Chapter 48: Reluctance

Wu Dui, Chen Ju, and the artillerymen are all real people.

Chen Mu said that the artillery fire will not stop, then it will really not stop.

Not to mention the artillery bombardment, which had already led the army to withdraw from Jineng, which was four or five miles away, even Chen Mu heard the indiscriminate bombardment behind him trembling - there were only more than 200 prisoners on the bridge who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and seven or eight hundred people had brought the prisoners back, and the artillery positions were still bombarded.

It wasn't until Chen Mu sent someone to tell Chen Ju on the battlefield that he stopped the cannon, and the root of his ears could be considered safe.

In this battle, nearly 300 artillery shots were fired to the west of the Juma River, and the aiming place did not change, and the iron eggs that were beaten were more than 1,000 catties when added together.

But let the middle-aged and young eunuchs of the anti-Mongolian army go crazy, and when Chen Mu walked on the artillery position again, the two men were radiant, regardless of the arrogance of the civil officials or the obedience of the eunuchs, they all smiled and congratulated Chen Mu on their victory.

Isn't Chen Laoyin just for this purpose, giving Wu Dui and Chen Ju a sense of honor to participate in it, people say that it is a relationship iron that has carried a gun, and then iron can be an iron that has been a cannon?

Just watching Chen Ju caress the cannon body and praise the good quality of Nanyangwei's artillery, Chen Mu's heart hurts a little, just want to pump himself with a big-eared scraper - it's so decent, why don't you keep ordering an artillery piece for the sake of momentum?

These two overseers didn't know much about artillery, and they used their cannons to death, and each cannon fired more than 15 cannons in a row, even if the iron-core copper cannon was durable and the front-loading cannon fired slowly, it could not withstand such a high-frequency strike.

Chen Mu also stroked the body of the cannon, wanting to cry without tears - the copper skin is bulging, this is all money!

I can't bear the child, and I can't trap the wolf.

"General, the enemy has retreated."

There was a herald to report, Chen Mu waved his hand a little tiredly, signaling that he knew, took off his phoenix wings and sat on the chair of the artillery position, leaning back comfortably, only then did he breathe a long sigh of relief, looked down at the dent on the armor, and broke a feather arrow nailed to it at some point, and then smiled at the two: "To have this victory, the two of you have made great strategizing!" ”

Ji Neng retreat in Chen Mu expected, the Tumut people can only rely on surprise attacks, with the battle line stretched Danfan Pass was occupied by the follow-up reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty, once the formation of the encirclement can trap them in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, without siege ordnance, they can not escape the fate of being surrounded and annihilated under the tactics of the strong wall and clear the field.

So their raid is a priority, and it has to be fast.

Once the offensive is frustrated, either bypass or retreat, there is no other way of fighting.

Delayed for a few days in the Juma River, this has far exceeded Ji Neng's prediction, if it continues to be consumed, not to mention that more than one percent of the army's dead and wounded can not be replaced, and the remaining soldiers and horses will also be lost in the open land.

Wu Dui and Chen Ju are not as tired as Chen Mu, these two old brothers are very excited, and they have a sense of unfinished.

Both of them have led soldiers, and they have even seen soldiers all day long, and they have been on the battlefield many times, but they have never fought.

Only this time, I personally participated in it and repelled the strong enemy, so that the two middle-aged people seemed to be radiant and returned to the appearance of teenagers, not to mention how excited they were.

At this time, Chen Mu's words were like pouring cold water on Zhengxing's head for the two prison guards, and Wu Dui, who was accustomed to being filthy in the court, restrained his smile and did not speak, and Chen Ju, the internal official who had just been established, straightened his face and said with horizontal eyebrows: "What does General Chen mean by this, do you think that the miscellaneous family will rob you of your merits when they come to you?" Or do you plan to use the meritorious deeds that the soldiers have exchanged for their lives as a favor? ”

Chen Mu put away his hand, sat and raised his eyebrows, seeing that Chen Ju's expression did not seem to be fake, he didn't expect this 'gentleman' to be quite upright, he smiled and said calmly: "Yes, Chen Mou is to use meritorious deeds to do favors, and in this battle report, please be sure to write truthfully about how to manipulate the enemy's exploits." ”

Chen Ju frowned, the expression on his clean and bearded face was extremely complicated, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells in disbelief - just, just admit it so generously?

"Hey, Chen is not a family heirloom, he is a small banner of Qingyuan, he is a serf, and he receives brown rice from three stones of the moon. The two of them said before that the merits in the north are difficult to calculate, the first rank is strict, and the rewards in the north are huge, and now Chen has killed more than 1,000 enemies in the Juma River, how many merits can the court record? ”

Chen Mu laughed self-deprecatingly: "I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two, Nanyang Fanyi has a lot of trouble in taking Australia as his family, Chen wants to train a strong army, but the background of the guards is difficult and difficult, as the two of you have seenβ€”β€”"

"The guns prepared by my soldiers are all first-class in the world, and the Nanyang Guard Ordnance Bureau pulled it up for Chen, and it used the money in the guard. Since Chen was promoted to a thousand households, he made up his mind to let the flag army be fed and clothed, but for Chen's selfish desires, he owes the flag army a lot. ”

"Wu Bingbei, my Nanyang Banner Army killed the enemy, but it is still brave and decisive?"

Wu Dui had just bowed his head, and Chen Ju had already shouted for Chen Mu's banner army: "Not to mention being brave and decisive, their method of rotation shooting is difficult to match even the Shenji Battalion!" Not only is the cannon the first class in the world, but this flag army is also the first class in the world! ”

Chen Ju never spoke much before, but at this time, he opened his mouth to call Qu Chen Mu for the banner army, only to find that the teeth in the mouth of this young eunuch with a white and clean face were black, which made him laugh secretly in his heart.

Chen has no other thoughts, he just wants to be able to record merit truthfully, and at the head of the example, one hundred is counted as one hundred, and three hundred is counted as three hundred, and he doesn't want to be erased from his merits. The two overseers are Mingjian, Chen is a border minister, there is no one in Beijing to support him, and he does not want the meritorious deeds of the soldiers to be erased by the villain, so he has this request, hoping that the names of the two adults can be on the war report, in case they are coveted. ”

"Chen, the deputy commander-in-chief of the command, is deeply favored by the imperial court, and can be loyal to the country to stop the enemy in a battle, kill him and retreat, and he has no regrets in his heart."

Chen Mu said it with deep affection, and stood up and said: "But it is a great relief for Chen to be able to record his merits truthfully, even if Chen has fewer meritorious deeds, so that the soldiers can get the reward from the imperial court, and the talented soldiers among them can be promoted and rewarded." ”

"I think the two of them are honest and honest people, so I have this reluctant request, I hope the two can look at the face of the thousands of soldiers on the Juma River, don't be stingy with their reputation, and write their names in the war report!"

Chen Ju's lips were dry, and he looked at Wu Dui.

The two prison guards are smart people, but no matter how smart they are, they still haven't bypassed, obviously Chen Mu wants to give them a favor, how can he say it, it seems that they are giving Chen Mu a favor, and it has also become a great favor to help tens of thousands of banner troops.

Wu Dui smiled, he had long known that Chen Mu had no taboos in small things, but he was extremely careful in big things, and arched his hand: "General rest assured, the military department, Jizhen, and Changzhen are all towards the general, and no one can erase the general's merits." ”

"It's really rare for Your Majesty to have such a general." Chen Ju shook his head, sighed a little, and said, "General, you have a heart!" ”
