Lin Ziran looked at the Guang'an troops outside the city, this was the first time he had directly faced the main force of the Guang'an people.

Even strictly speaking, this was the first time he had faced the main forces of another feudal town.

There are nearly 20,000 troops in Haohao Tangtang, and the tents set up by it are all large areas, including more than 3,000 cavalry troops, and dozens of artillery pieces in the artillery units, many of which are heavy large-caliber artillery.

Not to mention the troops, even the baggage troops they carried with the army had four-wheeled heavy carriages, which were hundreds of them.

Moreover, a steady stream of baggage troops and transport troops composed of young and strong men arrived one after another.

There are so many supplies, and it is estimated that many of them are shells.

Otherwise, there would be no need for so many wagons for other ordinary supplies.

"This Guang'an people are fierce" Luo Mazi's face was full of worry: "My lord, if the gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall, or ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Ziran just glared at him.

What Lin Ziran wants to say in the future, Lin Ziran is very clear, it is nothing more than those words that escaped.

Lin Ziran didn't say anything threatening, but explained it rarely: "Think about it with your own pig brain, if we don't keep Nanguang City, will this Qingshan Town be gone, and the oil company will be gone, hundreds of thousands a month, without this money, we will still play a fart!" ”

Hearing Lin Ziran's words, Luo Mazi still didn't give up: "My lord, where can we go in this world, as long as we have guns, we can go to other places to grab a territory!" ”

These words gave Lin Ziran an inspiration.

This can be used as a retreat!

If Nanguang City can't be held in the end, and Tsingshan Petroleum Company can't be saved, he can also run away with his army at that time.

As long as you have soldiers and guns, you can go to other places to grab a territory!

However, this can only be used as a worst-case scenario, and he will not choose to run away unless he has to.

It is not easy for him to lay such a foundation in Qingshan Town, how can it be so easy to establish such a foundation in other places, especially Qingshan Petroleum Company, which is completely a cash cow, but he will keep it whenever he has the opportunity.

However, despite such an intention, the retreat that should be prepared is still a retreat.

Immediately, he looked left and right, and saw that there was no one else around, so he immediately lowered his voice and said to Luo Mazi: "You go and prepare the route of the retreat, and prepare as much cash as possible." ”

Hearing this, Luo Mazi's eyes lit up!

How long has it been!

How many times!

From a big boss to an adult, Lin Ziran finally listened to his own strategy!

At this moment, Luo Mazi's emotions were out of control, and his voice became hoarse: "My lord...... The small ones must be prepared. ”

Lin Ziran looked at Luo Mazi, and didn't understand his reaction, didn't Lao Tzu listen to your advice and prepare to retreat, you still look like Lao Tzu bullied you, who are you crying to.

Although he was puzzled, he still said: "The preparation must be secret, and the arrangement of the retreat route and the preparation of cash must not be known to too many people, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Luo Mazi: "Xiaodi obeys!" ”

Luo Mazi quickly turned around and left, and his steps were much lighter when he walked.

He has been a bandit with Lin Ziran for many years, from hiding in Tibet before to now entrenched in Qingshan Town, he has always regarded himself as Lin Ziran's master, but Lin Ziran rarely listens to his advice, even if it is the original body, let alone the current Lin Ziran who came from the earth.

Now, Lin Ziran followed his advice and began to prepare for a retreat, and also entrusted him with this important task.

He has to do a good job so that he can live up to the importance that adults hold on him.

The most important thing is that if he prepares a retreat in the rear, he does not have to go to the front.

Once the two sides fought on the Nanguang defensive line, it would be dozens or even hundreds of artillery pieces bombarded each other, and quite a lot of them were heavy artillery.

Under this kind of heavy artillery, even if it is just a smoothbore artillery or a black powder shell, it is very powerful.

There is little possibility of resistance on an individual level of a battle of this magnitude.

Whether it is dead or alive depends purely on whether God gives face!

God may give face to adults, but he may not necessarily give him Luo Mazi face.

It's better to go to the rear early to arrange a retreat safely.

This war or something, it's not very suitable for him Lao Luo.

Luo Mazi walked briskly and whistled to arrange a retreat, but naturally there were few people who knew what he was going to do, and the others were not suspicious.

At this time, Wu Guanlin walked to Lin Ziran's side: "My lord, look at this posture, at least half of the main force of the Second Army of Guang'an has come!" ”

Lin Ziran nodded slightly: "It is rumored that Li Kun is one of the three families of Guang'an, and the second army under his command is the main force responsible for the southern defense line, with more than 30,000 troops at its peak, even if it suffered a lot of losses in the Chongguangcheng Battle before, but the news from the third division shows that this second army has at least more than 20,000." ”

Wu Guanlin said: "Yes, the total strength of the Second Army of Guang'an is estimated to be about 25,000 people today, and now there are almost 20,000 troops outside our Nanguang City. ”

Lin Ziran said: "It doesn't matter how many infantry and cavalry there are, what matters is the other party's artillery unit, I think they have a lot of artillery, at least more than sixty!" ”

Lin Ziran just beckoned, and said to Kong De, the commander of the Sixth Heavy Artillery Regiment who was observing the enemy with a telescope nearby: "Brother Kong! ”

When Kong De heard this, he walked a few steps quickly: "My lord! ”

Lin Ziran said: "This time the enemy has a lot of artillery, is there pressure on us?" ”

Comte: "There is definitely pressure, but rest assured, we are still confident that we can suppress their artillery, although there are a lot of their artillery, but most of them are still field artillery, and there are not many heavy artillery, this is where our advantage lies." ”

As he spoke, Kong Deyi pointed to the vague Guang'an camp a few kilometers away and said: "Your Excellency, you see, their artillery unit has two parts, and the relatively large one in front should be their Second Artillery Brigade if it has not been renumbered, with a total of almost forty field guns. ”

"But these cannons are all five- or nine-pound field guns!"

"The range of artillery of this caliber is effective, the power of long-range artillery is insufficient, and our heavy artillery units are enough to effectively suppress them, and it is impossible to pose much threat to us."

"When our third division first began to attack Chongguangcheng, not only the divisional artillery regiment, but also two independent eighteen-pound howitzer battalions with additional reinforcements, and more than 80 light and heavy field guns attacked Chongguangcheng, but they still failed to achieve too good artillery results, and even destroyed many of our artillery positions by their fortress heavy artillery, resulting in heavy casualties among the artillery units."

"The situation will not be improved until the arrival of the artillery regiment of the 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment!"

"So our real opponents are not those small and medium-caliber artillery, but their more than a dozen heavy guns!"

At this time, Kong Deyi pointed to the Guang'an artillery unit on the other side and said: "What can really pose a threat to us is their sixteen heavy artillery!" ”
