Chapter 586: Attacking the Enemy with Light

"Commander, don't send troops! This is obviously a trick by the imperial court to lure the enemy, and the commander must not rush to send troops! ”

Seeing that Li Si'an couldn't bear it a little and planned to send troops, the subordinates next to him hurriedly persuaded him, and now the army in the imperial court is constantly gathering to Wei Bo, and Xuanwu only has 40,000 troops, plus the men and horses in Lanzhou, it is only 50,000.

And the imperial army, the numbers that have been known include the Left Yulin Army, the Left Shenwu Army, the Right Shence Army, and the 30,000 horizontal navy.

In addition, there are 20,000 Xia Sui and Tiande allied troops and 10,000 Hedong soldiers, which is more than 100,000 troops, and only 50,000 troops in Shanzhou must be sent cautiously.

"What does it mean to rush into the army? Those bastards in the court have already bullied us, if we haven't reacted yet, how can we fight this battle? What about morale?

Moreover, the imperial army has not yet been assembled, so it is necessary to destroy a group of imperial court troops first, and then it will be easy to fight!

Come, tell me to go down, mobilize 30,000 cavalry, I will destroy this enemy army! Really, Li Si'an is a vegetarian, right?

I'm not one of those bald asses! ”

"Commander..."

The people under him still wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't persuade Li Si'an at all, so he could only watch the other party leave the camp with the army.

At the beginning, Li Si'an chased after the forbidden cavalry, but found that there were ambushes. Seeing the ambush soldiers, Li Si'an was taken aback, but as soon as he fought, he found that the combat power of these ambushes was simply worrying, and under the attack of his army, he was defeated and retreated.

Li Si'an couldn't help but laugh at his subordinates, such an ambush, and wanted to eat his 30,000 foot cavalry? Don't be afraid to break your teeth!

The subordinates next to him did not relax their faces, because he always felt weird, because there were not many casualties among the imperial army. He suspected that it was a trick of the imperial court, but Li Si'an didn't listen to it at all, thinking that his subordinates were too careful.

So he led the army to continue the pursuit, but after more than ten miles, the whole land was trembling, two elite cavalry appeared on the left and right flanks of Li Si'an's army, and the rout soldiers in front also stopped fleeing, turned around, and began to line up on the spot.

Seeing the two cavalry teams with an obvious number of more than 10,000, as well as the frontal 'rout', Li Si'an knew that he had indeed been tricked.

However, the number of enemy troops was not large, so Li Si'an did not flee, but chose to take the initiative to attack, and escaping at this time was undoubtedly self-defeating.

"Brothers, kill me and destroy these miscellaneous pieces of the court!"

"Kill!"

Li Si'an raised his weapon and shouted at the army behind him.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Xuanwu army is worthy of being a battle-hardened army, and even in the face of this unfavorable situation, its morale is stronger than that of other feudal towns.

The Xuanwu Army, whose morale was originally a little unstable, immediately broke out with high morale under Li Si'an's example.

That's what a fierce general does!

The shouts of killing shook the sky, and then the cavalry began to slowly drive the horses to trot, and the rear followed, forming a dense offensive formation. The rumbling of horses' hooves grew dull, and as the cavalry began to accelerate, the vibration made people's hearts beat with it.

Behind the cavalry, the Xuanwu infantry army, which was also lined up in an attacking phalanx, also quickly followed.

However, compared with the forbidden army, this formation is still a lot more chaotic, but it is arranged according to the formation of pikemen in front, sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen in the back, but it is a little chaotic.

Although chaotic, this is how the Xuanwu army defeated one enemy after another. Although the forbidden army in front of him is difficult, for Xuanwu, sooner or later it will have to be faced.

"Dutong, the enemy is attacking, should we retreat?" Seeing that the Xuanwu Army was taking the initiative to attack, Gu Yanlang was a little worried, and immediately suggested to Liu Kui.

"Retreat? Pontus is the commander, you are the general of the first army, retreat at this time, morale will be affected, how can you retreat?

Finally lured out Li Si'an, a fierce tiger, and if he didn't take the opportunity to destroy him, how could Pontus attack the hinterland of Xuanwu?

Pass the order, prepare the magic machine gun, and teach the Xuanwu army a lesson, let them know what a new type of war is. Liu Kui ordered.

With the advent of artillery and muskets, some of the more forward-looking generals knew that the previous methods of warfare had also undergone great changes.

For this, the Shenji Battalion, the Left and Right Tiance Army, and the Right Shence Army are the most clear, because these troops are equipped with Shence General Cannon and Tiance Cannon, and the Shenji Battalion is even equipped with muskets. Of course, the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate was also equipped with some magic cannons, which were mainly used as the defense of important cities.

However, the number of artillery of the Right Shence Army is not large, only 12 Shenji guns, although the number is not as good as the Tiance cannon, but the Shenji cannon has an advantage over the Tiance cannon in terms of rate of fire and convenience.

As for the full equipping of muskets with the forbidden army, it is not realistic, at least for decades.

Because the problem of muskets is not small, it is greatly affected by the natural climate, and even if there are both artillery and muskets, it cannot promote the change from cold weapon combat to hot weapon combat.

This is subject to the current level of industry, and for a period of time, muskets and artillery are only used as support weapons, which can be used as killer weapons.

Originally, there was a great demand for copper for artillery, and in the area controlled by the imperial court, the copper production of Hezhong Province was larger, but it also had to meet the production of copper coins, so the output of artillery was limited. Recommended reading tv//

However, after the discovery of a large number of copper mines in the territory of the Anxi Imperial Protectorate, the copper production of the imperial court increased a lot.

For that copper producing area, the imperial court had a special garrison and set up a special management body, which shows its importance.

In the future, I think that for a period of time, the battles of the imperial court will revolve around the production areas of copper, silver, and iron, the first two of which must be used by the imperial court to issue currency; The latter is an important raw material for the manufacture of weapons.

After the Xuanwu army entered the firing range, the general in charge of commanding the divine machine cannon immediately raised a small red flag.

"Ignition!"

Although the Xuanwu army knew that there was a kind of big killing weapon in the imperial court, it only knew about a small number of people, most of whom were high-level, and the soldiers below did not know.

The Xuanwu cavalry, who rushed to the front, watched twelve black iron bullets (actually lead bullets) roaring towards them!

Since the cavalry at the front had to face the counterattack of the enemy's bows, arrows, spears and other weapons, the cavalry at the front were all qualified to wear armor, and it was also the kind of armor with good protection.

Although Xuanwu's cavalry is a little weak, most of them can still meet the armor of the cavalry. However, the so-called armor of the Xuanwu cavalry, even if it is at the front, its armor protection is not necessarily as good as that of the forbidden army.

Seeing the oncoming iron guy, the soldiers at the front subconsciously bent down, trying to avoid this iron guy who was definitely not a good thing.

But with such a dense formation, there are only 12 magic cannons in total, and it is difficult to shoot crookedly, and finally 12 lead bullets still smashed into the formation of the Xuanwu cavalry, and for a while, the screams of people and the neighing of war horses came and went!
