The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Tang Aren waved his hand and said.

"Go back and rest! I'll just keep an eye on this side."

"The cooking team in the camp made ginger soup. After you go back, drink some ginger soup to warm your body."

Tang Aren is the newly appointed company commander. Although he has made military achievements, he is still an officer released from the Imperial Guard.

But it is not so easy to convince the public.

In order to convince the public, everyone has their own way!
Some people will choose to physically punish their subordinates and use strong methods to make them completely obedient.

Some people will choose to pull one faction to beat the other, and put their own people down below, mixing sand.

However, the method Tang Aren adopted was to be the first in everything, to care about his subordinates, to set an example for everyone, and to use this method to convince the public.

Overall, the effect is not bad!

At the very least, now Xu Shan is full of gratitude and admiration for Tang Aren.

Who wouldn't want a superior who takes the lead in everything and cares about his subordinates?
The bright and dark sentries of the Ming army are all over the outside of Tianjin, as well as on the official road from Tianjin to the capital.

Closely monitor every move of the Qing court.

After all, Tianjin was right under the eyes of the Qing court, and the Qing court might mobilize heavy troops to kill them at any time. No matter how cautious the Ming army was, it could not be overstated.

……

The 19th year of the Yongli calendar of the Ming Dynasty, the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the end of the new year is approaching!
More than ten days after the Ming army landed from Dagukou, the Qing government finally sent a conquest army to Tianjin.

Three thousand Mongolian cavalry and more than ten thousand green battalion horse infantry marched from the capital to Tianjin along the Tonghui River.

Chen Tai, the leader of the army, climbed to the top of the city of Tianjin and looked in the direction of Dagukou with deep eyes.

In the howling wind, he gathered his robe and just spoke.

"Order the army to send troops immediately!"

"Before the New Year's Eve, this general will send the good news to the emperor's desk!"

He, Chen Tai, wants to dedicate his great contribution to defeating the Ming thieves who invaded Tianjin as a New Year's gift to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

To... his father!
Fei Yanggu was about to operate him to inherit the position of leader of the Zhenglan Banner. For him at this time, the importance of military merit was self-evident.

When Chen Tai's generals heard the words, they clasped their fists to accept the order, and then began to prepare for sending troops.

A large number of soldiers, war horses, and civilian husbands drove out from Tianjin City, followed the official road, and headed for Dagukou.

In the marching team of the Qing army, the artillery pulled by the horses is the most conspicuous.

The barrels of these cannons are dark and exude a metallic luster.

The heavy gun body is convenient for transportation and can be quickly adjusted to shoot on the battlefield. It is also equipped with supporting facilities such as gun mounts and gun carts that the Qing court imitated Ming Dynasty.

A line of text is engraved on the tail of these artillery pieces, indicating the origin of these artillery pieces.

Daqing Jingshan Manufacturing Factory Supervision!
That's right, this is the cannon cast by the Jingshan Cannon Foundry of the Qing court.

In terms of shape, it is basically an imitation of the artillery of the Ming army!
Although due to the gap between the Qing court and the Ming Dynasty in terms of materials and casting techniques, the Qing court's artillery is not as good as the Ming army's artillery in terms of performance.

But compared with the various large and small artillery used by the Qing court in the past, the power of these newly cast artillery is quite impressive.

The Qing army marched towards Dagukou in a mighty manner, and the Ming army deployed bright and dark posts around Tianjin City, constantly sending out emergency warnings to Dagukou.

The Ming army, which was continuing to build the Dagukou Fortress, quickly began to prepare for battle!

The soldiers began to put on their armor, and then prepared to enter the defense line to deploy their defenses.

The lower-level military officers began to mobilize the soldiers below, and the high-level generals gathered to discuss military strategies.

The Ming army fleet moored outside Dagukou was also ready for battle.

All the gun ports on the side of the ship facing the land were opened, and black muzzles protruded from the gun ports, exuding a fascinating luster.

The artillery strength of the Ming army on the shore is not strong. Most of them are small-caliber light artillery deployed on the front line of the battlefield, or field artillery to provide support firepower for infantry.

The number is only a few dozen doors!

Although, in this era, no country in the world can count as a small number.

But to Daming, it's really just so-so!

For the Ming army, it was not the dozens of small-caliber cannons that really provided fire support for this battle, but the naval guns on the Ming army warships moored outside Dagukou.

Those hundreds of large-caliber naval guns are the key to this battle!
Tang Aren huddled in the ditch, and after finishing his armor, he spoke to his subordinates.

"The bayonets have all been polished!"

"Waste more energy now, and fight later, maybe you can save your life!"

"For us soldiers, the weapons in our hands are our second lives on the battlefield, so we can't be too careful."

His subordinates nodded after hearing the words, and then sharpened the bayonet in their hands meticulously.

Xu Shan, who was beside Tang Aren, shrank his neck, wiped the snot from the cold with his sleeve, and couldn't help but speak.

"This damn weather is so fucking cold!"

Tang Aren sighed and said.

"I've been in the south for a long time, and I came to the north all of a sudden. It's true that I can't adapt to the climate here."

"At first, I complained that compared with the iron armor of my Ming Dynasty Restoration Army, the cotton armor of the Qing Dynasty was really ugly, but when I went to the north, I realized how practical the ugly cotton armor is."

"Damn it, I don't want to wear this beautiful iron armor now, I want a cotton armor!"

"That thing is ugly, but it really keeps warm!"

Speaking of this, Tang Aren shrank his neck subconsciously to prevent the cold wind from pouring into his neck.

This is the first time that the Restoration Army is envious of the equipment of the Qing Army...

In the past, they didn't pay much attention to the equipment of the Qing army.

In fact, Zhu Hongyu knew that the Ming army in charge of the Bohai Rim operation was going to land in Tianjin, and even landed from Lushun and entered Liaodong.

Most of the soldiers of the Ming army were from the south, so they certainly could not adapt to the northern climate.

Zhu Hongyu asked logistics in advance to prepare thick winter clothes for the Ming army in charge of the Bohai Rim operation.

It's just a pity that even with winter clothes, the soldiers of the Ming army still couldn't adapt to the northern climate.

Since the time when they landed at Dagu Port, although the Ming army's logistics has been against the army's supply of ginger soup and some high-calorie foods.

But many people in the army still fell ill!

Now that the war is approaching, many people are dragging their sick bodies to the battlefield.

Coughing sounds from time to time!

……

At this moment, there was a loud roar like thunder suddenly sounded between the sky and the earth.

That's horseshoes trampling the ground!
Looking around, a large group of cavalry came from the west.

Flags fluttered, smoke and dust billowed from the ground, and various colored cotton armors formed different square formations, charging towards Dagukou.

The knight on horseback let out a howl, holding a sword and bow, coming with a murderous look.

The melodious sound of the horn was so penetrating that it resounded throughout the battlefield!

Behind these cavalry, there are large areas of Qing army infantry, and civilian husbands...

The cavalry of the Qing army roared over, uttering strange screams, provoking the Ming army in the fortress of Dagukou.

Facing the provocation of the Qing cavalry, the Ming army's counterattack was equally sharp.

boom!Boom!Boom boom boom!

The roar of heavy artillery resounded across the battlefield, and the shells, packed with terrifying kinetic energy and greetings from the Ming army, shot towards the Qing cavalry.

The shells traced beautiful parabolas in the air, and then fell into the Qing army formation.

While tumbling and spinning, everything touched by the cannonball was smashed into pieces!
