Chapter 889: Cannonballs! Cannonball!
When the tenth elder brother saw Puonlev, he learned from Pu'anlev's mouth that the Rakshasa people had sent an expeditionary force of 20,000 Rao, and at the same time they were still mobilizing the army, it was a joy to be excited.
The number of 20,000 rao is indeed very small compared to the men and horses who plotted against Alabutan.
However, the expeditionary force dispatched by the Rakshasas this time mainly carried firearms, muskets, artillery, and sufficient ammunition. From the news brought by Puonlev, the Ten Elder Brothers were already able to deduce the strategic policy of Rakshasa Rao. Join forces with the Dzungar Department, at that time, there will be a cavalry of Arabutan to echo, and these 20,000 Rao troops, as long as the ammunition is sufficient, can sweep the entire Qing Dynasty.
Of course, this strategy is correct, but the other party doesn't know that the range of their artillery is much worse than that of General Weiyuan's artillery.
Weiyuan General Cannon will be the key to victory.
"Dai Zi, cannonballs, we must ensure that General Weiyuan's artillery has enough cannonballs!"
"Lord Wang, the lower officials must do their best!"
What can Dai Zi do?
Before the conspiracy Alabutan led the troops to attack, Dulan was responsible for the defense of Kulen City, and completely relied on the range and power of General Weiyuan's artillery to suppress the offensive of the Dzungar Department. The direct result of this is that the shells of General Weiyuan's cannon are consumed super quickly.
Now, the posture of the tenth elder brother is to ask General Weiyuan to attack the main attack and shells, but I am afraid that sooner or later it will not be enough.
"Dai Zi, this king knows that this matter is a little difficult to do, but whether we can win the Rakshasa people depends on whether our cannonballs are enough!"
"And as long as this battle is won, the Rakshasas will no longer be in trouble!"
"So, no matter what difficulties you have, before the Rakshasa comes, this king must see enough cannonballs!"
"If you win this battle, you will be the first to take credit, and you and your men will be rewarded for your merits. Don't dare to do anything else, adding officials to knighthood is absolutely indispensable! ”
"Yes!"
Dai Zi took a deep breath and responded in a deep voice.
Since it was a decisive battle, could he refuse?
Originally, after Arabutan was killed, Dai Zi wanted to let the group of people under him rest for a while. But after knowing that the Rakshasa people were still colluding with the Arabutan, he didn't dare to let the people below rest.
Now, it's somewhat prescient.
However, if you want to process enough submunitions, you still need to hurry.
Fight!
After Dai Zi went back, he gathered the people under his hands as soon as possible and passed on the requirements of the tenth elder brother.
"The Rakshasa people will arrive soon, and they are all firearms, whether we can win, whether we can increase the rank of knight and glorify the ancestors, it depends on whether there are enough shells from General Weiyuan's cannons!"
"Today, this official doesn't have anything nice to say to you, just one word, fight!"
"Fight!"
Jin Sanshun, Chen Laoshi, and Wang Gui had already won military merits during the previous Cossack cavalry invasion, and all three of them were knighted, so they naturally resolutely supported Dai Zi at this moment.
"Get to work!"
"Get to work!"
A group of people screamed, and they all took out their spirit and began to get busy.
In fact, everyone knew that if they couldn't defeat the Rakshasas, they would definitely end up miserable. Even for their own good life, they have to work hard.
While Dai Zi was leading the people to start making cannonballs, the Tenth Elder Brother was discussing another calculation with Puonlev, and if this calculation was completed, General Weiyuan might not be needed to use the cannonball.
