Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 255 Crazy Marines

"My lord, this person did not support our department and ran away, causing heavy casualties to our department. I request his execution!"

Wu Sangui, covered in blood, returned to the camp of the Ming army.There were bayonet cuts on his armor, especially the blood oozing from the white cloth that was simply wrapped, which shows the brutality of the battle at that time.

"The Fu Liao army wants to surround us. I also want to preserve our strength, otherwise we will have more soldiers die!" Zu Dashou's general argued.

"Your uncle, it is clear that you are cowardly and afraid of death!" Wu Sangui couldn't help swearing in front of his father and other generals, and almost punched him!

"Okay, now that the reinforcements of the Liao Army have arrived, they have advanced Western artillery and pose a huge threat to us. This is not the time for internal strife!" Zu Dashou said sternly, "Let's deprive him of his official position for the time being, and wait until we return Jinzhou City will make a decision."

"Brother-in-law, there are only five or six thousand Liao troops who came to aid us. They are well-prepared and under-attacked, so we don't have to be too afraid." Wu Xiang said from the side, "Gui'er is also considered brave in battle this time, although he lost about a thousand. There are not enough troops, but the blood of our Ningyuan Army has been brought out, which is enough to revive the army."

When a group of officers was planning how to deal with the reinforcements from the Liao Army, a messenger from the direction of Jinzhou City walked in.

"Supervisor Yuan has an order. If Xining Fort cannot be attacked, the whole army will retreat to Jinzhou City to consolidate the city's defenses." The messenger brought Yuan Chonghuan's news.

"Could it be that our efforts to attack for so many days are in vain?" Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang asked in surprise.

The main force of Yuan Chonghuan's Ming army was not ready yet, and he even issued an order to withdraw the troops.

"According to the news from the spies on the grassland, the Liao Army has captured Lin Danhan of the Golden Family, and is gathering dozens of Mongolian tribes. It is possible to mobilize tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry to go south at any time! This expedition has failed, and we can only preserve our strength and continue to defend Ningyuan Defensive lines are the only way to last!" said the messenger.

"Oh my God, the Liao army is actually trying to reorganize the prairie. It's even crazier than the Jurchens. What kind of enemy we will face in the future..." Zu Dashou couldn't believe it when he heard the Liao army's attempt .

For thousands of years, any force that has unified the prairie has the capital to compete in the Central Plains. As long as there is a difference in chess, the cavalry will soon be able to drive straight along the Liaoxi Corridor, completely irresistible.

The most disgusting thing is...

"We seem to have lost the best chance to curb the development and growth of the Fuliao army... we can only hope that they will be divided..." Zu Dashou was a little depressed.

The attack on Xining Fort this time was held back by more than 1000 Liao Army troops. Five to six thousand reinforcements easily defeated Wu Sangui's blocking force, allowing him to see clearly this new force that was more terrifying than the Eight Banners of the Houjin Dynasty.

In the military tent, some Mongolian generals following Ningyuan's army heard the news that Lin Dan Khan had been captured alive by Chu Yun, and looked at each other with complicated expressions on their faces.

"Although we took the initiative to attack this time and didn't get any benefits, the loss was only 2000 people and a batch of food, and there was no injury. After I lead the regiment recruited from the customs, we will retreat in batches. I believe that even if the Liao Army has powerful artillery, it will not be so stupid as to attack our well-defended Jinzhou City." Wu Xiang said.

"That's the only way." Zu Dashou gave up his plan to continue besieging Xining Fort, and retreated with his army.

Xu Fuzuo, the guard of Xining Fort, stood on the top of the wall, looked at the formation of the Ming army that was slowly retreating, and then looked at the scattered corpses below Xining Fort. What if there is a plague?"

"Do we need to go out and pursue?" the adjutant of Xiningbao asked.

"The marines outside the city have no intention of chasing after us. If we catch up, we will never return? Just sticking to the military exploits of Xining Fort is enough for us to complete this year's assessment. This year we will not be promoted. , I will also get a long salary, hey..." Xu Fuzou was very satisfied with the battle situation.

Thanks to the Ming army's lack of all-or-nothing determination and the powerful artillery at the top of the city, the defenders stationed at Xining Fort suffered limited casualties under the siege.

"Why didn't the people from the Admiralty take the opportunity to chase and kill them? The Ming army is retreating. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I have 6000 or [-] people, I will definitely catch up and kill the enemy!" said the adjutant.

"Fuck you, that's why Liu Wang was able to become the commander of the new army. This is a very calm person. He never advances easily, but fights steadily. He doesn't think about small fights at the tactical level. He pays attention to What is important is to achieve strategic goals through tactical adjustments, do you understand?"

"The Ming army of 3 people, let alone people, is 3 pigs. If you are in a hurry, it will bite you. Our Liao army relies on cannons and is a tight formation. If the Ming army has not been defeated In the event of defeat, chasing the Ming army would cause the troops to disperse, and we would lose these advantages. If the Ming army has a brave general who takes the initiative to lead a counterattack, [-] people will not have a chance to defeat us.” Xu Fuzuo eloquently said Come on, "If I were Liu Wang, I would have achieved my goal of breaking the siege. I should either stop advancing here, or follow the Ming army and drive them away without haste."

"I see. It seems that I was too impatient. We have been winning battles recently, and almost thought that we were invincible." The adjutant said embarrassingly.

"Don't be discouraged, as long as you use your brain, there is really nothing in this area that can resist the existence of our Liao army." Xu Fuzuo said.

"Our marines are about to march towards Jinzhou City. Your infantry battalion is requested to stick to Xining Fort and provide appropriate support."

The soldiers of the Ministry of the Navy entered Xining Fort, took a short rest, and then pulled the cannons, preparing to attack Jinzhou City.

"The Admiralty is crazy. It is obviously fighting at sea, but they want to go to land to take credit with us, and they are going to attack Jinzhou City?" The infantry of Xining Fort felt that the infantry of the Admiralty who came to reinforce them was crazy.

It's okay to expel the [-] Ming army during the reinforcements, but they even took the initiative to provoke the Ningyuan defense line with an army of [-]?Who gave them the courage?

"My lord, didn't you say that Liu Wang is a calm person? He looks a little crazy. I heard that the Admiralty Department has no less lunatics than our Army Department..." The adjutant watched the flag of the Admiralty Department waving to the west, and couldn't help Squeezed a cold sweat for them.

"Maybe it was influenced by the military lord... We were beaten for no reason, so we have to go there to get back, right?" Xu Fuzuo was lying when he said that he was not nervous. So I'm going to slap the Ming Dynasty in the face.
