Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Thirty thousand against 18, such a war has not never happened in history.

For example, the Battle of Guandu, such as the Battle of Chibi, are all classics of winning more with less. Leaving aside the influence of environmental factors in the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao was able to defeat Yuan Shao's 10,000+ army with [-] in the Battle of Guandu, not only because of his strategy When it comes to effect, it is because Cao Cao's soldiers are of better quality and more elite.

Zhao Yuqi looked at the shogunate army marching slowly across the uneven queue and couldn't help shaking her head: "Soldiers are not many but fine, generals are not courageous but resourceful. Dongying loves to learn my Chinese culture and regards the Three Kingdoms as a classic." , but understanding some of them is a dead end."

The lieutenant general said: "These people in Dongying have very strange minds. They are all thinking of going to death for benevolence, or all kinds of conspiracies and dangerous tricks. It seems that they rarely think about defeating the enemy in a dignified manner."

At this time, the army of the shogunate was advancing in a large area, and the number of tens of thousands would reach the sky, and there was no end in sight. Between the rare low hills between Edo and Yokohama, the [-] troops of the shogunate spread out The darkness seemed to be endless, and the front troops composed of tens of thousands of azugaru staggered back and forth like a raging tide.

The strange flags and the weird roar enveloped the Ming army with invisible pressure.

One hundred thousand troops, this is the limit that the shogunate can mobilize. In order to mobilize so many troops, he even took the time to let the Ming army complete the landing and set up camp. It is elite.

Such an army, even a tentative attack, has an astonishing momentum.

It's a pity that the soldiers of the Ming army didn't care about such oppression at all. Compared with the shogunate army, the soldiers of the Ming army had experienced more battles, and even the internal drills of the new army were more terrifying than this.

And Zhao Yuqi seemed to regard the 18 shogunate army as nothing. The [-] Ming army laid out a formation, and with the support of sufficient ammunition, not to mention the [-] shogunate army, Zhao Yuqi would not be afraid even if the [-] shogunate army came together.

The captains shouted orders: "Stand still! Aim!"

The general of the shogunate looked at his forwards who were fleeing in embarrassment, and waved his hands expressionlessly. Soon, bows and arrows shot out from behind, nailing these fleeing guys to death in front of the army formation.

"Rush forward, for the general!"

Such a volley that broke out in a very short period of time not only swept away a large number of soldiers of the shogunate army, but also interrupted the morale of the shogunate army and woke up the shogunate army above.

The elite of the shogunate army with well-equipped armor began to advance. Iron gunners and archers accounted for more than [-]% of the shogunate army. Obviously, the shogunate army also attaches great importance to long-range strike power. These iron gunners will also shoot in multiple stages, but they are weapons in their hands. The quality is not so good compared to the Ming army.

"Send a signal to let the two sides launch an attack to suppress the Ming army. Our artillery will also open fire. We cannot let the Ming army attack our morale." Will continue to be shaken by blows, at this time the only option is to fight back!
The deployed shogunate artillery began to fight back.

Especially under the suppression of nearly two hundred Ming army artillery on the frontal battlefield, the shogunate army could only try to ignore the distance and fire salvos, trying to use dense lead bullets and gunpowder smoke to obscure the Ming army's sight so as to attack close-in.

Following the transmission of orders, the artillery fire from the two wings took the lead, and the artillerymen no longer cared about the ability of the tiger squatting artillery to fire a large amount of artillery fire in a very short period of time and then retreated. Immediately afterwards, the [-]th Battalion of new troops lined up neatly, five thousand new troops The army was arranged in three rows, the first row squatted, and the last two rows staggered. The three rows of muskets aimed at each other, waiting for the order to fire.

"Kill!"

For the artillerymen of the Ming army, the shogunate army in a dense formation is undoubtedly a very easy target. Those heavy general artillery are not needed, and solid bullets alone are enough to destroy the confidence of these shogunate troops.

The high-spirited vanguard of the shogunate army was immediately demoralized by the hundreds of shells, and the rolling shells pierced through the tight formations. Although these ashigaru were still advancing under the roar and urging of the samurai, Fear has begun to creep among them.

Twenty thousand?Or thirty thousand?Or fifty thousand?

"Shotgun loading, tiger crouching gun fire!"

Whether the ashigaru or the archers and iron gunners of the shogunate army, they were baptized by artillery before they could get in touch with the Ming army, and then they were fired by the Ming army's muskets like waves. The ashigaru of the shogunate army were covered by dense barrage, and then fell down in pieces.

Although the progress on the frontal battlefield is not obvious, the shogunate troops on both sides are about to rush to the two wings of the Ming army. At that time, the two wings of the Ming army will inevitably be impacted, and the chaotic Ming army will not be able to continue to maintain a frontal formation.

After all, the Ming army only had 3 people, while the shogunate army had a full [-].

The shogunate general stood on a high ground and looked at the front. The elite shogunate army had begun to shoot each other with the Ming army, but the Ming army's three-stage shooting from 120 paces away was undoubtedly suppressing the shogunate army. After all, the effective design distance of the shogunate army was no more than Only [-] steps, these [-] steps are the insurmountable natural moat for the shogunate army.

One hundred paces, eighty paces, the tide-like ashigaru and samurai of the shogunate could rush into the Ming army's wings and disrupt the thin formation of the Ming army in the blink of an eye. The general of the shogunate even saw victory beckoning to him.

At the same time, Zhao Yuqi watched the cavalry of the shogunate army enter the battlefield and gave an order: "Order the two wings, launch a counter-charge after a round of volley, fly Vulcan crows into the frontal battlefield, the second heavy artillery battalion into the frontal battlefield, the fifth town The first association is ready to harvest, and it is time to end."

Now the shogun thinks the time has come.

With the death of a large number of companions around them and the mournful wailing on the ground, the broken limbs and smoke and blood on the battlefield caused the ashigaru of the shogunate army to collapse. They fled backwards crying and completely gave up their mission. It was the warriors who acted as commanders who were powerless. After all, the warriors who dared to move forward fell under the bullets of the Ming army.

At that time, the cavalry of the shogunate army can launch a charge, completely destroy the front of the Ming army, and defeat the [-] Ming army!

A tiger crouching cannon fired a large number of projectiles, and the dense projectiles directly sifted the shogunate troops who were charging at the front. The charging shogunate troops seemed to have encountered some invisible attack. They fell to the ground leaving a lot of blank space.

The artillery shells plowed bloodstains in the army formation of the shogunate army. These solid shells rolled and jumped, and every time they came into contact with the shogunate army, they brought up a piece of broken limbs.

Under the panoramic view from the sky, everything on the battlefield was clearly visible to the Ming army.

After the six battalions completed the first wave of shooting, the second batch of six battalions in the rear fired again at the front. The soldiers of the new army of the twelve battalions used continuous firepower to cooperate with the rear artillery suppression in a very short period of time. Completely defeated the vanguard of the shogunate army.

As the order was issued, there was a roar that could cover the battlefield, and more than 50 heavy general cannons roared one after another. After the deafening roar, there were pieces of flames rising and exploding!
The flowering bomb fell into the artillery of the shogunate army and exploded, and the flames swallowed the artillery and gunners of the shogunate army in an instant. These gunners of the shogunate army were reduced to pieces before they could even scream.

Day after day of training, coupled with the research and development of paper-bound fixed-case bullets, allowed the soldiers of the new army to complete two shots within one minute in theory, and they can also complete two shots within one and a half minutes on the battlefield today. volley.

But this kind of attack did not stop the shogunate army. Instead, they blushed and continued to charge, and soon the sub-cannons also opened fire. The firepower network formed by the tiger squatting cannons and the sub-cannons suppressed these crazy shogunate soldiers. The officers and soldiers of the new army have also been lined up neatly, and the soldiers of the new army of the [-]th Battalion of the Association lined up, looking at the ashigaru and samurai of the shogunate who rushed over frantically, with indifferent expressions.

As the order was issued, the coordinates that had been marked long ago were sent to each artillery battalion, and soon another artillery position opened fire, pouring a large number of shells on the frontal battlefield. The two artillery battalions had nearly two hundred light general artillery pieces. The bombardment successfully suppressed the offensive of the shogunate army. At the same time, a battalion of heavy general artillery was ready. These heavy general artillery were improved enough to fire the latest Ming army's flowering bombs. They were the real killers of the Ming army.

"The first association in the sixth town defends on the left side, and the first association in the eighth town defends on the right side. Concentrate the tiger squatting guns and sub-group artillery on both sides to cover and bombard the shogunate troops."

At this time, there were more than [-] shogunate troops attacking on both sides. They attacked from both sides and cooperated with the shogunate army attacking from the front. Destroy any Japanese army.

"For the glory of the Sakamoto family!"

At a distance of [-] paces, Zhao Yuqi dared not say how accurate the volley could be, but within [-] paces, even the cavalry of the Ming army were unwilling to bear the volley easily.

"Dongying, a small country with few people, is born with small energy and narrow vision. There are tens of thousands of people in the front to test, and there are detours on both sides secretly. They have too little experience." Zhao Yuqi watched the performance of the shogunate army quietly. Zhao Yuqi saw through all the temptations of the army.

The bombardment of nearly two hundred light shogun cannons caused great damage to the shogunate army. No one can remain indifferent to death, and these ashigaru warriors of the shogunate army are no exception. When the shells destroy the bodies of their companions, they will burn Blood splashed on their faces, and when the flesh and blood wreckage appeared beside him, the severe threat of death was enough to shake the spirits of these people, and some of them who could not pass the will even collapsed on the spot and even went crazy.

The light general gun battalion opened fire, and the roar of nearly a hundred light general guns sounded like thunder on the battlefield for a while. The flames flickered and the smoke rose. Array.

Now that the elite of the shogunate are dispatched, it means that the temptation is over and the real war has begun.

Just one round of intensive artillery fire destroyed more than [-]% of the Western artillery of the shogunate army. Such power made the generals of the shogunate and the nobles of the samurai family unable to bear the change of color: Are the artillery of the Ming army so terrible? !
However, this is just the beginning.

Zhao Yuqi didn't care about the temptation of tens of thousands of people head-on, and the troops he sent to fight were nothing more than an alliance.

A stone fell from a high place with a bamboo tube, and soon the people waiting below took the bamboo tube away and handed it to the artillery position. The captain of the artillery took out a note from the bamboo tube, with a series of numbers marked on it, and the pair accepted the new army. Artillery officer teaching Artillery captains with professional artillery qualities say that the content is clear at a glance, which is the coordinates of attack.

The troops deployed by the Shogunate Army on both sides launched an offensive. These troops equipped with bamboo spears, samurai swords and bows and arrows belonged to miscellaneous troops, and there were many ronin mixed in, and the biggest role was to draw the energy of the Ming army.

Soon, another round of artillery shells hit, and two rounds of artillery covered and destroyed most of the artillery of the shogunate army, cutting off the long-range strike firepower of the shogunate army, but the artillery of the Ming army continued to fire to suppress the offensive of the shogunate army.

Looking at the piles of corpses in front of them, looking at the broken limbs around them, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the remaining shogunate soldiers panicked and feared. They looked at the indifferent soldiers of the Ming army who were only sixty steps away. , a taut string snapped.

On the flanking battlefield, the tiger squatting cannon and the mother and child cannons have already demonstrated their power. The tiger cannon can shoot [-] paces, and the mother and child cannon has a range of [-] paces. Facing the overwhelming shogunate army rushing over, the artillery is enough to teach these minds to stay In the period of cold weapons, the shogunate army who handed over short-handed soldiers was a man.

This is not arrogance, but self-confidence. This is the self-confidence that comes from the invincibility of the new army of the Ming Dynasty. It is the confidence brought by the powerful national power of the Ming Dynasty.

The shogun told all the ashigaru samurai and nobles of the shogunate army with such an attitude that no one is allowed to retreat!

After the shogunate army rushed to 120 paces with the gunfire, the Ming army artillery stopped. When the shogunate army charged to [-] paces, the Ming army musketeers did not fire. When the shogunate army rushed to [-] paces in surprise, they saw the soldiers of the Ming army Holding muskets, they showed puzzled expressions at this moment, but at this moment they had no brains to think so much.

And there is an upper limit to the ability of an army to withstand casualties. The shogunate army has [-], but how many casualties can they bear?

The officers and soldiers of the new army of the twelve battalions were arranged in a staggered front and back, and they marched slowly in a good formation under the leadership of the captains of each battalion, and soon the light generals opened fire.

The artillery of the shogunate army should be called large cylinders to be precise. The range of these artillery pieces is not high, and their power is not very good, but the shogunate army also has high-quality artillery, such as the excellent artillery circulated by Westerners. These artillery were brought by the shogunate army. At least, it was these Xiyi-made artillery that fired at this time. After all, the situation of Datong was clear to the family.

"Fire!"

After the shogunate artillery returned fire, the smoke on the battlefield became thicker. With the sound of rumbling artillery, the elite troops deployed by the shogunate army finally moved.

And the firearms left by the Ming army will greatly strengthen the power of the shogunate, so that the shogunate will continue to be great!
"Let the Banners attack, it's time to end this battle." The general of the shogunate seemed to be sure of victory. With a wave of his hand, the most elite and powerful Banner warriors of the Shogunate army were dispatched. Volume, the banner samurai with long spears and iron cannons is the most elite force of the shogunate, and every time they are dispatched, they can destroy all resistance.

However, at this time, with the order to shoot, five thousand musketeers fired in unison!
Explosive roar resounded on the two-winged battlefield, tens of thousands of muskets fired at the same time even covered the sound of the cannons, as if half of the charging shogunate army was swept away by an invisible giant axe, and in an instant, ashigaru and samurai fell to the ground , Gunpowder smoke filled the air, blood flowed into rivers, after a round of volleys, the ashigaru and samurai of the shogunate army were stunned.

After quickly adjusting the entire battalion according to the coordinates, the artillery captain waved the command flag in his hand: "Fire!"

This is not because Zhao Yuqi has the eyes of God, but because in the sky, the hot air balloon of the Ming army is already in place.

Facing the full-scale attack of the shogunate army, Zhao Yuqi did not change her face: "The Second Association of the Fifth Town followed up the front, the second light artillery battalion opened fire to suppress the offensive of the shogunate army, and the first heavy artillery battalion destroyed the artillery of the shogunate army."

Amidst the roar of the artillery, the officers and soldiers of the twelve battalions of the new army had already approached their own attack range.

The soldiers of the third row of the new army immediately stopped to take aim according to the order. As the captain gave the order to shoot, the soldiers of the first row fired quickly and then retreated, followed by the second row, and then the third row. The three-stage shooting method developed by general Xiping Hou Muying and passed down to this day is still very effective, especially when the soldiers of the new army are equipped with the latest muskets. This technique allows a battalion to complete the shooting in just one and a half minutes. Two triple shots.

"Set bayonet, charge!"

Accompanied by the roar, the gleaming bayonets were put on the muzzle of the gun. At this time, the musket in the hands of the new army became a sharp and deadly spear. The morale of the army, the deterrence brought by more than half of the casualties in an instant, caused the shogunate troops on the two wings to collapse like tigers descending the mountain just now. Facing the bright bayonet charge, these shogunate troops completely collapsed!
The collapsed sides are just the beginning. On the frontal battlefield, tens of thousands of soldiers of the new army also stopped shooting, and boxes of flying Vulcan crows began to show their power. Everything on the frontal battlefield was destroyed, countless meteor fire rain fell on the army formation of the shogunate army, causing a large number of casualties, and the cavalry of the shogunate army who were charging were also stopped by the artillery fire.

Screams and cries spread across the frontal battlefield. The dense flying vulcan crows destroyed the spirit of the shogunate army and broke the morale of the shogunate army, and the shooting of more than [-] artillery pieces that followed immediately blossomed The bombing also made it impossible for the shogunate army to move forward. Not only could they not assist the banner warriors to charge, but they trapped the bannermen in place and passively accepted the baptism of flying Vulcan crows and artillery. The shogunate army was defeated across the board!

Seeing the shogunate army retreating all over the mountains and plains, Zhao Yuqi issued the last command order: "The first association of the fifth town, charge."

This battle, the outcome has been decided!
