Well, I have to open my mouth again and ask for the support of all book friends. Haha, if you have Sanjiang votes, please vote for me. Don’t ask for the top, just don’t be at the bottom.
Large, dense black clouds gradually expanded and shrouded them like a lead-colored curtain. The sound of thunder also came closer and closer, but it seemed as if it was tightly surrounded by thick clouds and struggling to escape. The sound was dull and slow.
"It's going to rain." Xian Guoan frowned and looked at the cannon soldiers guarding the wall and the artillery set up, and couldn't help but feel worried.
Just as Zhu Yongxing estimated, the gunpowder of the Qing army was seriously affected by moisture during the rainy season, but not all of it failed. Moreover, the Qing army almost lost confidence in the use of firearms in the rainy season and was not active in baking and drying. But it is better than nothing.
If you are strong, fire a few cannons and shoot a few rounds with a blunderbuss, you will always kill the Ming army and make the Ming army realize the difficulty of attacking the fortress.
But if it rains, the artillery and cannons will become almost useless. This is what worries the national security.
"There is a way of saying that wood overcomes earth (poking), earth overcomes water (covering), water overcomes fire (pouring), fire overcomes metal (burning), and metal overcomes wood (cutting)." However, the staff beside Xian Guoan showed joy on his face and handed him his hands.
Xian Guoan said: "Fake Ming belongs to the virtue of fire, and the array used also belongs to Yang, using Yang to help the fire. And Da Qing belongs to the virtue of water, so it should be replaced by He. Heavy rain is about to fall, which is not only harmless, but also very beneficial. It is destroying the fake
The fire of light helps the yin of our military formation."
Chinese dynasties since the Han Dynasty have all had a moral code. From the previous dynasty to the later dynasty, they have followed the order of the Five Elements. You conquer me, and I will conquer you again. This is not only a psychological effect, but also shows the legitimacy of replacing it.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was surnamed Zhu. Zhu is red, and red belongs to fire, which means that it is his surname Zhu who should rule the world. As for Huang Taiji, he changed his country name to "Qing" and his family name to "Manzhou". I think he got the advice of an expert, and the three
Water, I haven't put out your fire yet!
Xian Guoan's face suddenly turned bright and he smiled and said: "What you said is true. The enemy has stopped moving forward when they see our Yin×men formation. If there is any help from the rain, they will definitely retreat without success."
……………
"It's going to rain." Bai Wenxuan, Ma Bao and others all frowned. When they broke through the Gudong Camp, Zhu Yongxing had to wait for the rain to stop. He was afraid that it would be the same now, but he didn't know when he would have to wait.
"Go and report to His Highness that heavy rain will fall. Should our army retreat and camp, and then attack again after the rain stops." Bai Wenxuan called the messenger and gave the order with some anxiety.
"My lord, do you want to set up camp first?" After Ma Bao waited for the ordering soldiers to leave, he whispered to Bai Wenxuan: "If we wait for His Highness's order to come, I'm afraid it will already rain heavily. I guess Your Highness will have to wait until the rain stops.
Able to bombard and attack."
Bai Wenxuan shook his head slightly and explained: "Your Majesty ordered us to cut down trees and thatch for building tents. How could we know that we didn't intend to attack while it was raining? If we didn't have an order, how could we make such a decision lightly?"
Ma Bao was shocked and quickly said: "What the prince said is true. It was my lack of consideration that almost made a big mistake."
Bai Wenxuan smiled and patted Ma Bao's arm and said: "Don't easily speculate on what His Highness is thinking, let alone make your own opinions. If you go to Annan with Your Highness after the war, you should bear my words in mind."
Bai Wenxuan and Ma Bao had a very good relationship. Presumably, they were both from Gansu and Shaanxi, and they were both communists. Historically, Ma Bao entered the camp alone, and finally persuaded Bai Wenxuan to surrender, ending Bai Wenxuan's resistance to the Qing Dynasty.
road.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kind words." Ma Bao nodded gratefully, and then asked with a little doubt: "His Highness Min, you want me to accompany you to Annan? This matter has not been finalized yet, right?"
"Your Highness should have this intention." Bai Wenxuan revealed in a low voice: "It's just that we are still observing and weighing it. You have to do it properly."
"Thank you, thank you so much, Your Majesty, for your advice." Ma Bao was overjoyed and held his hands in thanks.
Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan will definitely not leave Yunnan Province lightly. The person with the highest title next to Zhu Yongxing is Ma Bao, the county king, or Liu Zhen, who succeeded to the title. However, Liu Zhen is a junior and cannot overpower Ma Bao. In this way,
How could Ma Bao not be reused? Thinking of this, Ma Bao couldn't stop smiling, and the approaching heavy rain didn't seem to be an important thing.
……………
The sky was already covered with dark clouds, and it was already dark before the hour. A bolt of lightning pierced the dark clouds, huge thunder rolled through the low clouds, and the rain came down overwhelmingly.
Even with an oilcloth to protect him from the rain, Zhu Yongxing felt the cold air coming over him. He wiped the rain off his face, straightened his back again, and continued to move forward expressionlessly.
Whether it's hard or not, think about the Red Army's 25,000; whether it's tired or not, look at the revolutionary veterans. Zhu Yongxing thinks so, but he can't say so. Marching in the rain is difficult, but it is not a kind of exercise. Do not experience various harsh environments
How can we create an army that cannot be defeated or defeated?
With a glance, Zhu Yongxing saw a limping figure in the formation. He didn't know whether the soldier had sprained his foot or worn out his shoes. After thinking for a moment, Zhu Yongxing shook the reins and walked quickly for a few steps, then dismounted from his horse and turned around to look.
And he stretched out his hand to stop the soldier.
"Your Highness——" The soldier didn't know why. He made a military salute and wanted to kneel down.
"No need." Zhu Yongxing reached out and grabbed his arm, smiled faintly, and said, "Is your foot injured? Come and ride my horse."
Ah? The soldiers of the Ming army were startled. They quickly shrank back, knelt down, and yelled randomly: "Young one, I don't dare to kill you, and I don't dare to ride His Highness's thousand-year-old horse. I'm young."
If you can keep up, you can really keep up."
"Stop talking nonsense, this is an order." Zhu Yongxing saw that the guard captain Yang Guoxiang had also dismounted, stood beside him, threw the reins of the horse to him, and said: "Help him get on the horse, I can just walk."
"Your Highness, you ride your subordinate's horse, your subordinate -" Yang Guoxiang finally realized what he was doing and said hurriedly, but Zhu Yongxing was already striding forward through the mud.
Yang Guoxiang grinned helplessly and kicked the soldier who was still kneeling in the mud angrily, "Get up, you are really, really damn lucky to have His Highness give you the horse. Don't wait, no.
I'll wait for you here, ride my horse."
Zhu Yongxing strode forward, always riding a horse, and his physical strength was quite well preserved. Moreover, he had taken the time to exercise on horseback for a while, but the time was still short. After riding for a long time, his thighs were still burning and painful.
.Now I am walking and driving, and I don’t feel any hardship at all.
Alas, I have become hypocritical. Zhu Yongxing smiled mockingly to himself, pulled up his oilcloth hood, and refused the requests of many personal guards to give up their horses, including Yang Guoxiang who was catching up.
Slowly, these guards who did not dare to ride horses and followed on foot also began to look for the exhausted Ming soldiers in the queue and gave up their horses to others. When Zhang Guoyong and other cavalrymen in the van learned about this, they also jumped down silently
War Horse, learn from the practices of Zhu Yongxing and others.
Improve the status of soldiers, change the generals' opinions and habits, and make the army a united and mutually supportive group. Let's start now! Zhu Yongxing pursed his lips and smiled, and his steps became more powerful.
