Half of the eight immortals, four immortals will be trapped in Wuxi.

Tie Guan Li is the head of the Eight Immortal Generals, and he has the highest resourcefulness. It's just that in the face of the situation in front of him, Tie Guan Li can't come up with a good solution.

The city of Suzhou had been occupied by the Guards for a long time, and Changzhou had been seized by the forbidden army, and the scope of the Celestial Army's activities was only one city, Wuxi, which happened to be sandwiched between Suzhou and Changzhou.

Jiangnan is a granary, and Zhang Guo and Zhao Ji both need food here, but none of them can get it.

Wuxi's grain can't be delivered to Runzhou - it can't pass the defenders of the Great Song Dynasty in Changzhou.

Grain from Changzhou could not be delivered to Bianliang - this little grain was only enough for the troops on the front line.

The Heavenly Master Army in Wuxi is not short of food, but what is the use of them being fed, they can't do anything, they just have nothing to do every day.

Han Shizhong kept coming to fight Wuxi, so Tie Guan Li did not dare to divide his troops to capture Suzhou.

Now the Song army also has heavenly thunder and artillery, although the artillery of the Song army is worse than the artillery of the Heavenly Division Army, but there is no qualitative difference - they are all artillery.

There were many Song soldiers, and supplies were endless. Zhao Ji made a bloody investment, and Bianliang's artillery was frantically produced and sent to the Jiangnan front.

This is also thanks to Qin Mu being in charge of the Li State Prison. A lot of steel is needed to make artillery, and Li Guojian is a very important iron and steel mine in the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhao Ji needs Li Guojian to provide him with more steel in order to make more artillery.

He asked Li Guojian to double his production and strive to serve the imperial court.

At this point, Qin Mu did not embarrass Zhao Ji. Now Li Guojian has several excavators. Heavy machinery came into play, and the production of ore skyrocketed.

Although Qin Mu did not carry out technical upgrades in Liguojian, the original workshop of the Great Song Dynasty had so many raw materials, and it could expand its production capacity.

With more steel, there are more artillery, and these cannons are constantly sent to the front line, Han Shizhong has more and more artillery in his hands, and the advantage of the Song army is getting bigger and bigger.

As a result, Wuxi's Heavenly Master Army was even more immobile. The more they defended, the more difficult it became - the enemy had more and more guns, and their own guns were broken by two, and they could not be replenished.

The base camp of the Heavenly Division Army is in Jinling, and the arsenal is also established in Jinling. From Jinling to Wuxi, across Changzhou, the two places cannot communicate with each other.

There are fewer and fewer artillery pieces in Wuxi City, and Tie Gui Li's mood is getting worse and worse.

This mentality affected the Heavenly Master Army in the city, and the military spirit of the Heavenly Master Army began to be unstable.

Although there is food in the city now, they will not worry about starvation for the time being, but they do not see the future.

After staying in Wuxi for so long, the Heavenly Master Army has a new understanding of the Great Song Dynasty from top to bottom.

The court is not a paper paste, and it will fall down as soon as it is blown. On the contrary, the imperial court is the imperial court after all, and it is still very powerful.

Just look at the piles of artillery outside the city, as evidence.

Moreover, the Heavenly Master Army was not only worried about artillery, they had another fear in their hearts.

In Changzhou and Wuxi, the Tianshi army looted a large number of Weishan Lake commodities. A lot of things they're seeing for the first time.

The texture of these things is so exquisite, the design is ingenious, and the convenience of use makes everyone like it from the bottom of their hearts.

Of course, all the goods designed and manufactured by Qin Mu in this time and space are not based on the fifties and sixties of the later generations, but are based on the latest styles of the twenty-first century.

Commodities in the 21st century have changed dramatically from the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Whether it is in terms of material or style, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a work of art.

Such a super generation gap has a huge impact on the people of this time and space. They couldn't figure out how these things were made—they were so ingenious.

The Heavenly Master Army knew about Weishan Lake and the Guards Regiment from these commodities.

They also knew that it was a terrifying force. This force far surpassed the forbidden army outside the city.

The forbidden army can fight with the Heavenly Master Army and I am very happy, but as soon as the Guards Regiment makes a move, every place is a day down, and no one can resist it at all.

I heard that the Guards also use firearms, but their firearms are more powerful.

The Celestial Master Army was already convinced of this—it could be inferred from these exquisite goods alone that the firearms of the Guards Regiment were definitely better.

At this time, Lu Dongbin was convinced that the steel monster he saw in Weishan Lake was a steel-making furnace. What kind of good steel can be made from such a huge steelmaking furnace!

In these days in Wuxi, Lu Dongbin gradually lost his original courage.

In this world, it doesn't seem to be easy to fight.

Zhang Tianshi originally thought that the Great Song Dynasty was vulnerable to internal and external troubles, but now it seems that it is the Tianshi Army that is vulnerable.

For example, although the division army still occupies Jiangnan in name today, and in fact the grain from Jiangnan cannot be sent to Bianliang, but in fact Lu Dongbin knows very well that the Heavenly Division Army has been trapped to death in Jiangnan.

Zhang Guo sat in Jinling and used Jinling as his base camp to fully support the war on the Runzhou front. But Uncle Cao Guo of Runzhou couldn't attack it at all, he just couldn't hold Runzhou without losing it, it was very good.

The Song army was blocked outside the city of Runzhou, constantly harassing it every day, attacking it from time to time.

Fortunately, Runzhou has the full support of Jinling, and it can barely hold on.

The entire Jiangnan battle situation is like a carriage walking on the edge of a cliff, as long as the slightest gust of wind blows, it will immediately fall into the abyss.

What this gust of wind is, they all know. That was Qin Mu and his Guards Regiment.

As soon as the Guards Regiment attacked, Wuxi would immediately collapse - it was impossible for the Wuxi defenders to withstand the simultaneous attack of Han Shizhong and Qin Mu.

Although this ending seemed to be doomed, and the Heavenly Master Army was bound to be defeated, Lu Dongbin had a trace of malicious pleasure in his heart.

Even if the Heavenly Master Army was defeated, the imperial court was not victorious. There is only one person who is the real winner, and that is Qin Mu.

Although Lu Dongbin and others were trapped in the city of sorrow, and their troops were pinned down in Wuxi and did not dare to move, he still sent a large number of spies to investigate the situation in Suzhou.

According to the report of the spies, Lu Dongbin knew that the Guards Regiment had occupied Suzhou, and at the same time, as before, began the urban construction of Suzhou City.

This is what the Guards Regiment has done in Changzhou and Wuxi, and Lu Dongbin is not surprised.

However, he was surprised that the Guards Regiment had swept away the bandits in Taihu Lake.

This made Lu Dongbin so surprised that he almost couldn't close his mouth. The bandits of Taihu Lake occupy the benefits of Taihu Lake and plague the place. They are not only the trouble of the imperial court, but also the trouble of the Heavenly Master Army.

Whoever is in power will think that bandits are troublesome in the same way. This does not distinguish between Zhao Ji and Zhang Guo.

The Heavenly Master Army also tried to fight these bandits, but they couldn't do this at all, those bandits couldn't touch and couldn't fight, and the Heavenly Master Army made several sorties in vain.

This made the Celestial Master Army have to give up the fight against the bandits - not that they can't do it, but they can't do it.

But I didn't expect the Guards Regiment to wipe out the bandits in a short period of time, and not even a single person was left.

Those who should be killed were killed, and the land could be left behind, and I heard that cooperatives and shipyards were also made.

When ordinary people heard the news, they would only scold the Heavenly Master Army for hypocrisy, benevolence and righteousness, but neither Lu Dongbin nor Tie Guan Li would think so.

They got to know this person in the course of their short dealings with Qin Mu.

Qin Mu would not do meaningless things. If he didn't have a backhand, he would never make a shipyard in Taihu Lake.

Isn't he afraid that someone else will smash the shipyard.

He must have been afraid. If a factory was built with hard work, it was smashed by someone three times and five by two, and no one would accept it.

Then since he built it, he doesn't have to worry about being smashed. This only shows one thing, that is, Qin Mu is sure that no force in Jiangnan can pose a threat to the shipyard.

This means that the Heavenly Master Army will be wiped out by Qin Mu in Jiangnan.

Their guess was not wrong at all, Qin Mu planned it this way.

Taihu Lake, as his own sub-base, has already invested a lot of money, how can he let the enemy harass.

Now, according to Qin Mu's order, the Guards Regiment marched north and killed them along the canal.

This Hui Ma shot even more powerfully.

The current Guards Regiment, after the baptism of war, those recruits have grown up rapidly. They and the veterans learned from each other and promoted each other, and the entire Guards Regiment became more combative, and they fought more calmly and bravely.

Moreover, Weishan Lake continuously transported all kinds of war materials, and the weapons and ammunition of the soldiers were fully supplied. In particular, the artillery of the artillery battalion was replenished even more.

In this way, Deng Cheng changed the five-person artillery crew to four. The number of artillery battalions did not increase, but the number of artillery increased.

The Guards Regiment came to Wuxi again, looking at the banner of the Heavenly Division Army on the head of the city, Qin Mu had a whim.

"Captain Qiu, how many shots can you shoot down that flag?"

Qiu Chen bent down and grabbed a handful of soil, then stretched out his palm and let the soil fall naturally—he was measuring the wind speed and direction.

"Report to the head of the regiment, I promise to break the flagpole with one shot." The Special Operations Brigade also has an anti-materiel sniper rifle. This thing hitting the flagpole is a piece of cake.

"Regiment commander," Deng Cheng spoke at this time, "This time to attack Wuxi, let's speak first from our artillery battalion." I promise to blow up the flagpole with one shot. ”

Every operation of the Guards Regiment was recorded in detail afterwards.

This time will be no exception. In the records of military history, it cannot be ambiguous who fired the first shot in this battle. This is an honor, and if it is an honor, it must be fought for.

Qin Mu smiled slightly, still maintaining a calm appearance. In fact, he regretted it a little.

Maybe it was hearing Yue Fei's news that made his mind fluctuate a little.

What he said to Qiu Chen just now was a bit of a joke. After all, war is not a game, and it cannot be so frivolous.

It's just that since he said it, he can't take it back.

At this time, Shi Yi realized Qin Mu's mentality, and he immediately spoke: "Captain Qiu, Camp Commander Deng, fighting is not a family. The regimental commander taught us that in dealing with war, we should despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to the enemy tactically. When we fight, we must strictly follow the plan we made before the war, provided that we do not encounter major accidents. ”

Shi Yi's words made Deng Cheng and Qiu Chen put away their jokes.

Battalion Commander Shi was right. No wonder he has always been the first person in the army, not only because of his old qualifications, but also because of his high level.

The invincibility of the Guards Regiment made Deng Cheng and Qiu Chen a little fluttering, but they couldn't see this only on Shi Yi. He still maintains a cautious and cautious mentality.

"Commander, can you start?" Shi Yi turned to Qin Mu and asked.

"Start attacking." Qin Mu gave an order.

With Qin Mu's order, the battle of the Guards Regiment against Wuxi suddenly began.

Mortars are frantically starting to output. This time, the density of firepower exceeded that of the last time it hit Wuxi. Moreover, after the training of actual combat, the mortar is more accurate than the last time.

The Heavenly Master Army in the city was already prepared, but in the face of such an unprecedented firepower attack, the Heavenly Master Army was unable to defend against it at all.

Mortar shells are not solid iron balls.

Later shells relied on shock waves and fragments to kill people. The caliber of the 82 mortar is large, the shells are also large, and the lethality is amazing. Especially in this situation where there is no fear of counterattacking from the opposite side at all, the artillery can output with all their strength without distraction.

The walls were so narrow that they were full of enemies. A single salvo from a mortar can clear a section of the wall.

In the era when soldiers could not dig anti-artillery holes, in the face of firepower strikes from the 21st century, the Heavenly Division Army was completely unable to parry.

They are just like the livestock in Jia Hongxian's slaughterhouse, they can only stretch their necks and wait for death.

There are no bunkers on the city walls at all, and you can't hide them if you want to. And mortars and artillery are different. Artillery can't do almost vertical dropping, while mortars can.

Mortar shells simply rained down from the sky.

On the city wall of Wuxi, it seems to be full of flowers in an instant. The light of fire and the smoke of gunpowder enveloped everything, and in the fireworks, the severed arms and stumps were splashed.

Such a war made Qin Mu not want to watch it anymore.

One-sided killings have never been easy for him to accept.

It's tantamount to playing a game - you'll be scolded to death.

However, except for Qin Mu, every soldier of the Guards Regiment did not have such unprovoked feelings. In a war, it is natural that the more the enemy dies, the faster the better, and he does not even break the skin, this is the most clever war.

That's the kind of war they're fighting now. This filled every fighter of the Guards Regiment with pride.

Even Chong Yanchong was full of blood burning. He had completely abandoned his armor, and at the same time he gave his gentian bright silver spear to Qin Mu as a gift.

The son of the seed family has repeatedly stated that although this gun is not easy to use to kill, it has important historical value - this is the treasure gun used by Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong of the Three Kingdoms.

Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong are the victorious generals of the Three Kingdoms.

Chong Yanchong sent a gun to Qin Mu in the hope that Qin Mu would win all battles. This gun is a mascot. At the same time, this also implies this family's attitude towards Qin Mu - willing to serve you as the master.

The children of the family are indeed the children of the family. Chong Yanchong's words are high-sounding and unrefusable. At the same time, he has not lost the face of his family.

Faced with this rhetoric, Qin Mu could only accept the gun.

Although this gun is of little use to himself, it is a good gift to take it back to the future and give it to gold.

Zhao Yun's treasure spear of the Three Kingdoms, if he held the gold in his hand and gestured at Dong Yuqiong, the scene would be unimaginably beautiful.
