The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 339 Small countries are only used to set off big countries
Many times, when something is beyond a person's knowledge, it is often attributed to a miracle or some kind of incredible thing.

Even if Orlanc is like this now, he has never seen this kind of weapon before, and at the first moment he thought that this kind of weapon was some kind of witchcraft or his own hallucination.

"What is this? What kind of weapon is this? This is witchcraft, this is witchcraft!"

Orlanc was riding on the horse, his face was full of panic and horror.

The people around them kept falling to the ground, like harvested wheat, they were unstoppable.

The splattered blood hit his face like rain.

A face became scarlet and washed with blood.

"Whoosh!"

Just as he was yelling, a bullet flew towards him.

However, his luck is really good.

The bullet did not hit him, but hit a soldier in front of him.

"Ahhh!!!"

The soldiers screamed and fell off their horses.

Orlanc couldn't stop the horse, and the horse's hoof stepped on the soldier's head.

The screams stopped abruptly, just like the sound of beating a watermelon.

Under the horse's hooves, brains and blood splattered everywhere.

The white brains, stained with red blood, turned pink.

The cerebral cortex has not died yet, it is still twitching constantly.

Perhaps at this time, the neurotransmitters in the brain are still transmitting information, wanting to save this life.

However, all this is in vain.

Niu Ben looked at the enemies dying in front of him, his face was full of excitement.

This kind of battle is the most adrenaline rush.

After joining the army for so many years, Niu Ben likes this kind of battle the most.

Don't worry about your own problems, you can kill the enemy from a distance, just like shooting a target, one bullet can kill an enemy with one aim.

"Brothers, let me shoot on time. These bullets are precious. We don't have supplies. If you don't want to use knives to fight the enemy, save some for me!"

Niu Ben looked at the red-eyed soldiers around him, and hurriedly shouted.

There are still a lot of bullets today, but not many bullets have been consumed during this journey.

No matter what kind of enemies they encounter, they are always wiped out in the shortest time.

In addition, he didn't deliberately find the enemy, so there are still a lot of bullets left.

But the road is difficult, and there is still a long way to go. It would not be a good thing to consume all the bullets here.

"Stop the machine gun, stop the machine gun!"

Niu Ben looked at the soldiers holding machine guns and shouted.

The battlefield ahead is almost done, most of the enemies have been eliminated, and the cavalry's charging momentum has been stopped. Unless you want to kill the enemy on a large scale, machine guns are useless, and rifles are enough.

The machine gunner couldn't hear Niu Ben's words, and pulled the trigger with bloodshot eyes.

The deputy shooter next to him was still adding fuel to the fire, shouting excitedly: "Grandma, hit me, hit me, kill this group of sons of bitches, this group of sons of sons of bitches, still want to mess with us, really The mouse wishing the cat a new year, I want to die! If you can't use your fingers, if you run out of strength, let me do it!"

The deputy shooter was lying on the ground, his body twisting constantly.

Looking at it like this, I really want to try it myself.

"Snapped!"

Niu Ben took off his hat and pointed at the deputy shooter's head.

"Let you come, you still want to try? Bullets are such a waste, shouting so much, you two have your ears plugged with cow hair? Stop it for me!"

Niu Ben drank loudly and kicked the machine gunner's ass at the same time.

Only then did the machine gunner stop, looking at Niu Ben with a little naivety.

"Why are you looking at me? Bullets aren't used that way, save me some!" Niu Ben scolded.

"understood!"

The machine gunner reluctantly withdrew the machine gun.

Niu Ben's scolding and beatings are like the elders caring for the younger generation. It seems a bit harsh and more relaxed.

But Orlanc on the battlefield did not feel this way. At this moment, he only felt that he was in hell.

The war horse under his crotch had been beaten to the ground long ago, and its internal organs flowed all over the floor, mixed with human internal organs and blood, making it impossible to tell which were human and which were horses.

He lay in the blood, struggling constantly.

His hands were waving indiscriminately like a drowned person.

Under the chaos, he grabbed a "straw" in his hand and kept pulling.

It wasn't straw at all, but a small section of intestine.

There are not many standing cavalry left.

Even if there were still a few fish that slipped through the net, they escaped early.

The scene in front of me is really unacceptable, like hell, no matter who goes up there, they will die here.

They couldn't bear the bloody smell, turned around and fled.

The infantry following the cavalry, because they were a long distance away from the cavalry, only heard the gunfire ahead, and did not know what was going on.

So, they speeded up, wanting to see what happened.

Just as they were about to approach the battlefield, a cavalry came from the front and stopped in front of them.

"Stop, stop, hell is ahead, hell is ahead, it is the lair of demons, stop quickly, if you go, you will die, if you go, you will die!"

The cavalryman was covered in blood and kept shouting in front of these infantrymen.

However, if you haven't seen such a scene with your own eyes, how can you believe what the cavalryman said?
The infantry commander shouted: "You deserter, what a devil, all soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy!"

The infantry commander gave the cavalry a cold look, and led the infantry behind him, rushing forward.

Seeing such a decisive infantry commander, the cavalry turned around and ran away.

Some people don't look back until they hit the south wall. Such people should experience the horror of death for themselves.

It's hard to persuade a goddamn ghost.

The cavalryman waved the whip in his hand and went further and further away.

The hundreds of cavalry on the frontal battlefield simply couldn't stand the massacre on this scale, and not long after, there was nothing left.

Niu Ben and the others naturally wouldn't vent their anger on the corpse, or keep shooting at the corpse.

Just as the soldiers were about to clean up the battlefield, a bigger puff of smoke came from the front.

The smoke and dust raised by the infantry when they were running was far less than the smoke and dust raised by the horses, but it couldn't stand up to many people.

These thousands of infantry running in the desert are much more imposing than the hundreds of cavalry.

Niu Ben hurriedly came to the previous hillside, raised the binoculars in his hand, and looked at the place where the smoke and dust rose.

Teams of infantrymen appeared in Niu Ben's sight, and Niu Ben's calm face turned murderous again.

"There are really people who are not afraid of death. Since you are so fearless, then I will not be polite. Let's see if it is your backbone or the gun in my hand!"

As he said that, Niu Ben looked at the soldiers below and shouted: "Another enemy is coming, get ready to fight, this time they are infantry, bring them closer and fight, kill them as much as possible!"

This kind of large-scale killing of enemy men is Niu Ben's favorite thing to do.

In an era of underdeveloped productivity, low birth rate, and high death rate, male males are a direct sign of a country's prosperity.

There is a huge gap between a country with a million men and a country with tens of millions of men.

The enemy's men died a lot, and the national power would naturally decline.

As for women, it's different.

He had studied in the Daqin Military Academy, and what Sun Jie gave them was that in China, it was a death penalty for raping a woman, robbing the common people, trampling young crops, and intentionally destroying fertile land.
The Great Qin Army has strict discipline, and stipulates various regulations, but there is no regulation on how to treat the enemy and the barbarians.

As the saying goes, if there is no prohibition, you can do it. Naturally, Niu Ben is not a saint. He is boring when he is outside, so he naturally wants to have some fun.

But what is certain is that in the not-too-distant future, the race on this land will undergo tremendous changes.

It looks cruel, but in this age when the law of the jungle prevails, it's nothing more than normal.

From ancient times to the present, I don't know how many powerful nations have disappeared in history.

Only the strongest can live to the end and have the last laugh.

Load the rifle and aim at the enemy.

Against infantry, machine guns are somewhat redundant.

Niu Ben also itched his hands, took a rifle from his subordinates, and aimed at an enemy in front of him.

Tap the index finger lightly, and the bullet is ejected.

It whizzed past and hit the infantryman's chest.

This infantryman is a young man, and there is a young and beautiful girl waiting for him in his hometown.

It's a pity that all the bright future comes to an abrupt end at this moment.

It was as if his body had been hit with a sledgehammer, and he froze there.

Immediately afterwards, a piercing pain hit.

Just when he subconsciously wanted to cover it with his hands, his eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.

A life is withered.

Niu Ben didn't feel any guilt, he just lightly carved a horizontal line on the butt of the gun.

There are already ten horizontal bars on this gun.

Fresh life, at this moment, is just a bullet, just a horizontal bar.

The battle against the infantry didn't last long, and it ended in about a quarter of an hour.

For those soldiers who fled, Niu Ben didn't let anyone chase them, but let them go.

Chasing them down would not only waste time, but also affect the plan.

Most of those left were wounded soldiers. Niu Ben had no sympathy for these people, and the bayonet in his hand stabbed their chests mercilessly.

"In your next life, remember, don't reincarnate into these small countries, you must choose a powerful empire, otherwise, you will not have a good life.

The significance of the existence of a small country is to show the glory and martial arts of a big country, just to set off a big country! Niu Ben shook his head, and then stabbed the bayonet in another wounded soldier's chest.

The wounded soldier's eyes were wide open, his hands were firmly holding the bayonet in Niu Ben's hand, and he shouted at the top of his voice.

Maybe it's unwillingness, maybe it's cursing, or maybe it's remorse.

But Niu Ben couldn't understand, he just felt noisy, and the wounded soldier lost his breath when the bayonet in his hand was rolled.

By the time Niu Ben left with his people, the blood on the ground had seeped into the ground, leaving only corpses on the ground.

There was a strong wind again, blowing boundless yellow sand, covering them, and the place returned to normal.

Three days later, Niu Ben and the others had already left, and a group of cavalry came here cautiously.

They were digging here under the leadership of several deserters.

Not long after, one dead body after another was dug out by them.

That hideous death kept impacting their hearts, making them unable to be at peace.

A few days later, the news here reached Agra.

This news shocked Shah Jahan.

Thousands of soldiers were almost wiped out, which has never happened since Shah Jahan came to the throne.

This is not a big battle, let alone a city battle, but a thousand-man squad, how could there be such a large number of casualties?

Shah Jahan was terrified in his heart. If he hadn't learned that these people had gone all the way west, he might not be able to sleep well at night.

Just in case, he sent a large number of spies to the east.

He even sent his second son, Shah Shuja, to Bengal to break through to the roof of the world.

Sun Jie had no way of knowing about the war that broke out in the desert, unless he waited until Niu Ben and the others returned.

Jinling has also entered spring, and everything is sprouting.

The location of the palace is on the agenda.

During so many days in Jinling, Sun Jie has been living in ordinary houses.

He didn't feel anything, but the officials under his command were dull.

It is really unreasonable for the emperor of the most powerful empire in the world to live in a private house.

The imperial palace in Jinling has been in disrepair for a long time, and it has long been uninhabitable.

The cost of repairs can even be rebuilt, and there is no need for repairs.

In fact, since the application of cement concrete and steel bars, the construction cost of buildings has decreased day by day.

When the Jinling Palace and the Peking Palace were built, giant trees had to be transported from places such as the South and even Vietnam. The felling and transportation costs of giant trees were surprisingly high, and most of the expenses were spent here.

In fact, starting from the Qin and Han Dynasties, the area of ​​the imperial palace showed a decreasing trend.

The Epang Palace in the Qin Dynasty "covered more than three hundred miles, and the Lishan Mountain was built in the north and folded in the west, separating the sky and the sun". , although the Daming Palace in the Tang Dynasty was not small in scale, it was far inferior to that in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

In the Ming Dynasty, although the Forbidden City was very large, it was much inferior to the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties.

In the Qing Dynasty, the large-scale construction of the imperial palace had come to an end, and all kinds of gardens could only be built.

This is the case precisely because of the drastic reduction in building materials.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Chang'an was surrounded by eight waters, and there were virgin forests and towering giant trees everywhere, so there was no need to worry about materials.

The Qin people and the Han people can get towering giant trees everywhere, and the palaces they built are naturally huge. During the Tang Dynasty, Guanzhong gradually became tired. By the time of the Ming Dynasty, all the livable places in the north and south were basically developed, and the towering giant trees became more and more popular. less, unable to support a huge palace, in order to save costs, the palace can only be built smaller and smaller.

The application of cement and steel bars makes the support materials no longer limited to wood, and without transportation costs and mining costs, the cost will naturally decrease.
