Chapter 385: Battlefield Formation
A few people stood up, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Highness has a great kindness to us, and we should not have left on the occasion of this decisive battle." But the wife I was waiting for was taken captive by the Northern Dynasty, so please let your Highness open the net and let me wait. ”
"Okay," Mo Dengyong said, "I will never break my word, Ying'er." ”
"The child is here." Mo Dengying said.
"Deliver it to you on my behalf." Mo Dengyong said.
"Yes." Mo Dengying said. He stretched out his hand, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Please." ”
These people who were going to leave all kowtowed to Mo Dengyong, and then got up and followed Mo Dengying away.
Mo Dengying and his party walked out of the camp not far away, and suddenly a group of people came out of nowhere and surrounded these people.
They were taken aback and said, "Shizi, what are you trying to do?" ”
"What for?" Mo Dengying sneered and said, "Don't you know? Then he waved his hand and said, "Kill." ”
The crumbling bowstring rattled, almost breathing, and shot these people into a hornet's nest. Mo Dengying didn't look at it, and said, "Deal with this place." ”
Then he went back to report to Mo Dengyong.
But after a few breaths, all of the land disappeared without a trace, except for some dark red blood.
"Father, the children have already sent them to Thang Long City." Morden said without changing his face.
Mo Dengyong smiled faintly and said, "Okay, Ying'er, I ordered you to be the commander of the front army and take charge of the forward." You have to do it well. ”
Mo Dengying was overjoyed, he thought that because of the Shenglong incident, he would be suppressed by his father for a long time, but he never expected that almost immediately let him take charge of the most important striker, so that he couldn't help but be grateful, and felt that his father still trusted me very much.
Does Mordenyong trust him? Not at the time.
Mo Dengying thought that the matter of his ascension to the dragon would pass so easily, but he thought it was too simple. If Mo Dengyong was given a choice, he would definitely not let Mo Dengying pass so easily.
But Mordenyong had no choice.
Zhu Houhuang had already spread the news that he was holding the families of the generals in the Mozambican army hostage. It has spread throughout the entire Mo army, and those who can follow Mo Dengyong to move to Thang Long in the future, except for a few, are all important ministers trusted by Mo Dengyong. It is the superstructure of the 100,000 soldiers of the Mozambican army.
Something like this happened, how could Mo Dengyong trust them.
The general surnamed Lin, who had just been executed by Mo Dengyong, did not betray Mo Dengyong, but because of Lin's reputation, Mo Dengyong really couldn't trust him, so he was simply executed.
This General Lin is a well-known filial son, and his mother is filial. Mo Dengyong thought that he was definitely not as important as his mother in the eyes of General Lin, and he was in charge of the elite forward battalion of the whole army. Once there was a change, it was difficult for Mo Dengyong to sleep, so he took the opportunity to attack, killed him, and put Mo Dengying in charge of the position.
The reason why Mo Dengying is made responsible is because Mo Dengyong is not selected.
The Striker Commander, as one of several figures in the upper echelons of the 100,000-strong army pyramid, his candidacy is not so easy. At least not too shallow in terms of qualifications.
But most of these generals in the upper echelons of the army were captured, so how could Mo Dengyong trust.
Although he took this opportunity to clean up these generals, promoted some excellent generals who were suppressed in the lower ranks, and personally took charge of a lot of work.
If time is given, Mo Dengyong is confident that he will remove all the influence of these people.
After all, among the Mo army, there has always been only one authority, and that is Mo Dengyong himself. But for a while, I couldn't find someone who could take on heavy responsibilities and had enough qualifications.
Mo Dengyong could only push Mo Dengying out, let Mo Dengying use his influence to suppress the army, and then select some capable lieutenants for him.
Just when Mo Dengyong and Mo Dengying, father and son, father and son, were filial piety, a general in the queue suddenly snorted violently. The eyes he looked at Mo Dengying and Mo Dengyong changed instantly.
This general has a talent, that is, his nose is particularly effective, which is also one of the reasons why this general was able to survive in his scout career when he was young.
How many years have been useless, he has clearly felt the smell of blood from Mo Dengying's body. And Mo Dengying didn't when he just went out.
What Mordenying went out and did is self-evident.
Mo Dengyong seemed to feel that someone was watching him, he turned his head, this person immediately lowered his head, his eyes instantly turned red, and one of the people who did not go out was his best friend. After the two of their families were taken captive, they secretly discussed, one went over, the other stayed, and the past tried to find a way to protect the two families, and those who stayed should repay the kindness of the Mo family.
It's just that I never thought that I would make a decision just now.
He also knew that with Mo Dengyong's attitude towards these people, even after the big victory over the Ming army in the future, they would definitely stand aside, because Mo Dengyong already had a knot.
"General Mo, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust." For the sake of his family, for his own future, and in order to avenge his good brother, this person made a decision in an instant.
Mo Dengyong handled the affairs of the army well and was suppressed by Mo Dengyong with an iron fist. The 100,000-strong army was calm and calm, and nothing went wrong.
Then Zhu Houhuang began to send troops to line up.
100,000 troops, divided into two ways, there are 70,000 people all the way, lined up outside the southern city, and the Northern Dynasty army duel, the other army, starting from the city, directly attacked Thang Long City, even outside the south city gate, for a time can not tell the winner, as long as you can take Thang Long City, it is also great news for Mo Dengyong.
The two sides are in Thang Long City, each with half a city, and the troops and horses of each other are mobilized, and they don't want to hide it from each other to what extent. However, in comparison, although the scope controlled by Mo Dengyong is small, it is an imperial city, and Mo Dengyong's transfer is more difficult to check. However, half of the city where Zhu Houhuang is located, there are many people, and the news cannot be kept secret at all.
Mo Dengyong personally confronted the Ming army outside the southern city. And send Mo Dengying out to deal with the motley army in the city.
Before the war, Zhu Houhuang opened the city gate and let the people in the city leave. But at this moment the gates were suddenly closed, because the time had come. Zhu Houhuang's department set off from the east gate, detoured to the south city gate, and after a while, the formation was rehearsed.
But the Yongjun army was divided into two large phalanxes, which were listed in the center. The Cham soldiers were divided into two wings. Strengthen the formation. More than 100 Franc cannons were mounted on the gun truck, followed by a carriage and several gun crews, so that the Franc cannons could maneuver with the battle formation.
This is Zhu Houhuang's killer feature.
In order to make up enough horses and carriages to transport ammunition, Zhu Houhuang can be regarded as having suffered enough, Zhu Houhuang himself is also on foot, and his mounts have gone to pull cannons.
Along with Zhu Houhuang are the guards around Zhu Houhuang. There are also a lot of horses guarded by Zhu Houhuang. Now all but a few heralds are on foot.
The carriage is even more difficult to find, if Zhu Houhuang hadn't robbed Shenglong City, he wouldn't have enough of these carriages at all, so that Zhu Houhuang made a hard note in his heart, and there is still a long way to go for the establishment of artillery.
More than 10,000 Yongjun are all armored, except for a row of sword and shield hands in the front array, the rest are pikemen, at a glance, there are many spears, very spectacular. Each of the pikemen took the bow and arrow, although it was not accurate. But the pikemen have a good archer in each column, and they just need to shoot arrows from their angles. And the sword and shield hand carried several round objects on his body, as if a ball was loaded with a handle, which was called a grenade. This thing cannot be compared with the hand-grenade of later generations, so it can only be used by sword and shield hands, these sword and shield hands, holding large shields, after throwing hand-grenades, may hide their bodies behind the big shields to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
The smallest class of troops in the Yong army is the musketeers. There are only more than 100 people around Zhu Houhuang, and in the past two years, the muskets built by Zhu Houhuang in Beijing have been damaged one after another. So Zhu Houhuang was also helpless.
In terms of formation, the pikemen's formation was relatively sparse, and there were passages left in each phalanx.
