"Knock knock."

The dull and powerful drum sound came from behind Zhang Hongfan, with a strong killing aura, which made Zhang Hongfan's already boiling blood even more boiling. The excitement is even more difficult to suppress. Because, today is the day of the first battle of the ninth son of Zhang Rou, the head of the Great Mongolian Shuntian Road and the marching ten thousand households!

Zhang Hongfan, who was born in 1238, was the same age as Chen Dexing, and he was also born with a dignified appearance, a dignified body, although he was not very old, he had a long beard on his chest and a beautiful demeanor, and he was not under Chen Dexing at all. And the martial arts are strong, the bow horse is skillful, and you are good at dancing on the horse. Different from Chen Dexing, who is slightly inferior in literary talent, Zhang Hongfan has studied under the northern names Confucianism Hao Jing and Yuan Haowen since childhood, not only knows the scriptures of Confucius and Mencius, but also is good at poetry and coping, which can be called a literary and military all-rounder.

But at this time, in the northern Han region, there was no such thing as taking scholars in the imperial examination, no matter how good the literary talent was, there was no chance to make a name for himself in the imperial examination room. If you want to climb up, there is only one way to climb up with military merit! For Zhang Hongfan, who is the ninth son of Zhang Rou and has no chance to continue his father's Juelu, the only way out is to make contributions to the Great Mongolia in the battle array.

However, as a disciple of the famous Confucian Hao Jing and Yuan Haowen, he naturally would not die for Mongolia just for some fame. Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to ask Ying to go south to command the thousands of Han troops sent by the Zhang family in Shuntian when the army of Lianghuai in the south was repeatedly frustrated. Under the edification and education of Hao Jing, Yuan Haowen, and his father Zhang Rou, the young Zhang Hongfan has long had the ambition to help the world.

In his view, Kuang Fu Tianxia is to put an end to the current chaotic times of the war between the north and the south, and realize the unity of the four seas and the world. The Song State, which was entrenched in the south of the Yangtze River and fought against the general trend of Mongol unification of the world, was the main culprit who blocked the unification, made the people of the north and south trapped in the suffering of war, and made the world unable to recuperate.

As the son of the Mongolian Han Marquis, how could Zhang Hongfan not hate such a culprit who did not understand current affairs and resisted reunification?

As for Chen Dexing, who made a name for himself by the Baobao River and killed more than 400 Mongolian warriors, Zhang Hongfan was very interested in meeting with him - naturally on the battlefield! If you can take his head and dedicate it to the Mongolian Great Khan, it will not live up to the ambition of his life!

"General Nine, the Southern Barbarians in front seem to be changing formations!"

The shouts of a veteran of the Zhang family interrupted Zhang Hongfan's thoughts, and he took a deep breath, the ninth son of the Zhang family who was dedicated to serving Mongolia looked forward intently, and saw the Song soldiers hiding behind the military chariots, deer barricades and rejecting horses in chaos, and it seemed that many vehicles had been pushed onto the front line, just behind the shield and pikemen of the Song army.

"What is this?"

"Canopy! Sail! After two dull sounds, I saw two balls that seemed to be white flying out of the Song army's position, drawing an arc in the air, and then falling heavily on the ground—about 110 steps away from the Song army's main array, and more than ten or twenty steps away from Zhang Hongfan.

"What are the Southern Barbarians doing?" The veteran who rode a horse beside Zhang Hongfan muttered.

"What kind of stone machine is this?" Zhang Hongfan had already learned from Li Cuixian that the Song Army had such a weapon, but he didn't know that this stone machine would launch a bomb filled with **. "It seems that it was also made by that Chen Dexing, it's a pity, such a talent pearl is secretly invested, if it is in Great Mongolia, it can be intersected with one or two."

"General Nine, are we going to move on?"

Zhang Hongfan glanced at the veteran beside him, and lowered his voice: "What is the fear of the stone machine?" Passed on a certain general's order, in this battle, my Zhang Jiaerlang has advanced and retreated, and if there is no order to retreat, there is no forgiveness for killing! ”

"Xiucai, million, report the distance?"

"130 steps."

"The direction of the wind? Wind velocity? ”

"The wind is northwesterly, and the wind speed is light."

Chen Dexing crossed his arms and rode on his horse, and asked loudly Kong Xiucai and Huang Zhishen, who were looking at the distance measurement and wind measurement on the car, to count the various numbers - in fact, these numbers were of little use in today's battle, because Chen Dexing had already asked the artillery army to prepare white test projectiles, and he had just dropped two of them, as long as those stupid Mongolian and Han troops who did not know that the catastrophe was coming soon approached the two iron bullets wrapped in white cloth on the ground, Chen Dexing would order the 63 stone starters of the whole army to fire together.

However, Chen Dexing still ordered Huang Zhishen and Kong Xiucai to get into a lookout car and be responsible for distance measurement and wind measurement. This is to train the two of them, and the purpose is to build a reserve talent for the navy army in the coming days. Chen Dexing can let people throw colored iron bullets on the ground, but when they reach the water, this trick is not easy to use - no matter what color iron bullets fall into the water, they will sink!

"Qingzhi, it seems that the enemy of your family came up this time!" Lu Shihu stood up straight on his horse and was also watching the battle, and when he saw the banner of the enemy, he suddenly turned his head to Chen Dexing and said, "It's the people and horses of the Zhang family in Shuntian!" They were the ones who broke through Shouzhou that day! ”

The year in Lu Shihu's mouth refers to the Battle of Shouzhou 14 years ago, and Chen Dexing's grandfather and adoptive father were both martyred in that war. It was Zhang Hongfan's father Zhang Rou who attacked Shouzhou that year!

"It's Zhang Rou's person!" Chen Dexing raised his head and saw only a few big banners fluttering, but he didn't know how Lu Shihu could tell that it was the people of the Zhang family in Shuntian, and there was more than one family surnamed Zhang among the Mongolian Han army marquis.

"Since it's an enemy, it's time to be red-eyed!" Chen Dexing gritted his teeth and shouted: "Artillery army, ignition!" ”

The enemy man has five more steps to go into range! Now is the time to ignite the Heaven-Shaking Thunder. According to the "Artillery Drill Code" drawn up by Chen Dexing himself, the ignition work is personally the responsibility of the artillery commanders.

Zeng Abao, the general of the first team of the left army of the artillery army, was also the cannon commander of a stone machine. This eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man, with dark skin and thick hands and feet, was originally a young man from a fishing family near the left side of Yangzhou, and he had a younger brother named Zeng Aquan, who was now the fourth general of the left army of the artillery army.

The two brothers joined the army together, and the young men here in Lianghuai, regardless of their family background, have some martial arts, on the one hand, to protect themselves when the northern captives invade; On the one hand, he also has the intention of fighting in the army to get rich. For more than 100 years, the two Huai soldiers have been fighting, and I don't know how many Huaishang men have gained wealth from military exploits. Of course, there are more Huaidi boys who donated their lives on the battlefield - Zeng Abao and Zeng Aquan's fathers died in Shouzhou with Chen Dexing's grandfather and adoptive father. Now the two brothers have grown up and have embarked on the old path of their father's military career.

It is this martial folk style cultivated by going forward and fighting against the Tatars from generation to generation that has made the Huaidi men the backbone of the Chinese nation. Only ninety years after Yashan, a group of heroic sons and daughters who started in Huaidi swept the north, expelled Hulu, and restored the mountains and rivers of the Han family.

And today, Huaishang sons and daughters are also fearless in the face of Mongolia in its heyday!

Zeng Abao took out the fire fold, lit the fire line, and skillfully stuffed it into the bamboo tube, and then began to check the other 8 stone machines in his team one by one, and saw the green smoke coming out of the bamboo tube planted on each earth-shaking thunder, so he roared with all his strength: "The ignition is complete!" Then he turned his head to look at Chen Dexing, who was holding a triangular flag in his right hand, which was being held high and suddenly fell suddenly.

"Fat!" Zeng Ah Bao roared, and the nine artillery men who had been ready for a long time slashed the rope! (A good event for pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!)
