Outside Wuchang City, from Zhoujia Village to Shijiawan, behind the Ming army's attack front that stretches for more than ten miles, a huge material dumping ground has been formed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The attacking Ming army dug trenches on the front, built earthen cities, and pulled up wooden fences, forming a tight defense. The captured Qing army trenches were used as protective rings, and a large number of materials were piled up in the middle, and earthen villages were also pulled up on the periphery.

On the head-to-head front, the armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties have launched a fierce contact battle, and the guns on both sides are grounded, but because the distance is still very far, the guns on both sides are just a sound. Although the Ming army had extremely high-precision rifled guns, because it had not yet entered the stage of formal assault warfare, the Ming army did not use valuable rifled guns.

The power of rifled guns is great, but the rifling has a lifespan, with the casting technology and material technology of the year, a rifled gun can fire about 200 rounds is already very good, and if it continues to fight, the rifling will be smoothed.

Once the rifling of the rifled gun is smoothed, the accuracy is not as good as that of the smoothbore gun.

At the foot of the Shiziyuan Mountain on the riverside, the Ming army built a simple wharf, and countless transport ships loaded with goods went down the river from the upper reaches of the Xiangjiang River and docked at the simple wharf by the river. The auxiliaries and civilians were busy unloading the cargo from the ship and carrying it ashore.

All kinds of food, food, ammunition, clothing, medicinal materials and weapons were piled up, and on the earthen cities built around, the Ming soldiers who were on guard were vigilantly staring into the distance. In addition to the sentinels on the tower, the Ming army also arranged secret sentry posts in the nearby mountains and forests to prevent the Qing army from sneaking up on the Ming army's grain storage place. Not only that, but there were also twenty-six gunboats cruising back and forth on the river, all the gun doors were open, and the muzzles of the black holes were sticking out of the gun doors and aiming at the shore.

It seems that as a deterrent, there are still more than a dozen corpses wearing civilian clothes or Qing army uniforms hanging on the flagpole outside Tucheng, which are Qing army spies who were hunted by the Ming army at night and secret sentinels. A bold Qing army spy tried to get closer, but before they could enter the vicinity of Tucheng, they were eliminated by the Ming army secret outpost ambushed in the jungle.

In the jungle in the distance, there were Qing army spies disguised as ordinary people, holding binoculars, and poking their heads into the Ming army's food hoarding sites.

"It seems that the imperial court is going to attack Minggou's granary, but there is no chance at all!" One of the Qing army spies sighed.

Another spy said: "Minggou is well guarded, how many of our brothers have passed, and they have no chance to get closer, look over there, they are all hanging on the flagpole!" ”

The first spy asked, "We can't get close, how can we talk to Xiangye when we go back?" ”

"Hey! Let's tell the truth, it means that the dogs are heavily guarded, and it is not advisable to sneak attack their grain and grass warehouse. The second spy shook his head.

Soon after, Ao Bai received information from the spies. The Qing army's multi-channel spies returned to Wuchang City, and the information they sent back was the same sentence: Minggou was heavily guarded, and there was no chance to approach it at all.

"Xiangye, how to prevent it, there are always loopholes! I also hope that Xiangye will allocate 5,000 elite soldiers to the last general, and the last general will definitely be able to surprise the Ming dog food and grass warehouse! Contribute to the court and the emperor! "After only reading a few Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhangtai Belle, who thought he was familiar with military books, stood up and said.

Ao Bai mercilessly rejected Zhangtai's proposal: "Zhangbeile, five thousand men and horses have gone, and they can only be sent to death in vain!" If you are not sure, it is better not to do it! ”

Zhangtai said: "Xiangye, as the saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and now the situation is outnumbered, if you don't take the risk of gambling, how can our army break the thief?" Didn't my imperial court master take many adventures before entering the customs? When didn't you win a bet? ”

Ao Bai still resolutely disagreed: "Baylor, never! It's not what it used to be, it's not what it was now! Back then, the Minggou scouts were not as good as our army, and they were not strictly guarded, so they were repeatedly attacked by our army! Now that the Ming dog has sharp firearms and strict military discipline, if you take a rash risk, you will inevitably be defeated! ”

Yue Le also interjected a sentence on the side: "Zhangtai Belle, back then, Ming Dog would kill good people and lie about the military situation, but now?" The Ming dog across from us doesn't seem to have ever killed a good person, right? And according to Xiao Wang's rule, the Ming dog on the other side has never lied about the military situation, right? Where are the loopholes in such an army that can be broken? ”

Who knew that Tu Hai sneered: "This official decided that Lord Belle is right!" Wealth and danger are sought! Ming Dog is now strong and strong, they rely on their sharp firearms, step by step, steady and steady, little by little to encroach on the outer positions of our army! If our army doesn't take the risk of gambling and let the Ming dog eat away little by little, won't we wait for death? Don't gamble, it's just a slow death! If you take a risk, our army still has a chance to win! In that case, why not gamble? ”

"Tuhai!" Ao Bai couldn't bear Tu Hai, the guy sent by Kangxi to mix sand in his army, so he yelled at Tu Hai, "Since Minggou wants to take it step by step and fight steadily, we will spend it with them!" We can't hold out, every time Minggou breaks through a position, it consumes a lot of gunpowder, and its own losses are not small! We can afford it! Even if we can't hold Wuchang, we retreat to Jiangbei, we still have the Ganxi Green Battalion, and the elite Eight Banners outside the Guan! At that time, when I went to the Jiangbei Plain, Minggou lost the convenience of the water division, but it was conducive to the play of our cavalry! The key now is to save more strength! As long as you save your strength, you have a chance to win! If all the blood is shed, what are we going to do with Minggou? ”

Originally, in real history, Tuhai was a chess piece used by Bumu Butai and Kangxi to deal with Aobai. It's just that in real history, it wasn't until Aobai was taken that the dark chess piece of Tuhai was made public.

But now history has changed, originally Tuhai did not have a crushing defeat in Kuidong, but won a complete victory, exterminated the Kuidong Righteous Army, and Bumu Butai and Kangxi naturally promoted Tuhai to an official. What now? Tuhai Kuidong was defeated, the army was lost, and he had to be sent to Ningguta no matter what he said, but he was saved by Bumu Butai. Now that the Huguang War has begun, Tuhai has brought the new army of the Eight Banners that the imperial court has just trained to supervise the war.

Now that Bumu Butai and Kangxi are doing this, Ao Bai has clearly felt that this guy Tuhai is a person from Bumu Butai and Kangxi. It's just that Ao Bai has never had the idea of rebelling, otherwise he really wanted to cut Tuhai with a knife.

Tuhai didn't dare to collide with Ao, so he had to retreat stupidly. However, a treacherous and cunning person like Tuhai will naturally not fail to stumble on Aobai. That night, he went to find Changtai.

"Lord Belle!" Tu Hai saw Zhangtai and said straight to the point, "Now the situation, the thieves are powerful, if we don't win with a clever plan, our army will be defeated sooner or later!" Or is there still a chance to win Lord Baylor's surprise attack plan! ”

Zhangtai welcomed Tuhai in, opened the map on the table and said, "The terrain around the Lion Ridge is quite complicated, we can find a path with a loose guard and detour to the past!" ”
