Soon Li Jinzhong discovered that not only Cao Ling was crazy, but also the three guards under him were crazy!
This time Zhu Youxiao asked Cao Ling to lead 2,000 people, so Cao Ling led three towns and more than 300 military police, which was enough for 2,000 people. To be honest, this must be said to be Zhu Youxiao's mistake. People were assigned not by military unit but by number of people, which brought a lot of trouble to the commander!
Cao Ling brought out three town guards this time: Ma Qiuyang, Liu Kan, and Gesleng!
That¡¯s right!
Ge Leng, who once intercepted Zhu Youxiao, but was killed by Zhu Youxiao and penetrated the army, is also here!
Although this guy is a Mongolian, he has cunning that is rare among Mongolians, and he is also extremely unique in cavalry combat, so he was promoted to guard by Li Rubai!
These guys were very excited when they came out this time. They thought that after holding it in for more than three months, they could finally go out and kill everyone, and by the way, they could get promoted and make a fortune!
But who knew that no matter the Kong family, King De, or the nobles of Nanjing, they were all as honest as rabbits. Not to mention rebelling, not one of them even cursed.
Since there is no battle, these people naturally have no military merit and no money. Seeing millions of taels of silver being sent back to the capital in carloads, they have nothing to do. To say that these big-headed soldiers are not greedy is a lie. Yes, but no one is attacking them, and they can't force them to rebel!
This was already depressing enough, but unexpectedly, when the battle report came out from the camp, the guys who stayed in the camp were actually sent to wander around the grassland. After they came back, they all had military exploits and received money. Now, They have completely become white men with no military merit and no money!
So when they heard that there were 10,000 Japanese pirates in Suzhou who wanted to rob and kill them, it¡¯s no wonder that these guys went crazy with displeasure!
When the news spread, the two thousand Guards cavalry all cheered, as if what was waiting for them was not ten thousand Japanese pirates, but ten thousand white and tender girls!
However, Cao Ling and the three guards were not just happy. While they ordered the soldiers to prepare their weapons, they gathered together to discuss how to wipe out these ten thousand Japanese pirates cleanly!
Although Cao Ling brought out cavalry this time, because the infantry of the Guards had just been formed at that time, Cao Ling and his cavalry also received infantry square formation training, so this time Cao Ling and others came out, each with a musket. , ammunition, and even thirty steel tiger squatting cannons!
This squatting tiger cannon is a small artillery, two feet long and weighing thirty-six kilograms. The cast-iron tiger squatting cannon is reinforced with seven iron hoops. It fires one three-liang heavy lead bullet and one hundred five-cent heavy lead bullets at a time. Small iron filings, the range is about 500 steps!
Because of its small size and light weight, this kind of artillery is extremely suitable for combat in complex terrain. It can also be easily equipped with a large number of grassroots troops. It is a very important firearm for the infantry of the Ming Army. The reason why it is called the Tiger Crouching Artillery is because there is a bracket at the front of this kind of artillery. When the artillery is fired, it looks like a tiger squatting, hence the name!
The steel Tiger Crouching Cannon equipped by the Guards has been extended to three feet and five inches in length without changing the weight, and its caliber has also been increased from three inches to one foot. It uses a mixture of gunpowder and iron filings, bundled into Pancake-shaped ammunition!
That¡¯s right!
This is the new Ming Dynasty Crouching Tiger Cannon modified by Zhu Youxiao after imitating the "Heartless Cannon". During the test firing process, this thing really surprised a lot of people. Although the range is only three hundred steps, it is more powerful than the original Tiger Cannon. The squatting cannon is more than a hundred times bigger!
??Just imagine, when a two-kilogram thing made of one and a half kilograms of gunpowder and half a kilogram of iron filings tied together explodes in the crowd, what a sour and refreshing scene it is?
With these equipment, Cao Ling felt that not to mention facing 10,000 Japanese pirates, even facing 100,000 Japanese pirates, his two thousand men were enough to defeat them!
As for the 10,000 people, they must be completely and completely annihilated!
In order to achieve this goal, Cao Ling made the following arrangements:
1. This battle will involve an infantry phalanx to engage the enemy, using firearms to kill a large number of Japanese pirates!
2. In Gesleng Town in front of the enemy, keep all the horses in the army together and keep a distance of one mile from the main formation. Try not to be discovered by the Japanese pirates!
Third, when the Japanese pirates couldn't hold on anymore and collapsed and ran away, Gesleng Town acted as the vanguard to pursue them, and the rest mounted their horses to pursue them!
Fourth, the combat goal is to completely annihilate the Japanese pirates!
As for what to do if the war fails, Cao Ling has never thought about it!
In Cao Ling¡¯s words: ¡°If we can¡¯t defeat 10,000 Japanese pirates with the guys we have, then we guys will just wipe our necks!¡±
With this extremely excited mood, two thousand Guards cavalry turned towards Soviet Union with red eyes.They rushed in the ?? direction, but because of the drag of the convoy, they couldn't go any faster. This made Cao Ling very anxious, but he couldn't seriously abandon Li Jinzhong and Wang Shitou!
Facing the already anxious Cao Ling, Li Jinzhong and Wang Shitou could only smile carefully, for fear that this man would throw them away in a hurry.
There are 10,000 Japanese pirates in Suzhou. Without the protection of the army, if you encounter one or two thousand Japanese pirates wandering around, they will be nothing!
Fortunately, Cao Ling could still suppress the throbbing in his heart and always protected the large convoy as it moved forward slowly. However, this situation completely broke when it was thirty miles away from Suzhou!
At that time, Ye Buzuo, who was sent out by Cao Ling, met a group of 100 Japanese pirates on the official road. When the two sides met, they fought for a while. Although Ye Buzuo only had ten people, he relied on his fast horses, sharp knives, and powerful bows and crossbows. Killed more than thirty people on the other side and drove away this group of Japanese pirates!
This group of Ye Bu Suan also started to kill. They sent people to report to Cao Ling and pursued them one after another. However, when Cao Ling came up with his army, he saw several Ye Bu Suan who were vomiting on the side of the official road!
Cao Ling was also shocked when he saw these gangsters acting like this, and immediately asked: "You guys made horses piss? Why are you so virtuous?"
The head of the night pointed at the lower part of the official road, and then started retching again!
Cao Ling didn't know why, so he rushed forward in the direction pointed by Ye Buhuan's head. However, before he could run far, Cao Ling saw thick smoke billowing in front of him. When he got closer, he saw a small ruined village. !
This small village is not big, with only seventy or eighty households. Now all the houses in the village have been burned into ruins. In those houses that are still smoking, you can vaguely see many burnt corpses!
And on a big tree at the entrance of the village, several naked women were nailed to the trunk with wooden sticks. Not only were they humiliated, but the flesh on their bodies was also cut off alive!
And the several steaming cauldrons propped up at the entrance of the village showed where the flesh and blood of those women had gone!
Ahem¡ª¡ª
Suddenly, a woman who was nailed to a tree coughed a few times and opened her eyes weakly!
Cao Ling quickly jumped off the horse and wanted to save her, but seeing her body with bones exposed, Cao Ling knew that this woman would not survive, and living now was just painful torture for her!
Cao Ling gritted his teeth, pulled out the short knife from his waist, walked up to the woman, and roared like a wild beast: "I, Cao Ling, will avenge you, and those Japanese pirates will go down soon and treat you like cattle and horses! "
The dagger pierced the woman's heart. Although the woman didn't say a word, her eyes finally showed relief and gratitude.
That look in his eyes made Cao Ling feel like a big hand was squeezing his heart!
???????????????????
ah¡ª¡ª
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, mixed with a scream of terror, attracted everyone's attention!
What caught the eye was a large pot that had been kicked over by a war horse, and what was exposed inside was the bodies of three babies mixed with soup! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
