Come to Daming with military supplies

"Sixth Young Master, you should retreat first, this place is really too dangerous." Xiao Yining, the commander of the Fifth Division of Lu, stood in front of Yang Chendong, and said with earnestness.His life is worthless, and it is okay to put it in any dangerous place, but Yang Chendong can't, he is the soul of the Yang family, if something goes wrong with him, the future of the entire Yang family will be unimaginable.

"I will not leave. Only when I am here can I attract the full attention of the Siamese army and ensure the absolute safety of other cities. Needless to say, Master Xiao. With this time, you still find the enemy's artillery position, lock him, and don't let it play a role in the next battle." Yang Chendong sat on a huge boulder, speaking in a leisurely and unhurried manner.He just wants to put himself in a dangerous place, only in this way, the soldiers will work harder, and it is possible to win the battle in front of them.

It is true that the Fifth Lu Division has more firearms than this era, but after all, there are only more than 8000 people.According to the situation reported by the scouts, the Siamese army surrounding this barren mountain has reached as many as 10,000+, and it is still on the rise. This battle is destined to be extremely difficult. Don't stop, opening a hole may bring unimaginable results.If he left here at this time, it would be tantamount to putting Fifth Division Lu in an extremely dangerous situation, which he did not allow to see.He wants to stay and persevere with everyone.He believed that as long as he was still here for a moment, the fighting spirit of the soldiers would not be extinguished, and other reinforcements would come at a faster speed.

Chapter One Thousand and Thirty

After all, it is more than ten times or twenty times more enemies, even if all the equipment is muskets, once the enemy does not want to kill, people can bear it, but guns are not enough; guns are fine, but bullets are not enough. This is destined to be a bad battle, a big battle.

Hearing Yang Chendong's determination, Master Xiao Yining could only sigh and turn to leave.Even if the Sixth Young Master refused to leave, even if he put the entire Fifth Lu Division here, he would never allow any enemy to rush to the barren mountain.

The siege of the Siamese soldiers continued, and the night passed, and the morning passed.At noon, the barren mountain was finally surrounded like an iron barrel. If you wanted to rush out from any direction, you would have to face at least [-] enemies.

After Tongsi completed the complete siege, the general offensive began at the end of the day, that is, at one o'clock in the afternoon, there was the sound of drums beating around the barren hills, and then soldiers wearing Siamese army uniforms appeared in all directions , They either held a big knife, or a spear, or a knife and a shield, and approached the barren hills in all directions. The sound of the drums spread in all directions, guiding the Siamese army to approach step by step. .

On the barren mountain, looking from top to bottom, you can see densely packed figures of enemies, they are like ants constantly approaching. 1000 meters, 800 meters, 600 meters...

Regarding the approach of the enemy, all the soldiers of the [-]th Lu Division were very calm.The long-term training kept them calm. The Wunan King banner representing Yang Chendong's identity was planted at the highest point of the barren mountain, which warmed every soldier's heart after seeing it.They firmly believe that if the battle flag does not fall, they will continue to fight.

500 meters... 400 meters... 300 meters.

When the enemy reached a distance of 300 meters, the first shot was fired by division commander Xiao Yining, and the bullet spun out and hit the body of a Siamese army flag.At the same time as the Siamese military flag fell, thousands of guns were fired at the enemy who was approaching them.

Tongsi only knew that there was Yang Chendong on the barren mountain, but he had no idea how many Five Star Army soldiers there were.He didn't get any information in advance, and he didn't have advanced things like high-powered telescopes. Everything was based on the naked eye and estimation, which caused him to suffer a big loss when he faced the gunshot first.

Thousands of guns were fired, and the firepower was staggered. Among them, there were also large-scale destructive weapons at close range like the machine guns used by the [-]th Squad.The Siamese soldiers only rushed forward for less than half a quarter of an hour before they were forced to retreat, leaving behind them a mountain of scattered corpses.

No one is not afraid of death, especially without even showing the enemy's face, many companions around him were shot to death. This scene frightened the unprepared Siamese army.When some soldiers with shields realized that the opponents were not shooting bows and arrows, but bullets, they realized how ridiculous it was for them to hold shields in their hands.

In less than a quarter of an hour of the attack, more than 3000 corpses were dropped in the southeast, northwest, and south, and the Siamese army's first attack ended in failure.When the news reached the ears of Tongsi, the chief accountant of the Chinese army, he was not only not discouraged, but very happy.

It turned out that they were all Musketeers, so they should be the main force of the Five Star Army.Before, he was worried that someone would pretend to be Yang Chendong and come to the barren mountain, but now it seems that there is no need to worry, the person in this mountain must be Yang Chendong.

The target has been determined. Although the musket is very powerful, it is not because he has no advantages. For example, he has 1 artillery pieces that have just been shipped, and more than [-] cavalry. final destination.

"Push up the artillery, and at the same time order five thousand cavalry to get ready. Once the opportunity is right, they will rush up. I want to see if their muskets have endless gunpowder." Tong Si said confidently with.

The general gave an order, the artillery began to move forward, and the five thousand cavalry were also ready to see every stitch.Mr. Xiao Yining on the barren hill saw all of this. "Damn, it's finally here, artilleryman, determine the target position, adjust the scale, and wait for orders at any time."

Finally seeing the cannon that killed the fourth regiment leader appear, Xiao Yining spoke angrily.

Yang Chendong also saw the scene of the artillery appearing through the telescope, and then he laughed.Some things still have a certain deterrent power when they are useless, but once they are taken out, even that sense of deterrence is gone.

As for whether these artillery can hurt himself and the soldiers of the Fifth Lu Division, Yang Chendong is not worried at all.As far as he knows, apart from the Five-Star Army, other artillery can only hit three miles away. For example, Beiming's self-made artillery can't hit even one mile due to various technical reasons. How can the effective distance threaten oneself?

Yang Chendong's self-confidence also infected the other soldiers. Several 100mm mortars that had been set up for a long time kept adjusting their direction, but they were not in a hurry to launch an attack.

The five-star army also has artillery, and its attack range is several times longer than that of the Siamese army.For now, this is not an open news, so how to destroy all the enemy's artillery as much as possible without the enemy being prepared has become their current goal.If you can't hit it with one blow, and you can't completely destroy it, it will not be fun once the opponent suddenly pushes the cannon up at night when everyone's sight is blocked.

Twenty mortars kept locking on to the slowly moving artillery, and quickly determined the number of the opponent's artillery was thirty.After seeing no more artillery appearing, Commander Xiao Yining gave an order and shouted: "Fire the artillery."

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!

The sound of the cannon suddenly rang out, and twenty shells came out all at once, covering the area in an instant. After a burst of fire lighted up, the thirty artillery pieces of the Siamese army, plus hundreds of Siamese army pushing the artillery forward, There were no bones left, and they were wiped out completely.

Tong Si, who was still waiting for the news of the victory, suddenly heard the sound of the cannon, and intuitively told him that this was not a good signal.He knew the sound and power of his own cannons, and it was far from being so loud and fierce. Could it be that the other side still carried cannons with the army?

Facts told him that his guess was correct, and it was indeed not the artillery fired by his own side. Not only that, all the artillery fire of his own artillery was completely wiped out in this burst, and the thirty artillery pieces he sent without exception became a pile of red-hot cannons. of scrap iron.

There were only fifty cannons in total, and thirty of them were lost in just one encounter. This made Tong Si feel ashamed and angry, and immediately he shouted loudly: "Charge, the whole army charges, the cavalry charges, I want Kill them."

The second full-scale attack begins.

There were no temptations, only continuous onslaughts, and wave after wave of Siamese soldiers fell on the way to charge.Five thousand Siamese cavalry also launched a fierce attack from the north under the cover of infantry. They wanted to open a gap. As long as they could get close to the Five-Star Army, they could then rely on their numbers to win.

"Black Cavalry Dragon Guards, follow me on the horse." Seeing the five thousand Siamese cavalry rushing forward, knowing that the blockade with muskets alone might not be able to cover everything, Yang Chendong flew on his horse and brought a thousand black cavalry to fight back. .

Compared with ordinary Siamese cavalry, the appearance of black cavalry is like the emergence of magic soldiers.

They are invulnerable, their weapons are sharp, and their individual soldiers are extremely good. With the assistance of the arrow point formation and the three-three formation, the Siamese cavalry was pierced just as soon as they approached the enemy. With countless gaps, the original formation became chaotic.

When the formation of the cavalry was broken, their heads and tails could not look at each other, and their left and right could not communicate with each other, their power dropped by at least half.At this time, facing the fierce attack of the black knight, there was nothing he could do except run away.

Facing the black cavalry who had experienced countless lives and deaths on the battlefield, the Siamese [-] cavalry had a numerical advantage before being dispersed and finally beaten away, which also heralded the second attack of the Siamese army. Declare failure.

After more than an hour, the sky was almost dark, and the Siamese soldiers were all defeated after paying the price of nearly ten thousand people. Corpses were thrown everywhere around the barren hills, and the pungent bloody smell filled the air even more. Smell.

In such an environment, Fifth Division Lu had dinner.They lit a bonfire, set up a camp stove, and started cooking.Although the environment is very bad and there is a nauseous smell in the air, after the fierce battle in the afternoon, the soldiers have exhausted a lot of energy, and replenishing calories and food is a must.Whether you are hungry or not, you have to force yourself to eat something even for the sake of the next battle.

A bowl of hot soup, a few pieces of dried meat, and a box of canned fish are the standard equipment for every soldier.Yang Chendong also placed this thing in front of him. When the food was served, he picked it up and ate it unceremoniously, with a look of relish.

God knows, at this time Yang Chendong's abdominal cavity was already rolling continuously, but he still ate forcefully, because he knew that if he didn't take the lead, others would probably eat even more unpalatable food.

Facts have proved that leading by example is indeed powerful.When some soldiers could not eat after smelling the bad smell, seeing that even the Sixth Young Master ate and was still so happy, do they have any excuses?Every soldier forcibly ate the food into their stomachs, and immediately their fatigue was reduced a lot.

This is the role of the commander in chief.Otherwise, how can there be such a saying that a lion leading a group of sheep can defeat a sheep leading a group of lions?

After eating the food, Yang Chendong looked at the already dark sky, and ordered: "Everyone, hurry up and rest well, the enemy will not attack within two hours, but there may be a fierce battle after the sky completely darkens, Everyone first entered the dug trenches to hide, and the scouts took turns to rest."

Chapter 31: The Black Cavalry Attacking at Night

It's just been through a fierce battle all afternoon. In Yang Chendong's view, the hard time has yet to come, and the darkness before dawn is the most dangerous.

The Siamese army is in charge, Tongsi is angry.

In the afternoon's all-out attack, more than 1 people were killed and countless wounded, and most of them were injured because his own soldiers trampled on each other when they retreated. This result made him unacceptable.After the two battles, he had basically figured out Yang Chendong's military strength, which was less than [-].But in the afternoon, he dispatched a full [-] troops to launch a fierce attack in four directions. Not only did no one rush to the barren hills, no one was injured, and his own losses were so great, how could he not let people Angry, angry.

After venting his anger, Tong Si felt much better. He began to sum up his failure experience, and soon he made two important improvements.First reward, second establishment of inspection brigade.

The heavy reward was announced in public. Those who captured Yang Chendong alive would be rewarded with 1 taels of silver and be promoted to five ranks; those who killed Yang Chendong would be rewarded with 8000 taels of silver and promoted to four ranks.The so-called brave men must be rewarded with great rewards. He believes that this trick must be very effective for ordinary soldiers. After all, once this thing is done, it can change a lifetime.

The inspection brigade is specially prepared for soldiers who flee.I'm afraid it's not enough to just rely on money to stimulate, and a lock needs to be pressed behind the rushing soldiers. Once someone retreats, they will be killed without mercy!In this way, he believed that even if he was tired, the five-star army with less than [-] soldiers would be exhausted to death.

Not only these two, Tongsi also decided to attack in the dark.Although they are not good at night fighting, only with the help of night can they send the remaining 1 cannons up.Not only that, he also mobilized all the remaining more than [-] cavalry.The experience during the day told him that compared to the bravery of the cavalry, the five-star army is better, but they are not without a defect, for example, in terms of numbers, the opponent has a disadvantage.

The five-star army has a limited number of cavalry. They may be able to block their own cavalry attack in one direction, but what if he blooms in all directions?The black cavalry, whose strength cannot be dispersed, must be dwarfed by comparison.

Constantly changing the way of attack, making all kinds of preparations.Two hours later, a set of effective attack methods in Tong Si's eyes was formulated.In order for the plan to be implemented smoothly, he mobilized a total of 12 troops to prepare for the attack.

"Huh! I don't believe it. 12 can't beat you. If not, reinforcements will be here at any time. I want to see if you are strong." After Tong Si said this, he began to attack his subordinates. plan and order.

The weather in June is very hot even at night.The breeze blew, and the stench was everywhere on the barren hill.But in this regard, the soldiers of the Five Star Army seemed to have never heard of it one by one, sleeping in the trenches one by one.

A good fighter must first learn to rest and learn how to keep himself in the best condition.

"Attention everyone, the enemy's artillery is coming up." In the silence, the scout on duty found something and shouted loudly.

Boom, boom, boom...
