Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 62

Zhuoluo died, and Ild finally escaped under the desperate protection of a group of Baoyi and Eight Banners officers and soldiers.

Defeated by the Ming army, the Eight Banners troops stationed in Yunnan suffered heavy casualties, especially the cavalry regiment of the Ming army played a significant role in the follow-up pursuit.In the end, Yide fled with only two or three hundred Qing troops, and more than 2000 Eight Banners soldiers were killed.

Hou Xiaoqun implemented Bai Mingxiu's policy very well, and the dead Tartars are good Tartars.Even if a small number of Tartars chose to surrender, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Restoration Army would actually stick bayonets into their chests.

Hou Xiaoqun himself came from another plane, and he didn't have much gratitude for Bai Mingxiu's persistence in killing the Tartars. It's just that His Highness the Crown Prince gave such an order, and he will execute it like this.

"Two thousand eight hundred and forty ones, probably some of the Eight Banners of the Han Army and the Eight Banners of Mongolia." Xiao Zhen, political commissar of the regiment, watched the soldiers begin to carry various corpses very calmly.

Hou Xiaoqun said: "If you cast a net again, you may be able to collect [-] heads."

Xiao Zhen curled his lips, and said to his partner: "Do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder?"

Hou Xiaoqun said with a smile: "Slightly, the main reason is that His Royal Highness the crown prince will set up a first-level stele, and the victorious commander can engrave his name on the stele. Don't you think there is a sentence like 'Hou Xiaoqun slaughtered three thousand Tartars' on it?" , Does it sound very emotional?"

Xiao Zhendao: "We are all employed. This world is not our eternal destination. After the employment period expires, we still have to leave, return to our own world, and reunite with our families."

Hou Xiaoqun looked at Xiao Zhen, couldn't help but smiled bitterly, and said, "Are you really sure that we mercenaries have an original world? We came to this world without memory, only with the ability to be set, and to obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince. , I have no idea about our birth, growth, and love. I tend to believe that we may have been created when His Royal Highness hired us."

Xiao Zhen frowned: "Why, do you suspect that you are not human?"

Hou Xiaoqun laughed: "That's not true. I found a woman a few days ago and confirmed that it should be fine. If my woman is pregnant, then at least I have left traces in this world, just like the monument with me same name."

Xiao Zhen was still very cold and did not speak.

Seeing his silence, Hou Xiaoqun said again: "If our employment period is really only the time limit of our existence, then at least we can do more things during this time. Ha, I really envy those guys who are permanently employed. .”

Xiao Zhen looked at him with burning eyes, and said: "You don't know, you don't know whether we have our own original world, so it's better to believe it. Such emotions will not help our mercenary career, but will Make you hesitate."

Hou Xiaoqun smiled lightly, stood up, and said to a few soldiers in the distance: "Okay, let's get started, cut off these heads for me, dig a big hole for me to bury, and wait for them The King of Jin hired a craftsman to set up a monument."

The news that the Ming army led by Hou Xiaoqun defeated the Qing army stationed at the Eight Banners quickly spread back to Li Dingguo outside Kunming.Li Dingguo has been besieging Kunming for more than ten days. During this time, he was in charge of the counterattack plan for the entire Yunnan. On the other hand, he also let artillery bombard him from time to time, which made the people in Kunming panic and morale low.

These days Wu Sangui didn't even dare to go to the city to check. The Ming army's bombardment would come at some point, and Wu Sangui had lost several of the officers guarding the city these days.

"Continuing like this is not an option." Wu Sangui was full of gloom. Although the Ming army did not have any decent offensive, they had already completely cut off Kunming from the outside world. Wu Sangui had no way of knowing whether all of Yunnan had fallen under Li Dingguo's control. hand, or the reinforcements that the imperial court has sent.

His always resourceful son-in-law Xia Guoxiang also had no idea at this time, as long as the Qing army went out of the city to fight, they would be wiped out by the Ming army.These days, the generals under Wu Sangui have also gradually seen some new ways. The number of ways the Ming army fought is completely different from before.Even these generals who fought many battles with Li Dingguo could not see any trace of Li Dingguo's past in the battles of the Ming army.

The musket phalanx of the Ming army was the thing that the generals of the Qing army pondered the most. Although the Qing army had never played with three-stage shooting, it seemed that the Ming army's method could better exert the effect of muskets. Even with the cooperation of artillery and cavalry, the tactics of the Ming army on the entire battlefield were very flexible, and they could easily deal with the attacks of the Qing army at various levels.

Wu Sangui said: "After this battle, we must find a firecracker craftsman, or tell the court that we build more firecrackers, imitating the method of the Lighting Army, and training the musket formation. The firearms of the Ming army are sharp, and we must obtain a few in the next battle. One of their weapons, to imitate. Li Dingguo should have a master behind him, such a good use of firearms, probably must be a Westerner or a red-haired fan."

Xia Guoxiang said: "If there are foreigners teaching behind the Ming army, then our army should also follow suit. The Portuguese in Haojing, as well as the Dutch in Taiwan Island, have activities in the southeast coastal provinces. Especially the Dutch seem to have a similar relationship with Zheng Zheng. If we form an alliance with the Dutch and obtain their weapons and tactics, our army will definitely be able to reach another level and defeat the Ming army.”

At this time, many Chinese people have already realized the advancement of the West in some fields. For example, weapons such as the Hongyi cannon and the Fran cannon were actually imported from the West. The Chinese may have used firearms in the During the war, and during the Mongolian conquest, firearms were introduced to the West, but since the Westerners started to play with firearms, China's firearms manufacturing has basically been left behind by the Europeans.

When Wu Sangui and Xia Guoxiang were discussing things, suddenly the sound of gunfire rumbled, and Wu Sangui's expression became even worse.

"Has today's shelling started? It's a bit early." Wu Sangui had almost gotten used to the daily "greetings" from the Ming army.

However, a huge boom and shock spread throughout the city, Wu Sangui's eyelids twitched, and then he heard soldiers crying in the distance.

"The city is falling! The city is falling!"

Wu Sangui swayed and was about to fall. At this time, the old thief was quite decisive. He gritted his teeth and said, "Prepare the horse, let's go out of the city to break through!"

The city collapsed, and Wu Sangui knew that with his 2 horses, he couldn't stop the menacing Ming army, so he wanted to live, so he had to run away!

　I saw that some people in the comment area are already discussing the problem that the golden finger is so big that it can fight against aliens. I would like to ask if there is anyone who has written all the way from history to the interstellar era to fight aliens?If not, why don't we write a book?
