Chapter 413
After hearing Zhang Heng's words, Mao Wenlong's complexion improved.

The tactics of the Tartars digging tunnels and ditches are really effective against firearms. Last night's battle was a good example. If the Tartars dug the tunnels to the bottom of the city, the destruction of the city is really just around the corner.

"Staff Zhang, do you have a unique trick?" Mao Wenlong asked immediately. Up to now, Mao Wenlong has seen this Staff Officer Zhang more and more pleasing to the eye. He has already regarded this Staff Officer as one of his own. It's just different.

"Hehe, Commander, in fact, there is no magic trick. Commander, did you forget the Ermao from last night? That's the person who throws the grenade very accurately. The Commander just needs to select this kind of person from the whole army to form a team." Elite soldiers who specialize in throwing grenades, it will take a few days to dig trenches with the Tartars, so practice hard. Once the Tartars dig the trenches within fifty steps of us, preferably thirty steps, I think it will be safe to walk in the trenches. Let's give him a big surprise again, and let this grenade-throwing elite soldier throw hundreds of grenades into the trench where he transported his troops at the same time, I believe it will be very exciting." Zhang Heng explained with a smile.

"Staff Zhang is really a clever plan, as expected he came from the staff department." Mao Wenlong squinted his eyes, stroked his beard, and laughed.The man named Er Mao last night also gave him a very good impression, especially the grenades that kept flying out of his hand, which impressed Mao Wenlong very deeply, especially the accuracy of throwing the grenade, which is really amazing. The crowd of people flew in and out, and the already crumbling north wall immediately turned the corner. Speaking of Ermao, Mao Wenlong already knew what Zhang Heng was up to.

"...Okay, as Staff Officer Zhang said, we will select master grenade-throwing experts from all over Zhenjiang Fort to form an elite grenade thrower. According to Staff Officer Zhang, this elite army has a ready-made leader, that is Ermao. It’s him. Throwing accurately, people being obedient and wrong, good luck, fighting to the death, and making great contributions, now, it’s no problem to be the general flag.” Mao Wenlong was quite impressed with the arms last night, A person's hand, one thick, one thin, this is not a disease, but thrown out by throwing a grenade, it can be seen that the situation at that time, in order to explode, Ermao could risk his life, otherwise, how could there be a hand Thick, one thin?Don't people know pain?

Hearing his commander-in-chief talk about the Ermao, all the generals stretched out their thumbs and said good words. The continuous grenades that flew out last night left a deep impression on many people. At that time, the Tartars The elites have already approached the northern enclosure, and if they work harder, they will be able to break into the enclosure. Once the Tartars break into the enclosure, the Zhenjiang Fort will be in danger. Zhenjiang Fort is a nine-linked city with nine large and small enclosures. Together, once one of the enclosures is broken, the defensive power of the other enclosures will be greatly reduced. With tens of thousands of Tartars attacking the city, it will be difficult for Zhenjiang Fort to withstand the steady stream of Tartars.Therefore, at the critical moment, the power of this Ermao broke out and reversed the situation on the battlefield.

"Master Zhang, what should we do if the Tartars dig a tunnel?" Someone shouted.

"Yes! Staff Zhang, how should we deal with this?" Mao Wenlong also asked, if this problem is not resolved, Zhenjiang Fort will be really dangerous.

"Hehe, that's no problem. As long as you listen to it all over the city, you can know where the tartars are digging tunnels and where they are. This matter is all on my shoulders." Zhang Heng assured himself with a smile.

"Okay, since Staff Officer Zhang has already prepared, then this matter will be handed over to Staff Officer Zhang." Mao Wenlong said happily.

Zhang Heng thought for a while, and then said: "Commander, I think that since the cannons have been exposed, there is no need to hide them anymore. Now that the Tartars are digging trenches, Commander, it is better to bombard them with cannons. , so that the Tartars can't dig trenches with peace of mind." Zhang Heng suggested again.

"Okay! Let's do as Staff Officer Zhang said, and let the tartars taste the power of our cannon..." Mao Wenlong agreed immediately without thinking too much.

……

Not long after, the cannons on Zhenjiang Fort began to fire.

Apart from last night's artillery battle, this is the first time that Zhenjiang Fort has fired artillery during the day. Prior to this, in order to hide its strength, Zhenjiang Fort did not take out cannons to bombard it, so that most of the Tatars forgot that Zhenjiang Fort still has cannons. There are many people walking back and forth unscrupulously one mile away from Zhenjiang Fort.

The sound of shelling from Zhenjiang Fort in the distance awakened the tartars who had been paralyzed for many days. Cannons can actually hit very far, especially Hongyi cannons, which can hit farther than these days. Can hit things within three hundred steps.

"Ah..." There was a miserable cry, which made people's hair stand on end. The Tartars who were digging their heads heard the seer, and then realized that the blood groove "ploughed" by a cannon was right in front of their eyes.

From the time the cannonball landed, someone was hit. The first person who was hit had no time to shout, and was already smashed into pieces by the cannon. A human body could not block the potential energy of the cannon. .1 later, it penetrated the second person, and the second person was also beaten to pieces before he could yell out a sound. The road was plowed out like this, and it didn't hit the ground until the potential energy of the shell was exhausted.

Some wounded Tartars had time to cry out, seeing that half of their bodies had been smashed to pieces, their terrified shouts were enough to make the hair stand on end.

"Help me, save me..." a tartar whose lower half of his body had been knocked off screamed miserably, and stretched out his hand to ask for help from a tartar not far away. The people who were beaten out couldn't help but retreat, as if this person was an evil spirit crawling out of hell, and the white leg bones looked particularly oozing under the sunlight.

After a few moments, the miserable voice lost its strength, and only the babbling without knowing why was left, and then, even the babbling was gone.

……

Houjin sweat account.

"Report..."

"What's the matter? Are you so crazy?" Huang Taiji was discussing something on the sand table, when he heard a fearful voice outside the tent, he immediately shouted.

"Master, it's not good, Zhenjiang Fort was shot, and several coats were killed." A servant said in fear.

"Is there such a fuss about the death of a few coats?" Huang Taiji asked angrily.

"Back to master, that person is dead, it's too intrusive..." The more the slave spoke, the lower his voice.

Just as he was talking, there was another movement outside the tent.

"Reporting to the Great Khan, Fan Wencheng, the study official, asks for an audience." Another servant's voice came from outside.

"See." Huang Taiji put away his anger.

It was Fan Wencheng who came.

"Khan, the Ming Dynasty fired artillery, and several people have been injured. It may not be appropriate for such a tens of thousands of people to gather to dig trenches. It has become a living target for the Ming Dynasty. It is better to dig after dark, otherwise, it will affect morale. The damage is too serious." Fan Wencheng saw the artillery fire on the Zhenjiang Fort, and saw that he had hit the people who were digging a hole, so he went to check immediately. The bloody scene made Fan Wencheng feel that something was wrong. The trenches were dug quickly, but it was difficult for the gunners of the Ming Dynasty to miss them. Although not many people were killed, the damage to morale was really serious. Anyone who saw the blood grooves made by the cannons , have to be afraid, a mile is not a safe place.

"Really? Then don't dig for now. If you want to dig, start digging from the ravine. I am careless, but I forgot. There were red cannons in the Ming Dynasty. This kind of cannon can shoot at least four or five miles." Huang Taiji He patted his forehead, looking like he just remembered.

"Wen Cheng obeys, let's do it now." Fan Wencheng agreed and prepared to go out.

"No, wait for Xiandou, Ben Khan still has something to discuss with Xiandou, let the servants go about passing orders." Huang Taiji said.

"Zha..." Fan Wencheng lowered his head in response.A servant also responded, and quickly ran to deliver the order.

……

"it is good!"

In Zhenjiang Fort, in front of the two red cannons, everyone shouted hello in unison.It was the red cannon that hit the tartar and plowed a bloody road.

"Master!" Zhang Heng's spirit is still high, and he hasn't rested since last night. At this time, many people have gone to rest, but he is still full of energy to let the Hongyi Cannon fire. .

"My lord, I'm overwhelmed. There are so many people around, it's hard for the little ones to let go!" said a gunner, a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha!" Zhang Heng laughed. Indeed, tens of thousands of Tartars dug a pit together. Although the scene was a bit scary, the results of this firing were also frighteningly good. Zhang Heng saw through the binoculars the blood trough that was plowed out. It can be seen clearly, and even the miserable screams of the people who have been shot seem to be audible.

"Okay! Let's go ahead and put it in places where there are a lot of Tartars, especially where the leaders of the Tartars are. Let the Tartars see how powerful we are. Hehe, we don't fire, but the Tartars will shoot us at Zhenjiang Fort." I completely forgot about the cannon, and in broad daylight, you dare to dig a hole so boldly... Fight hard, and I will reward you in front of the commander..." Zhang Heng said still quite excitedly.

"Yes, my little one obeys..." those gunners also happily agreed.

Before firing two cannonballs, the Tartars began to gather and stopped digging holes.

"My lord, my lord, the Tartars have escaped..." the sharp-eyed gunner immediately shouted.

Zhang Heng has already seen it, how many shots have been fired?Tartars scared away?This kind of cannon-shooting mosquito game is coming to an end so soon, it's really boring and depressing.

Watching the circle of Tartars recede, bursts of shouts erupted from Zhenjiang Fort.

……

"Xiantai, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to just dig trenches for this siege plan! After thinking about it, Benhan felt that the trenches and tunnels alone might not be enough to deal with Zhenjiang Fort. Mao Wenlong dared to use a few thousand I am afraid that people have already made preparations for the danger of Zhenjiang Fort! Ben Khan is worried that these two points alone may not be enough to make things happen! The so-called precautions, Ben Khan thinks that we have to think of other ways!" Huang Taiji looked worried. The cannon of Zhenjiang Fort just now suddenly gave him a bad feeling, thinking that his strategy of besieging and capturing Zhenjiang Fort by means of trenches and tunnels might not work.

Fan Wencheng lowered his head and fixed his eyes on the sand table. In the middle of the sand table was Zhenjiang Fort.

Fan Wencheng thought for a long time, and said: "Khan, indeed, this Zhenjiang Fort is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There are mountains on the north, rivers on the south, and rivers not far from the east. They are not suitable for digging tunnels. There is only a piece of land in the west. You can dig a tunnel close to Zhenjiang Fort. In this way, it will be much easier for Zhenjiang Fort to guard against us. Now that the tunnel has not been dug, I really don’t know if it will work. I really have to make another plan. I’m afraid to dig a tunnel just by this. Sometimes you will inevitably be disappointed..." Fan Wencheng thought about Huang Taiji's words for a while, and then said some words buried in his heart. Fan Wencheng didn't intend to say these words at all. Taboo, unless it is a last resort, they will not do things that they think are "harmful to the peace". Those who are engaged in counselors think that if they do too much of this kind of thing, they will have a short lifespan and die a good death. It hurts the harmony of the sky" and shortens Yang's life. However, since my master asked about it today, I can't hide it.

"What do you mean by Xiandou? Is there a coup?" Huang Taiji has been thinking hard about how to crack Zhenjiang Fort. However, thinking of the thunder and hell-like flames, Huang Taiji feels that there is really no good way except to fill it with human life.

"Khan, there is a plan. Wencheng doesn't know whether to say it or not." Fan Wencheng thought for a long time, and finally said it. Although this matter will shorten his life, but that is a matter of the future, let's go first Let's talk after passing this level.

"Oh, hehe, does Xiandou have a clever plan to teach Ben Khan?" Huang Taiji said with a smile.

"Damn Khan, Wen Cheng asked something that shouldn't be asked, Khan thinks, what is the best way to use Wenlong's hand grenade?" Fan Wencheng seemed to have finally made up his mind and started planning for his master. , Such heartfelt warnings as short lifespan have long been thrown aside.

Huang Taiji thought for a while, and said: "Xiandou! When it comes to the grenade of Poomao Wenlong, Ben Khan really can't think of a way. Ben Khan thinks that there is no good way except to use human life. I can't afford it!" Huang Taiji thought for a while, and then came to the conclusion that if he was not afraid of casualties, he could win Zhenjiang Fort with tens of thousands, or even 20 or [-] casualties. Well, there are only [-] people in this big gold, and [-]% of them went all at once, and the empress dowager didn't dare to make such a determination.

"Khan, I can't afford it, but besides me, isn't there someone here who can fill it in? As long as Mao Wenlong's grenades are exhausted, Zhenjiang Fort will be useless, and I can do it all." Drum down." Fan Wencheng's voice resounded faintly in the sweat tent, and Fan Wencheng's finger pointed to a place on the sand table.

"Here?" Huang Taiji followed Fan Wencheng's fingers and fixed his eyes on a certain place on the sand table.

"Khan, it's here!" Fan Wencheng said again with a cold voice.

"Ben Khan understands... What Xiandou means is to draw North Koreans to fill in?" Huang Taiji looked at the place and understood what Fan Wencheng meant. The place Fan Wencheng was referring to was across the Yalu River and belonged to North Korea. China, and pulling people from there naturally means using the lives of North Koreans to fill the hole in Zhenjiang Fort.

"Yes! Great Khan, North Korea has already belonged to my Dajin. Now, it's time for North Korea to contribute to my Dajin. It is natural to organize some rebels to help my Dajin attack the city." Fan Wencheng said confidently. What is exposed in the middle is bursts of murderous intent.

Huang Taiji thought for a while, hesitantly, and said: "Xiandou, this Khan can't make up his mind!" Huang Taiji hesitated quite a bit, this North Korea will not be easy to surrender, tearing a hole in the encirclement of the Ming Dynasty, and many things can only be released It is easier for Dajin to survive through North Korea’s supplement. If the relationship with North Korea is too rigid, then the encirclement circle of the Ming Dynasty will be closed again. That will be quite detrimental to the survival of Dajin. North Korea is to the east, the sea is to the south, Mao Wenlong is to the south, Yuan Chonghuan and Lin Danhan are to the west, and needless to say to the north, Dajin is now surrounded by iron barrels.

"Great Khan... organized a group of Korean rebels. At night, they drilled through the trenches to the vicinity of Zhenjiang Fort. They kept clamoring and appeared from time to time. The city wall seemed to look like people, and they would definitely come down in large numbers. Throwing a grenade, the consumption of the grenade will definitely double, and it only takes a few days for the profuse Khan to run out of grenades in Zhenjiang Fort. Without the grenades, how could Mao Wenlong hold it with those thousands of people?" Fan Wencheng continued to talk about the benefits of using North Koreans to fill the hole in Zhenjiang Fort.

Huang Taiji hesitated even more. Is it strategic or tactical?It is difficult to make a choice. In the long run, it is undoubtedly a strategic priority. However, the Zhenjiang Fort has become a bone that is difficult to crack down. If the Zhenjiang Fort can be chewed down as soon as possible, it will undoubtedly be a good deal.

"Great Khan, North Korea has surrendered to me, Dajin. My Dajin ordered North Korea to organize a rebel army to assist my Dajin. It’s not about occupying it, so why not?” Fan Wencheng said indifferently as if it was a matter of course.

Huang Taiji knew what Fan Wencheng meant. The so-called North Korean rebels, in fact, just captured some North Korean civilians, and then forced them to go down to the city at night to make noise, deliberately expose them, and then lured them to throw grenades on the city wall, so as to consume Zhenjiang Fort as soon as possible. Grenades, that's all. As for the excuses and reasons, of course they are also very grand.only……

"... Big Khan, even if Big Khan doesn't organize the North Korean rebel army, then North Korea, I'm afraid, has already had a second heart. The news from the capital of the Ming Dynasty is that the Emperor Ming is going to attack North Korea. We are close to the Ming Dynasty, Da Khan, we are organizing a rebel army at this time, I am afraid that the enemy will be captured soon, why not?" Fan Wencheng continued to persuade Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji was hesitating, he had been hesitating about his relationship with North Korea. Hearing Fan Wencheng's last words, he no longer hesitated in his heart. According to inside information from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty had already planned to attack North Korea. So, sooner or later, North Korea would not be able to keep it. Yes, if this is the case, then don't blame me for catching North Koreans to fill the hole.

"Okay! Wen Cheng, it's settled like this. According to Wen Cheng, organize the North Korean rebel army." Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and decided to fill the hole with North Koreans.It's better to fill a hole with someone else's life than to fill it with your own.

　[A few words, some book friends said that the tactics of digging tunnels and trenches are too advanced?Goldfinger for Tartars?Sadist!In fact, no, in history, in the battle of Daling River four years later, Hou Jin used the tactics of digging trenches to besiege Daling River City.As a result, the Ming Dynasty's reinforcements were wiped out, Zu Dashou and others were forced to surrender, and the Ming Dynasty suffered another huge defeat outside the pass. 】
