Chapter 977
Let the enemy gather first, and then do it all at once.This very confident way of fighting is the characteristic of Emperor Chongzhen.Hong Chengchou was no stranger to this.

Therefore, he didn't care.Because he knew that since the emperor said so, it was absolutely certain.

However, when Hong Chengchou found out that the accompanying army who came and went from the military ranks was estimated to be only about 2 horses, and most of them were infantry, he was still a little dumbfounded.

That's right, in this decisive battle, there are also troops on the Mingwei Castle side and the Persian side, and the troops of the vassal states can also make up the number.However, this time the enemy they are facing is the coalition forces across Europe.Their strength is actually much stronger than the major vassal states.

Even the former Ming Dynasty, such as Jianlu was still at that time, if European countries could reach Daming directly regardless of distance, it would be really hard for even Ming Dynasty to resist.

The emperor brought so few troops. Isn't it a bit overwhelming?
For the first time in so many years, Hong Chengchou had doubts about this.

Having dealt with Emperor Chongzhen for so many years, he knew that the emperor would not be punished for his words.Therefore, he ignored the greetings with Sun Chuanting, and hurriedly played to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the European countries have two months to assemble. Presumably they will gather all the troops they can to Warsaw to fight us. European countries The muskets and artillery are not to be underestimated, and..."

After hesitating for a while, he immediately played again: "During the Battle of Lisbon two months ago, European countries have already deciphered the reason why our Daming artillery and guns have a long range and high accuracy. According to reports, they are all trying their best to transform their of artillery and muskets. Your Majesty, the strength of the combined armies of all European countries must not be underestimated!"

In fact, he had some objections. If the Lisbon naval battle had not been fought first, the Ming army would have maintained its advantage in artillery and gunfire, and would have had a great advantage in the decisive battle with the army.However, now it is gone!
After hearing so much from him, Emperor Chongzhen and Sun Chuanting looked at each other with worried faces, and couldn't help but smile.Then, the smile on Emperor Chongzhen's face did not change, and he said to Hong Chengchou: "Don't worry, Hong Qing, those guns will be eliminated. If they want to learn, they should learn. I did it on purpose to make them think they can Catch up with our army's superiority in equipment."

With the 400 years of knowledge brought about by time travel, and the manpower and material resources of a huge empire, plus so many years of development, if the European natives cannot be crushed in terms of weapons and equipment, the emperor will be in vain.

For this decisive battle, it was precisely because of the rapid technological development of Ming Dynasty that two months' notice was given in advance to allow European countries to gather.No matter what, the first appearance of a new weapon must be done in the most shocking way!

At this time, Hong Chengchou couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard it, and asked quickly: "But what more powerful firearm has been invented by the Bingzhan Bureau?"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled after hearing this and said: "The main credit this time is due to the Taiping couple. The invention of the military battle bureau is just a matter of course."

Having said that, he looked back at the heavily guarded train station, looked at the soldiers getting off the train, then turned back and said to Hong Chengchou: "This is also the reason why I want you to martial law. New weapons are absolutely crushing Overwhelm the current armaments of European countries. The Battle of Warsaw was a decisive battle for them. But for me, and for the Ming soldiers, it was just a massacre!"

"..." Hearing this, Hong Chengchou was a little dumbfounded.What on earth did Princess Taiping and his wife invent that allowed the Ming army to massacre the coalition forces from various European countries, ignoring their numerical advantage?

If someone else said that, honestly, he would definitely question the validity of it.Because he couldn't imagine what it was that could have the advantage of being crushed.

However, Emperor Chongzhen said confidently that of course he would not question it, but deep down in his heart, he was still very curious.

Sun Chuanting next to him spoke at this time, and said with a smile: "In fact, these are all thanks to His Majesty, and it is His Majesty's new learning that has exerted great power. Even this new firearm is directly instructed by His Majesty. Produce enough guns and cannons in the shortest possible time."

All aspects of the current changes in Ming Dynasty are all related to Emperor Chongzhen.Everyone is already used to this.

The people in the capital have heard about the power of the new firearms.And with Sun Chuanting's position, he has seen it with his own eyes.Therefore, when saying these words, it was full of deep admiration.

I really don't know how there are so many useful things in the emperor's mind, and it's so powerful!The emperor's new learning is obviously complementary to Confucianism, and since then, Daming has no shortcomings.

The more Hong Chengchou listened, the more curious he became.Even Sun Chuanting said so, what does the new weapon look like?
With that in mind, he looked curiously at the rear compartment of the train.

At this time, almost all the soldiers of the Ming army got off the train and were sorting out their armaments on both sides of the train.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile when he saw him like this.Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I said to Hong Chengchou: "Let's go and have a look."

After saying that, he turned around and walked over.

Hong Chengchou was overjoyed and quickly followed.

But after getting closer, he was suddenly a little dumbfounded again.

I saw these soldiers of the Ming army who got off the train, almost none of them were young, all of them were middle-aged, and even a small number of them had white sideburns.

But these soldiers have one thing in common, that is, their chests are covered with medals.Needless to say, they are all meritorious men who have won medals and rewards in previous wars since the Ming Dynasty's ZTE.

The first time, Hong Chengchou understood.These soldiers should have the same meaning as Sun Chuanting's coming to Europe.It is a reward from the emperor to the meritorious soldiers of Ming Dynasty, allowing them to witness the biggest and last battle!
Even the soldiers are like this. How confident is the emperor that he would act like this?In other words, how powerful is this new weapon to make the emperor act so unscrupulously?

Seeing the emperor coming, the soldiers of the Ming army saluted one after another.

In this way, the medals on their chests are even more eye-catching.Each medal represents a war.The more medals you have, the greater your contribution to the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Chongzhen did not return the salute, but Sun Chuanting and others all wanted to return the military salute.

Behind Daming ZTE, there is their blood and sweat!
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen had already stood up, pointed at the ground and said: "Have you seen Hong Qing? You haven't seen this musket before. I call him a heavy-duty continuous-fire musket, or a heavy machine gun for short. It shoots continuously with energy, and there is no need to fire again." What kind of three-stage style? The shooting range is far higher than the muskets you know..."

Upon hearing the introduction, Hong Chengchou's eyes suddenly widened.Just like a curious baby seeing a novel toy, it looks incredulous and wants to pounce on it and think about it.

There is no longer a need for three-stage firepower to form firepower, and the energy can be fired continuously. More importantly, according to the emperor's wishes, the range of fire is far beyond his imagination.Such a musket is really amazing!

"No wonder Your Majesty has such high confidence!" Hong Chengchou resisted the urge to touch it, and said with emotion.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen smiled faintly after hearing this and said: "Actually, I estimate that this kind of heavy machine gun will not be used. The Battle of Warsaw will be remembered by the world!"

Hong Chengchou was shocked when he heard that, and quickly looked in the direction pointed by Emperor Chongzhen, but it was a series of cannons.

It is said to be a cannon because it is somewhat similar to the Hongyi Cannon.However, if you really want to look at it seriously, it is completely different.

This must be a new type of cannon, but will this kind of cannon really be very powerful and become the most eye-catching presence in the Battle of Warsaw?
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen had already walked over, patted the smooth barrel, and said with emotion: "The cannon is the god of war! In the past, this may have been an exaggeration, but since then, for a long time in the future , but it is absolutely indisputable!"

Hong Chengchou, who came with him, was very surprised by saying that the cannon is the god of war, and quickly asked, "Your Majesty, how powerful is this cannon?"

Just when he was talking about this, he suddenly noticed something, and asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, is this a breech-loading artillery?"

There is a big difference between front-mounted and rear-mounted guns.Based on Hong Chengchou's experience, he can certainly tell the difference at once.

Daming has breech-loading artillery, that is, the Francophone cannon.Molecular mother guns, each mother gun is equipped with seven or eight child guns.Among them, the sub-gun can be loaded with ammunition in advance, embedded in the mother gun for firing.

The advantage is that the rate of fire is fast, but the disadvantage is actually obvious, that is, the range is not as good as that of the front-mounted gun, and the power is limited.It can only be used to deal with enemies who are approaching.

After Hong Chengchou asked the question, he curiously looked for the cannon's sub-gun but didn't find it.

At this moment, Emperor Chongzhen had already turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "It's a breech-loaded artillery, but it's different from the breech-loading artillery that you know. This kind of artillery can really destroy dozens of miles with one shot!" "

In the past, the so-called one-shot corruption for dozens of miles was really just a joke, exaggerated and boundless.Anyone who knows a little bit about artillery knows that this is impossible.

However, Emperor Chongzhen said at this time that this kind of artillery was really corrupted for dozens of miles, which once again surprised Hong Chengchou.I always feel like it's a little unbelievable.

In fact, the inventions of yellow gunpowder and thunderbolt are really epoch-making.For those who don't know, of course it will be unbelievable.

This time, Emperor Chongzhen saw Hong Chengchou's expression, but smiled and said: "The machine gun, and the rifle, you can find a chance to show Qing first. As for the artillery, just wait for the Warsaw battle!"
