Come to Daming with military supplies

Page 298

This was originally the strategy discussed before, after all, seeking defeat before seeking victory is also the art of war.These suggestions were of course put forward by Zou De, and it was under his persuasion that the Miao Army only dispatched 2 people this time. Otherwise, perhaps more people would be dispatched, and naturally the losses would be even greater. .

After receiving Miao Jinlong's order, the Miao army's camp quickly moved. Those who should save people went to save people, and those who should defend the camp stepped up their defenses. Finally, they did not lose their feet in the chaos, and more importantly It was because Kuang Ye, who originally wanted to find an opportunity to send troops, could not find a suitable opportunity.

Kuang Ye saw that the Miao army was going to steal the camp, and it was because of this that he thought that he should do something, for example, if the mercenaries were defeated, they would guard the city gates, otherwise the mercenaries would beat him Is it possible to take the initiative to attack, for example, to attack Huanglong directly, capture the camp of the Miao army, capture or kill Miao Jinlong alive?

Among the two options, he also focused on the second item to prepare.Based on his understanding of mercenaries, he certainly thought that Yang Chendong had a better chance of winning this battle.

The fact is the same, after bursts of fire and bang, the Miao army was defeated.In this way, Kuang Ye sent people out of the city to watch every move of the Miao army base camp. At the same time, except for leaving some troops to Guan Ying to guard the city, General Ma Wei and General Yu Guang were all gathered by him, and they were fully prepared. A thousand soldiers steal the camp.

Unfortunately, the number of troops was still too small, and after getting the result that the Miao army's base camp was not in chaos and the defense was orderly, Kuang Ye could only give up taking military action with a look of disappointment.

First of all, one's own troops are too small, so stealing the opponent's 6 barracks with one thousand seems to be no different from courting death.

Second, Yang Chendong was not notified in advance, if there is no one to back him up, it is very likely that there will be no return.

Kuang Ye stopped all military operations, and only sent scouts to inquire about the battle situation outside. He still had a glimmer of hope, that is, would the mercenaries take the opportunity to attack the Miao army's base camp? If so, he would definitely intervene First hand.

To Kuang Ye's disappointment, the mercenaries did not intend to attack the Miao army's stronghold.After only rushing for two miles, they stopped, and then turned back to clean up the results of the battle. Groups of captives were tied up with ropes and brought back to the mercenary barracks; piles of fires were burning, Directly set the corpses of those dead Miao Jun on fire.This is not to destroy the corpses, but to prevent the plague of so many people who died.

Zhang Zeng still fled back, and there were eight thousand Miao soldiers who fled back with him. When they retreated to the base camp of the Miao army one by one, their feet seemed to be filled with lead, and they couldn't move a step. It just sat on the ground.

Soldiers can pretend to be bears, but Zhang Zeng, a general, can't. He crawled into the main tent, knelt down in front of Miao Jinlong, and begged for punishment.

Looking at Zhang Zeng who was still injured on his left shoulder, although Miao Jinlong hated him, he did not punish him too much. This is the general who followed him in the uprising, he is a hero, and he is the most pure Miao people. So after a few reprimands, he was sent down to recuperate.

For Miao Jinlong's nostalgia, Zou De, who watched everything from the side, admired and hated it at the same time.

What he appreciates is that a loving and righteous master is the target he should follow closely. Following such a person, at least he does not have to worry about being ruthlessly abandoned; what he hates is that he pays too much attention to feelings, and it is difficult to achieve any big things. It is easier to be nepotism bad thing.

Zou De is still analyzing Miao Jinlong's character and the strengths and weaknesses of his work. Over there, one of the kings of the Miao nationality has already said to him: "Mr. Zou, this time our Miao army suffered a big loss. In your opinion , what should we do next?"

"Your Majesty." Zou De quickly put back his wandering thoughts, and said in a very serious manner, "After tonight's incident, we have already seen the strength of this mercenary, it is indeed very powerful. With such an opponent, it's better not to be head-on, otherwise, it will hurt the king's foundation, it's better to defend first, and report the matter to the king, and let the king handle everything."

"Is this the only way to admit this loss?" Miao Jinlong asked with a hint of unwillingness.

"Of course we can't just admit it like this. It's just that if we try our best to fight the mercenaries at this time, we may be in the hands of some people. It's not a good thing to hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt ourselves by eight hundred. It's better Responding to all changes with the same, it is up to you to find opportunities slowly." How can Zou De not see that this is the performance of Miao Jinlong's sternness?Obviously seeing how powerful the mercenary is, he doesn't want to be an enemy anymore, and he is also worried that others will say that he is timid.Even so, help him find an excuse and find a step to go down.

Zou De has lived among the Miao people for so many years, so he really understands the situation well enough.Just this one sentence hit Miao Jinlong's mind, and while he couldn't stop nodding, his originally stern expression eased a lot.

Chapter 438 The Disadvantages of Cold Weapon Wars

He is not the only king of the Miao nationality, but this time, there are three very powerful branches that followed the Min king's lineage, namely Yang Wenbo, the Miao head of Duchai Village, Wu Yingtou, the Miao head of Henglingdong, and himself.Speaking of which, the strength of these two groups is not weak. If he has been severely injured, I am afraid that if he lets them know, he will only gloat.

"Okay, Zou Xiucai is right. That's it. Immediately give an order to block the gate of the camp. Soldiers are not allowed to enter and leave without orders. At the same time, write a battle report and send it to King Min, asking for support." Originally, he wanted to find a It was just a step, and now that the excuse had appeared, Miao Jinlong took advantage of it to speak.After this order was issued, the Miao army barracks with less than [-] troops soon became quiet again.

Whether it was the mercenaries or the Nanming army, they were all waiting for the reaction of the Miao army.

In their view, it is normal for the Miao army who suffered a loss to calm down and calm down, but it is also normal for the Miao army to counterattack wildly in a rage.But no matter which one it is, they will not back down, they will see every move.

Of course, if you can choose, it is better not to use weapons.After all, from a certain point of view, the Miao army is only an auxiliary force of the King Min's family. Even if they are really wiped out, they will not play a very important role. Instead, they will attract the siege of the King Min's army .Of course, unless you have enough strength to fight them head-on, that would be another attitude and idea.

He closely observed the movement of Miao Jun, and at dawn, Miao Jun suddenly became quiet, which was both reasonable and unexpected.But anyway?They are quiet, and everyone is safe for the time being.Kuang Ye, who had been standing on the tower of Gaozhou Mansion City where the cold wind had been blowing almost all night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.In fact, he still had another worry that he didn't express, that is, Miao Jun saw that the mercenaries were powerful and could not be provoked, would he attack them in a fit of anger?If so, it still has to be guarded against.

"Teacher, it's dawn. It's impossible for Miao Jun to come to steal the city. You also stayed here all night. Go back to the mansion and have a good rest." Guan Ying, a student, said in a very distressed tone.

"Hehe." There was a smile on the corner of Kuang Ye's mouth. Although he stayed up all night, he didn't see how depressed his spirit was. The number of people, or the method of night attack did not get a little bit of benefits, tell me, why the court refuses to reuse such a good general?"

"Master, the emperor must have the emperor's consideration, you should go to rest first." How could Guan Ying not know the meaning of Kuang Ye's words.In fact, when he heard for the first time that Yang Chendong also wanted the title of king with a different surname, he was also very angry. In his opinion, this was not a sign of loyalty to the emperor at all.But after thinking about it, Yang Chendong is not completely from Nanming. If the emperor hadn't invited him this time, they would not even care about the chaos in Guangdong.Now that the chaos in Guangdong has been solved by meddling, and you want to let others solve the problem of the chaos in Yunnan, how can you do it without paying some price?If he were Yang Chendong, he would probably make some demands, even some excessive ones.

This is to look at the problem from different perspectives from different perspectives, and different results will be obtained.

It's like two people looking at the palm of one hand, you are looking at the palm, and the other is looking at the back of the hand, the natural feeling is different, and there is no so-called absolute right or wrong.

Although Guan Ying knew that Yang Chendong's request was a little too much, even the lion opened his mouth, but looking at the current situation, it seems that other than him, it is difficult for others to reverse the situation in a short time. From this point of view, there is already a Wang has a different surname, and Yang Chendong proposed to have one too, which doesn't seem to be too much.

Let's not talk about how Guan Ying took care of Yang Chendong.Simply speaking, when he was helping his mentor Kuang Ye to go down the tower to rest, the Sixth Young Master was not at all idle in his barracks.

The battle is over. With the efficient operation of the Yang family army, the cleaning of the battlefield is coming to an end. The wartime statistics have also been reported with the cooperation of the regiment political commissar, battalion instructor, and even the instructor. Now it is on the desk in front of him. leave it alone.

Last night's battle was a battle of preparation, which is why such brilliant results were achieved.More than 7000 enemies were killed on the battlefield, nearly 8000 were captured, and only about [-] escaped.

It is indeed very gratifying to achieve such a result with [-] troops on the battlefield, and it can be regarded as a big victory.It's just that Yang Chendong couldn't be happy after seeing the battle damage on Yang's side.

Not for anything else, just because it said that Leng Feng injured three people, two auxiliary soldiers were seriously injured, more than [-] people were injured, more than sixty temporary auxiliary soldiers were killed, more than [-] people were seriously injured, and more than [-] people were slightly injured.

When Yang Chendong reported the battle damage of nearly a hundred people killed and more than three hundred people injured, his expression darkened unknowingly.

This is still a battle of preparation, especially since the landmines have played an absolute role, but such a high price is still paid, which makes Yang Chendong see that it is not so reliable to fight cold weapons with cold weapons.

In the past, on the battlefield, the Yang family's army could be said to have won many battles.Even in the face of the yellow bandit army with 10,000+, when they were wiped out, they did not achieve such a large battle loss, all because of the superiority in weapons.

This time, Yang Chendong deliberately removed the new musket to see the effect of the cold weapon, but obviously the result was not so satisfactory.

Some people may have said that under the same cold weapon, they defeated 400 people with less than 2 casualties and captured another 7000 people. No matter how you look at it, it is a victory.Such a statement cannot be said to be wrong, but at least it does not apply to Yang Jiajun.

Who are the Yang Jiajun, and what kind of training did they undergo?Leaving aside the elite Leng Feng and auxiliary soldiers, the temporary auxiliary soldiers have also undergone rigorous training for a while.Many of them performed well in the jungle warfare exercise a while ago.But now, some people just died on the battlefield, and there was really nothing left. With such a great effort, the soldiers died before they even reached the real battlefield. How can people be happy?

Chinese history has proved that they prefer to be kind like water, that is, they will not be impatient in doing things, and they are used to changing others in a slow environment, and they will determine their own general trend. This is the main reason why most of the founding emperors are not young.

Ordinarily, at Yang Chendong's age, and taking advantage of the current situation, it is not impossible to perform well first, and then to be crowned king, even if it is to spy on the entire world. It is also unpaid.

It’s just that this method of boiling frogs in warm water was not what Yang Chendong wanted. Knowing history well, he knows what will happen in the future, and he understands even more that the backbone of the Han nationality will be destroyed by only 10,000+ slaves in a short time. It was interrupted, and then it ruled for hundreds of years until the unforgettable 1840, when the backbone of the Qing Dynasty was interrupted, and that was the humiliation of the Han people for more than 100 years.And even if there are great men appearing later, it will be even more difficult to restore the previous prosperity. The world structure has been formed, and it will become very difficult to go out, even if it is a small step.

Yang Chendong, who used to be a soldier, knows that period of history too well.It is precisely because he knows more about it that his goal in life is to strengthen the Han nation, so that the country dominated by Han people can one day stand on top of the world.

But obviously, this is a beautiful wish, and it may be realized one day, but it must be achieved through the joint efforts of many generations, and he cannot be satisfied in that life.

God gave him a chance to come to the middle stage of Ming Dynasty, which was still considered strong, and the most important thing was to give him Da Cang, this almost perverted existence.If you have these advanced knowledge, science, ideas, etc., but you still have to move forward step by step according to Confucianism, then you are really sorry for all this.

What Yang Chendong needs is rapid rise, what he wants is to stand at the top of the world, and what he wants is the ultimate goal of the Han people above everything else.Because of Da Cang, he has such strength, but how big the world is, and how long it will take to conquer it, even he has no bottom in his heart.

But even knowing that the world is big, Yang Chendong still has to do it.And it can only be done sooner rather than later.It may take many years, but if you just think about it and do nothing, it becomes a never-ending task.

A thousand miles begins with a single step!

Yang Chendong decided to take action, so he had to increase his speed, he had to speed up his pace.But looking at it now, although it is feasible to use cold weapons against cold weapons, at least in this way, the pressure on the arsenal behind him will not be so great, but what kind of price does it need to pay to achieve the goal?

All the young soldiers who joined the Yang Family Army did their best to make their parents, wives and children well fed and clothed, so that they could rely on something and lead a better life.For this goal, they dared to use their lives on the battlefield, winning victory after victory.

These people paid with their lives. Looking at Yang Chendong, he actually gave his life to pay for the so-called reduction of the pressure on the arsenal and the expenditure on advanced firearms. From this point of view, it is completely putting the cart before the horse.These are such good sons, even if no amount of gold and silver can be bought, how can they be compared with the muskets that have no feelings?

This battle was a big shock to Yang Chendong.That is to say, since this battle, he has become more aware of what he needs and what he should give.

Chapter 439 A Memorial in War

In the early morning, in the compound of the mercenary camp, 63 Yang family soldiers stood in a row according to their respective queues.In front of them were the corpses of [-] temporary auxiliary soldiers.Beside them, there were less than a few dozen seriously injured comrades who were carried by a single frame, and hundreds of comrades who were wrapped in bandages.

These people are all the soldiers who were killed and injured in the First World War last night.
