I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 433: The Praetorian Guards Ask for Battle

There were only 3,300 Chinese soldiers who retreated, that is to say, they lost more than 1,600 people in this wave of general offensive.

This loss was very heavy for the Chinese army. Most of the time, after a battle or even a battle, the total number of casualties was not so many.

And now, just one wave of total attack has reached this number.

More importantly, so many people have been sacrificed, but not many results have been achieved.

At best, it just consumed some of the enemy's artillery shells.

This kind of victory is normal for other armies.

But for Hua Jun, who had been smooth sailing all the way, it was somewhat unacceptable.

After lunch, the generals of the Chinese army gathered again to discuss the next battle plan.

It's obviously not feasible to play like this today.

"How many artillery shells and grenades have been hoarded by the Ming army in this Longyao Mountain? Does the intelligence department have specific figures?"

Tao Dongcheng asked.

The only result of today's battle may be the consumption of a large amount of the enemy's arms.

If the enemy's artillery shells, grenades and other materials are in short supply, then you can find a way to feint several times and consume the enemy several times.

Run out of their arsenal, and it will be much easier to attack positions.

"The exact number is not clear, but in the past few months, Fuzhou has been doing its best to scrap and manufacture arms. Over the past few months, it must have been hoarding a lot."

Wood Zhao, the head of the intelligence department, said.

Although the Ming army was poor and technologically backward, there should be no problem with a few months of reserves to support the consumption of a battle.

"Among the generals of the Ming army who are in charge of garrisoning Longyao, are there any people who are inclined to join our army?"

Tao Dongcheng continued to ask.

It is difficult to break through from the outside, so find a way to split it internally.

If the Ming army were to defect, then everything would be easy.

"There is, but there is, but now the enemy and us are fighting fiercely, and it is not easy to get in touch. Otherwise, I will contact Zheng Zhilong again. As long as Zheng Zhilong is willing to surrender, then Ningde will not have to fight."

Woodshow suggested.

From the information, he learned that Zheng Zhilong still had intentions to surrender. As long as he continued to contact and negotiate, he might be able to negotiate.

"Forget about Zheng Zhilong, we can't afford him to honor the Buddha here."

Wang Dayong interjected, and this suggestion was directly killed.

People in their military are willing to fight to the death, and they are not willing to accept those who try to speak loudly.

The plan to defeat it internally was also rejected, and then everyone raised a lot of opinions.

Some people say that there will be another wave of general attack at any cost, sending the supervising team up, forcing the soldiers to charge up, not allowing them to come down without taking the position, and using human lives to fill a victory.

Others suggested detours. In addition to the road passing through Longyao, there are actually some rural trails that can pass people on other mountains.

Find a few locals to lead the way, and their infantry can bypass the dragon waist and reach the enemy's rear.

This scheme requires detailed study.

At this moment, Xin Zhao of the Praetorian Guard stood up and said, "Perhaps, my department can solve this situation."

His words made everyone's eyes focus on him. After all, even many staff members were helpless at this time. And he, Xin Zhao, a small team leader, actually dared to boast about such a sea mouth.

"Oh, what can you do?"

Tao Dongcheng asked.

Now is the time to brainstorm, he will not exclude Xin Zhao because of his special status.

"The problem now is that a lot of troops need to be invested in the attack, otherwise the attack power will be limited. If too many troops are invested at one time, it will cause crowds to be crowded, and the enemy's artillery will cause more damage.

And our department can just solve this problem. Two thousand people of our department are put on the battlefield. In the process of advancing, dozens or hundreds of people are taken away by artillery at most.

And in front of the enemy's formation, our department can attack without getting too close, avoiding the enemy's grenades. If the enemy army shoots at us, they will definitely suffer.

If they rush out of the position, that is to give up the advantage of the terrain, and we are not at a loss. "

These are the advantages of the breech gun, Xin Zhao said.

"It sounds really nice. Only 2,000 people attacked the position. How much damage can you cause to the enemy? It is estimated that the enemy will not pay attention to you."

Gao Ge questioned.

Xin Zhao lazily took his breath away and explained, "My department is equipped with a new type of gun, and its hit rate is similar to that of a rifled rifle in a sniper company, and we still have the same rate of fire as a flintlock gun.

Do you still need me to demonstrate the lethality of this gun in order for you to understand? "

It combines the accuracy of a rifled gun and the rate of fire of a flintlock gun, but anyone who has played with guns should know how terrifying this is.

"Is it really that powerful?"

Xue Guiren asked.

"Commander Xue doesn't believe it. Now we will show it to Commander Xue."

Xin Zhao said.

Xin Zhao dared to say this, but in fact everyone already believed it.

However, everyone went out of the tent together and came to Xin Zhao's department to observe.

The target was set a hundred and fifty meters away, and then the soldiers began to demonstrate its capabilities.

In fact, the effective range of this gun has reached about 200 meters, but the training of the soldiers is not enough to reach that level.

A group of bigwigs watched the operations of the soldiers, and some people let out surprises from time to time.

Because, they found that the bullet of the gun was stuffed from the back of the gun.

Those who have played with guns know that when shooting a gun, the airtightness of the barrel must be very good, otherwise it will easily explode.

Now that such a hole is opened from the back of the gun, won't it explode?

Several soldiers quickly finished reloading, then aimed at a distant target and pulled the trigger.

Everyone heard the gunshots, but did not see the white smoke.

Because this gun is equipped with smokeless bullets.

This bullet is more difficult and more expensive to manufacture.

Of course, the effect is also very good.

"Two hit the bull's-eye, two scored eight points, and one scored seven points."

The observers in the distance reported the hit data, which surprised many bigwigs again.

Although they all know that these performers are definitely the ones with the highest level in the whole army. However, even if the level of other ordinary soldiers is one level lower than this, it is still quite powerful.

As long as you can hit the enemy 100 meters away, you can make the enemy collapse.

Because at this distance, the Ming army has no power to fight back.

"This is really a magic gun. How many of these guns are produced in the arsenal now?"

Xue Guiren asked, he couldn't wait to equip his subordinates.

With this kind of gun, wouldn't it be possible to hang up all opponents in the future?

"At present, the cost of this gun is extremely expensive. There are only more than 2,000 shots in total, and they are all equipped with Guards."

Xin Zhao said.

When everyone heard it, they were very depressed, such a good thing, but the front-line troops like myself could not use it, but those Guards who had nothing to do all day could be equipped.

However, this kind of thing can be understood by everyone.

The best equipment must be the priority to equip the Praetorian Guards, in order to deter these generals.

After several consecutive shots, everyone has thoroughly understood the performance of this gun, and all of them are praised.

"According to the situation of the independent regiment, we can use the independent regiment as the main force tomorrow, and then add some other troops as auxiliary, and focus on attacking a certain line of defense to complete the breakthrough."

Everyone returned to the tent again, Tao Dongcheng said.

His suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone.

Afterwards, everyone deduced and discussed the specific tactics of tomorrow, and then formulated a detailed battle plan.
