Chapter 444

Liu Bu attaches great importance to his lineage of Liu Jiajun. That is, those who join Liu Jiajun must be Han people. Only Han people are qualified to join Liu Jiajun. Although these Mongols have the intention to join Liu Jiajun, they are not directly included in Liu Jiajun, but become Liu Jiajun's Foreign Legion.

The so-called foreign legion, also known as the mercenary corps, can enjoy the same benefits as Liu Jiajun, but they can not be included in the formal Liu Jiading army.

The income of Foreign Legions is similar to that of Liu Jiajun. They usually enjoy Liu Jiajun's package of food and housing, and they also have fixed military pay. However, if they want additional military pay, they must get it through war. Liu Jiajun also has his set of calculation methods, and the most direct thing is to cut off the heads of JianNu, If they can rescue the people who fled to Shandong or protect the good people on the territory of southern Liaoning, they can also get rewards. Their rewards are also very rich, and their income is often higher than that of the regular Liu Jiajun.

It is because of such good welfare and treatment that Bu rigude gathered a large number of outlaws under him. These outlaws roared on the land of southern Liaoning, but JianNu had a headache. If they were ordinary people, they would have been exterminated by Amin and Shang Kexi, but the other party was a fierce horse thief, and they could eat and sleep on horseback, Often before your army is dispatched, they know that if a small group of troops go after them, it is simply sending vegetables.

At first, they thought that the brigands of Burigude were just bandits and brigands, just to survive in this territory. Once upon a time, both Amin and several other big men came up with the idea of recruiting each other. They could make each other work for themselves through recruitment. Who knew that the other was a foreign aid of the Ming army after they handed in their hands several times, Every time they fought, they would cut off JianNu's head and sell it for money.

However, because they were all horse thieves, they came and went like the wind, which brought great inconvenience to their elimination. These people wandered on the land of the four guards in southern Liaoning. They came from the wind and specialized in attacking the weak links of building slaves, but they suffered a lot. This time, the Liu family army landed and quickly seized the beachhead position with their help, Now he is playing a forward for Liu Jiajun.

Moreover, these horse thieves are also equipped with regular cavalry of Liu Jiajun, Foreign Legions of Burigude and Mongolian mercenaries. They are still good at using their bows and arrows. Their range of bows and arrows is similar to that of JianNu. Both sides can fight on an equal footing and win or lose each other every time, but the cavalry of the Ming army are different. The cavalry of the Ming army are good at using fire guns, A man on horseback uses two muskets alternately.

Liu Jiajun's advantage is that they use a large number of fire guns. Liu Jiajun's fire guns are not called fire guns like those of the Ming army. Their fire guns are already called fire guns. This is because their range is twice as large as that of the ordinary fire guns of the Ming army, and their fire speed is twice as fast, which gives them a great advantage, Moreover, JianNu was used to shooting the Ming army from 60 to 70 steps away. Now Liu Jiajun can shoot JianNu within 100 steps, which made JianNu suffer a lot of losses. In the battle between small groups of troops on both sides, JianNu ended up losing.

Amin saw that before the two sides had fought, he broke an ox record, which made him very angry. He just whipped ejito. He said, "it's a useless waste. You can't take it against a group of horse thieves. You dare to eat so much money and food for nothing. If you can't kill this group of horse thieves in one day, bring your head to see me!"

Amin felt unhappy after he scolded, kicked him away, and then angrily returned to his Chinese army tent, continued to drink and continue to play with the woman he robbed.

Ejito left Amin's camp with a bitter face. Amin was very capable of fighting and was very fierce and good at fighting, but his temper was also very big and very difficult to serve. The other jialae couldn't stand his bull temper at all, so they were attracted by Huang Taiji and separated from him. Like now, he didn't ask for mercy at all, He gave himself a few whips and limited such a big task. How can he finish it?

Ejito returned to his camp and summoned some of his assistant leaders to discuss with them how to eliminate these horse thieves tomorrow. If they can't eliminate each other, they can't have an advantage and will be in a passive state in the decisive battle tomorrow.

Who knows, they haven't discussed any good results at all. There was a cry of killing in the military camp. It turned out that it was Mongolian horse thieves and the Ming army who took the initiative to attack their Chinese army camp. The other party broke into their camp accounts from several places, burned many camps and killed many people, which made them unprepared and chaotic.

Amin drank a lot of wine and tossed two women. Just after he went to bed, he met the Ming army to rob the camp. He was very angry when he heard that many camps were burned and many people were killed. He just gave two whips to ejito. He said: "How do you manage the barracks? You don't know if others steal the barracks. You don't hurry to hunt them down. I don't care where these bastards come from, but you have to choke them to death in the cesspit."

Facing the order of the flag leader, ejito dared not disobey him. He immediately ordered his men to pursue and kill. As a result, when their troops chased out, they were ambushed by the Ming army Musketeers. The Ming army Musketeers had a great advantage against JianNu, because they could shoot JianNu out of range, but JianNu's bow and arrow were close to 70 or 80 steps later, Can hit each other. If it's night, it has to be further shortened.

Of course, the Ming army is not without shortcomings. Their muskets have a long range and great power, but one is that these guns have no rifling and can only hit human objects. It is a little difficult to aim at each other. They can only hit human objects, but the Ming army has his method, that is, three or four people as a team can shoot one target at the same time, This has greatly improved their hit rate, especially when small groups of soldiers fight, several muskets deal with a person and easily hit the target like a salvo of artillery. Their tactics have made JianNu suffer a lot. The JianNu troops who went out to pursue them have lost their troops and lost their strength. Instead of chasing the enemy, they were ambushed by the enemy, A lot of people.

Seeing such a situation, Amin was a little stunned. He was just grumpy. After all, he was a veteran on the battlefield. He knew that this Ming army was completely different from other Ming armies.

In addition, there will also be some Mongolian horse thieves in the Ming army as mercenaries to help them fight. For example, many generals in the Ming army were born in Mongols, because they were promoted one after another after fighting for the Ming army, but very few can have so many scales like Liu Jiajun. Moreover, Amin has moved to Baishan and Heishui in his life and has been with the Ming army countless times The Mongolian army and the Korean army have fought wars and have never suffered such losses. After suffering a great loss, he calmed down. He said: "order to cook at five o'clock tomorrow, leave the camp at dawn and fight to the death with the Ming army!"

Amin knows that the Ming army has a large number of firearms, so he also knows that he can't underestimate them. The Ming army's firearms are always a threat to them, because the Ming army can't suppress them from cold weapons, so he can only think of ways on hot weapons, but their hot weapons are shoddy goods, which don't work at all.

Moreover, Nurhachi, the leader of JianNu, is also a very wise and intelligent man. He knows that the firearms of the Ming army are very powerful. Especially when the two armies fight, the other side's fire guns come in rows, which can make the soldiers you charged fall in rows. Even if you wear iron armor, you can't block the fire guns and lead bullets fired by the other side.

These iron armor can resist bows and arrows, but they can't resist the shooting of these muskets, but their destiny Khan has come up with a good way, that is, and make the soldiers hold a huge shield or push a shield car when charging, which can block the enemy's muskets and bullets. As long as they push a shield car, close to the enemy and rush into the Ming army, They have basically decided on the overall situation and won.

At that time, on the Bank of Hunhe River under Shenyang City, they had a bloody battle with the Ming army. In this battle, the Ming army used the tactic of lengthening the spear with fire guns, which made them suffer a lot of losses. Therefore, JianNu made an explicit provision after this war, that is, they must use shield vehicles every time they engage in a frontal battle with the Ming army.

After a large number of shield vehicles were used, the number of casualties was greatly reduced every time their soldiers were in charge. This was also a tactic for them to deal with the fire guns and artillery of the Ming army.

Because the fire guns and artillery of the Ming army are too poor and shoddy to give full play to the advantages of firearms, in their eyes, these firearms and artillery are actually a joke. There is only one chance to shoot. In the war between the two armies, after you shoot, the enemy will rush into your position and slash and kill your soldiers.

So many soldiers of the Ming army had the idea that the so-called fire guns and artillery were actually the same goods. To deal with JianNu, they still had to rely on long knives and spears. Only big knives and spears were enough to deal with JianNu, such as the famous guanning iron cavalry, They thought that with their bows, arrows and long knives, this was the best way to deal with JianNu.

Of course, they are also using artillery reasonably. They put artillery on the city wall, which can indeed cause great harm to the siege slaves. However, in the Ming army, the corruption of officers is too serious and permeates all aspects. Most of the weapons in the Ming army are rough and shoddy, nominally so powerful weapons, In the actual play process, they simply failed to play the same level, and often caused things that hurt their own people, such as blasting, which led to a linear decline in the combat effectiveness of the Ming army.
