The officers and soldiers were surrounded on all sides. Fifteen thousand troops surrounded a mere Mingjiang City. However, there were only about two thousand wolf soldiers in the city, including only five hundred of Huang Gongsheng's direct henchmen. ￥♀eight￥♀eight￥♀read ￥♀book,.2≠◆The rest of the tribe was quite honest at first, but as soon as the imperial army arrived, they were inevitably ready to move.
Huang Gongsheng had become unable to fly without wings, but he refused to sit still and wait for death.
Huang Gongsheng has the courage to fight to the death, but he always feels that he has not reached that point yet, because his father Huang Enlong only has three sons, not even a daughter. Now that the two legitimate sons have been killed, even if the officers and soldiers fight What if we enter Mingjiang City?
Of course, Huang Gongsheng also knew that the officers and soldiers had two options:
One is to simply change Siming Prefecture to local officials and set up officials. However, Huang Gongsheng believed that the officers and soldiers would not do this, because Siming Prefecture was a large state of Siming Prefecture and its status was extremely important. If the officers and soldiers did this, the Huang family would probably oppose it and even cause a disturbance. At least it stands to reason that Huang Zhiting would not be willing to see Siming Prefecture change its soil and return to its current status.
This is actually what Huang Gongsheng doesn't understand about Huang Zhiting's actions. Siming Prefecture is so important to Siming Mansion. Even if she doesn't like her and insists on sending troops to show the majesty of the master's family, there is no need to recruit the imperial army. Ah, isn't this inviting a wolf into the house? Does this stupid girl think that the imperial court mobilized troops and mobilized people like this just to help her show the majesty of the master's family?
Humph, even if I am defeated by then, it still depends on how you, stupid girl, will end up!
The second choice for the army is to find another one from within the Huang family to take charge of Siming Prefecture. However, this is easier said than done. The key lies in choosing a family that can get along with Huang Chengzu and Huang Zhiting. If it is nearby, then the court will still get nothing and be busy in vain; conversely, if a branch that is alienated from Huang Chengzu and Huang Zhiting is found to take charge of Siming Prefecture, then Huang and his daughter will definitely not do it.
Therefore, no matter how the court chose, Huang Gongsheng felt that it was not suitable, so in the end the court just punished him and then continued to let him take over.
As for whether the imperial court would simply hand over Siming Prefecture to the Siming Mansion, Huang Gongsheng thought it would not be the case, because the imperial court would never consider strengthening the heads of the Cen and Huang families. As far as the chieftain is concerned, the court's consistent attitude is to weaken. ∷八∷八∷Read ∷Books,.≮.※o
Obviously, Huang Gongsheng had no understanding of Gao Pragmatic.
Out of such considerations, Huang Gongsheng felt that the current attitude of the court was actually the same as in the past. They mainly wanted to "save face" - after all, they were killing brothers, although it was not that unusual among chieftains. thing, but the Ming court has always been particularly strict with this kind of behavior.
In particular, Huang Gongsheng has found out that the person heading south this time is the new Guangxi patrol commissioner. These inspectors all like to find fault with their bosses. This inspector heard that he had killed his brother and his brother not long after he took office. It was inevitable that he would be a little angry. This is human nature.
It seems that we need to send someone to the security guard to admit his mistake. By the way, we may have to spend a few dollars to take care of things...
This is the disadvantage of being in a remote place. Huang Gongsheng didn't know Gao Pragmatic's origin and background at all. He only regarded him as an ordinary official, thinking that he could turn this page by admitting his mistake and taking care of everything.
Just when Huang Gongsheng was preparing to send someone to admit his mistake and start counting and preparing gifts from the Siming Prefecture treasury, the artillery battalion led by Ni Zhonghua had already crossed the Mingjiang River and reached the southern line.
Artillery camp, this is a highly pragmatic term. In fact, people in Ming Dynasty these days prefer to use "car camp" to refer to artillery units that are concentrated and used. Ni Zhonghua was very happy that he could lead the artillery battalion. He believed that this was the benefit of his unusual humility in front of the high press.
In this battle, the Han army as a whole probably won't get much military exploits. Only Ni Zhonghua, who leads the artillery battalion, is very likely to get some military exploits. By then, he might be able to become the deputy commander-in-chief. This is Take a giant step forward.
In the Ming army, commanding the chariot camp was not an opportunity that ordinary people could get, because the Ming army had different war ideas from those of previous dynasties, and attached great importance to firearms.
Before the Ming Dynasty, "emphasis on doctrine over weapons" had always been the mainstream military thought. Most military strategists advocated seeking victory. Although they still held a positive attitude towards the role of weapons in war, they did not pay attention to the update and development of weapons and equipment. Not paying enough attention.
However, in the Ming Dynasty, the situation began to change. Compared with the past wars in the era of pure cold weapons, firearms played an unprecedented role, and the concept of winning wars that focused on "victory with weapons" began to appear in various discussions.
When Emperor Zhu Di discussed military strategies, he not only required military commanders to be good at using existing formations and tactics flexibly, but also emphasized the use of firearms and the need to win with weapons. At present, Qi Jiguang, the most famous military strategist of the Ming Dynasty, also attaches great importance to the role of weapons and equipment. He believes that "having elite soldiers without elite weapons to help them is said to be weak."
Marx once said: "With the invention of new combat tools, namely shooting firearms, the entire internal organization of the army must have changed. The relationships by which the individual individuals constitute the army and can act as an army have changed. The relationships between the various armies have changed. Changes have also occurred.”
This change was particularly evident during the Ming Dynasty, when firearms were the mainstay of both hot and cold weapons. As a result, Ming's army-building ideas became increasingly mature.
Structure determines function. With the new development of firearms and their widespread use in warfare, it caused changes in the internal structure and organization system of the Ming Dynasty army. This change was most obviously manifested in the creation of specialized firearms troops in the Ming Dynasty.
The most famous one is of course the formation of the Shenji Battalion, which gradually separated the firearms soldiers from the infantry and formed an independent branch. The creation of the Shenji Battalion greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the Ming Army. Compared with the European Firearms Corps created in Spain in the early 16th century, the Ming Firearms Corps was created about a century earlier.
It can be seen that the Ming Dynasty was not lagging behind at this time, at least in terms of military development ideas.
Later, with the further development of firearms, Ming Dynasty began to form firearms vehicle battalions, which better solved the problem of mobile combat with firearms.
There are several types of vehicle camps: heavy vehicle camps, light vehicle camps and vehicle and riding camps. The chariot camp is actually a firearm camp. The firearms are not only shielded by chariots, but also facilitated by the chariots for mobile combat. As a form of combined force of artillery, cavalry, and infantry, the cavalry battalion is the product of the development of firearms to a certain stage and represents a new combat effectiveness.
But what Ni Zhonghua was even more happy about was that Gao Pragmatic gathered all the train camps on the northern line and gave him command.
This practice was not common in the Ming Dynasty, but Ni Zhonghua had heard of it - Liu Xian had done this kind of thing before, but it was his first time to command such a large-scale car camp, so he was quite eager to try it.
Of course, since Guangxi is a poor province, there are no General Tianwei and Second General Shenwu in this battle. There are 3 Generals Honglei, 14 Generals Feilei, 24 Generals Jiesheng, and Mielu. There are 30 cannons, 60 tiger crouching cannons, and 60 tornado cannons. There are a total of 109 large and small Franco aircraft.
The statistical unit of "bit" is a characteristic of the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty liked to call medium and large artillery a certain general, so as to use "bit" to refer to it.
Although there is no statistics, Ni Zhonghua estimates that these artillery pieces may account for at least more than one-third of the entire Guangxi official army's mobile artillery.
With so many cannons hitting Mingjiang City, Ni Zhonghua felt that Gao Xunping was giving himself credit. If he still couldn't seize this opportunity, wouldn't he, Mr. Ni, be stupid?
Without waiting for Huang Zhiting to express his position, Ni Zhonghua observed the position for a while and then began to order the arrangement. At the same time, he sent someone to ask Huang Zhiting to send wolf soldiers to protect the car camp - although Ni Zhonghua did not think that Huang Gongsheng had the courage to fight out of the city. But be careful and you won't make a big mistake. Anyway, the friendly troops are chieftains and wolf soldiers, so if you don't use them, you won't use them in vain.
Although Huang Zhiting was very unhappy with Ni Zhonghua's attitude, for the sake of the two hundred or so "generals", she still pinched her nose and admitted it - after all, it was more cost-effective to destroy the city with artillery than to use the lives of her wolf soldiers to fill it.
Huang Zhiting had been confronting Huang Gongsheng at the foot of Mingjiang City in Siming Prefecture for nearly a month. It was not like she had done nothing. The moat in Nancheng had already been filled in by her wolf soldiers, and Ni Zhonghua's cannons could reach the bottom of Mingjiang City if they wanted.
However, Ni Zhonghua felt that his skill was already complete and was unwilling to take such a risk. He only placed 3 generals from Honglei, 14 from generals from Feilei, and 24 from 5th from Jiesheng on the outside of the original moat. The main entrance and front wall of Mingjiang City are ready to start firing. The rest of the prisoner-killing cannons, tiger crouching cannons, cyclone cannons, and large and small Franco aircraft were arranged behind them and moved according to the opportunity.
More than a thousand wolf soldiers sent by Huang Zhiting were divided into two teams to guard in front of the car camp. The queue of these wolf soldiers seems to be quite orderly, but they are a little restless, but not for anything else, but for the first step after the city is broken, to rush into the city and rob...
However, at this moment, a small white flag suddenly flew from the tower, and a hanging basket was lowered from the tower. A man jumped out of the basket and shouted: "Wait a minute, do it, wait a minute, the villain is asking to see you on the order of the second master." It belongs to the patrolman!" 11
