Chapter 53: The Han people are terrible
Aru Timur endured anger and fear, and finally chose to drink with Yang Feng with a smile.
How else?
He's a captive.
Besides, he also knew that he was at a loss, he just wanted to pretend to be a force in front of the King of Liao, after all, he was also an important minister of the Yuan Dynasty in the past, although he had to surrender, but it was impossible to say how deferential he was, just to show his horseback national courage in front of these Han people.
Then I didn't expect to bump into someone braver than him.
Willing to gamble and lose!
As for the reason why he suddenly came in the wind and snow, it was simple......
"Winter assault?"
Yang Feng said unexpectedly.
Zhu Yuanzhang's latest decree has arrived in Beiping.
At this time, Zhu Di had already returned to Beiping, and the content of the holy decree was very simple, Layue sent troops, smashed the black pine forest, and solved Xiyang Ha first.
"Your Majesty thought it was to come by surprise, otherwise once Xiyang Ha escaped into the mountains and forests, it would be almost impossible for our army to find him, and he also knew that we would not send troops in this cold winter, his side was cold and snowy, it can be said that birds and beasts are extinct, and there is nowhere to go in this season, so I can only hide in the black pine forest to roast and eat reserves. Our surprise attack this season can ensure that we are taken by surprise and wipe out all their troops in one fell swoop, and if we don't solve him, we can't open the road to Nurgan City, and only after solving him can we build ships and go down the river to Nurgan City. ”
Guo Ying said.
"What is the Black Pine Forest?"
Yang Feng said.
"Black Pine Forest ......"
Guo Ying just wanted to say it, but he stopped him.
"According to modern research, roughly in Bayan County, Harbin, your normal route to march should be to Kaiyuan, and then to Jilin, at this time it should be called Jilin, in the modern Fengman area of the Ming Dynasty Jilin shipyard, Hongwu 28th spring Zhou Xing, Song Sheng from there shipbuilding raid black pine forest.
Although he defeated Xiyangha's tribe, Xiyangha himself had already fled in advance with the main force.
As for this season's march, it's up to you. ”
Sister Liu's voice sounded.
"Bring me the map!"
Yang Feng shouted.
Guo Ying hurriedly asked people to take the map.
"Process."
He went on to say.
"Nenjiang in the middle road, you called Brain Wenjiang at that time."
"Brain Wenjiang."
Yang Feng said.
Guo Ying quickly marked his brain Wenjiang.
"At least the mouth of the Linghe River, at that time it was called Hulawen to poke Lukou."
"No, why did they go to Nenjiang when they built ships in Jilin, shouldn't they be Songhuajiang?"
"The Jilin Naval Division of the Ming Army has been fighting on the Songhua River and the Nenjiang River before, but it was frozen on the Nenjiang River in winter, and it naturally moved forward after the thaw, and the Ming army was not from south to north, but from west to east, there was still a road to the Hulan River, and there was also a commander of 30,000 Wei in Yilan."
……
Sister Liu said that Guo Ying looked for their map, and Yang Feng also looked for the corresponding route against his satellite map, and soon this joint command that spanned 600 years completed the replication of the route of the battle two years later in the original history. As for Yang Feng's talk, everyone can only ignore it with shock and fear, anyway, he himself doesn't shy away from anything, so don't worry about it, this must be known to the emperor.
Can't get it?
Then you don't have to understand.
"Zhou Xing, why didn't Song Sheng pursue?"
Guo Ying said.
"Just spring, only part of the thaw, but to the north is still frozen, Xiyang Ha is used to use climbing plows, they take climbing plows along the Songhua River north to escape into the mountains and forests further north, the Ming army can not continue to pursue."
Sister Liu said.
"Is Xiyangha hard to fight?"
Yang Feng asked suddenly.
"Ambassador, in front of my Ming Dynasty, there is no difficult enemy, my Ming Dynasty has swept away the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty so far, except for the fact that he did lose to Wang Baobao once, and he has not lost the battle since. Xiyang Ha also surrendered to the Ming Dynasty that year, but later rebelled, and the total number of people in the department was only a few thousand, but there were a few tribes nearby, but they were all the first rats at both ends, and I was a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and this generation was the only one to return. The difficult thing is the past, after all, it is almost difficult to see people to the north, in addition to the rivers, lakes and marshes are deep mountains and old forests, so they can only rely on waterways, but the waterways are tortuous, even from Jilin to the black pine forest, the waterways may have to be two thousand miles. ”
Guo Ying said.
"So why bother, thousands of elite cavalry, just kill them in a straight line.
From Jilin to the north along the Kacha River, to the Lalin River to cross the river and continue to the north, I will lead the way, let's go straight into the black pine forest, it is nothing more than the work of thousands of cavalry, there is no need to make so much trouble. ”
Yang Feng said.
"Uh, this ......"
"What is this, that, what are you afraid of with me?
Your emperor just let me be my guide. ”
"Okay, the old decay will report to King Yan first, no matter what, he will have to decide, where is King Yan now?"
"According to the schedule, it has passed the Shanhaiguan."
Aru Timur hurriedly said.
He was completely stunned at this time, looking at these guys seemed to be looking at monsters, after all, the thing on Yang Feng's wrist could speak, which was too terrifying, and this thing actually knew so much, it was even more terrifying. It seems that this is an omniscient demon, saying that these Han people can actually serve ghosts and gods, no wonder they are invincible, originally he was still a little angry and difficult to calm, but now he is completely shocked.
"King, please send an expedited message to King Yan, please come as soon as possible, King Yan gathered two thousand elites, prepare all the needs, King Yan will immediately join forces to go to Liaoyang as soon as he arrives, this battle is the first battle of the king, whether it can deter Liaodong, it depends on this battle, Ambassador Yang, the old man's duty is not this, you need to stay here, the king will ask Ambassador Yang."
Guo Ying said to Yang Feng.
"Okay!"
Yang Feng said very happily.
Five days later.
Three thousand cavalry led by Zhu Di arrived.
These three thousand are the real elite, and they all follow him to attack the grassland.
As for those Furlong machines, just like Yang Feng proposed to Zhang Fu, the small ones have been installed on the camel's back, and the large ones are still behind for the time being, after all, they don't need the large Furlong machines in a short time.
"Let the camels all lie down, end to end!"
Yang Feng said.
Zhang Fu hurriedly gave the order to the soldiers.
And Zhu Di, Zhu Zhi, Guo Ying, Xie Gui, Zhang Yu, Aru Timur, these generals were all there watching, and the five thousand cavalry around them were arrayed, and all the cavalry were spears, bows and arrows, and short weapons that they were used to, and they were all iron armor. It's just winter, so the iron armor is lined with fur, and they are all dressed in leather robes, and even their faces are wrapped in fur, and they are also coated with antifreeze grease, and they have rich experience in fighting in cold areas.
In fact, the Ming army's attacks were often deliberately chosen when winter and spring were connected.
The reason is simple.
In winter, herders are relatively concentrated.
After all, there is snow everywhere, and except for a few wintering spots, it is impossible to drive away cattle and sheep as in summer and autumn.
This way, as long as you know these wintering grounds, you can raid them directly.
But the cold winter march is a little unbearable cold, and the real spring is scattered, that is, March and April, which has thawed, but the pasture grass has just sprouted the most perfect time period, the battle of the fishing sea, the battle of Jinshan, are all March attacks.
But this time it's the wax moon.
Camels, linked from end to end, immediately formed a camel wall on the moor after the snow.
The thing was taller than a horse, and even lying down was enough to form a visible obstacle, and with the wooden shelves on its back and the small furlong machine with the rotating gun carriage on its back, it was basically an improvised wall, and the soldiers then lifted the ammunition box from the camel's back, and at the same time blocked the camel's ears and blocked its outward eyes. Then they pressed down on the rear of the Furlong machine, took out the loaded cartridge and quickly loaded it into the rear bomb bay, and then the gunner held the handle on the tail and began to aim at the sheep in front of him as a target, and completed the launch as quickly as possible.
This small Furlong machine has very little recoil and is already leaking.
On the back of the camel, it was just pushing and shaking, and the camel blocked its ears and made a small sound, and it was impossible to see it with its eyes blocked on the outward side, so it was only a few times at most, and it was not affected at all.
The gunner pressed down on the tail of the gun as fast as he could.
The loader reloads as fast as possible.
Twenty seconds later, a second round of shells was fired.
Then press down on the tail again, complete the reload again, and fire again......
Ten cartridges per cannon.
In just over a minute, four rounds of shooting have been completed.
"This thing is really sharp, it was hastily encountered on the grassland, and even if the enemy cavalry came and went like the wind, it was finally bombarded by our rapid-fire artillery."
Zhu Di looked at the flock of sheep that were set on fire by dozens of furlong machines with satisfaction.
The poor sheep were all over the field.
"This is not enough, when your Ministry of Industry makes an arquebus, you can train a real firearms battalion, or it can be called a Shenji battalion, thousands of soldiers have an arquebus per person, and they will fire in turn from a hundred paces, and the infantry will no longer be afraid of cavalry."
Yang Feng said.
Of course, this requires discipline.
And the Ming army of this era happened to be the most disciplined army.
As for what tactics to give them......
The Spanish phalanx is actually enough to sweep the world.
"Even if the Ministry of Industry really makes it, you have to do your best to protect the pro-army first, and Xiao Wang doesn't know what year and month it will be his turn here."
Zhu Di said with a smile.
"Or can the king apply to His Majesty, and I will teach craftsmen to make here?"
Yang Feng said.
"Well, you don't have to."
Zhu Di said.
That's none of Yang Feng's business.
By this time, all ten cartridges of those Furlong machines had been shot.
The second round was not conducted.
This is a demonstration, and in a small-scale encounter in real combat, ten pre-loaded cartridges are enough, a large-scale battle is another matter, if it is a large-scale battle, it is impossible to get on this kind of small franc, the big franc of the infantry is really used in a big war.
"Ambassador Yang, in fact, this thing is not difficult to break, let the soldier wear heavy armor and push the shield cart, it is enough to block the shotgun you said, as long as you can push the shield cart in front of you, the rest depends on the soldier's bravery, although the rapid-fire cannon is fast, but after all, it is far less than the bow and arrow."
Zhang Fu said.
He was very prescient.
"But does Da Ming have such an enemy now?"
Yang Feng said.
"That's just as well."
Zhang Fu said.
Da Ming really doesn't have such an enemy!
Even the Ming army, which did not use the Fran machine, was already invincible.
