Chapter 15: A Minefield Emerges

The news of Ma Xianglin's arrest was reported three days later by the remnants of the White Pole Soldiers to Qin Liangyu.

Qin Liangyu is now sixty years old, and he has only such a son left under his knees, and now when he heard that he was captured by the puppet Qin, he immediately fainted. used to be a female general who fought on the battlefield for a long time and killed countless enemy soldiers without blinking an eye, and she couldn't accept the bad news of her own son.

was finally rescued by the doctor and woke up, and the whole person seemed to be more than ten years old and became a real old woman.

It is gratifying that Ma Xianglin was only escorted to Chang'an, and there was no news that he was directly killed, which made her feel a little comforted. But she also knew that Ma Xianglin was a person who swore to die, and if his language in Chang'an was sharper, he would still be in danger of killing if he made Zhang Hongbin, the pseudo-king of Qin and Qin, unhappy.

Therefore, to ensure that there will be no danger to his son, either Qin Liangyu will take the initiative to join the Qin State...... Of course, that is absolutely impossible, if she does that, then she is not Qin Liangyu. In this way, the only way is to find a way to capture a heavy general of the Qin army, in exchange for his own son.

But the remnants of the soldiers who fled back have already said that the firearms of the Qin army are extremely sharp, and they are very terrifying not only in rapid-fire but also in bursts. Yes, it's not the kind of firearm they know it to be, it's the real weapon of mass destruction. In the words of the remnants, in front of those big killing weapons, even if there are 300,000 people, it may not be enough for the other party to kill.

Qin Liangyu is not a person who loses his mind for the sake of his son, and then carefully examined the scene, although the bullet casings have been taken away, the one-sided battlefield status quo has remained. Qin Liangyu knew very well that his son had almost no room for resistance, and he was defeated by the other party.

A large number of advanced firearms have been put into use, and have they really become the combat mode of the new era?

Qin Liangyu was also confused, but he didn't want to get the news, Chengdu had fallen, and it was only a day before and after.

"What is the specific, why did Chengdu fall in less than a day?" Qin Liangyu couldn't believe this battle report.

"Report to the general, the range of the opponent's artillery is even farther than that of the Hongyi cannon, and our artillery is completely unable to harm the opponent. At the same time, the opponent uses flowering shells, and the interval between shells is very short, and an average of one shot can be fired every four breaths. Their twenty cannons continued to fire, and the city gate and the city walls were completely blown down in less than half a day. Our defenders killed them without the cover of the city wall, but the opponent's firearms were too terrible to give us a chance to get closer, and the three thousand defenders were all shot and killed in a few shots, and Chengdu fell. The soldier who came to report the news said with a sad face.

"Damn, isn't there anything that can cure this group of Qin troops?" Qin Liangyu had a big headache.

If you want to fight on the battlefield, she is not afraid, she can't take the head of the general in a million army, but she can still do it with a hundred people rushing into the thousands of troops to fight. The white pole soldiers she survived were not only good at mountain warfare, but also first-class elite in plain warfare.

However, no matter how elite the soldiers, they are all flesh and blood. Like a crossbow arrow, even a three-year-old child can shoot a famous general.

It is unfair to say, but no one can change the trend of firearms occupying an increasingly important position in future wars. Even Qin Liangyu could see that in the future, personal bravery would be infinitely weakened, even negligible. The commander's command has become the top priority, in other words, the literati TMD can also become a famous general through the ages. In this way, there is no market for them, pure martial artists who practice martial arts hard.

Thinking hard and meditating, Qin Liangyu couldn't think of any way by herself, and she suddenly remembered Qi Jiguang for some reason, and when she thought of Qi Jiguang, she unconsciously took out a few of his works and looked at them, and finally found a special firearm for her in "Wubei Xinzhi".

Well, even the pseudo-Qin doesn't know about firearms!

Qin Liangyu smiled, she knew that she had found a way to deal with Qin Jun.

At the same time, in the barracks of the Qin army, all the regiment commanders and brigade commanders were gathered together, and Li Dingguo, along with several other generals, criticized them by name.

"How many times have I stressed it? Unless it is an emergency, when you are attacking a city, you must calculate the amount of bullets! Our firearms are good, but the use of shells and bullets is too high, and the speed of production of bullets is not very optimistic, which means that our ability to continue the war is limited.

Therefore, when you enter Sichuan, you have to fight, and I will not talk about a few shots fired on a small scale, or a small shooting, but I will familiarize you with the application of weapons in actual battles. But if you look at the last two times, the first one against the ambush, how many bullets did you Lang take? With a force of 5,000 men, you fired 50,000 rounds of ammunition, in other words, every 10 rounds of ammunition can destroy an enemy army?

This time, in the attack on Chengdu, one-third of the total number of shells was directly fired, and more than 30,000 rounds of bullets were consumed. Didn't you think that you only need to open a crack to attack the city, and you can kill it? There are still ten bullets to harvest the efficiency of one human life, are you ashamed of it? "Yang Hong, who used to be a recruit instructor, is really hot at the moment.

Such a hit rate, it's embarrassing to say that elite, other people's elite is one bullet and one life, these bastard things, ten bullets can harvest one life. When it was passed out, it was strange that the officers who stayed behind didn't laugh themselves to death.

Besides, if the bullets and shells are gone, what will happen to the follow-up operations? Do you just take a firearm without bullets and fight with others? Bullets may be delivered, but who knows what will happen during the delivery process. Especially in this operation, the amount of artillery shells has even been budgeted, and where and where it can be used has been estimated, and it has risen by 20%, in other words, the amount that should have been used in theory has increased by more than 40%, and the ammunition should have been abundant, enough to shoot down the whole of Chengdu. No matter how bad it is, it can also support the second batch of bullets.

But look at it, it took a third of the shells to hit Chengdu today, which directly reached 200% of the theoretical consumption.

Forget it, Yang Hong doesn't want to say anything anymore, how to reflect, how to review and how to correct, that's the next thing. If he, the commander-in-chief, has to do everything himself, then what do you want them to do? What else do you want to do in a military school?

"Every brigade commander and regiment commander must write a review when he goes back, and he must read it out to everyone in public. If such a situation occurs again in the future, I will report it to the military department for execution, and then it will affect your promotion, and if you are strict, you will be warned, demoted, and returned to school. The strictest is expulsion from the military. Yang Hong looked at the officers below with their heads bowed and gave the final decision.

At this moment, the officers, who were already bitter gourd-faced, were really depressed.

"Let me add......" Li Dingguo walked up, "I don't deny it, the new guns and artillery are very cool to fight, as long as the trigger is pulled, ten bullets will be fired directly like this, plus the battlefield is so chaotic, who will notice whether their bullets hit the other party?" ”

Li Dingguo looked down and saw that the officers below had lowered their heads.

"Your Highness said that Lang Fei is shameful, it takes ten bullets to kill an enemy soldier, and we are embarrassed to say that we are the elite when it is passed out? When you were at the training ground, where did you go, where did you go in terms of the combat power that you were able to knock out a moving target with every bullet? I don't want to be too demanding, you have to take an enemy in two bullets! Remember, you are soldiers, and you are a whole fighting collectively. Cooperate with each other, cover each other, help each other, can't this be done? Sue me, can you do it? Li Dingguo continued.

"It can be done!" There's not much to say at this time.

"Review, keep doing it, don't have a next time for such a thing. Otherwise, it is not only irresponsible to the military department, but also irresponsible to Daqin and His Majesty. Remember, you are a strong army in a hundred battles, the elite troops of my Great Qin! Li Dingguo raised his arms and shouted.

The rest of the matter is simple, rest in Chengdu for two days, and continue south.

They didn't expect that on the way they had to go south, Qin Liangyu had prepared a secret weapon and was waiting for them to come to the door.

Along the way, it was still scouts who explored the way, and military dogs assisted. With the help of military dogs, all ambushes were hidden, but Qin Liangyu didn't seem to intend to ambush, so they were calm and quiet along the way. That's actually pretty good, at least you don't have to go into battle all of a sudden, which feels really bad.

"You say, is the other party afraid of us?" On the way, Hao Shaoqi asked Yuan Zongdi beside him.

"How do I know, you must know that Qin Liangyu's main force of 50,000 people doesn't seem to have been dispatched yet." Yuan Zongdi will not take it lightly.

"Hiss......" There was a soft sound of unknown sound in the jungle.

But maybe the sound was too soft, so no one noticed. But the faint glow of the fire, and the smell of gunpowder, more or less attracted the attention of the military dogs, and they quickly came to one of the burning points.

The scout was also very curious about what this was, so he simply pulled it and found that it was actually a lead, which was like a firecracker.

He was also very curious about where the lead leads, so he immediately pulled it up, and in a short time it was under the avenue, and pulled out a spherical object. At that moment, he was startled, after all, he had seen the real thing, it was something called a mine that Zhang Hongbin said earlier at the lecture on popularizing military knowledge.

After knowing what this thing was, he broke out in a cold sweat and calmed down, but he heard more "hissing" sounds.

"Damn it!" The scouts immediately mounted their horses and ran towards the main position.

But he didn't want to just come to the vicinity of the main position, and the ground suddenly burst into flames, and he lost consciousness.

At the same time, a large number of flames burst out in the entire Qin army's position, and a large number of iron pieces flew out, causing a lot of damage.

At that moment, a voice sounded in the heads of all the generals, 'Landmine'.
