Chapter 1727 Decisive Battle with Shangdang Fourteen
Mu Jing went to the battlefield at the age of 12, and he has gone all the way. In terms of talent, he is not very good, but he has courage, and he has fought a lot of battles.

Sometimes the battlefield is about to take risks.

A seemingly dangerous battle may not necessarily be dangerous. Perhaps this is an opportunity, a chance for the Ming court to end once and for all.

Of course, such an opportunity also comes with great risks.

Once something goes wrong.

Then his Mujing will even be ruined in this battle, after all, there will be no eggs under the nest, and if he loses the battle, he may not be able to get out.

"Come on!"

"Your Majesty!" Jin Jiu walked in.

"Send someone to send an order to tell the Artillery Army Zhonglang General Huangfu Jianshou to come and see me immediately!"

"promise!"

Jin Jiu bowed his hands to accept the order, and quickly sent someone to deliver the order. Half an hour later, Huangfu Jianshou, who was wearing a battle armor and hurried on his feet, walked into the hall of the government office.

There was no one else in the lobby, not even a counselor.

Only Mujing opened his hands and looked down on the sand table.

"The last general, Huangfu Jianshou, pays homage to His Majesty!"

Huangfu Jianshou bowed his hands in salute.

In the state of wearing a battle armor, all you need to do is a military salute, and you don't need to have too much sense of etiquette.

"Has the baggage of the Artillery Army been brought up?"

"When Your Majesty broke up the camp, our logistics and supply battalion had already transported all the artillery and shells into Shangdang, but we were afraid of being targeted, so the battalions were transported separately, in the name of caravans, even if the enemy spies, unless Take off the cloth on the carriage, otherwise it is impossible to find our artillery!"

Huangfu Jianshou said: "Currently all the battalions are outside the city, each find a place to set up camp!"

"You did a great job!"

Mu Jing nodded: "At first, I thought you couldn't keep up, and wanted to send troops to reinforce you. The speed of your artillery army is not bad!"

"The main thing is that the craftsmen of the Academy of Science and Technology are very powerful. Their heads are out of tune, and they have come up with many ways to help us transport. Even on the mountain road, they can be disassembled and transported separately, so this is for us. Otherwise, it would definitely be a very big project to transport the artillery to the north!" Huangfu Jianshou said.

Some seemingly inconspicuous gadgets can often determine their transportation speed in the end. It is precisely because of the help of those people from Hongdu Science and Technology Institute that he successfully completed the task.

"Has your artillery tactics improved?"

Mujing asked again.

"Currently, artillery is a new type of weapon. Even if the power is obtained through experiments, and then the tactics are developed based on it, it still needs to be tested on the battlefield!"

Huangfu Jianshou has become more and more mature. Although he doesn't have the bearing of his father Huangfusong, the son of a famous general has been influenced by the art of war since he was a child, so he still has some talent.

"When I was in Yudu, I once discussed artillery tactics with General Huang Zhong of the Privy Council, Xi Zhicai to participate in politics, and Minister Chen Gong!"

"We are more looking forward to a cooperation between the artillery army, cavalry, and infantry. The artillery army can exert great lethality, tear apart the enemy's battle formation, and defeat the enemy's fighting spirit. It is possible to directly defeat the enemy, not to mention whether we have such sufficient artillery and shells. On the battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people are fighting, and hundreds of miles of entangled fronts, even if we have, I am afraid we cannot be so unscrupulous , One shot down, countless casualties, if there is a comprehensive bombardment, even hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be buried on the ground together, in this way, it is too tragic and too hurt Tianhe!"

Mu Jing smiled when he heard the words, for him, the words sounded good, wars belong to wars, if it's like Bai Qi, killing hundreds of thousands, he can't do it.

He is not a human butcher.

Wars are for political purposes, and killing also has a purpose. If you rely on artillery to kill so recklessly, it is no different from a lunatic.

He wants to be the emperor, to rule the world, not to kill people, these are the labor force, the labor force that Ming wants to prosper in the future.

Huangfu Jianshou continued: "Your Majesty, we think it is best for the Artillery Army to be the main destroyer, but the final battle must be handed over to the main force, but the cooperation between each other must be good, so that we can win the battlefield with the least casualties. !"

"Have you cooperated?" Mu Jing asked after being silent for a while.

"no!"

"That is to say, this is the first battle?" Mu Jing hesitated.

"After all, this is the second time our artillery is on the battlefield. To be honest, no matter how good the weapon is, it needs to be tested on the battlefield. It is impossible to imagine its suitable position out of thin air!"

Huangfu Jianshou smiled wryly: "As the general of the Artillery Army, the only thing I think about now is to find the position of our Artillery Army through war, so that we can cooperate with the main force!"

Mujing can understand.

Any tactic needs countless trials before it can become a tactic. Artillery has just appeared on this side of the battlefield, so how can it become the mainstream of warfare so easily.

You must be familiar with it and use it more, so that people can see the importance of artillery and make people use artillery more skillfully.

"I don't care about these!"

Mu Jing waved his hand, he is the emperor, he can be self-willed, as the saying goes, the boss can kill countless subordinates with one mouth, now he only needs one mouth, the following matters are left to the people below, and he doesn't need to worry about them.

He said in a low voice: "Huangfu, you are the general of the Artillery Army, and the Artillery Army is my trump card and the only thing I can rely on to win this battle, so I have pinned all my hopes on you , you must not have any accidents, you must win!"

"Yes!"

Huangfu Jianshou gritted his teeth and nodded in response.

Mu Jing is right, he is the general of the artillery army, hope is on the artillery army, that is to say, on him, he must win, otherwise he can only accept the crime.

"How many battalions are there for the first-generation artillery?" Mu Jing asked.

The second generation of artillery has replaced the first generation, but because the war broke out too fast, there was no complete refit.

Therefore, there are still many first-generation artillery in the artillery army.

"One!"

"One?"

"That's right!" Huangfu Jianshou said: "Only the first battalion is left, and the rest of the battalions have already changed their outfits. If we give us another month, we may be able to complete the outfit change, but we are in a hurry to go to the battlefield, so Just stop changing!"

"One battalion is fine!" Mu Jing smiled and said, "From now on, the Artillery Army will raise its flag, and there is no need to hide it, but only the first battalion is allowed to be exposed to everyone's sight. The rest of the battalions must not move, and must not be discovered by anyone, including their artillery!"

"Your Majesty, you mean to show up?"

Huangfu Jianshou frowned a little.

After hiding for so long, showing up on my own initiative, isn't it a bit of a waste of all previous efforts.

"Who told you to take the initiative? It's just that you were inadvertently discovered by the enemy!" Mu Jing squinted his eyes, and a flash of light flashed across them, and he had already begun to circle the entire strategic deployment in his heart. Already ready to fight to the death, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.

"Then how about I join the battle?"

Huangfu Jianshou said: "Inadvertently let them find out, why not take the initiative to join the battle, lead the first battalion, and throw the artillery of the first battalion into the battlefield!"

"It's okay!"

Mujing thought for a while, and said, "Well, you will immediately lead the first battalion back to Huguan!"

"Huguan?" Huangfu Jianshou frowned.

"Why Huguan?"

He wanted to ask some questions.

"Huguan still has the strength of two battalions of the Zhaoming First Army. Huguan is the pass between us and Hanoi, and it is also the front line for us to meet the enemy!"

Pointing at Huguan, Mu Jing said, "A big battle might break out here. It's hard to say exactly how tragic it will be, but if the first battalion appears, then even if the enemy has ten times as many troops, at least you can guarantee Withdraw the main force!"

"withdraw?"

Huangfu Jianshou stared: "It's not easy for the Artillery Army to retreat, our speed is too slow!"

"When you have to, blow up all the artillery of the first battalion, but man, you must bring it back to me. Every artillery army has been cultivated by us through hard work. They are much more important than artillery! "

Mujing said.

Huangfu Jianshou understood a little bit, the first battalion has become a pawn, and it is also a discarded piece to lure the enemy into being fooled. Once Huguan is attacked by the enemy, the first battalion must show its strength, and after revealing its strength, We must give up, and what we give up is the artillery, not the generals.

Artillery is the most precious. As long as they are brought back, the first battalion can be rebuilt. Besides, the artillery of the first battalion needs to be given up because it is supposed to be replaced.

Although he couldn't figure out Mujing's mind.

But Mu Jing's order, he will carry out without reservation, he cupped his hands and asked: "What if the other generals don't allow me to destroy the artillery?"

"You are General Zhonglang, I will give you a Jingping Order, as if I were here in person!"

Mu Jing thought for a while, Huangfu Jianshou's status is sufficient, but his qualifications are insufficient. In the army, sometimes seniority is very important. Some people look down on surrendered generals, while others look down on young generals, so sometimes, they have to do something to protect them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Huangfu Jianshou bowed his hand to receive the badge, and said: "The final general will rush to Huguan immediately!"

"Don't you ask what the enemy is?"

"I believe your majesty, if your majesty said that there are enemies, then there must be Huguan, where the enemies will attack. From Hanoi, it will not be the army of Yan, only the army of Wei will be left!"

Huangfu Jianshou is not stupid.

"clever!"

Mu Jing said: "I won't tell you about many things, but after you arrive at Huguan, you have to be vigilant, always be vigilant, you can lose Huguan, but when you lose it is very particular, I won't allow Huguan The loss is too fast, at least General Zhang Liao must buy some time!"

He still pinned his hopes on Zhang Liao.

If Zhang Liao can defeat Liu Bei in a short period of time, then this battle will be great, otherwise, when the time comes, they can only gather together and fight.

Under such a strategy, winning the Ming army will suffer a lot.

But on the battlefield, no luck is allowed. As long as Huguan cannot be defended, the Ming army must change its strategic deployment. This is a fact.

So how long Huguan can hold Wei Jun is the key.

Shangdang is already the place of decisive battle. In this place, the Ming army has no sense of security, and even their retreat is cut off.

Even if Li Yan can bring back all the food and grass in Hanoi, he may not be able to sustain his 10,000+ army for many days if he raids Shangdang again.

There was no need for them to force this battle, the Ming army would have to settle the battle quickly, the more it dragged on, the more problematic it would be.

"Little general, never let His Majesty down, and the Artillery Army will never let His Majesty down either!"

Huangfu Jianshou bowed his hands and saluted, expressing his firm determination to fight.

front.

Marching official road, located at the foot of a mountain, a small temporary headquarters.

"Where is the Second Army?"

Zhang Liao was wearing battle armor, holding the hilt of the saber in his hand, staring at the marching map with a pair of cold eyes, and his deep and stern voice was full of killing intent.

"We have reached the small road twelve miles away from us on the west side, and then we will go to the Mingzi River. After passing the Mingzi River, we will directly fight the enemy!"

A general replied.

"Order Shamoko!"

Zhang Liao clenched his fists tightly: "Tonight, I must cross the Mingzi River. Tomorrow morning, I want to see him advance twenty miles and defeat the enemy's vanguard!"

"promise!"

The military order was passed down quickly.

"Could you be too anxious?" Xi Zhicai stood beside him, looked at Zhang Liao, and asked.

With this tactical arrangement, he always felt that Zhang Liao was playing too hastily.

"Our encirclement has already been seen by them. Although it may not change anything, if we arrange it in advance, it will waste a lot of our strength!"

Zhang Liao said: "So now, we have to compete with them in speed!"

"A front of 120 miles, how much range can they close!"

Xi Zhicai frowned.

"That can't be counted!"

Zhang Liao shook his head. He pointed to the two directions to the northwest and said, "Although there is a 120-mile battle line between us, they can retreat, and their marching headquarters is not static. , The defensive position is more than the offensive position, we are the offensive side, and the round suffers, or we suffer!"

"But Yan Jun's expression seems to be a feeling of sticking to it?"

Xi Zhicai read the battle reports for the past two days, and he had the illusion that the Yan army was sticking to the line of defense.

"Stand on?"

Zhang Liao smiled: "Maybe, but I can't give him this chance!"

"You mean, he's dragging us!"

Xi Zhi just reacted.

"It may not be dragging us down, maybe the Yan army has some calculations, so they strengthened their defenses and entangled our main force here first!"

Zhang Liao looked at the deployment of troops on the marching map. On one line, the Ming army had pushed in for more than twenty miles, and was less than ten miles away from the nearest Yan army.

With such a distance, the battle should start very quickly.

But in fact there has been a change.

The Yan army stayed still and strengthened the defense line, which made the Ming army's mentality of wanting to fight a little anxious.

This is not a good thing.
