The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty - Chapter 1377
Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, the crowd saluted one after another.
Li Yuanqing waved his hand, “big brother, what’s going on?”
Chen Zhong pointed to the front and said in a low voice: “Yuanqing, you can see that there are nearly a hundred Tartars piled up in front of them. For a moment, the brothers did not understand what they wanted to do
It’s a good moonlight tonight.
Although the north wind howled and “whooshed” straight, the moonlight was very clear. Even though no torch was lit up in front of and behind the Jin army fortifications, the visibility was good.
In front of them, the later Jin army obviously wanted to cover up the mounds. The top and the surrounding areas were covered with leaves and sand. They wanted to make the mounds not too eye-catching.
It’s a pity that the Ming army’s subjective battle platform is very high. At this time, it is over 20 meters. In addition, the moonlight has helped a lot. Standing on the subjective battle platform, you can clearly see these mounds that the Jin army wants to hide, but there are some abrupt earth mounds.
Li Yuanqing ‘s eyebrows are also tightly wrinkled.
No fire without wind.
In such a decisive battle, these dogs and Tartars can never be aimless. Since they have done so, they have spent manpower and material resources, and piled up these dirt mounds in the night, they can never be useless.
But Li Yuanqing couldn’t see for a moment what these earth mounds were used for.
Chen Zhong said in a low voice: “Yuanqing, at noon today, when the Tartars changed their defense and let abatai, the dog scum, come to the top, I had a bad feeling. Sure enough, there are so many evil tricks in this dog
Li Yuanqing smiles, hands Chen Zhong a cigar, and then throws the cigar box to Duan Xiliang, asking him to give it to his brothers, “big brother. Let’s not scare ourselves. These dog Tartars, except for the cavalry which is superior to us at this time, have been completely controlled by us. However, it is impossible for Anshan castle to do without Huangtaiji. Liaoyang is the next 50 or 60 li away. Relax. We have so many brothers. Let’s sum it up. ”
“HMM…
of course, Chen Zhong understood Li Yuanqing’s meaning and nodded his head.
Soon, a group of generals were puffing in the mud shed of the observation platform, deliberating carefully.
Throughout the ages, in the army, no matter general or soldier, more or less, there will be some habits or hobbies.
Sailors are also ocean going all the year round.
This is because, once a single life lasts, people need something to vent, or to divert their attention.
It’s like the first sentence of the declaration of human rights: “private property is sacred and inviolable.”
It’s human instinct.
Li Yuanqing did not ban smoking or drinking in the army, but always guided and controlled it.
I’m afraid it’s unimaginable to put it on certain occasions.
However, outside Anshan castle, where the outdoor temperature is expected to reach – 17.8 or 20 degrees, and on the high watchtower, the cold wind is howling. Without the support of two old friends like tobacco and wine, who can support it?
At this time, Mr. Xu suddenly said, “marshal, Chen Shuai, brothers, do you see that the earth mound is round and high, does it look like Is it like a pipe? Is it difficult, abatai, the dog tartar, wants to burn smoke and use smoke to stop our bulldozing
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Jin Shiqi was very excited and said, “yes, Mr. Xu is right. I want to remember my humble duty. In our hometown, juehua Island, people like to make this kind of pipe in winter in order to keep warm. This thing looks thick on the surface, but in fact, the mouth inside is very small, just for better heat preservation. In the deep winter, add a basket of firewood, the fire pit is very warm all night. However, it seems that these Tartars’ chimneys have not been picked up yet, including the outer ones. ”
Yao Yu also said, “yes. This thing, you just need to connect a mouth outside, or poke a hole directly, and you can directly control the wind direction of the smoke inside. ”
All the generals were experienced in many battles. Most of them were born in Liao Dynasty. They also knew the local conditions and customs of Liao. Soon, they understood the meaning of Jinshi Qi and Yao Yu.
Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong looked at each other, and Chen Zhong spat in a low voice: “Damn it. I said it was not right. It’s really abatai’s dog trick! Yuanqing, if we don’t send a surprise attack tonight, we will end the dog day! ”
Li Yuanqing slowly shook his head: “big brother, since abatai dares to put out this situation, presumably, he has a comprehensive plan. We must not underestimate him. He is highly accomplished in war. I’m afraid it’s hard for us to think about it tonight. ”
Chen Zhong understood what Li Yuanqing meant. What he said just now was just “angry words”. To some extent, it was also to boost the morale of the army.
At this time, he and Li Yuanqing’s red face and white face cooperate, has already penetrated into the bone marrow.
“Yuanqing, abatai put these dogs under the root of the city wall, and our guns couldn’t reach them. It’s really tricky. “Chen Zhong’s brow was rather gloomy.
As for the battlefield smoke, he has already experienced several times. He also knows that if abathai is more ruthless, this battle can be turned into biological and chemical warfare.
This is also an unfavorable reason that the Ming army was difficult to control during the northward March.
In winter, especially in the deep winter, the northerly wind prevails in Liaoning Province.
However, due to the limitation of the mobility of the Ming army, facing the fact that the latter Jin Dynasty was almost the main force of the whole country’s army, it was very difficult for the Ming army to form a encirclement and attack the latter Jin army from the more favorable directions of East, West and North.
Not to mention, at this time, the defense line of the rear Jin army under Anshan fort was almost like a straight line. The Ming army could not pass it at all. It could only go in the front.
The generals were also whispering, but there was no good way for them.
As long as Tartars are good at taking advantage of this innate advantage, the Ming army will easily fall into a passive position.
“Damn it! Sunspot, your brain is alive, and you are a master in this field. Do you have a good way? ” Chen Zhong paced back and forth, remembering each other Xu Heizi and looking at Xu Heizi.
He nodded, but he shook his head again. “Marshal, Chen Shuai, brothers, I don’t know how to say that for a while. It’s not impossible to make a tunnel, but it’s obviously impossible to catch up. Abathai will be in this east Xi’an so close to the hinterland of the city, we can’t fly there. I’m afraid we should give priority to defense and stabilize the formation. ”
At this time, the camp has been equipped with simple gas masks.
However, they can only protect their mouths and noses, but not their eyes. Moreover, they are not equipped with enough equipment. They are only equipped with combat and auxiliary soldiers of Changsheng camp, but not by Chen Zhong’s soldiers.
In fact, the principle of gas mask is very simple. As long as it is mainly made of charcoal and dry seabed mud, the cost is not high.
It’s just that Li Yuanqing didn’t want to be ahead.
The key is that no one knows what abathai is going to play.
Even Mr. Xu didn’t have a good way. Chen Zhongyi gritted his teeth and said, “Yuanqing, if not, let’s go back a few miles. Think of a way to talk about it. ”
Li Yuanqing certainly understands Chen Zhong’s worries.
At this time, although the Ming army seems to have control, it still needs time and opportunity to turn this control into victory.
On the battlefield, it changes rapidly.
Huang Taiji and the main force of the later Jin army have not been damaged. They are not lambs to be kneaded by others.
Once they get the chance, no one dares to bear the consequences
Li Yuanqing shook his head slowly: “elder brother, we can’t retreat. Once we step back and try to push forward, it will be difficult. Don’t worry. It was just at the beginning of Haishi. If we did not push the earth, they would not be rash. We still have time. ”
All the generals understood the meaning of Li Yuanqing, and their impatience gradually eased.
At this time, Li Sansheng said: “marshal, Chen Shuai, brothers, can we, can we, can we build a wall along the gully ahead? Raise the wall, block the smoke, and let the Tartars eat their own fruit? ”
“Well?”
Chen Zhong’s eyes brightened for a moment, but he laughed and shook his head. “Sansheng, what you think is good. But how high does the wall have to be piled up to hold back the smoke? What’s more, we don’t know how much manpower and material resources are needed to build these walls, and dog Tartars can’t make us so easy. ”
“Hey, hey.”
Li Sansheng said with a smile, “Chen Shuai, I’m just a hot brain. See if the brothers can come up with something better. ”
Chen Zhong couldn’t help laughing bitterly: “you boy, I’m so happy.”
At this time, Li Yuanqing said with a smile: “although Sansheng is a local method, it is not a road. Brothers, please think about it. Even if we want to bear the smoke attack of dog Tartars, we can’t make them comfortable
At this time, Jin Shiqi said, “uncle, marshal Chen, you generals, you have a humble position There’s a thought that doesn’t work. ”
Chen Zhong said, “Xiao Jin, if you have any ideas, please tell me. When the Tartars are broken, I will choose some good ladies for you. ”
“Thank you, Chen Shuai.”
At this time, Jin Shiqi also adapted to the rhythm of the conversation and relaxed a little. He said quickly, “uncle, marshal Chen, generals, although this pipe is easy to use, it also has a problem. That is, it is easy to grow ash in the pipe, and it is easy to block the pipe. Even if it’s a straight tube, the common people’s mouth is small, it’s easy to explode! These Tartars only took an hour or two to pile up these pipes. I’m afraid they are not very strong
“I don’t think we need to worry too much. The soil can be pushed along both sides of the gully. If they put the chimney on both sides, it’s not too late for us to try again. ”
Jin Shiqi’s words made the generals talk again.
Yao Yu’s face was almost red. He wanted to say something, but he didn’t dare to say it.
It’s like trying to answer the teacher’s question, but can’t summon up the courage to show off.
Li Yuanqing happened to see Yao Yu’s expression and said with a smile, “boy, what’s your plan? Just talk about it. Can Ben beat your board”Ah?”
Yao Yu also responded for a moment. He said respectfully: “uncle, I think of my humble position. I think we can use fire to attack…”
Yao Yu was really a little too nervous. He stammered and couldn’t understand.
“Fire attack?”
Li Yuanqing frowned slightly, “Xiaoyu, don’t be nervous. Talk about your thinking. I won’t blame you, uncle
Yao Yu said, “uncle, that’s it, that’s it…”
Yao Yu felt that he couldn’t understand, so he squatted down and pulled some sticks from the wood of the shed and put them on the ground.
The generals made way for him.
Soon, Yao Yu set up a somewhat awkward image of the stove with a small stick, and said, “uncle, we, we can also create some such stoves. If dog Tartars smoke, we’ll light the fire. If the fire burns, even if it is a northerly wind and the smoke of Tartars blows over, the smoke will float high. ”
“Well?”
Others do not understand Yao Yu’s meaning, but Li Yuanqing has accurately caught the core.
This is the original ecological range hood!
