficult in the future. Therefore, the two quickly exchanged glances, and then both subconsciously looked away, as if they had never made eye contact.

Of course, Hauge didn't know Hadanbatel's inner thoughts, and now he was just full of longing for the future. Take Dongjiabao and capture or kill Zhang Zhun alive, and the sweat position will be a certainty. Thinking that he was about to inherit the high sweat position, Hauge felt that he felt a feeling of being hot all over, his blood was boiling, and his mood was surging.

"All parts are ready."

"Attack in half an hour."

Hauge gave the order with great ambition.

"Doot toot!"

The agitated horn constantly echoed in the field.

This was the clarion call to prepare for the attack, and all the troops involved in the attack, hearing the horn, came out of their positions one after another and concentrated in the open space in front. And the tiger army of Dongjiabao, when they heard this horn, was also slightly shocked, and they came out of the hidden soldier cave one after another, went up to the city, and held the tiger Ben gun that had been loaded with ammunition, and waited for the battle.

The long-awaited war has officially begun.

The leader was Geng Zhongming's Han military banner. Geng Zhongming took the initiative to win this task. He was a little hot-headed, and he felt that it would not be very difficult to conquer Dongjiabao. If he doesn't actively compete for such a first prize, he may not have a chance in the future. Kong Youde didn't know what to do, presumably it was more than lucky. After Kong Youde died, the two most powerful people in the Han Army Banner were his monk Kexi. He hopes to take this opportunity to suppress Shang Kexi.

That's right, Azig was indeed defeated before, showing a certain strength of the Tiger Army. However, Geng Zhongming believes that it was the result of Azig's careless trick. If the two sides put on a posture and did not use conspiracy, Zhang Zhun would definitely not be Azig's opponent. At the beginning, there were tens of thousands of troops in Dongjiang Town, but they were all beaten by Azig, and there was no chance to go ashore at all.

Geng Zhongming even believed that the Dajin Army was going south with all its might, and the Tiger Ben Army in Dongjiabao might have retreated long ago. The current Dongjiabao is very likely to be an empty shell. After Zhang Zhun shook a shot here, he would quickly retreat. Does Zhang Zhun think that relying on a small castle like Dongjiabao, which is not as good as an ordinary county town, can he stop the iron hooves of the Dajin Army?

Geng Zhongming's traitor team mainly used firearms such as three-eyed guns, thunderbolts, and flying birds. Their main task was to press near the city wall of Dongjiabao, and then fire guns at the head of the city, kill and injure the defenders at the head of the city at close range, and cover the Korean servants behind to set up ladders. At the same time, in these traitor teams, there are also some people who carry ladders and participate in the attack.

Behind them is the Korean servant army. These North Korean servants, basically without any decent weapons, are completely in the role of sappers. Every four of them carried a ladder and swarmed forward. For them, as long as the ladder is sent to the city wall of Dongjiabao, the task is completed. The walls of Dongjiabao are not high, and the ladders are completely sufficient. Three thousand Korean servants carried seven or eight hundred ladders. Hundreds of ladders were erected together, enough for the defenders to have a headache.

"!"

"These traitors!"

Yang Zixuan saw all this from the clairvoyant mirror, and couldn't help but scold.

Because he has encountered too many traitors, he no longer has a feeling of anger, and when he sees the traitors appear, he can only scold two sentences stupidly, and he owes one more sentence. Because of too much scolding, it is easy to affect your emotions and affect your ability to make calm judgments. For traitors, there is only one way to deal with the Tiger Ben Army, and that is: kill! Unless the opponent has lost the ability to fight, otherwise, there will be no mercy!

Behind them are the Tartars of the prison army, and the traitors of the Han Army Banner, of course, do not dare to slack off. They hurried forward, armed with firearms and ladders. It seems that these traitors are not afraid of the blows of the Tiger Ben Army at all, and they are really courageous. Zhang Zhun carefully examined several traitors in the clairvoyant mirror and found that their expressions were numb. Their eyes, too, were numb, and they felt as if they were the walking dead.

In fact, after taking refuge with the Tartars, most of the rebel soldiers were trained as walking dead by the Tartars in various cruel methods. The Tartars don't need any affection from these rebels, they just need them to kill. In the frenzied killing frenzy of the south, most of them have lost themselves and become pure killing machines. If you are a sober person, how can you work so hard as the executioner of the Tartars?

Immediately behind the Han military flag were the two Tatars of Korea. These North Korean Ertars are equally hateful, and under the obscenity of the Tartars, they use the killing of Han Chinese as a channel to vent. Some people even regard the killing of Han Chinese as the greatest pleasure. Falling on the hands of the Tartars, it could be killed with a single knife. But in the hands of these North Korean Tatars, it is possible to be tortured to death, unable to survive, unable to die. Every time the Tartars went south, these Korean Tartars often acted as the vanguard and the executioners of the Han people.

In the middle of the Han military flag and the Korean two tartars, there are a small number of real tartars. They are the overseers who are stationed there. Under the shouting of these Tartars, the running speed of the traitors and the two Tartars is quite fast. Soon, the enemy was within the range of 150 feet of the Wyvern Cannon Grape Projectile.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

Xu Ziwen shouted in a deep voice.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

A series of cannon shots rang out, and the Flying Dragon Cannon of the Tiger Ben Army was fired.

The Wyvern Cannon is no longer a secret weapon, the Tartar knows it completely, and there is no need to keep it secret. Now, when the enemy enters the range of grape shells, it is naturally overwhelming. Sure enough, grapeslet bullets scattered across the sky and turned into life-threatening marbles. The marbles splattered and then landed fiercely in the middle of the enemy.

The traitors and North Korean Tatars who were hit by marbles kept screaming and fell, and there was a wail on the battlefield. The firearms they carried, along with ladders, lay on the ground. Some of the enemies behind were unable to catch up and tripped over the ladder in an instant. The blood that flowed made the field very slippery, and if you were not careful, you would also fall.

Sometimes, even a lot of enemies fall to the ground together, and no one knows what's going on. At one point, the scene was quite chaotic. With the counterattack of the Tiger Army, the ranks of the traitors and the Korean servant army gradually mixed together, and they could no longer distinguish each other. The surviving enemy, embarrassed, walked through the gap of the marbles and continued forward.

The distance was soon shortened to 100 zhang.

"Fire!"

Yang Zixuan also shouted.

Since Zhang Zhun is in Dongjiabao, he doesn't have to worry about the Tartars not coming to attack. Therefore, the Dingzi battalion could open fire with all its might, trying to kill as many Tartars as possible. All the battles of the Tiger Ben Army in Dongjiabao were aimed at depleting the enemy's living forces. Since the Tiger Ben can also effectively kill the enemy at a distance of 100 zhang, let the Tartar tremble in the Mini bullet!

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

In the continuous sound of gunfire, the Mini bullets whizzed away.

Sure enough, the enemy in the distance kept people falling. Many of the enemies who had just escaped the grapeballs were brought down by the sudden Mini bombs before they could figure out what was going on. The firecrackers in their hands, or the ladders, were thrown aside, and the scene was even more messy and chaotic.

Zhang Zhun held the clairvoyant mirror and calmly looked at everything on the battlefield. The attacking enemy, under the blows of grapeshot and mini bullets, kept falling, and in a few moments, hundreds of people were killed. As they continue to close, more enemies will be killed. This is a true path to death, and once you set foot on it, you will rarely have a chance to escape your fate.

However, for the top leaders on both sides, these lost lives are just a number. No one cares who is killed. Since it is a war, it will definitely kill people, and if you can't accept this, you can't appear on the battlefield as a commander. For a commander, a hard-hearted heart is a must.

In fact, for China, which is overly rich in human resources, human life is the least valuable. In foreign wars, the number of dead people is often the least, and the civil strife is the most dead. A Taiping Heavenly Kingdom killed 50 or 60 million people, almost more than the Chinese died in World War II. Wars such as five dynasties and ten kingdoms have caused a rapid decrease in population.

Looking at the falling crowd, Hauge was also expressionless. According to his arrangement, the Han military banner and the Korean servant army were originally used as cannon fodder. Their only purpose was to successfully deliver the ladder to the city wall of Dongjiabao. As long as this is achieved, everything else can be ignored.

In a few moments, the enemy was in the field outside Dongjiabao, and hundreds or thousands of corpses fell. A large amount of blood poured out, rendering the field a dark red. The enemy who followed behind had to move forward in a zigzag, because the straight path of advance had been blocked by corpses. They either took a detour or jumped over the corpse. However, there are too many corpses, and the physical strength will be quickly depleted by the constant jumping around.

Huang Taiji held a clairvoyant mirror in the back, carefully observing the battlefield. The fall of the Han army flag and the Korean servant army could not cause the slightest shock in Huang Taiji's heart. Like Hauge, Huang Taiji thinks that they are all cannon fodder, just for sacrifice. This is the beginning of the contest between the two sides, and the dead man is just a trivial detail.

"Come on! Huang Tai Chi! Hauge! ”

"you guys!"

Unlike Zhang Zhun, Yang Zixuan, the commander of the Dingzi Battalion, was very excited and shouted. He walked up and down the city, shouting loudly and constantly to boost morale.

Yang Zixuan's name is elegant, but in essence, he is still coarse, and when he gets excited, he will explode into foul language. This is true of the vast majority of officers in the Tiger Army. It turns out that on the battlefield, foul language is like a stimulant, which can effectively boost the morale of subordinates. Fighting, that's the work with the head on the waistband of the trousers, does Wen Xuanxuan want to find death?

The soldiers of the Dingzi battalion are all in high spirits and high morale. From time to time, solid bullets hit them, causing injuries to their personnel, they had no effect on the others. Those who were killed and wounded were immediately carried away, and immediately a fresh force was replenished and continued to shoot at the enemy. Looking at the enemies rushing up, falling one after another, every Tiger Ben Army soldier was full of pride in his heart.

Go to hell! Die! Look at how many of you are dying! Dead traitor, a hundred times is not enough! It's not enough to die two Tartars, and a thousand deaths are not enough! As for those real Tartars, even 10,000 deaths are not enough! If you have the ability, come up and see how the old man greets you!

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

As the enemy continues to approach, the range of the Wyvern Cannon is also constantly shortening.

A large number of grape bullet marbles are constantly splashed away, making enemies fall faster. As the enemy gets closer, their ranks inevitably become tighter, giving grapeshots a better chance of killing. As the enemy fell, a large number of ladders also fell, effectively intercepting the path of the enemy behind them and reducing their running speed.

Compared with the indiscriminate bombardment of grapeshot, the snipers around Zhang Zhun prefer to shoot one shot at a time and accurately snipe the enemy. With a large number of snipers being transferred out as officers, the sniper team was replenished with a large number of novices. After these novices entered the sniper detachment, it was the first time to participate in actual combat, and of course they had to actively express themselves.

Any enemy with a clear mark, any enemy with a special identity, any enemy that catches the attention of a sniper, is knocked over one by one at the muzzle of their guns. These so-called novices are relative to snipers. In the original troops, they were all sharpshooters, and the accuracy of marksmanship is self-evident.

At this time, the most tragic thing is, of course, the real Tartars who are mixed in the ranks of traitors and two Tartars. Their outfits are incompatible with the traitors and Tartars around them, making them the target of snipers to kill first. Bursts of gunfire rang out, and none of these Tartar guards could be seen.

Ah Zhislan, who was beside Huang Taiji, suddenly said intentionally or unintentionally: "Chechen Khan, shouldn't the cannon be a little forward?" ”

Huang Taiji shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No need. ”

If you move a little forward, you can fire grapeshot. The power of the grape bomb, Huang Taiji is also clear. However, if the Hongyi cannon is a little ahead, it will enter the firing range of the Flying Dragon Cannon of the Tiger Ben Army, which is very likely to attract the enemy's artillery to return fire.

According to Azig, although the Tiger Army did not have the powerful Hongyi cannons, there were still ordinary artillery. Pushing the red-coated cannon within the range of the enemy's artillery, of course Huang Taiji was unwilling, and he didn't want to directly engage in artillery bombardment with the Tiger Ben Army.

Arislan found that his suggestion did not work, and felt embarrassed, did not say anything, and obediently retreated. He looked at Hadan Batel beside him with a gloomy expression, and found that he was staring at Dongjiabao with all his attention, so Arislan's gaze also returned to Dongjiabao.

At this time, there were already Korean servants, carrying ladders to the city walls of Dongjiabao. They were apparently very skilled at setting up ladders, and when they reached the bottom of the walls, they immediately erected them. However, the Tartars, having withstood the blows of the Tiger Army, reached the bottom of the city walls, and there were very few of them, only a dozen ladders were erected. As a result, as soon as their ladder was erected, it was immediately knocked down.

The Cangzhou Volunteers led by Dong Huaxia and Dong Mourning Wu were very active in the city, and they kept knocking down the ladders they had erected with huge harpoons. The Korean servants erected thirty or forty ladders in a row, but they all knocked them down. The fallen ladder smashed into the enemies who followed behind, causing their heads to bleed and screaming.

However, as more traitors and two tartars come up, more ladders are erected, and it is unlikely that the ladders will be pushed down purely by hand. The speed of erecting a ladder is completely faster than the speed of pushing a ladder. Soon, around Dongjiabao, hundreds of ladders were erected.

"Up!"

Hauge hurriedly waved his hand.

A large number of native infantry immediately swarmed forward.
