Now that North Korea has angered the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army naturally has no need to spare the North Korean officers and soldiers, a Ming soldier walked over without hesitation, pulled the bolt and fired a shot at the North Korean soldier on the ground.

Syllable!

The Korean soldier immediately fell to the ground, blood and dust mixed into a mush.

The other Ming troops still did not hesitate to kill these Korean soldiers, and the gurgling blood gathered into a stream and flowed to the low-lying area.

At that time, more and more Ming troops climbed up, and more and more Korean officers and soldiers were killed.

Of course, there were also Korean officers and soldiers who were still conscious, and after the Ming army broke through the wall, they began to run at a rapid pace, completely losing any will to fight, and even throwing firearms in their hands everywhere.

However, the Ming army did not pursue these Korean officers and soldiers, but drove to the city of Uiju after the assembly.

Tearing through the wall of Euiju City is equivalent to breaking the strongest defense line of Euiju City.

Ten howitzers of twenty-six pounds were pushed up.

Now the Ming Army has completely fought against any national army in the world today, and it is not a concept.

In fantasy parlance, it's not a realm.

The Ming Army has now begun to habitually replace the tactics of crowds with intensive firepower, although the firepower of the Ming Dynasty has not yet caught up with the era of World War I in the original history.

But at least the siege has completely eliminated the tactics of cloud ladders combined with firearms to attack the city, and even destroy your city defenses from twenty miles away, and then destroy your heavy army group with dense firepower, and use cavalry to quickly pursue and increase casualties.

This tactic, unless the opponent has an ironclad chariot or tank to force a breakthrough, or has the same advanced weapons as the Ming to rely on the trenches to fight a tug-of-war with the Ming.

But it is clear that North Korea does not have this strength, and other countries do not have this strength.

But North Korea didn't have this awareness, and the North Korean general Li Ze at this time still confidently said to his subordinates:

"Although the Ming Empire is strong, it is only a foreign power, recently, they are fighting in the north and south, but they are afraid that they will not be able to swallow our Korea, and their Emperor Taizu once said that we are their country that will never be conquered;

If Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty wants to eat us, their domestic ministers will definitely not be willing, because this is against the ancestral system, and the Han people have always wanted to save face and not benefit, their cavalry is not afraid of disturbing our rear, as long as they are blocked under our strong city walls, when his cavalry runs out of ammunition and food, they will naturally retreat, and their siege troops will also go back;

When the time comes, we can suddenly attack its rear road, and we will definitely let it flee in defeat, and it will not be too late to recapture Tielingwei and Kangzhouwei. ”

"What the general said is that the Han people have always been the best to bully, and when the time comes, as long as we flatter him again, the foolish Emperor Ming and his courtiers will no longer do anything to conquer our Korea, and even in order to meet our requirements, they will pretend to be generous and reward us with Tielingwei and Kangzhouwei."

"That is, is it possible that Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty still wants to be the second Emperor Yang of Sui, if he really wants to be so happy, I am afraid that it will be even more stupid, and then there will inevitably be a thirty-six anti-king in his country, seventy-two roads of smoke and dust, if he is in chaos at that time, we will have more opportunities."

"No, no, now the Ming Dynasty is not what it used to be, he Zhu Youzhen is not Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty are not the officials of the Sui Dynasty, what this official can expect is that as long as they suffer losses from us, they will no longer fight our ideas, and in order for us to continue to be their vassals and maintain a peaceful state, they will also give us Tielingwei and Kangzhou Wei, which is nothing to them, and if they don't give it, our frequent harassment will make them suffer greater losses, and he Daming will not be unable to understand this account."

Li Ze said with a smile and then said: "This Da Ming, it is a fat pig that can eat a mouthful of meat at will, as long as you don't want to ask for his life, he can even take the initiative to let you take a bite, saving you from annoying him." ”

"Hahahaha, what the general said is very true, but recently the Ming army thought that they had won a few battles and began to think that they were the same as the Sui army back then, and now they are waiting for them to suffer more losses under our city fortifications, kill him tens of thousands, and when the time comes, when the winter comes, he will starve to death and freeze to death tens of thousands, it is exciting to think about it!"

As soon as a North Korean general said this, North Korean General Li Ze also laughed: "This official wants to go to the area around the wall to see the situation of those Ming army corpses all over the field." ”

"We're with the general!"

"Let's go!"

……

On the side of the Ming army.

Ten infantry field howitzers began to slowly raise the muzzle of his large-caliber guns.

Generally speaking, the firing angle of the howitzer is very large, and the ballistic arc of the upward fire is very large, which can make the firing range very long, even in the early part of the original history, it can reach more than ten kilometers, and today's infantry field howitzers of the Ming Dynasty are almost this range.

This type of artillery is large and has a long range, which is very effective for destroying ground targets.

As a series of metal elements were extracted and utilized according to the properties of the sacred elements, alloying materials began to make further progress, and this howitzer came into being.

Now, when a twenty-six-pound cannonball is thrown, its powerful recoil makes the earth tremble.

The range of people's vision is within ten miles, and the so-called ten-mile long pavilion is roughly derived from this.

And Twenty Miles naturally had to be observed with the help of military binoculars.

Mirror-making technology is also an important part of the imperial industry, fortunately, as early as the seventeenth and eighteenth years of Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty had the imperial lord Wei Guogong Xu family and Jinyiwei commander Li Ruolian family to focus on mirror-making and glass manufacturing technology, so that now the Ming Dynasty manufacturing this kind of telescope is not a problem.

After all, this is the era when Galileo was able to build an astronomical telescope twenty years ago, and it is not difficult to make a telescope.

One of the biggest advantages of the Ming Dynasty's rifled guns and smoothbore guns was his high shooting accuracy, thanks to the development of imperial arithmetic.

The knowledge of trigonometric functions and parabola established by the Pythagorean theorem has made the imperial artillery no longer illiterate but a high-achieving student whose knowledge can be as good as a college student, or even higher than these high-achieving students, and now one-third of the howitzer artillery people wear glasses.

This is related to the fact that electricity has not yet developed, the lighting conditions cannot keep up, and many artillerymen can only light candles at night.

Ten howitzers flew into the sky the moment the smoke erupted from the muzzle of the guns and the earth trembled.

In a moment, through the observer's military telescope, I saw that the towers on the entire city of Uiju collapsed in an instant, the city gates also collapsed directly, and the surrounding city walls also slid to the ground like dominoes.

The speed of light was much faster than the speed of sound, so that after a while, the artillerymen heard a rumbling sound, like dry thunder on the horizon, but it was very pleasant.
