Chapter 226: Lord Ye is really a clumsy person, Zhu Yuanzhang remembers the crime of bullying the king, they are all hard bones!

"Don't look up, keep rushing forward!"

Sons are only catty. When Ulihan saw this scene, he immediately lowered his head and just tried his best to urge his horse to charge forward.

At the same time, he also ordered with red eyes and heartbreaking.

In fact, he also knew that at such a time, no matter how loud his voice was, no one would hear it, he was just giving orders to himself, just giving himself courage.

He had to embolden himself, and if he did, his people would follow suit.

Only if everyone does this, can they rush under the city walls!

And at this moment on the city wall,

Mao Xiang had already propped his hands on the female wall of the city wall, and his eyes were full of horror.

In his eyes, twenty shells of the second echelon also fell between the front row of horsemen at this moment.

He saw the wet earth flying, he saw the stumps and broken arms flying in the sky, he saw the blood of the flesh flying sideways, and he saw the overturned centaurs crashing into the centaurs behind them, and they also brought trampling injuries.

Immediately afterwards, the shells of the third, fourth, and fifth echelons also came to the ground and exploded!

The 20 shells of each echelon were nearly 50 paces closer than the shells of the previous echelon, and they always exploded on the same waterline.

Not only that, but also the front row of cavalry of the Northern Yuan Charging Cavalry was bombed!

The principle is very simple, the opponent is charging all the time, and the range of the cannons of each echelon is reduced by fifty paces!

Counting the speed of artillery and horses, this has the effect of always striking the enemy's front row cavalry!

"The elevation angles of the gun positions remain unchanged, and the second round of artillery bombardment against the enemy's infantry formations is prepared."

“.”

And at this very moment,

General Chen, the commander-in-chief of the East Gate Defense, who stood in the middle of the corridor on the third floor of the City Gate Tower, issued such a military order.

As the two ends observed the waving of the warrant flag, the cannon commander on the city wall began to give the same order to the gunner at the top of his throat after receiving the order.

And Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang, who were standing under the city tower, naturally understood what this meant, this was to temporarily give up fighting the enemy cavalry, and wait for the enemy infantry to come over, and then consume the infantry in the same way.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, the smoke had basically dissipated at this moment, and he only saw the Northern Yuan cavalry rushing out of the artillery array.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang had some shock in his eyes after seeing the Beiyuan cavalry who rushed out of the artillery array, as well as the traces of bombing behind them!

Because he saw that the total number of cavalry rushing out was nearly half, not to mention, there were hardly any heavy armor cavalry to be seen.

The heavy-armored cavalry that is still charging is less than a hundred!

Looking at the bombing marks behind them, the hundred black artillery craters above the green grass were very obvious, not to mention, they were basically smoking green smoke.

And the edges of these artillery craters are full of bombed corpses of centaurs, as well as many corpses of centaurs who have been trampled to death!

Of course, none of this is the point, the point is that the location of these battery craters is very regular.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately glanced back at the 'regular wavy line' composed of black cannon muzzles on the city wall, and then immediately looked at the regular position of the cannon pits with a comparative mentality!

The five gun craters form a diagonal line from far to near, and twenty such diagonal lines are neatly arranged there!

From his vertical perspective, the 100 shells were still on a horizontal line, and they were all about three zhang (ten meters) away!

Combined with what he had seen before, the result of the enemy's heavily armored cavalry basically being wiped out, he immediately understood the ingenuity of Ye Qing's tactics.

"We see, this is his 'matrix misalignment' artillery array!"

"Our previous way of playing, either all the guns have one range, and they can be killed in a line, or we will play a chessboard layout artillery array."

"And this way of his play can be used to charge the enemy's cavalry, and at the same time, he can also concentrate on staring at the consumption of their heavily armored cavalry."

"The charge was shelled all the way, even if you are lucky not to die, no matter how good the soldiers and horses are, you have to be scared!"

"Not only that, but those overturned soldiers and horses can also trip over the later soldiers and horses to the greatest extent, causing immeasurable stampede damage!"

"Wonderful!"

"This Ye Qing can not only make such a good cannon, but also a tactician?"

"Where did he get the face to say that he didn't lead a soldier?"

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned again, because in his opinion, Ye Qing really had never led a soldier.

In other words, he Ye Qing has only simulated the battlefield in his mind, and he only has a little experience in talking on paper, but his paper talk is essentially very different from Zhao Kuo's paper talk.

Zhao Kuo's paper talk is losing, and his Ye Qing's paper talk is not only a win, but also a tactical innovation, but also a model of tactical success.

At this moment, Mao Xiang suddenly spoke: "General Guo, I already know the beauty of Lord Ye's matrix dislocation artillery array. ”

"The beauty of this matrix misalignment artillery array is that it is played."

Zhu Yuanzhang just stared at him, and Mao Xiang immediately closed his mouth, because he knew that he was wrong.

He can see everything, how could the former Zhu Dashuai not see it!

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang just flashed a trace of anger between his eyebrows, because he thought of a joke.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, Ye Qing stood on the ridge and said sincerely: "I, Ye Qing, am just a clumsy person. ”

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly had a feeling of being played with as a monkey.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the more than 2,000 light cavalry who were charging and almost had almost no heavy armor cavalry, and looked at the Northern Yuan infantry who were suffering under artillery fire in the distance, and while gritting his back molars, he secretly said in his heart: "If you fucking say that you are a clumsy person, Lao Tzu will remember you for the 'crime of bullying the king'!" ”

"Clumsy?"

"If you have been groping on the battlefield for a few lifetimes to have the current skills, you can barely say that you are clumsy!"

"But you're not, you're just playing with Lao Tzu as a monkey, you're obviously talented and pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, you're just pretending to be a monster in front of Lao Tzu!"

“.”

Zhu Yuanzhang was really angry, so angry that he remembered the new word 'pretending to be forced' that he had just learned!

But then, the scene in front of him made him angry, and it can also be said that his attention was shifted from Ye Qing's body to these 'hard bones'!

In his eyes, the remaining more than 2,000 Beiyuan light cavalry were still charging, and those Beiyuan infantry who were only half of the bombed were also charging desperately.

The 'lucky one', who was still lying in the gap of the artillery fire just now, immediately stood up after the artillery fire stopped, and rushed forward by stepping on the corpses of his clansmen.

Not bad

Their cannons had reduced the 10,000-foot cavalry to only half of it, and had not yet destroyed almost all the heavily armored cavalry.

You must know that there is no heavy armor cavalry as the first row, even if they no longer block, they will definitely be able to break through the contradictory horse rejection formation under the city!

But they still wielded scimitars, still tried to maintain their formation, and still charged desperately!

"These Beiyuan soldiers are really tough!"

"It's all like this, and there is such courage, it's really a bit of a steppe wolf!"

"If they are not hard, they can't destroy Song, they are hard, we are harder!"

“.”

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the voices around him, and he also felt that this was the case.

Although he is an enemy, he Zhu Yuanzhang will never hesitate to praise the enemy.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that even if it was the end of the Yuan Dynasty, they would definitely not be soft!

The world only knows that Xu Da won the Northern Expedition, but they don't know what price the Northern Expedition army paid in it!

The reason why the Mengyuan cavalry founded by Genghis Khan is called the 'iron cavalry' is precisely because they are well-trained, hard-working, and not afraid of death!

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately remembered the lesson that Ye Qing had taught him.

Ye Qing once told him that the characteristic of the Northern Yuan soldiers was that they were 'defeated but not discouraged', and they were also like grass on the grassland, which was blown and reborn in the spring breeze.

The only way to completely subdue them is to find a way to unite them all, and then defeat them by a huge margin on the frontal battlefield.

The fight of one tribe in the east and one tribe in the west cannot be completely conquered!

The reason why it has been fighting for more than a thousand years is that it has only fought from the Xiongnu to the Turks and then to the Mengyuan, this is the reason!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded firmly.

It's just that if you want to achieve this strategic goal, it is absolutely impossible to rely on only these 20,000 Yanmen garrisons, and you have to wait for Xu Da's army.

Only Xu Da's army can appear after successfully circling it!

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the line of heaven and earth in the north, so hopeful, he immediately heard General Chen's order.

"All artillery, hurry up and adjust the minimum elevation angle, after the enemy comes on foot, fire freely, and bombard at will!"

"All bow beds, modified three-arrow slots, use armor-piercing arrows, aim at the enemy's cavalry, don't worry about the infantry!"

“.”

As soon as General Chen's voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately heard the mechanical sounds of various institutions on the city wall.

The gunner in front of a hundred cannons, skillfully operating the elevation adjustment mechanism!

The defenders on the side of the twenty crossbow beds (three-bow strong crossbows) are also skillfully changing the arrow troughs!

The arrows fired by the crossbow bed, with hard wood as the shaft and iron as the feather, are similar to javelins, known as 'one gun and three swords and arrows', which can accurately kill enemy generals from a long distance, and the effective range can reach more than 900 steps (1500 meters).

Fired in a row of dislocations within a distance of 400 paces, it can also be directly nailed into the city wall, and soldiers who can light up their kung fu can rely on these javelin-like giant arrows to directly attack the city wall.

Therefore, it is named 'stepping arrow'!

During the Sui, Tang and Song dynasties, this kind of bow and crossbow bed was the main long-range weapon on the battlefield!

It is precisely because Ye Qing has seen the miraculous effect of this weapon that everyone abandoned this weapon in the Ming Dynasty, and modified it to make it a battlefield weapon again!

Soon, the slot that could only be equipped with one large treadmill was removed and replaced with one that could hold three arrows.

The length and thickness of these arrows are only half the length of large treadmill arrows, but they can still shoot through a centaur with half the range.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that this was not Ye Qing's combat order, but the on-the-spot performance of the commander-in-chief.

Originally!

The commander order is an outline, and the real battle has to rely on the on-site generals!

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't think it was unusual for this kind of play, he just wanted to go to the battle position of the bow bed to see it now.

Because the 'interception of the giant arrow' that he couldn't figure out, he had to fire it from a crossbow bed!.

I ask the officials to follow up on the support, and ask for the support of recommended tickets and monthly passes, thank you!
