Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

It was only past noon.However, the two sides have been fighting for more than two hours.Don't say that the horses can't stand it, even the soldiers fighting in the front row are exhausted physically and mentally.

And in the morning's battle, the two sides didn't have any temptations at all. The fight started as a riot, and the fight continued.The two sides are like a pair of boxers, regardless of the twelve rounds of a boxing match, they use all their strength to attack each other's vital points as soon as they come up.

It should be said that if the two sides in the battle encountered such a situation, many of them would return to the camp to end the day's battle after Mingjin had a rest.This is because, in ancient battles, it is very common for a battle to last for a few days, or even half a month to more than a month, and it is not necessary to decide the winner within a day.

However, the Ming army and the rebel army did not consider ending the battle at all. Both sides exchanged the troops in the front row and the troops in the back row, preparing to continue fighting after the intermission.

Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian also called the commanders-in-chief of the three-way Ming army—Jin Guoqi, Qiu Lei, and Yang Yufan, and they wanted to briefly deploy the battle plan for the afternoon.

Gao Qiqian still asked his most trusted Jin Guoqi as usual: "Jin Zongbing, what is your strategy?"

Jin Guoqi was not polite at this time, he immediately replied: "Master Governor, Lord Supervisor. The firearms of the rebels are also comparable to ours. If we fight like this, we don't know that we will fight until the year of the monkey. The general thought, wait After a while, we quietly drove the artillery team behind our Liaodong army, and we also covered the artillery team's movements. After the artillery team opened fire, our Liaodong army took advantage of the gap opened by the artillery shells to rush into the bandit camp."

"However, this requires the cooperation of President Qiu and President Yang. In the battle later, you still have to attack first like in the morning, and you still have to attack violently to attract the attention of the traitors. As long as you wait until Our Liaodong Army rushed in in one go. The formation of the rebels can be completely smashed. We can definitely win a big victory today."

This method of warfare is nothing more than smacking east and west.It should be said that the possibility of success is also very high.So after discussing some details, this battle plan was decided.

But when the three general soldiers were about to disperse, Zhu Dadian ordered to the side soldiers: "Go to Deputy General Liu and tell them. Let them also be ready and wait for the order to support them at any time."

Seeing that Jin Guoqi and Qiu Lei stopped in their tracks, and their expressions were a bit ugly, Zhu Dadian explained: "At the juncture of the battle, we must cooperate sincerely. Today, [-]% of all the generals and senior supervisors who have been captured today are either for ourselves or for us." It is distributed to those troops who are not in the front row. So don't use your brains, and wait until you win this battle."

Then Gao Qiqian also echoed from the side: "The governor's meaning is also the meaning of the supervising army. Do you understand?"

At this time, in order to win the battle, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian, who are the commanders, must use every effort.As for the contradictions and so on, we have to put them aside first.

"No!", "No!" Jin Guoqi and Qiu Lei reluctantly saluted and accepted the order.

actually.Zhu Dadian's order was not needed, and the coalition forces did not want to sit on the sidelines during the battle.Now the military attaches of the coalition forces are all surrounded together.Listening to Wu Shigong's arrangement.

"Wait until the fight starts in the afternoon. Taking advantage of the cover of smoke, our coalition forces will press forward. Remember, our coalition forces are a whole, and our brothers have been utterly devoted to each other along the way, so today on this battlefield, we must embrace Clumping. Do not scatter."

"If the battle in the afternoon is still as hard as it was in the morning after the pressure is up, we will stand still. There is no need to send our troops up to die. But if there is any chance, then we will act together."

Then Wu Shigong drew his samurai sword.He drew a simple pattern on the ground and explained: "It doesn't need to be complicated. If it's complicated, you illiterate people won't be able to understand it."

Wu Shigong's words caused a burst of laughter.

"Our Runing Battalion is the vanguard. If there is a chance, our infantry, artillery and my personal soldiers of the Runing Battalion will open the gap in the rebel formation. I will personally command the vanguard."

"Attention, the smoke of gunpowder on this battlefield is too much, and those of you behind can't see the situation in front clearly. Whether you stay in place or charge forward, you can just watch my movements. Everything depends on my movements. You must pay attention to this point!"

Then Wu Shigong said to Chen Zhongzhi: "Chen Dusi, you are the bravest in our coalition army, so you still lead the elite [-] drawn from each battalion and follow behind our Runing battalion."

"Attention, your troops have to be divided into two groups. Wait until our Runing Battalion opens the gap. Your two troops will tear apart the formation of the rebels left and right."

Then Wu Shigong said to Li Sanhe: "Sanhe, you still bring the [-] cavalry with you. When Chen Dusi tore apart the rebel formation, you have to rush into the rebel formation and completely disrupt the rebel formation. "

Then Wu Shigong said to Liu Zeqing: "Brother Hezhou, you are the chief general, and you must take command from the center. You must take the main force of our coalition forces, follow Sanhe's cavalry, and divide into two groups to cover up and kill the rebels. But you must also pay attention Now, don't cover up the killing too deeply, just accept it when you see it. One more word, our coalition forces must not disperse."

Then Wu Shigong arranged for Jiang Cheng and other military officers: "Mr. Jiang Qian, you guys are going to cover the right wing of our coalition army, and Yuan Shoubei and Wei Shoubei, you take your own affiliations to cover the left wing of the coalition army. Not only When pressing forward, you need to separate the other Ming troops, and when we rush into the rebel formation, resist the rebels' counterattack, and don't let them block our retreat."

In the end, Wu Shigong confessed to Yan Dingshan: "Yan Guerrilla, you will take your troops and the auxiliary soldiers of our Runing Battalion to the rear. The carts of our coalition forces will also be transferred to you. The troops in front of us don't care about their leaders. And captured, rely on your broken collection. You must do your work cleanly, and our coalition forces will rely on you to make a fortune!"

Wu Shigong's words once again aroused roars of laughter.

"I want to reiterate that you have to watch my actions. You can only charge when my Runing Battalion charges. Even if we lose the battle today, we still have to form a group. It is absolutely not allowed to turn around and run away. Even if you run away, They also followed my Runing camp and fled in a circle. Don't worry, there are more than 1 of us, and the traitors will never be able to bite us."

Then Wu Shigong asked Liu Zeqing, "Brother Hezhou, do you have anything to add?"

Liu Zeqing said: "Just do what Brother Chang Jing said. You must also pay attention, and you must remember what Brother Chang Jing said. You must hold together. Tell all the sons, it's not my old Liu who is too cruel. , and those who don’t listen to orders and run around later, there will be no mercy in the Fa-rectification on the spot. There is nothing else.”

Seeing Liu Zeqing nodding his head, Wu Shigong finally said: "Okay, brothers, go back to the camp and arrange the order of departure for your own troops. Let all the troops take their positions first, and be ready to press ahead at any time."

After meeting the military officers and saluting, they left.Wu Shigong said to the officers of the Runing Battalion: "Let's make arrangements for our Runing Battalion now."

"Zhou Xun and Yu Ji, you two will lead the [-] infantry from the mobile battalion to cover Liang Hui's artillery team. Liang Hui, your artillery must be loaded with shells first, and you must fire as soon as you arrive at the position." .”

"After the artillery fire, it was Zhou Xun and Yu Ji who fired the firecrackers, trying to open a gap in the traitor's formation. After that, Ru Song led the people from the barracks to expand the gap under the cover of the artillery and firecrackers behind. But Zhou Xun and Yu Ji also need to pay attention, you are not just shooting guns in the back, after Rusong's personal barracks charge, you have to follow closely."

"As for how to fight specifically? How many rows of artillery and firecrackers should be fired? These are all up to you to decide. Here I will say something more. Our Runing Battalion does not want to suffer too much damage. But since we want to fight If the situation is not favorable, I will charge in person in case the situation is unfavorable."

"My lord, I don't need you! Just wait!" Zhou Xun replied with a smile.

"That's it! That's it! We can defeat the traitor without your lord's help."

……

The reason why Wu Shigong arranged his own Runing Battalion was to take the initiative to be the vanguard of the coalition forces.On the one hand, it is also to use its own actions to win the trust of the coalition military attache.On the other hand: Wu Shigong was too deeply stimulated in this battle of Denglai.

The appearance of Wu Sangui, the firearms of the rebels and the Ming army, the cavalry of Guan Ning cavalry...

Anyway, under these stimuli, Wu Shigong is now thinking of strengthening the strength of the Runing Battalion and increasing the financial resources of the Runing Battalion.But those things don't just fall from the sky by themselves.It is to rely on the desperate efforts of the Runing Camp.

So after a calculation, Wu Shigong felt that his arrangement could be accepted by the Runing Battalion, so Wu Shigong immediately and decisively placed his Runing Battalion in the vanguard position of the coalition forces.

But what is interesting is that Wu Shigong and Jin Guoqi both proposed the tactic of opening the battle with artillery.Wu Shigong has the idea that modern people value firearms, so it is not surprising that he proposed this tactic.As for Jin Guoqi, that is the talk of experience after a long battle.

The troops on both sides stepped up to use dry food and feed the horses.After a period of mobilization, the two sides quickly established a new formation.

At this time, Kong Youde, the leader of the rebel army, said to the military attache and soldiers around him with a smile: "We have already tested it in the morning, and our left wing is facing the Guanning cavalry. In the battle in the afternoon, the officers and soldiers must be The Guanning iron cavalry should be used as the main attack. Because only the Liaodong Army is our opponent!"

Kong Youde's words also caused a burst of laughter.

Kong Youde then ordered: "Let the chariot and horse team get ready, and when Guan Ning's iron cavalry rushes over, let us give them a surprise." (To be continued..)
