The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 330 Decisive Battle in the Country of Sakura (3)

Ding Yi said kindly to him: "You guys have gone from miscellaneous soldiers to defensive guerrillas in just two or three years. It's just because you were born the earliest with me. But in terms of real skills, I'm glad that the Dongjiang army will be a little behind."

Zhao Dashan was slightly dissatisfied. He always thought that Dongjiang Ding Yi was the only one who was smart.

Ding Yi felt that he was the most swollen, and said earnestly: "The leader of the army is different from the small fights of dozens of us before."

"A wrong decision will lead to the loss of thousands of troops, and a big defeat will destroy the families of countless brothers."

"Every decision we make is crucial."

"Dashan, among Xu Dabao's old brothers, you and Zhang Jing are the only ones who can use their brains. Others have higher positions, but their skills are not much higher. Among the chief officers of several battalions, Mao Xin is still better. , He used to be Dongjiang Qianzong, and he worked for ten years, so in terms of experience and ability, he is better than you."

"Of course, fighting this thing does not depend entirely on experience. Some people are gifted."

"You Xu Dabao's brothers are always together. You have to take the lead and remind them often to learn more, obey Dongjiang's generals more, and improve your abilities, so that you can go out in the future and stand alone."

Zhao Dashan no longer smiled, and nodded solemnly.

In Master Ding's words, he heard several different meanings.

Xu Dabao's brothers are often together?Well, most of the battalion chief officers under Ding Yi came from Xu Dabao.

At present, Ding Yi's army is basically divided into two factions, one is from Xu Dabao, and the other is from Lushun and Dongjiang.

In the future, we have to keep a distance from Zhang Jing and the others. Zhao Dashan quickly felt the point, Ding Tou had to balance, so he had to use the Dongjiang general.

Unexpectedly, Ding Yi stared at him suddenly: "Do you think that you will keep a distance from Zhang Jing and the others in the future?"

"..." Zhao Dashan's face was terrified, Dingtou, are you a roundworm in my stomach?
"Ni Niang, Zhao Dashan, what are you thinking all day?" Ding Yi was half dead with anger.

This Zhao Dashan is too smart, so he didn't let Zhao Dashan lead the army, let him run the intelligence department.

Zhao Dashan was very embarrassed and didn't know that he was wrong.

"Dashan, don't think about it all day long. We are brothers for a day and will always be brothers. It was like this before, and it will be like this in the future." Ding Yi said sincerely.

Zhao Dashan nodded with a silly smile, and he also had a feeling in his heart that Mr. Ding seemed to have never changed, he was still Xu Dabao, the Ding head of Daxingbao.

As long as he is willing to scold Anni Niang, he must still be a brother.

If Ding Tou stopped talking about Niang Niang that day, something must have happened.

Shang Kexi in the original history participated in the suppression of Pidao's rebellion, and did a good job. If he was not forced by Shen Shikui, he would not have invested in the latter.

In terms of being alone, Shang Kexi at the moment can be tempered.

So Ding Yi took him this time and let him lead the army.

Shang Kexi didn't expect that Ding Yi would reuse him, after all, he also knew that in Ding Yi's army, Xu Dabao's lineage was the most likely to be reused.

Fortunately, he himself is willing to learn. Lushun soldiers trained Pidao soldiers before, so the officers also asked to participate. Many people resisted, but Shang Kexi treated himself like a recruit, and trained hard for more than four months. He learned about Lushun soldiers. way of fighting.

At this time, he was standing in a small bunker covered with many sandbags in front, holding a telescope in his hand, watching the Japanese coalition forces approaching.

The artillery of the coalition forces had just stopped, and the infantry rushed up.

Xi Laojing kept reporting the distance.

"800 meters."

"750 meters."

This distance has already entered the range of the field artillery, but Shang Kexi did not order.

He felt that the coalition forces in front of him had poor discipline, and they might collapse after a wave of artillery fire.

hold on.

700 m.

"600 meters." The voice of the Xilaojing became louder and louder.

"Hit in the middle, don't hit the front." Shang Kexi finally ordered at this time.

"Fire." Boom, the first shot of the 12-pound field gun was fired first.

At this time Ding Yi brought seventy cannons, one of which was the first.

Whoosh, the cannonball flew out and landed in the crowd of coalition troops. It knocked down two coalition troops in an instant.

But this kind of damage is only equivalent to a splash among the [-] forwards, not to mention that there are [-] to [-] soldiers behind the coalition.

Ota Zizong chose to fight here because it is 500 meters wide from left to right, which is very suitable for large-scale corps ants to attack.

He kept 7000 of his nearly [-] infantry as a reserve team, and the remaining [-] troops went up in three waves, which didn't take up much space.

After seeing the point where the cannon was dropped, Xi Lao immediately ordered: "Lower one degree, hit in the middle of the target."

A few seconds later, the adjusted artillery, bang bang bang, ten artillery pieces fired one after another.

Their defensive distance is nearly 500 meters, and ten artillery pieces are inconspicuous at a distance of 600 meters.

After falling, there will not be much splash.

There was a bit of panic in the coalition formation, but everyone still rushed forward at this time.

Ota Zizong was also watching with a telescope, and at this moment he sighed: "Fortunately, they don't have many shots."

All the generals of the coalition army nodded.

At this time, the forward soldiers and horses have already rushed within 500 meters.

at this time.

Boom, the whole sky seemed to shake violently, bang bang bang, from the position of the Ming army, the continuous sound of cannons sounded like firecrackers.

The other more than 40 artillery pieces fired successively. (Ding Yi brought seventy cannons, fifty of which are placed here)
These more than 40 cannons are divided into three rows behind the wall, because they are blocked by the wall, and Ota Zizong in the distance can't see it with a telescope.

Now the cannons were fired one after another, swishing, swishing, more than 40 shells came through the air.

In the defense distance of more than 500 meters, it is equal to one shot within ten meters.

This time it was like a thunderstorm, dense shells fell on the crowd.

Puchi, the scene was bloody and bloody, screaming again and again.

The middle section of the coalition forces seemed to have suffered a catastrophe. There was a vacuum in the middle of the beating, and there were countless casualties.

"Ah!" The people in the second half of the coalition army were frightened and fled to both sides.

"Hiss..." Ota Zizong and others looked pale.

The cannons of the Ming army were many, small, and powerful, which they had never seen before.

Before Ota Zizong could react, and he didn't know who was taking the lead, the coalition striker suddenly collapsed and turned around and ran away.

Then I saw all coalition troops running on the battlefield. Thousands of coalition troops were hit by Ding Yi's cannon for two rounds and ran back immediately.

The rear of the coalition had no choice but to retreat, and the first wave of attack could not be defeated.
"Damn it." Ota Zizong was furious, turned around and said sharply, "Whose soldier is the forward?"

Someone weakly said, the lord of Sendai (now the founder of Sendai City), Date Masamune's soldiers and horses.

After a while, the defeated coalition forces retreated one after another.

The commander-in-chief of the Sendai Domain, the second son of Date Masamune, Date Tadamune (a few years later, the second-generation lord of the Sendai Domain), brought his general Ono to visit Ota Zizong.

Ono was the commander of the Chinese army, and he knelt down as soon as he arrived, saying that he was guilty, and claimed that he had just beheaded a few defeated soldiers who flinched.

Ota Takamune's face was as heavy as water, and it was not easy to get angry. Date Masamune had a high moral character and was already in his 60s. Even Tokugawa Iemitsu respected him very much.

After thinking for a while, he said: "The artillery of the Ming army should also rest, and it will take a long time to fire a cannon. Tell your soldiers and horses, don't be afraid, just charge forward."

"Hi" Ono and Date Tadamune nodded in succession.

Ota thought for a while, and recruited a close friend: "Go back quickly, and ask the general to send more troops. I still need at least 2 people."

The faces of everyone at the scene changed drastically.
