After entering the port, the Ming fleet immediately chose to anchor for repairs.
After the warship docked, groups of Ming soldiers carried rifles on their backs and boarded the port pier on Temple Street through the steps.
After a simple formation at the pier, these Ming soldiers lined up in a neat array, chanted chants, sang military songs, and walked towards the military camp that had been built in advance outside Temple Street City.
"When a man is born in the world, he becomes a marquis when he is strong. He has made great achievements in war, but how can he guard the old hill? He is recruited to go to Jimen, and the army cannot stay."
"A thousand gold buys a horsewhip, and a hundred gold holds a knife head. I'll see you off in my house, and my relatives will support you all the time. I'll be among the top ones in white hair, and I'll be ashamed of myself when I'm drunk."
"Young man has a special gift, look at Wu Gou with a smile..."
The vigorous and powerful military songs resounded throughout Temple Street, and the murderous aura unique to the soldiers spread across the streets.
On both sides of the road, people from the Ming Dynasty gathered around to watch the army march!
Some people even started singing military songs along with the soldiers!
Wang Guanghan, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Army's Northern Expedition and the commander of the Third Brigade of the Seventeenth Division of the Ming Dynasty, rode on horseback on the street and accepted the cheers of the people on both sides of the road.
In his ears were loud military songs and cheers one after another, and the expression on his face was slightly excited.
Wang Guanghan is only thirty-five years old this year and graduated from the second formal class of the Ming Dynasty Royal Lecture Hall Military Academy.
He is a hawk in the military and is very tough.
After graduating from the military academy, he served in the Royal Guards of the Ming Dynasty, the First Cavalry Division of the Ming Dynasty, the Fifth Infantry Division, and the Third Heavy Artillery Brigade.
He has participated in several foreign wars, made great achievements, and has extremely rich war experience. He showed his prominence in the plateau battle...
He was later promoted to brigade commander and was assigned to take charge of the Northern Expedition to recover Yaksa and restore the Heilongjiang River Basin.
Wang Guanghan led his people into the military camp, and the merchants and common people of the Ming Dynasty on Temple Street spontaneously sent supplies to reward the army.
A large amount of fine wine, meat, and some singing and dancing troupes and opera troupes were also gathered around the military camp, performing performances for these royal masters.
It's just a pity that these people are not allowed to enter the military camp for the time being.
The Ming army in the military camp also followed military discipline and law, and no one dared to leave the camp rashly.
Military camp, in the big tent!
Wang Guanghan summoned the generals in the army to discuss matters, and the civilian officials responsible for the construction of Temple Street City were also present.
Lin Yaozu, the prefect of Temple Street appointed by the imperial court, was the first to stand up and say.
"In order for the King's Division to successfully regain the Yaksa Fortress and sweep across the upper and lower reaches of Heilongjiang, Temple Street has already reserved a considerable amount of supplies in advance."
"It can be used to recruit a large number of civilians immediately after the war to build fortresses in the upper and lower reaches of Heilongjiang..."
The supplies needed for military operations do not need to be intervened by the civilian system. The logistics department under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion will prepare them for the army in advance.
This is something that must be done based on the current principle of separation of military and political affairs in Ming Dynasty!
No one in the military or civil service dared to challenge Zhu Hongyu's bottom line of separation of military and political affairs.
However, the logistics department can be responsible for the materials needed for military operations.
However, construction matters after the war were a matter for civil servants.
Although the imperial court planned to build a series of fortress-style buildings in the upper and lower reaches of Heilongjiang, such fortress-style buildings not only had military value, but also had certain commercial value.
Just like Temple Street!
It is true that the imperial court built a fortress on Temple Street, but Temple Street also played a role in conducting trade with the surrounding indigenous tribes and exchanging supplies.
At this time, it is the turn of the officials in the civil service system to take charge!
It is natural to prepare supplies in advance.
When Wang Guanghan heard this, he nodded.
"Okay, then the military will send people to contact Mr. Lin to discuss the construction of cities in Heilongjiang."
"This time the army is heading north, the transport ships accompanying the army are carrying a large amount of steel and concrete."
"The cement also has a special grade, which can ensure the strength of the building in severe cold weather."
As time goes by, demand continues to increase, and Daming's cement industry is also constantly developing.
Various special purposes and special grade cements have also been developed and produced.
Almost all of the cement that will be used for city construction along the Heilongjiang River this time is special grade cement with very high technical requirements.
And because of the importance of this series of fortresses, Zhu Hongyu also ordered a batch of steel bars to be transferred for construction.
With the opening of several large-scale steel plants and the imperial government's development of coal and iron minerals in Shanxi and Beizhi, Daming's steel output has been rising every year.
Therefore, now Zhu Hongyu can also have the luxury of using steel bars to build city defenses.
In fact, the cities that the imperial court planned to build in the upper and lower reaches of Heilongjiang were not the first batch of reinforced concrete buildings in the Ming Dynasty.
The several fortress satellite cities around Nanjing and the various river defense fortresses on the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River were the first places to use reinforced concrete.
The city wall of Nanjing was demolished, and Zhu Hongyu also felt a little insecure.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Guanghan began to talk about the imperial court's Northern Expedition strategy in front of the map.
"From the current point of view, the first phase of the Imperial Northern Expedition's mission is to recover the city of Yaksa, and then go up the river to capture Nerchinsk..."
"Then, with Yaksa and Nerchinsk as the center, send troops to sweep across all Rakshasa fortresses and settlements in the upper and lower reaches of Heilongjiang!"
"The task is not difficult, but the time is not generous!"
"Judging from the natural environment of Nurgandusi, the window period suitable for large-scale army operations is only three to four months. To be on the safe side, the army should stop attacking after autumn."
"More importantly, in order to allow time for subsequent city construction, the army had better resolve the battle within two months."
Even if the army takes down the front line, workers can immediately follow up to build the city, but it will still take time.
Even when the Ming Dynasty was building the city, the ruins of the settlement buildings left by the Rakshasa people were used for planning and utilization.
If you want to build a city with certain military and civil effects, it will take at least two or three months.
If the Ming army's offensive troops could not quickly open up the situation and end the war in a short period of time, they would not be able to make time for the subsequent labor construction of the city.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Once winter comes, there is really nothing else to do except cat winter!
Lin Yaozu nodded and said.
"Don't worry, Brigadier Wang, I will coordinate the follow-up of the labor team."
"It won't be long before a large group of workers arrive at Temple Street. This group of workers was urgently recruited by the imperial court from Japan."
The workers Lin Yaozu mentioned came from different forces such as the Tokugawa shogunate, the Qing court, and the Satsuma clan.
In total, there are about 20,000 people, which is a lot.
It is very useful for hard-working small-time workers.
When Wang Guanghan heard this, he nodded and said.
"Okay, Sir Laurin has taken the trouble!"
Lin Yaozu heard this and spoke.
"We are all officials of the imperial court. It is natural for us to live under the emperor's salary and be loyal to him."
Since the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court's education on loyalty to the emperor has never fallen behind.
The specific results are not known, but officials have begun to talk about loyalty to the emperor.
If you say it too much, someone will always take it seriously!
Suddenly, Lin Yaozu seemed to remember something and asked.
"When the imperial army attacks Yaksa, I wonder if I can organize the leaders of the indigenous tribes from Nurgandusi to watch the battle?"
Lin Yaozu's idea was very simple. He wanted to use the Ming army's strong fighting skills to intimidate the indigenous tribes in Nuergandusi.
In this way, Ming Dynasty could better carry out relevant work in Nuergandusi and establish the ruling order.
When Wang Guanghan heard this, he seemed to understand what Lin Yaozu meant. He thought for a while, nodded and said.
"Can!"
"Sir Lin, we will count the number of people. Later, I will order someone to clean up a transport ship for Mr. Lin."
Wang Guanghan had no intention of refusing such a simple matter.
Just watching the battle, it’s not a big problem!
The imperial army dispatched for this expedition were all the best of the best, and the weapons were all new weapons.
What I want is to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop with the power of Mount Tai!
So as to show the majesty of Ming Dynasty!
If you want to show off your majesty, you naturally need someone to watch the battle.
Otherwise, it will become a show of self-pleasure for yourself!
…
Yaksa City!
It has been nearly twenty years since Khabarov led his troops to invade Yaksa and built the city of Yaksa.
Within twenty years, the Rakshasa side continuously dispatched manpower and material resources from Yakutsk, Nerchinsk and other places to strengthen the city defense of Yaksa.
After twenty years, Yaksa City has grown to a considerable scale.
For this year's battle to recapture Yaksa, the Ming Dynasty has sent large-scale scouts to the Heilongjiang Basin and even further north since last year.
These scouts were investigating the distribution of garrisons in Rakshasa fortresses, fortresses, and settlements.
As long as we seize the opportunity, we will launch a surprise attack on the Rakshasa people.
Several Rakshasa settlements were eradicated successively, and many victories were achieved.
Naturally, the Rakshasa people would not be unaware of such a big move by the Ming army.
Korchev, the commander of the garrison in Yaksa, was very keenly aware of this.
Then, he further thought that the Ming Dynasty in the south might want to take action against Siberia.
Because, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty was still in the Shunzhi period, the Tsarist Russian invading army on the Yaksa side frequently fought back and forth with the Qing government's garrison in the Heilongjiang Basin.
Although the scale of the battle between the two sides was not large, with only dozens or hundreds of people at most, and you fought and I fought, it still curbed the expansion of Tsarist Russia in the Heilongjiang Basin.
Every time before the Qing army mobilized troops, the most common thing they did was to send out elite sentries to conduct reconnaissance on the battlefield.
It cannot be said to be completely unrelated to what the Ming army is doing now, it can only be said to be exactly the same.
After Kortchev realized this, he began to seek help from Nerchinsk and Yaksa.
On the other hand, the Cossacks' garrisons in the upper and lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River Basin were evacuated, and all manpower and materials were concentrated in Yaksa.
They are preparing to drag the war into winter with the help of Yaksa's stronghold.
After winter came and the weather turned cold, he would cooperate with the reinforcements from Nerchinsk and Yakutsk to repel the Ming army in the future.
"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the news from the east, the Ming Army's fleet has arrived at the Heilongjiang estuary!"
A Cossack came to report to Korchev.
The Ming army made such a big noise in Temple Street and couldn't hide it, nor did they want to hide it from anyone.
Naturally, Korchev can get relevant information.
"How many people are there in the Ming army?"
Kortchev poured himself a sip of vodka, pretended to be calm, and asked.
When he spoke, the expression on his face was full of solemnity.
The Cossacks opened their mouths to report.
"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the information we have received, the army sent by the Ming Dynasty has about three thousand people."
"However, among the fleet entering the Heilongjiang River Basin, there are four third-level sailing battleships, and one of the battleships is an iron ship..."
Kortchev couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
An army of three thousand men and four third-level sailing battleships already made him feel a little nervous.
You know, even if each third-level sailing battleship is equipped with a minimum of sixty-four guns.
The four sail battleships are estimated to have more than 250 artillery pieces in total.
If each battleship is equipped with a slightly larger number of guns, it would not be a problem to add up to 300 guns.
That's three hundred large-caliber naval guns!
Whether Yaksa City can stop it is really unknown...
Not to mention the strength gap between the two sides, the Ming army transferred 3,000 troops to Yaksa.
And the garrison in Yaksa City, even including the Cossacks upstream and downstream, only has seven or eight hundred people together.
In the Battle of Yaksa in history, the number of troops that Tsarist Russia mobilized back and forth was almost this number.
The Qing army mobilized only three to four thousand troops.
Not much different before and after!
It's just that for Ming Dynasty, three thousand people were transferred because three thousand people were enough, and no more would be a waste.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for the Manchus, they could only mobilize three thousand people.
Because, compared to the Ming Dynasty who directly mobilized troops by sea, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties had to go through the entire northeast to transfer grain, grass and baggage to Yaksa, which was much more expensive.
For the Manchus, maintaining an elite force of 3,000 men to fight in Yaksa was already the best they could do.
If there are more, someone might not die in battle but starve to death!
As for unofficial records, it is said that Kangxi mobilized tens of thousands of people to participate in the Battle of Yaksa and besieged the city of Yaksa.
As long as you use your brain a little, you will know that this is completely unrealistic.
People who say this, do you know how much food and grass it takes to maintain tens of thousands of troops fighting outside the Great Wall, four or five thousand miles away from the pass?
Do you know how difficult it is to transport grain and grass to Yaksa by land, through the entire almost undeveloped Northeastern region?
Even if it is a conservative estimate, the number of civilians transporting grain and grass must be at least ten times that of the frontline combat troops.
This adds up to hundreds of thousands of people serving in such a war!
If Kangxi really had the ability to mobilize tens of thousands of people to participate in the Battle of Yaksa, his first choice would definitely not be to fight with Lao Maozi in the ice and snow of the Northeast, but to send troops to find his good son-in-law Galdan to "talk about life."
Talk about ideals”!
Korchev realized the seriousness of the matter and spoke.
"Immediately send people to Nerchinsk and Yakutsk to ask for help, and ask them to send all their troops to rescue immediately."
"Otherwise, Yaksa will be in danger!"
Originally, Korchev was not too anxious about reinforcements, thinking that as long as reinforcements from Nerchinsk and Yakutsk arrived in winter, it would be enough.
Because he has confidence in the city defense of Yaksa City!
In his opinion, the defense of the bastion was invincible, and neither the east nor the west lacked the means to attack the bastion.
So he is not in a hurry!
However, when he learned that the Ming army's warships could unload three hundred naval guns and use them to attack the city, Korchev's confidence disappeared.
Three hundred large-caliber naval guns are fully capable of turning the city of Yaksa into a ruin!
Although Yaksa City is indeed a bastion, its scale is actually not that big.
If the Ming army wanted to use enough heavy artillery to bombard Pingyaksa, it would not be a big problem.
But without the city defense of Yaksa City, seven to eight hundred versus three thousand, it was obvious that they were at a disadvantage.
Korchev felt anxious and began to inspect the defense of Yaksa City and prepare for the deployment of all soldiers.
The Rakshasa people in Yaksa are not only a group of men, but also a certain number of women and children.
At critical moments, these women and children can also pick up guns and fight.
…
Temple Street, the Ming army repaired Temple Street for a day, then pulled anchor and set sail on the second day, heading westward.
Ships of various sizes were sailing upstream along the Heilongjiang River, with sails connected to the sky and the ground, as if they were trying to cover the sight of countless people.
In the vast Heilongjiang River, fish jump out of the water from time to time, and the golden sunlight shines on the water, causing splashes of water.
At the same time, Lin Yaozu also sent people to notify the tribal chiefs near Temple Street, preparing to wait for them to gather before taking a transport ship and starting to catch up with the main force of the fleet.
…
On May 20th, the fourth year after the Ming Dynasty was restored, the Ming fleet sailed up the river and arrived near the city of Yaksa.
Although there is still a distance for the time being, the lookout on the Ming army's warship can already see the outline of Yaksa City not far away.
At the same time, Yaksa City also noticed the approaching Ming fleet!
Korchev stood in the command room at the top of the city, looking at the dark fleet on the river in the distance, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
Just looking at the fleet from a distance, he felt a great sense of danger.
Especially that "iron ship"!
Looking at the reflective steel armor on the ship, Korchev felt his eyes darkening.
He couldn't figure out how the ship made of steel by Akito floated.
As time passed, the ships of the Ming army gradually approached.
The leading ship released two hot air balloons for observation purposes.
The hot air balloon quickly took off, and the observers looked through the telescope in the direction of Yaksa City.
Then through calculation, the bombardment elements of the naval gun were determined.
Prepare for the fleet bombardment later.
At the same time, the Ming army also began to prepare for landing.
The troop transport ship approached the shore, and the soldiers organized landings in small boats according to teams.
After completing the landing, the soldiers immediately formed combat formations and prepared for war.
Wang Guanghan stood on the bridge, holding a telescope in his hand.
On a table in front of him was a defense map of Yaksa City.
As time goes by, the hot air balloon continues to report relevant news, and the defense map is constantly being marked and improved.
The shooting of Zhu Yuan was also communicated to the lower gun deck after several confirmations, so that the gunners could prepare.
The gunners began to prepare for the bombardment!
After the Ming army's landing troops landed on the shore in front of Yaksa City, they began to set up camp.
A Ming Army engineer began to quickly dig trenches to prepare for the deployment of rotating machine guns and large-caliber siege mortars.
Rotary machine guns, large-caliber siege mortars, and corresponding ammunition were continuously transferred from the transport ship.
The Ming army quickly prepared for war!
The defenders on the Yaksa side also noticed this scene, and Korchev ordered the fort to launch artillery fire, preparing to rely on artillery fire to block the Ming army's landing.
Boom! Boom!
Boom boom boom!
The roar of artillery shelling resounded, and artillery shells were fired one after another towards the Ming army's position on the beach.
The solid cannonballs rolled and rotated, spraying large amounts of mud.
However, the kinetic energy carried by the artillery shells was also absorbed by the mud, and could not cause any harm to the landing Ming troops.
In fact, the artillery on the fort in Yaksa City is not that big.
The largest one can shoot a dozen cannonballs weighing about twenty pounds!
In other words, this heavy artillery can almost hit the beachhead.
The remaining artillery has limited range and power, and cannot threaten the Ming army that is launching a landing on the beach.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And with such a cannon, it fired solid shells, so the Ming army did not panic at all.
They have experienced many large-scale bombardment scenes, and they really will not take such a level of bombardment to heart.
Of course, the reason why Yaksa City is mostly filled with small cannons.
It's not that Lao Maozi can't cast bigger artillery, but even if it is cast, it won't be transported to the Far East.
The distance is too far!
The distance from Eastern Europe, the core ruling area of Tsarist Russia, to Yaksa is much farther than the distance from Guannai to Yaksa in the Ming Dynasty.
It is not an easy task to transport heavy artillery weighing several thousand kilograms over such a long distance.
Seeing this scene, Wang Guanghan pointed at the fort in Yaksa City with his finger, and said the order very calmly.
"Send the order to the artillery, prepare a round of rapid fire, and help me knock out the Rakshasa's city defense heavy artillery!"
"Provide fire cover for the soldiers to land!"
When the ordering soldier heard this, he trotted off to convey the order.
Soon, the Ming fleet began to prepare for an artillery attack.
The gunners quickly adjusted the firing elements, loaded the artillery, and prepared for calibrated firing.
boom!
A roar resounded as the gunpowder exploded and pushed the shell out of the barrel.
A cannonball drew an arc in the air and shot toward the fort at the head of Yaksa's city.
With a loud bang, the shells passed over the fort and hit the houses near the fort.
The heavy shells instantly destroyed the house and filled the house with smoke and dust.
This shot caused the Cossack gunners on the fort to panic.
Because to them, the Ming army's artillery fire was too accurate.
Just a little bit, just a little bit, the Ming army's artillery shells would hit their heads.
What you need to know is that the Ming army is now firing naval guns, not fixed forts on land.
Due to the unstable water surface and wind and waves, the shooting accuracy of naval guns will be greatly affected.
But even so, the Ming army's artillery shells almost hit the fort, which shows how excellent the quality of the Ming army's gunners was.
"School shooting is completed, shooting Zhu Yuan is confirmed!"
"All gun positions are ready to load and fire immediately!"
"..."
The next moment, the Ming army, which had completed its school shooting, began artillery fire.
The moment the Ming army's shelling began, the entire city of Yaksa was silent, and then there was an overwhelming shelling.
The sounds of artillery strikes combined together sounded like thunder.
This movement is very much like the power of God!
Boom! Boom!
The entire Heilongjiang river was instantly filled with smoke.
Artillery shells were fired one after another at the fort in Yaksa City.
In the sky, dense black dots drew arcs and fell towards the fort.
Immediately afterwards, there was the roar and black smoke of the explosive bomb explosion, faintly mixed with the light of fire.
The fragments quickly swept around, covering the entire fort.
In Yaksa City, the largest artillery gun was only twenty pounds, but for the Ming army's warships, a twenty-pound naval gun with almost the same power was just a starting point.
One can imagine how big the gap between the shelling of the two sides is!
Not to mention that the artillery of the Ming army was rifled, and the artillery shells used explosive shells.
The scale of the shelling on both sides is completely different!
Not far away, the chiefs of the indigenous tribes who were watching the battle on a troop transport ship were also stunned at the shelling scene over there.
Some people were even frightened to the point of peeing, and the foul smell spread with the wind.
Lin Yaozu put on a smiling face and quietly watched the bombardment of the Ming fleet, his expression extremely calm.
The chiefs of these tribes all opened their mouths. They once thought that the Rakshasa people's guns and artillery were terrifying enough.
It wasn't until today that they realized what real shelling was!
The sound of more than a hundred heavy cannons firing together was almost comparable to thunder, and even caused the heaven and earth to change color.
The recoil of the shelling was transmitted to the river through the hull!
Ripples appeared on the river surface.
Even the transport ship in the distance was shaking slightly.
The momentum is extremely terrifying!
The Ming fleet used three rounds of rapid fire and nearly twenty rounds of covering artillery to knock out the forts in Yaksa City.
The moment the Ming army's shelling stopped, the entire battlefield became silent.
The artillery in Yaksa City has long been silenced!
In the direction of Yaksa City, there were faint screams and wails.
At the same time, the Ming army, which had completed the landing, also began to prepare for the siege.
The zigzag trenches continued to advance towards the city of Yaksa, and mortars specially used for siege were also continuously transported into the gun emplacements.
The rotating machine guns also entered the position, ready to start suppressing fire at any time.
Korchev looked at the Ming army launching an orderly offensive outside the city, and then looked back at the ruined fort.
As well as those city defense cannons that had become deformed and twisted under the bombardment of the Ming army, they opened their mouths, but in the end they could not speak.
Deep in his heart he was constantly struggling and full of pain.
From the moment the Ming army launched its artillery bombardment, Korchev had already realized.
Yaksa City, it’s over!
How long did it take before the artillery in Yaksa City was knocked out?
Once the Ming army launched an attack under the cover of artillery bombardment, the city of Yaksa would fall in the blink of an eye.
"Fight back! Fight back immediately!"
"Fire with muskets to prevent the Ming army from approaching Yaksa City!"
"..."
Korchev continuously ordered the troops to fight back.
Amidst the crackling sound of musket fire, projectiles were fired towards the Ming army who were digging trenches.
It's just a pity that the Cossacks all used matchlock guns, and the accuracy of matchlock guns can only be said to be understandable.
To talk about hit rate from a distance of several hundred meters is to be a hooligan!
But even so, the Ming army did not take a unilateral attack without fighting back.
The rifle shooters of the Ming army also started shooting.
A rifled gun shooter fired freely, and the gunshots were crisp and scattered.
Projectiles were fired one after another at the Cossack musketeer who was shooting from his head.
Even if there was a long distance between the two sides, the Ming army's rifle shooters could still score hits from time to time.
The Cossacks at the top of the city were beaten so hard that they could not even lift their heads.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Some people even started to play the African customized version of Faith Shooting.
Although Ming Dynasty now has breech-loading rifles and has achieved a certain amount of production.
However, due to the structural problems of the breech-loading gun, air leakage problems still exist, and its range and accuracy are not very good.
It is the rate of fire that makes up for these shortcomings.
To shoot accurately, you still have to use a rifled gun!
At least, that's the case for now.
The Ming army and the Cossacks exchanged fire across a city wall. It was very obvious that the Ming army had the upper hand in the shooting.
Although there were occasional casualties, they were undoubtedly nothing compared to the casualties suffered by the Cossacks.
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!
The next moment, the clicking sound of a rotating machine gun was heard.
The machine gunners of the Ming Army began to shoot in the direction of Yaksa City, preparing to finally determine whether the position of the machine gun positions was reasonable and prepare for the next siege.
Projectiles were fired one after another on the walls of Yaksa City, and the dense bullet chains created a series of smoke and dust on the city walls.
The earth and rocks exploded!
Mortars are also constantly being transported to the front lines.
The Ming army's naval guns also took the opportunity to launch another wave of fire suppression.
A round of shells was fired towards the top of the city of Yaksa.
Amidst the rumbling explosions, explosive bombs exploded among the crowd.
Thick black smoke enveloped the fire and raged.
Shrapnel washed away the narrow city head of Yaksa with blood, and there were shocking broken limbs everywhere.
Some of the wounded were lying on the ground, wailing!
Some artillery shells fell into the city of Yaksa, and the explosion flames ignited the wooden buildings in the city, and black smoke billowed...
Korchev was carried off the city wall surrounded by his subordinates.
Because just now, a bomb dropped not far from him.
Although the fragments were blocked by the bodyguards beside him, the shock wave still knocked him out.
During the offensive battle of the Ming army, the Cossacks in Yaksa City performed quite poorly.
Obviously, the Cossacks, who were good at fighting and had rich combat experience in the past, were not adapted to the Ming army's current style of play.
Not long after the war started, they were beaten to the point where they lost all control.
After Korchev was affected by explosive shells and fell into a coma, and lost command in the city of Yaksa, he became even more desperate.
Wang Guanghan put down the telescope in his hand and couldn't help frowning.
"That's it?"
"I thought that attacking Yaksa City would be a tough battle!"
Out of caution, Zhu Hongyu simply anticipated the enemy's preparations for the battle in Yaksa City.
Before Wang Guanghan and others set off for the expedition, he even gave Wang Guanghan several instructions, telling him to cheer up and take it seriously.
The emperor's cautious attitude made Wang Guanghan wary of Yaksa City, and he was even ready to fight Yaksa City into a tug-of-war.
The results of it?
The Ming army has not officially launched its attack yet, and the city of Yaksa seems to have lost its resistance...
It’s true that I didn’t expect it!
Although Wang Guanghan did not dare to complain about the emperor, he still felt that he was a little out of touch.
…
