I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Of the 200,000 troops, only 50,000 were armed with firearms.

As for the remaining 150,000 people, they still use swords and shields.

And this kind of army can still be regarded as an elite in this area of ​​Southeast Asia.

There are still many bamboo weapons in the Nanzhang army next door. Don't be surprised to see their soldiers take to battle with a big stick.

While Li Chao was fighting against Mo Chao in the south, he also had leisure to conquer Nanzhang.

Today's Nanzhang is a vassal state of the Li Dynasty in Annan. It is also quite funny. The Li Dynasty is about to be destroyed by Dahua.

At the end of April, Li Shenglong launched an attack on the frontier towns of Shijin, Kefu and Taiping in Beijiang.

The Hua army set up defense lines in these three places, garrisoned three regiments with nearly 5,000 troops.

Li Shenglong invested 60,000 people in this wave of attacks, including 20,000 firearms troops.

The 20,000 people attacked the assortment stationed by Nie Ping, which was Li Shenglong's key target.

As for Kefu and Taiping Town, they used cold weapons to contain and infiltrate them.

If the defenders in the area of ​​Kefu and Taiping go to Shijin for support, the Annan people can also take advantage of the huge number of people to attack the Huajun's position and take their lives to fill in a victory.

What's more, Nie Ping is instructing the recruited civilians to dig trenches and build defensive positions.

They did not stay in the town, but went to a highland next to the town.

Although the terrain of this highland is not dangerous, it has more or less terrain advantages.

One of his regiments, more than 1,600 people, was stationed on this mountain and was responsible for containing the enemy troops.

As long as the front position of Shijin is not lost, the enemy will not be able to cross Shijin and go to the south bank of the Cang River to set up a defense line, and the large troops of the Hua Army will be able to cross the river smoothly.

In fact, for Huajun, the loss of Shijin is not a big deal.

Whether it is crossing the river or sieging the city, as long as it is a large-scale decisive battle, the Hua army does not need to worry too much.

They have an absolute strength advantage, and there are many tactics to choose from.

However, Nie Ping asked his subordinates to stick to the assortment.

In his words, if they encounter Annan's troops and have to flee and retreat, then their troops will have no face to see anyone in the army in the future.

Although he said this, in fact, Nie Ping wanted to show the enemy's weakness, attract the enemy to attack, and then consume the elite troops of the Annan people.

Although Annan has experienced a long period of war, the population has plummeted.

However, due to the large population base, the population at this time is still too large, and the number of troops is too large. It is easier to eliminate some of them.

Only by destroying the main force of the Annan can force Annan to surrender.

On the nameless hill, a series of trenches were dug out and divided into several steps.

In the positions in front of the trenches, mines and barbed wire were also arranged.

The only thing Nie Ping had to worry about was the enemy rushing in front of his troops for hand-to-hand combat, so that their numerical disadvantage could not be compensated for.

As long as they don't let the enemy get close, they are safe. This time, they brought sufficient ammunition supplies.

"The magazines and grenades are to be dug to the right of the shooter."

"The bomb shelter needs to be dug deeper."

"It has to be bent a little here, and it can't be dug too straight."

The soldiers of the Chinese Army kept commanding the farmers, and there was actually a lot of knowledge in digging trenches.

It's like an ammunition stand in a foxhole, the location should be on the right and the height should be moderate. This makes it easier and faster for soldiers to change magazines and throw grenades in fierce battles.

"It turns out that there is still so much knowledge in fighting. The little old man is really knowledgeable."

An old Han peasant sighed that his father's generation was still living in the area of ​​Guangzhou. Later, he lost his land and owed usurious loans, so his family moved to Annan.

Now that Dahua has come over, he is also very actively cooperating with Hua Jun's work.

Hua Jun promised them that as long as Dahua controlled this place, he would be able to make him a small official such as the mayor of the village.

"Nonsense, you think that fighting is fighting with force, but now fighting is all about the brain."

Lou Dazhuang disdainfully showed off his knowledge in front of ordinary people, which made him feel relieved.

After the joint efforts of the soldiers and the people, their regiment finally completed the fortification before the enemy arrived.

On May 1, Li Shenglong's subordinate Hu Jinjun led two divisions to Shijin and launched an attack on Nie Ping's troops.

Before the charge, the Annan people shot a shell on the hill where the Chinese army was garrisoned.

This is the infantry and artillery coordination that Huajun taught them, and the Annan people learned it well.

It's just that, for the coordination of infantry and artillery, there must be enough artillery and ammunition to play well.

The artillery of the Hujin County Department only lasted for a while and then stopped. It was estimated that they were willing to shell, or there were not so many shells.

The gunfire stopped, and their infantry had rushed to the place two hundred meters away from the Chinese army.

The Huajun sounded the bugle, and the soldiers hiding in the air-raid shelter came out one after another.

The Annan people still used old red-clothed cannons, which did extremely limited damage to the soldiers in the air-raid shelter.

Except for a dozen hapless people who were killed by accident, no one else had anything to do.

This artillery attack by the Annan people is not so much to kill the enemy, but to embolden their army.

Chinese soldiers began to enter the trench to prepare for battle

, while the mortars had already started shelling.

Their vanguard did not bring those cumbersome mountain guns, but they did bring a lot of mortars. There were two battalions and a hundred mortars of different calibers.

More than a hundred artillery bombarded at the enemy troops who were swarming in.

It's really a random bombardment, you don't need to aim too accurately, just aim at the place where there are many people.

The power of the Chinese artillery shells is much more powerful than the blooming shells of the Annan people.

As soon as the gun went down, the soldiers a few meters around would all fall.

To make matters worse, Annan's soldiers lacked cover during the charge.

Without the cover of machine guns, the soldiers would not use the craters and boulders, but just rushed forward.

Such people are a group of living targets for Hua Jun.

The difficulty of Hua Jun shooting these people is even easier than shooting targets in daily training.

The targets when shooting are not as dense as the Annan people.

"Fire, free fire."

Following an order, the Chinese soldiers opened fire.

Immediately, gunfire erupted from the position.

The sound of machine guns, rifles, sniper guns, artillery, one after another.

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, there were casualties of the Annan, and a large number of soldiers fell in pieces.

Hua Jun taught them how to fight against Mo Chao's people, but did not teach them how to deal with the powerful Hua Jun.

The first time they fought against Hua Jun, they immediately suffered a big loss.

Before they even rushed in front of the Hua army, they left more than a thousand corpses and retreated.
