Chapter 138 Don't even dare to say that you have the right to die for Daming
Chapter 138 If you don’t even dare to die for the Ming Dynasty, what qualifications do you have to say you are loyal to the Ming Dynasty?
the next day.
"There's no good meeting, no good banquet. If you invite me to watch the Shenji Battalion's review, won't a bunch of rapid-fire cannons fire at me?"
Yang Feng was chattering on horseback.
He had just finished breakfast and was instructing several of his artists to prepare comics.
The so-called painter is actually an adopted daughter.
A few adopted daughters aged thirteen or fourteen who like to draw on weekdays.
There are currently more than 600 adopted daughters here, and of course they have all kinds of hobbies. These adopted daughters of his also leave and replenish at any time. Those who leave are all promised to the young craftsmen who come, including those who are willing to go north to reclaim wasteland. As for
What is supplemented is the purchase. With Zhu Di's conquest in the Japanese country, more Japanese girls have been brought to the Ming Dynasty...
This kind of thing is routine operation.
Soldiers like to expand and fight, isn't it just to go out and plunder?
Not looting?
Who likes war without looting?
The soldiers still rely on stealing fuel to support their morale!
As for the Japanese country, apart from the Japanese women, there really is nothing worth grabbing, so recently the Japanese women are being transported to Chongjin Port in a boatload. It is a long way to the south, and after arriving at the port, there are civil servants who are nagging, and they are sent to Chongjin to be handed over to professionals.
Just fine.
For example, the families of distinguished generals have such professionals.
Yang Feng also has it.
Green Slave is his professional.
Yang Feng, who was preparing to start his comic career, was invited out by Li Liang and Zhang Fu who suddenly came to the door.
He said that he was invited to visit the Shenji Camp.
Not just him, all the envoys from the vassals who paid tribute this time were invited. As for the Japanese envoys who had died, they were also invited. The chief envoy was dead and his deputy envoys were also invited. It does not mean that they were all killed. Including Date Masamune and others.
There were also accompanying relatives. In fact, they all brought their nephews. For example, Osaki Morumochi brought his grandson Osaki Mitsuru. The latter, who is still just a child, fully demonstrated his understanding of justice and expressed his gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor for his magnanimity for his grandfather's death.
.
He believed that his grandfather's crime should be punished with death.
Anyway, it was his father who attacked Feng.
And when his father died, he was the one who naturally took over the throne.
They are all understanding people!
"By the way, are we going to show off the magical gun this time? It's very powerful. Even wearing heavy armor, it can kill someone in one blow at a few hundred steps!"
Yang Feng continued to ramble.
The magic weapon is the matchlock gun.
"Just shut up!"
Zhang Fu said with a dark face.
He can't go back yet and has to wait to escort the Japanese and Fuso missions back.
Now the Japanese Kingdom is clearly separated. To the south is the Japanese Kingdom, ruled by the king of the Japanese Kingdom. To the north is the Ming Dynasty's Fusodu Commandery Envoy. The Fusodu Commandery is in charge of the Xuanfu envoys. This jurisdiction extends to Hokkaido, but a guard will be established there in the future.
.
As for Sakhalin Island in the north, it is already under the jurisdiction of the Jinghai Guard and several Jisi Guards, and belongs to the Huining Commandery Division.
In this way, the territory of the Ming Dynasty formed a whole.
Although the vast majority are control officers, a small number of actual guards can also form effective control.
"The ambassador is joking!"
Li Liang, who was not at the level of friendship with Yang Feng, said with a hypocritical smile.
In this way they arrived at the university grounds.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the emperor Taisun who had arrived was wearing armor, and it was the latest. It was actually plate armor. Yang Feng had already given the picture of the plate armor to Zhu Yuanzhang, but the latter just looked at it casually and didn't care.
There are more than 5,000 regular soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, and giving them a set of plate armor for each person. Even half-body armor is a huge project, not to mention that the Ming Dynasty has no enemies worthy of using this kind of armor to resist.
The current fish scale armor, zha armor, and cloth face armor are enough.
But the emperor’s grandson likes it!
Get a new full-body armor, and it is plated with gold and engraved with various patterns, it will definitely attract everyone's attention.
Yang Feng immediately stepped forward.
The emperor's grandson pulled him enthusiastically.
Then they all walked up to the general stage together, and the tribute envoys from all the vassals also came on stage. Not only the vassal states, but also the Xuanwei Division and the Xuanfu Division also had to pay tribute, especially the Southwest and Xifan, including several vassals in the Western Regions.
However, except for the emperor's grandson, no one else had a seat, and the emperor's grandson did not sit down because he was wearing armor. He just stood in front of his seat, and the Ryukyu tribute envoy was also there. He looked at Yang Feng with a flattering smile on his face.
.
Yang Feng nodded slightly.
The latter was immediately flattered...
It may be that he was overly frightened, but in any case, after experiencing the bloody scene yesterday, the Ryukyu envoy was frightened.
"Your Highness!"
A military general stepped forward and saluted.
This is Guo Zhen, the commander of Zhu Yuanzhang's Shenji Battalion.
His father Guo Ying.
Zhu Yuanzhang had great trust in Guo Ying.
Lao Guo is a roly-poly, and killing heroes will not affect him.
Therefore, a new army like the Shenji Battalion, which is closely related to the future military system of the Ming Dynasty, is naturally led by his son. Even though Guo Zhen is only in his early twenties, this is not important. After all, the tactics of the Shenji Battalion are brand new and do not require much experience.
"let's start!"
The emperor's grandson waved his hand and said.
Immediately after the flag was waved, groups of soldiers entered the school grounds and began to form formations.
Of course their formation was also taught by Yang Feng.
Because there is no need to worry about the current cold weapon combat capabilities of the Ming army, and there is no need to worry about the cover of the cavalry, Yang Feng simply gave them the Spanish square formation, so this Shenji battalion is actually a large square formation. There is a piece of spears in the middle.
In the dense forest, there are four musket phalanxes around, all of which are heavy matchlocks. The spearmen are all heavy armor. A phalanx is set up, and then the musketeers start shooting. Their magical muskets or matchlocks are of course the ultimate evolution.
Version, to put it simply, it is the Sur type, and it also has fixed ammunition. Because of its faster rate of fire, it has more musketeers than the Spanish phalanx.
Following Guo Zhen's order, the musketeers in the front and on both sides opened fire immediately.
The sound of gunshots instantly echoed throughout the school grounds.
Smoke filled the air.
Immediately after the musketeer who finished shooting moved back, the musketeers in the rear row came forward, and the second round of shooting began.
The tribute envoys looked on in shock.
"Your Highness, I think this cannot truly demonstrate the strength of the Shenji Battalion. We should find some people to truly attack the Shenji Battalion's formation."
Yang Feng said.
"Well, that would kill someone."
Zhu Yunxi said.
"To die for the Ming Dynasty should be the duty of a subordinate."
Yang Feng said.
Then he winked at Zhu Yunxi, and then turned his eyes to the tribute envoys.
The latter looked at each other blankly.
"Dear envoys, you are all loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Now is the time to test your loyalty. Have you seen the formation of the Shenji Battalion? As far as I know, you all have many guards with you. How can one envoy
One hundred and ten people, now one envoy will send out ten people, and then form a formation to attack the Shenji Camp.
Life and death are determined by destiny.
Soldiers from the Shenji Battalion are considered dead when they die.
If you can rush to the formation alive and chop a soldier with the knife in your hand, you will win.
Winners will be rewarded with ten taels of gold.
Whoever can reach the formation will win ten taels of gold.
Even if he loses and dies on the way, his family will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."
he said.
The tribute envoys were all dumbfounded.
Even people like Li Liang and Zhang Fu were fooled.
You are playing too big, this is a real battle, and many people will die.
"Why, if you don't even dare to die for the Ming Dynasty, what qualifications do you have to say that you are loyal to the Ming Dynasty?
If you are disloyal to the Ming Dynasty, then the Ming Dynasty does not need the disloyal ministers. They will all be killed. Today, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty does not need to issue an edict. I will do it for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Do you understand? Or a family can send ten followers to rush to the gods.
In the machine camp, if you win ten taels of gold and if you die, you will get ten taels of silver, or I will kill them one by one just like I did to those people yesterday.
hurry up!"
Yang Feng shouted fiercely.
Then he took out his rifle and started taking aim.
The tribute envoys immediately knelt down.
"The emperor's grandson, please make the decision!"
"The great grandson of the emperor!"
…
Then they cried and kowtowed.
Zhu Yunxi looked at them speechlessly.
"Dear envoys, you have also seen that the Shenji Battalion has to reload its ammunition after each round. Is it that you still can't rush through? Look at those spears. Isn't it because you know that the Shenji Guns can't stop them?
I'll add more, twenty taels of gold, and still ten taels of silver."
he said.
"Emperor Grandson, can you ride a horse?"
A tribute envoy who was obviously a nomadic tribe said.
It should be on the Hehuang side, also known as Xifan.
What the emperor's grandson said makes sense.
Although the firearms of the Shenji Battalion are scary, loading is obviously very cumbersome. Even if they shoot in turns, there are gaps in between. The speed is much slower than bows and arrows. The infantry charge is indeed very dangerous, but the cavalry charge can only take the blink of an eye.
"Can!"
Zhu Yunxi said.
"Can I shoot an arrow from a horse?"
The man asked again.
"Yes, but the arrow hit will definitely not count. You have to rush to the formation and chop it with a knife."
Yang Feng said.
So spears definitely don't count.
"Then I'll give it a try!"
said the latter.
"Emperor Grandson, how we fight is up to us. Can we use a shield?"
Another tribute envoy said.
This should be from the southwest, such as the Xuanwei Department in Myanmar and Laos.
"You can just use the shield car!"
Yang Feng said.
Not to mention the wooden shield carts they can find, my Qing Dynasty's cowhide, wooden, and iron plate composite shield carts can't stop the turtle dove gun. The bullets of these things are tens of grams. In fact, the bullets of these magical gun guns are
One or two weights, not to mention the shield car, even the thickest part of the European high-end plate armor can't stop it. The Spaniards have the longest actual combat record, killing a horse at a distance of 400 yards.
Even more powerful than a submachine gun.
After all, the bullets of a modern submachine gun are completely incomparable to the one or two lead balls of this thing.
Those tribute envoys didn't know this, but simply looking at this formation was indeed not that exaggerated.
The rate of fire of the magic gun is not very fast after all.
Those spears were obviously meant to prevent them from impacting the formation.
What's more, there are cavalry here.
The cavalry shoots arrows from the outside to contain them, and the shield infantry here rushes hard. The speed is fast enough to rush into the formation. Speaking of twenty taels of gold, this is really worth the risk.
The tribute envoys immediately summoned their men. They all had attendants. Soon there were ten people in a family, a total of twenty-six tribute envoys, or two hundred and sixty people. They were equipped with armor and eighty cavalry. These were all tiring.
Paired with bows and arrows. The infantry also wore heavy armor and carried shields. They did not ask for shield carts. Obviously they thought shields were enough, so such a formation was also established in the main campus. However, some tribute envoys pointed out that this was unfair
, after all, there were too many people in the Shenji Camp. Since they were satisfied with their requirements, the Emperor Taisun directly ordered the number to be reduced to five hundred.
Then it's still the same square array.
This is actually a formation table, that is, how to arrange the numbers of people with different numbers, otherwise the commanding officer must learn the square root.
Five hundred people is fair enough.
After all, this is a square formation, and less than half can be invested in one attack surface.
The starting point of the attack is two hundred steps away.
The cavalry in Xifan basically all spoke the same language. They started first. The nomadic cavalry on horseback quickly mobilized their horses. They did not charge directly into the formation. After all, if the infantry formation was not in chaos, they could not charge. Then
One look at the densely packed spears shows that the impact is tantamount to suicide.
So they went straight to the left wing and took out their bows and arrows on horseback.
But before they reached a hundred steps, the shooting over there had already started. Although the distance was long and the accuracy was low, the bullets still hit, and some of the charging Xifan cavalry began to fall. But this was expected, and they continued to charge with shouts.
The opposite side continued to fire, and more and more cavalry fell off their horses, but they still rushed into the bow and arrow range with their speed. Because the Xifan cavalry was afraid of the Shenji blunderbuss, they started shooting arrows at the Shenji camp about fifty meters away, and at the same time they kept running wildly.
It kept falling and even went around to the back.
But the musketeers from the Shenji Battalion on the opposite side just fired silently. The first row finished retreating to reload, the second row stepped forward, and then the third row...
The cycle begins again and again.
The cavalry's arrows have no effect.
At this time, at least one-fifth of the cavalry, who had been dismounted, were still circling, looking for what they thought were weak points.
But the bullets still kept hitting.
There were fewer and fewer cavalrymen circling while running wildly. Soon someone couldn't help it and continued to approach the formation and tried to kill him with precise arrows. However, before he could reach ten steps, the enemy's bullets hit him hard.
Fell off the horse.
The cavalry finally completed the circle.
"If they had attacked with all their might one by one, it might have been done."
Zhang Fu said.
Indeed, facing the output capability of this square array, going around in circles is the stupidest way.
"Then it depends on whether they dare or not."
Yang Feng said.
The returning cavalry had lost nearly a quarter, and the whole team was cursing the infantry. However, the two sides did not understand each other. Fortunately, the tribute envoys quickly reached an agreement. The cavalry separated to the two wings, restraining the musketeers on both wings, and then the infantry charged at full speed.
, there are only two hundred steps to the left and right, and there are three rows of musketeers in front.
Immediately after completing the adjustment, the vassal coalition forces began a new round of attack.
The cavalry divided into left and right directions.
Force the musketeers on the left and right to fight and prevent them from shooting in the front.
There was no need for a formation on the front. The messy vassal infantry, each wearing heavy armor, holding a shield, holding a long knife, ran like crazy towards the phalanx of the Shenji Battalion. However, the musketeers on the front did not open fire immediately, but three
The platoon quickly approached and formed a line. The front row was half-kneeling, the second row was bent, and the third row was upright. The upper, middle, and lower layers of muskets were all aimed at the vassal infantry rushing towards them.
The latter howled and ran wildly.
It's only two hundred steps, and it won't take long on a solid flat ground.
Just a little over a minute.
But just when they reached a distance of ten steps and saw the musketeers bumping into them, all the musketeers in front of them opened fire at the same time, and in an instant there was a volley of thunderous fire.
Then……
The vanguard of the vassal infantry suddenly collapsed as if they had stepped into a trap...
