"Yes!" The generals responded at the same time.

Sun Yuan: "In this battle, our army and Wang Yuncheng Sichuan army are the vanguard of the army, and our army has to open the way in front of the Sichuan army. When they arrive at the camp of Jiannu, they will be the first to enter the battlefield. I have promised in front of the Overseer that I will win the first battle with me. Because it was a rapid march, this battle could not carry a large number of baggage and artillery. ”

Hearing this, Fei Hong interjected: "General, although Jiannu was a barbarian before, there were a large number of cavalry in the army, and the way of fighting came and went. But in the past ten years, Jiannu has become more and more disciplined in fighting, quite the flavor of our Ming border army, and their old Chinese army camp must have built a large number of fortifications. If we don't bring artillery over, how can we attack the fortification? ”

At this point, he was already worried.

The commander of the artillery battalion, the mercenary Pablo, also jumped out and shouted in a broken official dialect with the flavor of Cantonese: "No, no, general, I have been training this artillery for a year, why don't you take me to this battle?" I heard that the barbarians in the Northeast have robbed a lot of gold and silver this time, could it be that the general wants to swallow it alone and not give me any benefits? In the words of you Orientals, if you eat meat, you have to give me a mouthful of soup to drink, right? ”

Pablo is a veteran mercenary, despite his young age

。 The so-called mercenaries are those who make a living by fighting wars. He came to the East, which is full of gold, and he came to make a fortune. To be honest, Sun Yuan doesn't pay that salary every month, and he doesn't care about it!

Therefore, for the past year, Pablo has been thinking day and night about going to the battlefield and getting mercenary money.

Now, seeing that this is an unprecedented battle, Sun Yuan didn't even take himself to play. Thinking about it, Sun Yuan must be reluctant to come up with money to reward himself. Could it be that this cunning Grand Duke of the East is thinking that he will only treat me as an artillery instructor, and when I have trained qualified artillerymen for him, he will kick me away with Pablo?

No, where in the world is it so easy?

Westerners pay attention to cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing their parents, which is tolerable and intolerable.

Pablo was so angry that his face turned red.

Hearing his angry words, everyone couldn't help but laugh. These foreign devils really love money more than the other, this surnamed Ba not only loves money, but also lustful. However, the devil is not useless, and the professionalism alone is worthy of admiration.

Sun Yuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Pablo, it's not that I won't take you there, it's really that this battle plan is a fast word." The cannon is too heavy for maneuvering, so I can only say sorry. Or, let's talk about it in the next field battle! ”

Indeed, not to mention anything else, the six cannons on hand of the Guangning Township Army need more than a dozen large animals to be dragged in front when marching, and dozens of soldiers need to push it behind. The ancient doctrine was muddy and difficult to walk, and if you couldn't walk a few steps, the wheels of the gun cart would sink into the ground, and you couldn't walk a few miles in a day. Isn't it a mistake to lead them to attack?

As for attacking the fortification, Sun Yuan has already thought of a way, that is, to attack the city in the cave. That is, first dig a pit under the enemy's fortifications and bury gunpowder to explode. It doesn't take much, just blow up a small gap so that the soldiers can get in.

"No, no." Pablo shook his head and exclaimed, "God knows the next time there is a war, and I don't know what day it will take." The general thinks the cannon is heavy, and I can understand that. Otherwise, I will only bring a four-pounder cannon to try my hand, the four-pounder cannon is not heavy, it can be disassembled and mounted on the car, and it can even be carried by a person, and it will not slow down the march. Besides, my artillery has never been on the battlefield since it was formed, and a qualified artillery can only be trained in a real war. ”

He said eloquently: "Otherwise, I will draw the backbone and captains from several artillery teams to participate in this campaign, which can be regarded as training cadres."

。 ”

Sun Yuan's heart couldn't help but move, and he turned around and asked Fei Hong.

Fei Hong nodded: "Feasible." ”

Sun Yuan: "Okay, Pablo, I promise you to bring a four-pounder gun to the battlefield." Tomorrow morning, in the early hours of the morning, the task of opening a gap in the fortifications of the enemy's old camp will be handed over to you. ”

"Yes, my lord!" Pablo gracefully bowed, and ran out of the tent with joy, and went to prepare.

"The generals obey orders." Sun Yuan cleared his throat and began to assign tasks. (.marshmallow)

After receiving the military order, the officers of the Ningxiang Army, who had rested for more than a year and were almost rusty, ran out of the big tent one after another to prepare themselves.

By about three o'clock in the afternoon, the camp was full of cooking smoke, and the soldiers were ready and began to line up for dinner, just waiting for the order to leave.

Sun Yuan also packed his bags and sat in the tent to nourish his energy.

At this time, Yu Xiang came to report: "General Yu, Master Erhu and Jiaxian have come over." ”

"Wolf and Father Garcia are here, what do they want to do?" Sun Yuan vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as the two entered the tent, they immediately offered to attack with the army.

Sun Yuan was puzzled for a while, and first said to Wolf: "Sir Mrs. Wall, you proposed to go with the army, you must have known that Pablo's artillery was going to the front. Pablo was a mercenary, and going to war was his career. But you're just an arsenal owner, a businessman, and it seems that the war has nothing to do with you, so could it be that you also want to get commissions on the battlefield? ”

Wolf shook his head: "My lord, although I am not a soldier, my lord's army is equipped with weapons made in my factory. Whether it is a musket or a cannon, how well it performs on the battlefield and what are the deficiencies must be seen with your own eyes to understand and facilitate future improvements. Especially for the cannons, I still need to measure some data. ”

Sun Yuan: "Don't you measure a lot of data on weekdays, so you don't have to go this time." There are no eyes on the battlefield, and if I hurt you, I don't have a place to hire a good engineer like you. ”

"My lord, are you sarcastic that I'm afraid of death?" Wolf roared loudly, clenched his fists, and his face flushed

。

A talent like Wolf is too precious, how can it be put on the battlefield, Sun Yuan didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and handed his subordinates a look.

Several guards rushed up and surrounded him and went out of the tent.

In the distance, the sound of the erhu continued to come, and in the end it turned into a curse.

Sun Yuan couldn't help but shake his head, this German grandmother is really serious about doing things!

He looked at Garcia standing beside him angrily: "Father, you don't want to go to the battlefield too, do you?" Pablo went to war because he was a mercenary, Wolf was an arms dealer, and they were all justified! ”

Garcia nodded: "Brother Sun Yuan, you are right, I came to see you this time, I really want to follow your army to the battlefield and kill those Northeast barbarian heretics." ”

"Ah, you're here too?" Sun Yuan laughed angrily: "Priest, leave the matter of killing the barbarians to me." You're not a combatant, and it's useless to go to war. ”

"How is it useless, my brother Sun Yuan, you are also a Christian, have you forgotten. When a warrior is dying, he needs a priest to pray for them in order to enter heaven. ”

"Ahh Sun Yuan was taken aback, but he didn't expect that this priest would actually want to infiltrate his army. This aroused his vigilance, and he shook his head and said lightly: "No, Father, you can't go to the battlefield." ”

Garcia shouted: "Brother Sun Yuan, don't forget your promise before God back then, the promise you made before me. ”

Promise or something, but it only counts if it is for oneself, and it is not good for oneself, so forget it!

That's right, Sun Yuan promised Garcia to come to his territory to preach, and promised to build him a church.

However, it was based on the fact that he had a territory that was truly his own, and even then, Garcia's missionary methods would have to be transformed. Today's Bohai Institute is just a military fortress, except for soldiers and soldiers, Sun Yuan naturally does not want to see his subordinates become religious madmen.

Garcia shouted angrily, "Brother Sun Yuan, I doubt your belief in God

。 ”

Sun Yuan: "On the platform, don't I let you go to the battlefield, it's just not pious enough?" ”

"This battle is the time to let the pagans know the courage and strength of my Christians, is it true, Brother Sun Yuan, that you are also a pagan and want to cut yourself off from the Christian world?"

"Speaking of commitments, it's as if when I talked to you, Father Garcia, about missions, Father Garcia seemed to have promised me that I would not serve in the army." Sun Yuan was greatly displeased: "If you want to break the promise, it is the priest who does not keep the covenant first." Render to God what is God's, and to the king what is king's. The two can't be mixed together, otherwise, there will be no possibility of cooperation between you and me. ”

To tell the truth, this night raid was defeated in real history. What is the specific reason why Lu Xiangsheng did not win this game, Sun Yuan did not read carefully back then, and he can't remember it. People are not computers, and the protagonist in the crossing is no matter how big or small, and all the things that he remembers clearly are just family words.

After Sun Yuan came down, he also pondered for a long time, although Gao Qiqian divided six or seven percent of the troops, but at this moment, Lu Xiangsheng still had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the Tianxiong Army and the border army of Xuanda and the two towns were also considered to have some combat effectiveness. As long as the command is proper and the surprise is taken, it is not necessarily impossible to succeed. Moreover, now he has joined the new force of Ningxiang soldiers.

For his modern army, Sun Yuan is still very confident. I feel that this battle has to be fought.

But somehow, when he thought of the inertia of history, he felt a strong uneasiness in his heart.

The mood in the past two days was also very bad, seeing that Garcia was unrelenting and wanted to be a military priest, Sun Yuan was not polite: Okay, your Garcia, are you still threatening me with faith? Lao Tzu signed a contract with you back then, nothing more than seeing that you could help me find qualified artillery commanders and artillery casters. Now that I have Pablo and Erhu, what am I using you as a noisy crow?

Seeing that Sun Yuan said so resolutely, Garcia was like a slap in the head, and the anger in his heart was indescribable.

But after thinking about it, he really didn't have any way to take Sun Yuan.

After a long time, he said sullenly: "Brother Sun Yuan, in this battle, there will always be casualties in the troops, I am a qualified surgeon, it is my responsibility to save the life and help the wounded, and please take me to battle." ”

Sun Yuan took a breath: "That's the truth, why did I forget that you are a surgeon, a very clever surgeon?" ”
