The next morning, on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, the sun was shining, shining on the white snow, making people see more clearly and farther! And the two armies on alert overnight found that neither side took advantage of the darkness to launch a sneak attack on the other party, and both sides spent a night that was both tense and safe!

"It seems that Gao Changgong still trusts this Zhang Dabao! Knowing that artillery needs to be more powerful when the line of sight is good, so, like us, they are waiting for the sun to come out before attacking? Xiao Yao said with a sneer.

"After all, this Zhang Dabao is a traitor who defected from our side, and it is estimated that on the side of the Qi army, he is the only one who knows how to use those muskets and artillery, otherwise, based on Zhang Dabao's previous performance in the forward brigade, I believe that a person so shrewd by Gao Changgong will not use him so much!" Huang Wenyuan said disdainfully.

"Commander, they're starting to set up their positions!" Li Nong was holding a telescope and was looking intently at the Qi army's position one kilometer apart, and in his heart, he was desperate to fight, to use the blood of the enemy to comfort his heart for those dead brothers!

Xiao Yao also picked up the binoculars, looked at the position of the Qi army in front of Xiao County, and began to set up all kinds of artillery, and then said with a smile: "It seems that I guessed correctly, this Zhang Dabao, who is half a bucket of water, is really completely in accordance with the kind of formation we used to deal with the Qi army before, to arrange the artillery, in order to concentrate firepower, he really concentrated all the artillery together!" ”

"Because I didn't think anyone in this world would invent these powerful muskets and cannons like me, I didn't tell you how to use them in detail! If you are dealing with a cold weapon, of course, you have to concentrate all the artillery and then use heavy artillery to crush the enemy, but if both sides are using artillery, the position of the artillery must be constantly changed! Xiao Yao looked at the three battalion commanders behind him, looking like a well-taught teacher, and smiled slightly.

"If the other side puts the artillery in such a visible position, do you think we can easily deal with them?" Xiao Yao pointed to the position of the Qi army's artillery unit in the distance, looked at Li Nong and said with a smile.

"That's right! Our four bronze guns were bulky and had a lot of to do with their shells, but they had the advantage of having a longer range than those cannons! And we are now using grenades that can explode, and now they are putting the artillery directly under our noses, so our artillery can completely destroy them directly! Li Nong also said excitedly.

"Li Nong, you and your artillery battalion immediately look for the most advantageous position, adjust the angle, and wait for my order, immediately open fire and destroy the artillery position of the Qi army!" Tell Zhang Dabao, a traitor, how the real artillery battalion attacks the enemy! Xiao Yao ordered.

"Yes, Commander! The artillery battalion is guaranteed to absolutely complete the mission! Zhang Dabao, a traitor, will definitely be smashed to pieces, and there will be no place to bury him! Li Nong excitedly saluted Xiao Yao, and then quickly ran to his artillery battalion, preparing to shell the Qi army!

"Commander, no wonder you have been so calm before, it turned out that you had already guessed in advance that Zhang Dabao's traitor would arrange troops like this, although our artillery is less than theirs, but the range and power are much greater than theirs!" Huang Wenyuan also said excitedly, and his mind had already begun to imagine the tragic situation of Zhang Dabao, who would be bombarded violently!

"Commander, what is our mission?" He Fu also asked with a look of grinding his fists and trying to move.

"Now there are only artillery units and infantry in charge of defense on the position of the Qi army, and I believe that Gao Changgong has sent their world-famous cavalry to go around to our vicinity! But let's not stop these cavalry just yet, let them charge straight over! When the time comes, those two machine guns will let them know what a rain of bullets is! Xiao Yao sneered.

Then he gave an order to He Fu and said: "He Fu, later, you will lead your musket battalion to the west side of the Qi army, and when the time comes, their artillery troops will be destroyed by us, and the cavalry will be repulsed by us, they will definitely retreat in a hurry, but our artillery battalion is slow to move and cannot pursue the enemy, so when the time comes, you must cut off their way to the west, prevent them from escaping to Yingchuan County, an important town of the Qi army in the west, and then open full firepower to drive them to the east, and ask them to flee in the direction of Xuzhou and Xiapi!" ”

"Yes, Commander! The musket battalion would never have fled to Yunchuan County as a soldier! He Fu also gave a military salute, then turned around and ran to the musket camp to prepare.

"Commander, what about me?" Huang Wenyuan asked expectantly.

"Your cavalry battalion, of course, after we have routed the enemy, and then rushed up to harvest the heads! We don't need prisoners in this battle! Xiao Yao said coldly with an expressionless face.

"Yes, Commander! I will order all the officers and men of the cavalry battalion to sharpen their sabers, and then I will slash and kill the enemy with all my might, leaving no one alive! Huang Wenyuan licked his lips and also showed a grim reaper smile!

On the Qi army's side, Gao Changgong was desperately widening his eyes, trying to look at the forward brigade position a kilometer away, and then frowned tightly, but said with a little envy: "I think at this time, Xiao Yao on the opposite side must be looking at us with the kind of telescope he made that can see the distant scene, and he has a full view of the troop formation on our side!" I really don't know what this Xiao Yao's head is made of, and he can make so many magical things! ”

"Wait for the meeting, we caught Xiao Yao, cut off his head, and take a closer look! Even if he could see our formation, so what? Zhang Dabao's formations were originally taught by Xiao Yao, even if Xiao Yao didn't look at it, he would guess that Zhang Dabao would put on such a formation! Could it be that Xiao Yao had deliberately taught some wrong formations to Zhang Dabao at that time? But what if he knew? When they attack, we'll let Xiao Yao taste the power of these artillery formations he created himself! Wei Xiangyuan also said with a murderous face, the big war is coming, they must say some cruel words to cheer themselves up!

"But looking at the Chen army on the other side, it seems that he didn't find the figure of Lu Guangda's defeated army, it seems that Xiao Yao is really using the strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain, and after luring us out, let Lu Guangda sneak attack Xuzhou City!" Gao Changgong said a little unwillingly.

"So what do we do now? There are only 3,000 infantry defending Xuzhou City now, but that Lu Guangda has at least more than 10,000 people in his hands, and if he wants to attack the city, it is estimated that our people will not be able to support it for long! Are we going to send a force back for reinforcements? Wei Xiangyuan also said with a worried look.

"No! We must now concentrate our forces against Xiao Yao! Xiao Yao's forward brigade only has 5,000 people, as long as we have an advantage in strength, then even if Xiao Yao has any secret weapon, we still have a chance to defeat Xiao Yao! As long as Xiao Yao is defeated, even if Lu Guangda captures Xuzhou, we can recapture it! If we divide our troops back to reinforce now, not only will it be difficult for our side to deal with Xiao Yao, but the people who rush back may not be able to help the defenders of the city repel Lu Guangda, so we will be in a dilemma! Gao Changgong decisively refused and said, as the commander of the army, he still saw it very clearly.

"Then I hope that the brothers of Xuzhou City can support it for a long time, our side must solve Xiao Yao as soon as possible, and then rush back, like last time, the inside and outside should be combined, and Lu Guangda will be attacked back and forth, and he will be defeated in one fell swoop!" Wei Xiangyuan comforted himself and said.

"I believe that Xiao Yao is also in a hurry to have a decisive battle with us now! Then let's go and meet Lu Quanta! Send an order to Zhang Dabao and let him get ready, as soon as Xiao Yao attacks, he will bombard Xiao Yao for me! Gao Changgong ordered and said fiercely.

For a moment, both sides immediately entered the battle mode, sabre-rattling, ready to go to war!
