The war between the European Catholic League and the Ottoman Empire finally ended in the year 2559 of the Holy Calendar, at the end of 1717 A.D. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As for the result, it was about the same as what had been agreed before.

But it's only between them that ends.

The war between the Ottoman Empire and Russia and Persia is not over, and Ahmet III is not ready to end, he has lost too much in this war, which can be said to be the second most powerful country in the world after the Ming Dynasty, and was dismembered into a second-rate commodity by a group of tigers and leopards and jackals, although he really has no way to take those tigers and leopards, but there is not much pressure to beat a few little jackals.

The elite of the Ottoman army, armed with a full set of Ming munitions, immediately rushed to the Caucasus after withdrawing from the Balkan battlefield.

Then there was a tragedy in Russia and Persia.

It's not that the Ottoman army can't fight, in fact, the Ottoman army at this time is still in its heyday, after all, it has only been thirty years since they besieged Vienna, although Ahmet III lost a large amount of territory, but his powerful guards are still there, if it weren't for the rise of the Ming Dynasty, they just had 200,000 troops at this time in history to look at Russia! Now with superior equipment and anger, Peter and Hussein can't stop it.

In a very short time, the situation on the battlefield in the Caucasus was reversed.

The Russian and Persian armies suffered a crushing defeat.

The former quickly lost the breakthrough they had just captured in the Caucasus, and then retreated to the Don River under the pursuit of the Ottoman army, but the Ottoman navy escorted the army across the Black Sea, crossed the Kerch Strait with the tacit consent of the Swedes, and landed in Port Azov, quickly captured the fortress that had belonged to them, and then launched an attack on Tsaritsyn, another Russian stronghold, and poor Peter had to fight a battle for the defense of Stalingrad in the spring of 1717, which had been two centuries ahead of schedule.

May he have a will of steel.

And his brother-in-law, Hussein, not only lost all the Ottoman territories he had previously captured, but also lost the old capital of Persia, Tabriz......

Again, it was because the city had been captured by the Ottomans many times, which was why the Persians moved the capital to Isfahan, and this time they only used a scorched earth policy to destroy everything they had done many times before to prevent the Ottomans from continuing to pursue the Persian Plateau, but fortunately, this trick was still very effective as many times before, and the terrain of the Persian Plateau and the difficulty of supply stopped the Ottomans.

But it didn't help.

Because there is not only one enemy of them.

"Forward, forward!"

Gao Yang stood on a martial arts chariot, shouting excitedly like a military general standing on an ancient chariot.

He was surrounded by countless of the same chariots, a phalanx formed by a vehicle-mounted infantry brigade of the Ming army, like a German armored cluster blitzkrieg on the plains of Western Europe, with countless horses and wheels raising sand and dust, rolling forward with an unstoppable majesty, and around them was the desperate struggle of the Persian army, which had been overwhelmed by the cavalry, which brandished scimitars, flintlock muskets, bows and arrows, and attacked the mobile castle with all possible means, and then the Ming soldiers in the carriage lay on their stomachs, playing the game of target shooting with ease, Watch as the enemy keeps falling off his horse amid the sound of gunfire.

The Ming army launched an attack on Persia.

There is no reason, no excuse, no reason, no excuse, no excuse, Lao Tzu wants to beat you up, that's enough.

A cavalry brigade of the Sixth Army assaulted.

They are equipped with a new type of vehicle-mounted rapid-fire cannon does not need to deploy time, the four-horse-drawn load-bearing carriage stops, the four fixed piles at the four corners fall down, you can directly open fire, in the face of the Persians hastily assembled 20,000 cavalry, eighteen rapid-fire guns at a rate of thousands of rounds per minute, the shells fired at a rate of thousands of rounds per minute, at once tore apart the Persian formation, and then in their confusion, the Ming cavalry with spears launched a charge, after only one impact the Persians were defeated, and then the Ming cavalry pursued, Completely disperse the defeated Persians.

Then there is the vehicle-mounted infantry.

"Quick, rush to Ahvaz before dark, send a Persian girl to each person, I like a Persian girl!"

Brigadier Gao shouted excitedly.

The soldiers in the chariots around him immediately burst into laughter.

Obviously, they can't wait for the Persian female nu, because of historical reasons, the Persian female nu is a hot commodity in the Ming Dynasty, even second only to the white slave, and the senior generals of the Ming army in the war zone are almost all hooked up with slave traders, and the Sixth Army, which did not get the legendary treasure in Basra, is full of enthusiasm for capturing female nu in Persia.

And their target is Ahvaz.

Or the original historical Iranian province of Khuzestan Province, which is not only the most important grain producing area in Persia, but also has 70% of the entire Persian oil underground, as for attacking Persia in depth, this Ming army is not very interested, if the strength of only one army is deep in the vast sea of the people's war, it is not a good thing, this is very clear to the Ming army.

"Brigade commander, there is a situation ahead!"

At this time, a soldier shouted at Gao Yang.

At the same time, in the sky overhead, an airship slowly flew in, and then fired a warning flare from the airship.

"Prepare for battle, there is an ambush ahead!"

Gao Yang stared at the airship with a telescope, and immediately shouted when he looked at the flags emanating from it.

As soon as he finished saying this, the reconnaissance cavalry team in the distance hurriedly rushed over, and soon rushed into the car formation, and the captain of the Ming cavalry led by him even had a hint of panic, and saluted with his fists on his horse and said: "Brigade commander, there are a large number of enemy troops rushing towards us!" ”

"What's the panic?"

Gao Yang shouted with a calm face: "Is it the first time you have been on the battlefield?" ”

"There are too many enemy troops."

The cavalry swallowed and said, "There are so many that I can't count them at all, at least forty or fifty thousand horses!" ”

"Huh?!"

Gao Yang exclaimed: "Quick, stop advancing, form a formation, Ma, send a telegram to the cavalry brigade, ask Wang Ping what that bastard is doing, why there is still a large Persian army, and tell him not to give me a reasonable explanation, he doesn't expect his son to marry my daughter." ”

Poor cavalry brigade commander Wang Ping was also stunned after receiving a telegram from his future in-laws, he was about to rush to Ahvaz at this time, the tactics of the Ming army were that he was responsible for disrupting the Persian army, and then the rest was handed over to the infantry to clean up, and the main force that the Persians in this area could gather was 20,000 horses, which were all reconnoitred before the war, and the rest was Ahvaz's defenders, who rushed to Ahvaz with this tactic, and after ensuring the safety along the way, another infantry brigade escorted the artillery brigade over, and the rest of Ahvaz was shattered even if it was iron.

But where did these 40,000 or 50,000 people come from?

This is not scientific at all, and the Persians will certainly not have an army of forty or fifty thousand again, and their armies are fighting the Ottomans in the north!

The cavalry brigade, which had already distanced itself from the infantry brigade, immediately turned around and returned with a look of bewilderment.

"This is your army of forty or fifty thousand?"

And stopped on the spot, and quickly formed a car city of Gao Yang, his lips trembling and pointed forward to ask the cavalry captain.

The latter nodded solemnly.

Outside their car city, there are Persians like a tide of corpses, led by the elders of the temple and seminary students, holding all kinds of weapons, and even some people are holding powder kegs in their arms, shouting the slogan of the great lord of Zhen, while walking towards the car city of the Ming army, the number is more than forty or fifty thousand, and even sixty thousand is possible, but the old and the young, and even minors, these people don't seem to see the rapid-fire cannons and howitzers that are aiming at them in the Ming army's car city. also ignored the muzzles of the guns sticking out from behind the guards of each Wugang car, and kept moving forward like a walk.

Well, this is Zhen Lord Warrior.

"Fire!"

Gao Yang said speechlessly.

The howitzer roared first, and the flames of the shell explosion exploded among the warriors, and the severed limbs and severed arms flew up in the flames, but the warriors were undaunted, and the elders among them shouted the slogan of the Great Lord, and then all the warriors kept the rhythm like a machine and continued to move forward.

"Rapid-fire cannon!"

Gao Yang roared.

The six rapid-fire cannons immediately erupted in flames, and the small-caliber shells exploded densely among the warriors, and the warriors fell one by one, but they remained undaunted, and the elders held up the scriptures and read the teachings of the gods with holy faces in front of the cannonballs.

"Shoot!"

Gao Yang wiped a cold sweat and said.

The outside of the Ming Army Checheng was like a volcanic eruption, and countless flames erupted instantly, and then the Zhen main warriors on the opposite side fell down a layer together, but at the same time, with the crazy roar of those elders, all the Zhen main warriors began to run towards the Ming Army Checheng. And the Ming army in Checheng fired at the fastest speed, and at the same time, all the artillery rapid-fire guns and even rockets behind also poured fire at the fastest speed towards the main warriors of zhen, in the explosion of shells and the roar of bullets, the dead bodies of the main warriors of zhen kept falling one by one, and behind them, it was completely a sea of corpses and blood.

But even then, they were charging.

Gao Yang knew he was in trouble.

Because he wanted to pursue speed, he didn't carry too much barbed wire, so he only symbolically erected a few lines on the periphery.

Soon after dropping countless dead bodies, the Zhen main warriors rushed to the front of the barbed wire, and then the front ones did not hesitate to pounce on it, using their flesh and blood to open the way for the compatriots behind, while the Ming army opposite them did not hesitate to throw dense grenades, even white phosphorus grenades, but those Zhen main warriors were still moving forward one after another.

Looking at those enemies who kept pounced on the barbed wire, Gao Yang even had a feeling of numbness in his scalp.

"Wear a gas mask!"

He gave the order with a blank face.

Because the wind was not in the right direction, he did not order the use of this thing.

All the Ming soldiers took out their gas masks and put them on their heads as quickly as they could, and then grabbed their rifles with bayonets, and it was at this moment that a thunderous cheer was heard in front of them.

Stepping on the corpses of their companions, the Persians rushed through the barbed wire. (To be continued.) )
