It is something that can shoot into the air, fall down, and explode; That is, if you stand like this, you can destroy all things of the enemy; It's something that can be blown to pieces when you walk on the ground, and what else in the world can compare to.

No.

"Nonsense!" Hearing Shang Xin's words, Taiwei retorted fiercely.

"Definitely!" Shang Xin sneered and approached the captain, "Do you know that the 50,000 troops passing through Chang'an Township have been wiped out?" ”

"I guess you know everything!" Seeing that the Tai Lieutenant's face hadn't changed much, Shang Xin decided that he just knew, and continued, "Do you know how they were destroyed? It was General Li who led hundreds of Chang'an villagers to be destroyed. ”

The thief army is approaching the city, and there are some things he can't hide anymore, not to mention that this is also to stabilize the morale of the army.

Feng Qujian smiled when he heard this, and secretly said that his father-in-law lied, obviously it was killed by two thousand elites, but he didn't say it.

But Shang Xin's next words made his eyelids jump.

"Do you want to know what the Chang'an villagers relied on to destroy 50,000 troops with only a few hundred people and no injuries?"

"It's three deadly weapons."

"These three weapons are anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, and mines."

Shang Xin faced the captain directly, and his eyes were full of ridicule.

"Excuse me, is the so-called artillery comparable?"

The lieutenant was speechless, anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, mines? He has never heard of it, what is the difference between it and artillery? He knows that the 50,000 army was destroyed, but he doesn't know how it was destroyed, but as far as he knows about artillery, it is really difficult to destroy the 50,000 army in a limited time, so these three weapons are really that powerful?

At this moment, he was a little scared.

His confidence is that the rebel army has artillery, but if Daqin's three weapons are so powerful, they can suppress the artillery, then the siege of the city is not to send sheep into the tiger's mouth.

Feng Quji didn't see the change in his face, his eyes widened at this moment, he looked at Shang Xin with great excitement, and asked, "Father-in-law, what you said is true, Li Zhao really has such a weapon?" ”

"Of course!" Shang Xin nodded as a matter of course.

"Doesn't this mean that Li Zhao led two thousand troops out of the city to target the artillery of the thief army? Also took away three weapons? Feng Qujian guessed.

"Quite possibly!" Shang Xin knew that Li Zhao led the army out of the city, but he didn't know what exactly he was going to do, but it didn't prevent him from guessing.

Feng Quji was even more excited, his brows raised, and he hurriedly got off the horse and dragged Fa Fu's body to Shang Xin.

"Then Li Zhao, can he take down these artillery?"

"Of course you can!" Shang Xin's face was full of affirmation, "General Li brought these weapons into the city to destroy the thief army. ”

This incident was overheard by Li Zhao in Chang'an Township.

"That's good, that's good! The 100,000 thieves don't have to worry about it. Feng Quji's heart relaxed.

With such a weapon, Li Zhao will definitely be able to wipe out the 100,000 thief army in the east, Dongcheng will not pose a threat, and Daqin will resolve this crisis.

However, someone poured cold water on it.

"100,000 troops don't have to worry? Ha ha! Taiwei sneered, and no longer concealed some facts, in order to increase his bargaining chips, "You are too confident, you don't know yet!" The so-called 100,000 troops in the east are just confusing you, in fact, there are only 30,000 troops, and the other 70,000 troops have surrounded the west gate and the south gate. ”

"What?" Feng Qu was shocked, and his face turned pale instantly.

In this way, even if Li Zhaoquan destroyed the artillery and 30,000 troops in the east, and there were still 70,000 troops besieging it, if there was still artillery on this side, wouldn't it be a disaster.

Judging from Li Zhao's note to His Majesty, he has divided the 50,000 troops, that is to say, the west city and the south city each have more than 10,000 troops, and more than 20,000 troops against 10,000 troops will undoubtedly hit the stone with an egg, even if there are high city walls.

Before, he was not worried about the thief army attacking the city, relying on two thousand elites, but two thousand elites have been taken away, why should he defend the city?

This is another crisis.

Feng Quji was completely panicked, "General Zhang, you must resist the 70,000 thief army, I will report to Your Majesty, and let him mobilize all the guards and useful people to protect Xianyang even if he dies." ”

"Haha!" Hearing Feng Quji's words, the Tai Lieutenant laughed even more wildly, "It's useless, Xiang Gong's army has artillery, even if you have more people, it won't help, you will only become cannon fodder, just wait for the city to be broken!" ”

"Breaking the city? I don't think so. ”

This was said by Zhang Han, and he walked over slowly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, but full of anticipation.

In fact, he did not use the weapon brought by the general, let alone its power, no, he used a machine gun, but the machine gun had already been taken away by the general, and the remaining 5,000 grenades and 3,000 anti-aircraft guns had not tried its power.

He knew the artillery, judging from the general's description, the artillery was terrifying, as for the degree of horror, the general did not say, so he didn't have much confidence in defending the city at that time, but when he heard Shang Xin say this, he came back confidently.

With anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, and mines, 50,000 thieves can be wiped out unscathed, which is not to say that these things are more terrifying than artillery.

That's what he was expecting, although there were no machine guns and mines, anti-aircraft guns and grenades shouldn't be bad.

Seeing Zhang Han say this, Feng Quji's heart settled down, and he asked urgently: "Could it be that General Zhang Han has a way to deal with the thief army?" ”

"Of course!" Zhang Han nodded, and arched his hand, "Feng Xiang, since the thief army has surrounded the West Gate and the South Gate, Zhang Han needs to respond to the battle immediately, and these gangsters will trouble you to deal with them." ”

He glanced at the lieutenant and the man in black.

Feng Qujian nodded.

Zhang Han immediately led the people to the city, but after two breaths, he turned back and said to the tied Tai Lieutenant: "Tai Wei, didn't you say that the thief army will break Xianyang?" ”

"I want to show you with your own eyes, did I destroy the thief army or did the thief army break the city?"

Zhang Han bowed his hand to Feng Qujian again, "Feng Xiang, please allow me to take the Taiwei away and let him see the strength of my city defense army." ”

Feng Qujian thought about it and agreed.

"Thank you." Zhang Han ordered someone to take the captain away.

Feng Quji was very curious about Zhang Han's confidence, and he also followed, and Shang Xin also followed.

So, the group arrived at the wall of the West Gate.

Zhang Han looked at the soldiers under the faint light, standing on the city wall one by one, waiting for the battle, and the soldiers looked down at the city, but the night was too dark, and everything could not be seen really.

"Is there any movement?" Zhang Han asked the soldiers.

The captain said that the thief army has already arrived in the city, how is this really the case, it must be discovered by the soldiers.

But the soldier shook his head, "There is no movement within ten zhang of the city." At this moment, he could only see the situation within ten feet.

"Hmm!" Zhang Han nodded, this is normal, even if the thief army has besieged the city, it will not appear within ten zhang when the city gate is not opened, otherwise it will be a surprise to the snake, you must know that they are a sneak attack, and they want to take Xianyang at the lowest cost.

But since Zhang Han knows about it, he won't let them succeed.

"Immediately transfer all the soldiers at the north gate, focus on defending the west and south cities, and leave a thousand people at the north gate." Zhang Han instructed the guards around him and took out the token at the same time.

The thief army only encircles the eastern, southern, and western cities, and the northern city does not need to garrison too many troops, and there are generals in the east to contain it, presumably it will not be attacked too much, and the current problem is concentrated in the western and southern cities.

The night was silent, the thief army did not make any moves, and Zhang Han did not feel strange, the city gate was not opened, and they did not dare to attack the city rashly.

At dawn, a ray of sunlight breaks through the eastern horizon, dispelling the darkness and bringing light.

At this moment, Feng Quji and the others were relatively tired, but they didn't dare to rest, the thief army was eyeing below, and if they were not careful, they would probably attack the city, and they couldn't sleep.

Under the city wall, dozens of zhang away from the south gate, a commander quietly found Jia Xiong.

"General, when will the siege begin?"

Jia Xiong looked at the south gate in the distance, and when he saw that there was no movement, he was more anxious than anyone else.

He made good contact with Lang Zhongling, opened the city gate at night, and then the army swarmed in, but after waiting all night, the gate was not opened.

"Wait!"

The general was a little impatient and guessed: "General, will our fine work be arrested, otherwise why haven't we opened the city gate until now?" ”

Jia Xiong was silent, in fact, he also had this idea in his heart.

"This Lang Zhongling, it's really useless, this little thing can't be done."

After lurking here all night, coupled with mosquito bites, he was also impatient.

"Otherwise, if we attack without authorization, the south gate will be so many, our 30,000 troops, plus artillery, I'm afraid they won't succeed."

Generals advised.

Jia Xiong thought about it, in fact, he also had this idea, or suppressed this impulse. Although there were artillery and overwhelming numbers, the walls were too high, and the assault would only cause great losses.

He has 50,000 troops, and if he loses, even if he takes Xianyang, it will not be a good thing for him.

"Wait, the military advisor said that if the city gate is not opened, we can only wait for the situation in the east, and only the artillery in the east can be attacked."

This is their agreement.

The generals can't, they can only do it.

The same scene also happened under Xicheng, but it was still held back and did not attack.

The sky was white, and the artillery explosion in the east could still not be heard, but there was some commotion outside the southwest city, which was caused by the lack of strict military discipline.

It happened that this scene was seen by the spies on the city wall.

"General, there seems to be a situation over there." The spy pointed to the distance outside the city, where he could see the top of the tree shaking.

These words alarmed everyone, Zhang Han tried his best to look far away, but he couldn't reach it and didn't find anything.

"Hey! It would have been nice if the telescope had been telescoped, but it was a pity that it was taken away by the general. ”

Zhang Han sighed, at that time, he could see things two miles away, and he believed that he could also see the situation under the shaking of the tree tops with a telescope.

"Telescopes?" This matter attracted Shang Xin's attention, but he asked for a telescope from Li Zhao, and originally wanted to give it to His Majesty, but he liked it too much, so he left it to play for a few days and then dedicated it to His Majesty, which could come in handy at this moment.

"I have!"

Shang Xin took out something from his arms, which was a telescope.

"Telescopes?" Seeing this thing, Zhang Han was overjoyed, and hurriedly snatched it over and looked down.

After a while, he showed a complicated expression of worry and expectation, "Sure enough, there is a situation, the Taiwei did not lie to us, the thief army really surrounded Ximen, and it was over there." ”

Zhang Han pointed to the distance that was not real.

Feng Qujian looked at it, he couldn't see anything, and hurriedly grabbed the telescope to look down, at this moment, he was a little surprised, using this thing and not, the field of vision was so different.

But now is not the time to be surprised, the thieves are besieging the city, and the crisis is suddenly emerging.

"General Zhang, how to deal with it now?"

He is a civil official and is not good at fighting, so he can only look at Zhang Han.

Zhang Han frowned, his eyes fell on a large package in front of those soldiers, no one knew what the big package was, but he knew that it was two major weapons.

But he shook his head.

The general didn't tell him how to use these weapons, whether the power was the same as his father-in-law said, he didn't have a certain number in his heart.

"So be it! Let's pretend to open the city gates, and then lure the thieves to attack the city, gather and destroy it. ”

He had seen the power of machine guns, and a distance of 100 meters was usually the best way to kill the enemy, and he thought that the same was true for the two major weapons.

"That's all there is to it." Feng Qujian nodded.

Zhang Han was about to order someone to pretend to open the city gate, but was suddenly drunk by Shang Xin.

"Wait!" His eyes were fixed on those packages, and he had seen such packages, and the people of Chang'an Township had one each, "General Zhang, is there a weapon hidden in that package?" ”

Zhang Han glanced at Shang Xin curiously, how did he know secretly, but he still nodded.

"Is it anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, etc.?"

Zhang Han nodded and shook his head, and said embarrassedly: "There are no machine guns, only anti-aircraft guns and grenades, but I won't use them, and I'll find a way to use them when the thieves attack the city." ”

"Anti-aircraft guns? Ha ha! It's great that there are anti-aircraft guns. Shang Xinzhi danced, "You don't need to pretend to open the city gate, just solve them." ”

Shang Xin was not without a target, as far as he could visually see that the location of the thief army was about dozens of zhang away from here, and the distance was only dozens of zhang, and it was difficult for the anti-aircraft guns, and he could really see that the thief army a mile away could be bombarded by the anti-aircraft guns and fled.

"Settle it here?" Zhang Han hesitated a little, his eyes fell on the anti-aircraft gun, "Can it work?" ”

"Absolutely!"

"The general tells the gunners to be ready, just listen to my orders, and of course, I will teach them how to use them."

He was familiar with the use of anti-aircraft guns.

"Have you used it, father-in-law?" Zhang Han was surprised.

Shang Xin waved his hand, "It's not important, just kill the thief." ”

Zhang Han was overjoyed, and hurriedly mobilized 1,005 gunners to the city wall, opened them at a distance of half a zhang, and set up the anti-aircraft guns according to Shang Xin's instructions.

Originally, there were only 1,000 gunners at the west gate, but 500 were mobilized from the north gate, and it became 1,005.

Shang Xin will tell you the method of launching.

"It's that simple!" Zhang Han was stunned when he heard this, he thought it was complicated before, but it was so simple.

He couldn't wait to try it for a while, but he couldn't try it at the moment, he wanted to familiarize all the gunners with the operation, including the 1,005 gunners at the south gate.

"And grenades, just light the fuse."

Although he didn't use grenades very well when he killed thieves in Chang'an Township, there were still some of them, and Shang Xin learned them all at a glance.

"Hehe, this one is simpler."

After mastering the firing methods of the two weapons, Zhang Han immediately ordered the centurion to tell the gunner one by one.

Half an hour later, ready to go.
