Above the school grounds, the roars of tens of thousands of tigers covered the sky and shook the mountains.
When the roar ended, the rapid war drums sounded again, resounding throughout the world.
Dong dong dong dong! One sound is faster than the other, and one sound is faster than the other.
The footsteps of the Ming Dynasty Tiger followed the rhythm of the drums, making the earth tremble.
In Zhu Yunxi's sight, he saw that as the flags on the general stage changed, the neat square formation on the school field also began to change.
The first row of black people advancing slowly like a mountain were infantrymen wearing heavy armor. Each person's body was covered with carefully crafted armor, and the iron sheets of the armor shone with carefully forged ripples under the sun.
To see whether an army can fight, the most intuitive judgment is the military appearance and the mental outlook of the soldiers. In Zhu Yunxi's sight, more than a dozen soldiers were walking neatly in a row, with firm eyes and burly bodies. There was murderous intent in the queue. At first glance,
It is a soldier of hundreds of battles.
Zhu Yunxi was just a little surprised. Is there such a neat queue in this era? But after thinking about it, he was relieved.
It's because I'm too rare and strange. Although the troops of this era are not as neat as those of later generations, and the formations are so inspiring. However, in this era, infantry relies on battle formations to fight and must gather on the battlefield.
Especially the Ming Dynasty. Since its inception, it has faced the Yuan Dynasty cavalry, which relied on cavalry and archery to dominate the world. If the infantry cannot maintain an orderly formation, how can they fight?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxi felt a little funny in his heart. Because he remembered those time-travel novels he had read. The books said that the ancients did not distinguish between left and right. Now it seems to be pure nonsense. If they don't distinguish between left and right, don't they distinguish between southeast and northwest?
In modern times, Zhu Yunxi really saw many people and couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.
Neat queues, solemn formations, and thundering footsteps. Soldiers wearing iron armor. The first row is a long-eight spear, and then there are heavy weapons such as iron axes, maces, and iron bones.
In modern times, some people say that due to the loss of forging technology, China cannot make samurai swords as sharp as those of Japan. This is actually not entirely true.
The scale of the Chinese war was too large. Hundreds of thousands of people were involved in the past dynasties. The samurai sword was obviously not suitable for large-scale equipment. Moreover, on the battlefield, both sides were heavily armored, and the samurai sword could only scratch the itch. The gun was the king of a hundred soldiers.
To break through the opponent's heavy armor, you need to use heavy weapons such as iron axes and hammers.
Besides, heavy weapons in battle are definitely more effective than blades. No matter what kind of samurai sword you have, if you hit it with a mace, it will be deformed immediately.
Ming Dynasty won!
As the heavy armored infantry advanced, they shouted in unison, and the light of their armor and weapons caused the heaven and earth to change color.
Your Highness, this is the mighty tiger army! Lan Yu said next to Zhu Yunxi, when the capital of the Yuan Dynasty was conquered, my brother-in-law, your grandfather, personally led the tiger mighty army to break through the city wall. The formation killed the Huai King Timur Buhua of the Yuan Dynasty, as well as the Taiwei.
Bald and unthinking.
As he spoke, Lan Yu lowered his voice and whispered, "The commander of the Huwei Army, Yuan Yi, and the deputy general, Yuan Xing, are both His Majesty's adopted sons. They both accompanied the prince to study in his early years."
Zhu Yunxi looked at the first two generals on horseback in the Huwei Army and nodded slightly.
Boom boom, before looking back, the hoofs of the war horse over there suddenly sounded like thunder.
Countless horse hooves thundered, and even the huge commanding platform seemed to shake.
Zhu Yunxi took a closer look, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty!
First, a flag, a large flag held high, with two vigorous and powerful Chinese characters of dragon and phoenix written on it.
Followed by countless tall horses were cavalry all wrapped in heavy armor. The advancing cavalry and horses all had iron armor, as if they were moving fortresses.
After the heavy armored cavalry, there were light cavalry wearing only chainmail. Most of the weapons in their hands were scimitars, but everyone carried a bow and arrow on their horse.
As the cavalry advanced, an arrogant air of contempt for the world rushed towards them. It seemed to say that with just one order, no matter who the enemy was, they would be reduced to powder under the iron hoof of the Ming Dynasty.
What surprised Zhu Yunxi even more was that there were many barbarians with braided hair in this Longxiang cavalry army.
Seemingly seeing the doubts in Zhu Yunxi's mind, Lan Yu smiled and said, "The Ming Dynasty is invincible, and many tribes outside the Great Wall have surrendered. Although these people are inconspicuous in our army, outside the Great Wall, they are the little princes of any tribe!"
Zhu Yunxi also smiled proudly. As a Ming Dynasty man who embraces all rivers, he deserves to be proud.
But the smile immediately solidified on his face, and the soldiers and horses behind the cavalry deeply attracted his attention. He took a few steps forward a little arrogantly, wanting to see the oncoming army more clearly.
artillery?
So many artillery pieces?
Oncoming was the Daming Shenji Battalion, and in front were soldiers carrying various firecrackers.
Zhu Yunxi was a soldier in his previous life, and he knew the history of the development of firearms.
During the Song Dynasty in China, the power of gunpowder was greatly improved and it was used as a military weapon.
Later, the Mongolian army broke through the capital of the Jin Dynasty and obtained from the palace these black technologies that the Jin Dynasty had taken from the Song Dynasty, and brought them to the Western Expedition.
During the three Mongolian Western Expeditions, artillery was used on a large scale. The Mongols blasted away the capital of the ancient Iranian dynasty with artillery, then wrapped the surrendered Alifa in blankets and trampled him to death.
It's just that Zhu Yunxi didn't expect that there were so many types of firearms in this era. The three-eye blunderbuss at the front was followed by a mouth blunderbuss.
These fire cannons are very different from the muskets of later generations, but the firing principle is the same, except that the caliber of the fire cannons of this era is larger. The caliber of the gun is like a large bowl, and it shoots iron sand fragments.
On the battlefield, this is equivalent to a shotgun, hitting a large area.
Zhu Yunxi watched intently. Behind the muskets came the artillery carts pulled by mules. The wheels of the heavy artillery made the sound of friction as they advanced.
The barrels were black and shiny, with characters cast on them. The various artillery pieces were of different lengths, which made Zhu Yunxi, a former soldier, feel itchy in his heart.
It turns out that Ming Dynasty’s firearms were so advanced? Zhu Yunxi murmured to himself.
The Ming Dynasty once again deeply shocked him. People in later generations knew that the Ming Dynasty was backward, full of corruption and shortcomings, and it seemed that the Ming Dynasty had entered a dead end in the feudal dynasty.
But the current Ming Dynasty is the most powerful in the country, the most powerful in the military, and the generals are sweeping the world with their swords. This is not the Ming that was later, where civil servants and eunuchs controlled the government, and the emperor was very lazy.
Hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, Lan Yu laughed loudly again.
This is how many artillery pieces there are. When I fought a decisive battle with the Northern Yuan Emperor in Mobei, I pretended to be alone and went deep into the army, leading the Yuan army's cavalry to attack. At that time, I stationed my troops on the high ground, using camels as a camel formation, with various artillery mounted on them.
Lan Yu was full of energy, as if she had returned to the battlefield at that time. The Yuan soldiers were dead on the ground, and the way to charge was blocked, but they couldn't rush over.
By the time the Yuan army realized something was wrong, the Ming army had already outflanked them! They later wanted to run away, but the camel formation withdrew. Chen led the 1,500 elite cavalry in the formation and rushed into their center!
Zhu Yunxi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he wished that Lan Yu could talk for three days and three nights, but this was not the time to talk. At this moment, the parade of the three armies reviewing had already finished. Under the guidance of the battle flag, he stood back to his original position like a nail.
land.
Gusts of wind blew by, and the battle flags clanked. Beside the battle flags were all the good men of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yunxi walked to the Dianjiang Platform, where there was an iron loudspeaker that could amplify the sound.
His Majesty ordered me to come and see the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who were about to go on an expedition! Zhu Yunxi made the loudest voice from his chest and generously said, Now, I have seen it. I have seen the heroes of the Ming Dynasty, I have seen the passionate sons, I have seen my hundred men of the Ming Dynasty.
The elites of the war have seen you heroes who have sacrificed your lives and blood for the Ming Dynasty!
On the school field, the eyes of countless soldiers lit up like flames.
