The sky gradually brightened, and above the Yangtze River, the fleet continued to fire cannons on Tianmen Mountain. However, the artillery fire has gradually thinned out, and I think the shells have been almost used.

Counting, the shelling has been going on for an hour. The ghost knows how much steel Fang Wei has poured on the enemy's head, and the ghost knows how many Jiannu have been killed. However, the deterrent effect of the shells was obvious, and the panicked cries of the mountains could be faintly heard in the ears.

The flames on the entire Tianmen Mountain were still burning, completely shrouded in white smoke.

The Marines have all landed and gathered on the pier. In addition to the naval guns, the infantry guns on the Marine Corps' side also reached four, lined up, and the black hole pointed at the road in front of them.

After being tired all night, except for the troops at the intersection who were still on alert, everyone else was already sitting on the ground to recuperate.

Someone also took out the can, opened the lid, scooped it with a spoon, and ate it in a big gulp.

Even the armor was taken off and placed neatly in front of him along with the weapon in his hand.

Seeing that everyone had taken off their armor, Wang Duo suddenly became a little worried, at this time, if the enemy suddenly killed, what should it be?

Although he is a military layman, he has seen a lot of wars, but he has already seen some ways. Fighting such a thing depends on artillery and firearms, and on who has more steel on it. As long as you wrap the person in the iron armor and rush forward, the battle can be solved. Of course, this kind of battle is extremely expensive to fight, and the Ningxiang army can afford to consume it.

The armor of the heavy infantry of the Ningxiang Army is very heavy, at least forty catties, maybe heavier, anyway, Lao Wang can't lift it with his two hands

。 This kind of armor is very inconvenient to wear, and it takes a long time to put it on with the help of auxiliary soldiers, or to help each other.

I'm afraid that Jiannu will come to a surprise attack, and then it will be troublesome.

Luo Quanyou scoffed at Lao Wang's concerns, and replied that there was only one way down the mountain, and it was narrow, so it was not a wide battle surface. Even if the enemy has thousands of troops, there are no more than 100 people who can fight at one time. By then, the enemy had already been killed by muskets before they could pounce on him.

"Actually, even if we want to put 5,000 marines into battle at once, it's impossible! The enemy can't do it, and neither can we, so it's just a team of people who are consuming it here. Speaking of this, Luo Quanyou pointed to the mountain road with a smile and said: "Whether it is the enemy's charge or our army's counterattack, you have to walk the way!" ”

Following his fingers, the entire road down the mountain was paved with corpses and wounded soldiers. Every now and then a few faint moans were heard, followed by a slight squirming. [Marshmallow updates quickly, the website page is refreshing, there are few ads, no pop-ups, I like this kind of website the most, be sure to praise]

Until now, Luo Quanyou and Wang Duo still don't know how long this road is.

More than six hundred enemies lay on the ground, dead in strange shapes, some of whom could not even save their bodies.

Those who were shot by muskets were better, and those who were hit by shells had turned into a pile of minced meat.

The road had been turned into a slaughterhouse, and the long grass along the road had long since been swept away by artillery, and there were potholes everywhere, and the dirt inside had been lifted up, revealing the gray-white limestone rock formations below.

After repelling three enemy attacks in succession, Kennu on the hill became even more frenzied. Two more charges were organized, and without exception they were beaten back like flies by the musketeers of the Ningxiang Army. What's more, there are also four four-pounder bronze cannons joining, and the battle is more than fierce, but it is extremely easy.

Usually, before the enemy gets close, they are bombarded into a mess and do not form a formation.

At a distance of less than a hundred meters, the artillery fired flat, and the hitter, was immediately blown to pieces. To this day, the pile of corpses is still littered with broken shields, weapons, and human parts

。 Without exception, the fragments were scorched black by the heat generated by the explosion of the shells.

Even if they were lucky enough not to be killed by the artillery, when they reached a distance of fifty meters, they were shot down by muskets one after another.

So far, the Ningxiang Army has not even suffered a single casualty.

It can be seen from the clothes and armor of the fallen enemy that the Guanning army has been mixed with Jiannu. Each attacking squad was led by a few fierce Eight Banner Army, charging ahead, but so what, the faster you rush, the faster you die.

Hearing Luo Quanyou say this, Wang Duo also laughed easily. This was the first time he had encountered this kind of battle with zero casualties, and at this time he even had the illusion that the bloody killing in front of him was actually just a game, an interesting game.

Thinking of the embarrassment during the Battle of Dashengguan, Wang Duo realized that it was not that Jiannu was too fierce, but that the Zhenhai Navy was incompetent. In other words, the Ningxiang Army is too capable of fighting.

Hey, Zheng Sen is really useless, he almost hurt the old man. I knew that the battle of Dashengguan was so dangerous, and I shouldn't have competed with Zhu Dadian's villain to be the commander at that time. Knowing this, he should have gone directly to Sun Yuan to supervise the teacher. With Sun Yuan here, maybe the war in Jiangbei is over, and Shi Xianzhi estimates that he has also made a lot of military achievements from Sun Taichu.

After all the marines were brought ashore, the speedboats were not idle, and they still sent boats of gunpowder and shells over one after another.

By now, the entire dock already had a mountain of powder kegs and shell boxes, which were placed behind the artillery positions so aggressively. If you really encounter a little spark, I'm afraid that these thousands of people will really be blown up into the sky.

However, the artillerymen bullied Jiannu for not having a cannon, and they were too lazy to separate the artillery and ammunition in accordance with the regulations. This matter was later known to the Judge Advocate General's Office, and it was another big trouble. Fortunately, the navy is a relatively independent unit, and Fang Wei protected the calf again, and passed with a sloppy eye.

When the ammunition ran out, the boat brought in canned goods and various supplies, and finally even a few tents and many strange things.

The Marines also moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a makeshift camp was built.

At the intersection, the sword and shield hand even pierced a row of rejecting horses before.

At this moment, Wang Duo was sitting in a small tent, talking to Luo Quanyou in front of him, while waiting for the small red clay stove and sipping tea

。 The tea is this year's Taiping Houkui, and the tea set is fine porcelain produced in Jingdezhen. These are the standard equipment of the logistics of the Ningxiang Army, and he was a little surprised, the supplies under Sun Yuan were so good that they made such good tea and tea sets?

One of the guards replied with a smile that the tea set was specially prepared by General Fang Wei for the elders, saying that you had lost too much blood and needed to replenish a lot of water. Moreover, Ge Lao is a particular person, and the utensils used should naturally be the best.

"In this way, thank you General Fang." Wang Duo bowed slightly, which could be regarded as receiving Fang Wei's affection.

The guard added, "There are several principles for military supplies. ”

Wang Duo asked, "What principle?" ”

"First, it is necessary to replenish the necessary physical strength for the soldiers in the shortest possible time, and all the food is mainly oily and meaty, and heavy flavors, such as luncheon meat; Second, it is cheap and easy to store. For example, this kind of Taiping Monkey Kui, because it is green tea, no matter how you seal it, the color and fragrance will be lost after three or two months. Therefore, the army side mostly uses tea bricks. ”

Wang Duo was curious: "How does the navy use green tea?" ”

The guard smiled: "It will be two or three months floating on the ocean, and you won't see vegetarian vegetables and fruits at all, and if you don't drink green tea, you will be tired, and you will get sick." If the logistics dare to send the tea bricks over, aren't they afraid of being shot by the soldiers? The Navy spends money, in fact, it is reflected in these things. ”

Lao Wang was busy all night, the fragrant soup entered his throat, and he only felt extremely refreshed, and even the arrow wound on his back was not so painful: "This is the style that the old court should have when he goes on an expedition, this is the way to talk and laugh and kill the enemy, and strategize!" He thought to himself.

The only thing that made him dissatisfied was that the small box under his ass was really meaty, and after sitting for a long time, his tail vertebrae were numb.

It was the most valuable trophy he'd ever won in this battle, and yes, it contained Shang Kexi's head.

At that time, a soldier came to tell him that after interrogation and learned that Shang Kexi had been killed by the marines, not only Wang Duo, but even Luo Quanyou was full of surprise.

When he went to verify the matter, Wang Duo had a little Jiujiu in his heart. If you want to overpower Zhu Dadian in military exploits, you have to take Shang Kexi's head as your own. According to what he learned from Fang Wei, although the Ming army won an unprecedented victory in the Battle of Dasheng Pass and beheaded countless people, it did not capture or kill a weighty enemy general.

If you want to talk about the enemy generals with weight, on this Tianmen Mountain, except for Azig is Wu Sangui and the monk is happy, these two big traitors are the princes of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty

。 If Shang Kexi's head can be brought back to Nanjing, no matter how clever Zhu Dadian is and how Ma Shiying covers the sky with one hand, this first merit in the battle to destroy Azig will not be able to escape.

He was even imagining that Zhu Dadian impeached himself in front of the Manchu officials and the Son of Heaven, and then put Shang Kexi's head into the imperial review on his back foot, which was really happy!

However, it is not so easy to take such a big credit from the hands of the Ning Xiang Army.

When Wang Duo was thinking about how to open his mouth to Luo Quanyou, he noticed that something seemed to be wrong.

The Ningxiang army didn't seem to have the habit of cutting off the enemy's head, and only a clerk-like person came over to count the number of enemy corpses, and counted a sum of money on the book. Unlike other Ming armies, the heads of the enemy had to be collected together and sent to be examined layer by layer.

Wang Duo couldn't help but ask them curiously, if they don't cut off the heads on the corpses of the enemy, how should this military merit be calculated?

The clerk casually responded: "Our Ningxiang Army, at least the Marine Corps does not use the number of beheadings as a proof of merit." Because we are a whole, all the credit depends on the strength of the collective. Moreover, there are many drawbacks in calculating military merits according to beheading, and it is just a matter of good military discipline. If you encounter other Ming troops, you may be able to kill the good and take the risk.

Wang Duo: "It's ridiculous, how can you convince people if you don't use the number of beheadings as a proof of merit." In addition, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no one to make up for the collective calculation of military merits. ”

However, since the Ningxiang army didn't want the enemy's head, it was cheaper for Wang Duo.

He immediately ordered Shang Kexi's head to be cut off and put into a small wooden box used to hold tea. Because this thing is really important, Lao Wang can't be afraid, so he takes it directly with him and never leaves.

As he was talking, suddenly the naval guns on the river stopped.

Wang Duo couldn't help but jump: "Why don't you fight?" After speaking, he sat down heavily, refusing to leave the wooden box on his buttocks.

Without naval artillery, wouldn't it give Azig a chance to breathe?

Luo Quanyou pointed to the gate of heaven that had been completely shrouded in smoke and fire, and said with a smile: "The mountains have been burned like that, do you think it is possible for the Tartars to turn over?" ”
