The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 563 Never Arrears
The Duke of Nanguo has already informed the entire army that no matter which soldier wins the head of the Golden Army, he will honor the head reward on the spot and will never default. The Duke of Nanguo will use his own money to cover the money for the imperial court. suffer.

This is Huang Sheng's reassurance to all the soldiers, because the imperial court denied more than half of the head rewards in the second year of Chongzhen. Many Liao soldiers still remember it fresh, and the imperial court's credibility is greatly reduced.

Huang Sheng was not in vain, and promised to hand over his head to receive the reward and pay the bill on the spot. This method was too fresh and convincing, and the Ming army was of course very excited.

They fantasized that the slave cavalry rushed into the position they had dug, and they jumped out and chopped it up. If they were lucky and got a first-level harvest, they could exchange it for 60 taels of silver. With this money, they could buy ten acres of farmland when they returned home!
Money touches people's hearts, and all Ming soldiers pay close attention to Jiannu's movements, each and every one of them is looking forward to a chance to win.

This is completely different from the wars between the Ming army and the Jiannu in the past. At that time, the Ming army also kept a close eye on Jiannu's movements, and each of them was ready to run away if the situation was not good.

Haha, I'm sorry, who brings what kind of soldiers, Huang Sheng is well aware of human nature, he first created opportunities for the Ming army, and then stimulated them with lavish rewards, and improved their combat effectiveness and armed them in the past six months. The Ming army was like hungry wolves peeping at fat sheep.

The Ming army got Huang Sheng's advice. It is very scientific to dig tunnels. First of all, you can't dig a straight line, you must dig a zigzag, and you will dig a turn every [-] steps. When there is a change and the division of troops is required, there are two roads that can diverge.

The level of the tunnel must be well controlled, the drainage ditch in the tunnel must be unobstructed, and there must be a diversion pit at a certain distance, so as to prevent the accumulation of water in the tunnel from seriously affecting the flexibility of the soldiers.

Foxholes were not dug because there was no need for them. The layout was designed to avoid enemy artillery fire and reduce casualties. How could Jiannu have any artillery fire?
The Hou Jin army, who was under the unhurried bombardment of the Ming army, was dumbfounded. The Ming army was still digging, and if it digs further, it may be connected with the tunnel dug by the Hou Jin army. Immediately, Ba Shiku hurried back to the Chinese army Enlighten the master.

Hong had expected too much about the Ming army coming to attack, but he didn't expect the Ming army to dig and fire cannons at the same time. He gritted his teeth angrily. That "Killing God" was too dishonest and unruly. How could there be any reason to fight like this?
The sense of powerlessness once again plagued a generation of heroes. At this time, Hong was about to cry but had no tears, but he still had to pretend to be calm, and he had to bear it to death. Every time in the dead of night, Ba Xiao would toss and turn and find it difficult to fall asleep peacefully. The slave chief has been exhausted physically and mentally!
Hong Xie had been secretly observing the battlefield with binoculars, and had no choice but to do it quietly, because the slave chieftain no longer knew how far the Ming army's artillery could hit.

He has never ordered the Hou Jin army to attack. He is very persistent in thinking that if the Ming army comes to the battlefield where he has painstakingly managed for nearly a year, the Hou Jin army can fully grasp the initiative.

Now it seems wishful thinking. As winter goes to spring and summer approaches, the parapets that were previously frozen and indestructible collapsed into soft mounds one by one.

There are many landslides in the tunnel, and the accumulated water has turned into mud. In some areas, not to mention fighting, it is difficult to even stand on foot.

Hou Jinjun's foot archers slipped and couldn't help, even opening the bow and releasing the arrow was a problem.

Under the current circumstances, what advantage does the Dajin Army have?Nu Chief's heart was full of misery. In fact, he had already regretted spending a whole year outside Jinzhou City.

There is no way, there is no place in the world to sell regret medicine, so I can only pay attention next time, as long as the "Killing God" of the Ming Dynasty leads the troops, what's the point of our Dajin Kingdom giving him three points?Don't put all your eggs in one basket and try to destroy this "killing god" again.

Hong Xie kept receiving reports of casualties from the first line of defense. He had no good plan for a while, and was so worried that his gray hair grew a little.

The Ming army adopted the scientific ratio of taking turns to take turns to dig every hour, and the army in four shifts quickly pushed the preset battle line to about a hundred steps in front of the Jin army's position.

This distance is the most beneficial for the Huang family musketeers. The crackling flintlock rifles can penetrate armor at a distance of [-] steps, while the projectiles fired by the Koryo musketeers cannot reach the Ming army at all.

The musketeers of the two armies finally caught up with the first round of fighting, and the Korean soldiers couldn't hold it anymore. They didn't dare to look around, let alone run away, but they were not stupid and would be passive and sabotage. Dare to lift.

Several Ba Yala, who were in charge of the battle, put on an air of fear of death and came to the front to drive the slave soldiers to fight back. Unfortunately, because they were more flamboyant, they did not bend their waists and lower their heads. .

The deaths of the masters who supervised the war were uglier than the last. Several of them had their heads blown off, and the red and white things flowed with the mud.

Ba Xiao was dizzy, the Koryo musketeers he had placed high hopes on seemed to have no ability to fight against the 'killing god' musketeers.

The imaginary artillery bombardment is no longer possible. The artillery arranged by the Jin army has been hit by the Ming army, and now most of them have turned into decorations.

Hong Xie really can't understand why the artillery fire of the Ming army can be so accurate when it hits so far?He has already realized that he may not be able to please him under the city of Jinzhou, and it is very possible to lose to that "killing god" again.

At this moment, Hong Zhe felt desolate in his heart. Since I was born with great talent and boldness, why did Hong Zhai arrange another Huang Sheng to make things difficult for me?This boy has seen a lot of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and has Zhou Yu's injustice of "how can he be born when he was born Yu" before his death.

The Ming army consolidated its position about a hundred steps away from the position of the Hou Jin army. The Hou Jin army huddled in the trenches and did not dare to raise their heads. Even so, casualties continued to occur.

Because the scout semaphore on the tall watchtower instructed the Ming Army's rifled guns to bombard slowly, they could only take their time, and the rate of fire of the rifled guns could not increase.

Although the positions built by the Jin army after the flowering bomb fell into it could no longer blow up a large area, but successfully falling into the enemy's trench can also bring three or two fresh lives of the Jin army.

Tomorrow the result will be very different again. The No. 100 Artillery Position is already deploying for defense. It is one mile away from the post-Jin Army position by [-] steps. Can join the battle.

With so many artillery pieces, half of them are 100-pound guns, and the explosive shells fired can completely cover the position of the Houjin army about [-] steps deep. The collapse of the first line of defense is inevitable.
