Chapter 405

: If you can't beat it, you will attack

Author: There are dragons in Nanshan

: If you can't beat it, you will attack

"Your Highness, the reinforcements from the court are here!"

"good!"

When King Ning heard this, he was overjoyed and asked quickly: "Where is it?"

“Camp outside the city.”

King Ning was even more happy. Setting up camp outside the city means that there were many people coming.

The emperor is still very helpful, and he really helps when something happens!

"How many people have come?"

"About... more than one hundred?"

"What?"

King Ning thought he had heard it wrong and asked again: "How many people did you say come?"

"More than one hundred..."

"impossible!"

King Ning said angrily: "The court has made such a big move, so he has transferred a hundred people? Did these hundred people fight against the front line?"

"When you go back to your highness, I asked the young man, and the court sent these people, and there were no more."

Now, I can't mess with King Ning anymore.

He once thought that the court would not care about his request for help. After all, Uszang had already given him a title. If the court sent troops to conquer, who would be the one who would be defeated?

But it would be fine if you don’t send people. Now there are only one hundred people. What’s going on?

Could it be just to disgust people?

The more you think about it, the more angry you become, the older your eldest nephew is simply too bullying!

"Where is Lord Yu now?"

"Go back to Your Highness, I've already gone to the camp outside the city."

"Let's go and have a look!"

"Your Highness, do you want to... bring something rewarded?"

Wang Ning wanted to say he was wearing some hair, but after a while he was struggling, he said, "Go and prepare some cattle, sheep, fruits and vegetables!"

——

A camp has been established on a clearing field outside the city.

The place was chosen by Belin and Mei Chun because this team is very special. Strictly speaking, they are not soldiers who charge in battle, but students from the Kongming Lantern Research Institute.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is not a combat force at all.

Only they themselves know that the next battle will completely overturn the world's cognition.

The camping location should not be too close to the front line, otherwise, if it is attacked by the enemy, the result will be very bad.

King Ning's troops were hoarded in Yazhou City, so Belin and Mei Chun chose outside Chengdu Prefecture.

It is easy to get in or out of the railway line, and it is also very convenient to buy supplies.

Yu Qian got the will to cooperate with Belin with all his strength, and he was very confused about this.

Belin is from the Academy of Sciences and is responsible for the development of various weapons and fresh things. These things are extremely powerful when fighting. However, if a equipment research and development team is the main force, he holds the troops in his own hands, but he is just a cooperation?

Such an arrangement really makes sense...

He didn't understand, so he came to Belin, and after greetings, he talked about the battle situation of Uszang, especially the difficulties encountered during the battle.

The battle situation here is basically similar to what the emperor said, mainly because the Ming army considered the issue of war damage and believed that strong attacks were not cost-effective.

It’s like a landlord who has a wealthy family, and a poor mouse living next door, crying.

The landlord said, the house you live in is mine, I lent it to my family to live in, and now I want to take it back.

Of course I was unwilling to be poor, so the two sides had a conflict.

The landlord Laocai wanted to die and lose his poverty, and there were ten thousand ways, but he needed to consider the cost.

The Ming Dynasty is now the landlord and old wealth. As long as you invest enough troops and money and food, there will be no problem in taking down Uszang.

However, considering the price to pay, it is really unpaid to think about what you can get by capturing Uszang.

Uszang's King Sangdu, who saw the concerns of the Ming Dynasty, fully interpreted the old saying that barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes.

It is almost equivalent to standing on the top of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and shouting to the Ming army at the foot of the mountain—

Come and beat me, come and beat me!

Yu Qian was also very hesitant, fight, the price was too high, not too high, I couldn't swallow this...

However, when he heard about the tactics this time, he immediately looked shocked.

If a small Kongming lantern can work, then all problems will be solved!

King Ning arrived in a hurry, and both sides greeted each other and immediately got to the point.

Belin roughly described the emperor's will and the tactics of the Academy of Sciences.

After hearing this, King Ning looked very surprised.

Such a tactic is unheard of before and is simply incredible.

Can the small Kongming lantern determine the situation of the battle?

You know, I have been working on the front line for almost a year and have spent countless money and food, but I can't get rid of this hard bone.

Muskets and cannons are powerful, but... expensive!

One shell would have fifty taels of silver, and one bullet would cost about two taels of silver. Every time the two sides fought, King Ning felt pain.

That's all white money!

What's even more annoying is that due to the special terrain of Uszang, even if he conquers a position, it will be extremely difficult to defend it.

The ammunition supply was delivered from Chengdu Prefecture to the mountain, and the journey was very difficult.

The ammunition sent by the rear was exhausted and exhausted, and the front line only needed a small-scale battle and was consumed in an instant.

If the Ming army does not rely on firearms, although the Ming army has high combat literacy, it still does not have an advantage in combat under the oxygen-deficient environment of the plateau.

King Chanhua made full use of the terrain advantages and started guerrilla warfare with the Ming army.

If you hit me with a cannon, I will run away.

When you set up a camp, I will attack you!

You have ammunition, and I still run.

When you run out of ammunition, I'm here again!

This made King Ning collapse after repeated repeated attempts.

As a last resort, he had to temporarily withdraw the army back to Yazhou Prefecture and wait for the imperial court to support it before making plans.

Support is now available, but...

I want troops, ammunition, supplies, and I don’t want Kongming lanterns!

"This thing is still under control when it flies into the sky?"

Beilin replied: "After the weather is appropriate, you can master the wind speed, wind direction and other factors, and it can be done after calculation."

King Ning still didn't believe it. He spent countless money and food here, but he was helpless. The combined Kongming lanterns are not as good as the consumption of a cannon for me. What role can it play?

"You mean, this thing can fly over the enemy and drop the bomb?"

“That’s exactly that!”

Seeing that Ning Wang was disgusted, Belin had to explain: "Although the technology is not mature enough now and the hit rate has not met expectations, as long as there are enough numbers, the lethality is still very considerable."

King Ning was confused for a while, looked at Yu Qian and asked, "Shu Yu, what do you think?"

Yu Qian nodded and said, "The officials think it is feasible!"

"Really feasible?"

“At least… worth a try.”

King Ning felt even more assured. The more the battle continued, the more unfavorable it would be for him.

He really wanted to fight quickly, rather than wasting time with the Academy of Sciences here.

The daily food and drink of tens of thousands of people on the front line alone is amazing enough.

But, someone is holding an imperial edict in his hand...

Now there is no other way, so I can only try it.

"Tell me, how should I cooperate?"

Belin said: "Your Highness only needs to set up the front line, take an attacking posture, and then wait."
