Chapter 376: The Personal Charm of the Yongle Emperor!

"Lizheng~"

The loud slogan spread throughout the Baisha defense line and reached the ears of every Ming soldier.

"Whoa!"

Standing on the city wall, standing on the landing ground outside the wall, or standing among the corpses of the enemy, each soldier stood neatly and solemnly, looking straight at the group of people who slowly walked by.

Slowly stopped, and the old man's eyes slowly looked around.

His face was blackened by gunsmoke, he was dressed in tatters from the battle, or he was bandaged from his wounds.

He wanted to remember every soldier deeply, and he paused slightly to take a closer look at every face.

Looking at the young and immature but very resolute faces, the old man seemed to recall that he followed General Xu Da to the battlefield for the first time.

In the blink of an eye, decades have passed, new people have replaced old people, and the old faces have disappeared, and now they are replaced by young faces.

Although the faces of these soldiers were strange and immature, for some reason, the old man gradually merged the appearance of all the soldiers with the appearance of those old brothers.

After tidying up the military uniform like an ordinary soldier, the old man faced all the soldiers, slowly raised his hand, and solemnly entered a military salute.

This salute is very long, and this salute comes from the old man's heart.

"Take a break!"

Slowly withdrawing his hand, the old man said softly to Zhu Zhangui, who was following him.

Zhu Zhangui nodded and raised his hand to all the soldiers in salute.

"All of them, take a break!"

"Whoa!"

All the soldiers straddled with their guns in their hands, looked at the commander-in-chief's gaze, and did not leave for a moment.

There were many soldiers present, and it was the first time that they saw the Emperor Taishang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so closely, and many people were very excited in their hearts, and they refused to take their eyes off for a moment.

"Today is the first day of October in the fourth year of Hongxi, a day that shocked the world, and a day that will be written into the history of the Ming Dynasty."

The old man's voice was loud, and his voice reached the ears of every soldier through the loudspeaker in front of him.

"Because just today, you have completed an impossible thing, and with the fastest speed ever, you have won the most difficult level in this world!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The old man's last roar completely detonated the entire battlefield, and all the soldiers raised their weapons and roared loudly, venting the excitement in their hearts, and at the same time telling those dead brothers that their achievements had been recognized by the Emperor Taishang and recognized by the world.

"I thank each and every one of you, thank those brothers who died in battle, it was you who guarded the safety of the Ming Dynasty with your blood and lives, and it was you who defeated one enemy after another peeking into the Central Plains with your indomitable will."

"For thousands of years, my Central Plains has been bullied by foreigners, and countless Han men have stained the battlefield with blood for defending the country and protecting the people."

"However, the incompetence of those in power, the stupidity of the commanders, all their blood has come to naught, and the iron hooves of foreign races have trampled on our land again and again, and their scimitars have slaughtered our relatives again and again."

"Our ancestors wept, our ancestors were angry, but those in power let them down again and again."

"However, just when everyone gave up, my Ming Dynasty rose, and my father led your ancestors to fight on the battlefield, expel the Tartars, and restore my Han family's clothes!"

"More than ten years ago, I took your fathers to fight against the grassland generals, and when I fought thousands of miles, I will completely defeat the enemy who threatens us."

"Today, more than ten years later, you have inherited the will of your ancestors, let me be bright, let me Yan and Huang race, stand on top of the world again!"

"Yan Huang is developing under your protection, the enemy is retreating under your blows, and you have used bayonets, fists and teeth to fight for our children and grandchildren for a thousand years of peace, and laid a huge land for them to survive."

"I am proud of you, your parents and relatives are proud of you, and the whole Ming Dynasty is proud of you!"

The old man's roaring speech made all the soldiers' blood boil, and when the three old men shouted out in honor in the end, all the soldiers roared loudly.

"Da Ming, Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!"

Standing beside the old man, Zhu Zhangui's heart also boiled.

He looked at the old man who was still in good spirits even though his hair was gray, and his heart was full of admiration.

What is charisma?

It's called charisma.

The simple and ordinary words of encouragement came out of the old man's mouth, making people seem to have been praised by the whole world.

The old man's gestures as he spoke were watched closely by all the soldiers.

This is the charm of the emperor, and this is the Yongle Emperor who is famous all over the world.

The cheers gradually fell, and the old man pinched his waist with both hands, looked at all the soldiers, and said in a loud voice:

"The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, the robes of a certain country, my brothers, tell me, you tell me loudly, are you satisfied with this small battle?"

"Not satisfied, not satisfied!"

Physically and mentally exhausted, all the soldiers still roared loudly.

"Haha, yes, we're not satisfied, this little merit wants to send us away, dream of his grandmother, our brothers are very greedy."

"Hahaha......"

Laughter resounded throughout the battlefield, and the old man waved his hand, pointing at the defense line inside the Baisha level.

"Take it, take this last stumbling block, let's drink wine and eat meat with all the brothers tonight!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Morale is boiling and fighting spirit is high.

With a wave of the old man's hand, the vanguard legion that replenished the ammunition and the source of troops let out an earth-shattering roar, and rushed towards the last line of defense of the Baisha level without fear of death.

The old man did not return to the observation post, but went to the city wall, had a war drum fetched, threw his hat aside, and personally cheered for the charging soldiers.

"Knock knock ......"

"Kill..."

The sound of drums and shouts of killing shook the sky, and one soldier with a rifle with a bayonet in his hand, let out a hoarse shout, followed by his comrades-in-arms like the last line of defense of the Timurid Empire, launched wave after wave of ferocious attacks.

On the other side, Jianghuai, who also received orders, also launched an attack from the rear with his soldiers.

Under the attack of the two sides, the defense line of the Timurid Empire was in an emergency.

"Your Majesty, the eighth outpost has been breached, and the Ming army has rushed into the inner line."

"Your Majesty, the back gate of the city has been blown open, and the enemy has rushed in."

"Your Majesty, the enemy's iron bird is here again and is slaughtering our soldiers in a frenzy."

"Your Majesty, the artillery corps reported that the ammunition depot was occupied, and they only had five rounds of ammunition left."

One bad news came one after another, and Shaharu, who was sitting on the chair with his head down, clenched his fists tightly.

He's not reconciled, he's really not reconciled.

He didn't believe that Da Ming was so strong, and it only took one day to break through the natural danger level that he had spent countless manpower and had been preparing for several years.

But the reality is such a slap in the face, the last internal defense line has been broken in many places, and the crazy Ming army has been killed.

"Your Majesty, retreat, if we continue like this, we will be completely annihilated!"

A general finally stood up and said what no one dared to say.

There was a deathly silence in an instant, and everyone looked at Shaharu.

"What are you talking about!"

His head slowly raised, and Shaharu, whose eyes were already blood-red, stared at the general who stood up.

Although the general was nervous in a cold sweat, he still gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty the King retreat, if this continues, we will have no other result than the annihilation of the whole army." ”

"There are 1/3 of our empire's army here, and if all of them are buried here, then our empire will be completely finished."

"It's not that we don't have opportunities, we still have countless cities, and we can stick to it city by city."

"The reason why we suffer such a big loss today is because we don't know the Ming army and don't know how they fight."

"Because of that, we lost a lot of people in the early days."

"Now that we know, the next time we meet them, we can specifically defend against them, and even counter-enforce them."

"This kind of large-scale battle with the Ming army is actually a wrong choice."

"We should take advantage of the powerful depth and harsh environment of our empire, exchange space for time, disperse the troops of the Ming army, and use the disadvantage of their unfamiliar terrain to sneak attack, block and block, and consume the strength of the Ming army little by little, instead of fighting the Ming army here."

Saying that, the officer knelt on one knee, looked at Shahru and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, war is not a child's play, and the victory or defeat of each battle is related to the fate of our entire empire. ”

"We can fail a lot of times, but we can still rise because we are fighting on our own soil."

"And the Ming army can't, their weapons need strong logistics, as long as we seize this and carry out multi-faceted strikes, when the support of the Ottoman Empire arrives, victory will be ours."

The general's words made Shaharu's angry expression gradually relaxed, and his blood-red eyes faded.

"What's your name?"

Shaharu was not very familiar with this young general, and seemed to have only a slight impression.

"The last general, Uchar, is a Tatar, after our tribe was defeated by the Ming Dynasty, he came to the empire to join the army, and now serves as a logistics and transportation officer."

"Uchar!"

Shaharu repeated the name in his mouth, then looked at the other party and asked seriously: "If I want to hand over the army of the empire to you, can you defeat the Ming army." ”

Everyone present was instantly stunned, and Uchar was a little surprised, but then he was overjoyed and knew that his opportunity had come.

"No, but I can hold back the Ming Dynasty, gain time for the final victory, and kill the Ming army on a large scale during this period."

"Okay, that's enough." Shaharu slapped the table, pointed at Uchar and said, "I now appoint you as the general officer in charge of the retreat, responsible for directing this retreat, down to the ordinary soldiers and up to me, the king, all obey your arrangement." ”

"If you can successfully lead us to retreat this time, I will worship you as the general of the Timurid Empire, responsible for the full command of the anti-Ming affairs."

Uchar's heart thumped with excitement, the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally come, he could finally avenge his grandfather.

The little prince of the Tatar tribe of Uchar, the grandson of Arutai.

He has been loved by Arutai since he was a child, and he has always been with him to educate.

When he fought against Da Ming at the beginning, Arutai was not sure of victory, so he sent his little grandson, who had worked hard, to a safe place.

I plan to pick it up if I win, and if I defeat myself, I can still keep a root.

It's a pity that he was defeated later, and what is even more unfortunate is that the Ming attack speed is too fast, and the Ming army killed the Ming army before Uchar could control the Tatar tribe.

If he hadn't run fast at that time, I'm afraid he would have become a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty by now.

Uschar was an ambitious man, he did not go to the Golden Horde with the large army, because he knew that if he went, he would either be killed or imprisoned for the rest of his life.

So he chose another way out and took refuge in the Timurid Empire, he wanted to rely on his own ability to break a way out in the Timurid Empire and get a high and powerful position, if there was an opportunity, he would not hesitate to replace it.

It's a pity that because he is not from his own clan, although he has good ability and dares to fight, he only served as a small officer, and then with the credit of delivering grain and grass on time, he was promoted to a small level and became a grain and grass transportation officer.

He was not qualified to come to this important place, and later the front line was defeated, and his superiors asked him to gather logistics troops to prepare to replenish them, and he dared to come over to report before he caught up.

"Your Majesty, the last general will do his best to complete the task you have assigned."

Shaharu nodded, glanced at all the generals, and said coldly, "Have you heard my orders?" ”

The generals hurriedly got up, "Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Shaharu snorted coldly, he felt extremely disgusted by these guys who occupied high positions but were useless at all, if it weren't for the fact that no one was really useful, he would have kicked all these guys into the dung pit.

Uschar, who took over the command, quickly showed his abilities.

The originally chaotic troops began to gradually order, and according to the requirements of their superiors, they began to retreat in an orderly manner in the direction of the Ming army.

The retreat of the Timurid Empire naturally could not be concealed from the Ming side.

Some generals proposed to chase them closely, but the old man refused.

In the words of the old man: The rabbit bites people when they are in a hurry, and they force people to be anxious, and they give us desperate resistance, and we don't know if we lose the lives of our brothers in vain.

And most importantly, the opposite side has already changed generals, and the command style is completely different, that is, because they are not familiar with the army of the Timurid Empire, otherwise the retreat will be smoother.

Zhang Fu is also very good for this.

Now the Ming army has fought a bloody day, already physically and mentally exhausted, if the enemy is forced too quickly, it is easy for the enemy to fight back to the death, at that time, once the Ming army has a slight point of loopholes, it will cause a lot of casualties, which is extremely not in line with the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

And the purpose of this operation is to take the Baisha defense line and kill a large number of living forces of the Timurid Empire.

Now that the first objective is about to be completed, the second objective can be handed over to the airship unit of the Air Force to complete, and there is no need to push the enemy too dead at this time.

With the instructions of the Supreme Commander and the commander of this battle, the Ming army began to slowly slow down the attack, and even deliberately let the soldiers of the Timurid Empire go.

Uchar also caught this and gave the order for a quick retreat.

When the time reached dusk, the Baisha defense line, which had been sounding gunfire for a day, was completely quiet.

Bonfires rose in the city, and the main legionnaires, who had been fighting for a day today, sat around the fire under the envious eyes of the guarded legionnaires, eating barbecued meat, drinking the wine rewarded by the emperor, and laughing and talking loudly.

In the battle of the Baisha defensive line, the Ming army won a complete victory.

In this battle, the Ming army lost a total of 1,800 casualties, 3,500 light and serious wounded, which can be regarded as a loss of half of the army.

On the Timurid Empire's side, at least 60,000 of the 150,000 troops were killed and more than 5,000 were captured, and the rest were evacuated and were being chased for their lives by airships and planes.

The side with fewer troops won the battle, and the side that occupied the natural danger of 50,000 more people was unbelievable, but the Ming army did it, and with small casualties, it won the natural danger of heavy guarding. This battle created a new siege method, and brought countless valuable siege experience to the Ming Dynasty to conquer the world in the future.
