Chapter 335: Five Elements Shengke, Hungry Tiger Out of the Cage

"This ......" Gu Zuo hesitated a little. He didn't feel sorry for how many soldiers and horses died in the border army and the Beijing camp, but if he raised the muzzle, it was possible to hit the cannonball into the military ordnance department, and then it would be the craftsman who died.

"Master Gu, you have to focus on the overall situation." Xu Jin said earnestly.

His expression was silent, but in his heart he was very contemptuous of Gu Zuo, who was already a third-grade official residence, but he was still like a businessman, and he only knew how to care about these small profits, didn't he understand the critical situation at this time? It's really a shame for the doctor.

"It's up to Liu Butang." Gu Zuo waved his hand weakly, no longer insisting on his opinion.

If you don't use this method, you can't attack it, and if you can't attack it, you won't have anything, and it's better to have some dead and wounded than not to get a craftsman. He thought about it, felt that it was not bad, and after taking advantage of the situation to put the responsibility on Liu Daxia, he simply stepped aside and watched.

"There is Liu Butang presiding over here, when it is foolproof, please Liu Butang take care of the overall situation, supervise the army to fight quickly, and the lower officials will retire first, and the two cabinet elders and colleagues are still waiting for the return of the lower officials." Another compromise was reached, Xu Jin didn't stay long, bowed to Liu Daxia, and then turned around and left.

After seeing these two arguments, he suddenly understood the feelings of Professor Lee, who was closed at home. Wenchen is a Wenchen after all, in terms of thinking, wisdom, and power, the court and China are all the choice of the moment, but it is precisely because they are all handsome, so it is not suitable to do this kind of big thing.

Because there are too many interests to be taken into account, every action needs to be discussed for a long time, and in the face of the opponent's unreasonable, but extremely swift movements, such decision-making efficiency is obviously not enough, and the result is that the enemy has the opportunity everywhere, and there is a huge amount of strength, but it is completely useless.

Could it be that this operation will end in a fiasco? Xu Jin flashed a startling thought in his mind, this thought was very unbelievable, and it could even be called a big rebellion, but it made his uneasiness more and more intense, he suddenly stopped and said to Wang Xiaoyu: "Little princess, you go and report to your lords, this official is going to the outer city to dispatch, in case of accidents." ”

With that, he turned away without looking back.

After seeing the two arguments between the ministers, Wang Xiaoyu was originally a little disheartened, thinking that the adults worshiped by the godfather were nothing more than that, but in Xu Jin, he still saw the bearing of the scholar. At this time, seeing that Xu Jin was not afraid of hardships and dangers to go out of the city to transfer troops, looking at Xu Jin's back, the little eunuch was even more moved to tears, Lord Xu called me the little prince, it's really ...... Really, huh? The little eunuch found out that something was wrong, Lord Xu, you walked quickly, but you seem to be walking in the wrong direction, right? The camp in Beijing is in Xicheng, why did you go south? Well, and a turn to the east...... Mother, Lord Xu, don't go back to the house, right?

The little eunuch has a fish in his name, and he is also a slippery master, seeing Xu Jin's direction of travel, where do you not know what the other party has in mind? went home and closed the door, even if the emperor and Xie Hong settled the score, they would not be the first to find him...... Fuck your doctor, I won't talk to you anymore! Wang Xiaoyu took off the eunuch uniform on his body, threw it into the corner, and then quickly disappeared into the night...... Godfather? When he was in power, he was a godfather, and seeing that death was coming, let's go our separate ways.

......, "Big brother, why did the outside suddenly stop, didn't these soft-footed shrimps be killed by us?" The crow crouched behind the battlements, and from time to time he looked out, and saw that except for the firecrackers and the shield array, the rest of the soldiers and horses of the regiment and battalion had retreated, and he couldn't help but lower his voice and laugh.

"Seems like some other calculation, right?" Jiang Bin was also watching the situation outside.

"Big brother, Mr. Li, when will the killer weapon they are preparing be used? We have all been suppressed by those turtle grandchildren of the Shenji Camp for half the night, if you don't hurry up and give them some color to see, they still don't know how thick the sky is. The crow turned to look into the courtyard and muttered again.

Because of the power of the firecracker, the city did not raise a fire, and compared to the bright lights of the governor's mansion, it looked extremely gloomy, at least in the eyes of the regimental sergeants outside.

However, the interior of the Ordnance Division was not dark, and beams of light flickered in the crowd from time to time, illuminating a few strange-looking water tank-like things clearly. This kind of lamp is not unusual, and it is found in every branch of Lichun Temple, called spotlights, which can prevent the bright light from leaking out, but can also allow people to see what they want to see clearly.

For Xie Hong's craftsmanship and ideas, the crow has already admired the five bodies to the ground, even if he can't understand the mystery of these vats, but he still believes that this thing can achieve the effect that Xie Hong said, that is, the firearms that specifically restrain the Shenji Battalion.

Since it was Lord Xie who said it, it would not be wrong, but his eldest brother was not in a hurry, he would rather be pressed by the enemy's fire and not raise his head than give an order, which made the crow anxious, why not use it if there is a killer weapon? Could it be that the big brother is thinking badly?

"It's not time yet, what are you anxious about?" Jiang Bin pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Although the method prepared by Brother Xie is good, only the first time is the best to use, if it is used too early, so that the enemy is on guard, the second time will not be so effective." It must be used, and it must be used, and it must be used, catch them by surprise, and then we will take advantage of the situation to kill them. ”

"Sure enough, you want to kill it?" The crow's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Then I ......"

"You take the archers to cover on the wall, and when so-and-so and the monks are killed, you take the place of so-and-so command, and by the way, cover for the brothers." Jiang Bin said confidently, although they were still suppressed at this time and couldn't raise their heads, just listening to what he said, it made people who didn't know think that he had the upper hand.

"It's the monk who picked up the ......bargain again," the crow said curtly, the monk has been in the limelight several times, which is really jealous.

"The time has come!" Jiang Bin suddenly shouted: "Crow, quick, let Mr. Li and them get ready, listen to the orders of so-and-so, and then you call a few brothers with good eyesight to aim things, first pack up the firecrackers, and then the ten cannons!" ”

"Okay." The crow was overjoyed, climbed down the parapet wall, and went to the courtyard to find Li Binghe and Tang Bohu to deliver a message.

...... "Liu Butang, the muzzle of the cannon has been adjusted, just waiting for your order." ”

"Well, tell them to light the fire and open fire, and the musketeers should not be idle, and when the artillery is over, fire a salvo immediately, and be sure to take advantage of the enemy's panic to measure and kill, and pave the way for the ensuing battle." Liu Daxia twisted his beard and smiled, as if there was already a scene in front of him screaming and running around.

As long as the muzzle of the cannon is raised and hit the wall, the border troops stationed there will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and even if they can't hit the wall, they can hit the inside of the Ordnance Division, killing and injuring non-military personnel, and shaking the opponent's military morale.

Liu Daxia is not Gu Zuo, he won't take care of craftsmen or anything, what he wants is to vent his anger and hatred! Damn these vulgar people who dare to act as minions and offend the scholars, let them see their anger today!

"Ignition ......" General Meng turned around and gave the order, the gunners put down their torches, and were about to go to the fire gate, but suddenly heard an order from the Ordnance Division:

"Release!"

Water? All the sergeants were stunned by this inexplicable order, and they were going to put out the fire? It's early, we haven't fired yet, are the people in the city scared stupid?

Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw a sudden flash of light at the head of the city, and columns of water, like silver dragons, reflected the light of the stars and moons, and sprayed straight out from the inside of the Ordnance Division. This scenery is extremely magnificent, but the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion and Liu Daxia were stunned for a moment, and then they were shocked.

What is the most feared thing about the Shenji Battalion? Undoubtedly, afraid of rain. Other difficulties can be overcome, only when it rains, the Shenji Battalion is completely dumb.

Not to mention the firearms of this era, even after one or two hundred years, the firearms troops did not have a curse on a rainy day. In the heavy rain, those firearms units in Europe, with large-brimmed hats, ammunition packs and other fire prevention measures, can only ensure a few percent of the firing rate, and it is absolutely impossible to do the same as a sunny day.

Supposedly, since you are afraid of this, you will definitely take precautions. However, whether it is the firecrackers of the Shenji Battalion or the artillery at the back, they are all dozens of steps away from the Ordnance Division, even if the Ordnance Division takes out the water hose to fight the fire, it is impossible to spray it so far?

The impossible thing happened, and the water jet that sprayed out of the Ordnance Division didn't know what was strange, not only sprayed the fire gunners, but also the water hit the body with full force, it was like the water of the waterfall suddenly hit horizontally, and then splashed out, and the person who was sprayed from the front couldn't even open his eyes for a while.

The suffering of the people in the front row passed quickly, because the water column only stopped for a moment in the front row and began to extend backwards, and the target was obviously the ten general guns in the back!

The gunners of the Shenji Battalion reacted quickly, some hurriedly lit the fire, and some wanted to take off their robes to protect the gun, but their efforts were in vain.

By this time, several columns of water were already at the end of the crossbows, so they had already sputtered in the air, but despite the lack of strength, it still seemed like a heavy rain was falling near the artillery array. The powder box placed on the side, the cannon itself, even the torches held by the gunners were extinguished, and the ground beneath their feet became muddy...... Shelling? That's absolutely impossible.

The cannon was solved, and the water column turned again, strafing in the array of firecrackers, these people were already standing closely, not to mention that they were too shocked, they didn't react at all for a while, therefore, they all turned into soup chickens under the strafing of the water dragon, and the firecrackers naturally followed in the footsteps of the generals' artillery.

"This is ......" Liu Daxia looked at the high wall of the Ordnance Division in amazement as if he had seen a ghost, and looked at the raging water dragons...... What the hell isn't that? How is it possible for water to spray so far? From the Ordnance Department all the way to the former Military Governor's Mansion? What kind of water the hell is this!

"......" Xiao Nuo and Meng Xu were also dumbfounded, they didn't know what tricks the enemy was doing, but they knew one thing, that is, their biggest reliance, the Shenji Battalion, had been completely crippled, and unless materials and equipment were mobilized from outside, it was already an impossible task to attack the city.

...... "Hahaha, these idiots, don't you know the five elements of Shengke?" Water overcomes fire! This is the killer weapon that Brother Xie is preparing to deal with you, what is it called? After squatting for half a night, Jiang Bin was finally able to straighten up, looking at the thousands of soup chickens outside, he was in a great mood, and couldn't help laughing.

"This is called a high-pressure water gun, and it applies the principle of pressure...... Tang Bohu's surname is much better than Jiang Bin, and he introduced it in detail: "The big water tank over there is a pressurization facility, and then ......"

"Okay, okay, no matter what principle he has, in short, the Shenji Camp is dumb, and now it's time for us to play......" Jiang Bin didn't understand these principles, and he wasn't interested in listening to them, what he wanted was a result, he waved his hand in high spirits, and shouted: "Brothers, open the door, let's kill it!" ”

"Oh!" In response, the door of the Ordnance Division opened, first a big bald head flashed, and then a group of wolf-like fans rushed out.

"Crow, Tang Dacai, I'll leave it to you here, I'm going to kill it too!" Jiang Bin bit the war knife in his mouth, supported the wall with his hand, and jumped down.

The hungry tiger has been released, and the murderous atmosphere is full of long streets!
