Chapter 224: Zhu Yuanzhang vs. Genghis Khan, a hundred cannons are arrayed, and vultures are waiting to eat!

"The cannon adjusts the range according to the regulations, checks the shells again, and each cannon is on the side, ensuring three boxes of shells!"

"Bow bed shooter hurry up, each bow bed should prepare at least ten rockets, and the front end of each arrow must be tied with fire oil bombs on the left and right sides!"

"The archers finally check the matching bow and finally check that the quiver is full of arrows."

"Switch, array!"

"If there is a mistake, military law is ruthless"

Under the sun,

On the city wall connecting the two natural mountains at the east gate of Yanmen Pass, the flag herald stood at the left and right ends of the highest part of the city gate tower, repeating the command flag to both sides.

On the city walls on both sides, the grassroots generals who were always paying attention immediately issued corresponding military orders after seeing the flag.

All of a sudden, the walls were filled with the sound of the gun commander Baihu and the bow and crossbow commander Baihu giving orders, as well as the sound of the defenders operating their equipment according to orders.

On the wall of the east gate, which is nearly a kilometer long, the new Hongwu cannon that has already pushed the muzzle out of the women's wall is almost ten meters apart.

On the third floor of the corridor of the gate tower of Yanmen Gate,

Zhu Yuanzhang watched the artillerymen operate the elevation adjustment mechanism of the cannon, and clearly heard the mechanical sound of the strip tooth buckle coming from the left and right.

Immediately afterward, he condescendingly saw that the elevation angle of the barrel of the cannon had undergone the same and different changes.

Just look at the nearby five guns, the elevation angle of each gun is different, and then look at the five guns behind, the elevation angle of each gun is different.

But the elevation angle of the ten guns corresponds to the same in pairs, the first gun and the sixth gun have the same elevation angle, the second gun and the seventh gun have the same elevation angle, the third gun and the eighth gun have the same elevation angle, the fourth gun and the ninth gun have the same elevation angle, and the fifth gun and the tenth gun have the same elevation angle.

And the hundred cannons on the entire city wall are all such a rule, that is, a hundred cannons have five different elevation angles, and every twenty cannons have the same elevation angle.

"This is the matrix misalignment adjustment range?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the 'regular wavy line' of black muzzles that crossed the city wall at his feet, and asked the commander-in-chief of the defense of the east gate next to him, the commander of the Yangming Fort Guard, General Chen.

General Chen knew that the temporary counselor next to him was an experienced veteran, but he didn't know why with their talent as Lord Ye, why they would invite such a temporary counselor.

But no matter what, he is a guest of Lord Ye, and he must be given enough in front of him.

General Chen just said relatively politely: "This is the tactical term taught to us by Lord Ye, in fact, I didn't understand what 'matrix misalignment' was before. ”

"But although I understand it now, I can't explain it clearly for a while, and I ask General Guo to forgive me for being clumsy."

"After the cannon was fired, General Guo naturally understood!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he just nodded with deep eyes, he was not in a hurry at this time, anyway, it would not be long before the cannon was fired.

At that time, he could naturally see that Master Ye, who had no experience in leading troops and lacked experience in talking about soldiers on paper, pioneered the 'matrix dislocation' style of play.

And this so-called 'matrix misalignment' play, whether it is a mule or a horse, will also be immediately clear!

"General Chen, come on!"

At this moment, a general shouted from upstairs.

After General Chen went downstairs, only Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang were left in the corridor on the third floor.

In Mao Xiang's eyes, the three soldiers in silver armor were running out of the city from the open gate, the first soldiers were all strong men, holding a rectangular iron shield one person high, and the second soldier was holding a spear, following closely.

When they ran two hundred paces outside the city, they immediately spread out on both sides, and the shield soldiers formed an iron shield wall in front of the city wall at a distance of two hundred paces outside the city.

Just as they were all standing in their lunges, the spearmen stabbed their spears through the square between the two shields!

You must know that the square iron shield in Yanmen County is not just an iron plate, and there are three notches in the upper middle and lower around it.

As long as the two shields are put together horizontally, three square openings will appear!

The opening was not big, just enough for the spear to stretch out, and just enough for the fire gun to stretch out, but at this time it was just a spear nearly a foot long that stretched out.

Just after the formation of the contradictory rejection array, a thousand sword and shield soldiers were also waiting behind them!

In Mao Xiang's opinion, on the city wall, there are two silver human walls wearing standard military armor!

Mao Xiao knew that this was the last line of defense of the city wall, and once he needed to use them, it would be a bloody battle!

He only hoped that when he didn't need them, after all, their wives and children and parents were in their homes behind the city walls, waiting for them to come home and be reunited!

"The artillery observer is in position, the bow bed observer is in position!"

“.”

As General Chen's order was conveyed, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others, who were in the corridor on the third floor of the city gate tower, heard hurried footsteps.

They knew it was time for them to give way.

At the two ends of the third and second floors of the gate tower are the positions of the two observers, as long as their command flags are waved downward, it is the military order for the cannon to fire and the bow bed to fire.

At the same time as the observer hand was in place, Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang came to the first floor of the city gate tower, that is, outside the command room of the east gate.

Mao Xiang whispered: "Your Majesty, if the West Gate battlefield is really the same as the East Gate where we are located, this Lord Ye's military orders have been implemented in the East and West Second Gates." ”

"In Chen's opinion, this is the way to play with layers of consumption, do you think it can be done?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the already visible billowing smoke in front of him and said: "It depends on his 'matrix dislocation' play, what kind of effect it is." ”

"If the effect is good, even if someone is lucky enough to rush over, the three thousand soldiers under the city will be able to cope with it completely!"

"Also, after the fight, the porters on the city wall will definitely move back and forth, don't call us Your Majesty, don't call us Master, call us General Guo!"

In Mao Xiang's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the rolling sand and dust that was getting closer, but his eyes jumped slightly, and his eyes became solemn.

Mao Xiang knew that compared to the enemy in front of him, what Ye Qing's countermeasures were, in Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, was no longer so important.

No matter how important it is, it is a post-war thing!

Because he is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the marshal of Zhu who beat Dayuan into the Northern Yuan, he will never allow the Northern Barbarians to detain it again!

No, he doesn't care about whether it's you or you in Mao Xiang's mouth!

"No,"

"This kind of play, which basically relies on the consumption of long-range weapons, how can there be no distance javelin?"

"With the naked eye of the observer hand, you can fully see the range and distance?"

“.”

It was at this moment that Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized this problem.

After Mao Xiang heard this, he also propped his hands on the female wall, staring at the plain grassland in front of him with wide eyes.

According to their previous places, they would definitely use bows and arrows or crossbow beds, that is, three-bow strong crossbows, to fire javelins before starting the war, and mark the required range in advance.

Javelins come in a variety of forms, they can be rows of javelin arrows, or they can be single, javelin arrows painted in a conspicuous color in advance, or even a few shots to smash a few fresh pits.

Especially in this kind of grassland plain, where there is basically no reference in front, the distance from the javelin is particularly important.

But as far as they could see, apart from the natural plain meadows, there were only a bunch of groves in the east and a bunch of small forests in the west, and a few almost negligible streams.

As for the so-called distance javelin, it can be said that there is nothing at all!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang didn't know if they had ignored this crucial point, or if they had too much faith in the observer's ability to observe with the naked eye!

Either way, it's a huge mistake!

"General Chen"

After Zhu Yuanzhang realized this, he turned around with such a voice, but found that General Chen, who was the commander-in-chief of the defense of the East Gate, was not in this best command position.

"Here they are, here they are!"

At this moment, after the soldiers shouted out of instinct, they immediately became focused.

In just a moment, there was silence above and below the walls.

At the same time, the familiar feeling of 'pre-war tranquility' instantly filled the brains of Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang.

On the city wall, in the eyes of all those who were focused on the distance, the rolling sand and dust that had been attacking at a uniform speed before suddenly stopped!

At this moment, thousands of vultures suddenly flew over the battlefield, hovering or landing in the mountains on both sides.

For both sides of the world, they are all too familiar with this oppressive bird of prey.

The birds of prey, which live in war-prone places and eat the carcasses of large animals, already have their knowledge of war.

That is the land of war, that is the place where they are fed, and they must be there in advance, otherwise the other birds will eat the meat, and they will only gnaw on the flesh on the bones.

In the eyes of the vulture, which is still hovering in mid-air,

On the open plain four miles outside the city, the dust raised has basically settled.

The five thousand Northern Yuan cavalry in black armor, which were almost flat, were making final adjustments.

The first two rows of cavalry, both horses and cavalry, are taller than the back three rows!

Not only that, but they are all wearing armor, and the weapons in their hands are not the scimitars of light cavalry, but all of them are armed with maces or armor-piercing iron bones!

Two rows of heavy cavalry are responsible for breaking the formation, three rows of light cavalry are responsible for subsequent slashing, and finally 5,000 infantry are responsible for replenishing the sword and charging to kill!

The reason why they had to make the final adjustment four miles outside the city was only because although Meng Yuanma's endurance was good, the distance of the rapid charge was only more than three miles and less than four miles.

"Sons,"

"We are the descendants of Genghis Khan, and we are the clansmen of the Great Yuan Emperor!"

"Take back the dignity we have lost, take back the pastures we have lost!"

"Rush in, the women, the wealth, and the food inside are all yours!"

"Kill !! me"

A stout and burly cavalry general with a mace in his hand, after giving the final military order almost like a roar, he directly took the lead in the charge!

I ask for the support of the officials, and ask for the support of recommended tickets, monthly passes, and rewards, thank you!
