Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 824 Ah San's Spiritual Victory Method
On the southeast defense line of the Ming Dynasty, a massive offensive and defensive battle is being staged.

Tens of thousands of Ming troops resisted the attack of the 50 troops of the Mughal Empire, and the battle was quite tragic.

Thousands of cannons from both sides have fired at each other for several rounds, and the battlefield is still full of gunfire, and the rockets are constantly being thrown like a rain of fire.

At this moment, raging fires were ignited on the top and bottom of the city wall, and the casualties on both sides were unknown.

Well, this is just a daydream of Mughal commander Shahshuja.

The soldiers under him did suffer heavy casualties, but the Ming army on the city wall suffered no casualties at all.

Lu Xiangsheng, the Governor of the Great Ming Xi Daying, was a little bit dumbfounded at the moment.

These Ah Sans are really out of their minds. The giant well fence and the giant wooden raft in front of them are already on fire, and more than half of the nearly 30 people who rushed up have been killed or killed. These guys still haven't retreated yet.

Still think the fire is not big enough, right?

Row.

Give you another fire.

He raised his binoculars and scanned the artillerymen of the Mughal Empire who were clumsily loading ammunition, and then ordered decisively: "Order, the catapult throws the kerosene tank at the siege vehicle."

There was a wave of command flags, and another pile of kerosene tanks slammed into the giant siege vehicles on the opposite bank like cannonballs.

This time they didn't even need them to ignite, the hundreds of giant siege vehicles were ignited by the sparks splashed from the giant well behind.

The raging fire burned the other side of the river like purgatory, and the Mughal Empire infantry beside the siege vehicles ran back as if fleeing for their lives.

The Mughal Empire infantry on those giant well rails couldn't stand the roasting, and jumped down desperately. I don't know how many of them broke their arms and legs.

There is no way, missing arms and legs is better than being burned alive!
The situation on the battlefield at this moment was already quite tragic, but Shahshuja trembled with excitement as if he had taken the wrong medicine.

Because the flags of thousands of artillery ammunition loaded are being raised one by one, they can fire and bombard the city wall again.

Finally, the ready banner was raised.

He immediately roared like having an epileptic seizure: "Fire!"

"Booming", there was another violent artillery roar, and thousands of shells smashed into the city wall, and the Ming army lost thousands of troops.

Well, it's just him daydreaming.

Lu Xiangsheng was a little bit annoyed by this group of psychopaths.

You are not done yet, are you?

It's only three things, I've let you bombard me for three rounds, you should get out!
He came out from behind the bunker a little annoyed, and raised his binoculars to carefully measure the distance of the artillery on the opposite side, and then ordered decisively: "Order, all the [-]-jin Thor cannons will be raised by nine degrees, and fire a salvo."

The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion quickly pushed the [-]-jin Thor cannon out from behind the cover, quickly adjusted the angle, loaded the shells, and fired a salvo.

"Booming", there was a loud noise, and the Mughal Empire infantry who were trying to pull out the guns were smashed to pieces, causing heavy casualties, and some artillery were even smashed and fell from the gun mounts.

Seeing this, Shahshuja couldn't help being stunned.

To be honest, he doesn't care if all the siege equipment in front of him is burned up, they are worthless, just cut down more trees to build them.

However, the cannons were different. They cost hundreds of pounds of silver each, and he relied on these cannons to "kill" the Ming army.

How to do it?

While he was hesitating, there was another violent artillery roar, the casualties of the artillery were even greater, and more artillery were smashed to the ground.

It can't go on like this!
He hesitated for a moment, but still ordered helplessly: "Order, everyone retreats."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooo" I don't know what it blew, and the Mughal Empire infantry in front immediately rushed backwards as if they were amnesty.

An army of 50 rushed up, but less than 30 escaped.

Thousands of giant siege engines were either smashed or burned.

Shahshuja didn't care much about these, he only cared about whether the artillery was smashed or not.

After the tens of thousands of surviving artillerymen pulled back thousands of cannons, he immediately ran over with Captain White and a group of British instructors in a hurry.

Fortunately, of the [-] or so cannons, only a dozen were damaged, and the others were still usable.

At this moment, Taichang was also racing his horse towards the city wall in a hurry.

He had seen the fireworks on the city wall a long time ago, and he had heard the roar of the rumbling artillery. He didn't know what the city wall was like, so he was anxious!

Fortunately, when he ran into the fortress in the middle, the infantry of the Shenji Battalion who were on rest were still there, and none of them were injured, and their uniforms were also very neat.

This proves that there is no major problem on the city wall, at least the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion who need these replacements have not been hit to replace the injured soldiers.

He was about to run towards the city wall, but the general of the Shenji Battalion guarding the steps hurriedly cupped his hands to dissuade him: "Your Majesty, the Mughal Empire also has artillery, it's dangerous up there!"

Uh, this.

Taichang thought for a while, but stopped in his tracks.

He really didn't have to take such a risk.

Because he also has a good understanding of the performance of artillery.

The Mughal Empire and the Anti-Habsburg Alliance bought front-loading artillery, and it took a long time to load ammunition.

At this moment, there was no sound inside or outside the city wall, which proved that people might be loading ammunition.

If he ran up at this time, he might just meet someone who fired and fired, which is indeed a bit dangerous.

It's better to wait a while, and then go up after a round of salvo, then there will be no danger.

What is unexpected is that he has been standing below for a cup of tea, and there is still no sound inside or outside the city wall.

What is going on here?
He thought for a while, then waved his hand and said, "Sigong, send someone up to check on the situation."

Hearing this, Luo Sigong quickly waved to a personal guard.

The personal guard quickly ran up the city wall.

After a while, he ran down and bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the Mughal Empire army has already begun to retreat. Lord Lu said it's all right, you can go up."

Uh, retreat now?
How long have you been playing?
They have millions of people, even if they cheated 20, they still have at least 80.

An army of 80 was repelled after such a little effort?
Taichang stepped up to the city wall with a face full of curiosity, and couldn't help being stunned.

The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion on the city wall were fine.

They were putting out the fire with buckets.

Seeing that the emperor was stunned, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly went up to meet him and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?"

Taichang said in disbelief, "There were no casualties on the soldiers on the city wall?"

Lu Xiangsheng said without hesitation: "Yes, Your Majesty, I haven't received any reports of casualties yet."

What is going on here?
Taichang asked curiously again: "Why do I look from afar as if the city walls are ablaze?"

Lu Xiangsheng quickly explained: "Your Majesty, what you saw should not be the fire on the city wall, but the fire in front of the city wall. I didn't notice it for a while and asked them to put the ladder against the city wall. The ladder was set on fire against the city wall." , so it looks like the city walls are on fire."

It turned out to be like this, Taichang walked quickly to the arrow stack, and looked down with his head.

Good fellow, the burning rafts on the river are all huddled together.

Without human control, these wooden rafts were washed around by the current, and many of them collided.

He looked up at the other side of the river, and it was as if a wall of fire had been erected there, a huge fire.

Ah San, is this sending firewood?

He couldn't help but shook his head, then boarded the fort in the middle, and moved to the giant telescope to scan.

At this moment, all Ah San within five miles from the city wall ran away, leaving only some smashed giant siege equipment and scattered corpses.

Those Ah San who fled back seemed to be forming a team five or six miles away, so densely packed, it was hard to tell how many people there were.

He scanned carefully for a while, then raised his head and asked, "How about Ah San's casualties?"

Lu Xiangsheng reckoned: "I can't count the exact number of injuries, but the number of casualties should be no less than 20."

There are more than [-] people here, and there are more than [-] people sneaking behind, Ah San has almost lost more than half of it in this wave.

It seems that the fight was a bit too hard, so they won't be scared to withdraw their troops, right?

His worries seemed a little unnecessary.

Shahshuja rode his horse and galloped to the big tent of the Chinese army with a face full of excitement, walked in excitedly and cupped his hands and said, "I have killed almost half of the Ming army guarding the city, Father Khan."

Taichang and Lu Xiangsheng would probably drop their jaws in shock when they heard this.

This kid is too good at blowing, right?
Shah Jahan heard the words, but asked with great interest: "Oh, how did you kill half of the Ming army defending the city?"

Shahshuja proudly boasted based on the fantasy in his mind: "Our thousands of artillery bombarded the city wall for three rounds. Each round of more than 1000 shells can at least kill thousands of Ming soldiers. The estimated damage is even worse. many.

The casualties of the Ming army in these three rounds exceeded [-].

In addition, our giant mobile arrow towers shot hundreds of thousands of rockets at the city wall. Even if ten rockets can only hit one Ming army, at least two to thirty thousand Ming soldiers will be killed, and they will be injured and burned. is estimated to be more.

On the city wall, it is estimated that there were at most [-] Ming troops. We caused them to suffer [-] to [-] casualties, and about [-] to [-] should be killed. "

very good!

Shah Jahan couldn't help but gratified: "You have made a great contribution this time. How is it? How about our casualties?"

Uh, this.

Shahshuja thought for a while, and then said vaguely: "When we retreated, only about 30 people came back. It is estimated that many people were set on fire because of the giant siege raft, and they jumped into the river and were washed away by the water. I don't know. How much can swim back."

This guy is really good at lying about the military situation.

According to what he said, the casualties of the siege infantry may only be tens of thousands, and the others were washed away in the water by themselves. Even if they died, he can't be blamed.

In other words, their battle losses were similar to those of the Ming soldiers defending the city.

At least, that's pretty much what he meant.

This is Ah San's spiritual victory method!
For example, the bridge that Ah San just built was broken by the wind. It was because the wind was too strong, not their problem.

For another example, the dam just built by Ah San collapsed as soon as it was filled with water. It was because of too much water pressure, and it was not their problem.

Ah San's executives still love to hear this!
Hearing this, Shah Jahan nodded repeatedly and said, "Very well, you can stay here tonight. With such a big victory, we have to celebrate."

It's a big win!

Is a fantasy victory a victory?

Not to mention, this kind of victory Ah San really counts.

This is not a joke.

They often won inexplicably, and celebrated wildly, making their enemies puzzled!
