Chapter 415 bypass

"Leadership ability?"

"Yes, the ability to lead the army. The Beijing camp has never been defeated in successive battles. The British father and son are naturally the first to do their part, but Xu Zhi'an is also the most dazzling presence among the generals."

"So, we can't take the credit for this time?"

"I'm afraid there is little hope." Yin Guoding smiled and shook his head.

"But Qin Zongbing and Brother Lin's leadership level is not bad at all, and there are such elite soldiers as white soldiers. It is unknown who will win the battle!"

Mu Tianbo said unconvinced.

It took them more than half a year to suppress the rebellion, and they were still a little bit unhappy when they got their first victory and were robbed by others.

"Haha, Lord. Your Majesty never fights uncertain battles. Although only 1 people came to manage this time, they can definitely sweep the entire Zheng Dynasty. We will definitely not be able to do this."

"why?"

"Weapons and equipment, although I haven't seen them with my own eyes, the firearms equipped by this army must be extremely destructive!"

"Is it possible that everyone has this flintlock gun?"

"No! As early as on the Liaodong battlefield, the soldiers of the Beijing camp had been equipped with a large number of new muskets called Minie, which were more powerful, fired faster, and had a longer range! Far surpassed our flintlock guns. This kind The musket has basically become the exclusive standard equipment for the Yongwei Camp and the Beijing Camp for the relatives of His Majesty."

"Is it more powerful than the one His Majesty rewarded you?"

"This?" Yin Guoding patted Chongzhen 4329 on his back and laughed. "Leaving aside the power of the two guns, the Mines musket is much slower than the Chongzhen 4329 in terms of reloading speed alone. But you also know that the craftsmanship of this new musket is extremely complicated, and it may be quite difficult to make. If It's not that His Majesty has favored me, and it's impossible for him to reward me!"

As he spoke, a proud smile appeared on Yin Guoding's face.

Look, this is the holy family!

Seeing the stinky smile on Yin Guoding's face, Mu Tianbo felt sore in his heart.

No, when the war is over, you must go to His Majesty, and you have to play with it even if you don't want any rewards.

"Old Yin, it's endless, right?"

Even Ma Xianglin beside him couldn't stand it anymore.

"Haha, I can't help it! I can't help it!" Yin Guoding rubbed his hands embarrassedly.

"Okay, don't talk about those useless things. Now that Xu Zhi'an has landed, according to the established plan, we should counterattack. Lord, what do you think?"

"Zheng Kai's troops should still be about [-], which is double ours. It is impossible to wipe them out in a short period of time. I think we can only advance steadily." Mu Tianbo thought for a while and said. "However, in the past few days, they have dug a lot of trenches outside and built many wooden walls two people high with trees. I'm afraid they have already taken precautions against us."

"The fortifications they built on the east side of the Taojiang River, let's go from the west side and bypass their defenses?"

"Hey! In this case, they can only escape from the tortoise shell they built, because they definitely dare not let us enter the hinterland of Jiaozhi like this. They cannot bear the consequences!"

"My lord is right, so let's do this?"

"If Brother Xianglin has no objection, let's do this. When is the counterattack time?"

"How about Mao time?"

"Yes!" Ma Xianglin agreed.

What Mu Tianbo said was consistent with what he thought. Over the past six months, Mu Tianbo's growth rate has been rapid, and he has initially possessed the excellent qualities of a commander.

After the counterattack strategy was decided, several people discussed some details together, and then summoned the middle and high-level generals under their command, and deployed combat missions.

On the second day at [-]:[-], Mu Tianbo and Ma Xianglin got out of the tent fully clothed.

The news of the counterattack had been announced last night, and the soldiers had already been called up, and most of them were silently packing their things.

The two patrolled around and asked the soldiers to distribute breakfast.

In order not to attract the attention of the enemy, there was no fire for breakfast, and they ate ham sausage and rice balls made in advance.

At Maoshi, all the soldiers were lined up and ready to go.

Mu Tianbo and Ma Xianglin whispered and gave the soldiers the order to attack.

Today's battle will be led by them.

It was just dawn at this time, and the sun had not yet poured onto the ground.

Three thousand infantry quietly reached the other side of the river on a suspension bridge upstream, then climbed over the damaged wall of the village, and gathered outside the wall to stand by.Behind them, a thousand musketeers, and then, a hundred grenade throwers.Then there are thousands of infantry behind.

Naturally, the first soldiers to climb over the wall did not attack the opponent's camp, but went outside in advance to protect a thousand musketeers and grenade throwers.Their numbers are at a disadvantage, and there are not many firearms. These thousand musketeers can be regarded as the top priority.There can be no mistakes.

However, Zheng Kai's troops failed to attack several times, and had already retreated three miles away to station. In addition, they had been staying behind for a long time, and Zheng Kai's side was not very vigilant.

At night, Yin Guoding dispatched several experts to quietly kill the soldiers in charge of the investigation.So up to now, their movements have not attracted Zheng Kai's attention.

The soldiers under Mu Tianbo quickly assembled outside the wall of the village, and now they didn't need to deliberately hide their footsteps, they rushed towards the opponent quickly by the light of the morning light.

Ma Xianglin led the white-armed soldiers to follow closely behind and followed their lead.

Since this day, the Ming army has not taken any unnecessary actions other than passive defense.

They made no move, and Zheng Kai did not plan to attack again. He just kept building fortifications, digging trenches and building walls, and instead became the defensive side.Zheng Kai wasn't too worried that the other party would suddenly attack. It didn't mean that he had relaxed his vigilance. He just thought that the other party would not make any big moves before waiting for reinforcements to arrive, because in his eyes, there was really no way that more than 1 soldiers would go to Jiaozhi frantically. Hinterland run.

Facts have proved that he was thinking too simply.

These guys not only want to run to their hinterland, they are even coveting their capital.If he knew, he would definitely not be sleeping as peacefully as he is now.

The movement of the Ming army finally alarmed Zheng Kai's people. The sentry soldiers stared blankly at the Ming army marching across the river for a long time before realizing that the other party had completely crossed the border between the two countries and entered their territory. territory.

"Enemy attack!!!"

The soldier shouted loudly.

His gong-like voice was so abrupt in the quiet morning that it awakened many sleeping soldiers.

These soldiers came out of the tent in a hurry with their trousers and clothes on, and looked around with their heads stretched out one by one.

"Where is the enemy?"
