Chapter 396: Galloping 0 miles, your soldiers are extremely fast

There are a lot of people sailing to sea along the southeast coast of Ming Dynasty.
Even Lu Li's "home" had people who went to sea. The origin of Lu Li's identity was because the eldest son of the Lu family took the young master on a boat trip and never returned.
In today's Ming Dynasty, the sea is naturally forbidden in official terms. In fact...there are very few homes of southeastern gentry that do not sail out to sea.
Under such circumstances, it was not a problem for Lu Li to collect and transport 15,000 soldiers and horses and military supplies.
Of course, because of the prohibition of the sea, it is illegal to go sailing at sea.
Lu Li, Songjiang General Soldier, also has the function of combating "smuggling" going to sea. Coupled with Lu Li's frightening record, Lu Li's move to ask for sea ships to transport troops and horses was smoothly supported.
Three days later, in the Jinshan Port built on the southeast coast of Jinshanwei, hundreds of sea ships docked densely.
The overseas trade of the Ming Dynasty was actually very prosperous.
The Xipan Duck people worked hard all over the world to fish for gold and silver. Two-thirds of the gold and silver were sent to Daming, replaced with silk porcelain, which was taken back with joy.
Lu Li sighed as he looked at the dense sea boats in front of him.
Prosperous overseas trade is actually a good thing. The only problem is... the court can't receive a cent. As a result, the Ming Treasury had no money, but the money of the officials and gentry was piled up like a mountain.
What made Lu Li sigh even more was that... the large sea ships in front of him were very similar in shape to the treasure ship, belonging to the smaller one.
Liu Daxia burned the treasure ship drawings, and... his family became one of Daming's largest maritime merchants. Haha, is the treasure ship drawing burned?
After Lao Tzu's destroyer is built, I will see who is special and dare not pay taxes!
Of course, this is the future.
"The whole army obeys the order and board the ship!"
Lu Li waved his hand, and his subordinates lined up in a neat line and boarded the ship one after another.
Various military materials were also loaded onto the ships, including guns, ammunition, grain and grass, as well as sleds specially made by Lu Li.
The sled is naturally to deal with the icy part of the Bohai Sea.
The average thickness of the ice on the coast of the Bohai Sea reaches 20 cm. This kind of hard ice is completely a highway!
The entire marching route took a boat from Songjiang Mansion to Dengzhou. Then land in Dengzhou and turn to Laizhou by land. The ice layer in the Bohai Sea in the north of Laizhou is thick enough, and then I rushed to Jinmen on a sled.
Lu Li predicted that the army would reach the capital within ten days. Within half a month, you will be able to drive to the Datong border.
This speed is at least two or three times faster than marching thousands of miles all the way through the wind and snow.
...
On the Jinshanwei Wharf, the nervous and orderly boarding lasted for a full half day.
Fifteen thousand troops have boarded the ship one after another, and all kinds of military materials have been loaded. Lu Li gave an order and set sail.
After four days and four nights, the fleet arrived in Dengzhou.
This speed was faster than Lu Li expected. It seems that the navigation skills of the Ming Dynasty are not bad. The poor is the court, and the sailing skills in private hands are not bad at all.
When Dengzhou landed ashore, Lu Li could already see the floating ice on the sea.
The army went ashore and spent more than half a day loading and unloading supplies. Army marched one day and arrived in Laizhou.
The Laizhou coast has been completely frozen.
The army camped outside Laizhou City and spent two more days repairing it.
Replace the spiked horseshoes, replace the wheels of the freight wagon with sleds, and assemble the troop carrier.
Because of the shortage of mules and horses, Lu Li almost wiped out all the mules, horses, donkeys and cattle in Denglai and bought them all. Only then did they gather the animals to pull the sled.
In addition, Lu Li also sent a vanguard force to set foot on the Bohai Sea ice layer to check the thickness of the ice layer and plan the marching route.
On the third day, the army was dispatched, along the small flagpole erected by the vanguard on the ice, and drove to the capital by sled.
I have to say that sliding on the ice is really fast.
Two days later, the army arrived at Jinmen.
The leaders of North Korea and China in Yanjing City received the express report from Jinmen Kuaima, and they were shocked to learn that Lu Li had arrived in Jinmen with his army.
So fast?
Everyone knows the principle of the speed of the soldiers. The question is how to speed it?
It has been less than ten days since Uncle Yunjian's army opened. Has this arrived in Jinmen?
In the afternoon that day, the leaders of North Korea and China were even more shocked.
Because... Lu Li's army had arrived outside Yanjing City.
The reason why it can be so fast is mainly because in the northern boundary, the ground is also covered with a thick layer of ice and snow. The sled is also suitable for land.
The army camped outside Yanjing City. Lu Li dispatched people to pay the orders to the Ministry of War and the Five Army Capital Governor's House.
Logically speaking, the emperor of Jiajing was to summon a military general of Lu Li's level leading his army to Beijing.
However... Emperor Jiajing, who was busy cultivating immortals, didn't think of this at all.
The emperor didn't say that he would summon Lu Li, and it was inconvenient for the leaders of the DPRK to meet with Lu Li. What do you want to do when you meet with the generals stationed outside the city of Yanjing, who are heavily armed?
Therefore, Lu Li traveled all the way to the capital, but no one paid any attention to him.
After staying outside the city of Yanjing for one night, early the next morning, the Ministry of War and the 5th Army Capital Governor's Mansion sent a military order, and the edict ordered Lu Li to lead the army immediately to the Datong border.
Lu Li accepted the military order, curled his lips, ordered the demolition of the camp, and the whole army assembled.
Fifteen thousand soldiers and horses lined up neatly, holding the bright sun and moon flags high, standing outside Yanjing City, shouting in the direction of Yanjing City.
"Da Ming mighty!"
"Da Ming mighty!"
"Da Ming mighty!"
The army shouted in unison, and the mighty and mighty voices swept across the square like a tsunami and landslide.
At this moment, the mighty shouts echoed between heaven and earth.
In Yanjing City, countless people were agitated by the shouts, and turned their heads to look out of the city.
It was Daming's mighty shouting, but it was not the Tartar attack.
But... When did my Daming have such a mighty military might?
Near the city gate, countless people craned their necks and looked at this strange army outside the city.
The bright red sun and moon flag fluttered in the wind.
A black-clothed army, lined up in a neat line, stepped neatly, rumbling around the city.
Except for the sound of neat footsteps, there is no noise in this army.
The queue is neat and tidy, as if measured with a ruler. Even during the journey, the neat queue is not at all disordered, it is still neat.
Where is this army?
When did my Ming have such a strong army?
At the gate of the city, Zhang Juzheng, the minister of war, raised his eyes to look at the neat army formation ahead, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and his heart was amazed.
Uncle Yun Jian is worthy of being a famous general in the world, such a powerful army, sure enough, the momentum of swallowing thousands of miles.
...
Datong Fucheng.
Datong General Sergeant Zhang Qin was sitting in front of the case, looking at the map in front of him, his face covered with grief.
Daming had set up a total of twenty-four guards and seventy-two forts in the Datong Mansion to strengthen the city with strong troops to resist the Tatar cavalry in the north.
Now, on the map placed in front of General Soldier Zhang Qin, the 72 Forts on the periphery have been covered with red "×s", and almost all have fallen to the enemy.
These garrisons are no more than a hundred front-line fortresses, mainly to warn the rear and block the enemy.
According to the original design, once the front-line fortress discovers a Tatar attack and ignites the beacon, the rear army is dispatched to cooperate with the fortress defenders to defeat the foreign enemy.
It's just... ever since the Ming army was unable to fight field battles and could only defend the city, the role of these front-line fortresses was nothing but warning.
It has been half a month since Tatar Kou, and the collapse of the front line fortress is also expected by Zhang Qin.
Today's plan is to defend Datong City from being broken by Tatar, even if it is lucky.
"General, emergency military information."
At this time, a soldier rushed in and reported to Zhang Qinhui: "Yesterday, fifty thousand Tatar cavalry attacked Datong Youwei. Now Datong Youwei and Yulinwei are trapped. Datong Zuowei and Yunchuanwei are in a hurry."
"understood!"
Zhang Qin nodded blankly.
The fall of Datong's left and right Weicheng was also in Zhang Qin's expectation. Zhang Qin naturally knew how much combat power the guards under his command had. It was impossible to stop the Tatar cavalry.
As for dispatching aid? forget it! Once the army leaves the city of Datong, what if it is ambushed by the Tatar cavalry? It is better to be cautious.
As long as Datong City can be defended, even if the outer fortresses and the acropolis all fall, it will still be a victory.
I hope that the Tatar cavalry will kill the soldiers of these fortresses and guards, and after grabbing the munitions, they can retreat and retreat!
Zhang Qin let out a long sigh. He also knew that the Tatar cavalry would not retreat after sweeping down these fortresses and acropolis.
Tatar Khan did not bring his tribes to fight Daming, and his tribes would unite to beat him.
So... to fight Daming, it can not only gain reputation, but also solve internal conflicts, and also take the opportunity to weaken the strength of the subordinates, it is simply suitable.
A few days later, the Tatar cavalry had already come to the city.
In just a few days, the guard fort outside Datong City was all lost. One hundred thousand Tatar cavalry smashed to the bottom of Datong City.
At the same time, fifty thousand Tatar cavalry attacked Dongshengcheng and fifty thousand cavalry attacked Wanquancheng.
The Tatar army marched on three routes, and for a while, the Xuanfu was in the same area, and the situation was precarious.
...
"Boom!"
Tartar returned to the shelled stone bullets and slammed heavily on the wall, and the towering castle tower collapsed in half.
"Fire! Fire! Give Lao Tzu blast those back!"
A military commander on the city wall crawled out of the debris of the collapsed tower and roared in a loud voice.
After roaring for a while, the general turned his head to look at Zhang Qin, "Master Soldier, where are the reinforcements! Where are the reinforcements? The casualties are too great. How can you defend the city without reinforcements?"
"How can reinforcements be so fast?"
Zhang Qin shook his head, "It is said that the Central Government transferred troops from Songjiang Mansion, Nanzhili, to assist them, and waited for the reinforcements to come... Tatars went back after fighting.
"Special mother!"
The gray-headed military commander yelled, "The adults in the court, do you have any brains?"
As he was speaking, a loud trumpet suddenly sounded in the distance.
"Di, di da da di di di..."
The stern trumpet echoed between heaven and earth.
Below the Great Wall in the distance, on a snow-covered hill, a sun and moon flag was raised high, and bright flags were waving in the wind.
"Boom boom boom..."
Below the hill, a black-clothed army, lined up in a neat phalanx, stepped neatly, appeared behind the Tatar cavalry.
"That's... reinforcements?"
The gray-headed military commander looked at an army of tens of thousands of people who appeared on the edge of the Great Wall. What appeared in his eyes was not surprise, but...
"Where does this army come from? Who is the general who led the troops? How did they go behind the Tatar cavalry? Why didn't they bring troops into the city? You are not looking for death like that!"
The disgraced general couldn't help cursing.
Chief soldier Zhang Qin was also speechless for a while.
Since you brought troops to help, why don't you enter the city? Why did you run behind the enemy? Can't even figure out the direction?
That's it! That's it! This support army is dead!
With a mere 10,000 infantrymen, facing a hundred thousand Tatar cavalry, this battle didn't need to be fought at all, and a charge would collapse.
Are you here to support, or are you here to give the Tartar a head?
What shocked Zhang Qin was that the black-clad army was actually under the hill, and it seemed that it was going to face the 100,000 Tatar cavalry!
Except for his courage, Zhang Qin has nothing to say.
The appearance of this force also surprised the Tatar cavalry outside the city.
Tartar Khan almost laughed when he looked at the black soldiers lined up against the Great Wall with his back to the Great Wall.
Where did the Ming army come from? With a mere 10,000 soldiers and horses, dare to leave the city? Ten thousand infantry, facing one hundred thousand cavalry, isn't this here to die?
"Tierhan, take your people over. Cut off their heads for me!"
Tatar Khan waved his hand to the head of the tribe next to him, "I'm ready for the kumiss, waiting for you to celebrate!"
"Hahahaha! Good!"
T'erhan laughed and walked out of the military tent with a long knife.
The horns sounded, and a cavalry of 20,000 men departed from the Tatar camp and marched in the direction of the black army.
Standing under the flagpole on the hill, Lu Li raised his binoculars and looked at the Tatar army in the distance, with a sneer of disdain on his face.
These Tatar cavalry are all cold weapons, and there is almost no threat.
"Pass the order! After receiving the enemy 500 meters, start to attack."
The reason for the advance to the distance of 500 meters is mainly because most of the soldiers under his command are only recruits who have received three months of training. It is inevitable that they will panic when they go to the battlefield for the first time.
If you put it too close ~EbookFREE.me~ in case of a situation where you drop your gun and run away in fright, it will be embarrassing.
"Boom!"
The 20,000 Tatar cavalry began to charge when they approached the army about a kilometer.
The horseshoes stomped on, the violent roar and the strong vibration made people involuntarily feel a sense of fear. It was indeed a huge psychological test for the infantry in the formation.
The recruits in the army have become short of breath, sweating on their bodies, and even some of them have turned pale.
Had it not been for the strict disciplinary requirements during military training that made them accustomed to obeying orders, I am afraid these recruits would be frightened and collapsed before they even started fighting.
"Five hundred meters to the enemy!"
The staff officer reported to Lu Li.
"Fire!"
