Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 112 Fight Again! (2)

"It's getting colder today."

Emperor Chongzhen tightened his cloak, frowned slightly and said: "Even if this battle is fought, it can't be fought for too long, otherwise many soldiers will be frozen to death."

With the evolution of the war situation, I haven't recalled it yet. It's already the middle of November in the second year of Chongzhen. During the Little Ice Age in Ming Dynasty, the north is getting colder and colder.

It was also in this special period, which led to frequent disasters under the Ming Dynasty, whether it was floods, droughts, or locust plagues. After every major disaster, there must be a major epidemic.

It was this series of problems that exacerbated the annexation of land under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, which in turn led to the intensification of class conflicts and created an environment for the forces of rogues.

"Dong dong dong..."

The sound of beating drums echoed in his ears, but Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts drifted to other places, and he didn't know what the scene in Guanzhong was like at this time.

The once fertile eight hundred miles Qinchuan, in the Chongzhen Dynasty, has become a life-threatening existence. The hungry and red-eyed Guanzhong man is so powerful when he joins the rebel army.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom..."

One after another, the sound of shelling and explosions dragged Emperor Chongzhen from contemplation into reality, but he saw solid bullets and piles of thunderbolts flying towards the city wall guarded by Jianlu. The huge impact and explosion The resulting impact caused a lot of casualties to the Jianlu on the city wall.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

"Kill!!"

The rain of arrows that covered the sky and the sun flew towards the walls of Santunying one wave after another. Under the joint offensive of artillery fire and arrow rain, the soldiers of the Ming army, under the command of the generals, carried a The ladder roared and rushed towards the city wall in front of it. Many soldiers pushed the battering hammer and slowly moved towards the city gate ahead.

After yesterday's victory, the Ming armies and their soldiers no longer feared Jianlu as before, and at least dared to show their swords to Jianlu.

"Fortunately, the soldiers and horses of the various ministries intercepted the moat outside the city of Santunying and filled it with stones and soil last night." Wang Qia, who was watching the battle, said with emotion at this time: "If it weren't for this, it would be a shame for us to attack Santunying today. I don’t know how many soldiers will be killed.”

"Yes."

Li Banghua nodded and said: "With Mr. Sun and the others leading the various ministries, many threats have indeed been ruled out. I hope that today's battle can break through the three camps that were stolen by Jianlu."

The large-scale siege battle, the so-called tactical arrangement before the battle, the effect is not so great, everything is acting according to the pre-war plan.

The commanders of the various ministries will make small-scale adjustments in a timely manner according to the changes on the battlefield. Unless one side can't stand it first, the siege battle must continue after it starts.

"Meet Your Majesty!!"

The people watching the battle waited, seeing the Emperor Chongzhen walking slowly, one by one bowed their hands respectfully, while the Emperor Chongzhen just waved his hand, focusing his eyes on the battlefield in the west city of Santunying.

Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, Ma Shilong's troops, and Denglai's reinforcements cooperated tacitly and coordinated operations to launch an offensive against Jianlu, who was guarding the city defense.

"Zhou Yuji, can you send someone to deliver any news?"

Seeing dozens of soldiers and soldiers of the Ming army fall from the high ladder, Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said, "There are also soldiers and horses under Hou Shilu's troops. Where are they?"

Although before this battle, I had already prepared in my heart, knowing that in the siege battle launched today, there will definitely be a lot of casualties among the soldiers and horses participating in the battle. The soldiers of the Ming army who were pushed off the ladder were...

Emperor Chongzhen felt very uncomfortable.

If it is said that there is no invasion, then they will not die on the battlefield. Maybe they are with their families, or they may eat and wait to die, but no matter what it is, it is better than throwing their lives on the battlefield.

"Your Majesty, the troops led by Zhou Yuji have launched an attack on Hongshan Pass." Wang Qia stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "This time, with the shocking thunder that Zhou Bu had accumulated earlier, the chances of winning Hongshan Pass today are very high."

Li Banghua followed closely and said: "Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses under Hou Shilu's troops have rushed to the area of ​​Shimen Town, and they will arrive at Santun Camp tomorrow at the latest.

In addition, Tianjin Sanwei urgently submitted a military report, which arrived just last night. The reinforcements rescued by King Qin from Dongjiang arrived two days ago, led by Chen Jisheng, with a total of more than [-] elite troops. "

"Oh?"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard the words, he looked at Li Banghua and said, "Do you know that under Chen Jisheng's command, there are those generals accompanying the army? Are they going to the front line now?"

Seeing that the Son of Heaven cared so much about the Dongjiang Army, Li Banghua couldn't help feeling suspicious, but he said: "According to the military report submitted by the Tianjin side, there are generals such as Kong Youde, Shang Kexi, and Geng Zhongming, but most of them are Mao Wenlong's adopted sons... "

"The righteous son is not the righteous son, let's not talk about it."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "As long as the Dongjiang Army can come, the previous grievances should be settled after this battle is over."

"..."

Wang Qia and Li Banghua were shocked when they heard the words, is the emperor going to reverse the case for Mao Wenlong?

Guys like Kong Youde are here.

Now that you're here, don't go back to Phi Island, just stay in Shenjing.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care what Wang Qia and the others were thinking. At this moment, he was thinking about how to deal with Kong Youde and the others, whether to simply kill them, or train them.

After all, given the current situation, there are no strong generals under his command who are good at fighting. It is really difficult to deal with Daming who is on fire from all sides.

Jianlu and rogue bandits, the two confidants' troubles, must be taken seriously, and one end cannot be taken seriously, otherwise the threat will not be solved at all.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom..."

The deafening explosion made Emperor Chongzhen come out of his thoughts. When he saw some soldiers jumping on the city wall guarded by Jianlu, Emperor Chongzhen opened his eyes slightly.

"Your Majesty, Jianlu's fighting spirit seems to have been crushed." Zhu Chunchen looked shocked, looked at the situation on the frontline battlefield, and said in disbelief: "Why do I feel that they are not..."

Not only Zhu Chunchen was like this, even Wang Qia and Li Banghua didn't expect that the situation on the frontline battlefield would develop in favor of Daming.

'Could it have been bombed by artillery fire? '

Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, watching more and more soldiers start to attack the city wall, this rare scene made him quite surprised.

According to Jianlu's strength, this shouldn't be the case, right? Why did Jianlu, who guarded the city defense, become so weak after several rounds of offensives?

Is there any conspiracy hidden in it? !
