Chapter 274: The Winning Trick was forced to be launched helplessly
It is not too accurate to say that it is the first time, and when attacking the city of Lergen in the Korqin Division, the Ming army used similar blasting tactics.
But that time was just a small city equivalent to a fortress, and to break through the fortified cities of Haicheng, Liaoyang, Shenyang and other scales, it was obviously not enough to use external blasting.
The external blasting is not strong enough, so it comes to the inside, and the tunnel blasting is not new to the emperor at all.
During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the "city was like a piece of paper", and in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the devil was allowed to take a "dirt plane", but he just made the tunnel blasting bloom hundreds of years in advance.
After continuous exercises and training, the Ming army, or the world's first demolition unit, was born.
The first, the first, the emperor has lost count of how many firsts he has created.
Xiong Tingbi finished writing the secret recital, blew dry the ink, carefully folded it and put it in the secret recital box and locked it, and ordered someone to send it to the capital.
With a long sigh of relief, Xiong Tingbi picked up the teacup and drank it, and suddenly remembered another thing, and hurriedly ordered someone to summon Wang Hui to come.
Sun Yuanhua took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Liao, but the emperor did not allow it, and asked him to choose another trustworthy person to bring rockets to Liaodong to help in the war.
Wang Hui came out at the time and became the first commander of the Ming rocket force.
To say that this Wang Hui is not simple, and Sun Yuanhua is a good friend, also into the teaching, very much research on Western studies, author of the Far West strange artifact diagram.
Wang Hui participated in the whole process of rocket development and exercises, and he was no worse than Sun Yuanhua on how to operate it.
There was not much time, so Wang Hui was ordered to rush in and go inside to meet Xiong Tingbi.
"Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite." Xiong Tingbi stretched out his hand and helped him weakly, and ordered his soldiers to serve tea.
After Wang Hui took his seat, he took a sip politely, and waited for Xiong Tingbi to ask.
"When Lord Wang first came, he talked to Benjing about this, this rocket." Xiong Tingbi stroked his beard and asked uncertainly: "You said at that time that the range of the rocket can reach up to five miles?" ”
Wang Hui arched his hand and said firmly: "The longest range should be five miles, if it is set at four to five miles, it will be more accurate." ”
Xiong Tingbi's eyes flashed, nodded vigorously, and said: "Lord Wang, please elaborate on the power of this rocket, this time with Jianyu, maybe you have to borrow the power of the rocket." ”
Wang Hui was also in good spirits, what did he do when he came to Liaodong, that is, to use rockets in actual combat and strive to make a great contribution. Therefore, he was afraid that Xiong Tingbi would not pay attention to this newly built rocket force.
But seeing Xiong Tingbi is eyes brighter the more he listens, Wang Hui's heart also relaxed, and he spoke more energetically.
"Good, excellent." Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but clap his hands, got up and paced a few steps indoors, stared at Wang Hui and said, "Lord Wang, please get ready, the rocket force will be used in this battle." The defeat of Jianguo can be relied on a lot. ”
Wang Hui hurriedly stood up and bowed in response, and without saying much, he retreated.
Hmph, hum, old slave, old slave. In Ningyuan, the camp was bombarded with a Hongyi cannon, and this time, I never dreamed that I would suffer again!
Five hundred rockets, enough. Although the accuracy is poor, but the huge camp will not be missed, right?
Xiong Tingbi stroked his beard and looked out the window, the autumn wind was bleak, and it was already cold. The early winter is coming, and this winter, Jian Yu is afraid that he will die in the ice and snow.
………………….
The autumn breeze is bleak, and it is already cold.
Tens of thousands of horses drove out from Shenyang, waving flags and hoofing hooves. Surrounded by his generals, Nurhachi followed the Chinese army southward.
This launch, needless to say, Nurhachi himself felt the oppression of the atmosphere, and it was a completely different mentality and spirit from the previous army dispatches.
In the past, when the Jurchens launched a war against the Ming Kingdom, they were happy, and their domestic slaves also followed with large and small vehicles, all wanting to make a lot of money and return victorious.
Of course, such joy is not full of returns. For example, in the battle of Ningyuan, not only did not grab it, but it was a loss of troops and a disgraced return.
But this time it was very different, there was no enthusiasm for everyone to think about fighting, but it was shrouded in heaviness, and even some tragedy that would never return.
Although the old slave sat in Shenyang in order to stabilize people's hearts, he did not relocate the people, and also blocked a lot of news.
But the embarrassment of reality cannot be hidden, "The price of rice is five taels of silver, although there are many silver taels, there is no foreign trade, and everything is expensive with silver." ”
It is difficult to buy food in the market if you have money, and there are "good horses, one hundred and fifty taels of silver." Ox one, silver one hundred taels. One python satin, one hundred taels of silver. One piece of cloth, seven taels of silver. ”
Although the Later Jin was very strong in war, in terms of productivity, it was only equivalent to the early stage of feudal society, or even the stage of primitive society.
The mode of production is backward, the level of productivity is low, and Houjin can grow, all of which depends on the method of "fighting to feed the war".
Over the past few years, Houjin really didn't grab anything, but lost a lot.
However, the economic blockade of the Ming Kingdom became tighter and tighter, and the Korqin Department, an ally of the Later Jin, was defeated, and it is not surprising that the fragile economy of the Later Jin fell into collapse.
Of course, Nurhachi and others did not know what an "economic crisis" was, but they knew that if they did not launch it at this time and win a victory, the situation would deteriorate beyond control.
Fushun forehead Li Yongfang rode slowly with an expressionless face, no longer Nurhachi's confidants, and he was far away from Nurhachi's left and right.
Fan Wencheng was behind Li Yongfang, his face was heavy, and his heart was not belonging.
I don't know when, Li Yongfang slowed down his horse, narrowed the distance between him and Fan Wencheng, and suddenly said slowly: "Xiandou, Sibeile's side"
Fan Wencheng glanced around with the corner of his eye, and then lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, someone has been sent to notify you." ”
Li Yongfang nodded and stopped talking. After a long time, he sighed and said in a low voice: "Ming Guo is really a behemoth, even if he wins this battle, it is only a slight relaxation. It's too hard and too hard to turn the tide. ”
Fan Wencheng sighed sympathetically and said, "Or the number of qi is not exhausted, and there has been a Ming Jun for hundreds of years, but it is at this time. ”
Li Yongfang smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "It can indeed be called Mingjun." Providence, providence......"
The old slave rebelled against the Ming, and the construction was rampant; The Ming army was defeated repeatedly, and almost all of Liaodong fell.
In such a situation, the courage of the captives is only one aspect. The most important thing is the corruption of the Ming Dynasty, the party strife in the court, the greed of the bureaucracy, and the mediocrity of the emperor.
In feudal society, the importance of the emperor to a country is self-evident. A bright monarch can rejuvenate the country, and a faint monarch can also defeat the country, or even destroy the country.
From Wanli to the short-lived Taichang, and then to the carpenter emperor who had just ascended the throne for a year or two. Although there are times when Xiong Tingbi is reused to suppress the rising momentum of the construction of the captive, it is more of a continuous party struggle, and the person in charge of Liaodong keeps changing.
Confusion, confusion! The employment of personnel is not specialized, the employment of personnel is improper, the food and salary are insufficient, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit......
These internal problems have always been difficult to solve, although the Ming State is large, but it is large and weak, large and scattered, and the bigger it is, the more difficult it is to unite sincerely and unite with the outside world.
It can be said that the continuous victory and gradual strengthening of the Jianguo were achieved on the basis of the Ming State's own mistakes.
