Chapter 098: The Power of the Torrent of Steel
As a qualified handsome talent, Liu Xingzuo knows very well in his heart how to defeat the enemy army that is attacking or about to attack at the lowest cost.
At his age, at his stage.
Liu Xingzuo has long passed the period of fierce competition.
Carrying the lives of nearly 20,000 elite soldiers, and behind this is the expectation of nearly 20,000 families, which involves more than 100,000 military families!
When responsibility is really in mind, the meaning it represents is really different.
On the one hand, Liu Xingzuo knocked Zu Dale, and on the other hand, he still chose to let Zu Dale's department be the vanguard of this expedition against Wang's self-use department.
As a member of Ning Yuan's ancestral family, aside from others, the backbone of the military generals led by Zu Dashou is definitely a bargain!
Previously, due to the limited number of expanded legions, and Zu Dashou held an important position in the four departments, Zu Dabi took over as the commander of the 2nd Army Corps, and in order to balance the internal, Zhao Zongwu did not promote other ancestral generals.
This time, because he wanted to achieve the grand goal of mastering the nine sides, Zhao Zongwu would inevitably use this expedition to expand the deployment of the legions under his command.
When Zu Dabi led the soldiers of the 2nd Army Corps to engage in a vigorous duel in Yaozhou, Zu Dale led the headquarters plus more than 3,000 officers and soldiers of the local garrison, carrying all kinds of firearms gathered by the three divisions, and attacked Pizhou in a mighty way!
I'm afraid that for the Liukou, no one expected that Zhao Zongwu's department, which was stationary, would actually enter the territory of the department with its front foot, and they would lead a mighty army on the back foot.
For these unruly rogues, they gathered together because they had no way to live and couldn't eat enough.
So don't try how disciplined they can be.
Why did the king take advantage of such an opportunity for them so much?
Because only when they come out can they develop and strengthen their own foundation, and the number of soldiers in the old battalion is the foundation of strengthening their power.
During this period of time in Pizhou, through selection, the old camp under Wang Ziyong's command has also expanded to more than 1,000 people, all of whom are first-class masters.
Some of them may not have blood on their hands, but their physique is first-class and strong!
With these fundamentals, Wang Ziyong only needs to gradually let them adapt to the cruel battlefield and survive on this battlefield in the follow-up battles, then after two or three battles, they can turn into real warriors.
It's a pity that such an opportunity is gone.
"Damn! Another group of shrunken turtles cowering in the city! Zu Dale looked at the city in front of him with a hateful expression, and said with a scolding grin: "For Lao Tzu, pull over from the army this time, and set up the sixteen directly subordinate general's cannons!" Lao Tzu wants to see if your city is hard, or the projectiles of my general's cannon are hard!! ”
Because he had money in his hands, Zhao Zongwu was equipped with the world's top artillery and firearms for the Huaxia Army, and this improved version of the general cannon was the most powerful of them.
The general cannon was improved on, and the original Shenwei invincible general cannon installed under the command of the Ming army.
Just because Zhao Zongwu has always paid attention to seeking truth from facts in the army, so after improving this type of artillery, he removed the invincible Shenwei and called it the general's cannon.
The general cannon developed and produced, cast with steel-making alloy, is four and a half feet long, weighs more than 700 catties, and is engraved with rifling, with a star in front and a door in the back.
The general's cannon is filled with a semi-breech type, and the gunpowder and twist used are all specially made.
Semi-breech filling greatly avoids the phenomenon of the gun being blown up after shelling due to the unclean wiping of the inner chamber and the insufficient combustion of explosives.
This also makes the general's cannon greatly improved in the original power, and the firing range has reached two and a half miles, coupled with the improvement of the mobile vehicle carrying the general's cannon, and the installation of pure hand-made spring shock absorption, which also greatly improves the transfer ability of the general's cannon!
Zhao Zongwu smashed out the weapons and equipment with real money, which is by no means regarded as decoration, through more than seven years of conquest in Liaodong, the Chinese army has already been ideologically implemented, soldiers are more important than weapons and equipment, weapons and equipment are used to consume on the battlefield!
"Pull the garrisons of the places that follow behind, and bring them to the front! If you want to become a real soldier, you must first endure the shelling! Zu Dale frowned slightly and said: "The soldiers and horses of the headquarters are gathered on the side, once there is a change in the Liukou entrenched in the city of Suizhou, the department will immediately go to the battlefield!" ”
Dealing with the rogue soldiers and horses whose strength is far inferior to theirs, although Zu Dale attaches great importance to Wang Ziyong and other leaders in his heart, he is still very confident in those low-level soldiers.
If the soldiers under his command can't even defeat these peasants, then he can find a piece of tofu and kill him.
With the issuance of Zu Dale's military orders, his troops have entered a combat state, and at the same time, the officers and soldiers under his command are operating according to the orders of generals at all levels.
The shieldmen of each team gathered and held out, and the pikemen, hook and sickles, crossbowmen, and musketeers all operated according to their own orders.
Its core protection is a group of more than ten people of the general artillery team, these sixteen black hole of the general cannon, giving people a very terrible feeling.
The cost of this big general's cannon is a lot of silver!
Looking at the sixteen great general's cannons in front of him, Zu Dale's eyes flashed with anger, and he looked at the city of Pizhou not far away, revealing deep disdain.
'Isn't your king strong for his own use?' Then Lao Tzu will let you taste the power of this steel torrent first, even if you are breaking in the cow, but after all, you are a mortal fetus! ’
Following Zu Dale's gaze, at the height of Pizhou City, Wang Ziyong was observing the Ming army in battle under the city, relying on his eyesight to observe, he also had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Although Wang Ziyong has never seen what the cannon looks like, but the muzzles of the black hole hole in that door are lined up, even if it is small, Wang Ziyong can feel the threat of them!
At such a distance, you can still see the muzzle of this black hole, if it is close, how big will this cannon be!!
If such artillery is bombarded on people, how can a mortal body resist it?
If such a power is applied to them, it will definitely not be able to resist it!
Just when Wang Ziyong was thinking about this, the tentative attack from Zu Dale began!
For those rogues who had never seen such a battle, such an experience was not a good thing, and the power that burst out of the earth shook the mountains was enough to deter them from having the desire to resist!
