Looking at the black iron bullets and rockets tied to the cartridges in front of him, Gao Huaiyuan felt a little dizzy, for this kind of thing, he had more than eight hundred years of knowledge, but he didn't expect that in this era, he really saw this primitive gunpowder weapon.

These iron bullets are hollow iron balls made of pig iron, which are cast with two halves of iron balls together, leaving a hole in the iron ball, stuffed with a wooden stopper, and a lead inserted in it, which looks very rough, more like a large thunderbolt, but it is undeniable that this kind of thing has considerable explosive power, and it can be said that it is the most advanced weapon in the Song Dynasty.

And those rockets, apparently, have been detached from the role of ignition by gunpowder alone, but have the function of using gunpowder propulsion of purebred rockets, which can make the arrows fly farther under the impetus of gunpowder, which can not only kill and injure the enemy, but also play a certain role in ignition.

A day after leaving the Xiangyang camp, the baggage camp set up camp at night, Gao Huaiyuan couldn't wait to find these things, put them in his hands and play with them, and tried to search for the memories in his mind, recalling the knowledge about gunpowder.

The invention of gunpowder in Chinese history should be the Tang Dynasty, and it has been applied to the military at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but when using gunpowder, it basically focuses on its arson flammability performance, and does not pay too much attention to explosiveness, but the Song Dynasty because the state system is relatively relaxed, the development of folk science and technology shows an explosive development state, if it were not for the rise of the Mongols to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty is very likely to be the first in history to enter the capitalist society, The economy of the Song Dynasty can be said to be the most glorious era in Chinese history, if it were not for the Song Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light on military force and the weakening of military power due to the system of suppressing military force with literature, and the emperors after the Southern Song Dynasty were relatively mediocre, with the scientific and technological productivity of the Song Dynasty, it would never have been easily destroyed by the Mongolian barbarians.

After the gunpowder arrived in the Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty lacked war horses, and the army's combat effectiveness was not strong, so it attached great importance to the research and development of weapons, a large number of crossbows and those powerful bed crossbows can be seen, and gunpowder was even more important, so when the Northern Song Dynasty was at the end of the year, the ordnance supervisor of the imperial court set up a workshop for the production of gunpowder and gunpowder weapons, and the output was quite small.

And the performance of gunpowder is gradually recognized, from the simple arson weapon began to develop towards explosive weapons, during the Jingkang period, when Li Gang guarded Bianliang, he used a thunderbolt, that is, the use of gunpowder explosiveness to repel the Jin army, Han Shizhong in Zhenjiang intercepted the Jin Wushu army when it was a large number of similar weapons, to deal with the Jin army, even Zhang Jun also used this kind of thing, defeated the Jin army, it can be seen that the Song Dynasty has begun to gradually use gunpowder as a weapon into the battlefield.

However, this kind of thunderbolt cannon and earth-shaking thunder called by the Song people are not cannons of later generations, to put it bluntly, they are just a kind of bomb, which must be thrown by throwing carts or manpower, and most of the time they are used as imperial guards.

Gao Huaiyuan is familiar with these things, and now he is very concerned about the power of these things in his hands, and whether they can fully exert the explosiveness of gunpowder.

So after he saw these thunderbolts, poison smoke balls, and rockets, he ordered Huang Yan to bring a few of each, and then went out of the camp to find a piece of dirt behind a dirt slope where no one was around, and decided to try these contemporary "high-tech" weapons.

"Boss, what the hell is this! I think you're interested in these weird things, huh? Huang Yan hugged a bunch of things and asked as he walked with Gao Huaiyuan.

"Oh! These things are all weapons that have just been transferred from the Xiangyang camp to Lord Meng in front this time, I want to see if they are powerful or not! Listen to me for a while, don't hurt yourself! You guys be careful, take your torches out of the way, be careful to detonate this thing, and we'll all be out of luck!" Gao Huaiyuan replied while loudly scolding Zhou Jun who was holding a torch, because he couldn't see these things in Huang Yan's hand clearly, and stretched out the torch to illuminate it, wanting to see it more clearly, which scared Gao Huaiyuan into a daze.

Zhou Jun was so frightened by Gao Huaiyuan that he jumped out and didn't dare to approach Huang Yan anymore, Gao Huaiyuan said to them: "These things are filled with gunpowder, and they will explode when they catch fire, if you don't want to die, don't let them touch the fire, otherwise, everyone will be unlucky together, and you won't be able to survive!" You'll remember it for me in the future! It's not a joke, but it's a matter of human life! ”

Everyone saw that Gao Huaiyuan was very serious, so they hurriedly nodded and agreed, and they didn't dare to be careless anymore!

With the ignition of a rocket, and after being launched, there was a flash of fire in the air, which really increased the range of the bow and arrow a lot, and when it was used in large numbers on the battlefield, it could indeed have a surprise effect.

But the iron-clad thunderbolt is not very flattering, there was an explosion after ignition, but the sound was a little dull, after the explosion, Gao Huaiyuan ran over to take a look, and the result was a big disappointment, because this iron thunderbolt was only blown in half, and it flew out not far before it landed, obviously the lethality is very small, it is a weapon, but at most it is just to scare people, so he was unwilling, and immediately lit another one, and the result was still about the same, so he could be sure, At present, there is still a considerable lack of gunpowder in terms of proportion and purity of raw materials.

You must know that he was a policeman in his previous life, and he had to deal with explosives, and such a powerful bomb would not fall into his eyes at all.

But even so, Huang Yan and the others were so shocked that they covered their ears and were a little stunned, which shows that this kind of thunderbolt can still give a great shock to people who see this kind of thing for the first time.

As for those few poison smoke balls, it is obviously a lot of trouble to set off, this kind of thing is said to be filled with saltpeter, sulfur, *, croton and other things, and the outside is pasted with waste paper and asphalt mixture, and the red-hot iron cone must be poked into it to smolder, so that it can burn and smoke, what is the power, Gao Huaiyuan is not interested in trying it with his nose, so he will give up after reading it.

However, seeing this kind of thing this time still made Gao Huaiyuan excited, after all, it is not easy to see this kind of weapon that is close to modernity, so he also firmly wants to make some more powerful weapons, at least his self-protection ability will be strengthened a lot.

In his memory, it seems that the era of being in charge of weapons has probably appeared, but Gao Huaiyuan can't remember exactly when it appeared, so he began to wonder if he could find a way to promote the development of this weapon, but now on the battlefield, this idea can only stay in his mind, if he really wants to put it into practice, I'm afraid he will have to wait until he returns to Crouching Tiger Village in Daye County.

This time the delivery of materials was obviously much smoother than the previous times, and there was no danger along the way, so he arrived at the Song army camp in Zaoyang County, otherwise, Gao Huaiyuan really wanted to find a monk to calculate the fortune for himself, and see if he had something to take care of!

Judging from the materials transported this time, the Song army was already ready to completely repel the Jin army, otherwise, even this "high-tech" weapon would not have been transported to the former enemy in large quantities, so as soon as Gao Huaiyuan's baggage battalion arrived at the camp, Meng Zongzheng immediately raised his tent and began to arrange it.

As a baggage battalion, Gao Huaiyuan had just arrived at the camp, in order to take care of them, Meng Zongzheng did not let Gao Huaiyuan's baggage battalion participate in the battle, but just let them stay in the camp, and then ordered troops out of the camp to find the bad luck of the Jin army.

Gao Huaiyuan naturally wouldn't honestly stay in the camp to watch his family, this kind of decisive battle scene is rare, so he still found Meng Hui, and brought some of his teenagers to follow Meng Heng to fight, Meng Hui also admired Gao Huaiyuan's eagerness to fight, so he took them out of the camp together.

And this time, the Jin army didn't seem to plan to fight to the death with the Song army, so after the Song army scolded and fought for a long time, he didn't go out of the camp to fight, and shrank in the camp and ignored the challenge of the Song army.

However, Meng Zongzheng was now determined, and when he saw that the Jin army was unwilling to fight, he waved his army to the Jin army camp, and dragged a lot of heavy weapons such as bed crossbows and throwing carts in the army, and made a posture of storming the Jin army camp.

Gao Huaiyuan accompanied Meng Hui to stay in the left wing army, serving as a reserve ready to attack the Jin army camp at any time, but failed to catch up with the frontal attack.

With the sound of war drums, a team of crossbowmen crossed the pikemen to the front of the formation, a throwing car and bed crossbow were placed in front of the Song army to face the camp of the Jin army, when the drum suddenly accelerated the drum beat, those who operated the throwing car and bed crossbow The Song army immediately roared and struggled to pull the rope of the throwing car, and smashed the boulder into the camp of the Jin army, and the bed crossbow was also fired instantly, and the hammer arrow roared and fired suddenly, and crashed into the fence of the Jin army camp.

The Jin army has also been waiting for the day, in the camp to prepare for the enemy, the outside of the wall is covered with the horse and deer and other things, the archers are already prepared arrows, hiding behind the wall of the camp, ready to resist the enemy, with the Song army after the fire, the Jin army camp immediately shouted to kill the sound of the sky, the artillery and arrows staggered, bloomed in the two armies, stirred up pieces of blood.

After all, the wall of the camp is not a strong city wall, although it can prevent arrows, but it can not resist the bombardment of the boulder, in a short time, several walls were smashed and collapsed by the boulders thrown by the Song army's throwing car, and even the golden soldiers who were hiding behind the wall were also pressed under the wall, and the miserable howl sounded into a piece.

The archers of the Song army continued to suppress the archers of the Jin army with a dense rain of arrows, especially in front of the bed crossbow, it can almost be said that no one can resist it, and it is often swept away.

With the rejecting horse deer fence set up outside the camp was opened after several gaps, the Jin army obviously realized that it was not a way to go on like this, so they sent a cavalry, suddenly opened the camp gate, and rushed out of the camp with horses, trying to assault the Song army's large array and disrupt the Song army's attack, but for this situation, Meng Zongzheng had obviously expected it before the war, so as soon as the Jin army was dispatched, there was a horn sound from the Song army.

Those throwing carts were immediately replaced with thunderbolt cannons sent by Gao Huaiyuan from the Xiangyang camp this time, and after the fuse was lit by the soldiers in charge, they threw it with all their might, and flew towards the Jin army cavalry that was pouring out of the Jin army camp.

Immediately, the archers also lit the rockets allocated to them with velvet, and at the same time turned their crossbows and fired fiercely at the cavalry of the Golden Army, and immediately countless traces of smoke began to be pulled out of the sky, and the whistling sound of rockets was filled everywhere, and then the thunderbolts that fell in the cavalry of the Golden Army began to roar.

The huge explosion immediately disrupted the cavalry formation of the Jin army, and after the war horse was frightened, it immediately rushed around, and the cavalry of the Jin army, Lima, was in chaos, and the rockets that hit the head and covered the face, which immediately caused them heavy casualties, and they were not able to rush into the Song army's large array at all, and they were completely confused.

"Damn! The Song army actually got a thunderbolt! Wanyan Sai, who was commanding the imperial guard in the camp, heard these explosions, and immediately lost his voice and screamed, as a general of the Jin Kingdom who had fought with the Song army many times, Wanyan Sai must have suffered losses under the thunderbolt cannon of the Song army more than once, so as soon as he heard this explosion, he immediately trembled.

"It seems that Song Jun is determined to fight with us this time, or let's retreat to Xinyang to rest first! After the coming year, it will not be too late for us to regroup our troops and horses and take Xiangyang again! His lieutenant couldn't help but worry at this time, and once again made a suggestion to Wanyan Sai to withdraw from the army.

Seeing that the Song army was attacking sharply outside the camp, Wan Yansai nodded helplessly, he also knew that there was no need to continue to spend here, and it would only increase casualties in vain, which would make the morale of his army drop even more, so he agreed to his subordinates' proposal and began to arrange the withdrawal of the army.

After the Song army defeated the counterattack of the Jin army, Meng Zongzheng immediately urged the generals to launch a fierce attack towards the gap in the Jin camp, and Gao Huaiyuan's left army of Meng Heng also received an order at this time and began to act collectively under Meng Hui's pressure, lined up a dense arrow-shaped array, and rushed towards the Jin camp.

Because Gao Huaiyuan didn't take his baggage camp, he took Huang Yan and a group of young people under him to act as Meng Hui's personal guard, and rushed to the Jin army camp with the left army.

Although the Song army grasped the initiative on the battlefield, but did not be able to completely defeat the will of the Jin army, the two armies still launched a fierce battle in front of the wall, a large number of Jin troops blocked the route of the Song army's attack, the Song army crashed into the defensive line of the Jin army, at this time the Song army's long-range firepower can not continue to play an advantage, can only count on the attacking soldiers to tear through the Jin army's defense line with their bodies.

Therefore, the battle immediately reached a white-hot level, after the hand-to-hand combat, the battlefield was filled with the sound of weapons intersecting, shouting and killing mixed with the screams of dying people, and the people who went into battle for the first time were terrified, but at this time, even if someone was timid, there was no way to escape from the battlefield, because many soldiers were crowded together, and they had no room for maneuver except to choose to kill the opponent or be killed by the opponent.

The pikeman struggled to stab the spear in his hand at the enemy in front of him, but he was immediately poked to the ground by the spear stabbed by the opposite side, and the shield bearer raised the shield on his left arm, constantly resisting the weapons that were slashed or stabbed from the opposite side, while roaring wildly and poking out the short knife or pike spear in his hand, and fighting the opponent until he was also killed in front of the battle.

The smoking thunderbolts or earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown over the heads of the Song army and thrown into the Jin camp, and the continuous explosions greatly damaged the morale of the Jin army, which was already not high morale, and gradually began to be unable to support the onslaught of the Song army, and the front was loosened.

Meng Heng immediately realized the abnormality of the Jin army in the army, so he immediately shouted: "All forward, those who retreat will not be killed!" ”

After calling out, Meng Heng led the troops to kill the Jin army that was gradually retreating, and Gao Huaiyuan beside him had to sigh bravely, and then took Huang Yan and others to protect Meng Heng, forming a sharp knife, which was fiercely inserted into the Jin army's line.

The brave behavior of Meng Hui and Gao Huaiyuan immediately aroused the morale of the soldiers under Meng Hui, and the morale of the Song army was greatly increased, and the whole army followed closely and pressed against the Jin army.

The snowy Liuyun scimitar flickered continuously, and every time it was swayed out, it brought out a puddle of blood, and in the chaos of the army, Meng Heng happily waved the Liuyun scimitar given by Gao Huaiyuan in his hand, and realized the power of each knife, when he used this Liuyun scimitar, he felt that his martial arts could at least play two more percent, and the enemy's inferior war knife encountered his knife, which was often cut off in two, and few people could bargain for a little bit under the knife in his hand.

The main reason why Meng Heng felt so happy was that Gao Huaiyuan was by his side at this time, a glaive knife danced like a wheel, taking the masculine road and opening and closing and chopping and slashing, using all his strength, killing the golden soldiers around him, firmly protecting Meng Hui's side, often encountering strong opponents, Gao Huaiyuan took out the knife in advance, and cut the golden soldiers to the ground, saving Meng Heng a lot of trouble.

Like a sharp blade, these people cut straight into the Jin army, and broke into the Jin soldier camp with many Song army soldiers behind them......
