Chapter 967: Killing Chickens and Monkeys (Medium)
Stroking the cold body of the Shenwei cannon, Qian Duo's happiness was beyond words, his eyes narrowed with a smile, looking at that appearance, he couldn't wait to hug the Shenwei cannon and kiss the two before he was willing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Le Buping held his waist knife, looked at the muzzles of more than a dozen Shenwei cannons, and said sentimentally: "Old Qian, if it was half a year ago, we would have had Shenwei cannons, then Tian Chong, Tian Chong would not have died!" As long as we install Shenwei cannons in the loquat tree ditch, there will be thousands of troops and horses, and we will also bombard him. ā
Hearing Le Buping mention Tian Chong, Qian Duo's smile was also gone, "Lao Tian, alas, ***, it's really unlucky." It's not fair, you can greet me with these gunners, give me whatever you want, and you can't slack off at all, besides! Qian Duo approached Le Buping, and said in a low voice: "Find some clever ones, follow these gunners, if you can steal some masters to learn some art or something, I will be rewarded for the old money!" ā
"Understood!" Le Buping nodded again and again.
On the other side, Chen Zeyue looked at the more than a dozen Shenwei cannons and more than a dozen carts of ammunition that had just been personally escorted by the Flying Eagle Brigade of the Supervision Yuan, and said with some confusion: "Dean, why does this cannon look smaller than the one that was originally allocated to the sailor?" ā
Qingfeng nodded, "General Chen can see very clearly, these cannons are indeed much smaller, and the Shenwei cannon is very powerful, but the only drawback is that it is too heavy and difficult to carry, which is why it was equipped with the sailors at first, the master craftsmen of the First Arsenal have been studying how to cast the cannon that is easy to carry by the army, this is the first batch of samples, in Dingzhou, the smaller ones have been trial-produced and are being tested, maybe next year, they will be installed." The Shenwei cannon equipped by the sailor weighs thousands of catties, and the weight of these cannons is only half of theirs, and the base of the cannon is no longer fixed, but this kind of cannon is equipped with wheels and a device to retreat recoil. ā
"With the Kamui Cannon, it will make war easy!" Chen Zeyue said: "Once a general offensive is launched next year, it will be a devastating trend, and the lord will set the world just around the corner." ā
"You're right, this war has been fought for nearly ten years, and it should be over!" Qingfeng said: "In this world, it's time to be calm." ā
In Donglin City, the guard Zhang Aizhen was sitting by the fire, talking softly with a person, this person turned out to be Zhang Aimin who should be far away in Minzhou City.
"Big brother, what the hell do you think? Luoyang will definitely lose this battle! Zhang Aizhen took a piece of white charcoal and threw it into the brazier, looked at Zhang Aimin, and said. Do we really want to be buried in Luoyang in Minzhou? ā
Zhang Aimin snorted and said, "It's not time yet!" Don't look at Dingzhou's momentum now, but Luoyang is not without the power to resist, and Luoyang still has half of the country! Aizhen, we don't have many chips in our hands, only one chance to bet, once lost, Minzhou Zhangjia is a catastrophe, not to mention, from the heart, I still hope that Luoyang wins, after all, Dingzhou Li Qing has been at war with us for many years, the two sides are as deep as the sea, until the last resort, I will never defect to them. ā
"But big brother, if it really comes to the last resort, does the other party still care about us?" Zhang Aizhen said: "Although Suzhou Zhou Tong has 200,000 troops in his hands, but the Dingzhou Lutian Group, plus what kind of Shenwei cannon they have, Zhou Tong is definitely not an opponent." And in Youyan, do you expect Xiang Ping to be able to resist the coalition of Yang Yidao and Xiao Yuanshan? Big brother, Xiao Yuanshan and Li Qing have a deeper enmity than us, didn't he defect to Li Qing the same, and now he still has great power? ā
"Let's take a look first, our Minzhou has been fully prepared in recent years, blocking the opponent is not a problem, I came to Donglin this time, I just don't worry that you don't have the courage to fight a decisive battle, even if you want to surrender, we have to play the capital of surrender, otherwise, how can we have a foothold in the future?"
"If Li Qing is really beaten, will he allow us to surrender?"
"Li Qing is a person who wants to sit in the world, this mind is still there, only if you hurt him, he will respect you, if you really surrender to the ground, he will look down on you, you have to understand this."
"Yes, big brother!" Zhang Aizhen seems to have been persuaded by Zhang Aimin.
"There will be no war this winter, but you can't take it lightly, Chen Zeyue is treacherous with his troops, he won't fight a big battle, maybe he will harass piecemeal, although he doesn't do the overall situation, but let him take advantage, not only will it increase the morale of the enemy, but also make our soldiers lose morale."
"Don't worry, this big brother, I won't make such a mistake, as long as he dares to come, I will definitely give him a slap in the face." Zhang Aizhen said with confidence.
As the two brothers were talking, an officer outside hurriedly ran in, "General Zhang, ten miles outside Dongyang City, Zhangjiatun, the outer defensive position found that the enemy troops were moving frequently, and it seemed that there was a possibility of attacking." ā
"Who is the commander of the enemy army opposite Zhangjiatun?"
"Dingzhou Tiger Battalion, a lot of money!"
"Money maniac?" Zhang Aimin pondered for a moment, "Let's go, let's take a look!" ā
Out of the East Forest City to the west to walk about five miles, there is a not high mountain bag, the mountain is full of white Yang forest, this season, the leaves have already fallen light, only the bare branches remain, standing on this mountain bag, the Zhangjiatun defense line in the distance is clear at a glance, there are five small fortresses and a large fortress to form a defense system group, there is a sentry in each fortress, a total of more than 3,000 people, guarding the west gate of Donglin.
When Zhang Aimin, Zhang Aizhen and others climbed up the mountain bag, they could already see that on the periphery of the fortress, the Tiger Battalion had already set up an offensive lineup, although it was a little far away, but it was still possible to vaguely see the opponent's lineup, and the Tiger Battalion was pouring out, and the tiger flag with teeth and claws fluttering in the wind, unspeakably hideous and terrifying.
"Doesn't that look like harassment?" Zhang Aimin said hesitantly: "Could it be that the other party actually wants to eat hard?" ā
Zhang Aizhen said with a smile: "The money madman is lucky, this time let him touch a nail, big brother, speaking of which, this fortress is still the first in Dingzhou, let them touch a nose on this, it can be regarded as a heavenly net, and the retribution is not happy!" ā
Zhang Aimin shook his head, "Although Qian Duo is crazy, this is not a rude person, if you really want to talk about it, this person is a little wise and foolish, take a look, maybe this is a template for Chen Zeyue's winter campaign, if it succeeds, Chen Zeyue will inevitably fight elsewhere in this way." ā
In front of the Zhangjiatun formation, Qian Duo was triumphant, rode his horse in front of a horizontal row of Shenwei cannons, and said to the busy gunner: "Brothers, be accurate, clean them up, and when I turn back, I will invite everyone to eat big fish and meat, and eat a meal in the sea!" ā
The artillery captain who commanded the artillery team said with a smile: "General Qian, you better get off your horse and lead the horse behind, or block the horse's ears, this cannon is moving, your horse has never seen this kind of battle, and it will be shocked for a while!" ā
Qian Duo waved his hand disdainfully, "Go and go, my sons and daughters have blocked their ears, and their horses are all tethered, but my horse is different, the bloodline is pure, what kind of battlefield has not been seen, it is a thunderbolt from the sky, he will not have a trace of fear, don't worry, fight your cannon!" Hey, why are you only going to shoot one shot? ā
"General Qian, this cannon is a test of firing range, and if you hit this cannon, the other cannons will be able to adjust the firing angle and firing moment!"
"Okay, don't talk to me anymore, let's do it, it's a cold day, let's go back to eat meat and drink wine early!" Money is a lot.
The artillery officer nodded, "Ignite, fire!" ā
The body of the most powerful cannon trembled, and it slammed backwards, and a huge earth-shattering bang sounded in Zhangjiatun, and white smoke rose and filled the land for several feet. Although his ears were blocked, the faces of the soldiers behind him still changed drastically.
In the white smoke, everyone only heard a loud horse neighing, and then saw a war horse rushing out of the smoke like lightning, jumping and jumping all the way in the direction of Zhangjiatun, the people above were in a hurry, and the tiger battalion was stunned, who was not their commander Qian Duo who was dancing on the horse?
Qian Duo's proud crotch of pure blood war horse finally did not resist this sudden loud noise, frightened, did not argue the direction, did not listen to the control, and rushed towards the direction of Zhangjiatun.
Qian was shocked on the horse, his own ears were also buzzing at this time, watching the horse gallop towards the enemy's fortress, he couldn't help but scatter, if he was under the opponent's fortress, the opponent would shoot himself into a hedgehog. The reins were pulled sharply, and the horse's head was strangled high, but the horse was still galloping forward.
"I'm going!" Qian Duo looked at the fortress that was getting closer and closer, gritted his teeth, jumped off the galloping horse, ran a few steps with the horse, fell to the ground, and rolled on the spot, while rolling more than a dozen times, then he turned over and climbed up, and when he looked up, his face was white, and he was already within the range of the other party.
Turning around, he took a big stride, and ran back, looking back at his war horse as he ran, "You shit, when you come back, Lao Tzu will definitely kill you and eat meat!" ā
The Tiger Battalion was only stunned for a moment, and immediately more than a dozen people rode Pegasus towards Qian Duo, and if they couldn't get the money back, it would be a lot of fun.
Fortunately, this loud noise not only startled Qian Duo, startled the tiger battalion, but also startled the enemy troops on the fortress in the distance, the black projectile pierced the sky, hit the middle of a fortress heavily, the whole fortress shook, the soldiers on it were stunned, frightened, no one even remembered to shoot arrows at the frightened war horse and the knight on the horse under the city.
At the rear of the Tiger Battalion, Chen Zeyue looked at Qian Duo's embarrassed figure, and his face turned green. Qingfeng couldn't help laughing, and Xia Xue and Qiu Ping behind Qingfeng were even more happy to laugh, and in the laughter, a cavalryman ran in front of Qian Duo, stretched out his hand, and grabbed Qian Duo, Qian Duo flew up and landed on his horseback.
"Kamui Cannon!" On the mountain bag, Zhang Aimin and Zhang Aizhen's faces changed greatly and blurted out. Although it was far away, the loud noise was still clearly audible.
