I'm a big dick

Chapter 202
The situation developed rapidly, and while paying casualties, the Ming army was still advancing persistently and courageously.

When the forwards of the Ming army stopped to adjust, the grenadiers following behind the team showed their power again, throwing Hongtianlei one after another at Jiannu.

An explosion is a lot of casualties, dazzling flashes, ear-shattering loud noises, blood and flesh flying, and tragic wailing, weakening Jiannu's remaining fighting spirit.

Before the smoke of the explosion dissipated, the fire points on the opposite side exploded.

The muskets of the Ming army showed their power again, and the lead bullets fired one after another at the standing enemy with the heat of death.

Advance, shoot, bomb... Despite the casualties caused by bows and arrows, the Ming army continued to advance tenaciously and bravely.

Seeing his troops bleeding and falling down, and the retreating battle formation facing collapse again, Ji Erhalang's eyes were tearing apart, he drew out his long knife, and prepared to charge with all his strength.

At this moment, three small vehicles were suddenly launched from the Ming army formation, and under Jiannu's gradually frightened eyes, the muzzle of the black hole was pointing at them.

Under the cover of the sword and shield hand, the artillery launcher with the torch lit the fuse.

Huo Huo rushed quickly and got into the medicine room.With a bang, a scorching flame flashed, hundreds of projectiles rushed towards Jianu, and thick smoke rose at the same time.

With the Fran machine gun and cannon shells, the Jiannu in front of the battle line were immediately knocked down by the dense projectiles sprayed out.

This is not over yet, the Fran cannon has a shorter range and less power, but its advantage is its speed.For skilled gunners, it only takes a few seconds to replace the gun.

boom!There was another dense rain of bullets sweeping across, and blood mist sprayed out from Jiannu's body. Some died on the spot, and some fell to the ground and let out screams.

One shot after another, like the scythe of death, mercilessly harvested the lives of Jianu.

It's over, it's over!Ji Erhalang's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, under such a fierce blow, the final will of the army would inevitably be destroyed.

The gunfire stopped, the smoke gradually dispersed, and Jierhalang saw a miserable scene.

The corpses lay horizontally, and the wounded fell to the ground. The unbearable pain caused the wounded to roll, twist and twitch, and let out an inhuman wail.

An officer had no weapon in his hand, and he was covering his bleeding stomach with both hands, but barely fell.His eyes were dazed and dull, as if he still couldn't believe what had happened.

The battle formation of the Ming army advanced again with the sound of war drums, and a volley of guns rang out. The Jiannu officer was hit by a bullet again, and fell to the ground to die with blood spattering.

"Lord Baylor." The soldiers who had gone to report to Amin rushed back and said eagerly: "Er Baylor ordered you to retreat immediately."

Jierhalang's eyes were a little dull, he looked at the flag of the Ming army that was getting closer and clearer, and didn't respond.

"Lord Baylor!" The guard grabbed Jierhalang's reins and repeated Amin's order loudly again.

Jierhalang's eyes rolled, and he regained some vitality.

The battle formation of the Ming army is still advancing steadily, while its own troops have reached the brink of collapse.

When the two cannon carriages were pushed out again, pointing at the Houjin army.Knowing that the general situation was over, Jierhalang decisively issued an order to retreat.

Looking at the battlefield full of dead and wounded for the last time, Ji Erhalang was full of grief, turned his horse's head abruptly, and galloped away without looking back.

That's right, it is said to be retreating, but this is before the battle, it is no different from running away and being defeated.

Although there were horses behind Jiannu's formation, those wounded soldiers who fell to the ground were all abandoned.

The Ming army didn't catch up, and they couldn't catch up. After a few rounds of guns, the battle was still advancing steadily.

With no expression on his face, he stabbed the bayonet into the wounded Jiannu soldier's chest, stepped on his hand and pulled it out. The bloody bayonet stayed in the air for a while, and then pointed at the next target.

Feng Datie and his comrades stepped on Jiannu's body, beheaded Jiannu's wounded soldiers, and stepped forward firmly, forward!
.....................

Zhenjiang.

The head of the city has been replaced with the flag of the Dongjiang Army. The dilapidated city wall and the blackened city wall show that a great war has just ended.

The more than 1000 Jiannu and more than [-] Western captives and Han troops stationed in the garrison were completely wiped out under the siege of tens of thousands of Dongjiang troops from the Two Associations.

Although Mao Wenlong really wants to occupy Zhenjiang and provide a barrier for Sinuiju and Tieshan across the river, he also knows that it is not the time yet.

Sweeping around, relocating people and clearing the fields, the work is in full swing.Even if Zhenjiang is abandoned, a deserted land will be left for the Jiannu, making it difficult for them to stay for a long time.

It's autumn, and although the weather hasn't cooled down, some signs of seasonal changes can already be seen in the wilderness.

Standing at the top of the city, looking into the distance, Mao Wenlong was very moved.

Among them, there is not only the feeling of revisiting the old place, but also the feeling after repeated battles.

"Our army also needs a unit that is good at fighting in the mountains." Mao Wenlong pointed to the distance and said, "If not, we can't stop the Eastern captives and protect the safety of Zhenjiang."

Zhenjiang City is small, but its area is very large. When it expands, it is equivalent to Dandong City in later generations, including Fengcheng, Kuandian, Xiuyan and other counties.

From the perspective of topography, the north is high and the south is low, with mountains and hills as the main areas, and plains and valleys only account for one-twelfth of them.Therefore, it is also known as "seven mountains, one water, half field, half road and manor".

In Mao Wenlong's view, the mountains and hills in the north are the natural positions to prevent Jiannu from attacking.

Especially in the north of Kuandian and Fengcheng, the terrain is the highest.The mountains are undulating and the forests are densely covered. It is difficult for Jiannu, who is good at field warfare in the plains, to take advantage of them.

After several battles, Mao Wenlong and other generals are very confident in using the terrain and fortifications to hold fast with muskets and grenade vehicles.

"There are nearly a thousand soldiers in Jin Town. I wonder if they can be transferred?" Gou Zhenhuai pondered and said, "Mikemen, the defense is very good. It may not be suitable for fighting in the mountains and forests."

After a pause, Gou Zhenhuai added with a smile: "Fortunately, there is a bayonet, which has the same function as a spear. Well, I think it is more vivid to call it a bayonet."

Mao Wenlong laughed, and felt that the bayonet was not like a knife, but rather ugly.

Chen Jisheng laughed twice, and said: "For mountain warfare, we still need to strengthen training. Not to mention Zhenjiang, but the Sinuiju and Tieshan borrowed from North Korea. If we can prevent the establishment of slaves in the outer mountainous areas, we can also resettle more Liao people. Vigorously cultivate the fields to slow down military supplies."

Mao Wenlong nodded his head lightly, expressing his agreement, and said slowly: "The troops fighting in the mountains need to be trained, and the defense of the positions must also be strengthened. After several battles, I feel that digging fortifications on the flat ground is also very powerful, but there is no need to rely on the city. Or defend against the Eastern captives according to danger."

"Trenches and parapets are indeed a good way to defend against the enemy." Gou Zhenhuai patted the city wall and said, "As long as you are fast enough, you can protect yourself in the wild. If you have a WISCO car, it will be even easier."

Mao Wenlong took a look at Gou Zhenhuai, and said: "This year the imperial court spent too much money, and Wansui spent several times in domestic funds. I'm afraid that the equipment of WISCO vehicles and field artillery will have to wait until next year."

Naturally, he put his hand on the hilt of the imperial saber at his waist. After thinking for a while, Mao Wenlong said, "Why don't we make a batch first. Although they are crude, they are no worse than Jiannu's shield chariots."

"The formation of chariots is indeed a sharp weapon for field defense." Chen Jisheng said: "After the shape is determined, let the people build it, and just pay them some food."

Gou Zhenhuai smiled, and said: "There will be no shortage of food. Long live has already asked sea merchants to transport grain from Nanyang to Liao, and next year, sweet potatoes will be planted on various islands in Dongjiang Town, which will alleviate the shortage of food."

Arching his hands to the west, Gou Zhenhuai continued: "Long live is wise, wise and wise, everything has been arranged properly. Methods such as whaling and duck raising will make the Liao people not suffer from hunger, and the Dongjiang army will also have meat and fish to eat .”

Mao Wenlong and Chen Jisheng hurriedly praised it, no matter how effective it is, what the emperor wants to do is to be good, to be good.

.....................

It is said that whale meat is delicious, as tender as veal, but as the ninety-five supreme being, how can I not eat it?
Of course Zhu Youxiao wants to eat, he must eat.Not only his own desire to talk, but also solve the food and even nutrition problems of Dongjiang soldiers and civilians.

Historically, Dongjiang Town had taken in nearly a million Liao people. If these Liao people could eat well and be strong, and equip them with enough armor and weapons, recruiting soldiers from these Liao people might be able to wipe out Jiannu.

"Your Majesty, the servants are fine." Li Chengcheng walked over respectfully and presented a report.

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand to take it, checked it carefully, and said, "Well, that's right."

This is a statistical report similar to later generations, with entry and exit and other items, it seems clear at a glance.

Zhu Youxiao subcontracted the sales of Silver Mirror to businessmen such as Li Dan, Yan Siqi, Wu Dazhang, etc., but Zhu Youxiao did not expect that they would pay the money first.

Even Li Dan and Yan Siqi paid more, because the silver mirror was sold to a foreign royal head, and the price they paid was unexpectedly high.

Is it on the road, or flattering?Zhu Youxiao didn't want to make a careful distinction, and he didn't want to charge more money from the so-called "taken advantage".

The emperor needs to pay attention to faith. It depends on who he is dealing with, and more importantly, whether he has a long-term vision and a broad mind.

Now that the rules of sales share have been set, Zhu Youxiao doesn't want to break it, even if the extra money is very tempting.

Moreover, the largest market for silver mirror sales is not the Japanese country, nor the Southeast Asian countries, let alone the country.Although in two or three years, sales in these three major markets will not be saturated.

Where is the biggest market identified by Zhu Youxiao?
It is also easy to imagine that through Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, and even later the British, the silver mirrors whose quality is far superior to that of Venice will be marketed throughout Europe.

Just the hall of mirrors that the French are proud of, what kind of broken things are used, tin amalgam mirrors, the grade is too low.

Replace it with Daming's silver mirror, and you can sell nearly a thousand mirrors at once. How much money will you make!

Zhu Youxiao resisted the urge to snap his fingers, put down the report, and smiled at Li Chengcheng: "Well done, I will reward you."

"The duty of a servant girl does not dare to accept the reward from the emperor." Li Chengcheng was very happy, but he still refused according to the etiquette.

"Forget it then." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, "Just step back!"
