After taking control of Jinzhou, Ningyuan, and Guangning, the governor of Liaodong, Zhang Li, issued a series of decrees. Of course, it can't be said to be a law on the surface, otherwise you don't need to put a good "Da Ming Law", and you try to make a new law come out, what is it if it's not a rebellion?

The Governor gave these decrees a lofty name -- "Provisional Regulations of the Imperial Colony of Tuntian", but the common people could not understand them anyway, and the scholars went around and around, and there was no word "law" on the surface.

Regarding the most core part of feudal etiquette and religion - "rank", Zhang Li did not directly object, but opened a back door: everyone, regardless of men, women, and children, can appeal to the civil department of Tuanshanbao about the decisions of parents, patriarchs, officials, etc.

This article is really a soft knife, if the father forces the children to marry, as soon as the children appeal, Wang Qifeng, who is responsible for managing the civil affairs, will stand on the side of the children. After several cases were sentenced, the atmosphere of the common people in Tuanshanbao has begun to slowly change.

For example, now Father Qi subconsciously accepted the fact that his daughter should not be forced to marry, otherwise the mining army of Iron Mountain Fort would have one more of them.

Daddy Qi was just a microcosm, he didn't realize that something deep-rooted had begun to change.

……

There was no suspense in the three-way attack of the Tuanshan Army, and it was Wanzhi's Jinzhou Army that was the first to send back the good news. Fuzhou Wei mainly includes Pulandian City and Wafangdian City, which were under the jurisdiction of Dalian in later generations, and in the Ming Dynasty, Jinzhou Wei was also Dalian in later generations, and the jurisdiction was not as large as that of later generations.

The Tartars of Fuzhou Wei were originally remnants, the city walls were in disrepair, and Wanzhi's Jinzhou army did not even attack the city head-on. After just a few volleys of shells at the walls, the Tartar defenders abandoned the city and fled north.

Wan Zhi led the Jinzhou Army into the Fuzhou Acropolis as soon as possible to suppress local security. And did not send troops in pursuit. One is that the number of Golden State troops is not large, and the other is that the Tartars fled north. To the north of Fuzhou Wei is Gaizhou Wei, where Lu Xiangsheng's 10,000 horses are waiting to clean them up.

After a few more days, Zhang Zhang finally received Lu Xiangsheng's battle report that the Acropolis of Gaizhou had been captured, and the Tuanshan army had suffered more than 2,000 casualties and annihilated about 2,000 enemy troops.

Obviously, the one-to-one battle loss can already be called a big victory for the siege war, and the tension can't be changed into aircraft, tanks, and missiles, so it can't do what the Midi is accustomed to in over-the-horizon warfare......

However, Gao Yuanliang, who attacked Haizhou Wei in the northeast, ran into trouble and couldn't open the situation for a long time.

Zhang Li strictly ordered Wan Zhi and Lu Xiangsheng to immediately lead the army to assemble at the Acropolis of Haizhou. And he himself also took a large amount of armaments and materials, set off from Jinzhou City and headed for the Haizhou Acropolis.

Gao Yuanliang set up the former enemy's headquarters in Niuzhuangyi, four miles west of the Haizhou Acropolis, and now the Tuanshan Army has gathered a total of 30,000 people to attack the Haizhou Acropolis.

Niu Zhuang Yi Zhongjun big tent, tension grim expression, sitting on the handsome position. Gao Yuanliang in the left hand, and Lu Xiangsheng in the right hand led a group of generals on the left and right, all of whom also had solemn expressions.

Zhang Zhang first glanced at Gao Yuanliang, only to see that his eye sockets were deeply sunken. In just a few days, it seems that he has become a lot haggard. Moreover, the three armies attacked the three places of the Tartars, and the other two won a great victory. Only Gao Yuanliang couldn't open the situation this way, and the anxiety in his heart can be imagined. Gao Yuanliang has always been the number one person in the Tuanshan Army in addition to tension. Now I can't take the city, it's really shameless.

Zhang Zhang spoke first: "Yuan Liang." Victory and defeat are common in soldiers, and you have not yet failed. It's just that you didn't take the city, so you don't need to blame yourself. ”

When Gao Yuanliang was ashamed in his heart, when he heard Zhang Li's warm words, he almost burst into tears. He took two steps forward, gave a military salute, and said in a deep voice: "The last general has lived up to the expectations of your lords!" ”

Zhang Zhang shook his head and said slowly: "The Acropolis of Haizhou is well defended and has many artillery, which is not easy to overcome, and it is far from being comparable to the Acropolis of Fuzhou and Gaizhou. Yuanliang, I know that you are unwilling to attack the city with your subordinates and take the city with heavy casualties......"

Gao Yuanliang only said that no one knew his thoughts, but who knew that Zhang Zhang would reveal the mystery in one sentence, and the big stone in his heart that weighed him could not breathe was finally put down. Gao Yuanliang straightened his throat and said, "My lord, the last general is indeed worried that the loss is too great, these soldiers are all veterans, and each one is very precious. Although war is bound to kill people, the losses are too great to be worth it. ”

Zhang Zhang showed an appreciative look on his face, nodded heavily, stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Since ancient times, wars have been so-called one success and ten thousand bones!" Lao Gao, I am very relieved that you put the safety of your soldiers first—you did the right thing! ”

Gao Yuanliang lowered his head and said in a low but proud tone: "The last general is ashamed. ”

The generals all had a little Jiujiu in their stomachs before, not to say that they were watching Gao Yuanliang's jokes, but that people were always a little competitive - now when they heard that Zhang Zhang appreciated Gao Yuanliang so much, they suddenly understood, it turned out that Gao Yuanliang was still a big difference......

Zhang Zhang had already read the detailed battle report presented by Gao Yuanliang before, and the walls of the Haizhou Acropolis were more than ten feet high, although they were not as high as Ningyuan and Jinzhou, which were twelve feet high, but they were also very high. In addition, there are many artillery pieces on the city wall, and although the artillery of the Tuanshan Army is more than them, it is not of great use.

The reason is naturally distance, if you want to concentrate a large number of artillery to attack the city wall at close range, then the place of assembly is also the target of the enemy's artillery. The current artillery corps of the Tuanshan Army is very sweet, and the losses of any branch of the army are acceptable, but the artillery losses alone are difficult to replenish.

Behind every piece of artillery is a combat group, and the quality of the artillery is the highest requirement of all arms of the regimental mountain army -- for example, the most core gunners have basically been trained for more than half a year and have been fired with live ammunition countless times!

Gao Yuanliang was reluctant to use artillery to fill in human lives, so he had to use more infantry to fill it, and the siege war was so helpless!

Zhang Li's brows also furrowed deeply, in fact, Gao Yuanliang's behavior like this was also related to the careful use of artillery that he had explained before.

Because, in addition to rifled guns and mini rounds, there is also an important weapon improvement that is also being carried out, that is, artillery.

Cannons are well-deserved to be called the "king of war", for example, in the current siege warfare, rifled guns and mini bullets are useful? There must be, but not decisively.

As long as you are within range of the enemy's artillery, whether you are a rifled gunner or an arquebusier, it is the same as being smashed into a pulp.

Of course, this is talking about attacking fortified fortresses, and the natural rifled guns in the field with Mini bullets can cure all kinds of disobedience...... (To be continued.) )
