Chapter 4 Cold Weapons vs. Cold Weapons

Updated: 2012-09-22

After three days of hard thinking, Shi Dayong's confidence revived again. This time he no longer placed his hope of defeating the Eight Banners of Manchuria on "introducing" future weapons, but decided to use the strong against the strong, and poison against poison. , With cold weapons against cold weapons.

Who the hell said that if the traversers want to defeat the opponent, they must open their golden fingers. What kind of tactics are they using firearms to line up and shoot? Could it be that without firearms, we Han people can't defeat those barbarians!

If that's the case, how can the cavalry of the Han Dynasty be explained when they marched across Mobei;

The only thing that matters is the theory of weapons! [

The great man said: It is always people, not weapons, that determine victory.

Once it comes, it will be safe, cold weapons can also create and change history!

What the ancestors can do, how can the descendants not do it!

Understanding one thing is very simple and difficult. Shi Dayong's understanding is the comprehension after failure, and it is also Nai's comprehension.

If he smelt out the steel and transformed the firecracker into a "gun", then he would never understand the true meaning of the reason why the Han nationality can last for thousands of years.

We can survive and we can be strong because we always believe that we cannot be truly conquered!As long as we are still bloody, everything lost will be gained again!

When we set a goal, we strive for it until we die!

.........

After facing the reality squarely, Shi Dayong began to re-examine his team, he had to be clear about his own strengths and weaknesses.

The three hundred cavalry were assigned to him by Qiu Hejia abruptly from Zu Dashou, under the command of a general named Jiang Wanli.This man is a Han native born in Eastern Liaodong, but he is not from Zu Dashou's lineage, but a subordinate of the late Wu Jinglue and Shaoshi Mangui, who joined Gaotaibao after the Guangning War.

In the change of Jisi, Man Gui died in battle at Yongding Gate in Beijing, his generals Hei Yunlong and Ma Dengyun were captured alive, and Jiang Wanli was one of Hei Yunlong's subordinates.

Because the commander-in-chief Man Gui died in battle, and the chief general Hei Yunlong was captured, Jiang Wanli and other Man-Gui troops were forcibly recruited by Zu Dashou.Because Zu Dashou adhered to Yuan Chonghuan's intention and did not agree with Mangui, Jiang Wanli and other Manchu generals could not be reused in Liaodong, and were crowded out by generals in Liaoxi everywhere.

Therefore, for Jiang Wanli, assigning Shi Dayong's subordinates is much better than staying under Zu Dashou's subordinates.He knew that Shi Dayong was a direct general brought by governor Qiu Hejia from the pass, and governor Qiu had long been dissatisfied with Zu Dashou and others, and it was imperative to help the new army to counter Zu Dashou.

After all, Ming Dynasty was rich in culture and martial arts, no matter how arrogant Zu Dashou was, he was only a military general, while Qiu Hejia was a high court official who was acting as the governor of Liaodong on behalf of the emperor. Comparing the two, the latter has some advantages.

Besides, under Zu Dashou, I was oppressed and depressed, but it was different under Governor Qiu. Once the strength of the descendants is formed, the situation in Liaodong will be greatly improved, and the boat will rise with the tide.

The precedent of Shi Dayong is vividly in front of his eyes, because he was brought by governor Qiu from the pass, and he jumped from the general manager to the defense in just a few months. Now the opportunity falls on him. As long as he performs well, he will be promoted. It's a matter of time.

Jiang Wanli believed that he would be promoted, because the [-] cavalry under his command were the elite left by General Mangui, and they were stronger than the Liaodong soldiers led by Zu Dashou when Dushi Yuan was there.Only because the coach died in battle, it didn't fall down, but as long as there is a chance to fight, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself.

Regarding Zu Dashou and his gang of nephews and cronies, Jiang Wanli sniffed at the Liaoxi generals. "Short-sighted, just for self-protection" was his evaluation of Zu Dashou.He is eager to attack, eager for revenge, not avoiding battles to preserve his so-called strength, and watching Jiannu grow bigger and bigger!

Shenyang, Hetuala and even further north are the final destination of my Ming army! [

We are the army of the Ming Dynasty, we are the army of the Han people, we are fighting all barbaric enemies to the death!

The result of the battle can only be two kinds - either the enemy steps over our corpses, or we step forward over the enemy's corpses!

Shi Dayong didn't know what Jiang Wanli was thinking, but he knew that these three hundred cavalry were much stronger than his own six hundred Changping soldiers.

The 100 Changping soldiers were recruited by Shi Dayong when he was promoted to General Manager Qian in the second year of Chongzhen. Ma Shilong ordered him to recruit himself in Changping. Except for more than [-] veterans, most of them were recruits and had no actual combat experience.But Jiang Wanli's [-] cavalry were left behind by Man Gui. They fought against the cavalry of the old slave Nurhachi back then, and later fought against the main force of the Eight Banners led by Huang Taiji under the city of Beijing. They are veterans of many battles.

Which is weak and which is strong, you can tell at a glance.

Shi Dayong did not deny that the [-] soldiers of his direct line were not as good as Jiang Wanli's [-] cavalry, even if his subordinates were [-] soldiers, he did not think they were the opponents of the [-] cavalry.

But no matter how strong the cavalry is, there are only three hundred, which is of no use. The Eight Banners and Mongolian cavalry under Huang Taiji have a hundred thousand cavalry.

Therefore, he decided to build his [-] Changping soldiers into a strong army that could face [-] cavalry invincibly.

For this reason, he first went to Jinzhou to meet the governor Qiu Hejia in person, and asked the governor Qiu Hejia to give him a batch of cotton armor and a special card for defending bows and arrows.

…………

As the governor of Liaodong, Qiu Hejia allocated a batch of cotton armor and played cards for his subordinates. Naturally, it was not difficult. Anyway, there were only 600 people, so it would not be conspicuous anywhere.

After getting the cotton armor and playing cards as he wished, Shi Dayong immediately distributed them.Jiang Wanli's [-] cavalry needed these. They themselves had some chain mail, and those who didn't have chain mail also had cotton armor. They needed the cotton armor of these infantrymen.

The appearance of cotton armor is relatively thick cotton cloth. Wet the cotton and repeatedly beat it into cotton sheets, and then make cotton cloth from multiple cotton sheets.Inside the inner and outer layers of cotton cloth, there are square metal sheets about seven centimeters in size connected one by one without leaking any gaps, and the outside is fixed with copper nails, which also have a good effect of keeping out the cold in the cold Northeast region.

In fact, at the beginning of the founding of the country, the infantry of the Ming army were equipped with armor instead of this kind of cotton armor. Because of the extensive equipment of firecrackers, the armor equipment of each army became less and less, and more of this kind of cotton armor was equipped.And this kind of cotton armor can be equipped by the Liaodong and Nine Sides armies, and it is not even equipped in other places.

The shields of the Ming army are divided into three types, one is hand cards, the other is swallowtail cards, and the third is fighting cards.

The hand cards are made of poplar or light wood, five feet seven inches long and one foot wide, and are mainly used to block the opponent's weapons when fighting on the battlefield.

Swallowtail cards are made of turkey wood, about the same length as a hand card, but less than a foot wide. They are wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. They are also used for self-defense when soldiers fight hand-to-hand.

The playing cards are made of poplar wood, five feet long, one foot and five inches wide, and twice as thick as hand cards and swallowtail cards. Therefore, it is called playing cards.

Shi Dayong never expected his hundreds of troops to fight head-to-head with the Eight Banners soldiers. If so, it would definitely be fatal. His purpose of asking Qiu Hejia to play cards was only to enable the soldiers to withstand the Eight Banners soldiers' bows and arrows, not to Let them hold the hand cards and swallowtail cards to fight with the golden soldiers.

The strength lies here, and passive defense is also a helpless strategy.

Shi Dayong didn't dare to think about attacking before he was able to build an army that could stand on defense and be invincible. [
