Chapter 390: Shock
No matter in which dynasty, the royal drive is a great event, sacrifice to heaven and earth, hundreds of officials to send each other, the people kneel and so on, a series of etiquette is too many to count, very grand, no other, this is the moment to show the national prestige, military prestige, although Yinzuo has always been impatient with those red tape, but can only press the temperament, with the gang of officials of the Ministry of Rites to toss, one is the ancestral system, not violated, two, this is also a measure to appease the people, but it can not be saved.
On September 21 of the second year of Yuanzhuo, Yinzuo personally led an army of 13,000 firearms battalions, 2,000 Shanpu battalions accompanied by Zhang Tingyu and Li Guangdi, the minister of military aircraft, set out from Beijing, after more than two months of long-distance marching, arrived in Jilantai in Inner Mongolia in early December, the army was stationed, ready to spend the winter, and ordered the princes of the Mongolian tribes to come to the alliance, and ordered the Alabutan to come to discuss the state of the country, and at the same time mobilized 4,000 Khalkha Mongolian cavalry to prepare to cross the 800-li dry sea after the beginning of spring, and advance into the Jungar Department. On the eighteenth day of the first month of the third year of Yuanzhuo, the belated Dzungar Khan led three thousand light horsemen to Jilantai.
"Enlighten the Holy One, Dzungar Khan has instigated Alabutan to arrive, please make it clear to the Holy One." Yinzuo was studying the military exercises with a group of generals in the big tent, when he suddenly heard the voice of Gao Nianying, the chief eunuch who accompanied him, and thought for a while: "Call him in, and I will see him." ”
"Wait." Zhang Tingyu, who was accompanying him in the big tent, hurriedly stood up, stopped Gao Nianying, who was about to deliver the decree, bowed to Yinzuo and said: "Holy Lord, although the Jungger Department has surrendered to my Qing Dynasty, it is just forced by the situation, and my army is about to enter the Junggar battle, if we neglect to plot against Alabutan, then ......"
"It's okay." Yinzuo smiled, waved his hand to let all the generals withdraw from the big tent, and said to Zhang Tingyu with a smile: "Hengchen, what you said is clear to me, the ambition of the wolf son of Alabutan is unruly, this surrender is just to take advantage of me, if I defeat Russia, as long as he returns to the army, he will undoubtedly rebel, this article I have long been clear, hum, if I and Russia fight a lose-lose game, this bastard will definitely fight together, why should I be polite to this person, I just want to suppress people with power, first suppress the wildness of this son, When I clean up the old man, I will clean him up when I turn around, I am not afraid that he will turn against the sky. ”
Zhang Tingyu thought about it and didn't say anything more, just bowed down and said, "The emperor is sage." And he stepped aside. Yinzuo said to Gao Nianying: "Go, pass the decree, and say that I will let him enter the account alone." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Gao Nianying bowed down and agreed, withdrew from the big tent, and went to pass the order without mentioning it. Most likely, but listening to the creaking sound of leather boots on the snow outside the tent, Gao Nianying led a tall and strong man in his forties in, but saw that this person was wearing a tiger skin jacket, wearing a leopard skin hat, a pair of deerskin boots, a square face and big eyes, two thick eyebrows straight into the sideburns, a gray beard half dry and half wet, there was still some unmelted snow slag on the head, a pair of eyes were as sharp as knives, and the dark face was indifferent, and there was no expression of dissatisfaction.
"The minister's Zhungar tribe plotted to ask Alabutan to see the saint, long live my emperor, long live, long live." As soon as Arabutan saw Yinzuo, who was sitting on the top, he immediately touched the ground on one knee, touched his chest with his hand, and respectfully performed a Mongolian salute.
Hehe, good guy, there is still a little bit of his ancestor Temujin's appearance, put this guy in the future to play Temujin, it is estimated that even makeup is saved, hey, dare to come to see us alone, a little bold, it seems that this person can dominate the grassland, but it is worthy of his reputation. It's a pity, you met us, you can only be considered unlucky! Yinzuo looked at this old enemy who had been fighting with the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years with great interest, and raised his hand with a smile and said: "Excuse me, get up, I have long admired Aiqing across the desert and roaring grassland, and when I saw it today, I really got a hero, good!" I am very comforted, come and sit. The little eunuchs who were standing aside hurriedly moved a few pieces and placed them beside Arabutan.
"The emperor has a good reputation, and the ministers dare not be ashamed. Thanksgiving, sitting. Arabutan's face remained unchanged, he bowed down and thanked him, and without much politeness, he sat down without squinting.
Yo ho, I can really calm down, ***, let's stab you. Yinzuo never liked that someone would pose in front of him, and he was originally not interested in this delirious Alabutan, and then he saw that this benevolent brother was energetically performing a mighty and unyielding appearance, and he was even more angry in his heart, but he didn't bring it to his face, and said with a smile: "Aiqing passed the book to me, saying that Lao Maozi has strong firepower and is unstoppable, I really want to know, how Aiqing fought this battle?" ”
As soon as Yinzuo mentioned the battle of Brentohai, he happened to hit the death hole of Arabutan, only to see that Arabutan's face suddenly twitched, his eyes as sharp as a knife dimmed, and his breath was a little faster, as if he was holding back the anger in his heart, and after being silent for a while, he let out a sigh and said: "If you return to the saint, Lao Maozi invaded the border of my Jungger Department and slaughtered my people, and the minister had to wave his army to resist to the death, and the minister led more than 15,000 elite horsemen to fight with Lao Maozi in Brento Haizi, The minister took more than 2,000 elite cavalry as the middle army, the front army was 5,000, the left and right sides were 3,000 each, the left and right wings went out first, and the front army pressed on the ......" Strategy, Alabutan, briefly recounted the battle by the Brento Sea, and there was no difference with the specific battle situation that Yinzuo had learned, but the words of Strategy, Alabutan, revealed a deep fear of the firearms troops.
Hey, scared? That's good, now it's our turn to put on a firearms war lesson for you. It is impossible for Yinzuo to let go of the Jungar Ministry, but before he solves Lao Maozi, Yinzuo does not plan to turn his face with Celsar Alabutan, if he wants to make Celtic Alabutan honest and obedient in the Sino-Russian war, then he must deter Celan Alabutan, not to mention temporarily subduing this person, at least not let him make trouble.
"Aiqing has been wronged, I will send a large army to suppress this time, and I will seek justice for Aiqing, so let's do it, I will conduct a military exercise tomorrow, Aiqing will watch the excitement with me, and let Aiqing see the power of my Daqing firearms battalion, well, Aiqing might as well compare my firearms battalion with Lao Maozi, and go back to talk to me, so that I can have a bottom in my heart." Yinzuo said with a smile. Although Yinzuo said it gently, there was an irresistible majesty in his words, and he couldn't tolerate Alabutan not saying a word.
When he entered Yinzuo's camp, he saw the firearms on the firearms battalion, but he didn't know how this gun compared to Lao Maozi's arquebus, so he originally had the intention to inquire about it, but at this time, seeing Yinzuo's invitation, he naturally would not refuse, got up, bowed down and stroked his chest and said: "The minister respectfully obeys the order of the saint." ”
"Well, I'm a little tired, you kneel down." Yin Zuo said lightly.
"Retire!" Arabutan nodded to the ground on one knee, bowed, and bowed out of the tent.
"Hengchen, how is this person?" After Arabutan withdrew, Yin Zuo turned his head slightly and asked Zhang Tingyu, who was standing beside him.
"If you go back to the emperor, this person is calm, not impatient, and he is a hero." Zhang Tingyu replied sharply.
"Hahaha......" Yinzuo laughed and said: "Yes, it's a hero, I deliberately humiliated him, and I didn't greet him, just to see how this guy performed, hey, I really didn't disappoint me, this kind of opponent has some taste." ”
"Saint, will the military exercise tomorrow reveal the combat strength of our army, and make the conspirator Alabutan suspicious, if it is ......" Zhang Tingyu glanced at Yinzuo, and said with a look of wanting to say something.
"Out of the way." Yin Zuo shook his hand and said: "It's not the first time that the old thief and I have fought with Daqing, hey, he knows me Daqing very well, and it is because of this understanding that I can set up a trap for him to drill." Zhang Tingyu thought about it for a while, and although he didn't dare to ask more, his face was full of doubts.
Hey, this Lao Zhang is cautious in everything he does, and he doesn't dare to ask questions if he has questions, he's too tired to live. Yinzuo glanced at Zhang Tingyu, and then said: "Hengchen, you are my old minister of the Qing Dynasty, you should be familiar with my previous battle examples of the Qing Dynasty, but whenever I send troops to the Qing Dynasty, even if it wins, the army has no possibility of staying in the local area, and at the end of the day, you always have to retreat, at most only leave a small number of garrisons in the local area, so that the wildfire will not be burned and the spring breeze will blow again, it will be inevitable." All he thought about was to use me to help him defeat Lao Maozi, and when my army withdrew, he would do whatever he wanted, and even Xiang I would be saved. It's just that he miscalculated this time, and I will make him suffer. ”
Zhang Tingyu bowed and said, "The emperor is sage." But the look of doubt on his face was still the same, and Yinzuo didn't explain much, he waved his hand with a smile and turned back to the back account by himself.
On the nineteenth day of the first month of the third year of Yuanzhuo, a terrible horn sounded in the dense drumbeat, and the originally silent camp of Jilantai suddenly boiled, and groups of soldiers with steel guns and bags rushed out of the barracks in a swarm, braving the light snow scattered by themselves, and rushed to the open space outside the barracks, with the sound of a command, but a pillar of incense time, the whole army of 15,000 men and horses had been sorted out, and a neat formation was arranged in the open space outside the barracks, and the artillery, cavalry, and foot battalions were in place. As the last hammer of the drumming fell, the whole camp immediately fell silent again, and the officers and men of the three armies waited calmly, slightly nervously waiting for the arrival of the emperor and the issuance of the exercise order.
At the moment, Yinzuo, dressed in bright yellow clothes, stepped out of the Chinese army's tent surrounded by a group of senior officers, and hundreds of Mongolian princes who had been waiting outside the tent immediately knelt on the ground, shouting long live.
"You Aiqing are flat, and follow me to the martial arts platform, so that I can watch my sons and daughters perform." Yinzuo laughed and waved his hand to signal the group of Mongolian kings to be fair.
"Thank you for your grace." The Mongol princes thanked each of them and walked closely behind Yinzuo towards a wooden wall that had already been erected outside the camp.
Yin Zuo walked up to the wall, walked to the dragon chair in the middle and sat down, glanced at the soldiers of the three armies not far from the wall, and waved his hand with a smile.
"Knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" More than 10,000 soldiers brushed the ground on one knee, beating Qian'er.
"The armies are flat." Yinzuo was full of qi and raised his hand.
"Thank you for your grace." The soldiers of the three armies have finished thanking him, and Wang Changtai, who is the commander-in-chief of the firearms battalion, walked out from among the generals and said a thousand words: "Your Majesty, the three armies are already in place, please give instructions to the emperor!" ”
"Alright, let's get started." Yin Zuo commanded lightly.
"Wow!" Wang Changtai got up and waved his hand to the generals on both sides, and the generals on the wooden wall immediately rushed down the city wall and returned to their headquarters. Wang Changtai strode to the wooden wall, took the two small flags handed over by Goshha beside him, waved them, and in an instant, the various troops that were originally neatly facing the wooden wall began to turn in an orderly manner, running towards their preset positions.
At three o'clock, a cannon under the wooden wall rang out violently, and then, more than 100 cannons roared, but I saw a small hill full of wooden targets three hundred zhang away exploded with clouds of smoke, black soil mixed with white snowflakes splashed around, this is not enough, the power of the Qing army's cannons The Mongolian princes present have already seen it, and they don't think there is anything surprising, but the next scene made the Mongolian princes change color.
The cannon continued to shoot, as the flag in Wang Changtai's hand continued to be issued, more than a dozen infantry phalanxes, lined up in a neat formation and marched forward steadily, the drum sounded, the neat phalanx rolled up like a wave, wave after wave, the sound of fried bean-like guns seemed to never stop ringing, only to see a long wooden wall seventy or eighty zhang away from the phalanx suddenly trembled, like a dance to tremble, the wooden wall made of thick planks was bombarded into a hornet's nest in an instant, less than a pillar of incense, The original thick wooden wall has been crooked, and the gunfire still has no intention of stopping, and then, the artillery originally aimed at the hill bag turned back, after a fierce shelling, the hundreds of feet long wooden wall has been extinguished, at this time a horn sounded, the musket stopped firing, a cavalry with a musket in hand rushed out, the musket in his hand fired at the same time, and then all the cavalry hung their guns on the hook of the saddle, and at the same time drew the saber at the waist, like a whirlwind swept over the location of the original wooden wall... …
In less than half an hour before and after the whole exercise, all the targets were destroyed, and all the Mongol princes were dumbfounded, staring blankly at the battlefield that had been ravaged by artillery fire, and they were speechless in shock......
