chapter one hundred and forty six.
In Nagasaki under the sunny coast, a busy and hot labor scene was "joyful" exposed in front of the gables of Sakio Mountain. Groups of Japanese people took turns to hoes made of wood and shovels were digging hard in the sand, contributing to the overthrow of the "reactionary forces" of the Tokugawa Shogunate and sweating.
The Japanese people are very enlightened! In order to support the world revolution, they also "voluntarily" took out rice, dried fish, pickled radishes from their homes, and did not leave any food at all. They insisted on stuffing them into the hands of the Ming brothers, and could not stop them. The Ming brothers holding flintlock rifles and bayonets were all "cold tears" in their eyes.
The Japanese pirates plundered in the Ming Dynasty like guerrillas. Most of them were attacking underground villages and towns. Smaller forts, even if they had the chance to attack the city, they would still be scooped up. Ten thousand, the Ming army teams would come and leave. They fought in small-scale battles. Mao Jue was better, and he didn't go to grab the city. He swaggered and dug up the gas pipeline under the city. Poor, there were many villages and towns near Nagasaki City. All the Japanese inside were arrested by Mao Jue and started municipal projects. No matter the rich and poor peasants, the little food in the family was also overturned and fought for military use. As Sun Tzu's Art of War said, a wise general would eat the enemy, eat the enemy for one bell, and I would be twenty bells!
The concept of the country has been weak these days. Many poor people who are not able to eat enough at home can still eat white rice that only rich families can afford. If they do well, the Ming army generals actually have silver rewards. Some Japanese people are more motivated than farming and have captured almost 10,000 people. In four days, two trenches completely surrounded the Nagasaki Peninsula, and it was scattered.
It's really like learning and selling. Mao Jue's earth city is similar to that of Huang Taiji's earth city under Dalinghe City. The digging of soil has been made into earth walls in the trenches, a trench more than one meter deep and a sloping slope of more than two meters high. The height difference between the upper and lower is almost four meters. A circle of bananas in the middle wraps Mao Jue's army and the captured Japanese people tightly.
The pits were still being dug below, and the wheelbarrow of the great hero of the Huaihai Battle was also in handy here. The digging of earth was paved behind and a new earth wall was formed. However, the dust was flying, making Wen Meng, a guy with dust allergic reactions again, and the snot and tears flowed down one after another.
"Master Wen, don't be afraid! When the Japanese are here, our men will protect you. We can't let our Miss Wen lose a hair, Lao Shen, right?"
"Hey, Fatty Su, don't say anything. When Master Wen cried, he was so beautiful that he looked like a big girl!"
Shen Rong and Su Changmei were laughing and joking around. You and me said one by one, just like talking crosstalk, almost making Wen Meng's horse face look like a toad face. Unfortunately, his head was just not strong, and another burst of tears flowed out, snotting, Wen Meng was swearing in vernacular.
"Get out~ hiss~ Get out of your damn! I can coward these short guys~ Hiss~ It's really a fight, I..."
"Oh, Master Wen, stop crying! My heart is about to break, hahahaha~"
His nose was sore, and he got stuck in half of his scolding, which made the two live treasures laugh and laughed. However, they were in a mess, but the personal soldiers standing guard beside him suppressed their laughter and twisted their faces. But they must not laugh out loud. Not to mention the feudal troops these days, even modern troops in later generations would inevitably bully people. They offended Wen Meng, and asked him to catch him with pain and keep him in a locked down for a few days, and squat for a few hours on horse stance? That really makes me want to die.
In addition to these close personal soldiers, the rest of the soldiers were immersed in a relaxed mood. The soldiers standing on the top of the Tucheng City defended and observed occasionally rubbed their eyes. As for the Ming army without missions, it was rare to train. They gathered together in groups of three or three, smoking cigarettes and chatting.
Not to mention, the advertising effect has come out. Seeing the Ming army under Mao Jue smoking there, many Li Chaobing under Li Shanhai also came over curiously. Our Ming Dynasty belongs to a country of etiquette, and the soldiers are generous. They can divide them into two. In three days, there were also many smokers in the Li Chao army. Although ordinary soldiers have no money, they probably have to quit smoking when they go back, but those who can become officers are all nobles of good blood, and they are also potential customers when they go back.
The most proudest thing here is the Xiongjin Mercenary Group. In the envious eyes of the brothers, they elegantly took out cigarette boxes from the package, lit them with a fire sickle, and then sucked in a very cultural atmosphere. The benefits of giving Mao Jue to join the army are truly reflected in the fullest. I guess even if Mao Jue owes military pay for several months and smokes cigarettes, they will not even have a fart.
Those who are soldiers don’t have to worry about being generals, so they have to worry about having a few live treasures digging a hole to build a construction worker. Mao Jue was walking on the newly built earth wall. At this time, Nagasaki was far from being a giant like later generations, and it was just like a medium-sized county town in later generations. The thinnest place was cut, and a wall was only about three thousand meters. Although there was still a single jungle that was not repaired, it would not delay the sealing of Nagasaki.
There is soil underneath, and it has not been tamped yet. It is really not strong. It only takes a few days to use it. Moreover, the soil in the top of the wall was built with a bag of gray cloth, which was built up to 40 centimeters. The soldiers standing guarding the wall were not bad, and they were all nervous, but what made Mao Jue care about was the cannon at his feet.
A cast iron cannon was mounted with two brackets at the pocket gap, and he raised his head majestic to the distance, but this thing was too small.
Qi Jiguang's masterpiece is a tiger squat cannon with only fifty kilograms of iron, and a soldier can walk by carrying it. It is also the power of a cannon. If there are too many, it will still crash when hitting the wall. However, after all, the caliber is there, and the power of the tiger squat cannon is too small, and the range is just a little farther than that of today's flintlock guns. If Qi Jiguang attacked the Japanese pirates, the mountains and forests would also fight in the fields. Dozens of Japanese pirates collapsed with small cannons, and the team defeated them, and they won the flexibility. However, the last time they fought against Jiannu, they were obviously not able to match the force.
Long-range bombing attacks the city walls, Mao Jue's artillery was enough. Now he lacks a kind of explosive cannon that can give huge damage to the enemies coming from the bee pupa in a short period of time. This Ming army is not without. The previous generals and the second generals cannons were for this purpose, but they were still too heavy. The most ideal is a type of artillery that weighs between the two and has a power that explodes.
"Adrena, what can I use to fight in your country?"
"Our artillery..."
The index finger of his left hand bit his little mouth. Adrena really racked his mind to recall it. Mao Jue was not in a hurry and just looked at the wind. But at this moment, suddenly a burst of smoke and dust came from the opposite side of the trench. More than a dozen cavalrymen were carrying red flags on their backs, and Mao Jue's pupils shrank suddenly as he was galloping like a flying look.
"Scout camp messenger, open the door quickly!"
It was similar to Jiannu's suspension bridge in several gaps, and the porch corridor was built with wood on it. When it was pulled up, it was the gate. Several cavalrymen stood under the door and shouted, and the guards above immediately lowered the suspension bridge.
After trading with Jiannu for more than half a year, the Tieyi Army has really no shortage of war horses. This time, Mao Jue brought three hundred war horses in the horse cabin in the Fu Ship. Although he was leisurely digging pits and playing with mud here, all three hundred cavalry were sent out to guard against any disturbances. Now it is really useful.
About half an hour later, a black line emerged in the northeast direction. At this time, the entire Ming army was completely mobilized, and dense flintlock rifles were mounted on the earthen wall.
"Tsk tsk, there are so many people!"
It is really a vast Japanese infantry. The black armor covers the horizon. The dense flags above the army are like small woods, mainly two figures. On the left is a round vine leaf, three leaves spiral inward vortex, and on the right are three apricot leaves, which are also facing inward inward.
The most eye-catching thing is that there should be almost seven or eight hundred or thousands of red-armored cavalry in front of the army. The breastplate is painted shiny, holding a rifle in the right hand, and carrying a big bag of unknown things behind the back, which is also red, and it keeps trembling with the rhythm of the horse's hooves.
This should be the Kuroda family in the Fukushima family and the Kasaba family. The two are the two most powerful Daming companies in Kyushu Island, except for the Satsuma Shimazu family, and Nagasaki is between the two Daming territories. Although this is a direct territory of the shogunate, its trade has also brought huge profits to the Daming territories. Mao Jue wanted to move Nagasaki, but he couldn't get along with the Daming territories' money bags, so they naturally rushed forward.
The superiors attacked the plan, followed by the enemy, and then attacked the troops, and attacked the cities below! When the plan and attacked the enemy, Mao Jue did not have such a high foothold, and this was already the second to attack the troops. Naturally, he was unwilling to attack the cities below. Although the little Japanese broken city wall was short enough, the city defense was not so sound, but in the end it was also a city. Mao Jue was not sure of getting out of the city for a day. If he was halfway through, he would have been so densely packed behind him. He would probably have been defeated before he could fight.
But in front of you, although Mao Jue was stuck in the middle like a big sausage, in this trench, he was just a stick, making these Japanese people feel uneasy and climaxed.
The situation encountered by the Ming army under the city of Dalinghe was perfectly copied to Japan by Mao Jue.
However, the situation is not so identical. At least for the Ming army and the Later Jin army had psychological advantages accumulated by more than ten years of victory. However, for the "Korean Army", the Japanese army seemed to still remain at the Li Korean who was beaten by Toyotomi Hideyoshi a few decades ago. He arrived at noon. At the first time, the Japanese army blew the trumpet of charge. In Mao Jue's sight, he saw the flag-born warriors suddenly erecting spears forward, and the black Japanese shouted and held a spear and launched a large-scale charge into the trench.
Seeing this scene, the Ming generals on the wall laughed out loud, especially Wen Meng, who burst into tears and laughed loudly, and his smile was so ugly that it was so ugly.
