Chapter 562: Never Default

Nanguo Gong has already informed the whole army that no matter which soldier obtains the head of the Houjin Army, he will cash out the head reward on the spot and will never be in arrears, and Nanguo Gong will use his own money to cushion the imperial court, no matter whether the imperial court admits the account in the future, he must not let the meritorious soldiers suffer.

This is Huang Sheng's reassurance to all the soldiers, because in the second year of Chongzhen, the imperial court denied more than half of the head rewards, and many Liao soldiers still remember it vividly, and the credibility of the imperial court has been greatly reduced.

Huang Sheng didn't come to the void, and promised to hand over his head to receive the reward and settle the bill on the spot, this method was too fresh and convincing, and of course the Ming army was excited.

They fantasized that the Jiannu cavalry rushed into the position they had dug up, and they jumped out and chopped it all the way, and if they were lucky, they could exchange it for sixty taels of silver, and they could buy ten acres of land when they returned to their hometown!

The wealth is moving, and all the Ming troops are keeping a close eye on the movements of Jiannu, and they are all looking forward to the opportunity to win.

This is completely different from the previous war between the Ming army and Jiannu, at that time, the Ming army also kept a close eye on Jiannu's movements, and they were all ready to run away when the situation was not good.

Haha, I'm sorry, who brings what kind of soldiers, Huang Sheng knows human nature well, first creates opportunities for the Ming army, and then stimulates them with white flowers, and in this half a year, they have improved their combat effectiveness and armed them, and now the Ming army is like a hungry wolf peeking at the fat sheep.

The Ming army got Huang Sheng's guidance, digging the tunnel is very scientific, first of all, you can't dig a straight line, you must dig a zigzag, and every 100 steps will dig out a turn, this is for the troops to move along the tunnel at full speed, in case the task changes and needs to divide the troops, there are two roads to diverge.

The level of the tunnel should be mastered, the drainage ditch in the tunnel should be unobstructed, and there should be a diversion pit at intervals, so as not to seriously affect the flexibility of the fighters due to the accumulation of water in the tunnel.

There is no digging of foxholes, because there is no need, that kind of arrangement is designed to avoid enemy artillery fire and reduce their own casualties, how can Jiannu have any artillery fire?

The Houjin army, which was subjected to the unhurried shelling of the Ming army, was dumbfounded, the Ming army was still digging, and if it was dug again, it might be connected with the tunnel dug by the Houjin army.

The red gang expected too many situations where the Ming army would attack, but he didn't expect the Ming army to dig and shoot artillery, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, that 'killing god' is too unauthentic, there are no rules, how can there be such a reason to fight?

The sense of powerlessness once again plagued a generation of heroes, at this time the red gang wanted to cry without tears, but he still had to pretend to be light-hearted, and he had to carry it to death, every time in the dead of night, the eight children tossed and turned and could not sleep peacefully, and the slave chief was exhausted!

The Red Gangster has been secretly observing the battlefield with a clairvoyant mirror, and he can't help but do it quietly, because the Nu Chief no longer knows how far the Ming army's artillery fire can reach.

He never gave the order for the Houjin army to attack, and he was very persistent in believing that by letting the Ming army come to the battlefield that he had painstakingly managed for nearly a year, the Houjin army could fully grasp the initiative.

Now it seems wishful thinking, as winter turns to spring and summer approaches, the breastwork walls that were once frozen and indestructible and made of earth have collapsed into soft mounds.

There are many landslides in the tunnel, and the stagnant water has turned into mud, and in some areas, not to mention the war, it is difficult to even gain a foothold.

The foot archers of the Houjin army slipped under their feet and could not help, and even opening the bow and releasing arrows became a problem.

In the current situation, where does the Dajin Army have any advantages at all? The slave chief's heart was full of misery, he had long regretted that he had spent a whole year outside Jinzhou City.

There is no way, there is no place in the world to sell regret medicine, I can only pay attention next time, as long as the Ming Kingdom "kills the gods" and leads the troops in the future, what does it matter if our Dajin Kingdom lets him score three points? We must not make a desperate attempt to destroy this "killing god" again.

The Red Gang kept receiving reports of casualties from the first line of defense, and he was so worried that his gray hair had increased a little.

The Ming army adopted the scientific ratio of taking turns to rest every hour, and the army of four shifts soon pushed the preset battle line to about 100 steps in front of the Houjin army's position.

This distance was the most advantageous for the Huang musketeers, the crackling flintlock rifled guns could break through the armor at a distance of a hundred paces, and the projectiles fired by the Goryeo musketeers could not reach the Ming army at all.

The musketeers of the two armies finally caught the fire, and just after the first round, the Korean soldiers could not bear it, they did not dare to look around, let alone run away, but they were not stupid and would be passive and slack off, and they lay in the trenches one by one and did not even dare to lift their heads.

A few Bayalas who supervised the battle put on a look of death and came to the front to drive the slave soldiers to fight back, but unfortunately because they were more sassy, they did not bend over and bow their heads, and were shot by the Ming army musketeers, and turned into a sieve one by one.

The deaths of the masters of the war were more and more ugly, several of them were blown off their heads, and the red and white things flowed with the mud, and the Goryeo arquebusiers did not dare to move, one by one like ostriches with their heads in the sand.

Eight little faint, the Goryeo musketeers he had high hopes for didn't seem to have the ability to fight against the 'god-killing' musketeers at all, and it was obviously not advisable to shoot muskets, so you have to think about it!

The fantasy artillery bombardment can no longer be done, and the artillery arranged by the Houjin army has been focused on by the Ming army, and now most of them have become decorations.

The Red Gangsters really can't understand why the Ming army's artillery fire can be so accurate when it hits so far? He has already realized that he may not be able to please under Jinzhou City, and it is very likely that he will lose to that "killing god" again.

At this moment, the red gang is sad in his heart, since I was born with a talented red gangster, why did I arrange a Huang Sheng to get along with me? This kid has seen a lot of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and there is a grievance of Zhou Yu before his death.

The Ming army consolidated its position about a hundred steps outside the position of the Houjin army, and the Houjin army cowered in the trenches and did not dare to raise its head, and even so, casualties continued to appear.

Because the scout flags on the high watchtower instructed the Ming army's rifled guns to bombard unhurriedly, they could only take their time, and the rate of fire of the rifled guns could not rise.

Although the flowering bomb fell into the position built by the Houjin army and could not blow up a large area, the successful fall into the enemy's trench could also bring the lives of three or two Houjin troops.

Tomorrow the result will be very different, the No. 8 artillery position is already deployed for defense, there is a mile away from the Houjin army's position, the smoothbore guns have already moved forward, and by that time the effective range of more than 400 paces more than 100 smoothbore guns can participate in the battle.

With so many pieces of artillery, half of which are twelve-pounder guns, the flowering shells fired can completely cover the Houjin army's position about 100 steps deep, and it is estimated that the Houjin army will definitely not be able to withstand the blow of more than 100 artillery salvos, and the collapse of their first line of defense is inevitable.
