Chapter 533 Their cannonballs are running out, right?

Compared with the perfect military professions in later generations, the division of military forces in the Ming Dynasty seemed very rough.

For example, the later navy had very detailed divisions of front-line combat troops, including those responsible for causing trouble on the ship, and those responsible for landing and robbing the beach.

The Ming Dynasty did not have this statement. The killing talents who played guns and cannons on the boat didn't mind participating in the beach landing and killing people.

Anyway, chopping people on the boat and chopping people on land is basically the same thing, just cut people to death.

But now they are much stronger than before. At least the soldiers of the guards dispatched by Southern Zhili are good at majesticism and are trained to cut people with swords and can barely be competent as Marines.

This time, the landing and rushing to establish a position was to establish a position with the Southern Imperial Guard as the vanguard, under the cover of artillery fire of the South China Sea Fleet, and then allow other guards to land.

The Southern Imperial Army acted as the vanguard, and Chen Biao, the vanguard of the Southern Imperial Army, shouted loudly after receiving the order: "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Take out your energy on the women!"

Amid the loud laughter, the soldiers of the Southern Imperial Army were ready to teach the Franji barbarians on the shore a lesson.

The soldiers rushed out of the cabin one by one, but Chen Biao unexpectedly found that there was a soldier still in a daze.

He was actually dazed at this time? The furious Chen Biao rushed behind the soldier and kicked him: "Ergouzi! What are you fucking thinking!"

Ergouzi is very famous in the entire Southern Imperial Army. There are basically few people who don’t know him from top to bottom, not only because of the name Ergou.

In fact, Wang Ergou was very dissatisfied with his name and made several fuss with his brother named Wang Dagou to change his name. However, Wang's father and mother ignored the strong demand for the two brothers to change their names based on the principle of being cheap and easy to support them. Wang Ergou was filled in on the list of the garrison.

It makes sense that it is easy to support a bad reputation. At least it is the most perfect embodiment of Wang Ergou, who can eat and drink, has a high height and strength, and rarely suffers from illness.

After beating a few idiots who laughed at their names without success, Wang Ergou had no choice but to accept Ergouzi, a very intimate name.

Wang Ergou can eat, not only can he eat, but also can endure hardships. However, even the most edible Wang Ergou can still eat, the Ming army that has become rich, and can fight and endure hardships, quickly stood out among the army that is big.

Shen Zhenjiang was very optimistic about Ergouzi and specially took him from Jubaoshan Guard to the Southern Imperial Guard, allowing him to receive training that was several times higher than Jubaoshan Guard's training.

Wang Ergou is indeed successful, and Shen Zhenjiang's attention is worthy. The high-intensity training did not overwhelm this man who could eat, but instead became more and more outstanding in the army.

If Wang Ergou hadn't even recognized the shoulder pole, it would be a word. Shen Zhenjiang would really want to promote Ergou and let him go to the martial arts lecture school to learn to be a qualified officer.

Wang Ergou, who never lost his chain in training, finally lost his chain. The gentleman in the army only commented on Wang Ergou with six simple words. It is impossible to carve the rotten wood!

Wang Ergou, who had studied in the Southern Imperial Army for a total of one and a half years, has only learned to write his own name like an earthworm.

Shen Zhenjiang had no choice but to give up, so he could only arrange Wang Ergou to the elite vanguard army. The possibility of further success was gone, even if he made military achievements.

According to the current requirements of the Five Army Governor's Office, you must be able to read and write from the beginning of the small flag. When you reach the position of a hundred households, you can at least understand the Chinese military documents and even write simple official documents.

Wang Ergou can't even write his own name well, and he can only be a big soldier honestly in his life, and he has no hope of making a comeback.

But Wang Ergou was already very satisfied. He used to be a good person and lived a day. He couldn't even make up a set of clothes at home without patches, and the farm work in the fields was done in two ways.

During the day, Ergouzi was wearing the house and changing it again and again, and then he had to do the patches and tortured clothes. At night, Ergouzi's father went to the field with his butt naked.

In this way, families often have few days to eat when they are full, and the more work they do, the more they can eat. In the beginning of spring, even locust flowers and elm seeds are good things. They are mixed with coarse noodles and steamed into steamed buns, which can at least fool them.

But I still can't eat enough, as if I don't have enough food.

After all, you have to pay taxes and taxes and land rent. It is normal to not eat enough, but it is strange to eat enough.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, at least the remaining food in the family has been reduced and various taxes have been reduced and exempted. As long as we are willing to put in our efforts, our family can always have a full meal.

Later, life became better. As a large number of people moved to Xinming Island and Liaodong, land rents also dropped again and again from 60% of the initial land rent to 50%, then 40%, and finally to 30%.

The sharply reduced land rent finally gave the family enough food, not only could they eat enough, but they could also cut two taels of meat during the Chinese New Year to see meat.

Especially salt, you can buy fine salt that can last a family for a long time with a few cents, which is far from comparable to coarse salt in the past.

I ate too much salt and occasionally meat, so I seem to have more strength than before, and I feel a lot of energy when I do my work.

But there is an old saying that goes well, think about it with fullness and warmth.

When I eat full, I have more thoughts.

When I was not full, I was thinking about how to fill my stomach, but now I was thinking about how to get some money to marry a wife.

Just as Nanzhili was recruiting soldiers, Wang Ergou bit his heart and made up his mind and joined the army.

It is impossible to go to Liaodong, although many of the guys who went to Liaodong returned to their hometowns with a lot of money, and even a few guys with a bunch of money bought a few Silla maids as concubines.

But there are many people who never come back, and they don’t come back, and they don’t even have a title.

Compared with the treatment of being able to enter the Martyrs' Temple to enjoy blood food after death, Wang Ergou felt that he should join the army. Even the fewer people who made a lot of money in Liaodong were still much less. After all, he was the emperor's person.

Some stubborn Wang Ergou thinks that it is natural to be the emperor's soldiers, eat the emperor's food, and work hard for the emperor, not to mention that the benefits brought to his family after the emperor ascended the throne are truly felt.

As for the eggless military officers who said loyalty to the emperor and defending the country, Wang Ergou only remembered loyalty to the emperor, and the rest passed away with the wind.

Wang Ergou, who was kicked by Chen Biao, shook his head suddenly and rushed out of the cabin with the other brothers.

I was distracted just now and couldn't tell whether it was nervous or scared.

Military camp training is one thing, but it is another thing when you really get to the battlefield. The elites on the training ground may not be heroes when you get to the battlefield.

The killing talents who come out of the sea of ​​blood can be called heroes. They have a murderous aura on weekdays, which is scary and scary. Those who have never been on the battlefield can only be called rookies.

Even the standards for the selection of soldiers refer to the New Army and the North and South Imperial Guards of the Beijing Camp, because most of them are rookies who have never been on the battlefield, which is far less daunting than the New Army and the Beijing Camp.

Wang Ergou is such a rookie. His first time on the battlefield was to go to Luzon. With the endless shelling just now, Wang Ergou's soul flew out with the shells.

Wang Ergou felt that he was nervous rather than afraid. After all, he had seen the scene of fire flying in the training ground, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

However, the unconscious fingers that were pinching tightly turned a little white because of the force, still revealed the nervousness and fear in Wang Ergou's heart.

In fact, they were all nervous. Not only Wang Ergou was the same, but the entire Southern Imperial Guard, except for the veterans who were originally transferred from the Beijing Camp and the New Army, the rest were almost the same.

As for the veterans transferred from the Beijing camp and the new army, after following Emperor Chongzhen to angrily criticize Jiannu and expedition to Mongolia, they no longer took their lives seriously.

Of course, these killers will not take other people's lives seriously.

Looking at the soldiers around them who seemed to be completely new recruits in the eyes of the Beijing camp and the new army, Liu Wu, the general flag transferred by the new army, smiled and said, "Scared? Nervous? I told you that this is all nonsense!

Think about the things you have trained and the tortures you have suffered. I promise you that on the battlefield, you only need to listen to the orders and let you open fire. The one who dies must be the barbarian on the opposite side!"

Wang Ergou touched his head and asked, "How do you know?"

Liu Wu snorted coldly and said, "At that time, I followed His Majesty and chopped five barbarians on the grassland with my own hands!

At that time, I was still using a knife! Now look at the guys in your hands, they are so strong that they are not sure where they go. Before they can shoot you, you can shoot them to death first. I’m afraid of nothing!”

While Liu Wu was carelessly scolding these rookies who had been on the battlefield for the first time, he walked forward without caring, without even a trace of attention to preventing them.

As the saying goes, a soldier is a slump. Seeing his own general's attitude, the remaining soldiers are greatly at peace.

Seeing that the distance was almost over and moving forward was almost out of the range of the fleet, Liu Wu stopped and ordered: "Don't worry, just take the time to build a position and let the brothers behind go ashore!"

After saying that, he found a place that was not in trouble. He ignored the hard work of the "new recruits" and fell asleep instead.

Another general flag transferred from the Beijing Camp saw Liu Wu like this, so he simply followed suit. He kicked and scolded the new recruits to work hard labor and also got up.

However, the two general flags' unworried appearance gave the soldiers of the Southern Imperial Army great confidence. If there was danger, these two guys would definitely not sleep like this!

After waiting for a rough construction of a fortification, or simply getting some bunkers, the soldiers on the lucky ship began to come continuously in the direction where the fortification was.

It was not until this time that the two veterans Youzi Zongqi got up from the ground and went to find the hundred-household officials to report.

After the Hundred Houses, Thousand Houses landed and continued to build defensive fortifications. Only when all the soldiers of the guards arrived later were all considered to be the one who stopped building defensive fortifications.

The constant artillery fire on the Ming army made Sanchez's heart twitch.

It's so damn bourgeoisie. If you all look like the Ming army in wars, even if you have worked hard to defeat a large colony and have a ball for it? The benefits you get are not enough to get the money for the shells!

But these deepened Sanchez's determination to attack the Mingmin's southeast coast. As long as this time it could destroy the navy of these Ming barbarians, their southeast coast would become a beauty stripped naked!

As for whether the barbarians in the Ming Dynasty would have a second fleet, Sanchez said this was unlikely.

How many fleets does the entire Spain have in total? A fleet usually has only three or five warships.

The Ming barbarian navy in front of us has twenty-four warships plus a bunch of supply ships, which are already five large-scale fleets!

As long as these savage army could be killed in Luzon, no matter how terrible their remaining fleet was, it would not be a concern.

To put it bluntly, people are still fighting in wars, and how many people can the twenty-four warships have? What's more, the naval fleet on his side is not the only ones that were sunk by these barbarians who bypass Luzon and three fleets hiding, and the Spanish Navy has five fleets rushing over to support. The number of warships is not less than that of the barbarian naval warships.

What's more, the sharks in East India who will come over when they smell the blood must not miss such a good opportunity. They have been coveting the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty for a day or two. At worst, the two families can be divided!

The only problem is how much benefit it is to give to the greedy Judahs of the Dutch East India Company.

Seeing that the Ming soldiers were still landing continuously, Sanchez put aside the messy thoughts in his heart and ordered Akunia who was standing aside and waiting for his orders: "Order!"

Akunia was excited and responded: "Yes!"

Sanchez said: "Order the front line troops to prepare, and as soon as the artillery fire of these savages stops, they will immediately take the initiative to attack them!

Order the second line of defense to prepare artillery fire and cover when the soldiers on the first line of defense attack. Once the attack fails, make a response when the soldiers on the first line of defense retreat!"

Akunia asked, "Governor General, isn't it okay for us to wait for the savages to die on the line? Their artillery fire support is very strong!"

Sanchez shook his head and said, "The artillery fire will eventually stop. According to their style of play, their shells should not be enough. What the soldiers on the first line of defense have to do is to disrupt their arrangements when they are unstable.
