A gunshot rang out, and Jiannu fell off his horse without answering the sound at night.

Xu Yingwei saw it from a distance and couldn't help but be taken aback.

It takes more than 100 steps, right? Can you hit with one shot from such a distance?

This guy, the luck of the king is too good.

Xu Yingwei chalked it up to luck, which in his opinion can only be good luck.

I have to admit that there is indeed an element of luck here, mainly because Jiannu has formed a mindset about the Ming army's flintlock pistol in countless outposts at night, as long as the distance is more than fifty steps, the Ming army's flintlock pistol is an ornament, so there is no evasion action of hiding in the kick at all.

On top of that, the terrain is also very flat.

Otherwise, Zhu Cijiong really couldn't hit Jiannu at such a distance.

By the time Xu Yingwei arrived with a team of scout cavalry, Zhu Cijiong had already dismounted and cut off the rat tail that Jiannu did not collect at night, and Jiannu's big bow and horse chopping knife were also looted.

These are his trophies, and they are to be collected.

After a few decades, he will be able to take out these war products and brag to his children and grandchildren about the heroic deeds of the year.

Zhu Cijiong kicked Jiannu's corpse again, and said with a smile: "Xu Zhizhi, this Jiannu's head and the chain mail cotton armor on his body will be given to you." ”

Xu Yingwei didn't say anything, but turned over and jumped off the horse.

When I got closer, I saw that there was an extra hole in Jiannu's chest that he didn't collect at night, and this shot pierced Jiannu's cotton armor and the front of the chain mail.

Blood is still pouring out of it at the moment.

Zhu Cijiong said with some embarrassment: "The two armors are both broken holes in the chest, and they are still easy to repair, even if they are not repaired, they can be used on the other side, at least they can block the arrows from the front." ”

Xu Yingwei's eyes widened: "A hundred steps, can you still penetrate two layers of armor?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Yingwei's corner of his eye suddenly saw a black shadow rising from the grass dozens of steps away.

Xu Yingwei reacted instantly, this is another secretly lurking Jiannu who doesn't accept it at night, and before he can think about it, he threw Zhu Cijiong to the ground with a flying pounce.

At the moment when Xu Yingwei pounced on Zhu Cijiong, a scream swept over the heads of the two.

When the two of them fell to the ground and turned over again, they saw a wisp of red tassels slowly falling, but it was the tassel spear on Zhu Cijiong's stomach that was shot down by Jiannu who did not collect an arrow at night.

Xu Yingwei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

It's so hanging, King Ding was almost killed by an arrow.

Zhu Cijiong was furious, and immediately turned over and jumped up.

At this time, Jiannu, who failed to succeed in one blow, had already ridden away at night.

And in the blink of an eye, it was almost a hundred paces away, and there was only a small point left.

"Look for death!" Zhu Cijiong raised his rifled rifle and locked on Jiannu, who was galloping on his horse, and did not accept it at night.

"Dingwang, forget it." Xu Yingwei got up, patted his ass and said, "It's so far, it's a waste of lead." ”

Zhu Cijiong was unmoved, just raised the muzzle of the gun up slightly, and then gently pulled the trigger, and then there was an explosion, and the muzzle of the gun instantly spewed out a cloud of white smoke.

"How, didn't you miss? This is the ...... of the waves."

Xu Yingwei said as he turned his head to look at the Jiannu in front of him.

The next moment, the word "Fei" was stuck in Xu Yingwei's throat, and he couldn't come out again.

Xu Yingwei was very surprised to see that Jiannu, who was galloping on a horse, did not collect it at night and actually fell from the horse's back.

Xu Wuniu, Xu Yinglong, Xu Laohu and others are also stupid in place, how is it possible? At such a distance, King Ding was able to kill Jiannu with one shot and didn't collect it at night? What kind of fairy luck is this?

After a long time, Xu Yingwei said: "King Ding, how did you do it?" ”

Zhu Cijiong smiled and said: "This is nothing, last month in the Purple Mountain, Lone once shot a pheasant in the treetops two hundred steps away, that is difficult." ”

"What, two hundred paces away?" Xu Yingwei lost his voice.

Xu Wuniu, Xu Yinglong and others also looked at each other, unable to believe their ears.

"Here you go." Zhu Cijiong didn't say any nonsense, and directly handed the rifled rifle in his hand to Xu Yingwei, took out a paper shell and handed it over, and said, "You can try it." ”

"Dingwang, is it because of the gun?" Xu Yingwei reacted instantly.

"You're right, it's because of the guns." Zhu Cijiong said with a smile, "This is not an ordinary flintlock pistol, my father said that this is an improved version of the flintlock pistol, called a rifled rifle, and the official model is called the 20 type." ”

Because it was a model that Chongzhen had only set for 20 years, it was called a 20-type rifle.

"Two-zero?" Xu Yingwei bit open the paper shell and fixed the ammunition, then turned over the anvil, first poured a little gunpowder into the powder room, then closed the anvil, and then poured the remaining gunpowder into the muzzle.

After pouring the gunpowder, Xu Yingwei also deliberately looked at the lead.

It was found that this lead was also different, it was not round, but conical.

And there is also a cork at the bottom of the conical lead, which is empty in the middle.

Zhu Cijiong also specially reminded: "Xu gave advice, there is a wooden stopper, this head is facing down." ”

Xu Yingwei nodded, stuffed the lead into the muzzle, and then pressed it into the chamber with a strip.

After the loading was completed, Xu Yingwei began to look for the target in all directions with the 20 type.

Zhu Cijiong pointed to a small tree a hundred steps away and said, "Xu gave advice, just hit that tree." ”

"Okay." Xu Yingwei responded, immediately aimed at Xiaoshu and pulled the trigger, and then a gunshot rang out.

Everyone looked at it again, and saw that the small tree a hundred paces away had broken in two from the middle, and the canopy that had lost its support immediately fell to the ground.

"Well done!"

Xu Wuniu and other soldiers applauded.

"Can you really hit?" Xu Yingwei was also pleasantly surprised.

"Is this still fake?" Zhu Cijiong said with a smug face, "The Type 20 rifle is much more powerful than the flintlock pistol, not only is it accurate, it can hit accurately two hundred steps away, and the penetration is also strong, Xu gave you a warning just now, one hundred and fifty steps, one shot can penetrate Jiannu's double armor!" ”

"Good gun, really good gun."

Xu Yingwei was overjoyed and said: "With such a good gun, what are the white-armored soldiers of Jiannu afraid of?" ”

"Brother Duan, it's all here." As soon as Zhu Cijiong raised his hand, Xia Wanchun led a team of new troops to bring ten pack horses, carrying ten wooden boxes on the horses, and from the shape, he knew that they were loaded with rifles.

Zhu Cijiong pointed to the box and said, "Xu Zhizhi, this is the twenty-zero style for you, one hundred sticks." ”

"Why are there only a hundred?" Xu Yingwei said disappointedly, "Can you give us a few thousand more?" ”

"What are you talking about, thousands?" Zhu Cijiong was happy, "The Daming Arsenal has only produced a total of two hundred, and just this hundred, it is still my father's repeated request, and Lone is squeezed out of his own share." ”

"So little?" Xu Yingwei was stunned and asked, "Is the output of the 20-style very small?" ”

"What do you say?" Zhu Cijiong didn't have a good air, "There are only fifty in total every month." ”

"I see." Xu Yingwei quickly became happy again, "Although a hundred is not much, it is enough to equip our scout dragoons, now we can let go of the night of Jiannu." ”

"This is it." Zhu Cijiong smiled and said, "You go out with a hundred horses, and you go out with a hundred horses, and the two of us join forces to hunt and kill Jiannu at night, and no one is allowed to stay!" ”

"I don't dare to ask for it."

Xu Yingwei said with a smile: "In this way, we can implement the battlefield blockade that the Holy Lord said about Jiannu, so that the Jiannu in Shengjing City will become blind and deaf, and they will not know anything about our movements." ”

"Don't say anything, let's get to work."

Zhu Cijiong couldn't wait to hunt Jiannu and didn't collect it all night.

After fighting pheasants and hares in the Purple Mountain for more than half a year, Zhu Cijiong has long been tired of it, and this time he finally came to Liaodong, so he can't catch Jiannu and kill him at night?

Now, it is difficult for Jiannu, who is wandering in the Liaohe Plain, to collect it at night.

As long as Jiannu is found by the Ming army scouts at night, he basically can't run away, because the Ming army scouts are also elite, and their marksmanship is extremely accurate, and after changing to a 20-type rifle, they are even more unstoppable.

In the next two days, there were constantly Jiannu who did not collect at night and were discovered and hunted by the Ming army.

Two days later, in the morning, the Ming army's scout cavalry was less than ten miles away from Liaoyang.

Looking at it from a distance, you can even see the dilapidated outline of Liaoyang City.

"Xu gave advice, it should be Liaoyang in front, right?" Zhu Cijiong asked, pointing forward.

Xu Yingwei nodded and said, "Well, in front of you is Liaoyang City, where the original Liaodong Town is located." ”

Zhu Cijiong asked again: "Liaoyang is an important town in Liaodong, and there should be a lot of Jiannu garrisoned. ”

Xu Yingwei shook his head and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint King Ding, there aren't many Jiannu in Liaoyang, at best, there are only two or three hundred Jiannu, and most of them are prisoners or fugitive slaves." ”

"What, only two or three hundred?" Zhu Cijiong was greatly disappointed when he heard this.

After a pause, he said, "In this case, we might as well take Liaoyang first." ”

"Of course." Xu Yingwei nodded and said, "If you want to fight Shengjing, you must first take Liaoyang." ”

As he spoke, he found that Jiannu did not harvest at night in the wilderness ahead, and then staged another hunt and counter-hunt.

Nearly noon, the scout cavalry led by Xu Yingwei had already arrived outside Liaoyang City, and the Jiannu stationed in the city immediately sounded the warning horn, and sparse Jiannu gradually appeared on the city.

Xu Yingwei ordered Xu Yinglong and Xu Laohu to continue to search and hunt Jiannu for the night and cut off the battlefield, while he found a place to spread out the felt, and asked Xu Wuniu to take out the leftover wine and food from yesterday.

"King Ding, it will take half a day for the infantry brigade and artillery battalion to arrive."

Xu Yingwei shook his hand and said, "Let's eat something first and pad our stomachs." ”

Zhu Cijiong happily agreed, sat down and asked Xu Yingwei while eating: "Xu Zhizhi, there is something that I don't understand, why do you want to let Li?" Tell the truth? ”

"This, in fact, can be regarded as a counter-strategy." Xu Yingwei said with a smile.

"Counter-plotting?" Zhu Cijiong snorted and said, "Xu Zhizhi, how can this be a counter-plot?" In Lone's opinion, this is clearly three hundred taels of silver here, clearly reminding Jiannu to beware of Li? Yes. ”
