A group of horsemen galloped down the road, most of them on two horses, carrying rifles and dry rations, which made them look a little too messy. These cavalry came from the rebels of the Far East, the so-called Jin State troops. Along the way, they frantically rushed westward from the tore Mukden breach, and they were exhausted and rushed to their current position.

Even more unfortunate than them were the units responsible for towing howitzers, which drove wagons and towed 100 mm towed howitzers, which were even more tiring, and even about half of them could not keep up with the cavalry advance, and are still struggling halfway through.

"I didn't have a good time...... When the old emperor led the troops to start an incident, he promised to reduce the land rent and tax of the entire territory of Liaodong by 30%, and my father at that time, if it wasn't for the Ming Dynasty often coming to grab things, it would be much stronger than now. A cavalryman, on horseback, complained to his comrades.

Farther away, thousands of horses were climbing over the hills, over the smoke-filled woodlands, and along the plains all the way west, as if they were about to burn the whole land. They were all ancestors of the Han people, survived the bitter cold migration, intermarried with the local Jurchens, and turned the earth under their feet into their homes.

However, when they took up arms and fought for a few, they stood on the opposite side of their homeland for their own selfish interests. Most of these people are Han Chinese, but they sneered at their compatriots with yellow skin and black eyes like themselves with disdain, calling these people Nangou and Minggou.

And just as they were crossing the border like locusts, the so-called southern dogs in their eyes had already aimed their weapons at these cavalrymen who claimed to be experienced in a hundred battles. The city of Jinzhou is not an unprepared plate of loose sand, but Wang Jue, a cannibal tiger cub.

Originally, the general Todeltay had planned to attack Jinzhou, but he took his tired cavalry troops and crashed headlong into a defensive line that was stronger than Linghai. The new army troops brought by Wang Jue included more than 30,000 people, including the military headquarters of the group army, and the troops that were really thrown on the front by Wang Jue were only more than 8,000 soldiers of the military headquarters of the group army under his direct jurisdiction.

These soldiers are troops that have not yet been expanded into the 3rd Division, their training has been completed, and each soldier can be said to be the highest quality soldier in the world, and the weapons they control can also be said to be the most sophisticated war machinery in the world.

"The artillery has been leveled!" Holding the level, a New Army soldier reported the latest adjustment data to the officers next to him, these 150 mm heavy guns were all towed by trains, and it was because of these huge weapons that they occupied the railway, so most of the New Army soldiers had to rush to the front line by cars and horses.

Wang Jue spent a lot of gold coins to arm his troops, and from the moment they were born, this army was fundamentally different from the traditional old-style army, they were all professional soldiers, and they were the highest quality professional soldiers in the world. These soldiers can learn to wield the latest and greatest weaponry, and each has the leadership skills to become the backbone of an entire army that can sustain millions of people.

Of course, apart from the difference in personnel, this unit can definitely break through all previous impressions of the army in terms of equipment - just a traditional infantry division has a full 30 150 mm heavy guns, which is a third more than the elite troops of other countries.

Together with the six 200-millimeter heavy artillery pieces directly under the military headquarters of the group army, and the 30 artillery units of the same 150 millimeter caliber that had not yet been completely reorganized, the 3rd Division had already put in place the same 150-millimeter artillery units, and Wang Jue's heavy artillery units in Jinzhou City were almost three times more than Todeltai estimated.

"When General Feng Pingzhang left Jinzhou, he left 15 100 mm caliber cannons as supporting fire, and our infantry regiment also had such artillery in their hands, all of which had been deployed on the enemy's offensive defensive line, and if Todeltai attacked Jinzhou, he would probably remember today's losses for the rest of his life." When Wang Yan reported on the deployment of troops, he made a rare joke about Wang Jue.

"It took me almost a year to build this force in my hands, and if this force today does not give me hope of future victory, it will make me more desperate than losing Jinzhou." Wang Jue stands on the ancient city walls near Jinzhou City, which have now been abandoned for decades and can only be used as monuments to pay homage.

"Report!" An officer ran to Wang Jue and Wang Yan's side, stood upright, saluted, and said, "The rebels have begun to attack my first line of defense, Colonel Deng Xiaofei asked the two commanders to return to the headquarters. ”

"It's just a Todeltay, and I don't need to take command in person." Wang Jue smiled and said to the officers who rushed over: "Tell Colonel Guo Xiaofei that I will give him command of this battle...... If you want to eat Jinzhou City, you have to make the rebels break their teeth. ”

"Fire!" In the foxhole behind the barbed wire, an officer of the Ming Empire gave the order to attack his men, and the rebels who were driving their horses towards Jinzhou City also shouted at the same time. For a while, the gunfire began to intensify, bullets whistled back and forth between the two sides, blood splattered, war horses neighed, and a large wheat field turned into a hell on earth in an instant.

"Fire!" Colonel Deng Xiaofei, who sat in the command headquarters, was a young commander who was picked up by Wang Jue, and his promotion in rank was almost accompanied by the growth and change of the entire new army. It can be said that compared with some officers who joined halfway, his feelings for the entire New Army are not under the commander Wang Jue.

After hearing the order given to him by Wang Jue, the young officer calmly grabbed the phone and gave the order to start the attack on the artillery position at the other end: "An ammunition base, attack according to the area covered by the pre-test firing." ”

Putting down the telephone receiver in their hands, the commanders began to give orders one after another on the various artillery positions of the new army, the flag soldiers kept waving the flags in their hands, and all the gunners were shaking the crank in their hands to adjust the artillery to the best firing angle.

The loaders then held the shells and stuffed the dangerous objects into the chambers, and then the gunners skillfully closed the bolts. A series of tactical maneuvers were carried out in one go, and even most of the gunners completed their preparations at the same time, and they quietly knelt on one knee or stood on either side of the artillery, and sounded the cold artillery around them with expressionless faces.
