Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

As for things like muskets, although the lethality is not small, the shooting speed is slow, and the reloading is troublesome. Unless it is a three-stage or even four-stage attack, this thing is not as lethal as a bow and arrow.

Besides, with such a short distance, even if they want to play three-stage strike, I'm afraid they don't have that much time to prepare for it!

With a sinister grin, and after looking at each other with Seryozha and Carpenter, Troff rushed towards the infantry with his men.

Indeed, as Troff expected, these good families brought by Meng Xianglin did use the three-stage attack, but it was different from the traditional three-stage attack. The first row simply lay on the ground and did not get up. However, the second row has always taken the kneeling posture and has not changed, and the third row has always taken the standing posture and has not changed.

There was no such problem as Troff imagined that the loading was too slow, and the sound of the musket almost never stopped from the moment it sounded.

Three hundred Ming infantry attacked nearly 3000 Cossack cavalry, and the results were impressive.

As soon as the gunshot sounded, the cavalry in the first row found that they had lost control of their horses, and were thrown into the air by the horses. Some lucky ones were hit by musket bullets just before they landed.

The reason why it is said that the lucky ones who were hit by the musket is because they are so lucky compared with those unlucky ones who were not hit by the musket - most of the people who were not hit by the musket were followed behind His horse was trampled to death.

After two or three rows of cavalry fell to the ground, the Cossack cavalry behind lost the opportunity to increase the speed of their horses. The horses and comrades who suffered heavy casualties in front blocked the way, making the whole road extremely difficult to walk, even on flat ground. not on.

As for retreating, no one had the idea of ​​retreating in their hearts.

The cavalry around two people wanted to retreat, which was basically equivalent to handing over their backs to the Tatar musketeers on the opposite side. Apart from death, they were still dead, and there would be no second possibility at all.

Troff died, and Seryozha and Carpenter, who were stuck behind and couldn't move forward, suddenly lost the courage to fight and die together.

Troff could neither realize the night attack planned at the beginning, nor did he bring any casualties to Meng Xianglin's killers. Instead, he died silently under an inconspicuous bullet.

Even if the two of us want to continue charging with these Cossack cavalry, will there be a second possibility besides death?Obviously, there is no second possibility at all.

The words of surrender were circling in the throats of the two, but neither of them wanted to say it first, and the atmosphere froze for a while.

If it was in normal times, it would not be a big deal if the atmosphere froze, but now it was on the battlefield, and every minute and every second, former companions died under the guns of the Tatars.

Seryozha couldn't hold it back in the end, and sighed: "Announce my order, put down your weapons, dismount and surrender!"

Carpenter quickly passed on Seryozha's order, and the remaining Cossack cavalry also carried out Seryozha's order very well. After turning over, they quickly raised their weapons above their heads, indicating that they had given up. Resisted, ready to surrender.

Wan Yanli twitched her lips and said, "I thought you were too stubborn, but now you can't hold it anymore?"

Meng Xianglin sighed and said: "I remember that when I was studying in the lecture hall, the instructor once talked about some historical cases, which were very interesting.

In history, once the casualties of many armies exceed 20.00%, they will basically be defeated, and when the casualties exceed [-]%, they will basically be defeated.

In fact, even my guard in Daming is the same.

The only time when the casualties were heavy, with a casualty rate of more than 40.00%, was when His Majesty fought Lin Dan Khan on the frontal battlefield when His Majesty conquered Lin Dan Khan.

But that encounter didn't have any reference value, because His Majesty was there, and he took the lead in charging, which was invaluable in boosting morale.

In fact, even the instructors in the martial arts hall said that if other generals were to take command, the outcome of that encounter would likely be a major defeat.

Including the later battles that His Majesty personally participated in, such as the battle at Leshi Grassland, the reason was the same, and there was no reference value.

As for other wars, because I have never suffered such a large number of casualties, there is no way to judge where the limit of my Daming Guard's endurance is.

From this point of view, it can only be said that God bless Daming, otherwise, if it is replaced by other generals, Daming's elite may be folded in, which will greatly damage his vitality.

The casualty rate of these barbarians in front of them is not only 2000%, more than 500 people rushed in and [-] people died, can they still hold on?

Especially now that their commander has ordered to surrender, even if Zhao Kuo is resurrected, there is no way to lead them into battle again. "

Wan Yanli nodded and said: "I hope that Daming will never know where the bottom line is!"

Meng Xianglin nodded in the same way: "Although I am also curious, I also don't want to know the limit. In other words, never have such a chance to test the limit, and it is best not to have it in the future."

Wan Yanli patted Meng Xianglin's shoulder and said, "There probably won't be any more. Let's catch all the barbarians, and the military government will kill them all. Our descendants will never have to face this problem."

Meng Xianglin suddenly laughed at himself and said, "Without the enemy, can't our own people become enemies? Things like war will never disappear, it just depends on who the enemy is."

Wan Yanli was stunned for a while before suddenly laughing and said: "Didn't your majesty say that the meat always rots in the pot, even if one day your own people beat your own people, it won't be like this now, it's better than that." Let's be strong."

The battlefield was quiet at this moment, and Wan Yanli stopped trying to persuade Meng Xianglin, but just picked up the whistle and started blowing again.

8Chapter 17 True Disorganization and Discipline

A complete country that does not have a deep-boiled oil system always responds quickly to aggression, except for the removal of mites.

Mite Qing is based on the fact that he does not feel distressed when he sells his father's land, and that he measures China's material strength to win the favor of all countries, or that he who dares to violate the Qing Dynasty will pay for it even if he is far away, so he is very calm. It's just that I can't hold it on my son's face.

Tsarist Russia is not like a mite, and Alexei I Mikhailovich is not like that old lady, who after being slapped in the face so blatantly, even though she knew she couldn't beat her, she still chose to fight back.

The most important thing is that the current situation has forced Mikhailovich to fight back, even if Mikhailovich is unwilling to confront Daming now.

In fact, it is not a good thing for the whole of Tsarist Russia to have a wave of confrontation with Ming now, and even Patriarch Nikon, who wants to use theocracy to suppress the monarchy, knows it well.

Therefore, in this matter, Nikon rarely stood by Mikhailovich's side, and even persuaded Mikhailovich many times, persuading him to endure the calm for a while.

Mikhailovich also wanted to endure, but what about the consequences?

If a country has a will, then the common aspirations of all the people in the country, from the court to the common people, are the most direct manifestation of a country's will.

When the common people at the bottom and the officials in the court were extremely disappointed with the king, the country basically came to an end, just like after Mi Qing completely lost the hearts of the people, the speed of collapse was extremely fast, and the court at that time was still very weak. rich!

It has to be said that Mite Qing did all kinds of coquettish operations, planting opium on its own land and even selling it domestically and exporting it later. Although the folks were forced to die, the imperial court was very rich. Compared with the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was completely two the opposite extreme.

Now Mikhailovich does not dare to bear it. Once he swallows his anger, whether there is money in the treasury is secondary. The influence of the people alone is enough to affect his own rule.

After coming to the Kremlin again, Nikon's attitude was still as firm as ever: "Now is definitely not a good time to have a conflict with the Ming Empire!

From my personal point of view, it’s okay to give up those meaningless lands in the Far East to them. Since those damn Cossacks are looking for death, let them die.

Once there is a full-scale war with the Ming Empire, whether it will affect the empire's European strategy is secondary. The most important thing is that the entire empire will face an all-out attack from the Ming Empire! "

Mikhailovich nodded and said: "As you said, as long as we fight back, we will face an all-out attack from that monster of the Ming Empire.

But what if we don't fight back?Will they stop encroaching on our land and looting our civilians?What would the common people of the entire empire think? "

Nikon shook his head and said: "It's never important what the common people think, you think too highly of the role of the common people. In fact, not all the common people in any country are the same as the common people of the Ming Empire, and they don't care about these things.

What you are worried about is that this retreat will cause the civilians of the empire to lose their confidence and trust in the empire, but you have to understand that once the full-scale war starts, it is okay if we can win, but what if we fail?

Once it fails, what we lose is not only the confidence and trust of the common people, not just the little land in the Far East, but the entire Tsarist Russia.

From the previous foreign wars of the monster of the Ming Empire, we can find that they devoured the land and population they wanted as if they would never have enough to eat, and it is the same this time.

If we give them a chance, like those idiots in England, the Ming Empire will happily rush up and tear up and swallow the entire Tsarist Russia.

If we avoid them for a while, even if the civilians are dissatisfied, it will only be dissatisfied, and it will not actually affect anything, and the nobles will not make other things.
