Chapter 201: The True Power of the Ming Dynasty Overseas
The wood and iron sheet in the front row alone weigh more than 100 catties, plus the shelves in the back and the sand filled, the weight is close to five or six hundred catties.
Such a heavy shield cart inevitably requires many soldiers to move, so it is naturally inflexible.
However, too many soldiers were needed to propel these heavy tanks.
Ballublack Timur was afraid that his men would not be able to defeat Wang Baobao, and although the structure of these shield carts was strong, after withstanding the artillery bombardment, there would inevitably be many casualties.
Those Heavenly Sect soldiers who spent a lot of money to hire were naturally unwilling to be these cannon fodder.
The bald black Timur then ordered the arrest of the strong men in the city of Huozhou, and used them to push these heavy shield carts.
Although in the territory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the bald black Timur had previously ordered the people to convert to the Heavenly Sect.
However, there were still many Mongols who continued their Buddhism or immortal beliefs, and they became the targets of the bald black Timur Lajandin to die.
As for the identity of the Mongols, it did not work at all in the eyes of Timur the Bald.
"Whoever does not believe in the true God is not worthy of being my people!"
"My people, only the people of Allah!"
These words of the bald black Timur not only made the Mongols in Huozhou City miserable, but also made his last prestige lose everything!
Not only the Mongols, but all the non-believers, realized the danger of their future situation!
Heavenly Sect is not easy to get along with!
However, today's bald black Timur is not aware of this problem.
He is now in a hurry to repel Wang Baobao's army besieging Huozhou City!
If Wang Baobao is not defeated under the city of Huozhou, Timur the Bald Black will never have a chance again.
Once Wang Baobao is allowed to integrate the seized territory, the bald black Timur will only have a dead end.
"God is above!"
"Today, we will win!"
The bald black Timur was once again stirring up morale under the city of Huozhou.
Wang Baobao on the opposite side had also seen those new weapons launched by the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
"Seems to be a shield car?" Taphina Timur stretched his neck and said.
Wang Baobao also thinks so, but he is not very worried.
Because, these artillery pieces made by the Ming army are very powerful, and they cannot be blocked by some wooden shields.
"Drumming!"
"Attack!"
"Prepare to fire!"
Wang Baobao gave the order without hesitation, he also wanted to fight quickly, if it dragged on for too long, not only would it be more and more difficult to restrain the people of the Warat Division, but even the Ming army of Lanzhou might sneak attack his rear Xihai.
With Wang Baobao's order, the three artillery pieces of the Meng Yuan army opened fire in turn.
Bang!
Rumble! Bang!
After three cannon shots, the army of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was in a panic.
However, the shield cart in the front row blocked all the shells, and although there were many dead and wounded among the strong men pushing the shield cart, the soldiers of the Heavenly Sect were not harmed.
"God is great!"
"Pious!"
"God is above!"
The Heavenly Sect disciples, who were finally relieved, immediately shouted in various colored voices.
As for the poor strong men who were killed and wounded by artillery, no matter how fiercely they wailed, they would not have a trace of mercy for the mercenaries of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Pagans are almost all inconsiderate.
These unsightly shield carts actually blocked three artillery pieces, which couldn't help but surprise and delight Wang Baobao.
What is surprising is that the Eastern Chagatai Khanate actually relied on these seemingly rudimentary shield vehicles to really curb the artillery offensive.
Happily, it seems that he can also learn this method to deal with the Ming army!
"Fight again!"
However, for now, it is still necessary to solve the defense of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate first.
Wang Baobao immediately urged his artillery to continue the attack.
Seeing that his shield cart was really useful, Timur immediately struck while the iron was hot and ordered a counterattack against Wang Baobao.
The Eastern Chagatai Khanate took advantage of its numerical superiority, coupled with the steady advance of the shield chariots, and it turned out to be quite orderly.
However, how could this little skill of the bald black Timur be able to stop Wang Baobao's attack.
After several tugging, Wang Baobao finally discovered the weakness of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Then, a tsunami-like offensive immediately defeated the army of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
The bald black Timur originally wanted to try to reorganize the army, but a whistling cannonball suddenly shattered the shield cart covering in front of him, and the broken wooden spikes pierced the throat of the bald black Timur like a dagger!
Blood gushed out!
The last khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the guardian of the prophet, and the emir of the Heavenly Sect, the Bald Black Timur, died in the chaos of the army!
The collapsed army of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate fled around the battlefield like headless flies.
Wang Baobao immediately divided his troops into two ways.
One route is led by the Warat general Haohai, who is responsible for chasing down these defeated Chagatai Khanate mercenaries, and leaving no prisoners for all the mercenaries of the Heavenly Sect!
The other way, led by Wang Baobao himself, to capture Huozhou City, which has no military heart!
Capturing a city is a very good task, not only can you loot a lot of treasure, but there is not much danger.
Everyone in Warat knew that Wang Baobao obviously gave them no chance to remember Huozhou City.
Haohai and the others were no longer dissatisfied in their hearts, and they did not dare to disobey Wang Baobao's military orders.
In just three months, Wang Baobao successively killed the 'Pseudo Great Khan' Deli Buhua, as well as the Chagatai Khan Bald Black Timur.
With such a strong ability, the Warat people can only obediently obey orders.
The fierce Warat people immediately vented all their anger on the Heavenly Sect mercenaries who were being pursued.
With the rise of the Warat killing, in addition to the Celestial Sect mercenaries, the villages where the Celestial Cultists gathered along the way were also slaughtered and looted by the Warats.
In the entire large area west of Huozhou City, almost a thick black smoke rose!
....
The forces of the Celestial Sect of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate were almost swept away after the massacre of the Warats.
The rest of the Mongols and the people of all ethnic groups immediately expressed their deference to Wang Baobao.
And Wang Baobao also took the opportunity to incorporate these Mongol descendants of Chagatai and form a huge army.
The size of this legion even exceeded that of the regular Mengyuan Praetorian Guard.
Of course, their equipment is relatively poor, and their weapons are extremely backward, but they are better than the number of people!
At this time, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate had been completely conquered, and the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was destroyed, which greatly increased Wang Baobao's power.
Wang Baobao directly announced the establishment of the Great Yuan Ulus in the territory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate!
Genghis Khan founded the Great Mongol Ulus, and Kublai Khan established the Great Yuan.
Now, Wang Baobao has come to a merger and combination, and the capital of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, Ali Mali, has become the capital of the 'Great Yuan Urus'!
At this point, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate was destroyed!
Wang Baobao also became a powerful leader in the hearts of all Mongols!
Such a result made the remaining Heavenly Sect nobles and others in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate unable to believe that all this was true.
However, their resistance was futile, and their resistance only angered Wang Baobao.
After the news of the complete destruction of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate by Wang Baobao was transmitted to the Western Chagatai, the local Heavenly Sects were all saddened, and they all hated Wang Baobao!
And under the angry gaze of these Heavenly Fang Sect disciples, Wang Baobao took the cavalry under his command and began to sweep.
They mainly looted gold, silver, jewelry, and grain, followed by livestock, women and children.
Wang Baobao immediately became not short of money or food.
In the treasury of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, there were piles of gold, silver, and jewelry.
These gold, silver, and jewels are worth a fortune, enough to feed thousands of cavalry, and even more!
However, these things did not make Wang Baobao happy.
He quickly realized the problem: "We have money and food, but we lack artillery!" Only three guns are completely insufficient! ”
This sentence silenced the newly rich generals.
Oh, yes!
Artillery is now a key weapon for Dayuan.
Wang Baobao had thought about organizing a group of craftsmen to study artillery technology, but because of the lack of level, it has not been implemented.
Now it seems that this matter must be resolved.
In Wang Baobao's head, a plan soon appeared.
He wants to build an artillery army that belongs to Dayuan!
In the Indian Ocean, the fleet with the red flag of the Ming Dynasty has finally arrived in Persia!
Under the introduction of the Persian merchant Malu Ali, the Persian destination of the Ming fleet was chosen in Bayer Black City!
This is a small city, at most the size of a county town in Daming.
The Ming fleet led by Tang He had just arrived at Bayer Black Harbor in the Persian Gulf, and was immediately warmly welcomed by the local Persian lord Abbas, and a large number of Bayer Black City people came to the port, wanting to see the rich and powerful Ming Empire in the East!
In Bayerhei, Persia, people only know that the Ming Empire is very powerful, but they have not heard of how powerful it is, and most people have never seen the real Ming Sailor, and now it is easy to see a natural excitement.
At this time, Tang He, who was wearing a red official uniform and a black gauze hat, stood on the side of the boat and waved to the crowd around him, looking very kind.
"Haha, brothers, it seems that our Daming people are quite enthusiastic?" The lieutenant on the side laughed and teased.
"Hehe, who called the prestige of our Ming Empire high, these Persians must want to get cheap."
The adjutant general's words caused a burst of laughter from the crowd.
"Okay, don't laugh, hurry up and prepare for landing, dock the ship and rest for a while, and then hurry up and prepare to rest!"
Tang He said with a serious face, obviously he used this attitude to maintain his image as a Ming official.
With Tang He's order, more than a dozen warships slowly moored to the edge of the dock, waiting for the soldiers to land.
Just as everyone had landed, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and then a young man on a white horse and wearing gorgeous armor galloped to the dock.
This man was none other than Abbas, the lord of the Black City of Persian Bayer.
Although he is a lord of one side, he still behaves respectfully in the face of the huge Ming fleet.
"Haha, welcome to the honorable envoys of the Ming Dynasty to visit us Bayerhei!"
Abbas led the man to Tang He and said to him with a smile.
And Tang He replied with a slight bow:
"Lord Abbas is gracious!"
At this time, Tang and the group of naval non-commissioned officers around him all showed vigilant looks, for fear that Abbas would make some moves.
After all, there were too many Persians in this port.
It can almost be said that it is a fall of the city!
And Abbas also seemed to sense the hostile gaze of the Ming naval soldiers, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "Please rest assured, the contemptible people have absolutely no other intentions, but I heard that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty sent envoys to come, so the people can't help but want to pay their respects, and they don't have any other meaning." ”
Persia has been a rich area in the Western Regions since ancient times, and since the Arab Empire conquered Persia, it was because of the local prosperous economy that the Arab Empire quickly entered the strongest time.
However, it is precisely because of the wealth of the Persian region that this land has become a gladiatorial arena for large and small conquerors to compete back and forth.
More than a decade ago, the Mongol Khanate of Yin, which had once ruled Persia, collapsed, and Persia was plunged into a chaotic warlord war.
Bayer's Black City is militarily weak, and the two major forces of Mozafari in the north and Sabankara in the west are competing strongly, and they are all eyeing the rich and weak Bayer Black City.
The weak Bayer Black City has to pay two protection fees every year in order to survive in the gap between the two big forces.
However, not long ago, Mozafari had been defeated in a battle with Sabankara, and the victorious Sabankara lord Ayubuz immediately had the intention of annexing the city of Bair.
Ayubuz first declared himself protector of the city of Bayer, and then ordered Abbas, the lord of Bayern's city, to go to the castle of Ayubuz to swear allegiance.
After Abbas's tactful refusal, Ayubuz was furious, hearing that he had prepared troops and horses in his territory and could attack the city of Bairblack at any time.
As an official and translator of the Ming Army, Maluali's hometown is Baier Heicheng, and his family industry is also based in Baier Heicheng.
If the Ayyubuz army were to occupy the city of Bayerhei, many industries would inevitably be destroyed by war.
The lord of Sabankara, Ayubuz, had a reputation for being cruel and greedy, and even if the city of Bair's Black City had not been attacked, he would have had his blood sucked in the subsequent reign.
Therefore, Marouali also passed on the news to Abbas, asking him to be respectful to the Ming soldiers and envoys, and only in this way could they possibly impress the powerful Ming army and let them help defeat the Black City through this difficulty.
Therefore, Abbas was responsive to the visiting Ming fleet, and in the following days, whether it was necessary watery food and fresh vegetables and meat, Abbas selected all the supplies in the black city of Baier and supplied them to the Ming fleet.
Abbas's heart, Tang and nature felt it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Marouali took Abbas with him a very earnest request to Tonghe.
"As the lord of the Black City of Baier, I am willing to swear allegiance to the Ming Emperor thousands of miles away, and I will always be the loyal guardian of the Ming Dynasty in Persia, all the Ming merchants and troops who have arrived in the Black City of Baier, and the soy milk is the benefactor and eternal friend of my Abbas family!"
Abbas, the lord of the Black City of Baier, expressed to Tang He his desire to let the Ming army help him defend the city, and made a promise to be loyal to the Ming forever.
But to be honest, in Abbas's mind, the reason why he came to seek Tang He, the commander of the Ming army, was actually more because of Maruari's persuasion.
After several slave trades with the Ming Dynasty, the Marouali family has gained great wealth and prestige, and has become a big businessman that Abbas attaches great importance to in the black city of Baier, and what Marouali said naturally makes Abbas pay attention to it.
However, although Marou Ali's army was only more than 10,000 people, it was worth 100,000 Persian troops, which made Abbas very sure that Marou Ali was bragging.
