Chapter 208: Saturation Defense
"It's not a big problem." Zhu Cijiong said unexpectedly.
"Huh, it's not a big problem?" Chongzhen looked at Zhu Cijiong with some surprise.
Zheng Sen, Xia Yunyi, and Wang Fuzi and other scholars also cast suspicious glances at Zhu Cijiong.
"It's really not a big deal." Zhu Cijiong smiled and said, "You can calculate the time and understand." ”
"Calculate time?" As soon as Zhu Cijiong said, Zheng Sen reacted, wrenched his fingers and said, "It took Jiannu nearly four hours to clean the outermost layer of slope protection, most of the time. ”
"The next step is to use the Hongyi cannon to directly bombard the parapet wall of the platform."
"After the improvement, the top width of the parapet wall in front of the platform has reached six feet, and it has an inclination angle, which can greatly remove the impact of the cannonballs, plus the rammed earth of the parapet wall is made of glutinous rice juice and glutinous straw, which is extremely strong, and there is wood reinforcement in the middle of the wall, in view of this, it will take at least a day to blast open."
"But even if the front parapet wall is damaged, it doesn't mean that the platform will be lost immediately."
"With the remaining parapets and facilities, each platform can hold out for at least two days, and with the support of the surrounding platforms for night counterattacks, each platform will definitely change hands repeatedly."
"In other words, if Jiannu wants to completely penetrate a heavy platform, it will take at least five days or more!"
"This is still the first stage, and the more you go to the back, the more difficult it will be, and the longer it will take you."
Speaking of this, Zheng Sen concluded: "This means that within three months, Jiannu should not want to break through the twelve-fold platform and advance to the city of Xuzhou, and at that time, the Yellow River should almost be thawed, right?"
"So, the only problem is Yunlong Mountain." Chongzhen Road.
"Because Yunlong Mountain runs longitudinally through the first platform to the tenth platform."
After speaking, he touched Zhu Cijiong's little head again, and this kid's calculation ability has greatly improved.
And if you want to be a good military commander, excellent computing ability is a necessary quality.
Whenever there is a big war, we must calculate the troops, provisions, equipment, training, individual combat effectiveness, terrain and climate of both sides to the extreme, so that we can have a good idea of it.
To put it bluntly, it's like playing chess.
The stronger the player's computing power, the greater the chance of winning.
The most numeracy player is said to be able to calculate the next fifty moves.
At this time, if the computing power of the opposite chess player is only forty or even thirty moves, then it can basically be crushed, and the opposite side does not even have the slightest chance.
"Yes, in the end, we still have to fight it out in Yunlong Mountain."
Zheng Sen nodded and said, "Holy Lord, the ministers can't wait to see Jiannu come and send him to death." ”
"Hey, don't be so arrogant." Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "In all battles, it is right to strengthen the belief that you will win, but at the same time, you must also estimate the difficulties as high as possible." ”
"Give the battle of Yunlong Mountain in front of you again,"
"That's what we need to think about when we estimate the situation."
"What if fishing nets, pepper powder and flour, boiling water and gold juice are exhausted, but they still can't stop the serfs?"
Speaking of this, Chongzhen continued: "Today I will teach you a new concept: saturation defense!" ”
[Note: After the reader's reaction, the details of chapter 204 have been slightly modified]
"Saturation defense?" Zheng Sen, Xia Yunyi and other scholars moved, and Feng Dunhou, who was a little older, directly took out the brush he was carrying, and took out a small notebook, ready to record at any time.
"Hey, I don't need to remember this, it's just a few words." Chongzhen waved his hand.
"The so-called saturation defense means that the strength of the defense far exceeds the intensity of the enemy's attack."
"Even if you are confident that the defenses you have deployed are sufficient to withstand the enemy's attack, you still need to add more defenses on top of that."
"For example, the Yunlong Mountain defense line under our feet."
"With boiling water, fishing nets, and other means of defense, do you think it's enough?"
Speaking of this, Chongzhen said: "But even if these defensive means are enough, we still have to find ways to add more means to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”
Zheng Sen frowned and said, "But the question is, can there be more means of defense?" ”
Chongzhen said solemnly: "Whether there is or not, in short, you have to think hard, what if you really think of it?" So isn't there a greater chance of holding the defense line of Yunlong Mountain? ”
"Holy one, maybe there really is." Li Xiangjun said.
"Huh?" Huang Zongxi, Gu Yanwu, Zhang Huangyan and other scholars looked at Li Xiangjun in astonishment.
The heart said how did this little lady's brain grow? It's difficult for others to just think of a way, but she's good, she just thought of several ways yesterday, and today she actually has it?
Chongzhen also smiled and asked, "Hehe, what good way did Li Qing think of?" ”
"It's not a good idea, it's just some shady methods." Li Xiangjun was a little embarrassed, "There are still colleagues in the Holy Lord, who are noble and noble, and they rarely come into contact with these ninth-rate things, so they can't think of it, but the minister grew up in the Goolan tile shop since he was a child, and he has had a lot of contact with all kinds of low-ninth-rate businesses, so he only knows this." ”
"Li Qing is too modest." Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "You haven't said anything yet?" ”
Only then did Li Xiangjun say: "After seeing the pepper powder ground by Gonggong Gao, the minister suddenly remembered that there is another thing that can not only be obtained in large quantities, but also as domineering as pepper powder, and that is lime!" ”
"Lime?!" Chongzhen was stunned when he heard this, how could he forget this?
Sprinkling lime at people is indeed a low-rate method, but this thing is indeed overbearing.
At that moment, Chongzhen instructed Gao Qiqian to say: "Gao companion, you will take someone to collect lime!" ”
"The old slave commands!" Gao Qiqian made a long gesture, and then turned around and went down the mountain happily, a good phenomenon, the saint sent an errand for him to do, this is a precursor to reuse him.
……
The progress that followed was similar to what Zheng Sen calculated.
To break through the first heavy platform, it took five days to build a slave.
It took nine days to break through the second platform!
Because there were many tug-of-wars in the middle, the Ming army repeatedly took advantage of the night to launch counterattacks.
However, there was a gap in strength between the Ming army and Jiannu after all, so they could only delay and not be able to thwart.
On the twenty-second day of February of the eighteenth year of Chongzhen, it took nearly half a month for Jiannu to finally break through the two platforms in a row, and cleared a gap with a width of more than 800 steps directly south of the Xuzhou defense line.
More than a dozen platforms in this gap were completely destroyed.
Not only that, but Jiannu Baoyi also dug a longitudinal trench more than three zhang deep in the middle of the gap, and the Jiannu army walked through this trench, which could effectively avoid the attack of tiger squatting artillery on both sides.
At this point, Yunlong Mountain was completely exposed to Jiannu's soldiers.
"Master." He Luohui knelt on the ground and said excitedly.
"Those dog minions have dug the trench to the foot of Yunlong Mountain!"
"Got through? That's great! Duoduo, who was drinking in the big tent, immediately pushed the lamp and got up, and shouted, "Beat the drum and gather the troops, this king must take Yunlong Mountain today!" ”
……
At the same time, Chongzhen took Zhu Cijiong, Li Xiangjun and a group of scholars to stand solemnly on the No. 1 platform on the top of the ninth peak, and heard the sound of drums from the Jiannu tent from a distance.
"Here we go." Chongzhen said, "The next thing is the real decisive battle." ”
"Here we go." Zhu Cijiong, Li Xiangjun and the scholars also nodded silently.
Although I have made sufficient preparations, and am very sure that this battle will be won,
But when the big war really comes, you will inevitably feel nervous.
……
Chongzhen will feel nervous, and Jin Shenghuan, who is on the platform directly in front of the foot of the mountain, will be even more nervous.
Because the last time Jiannu attacked, he had already taken the lead in escaping once, and if he escaped again this time, it would be absolutely impossible for the saint to let him go again, not to mention that the saint was guarding the platform on the top of the mountain at this time and watching them.
"Quick, add some more firewood, don't let the fire on each stove go out!"
"What are you doing, thief? Don't you see that the gold juice in the pot is almost dry? Add some more! ”
"Ma Laosan, a few of you hide in the bunker, don't show your head easily, I let you come out, you come out, I let you throw out the fishing net, you can throw it, remember?"
"Remember!" Dozens of fishnet warriors responded with a bang.
"It's all there, check the supplies and equipment on your body again."
Jin Shenghuan yelled while patrolling back and forth on the platform: "Let's see if the pepper bread and lime bags are damaged?" If there is a breakage, replace it quickly, and if you sprinkle pepper noodles and lime on your own heads, don't blame General Ben for being polite, have you heard it? Check, check again! ”
With Jin Shenghuan's continuous roar,
The Ming army on the platform instantly became nervous.
The air was already filled with the smell of killing.
But as soon as he saw Xu Yingwei in a blink of an eye, Jin Shenghuan's expression softened.
"Xu Xiucai, why are you here?" For Xu Yingwei, Jin Shenghuan only admires.
A scholar like Xu Yingwei not only has knowledge, but also courage and ability, and his future achievements are limitless, so it is only beneficial to have a good relationship with Xu Yingwei.
Xu Yingwei didn't look down on Jin Shenghuan at all, and said, "I came to support you by order." ”
"That's great." Jin Shenghuan was overjoyed when he heard this, "How many scholars has the saint raised?" ”
Xu Yingwei smiled and said, "I'm the only one." ”
"Gah?" Jin Shenghuan's face fell.
"I'm the only one laughing with you."
Xu Yingwei laughed, and when he turned back, a team of soldiers had already entered the platform.
I saw that there were more than 100 scholars who entered the platform, and the bird guns in their hands were obviously longer.
Jin Shenghuan recognized it at a glance, these more than 100 scholars were holding the Lumi gun, and the Lumi gun was modeled as the firearm of the Turkish Lumi country, which had a longer range and stronger penetrating power than the bird's beak gun.
Xu Yingwei said: "We have tried, but Lu Mi Gong still can't continuously penetrate the triple armor stomach of chain mail, cotton armor and iron armor, but it is not a problem to penetrate cotton armor or iron armor and chain mail alone, so unless Jiannu uses the so-called white armor soldiers again, these more than 100 Lu Mi guns are enough for them to consume, and other means are not in a hurry." ”
