Chapter 642: It's Such a Big "World"!

The sky above the county town of Guiyang was covered by the roar of cannons like thunder.

Since the tiger squat cannon was put into the battlefield, the first to sound the cannon sound was Shonan Gannan.

Not long ago, Ling Zhen appeared on the battlefield in Guiyang with a battalion of artillery, and the life of the Lan family's father and son was getting worse day by day. Lan Gui asked Liu Yanqing for help many times, but all he was waiting for was the three or five thousand people brought by He Li, which was a.

Moreover, He Li himself did not enter Guiyang first, is he the minister of Jingnan Tuanlian, and continues to sit in Shaozhou City, Guangnan, to raise people's courage and food. Annoyed Lan Gui wanted to spit on him, but when He Li entered Xitong because of this, he still had great respect for him. This five-year champion of Zhenghe, Lan Gui was very, very respected earlier. But now it seems that the reader is just a mouthful. When it comes to the national disaster, the mouth is unreliable, and it depends on the military ministers with swords and guns in their hands.

"Deputy Governor, the people of the Northern Dynasty are pouring up again. The major general can't support it...... "The firearms of the Northern Army were originally thought by Miao Yao to be immortal Taoism, and they were invincible. That is, it is rainy in Lingnan, which gives Lan Gui a chance to take a breath. In addition, He Li transported countless firecrackers from the rear, and the crackling fireworks all day long made Miao Yao accustomed to it. Only after Yizhang's Huayin Pass and Heifeng Pass surrendered to the Northern Dynasty, Wuzi was able to hold on to this time.

If he couldn't support it, he retreated and told Kuang Shen to push the Han people's militia up. In the evening we will retire ......."

Lan Gui looked at the sun in the western sky, it would be dark in one hour at most, and at that time he would be able to take the opportunity to leave. In this vast mountain, the northern army could not stop them.

Lan Gui didn't make up his mind to retreat last night, and today he fought hard all day, and the count of the lost soldiers made him feel like a knife.

The artillery of the Qi army could not suppress the bows and crossbows in the city at all. The range of the tiger squat cannon is not as good as the stone throwing, but with the shield car, the tiger squat cannon of the Qi army moved to the front line, and every shot was a crack, and the bullets were as big as marbles, but they were sharper than the crossbows, and it was not a problem to pierce through heavy armor.

What did Lan Guineng rely on to block the attack of the Qi army in Guiyang City?

The small stone cannons + bed crossbows on the mountain, the strong bows and crossbows up and down, together with deep trenches, penetrate the front and rear breastwork stone barriers. There are also boxes of earth-shattering thunder, fireballs, fierce fire oil tanks, poisonous fire smoke balls, etc. Zhao Song had suffered a loss of gunpowder, and the earth-shattering thunder was not such a complex weapon, and it was easily imitated by the Southern Song Dynasty. Including the counterweight stone cannon, the secrets that Lu Qian carefully hidden, under the continuous expansion of the scale of the Qi army, finally could not be hidden.

And Lan Gui don't feel that Zhao Song is sorry for him, without the latter's support, how can he make his soldiers wear armor? How can you get such a right weapon? So much so that he was able to resist Zhang Zhongxiong for so many days.

Of course, this is also due to the complex terrain around Gyeyang. If it was a single Guiyang City, Zhang Zhongxiong would have already succeeded in it.

In this place of Shonan, the castle is a flat land in the middle of the mountains, and the same is true of Gyeyang Castle. The danger lies not in the city itself, but in the mountains outside the city.

Lan Kuang shrank his head and hid behind the chest wall, gray-faced, looking up at the blue sky, wanting to cry without tears.

This weapon of the Northern Army is really unreasonable, and when it comes over, it is like a thousand bows and crossbows fired in unison. The strength is very strong, the heavy shield and long card can be shattered, and it is even more amazing to hit the person. Minor bones are broken, and severe ones are killed on the spot.

It's like a mace and a blunt weapon like an iron bone hitting a heavily armored soldier. Through the thick heavy armor, it can still be fatal with one blow!

"Major General, the Northern Thieves are attacking again." A guard shouted in Lan Kuangshen's ear.

Lan Kuangshen stretched out his head to take a look, and the figure halfway up the mountain was longing, and he didn't know how many people came. "Throw, throw it all down." Keep it for every fart, throw these earth-shattering thunderbolts, thunderbolts, and poisonous fireballs down, and clean yourself when you leave.

The Qi army's tiger squat cannon is really a great weapon in mountain warfare, small in size, light in weight, fast in movement, easier to place, and easier to operate. When this kind of small cannon is fought in the mountains, there is no need for an artillery car, as long as the baffles on both sides are installed to block the arrows and crossbows, two strong men can carry it to run on the mountain like flying.

can always teach Song Jun to complain bitterly.

Of course, the pace of the Qi army's offensive was very slow. Not to mention the big pits and deep ditches dug by the Song army, under the cover of the stone artillery bed crossbow + strong bow and crossbow, the Qi army just filled in those ravines and bulldozed those chest walls, and it was enough time. How fast must the shield carts be moving in such a bad terrain?

But no matter how slow the speed is, it can move forward, and it can reach the end. We can't fight a war with a momentary speed, and we must have the spirit of foolishness in siege warfare.

The main battlefield is no longer here.

Just when Zhang Zhongxiong launched an attack on Guiyang, the Qi army in Jiangnan had officially launched an attack on Fujian Road.

The Southern Expeditionary Army was divided into three routes: one was led by Chao Gai to attack from Shanguan on the Jiangnan West Road as a suspicious army. This place is the first pass into Fujian, controllable to the right of the river and choke Ouyue, pillow Jiangxi and Fujian boundary rush, with the province's golden Ou. Since ancient times, there have been "Xianxia and Shanguan in Fujian, Tongguan and Linjin in Qin, and Jiange and Qutang in Shu." If it is lost, Fujian cannot be guaranteed".

Li Jun joined forces with the Manichaean sailors, and Mingzhou took Fuzhou as a surprise soldier with the boat division; At the same time, the three Hung of the Nguyen Thiong will also cooperate with it.

Fang Laqin led the Manichaean '500,000' army from southern Zhejiang to Jianzhou as the main soldier.

Li Heng and Xu Huiyan were based in Nanjianzhou and Fuzhou, and Jianzhou was the barrier to the north of Nanjianzhou, with heavy troops stationed.

The Southern Expeditionary Army attacked at the same time on three routes: the main army was looking for the enemy's main force to fight; Strange soldiers make the enemy unclear; Suspicious soldiers make the enemy misjudge, divide his forces, and make decisions in disorder.

Although the final result had not yet reached Lan Gui's ears, Lan Gui didn't think that the Fujian land could be saved. Looking at it this way, the Zhao official family of the Southern Song Dynasty must have fled to the ...... of Liangguang, and they can't go to Lianzhou like this. No matter how many Miao Yao there are, it is not as important as the geography of Shaozhou.

After all, only when he arrived in Shaozhou and got there, did he have the opportunity to get back the capital he had folded out in one fell swoop.

And Zhang Zhongxiong on the other side, the Song army's arrangement measures in the defensive battle of Guiyang surprised him very much. Song Jun's speed of learning lessons and summing up experience was faster than he had imagined. Although the battle of Guiyang was due to the terrain, it has to be said that it was very difficult for the Song army to succeed.

Before dark, the Qi army reached the west gate of Guiyang County, and the resistance of the Song army in the city was like tissue paper, which was broken by someone at a stab. This kind of fighting, in favor of the Qi army. The small county town of Guiyang is much easier to fight than the mountains outside the city.

Unfortunately, it's already dark. Even if you take the city, you can't pursue the remnants of the enemy.

The Qi army now has an overall advantage, but Zhang Zhongxiong is not willing to take risks easily.

His father's old stubbornness finally turned back, and he was appreciated by the emperor, and appointed the political envoy of the right of Su and the Taishou of Lanzhou, this official position naturally cannot be compared with the first assistant and the second assistant, but this is also a good start. Compared with earlier, Zhang Zhongxiong is already satisfied.

The weight on his shoulders is now greatly reduced, because now he just needs to fight for himself.

Zhang Zhongxiong was unwilling to chase Song Jun to the death in the dark. Even if there were many generals in front of the army who asked him to fight, they fought very well in this battle of Guiyang, limited to the terrain, and they always couldn't make a move. Now that the overall situation has finally been decided, I don't want to beat the water dogs, and take this opportunity to teach them how to behave.

It's just that Zhang Zhongxiong resolutely refused. In this kind of place, there is too much unpredictability in the night pursuit.

It was only half an hour after dark, and a group of red-clothed soldiers stepped on the head of Guiyang City like the stars and the moon, protecting Zhang Zhongxiong's not-so-tall figure.

The regular army is clothed, and the garrison army is scarlet, this is the military system of the Qi army.

Most of the corpses had been cleaned up, and the purple-black-brown blood stains on the steps of the stairs, and the strong smell of corpses and bloody smell could not be covered.

However, these smells had no effect on Zhang Zhongxiong at all. He has experienced more wars, what kind of tragic scene he has never seen? Don't mention the past, let's just say that the current battle, Guiyang is warm and rainy, every time the fight, the time is delayed for a long time, those mountains and valleys, you can see the rotting and deteriorating corpses, countless white maggots in the broken belly, the brain case drilled and rolled, and some corpses belly swollen like a pregnant woman in October, inside is full of yellow-brown corpse water, once moved, the smell is disgusting enough.

"General, do you want to ...... them," Yang Zaili said, gesturing with a gesture. Most of these captives were group training from Liangguang, and if they all died, the news spread to the past, and when the local people rejoined the group, they should think a little more. ”

Zhang Zhongxiong's eyes couldn't help narrowing, what Yang Zaili said was very true. "Good strategy, I should report to Hengyang as soon as possible." The latter is where Zhai Jin, the head of the Shonan Soldiers and Horses, is seated.

……

Even the Forbidden City in the official history is not one-tenth the size of the Forbidden City.

Lu Qian was looking at a map that had just been made, a map that included more than eighty percent of the power of the earth at this time. A map covering most of Eurasia.

This map is not only watched by Lu Qian, but also by Fang Jinzhi and other five daughters.

At this time, their mouths were wide open, and a pair of eyeballs were eager to fall out of their sockets. "This ......," Fang Jinzhi was the first to call out. Born in Jiangnan, she naturally knows that there are her own countries overseas, and the number will not be less. But I didn't expect the number to be so large, and I didn't expect the territory of Huanghuang China to be so small.

Hu Sanniang was the most straightforward, and compared it with her hand on the palm-sized "China", "It's so big?" There was shock in the voice.

No one can accept that the 'world' they have always come to is only so big.

Lu Qian looked very interested, pointed to the map and said: "This is Qilu, and this red star is Yidu." This is Bianliang, and this is Jiangnan. This is the ...... of Guanzhong and Longxi"

"Don't you think it's small?"
