Chapter 36 Boldness, Yu Jin Innovation

However, it was said that Huang Degong personally led a thousand sergeants of the Tiger Wei Corps to rush overnight, and after a moment of rest, Huang Degong also made a general understanding of the situation here.

"More than a dozen people fought against more than a hundred people, but it is a great wonder in the world! Lord Qu, he is really handsome! ”

And for this war that happened not long ago, Huang Degong couldn't help but praise. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hearing this, Qu Shiyun smiled and said.

"It is an honor for Qu to be praised by an imperial general like General Huang, but it is all up to Lord Wei and his brothers to work hard here!"

"Master Qu, be humble, be humble!"

The words of the two of them were not detailed and repeated, and Qu Shiyun had already explained all the enemy situation to Huang Degong.

Hearing this, Huang Degong frowned slightly, but after a while, he gave up.

"Don't worry, Lord Qu, such a chaotic soldier, Huang will definitely take it down! It's just that there is one thing that bothers Lord Wei. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Degong turned his gaze to Wei Dalong on the side.

Wei Dalong is also a person, that is the emperor's 'iron and blood' team, specializing in intelligence and investigation, although Huang Degong did not speak directly, how could this Wei Dalong not know.

"Whatever General Huang said, we are just serving His Majesty, how can there be the word "trouble"! General Huang rest assured, early in the morning, Wei had already sent his brothers to investigate, and it didn't take a moment to find out the enemy's situation! ”

"Haha! Lord Wei is worthy of being a strange soldier under His Majesty's account! ”

Hearing this, Huang Degong laughed and said.

Sure enough, within a moment of incense, the sentry outside the village came to report, and three horsemen came to the dust, but it was the greedy wolf, seven killings, and broken army sent by Wei Dalong that morning!

"Your Excellency!"

What is the situation? Let's talk to you about it! ”

"Yes, I would like to return to my lords, my subordinates have found out that a group of rebels here are stationed on a hill not far from the county seat, although this mountain is not high, but the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the rebels have a strong crossbow on a necessary road out of the mountain, if it is attacked, I am afraid of losses!"

For the scout's report, the three of them frowned slightly.

"You're saying there's only one way into the mountains?"

Qu Shiyun was a little puzzled.

"Hui Yu, my subordinates have found out, it is true, this is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one side is adjacent to water, and only a path can be walked together."

Regarding this, Qu Shiyun was silent again.

"If you attack forcibly, you will have losses, but you are surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, but it is."

Thinking of this, Qu Shiyun shook his head unconsciously.

At this moment, Huang Degong said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Lord Qu, since the scout reported that this mountain is not high, in Huang's view, there must be a way to crack it!"

Hearing this, Qu Shiyun's eyes lit up.

"General Huang, please come quickly!"

"Come on, get the drawings!"

After receiving the drawings handed over by the soldiers, Huang Degong quickly presented a simple map on paper with the help of the scout report just now.

"Lord Qu, you see, this place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, one side is facing water, and there is only one path leading to the mountain, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack, and similarly, for the rebels, they are not so easy to enter and exit from this mountain at will, even so, if we hold this road to the mountain trail with the strength of three companies, and garrison this waterfront side with the strength of three companies, and the opposite side is where the camp of the enemy is stationed, and then bombard it with heavy artillery, the rebels will be chaotic here! And before the rebels are stationed here, the battalion will definitely go to the rescue, and our army can take the opportunity to attack this mountain fortress! ”

Hearing Huang Degong's words, Qu Shiyun nodded slightly.

"General Huang's words are very true, but although this mountain is not too high, but the surrounding water side is also a dangerous terrain, according to Qu Mou, if it is not for the red-clothed cannon, it cannot form an effective attack, and if Qu Mou is expected to be good, General Huang did not carry this thing on this trip."

Regarding Qu Shiyun's worries, Huang Degong said with a smile.

"Lord Qu, what you said is true, Huang has not carried the red-clothed cannon on this trip, first, this cannon is too heavy, if you carry it all the way, it will be a delay, and secondly, this thing is a weapon of the country, even my Huwei army only has five red-clothed cannons, but Lord Qu rest assured, although Huang has not carried a red-coated cannon on this trip, but there is one thing that is enough!"

After speaking, Huang Degong pushed an object through a substitution, but it was a brass forged short-bore cannon.

"Lord Qu, this thing is the latest design of the Royal Arsenal of artillery, because it resembles a mortar, but it is called a mortar cannon, although this thing is not as long as the range of the red-coat cannon, but it is also stronger than the Furlong cannon, and the Furlong machine is mostly used for battleship robes, this angle is far less than such a mortar cannon, more importantly, this thing is lightweight, easy to carry, and the muzzle is large, and the cannonball is even more powerful!"

Hearing this, Qu Shiyun was overjoyed.

"In that case, then I'll take action immediately!"

And at this moment, Wei Dalong on the side asked.

"Lord Qu, can you inform the prefect here?"

Regarding Wei Dalong's words, Qu Shiyun shook his head unconsciously.

"There are rebels stationed here, and the prefect here is actually ignoring it, in the opinion of this official, it is better not to be alarmed!"

......

However, it is said that the elite soldiers of the 1,000 Tiger Wei Army have been drawn under the leadership of Huang Degong, but in a short time, they have reached the place where the rebels are stationed less than three miles from the hill.

And at this moment, through the telescope, Qu Shiyun had to sigh that it was really a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack!

"Up!"

And with Huang Degong's order, there were already dozens of athletes in his army with sharp blades in their mouths, crawling forward, because at the foot of this mountain there was a temporary outpost set up by the rebels!

It's just that in this checkpoint, except for a sergeant patrolling back and forth, the rest of the people are obviously still dozing.

Just when the athletes were ready, as the flag of the army was waved down, it was too late, it was fast, but the tiger soldiers who jumped up were the rebels patrolling back and forth with a knife, and the remaining few people saw the king of Hades in their sleep.

Seeing that the outpost was successful, Huang Degong immediately ordered to quickly seize the outpost, use the burlap bag carried by the sergeant to dig up the soil on the spot, and build a circular defense belt.

And these are all learned by the Tiger Army from the Dragon and Tiger Corps, as for the Dragon and Tiger Legion, all its training rules and regulations, as well as new training methods, naturally all come from Zhu Jian.

Because everyone in this Huwei army carried a new type of sapper shovel made by the arsenal, and in a short time, a defensive zone about 100 meters long and half a meter high had been constructed.

At the same time, on the other side, the artillery fortifications built by three companies were also built, and all five new mortars were in place!

And when Huang Degong was sure that everything was in order, with the wave of the flag, for a while, five mortar cannons fired at the rebel garrison on the high ground opposite the mountain stream, but the scene was a bit earth-shattering!

At this moment, in the rebel tent, Wu Liuyi, who is the leader of the rebels, is still sleeping soundly on the tiger skin chair with a young woman in his arms.

The sudden cannon fire almost made him roll off the big chair.

"Where**, where**!"

Faced with a roar, Wu Liuyi didn't have time to get dressed, so he jumped out of bed and shouted loudly.

"Lord Huiyu, it's Yamashita...... Guns from the bottom of the mountain! ”

Faced with the roar, the little soldier was obviously a little panicked.

"Useless stuff!"

Seeing the little soldier's panicked appearance, Wu Liuyi kicked it violently, and the little soldier stumbled.

"Get down!"

"The cannon under the mountain? Could it be that the official army failed to shoot artillery? But I agreed with Nazhi County that it was impossible for the officials and soldiers to discover it here! ”

This Wu Liuyi did the thousands of households waved by the general army of Yansui, and the three sides reinforced the Beijing division on the same day, because the general soldier Wu Ziluan embezzled the soldiers' salaries, which caused a mutiny, and Wu Liuyi broke away from the official army system and became a rebel.

And naturally, he is very clear about some situations in this official army.

"Listening to the sound of this cannon, I'm afraid that dozens of Furlong machines can't make such a sound, is it possible to say that the Henan General Army himself led the army to encircle and suppress it?"
