Lord of Ming Dynasty

Five thousand Qing troops approached the trench tremblingly, and were killed by bows and arrows, killing hundreds of people. The second time, the Qing army sent five thousand Qing troops forward again. This time, the enemy attacked the trench and even jumped into the trench to fight with the Ming army. In the hand-to-hand combat, the two sides lost more than [-] casualties. They had to rest until noon, and fought again in the afternoon. Feng Shuangli sent [-] young men to reinforce the Tunbao defenders, and brought [-] tiger squatting cannons.

This time the Qing army dispatched [-] soldiers, [-] Qing troops, and [-] cavalry to attack from noon to dusk, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

The first trench was in vain. The enemy soldiers surrounded the fort and bombarded it with cannons. The fort fell one after another at night, and only more than 2000 Ming troops fled back.

In this way he lost most of his cannon fodder troops. The next day, the two sides fought again, and the enemy soldiers forced the second trench, which was located three miles outside the city wall.

Feng Shuangli sent [-] young guards and [-] defeated soldiers from yesterday to defend the city. He also sent [-] arquebus gunners and [-] Ming artillery pieces.

After fighting for two days and two nights this time, the Qing army lost 2000 surrendered soldiers, basically exhausting the surrendered troops, and lost 20 soldiers and horses, more than [-] matchlock guns, and more than [-] artillery pieces were damaged.

But Feng Shuangli exhausted his cannon fodder soldiers, and more than 1 young and strong people in the city were lost.

He also lost 50 musketeers, more than 1000 artillery pieces, and more than [-] of his elite soldiers.

The third trench is only one mile away from the city, and it can be supported by cannons purchased from the Huaxia Army at the top of the city and Qianjin cannons from the Ming Army.

But this time Kong Youde came up to bombard directly. A hundred Ming army cannons were deployed, all of which were [-] catties of red cannons. They all hit the top of the city, and the shells fell into the city.

Cannons from both sides exchanged cannons for a whole morning, but no soldiers were used to attack. Kong Youde destroyed 2000 cannons and was blown up ten cannons. More than 1000 artillerymen were killed or injured, while more than 20 soldiers of Nanming State were killed or injured. Many city walls were also crumpled and cracked in many places by the cannonballs, and more than [-] cannons were damaged.

In the afternoon, the fight continued, and both sides added cannons. Kong Youde's added cannons began to bombard the trenches of the third line of defense, fortresses, and horses.

Of course, those soldiers were soldiers from the green battalion of the Qing army who followed Kong Youde, but were not treated well.

The two sides fought from the afternoon until dark, and then Kong Youde attacked from all directions and besieged Wuzhou Mansion.

At the same time, [-] troops were dispatched to trap [-] troops of his new army, and shoot at the new army of the Nanming Army.

At midnight the next day, I had to rest.

This time, the Qing army lost 2000 soldiers and 30 people who filled trenches and rivers. The new army killed and injured more than [-] people. More than [-] cannons were damaged and [-] were damaged. The results were remarkable. The trenches were filled, the trenches were captured, the forts were besieged, and the [-] Nanming troops who had left the city to fight were besieged.

The Nanming army lost more than 60 cannons, more than 2000 people were killed or injured at the top of the city, more than 8000 people were killed or injured at the bottom of the city, about 3000 people fled into the city, and the remaining [-] troops were besieged in trenches and forts.

The forts near the city wall are relatively large, and each fort can garrison 500 troops.

The two sides have a day off, and the war has passed for more than a week.

It's already mid-July.

The whole war has been fought for a month and a half.

Zhang Qiang watched the movement of the Qing army, and there were more and more signs that the Qing army, which was confronting the Huaxia army, had no major movements, except that the Qing army was mobilized once to support the Qing army's Kong Youde department in Guangxi Prefecture.

Su Zhengqing steadily attacked the Guilin Mansion, being cautious, for fear that the enemy would suddenly appear with a few large troops and surround him with less than half of the troops that had returned to aid him.

Mang Gurtai's army had already arrived at Guilin Mansion, which made Su Zhengqing hesitant. Without reinforcements, should he fight or retreat?

30, I currently have only 12 new troops, plus Tong Dawei's [-] Huaxia Army, only [-] troops, if Li Chengdong's troops are added, it is only [-] troops, although there are two cold weapons troops [-], [-] soldiers, [-] troops in total, but he is still not sure that he will win, and the imperial court's urging order has come, asking him to bring troops back to help, Su Zhengqing is really hard to make a decision.

Li Guangdi, a civilian officer in the military supervisor, also went from firmly supporting him to march to hesitation at the end. If Li Guang said to return to the army, he would definitely not hesitate, but since he was about to arrive at Guilin Mansion, returning to the army would be a missed opportunity. Could there be another chance? It is still unknown to fight the Guilin Mansion. The Nanming Kingdom really needs a big victory, even if it takes away the enemy's lair and does not capture the enemy's general.

It is impossible to capture the enemy's general. Kong Youde is attacking Wuzhou Mansion of Nanming Kingdom.

Kong Youxing was still spending time with Li Guangxiong in the trench gate.

Didn't it mean that the Huaxia Army will help you?Why are you in such a hurry, the Huaxia Army also sent troops to rescue, let me finish this battle, at least win a big victory, the army came, except for besieging Liuzhou Mansion, it was basically a punch on the cotton, and nothing was achieved A decent win.

Chapter 431 Nanming Beacon 12 - War Eagle

While Su Zhengqing was hesitating, the battle in Wuzhou Mansion became intense.

The [-] remnants of the defeated generals were captured in three days, and less than [-] remnants retreated into the city. Feng Shuangli was already extremely anxious. He only had [-] direct soldiers in his hands, [-] new soldiers, and [-] remnants were defeated.

The enemy has been attacking Wuzhou Mansion for three days, and the cannons have knocked down three city walls. Although the city wall is tall, the collapsed place is still more than three meters away from the ground. If the enemy wants to attack, they have to use ladders. Sooner or later, he will be defeated and die for the country. Although he is not such a shameless person, he will not think that such a thing as being loyal to the country is impossible, but he is not reconciled.

The [-] new soldiers and the [-] remnants of the defeated generals were sent to defend the city day and night for three days. At this time, they were also very tired. Feng Shuangli had to consider sending his direct troops to the city wall to participate in the defense.

On the other side, Kong Youde was calm and calm at the beginning, but now he is also anxious.

Along the way, he lost about 8000 soldiers and horses, but recruited [-] soldiers and horses. Although this was a cannon fodder force with little combat effectiveness, it wasted in the city for half a month, and his [-] soldiers were also lost. Although these soldiers are not his direct descendants, there are also soldiers of his new army, more than [-] of whom died in battle. It seems that the Huaxia Army's defense method of combining trenches, trenches, horses, and cities is indeed the most advanced in his era. Advanced defense methods.

Now his barracks is full of wounded soldiers. There are 15 people lying down alone, [-] people who are injured and lose their combat effectiveness, and [-] people who are exhausted by the war and have lost their confidence. Fifty-eight thousand people died in the battle, and now only [-] of his [-] army have been consumed. The key is not casualties and consumption, but morale.

The morale of the soldiers is disappearing, and the soldiers are tired of fighting like this.

How to fight this battle?

There was also news from Kong Youxing over there. They were in full swing in the early stage, and they chased Feng Shuangli's general and fled to the trench gate, but they encountered the same difficulties as him in the trench gate.

After fighting for two days, Kong Youxing participated in the battle at the trench gate. After [-] casualties and more than [-] surrendered troops fled, he changed his route and led the army to Zhaoqing Mansion.

On the way, he was defeated by Wang Deren's cavalry brigade. Now he has fled in this direction, and his troops are less than [-] soldiers.

Whether to continue the attack, or retreat back to Guilin Mansion, Kong Youde also had a difficult time.

After Zhang Qiang received a report from an intelligence officer nearby who was inquiring about the situation on the battlefield, he laughed, but his mood was relieved. It seemed that the Qing army in Zhaoqing Mansion did not need to think about it. Su Zhengqing sent over, Su Zhengqing had reinforcements, and Kong Youde sent another soldier to surround the Guilin mansion, Kong Youde jumped out of the siege immediately to protect his lair?

In that case, Nanming Kingdom would turn from the predicament of being passively attacked to the right path of attacking and consuming the strength of the Qing army, which Zhang Qiang hoped for.

At this time, Zhang Qiang received two other messages.

One, Li Dingguo sent troops to the Qing army on the border of Guizhou Prefecture, and at the same time wiped out the Guizhou chieftains who were against him. The whole army sent out [-] troops, leaving only [-] elite soldiers in Yunnan Prefecture for defense. Qing troops urgently dispatched Jierha from Sichuan Prefecture and Huguang Lang's [-] troops went to rescue the Qing army in Guizhou Prefecture, and Wu Sangui also went south from Shaanxi and Gansu to fight Li Dingguo to the death.

The other one is about the battlefield of the Nanming Kingdom. Shang Kexi successfully fled back to Guilin Mansion, and rebelled against the [-] troops reorganized by Kong Youde who were loyal to him before, regained military power, and submitted a memorial to the Qing army court. It is not good news that Jun Rang continued to confer on him as the King of Jingnan and asked him to assist Mangurtai in defending Guilin Mansion.

Zhang Qiang's mood fell into a trough again.

He wished he could crawl over to help Su Zhengqing fight this battle.

"Do you want to know about real-time battles on the battlefield?" the system asked.

"Well," Zhang Qiang's good and bad moods are all indifferent. The system is like a conspirator hiding in a corner to monitor you, and you will be frightened suddenly. This is very detrimental to Zhang Qiang's physical and mental health. Zhang Qiang He was very indignant, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't counter it, he was the best helper for the traverser, and he was also the master whom the traverser needed to serve carefully.

"I think, but you don't get paid for nothing," Zhang Qiang said to the system.

"You don't need to contribute your efforts or money to produce guns. You have already given a lot of help to your self in the world of riding and hacking. He has thousands of matchlock guns and he is already very powerful. The enemy will not be as smart as him. Yes, and you subdued five historical celebrities, the system has not rewarded you yet, this time is a big reward."

"I remember there were four, right?" Zhang Qiang was puzzled.

"Li Guangdi has already been taken back by you. This time he is holding back Su Zhengqing's return to the army to help the Huaxia Army consume the strength of the Qing army. He has already admired you very much. It is the new army that you helped the Nanming Kingdom train in Liuzhou. The government's performance is very good. It took less than a day to break open the enemy's broken shell. He feels that it is your credit, so now he admires it very much, is convinced by you, and volunteers to serve as the internal response of Nanming Kingdom like Jin Sheng It’s not like before, even though it’s an internal response, it’s still facing the Nanming Kingdom in handling affairs.”

This is good news, Zhang Qiang said happily.

"So what rewards will I be given this time? I don't need to be given skills to improve my personal abilities such as riding, running, and shield defense. As the lord of a country, I won't have too many opportunities to fight in person. I am an intelligent The lord of Meiliu, of course, hid behind his back and commanded the soldiers and horses to fight. The last time he was in the trench gate was also an accident. The Nanming army was defeated too quickly, and the enemy ran behind me. It would be bad for me to retreat again. .”

Zhang Qiang inoculates the riding and hacking system.
