Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Chapter 818 The Carpenter Emperor 73

Nu/Erhachi got the news that the [-] Xianglan Banner soldiers who went to besiege Liaoyang City, and the [-] reinforcements he sent later were all killed by the Daming artillery. He shook a few times to avoid falling.His person was supported by others, but the fear he had never felt in his heart almost immediately overwhelmed his determination.

how can that be possible?Daming's artillery killed nearly ten thousand soldiers in one encounter.

He didn't want to believe it and couldn't believe it.

After cross-examining several people who escaped from Shenyang, he got the same answer.

A serious problem was before him, the three ministers, and the three Baylors.

Does Daming really have such powerful firepower?

If it is true, what should Daikin do now!

Retire?Those Mongolian tribes that had just conquered and North Korea that had just succumbed were likely to get out of control, and even go to Daming's side and join forces with Daming to bring Dajin back to the predicament of being surrounded by enemies on all sides.

In this winter when there is a shortage of salt and iron, Daikin, who has fought for so long and lost so many warriors, has not gained anything. The consequences are terrible.It's so scary that those present here dare not think about it, and are unwilling to face it.

But can retreating troops escape the crisis?

difficult!

Because they are no longer the original Jurchens who live in no fixed place and live in the north of the deep mountains and old forests, who can hide their whereabouts.

Daming was able to mobilize an army of [-] to besiege Dajin in Sarhu. After so many soldiers died, even though Xiong Tingbi was huddled in Shenyang City, he went to Fushun City to demonstrate to take back Fushun the year before last.Daming regained his composure, and would definitely seek revenge on the Jurchens.

Why not retreat?

Once the defenders of Shenyang City saw the firepower of the Daming reinforcements so powerful, how could they stay in the city and not come out.Under the front and back attack, Jurchen's advantage of fast movement is restrained, and she will be passively beaten.

Therefore, after discussing with these confidants, Nu/Erhachi decided to send [-] cavalry to attack the Ming army at night regardless of the pain of losing his son.

"In my opinion, these Ming troops will not enter Liaoyang City. They should come directly to Shenyang. The open terrain between Liaoshen and Shenyang can give full play to the advantages of my eight-banner cavalry galloping freely. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have always been slack. During the day, they had just won the victory, and at night they would definitely relax. Unexpectedly, we would rush to attack at night.

Even if they become alert, they will not be able to face our cavalry raiders in a hurry.We want to take advantage of the night, when Daming's gunners are all blind, kick Daming's camp, defeat the reinforcements in one go, get their thousand artillery pieces and food, and then attack Shenyang. "

The reason why Ming soldiers are called blind is because most of them suffer from "night blindness".Among the nutritionally deficient Ming soldiers, this was an unsolvable problem.

Nu/Erhachi's idea is to maximize the advantages of the Jurchen Bannermen, while at the same time clearly displaying the disadvantages of the Ming army.Even if the Ming army had more artillery, it could not solve the poor eyesight of soldiers at night.But he didn't know Zhu Youxiao's training requirements for artillerymen of the Ming army. Once a cannon needs to be fired but the target in front of him cannot be seen clearly, he should first blast between 350 feet and [-] feet, and then he can rely on the fire of the first shell. See where the enemy is.

What is the ten taels of silver for a cannonball during a war? The value of killing a Jian slave is far more than ten taels.

And this distance of [-] zhang is the life and death line of Ming Dynasty. If Jiannu is allowed to cross this line, within a breath, they can shoot arrows that can reach the soldiers of the Ming army with the speed of their horses.

As for the life-and-death line of three hundred feet, the gunners knew that there was an invisible horse-repelling barrier for the Jiannu cavalry, and that was why they could operate the artillery with peace of mind.

The square steel cone is the peace of mind of all soldiers in the Ming Dynasty expedition.

Those are the four-edged steel cones, Zhu Youxiao's good assistant in persuading the British government to allow him to lead the army.Moreover, the British government put pressure on the emperor through the cabinet and six ministers, and the four-sided steel cone equipped was five times that of Zhu Youxiao's plan.He also told the general soldiers, Marquis of Taining, and Duke Ding's sons who followed him to guard these steel cones, and it is best to take back as much as they use every time.Once the shortage exceeds the limit, it is necessary to send a letter to the imperial court urgently, so that the craftsmen can quickly make up.

The UK's official shortfall is [-] pieces.But it made several general soldiers and Taining Hou laugh bitterly.But they also understand that the British Duke is afraid that the emperor will lose.Everyone can see the benefits of the imperial conquest, and everyone can understand the disadvantages. Once something happens to the emperor, they will pay for it with their lives.

So every day the square pyramids are scattered, and they have to be taken back. It is completely in accordance with the British Duke's instructions.

As for the son of the British prince, he was reminded by the British prince every day before the expedition, reminding him that these life-saving steel cones must be installed before the camp and before the war. If the emperor is lost, the British government will suffer a lot.

He read so much about his son that his ears were about to give birth to a child, and he wished that the army would move out immediately, so as to escape his father's "curse".

□□After Ha Chi made up his mind, he immediately sent out his cavalry to investigate the garrison of the Ming soldiers. The distance of tens of miles was really nothing to the Jurchen Jianma.Not long after getting up, the camping location of Ming soldiers was reported to Nu/Erhachi.

The [-] soldiers who had prepared to attack the Jurchen at night immediately rushed towards the Ming army's camp under the leadership of Dabeile Daishan and following the guidance of the sentry.Ten miles away from the camp, everyone got off their horses, wrapped the hooves of the horses in layers of animal skins, and led the horses. They held a piece of the horse and chewed it, trying not to make any noise before approaching Mingying.

Dabeile Daishan is the second son of Nu/Erhachi. In order to defeat Ming's reinforcements at one time, he divided half of the 3 people when he was a thousand feet away from the Ming army, and kept half of the front for the main attack. The other three sides each used 5000 With the help of others, they launched an attack together, trying to cause panic among the Ming soldiers.

It's a pity that they didn't take into account the unexpected fact that Daming had an emperor, Zhu Youxiao.

The sneak attack became a blind attack after repeated training by the gunners of the Ming army.

3 people were basically buried under the artillery of Daming.

Nu/Erhachi did not attack Shenyang City on time this day, and he was waiting for news of the attack on the camp.

But the soldiers waiting on the top of Shenyang City were strangely restless.They were suppressed and beaten by Jiannu for more than two months. I don’t know how many times they fought against Jiannu at the top of the city. I don’t know how many comrades died, and how many brothers and sisters were injured. People, including some yamen servants and government soldiers, were all incorporated into the army to undertake the corresponding work of the auxiliary soldiers, and the auxiliary soldiers were transferred to the normal sequence of soldiers. Was conscripted to the wounded barracks for nursing.

The fierce battle that lasted for several days had a short pause, which not only did not relax the defenders of Shenyang City, some soldiers even muttered anxiously, "Why don't you come, why don't you come."

It can be seen how fragile his taut psychology is.

Xiong Tingbi's already skinny cheeks were almost sunken, his lips were dry, and his eyes were puffy, but the light in his eyes was so overwhelming that no one dared to look at him.

"Meng Tai, what do you think happened to Jiannu today?"

After Xiong Tingbi patrolled around the city wall, he went back to patrol the yamen to find Zhou Yongchun.He was tense in front of others, but he could relax a little in front of Wang An and Zhou Yongchun, but his slumped shoulders and back made Wang An and Zou Yongchun respect him even more.

"I guess there's something wrong."

Zhou Yongchun couldn't care less about such a question, so he answered Xiong Tingbi casually.The ghost knows why Jiannu didn't attack the city today.

"Perhaps it's because there's not enough food and grass, so we have to evacuate." Wang An tried his best to think of a better place.

Xiong Tingbi's next words showed that Wang An's answer was closer to his heart's wish.

"This old man is also looking forward to it. I thought that after the first month, those Jian slaves should be starved away, but I didn't expect them to survive. But if this continues, Shenyang City may not be able to hold on."

He didn't say this, but Zhou Yongchun and Wang An knew it in their hearts.There are too many downsizing, when the ice and snow melt, the earth turns green, and Jiannu's war horses can eat the grass, the sad days of Shenyang City are coming.

Wang An had no choice but to comfort him and said, "Perhaps the imperial court will send reinforcements at that time."

Zhou Yongchun clasped his fingers, and broke Wang An's illusion with a deep voice.

"Prince Neixiang, the imperial court had better not send reinforcements. The slaves in the city are like hungry wolves. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty could not fight in the field. Now they are here to give them their heads and supplies."

Xiong Tingbi put his fists on the table, "If I give this old man three years, I will definitely be able to train an army that is not inferior to Liaodong cavalry, strong and brave enough to fight Jiannu in the field."

Both Zhou Yongchun and Wang An knew that what Xiong Tingbi said was true, but would God give him a chance?Will they be given a chance?Can they keep Shenyang City?

Xiong Tingbi and Zhou Yongchun were worried that He Shixian and the other generals leading the troops were already preparing for street fighting after the city was broken.They all understood the current situation in their hearts. If the soldiers were not replenished and Jiannu continued to attack the city, Shenyang City would not last until the end of February.

Starting from Daishan leading the army, Nu/Erhaci sat in the king's tent, an unprecedented sense of crisis seized his heart, making him feel that it was hard to breathe.He and his younger brother grew up in hardships, which gave him an animal-like instinct for life-threatening things.How many times, he has escaped danger by relying on this instinct.

Now this instinct tells him that he should immediately go back to Jurchen Baishan Heishui.But reason prevented him from doing so.Do you just give up the foundation you have worked so hard to build all your life?

He was not reconciled.

But the Ming army can have the power of a thousand artillery salvos, how can I prevent their artillery from salvoing?Withdraw the troops and set up an ambush in the mountains?In that way, the Jurchens also lost their advantage on horseback.

The tallow candles in the Nu/Erhaci tent burned all night.

Sibeile Huang Taiji went to the king's tent to see him after the sun was bright.

"Father Khan, would you like your son to lead the army to meet the second brother?"

Nu/Erhachi looked at the eighth son in his early twenties, the young man's majestic charm, ready to go, and vigorous posture, and he was very satisfied and happy.

To be able to miss his brother and think about his brother, this is his dear son.

"Okay. Take [-] cavalry to have a look, and go back quickly."
