Chapter 178 The First Step of Siege

Unfortunately, what Wang Chengen couldn't see was that the divine being in his heart and His Majesty the Emperor, who was destined by destiny, was now huddled in the ditch and furtively peeking his head out.

Fushun City is only more than thirty miles away from Shengjing City.

When the armored men excavating the fortifications arrived more than ten miles away from the eastern suburbs of Shengjing City, they could already spy from a distance crowds of people frantically digging holes in the vast plains.

After the two sides discovered each other, they stopped their shovels and looked at each other for a while.

Then.

Do whatever you have to do.

Digging pits and trenches is all.

It just so happened that here, Zhu Youjian did not issue weapons to the armored men digging the trenches. The main reason was to prevent these people from mutiny or charging without permission. When Shengjing recruited serf labor to dig trenches, they probably had the same idea.

Same.

Neither of the two groups responsible for digging the hole had the intention to rush forward and engage in a bloody battle.

Looking at everyone's expressions and guessing their thoughts, Zhu Youjian casually pulled out a chair and sat down: "But brothers, you must know that even if our results did not rely too much on slaves and armored men before, in the future

, they must be the main force in our army."

This harmonious scene was until Shengjing began to send troops to the trenches, and Zhengheiqi also began to extend the front line, filling the trenches with soldiers and heavy firepower.

After entering, those who had not yet arrived said a word and saluted. Zhu Youjian waved his hand and said, "Sit down first and then talk."

Therefore, the battlefield was surprisingly harmonious. Both sides left a mile of land in front of the formation without anyone touching it, and then each dug for his own.

The way of attack.

Zhu Youjian clasped Cheng Kuo's shoulders with both hands, his face very serious.

"The tribe really needs more warriors."

This caused their limited self-confidence to disappear, and they no longer believed that they were the superior party that could annex and assimilate these slaves and armored men.

"Tests are necessary, but we trust your decision."

Kalama and others followed the good deeds.

Putting soldiers with weapons that could affect the overall situation into ever-changing trenches, even if he had already prepared the regulations, Zhu Youjian thought that he would not use them if he could.

As soon as he sat down, Zhu Youjian stood in the center of the big tent, spreading his hands towards everyone: "In less than two years, I stood outside this big city again, and the situation between us and Jiannu was completely reversed.

This is only possible because of the united efforts of all brothers."

There are only a few people in our clan, and it’s not like you don’t understand that even Jiannu knows how to instruct men in armor to die, so we must learn from this, and we must also accept more men in armor and more flag men.”

"From this war on, I will incorporate a large number of foreign bannermen into our Black Flag tribes. How you trust your own tribe will depend on how much you trust these bannermen."

Because it was also the trench where slaves were built, sparks appeared in the dark night.

As soon as these words came out, all the leaders couldn't help but look at each other.

Cheng Kuo's eyes widened, he sniffed sharply, knelt down and kowtowed.

Zhu Youjian filled the Zhenghei Banner Firearms Battalion into the trenches and asked them to rely on the trenches to continuously fire at the slave-building positions. Whether they can achieve the effect is not yet said. The main thing is not to stop.

"Come in, leaders!"

There are too many slaves and armored men.

"Go out and call Kalama and others in!"

"But! It doesn't matter if your men die. I want you to live! You can't die! If one of you twenty people dies, it's like taking out my heart, liver, intestines and lungs! So if I let you lead the Longxiao Camp into the battle,

, you must protect yourself!"

General Wu Chao first sealed off two of them, and then ordered them to guard the north of the army and control Tieling Guards, Kaiyuan City, and 30,000 guards.

With a shout, Kalama and others who had been waiting for a long time immediately swarmed in.

You didn't even have to sacrifice your life for even a tael of salary.

Then, taking advantage of the fact that the front line of the battle could not change for a while, and the armored men's teams arranged in other directions were also hindered by the trenches, Zhu Youjian began to cite his merits from behind the trenches, promoted banner men from among the armored men, and awarded generals

Position.

"Your battalion is called Longxiao Camp! Xiangjian, you must remember that once I dispatch you to launch an attack! Once your battalion rushes into Jiannu's trenches! Your men will either drive Jiannu out of the trenches.

, or die in the trenches of the slave builders! There is no possibility of retreat!"

They thought that Wuerte would assign combat tasks as soon as possible.

"I know Wuerte."

Zhu Youjian smiled helplessly and shook his head slightly.

"In fact, this is why I asked you all to come in. You should not hold any prejudice against the armored men and generals who rush to the front during the battle. If you really can't help it, try not to look at them.

them.

By digging trenches close to the opponent's trenches, the distance of the charge can be shortened, or simply digging the trenches together with the enemy's trenches, and everyone will fight in the trenches!

Basically, they were all captured young men.

It's also a trench.

With that said, Zhu Youjian opened the curtain of the big tent and pointed in the direction of Shengjing in the distance.

Then, the harmonious scene was broken.

Cheng Kuo knelt and went out to open the curtain of the big tent. Outside were the leaders of the Black Flag Army who were already waiting.

At this point, Zhu Youjian revealed his ultimate goal.

But the psychological construction that needs to be done must be done!

"Look, there are so many people, and there are so many cities we have conquered. If we don't have the courage to accept more people and treat them as our fellow kinsmen, then how can we replace the rule of slaves in this area?

land?"

Kalama pondered for a moment and nodded first.

There are more than the Black Flag tribe can comprehend.

Just take a shot every now and then.

Of course, Zhu Youjian thinks he has some advantages.

Subsequently, Zhu Youjian took Kalama and other leaders of the Black Banner tribes, gathered all the elites of the Black Banner Army in one place, and began to attack the trenches east of Shengjing.

So this so-called attack, let alone bloody, for a while, the two sides hadn't even met each other yet.

After nearly two years of accumulation, the quantity of Dragon Roaring Guns and ammunition obtained from Nanjing, as well as the technical application, finally allowed Zhu Youjian to put aside too many scruples and independently arm a group of decent soldiers for assault.

Elites may shoulder the important task of suppressing firepower from a static distance.

Then, without waiting for the leaders to express their opinions, he continued with a smile: "As for the battle, trench warfare will definitely be long and smelly. Your task is not to lead the troops around at will, and then just wait for my order. I just went to the front trench."

Look, it may take three days to dig through. During these three days, you should communicate more with the bannermen assigned to your tribe, and it is best to treat them as your own warriors."

As he spoke, he threw a dried fruit towards Kalama and others.

The Jiannu spent decades assimilating the Jurchen tribe and turning them into the ruling class to consolidate their power.

Nowadays, the time that the savage Jurchen tribes have is pitifully short.

Regardless of whether Shengjing is captured or not, the ever-expanding Zhenghei Banner requires them to selflessly and defenselessly accept more people.

I hope they have enough structure so that Zhengheiqi will not collapse due to the overload expansion of territory and population, or lead to a lack of loyalty to a certain tribe that controls a certain part, leading to division or something.

That will take time.

My condition is okay tonight. I feel that all the effects on my thinking have disappeared. My dizziness and fatigue are minimal. I should be able to try to resume the third update tomorrow.
