Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 46 The Siege of Little Black Mountain

"Wow!" Hou Jin's cavalry vanguard came to the foot of Xiaohei Mountain, thousands of cavalry were all over the mountains and plains, with banners unfurled, so majestic!
Several Baylors wearing golden helmets and holding swords at once, the most powerful people in Houjin, looked up to observe the Ming army deployed near Xiaoheishan.

"This Ming army is also strange. It took the initiative to march towards us, but it hides here like a hedgehog. Is it trying to lure us into the bait?" Daishan pointed his whip at the Ming army flag above Xiaoheishan.

"The Ming army's wishful thinking is really good. They have 3000 people, and we have 3 people, which is ten times their number. If we besiege them here, we will not be able to support them." Yue Tuo saw Chu Yun intention of.

Chu Yun was comparing consumption with Hou Jin. He was betting that Hou Jin couldn't support the consumption of food and grass for three banners and two Han army camps.

"The Ming army is really confident in themselves. I really think how long two or 3000 people can last under our offensive." Daishan sneered, "After preparing the stove for cooking, the right battalion of the Han army will attack the southwest side, Yue entrusts you Lead the embroidered red flag to attack the northwest side, and I will wait for the opportunity to support you."

Chu Yun was on a high ground in Xiaoheishan. Through the binoculars, he saw Jinbing's infantry and logistics troops gradually arriving, surrounding Xiaoheishan layer by layer, and then curling smoke rose from the barracks .

"Tsk tsk, look at this battle, there are more than 2 people. Heh, there are more than 2 people and thousands of horses. The food and grass for a day is an astronomical figure. There are not many villages here, and it is far away from Fuzhou. Let's see if you can support them." When will it be?" Seeing that there were more and more golden soldiers, Chu Yun didn't get nervous, but instead smirked.

"The golden soldiers will attack after cooking, so everyone must be very energetic!" The commanders of the two infantry battalions, Changyi and Chadley, went to the first line of defense to boost morale.

The first line of defense consists of two lines, each with three lines of musketeers, shooting in three stages.When the first line of defense cannot resist, they will abandon the first line of defense and retreat to the second line of defense.

"Master Battalion Commander, we are condescending, and our muskets shoot farther than their bows and arrows, so they can't hit us!" The soldier on the first line of defense patted his chest and said, "We swear to protect the first line of defense to the death, and prevent the golden soldiers from attacking us!" One step past the first line of defense."

"You don't have to be afraid of the bullshit if you speak big words. We don't want you to swear to protect the first line of defense. When you hear the sound of retreating artillery, you retreat back. You know? The military master said that the lives of our soldiers are more important than everything else! "Changyi scolded with a smile.

"Yes! We must retreat resolutely when we hear the sound of retreating artillery!" The soldier shouted.

"Commander, why are you saying that the golden man is so hateful? He wants to rob us when we live a good life. I don't want to go back under the rule of the golden man. I don't have enough to eat, and I'm still treated as a slave Look at it. You can see how good our Liao army is. It doesn’t bully the people. It also pays the military salary every month. My old father even worked as a blacksmith in the Jinzhou City Smelter. He gets four taels of silver a month and is respected. , He said that he has never been treated so highly in his life." A soldier complained to Changyi.

"The Jin people are a group of savages. They have no food or clothing. They never thought of producing by themselves, but came to rob us. That's why we have to drive them away and destroy them. Everyone, behind us is Jinzhou City. With our parents, our children, and our stable life, in order to protect them, we must win this battle! Long live the Liao Army, long live the Ming Dynasty!" Changyi shouted loudly.

"Long live the Liao Army, long live the Ming Dynasty!" The shouts of the soldiers sounded one after another on the first line of defense, shaking the heavens and the earth!

Chu Yun on the high ground noticed the soldiers on the first line of defense with high fighting spirit, and couldn't help secretly admiring them.Unlike Mrs. Yang who doesn't play by routine and is good at attacking, Changyi is a steady defensive military talent.

"Is the artillery battalion in place?" Chu Yun turned his head and asked Yu Cheng of the guard squadron.

On the one hand, the guard squadron is responsible for the mission of protecting Chu Yun, and on the other hand, it is Chu Yun's right and left hand, responsible for passing orders to various troops.

"David Dong, the commander of the Artillery Battalion, reported that all [-] artillery pieces are in place, and there are still [-] artillery pieces that can be deployed on the move." Yu Cheng replied.

"Hmm. Hou Jin may also use artillery, so the soldiers on the first line of defense must be careful of Hou Jin's artillery. When Hou Jin uses artillery, let them hide in the trenches, and come out to shoot after the artillery passes." Chu Cloud continues to give orders.

"Yes."

"Hey, but even if Hou Jin brought artillery, he might not be able to use it..." Chu Yun said with a smirk.

While the Liao army was tensely deploying, Hou Jin's troops began to move slowly.The right battalion of the Han army with thousands of people marched towards the southwest side of Xiaoheishan, while the inlaid red flag was unfurled, and tens of thousands of people marched towards the northwest side of Xiaoheishan.The two troops planned to attack from two different directions at the same time, allowing the Liao Army, which was already short of troops, to fight on two fronts.

"The main force of the left battalion of the enemy Han army is moving to the southwest!"

"The main force of the enemy's army with a red flag, more than ten thousand people, moved to the northwest side!"

"The enemy Zhenghongqi has not left the barracks, but it is ready to go, and it may be used as a reserve force!"

……

A piece of information was reported to Chu Yun.

"Order Dong Dawei of the Artillery Battalion to urgently transfer ten of the twelve artillery pieces to the northwest side." Chu Yun said, "The northwest side is the defensive area of ​​the Second Infantry Battalion, right? How many troops did Changyi send to the northwest side?"

"There are about two brigades." A military adviser beside Chu Yun said.

"Too few. Let all the troops of the Changyi faction keep an eye on the enemy's bordered red flag, and the fourth battalion on the southwest side, Chadli, divides a brigade as a reserve team to assist the northwest side at any time." Chu Yun said.

"The Fourth Infantry Battalion has to guard several directions at the same time, and we have to deal with thousands of people from the enemy's right battalion of the Han army. We have to deploy a brigade. Will there be gaps in the defense in other directions?" a military staff officer worried.

"Xiaoheishan is the most flat in the northwest direction, and it is the main attack direction of the Jin soldiers. Changyi will definitely be under great pressure at that time. The other directions are steep and easy to defend. The right battalion of the Han army has just been built, so there is nothing to worry about, and the defense is more than sufficient. Just follow me Do what you say," Chu Yun said.

"Then Zhenghongqi, who hasn't moved, took the opportunity to attack us? Who will protect the safety of you, the military leader?" Another counselor said.

"Isn't there still a cavalry brigade and a guard squadron? It's really impossible. I took the bayonet and brought the cook and the transport team to rush up to fight the golden soldiers!"

The huge Houjin army slowly took its place, and the tens of thousands of troops in both directions were like a giant hand, trying to capture Xiaoheishan.

Woo-woo-woo-

The desolate and long horn sounded, and the Jin army on the northwest and southwest sides launched a tentative attack on Xiaoheishan.The golden soldiers all over the mountains and plains make one's scalp tingle...

　happy New Year
