433 Issues Reward Mingjun with Loyalty and Righteousness (7)
"General, General, General has an order." The motto ordered Tangma to find Obai's general flag and whispered: "The general order is ordered by Xuan: Those who climb the earth wall first will be promoted to two levels, and one Dingbianzhuang, two hundred taels of silver and five pieces of cloth! Those who climb the Tianjin wall will be promoted to three levels, and those who climb the Tianjin wall will be promoted to three levels, and those who climb the Tianjin wall will be rewarded to two levels, five hundred taels of silver and ten horses! Those who break the Tianjin city first will be promoted to four levels, and those who go to Beile will be rewarded to five tons of bamboo, one thousand taels of silver and one who will be given a lifetime position! Anyone who wins against the former will be executed no matter what his position is, and the whole family will be slaves..."
After listening with a squint, Obai squinted his eyes and saw that the generals around him were ready to get a job, and he had the idea of getting a job. Since the late emperor changed his official system, he had to get a job for a job and had military achievements. It was no longer as easy as in Lao Khan's hands. Now even the lowest "half future" is not easy to get.
"Since everyone has the wish to receive merit, we must work harder to defeat Tianjin City!" Oboi shouted loudly.
Although everyone had never seen such a complex city defense, the two yellow flags had no city that could not be captured since the two yellow flags were rampant inside and outside the pass, so their morale remained unchanged. They shouted orders to advance, and even if they were to use their lives, they would have to fill these trenches.
The years of vulnerability of the Ming army also led to the decline in combat effectiveness of the Manchu soldiers and their mistakes in understanding themselves. According to the old chief Nuer Haci, the reason why the Jin Kingdom was able to defeat the Yi tribes in Liaodong was because the Jin Kingdom "built a city", "defend the city" and "siege the city".
If we talk about building a city, in fact, the "capital" in the Jin Dynasty was not even as big as the prefectures and counties in Jiangnan. As for defending the city, it was because the Yi tribe in Liaodong did not even have iron tools, let alone siege equipment. Even in the Huangtaiji era, Amin defended Yongping, but was still defeated by the counterattacking Ming army. He did not defend even for a day and left after being abandoned. This also gave Huangtaiji a warning and imprisoned his cousin until his death.
The Qing Dynasty's siege was even more versatile. All the castles captured in Liaodong and western Liaoning were nothing more than two methods: one was to dig trenches to siege, and when the people in the city starved to death, they would naturally be captured. The other was to offer the traitor to the city. Especially the second was to almost be the only way for Nuerhaci to attack the city and pull out the village.
In fact, since the Qing Dynasty usurped the country, it had never really captured a big city with its superior forces. In the original historical time and space, as long as the defending generals were in good command, the soldiers and civilians in the city would be guarded together. Even a small Jiangyin city could be defended for 81 days.
These inconspicuous history have been forgotten by new generations like Oboi, and in their memory, they have only won great victories again and again.
On the other hand, although the Ming army was rampant with city and fortress tactics, the one who really pushed this tactic to the top was the crown prince's Eastern Palace Army.
From village transformation to anti-arc walls, abundant laborers mined large quantities of lime ore, using calcined cement as a new type of adhesive and filler, greatly increasing the progress of the project and defense strength. Although the scale of hundreds of thousands of workers was compared by some people to the Qin Emperor's construction of the Great Wall and the Sui Yang opened the canal, the actual effect and rigid demand made Zhu Cilang willing to be called a tyrant and not reduce the scale.
Even if the steam power mechanical trial production will be successful in the future, it will take a long process to replace large-scale human labor.
...
"These Donggu are really like bats." Cao Ning said: "In front of birds, they say they are beasts, and in front of beasts, they use our Ming Dynasty to fight against the Mongolian Tatars and Donghu, they say they are good at attacking cities and villages, and they also use the Mongolian Tatars and Donghu cavalry to attack us. They say that they have established a country with bows and horses. In fact, both ends are three-legged cats."
Xiao Donglou looked at the enemy soldiers who were like scattered ants below and agreed: "This is obviously a person who cannot attack the city, and he is trying to break our cannon formation by just getting some shields? I really underestimate us."
"This is still a vanguard, and the artillery probably followed the central army." Cao Ning said: "According to the information sent by the General Staff, the artillery that Donglu can use now is not counted as Beijing's city defense artillery, there are a total of forty-three."
"All? Forty-three gates?" Xiao Donglou laughed and said, "My Second Guards Division has hundreds of cannons! What does he use to fight me!"
Cao Ning glanced at Xiao Donglou and said coldly: "It's no good for dogs to get diarrhea, but it's not a good thing for people to be crazy. Besides, are the 116 cannons here for us? This is used to guard Tianjin! They are all from the firearm camp."
"What if he doesn't matter, it's mine for me." Xiao Donglou didn't care at all, and suddenly said: "By the way, scholar, this seventh change is a battalion artillery. Now I don't know how many gates have been cast across the country. After counting one battalion and five gates, there are not so many camp leaders."
"There will be more and more camps. Let me tell you secrets, don't spread them." Cao Ning lowered his voice and said, "One time, Your Highness blurted out and said, "Millions of heroic troops cross the river." Tsk tsk, you really have a courage... Cough cough, your Highness said later: The world is so big, it's not enough without more than one million troops. So the General Staff's staff members are saying that Your Highness will eventually expand its troops by one million. How many camps do you have to calculate how many camps do you have to do this?"
"As long as the head of the bird's hair, there will be hundreds of them according to the division!" Xiao Donglou was very excited: "Do you think we are at the right time? In the future, we will take dozens of divisions to fight, which will be hundreds of thousands of troops!"
"But I'm thinking," Cao Ning was from a logistics background. "How much does military pay and how much does military ration need? Unless this million army is accompanied by a garrison like the Liaodong Division, which is accompanied by military garrisons. Otherwise, how can I maintain it?"
"I don't think I won't..." Before Xiao Donglou finished speaking, two rumbling guns suddenly came from the battlefield.
The sound of the cannon was more gloomy and thicker than the sound of the Qi Qiji, which made the earth tremble and extraordinary.
A circle of shells brought out an invisible qi in the air and flew straight towards the flag behind the Qing army formation.
Oboi was also shocked by the sudden thunder, and then he saw two black shadows rushing towards him. As a general in front of the formation, he could not lose his dignity. He sat on the horse's back without moving, but his heartbeat was like fifteen buckets of water, up and down.
Finally, one of the shells tilted its head and hit a shield cart in front. It immediately smashed the shield cart and crushed it, crushed the body of the green camp soldiers next to it, and then stopped.
Another shell had a much higher head and still rushed straight to Obai to the flag.
A Meleezhen stepped forward and grabbed Oboi's bridle, his palms were already full of sweat.
The surrounding Goshha held an iron shield in front of Oboi, waiting for God's final verdict.
This ticking time for several seconds seemed to be hundreds of years for them.
Dong!
The shell fell to the ground, stirring up dust and jumped up, half a man tall, hitting a Goshha iron shield.
Nagoshiha was wearing three-fold armor, with his front legs arched and his back legs stretched. He used all his strength to block the shell. He heard the sound of gold and iron, and Geshiha screamed and flew backwards for more than ten steps, landing heavily on the ground, spitting blood in his mouth, and obviously had its internal organs broken.
The shells rolled to the side innocently, and finally stopped spinning under the shocking gaze, quietly dissipating the scorching heat from their bodies.
Oboi was so scared that his inner armor was soaked.
As long as the shell is more than two more positions, even if it is stopped by Goshha, he will be knocked off the horse by Goshha who was knocked away.
"General, the shield car is almost exhausted, so let's withdraw first and reorganize the troops before rushing." Melezhangjing was mourning in his voice.
Obai took a breath, pretended to be indifferent, and said, "I don't want the Ming army's cannon to be shot far. Let's retreat first."
Melezhangjing suddenly felt relieved and sent a message to the sound of gold.
...
A staff officer ran up the city wall in small steps and saluted to the two commanders: "Teacher, Chief of Staff, the enemy has retreated, please give instructions!"
Xiao Donglou and Cao Ning held the female wall and looked at the battlefield. They confirmed that the Qing army did not pretend to retreat, so they ordered: "Each battalion cleans up the war zone and clears the trenches."
"Affect the order!" The staff officer gave his respect and retreated.
Xiao Donglou continued to say to Cao Ning: "You haven't seen that Your Highness has withdrawn even the garrison? If you want to build a military camp, why should you withdraw the garrison?"
"This is..." Cao Ning took out the fan, opened it and swung it a few times, then took it back, and said, "But even if we want to pacify the world, there are no need for a million troops. According to our combat power, there are ten divisions, which is enough to pacify the world."
"It is unrealistic to our combat power." Xiao Donglou raised his chin: "You have too high requirements for them. But even if we look at the combat power of the First and Third Divisions of the Imperial Guards, it should be enough."
"Can you be more shameless?"
"Let's try." Xiao Donglou touched the scar on his face and pretended to be calm and heavy, but his heart was filled with laughter.
Under the city of Tianjin, the auxiliary soldiers led the civilians and worked hard to transport the bodies nervously.
Because the Ming army was guarding the earthen wall, even if there were casualties, they were carried to the rear hospital as soon as possible.
According to the plan, the depressions outside the defense line are natural corpse pits. After simply recording the number of corpses, all of these corpses were abandoned in these depressions, mainly for epidemic prevention considerations. Moreover, when these depressions are filled in the future, they can be considered as a layer of base fertilizer.
The corpses in the trench are better treated. Just sprinkle with strong tinder oil and wait until the Qing army lit the fire when the next attack, and it will burn it and become a wall of fire. The trouble is the earth bags, but fortunately there are not many, so you can wait until the battle is quit at night.
Xiao Donglou and Cao Ning's troops were divided into two groups. He went to the field hospital to visit the injured soldiers. Cao Ning went to the front of the formation to understand the battle situation and counted the number of casualties.
Because of the special origin of the Second Division, Cao Ning has always served as the instructor, so it is quite difficult to clone at this moment. This was originally the strategy of loving the East Palace, but the second division has been integrated into the East Palace system. This loving the heart is not only unnecessary, but has become a burden.
While responding to the data reported by various battalions, Cao Ning was thinking about how to report to the General Training Department and asked to send a serious "teacher training instructor" to come.
He went to the training of a trainee, and he felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to be a trainee. In the past, he only taught people to read and write wills and letters. Now, not only that, he also had to "think what the soldiers thought" and "worry what the soldiers were worried about"... It's so fucking! I know which village girl was thinking about in the minds of those big-headed soldiers?!
