Chapter 707
"The distance between 15 degrees on the left side of the target is 3,000 and 4..."
The artillery observers were recording some coordinates on the parody, all of which were catapults.
Although this kind of thing is relatively old, it can also cause considerable casualties to the army. Just waiting for the general to give the order, we will blow their catapult into pieces.
"War is inevitable. We have tried our best. There are so many toasts in the southwest. If there were no one or two good people, I'm afraid other people would not submit."
Jiang Mu said comfortingly that he knew that Wu Chengxun had high expectations for the negotiation, but he did not expect that he would fail in the end.
I originally thought that I would use threats to make the Raba chieftain surrender, but now it seems that there will be a war. If these people do not fail on the battlefield, they may not accept the request of the court.
"You are right, then order your troops to cheer up. Our enemy is not just the Raba Tushita in front of us, but all the Tushitas in the southwest that are fighting against the court, so that they can see clearly what the result of any courage to fight against the court?"
After Wu Chengxun finished speaking, he immediately issued an offensive order. As soon as Laba Tushi returned to the official village, he had already heard the deafening sound of cannons.
Laba Toast was about to issue an order when a shell exploded fifty meters to his left. Although the lethality of the shrapnel could no longer reach here, the shock wave still came.
Laba Tushi's hat was blown to the back. Although I knew how powerful the artillery of the Ming army was, I had never seen it with my own eyes after all. After seeing this scene, Laba Tushi's heart was half-hearted. Maybe I should have agreed to them just now, but now it is already difficult to get off the tiger.
The catapult cart has not been placed in place, and the cannons have not been in place just now, but the time for the cannons to be in place is very short. If you want these catapult carts to enter the combat state, it will take at least half an hour, and the stones have not been transported over yet.
Laba Toast hoped that the catapult would cause certain casualties to the other party, but unfortunately, he could not see this scene. Now what he saw was his subordinates fleeing wildly.
The people who were originally responsible for operating the catapults ran the fastest, but they had already come to a conclusion that the catapults were the target of the Han people.
If you want to die, just get closer to these catapults and take your life in your breath, so no matter how their boss shouts, no one will continue to stay next to the catapults.
"Go away, you can't be here now, go away."
Laba Tusi wanted to say something, but his brother-in-law caught the guy. Usually, his brother-in-law was timid in front of him, but after the war, the brother-in-law saw it very clearly.
If Laba Toast continued to stay here, he would probably be torn to pieces by these shells. Now he should retreat to the mountain quickly. This is the most important thing.
"But……"
Laba Tusi was unwilling to give up. This was the most important mountain pass under his command. If he retreated like this, wouldn’t that mean that the war had just begun? What’s the use of resigning to the mountain with his life?
Duotu could no longer care about so much, so he pulled Raba to his horse and ran up the mountain regardless of the life or death of others.
The two leading people ran away, and the remaining people could not continue to resist. They knew that the road to the mountain was very narrow. If they rushed forward in a swarm, they might not have any good results, so they could only escape in the mountains and forests.
Some people have heard just now that the Ming army will definitely block everyone on the mountain, and they know how much supplies there are on the mountain.
So taking advantage of this chaotic opportunity, many people were not ready to return to the mountain. They were not the direct descendants of Raba Tusi, but were captured by other tribes. Now it was a chance to escape.
Laba Tusi brought a total of 8,000 people down. When he returned to watching the game, more than a thousand people followed him back.
Of course, there are still many people on the road, but there are no more than 3,000 people. They lost five thousand people in a row. The only one-third of their troops are able to conquer warriors. Now more than one-third of their troops have been lost.
The imperial army officially entered Yamaguchi Guanzhai.
Jiang Dagui and others really believed it. This time the court was true and wanted to solve the chieftains.
During the negotiations, many people were still hanging their hearts in their throats. If the negotiations were completed, the imperial army would definitely retreat. How could these chieftains let them go?
Now they have no worries. Haven’t they seen the tragic phenomenon of Raba Toast running away just now?
"Everyone says that Sichuan lacks food, but I don't think it's short of food at all. The grain in this warehouse alone will have to be enough for 30,000 to 40,000 people to eat for a year."
Facing the warehouse of Yamaguchi Temple, Wu Chengxun really didn't know what to say.
It was full of food, all filled with food. No wonder the court's official documents also said that the chieftains had food in their viewing, and this was just a barrier.
"There is another one next to you, which is similar to the food here. The territory of the chieftains does not produce food, so the chieftains of all generations have known the importance of food. They will spend a lot of money to buy every year and will send people down the mountain to rob. It is the best year for us to have enough food, and most of the food is brought here by them."
Jiang Dagui thought of the past days and felt very painful.
"This is all the past. Since the court has brought Sichuan into its own hands, it will definitely not watch you continue to starve. The food of the chieftains is the food you have to overcome the difficulties, but they cannot rely entirely on Zhang Cheng's relief. Many nearby lands are deserted, so the people have to be organized to reclaim them."
Although Wu Chengxun discovered a lot of food, he also knew what to do at this time, so that local production would be restored. This is the most important thing. You must not rely solely on the court.
"General, don't worry. We all understand very well. We are all real farmers. What can we do if we don't farm? But there was no peaceable environment before. If we had a peaceable environment, it would be nothing for me, an old man, to serve ten acres of land."
Jiang Dagui said happily, with his eyes full of longing for the future...
