My Life Simulator

In the southeastern coastal area of ​​Daming, there are many people running boats to sea.

Even Lu Li's "home" had people who went to sea. The origin of Lu Li's identity is because the eldest son of the Lu family took the young master to the sea to run the boat and never returned, so Lu Lijiu was allowed to occupy the magpie's nest.

In today's Ming Dynasty, the sea is officially forbidden, but in fact... There are not many gentry families in the southeast that do not go out to sea.

In this case, Lu Li had no problem at all to collect and transport 15,000 soldiers, horses and military supplies.

Of course, because of the prohibition of the sea, it is illegal to go out to sea now.

Lu Li, the general soldier in Songjiang, also has the function of cracking down on "smuggling" out of the sea. Coupled with Lu Li's terrifyingly powerful record, Lu Li's move to find various companies to ask for sea ships to transport troops and horses was successfully supported.

Three days later, at the Jinshan port built on the southeast coast of Jinshanwei, hundreds of ships docked densely.

Overseas trade in the Ming Dynasty was actually very prosperous.

The Spanish duck people worked hard to find gold and silver all over the world. Two-thirds of the gold and silver was sent to Daming, replaced by silk and porcelain, and they were happily brought back to show off.

Lu Li looked at the dense sea ships in front of him and sighed in his heart.

The prosperity of overseas trade is actually a good thing. The only problem is...the court doesn't receive a penny. As a result, the Ming treasury had no money, but the money in the families of officials and gentry piled up like a mountain.

What made Lu Li sigh even more...the large ships in front of him were actually very similar in shape to treasure ships, and belonged to the smaller treasure ships.

Liu Daxia set fire to the drawings of the treasure ship, and then... his family became one of the largest maritime merchants in Daming. Hehe, has the treasure ship blueprint been burned? You taste it, you taste it carefully.

When Lao Tzu's destroyer is built, I'll see who dares not to pay taxes!

Of course, this is for the future.

"The whole army listens to the order, boarding the ship!"

With a wave of Lu Li's hand, the soldiers under his command lined up neatly and boarded the ship one after another.

All kinds of military supplies were also loaded on the ship, in addition to guns, ammunition, food and grass, there were also sleds specially made by Lu Li.

The sled is naturally used to deal with the icy road in the Bohai Sea.

The ice on the coast of the Bohai Sea has an average thickness of 20 cm. Such solid ice is completely a highway!

The entire marching route, from Songjiang Prefecture to the sea by boat, arrived in Dengzhou. Then landed in Dengzhou and turned to Laizhou by land. The ice layer in the Bohai Sea to the north of Laizhou is already thick enough, and then I rush to Jinmen on a sleigh.

Lu Li estimated that within ten days, the army would be able to reach the capital. Within half a month, you will be able to drive to the Datong border.

This speed is at least two or three times faster than marching through the wind and snow for thousands of miles.

...

On the Jinshanwei Wharf, the tense and orderly boarding lasted for half a day.

Fifteen thousand troops boarded the ship one after another, and all kinds of military supplies were loaded. Lu Li gave an order and set sail.

After four days and four nights, the fleet arrived in Dengzhou.

This speed was faster than Lu Li expected. It seems that the navigation technology of the Ming Dynasty is not bad. What's worse is the court, and the sailing skills in private hands are not bad at all.

When Dengzhou went ashore, Lu Li could already see the floating ice on the sea.

The army went ashore and spent most of the day loading and unloading supplies. After a day of marching on land, they arrived in Laizhou.

The coast of Laizhou has been completely frozen.

The army camped outside the city of Laizhou and spent another two days repairing it.

Replace spiked horseshoes, replace the wheels of the freight wagon with sleds, and assemble the troop sled.

Due to the shortage of mules and horses, Lu Li almost swept away all the animals such as mules, horses, donkeys and cattle in Denglai and bought them all. Only then did the animals for the troop sleigh come together.

In addition, Lu Li also sent a vanguard team to step on the ice layer of the Bohai Sea first, check the thickness of the ice layer, and plan the marching route.

On the third day, the army dispatched, along the small flagpole erected on the ice by the vanguard, took a sleigh cart and rushed all the way to the capital.

It has to be said that the speed of sliding on the ice is really fast.

Two days later, the army arrived at Jinmen.

The leaders of the DPRK and China in Yanjing City were shocked when they learned that Lu Li had led his army to Jinmen after receiving the express news delivered by the fast horse in Tianjin.

So fast?

Everyone knows the truth of how fast a soldier is, but the question is how to be fast?

It has been less than ten days since the Yunjian Bo army set out. Has this arrived in Jinmen?

In the afternoon of the same day, the DPRK and China bosses were even more horrified.

Because... Lu Li's army had already arrived outside Yanjing City.

The reason why it can be so fast is mainly because in the northern boundary, the ground is also covered with a thick layer of ice and snow, and the sled is also applicable on land.

The army camped outside the city of Yanjing. Lu Li sent people to hand in the orders to the Ministry of War and the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army.

It stands to reason that the Emperor Jiajing is going to summon a military general of the rank of Lu Li to lead an army to Beijing.

However... Emperor Jiajing, who was so busy cultivating immortals, didn't even think about it.

The emperor didn't say that he wanted to summon Lu Li, so it was inconvenient for the leaders in the DPRK to meet with Lu Li. What do you want to meet with the generals stationed outside the city of Yanjing with heavy troops in hand?

So, Lu Li traveled all the way to the capital, but no one paid him any attention.

They were stationed outside Yanjing City overnight. Early the next morning, the Ministry of War and the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies issued a military order, ordering Lu Li to immediately set off with his army and rush to the Datong Border Pass.

Lu Li took the military order, pouted, and ordered the camp to be dismantled and the entire army assembled.

Fifteen thousand soldiers and horses, lined up neatly, holding bright sun and moon banners, stood outside Yanjing City, shouting in the direction of Yanjing City.

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Da Ming is mighty!"

"Da Ming is mighty!"

The army shouted in unison, and the majestic sound was like a tsunami and landslide, sweeping the Quartet.

At this moment, a mighty cry echoed between heaven and earth.

In Yanjing City, countless people were startled by the shouting, and turned their heads to look outside the city one by one.

The call was the mighty and mighty Ming Dynasty, and naturally it was not the Tatar attack.

But... when did Daming have such a majestic military might?

Near the city gate, countless people craned their necks and looked at this strange army outside the city.

The bright red sun and moon flags fluttered in the wind.

A large army in black clothes lined up neatly, marching in a neat pace, rumbling around the city.

Apart from the neat footsteps, there was no noise in this army.

The queue was neat and tidy, as if measured with a ruler. Even in the middle of the march, the neat queue was not disordered in the slightest, and it was still neat and tidy.

Where is this army from?

When did Daming have such a heroic army?

At the gate of the city, Zhang Juzheng, the servant of the Ministry of War, looked up at the neat army formation in front of him, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he was amazed.

Uncle Yunjian is worthy of being a famous general in the world, such a heroic army has the potential to swallow thousands of miles with anger.

...

Datong City.

Zhang Qin, the commander-in-chief of Datong, sat in front of the case, looking at the map in front of him, his face filled with gloom.

In the territory of Datong Prefecture, Daming set up a total of twenty-four guards and seventy-two forts, to strengthen the city with strong troops and defend against the Tatar cavalry in the north.

Today, on the map in front of Chief Soldier Zhang Qin, the surrounding seventy-two forts are already covered with red "X", and almost all of them have fallen to the enemy.

These front-line fortresses with only hundreds of troops are mainly used to warn the rear and block the enemy.

According to the original design, once the front-line fortress found that the Tatars were attacking and ignited the beacon, the rear army was dispatched and cooperated with the fortress defenders to defeat the foreign enemy.

It's just... Since the Ming army couldn't fight in the field and could only defend the city, the role of these front-line fortresses was only a warning.

It has been half a month since the Tatars were on the side, and the fall of the frontline fortress was also expected by Zhang Qin.

Today's plan is to defend the city of Datong from being attacked by the Tartars, even if it is fortunate.

"General, urgent military situation."

At this time, a personal soldier hurried in and reported to Zhang Qinhui: "Yesterday, 50,000 Tatar cavalry attacked Datong Youwei. Now Datong Youwei and Yulinwei are trapped. Datong Zuowei and Yunchuanwei are in an emergency."

"understood!"

Zhang Qin nodded expressionlessly.

The Acropolis fell to the left and right of Datong, which was also expected by Zhang Qin. Zhang Qin naturally knew very well how much fighting power the guards under his command had, and it was impossible to stop the Tartar cavalry.

As for military aid? forget it! Once the army leaves Datong City, what if it is ambushed by the Tatar cavalry? Better to be cautious.

As long as Datong City can be defended, even if the outer fortresses and the acropolis are all lost, it is still a victory.

I hope that the Tatar cavalry will kill the soldiers of these fortresses and the acropolis, and after robbing the military supplies and food and grass, they can withdraw their troops and retreat!

Zhang Qin let out a long sigh. He also knew that after sweeping down these forts and acropolis, the Tartar cavalry would not retreat.

If the Tatar Khan did not bring his tribes to fight Ming, the tribes under his command would unite to fight him.

So... Fighting Daming, it can not only gain reputation, but also solve internal conflicts, and also take the opportunity to weaken the strength of the clan under his command, it is simply perfect.

A few days later, the Tartar cavalry was approaching the city.

In just a few days, the garrison fortresses outside Datong City were all lost. One hundred thousand Tatar cavalry killed Datong city.

At the same time, 50,000 Tatar cavalry attacked Dongsheng City, and 50,000 cavalry attacked Wanquan City.

The Tatar army marched on three routes, and in a short time, the Xuanfu Datong area was full of beacon fires everywhere, and the situation was precarious.

...

"Boom!"

The stone bullets fired by the Tartar returned to the wall, hitting the wall heavily, and half of the towering tower collapsed.

"Open the cannon! Open the cannon! Blow up those return cannons for Lao Tzu!"

A military general on the city wall climbed out of the debris of the collapsed city tower and roared with a loud voice.

After roaring for a while, the general turned his head to look at Zhang Qin, "Master Chief, where are the reinforcements! Where are the reinforcements?

"How can the reinforcements be so fast?"

Zhang Qin shook his head, "It is said that the DPRK sent troops from Songjiang Prefecture in southern Zhili to come to aid, and when the reinforcements arrive... the Tartars have all gone back after fighting."

"Special girl!"

The disgraced general scolded, "Do the adults in the court have any brains?"

Just as he was talking, a loud trumpet sounded in the distance.

"Dick dick dick..."

The mournful trumpet echoed in the heaven and earth.

Below the Great Wall in the distance, on a snow-covered hill, a flag of the sun and the moon was erected high, and the bright flags fluttered in the wind.

"Boom boom boom..."

Below the hill, an army in black, lined up in a neat phalanx, appeared behind the Tartar cavalry at a neat pace.

"That's... reinforcements?"

The gray-faced general looked at an army of tens of thousands of people that appeared on the edge of the Great Wall. What appeared in his eyes was not surprise, but... anger and anger.

"Where did this army come from? Who is the general who led the troops? Why did they go behind the Tartar cavalry? Why didn't they lead the troops into the city? It's not like looking for death!"

The disgraced general couldn't help but scolded for a while.

The commander-in-chief Zhang Qin was also speechless.

Since you brought troops to help, why didn't you enter the city? Why did you run behind the enemy? Can't even figure out the direction?

Done! Done! This support army is dead!

A mere 10,000 infantry, facing a hundred thousand Tatar cavalry, this battle does not need to be fought at all, and a charge will collapse.

Are you here for support, or are you here to give heads to the Tartars?

What shocked Zhang Qin was that the black-clothed army had actually formed a formation under the hill, and seemed to be planning to face the 100,000 Tatar cavalry head-on!

Except for his courage, Zhang Qin has nothing to say.

The appearance of this troop also surprised the Tartar cavalry outside the city.

Tartar Khan almost laughed when he looked at the army in black lined up against the Great Wall with their backs to the Great Wall.

Where did the Ming army come from? A mere 10,000 soldiers and horses dare to leave the city? 10,000 infantry, facing 100,000 iron cavalry, isn't this here to die?

"Terhan, take your men there. Cut off their heads for me!"

The Tatar Khan waved to a tribal head next to him, "I have prepared the kumiss, waiting for you to celebrate!"

"Hahahaha! Good!"

Ter Khan laughed and walked out of the military tent with a long knife in hand.

The horn sounded, and a cavalry force of 20,000 people departed from the Tartar camp and headed in the direction of the black-clothed army.

Standing under the flagpole on the top of the mountain, Lu Li raised his binoculars and looked at the Tatar army formation in the distance with a sneer of disdain on his face.

These Tatar cavalry, all cold weapons, almost no threat.

"Call! After 500 meters from the enemy, start attacking."

The reason for advancing to a distance of 500 meters is mainly because most of the soldiers under his command are only recruits who have received three months of training. It is inevitable that they will panic when they enter the battlefield for the first time.

If you put it too close, it will be embarrassing in case you are so scared that you drop the gun and run away.

"Boom!"

When the 20,000 Tatar cavalry approached the army formation about a thousand meters, they began to charge.

The horses' hoofs flying, the violent roar and the strong vibrations made people involuntarily feel a sense of fear. It was indeed a huge psychological test for the infantry in the formation.

The recruits in the army had become short of breath, sweating, and some even turned pale.

If it wasn't for the strict disciplinary requirements during military training, which made them accustomed to obeying orders, I'm afraid these recruits would have collapsed in fright before they started fighting.

"Five hundred meters to the enemy!"

The staff officer reported to Lu Li.

"Fire!"
