Zachdan walked over and happily greeted Chen Xin, without any more politeness, Zachdan reported directly

"Your Majesty, just this battle, we have already killed and wounded nearly a thousand enemy troops. But just this time, it was the first time to go out and cut off the heads of enemy soldiers and collect loot.

The enemies we killed and wounded a few days ago were carried away by the Tartars themselves, and then burned in the distance.

In the past few days, we have basically been engaged in artillery battles with each other, and in this respect, our advantage is very great, so our casualties are very small.

Even today, in the battle just now, when Houjin's small-caliber copper infantry cannon hit several breastworks, because it was a rammed earth wall, there were not many casualties. ”

Chen Xin nodded and said, "Don't worry about hurting those heads from the previous few days." We've chopped off enough Tartar heads. You must know that although the head of the Tartar is valuable, it has now been sold by us to reduce the price of the price, and the Ministry of Commerce and Trade is now preparing to reduce the trading volume of the head of the Tartar in order to increase the price of a single product. ”

As he spoke, Chen Xin pointed to the spy platoons in front of him and said, "When they passed through the pothole area, they did not spread out in a straggler line, but marched in formation, are there mines planted around those potholes?" ”

"The king knows everything." Zachdan smiled and patted his ass in a joking tone and said, "In the previous plan, there was no such article.

Later, however, during many exercises, some staff officers discovered that in that area, it was entirely possible to set up more traps and bury mines within 100 meters of the barrage.

No Tartars have come in along this line, so the command has added this to the plan.

In fact, not only in the area of the potholes and horse traps, but also in the barrage ditch, there are also a lot of mines.

It's just that I don't know if you have seen the latest defensive plan we reported. ”

Before the war, Chen Xin had read the defense plan submitted by the First Brigade of the Mixed Brigade, and at that time, he read it very carefully, and even asked the personnel of the General Staff to come over and check it one by one.

Later, the plan was adjusted many times, but at that time, Chen Xin was busy dealing with the situation of several other colonies, so he did not have time to look at the revised plan carefully.

In this case, Chen Xin naturally failed to discover this kind of small detail that was modified.

"I only watched the first version." He casually answered Zachdan's question, and then, he looked at the auxiliaries on the battlefield, who were carrying waist knives to cut off the heads of enemy soldiers, and said with a smile: "These auxiliaries were recruited from Dongjiang Town before.

When we finish this battle, they can finally become a combat force that can be relied on.

It's a pity that we don't have so much weapons and equipment and military funds to support more professional soldiers, and for the time being, we can only let these auxiliaries serve as garrison soldiers. ”

Zachdan grinned and said, "My subordinates think that they are no worse than ordinary array infantry now, and even, in terms of discipline, they are already better than ordinary armed garrisons."

During the year in Lushun, they were able to eat well most of the time, and under the guidance of hatred, their will to fight was already better than that of most of the security forces. ”

Chen Xin smiled, then turned the topic back to the battle and said, "This time, the battle is mainly defensive operations, and you are still directly the commander. ”

Zachdan was stunned for a moment, he originally thought that after his eldest brother came, he would personally act as a commander to command this battle.

Chen Xin caught a glimpse of Zachdan's expression, and then, nodded at him, and said approvingly: "The Lushun defensive operation plan was jointly formulated by you and the General Staff Officer, and every detail in it was all with your participation.

You personally commanded this campaign, naturally it is the best, in the first few days, you fought very well, now, I want to ask, do you have anything else that you need my help with? ”

After Zachdan pondered slightly, he immediately said: "The minister thinks that the Tartars don't seem to have launched their maximum strength yet, and the few attacks they have launched in the past few days seem to be tentative attacks.

Or maybe they just want to fill in the holes in front of the position. The minister deduced that they were likely to launch a night attack.

I'm afraid that our army will encounter a large-scale attack later, and Dolgon finally came to such a trip, if he doesn't take it seriously and really fight, he can't explain it in front of those middle and high-level people in Houjin.

This person can get the title of the wise king, he is still a bit of a Taoist, and he rarely loses in battles, this is the first time he has directly confronted him, and there is always a worry in the minister's heart! ”

Chen Xin turned around and came to a large telescope that had been set up on the side, and looked around in the telescope.

The auxiliaries in front of them, having already cut off the heads of the enemy, took out shovels and hoes, and began to dig the filled holes again, and some even picked up the excavated soil, so that they would not be used by the tartars again.

This is one of the advantages of controlling the battlefield, and this section of the area is always under the control of the fire of the Huaxia Army. As long as the Tartars can't attack once, the auxiliaries will go out to dig the hole. In this case, the Tartars would have died in vain, and everything would have been quickly restored to its original state.

Chen Xin turned the binoculars and did not see the location of Dolgon's banner at all, but he was not disappointed, whether he could see it or not, Dolgon could not avoid his defeat.

Chen Xin said lightly: "Don't think so badly about Dolgon, his records are all from the Ming army, Korean officials, and Mongolian tribesmen, in front of my Huaxia army, he doesn't have any victories."

Each of the Houjin Eight Banners has its own interests, and the entanglements are so deep that they can annoy people to death, and they are far less than the unity of the kingdom.

After all, he is only one person, our materials are so rich, and the plan is from the suggestions of many staff officers and officers, and the things that should be thought of are basically thought of, he Dolgon is not a god, even if a person's head is powerful, can it be more powerful than so many of our officers and staff officers?

When it comes to qualifications, Dorgon may not be able to compare to you Zachdan, leaving behind the worries you face about your reputation.

Just like when we were under Suna, when no one dared to resist the tyranny of Jiannu, we were able to do such a big thing and defeat the Tartars along the way.

Now, looking back, the so-called Jurchen Eight Banners Warriors are nothing more than that! ”
