ps: This is a plus with a collection of 3,000. Hopefully, we will be able to send out the next chapter in a shorter period of time. I have a manuscript in storage, as long as you have a collection.

Don't worry about today's update, don't count the additions, continue the three updates.

Southeast of Yuncheng, Gaoqiao Town.

The soldiers and horses of Guide Town, which came from [Chenzhou] in the east, and Yunyang Town, which drove from [Runing] in the south, finally converged. There were six or seven thousand men on each side, and together they were three thousand or four. It's overwhelming, and it almost occupies every inch of land outside Gaoqiao Town.

The carriage and horse tents were busy for half a day, and by the time the sun was about to set, the military tents and camps were already quite neatly erected. Fode feasted on Ronghua, the chief soldier of Guide Town, Duan Qiang, the deputy general, Ma Wenjie, the chief soldier of Yunyang Town, and Liu Yandong, the general of the staff of Yunyang Town.

After eating and drinking, talking about Fengyue, and discussing a few words of military information, the officers made two guarantees to the local officials, and the banquet ended successfully. No one would think that Chen Jiajun could really shake off the whole world, although they had already caused the Central Plains to shake. Just like the Qing army was going to fight with Burma, Emperor Qianlong rushed to Yongchang with Ming Rui, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and the general of Burma, preparing to mobilize more than 26,000 Manchu and Han officers and soldiers, and set out two divisions to attack Ava, the capital of Burma. For such a big matter, if there was no Chen Jiajun, wouldn't their military and political officials in Henan and Hubei live their lives comfortably.

China is too big. At the height of the country's power, it was hard to imagine any waves that could shake the whole country.

Since the pacification of the rebellion of the three feudatories and the three expeditions of Kang Mazi to Geerdan, the Manchus can only be regarded as a war in the face of the challenge of Qinghai Mongolia and the war of the Hui tribe in Xinjiang. The current attack on Myanmar is the same, and the people and horses used are from the southwest, which has no impact on Hubei, Henan and other places. Even the food and salary have no image of the hinterland of the Central Plains.

However, in the end, the former of the national war and the pacification of civil strife are more eye-catching and more glorious. At the banquet, a group of civil and military officials said that the spirit of the expedition to Burma was much higher than that of the Chen family thief.

But if anyone really thinks that the scene in front of him is the true idea of the Qing army, it is very wrong.

The conquest of Burma is about them? Good and bad are all southwestern dishes. For them, the Chen family thief in front of them is the big problem related to their top and head.

The Chen family's thieves have sharp armor, and the green camp can't compare to this point. But the green battalion has the advantage of the green battalion, and the green battalion has many shotguns, and no matter how strong the armor is, it can't stop a shotgun.

There are not many artillery pieces of the Chen family, although there is an extremely powerful cannon, but the range is too short. This shortcoming greatly limits its actual combat capability. Ronghua and Ma Wenjie are both veterans, and after collecting all kinds of information, they soon discovered this.

And with such a powerful artillery, the consumption of gunpowder can be imagined. The Chen family thieves shrank in Funiu Mountain last year, and this year they went out of the mountains to 'walk' all over Ruzhou, but how much gunpowder could they loot? If the Chen family thieves couldn't use more gunpowder, they wouldn't wait for Wu Shixiong to use it.

In this battle, Guide Town and Yunyang Town both took out their own family backgrounds. The sub-mother cannon, the Weiyuan cannon, the iron shouting cannon [I really don't know what this is], and the mountain splitting cannon [already available in the Qianlong Dynasty], the artillery teams of the two towns together exceeded fifty.

At the end of the banquet, Fode, Ronghua and Ma Wenjie made another piece, and there was a big map on the bookcase. This is the real military consultation, and it is the highest level of the Qing army in this battle.

On the map, the location of Yuncheng is marked with a big red dot, as well as the sand river heading east. Their army will soon cross the Shahe River, and even if they do not enter the county seat of Yuncheng, they must ensure that they can reinforce the county seat of Yuncheng at any time. Then it was to fight with the Chen family thieves outside Yuncheng to determine the winner.

"Lord Fantai, if you want to break the Chen family thief, you must first break the Chen family thief's cannon. The paging of this cannon was miraculous, and it was a great blow to the morale of the soldiers. ”

"Two general soldiers, how to break this cannon?" After paying attention to Chen Jiajun, Forde felt very puzzled about this kind of cannon. Because the information he collected showed that Chen Jiajun's cannon moved very quickly, which means that it was very light.

But how could a lightweight gun have such a lot of pressure?

Although Forde was a civil official, he also knew that the heavier the cannon, the more powerful it became.

"Lord Fantai, no matter how powerful the thief's cannon is, the range is its fatal flaw. According to the intelligence collected by the lower officials, this kind of cannon can only shoot about 30 zhang. We can set up a sub-village on the periphery of the main business, and set up a trench wall on the periphery of the sub-village......"

Ronghua and Ma Wenjie can be said to be 'heroes see the same thing', and they all thought about how to deal with the flying thunder cannon - to distance themselves. A military village was set up outside the camp, and the distance between the military village and the outside of the military village was kept at a distance of 50 zhang, and a ditch was dug, a fence and a low wall were set up, and a police post was set up.

Even if the Chen thieves used artillery fire, they could only hit fences, low walls, and sentries, and even if they could move the artillery team to the outside of the fences, low walls, and trenches, they would not be able to hit the military fortress. The troops and artillery fire in the military village will teach the attacking Chen family thief army a terrible lesson.

Don't forget, as the soldiers of my Qing Dynasty, Guide Town and Yunyang Town, although there are no formed cavalry, there are still some war horses, plus the militia they recruited are strong, and the two towns each formed a horse team of two or three hundred people. Yes, such cavalry cannot be called cavalry, only horse corps. Poor ponies, a big man like Shi Meng rode on it and couldn't wait to be able to touch the ground with both feet.

With thousands of years of steppe horse bloodlines, castration year after year, today's Mongolian horses and the horses derived from them are really hard to see.

The 300 horses and tall mules that Chen Jiajun managed to muster also had such problems.

The ancient Chinese custom of castrating military horses has completely destroyed the fine bloodline of East Asian horses. Even Chen Ming's own mount was only more than four feet tall.

At the end of May, the vanguard troops of both sides arrived at the city of Yuncheng at almost the same time.

As the landlord, the four gates of Yuncheng were closed, and Ding Zhuang, the militia at the head of the city, looked nervous and frightened. At this moment, I don't know how many people are silently reciting Amitabha Buddha in their hearts, the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable.

On the Qing side, the Chenzhou battalion under the jurisdiction of Guide Town, the left and right battalions under the command of the general army of Guide Town, as well as the Shangqiu Shoucheng Battalion, Yongcheng Battalion, Kaocheng Battalion, Chenzhou Battalion and others. The number of people is the smallest among the three towns in Henan, and whoever lets Guide is next to Kaifeng Mansion. There is a Kaifeng garrison camp in Kaifeng Mansion, and there is a standard camp for the governor, and Guide Town is so close that it is not possible to be strong and strong.

Ronghua is the least one of the three general soldiers in Henan, and this time, Guide Town mobilized 3,000 people and horses, and has hollowed out the family of Guide Town. The Chenzhou battalion has a small 400 people, but with the Chenzhou militia and volunteers around them, the total strength is close to 1,000 people. Who made Chenzhou Mansion have a large population, located in the plain, and there are more large landlords.

As for Chen Jiajun, that is Chen Erbao's vanguard officer.

"Kill, kill me—"
