Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

Mao Wenlong in front of him, like many military generals of the Ming Dynasty, had a rough appearance, and his full beard made him look fierce.

According to historical records, Mao Wenlong was deeply trusted by Emperor Tianqi, and this was one of the sources of his rebelliousness.

However, after occupying Dongjiang, this guy began to learn to lie about his military achievements and even killed innocent people to claim credit for his achievements.

So, when he talked about killing a total of 4,700 enemies, Zhu Youxiao looked at him meaningfully and smiled.

"The people killed by Lord Mao this time should all be Jiannu, right?"

Mao Wenlong's body trembled and he quickly crawled to the ground.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

"Dongjiang is a poor place. I did take credit for something before, but I just wanted to get more reward money to buy weapons and armor for my brothers!"

"But I swear that this battle is absolutely not fake!"

"If there are any mistakes or omissions, I am willing to accept any punishment!"

As a general who had been leading troops abroad for many years, he seldom had the opportunity to face the king directly. As for the apocalypse in front of him, his impression of it was still stuck in five years ago.

That was the first time he met Tianqi, and it was also at that time that he received the Imperial Sword bestowed by Tianqi!

At that time, Tianqi was just eighteen years old and was still a childish boy.

But at this time, Zhu Youxiao no longer looked like he used to be!

The purge of the court and the naval battle when he marched south made him gain prestige without realizing it.

This northern expedition against the Jiannu shocked Mao Wenlong from the bottom of his heart!

Ally with Mongolia, drive out North Korea, and instigate Yehenara to rebel!

An army of more than 100,000 can be considered a decisive move for the Ming Dynasty today!

Such courage made him realize that the emperor before him was different from Wanli who had retired behind the scenes, and even more different from the short-lived Taichang!

This is a true king!

Although I don’t know whether he can be compared with Emperor Yongle in the future, he is at least an emperor like Emperor Wuzong!

Zhu Youxiao looked at him with a smile, but did not speak at the first moment.

Getting no response, Mao Wenlong could only kneel there.

At this time, taking credit for something had become an unspoken rule among the border troops.

But putting it openly is a taboo in the military!

He didn't know what result was waiting for him, so he could only wait anxiously.

It was not until an incense stick of time had passed that Zhu Youxiao spoke calmly.

"Get up!"

"Pay more attention in the future. I can forgive the past, but I hope you can keep it in mind."

Mao Wenlong was overjoyed when he heard this and kowtowed three times in a row.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace! I will die for the Ming Dynasty!"

As soon as I stood up, I heard Zhu Youxiao continue.

"I heard that you have a son named Mao Chengdou, is that correct?"

"Yes, Your Majesty is very observant!"

"Your achievements in this battle will be given to your son. Let him go to Shanhe College. After he finishes his studies, I will make other arrangements."

Since Yuan Ba, Niu Zi and others joined the Dongjiang Army, they have learned a lot about what happened in the past six months.

In Shanhe College, there is a department called Military Science!

As long as you are not stupid, you will know what this is for!

He bet his son's future on it. After studying military science, there was no way that he could be just an ordinary soldier!

Therefore, after hearing the news of Zhu Youxiao's death, Mao Wenlong immediately expressed his gratitude again.

Zhu Youxiao climbed up a huge rock, looked towards the direction of Liaoyang City, and asked Sun Kangwang casually.

"Is the artillery array ready?"

The air quality at that time was far beyond what it would be in later times, and without the obstruction of the concrete jungle, he could still clearly see the outline of Liaoyang City even ten miles away.

Sun Kangwang bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, everything is ready and we can fire at any time!"

After hearing this answer, Zhu Youxiao asked him to call Sun Chengzong, Wang Zhichen and Zu Dashou over.

When the three men saw Mao Wenlong, they just greeted him casually and looked at Zhu Youxiao with anticipation.

"Your Majesty, are we about to begin?"

Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Generals, listen to my orders!"

"Right wing troops, attack the west gate!"

"Vanguard troops, attack the south gate!"

"Dongjiang Army, attack the East Gate!"

"Leave now!"

"According to the order!"

Wang Zhichen, Zu Dashou and Mao Wenlong bowed at the same time, then turned around and left.

Soon, three armies, nearly 100,000 people, rushed towards Liaoyang City in a mighty force.

Looking at the dust raised by the army, Zhu Youxiao stood on the boulder and smiled at Sun Chengzong.

"Teacher, haven't you always been curious about why I named those iron racks?"

"Now, it's time for them to appear!"

After saying that, he shouted to the side.

"Lu Xiangsheng!"

"The general is here!"

“Convince people with reason!”

Chapter 282 Go, bring the concubine here and tell her that I want her to watch the meteors

It is a heavy truth that no one has ever seen its true power since the earliest test firing!

Even this expedition was conducted in obscurity.

This time, the four brothers Dorgon, Dodo, Manggurtai and Jirgalang in Liaoyang City finally gave Zhu Youxiao a reason to use them!

Lu Xiangsheng rode his warhorse and galloped all the way to the front of the artillery formation.

"Your Majesty has an order!"

"Target Liaoyang City!"

“Convince people with reason!”

"Fire!"

Huang Degong and others had been waiting for a long time.

Last night, they sent out people, under the protection of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, to approach Liaoyang City to investigate.

In order to ensure accuracy, they even calculated the distance from the artillery array to Liaoyang City to the nearest meter!

At this moment, the angle of the muzzle has been adjusted.

Thirty sets of improved launchers formed three huge "Li" characters in the artillery array, and all of them were loaded, like giant swords pointing obliquely to the sky!

All that’s left is to light the fire!

As soon as Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, Huang Degong shouted loudly to his soldiers.

"The truth can be told, let it go!"

Ever since Zhu Youxiao named the launch pad and rocket "Da Li", Huang Degong and other centurions in charge of operating the artillery gave different nicknames to the launch pads they controlled.

The purpose is to be able to give accurate orders.

In order to cater to Zhu Youxiao's philosophy, these nicknames all come from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching"!

The flag officer holding the torch heard the order and immediately lit the fuse, then led the others to retreat to a safe distance.

Tens of seconds later...

“Swish, swish, swish…”

One rocket after another, trailing flames, flew out of the confines of the launch pad and soared into the sky!

This improved launcher only has seven rounds.

After all the missiles were launched, Huang Degong shouted again.

"Name is good, let go!"

“Swish, swish, swish…”

The same scene reappeared.

Other centurions also issued orders one after another.

"Empty your mind and let go!"

"Fill his belly and let him go!"

"Weaken their will and let them go!"

"Strengthen their bones and release them!"

"Jushandi, let go!"

"Xin Shanyuan, let go!"

"......"

Zhu Youxiao, standing on the boulder, looked at the rockets rising into the sky, and his blood suddenly boiled.

The fear of insufficient firepower was cured on the spot!

It was the first time that Sun Chengzong had seen such a scene. His eyes suddenly widened like copper bells, and his right hand, which was stroking his beard, trembled uncontrollably.

He ignored the pain in his jaw and couldn't help but high-five.

"nice!"

"Happy!"

"It's no exaggeration to call this a national treasure!"

At this time, Wang Zhichen, Zu Dashou and Mao Wenlong, who were marching towards Liaoyang, also saw the rockets passing over their heads.

Although they were far apart, their expressions were surprisingly consistent!

Shock!

accident!

excited!

They had never seen the power of the rocket, but the white smoke that came out from the back of the rocket made them sure that this thing would definitely work!

Watching these rockets flying over his head one by one like in wholesale, Zu Dashou whipped his warhorse hard on its butt and shouted at his guards.

"Speed ​​up! If we're slow, we won't even have time to unsheathe our swords!"

"kill!"

Although Liaoyang City was still several miles away, he had no time to conserve his horsepower.

The important thing is to catch the old slave’s sons!

I just hope they are lucky enough not to be blown into pieces.

Mao Wenlong and Wang Zhichen's reactions were almost exactly the same as his. They all abandoned their infantry and led their cavalry, rushing towards Liaoyang at the fastest speed.
