"Yes! The artillery that the imperial court has just added is another batch of small-caliber fire, isn't it?" Several generals were obviously not sure. They looked at each other and immediately called for a subordinate to ask.
It's not that the generals don't care about artillery, they just don't care about the small-caliber artillery. In their opinion, those artillery pieces with short range and low power are not easy to use at all, and they are not as good as those large-caliber artillery pieces.
This cannot be blamed on these people. They have just used artillery for a short time. In fact, they still don’t know what is the correct way to use artillery.
"Everyone, large-caliber artillery is important, but we cannot ignore those small-caliber artillery. We cannot simply compare their power. The reason why the imperial court developed small-caliber artillery is to deal with various problems!" Zhou Yi actually knew little about artillery, although he even
I have never seen it with my own eyes, but in reality, I still know something about it through film and television materials.
"Moreover, these small-caliber artillery are actually intended to be distributed to grassroots troops. If those small-caliber artillery can be seen early and distributed to grassroots troops, there will be no need to fight guerrilla warfare in cities where the enemy is afraid. As long as the enemy is found,
Just pick up the artillery and strike! Then you don’t have to worry about anything anymore.”
When several generals heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up. Zhou Yi's words seemed to open up a new world for them. Previously, they had never thought of distributing artillery to grassroots troops. No matter what kind of artillery, they were basically given to the artillery.
The troops and artillery troops have long been accustomed to using artillery with huge power and long range. Naturally, they don't look down on those artillery with short range and low power.
This also led to the fact that the Central Plains army, which had acquired those small-caliber artillery for some time, did not pay attention to those small-caliber artillery at all.
It was not too late to remedy the situation. The Central Plains Dynasty immediately ordered the artillery unit to train grassroots soldiers. After many days, those grassroots soldiers had learned basic artillery techniques.
Without further ado, after these soldiers were basically able to operate artillery, the artillery was immediately distributed to the grassroots troops.
With their own artillery, the combat effectiveness of the grassroots soldiers was greatly increased. After a day of familiarization, the Central Plains army once again launched a strong attack on the royal court of the Mengge tribe.
Facing the strong attack of the Central Plains army again, the Mengge tribe once again resorted to urban guerrilla warfare. A few days ago, Mengge tribe soldiers used urban guerrilla warfare to successfully block the Central Plains army. This also brought the Mengge tribe, which was on the verge of collapse, to a standstill.
Brother tribe, instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
But once again resorting to urban guerrilla warfare, the soldiers of the Mengge tribe found that the situation was different from the situation a few days ago.
The Central Plains army actually produced an unknown small-caliber artillery, and it was also distributed to the grassroots troops.
Once the defenders of the Mengge tribe were discovered by the Central Plains army, the Central Plains army would immediately take out artillery to bombard the opponent. These small-caliber artillery were very light and could often be fully operated by two people.
With the research of grassroots troops, they gradually mastered some skills in using small-caliber artillery. These guys even gave those small-caliber artillery a name. In order to facilitate shooting, they put the cannon in a fixed posture, much like a tiger.
It looks like squatting, hence the name.
This kind of lightweight artillery has a thin barrel and a short range, but it is more suitable for mountain combat. It is maneuverable and flexible. Because it is front-mounted, it can be fired at a large elevation angle and can be equipped with a large number of grassroots troops. It has the same purpose as a real mortar.
With the Tiger Crouching Cannon, the Central Plains army was even more powerful. The army was approaching step by step and besieged from all sides. In the Wangting City of the Mengge Tribe, it began to narrow the encirclement of the Mengge Tribe.
The artillery troops also began to set up artillery positions on the city walls. With the addition of artillery attacks, the Mengge tribe's urban guerrilla tactics suddenly lost much effect. This was a fatal blow to the Mengge tribe.
Already on the verge of collapse, the morale of the Mengge tribe had recovered somewhat, but within a few days, they were pinned to the ground and rubbed by the Central Plains army again. The morale of the Mengge tribe fell to the extreme again.
As a last resort, Brother Meng sent out his Wolf Guards. The Wolf Guards were Brother Meng's personal guards, and they were also responsible for certain intelligence work. There were many top-notch experts, some similar to the Jinyi Guards. Of course, this Wolf Guard was still Meng Brother.
After he won the position of the Great Khan of the Grassland, he was modeled after the intelligence organizations of various countries. To be honest, it was not very short-lived and not very powerful. Even Xixia Yipintang Yuanyuan could not compare, let alone Hehe Jinyiwei.
Compared.
The Jin Yiwei had been secretly monitoring the movements of the wolf guards for a long time. As soon as they saw the wolf guards moving, the Jin Yiwei also began to take action. The targets of the Jin Yiwei were clearly those wolf guards.
The Wolf Guard achieved some results at the beginning, assassinating some grassroots officers from the Central Plains and causing some trouble to the besieged Central Plains army. But unfortunately, after a few days, especially after the Jin Yiwei designed an ambush, even
The Wolf Guard is basically finished.
At that time, after discovering that the Wolf Guards had assassinated officers of the army's basic troops, the Jinyiwei used a trick to lure most of the Wolf Guards, using a senior officer who was supervising the frontline operations as a child, and then directly took action and annihilated them one by one.
But the senior officer supervising the battle on the front line was dumbfounded. In order for Jin Yiwei's plan to go smoothly, Jin Yiwei did not tell the senior officer. By the time he realized that this was Jin Yiwei's plan, the Wolf Guard had already been eliminated.
But the senior officer was still very angry, and at one point wanted to ask Jin Yiwei for an explanation. Zeng Yi and others were too lazy to pay attention to him, let alone a senior officer supervising operations on the front line. Zeng Yi had done this so many times that the general acted as a child.
Zeng Yi spoke directly. If you are not convinced, you can go directly to them.
There are several big bosses of the Jinyiwei in the army, including Zeng Yi, the current commander of the Jinyiwei, Qinglong, the former commander of the Jinyiwei, and Shaantian, a close confidant of the Queen. In the end, the senior officer did not bother to go to them to ask for an explanation.
.
After most of the Wolf Guards were wiped out by the Jinyi Guards, Meng Ge was forced to a corner. As the Central Plains army encroached on the royal court of the Meng Ge Tribe step by step, men from the Meng Ge Tribe began to surrender on their own initiative.
Of course, Meng Ge knew that the people of the tribe were disbanded, but he had no other choice. Apart from ordering each unit to restrain his soldiers, Meng Ge could only resign himself to fate.
Zeng Yi and others have not taken action. They have been waiting for the top-notch masters around Meng to show up. Those top-notch masters are quite strong. They are all tribe members that Meng has trained hard over the years and are very loyal to him.
