Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 178 The first step in the siege

It's a pity that what Wang Chengen couldn't see was that His Majesty, the man of heaven and man of destiny in his heart, was now shrinking in the ditch and looking out furtively.

Fushun City is only more than 30 miles away from Shengjing City.

When the armored men who were digging the fortifications arrived more than ten miles away from the eastern suburbs of Shengjing City, they could already see groups of people digging crazily in the flatlands from a distance.

After the people on both sides found each other, they stopped their shovels and looked at each other for a while.

Well then.

What to do.

Digging the trench and that's it.

Coincidentally, Zhu Youjian did not issue weapons to the armored men who dug the pit, mainly to guard against these guys mutinying or charging without authorization. Same.

Neither of the two groups responsible for digging the pit had the intention of rushing forward to fight bloody people.

Basically, they are all young men who have been caught.

I didn't even sell my life for a tael of money.

Therefore, the battlefield was surprisingly harmonious. The two sides left a mile of land in front of the formation without touching anyone, and then dug their own.

This harmonious scene was until Shengjing began to send troops into the trenches, and Zhengheiqi also began to stretch the front line, filling the trenches with soldiers and heavy firepower.

Then, the harmonious scene was broken.

Zhu Youjian filled the Zhenghei Banner Firearms Battalion into the trenches, and asked them to rely on the trenches to keep firing at the Jiannu positions. Let alone whether they can produce results, the main thing is not to stop.

Every now and then I hit a shot.

Then, taking advantage of the fact that the front line of the battle could not be changed for a while, and the armored men who were assigned to other directions were also hindered by the trenches, Zhu Youjian began to report his achievements behind the trenches, promoted bannermen from among the armored men, and awarded generals Position.

What miscellaneous generals first sealed off two, and then ordered them to guard the north of the army, control Tieling Guard, Kaiyuan City, and [-] guards.

Afterwards, Zhu Youjian brought together the leaders of the Black Banner tribes such as Jalama, gathered all the elites of the Black Banner Army, and began to attack the trenches east of Shengjing.

The way of attack.

Also trenches.

By digging trenches close to the opponent's trenches, shortening the charge distance, or simply digging the trenches together with the enemy's trenches, everyone will fight in the trenches!

So this so-called attack, not to mention bloody for a while, the two sides haven't even met each other yet.

Of course, Zhu Youjian thinks he has some advantages.

"Your battalion is called Long Xiaoying! Xiangjian, you have to remember, once I dispatch you to launch an attack! Once your battalion rushes into the trenches of Jiannu! Your men will either drive Jiannu out of the trenches , or die in the trenches of Jiannu! There is no possibility of retreating!"

Zhu Youjian clasped Cheng Kuo's shoulders with both hands, with a very serious face.

After nearly two years of accumulation, the number of Longxiao guns and ammunition obtained from Nanjing, as well as the application of technology, finally allowed Zhu Youjian to put aside too many scruples, and armed a team of decent soldiers alone, acting as an assault Elite, or shoulder the important task of suppressing firepower at a quiet distance.

Putting soldiers with weapons that can affect the overall situation into the ever-changing trenches, even if the regulations have been made, Zhu Youjian still thinks that he can use it if he can.

But the psychological construction that should be done must be there!

"But! It's okay for your subordinates to die. I want you to live! You can't die! One of your 20 people dies, it's like taking away my heart! You must protect yourself!"

Cheng Kuo's eyes widened, he sniffed sharply, and knelt down and kowtowed.

"Go out and call Jia Lama and others in!"

Cheng Kuo went out on his knees and lifted the curtain of the big tent, outside were the leaders of the Black Banner Army who were already waiting.

"The leaders are in the account!"

With a yell, Jia Lama and others who had been waiting for a long time rushed in immediately.

Those who have entered and haven't come say a word and salute, Zhu Youjian waved his hand first and said: "Sit down first and then talk."

Karama and others are good at what they do.

As soon as he was seated, Zhu Youjian stood in the middle of the big tent, and spread his hands towards everyone: "In less than two years, I stood outside this big city again, and the situation between us and Jiannu was completely reversed. It is all thanks to the unity of all brothers that we can have this day."

As soon as this remark came out, the leaders could not help but look at each other.

They thought that Wuerte would assign combat tasks immediately.

Seeing everyone's expressions and guessing their thoughts, Zhu Youjian took a chair and sat down quite casually: "But brothers, you should know that even if our results of the battle were not too dependent on slaves and armored men before, we will still be able to do so in the future." , they must be the main force in our army.”

As he spoke, he threw a dried fruit at Jarama and the others.

"In fact, that's why I asked you all to come in. For those armored men who rushed to the forefront during the battle, and those generals, you shouldn't hold prejudice against them. If you can't help it, try not to look at them." them.

There are few people in our family, and it’s not like you don’t understand that even Jiannu knows how to order armored men to die. We have to learn a little bit, and we must accept more armored men and more bannermen. "

With that said, Zhu Youjian opened the curtain of the big tent and pointed in the direction of Shengjing in the distance.

Because it was also the trench where the slaves were built, sparks of sparks were revealed in the dark night.

"Look, with so many people, and so many cities we have conquered, if we don't have the courage to accept more people and treat them as our fellow kinsmen, then how can we replace Jiannu and rule this area land?"

Too many slaves and armored men.

Many are beyond the comprehension of the Black Flag Tribe.

This caused their limited self-confidence to disappear, and they no longer believed that they were the superior party, who could annex and assimilate these slaves and armored men.

"Starting from this battle, I will mix a large number of bannermen from different races into our Black Banner tribes. How much you trust your own people is how you trust these bannermen."

So far, Zhu Youjian has stated his ultimate goal.

Then, without waiting for the leaders to express their opinions, they laughed and said: "As for the battle, the trench warfare must be stinky and long. Your task is not to lead the soldiers around at will, and just wait for my order. I just went to the front trench Look, it may take three days to dig through, during these three days, you should communicate more with the bannermen assigned to your tribe, it is best to treat them as your own warriors."

Karama pondered for a moment, then nodded first.

"I will, Wurt."

"The tribe does need more warriors."

"The test is essential, but we trust your decision."

Zhu Youjian smiled helplessly and shook his head slightly.

Jiannu spent decades assimilating the Jurchen tribe and turning them into a ruling class to stabilize the regime.

Now the savage Jurchen tribes have a pitifully short time.

Regardless of whether Shengjing is won or not, the ever-expanding Zhengheiqi requires them to accept more people selflessly and defenselessly.

I hope they have enough structure so that Zhenghei Banner will not collapse due to the overload expansion of territory and population, or lead to the control of a certain part of the tribe, lack of loyalty and split or something
That will take time.

　I am in a good state tonight. I feel that the influence on my thinking has disappeared. The dizziness and fatigue are minimal. I should try to recover from the third shift tomorrow.
