Chapter 165

"It's really hard to fight, but it's ......"

Sun Chengzong didn't hurriedly ask Cheng Shijie what was the matter.

Cheng Shijie groaned: "However, victory must belong to us." ”

Sun Chengzong shook his head: "Don't be careless! ”

"Teacher!"

Cheng Shijie pointed in the direction of the artillery unit of the Ning Navy and said with a smile: "After the God of War was invented, the barbaric force of the nomads was useless. ”

"Be careful of Huang Taiji, this person has a bad stomach, you can be careful!"

"Teacher, don't worry, Huang Taiji's tricks are useless to me!"

Sun Chengzong feels that Cheng Shijie's self-confidence is too strong, of course, this is not a bad thing, because what Daming just lacks is Cheng Shijie's self-confidence.

Cheng Shijie and Sun Chengzong didn't stay on the roof terrace of the RV for too long, after all, it was too cold up there.

Return to the Chinese military headquarters of the Ning Navy.

Luo, who was dressed in men's clothes, hurriedly brought the tea soup to the table.

Sun Chengzong glanced at Luo, and with just one glance, his brows furrowed slightly.

Cheng Shijie didn't know what kind of contradiction was between the Luo family and Sun Zhixi, anyway, seeing Sun Chengzong coming, the Luo family was not less courteous in front of Cheng Shijie.

Of course, Luo thought that Sun Chengzong would be furious.

However, the pattern of the Luo family is too small, Sun Chengzong did not mention why the Luo family appeared next to Cheng Shijie, and he didn't even ask Sun Zhilan, as if he didn't see the Luo family.

After the power was turned on, Cheng Shijie took the wireless microphone and once again climbed the terrace of the horse-drawn RV of the Chinese military headquarters.

Cheng Shijie looked at the formation of the Ning Navy, from the left wing army and the forward army, the Ning Navy officers and soldiers are all in formation, spears are like forests, and swords are like walls, as for the appearance of the Dongjiang Army of the right wing army, it is not a little worse than the Ning Navy.

Cheng Shijie looked at his troops, and a sense of pride arose in his heart, this is the unit he pulled out with a fist and a kick with great effort! This is the army he fed with strict military discipline, brutal training and generous treatment! They may not be able to defeat an enemy who is too strong, but they will not be afraid of any enemy!

"I'm Cheng Shijie!"

With the sound of these five words sounding like thunder, all the generals and soldiers invariably looked in the direction of the Chinese army, ordinary soldiers may not have a chance, but the sentry commander and the officers at the level of 100 generals all have binoculars produced in southern Liaoning, and generals at the level of generals and thousands of generals can have binoculars from later generations.

As Cheng Shijie's voice sounded, more than 50,000 soldiers held their breath, and the entire battlefield could be heard.

"In the winter of last year, Ben Shuai led the officers and soldiers of the Ning Navy and their families to come to southern Liaoning, what is the southern Liaoning we came to? You should still have the impression that it can be described in eight words, thousands of miles of red land, white bones and wild wilderness. ”

Cheng Shijie continued: "The commander organized the military and civilians to brave the cold, digging nests, digging ditches, building cities, and reclaiming wasteland, and in April and May, we also encountered a rare drought in southern Liaoning, and there was no heavy rain for two months. ”

To improve morale before the war, Sun Chengzong thought that Cheng Shijie would say something inspiring, but he instead pulled things around like a family routine.

"This year, we have harvested a total of 7.29 million stone of wheat, 10.52 million jin of cotton, 2.8 million tons of sweet potatoes, 2.8 million tons of potatoes, 96,000 stone of rapeseed, and 155,000 stone of sugar beet in southern Liaoning......

As Cheng Shijie reported a number, the soldiers below were very excited, there is no doubt that southern Liaoning has obtained a bumper harvest, but no one knows how much grain has been harvested in southern Liaoning. But I can't imagine that the harvest will be so huge! So much food, enough to eat the whole of Nanyang for several years! In ancient times, peasants worked very hard, and they often had to harvest three consecutive years before they could save a year's surplus grain, and once they encountered floods, droughts, locust plagues, and hailstorms, and a large reduction in grain production, there would be a famine. Can they not be happy when they hear that so much grain has been harvested?

In fact, a total of 5.27 million mu of newly reclaimed land in southern Liaoning and more than 790,000 mu of private land have not been reclaimed.

Cheng Shijie continued: "You also know that many people have migrated from Guannei this year, more than 670,000 people, and now our southern Liaoning has officially exceeded one million people, and Ben Shuai originally planned to reclaim 9 million acres of land next year, so that your family, all of them can have no worries about food and clothing, even if you are killed in battle and injured, your children can live a prosperous life with this inheritance." But ......"

Cheng Shijie's voice raised an octave: "But Jiannu came, naturally they didn't come to make friends with us, they were carrying knives and guns, they wanted to snatch the fields we had worked so hard to cultivate, they wanted to rob us of the grain we had harvested with great difficulty, and robbed your sisters, wives and daughters!" ”

Cheng Shijie's words, the breathing of the Ning Navy soldiers and the Dongjiang Army soldiers suddenly became heavy, and red light burst out in their eyes. Originally, Jiannu came to the door, and they were already faceless enough, but now they heard that Jiannu came to rob their fields, food, wives and children, and their eyes were red.

The Han people are a very modest and introverted nation, but this nation has a bottom line, which can also be said to be an unspoken rule.

Jiannu came over and wanted to rob them of their food, wife and children, can this be endured? It is absolutely intolerable!

In southern Liaoning, 87 percent of the land is collectively owned, that is, it belongs to the military group of the Ning Navy, but 13 percent of the land belongs to private individuals, and these people are either the pension fields assigned to the martyrs' families, or the officers and men of the Ning Navy are assigned to the military fields, and most of the military merit fields.

In this case, the officers and men of the Ning Navy will definitely not retreat, they have just eaten a few days to eat? Willing to go back in time?

Especially those who have been starved would rather die than be starved again.

Cheng Shijie roared angrily: "You say, what should I do!? ”

The soldiers of the Ning Navy took the lead in raising their arms and roaring like thunder: "Kill them all!! ”

"In order to develop southern Liaoning, Ben Shuai smashed into his own family, and in this battle, Ben Shuai will not take a step back!"

Admiral Ning's face turned red, and he roared out in his lungs: "I will not retreat!! ”

"Actually, you don't have to be afraid of them building slaves, don't be intimidated by their false reputation! Our armor is stronger than theirs, our swords and guns are sharper than theirs, and behind us, there are countless people who are fully supporting us, looking forward to the news of victory! ”

Cheng Shijie slowly walked down the terrace of the RV and rode a tall black war horse: "Soldiers, you follow my battle flag, I will charge ahead, lead you to press them to the end, break them, annihilate them, crush them, until the army is broken and killed, until their corpses are covered with the battlefield......"

At this time, the enraged Huang Taiji ordered the artillery to be fired.

The artillery unit of the Han army under the command of Bao Chengxian and Sun Youguang began to fire, and hundreds of artillery pieces made a roaring sound, and with the smoke of gunpowder, more than 100 solid shells broke through the air and fell into the phalanx of the Ning Navy, smashing out a bloody alley, and the nearest cannon fell less than 30 meters away from Cheng Shijie, splashing a ball of dirt, scaring Sun Chengzong into a cold sweat.

If Cheng Shijie is accidentally shot, then there is no need to fight this battle, and Jiannu will definitely win.

However, Cheng Shijie was unmoved, he deliberately used his own way to boost morale, morale is one thing and the other rises, the soldiers of the Ning Navy, the Dongjiang Army and the Guanning Army are raised, and the morale of Jiannu will inevitably fall.

Cheng Shijie turned off the microphone and turned on the walkie-talkie: "Yuan Shiliang, did you find their artillery position?" ”

"Back to the big handsome, three places have been found!"

"Very good, fire and blow their artillery to pieces!"

Yuan Shiliang was not commanding nearly 280 Franc machine guns at this time, but only 24 24 times the diameter of the 3-inch guns, the reason why the caliber of this artillery used 3 inches, that is, 94.5 millimeters, Cheng Shijie's real intention was to promote the Ming system to the world.

Instead of adopting the British or Spanish system, in this era, the empire on which the sun never sets in the world was not Great Britain, but the Spanish Empire, and it was not until after the decline of the Dutch sea grooms that it was the turn of Great Britain to become the world hegemon.

With Cheng Shijie's order, in front of the artillery position, the artillery commander, that is, Yuan Shiliang, who enjoyed the treatment of the thousand generals, held a walkie-talkie in his right hand, hung a telescope on his chest, raised his right fist, drew a semicircle, and then waved forward heavily, and the 24 artillery invariably pulled the fire rope.

The cannon bolt hit the bottom fire of the cannonball, detonating the red phosphorus, which in turn detonated the fire wool as an explosive, only to hear a roar like rolling thunder, the howl of the cannonball tearing the air was like tearing silk cloth, making people's hair stand on end, and in the eruption of flames, twenty-one cannonballs roared towards the rear Jiannu phalanx, and the momentum was ten times more fierce than the volley of the Jiannu artillery just now!

This is the role of the system of the Ning Navy, when the fire gun is emitted, the design concept is moved to the thunderbolt, and from the thunderbolt to the artillery.

Of course, the primer of red phosphorus as a combustion, is a bit poor, and three of the guns did not fire, but the impact is not great, only the primer part of the shell needs to be removed, and new red phosphorus can be installed, which can continue to be fired.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

This is the first time that the flowering cannonballs are fighting, and at the moment when the flowering cannonballs land, the warring parties see a bloody picture that they have never seen in their lives, and large groups of orange fireballs tumble up from the middle of the Jiannu artillery position, and the Jiannu artillery is thrown high like leaves, and the cracked limbs and broken arms fall like raindrops, smashing on the living people, popping.

The hot, sharp shrapnel radiated layer by layer in all directions, easily shooting through the armor of the Jiannu soldiers, tearing their bodies, and letting the internal organs and dirty blood and mud flow out of the terrifying wounds! Every time a shell falls, there are a large number of casualties, like a slaughterhouse.

In particular, the three-inch 94.5-millimeter shells, each weighing 17 catties, of which the charge was four and a half catties, were not black powder, but nitrocellulose cotton with greater power.

In terms of explosion power, nitrocellulose is even more powerful than TNT, but this thing is not easy to preserve, if you let Ning Haijun's gunpowder experts explore it themselves, God knows how long it will take, Cheng Shijie searched on Baidu for nitrocellulose passivator, which is the most common ether.

In this way, nitrocellulose can actually be called smokeless gunpowder, four and a half pounds of smokeless gunpowder, the power of the explosion is not small, a shot over, it is good to miss, if it is accurate, you have to blow up half a platoon.

In the era of cold weapons, most of them were lined up in a dense array, so the killing effect was better, and if you were lucky, it would not be a problem to kill a platoon.

Both Jiannu and the generals of the Ning Navy, including Sun Chengzong himself, were stunned by the power of this three-inch cannon.

Cheng Shijie smiled proudly: "Compared with my cannon, what kind of red-clothed cannon, what kind of tiger squat cannon, what kind of Franc machine is a fart?" This is the true god of war! ”

Sun Chengzong somewhat understood Cheng Shijie's confidence, this new gunpowder not only does not use open flames to directly ignite the fuse, but just pull the rope, especially there is no need to clean the barrel, after a cannon is fired, another shell is stuffed in, close the bolt, and fire directly.

Huang Taiji stood too high, so he naturally saw it very clearly, and in just one round of shelling, the artillery he had managed to get was muted by nearly one-third, and the shells of several artillery pieces were all fired in one shot.

In particular, a cannonball that entered the Jiannu cavalry formation, one shot went down, killing twenty-five people, and thirteen people were injured, this group of Belle Lords couldn't help but be shocked!

Hauge cried out, "What kind of cannon is this?" Why has it never been seen in the military? ”

Mang Gurtai looked at Yue Tuo: "Like a flying thunder cannon?" ”

Yue Tuo shook his head and said, "This is definitely not a flying thunder cannon!" The flying thunder cannon can't hit so far! ”

Ning Navy's flying thunder cannon is to cooperate with the barbed wire fence defense battle, Jiannu many people have seen this kind of scared people not pay for their lives, a cannon down, then absolutely shake the mountain, of course, this kind of flying thunder cannon range is too close, as long as it is far away from the Ming army's barbed wire, they have no threat.

"Order the artillery, knock out the artillery of the Ming army!"

"Yes!"

It's a pity that just as Jiannu's artillery was still nervously cleaning the chamber, the artillery position of the Ning Navy rose up with a large field of smoke and fire, and the second round of salvo fire began.

This time, there was no dumb fire, and all twenty-four artillery shells were successfully fired, and at this time, Jiannu's artillery had just cleared the chambers, and there were still a few guns that had not been cleaned up.

Huang Taiji lost his voice and said: "The artillery of the Ming army, this rate of fire is ......"

Huang Taiji's words were drowned out by the sound of Ning's naval artillery, and when the second row of shells fell, several no-man's lands were opened in the infantry phalanx of Houjin, and all the people within the killing radius were turned into broken corpses or wounded soldiers with missing arms and legs.

The soldiers of this era did not even understand the common sense of lying down to avoid shelling, so they stood upright, which naturally became the best target, making the artillery bombardment effect of the Ming army excellent, and a large number of casualties were killed and wounded in any shot.

The rain of blood sprayed, the broken flesh and limbs flying in the sky, the wounded soldiers who were blown up and fell to the ground in a pool of blood and wailed, all this made people frightened, only two rounds of salvos, Jiannu's artillery was almost abolished, there was no way, the power of the three-inch cannon was actually far less than what Huang Taiji saw, but the key was that the gunpowder barrels on the Jiannu artillery position were detonated one after another......

Although the artillery did not attack Jiannu's infantry and cavalry phalanx, however, when they saw the artillery of the Ning Navy, they began to be confused, and shock and fear swept across the battlefield, making them cold in their hands and feet, and no one could not be afraid of the god of war who showed his fangs!

As the saying goes, the arsenic of the enemy is my honey.

In the eyes of the Ming army, this bloody picture is simply enjoyment.

Sun Chengzong watched without blinking with his binoculars, watching the cannonballs whistling out, watching the Jiannu army flying flesh and blood, and muttered: "No wonder Beiping dares to fight Jiannu, it turns out that he has such a sharp weapon in his hand!" ”

Zu Dabi, who was standing in front of the outermost Guanning Army cavalry formation, glanced at Zu Dale.

"Second brother, if you don't go, I'll go, even if we give up my face, we have to buy some of these artillery!"

Zu Dabi will never forget that on the banks of the Daling River, the elite of the Zujia army was surrounded by Jiannu, starved to death and dizzy, and then drowned by the Jiannu cavalry that came like a tide.

The nearly 20,000 officers who died in the Battle of Daling River had eight or nine thousand descendants of the ancestral army, including his nephew and younger brother.

"Cheng Shuai, the last general ......"

Zu Dabi's gaze has been on the artillery of the Ning Navy and has not left: "The last general ......"

Cheng Shijie smiled: "Do you want to buy my artillery?" ”

"Who doesn't want to buy such a powerful weapon!"

Cheng Shijie sighed and said: "It's a bit expensive, you can also see, I only cast twenty-four doors myself!" ”

"How much does it cost?"

Cheng Shijie said with a wry smile: "Don't worry, listen to me, this cannon is not successful, first of all, this cannon barrel, only with more than 100 rounds, after a battle, it is time to change the barrel, and the most expensive part of this cannon is the barrel!" ”

The more Cheng Shijie said this, the more anxious Zu Dabi became: "How much is it!" ”

"It takes seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver for one door!"

Cheng Shijie actually didn't want to sell the artillery to Guan Ningjun, so he directly increased the cost price by more than 30 times and reported it to Zu Dabi, in fact, this one, including two spare barrels, plus fifty shells, the total ex-factory price was 2,500 taels of silver.

"Then 80,000 taels of silver for one door, and our Guan Ning Army wants twenty doors!"

Zu Dabi knows very well that the army is the foundation of the ancestral family, in fact, as early as the spring, when Zu Dashou ransomed more than 8,000 prisoners from Cheng Shijie, he began to copy Cheng Shijie's homework.

Of course, Zu Dashou only redistributed the military land he annexed to his own family soldiers, and each person only had thirty acres, and ordinary Guanning soldiers had no land, even so, Zu Dashou's control over the Guanning Army was significantly enhanced.

Zu Dabi actually can't be the master of Zu Dashou, but he knows very well that if he doesn't buy this kind of artillery, Zu Dashou will kick him to death when he goes back.

Huang Long looked at Zu Dabi to buy Cheng Shijie's artillery, he also wanted to buy it, but unfortunately, he had no money in his hand, and he didn't have a daughter to give to Cheng Shijie as a little wife.

Although I was excited, I couldn't act, so I could only do it in a hurry.

Huang Taiji didn't care about studying why Ning Haijun's artillery suddenly had such terrifying lethality, he only knew that he had to suppress the artillery fire of Ning Haijun's artillery, otherwise this battle would not be able to be fought!

Huang Taiji roared angrily at the Chong herald: "You hurry up, pass on the order of the Khan, let Bao Chengxian and Sun Youguang's artillery fire at the artillery of the Ming army, if you miss it again......"

While he was talking, a continuous and sharp artillery sound came again, and the third round of artillery bombardment of the Ning Navy began, and the Ming army's artillery position suddenly rose up a large cloud of white smoke, and twenty-four flowering shells smashed overwhelmingly towards the artillery position of Jiannu.

These shells made Huang Taiji feel cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his hairs stood on end: "The artillery is over!" ”

Just as Huang Taiji guessed, at this time, the Jiannu artillery saw Ning Haijun's shells flying again, and threw down the cannon with a wild scream and ran, but unfortunately it was too late, the flowering shells fell from the sky, and the explosion points were almost connected, followed by a thunderous explosion, and many Jiannu gunners were lifted into the air together with their cannons!

"Yue Tuo!"

"The minions are here!"

Huang Taiji pointed to the artillery position of the Ning Navy, and his hands began to tremble a little: "After taking the artillery position of the Ming army, you can't, you must not let the artillery of the Ming army fire a single shell!" ”

Yue Tuo actually understands that the current situation in Dajin is very bad, if you can't kill the artillery positions of the Ming army, there is no way to fight this battle, although the artillery so far, the number of people who have killed and injured Jiannu is not much, and the biggest losses are the cannon fodder of the Han army.

But the problem is that he can clearly feel that the Jurchen warriors are afraid of the artillery of the Ming army, and he can see that the Jurchen warriors around him are frightened and their faces are like earth, and they are about to go crazy.

"Minion Command!"

Huang Taiji didn't know that this was actually a gift from Cheng Shijie.

No matter what strategy they use, they defeated Huang Taiji or Jiannu, Jiannu will not be convinced, just like Azig's defeat at Jinshi Mountain, they will not be convinced.

In the face of absolute strength, what strategy, what strategy and tactics, what conspiracies and tricks, all are scum, and the supremacy of firepower and complete suppression is the king.

Cheng Shijie's principle is actually the principle of the flower planters in later generations, the poor are interspersed with roundabouts, and the rich are carpet bombed. The current new rear-loading smoothbore gun is very expensive, and every shell is a BMW.

The cost of twenty taels of silver is not something that anyone can afford.

However, as Cheng Shijie's pockets bulged, he can afford to play now, even if it is twenty taels of silver per cannonball, he can use the cannonball to bury Jiannu.

In later generations, the flower planter likes to play with firepower, and the majestic ghost animal fighting style is his favorite, and if you can't kill you, you will be scared to death!
