Chapter 715 The Future of the Ming Dynasty


Chapter 715 The Future of the Ming Dynasty Xu Biao, as a cavalry general, he is also a little lost now.In the future, on the battlefield, will there be room for cavalry to survive?

Regardless of it, after a short hesitation, he ordered: "The whole army prepares, pursue!"

”"Kill" Xu Biao led the cavalry of the whole family army and began to launch a counter-charge against the Qing cavalry on the periphery, of course, as he expected, as the cavalry of the whole family army began to launch, when they launched, the Qing cavalry began to retreat.In the temporary camp of Daqingshan, the cavalry of the whole family army went out to pursue, and most of the wounded soldiers and immovable soldiers of the Ming army also joined the pursuit.It's just that Niu Jinxing found the deputy commander of Emperor Chongzhen's Northern Expedition in the camp, that is, Zhu Chunchen, the governor of the capital.In fact, as early as the beginning of the shelling, Zhu Chunchen came to the battlefield and watched his family use 32 heavy machine guns and 16 mortars, and scored an astonishing record of 8,000 to 0.That's right, the 8,000 Mongolian cavalry sent by Baltu was more than ten steps closer to the front of the Ming army, but this charging war horse was only a half-cut corpse.A large number of cavalry corpses were displayed in the middle of the Ming army's formation between 150 and 200 paces, and the corpses were layered and densely packed.Of course, if the military merits are calculated according to the system of the Ming army, it would be good to be able to pick up 1,500 heads in this battle, in fact, no one cares about the corpses and heads.The Northern Expeditionary Army of the Ming Dynasty almost lost its combat effectiveness, and the whole family army did not bother to clean up the battlefield at all, but pursued the Qing army.Zhu Chunchen looked at the power of heavy machine guns and mortars, and was speechless for a long time."

Mr.

Niu!""

Lord Zhu, what do you think of this battle?"

Zhu Chunchen looked at the machine gun team that was on guard in the distance, as if a pervert had met a superb beauty, and after a glance, he couldn't take his eyes off it.After a long time, he let out a long sigh and said, "The artifact of the country is invincible in the world!"

”Niu Jinxing said with a smile: "Master Zhu, do you know what level of weapon this firearm is in our Shang Kingdom?"

”"Isn't it a weapon for the town?""

Definitely!"

Niu Jinxing smiled proudly: "These 60 guns and heavy machine guns only belong to the regimental level of support firepower, this regimental level, just like the thousand general level of the Ming Dynasty, is not even a guerrilla!"

”Zhu Chunchen listened to Niu Jinxing's words, naturally he didn't believe it, he thought that Niu Jinxing was bragging."

The establishment of the merchant army adopts five levels: division, bureau, regiment, brigade, and division!"

Niu Jinxing said: "Generally speaking, four to six regiments are a brigade, four to six brigades are a division, and there is brigade-level support firepower in each brigade, that is, the eighty-two mortar, which has a longer range and greater power, above the brigade, there are divisions, and the divisional artillery is even more powerful, if they are in front of a division of the Shang State, they don't have to fight for so long at all, at most a pillar of incense, these Qing troops can't run away alone, no matter how fast their war horses are, they can't be faster than cannonballs!"

”Zhu Chunchen sighed: "No wonder the king of Shang can use the strength of an army to suppress Jiannu and dare not move, no wonder Jiannu encountered the whole family army, and he didn't even dare to fight!"

”In fact, if they dare to fight, the whole family army will usher in the biggest defeat since the formation of the army, because these family army cavalry are sleepy and tired, while the Qing army has already recuperated.What's more, the whole family army has always relied on equipment to crush the enemy.At a time when Jiannu had almost no artillery, the whole family army was equipped with a lightweight 105 mm field gun, and when Jiannu began to pay attention to firearms, the whole family army had already completed the replacement of muskets to rifles.At present, the standard equipment of the whole family army is Lao Mo, which is similar to the Mosin Nagant rifle, which uses 7.62 mm rifle cartridges and has an effective range of 800 to 1,000 meters.There is no advantage in weapons, and the whole family army is only stronger than the Ming army, especially in terms of cavalry, no matter how trained the Han people are, their riding skills are far inferior to the nomads who are born on horseback.Niu Jinxing smiled: "Lord Zhu, haven't you thought about the future?"

”"Later?""

That's right!""

Later!"

After Zhu Jinxing joined the whole family army with Emperor Chongzhen, he had been thinking about a serious problem.Quan Xu is now the king of business.He is now like Zhu Yuanzhang back then, and there is a Guo Tianxu on his head.Guo Tianxu was one of the late Yuan groups, the son of Guo Zixing, the leader of the Jianghuai Red Turban Army, and Zhu Yuanzhang was Guo Zixing's son-in-law, and later, Guo Tianxu was betrayed by traitors and died at the hands of the Yuan army.Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang successfully inherit all of Guo Zixing's political legacy.Quan Xu's situation is different from Guo Tianxu, as Lu Xiangsheng, the former top boss of Quan Xu, has no longer affected Quan Xu's qualifications and strength, and Quan Xu has already set up another door.However, the problem at the moment is that Quan Xu still has Emperor Chongzhen as his boss above his head, if Chongzhen does not die, Quan Xu can only be the king of Shang, not the emperor.Send troops and horses to rescue Chongzhen at all costs, this is Quan Xu in order to fulfill the friendship of the monarch and ministers, if Chongzhen dies in the hands of Jiannu, then the crown prince Zhu Cihong can successfully inherit the political legacy of Emperor Chongzhen, if he dies unexplained, the problem is much simpler.Of course, Emperor Chongzhen can die, but he must not die in his own hands, nor in the hands of any general of the whole family.The only way is for Emperor Chongzhen, just like Han Lin'er back then, to die in an accident, or in an unknown situation.Zhu Chunchen is also a smart person, and the communication between smart people does not need to be so straightforward, a look and a hint are enough.Just like Frank in the American drama House of Cards, just one more look at the crowd is enough.Niu Jinxing only told Zhu Chunchen that in the future.In the future, it will be Quan Xu to replace Emperor Chongzhen.In the future, the Ming Dynasty will die and the Shang will prosper, and the Shang State will replace the current Ming Dynasty and command the world.Quan Xu relied on an invincible and invincible family army.looked at Zhu Chunchen and hesitated slightly.Niu Jinxing smiled faintly and said, "Master Zhu, do you know how many divisions, brigades, and regiments does His Royal Highness Lord Shang have now?"

”Zhu Chunchen: "I want to hear about it!"

”"Not much, the Ministry of National Defense of the Shang State has 14 divisions, 56 infantry brigades, 4 marine brigades, and 3 mountain combat brigades, a total of 63 brigades, 218 regiments, including public security militia regiments in various places, in addition to the North Sea, the East China Sea, and the South China Sea, with 87 main warships, 1,054 medium warships, and more than 700,000 officers and men in the whole army!"

Hearing this, Zhu Chunchen gasped for air.Niu Jinxing said endlessly: "I'm not afraid to tell Master Zhu, from the west of Daqing Mountain, north of the Great Wall, all the way to the north of Yinshan, and to the west of Wuwei, all of which are under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Division, and it can also be said that they are all the territory of the King of Shang, of course, there are also Nanyang Mansion in Henan, Daimyofu in Hebei, Qiongzhou Mansion, Taiwan Mansion, Luzon Mansion, oh oh yes, and the Kingdom of Annan no longer exists, His Royal Highness the King of Shang organized a large army to the south as early as three years ago, all the way to attack the city and plunder the land, and now I am afraid that the entire Annan Kingdom belongs to His Royal Highness the King of Shang!"

”A gust of cold wind blew, and Zhu Chunchen's back was cold.He reached out and touched it, and his entire back was covered with sweat.The sky gradually darkened, the boundless twilight swallowed the last light of the sky, there was darkness between heaven and earth, and the road could not be seen clearly, just like the future of the Ming Dynasty.The Qing army pursued Emperor Chongzhen's Luan, menacing, they were naturally not good men and women, where they passed, they rushed to the state and hit the government, encountered the villages and towns and cities of the Ming Dynasty, and robbed them.How powerful it is when you rob, and how embarrassed it is when you retreat.Xu Biao was on the way to pursue the Qing army, watching the Qing soldiers flee without their lives, the banners and grain were thrown to the ground, the wounded soldiers were abandoned on the side of the road in despair, and the war horses that couldn't run were also abandoned.This scene of defeat made everyone who survived this bloody battle suffer the shame of life worse than death for the rest of their lives, and they could not hold their heads up.Fortunately, Xu Biao's real purpose was not to fight, and he was worried that the remnants of the Ming army would not be enough to protect the safety of Emperor Chongzhen, so he ordered the pursuit to be stopped.In this pursuit, more than 8,000 cavalry of the whole family army pursued and killed 20,000 or 30,000 Qing cavalry, beheaded more than 10,000 people, and captured them, at least no prisoners.Because Quan Xu's order was not to accept the surrender of their blood-stained Qing soldiers.In fact, these Qing soldiers who pursued Chongzhen all participated in the burning, killing and looting along the way, and everyone had human lives in their hands, although Quan Xu was in great need of labor, but this kind of massacre of ordinary people was not worthy of forgiveness at all.In the temporary camp at the foot of Daqing Mountain, there were bonfires everywhere, and the soldiers of the Ming army, whose blood stains had not yet been washed, sat around the fire and laughed, wearing a sharpened wooden stick and wearing a piece of meat cut from the dead horse, which was roasted to the point of being half-cooked and began to gobble up.The momentum of the victorious army is completely different from the unvictorious army, their morale is high, and they are gradually full of self-confidence, even if a mountain stands in front of them, they can kick it over!

I believe that if they encounter the Qing army again, they will not hesitate to pounce on it and tear it to pieces, instead of being afraid as before and retreating.The opponent is still so cunning and fierce, and it has not changed, it is only themselves who have changed.Zhu Chunchen, as the Duke of Chengguo of the Ming Dynasty, has a lot of power, and there are also family members waiting around him, he doesn't need to do it himself, someone roasted mutton and beef for him.As for horse meat, it was just food that ordinary soldiers needed.Lamb and beef, that's the food of the nobility.The roasted lamb is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, which makes people look appetizing.It's just a pity that Zhu Chunchen bites it in his mouth, but it's like chewing wax.Any history is contemporary history, Zhu Chunchen naturally knew that Yu Yongzhong did a black job and sealed the Duke of Qingguo, but the problem is that Yu Yongzhong was also condemned to death in the end.However, where is the future of the Chengguo Mansion in the future?
