…

Qiu Yue was very, very, very envious of Hu Yanzhuo, and even a little jealous of Hu Yanzhuo!

Because he was born in the Jiangmen Huyan family, he is the descendant of the famous iron whip king Huyan Zanyan faction of the founding general of the Song Dynasty, only in his thirties, the same age as his Qiu Yue, Hu Yanzhuo has already achieved the control of Runing County, and after making great contributions to Gao Taiwei this time, his future is even more limitless!

And he, Qiu Yue, has been practicing martial arts diligently since he was a child, and he doesn't dare to slack off for a while!

But because of his background, no matter how hard he tries, he can only be an ordinary head of the forbidden army!

Later, he was finally stammered by Gao Yu and Captain Gao, and became the head of the 800,000 forbidden army!

However!

The head of the 800,000 forbidden army looks quite big, as if he is the boss of the 800,000 forbidden army, but in fact he is a small official the size of a sesame mung bean, not to mention the control of the capital, but compared with the head of the Tokyo Dongcheng Terracotta Division and the Gyeonggi Metropolitan Supervisor.

However, Qiu Yue was not discouraged, as long as he was appreciated by Gao Taiwei, wouldn't it be a matter of one sentence to be promoted?

But just when he was trying his best to please Gao Taiwei, something happened - under his protection, Gao Yanei, the son of Gao Taiwei's favorite moth, was gelding, and he was tossed half dead!

During that time, not to mention how annoyed he was, he felt that his career was over, and he even felt that he would follow in the footsteps of his two former subordinates, Wang Jin and Lin Chong.

OK!

Gao Taiwei was magnanimous and gave him another chance with the other three difficult brothers!

He's going to take advantage of this opportunity!

At the same time, he also wants to take revenge - if it weren't for this group of blindless thieves who abolished Gao Yanei, he wouldn't have fallen into such a field!

When he won the first two passes, he really worked hard, and even used the strength to eat, and when he won the second pass, he was the first to rush to the pass!

Now that there is only one pass left, he can win the first merit, and then eliminate the previous influence, regain the weight of Gao Taiwei, and then find some opportunities to make more military exploits, he can fly Huang Tengda and shine on the lintel to seal his wife and son!

Just think about it, his blood is boiling!

At present, the only problem is that there are old friends Zhou Ang and that Hu Chun and Hu Dujian to share this first merit with him, this is not good, it is not good, although Gao Taiwei is broad-minded, how can he hold so many people in his heart?

Therefore, he has to work harder and strive to make a big achievement on his own, such as capturing Li Yan or something, overshadowing his old buddies Zhou Ang and Hu Chun.

With this Xianghan, Qiu Yue accelerated again!

Looking at the old buddies Zhou Ang and Hu Chun from the corner of his eye, Qiu Yue found that Zhou Ang and Hu Chun's speed was not slower than him at all, and Hu Chun was faintly ahead of him!

Qiu Yue scolded secretly: "These two villains actually have the same idea as Lao Tzu!" ”

At this moment, dozens of thick iron buckets were launched from the pass.

Qiu Yue said in his heart: "This is ...... Could it be artillery? ”

Thinking that this thing was artillery, Qiu Yue was not only not afraid at all, but also laughed at Li Yan: "A village thief is a village thief, and he actually wants to use artillery to defend the city!" ”

No wonder Qiu Yue laughed at Li Yan.

In "The Complete Biography of the Water Margin", Hu Yanzhuo was ordered to exterminate Shuibo Liangshan and defeated Song Jiang with a chain of horses, and the Liangshan people had to retreat to Wanzi City, which was surrounded by 800 miles of Shuibo.

Hu Yanzhuo had no way to enter, and thought of a person - Ling Zhen, the first gunner of the Great Song Dynasty.

Taking advantage of the angel's coming to reward, Hu Yanzhuo proposed to ask Ling Zhen to come.

Under Gao Yu's order, Ling Zhen came, saw the main general Hu Yanzhuo, and met the pioneer Han Tao, and asked about the distance of Wanzi City, so he went to the water's edge to erect a cannon mount and prepared to bombard Wanzi City.

Originally, Song Jiang and the others were defeated by Hu Yanzhuo, and there was nothing they could do about Hu Yanzhuo's chain of horses, which was very nerve-wracking, plus such a thunderbolt, is there still a way to fight this battle?

But after Wu Yong heard about this, he was not worried, and said, "It's okay to do this." My cottage is surrounded by water, there are many harbors, Wanzi City is far away from the water, even if there are flying artillery, how can you hit the edge of the city? ”

So, they gave up the small village in Yazui Beach to see how Ling Zhen fired the cannon.

Ling Zhen fired three artillery pieces in a row, although Song Jiang was "depressed" and all the leaders were "all discolored", Wu Yong did not panic, and said: "As long as you lure Ling Zhen to the water's edge and capture him, you will have a way to break the enemy." ”

After Wu Yong said this, things became very simple, the navy led Ling Zhen to the water's edge, and Ruan Xiaoer easily arrested Ling Zhen.

Why did Ling Zhen, the first gunner of the Great Song Dynasty, let Liang Shanbo fight before he made an inch?

Why didn't the three types of artillery he carry, the wind cannon, the golden wheel cannon, and the sub-mother cannon, all of them come in handy?

Ling Zhen's artillery "can go to the distance of fourteen or fifteen miles, where the stone cannon falls, the sky collapses, and the mountains fall and the stones crack", why did he not see such power in the process of fighting with the Liangshan army?

In short, why were Ling Zhen and his artillery battalion so vulnerable?

Actually-

The truth is that although artillery was developed long ago at this time, it had many shortcomings.

When Ling Zhen attacked Wanzi City, he fired a total of three cannons.

Only one of them hit the small village on the edge of the duckbill beach, and the others fell into the water, which shows that the performance of this artillery is very unstable and the accuracy is not high.

And the shot that hit didn't cause any damage, which shows that the power of this cannon is really not very good.

Ling Zhen erected the gun mount at the water's edge, Li Jun and Zhang Heng only brought forty or fifty sergeants who knew how to water to go ashore and overturned the gun mount, and after the gun mount was overturned, Ling Zhen brought more than 1,000 people to drive Li Jun and others away, which shows that these more than 1,000 people were not in the artillery position, and they left a short distance, which can only be explained by one explanation - they were afraid of hurting themselves.

In fact, it can also be seen from the specific battle that Ling Zhen did not feel that his own cannon had much effect, on the contrary, he believed in his own martial arts more - Hu Yanzhuo gave Ling Zhen more than 1,000 people, these people should protect these artillery and artillery positions, but Ling Zhen led these 1,000 people to attack the Liangshan Water Army, and was then captured by Ruan Xiaoer.

Ling Zhen's later position in Shuibo Liangshan was to "specialize in making a large and small cannon", Liangshanbo neither established an artillery unit, nor did he give him a high position, from which it can also be seen that the deterrent effect of the artillery at this time is greater than the killing effect - if Ling Zhen and his artillery can make Song Jiang suffer a big hardship, can Liangshan not enter the Tiangang star sequence?

All this shows that the artillery at this time is not to be feared.

Therefore, seeing that the Liangshan army launched dozens of artillery pieces, Qiu Yue was not afraid at all, and still rushed towards the pass at an unabated speed.

Not only Qiu Yue was like this, but Hu Yanzhuo, who was born in the sect, did not take Li Yan's dozens of artillery pieces seriously, which can be seen from the fact that he did not give further instructions.
