Chapter four hundred and seventy seventh: a decisive victory
Zhang Jingyi then remembered something.
Someone tried this machine gun again.
This thing is indeed too many problems.
The range is much higher because of the bonus of yellow gunpowder.
It just doesn't have any accuracy at all, it's purely based on luck. After dada dada, bullets flew around, and the target in front... dozens of bullets were not hit.
Is this the legendary point of fingering and striking?
And because he is big, although it is much lighter than a cannon that costs thousands of pounds, it is also hundreds of pounds.
Just such a guy must have huge burdens on logistics and maintenance.
But when Zhang Jing looked at this thing, she couldn't help but feel happy.
After thinking about it, Zhang Jing said, "Or why not give it a name, it's not good to call it a machine gun."
Liu Ye thought for a while and said, "I don't know what the prince means..."
Zhang Jingyi said, "It must be confusing. When people hear this name, they don't know what this thing is. Secondly... they have to be commensurate with its use. It's better... they are called Friends of Cavalry, how about it?"
Liu Ye was stunned for a long time.
Zhang Jingyi said: "I am just throwing a brick and sensation, and you can also state your suggestions."
Liu Ye didn't talk anymore and immediately said, "Mr. Master, this is the best, this is great."
This guy... even flatters and straightforward, no wonder he can only be a craftsman.
Zhang Jingyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Give me instructions. From tomorrow, let the teaching teams take turns to test this cavalry friend. Otherwise, they may be unfamiliar. To let them understand the characteristics of this thing, not only understand, but also master it. Therefore, what you need to do now is to cooperate with them, and of course, you also need to take into account both production. These days, you are afraid you will have to work harder."
Liu Ye kept nodding and saying yes.
On that day, a bill was sent to the palace and finally appeared in front of Emperor Apocalypse.
Emperor Tianqi was originally melancholy for the sake of Jiannu, but after reading Zhang Jingyi's memorial, he was shocked again.
Price has increased!
Not only does the price increase, but the price surges directly, because the memorials are very clear, because a large number of craftsmen and more apprentices may need to be promoted, which means that starting next month, the amount of money allocated in the treasury will have to be at least doubled.
Emperor Tianqi looked speechless, fortunately there was money at this time, so he used money to reduce some worries and seemed generous. He directly sent a note and said he received it.
The meaning of receiving is to discourage or not support it, but I admit it.
At this time, Hong Chengchou had already led his troops out of the capital.
His destination is Zhuozhou and Yongqing.
The Jiannu people did not enter the pass from Shanhai Pass, but from Xuanfu, which is the pass in Shanxi. After that, they rushed all the way and took Baoding Prefecture.
In this case, the best choice is to set up defenses in Zhuozhou and Yongqing areas, gather the scattered soldiers and brave soldiers from various prefectures outside the capital, and form a juncture with the capital!
I think that soon after, the prefectures and prefectures will start recruiting troops and join the capital to serve the king. At that time, the Jiannu people were trapped in countless iron walls.
Of course, this is a better situation!
The worse situation is that the Jiannu people besieged the city and fought for help, and then all the soldiers and horses of the king were destroyed.
At this time, the army is traveling, and the time is fighting for.
This is actually easy to understand. Jiannu's army has arrived in Baoding Prefecture, which means that at this time they are already a short distance from the capital and Zhuozhou area. What happened in the capital cannot escape their eyes.
Within three days, if it is still unable to launch a large-scale attack immediately and quickly arrives at Zhuozhou, then this intention can be realized.
In fact, three days are enough.
But Shenji Camp walked very slowly.
It’s not that Shenjiying is slow and deliberately neglected.
There are really too many burdens in this army.
The capital city has begun to be unsafe, which has made many scholars and doctors in the city feel a little worried that eggs cannot be placed in the same basket at the same time.
So when Shenji Camp left the capital, many ministers in the court secretly asked Hong Chengchou to bring some of their families and escort them to Zhuozhou and Yongqing. When they got there, they could go south directly.
Faced with these requests, Hong Chengchou of course agreed.
He is not stupid either. He helped this today, and his future will be limitless.
Moreover, a large number of these people have a friendship with him, either as teachers and students, or as old officials. If they refuse, they will not look good.
How could I know... I thought it was just a few hundred families.
But they didn't know that all these families were traveling in sedan chairs, and they also brought a large number of other families and slaves, such as coachmen, grooms, Changsui, etc., thousands of people.
They were not fast, so they had to walk around and stop. After three days, the army had just arrived at the West Mountain.
Even Hong Chengchou's deputy general Yang Liuwen was dissatisfied: "Donald Hong, if you continue to procrastinate like this, I am afraid that the Jiannu people will surround you if you don't go to Zhuozhou."
Before evening, the families could not stand it anymore, saying that they could not stand the bumps in the sedan chair and asked to camp and rest.
Hong Chengchou seemed calm. Now in the Central Military Camp, he was watching a "Doctor of the Mean" in his hand. Yang Liuwen was worried, but he seemed calm and composed. He slowly put down the book, then picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then slowly said: "It's okay... It's not easy for people to be lenient, so don't blame them."
Yang Liuwen sighed and said anxiously: "I know Mr. Hong is a humble gentleman and cannot be a bad person. If this continues, I am afraid that he may encounter an enemy."
"What's wrong with this?" Hong Chengchou smiled and said confidently: "I wish they would come. If they come to intercept the attack in a hurry, they will definitely be incompetent, trapped and exhausted, and the soldiers will be exhausted. At this time, we are ready to fight them head-on."
"I have figured out the tactics of the Donglin Army. In fact, it is very simple. It is just to set up a car formation and kill the thieves with muskets. Moreover, we still have so many artillery and sufficient supplies. The Jiannu people cannot raise too many military horses for a while. Even if they are in the wild, they can still be taught that they will die without a place to die."
Yang Liuwen said in surprise: "Oh, it turns out that Mr. Hong is actually using such an abacus. He is deliberately luring the enemy into the deeper? But the student took the liberty. Although this plan is a bit dangerous, it is also wonderful."
Hong Chengchou stroked his beard and smiled at Yang Liuwen, saying, "In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Huang Zhong lured the enemy to kill Xiahou Yuan, and this is the same as my tactics. I used this method often when I suppressed bandits in Guanzhong."
The next day, a large number of Jiannu scouts appeared.
Immediately afterwards, more and more Jiannu cavalry came from all directions.
For a moment, many families were shocked. While Hong Chengchou sent a team of people to escort the families to continue traveling south, he began to set up a formation.
Countless large carts have posed a long snake.
The five thousand soldiers of Shenji Camp also looked murderous.
The Jiannu people seemed to be in a vague way and kept sending scouts to investigate, and they all got back, and they were very embarrassed.
So the Jiannu people began to slowly approach the prey in front of them like a group of hungry wolves.
They were not in a hurry to launch an attack until more and more Jiannu people began to appear.
Hong Chengchou was still calm and calm. He compiled a book and went to the capital to inform him about what was happening here.
Then he went to the center to dispatch the army horse, looking like a wise bead in his grasp.
When everyone saw that he was calm and relaxed, they gradually felt relieved.
Another day passed.
The Jiannu people finally started attacking.
In the vast plain, the Han military camp was first vanguard and the Mongols lived on the flanks. Immediately afterwards, a large number of Jiannu Iron Cavalry appeared in the back team, rushing to the storm.
The Han military camp took the lead in launching the attack.
The Shenji Camp, which was hiding behind the chariot array, began to fire guns.
This Han military camp was immediately damaged a lot.
At this time, the Mongolian cavalry on the flanks arrived, and at this time... the Shenji Camp began to get a little busy.
Many people were upset.
Their training is not good, and most of the military officers are scholars, so the scholars are a little panicked.
However, some military officers who are from martial arts are a little bolder, but these martial arts masters are discriminated against in the martial arts lecture hall or in the Shenji Camp.
In other military and maritimes, the real scholars are just governors or supervisors. Good guys, in this ghost place, there are scholars in front, behind and around. These scholars are particularly able to join the group, among the same hometown, and in the same year, all kinds of unexplained relationships. Most importantly, they have a kind of discrimination against Qiu Bake in their bones.
It is almost imagined how well a military officer who was a martial artist would be treated.
As soon as I saw a scholar panic, many military officers who were from martial arts became angry. Just as they were about to say a few words, they were scolded by scholars who were also a hundred households: "Let your team be in front, and we will wait for the rear."
"Where is the difference between front and back after being in the same car array?"
"Bold, are you talking to me like this?"
In fact, both sides have hundreds of households, and they have the same official positions, and they lead their own troops. But they dare to be so domineering.
This martial artist was indignant for a moment, but he did not dare to provoke him. In fact, as he said, everyone was behind the chariot formation, and at this time, how could they be divided? Seeing countless cavalry coming from all directions, at this time, they were still concerned about these things?
However, the other party is like this, with no reason at all, but... they are the group of people who claim to be the most reasonable.
So, the martial artist had to order.
The soldiers below suddenly exploded and shouted and scolded.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came out: "Boom...Boom..."
The sound of cannons rumbled.
The people in the car array were in chaos and were busy watching.
And they discovered... the Jiannu people actually brought a lot of artillery in the back team of Mongolia and Han military camps.
Thanks to the large number of surrendered generals in Liaodong, the Jiannu people had already mastered the manufacture and use of a large number of artillery, and had a special artillery team, and only the Jiannu people were allowed to use it. Others such as Mongolia were not allowed to touch them. Even in the Han military camp, artillery was not allowed to be used. Violators would be killed without any quasi-de-stop.
