"After this battle, we must reform the garrison system so that all the officers and soldiers in the world belong to the country, and there will be no selfless soldiers. At that time, we will need to call on a group of border town generals who are conscious and loyal enough to take the initiative to accept reform and reorganization. Man Gui, Zhao Rujiao, and Cao Wenzhao are now willing to fight for the country like the Imperial Army, so we will give them a chance to set an example for the future transformation of border troops!"

As Zhu Youxiao said, he said to Xiong Tingbi: "These three divisions were first combined into one army and formed the Hu Ben Army. Among them, Zhao Lujiao was a martial jinshi in the 19th year of Wanli. He had the most qualifications. He was appointed as the general instructor, followed by Man Gui, and then as the general. Cao Wenzhao was still a guerrilla for the time being. If he made a contribution, he would be promoted to the deputy general! He ordered him to follow Sun Chuanting out of the pass immediately."

"yes!"

Xiong Tingbi replied.

So, next, the first batch of Ming government troops leaving Fushun Pass increased from the original 100,000 troops to 120,000.

The 120,000 troops were led by Sun Chuanting and marched directly towards Hetuala.

The more than 300,000 border troops who were still in Fushun Pass were prepared to go to Qingyuan, Jiefanzhai, Yahuguan and Xinbin respectively, from four directions, southeast, west and north, and camped step by step in the four directions of encirclement on all sides.

Ma, You, Ma, He, Du, and Qin led their respective children and servants to take on the main force of the division and joint attack.

Zhu Youxiao also came to Sarhu when Qin Liangyu's three thousand white-rod soldiers, the imperial guard camp and the five hundred Jinyiwei cavalry while operating more than 300,000 border troops.

Yuan Keli and Xiong Tingbi followed him with him.

Man Gui, Zhao Rujiao, Cao Wenzhao and the other two were fortunate to follow the troops and follow the Guards and the Brave Guards led by Sun Chuanting. Now, they have arrived at Maerdunzhai.

Although they are taking on the role of pioneers, their speed is not fast.

The reason why it was unhappy was not only because Sun Chuanting was cautious in using troops, but because the infantry artillery equipment rate of the Ming Guards and the Brave Guards was very high.

There are tens of thousands of artillery types such as rifled guns and smoothbore mortars.

Although the artillery carriages in the Ming Dynasty already have shock absorption systems and the wheels are also made of plasticized rubber, it still takes time to carry so many artillery.

Man Guidu had to Zhao Rujiao for this reason and said, "Damn it, I said that the border army was asked to plow the yard, the guards and the brave guards took on the main attack. I can see that they came to plow the yard. There were so many artillery shots, even if there were 100,000 Eastern Barbarians, they could be plowed into meat paste."

"Otherwise, what do you think we did when we were urging so much taxes when we performed our duties in the West Factory? They all turned into these artillery!"

"The General Administration of Ordnance Manufacturing now raises hundreds of thousands of craftsmen, and they all get so much wages. They are just working on building these guns and cannons. I heard that with steam engines, the speed of building cannons is faster, and the backlog of armories is serious, and many of them are starting to rust. His Majesty's efforts to destroy the Donglu are not only to destroy the Donglu, but also to consume these backlogs of guns, cannons and ammunition here to make some use of it."

Zhao Rujiao followed up and started talking.

"The court's financial resources are all used on this. The Guards and the Brave Guards are rich in guns and cannons. Our border troops are actually much richer than before. There are also many new flintlock rifles installed, and the bows and crossbows are even more pivoted as much as they want. You must know that more than ten years ago, during the Temple Court, my servants under my command thought that everyone had a three-eyed gun, either because they were rough or there was not enough iron."

Man Gui continued.

"Can the temple be compared with the present? The current court's tariff revenue alone is much higher than the inputs of the treasury in the past. Moreover, the court is making firearms many times faster now. After hearing that the steam engine ate coal, it can forge iron blocks day and night. Guns and cannons can come out of the factory continuously. Look, after the Donglu is destroyed, there will be wars. Otherwise, so many guns and cannons are not used to kill people, can they still be eaten?"

Zhao Rujiao replied with a sneer.

The Ming Guards and the Brave Guards are indeed very generous now, and they seem to suffer from panic disorder due to insufficient firepower. Each army and each town carries a large number of artillery.

When the first large village where the Donglu had heavily stationed, Fangzhou Village, was stationed, thousands of artillery pieces were set up in the first town of the Ming Guards at the forefront of this village.

Ye Chen, the deputy commander of the Donglu, who is the largest landlord and guard in this village, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing this scene. He had never seen an army that transported so many cannons at once.

Moreover, Ye Chen, who had fought with the Guards and the Brave Guards many times, also knew the power of these new artillery in the Ming army.

So, Ye Chen couldn't help but say, "This is impossible to defend at all. If so many artillery shells are fired, the village wall will not be able to bear it at all. You have to defend it in another way and send orders. All Niulu will withdraw from the village wall and retreat back to the village. Rely on the terrain in the village to fight the Ming army to death! Give the Khans and the others enough time to react. In addition, Oboi, you will immediately return to Hetuala and tell the Khans and the others that the Ming army is coming with great force and there are many artillery. There is no need to defend the village city to death. You need to escape into the mountains and forests and deal with it!"

"twitter!"

After Obai replied here, he immediately ran down the village wall.

"Walk!"

Ye Chen also followed him and ran under the village wall.

Although the Donglu has been living a very difficult life due to the economic blockade of the Ming Dynasty, coupled with the Ming Dynasty's wheel war strategy and the plunder of smallpox, they have severely reduced their staff internally, the Eight Banners nobles of the Donglu are still in the early stage of a burst of talent. Therefore, whether it is Nurhaci or Huang Taiji, the top Eight Banners nobles, even Ye Chen and Obai, the middle and lower Eight Banners nobles, they have good abilities, and even at this moment, they can remain calm and calm in dealing with it.

Otherwise, in history, these people would not be able to control Han warlords such as Wu Sangui, and could also obey the Han scholars and officials.

But now the Ming Dynasty has changed everything because Emperor Zhu Youxiao is no longer the Zhu Youxiao in history. The officers and generals who fought against him are not inferior to those of these Eight Banners elites in terms of ability and character. From Sun Chuanting to Zhou Yuji, Lu Xiangsheng, even if they were beaten for a fight and were demoted to Mao Wenlong, a cavalry of an ordinary guard, were all national sages who left a strong mark at a certain period in history.

But in this era, they all gathered together because of Zhu Youxiao.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Shortly after Ye Chen and others got off the village wall, artillery on the Ming army also began to be bombard.

As Ye Chen expected, not long after, the entire Fangzhou Village wall collapsed several places.

Ye Chen saw this scene and couldn't help but curse: "The Ming army is so rich! There are so many shells like it's raining. Unfortunately, I, the Qing Dynasty, did not have so many artillery pieces! Otherwise, I, would have to hit Shenyang and Liaoyang and slaughtered all the Ming people. However, they should end now. Next, it's time for my Qing warriors to show their power! Let's continue to command, and all are ready. When the Ming army comes in, they will shoot out all the arrows in their hands, not giving the Ming army a chance to react. Although the Ming army is powerful, we are hiding in the dark now. They can only find us and shoot us. At that time, they have reached our range."

"The artillery fire continues to extend! The three artillery departments fired alternately, first with live ammunition, then the flowering ammunition, then the rocket carts were withdrawn, the rockets were on the rockets, and the infantry were ready to go out. Once the Donggu people rushed out, they would line up and shoot them!"

Zhou Yuji, who was in charge of command, found that the wall of the village was bombed and collapsed, and he guessed that the Donglu people must have been hiding in the village. He was in the goal of destroying the Donglu's vitality, so he naturally did not rush to let the guards rush in and occupy the village. Instead, he asked the artillery to continue pushing the artillery forward and then continue firing artillery to force the Donglu people to come out to fight. Without the intention of Ye Chen, he rushed into the village and consumed the lives of the soldiers.

Anyway, the Ming Dynasty was rich and powerful.

If you have a lot of wealth, you will naturally have a lot of wealth and energy.
