Chapter 209 All Anti-material Weapons Are Suitable for Anti-Infantry
Chapter 209 All anti-material weapons are suitable for anti-infantry
When the Toungoo people were attacked in Molamian, the Second Guards Army, led by Guanzhen Wang Xianwu, was landing in the Yangon area south of Toungoo through the cover of the Guangdong Fleet.
After the Second Guards Town captured Yangon with light equipment, they directly marched with force, intending to capture Bago City before Toungoo realized what had happened.
He did not carry much food and grass. If the war drags on for too long and Zhu Kezang's main force cannot arrive in time, he will run out of food.
The Guards marched for one day and two nights, and finally arrived at Bago City in the early morning of the third day.
Bago City is located between the Bago River and the Yangon River. Because it faces large rivers on both sides, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
In order to enhance the ability to defend the city, the Toungoo people also dug an artificial lake outside the city and set up a wooden city. If they wanted to attack Bago City, they must have pontoons or boats.
In fear, King Militi of Toungoo sent an envoy to the Guards formation and presented a letter saying that the previous war between the two countries was purely due to misunderstanding between the two sides. Emperor Yongli was killed by the Qing Dynasty and had nothing to do with them. The two sides should
To make peace with the troops, Dongxu was willing to offer gold and silver treasures as a thank you gift.
After hearing what the messenger said, Wang Xianwu just sneered and said: "Killing my ministers of the Ming Dynasty and betraying my late emperor of the Ming Dynasty are unpardonable crimes for the people of Toungu. The Ming Dynasty's army is here today. If you want to stop the war, please let King Tounguu wear plain clothes."
, tie your hands behind your back, kneel and walk to our Ming army formation to apologize, and then open the city of Bago and surrender!"
The messenger from Toungoo was dumbfounded after hearing what the young general said, so he could only say that he should go back and pass the message.
From ancient times to modern times, morale is always the most important factor of an army, regardless of the quality of its equipment or its tactical thinking!
Even under difficult conditions and in the most dangerous situations, an army with morale and ideas can still overcome difficulties and win.
The war was about to break out. Although the main force of the Toungoo Army was not present, there were still about a thousand soldiers and horses defending on the river bank.
They also moved the soil bags and lightweight black whirlwind rockets prepared in advance off the boat, and set up simple fortification positions on the shore to facilitate subsequent soldiers' attacks!
The faces of the other officers of the Guards all showed determination and fighting spirit.
Coupled with the extremely long-range black tornado rockets, the Toungoo army was unable to get close at all.
No, a thousand Toungoo soldiers were defeated by just a hundred Guardsmen. Even after only a few minutes of contact, the Toungoo soldiers in the first few rows fell, and the Toungoo soldiers behind them were already lost.
He lost his fighting power and ran back.
With the overwhelming firepower of the Ming army, hundreds of Guards soldiers successfully landed on the beach.
When the Guards were halfway across the river, the artillery fire from the Toungoo Army also started firing.
But as the saying goes, all anti-material weapons are very effective when used against infantry.
It was already noon, and the Ming army had been resting for a long time and was at full strength.
It's just that the accuracy of the artillery of the Toungoo Army was really poor and it deviated too far from the Ming Army's crossing fleet.
King Militi of Toungoo was very angry at this time. He said angrily: "You cowards, what if Ming people have powerful firearms? We could kill them violently 20 years ago, why can't we do it this time? Chieftains, immediately
Gather your troops and mobilize my elephants. Even if we use piles, we will pile them up in front of the Ming army. These Ming people who can only use cowardly weapons are no match for our fierce and capable Toungoo warriors!"
The maximum range of the Kangreb rocket can reach 1,800 meters, not to mention the Black Tornado rocket, which was born out of the Hale rocket.
After the messenger left, Dawula, the number two man in the second town, asked: "Xianwu, shall we wait for a reply from the people of Toungoo?"
When this kind of rocket was first developed, it was used to fight naval battles and warships.
Militi sent his generals and together with the servants of the chief chieftains in the city to protect the courtyard, they assembled an army of more than 10,000 people. They dispatched from Bago City and attacked the Ming army's position on the river bank.
The Toungoo Army reacted quickly and sent another thousand troops from the city to drive the landed Guards into the water.
By this time, more than 3,000 Ming troops had successfully crossed the river.
The power of the electromagnetic rifle fully demonstrated its power in this small-scale battle. The two armies were five hundred meters apart, and the intensive minie rounds accurately hit the enemy's infantry.
Even the artillery positions were in chaos.
The Bago River and Yangon River were originally natural barriers to Bago City, but now the Ming army successfully landed on the beach, and the follow-up troops crossed the river directly under the cover of strong firepower and came directly to Bago City.
Behind him is the Ming Dynasty dragon flag flying, but his posture is as straight as a flagpole.
The Toungoo Army soldiers who fled back became a source of fear, making other Toungoo Army soldiers in Bago City even more panic-stricken.
Militi came to power in 1672 and ruled Toungoo for nearly ten years. However, in these ten years, the internal divisions in Toungoo became larger and larger, and the powerful officials and powerful chieftains in the court became increasingly disobedient to him.
The Taungoo army was completely stunned by the large swaths of artillery shells before they had any idea what was going on.
But how could the Ming army, which had established a simple defense line, be destroyed so easily.
Wang Xianwu and Da Wula decided to send soldiers to board more than ten ships. The soldiers on each ship used lightning rifles and carried black tornado rockets. The Ming Polu cannons were used as fire cover on the shore.
Wang Xianwu chuckled and said: "When I raised this condition today, I didn't expect those bastards to agree. Now we don't have to wait, we can just cross the river and fuck them."
Facing the attack of more than 10,000 people, Wang Xianwu wore a suit of shiny armor and wore a Longquan sword at his waist.
At this distance, the Ming army's Polu artillery and black whirlwind rockets roared.
"Devils, the Ming army is devils! The fire blunderbuss in their hands can hit us from a distance of 600 yards. If not for the terrifying fireball spell, it is too scary. No one can get close to them!"
Other Guards soldiers took this opportunity to cross the Bago River and set up positions on the beach.
Fortunately, the Ming people have made it clear that they want to liquidate them, and these chieftains dare not fail to work hard, otherwise if the Ming army is really allowed to attack, then they will probably all die.
Surrounded by two rivers, King Toungoo could not escape now.
If there is strong firepower, not to mention, the strongest among the strongest!
The Guards is such an army, with spectacle bonus and its own BGM, it is an invincible army in this era.
Needless to say, the Toungoo army was once again suppressed by the firepower of the Ming army. Neither humans nor elephants could charge with death under such firepower.
After leaving behind 3,000 corpses, the Toungoo army collapsed again.
Standing on the city wall, King Militi of Toungoo could see the whole battle. At this time, the king only felt unwillingness and fear: "How could this happen... How could this happen? I am not willing to accept it!"
"Go forward at full speed and strive to capture the Bago Royal City before the emperor arrives!"
