    After hearing what Cao Wenzhao said, Xiong Tingbi actually agreed. However, he squinted his eyes slightly and thought for a moment: "They can use three to five hundred people to demonstrate under the city, so this time they will have to hold back at least ten thousand people. It is better to start with  Let¡¯s find out the movements of their large army!¡±

    At this time, Han Siwen suddenly saluted and said: "Admiral, please order me to lead the gendarmerie to attack and destroy the Tatars in the city first!"

    Xiong Tingbi was stunned and was about to stop him when Han Siwen said again: "Admiral, my subordinates boasted so loudly just now. I'm afraid some people are not convinced. Why don't you ask the Admiral to give you a chance and let everyone see it?"  Your Majesty¡¯s military training methods are amazing!¡±

    At this point, Xiong Tingbi couldn't stop him. He could only nod and said: "I'm sure, but this is the first battle. If we can't win, my military law is not just for show!"

    Han Siwen put his feet together, raised his chest, saluted, and said loudly: "If you fail, you will be punished. So if we lose this battle, please ask the Admiral to ask your Majesty to send another military police!"

    The meaning of Han Siwen's words is very simple. If he cannot win, no one from the military police team he leads will come back. This kind of fearless energy makes Xiong Tingbi and the Jiuzhen Army excited and excited!

    "Okay!" Xiong Tingbi suddenly stood up and said loudly: "I personally go to the city wall to beat drums and cheer for you!"

    At this time, outside Wuding Gate in the north of Datong City, a group of more than 400 Mongolian cavalry were patrolling back and forth about half a mile away from the city wall.

    Wearing shabby leather robes, waving machetes, and howling from time to time, these Mongolian cavalry seemed to be laughing at the Ming army on the city wall!

    Although Mongolian cavalry came outside the city, there was no tense atmosphere in Datong City. Everyone knew that these Mongols were plundering the surrounding areas. They could not enter Datong City, so how should everyone live their lives?  !

    But just when everyone thought that this time it would be the same as before, that the four gates of Datong City would be closed and waiting for the Mongols to retreat on their own, a group of neatly arranged green armored cavalry arrived at Wuding Gate!

    "Where did this army come from? Why is it so organized?" Someone on the street looked at the cavalry and asked curiously!

    "I don't know. Anyway, they are not soldiers from Datong. I wonder what they are going to do?" Someone looked around and chatted!

    "What can they do? Just go up to the city wall and shout at the top of your voice. Do they dare to leave the city?" Someone else said disdainfully!

    At this moment, the three hundred green-armored cavalry lined up in two lines outside Wuding Gate. Han Siwen immediately rode in front of the army and shouted loudly: "Since your Majesty personally trained our Han army, you have suffered so much.  The consequences of the sins you have committed will be reflected today. There are Mongolian Tatars outside the door. For the glory of my emperor, you will kill with me!"

    Three hundred military policemen suddenly drew their sabers, held them in front of their chests, and shouted in unison: "For the glory of our emperor!"

    The sabers of these three hundred military policemen are not the long swords commonly used in the Ming Dynasty army, nor are they the embroidered spring swords specially used by Jinyiwei. They are the sabers of later generations drawn by Zhu Youxiao and made by craftsmen in the manufacturing office with stamping hammers.  .

    The characteristics of this kind of knife are that the blade is long and narrow with a certain arc, the tip of the knife has an arc-cut angle, the handle has a semicircular guard, and there is a half-inch cone-shaped bumper at the end of the guard.  horn.

    Originally, when Zhu Youxiao took out this kind of knife, Li Laohan from the Manufacturing Office also raised objections. He thought that such a knife was too thin. If he wanted to win the impact of the enemy's blade in a horse battle, he must  To make it into a full steel knife, it also requires hundreds of steel refinements!

    However, considering the production capacity and manpower of the manufacturing office, it is not easy to refine this kind of steel. There are even fewer experts who can make hundreds of steel. In the end, Li Laohan came to the conclusion that  , if Zhu Youxiao must use this kind of knife to equip 50,000 soldiers, he only needs to wait thirty years!

    However, after Zhu Youxiao came up with the small blast furnace steelmaking method and the power stamping hammer, Li Laohan and the craftsmen in the manufacturing office completely shut up. The small blast furnace was Zhu Youxiao's imitation of later generations of New China's large-scale steelmaking in the 1950s.  At that time, the small brick blast furnace used, coupled with the refined coke provided enough heat, directly increased the steel production of the manufacturing office by more than ten times!

    The stamping hammer is even simpler. It is to build a hydraulic or animal-powered winch, use gear linkage to lift the 50-pound hammer head to a certain height and then drop it freely. This can provide continuous and stable knocking, allowing hundreds of steelmaking  Become an easy craft!

    After the first batch of sabers were made, the manufacturing office excitedly conducted a destructive test. The results proved that this brand-new saber was not only sharp but also full of toughness. It could easily cut off the Ming army's long swords in cavalry battles.  Knife and Mongol scimitarThe sword actually broke into two pieces immediately after touching the opponent's long and narrow sword. Then the opponent's sword would easily cut through their leather armor and cut them into two pieces!

    But some clever Mongolian cavalry cleverly bypassed the opponent's sword and slashed their opponent with their own scimitar, but they could only see a flash of sparks, and then the Ming army who was hit was as if nothing happened.  And passed!

    With advanced steel-making technology, Zhu Youxiao naturally did not only think about offensive weapons. Defensive armor also entered his consideration list. However, the thick Linjia was directly excluded by Zhu Youxiao. Instead, he learned from later generations of bulletproof armor.  Using the method of inserting plates on the vest, we designed an iron nail cotton armor with embedded thin steel sheets!

    This kind of iron nail cotton armor, to put it bluntly, is a refined steel sheet that is five inches long, one inch wide, and as thin as paper embedded in the cotton armor. This kind of iron nail cotton armor can not only effectively defend against sharp blades, but is also lightweight.  It only weighs about twenty kilograms and is extremely suitable for cavalry and infantry. However, this kind of iron nail cotton armor does not have enough defense against arrows, so the manufacturing office is still improving it!

    With strong hands, crossbows, sharp swords, and strong armor, the three hundred military policemen took advantage of this confrontation. In just a moment, the horse speed has increased to the extreme. The three hundred military policemen directly penetrated Mongolia.  The cavalry's array is not thick!

    "Let's go!" The Mongolian cavalry who were cut through the array shouted hoarsely with horror on their faces, and then fled in all directions!

    Seeing that the Mongolian cavalry were very scattered, Han Siwen did not order a pursuit. Instead, he led his cavalry back quickly and surrounded the battlefield!

    The battlefield was a mess, with nearly 200 Mongolian cavalry and their horses lying in a mess, but there was not a single Ming cavalry among them!

    "Zhou Laosan, take your little flag to check the results of the battle. If anyone is injured, go to the medical officer for treatment!" Han Siwen yelled while sitting on the horse, his face was splattered with blood, but he was full of smiles!

    Zhou Laosan was the one who failed to kill Wang Gui, that big Han soldier, in the massacre at the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Now he is no longer green at that time, replaced by a tough one!

    After receiving the military order, Zhou Laosan immediately ordered the thirty men under his banner to dismount, but they did not rush into the battlefield to inspect the results!

    Instead, first wind the crossbow and load the crossbow arrows, then form a group of three in a fan shape and slowly approach the battlefield!

    When approaching the edge of the battlefield, suddenly a Mongolian cavalry roared and jumped up. At the same time, he raised the saber high and struck at Zhou Laosan and the others!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
