Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 286 : Chapter 122 Warning

As for the two wings are all gunners, there is nothing to say. www>

Like the Liaodong battlefield, that is, the famous Guanning Iron Cavalry Battalion. When Sun Chengzong supervised Liaodong, each battalion of car artillery battalions had nearly 2000 infantry, more than 88 cavalry, and hundreds of carts. Each battalion had 5000 cannons. Many of them are heavy-duty artillery. Sun Chuanhua bought a large number of equipment in Jesus Club and hired many Western technicians to cast them for military use. In addition to artillery, each artillery battalion also has more than [-] long and short firecrackers. , It can be said that the car artillery battalion of the Guanning Army of the Ming Army has completed the pure firearms ahead of time, and the battle battalion established by the Ming Army in Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan has never considered hand-to-hand combat with the enemy at all.

According to the method of the high-level Ming army at that time, as soon as the enemy is spotted, first use large carts to form a chariot formation, then fire the cannons and bombard them, and then fire the blunderbuss all at once.

Anyway, I just want to fight an asymmetric war and use firearms to defeat the enemy.

This idea can't be said to be completely wrong, but there are two fatal points: First, the Ming army's over-reliance on firearms led to the lack of physical training, and at the same time, it also lost the courage to fight in hand-to-hand combat.This is true from generals to ordinary soldiers. [

Then, the qualification rate of firearms is too low. After a hundred firearms go to the battlefield, 99 of them will explode within three shots. Who dares to load too much gunpowder with such firearms, and who dares to rest assured? Aim and fire?

In addition, the general training of the Ming army is insufficient, and the formation is not uniform. When encountering the enemy, these soldiers panic first, and then let go, and then they are approached by the Houjin soldiers. Once they charge, the so-called vehicle and artillery defense line of the Ming army is a complete tragedy. , the ending can only be the way of defeat and escape.

The Liaodong battlefield is closely related to Dengzhou, and many people who were present at the scene knew what happened to the Che Pao Battalion.

Looking at the configuration of the Fushan Camp, everyone felt helpless. The gunners seemed to be many, but their power was too small.

Ye Shuqing sighed: "After all, the Fushan camp is dominated by military households. It is difficult to find too many qualified archers."

It is said that military households should practice martial arts from generation to generation, whether it is riding horses, swords and guns, or bows and arrows. According to Zhu Yuanzhang's rules, at least thirty or forty households in each hundred households should learn bows and arrows.

But in today's world, it is a very solid reason for military households not to learn bows and arrows. When the commander said this, everyone nodded.

"It's not that Zhang Guohua can't find an archer, or he can't train an archer."

Everyone was discussing, but they didn't pay attention, Liu Jingyao and a group of subordinates also rushed over.

Standing at the top of the city, Liu Jingyao's face was like sinking water, and he said to the crowd in an extremely stern tone: "The Fushan camp relies on firecrackers to defeat the enemy. It looks good."

"Master Liu is saying..."

Liu Jingyao's words changed everyone's expressions, and the Chief Secretary's councilor's face suddenly changed, and he asked, "Is there something going on here in Fushan?"

"Yes," Liu Jingyao replied, "Just now Zhang Guohua reported to me that someone is colluding with pirates to attack Fushan. A large group of bandits will definitely attack tonight!"

At this moment, all the civil servants were discolored, and even the military ministers felt a little unsure.

There are more than 600 soldiers in the Fushan Camp here, and Liu Jingyao is still talking about the "big stock" of bandits. I think the number of pirates here must far exceed the number of officers and soldiers.

Thinking of the ferocity and cruelty of the pirates, everyone felt a little cramp in their calves.

Unlike thieves, thieves are active in the state capitals, trying to sell some face to local officials, killing officials to rebel, and provoking the army to chase them down is not worth it.

But pirates run rampant on the sea, killing people and stealing goods, and they don't take the imperial court seriously.The imperial court has no navy and is unable to suppress them, so although there are many civil and military officials here, it is really hard to say whether the pirates will be able to save their lives in official robes.
