Chapter 1085: It's not about the two masters, Modi


On the eastern outskirts of Donghu, a group of cavalry without banners galloped forward and stopped on the west bank of the river.Wu Sangui took out his clairvoyant mirror, and the Ming army's forward began to camp a mile away on the east bank of the river, and the earthen wall fortifications built by the Ming army were clearly visible.Hong Chengchou also held a telescope to check, and said in his mouth: "Your Majesty, the news from the scouts can confirm that Zhao Ming led an army of 50,000, and the main force was Jin Shenghuan's Jiangxi army, Li Ponu's battalion of elite cavalry, and Li Benshen's Guangxi soldiers, as well as Siam, Annam, and other countries' vassal soldiers!"

”Wu Sangui listened and observed with a clairvoyant mirror that the Ming army was fighting too steadily now, and he would temporarily set up a battalion, with trenches, earthen walls, and fences, and would not give him a chance.is already strong, and he is so careful, he really doesn't let others live.This made Wu Sangui a little discouraged, and put away the intention of raiding the enemy camp, but in order not to let his subordinates see his emotions, he still said in a cold tone: "The 50,000 people brought by Zhao Zamao can only be used by 20,000 Ming troops, although those feudal soldiers are here, they may not be willing to die, so we just need to beat the 20,000 Ming army!"

”Hong Chengchou also echoed: "Your Majesty is right!

On the battlefield, we only need to pay attention to the 20,000 Ming troops. ”The two of them sang and harmonized, and the many generals of the Zhou army who were standing behind them on horseback, thinking that their 150,000 army, if they only bit the 20,000 Ming army to attack, they really had a great chance of winning, so they all relaxed a little.At this time, Wu Sangui turned his head and asked Hong Chengchou: "The location of the battle, do you choose this place?"

”Hong Chengchou said: "Back to Your Majesty, here is the sea in the south, a large plain in the offshore, and mountains and woods in the north, and the terrain is enough for our 150,000 troops to deploy. ”Wu Sangui nodded, Zhao Ming has few soldiers, he has many soldiers, when choosing the battlefield, he must be able to expand his troops in order to give full play to the advantage of having more soldiers."

Good!

Then wait for Zhao Zamao to come over!

”Wu Sangui looked at the other side with deep eyes.On September 21, ~~~~~~, it rained heavily again near Yangon, and Zhao Ming led an army of 50,000 into the camp built by the forward.With the arrival of the Ming army, the Zhou army post shrank back on all fronts, waiting for the decisive battle to come.In the afternoon of the same day, the 150,000 allied troops and the 50,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty camped more than ten miles apart.At this time, although it was raining in the sky, the Ming army still sent scouts out of the camp to investigate, and the cavalry encountered the Zhou army from time to time in the wilderness, and a small-scale scout battle broke out.It rained all night on the 21st, and by the 22nd it was still raining heavily in the sky, making it worth postponing the decisive battle that should have come.At this time, thanks to the rich camping experience of the Ming army, as well as professional engineers, the Ming army took into account the rainy weather in Myanmar when it was stationed in the camp.Therefore, the camp of the Ming army was stationed on a high place, and there were drainage ditches around the tent, and the camp was not greatly affected.Compared with the Ming army, the camp of the Zhou army was a mess, the Chinese soldiers and the British, French musket team, the choice of place to be stationed was okay, the camp was also built more exquisitely, and the huge number of Indian princely state troops was more miserable."

There will be a war on a rainy day."

Modi muttered and cursed.To the north of the Zhou army's camp, the military camp of the Indian princely state soldiers has been reduced to a Ze country, the rain in the camp is knee-high, the tents are all soaked, and the entire camp is muddy."

Lord Modibi!

Your Majesty has an order for you to move your camp to a higher place. ”A warhorse galloped forward, its hooves trampled and splattered with mud that stained Modi's ornate robes.Modibi's anger was that the other party was Chinese, so he could only swallow this breath."

Please tell Your Majesty, I will move the camp!"

Modi said busily.Seeing this, the cavalry bowed slightly, and was about to hit the horse, but suddenly reined in the reins of the horse, stared at Modierbi, and said in a deep voice: "The big war is imminent, Lord Modierbi, why are you a little lacking in spirit, do you have any ideas?"

”Modigbi was startled and hurriedly shook his head, "The general misunderstood, just because the rain wet the tent, which made me a little distressed."

Although I am not Chinese, I have recently read some Chinese books and know what loyalty is.Now I am loyal to Your Majesty, and I don't care about the two masters, how can I have other ideas. ”The cavalry sneered when he heard this, and said in his heart You were originally the Mughal prime minister, and now you are serving my Great Zhou, and you have nothing to do with loyalty and righteousness at all, let alone the two masters."

Hmmm!

I know, but adults still have to cheer up, if His Majesty and Prime Minister Hong know about it, it will not be good. ”The cavalry said a word, and then rode away.In the camp of the Zhou army, when the Tubang soldiers were busy moving the camp, Zhao Ming of the Ming army wore a robe, a hat, and rode a horse, standing in a paddy field to familiarize himself with the terrain.At this time, Zhao Ming and the generals looked at the white land in the heavy rain, and their expressions were a little solemn.On rainy days, the rice fields are flooded with rainwater and the roads become muddy, which is really not the right weather for combat.However, when we think about it, in a difficult situation on both sides, an army with a firm will and quick training is undoubtedly more likely to win than a scattered army.Zhao Ming pointed at the white paddy fields with his horsewhip, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Sangui has many soldiers, few soldiers, fields full of water, and muddy roads, which limit the role of our cavalry, but at the same time, it will also limit the speed of the enemy's foot cavalry.In this way, our firearms can play a greater role. ”Zhang Jiayu said: "When this rain falls, the war elephants of Wu Sangui and the Donghu people will also be restricted. ”Zhao Ming nodded, "Yes, in this case, not only the horse's hoove, but also the elephant's leg." ”Now in terms of equipment, the equipment of the elite Zhou army and the Ming army is actually not much different, they are all flintlock muskets, bronze field guns, and then equipped with grenades, rockets and other things.However, compared with the Ming army, Wu Sangui has an advantage, that is, the war elephant team.Although this thing is not as flexible as cavalry, and it is not as difficult to control as a war horse, I have to admit that the power of his charge is unmatched, and it can crush any military formation.Now the muddy roads and waterlogged rice fields will undoubtedly limit the movement of war elephants, which is indeed good news for the Ming army.At this time, Zhao Ming observed the terrain for a while, and suddenly pointed to a small forest in the distance and asked, "Is there a Zhou army in this forest?"

”Zhang Jiayu shook his head and said, "The scouts have investigated, but there is no Zhou Jun." ”The land in Myanmar, unlike Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty, was almost entirely exploited, but piece by piece, and there were still many small forests in the middle of the paddy fields.When Zhao Ming saw this, he immediately pulled out his horse: "Let's go, let's take a look with the widow!"
