Lord of Ming Dynasty

Behind them are Li Dingguo's own [-] archers, and on both sides are recruited civilians and young spearmen. Each of them holds a bamboo from the southern mountains. Don't underestimate this kind of bamboo, which is five meters long. , Dealing with the enemy's cavalry is definitely okay, and dealing with the enemy's chaotic army is absolutely powerful, poking a blood hole.

They don't have any armor on them, they just wear a set of suit vests issued by Li Dingguo with Li characters embroidered on the back and front. Holding such a low-quality weapon is obviously cannon fodder for coming to the battlefield to gain experience.

Fighting in this era is like this. Most of them are cannon fodder, and the elite are family members and generals. There are [-] elite troops. This is the most troops Li Dingguo can produce after his recovery.

All his resources were spent building that firearms unit, and that was his hope.

In order to purchase the weapons and equipment of this army, in order to make them into an army, he almost emptied all his savings over the years. At the same time, he sold several large minerals in Yunnan Prefecture, thousands of acres of land, and promised the Huaxia Army The garrison here, although there are only two thousand Huaxia troops in the area, is also a matter of face. Whose territory is for others, and other countries' troops are stationed on their own territory at will.

Those cannon fodder troops in front were used to hold back the enemy. The enemy had obviously been stationed here for one night, so they were waiting for work. However, his own scouts did not find that the enemy had such a large number of troops here, so Li Dingguo sent those newly surrendered troops. The betrayed subordinates took their deployment to charge and test the enemy.

This test came out. There were artillery behind the enemy barracks, and there were artillery on various hilltops. In the woods behind, he could vaguely see the cavalry of the brigade. Looking from a distance, he saw a familiar man Banner, Feng Shuangli's banner, old friend.

Feng Shuangli and him have a lot of grievances and grievances. They were both generals of Daxi before, and he wanted to be more favored by Zhang Xianzhong and accepted as his adopted son. Feng Shuangli, as a veteran with Zhang Xianzhong, was an old fox. Selling to the Qing army, he escaped first, and let the Qing army defeat his 10,000+ army. In the end, he and Sun Kewang turned against each other and he also had a share of the credit. But because everyone is General Daxi, he forgave him, and later he defected After leaving the Nanming Kingdom, the relationship between the two has improved. They are all for the restoration of the Han people and the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

5 Chapter Forty

More and more soldiers were fleeing, and with a deep horn sound, the enemy poured out nearly ten thousand soldiers from the valley ahead.

It is still the red battle robe and red tasseled helmet of the Ming Dynasty. This is the regular army of the strong Ming army, with swords, guns, halberds, bows and horns, chariots and horses, everything is available. It is very familiar with the battle formation of the Ming army. He used to follow Zhang Xianzhong on the southern expedition In the Northern War, I have seen more of the battle formations of the Ming army, soldiers and horses. When I encountered this kind of soldiers and horses before, they had no choice but to escape. The troops of ten thousand people are enough to wash away the cannon fodder of the people they engulfed. After falling, their old battalion's poorly equipped troops could not resist this kind of regular army soldiers and horses of the Ming army.

Now, he dares to say that with twice as many soldiers and horses as the Ming army, he can also win, just relying on the [-] elite troops in his hands, the [-] directly subordinate troops armed to the teeth, all equipped with armor, and weapons With a cold light shining, it was no longer the bandit army with curled blades, rusty blades, broken bow horns, and split spears.

Three cannon shots sounded, he turned his head, and more Ming troops poured out between the two mountain roads in front, but these Ming troops were obviously some miscellaneous troops with incomplete weapons, and many of them held sticks, knives and forks, and the number of them was nearly [-]. It seems that they are trying to intercept the rout soldiers who were defeated by the enemy's artillery and fled to both sides.

At this time, the two sides had already started fighting, with the sound of weapons clashing, screams, and cries, the two sides engaged in hysterical, red-eyed hand-to-hand combat.

Li Dingguo waved the command flag, and the other two troops rushed out, one was the surrendered Ming army, and the other was the Qing army who took refuge. The two troops rushed to one side to help the fleeing soldiers. , strangled together with the enemy.

Seeing that the frontal battlefield was empty, the enemy's Ten Thousand Ming Army troops slowly approached their side in a neat formation.

Li Dingguo thought for a while, turned his head, and said to the soldiers: "Let the chieftain's troops go up, and let the miscellaneous soldiers go up first, let them fight and consume the enemy, and let 1 young and strong spearmen line up behind them, but if you want Get out of the way of the side corners of the wings."

The personal soldiers waved the command flag, and at the same time, the scout cavalry who passed the order immediately ran out with a flag to pass the order to the opposing general. These chieftain soldiers could not understand the flag and could not be compared with Li Dingguo's long-trained elite soldiers.

Seeing the chieftain's army moving, they rushed towards the Ming army in a swarm. Under the command of Li Dingguo's generals, the young and strong troops behind them slowly lined up behind them and approached the enemy.

Li Dingguo glanced at the forest in the distance, thinking in his heart, when Feng Shuangli fell to the ground, when will he dispatch his cavalry?

He shouted to the soldiers around him: "Send out the scout cavalry to scout the movement within ten miles of the battlefield, especially the enemy's flanks and our rear, and at the same time send an order to Du Ge to bring the troops over as soon as possible, and if he doesn't come again, The damned artillery fire is going to wipe out my army."

Of course, it is impossible for a large army to walk together. A hundred thousand troops can't move around in a radius of more than ten miles. If they walk head to tail, they have to walk more than ten kilometers. There must be a gap between the troops, and Li Dingguo's troops are generally divided into two parts, one part is led by him, which is the troops he originally led, and the other part is the firearms troops led by Du Ge, who follow behind him. The target is Wuzhou Mansion in Guangxi Prefecture, and Wuzhou Mansion is Feng Shuangli's lair, of course Feng Shuangli has to defend it.

The other Ming troops didn't agree, and the Ming army knew about such a huge force rushing forward, so troops from various places gathered together, and the vanguard led by Feng Shuangli met Li Dingguo's vanguard.

The two sides first fought each other with scout cavalry, covering the battlefield, and then approached each other. Finally, after three days of facing each other, they met together. Despite the scout troop's investigation, the two sides didn't know exactly how many troops the other party had. Li Dingguo was very anxious.

If the enemy at the head cannot be defeated or wiped out as soon as possible, then the more enemies gather, the greater his resistance will be. Although this situation has been considered, he still does not want too many enemies to gather, he wants one by one Annihilate, and then take Wuzhou Mansion, giving Nanming Kingdom a disarm. Wuzhou Mansion divides Nanming Kingdom's Guangdong and Guangxi prefectures, which is a huge threat to Nanming's main territory today.

Facing the enemy's artillery, of course Li Dingguo had to fight back. His troops also had artillery and matchlock guns, all of which were controlled by his direct troops.

These were originally sold to them by the Huaxia Army, as well as the artillery captured by the Qing army that Nanming Kingdom gave them when Nanming Kingdom attacked Kong Youde together.

All that could be carried was brought here, but there were more than 30 artillery pieces. Soon these artillery pieces were erected and bombarded the enemy artillery pieces. Obviously, their training was better than that of Nanming Kingdom. A cannon on a mountaintop in Nanming Kingdom was knocked over, and the smoke was lingering there, killing and wounding everywhere, and then exploded violently, obviously hitting the enemy's powder keg, and the powder keg exploded.

But obviously the enemy arrived here earlier than them, and the layout is good. Feng Shuangli, who has been fighting for many years on the various hills, is very ingenious and useful in the layout. The position was concentrated fire by the enemy's artillery on several hills and the frontal artillery, blowing up three or four artillery pieces, causing hundreds of casualties.

On the frontal battlefield, the chieftain army obviously couldn't fight against the regular Ming army. The chieftain army was already in chaos. Although it did some damage to the enemy, it didn't look like much damage. They turned around and fled, or fled to both sides. The enemy rushed from both sides. , made dumplings for the toast army.

There was a team of superintendents behind them, 1 spearmen. Facing the dense spear team, obviously no one thought that they could rush through, so they ran to both sides, increasing the pressure of the enemy's outflanking troops on both sides, and the enemy's outflanking The troops also collapsed, and both sides fled together.

Seeing the young and strong spear troops rushing towards the front of the enemy, Li Dingguo smiled and glanced at the guards. The guards raised their horns and blew. Suddenly, dozens of elephants rushed out from the forest on both sides. The elephants were The chieftain soldiers drove those who were driving, followed by one or two thousand chieftain soldiers.

Although this group of chieftain soldiers didn't have any formation, they looked extremely fierce. Some of them rode wild boars or wolves instead of horses, which scared the cavalry of the Ming army into chaos. The horses neighed, but they didn't dare Move, or run indiscriminately, messing up one's position.

Like a bulldozer, the elephant swung its two-meter-long nose, rushed over, trampled, and swept its nose. The Ming army flew up like fallen leaves after autumn, and was thrown away like dolls and rags. On both sides, they were hacked to death with axes, spears, and pony horses by the chieftain warriors who rushed over from behind. Their armor was not bad, but facing such a strange opponent, their armor could not Let them avoid being trampled into serious injuries and death.

Li Dingguo was very satisfied with the effect of this surprise soldier, and the enemy's regular army retreated like a tide.

He hastily dispatched two thousand cavalrymen of his own to gather up those routs of his own, and at the same time let the young and strong spearmen advance forward.

In the eyes of the war eagle flying in the sky, Zhang Qiang saw what a war elephant is, and what a war with war elephants is called, which is a bit like the scene in the movie Lord of the Rings.

Chapter 541 The First Battle, The Enemy Comes First

A war elephant is a powerful weapon, especially when dozens of elephants run over the enemy's formation like dozens of tanks under the driver's driving, even if the battle is full of people's banners, it seems extremely powerful and unshakable , From a distance, it is a sea of ​​people, full of knives and guns, you will die if you hit it, you don't even have the courage to hit it, but facing elephants, these are all rags, dozens of elephants are like rolled up The bulldozer of smoke swept them all into the pit of death.

There was a smile on Li Dingguo's face that he hadn't seen for a long time. Although the two groups of people were beaten by the enemy's artillery and fled in all directions, after they were gathered together, these people were still quite vigorous in fighting against the wind.

The main combatants are still his own elite 1 soldiers, and these [-] young and strong soldiers. He plans to organize those who survived this time into the new army, and gradually form his own elite troops directly under him. .

Of his 2000 elites, not only the one thousand or so of his own king's guards are left, but there are also more than [-] other elites.

Judging from his ideas and the technology that Zhou Porridge Zhou provided to him about China's acquisition, the game world currently does not know why. Weak, otherwise, with the virtual game system machine, you can travel in, or you can enter and exit the game world casually with a small knight ring.

He thought of the game world as a large polyhedral glass hollow fish tank, maybe the fish tank is inside the fish tank, because there are other continents outside the Calradia continent world, he thought it was the outer continent world before, but now it seems that it may be several worlds A polygon nested together, Calradia is like the heartland of these worlds around which they are distributed.

As for the so-called Great God of Heaven, I don’t know where he is. Is he a computer just like the Skynet in the real world, or what is really a nothingness god, looking down on all this, and then can only slightly adjust it? , can't make major changes, but can only slightly affect the world through those bishops.

Maybe he's really weak, so there are holes here and there that he can't fill.

And Zhang Qiang's idea is to obtain a higher status, the emperor, can issue orders to the entire continent, obtain higher abilities, and can close other weak entrances, so that people or power from other continents can no longer affect this place.

So far, apart from restricting the circulation of knight rings, he seems to have no other way to prevent the increase of traversers and players.

There is no power that can control all the entrances to Calradia.

The only place he can control is Bazek. By leveling from time to time, killing dark hunters and dark knights, he can reduce the penetration of dark forces into the mainland. Fortunately, as long as no one sacrifices, the opening of the entrance can only allow A very small number of dark hunters and dark knights entered, and those dark forces either consciously came to the Calradia continent, or wandered to the entrance unintentionally, and then came in.

So far, there have been only two sacrificial activities. They took the initiative to find dark knights and dark hunters to enter the Calradia continent. villagers, prompting Bazek's village chief to retaliate with a sacrificial activity.

The other time was King Jaloger, who was himself a dark lord. Maybe his dark nature was revived, so he used sacrifices and summons to deal with himself.

This is the dark forces, but Zhang Qiang has nothing to do with the undead forces. I heard that it has become a dead place, and the surrounding area of ​​Gomos Village has become a restricted area. No matter which kingdom or force it is, they dare not enter. Which area, fortunately, which place is remote, the undead can't get much human resources, and there is the Earl of Columbia, the demon general who guards the entrance of the undead, so there won't be so many undead entering the continent of Calradia, otherwise, With the reproduction speed of the undead, soon the wars will be frequent, and the Calradia continent with countless dead people will fall.

How to repair those protective shields that have been weakened due to the weakness of the God of Heaven, to prevent more adventurers, or players to use game helmets and game warehouses to enter the Calradia continent smoothly, to reduce troubles for the Calradia continent, how to prevent Other continental forces, through the entrance, invaded the Calradia continent, and how to prevent the ingenuity of the traversers and players from causing trouble to their unification cause, how to unify the entire continent as soon as possible, and how to deal with these forces after unification. It's something Zhang Qiang worries about.

It's a pity that the cardinal is dead, otherwise we can ask him how to do it, he is the spokesperson of God after all.

The purple-clothed bishop, his own level is not enough, the purple-clothed bishop will not appear.

At present he is still the principality, not the king of the kingdom, he has to be the king of the kingdom.

The problem is to become the king of the principality, and with such a high level of legal rule, he also accepted a group siege and defeated them, but he didn't know how to become the king of the kingdom.

Ramos walked into Zhang Qiang's palace, looked at Zhang Qiang, and whispered: "Your Majesty, all your heroes have returned here and are waiting for your summons."

Zhang Qiang touched his face and put all his troubles behind him for the time being. The heroes are back. Now is not the time to think about other issues, but to learn the lesson from the last time. He can't use the heroes separately. Take them with you, they each have their own skills and abilities, and only when united can they have greater strength.
