Ming Dynasty: The Sixth Brother of the Zhu Family Seeks Immortality

No matter what, the army will never give up their logistics escort team.

But the expressions of several deputy generals soon began to solidify!

Because when the black army began to approach the logistics troops, no cavalry appeared to stop the enemy!

Several deputy generals began to panic instantly!

"Go and ask soldiers from all sides to come to support!"

"It's dangerous here, there is an ambush of Wala here, go and ask the big army!"

This "logistics" unit has only more than 10,000 soldiers.

With these numbers, without guns and artillery, in the flat grassland, I'm afraid that only a thousand cavalry can wipe them out!

As the enemy cavalry got closer and closer, several deputy generals still did not find any signs of support.

They couldn't help but collapse to the ground: "It's over, it's gone."

There was still a last glimmer of hope in their hearts, hoping that these soldiers were actually their own people.

But this is already the heart of the grassland, and the probability of being their own people is too low!

Just when several deputy generals were feeling sad, a military order came!

Zhu Zhanji and his personal guards wandered around, shouting: "The central army becomes the rear army!, the front army becomes the central army, the three thousand camp wanders around the periphery and does not engage in battle, the Shenji camp moves closer to me!"

Several deputy generals felt that their brains were confused.

They were hundred households and thousand households in the Ming army, and they were small officials who were not very popular.

There were not many confidants, but they had heard of the three thousand camps and the Shenji camp.

The troops they escorted for logistics turned out to be the main force of my Ming Dynasty?

I have lived long enough to see it!

Chapter 105 Grand Fireworks

"Sixth brother, today I want to test the power of artillery!"

Zhu Zhanji said with regret: "It's a pity that the production and transformation time of artillery is too short. If artillery and fire guns are built for a few years, this Wala will not cause any danger at all."

Zhu Zhanji nodded in recognition.

Indeed, the advancement of firearms will pull down the cavalry, which was almost a big killer in ancient times.

If it follows the normal direction of weapon advancement.

Firearms can only catch up with cavalry slowly.

After all, cavalry is a complete branch of arms developed throughout the feudal era.

The tactics of firearms are only a prototype. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, firearms did not completely replace cavalry.

There were only cavalry equipped with firearms.

Even in World War I and World War II, cavalry was not completely abolished.

Finally, it was not until some good doctors who were dedicated to saving the world invented Gatling and Maxim.

The role of cavalry was completely suppressed by firearms, but there was still a certain amount of room for operation.

After the messenger around Zhu Zhanji began to pass on the order, all the soldiers of the Shenji Camp completed the installation of the long guns and short guns in the transport vehicle.

The cooperation between the Three Thousand Camp and the Shenji Camp was taught to Zhu Zhanji by Zhu Di during this period.

The earliest use of this tactic was the three-stage attack method of Mu Ying, a founding hero.

The three-stage attack method has been widely used in future firearm wars.

"All members of the Shenji Camp, after the enemy enters the range of artillery and muskets, open fire at full power, and don't count the ammunition! After firing, be sure to use up all the ammunition! If you have ammunition left in your hands after the battle, you will be charged with disobeying the general's order!"

The messenger quickly passed Zhu Zhanji's order to the masters of firearms in the Shenji Camp.

A few more messengers came over.

Zhu Zhanji shouted: "Set off the beacon fire and inform Your Majesty that the main force of the enemy has appeared! Quickly surround them from both sides!"

"Yes!" The messenger shouted excitedly.

Zhu Zhanji said to Zhu Zhankan beside him: "Sixth brother, how about giving you the task of cutting off the retreat of Wala?"

"Lead your Baima Yicong to cut off the retreat of Wala. It would be even better if you can capture the leader of Wala."

"Okay." Zhu Zhankan turned and left the camp, drifted to a place with few people, and summoned Baima Yicong!

Several deputy generals also came to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and there were nearly a hundred people around him, who were their direct subordinates.

They watched the grandson calmly give orders and the camps act steadily, feeling a little unreal.

At the same time, cavalry from all directions began to slowly move towards the position of the "logistics" troops.

As if they had been prepared for a long time, these numerous troops were originally thought to be conducting a search activity.

But when the final plan was revealed, these armies seemed to have become a bun formation.

The Wala cavalry was the meat filling, and the high ground behind the Wala was the bun fold.

After the Wala fell in, there was no chance to get out again.

Zhu Zhanji didn't know whether Zhu Di had any extra arrangements in the rear.

But Zhu Zhanji didn't think much about the concerns about other variables.

The chase and fighting had been going on for more than ten hours.

The Ming cavalry had surrounded them.

Close! The tens of thousands of cavalry led by Mahamu were gradually approaching Zhu Zhanji's camp!

"Fire!!!"

The artillery and muskets fired together! The sound of the sky startled Mahamu's cavalry, and the Wala cavalry square formation instantly became chaotic.

The biggest feature of cavalry is flexibility. If they see that the situation is not good, they will not fight to the death.

Zhu Di, who knows how to use cavalry, naturally has already arranged a response method.

Zhu Di rode on a horse and rushed to the place where the Wala army was found.

Behind him, Duke Ying Zhang Fu followed.

When they were resting during the march.

Zhang Fu cupped his hands and said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, it is better for me to go and conquer Oara."

"Hahahaha, you? I can't give you this great credit." Zhu Di smiled excitedly.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Fu persuaded: "Your Majesty, Wala has gathered almost all the main forces on the high ground in front. It can be seen that the opponent is already determined to sink the boat. Although our army has the advantage, our swords have no eyesight."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Don't worry, those little thieves in Wala can't change the world!"

"Raise the troops!" Zhu Di pulled out the Emperor's Sword in his hand.

"I am going to wipe out Oala today! Let the wolf live in Xu!"

Zhu Di said to Zhang Fu: "Bury the pot to cook, take out all the meat, and give the soldiers a full meal."

"After noon, the whole army will go out!"

...

Mahamu led the cavalry to threaten the Shenji Camp and was bombarded by a burst of artillery fire.

They could only leave hundreds of corpses in embarrassment and flee.

The biggest deterrent of firearms to cavalry is those horses that are not very obedient.

The noise would disturb ordinary horses, but the lethality of artillery to people was actually very limited.

Moreover, the grassland is relatively wide and the cavalry has sufficient strategic depth.

Most people will not be trampled to death.

Therefore, Wala's damage was not considered serious.

Unfortunately, the inability to use the war horse was an important issue for Mahamu.

On the way to escape, Mahamu felt that he had understood.

Daming might have discovered their location a long time ago, but he just pretended not to know.

The purpose is to lure Mahamu to send troops.

"Great Khan, there are cavalry from the Ming Dynasty coming ahead!"

Mahamu hurriedly asked: "How many cavalry are there? Are there any firearms?"

"At least five thousand cavalry, they look very elite."

Mahamu was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the cavalry and infantry behind him. The infantry were soldiers riding ordinary horses. After their horses were frightened, they ran away.

Even if the horses were still around, they didn't dare to ride them.

In fact, trained horses can completely ignore the roar of artillery fire.
