Liaodong Front. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Zhao Junxin arrived at two engineer battalions and entered the Yan army's defensive line. At the same time, the Yan army mobilized nineteen artillery batteries to rush to reinforcements.

"Report to the chief, the artillery battery of the Yan army has arrived." A Zhao soldier reported to Meng Fang, an advisor to the Qin army.

"What? Artillery is coming? Come with me. Saying that, Meng Fang excitedly left to check on the artillery reinforcements from the Yan army. But soon he was disappointed.

"This is the artillery unit that the Yan people transferred to me?" Meng Fang was very disappointed to look at the artillery troops reinforced by Yan Guo.

Most of these artillery units were new recruits, and many of them were almost here to transport artillery, and they didn't know how to operate the artillery, because they didn't care about the artillery.

Whether it's rain or other bad weather, they don't care about the protection of the cannons, such as rust. Of course. The artillery they brought in had problems with itself, most of these guns were rusty, whether they were cast iron guns or bronze guns, there were great rust stains on them, and some of the artillery, especially some cast iron guns, had decayed in some places and could no longer be used. What made Meng Fang even more disappointed was that as soon as he stretched out his hand to touch the barrel of the cannon, there were still gunpowder residues on the inner wall, so to speak, these cannons would not have decent maintenance in the hands of Yan Jun at all. It's no wonder that these guns are made like this.

"This, this is not a conveyance of artillery at all, but a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron." Meng Fang said angrily.

"Brother Meng, how is it?" At this moment, Guo Sheng smiled and came over to check the artillery.

'What's wrong, upset?' Guo Sheng asked Meng Fang cautiously, because he saw that the other party's face was not very good-looking.

"Look, is this artillery? This is a group of scrap copper and rotten iron, and it can't be used at all, such artillery, it is better to sell it directly to the scrap iron collector, and it can be sold at a decent price. Meng Fang said disappointedly.

After listening to Meng Fang's disappointed remarks. Guo Sheng checked the situation of these artillery, he didn't know if he didn't look at it, and when he looked at it, it really disappointed Guo Sheng, because many artillery pieces lacked maintenance, and serious artillery was no longer usable. Most guns need to be derusted, re-screened, and maintained before they can be used.

"What's going on?" Guo Sheng grabbed a Yan Army artilleryman and asked.

"Well, sir, I don't know, I'm transporting artillery, not artillery." The Yan artillery said helplessly.

"This." Guo Sheng looked at the other party's figure, and reluctantly let go of the other party and shook his head. Guo Sheng knew as soon as he saw the situation that the other party must have been temporarily arrested to serve as artilleryman. Otherwise he doesn't know anything about artillery.

"Sir, I know what's going on." At this moment, a veteran of the Yan Army in his thirties stood up and said.

"Oh. What is your name? Guo Sheng asked the artilleryman curiously.

"Report to the sir, the Yan Army is stationed in the Twelfth Artillery Company, Corporal Xue Rong." Xue Rong reported.

"Garrison artillery battery?" Guo Sheng asked curiously.

"Yes, sir." Xue Rong nodded in acknowledgement.

"What is a garrison artillery battery?" At this time, Meng Fang came over and asked.

"In order to prevent our Zhao army, the Yan army scattered some artillery companies into various cities and seriously injured us with their firepower." Guo Sheng explained to Meng Fang.

"Oh. I understand. That is, the artillery units placed below. Meng Fang nodded.

"In doing so, you can increase the firepower, but for a long time. It's not good. Guo Sheng said at this time.

"Yes, sir, once our artillerymen are separated from the main force for a long time, it will cause us to be the same as these artillery." At this time, Xue Rong nodded and said.

"And these cannons, I see. You are saying that the long-term indulgence has deprived these soldiers of the discipline that a soldier should have. Let them, like these cannons, have no maintenance and maintenance, which leads to the fact that our cannons cannons can't achieve anything in the end. Meng Fang said to Guo Sheng.

"Yes. That's it, these artillery companies are estimated to be the artillery companies stationed in various places by Yan Guo, and their artillery also lacks maintenance and maintenance of artillery because of the lack of military discipline of artillery. Guo Sheng said at this time.

"Damn. Damn it. After Meng Fang heard this, he finally understood what was going on, the artillery units in his hands were actually the artillery units in the garrison troops, and these artillery units, like their artillery, were rotten and could not be organized again.

"Sir, there are some of us who are willing to surround our own land, and ask the chief for permission to guard us." Xue Rong said.

"Okay, you go and pick some people who know artillery, I'm going to re-select these guns, only in this way can our artillery play a role." Meng Fang said to Xue Rong.

"Yes, sir." Xue Rong nodded and said.

"Disband, and sort out all the artillery in a while." At this time, Meng Fang didn't have the heart to go.

"Sir." At this time, when Guo Sheng was still trying to persuade the other party to say a few words, a soldier came to report.

"Report sir. Sergeant Feng returned. A Zhao soldier reported.

"Oh. He's back. Take me to see it. Guo Sheng said at this time. Then he took the soldier and hurried to find the other party.

"What kind of situation?" Guo Sheng asked when he saw Sergeant Feng Feng.

And Feng Feng wiped his mouth after drinking a big bowl of mutton soup and replied.

"Sir, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Goguryeo people will come over, and the situation I have detected is that a large number of Goguryeo people are gathering on a large scale, and I have seen a lot of Goguryeo tribes gathering, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they will attack us." Feng Feng said. Feng Feng was a scout of the Zhao army, and his main task was to reconnoiter the enemy, in order to effectively find out when the Goguryeo people would attack.

"Can you confirm the news?" Guo Sheng asked at this time.

"Yes, sir, I'm sure, I've seen a large number of Goguryeo people assembled, and their tribes are coming one after another." Feng Feng said.

"There are a lot of them gathered, and according to the current situation, it is very likely that they are attacking the border of Yan." Feng Feng introduced.

"Hmm. The Goguryeo people did not have much food, and their tribes gathered together, which was a signal for an attack. At this time, Guo Sheng said.

"But our defense at this time has not yet been completed, and the Goguryeo people came earlier than we thought." Guo Sheng said worriedly. After all, their numbers are very limited, and the defensive area arranged is very large.
