Chapter 360: Enemy on the Belly and Back

In a forest not far behind the Chen army, Zhang Dabao was directing this cottage artillery unit to continuously fire fiercely at the Chen army who was preparing to attack the city! And seeing that Chen Jun was beaten by this sudden artillery attack, throwing his armor and throwing off his armor, Zhang Dabao's heart suddenly swelled with a burst of joy and the joy of successful revenge!

Because during this period of time, Zhang Dabao has been very depressed and guilty, and he is very unhappy!

First of all, he came to the country of Qi with the identity of a traitor who defected to the enemy behind his back! In the Battle of Linying County, if he hadn't blown up Xiao Yao's ammunition, Gao Changgong would not have been able to defeat Xiao Yao's forward brigade at all, but even if he made such a great contribution to Gao Changgong, his traitorous status of betraying Xiao Yao still made Gao Changgong and other generals of Qi look down on him very much!

Even Zhang Dabao himself looks down on himself a little, after all, he is also the second generation of generals from a family of generals, and his father is Zhang Zhaoda, the general of Chen Guo's chariot and cavalry, as a result, the Zhang family is full of loyalty and loyalty, and now he is a rebellious son who has betrayed the country and defected to the enemy!

Later, he heard that his father was angry to death because of his defection, although Chen Xu saw that Zhang Zhaoda had made countless military exploits for Chen Guoguo during his lifetime, and did not hold him accountable as a dead man, nor did he deprive him of his honorary title, but the rest of the Zhang family was all implicated in this, some were snubbed, and even suspected, Zhang Dabao's brothers were deprived of their public positions by the imperial court, and all of them were demoted to commoners!

And Zhang Dabao, who is a filial son, couldn't send his father to the end after his father died, and he couldn't even see his father's last face, which made Zhang Dabao feel very guilty and blamed himself!

Therefore, disloyalty to the country, unfilial piety to his father, and injustice to his comrades-in-arms made Zhang Dabao's reputation infamous, and he was already regarded by the people in Chen Guo as a scum that everyone could condemn! And on the side of the Qi State, naturally no one wants to be in the company of such disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial people!

And although when Zhang Dabao was in the infantry battalion, he was the worst student when Xiao Yao was training his soldiers on firearms knowledge and various modern warfare concepts, but for the current Qi army, he is the only one who knows how to train and command soldiers to use firearms! So if it weren't for Gao Changgong's need for Zhang Dabao to assist him now, and he also trained a unit in the Qi army that could skillfully use muskets and artillery, it is estimated that even Gao Changgong would not bother to pay attention to him!

So after Zhang Dabao came to Qi State, he has been living a very lonely and lonely, very depressed and painful life, but he is a little greedy for life and afraid of death, but he does not dare to end his life, so even if his current life is not satisfactory, he has been compromised, endured humiliation and stealing life!

Finally, Chen launched the second phase of the Northern Expedition and sent troops to attack Huaibei, and Gao Changgong was also reappointed as the commander of the Qi army, leading troops to reinforce Huaibei and resist the Chen army!

This also brought Zhang Dabao an opportunity, an opportunity for him to exhale and raise his eyebrows and vent his dissatisfaction!

Because after more than half a year of training, even if Zhang Dabao is only half a bucket of water in terms of firearms knowledge, he is also a person who has been trained by Xiao Yao like hell, so he used all the training items of the infantry battalion on the Qi army, and he was even trained by him to train a decent artillery unit, and now he is entrusted with a heavy task by Gao Changgong, so that he can take this artillery unit to launch a sneak attack behind Chen Jun!

Sure enough, Zhang Dabao also lived up to expectations, confidently commanding the artillery unit to attack the Chen army in an orderly manner, and seeing the Chen army on the opposite side was panicked by this sudden and fierce artillery bombardment, which made Zhang Dabao feel like a spring breeze, and the whole person became very excited and excited, looking up to the sky and laughing, although the soldiers he killed now were the same as him, they were all Chen Guoren!

Lu Guangda saw that his troops were attacked behind him, and the other party was still using a powerful weapon like artillery, which made him a little frightened, but after all, he was also a veteran who had been on the battlefield for a long time and had experienced a hundred battles, after calming down, he saw that this artillery unit was the same as Xiao Yao's infantry battalion, although it used firearms, but the number of artillery and the number of troops were not much, and there were only dozens of various artillery, and the strength was only a few thousand! 117

So, he decided to fight back immediately!

Lu Guangda immediately ordered the whole army to turn back, give up the siege, and then let the 30,000 army turn the siege of Xuzhou City into an encirclement of this artillery unit hidden in the woods, and then use the tactics of crowds to wipe out this cottage artillery force in one fell swoop!

Sure enough, Zhang Dabao saw that the Chen army of more than 30,000 people suddenly surrounded him, and he was also frightened, and hurriedly shouted for the artillery to continue firing, and also asked the musket troops in charge of defense to shoot indiscriminately at these Chen troops who rushed towards him from all sides!

If this artillery unit used those high-quality black powder made by Xiao Yao, if there was enough ammunition, then even if it was surrounded by an army of 100,000, there was no need to worry, and it would completely defeat them when they rushed in front of him!

But now Zhang Dabao's cottage artillery unit uses inferior black powder made by Gao Changgong, although the ammunition is sufficient, but the power of the musket artillery is greatly reduced, when the soldiers of the Chen army rushed into the range of the musket, in fact, they also entered the range of the Chen army's archers!

So the two sides immediately entered a melee! There were constantly generals of the Chen army who were knocked to the ground by the artillery muskets of the Qi army, but the crowd tactics also worked, the encirclement continued to shrink, and the soldiers of the Qi army began to be shot by the bows and arrows of the Chen army!

Lu Guangda is worthy of being a veteran of the battlefield, who can quickly adjust tactics and objectives on the battlefield, and can keep the formation of 30,000 troops in the event of a sudden sneak attack, and can continue to carry out the commander's orders, which shows that Lu Guangda's army has a very high combat quality! And if the battle situation continues like this, Zhang Dabao's cottage artillery unit will be like Xiao Yao's forward brigade, and it will be defeated under Lu Guangda's crowd tactics today!

But Lu Guangda forgot that there is still a high Changgong in Xuzhou City!

As Gao Changgong, who was also battle-hardened and experienced in a hundred battles, of course he had expected Lu Guangda to react from this, so when he saw that Chen Jun gave up the siege of the city, and then besieged Zhang Dabao in the woods, Gao Changgong also immediately ordered that the Qi army in ambush in the city also rushed out and rushed towards Chen Jun, who had already turned around!

At this moment, for Lu Guangda, he really fell into the danger of being attacked by a wolf in front and a tiger in the back!

Although the artillery unit in front is small, and the range of musket artillery is not far, but their lethality is still very terrifying, so watching their companions continue to fall, this has made the soldiers of the Chen army a little timid, although the belief that the soldiers only obey the general's orders and never retreat supports themselves to continue to charge, but the pace has slowed down unconsciously, and everyone does not want to continue to move forward to die, after all, no matter how brave the soldiers, they are also afraid of death!

And at this time, I saw that Xuzhou City behind me also rushed out of a murderous army, which made Lu Guangda's 30,000-strong Chen army collapse instantly, and the soldiers no longer cared about any military orders, and those who retreated died, everyone dropped their weapons and fled for their lives in all directions!

As a result, the 30,000 Chen army was defeated!
