Although Kaifeng has been busy opening warehouses and releasing grain, collecting land and dividing fields in the past few days, the city defense has not fallen at all. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 When the killing wind was still in Kaifeng City, the city fortifications were prepared until Zhu Qing returned to Kaifeng from the capital. Two more lines of defense were added: a minefield and a firearms city.

In fact, after Zhu Qing's large army moved from Shanhaiguan to Kaifeng. The last thing Zhu Qing left behind was to try his best to develop the weapons in the "Artifact Spectrum". This is the most likely new type of armament to be realized in the conditions of the time.

And after arriving in Kaifeng, Zhu Qing asked the shopkeeper Yuan to step up the research of two weapons, one is fire thunder, and the other is heavy Tiangang five thunder.

Fire Thunder is actually a kind of landmine, but at that time, it could not be triggered automatically, and it still needed to pull the string, and even so, it was already considered a leader in the cold weapon battlefield. The fire and thunder have only been tested once, that is, during the Lantern Festival, Yuan took his own hand, and dived out of Kaifeng City under the protection of White Tiger, Xuanwu and others.

At that time, Zhu Qing received only a few short sentences from the letter from the white tiger: There was a sound of thunder, and the trees outside the three zhang were falling, and the thunder was also thundering!

The power of fire and thunder in the room.

With fire and thunder as the line of defense, there is no doubt that there is an extra layer of strong protection.

In addition, Zhu Qing also asked Yuan to develop a heavy-duty Tiangang five thunder, that is, from the original Tiangang five thunders on the basis of upgrading to nine thunders, although the upgraded version of Tiangang five thunders is heavier than the original version, but it can achieve continuous fire, and it can be fired nine times in a row. Considering the characteristics of the heavy Tiangang five mines that are not easy to move, and the use of minefields, which is not suitable for vehicles and horses, Zhu Qing decided to build a firearms city for the Tiangang five mines to be stationed, so that the firearms city is no different from the current pillbox, which cannot be destroyed without heavy weapons.

But these things, except for Zhu Qing and a few generals under him, no one knows what this thing is used for. Six points outside the city, two on the left and right, and two in the middle.

Li Zicheng once sent spies to study it, and when the results were reported, he said: This thing is round and columnar, and there are holes in the rock wall.

When Zhu Qing built the six pillboxes, he was not damaged or hindered in the slightest.

It wasn't until just now that he instructed Xuanwu to let the shooter in charge of Tiangang Five Thunder move the firearms to the bunker.

With the help of the two weapons of Fire Thunder and Tiangang Five Thunder, plus his more than 300 fire guns and the 100 fire guns that the White Lotus Sect had just supported, although Kaifeng City's city defense did not have an advantage in numbers, it was not easy for cold weapons to break through Kaifeng City, which was advanced in hot soldiers and weapons.

In order to ensure the complete strategy, Zhu Qing personally inspected the minefield.

"How?" Zhu Qing asked the white tiger who was monitoring the firearms soldier Mine.

"General, it's almost finished, and the last row of fire and mines hasn't been laid yet."

Zhu Qing nodded, "Hurry up, I estimate that Li Zicheng's vanguard will arrive soon." Remember, be sure to send someone to guard the fork in the road ahead, and don't let people trespass on minefields. If there is anyone who returns to Kaifeng, let go of the path, and say that it is the army attacking the city, and the city gate is closed. Zhu Qing was worried that uninformed people would break into the minefield and expose the minefield, and they would fall short.

"The last general understands that the most vigilant Jinyi guards have been sent to guard both sides, and no one can approach the minefield!" The white tiger replied that the white tiger is still relatively reliable. Zhu Qing nodded after hearing this, "Your own people should also pay attention to safety, after all, this fire thunder is the first time to use it." ”

"Understood!"

"By the way, how's Firearms City arranged?" Zhu Qing said, walking towards the nearest bunker, asking as he walked.

"I'm also hurrying up the arrangement. Xuanwu has already arranged it himself, and he is only missing the middle two. Still in the process of being sorted out. "The white tiger followed Zhu Qing into the bunker to check, this bunker is not big or small, and it can accommodate three people. There are three holes on the rock wall, all of them are the best shooting angles of each road section, considering the power of Tiangang five thunders, in order to avoid accidentally injuring their own pillboxes, each pillbox is separated by one mile, and six pillboxes complete the layout of the entire firearms defense line outside Kaifeng City.

"General ......" saw Zhu Qing come in, and the three soldiers inside saluted.

Zhu Qing nodded, "Okay." I adjusted the muzzle of the gun, and when the enemy came, I took aim, and I could only fire when I heard the order! ”

"Yes!"

"Once the enemy rushes through one of the holes, immediately adjust the five thunders to the next hole, the main gunner must always keep an eye on the enemy and make the best judgment, and the two deputies must obey the orders of the main gun at all times. If not, military law will deal with it! Zhu Qing knew the importance of the Tiangang Five Thunders in the entire battle situation, and whether he could rely on them to stop Li Zicheng's 100,000 army would depend on these six pillboxes, so he was particularly advised.

"The last general obeys!"

"Once the five thunders of Tiangang disrupt the enemy army, a cloud platform will be built immediately, and the insinuator will be in place, and the general will be singled out!" Zhu Qing commanded.

The gimbal is a set of wooden shelves above the bunker, once the control rope is cut, the large stone will immediately lift the wooden shelf, on the wooden frame, there is a platform, which can accommodate one person, built for sharpshooters, used to shoot enemy generals. And these sharpshooters are the young killer Heisha who picked out the seedlings from the brocade guards for special training. So it is conceivable that the Black Shath is the leader of this insinuator. However, he seems to be busy with other things.

"Why don't you see the black people?" Sure enough, Zhu Qing asked.

"I guess I'm looking for a better ambush spot." White Tiger Dao, the insinuator is not only these six points, the black slayer must ensure that after these six points of fire are broken, the other insinuation points can cause damage to the enemy generals, at least disrupt the opponent's offensive deployment.

Zhu Qing nodded after hearing this, "Originally, this ambush was always done by Brother Shiqian and Suzaku. But now that neither of them is in Kaifeng, I hope that the black evil will not have any mistakes. He believes in the ability of the black sha, he is just worried about the safety of the black sha, he knows that the black sha's unyielding nature is his weapon to hurt people, and it is also the weapon that is most easily used by others.

"Don't worry, I'll watch him more." The white tiger replied.

Zhu Qing nodded and walked out of the bunker. It just so happened that Xuanwu came back.

"General, the Firearms City has been arranged, should you start pulling the barbed wire now?" In the last battle, everyone knew the power of barbed wire, which was one of the most effective ways to hold back cavalry.

Zhu Qing shook his head, "Wait." Last time, Li Zicheng suffered a loss from the barbed wire, and he will not be easily fooled at this time, and pulling the barbed wire in advance will force him to use reconnaissance infantry, so that our minefields will be exposed. ”

"Then why not move the minefield back?" White Tiger and Xuanwu asked.

Zhu Qing said, "Although the minefield is the best to move back to conceal, but it is too risky, too close to the city gate, if you wait for the enemy to enter the minefield, it will not be far from the enemy to ascend the city gate, and such a large minefield, we are using it together for the first time, this power is not yet known, if you accidentally injure your own people, or destroy the city gate, it will be worth the loss." Zhu Qing analyzed.

When Baihu and Xuanwu heard this, they nodded, "The general is smart." ”

"If the minefield can inflict heavy damage on the vanguard of the intruding army, then the answer is effective. You and I all know very well that although we have this firearm, after all, the number is limited, and the enemy army has as many as 100,000 people, and it is impossible to stop it completely by firearms, and what I want to fight is the enemy's sharp spirit! Zhu Qingdao said. Zhu Qing understands very well that no matter how powerful the firearms are, after all, they are still very low-level, and the quantity and ammunition are insufficient, but if he can bluff Li Zicheng, that is what he wants.

"The general is right, I'll go down and arrange for them to lay barbed wire behind the minefield." Xuanwu Dao is about to leave.

was drunk by Zhu Qing again, "Wait." There are also two lanes in front of the minefield, so that the vanguard of the intruding army cannot easily enter our territory. ”

"This ...... Didn't you just now worry about enemy scouts? White Tiger asked.

"Lay out two lanes in a row three openings in front of the minefield, and I'm going to make them scratch their heads." Zhu Qing said that in fact, he wanted to confuse the enemy.

"The last general understands!" Xuanwu answered, and he was going again. was stopped by Zhu Qing again, "Wait." I thought about it for a while, you don't have to go, this side of the matter, General Baihu has to spend a little more time, and when the minefield is almost arranged, General Baihu will arrange to pull the barbed wire. You have a temporary task. ”

"What task?" Xuanwu asked.

"I can't let Li Zicheng's rear be too peaceful. You take Lin Bai's death squad, touch the rear of the enemy army from the trail, and hand over the death squad to Lin Bai before coming back. There are no people in the city anymore, and I don't feel at ease to let the junior officers go. This is a temporary decision by Zhu Qing. Because he felt that the two generals of Sai Shiqian and Lin Bai were mixed in the enemy army, which was a bit risky and a bit wasteful, and it was better to stab a big one!

"Do you want Brother Shiqian to come back?" Xuanwu asked.

Zhu Qing shook his head, "No." The two of them had to be together, Lin Bai was too dangerous to be alone.

As soon as Xuanwu and Baihu heard this, they glanced at each other, and knew that Zhu Qing was worried that Lin Bai was too reckless.

"The last general obeys!" Xuanwu answered, and then went to the death team that was anxious about Lin Bai, secretly detoured to the rear of the enemy from the trail, and handed it over to Lin Bai and Sai Shiqian.
