Chapter 555: The Return of Ma Fang

The most important thing is that the grassland tribes do not use spears. They are used to using scimitars, and they are blocked by barbed wire. Their scimitars cannot show any power at all. However, the Ming Dynasty soldiers are used to using spears. Even if they do not have muskets, they only use spears. Through the barbed wire, they will stab each step to the grassland tribes that are crawling the barbed wire.

Luo Xin firmly believed that simply pulling a barbed wire on the city wall would turn into a nightmare for the grassland tribe.

"General Zhang, you are responsible for the arrangement of city defense!"

"Ode to the Lord!"

"Mr. Jiang, follow me."

Luo Xin took Jiang Song to the Military Equipment Department hurriedly, then drew the drawings of iron rods and wire mesh on the paper, explained it to him again, and asked:

"Mr. Jiang, I want to cover the city walls with such barbed wire before Huang Taiji arrives. Can you complete the task?"

As the old military weapon department, Jiang Song knew the size of the capital city wall and quickly calculated it in his mind:

"Sir, I need four days. From tomorrow, I will make these iron rods and wire mesh in three days, and install them on the city wall in one day. However... this may delay the production of some other weapons."

"Tighten the wire first."

"Yes, sir!"

Luo Xin did not leave the Military Equipment Department, but rested in the Military Equipment Department. When it was dusk, Jiang Song hurried to him and said:

"Sir, more than 2,000 people from the Military Equipment Department have gathered, and the five thousand thunder bullets, gunpowder leads, and slender bamboo tubes are all ready."

"Walk!"

Luo Xin strode out of the gate, and someone had already led a war horse. Luo Xin turned over the horse and led more than 2,000 people from the Military Equipment Division towards the city gate.

When they arrived at the city gate, the two admirals, the Five Military Camp and the Shenji Camp, each led 10,000 soldiers, were already waiting there.

"Open the city gate!"

With Luo Xin's order, the city gate rumbled open, and more than 20,000 people rushed out of the city gate and quickly arrived at the place where the speculated Huangtai Ji'an camp. The two admirals immediately dispersed their troops, banned the place, and sent countless scouts to explore ten miles away.

Luo Xin turned over and dismounted, and the great craftsmen in the General Weapon Division were recruited and taught them how to lay landmines under the torch. Then, these great craftsmen each led a team to start laying landmines.

midnight.

A mine net was laid, and the craftsmen were asked to deal with the ground, and then everyone returned to the city. The main lead of the mine was laid to the moat and buried under the ground.

Early in the morning.

Luo Xin was sleeping in the fifth military camp when he heard the voice of Lu Zhonglian coming from outside:

"Marty, Lord Ma is here."

Luo Xin turned over, wiped his face twice, pushed open the door, and saw Ma Fang standing outside, looking tired and desperate, and his eyes were mixed with shame when he looked at Luo Xin.

"Come some food." Luo Xin said to Lu Zhonglian, and then said to Ma Fang: "Please come in, Lord Ma."

Ma Fang walked in like a puppet, stood there, Luo Xin said, "Sir Ma, please sit down."

Ma Fang shook her head and said, "The criminals dare not sit down." Speaking of this, she looked at Luo Xin desperately and said, "His Majesty has issued an order to throw me into prison?"

"No!" Luo Xin shook his head and said.

"Then... why did I get into the city alone?"

"That was my idea."

Ma Fang was shocked and said, "No, why?"

"Because I don't want Lord Ma to be a sinner, I want Lord Ma Dai Jun to make meritorious service, I want Huang Taiji's neck to be on the head."

Ma Fang's desperate eyes suddenly lit up, her face flushed with excitement. She immediately said without asking Luo Xin what he had planned:

"No, no matter what you say, what I do, I will never refuse."

"Okay!" Luo Xin took Ma Fang's hand and asked him to sit down, "Brother, you and I were able to kill Altan Khan to the point of falling water, and also to kill his son to the point of falling water."

Ma Fang nodded excitedly and looked at Luo Xin with great sincerity. Luo Xin said in a silence: "Brother, do you still remember the land mine?"

"Remember!" Ma Fang's eyes brighter: "Those things buried in Yinlong River?"

"Well! I will give you five thousand and give you the methods you use. Then you will take the soldiers outside the city to wander outside. When Huang Taiji retreats to the grassland, you will adapt to the situation yourself, select places to lay land mines, and intercept Huang Taiji head-on. I will chase you from behind. At that time, our two armies and one place will attack each other, and severely hurt Huang Taiji. As long as we succeed this time, the grassland tribe will no longer be able to invade the Ming Dynasty within twenty years."

Ma Fang looked at Luo Xin seriously and said, "No, are you sure to defend the capital?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded confidently.

"I believe you!" Ma Fang said seriously: "If you can't hold on to the capital, there will be no hope in the Ming Dynasty."

"Don't hesitate, let's act now." Luo Xin stood up and said, "Brother, remember that when Huang Taiji besieged the capital, you can gather the defeated soldiers of Datong outside, or seek opportunities to harass, or annihilate a small group of grassland tribes that go out to find food and grass, but don't confront the main force of the grassland tribe. Your purpose is to give Huang Taiji the final fatal blow. Even if the capital looks very critical, you have to hold back."

"I see!"

Ma Fang nodded seriously, and the two hurriedly left the fifth army camp. First, they went to the Military Weapons Department and taught Ma Fang how to use land mines. Finally, Luo Xin was not relieved. A dozen craftsmen who knew how to use land mines left with Ma Fang, and then sent a team to send some food to Ma Fang's army. In less than an hour, Ma Fang left the capital.

Luo Xin stood on the city wall, watching Ma Fang leave with more than 5,000 troops, thinking about the upcoming war in his heart. He just sticks to the capital and finally lets Huang Taiji leave calmly. This is definitely not the result Luo Xin wants. He wants to defeat the grassland coalition. Only by defeating the grassland coalition can Ma Fang create an opportunity to ambush Huang Taiji.

In my heart, Luo Xin divided the future war into three steps.

The first step is to use land mines to ambush the grassland coalition forces and hit the grassland coalition forces with a head-on blow. This can not only hit the arrogance of the grassland coalition forces, but also enhance the morale of our own side. This decline and rise lays a solid foundation for sticking to the capital.

The second step is also the most difficult part, which is the protracted defensive battle. We must ensure that the city is not lost. Only when the city is not lost can the later plan be realized. With the first step of improving morale, the capital is not short of food and grass, nor is it short of military weapons. Luo Xin came up with a barbed wire mesh, and Luo Xin was confident in defending the capital. Luo Xin had already ordered Jiang Song to make more barbed wire mesh for spare use. Once some barbed wire mesh is destroyed, it can be replaced in time. Ensure that this barbed wire mesh position always exists.
