Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Page 1133

However, there is an old saying that the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny. Whether it is the so-called goddess of war or the goddess of luck, obviously they are not on the side of Khmelnytsky. The skirt was removed, revealing the inside...

The current situation is that Daming is not facing the problem of supplies. Instead, Khmelnytsky's side has a headache in terms of logistics supplies. The longer the delay, the more disadvantageous the Cossack cavalry led by Khmelnytsky .

But on the battlefield where gunpowder is invisible, the rangers and scouts on both sides are testing back and forth, killing each other, and dozens of fresh lives disappear in this world almost every day.

It is the Cossack cavalry that disappeared the most.

No way, there has never been any fair thing in the world, even if there is, it is actually relatively fair—whether it is weapons or armor, the Cossack cavalry is a weak side compared with Ming's first-level combat readiness troops.

Even, the Cossacks didn't have much advantage even in terms of war horses that should take advantage.

After all, the quality of a horse breed is one thing, but in terms of the breeding and training of war horses, Daming took advantage. After all, the knowledge accumulated over thousands of years is the most precious and cannot be copied.

After testing each other countless times, Amin was still calm as pity, showing no signs of anxiety at all. Even Meng Xianglin and Wan Yanli, the two killers, no longer considered other issues, but took advantage of this rare The opportunity to humbly ask the regular army for survival skills on the battlefield.

Khmelnytsky could bear it no longer.

There is probably only one consequence left, all the civilians on his side run away, or all fall to the Ming Empire, and the Cossack cavalry led by him can't wait for the supplies sent by Moscow, and then die.

Then Khmelnytsky led his Cossack cavalry to the Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner led by Amin.

Amin sat on the horse, looked at the Cossack cavalry in the distance with a telescope, and said to the eunuch who was in the same position next to him: "Speaking of which, this staff system is really easy to use.

In the past, almost everything had to be thought about in wars, and if you didn't think about it, you would have a big problem.Well now, with these various combat staff officers, you only need to choose the right one from the plans they proposed, which is very worry-free. "

Zuo Duan, the eunuch of the Supervising Army, was a young eunuch who had self-castrated and entered the palace in the sixth year of Tianqi. Later, by chance, he entered the Imperial Horse Supervisor. He was also a ruthless character who followed Emperor Chongzhen to sweep Mobei, and was later assigned as a prisoner. Army eunuch.

After listening to A Min's words, Zuo Duan laughed and said, "Who are those staff officers? They are all scholars, right? It is said that scholars have dark hearts, which can be seen from the battle plans they made.

Although our family is a eunuch, we have seen a lot of tricks in the palace, but if we really want to talk about insidiousness, those tricks in the palace will not even wear shoes for these combat staff! "

On the other side of Amin, Zhou Yu, the Chief of Staff of the Operations, immediately became unhappy after hearing Zuo Duan's words: "Why do you say that? How easy are the methods in your palace? Aren't you the one who made those bullshit things?" Take it out?

Besides, what happened to these vicious battle plans made by the staff?Can it be called vicious when used on barbarians? "

A Min hummed and said, "That's right. How can there be so many people who are upright in this world? Soldiers are cunning, and those who can win the war are good strategies, especially for these barbarians."

While the three were talking nonsense, the Cossack cavalry on the opposite side had already started to mobilize their horses, ready to charge.

Khmelnytsky adopted the most usual and favorite tactics of the Cossacks.

In other words, there is no tactic at all, the army directly presses up, and goes straight to the enemy's Chinese army formation-playing wars with the Central Plains Dynasty for thousands of years, and has developed countless different tactics. There is a fart tactic on the European side ...

Just like the Macedonian phalanx that Ou Chuan kneeled and licked countless times, if they were taken to compete with Wei Wuzu during the Warring States Period, it is estimated that the fathers of these Ou Chui would have lost all their scum.

Because Macedonia's only protective gear is a shield, the so-called spear is similar to rejecting a horse, and is used to guard against cavalry.

In addition to the tactics of the army formation, the army of the Central Plains Dynasty required shields and shields, not the round shields used by Macedonia, but square shields. When it comes to the protection of soldiers in the army formation, the gap between round shields and square shields It's not even an order of magnitude...

As for the so-called spears, are there no horses from the Central Plains Dynasty?In addition, there are more armor and so on than them.

For an army formation like Macedonia, even if there is no such equipment as muskets and artillery, they can be killed by relying on the most primitive cavalry and archers with kite flying tactics.

As for the English longbowmen who can make Europeans climax countless times, let’s count how many there are. An English longbowman can shoot a few arrows before speaking out, especially in countries that can’t even build bows and arrows...

The reason why these two things can shine is nothing more than because Europe was still in a relatively bad time at that time, just like the late Ming Dynasty in the original history, it was also in a relatively bad time.

It's just that, in this process of comparison, the performance of the Macedonian phalanx and the English longbow watch is slightly better, so a large number of European blowers in later generations can climax countless times because of this.

At the very least, the tactics adopted by the Cossack cavalry led by Khmelnytsky almost made the telescope in Amin's hand fall to the ground.

Amin thinks that his methods of fighting are not very clever. After all, he relied on a book of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as the art of war when he joined the army. Scolded countless times.

Even so, A Min felt that he was countless times stronger than the barbarians on the opposite side.

The reason is very simple. Amin can see from the news that the Cossack cavalry has performed very well in Europe. At least many European countries, especially Poland, always look constipated when they mention the Cossack cavalry.

However, after arriving on the battlefield, it was discovered that these Cossack cavalry who were tortured into dead dogs by the Mongolian cavalry did not learn a little bit of Mongolian cavalry gameplay, let alone any tactics such as mangu, but they were still the same as before. .

The army pressed up and took the Chinese army directly.

Amin felt a ball of sadness.

The battle plan that had been deliberated several times by more than a dozen staff officers was completely useless, and the military formation and defense plan prepared for this were also all useless.

flank?The Cossack horse boys led by Khmelnytsky didn't think about it at all. The unorganized and undisciplined Cossack characteristics were once again displayed, and then these spicy chickens rushed over in a swarm.

Damn, a large number of troops were prepared to distribute on both sides to protect the flanks, and all kinds of protective methods were basically prepared, but it turned out that they were not used at all!

Amin, who was so painful, didn't care about the two wings at all, and simply ordered the soldiers to pass the order, and the Chinese army directly killed the group of Cossack cavalry.

When these unorganized and undisciplined Cossack cavalry rushed to more than 300 meters away from the main formation of the Chinese army, the artillerymen brought by Amin began to speak—speaking with cannons!

Ignoring Alkimir's warning, the more than 5 Cossack cavalry who charged collectively suffered a big loss. Not to mention countless deaths and injuries from shells, there was another large wave of horses trampled to death after being frightened.

Amin's Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner cavalry were originally distributed on the two wings with Meng Xianglin and Wanyan Lishou's assassins. Now seeing that the formation of the Cossack cavalry on the opposite side is finished, these assassins immediately became excited. .

I have never seen such a cavalier!

Daming has fought against the Jiannu cavalry for decades, and has fought against the Mongolian cavalry for 300 years. Whether it is the Jiannu cavalry or the Mongolian cavalry, at least they still have some appearances, and at least it can give the generals of the Ming Dynasty a headache. Fan.

But it was the turn of the Cossack cavalry who were blown away by the Europeans. These killers were pleasantly surprised to find that this group of cavalry didn't even do any protection against artillery, let alone other tactics!

Now the formation of these Cossack cavalry has been chaotic, except for the dead ones in front, the rest are still rushing forward desperately, except for those frightened horses, the rest are closely following up Chong, this kind of opportunity is simply a once-in-a-century opportunity!

The cavalrymen of Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner, together with the assassins under Meng Xianglin and Wan Yanli rushed out screaming.

It doesn't matter if the Cossack cavalry don't care about the wings. These killers like to outflank from the two wings and then siege.

Isn't it just more than 5000 cavalry against more than 5 cavalry? It was originally an evenly matched scene, but now the opponent's horses are frightened, but your side has the upper hand!

And the killers of the Ming cavalry are obviously not the troops who paid attention to war etiquette during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, let alone the situation like the Battle of Bi. The hand crossbow on his neck was finally drawn out of the saber.

This was a war that was more like a farce than a war—the Cossack cavalry had been in a state of confusion from the very beginning, and far more cavalry were killed or injured by their own people than by the Ming artillery and cavalry.

The most important thing is the unorganized and undisciplined formation, and the horses that have not experienced the baptism of artillery can't adapt to the impact of Daming's artillery salvo, whether it is gunpowder smoke or roar.

Creatures like war horses are too smart. Any smart animal will be afraid of death. Unless it is completely accustomed to the sound of artillery, no war horse can continue to charge amidst the roar of artillery. It can only rely on the skill of the rider. Only the best riding skills can control it.

Amin, who was at the end of the entire battlefield, put down the binoculars he had been holding, and said after a sigh: "It's over, there's nothing to see."

Zuo Duanxin said with concern: "Isn't this the swan song of the Cossack cavalry?"

Amin nodded and said: "I don't know if it is the swan song of all the Cossack cavalry, but it is definitely the swan song of the Cossack cavalry in front of me.

They are finished, there is no hope, even if they still have so many people left, they are no different from pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered. "

It was indeed the last swan song, the number of people turned into a joke in front of dozens of cannons and thousands of muskets, and Ming's army had already started the final harvest operation.
