The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 383 Teach them a lesson
In the early morning of the next day, Ding Yi, who barely slept for two hours, got up early, and the soldiers handed him a pair of iron armor and helped him put it on.

He seldom wears iron armor. This iron armor was specially made for him by the Craftsmanship Bureau. It is a bit like a plate armor. The chest, back, and legs are all composed of large and large steel plates.

This set of armor uses more than 20 kilograms of fine steel, the cost is not unreasonable, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

But Ding Yi is afraid of death, so he must dress like this.

After putting on the full set of armor, Ding Yi walked a few steps. It was a bit heavy at more than 20 kilograms, but overall it was acceptable.

He doesn't have to fight in person, and it doesn't affect his movements.

The soldiers quickly brought his bow and arrows.

Since coming to the Ming Dynasty, he has taken some time to practice archery every day.

His bow was also specially made by craftsmen, and the pulling force was about one and a half stones in ancient times.

This is also the limit of his current strength.

Many generals in the army couldn't pull it off, and they admired Ding Yi quite a lot.

Ding Yi practiced bowing for more than [-] years in his previous life, and he still has a good foundation. When he first came here, he was a little malnourished and lacked in strength. Now he has practiced bow every day for three or four years, and his pulling power is getting stronger and stronger.

Huang Bin, the deputy captain of the guards, followed him with a group of guards, one of whom was carrying a quiver on his back, and all the guards followed Ding Yi, their eyes full of admiration.

"Let's go." Ding Yi laughed, took the bow and tried to pull it down, then returned it to the soldiers, and then walked to the front.

It's April now, the weather is fine, Ding Yi doesn't feel hot even in the iron armor, but for some reason, the palm of the hand holding the bow seems to be a little sweaty.

He soon knew why, since Xu Dabao came out, this was the first time he had brought more than [-] troops into a field battle with the enemy.

It's like a gambler who used to be a small gambler and won every time.

So he gradually became more courageous, took out a quarter of his net worth at once, and made a big bet with others.

Gambling against each other is really exciting, even if his psychological quality is far superior to other people in this era, even if he knows that the Korean soldiers are not even as good as the Ming army, he can still feel nervous.

Of course he understood why, because he had few soldiers and cards, so he couldn't afford to lose.

If he had 40 soldiers, he might not even command them personally, even if the [-] soldiers were exhausted, he would still be able to lose.

This made him understand the psychology of gamblers.

Those gamblers with good psychology do so because they have a lot of money.

This battle must be won, he secretly encouraged himself in his heart.

He held the bow for a while and felt it was very heavy, so he gave the bow to the soldiers behind him, and took a few soldiers to look around again.

Most of the soldiers were in full armor on the hillside, some were standing, some were squatting, and some were sitting.

This time it was defense again, and there was no queue requirement. Everyone is still very loose.

Seeing Ding Yi approaching, an officer took the lead, and they all stood up.

Ding Yi probably looked at the past, at least ten years old, basically knew all of them, some still remembered their names, and some might forget.

Because every officer's promotion must go through Ding Yi's interview and award.

Many people looked at Ding Yi with red eyes, they followed Ding Yi's belief and admiration of invincibility.

Ding Yi thought for a moment, then laughed loudly: "The Koreans are not as good as other Ming troops in our country in fighting. Today, let's teach them a lesson."

Hahaha, many officers laughed first, and the slightly nervous sergeants also laughed.

I don't know it was the low-ranking officer who suddenly raised his hand in the crowd: "Follow Mr. Ding, you will win every battle."

Immediately someone shouted: "Follow Lord Ding, you will win every battle."

"Follow Lord Ding, we will win every battle." The shouting became louder and spread farther away.

Not long after, shouts were heard from places farther away, and soon the mountains and plains were full of shouts like this, the scene was full of excitement and was very spectacular.

At this time, the dust was billowing down the mountain, and the boundless soldiers and horses of the North Korean army were gathering at the foot of the mountain from afar.

The terrain of Xinling is certainly more familiar to the Koreans than to the Ming army.

Ding Yi used a telescope to see that they did not attack from four directions at the same time.

Because the mountain shape in the east is very steep, there are not many places where you can climb the slope, so in the end the Korean army attacked from the south, north, and west directions at the same time.

On the west side, the slope is the largest, and the most soldiers and horses can be deployed, which is also the main direction of the North Korean army's attack.

Looking up, the land on the west side is full of North Korean soldiers and horses, boundless, and it seems that there are more soldiers and horses than the soldiers and horses that Jin attacked Jinzhou in the past.

Later Jin claimed to raise 2 soldiers, but there were only [-] or [-] troops under Jinzhou City.

Now North Korea has [-] soldiers and horses, almost [-] are in the west, and the momentum is huge.

Ding Yi's side quickly followed suit and issued orders one by one.

There are many guards behind him, except for those with arrows, the rest of the guards carry tokens and even pens and papers on their bodies.

According to the tense situation on the battlefield, Ding Yi will dictate and write.

"Let Xiao Yongqiu's 7th Battalion transfer a bureau to the west."

"promise."

"Ask Mr. Shen to transfer a bureau to the west."

"promise"

"Go up one person, and when the North Korean soldiers climbed to the third area, let the artillerymen come down with 60 cannons."

"promise."

The third area mentioned by Ding Yi is about 30 meters away from the west side of the mountain.

Before the North Korean soldiers came, they had divided all the places below into divisions and distinguished them with reference objects.

Some really had no reference area, so they sprinkled lime or burned it with fire, so that the artillery above could use binoculars to see clearly which area the enemy was in.

At this time, all the generals are in their positions. Ding Yi's He Xiaoche Department and Xiang Huailai Department are in charge of Ding Yi.

Ding Yi looked around: "You can go back to command, according to yesterday's arrangement, and make your own decisions depending on the situation."

The two generals looked solemn and clasped their fists together: "Yes, my lord." They all turned and left.

When the two just turned around.

Boom, a cannon sounded on the mountain.

The North Koreans took the lead in firing the artillery and opened the attack horn.

Whoosh, a huge iron ball flew towards the middle of the mountain, but when it was more than 40 meters away from Ding Yi's soldiers and horses, it plopped and fell down.

The soldiers watching all around laughed.

The artillery on the top of the mountain immediately looked through binoculars.

North Korea has hundreds of cannons, but they are basically backward generals and the like, and there is not enough gunpowder.

Most of their guns were a mile behind the infantry.

It is more than one mile away from Xinling.

It seems that they also know that the artillery of the Ming army is powerful, and they are afraid of being hit by the artillery fire of the Ming army.

But the first shot was obviously not far enough.

The infantry at the foot of the mountain has already begun to climb the mountain noisily.

The military officers from all walks of life in North Korea yelled as they climbed, don't worry, the Ming army can't run away, crawl slowly to save energy.

So the North Korean army came up very slowly.

North Korean artillery began to push forward.

There are two kinds of their cannons. One is relatively large and heavy. It is basically fixed in place and placed on a high place (either on the top of a hill or piled up with soil). Judgment location.

The other is the relatively small one just started, and it can't hit so far, and it is pushing forward at this time.

A moment later, boom, the heavy artillery behind fired a shot.

Whoosh, a shell flew up the mountain.

The Dongjiang soldiers were all watching, watching the shell fly towards the mountainside.

The cannon shot very far, and flew directly to Ding Yi's side.
