"Your Highness, the reinforcements from the imperial court are here!"

"Good!"

King Ning was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" ”

"Set up camp outside the city."

King Ning was even happier in his heart, and camped outside the city, indicating that there were many people coming.

Or the emperor is interesting enough, he really helps when he encounters something!

"How many people came?"

"Probably...... More than a hundred? ”

"What?"

King Ning thought he had misheard, and asked again, "How many people did you say?" ”

"More than 100 ......"

"Impossible!"

King Ning said angrily: "The court is so aggressive, so you will transfer a hundred people? Are these 100 people in the front? ”

"Back to Your Highness, the little one asked, and the court sent these people, and there are no more."

Now, I can't fix King Ning.

He once thought that the court would not care about his request for help, after all, Wu Sizang had already been sealed to himself, if the court sent troops to recruit again, who would be the one to fight down?

However, if you don't send people, forget it, and now there are only a hundred people, so what's going on?

It can't be purely disgusting, right?

The more King Ning thought about it, the more angry he became, his eldest nephew was simply too deceitful!

"Where is Lord Yu now?"

"Back to Your Highness, I've already gone to the camp outside the city."

"Let's go, let's go check it out!"

"Your Highness, do you want to ...... With a treat? ”

King Ning wanted to say that he would bring a hair, but after being entangled for a long time, he still said: "Go and prepare some cows, sheep, fruits and vegetables!" ”

-----------------

In a clearing outside the city, a camp has been set up.

The place was chosen by Belin and Mei Chun, because this team is very special, strictly speaking, they are not soldiers and horses who charge into battle, but students of the Kong Ming Lantern Research Institute.

】

In the eyes of outsiders, this is not a combat force at all.

Only they know that the next battle will completely subvert the world's cognition.

The camp should not be set up too close to the front line, otherwise, if it is attacked by the enemy, the result will be terrible.

King Ning's soldiers and horses were hoarded in Yazhou City, so Bei Lin and Mei Chun chose to be outside the city of Chengdu Mansion.

It's easy to go in and out, and it's close to the rail line, so it's easy to buy supplies.

Yu Qian's will was to fully cooperate with Belin, and he was very puzzled about this.

Belin is from the Academy of Sciences, responsible for the research and development of various weapons and new gadgets, these things are very powerful when fighting, but let an equipment research and development team play the main force, and hold the soldiers and horses themselves, and just cooperate?

This arrangement really doesn't make sense......

He didn't understand it very much, and after finding Belin, after greeting him, he talked about the battle situation in Uszang, especially the difficulties encountered during the battle.

The battle situation here is basically similar to what the emperor said, mainly because the Ming army considered the problem of battle losses and thought that it was not cost-effective to attack.

It's like a landlord who is old and rich, and his family is entangled, and there is a poor and sour man living next door, and a poor mouse comes to cry.

The landlord said, "The house you live in is mine, and I lent it to your family at the beginning, and now I want to take it back."

Of course, the poor acid was unwilling, so the two sides clashed.

The landlord wants to die and be poor, and there are 10,000 ways, but he needs to consider the cost.

The current Ming Dynasty is the landlord and the old wealth, as long as enough soldiers, horses, money and grain are invested, there is no problem in taking Wusizang.

However, considering the price to be paid, it is really a bit unworthwhile to think about what you can gain by capturing Uszang.

The interpretation of the king of Wusizang, Sandu, also saw the scruples of the Ming court, so he interpreted the ancient saying that bare feet are not afraid to wear shoes.

It's almost equivalent to standing on the top of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and shouting at the Ming army under the mountain-

Come and beat me, come and hit me!

Yu Qian was also very hesitant, let's fight, the price is too great, it's not big, I can't swallow this breath......

However, when he heard about the tactics this time, he immediately showed a shocked look.

If a small Kong Ming lantern can work, then all problems will be solved!

King Ning hurriedly arrived, and the two sides saluted, and immediately got to the point.

Belin gave a general account of the emperor's will and the tactics of the Academy of Sciences.

After hearing this, King Ning looked very surprised.

Such a tactic is unheard of before, and it is simply incredible.

A small Kong Ming lantern can decide the outcome of the battle?

You must know that I have been fighting on the front line for almost a year, and I have spent countless amounts of money and food, but I have never been able to gnaw on this hard bone.

The musket artillery is powerful, but ...... Expensive!

A cannonball is fifty taels of silver, and a bullet is almost two taels of silver, and every time the two sides fought, King Ning felt a pain in his flesh.

That's all white silver!

What's even more infuriating is that due to the special terrain, even if you capture a position, it is extremely difficult to defend it.

The transportation of ammunition supplies from Chengdu Province to the mountains was very difficult.

The ammunition that the rear had painstakingly sent over, and the front line was depleted in an instant with only a skirmish.

If it does not rely on firearms, although the Ming army has a high combat quality, it still does not have an advantage in fighting in the hypoxic environment of the plateau.

The king of Interpretation made full use of the terrain and played guerrilla warfare with the Ming army.

You hit me with artillery, and I'll run.

When you set up camp, I'll attack!

You've got plenty of ammo, and I'm still running.

When you run out of ammo, I'll be here again!

has been repeated so many times, and King Ning has collapsed.

As a last resort, he had to temporarily withdraw the army to Yazhou Mansion and wait for the support of the imperial court before making plans.

Now support has arrived, but ......

I want soldiers, horses, ammunition, supplies, not Kong Ming lanterns!

"This thing flies into the sky, and it can still be controlled?"

Belin replied: "Back to Your Highness, as long as the weather is right, you have mastered the wind speed, wind direction and other factors, and after calculation, it can be completed." ”

King Ning still doesn't believe it, he has spent a lot of money and food on his side, but he is always helpless, your Kong Ming lanterns are not as good as the consumption of one of my artillery, what role can they play?

"You're saying this thing can fly over enemy forces and drop bombs?"

"Exactly!"

Seeing King Ning's face full of disgust, Belin had to explain: "Although the technology is not mature enough now, and the hit rate has not met expectations, as long as there are enough numbers, the lethality is still very considerable." ”

King Ning was entangled for a long time, looked at Yu Qian, and asked, "Yu Shangshu, what do you think?" ”

Yu Qian nodded and said, "Xiaguan thinks it's feasible!" ”

"Is it really possible?"

"At least...... It's worth a try. ”

King Ning is even more bottomless in his heart, the more the battle drags on, the more unfavorable it is for himself.

He would love to make a quick decision and not waste time here with the Academy of Sciences.

Just the daily food and drink of tens of thousands of people on the front line is amazing enough.

But what about the holy decree in their hands......

Now there is no other way but to try.

"Tell me, how should this king cooperate?"

Belin said: "Your Highness only needs to put on the front line of the army, put on an offensive posture, and then, just wait." ”
