The artillery firing lasted for half an hour, and five tactical shelling were carried out to test the adaptability of the battlefield on the ground.

Gongliangxiu's gaze fell on the young man from time to time, and he said with doubt:

"Why are there so many teenagers in the Xian army, and the youngest is only twelve or thirteen?"

"The military battalion is the elite formation of the military attachés of our Xian army, and as seen by the good brothers, it is the youth battalion of our military battalion, which draws the elite of literate teenagers from all over the country to teach tactical tactics, and in the future, the military attaches of all departments of the Xian army will be trained by the military battalion.

Only in this way can the method of our army and the art of killing the old pawn be passed on to the new pawn, so that the old pawn will not be completely lost and his vitality will be greatly damaged after a big war. As long as the armed battalion still exists, the elite of the country still exists. ”

"But what do I think, this method is quite similar to the Jin Xuedi Military Academy, didn't you learn it from the Jin Xuedi people?"

"Yes, but no. A year before Ben Shuai's southern expedition, he founded the military battalion and the martial arts hall to specialize in this position, which is similar to the same, but it is ten times better than Jin Xuedi. I taught the essence of the art of war in the martial arts hall, looking at the countries of the Central Plains, there is no second one. ”

"Then you're not afraid of leaking secrets in the future?"

"Hehe..."Bai Liyan disagreed, not worried about leaking secrets at all: "Brother Gongliang, the art of war is not about what you see, but about who uses this art of war." You and I can win with this art of war, if it is a general person who uses this art of war, why should the commander worry.

Besides, since ancient times, thousands of armies are easy to get, and good marshals are even more rare, the way of the art of war, the true meaning is to be flexible, not to care about the rigidity and not to know the flexibility, you say yes or no? ”

"I see...... It seems that the good general of Xianguo in the future is on this young man. ”

"When the youth is strong, the country is strong, and the foundation of the country is also ......"

Baili Yan was meaningful, and Gongliang Xiu saw more lofty ambitions and ideals in his eyes. After a while, Gongliangxiu thought of something else, so he asked again:

"Around the beginning of the first month, it is rumored that Changsun Guoxin made the Tianwei General Cannon, which is very powerful, and can shoot sixty-three catties of iron pills seven miles away, can Yongxing City make this cannon in the future?"

Ben Hou knows a little about this matter, but Brother Gongliang can know about the "Heavenly Boat" of Changsun Country twelve years ago. ”

"Skyship?" Gongliang Xiu frowned and tried to think for a moment, as if he had thought of something: "When Yongxing Hou said this, I remembered that after the southern border was returned to the north, I heard that the artillery of the Changsun Kingdom had some relationship with the heavenly ship, could it be that the Tianwei General Cannon was carried by the heavenly ship?" ”

"Exactly." Bai Liyan affirmed, and his expression immediately became serious: "I really don't hide it from my father-in-law, I once asked Yuke to sneak into the Changsun Kingdom to find the heavenly ship, this ship is very huge, can plant more than 30,000 stones, has one hundred and nine excellent cannons, and has a range of up to six to seven miles. ”

"So, the artillery of the Changsun Kingdom really originated from this heavenly ship?"

"Yes, but Changsun Guo can't make this artillery steel, so he has been casting cannons with pig iron and refined iron all these years, and the range and power are far inferior to the Tianshu artillery. In addition, the firearms used by the soldiers were found on the heavenly ship, and the power was very amazing, and the iron was as indestructible as mud within one hundred and fifty steps, which was by no means comparable to the earth-shaking fire on the shoulder.

Therefore, I have been worried that there may be a strong enemy in the north of the North Sea, and if one day like the Jin Xuedi people invade our Central Plains from the sea, the consequences may be unimaginable. This is also the purpose of my Yongxing City to refine new steel day and night at any cost.

In addition, Brother Gongliang probably didn't know that the people on the ship on this day were not human. ”

"Not human?" Gongliang Xiu frowned and pondered, and then said: "That's a foreigner who is different from my Central Plains people, like Jin Xuedi's people? ”

"No, according to the investigation of the royal guest, the person who pilots the heavenly boat is more than two heads tall and tall, with eyes under his armpits, twice the size of ordinary people, six fingers on each hand, and green skin."

The more Baili Yan said, the more mysterious it became, Gongliangxiu couldn't help but glance at him, only thinking that he was alarmist:

"How can there be such a human form in the world, how different is it from a monster."

"Ben Shuai also suspects that there is a country of monsters in the north of the North Sea, and its combat power is far above that of our Central Plains people. If it is attacked from the sea one day, it will not be as simple as the Jin Xuedi people will commit a crime in the north once in 30 years, and the quantity and quality of their artillery and firearms are far superior to those of our Central Plains, and the countries of our Central Plains will never be able to resist and parry. ”

Gongliangxiu looked at Bailiyan with a kind of contempt and incredulous eyes, which showed that he didn't believe it at all.

"What, Brother Gongliang doesn't believe it?"

Gongliang Xiu shook his head and said:

"I don't believe it. If there is such a monster in the world, why is it never in the books? ”

"It's always true that day." Bai Liyan emphasized.

"But if there are people in the north of the North Sea, how can the Captain Sun National Navy not know it?"

"If it is 20,000 miles away, even the largest warship in the Central Plains of China will not be able to sail out of the North Sea, and it will be cut off from water in two months. According to Ben Shuai's estimates, there should be land in the north of the North Sea day and night in June, and the heavenly ship carries 30,000 stones, which is enough to feed and drink thousands of people for several months. ”

Bai Liyan found out at this time that he was playing the piano to the cow, as if it was the result of modern people telling ancient people that the earth is round, you are mentally ill, and they are fools.

From the charts stolen one after another, it can be roughly inferred that the celestial ship came from the continent of the northern hemisphere 20,000 to 20,000 miles away, and that there are large islands and islands dotted between the northern and southern hemispheres.

The total self-sustaining power of fresh water and food can be roughly estimated from the Tianchuan captured by Changsun Guo, which is about six months to seven months, which is about the same order of magnitude as the Victory.

Considering their size, the race needs to consume more food than humans, and the minimum self-sustaining capacity should not be less than five months, and the maximum one-way voyage is half the self-sustaining capacity, and it can sail at sea for two and a half months.

When Changsun Guo captured this celestial ship, there was not much food left on board, so it was judged that this ship was on an exploration mission, or after being lost and deviated, it kept sailing south, and did not encounter islands and land that could be replenished, until it completely lost its ability to sail after the food was exhausted, and finally drifted to the vicinity of the North Sea, where it was intercepted by Changsun Guo.

Most of Gongliangxiu's cognition comes from the surviving ancient classics, which seriously lags behind the development of civilization on the entire planet, and the strongest opponent so far is none other than the Jin Xuedi people who have entered the feudal Iron Age.

At this time, he told him that there are still monsters carrying guns and cannons on the other side of the ocean, and flying planes in two hundred years, where can there be these in today's classics, of course he doesn't believe it, Jin Xuedi is far away, and it is the limit of his cognition.

It's as if the Western powers knocked on the door of China with strong ships and cannons, but the old men of the Qing Dynasty were still turning over the historical materials of Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty, looking at Shi Lang's writings, and even didn't know where Britain was, and then told the emperor that this place in Britain was a joke made up by local officials to defraud the central government.

At the end of the shelling, Bailiyan gave Gongliangxiu five pairs of eight-fold telescopes, which surprised him, and Gongliangxiu immediately thought of Bailiyan's name as a gift, which was actually a promotion.

The telescope of Xianguo, which is four times larger, is sold for 500 inches of silver, and the cost price is only one or two inches of silver. At present, the eight-fold telescope is preferentially equipped with the Xianjun army, and the external price is 700 inches of silver. If Gongliangxiu knew that the profits were hundreds of times, most likely he would have reprimanded Bailiyan's interests.

In addition to the light transmittance of the eight-fold telescope, which is better than that of the early quadruple mirror, the re-improved glass formula and process make the lens more pure and transparent, without early paste and impurities.

In addition, a batch of monocular twelve-fold mirrors and sixteen-fold telescopes were also produced, which could only be used for fixed-point observation because of the heavy weight and the need for support frames.

The next day, Gongliangxiu left Lintai and returned to Yingcheng, and Bailiyan led 50,000 horses to Zhaocheng.

At this time, the 10,000 soldiers and horses of Gongcheng to move Yin Qu have arrived, and Shentong led 70,000 soldiers and horses out of Yin Qu to the south of Lintai, and walked out for half a day.

"Respect to the Heavenly King, Bai Liyan, the deputy commander of the Xian Army, led 50,000 troops, set off from Lintai around the time and went straight to Zhaocheng."

The scout said quickly, and the supernatural power was surprised:

"Can you see clearly, the person who led the troops is the deputy marshal of the Xian army?"

"I didn't see the boss, but the Xianjun raised the banner of deputy marshal Bailiyan, which should not be wrong."

"Shhh...... At this time, he transferred 50,000 soldiers and horses to Zhaocheng to do something. Thinking of this, the supernatural power asked again:

"It can be seen that there are cavalry of the Xian army accompanying you?"

"I haven't seen it, it's all the elite of the infantry army."

"Is there a sky-shattering fire with you?"

"No, the Heaven-Shaking Fire should still be in Lintai City. In addition, yesterday the Xian army practiced a fire-shaking drill outside the north gate, which was very fierce. ”

"Got it, stand down."

"No!"

When the scouts left, the supernatural power found a topographical map and looked at the city:

"It's weird, Baili Yan divided 50,000 soldiers to block Zhaocheng, does it have other plans?"

After thinking about it for a while, Shentong lifted the pen and ink to repair a book and put it into the iron letter, and then picked up the curtain and said to the soldiers:

"Let Song He come to see me."

"No!"

When he was young, Song He came on horseback, and the divine power lifted the curtain and said:

"Immediately order someone to go to Zhaocheng, and immediately transfer this iron letter to Zhou Kong, there must be no mistake!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Zhaocheng guard Zhou Kong is a slave, Sun Guoren, this person is both wise and brave, is one of the few good generals in the Black Turban Army, the magic power will be Zhou Kong in the Zhaocheng important place, intended to hide it in the snow, so that the outside world does not know Zhou Kong's temperament, fortunately, at the critical moment, as a killer army, to the Xian army with a thunderous blow.

Bailiyan personally led the army to Zhaocheng, and as long as the supernatural power released Zhou Kong in advance, Bailiyan weakened 50,000 horses.

Three days later, the Xian army arrived ten miles east of Zhaocheng and moved to five miles southeast of Zhaocheng, close to Qiulinxiazhai.

On the mountain, Bailiyan asked Gu Zhongdao:

"General Gu, where does Fang Ke, the defender of the city, come from?"

"Deputy Marshal Qiyu, Fang Ke is a native of Zhaocheng, fifty-two this year, he was a salt worker in his early years, and later was arrested and imprisoned for smuggling and selling salt.

"Well, speaking of which, it is not a big crime to sell smuggled salt in Xianguo. So what is this person's courage and strategy? ”

"This person has strange powers, and his art of war is average. Ye Dadu Governor had a fight with him, and many of his soldiers were slaves, except for some beatings, Fang Ke was not very powerful. ”

After Gu Zhongyan finished, Zhao Anling said:

"The city is full of hills and forests, the city is built on the hills, and the gods are stationed here, there must be something special, and the Hou Ye should not be underestimated."

"Well, Mr. Zhao is right, although Zhaocheng is not a place that our army must take, but on the west side of our army's northward throat, if we don't take this place, Xingcheng Port will always threaten our army, and the supernatural power must think that our army is eager to go north to capture Yinqu Gongcheng, Xuping, and Penny, and deliberately dilute Zhaocheng.

It can be seen that the supernatural power must have hidden a mystery in this photo, but fortunately, after our army went north, it suddenly came out, causing our army to fall into the belly and back of the enemy.

Jiang Jie! ”

"The end will be."

"Send more secret sentinel scouts to the mountains and around the city to prevent the enemy from sneaking up."

"No."

……

"Tian Peng."

"Yes." Tian Peng responded, his mouth kept eating, and it seemed that he would never be able to eat enough.

"This Fang Ke is full of strange powers, he is twenty-two in fifty this year, speaking of which he is already an old horseman, thirteen years older than you, if he encounters this person in the future, this handsome man will be handed over to you."

"Don't worry, we Tian Peng haven't met any opponents in the Central Plains, compared to strength, we don't have a problem."
