"It's coming, it's coming. We only sent 200 people just now, and they were able to kill the city. It seems that Yulin will change hands in a few days." Lin Lue said happily after watching the warriors of his tribe kill directly to the city.
"Not bad, not bad," Gugu agreed.
"But I always feel like there's something wrong with me?"
"There is nothing to worry about. If the Yulin General Soldier really had enough troops, they would not have sent only 500 people to attack the camp that night."
"I think it's almost done. Let's have two thousand-man teams try to attack the north gate this afternoon."
"Okay, you, each of my two tribes will send out a thousand-man team. If we can reach the city wall, we will go directly to Yulin. If not, we will wait."
...
"Woo, woo, woo." As the horns of the Mongolian army sounded, two thousand-man troops directly carried simple siege ladders, formed a dispersed formation, and charged towards the north wall of Yulin.
"Boom, boom, boom" the Franchise on the city wall roared, and a large number of projectiles hit the Mongols directly.
For a time, the attacking Mongolian troops suffered heavy losses.
Although the Franchise machine equipped on Yulin City has a range of less than 2 miles, the power of the shotgun is also average.
But for the poor Mongolians who couldn't even equip themselves with armor, the lethality was already great enough.
Although the dispersed formation greatly reduced the lethality of the artillery, it could not withstand the crazy roar of the Ming army. In just one stick of incense, all the blunderbuss equipped with the Flang machine on the Yulin Dongcheng gun were shot away.
The powerful fire counterattack directly hit the two attacking Mongolian Thousands. The two tribes, which had not fought a tough battle with Akito for many years, had never seen such ferocious firepower.
Seeing the companions being torn apart around him, he couldn't care less about military discipline, so he dropped his weapons and ran back like crazy.
"Asshole, the Ming army is so cunning. How dare you kill all the guns at once."
Although they had not attacked the heavily guarded cities of the Ming Dynasty for a long time, Lin Lue and Gugu still knew some battlefield common sense.
Under normal circumstances, unless it is a field battle, it is impossible for the Ming army to shoot out all the guns at once.
Especially a siege like this. In order to maintain the continuity of artillery fire, the Ming army usually only bombarded places where the crowds were concentrated.
You must know that the Ming Dynasty was famous for its instigation of the army. Even the military pay could not be fully guaranteed for the army, let alone other aspects.
Which of those ordinary cannons and generals should not be regarded as treasures? How could you be willing to shoot so quickly?
However, the current Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is Zhu Youjian. He is well aware of the shortcomings of the imperial army and has spent a lot of effort to restore the imperial army's combat effectiveness.
Qiming Chamber of Commerce's many years of savings were almost completely spent by Zhu Youjian.
Although the military salary owed before has not been completely settled, the frontier troops of the Ming Dynasty's army now receive one and a half months' salary almost every month. (I owed too much before, so I could only pay it in installments)
Food is also open for eating.
Equipment has also been replaced.
Coupled with the devolution of military fields into the hands of military households, it is not a problem for the current frontier troops to defeat three soldiers instead of ten in the past.
Zhu Dingguo controls the Ministry of Industry, and the biochemical soldiers control the Nine Sides.
Zhu Youjian continued to deliver gunpowder and other supplies to Jiubian.
As one of the important towns on the Nine Borders, the gunpowder stored in Yulin was enough for all soldiers to fight for three months.
In order to reduce our own losses, and to ensure that there was no shortage of gunpowder, Yulin General Soldier No. 66 naturally opened fire.
However, in the eyes of Lin Lue and Gu Gu, this approach means that Yulin's defense is really empty.
As soon as the two of them worked together, they decided to launch a general attack tomorrow.
Yulin garrison.
No. 66 is gathering a group of staff to discuss how to completely eliminate this group of invaders.
The General Staff is an organization ordered by Zhu Dingguo to be implemented on a trial basis in Jiubian.
After all, the general soldiers on the 9 sides are now ordinary biochemical soldiers. There is no doubt about their individual combat capabilities, but they are a bit stretched to command the battle.
Although the generals of the countries surrounding the Ming Dynasty were also scum.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
In order to avoid major losses, Zhu Dingguo directly ordered the formation of respective staff departments.
The members of the staff, in addition to biochemical soldiers, are mainly those Hara Senhu with combat experience.
Such a composition can avoid major strategic mistakes. Secondly, it can strengthen the court's control over the lower-level soldiers.
After learning about the Mongolian invasion plan of Yulin, in order to prevent anyone from collaborating with the enemy, the news was leaked. In addition to the positions of biochemical soldiers, the rest of the staff, food, drink, and toilets were all in the garrison.
It can be said that the Mongolian army outside the city had no idea about Yulin's battle plan this time. I don’t even know the defense situation of Yulin.
Yulin sent 20,000 elite troops out of the city, but except for 10,000 cavalry who went out to join Sun Chuanting's troops, the remaining 10,000 infantry quietly returned.
It is true that Yulin has sufficient supplies, and the empty defense is just a means to attract Mongolian attacks.
As one of the nine important towns on the border and the gateway to Shaanxi, Zhu Youjian would not leave Yulin's defense empty even if he was really short of troops.
Mongolia wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, so why didn't Zhu Youjian hope to cripple the opponent with a slap in the Great Wall? Is the other side of the province making trouble when they are fighting against the Jiannu?
So the fragrant bait of Yulin was thrown out.
The results did not come out as Zhu Dingguo expected, and the Mongols who had been cut off from the deal couldn't wait to bite this "bait" after hearing that Yulin's main force went to support Liaodong.
At this moment, the 10,000 cavalrymen driven out from Yulin had already joined forces with the troops led by Sun Chuanting.
20,000 elite cavalry, led by Sun Chuanting, headed straight for the grassland
In the past, the Mongolian Tatars entered the pass to hunt for autumn valleys. Under normal circumstances, officers and soldiers from various places were dispatched to fight back the Mongolian Tatars.
Then the so-called retaliation against Mongolia will be carried out based on the situation.
However, the so-called revenge has been mostly just a formality in recent years, and the actual number of Mongols killed was less than one-tenth of the Ming people who suffered.
Especially in recent years, under the so-called overall situation of those gentlemen, Ming Dynasty has not retaliated against Mongolia for a long time.
Regarding this, the officers and soldiers in Shaanxi and other places have already been filled with anger.
In the past, there was not enough money and food, and no one had enough to eat. There was nothing we could do against the Mongols.
Although we don’t say that we eat and drink every day, we are still guaranteed three meals a day.
Coupled with the armor and weapons newly issued by the imperial court, everyone was full of confidence.
The Hetao Plain is the territory of the Ming Dynasty. However, since the Tumubao Incident, the Ming Dynasty's strength has been damaged, so it had to carry out strategic contraction and give up the Hetao Plain.
The current Hetao Plain is actually the territory of the Tumut Plain. However, in order to unite the Ordos tribes to go to the Ming Dynasty to attack Qiugu, the leader of the Tumut tribe, Gugu, allowed some Ordos tribes to enter the Hetao Plain.
Perhaps because of the drought problem and the Mongols' confidence in the coalition forces, these tribes were not far from the Great Wall.
Under the leadership of Jin Yiwei, they discovered a small Mongolian tribe before going far.
"Send the order, no prisoners will be taken in this battle."
Sun Chuanting's voice was not loud, but it was indeed full of murderous intent.
