Valley Emperor

At seven in the morning on May 14th, outside Anping Town, Li Xuan in military uniform appeared on a hilltop, followed by a large group of civil and military officials!

Lei Wan, Hao Bainian, Fang Xitong, Zeng Ziwen, Qian Mengjiu, Wang Wenhua and other important civil and military officials were there, but there were even more generals and officials. On the small hill, dozens of people were crowded, and one by one All are well-known.

If the Ming army had the kind of long-range heavy artillery with a range of several kilometers, or a grenade, if one shot hit this hilltop, more than half of the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty could be reimbursed.

It is a pity that such long-range heavy artillery is not available in the Ming Army. Even if it can shoot so far, it cannot hit.

Don't explain the army, even the Tang army does not have such a long-range heavy artillery that can shoot several kilometers and can accurately hit.

This year's first sighting equipment is too backward, and the craftsmanship of artillery and shells is also determined. Even if there is a sighting range, it will not be able to hit.

Today, the effective range of Tang Jun's artillery is generally less than 500 meters. Even the 24-pound cannons of the Navy have only such an effective range.

In this scary age of low hit rates, it's almost meaningless to pay attention to the maximum range, and the effective range is the only measure of artillery range.

Otherwise, Li Xuan would not have brought so many civil and military officials to the front line to personally command the battle!

In front of Li Xuan, there is a dense army of 100,000 troops, almost all over the mountains and plains!

Except for the 5th Infantry Division, the 3rd Cavalry Detachment, and the 27th Infantry Regiment of the 9th Infantry Division, all the remaining main forces of the Third Army, Fourth Army, and Guards Army are here.

Here, if you don't count the 15,000 people in the Guards, there are four infantry divisions in the 6th Army alone, namely the 6th Infantry Division, the 8th Infantry Division, the 9th Infantry Division, and the 11th Infantry Division. , There are four mixed groups, namely the first mixed group, the fourth mixed group, and the ninth mixed group, and these three mixed groups are all the main mixed groups. Under the same number, the combat power is not inferior to several main groups. Infantry Division.

There are also four assault battalions and five heavy artillery battalions.

The total number of troops has reached more than 90,000 people, and it is not false at all to claim that there are 100,000 troops.

There are many troops, and there are about 250 field guns of five catties and nine catties in total, of which there are more than sixty field guns of nine catties.

Jurisdiction has nearly 100 heavy short-barreled grenades of 24 catties and 48 catties.

As for the two or three catties of shotguns, there are more. When counting artillery, the 6th Army of the Tang Dynasty no longer specifically includes these infantry support shotguns.

Now, with just one order from him, the 100,000 army in front will violently attack the Ming army in front!

The Ming army on the opposite side also noticed the change of the Tang army on the opposite side, and they also started to arrange their troops early, and the number of the Ming army on the opposite side was also quite large, or even more, and the estimated number has reached 112 million people.

The Ming army's huge infantry phalanxes were one after another, and they were also all over the mountains and fields. At the same time, they also relied on the built camps and fixed fortifications for defense. At the same time, according to the investigation of the cavalry, although the main force of the Ming army was a regular army of 112,000. But it also mobilized a large number of young adults, at least tens of thousands.

Needless to say, these young men knew that they should be used to build fortifications, and when necessary, they would be pulled out as cannon fodder to consume Tang Jun's bullets and shells.

Although it shows that the army has already formed a consensus, the guards are already unusable, and the young men who are recruited temporarily are even less useful. However, when there is a shortage of troops, it is not easy to use and can only be pulled out. The bullets and shells that can consume the opposing pseudo-Tang thieves are not.

As long as Qingzhuang can consume the ammunition of the opposing pseudo-Tang bandit army, then it will not be a loss.

The Ming army was huge, but relatively speaking, there were far fewer artillery pieces. Even Emperor Zhengde had already concentrated all the artillery pieces in the north, and he had also stepped up the casting of some of the artillery pieces in the past half a year. The number is still not comparable to Tang Jun.

In this battle, there were only about a hundred field guns of more than five jins gathered by Emperor Zhengde, and most of them were five jin field guns, and there were only a few scattered nine jin field guns, and a small part was seven jin. Field gun.

As for short-barreled heavy grenades, the Ming army did not have large-scale equipment.

However, the Ming army also knew their shortcomings in heavy artillery, so they equipped large-scale shotguns such as Folang machine guns and Wankou guns. The number of these shotguns was more than that of the Tang army.

Now that the armies of the two sides are already in position, Li Xuan is on the battlefield, and Emperor Zhengde, regardless of his physical strength, insists on going to the front line to supervise the battle!

The style of Emperor Zhengde's side is bigger than that of Li Xuan's side. Various emperors' special honor guards are set up, and he even rides a dragon sedan chair carried by thirty-two people!

This is not that Emperor Zhengde wants to show off, but that today's battle is of great significance. He must show his emperor's majesty, and then let the Ming soldiers see that he, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is fighting with them on the front line.

He is the only emperor in China, and the Ming Dynasty is the only legal court in China!

On the other hand, the pseudo-Tang thief army opposite, the pseudo-emperor Li Xuan, is just a clown jumping on the beam!

Therefore, in terms of prestige, he absolutely cannot lose to the opposite pseudo-emperor Li Xuan!

The person below has already reported, and the fake emperor Li Xuan is also on the front line, and he is on a small hill several miles away. If you look at it from a distance, although you can't see the person clearly, you can still see a group of fake Tang Dynasty on the opposite hill. Among the officials was a man in a yellow robe.

I can't see the appearance and age clearly, but the yellow dragon robe can be seen at a glance from a few miles away. It is definitely a fake emperor Li Xuan.

Because in the fake Tang bandit army opposite, apart from the fake emperor Li Xuan, there is absolutely no second person who dares to wear yellow clothes!

Just like Emperor Zhengde, although he is also dressed in armor and military uniform, he is still golden as a whole, and in the entire Ming army array, apart from him, there will be no other person wearing this.

This is going to be an emperor versus emperor showdown!

And today, only one emperor can leave this place alive!

Emperor Zhengde has already made a plan. In today's battle, either the main force of the pseudo-Tang thief army will be defeated in the first battle, or he will be defeated. If he is defeated, then he will have no escape, and the final end will be death. on the sand.

If defeated, not only the entire Shandong, but even the entire North, including the Forbidden City, would be unable to resist the subsequent attack of the Tang army. Even if he escaped, would he be able to escape there?

Therefore, if he is defeated, he will not escape, he will die here, and not only him, but all the officials present will have to accompany him to die here!

When he thought of this, Emperor Zhengde looked around the surrounding civil and military officials. This time, he brought out most of the Ming Dynasty's civil and military officials.

Bringing them in person is to prevent them from making trouble in the rear. Otherwise, Emperor Zhengde will go to the front and they will dare to rebel.

Bring them, so to speak, take them to fight together, let alone monitor them nearby.

As for the defeat, although Emperor Zhengde himself did not intend to live, he did not intend to let them live too.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has come to this end, Emperor Zhengde does not deny that he has certain responsibilities of his own, but he believes that the greater responsibility lies with these courtiers.

If the Zhu Family Dynasty is finished, they will also have to bury the Zhu Family Dynasty. He will never allow himself to be defeated and die. These guys turn around and wag their tails at the fake emperor Li Xuan, and then turn into officials of the fake Tang Dynasty.

He, Zhengde, is not allowed!

The emperors of both sides were already present, and with Li Xuan sitting on the dragon chair, he gently ordered: "Let's start!" After that, the 6th Army of the Tang Dynasty moved first, and the artillery was the first to start.

However, it was not firing, because the distance between the two sides was still a little far, and the range of the artillery was not enough. The artillery had to continue to move forward and reach the predetermined artillery position before it could fire smoothly.

The Ming army on the opposite side was not stupid. When they saw the Tang army moving, they immediately confronted each other, and their artillery opened fire first.

The Ming army was well prepared, and the artillery positions were also prepared in advance. As long as the Datang 6th Army entered the predetermined range, they could fire directly.

However, at this time, the gunners of the Ming army realized that the artillery of the Tang army was advancing faster than they expected. The gunners of the Tang army did not directly push the artillery forward with their hands, but directly pulled the artillery forward with their horses. The first batch of artillery were relatively light five-jin field guns.

This is also an artillery battle plan formulated by the Datang 6 Military. In order to allow the artillery to arrive at the predetermined artillery position quickly and safely, in addition to the cover of the infantry, the artillery unit will also directly allow the horses to pull the artillery forward quickly.

The artillery units of the Tang Army were advancing quickly~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The infantry on the side also stepped forward accordingly and provided cover to prevent the cavalry or infantry of the Ming Army from coming out. Although the main force of the Ming cavalry was not in Anping Town, there were also a few. Qianqi is here.

At this time, the artillery of the two sides were actually quite far apart, but they were already able to effectively kill each other's front-deployed infantry phalanx.

After Tang Jun's artillery was in place, the 6th Infantry Division on the left also began to move. The infantrymen stepped forward with the sound of the drums, neither too fast nor too slow. Above their heads, artillery shells flew from time to time, then landed on the ground in front, and then bounced up and rushed into the opposite Ming army array.

At the same time, the Ming Army artillery on the opposite side also fired at the 6th Infantry Division, and many shells fell into the array of the 6th Infantry Division!

But none of this can stop the duel between the infantry on both sides!
