Chapter Seventy-Five: A Moment of Thunder (1)

"What? Ling Tong retired by himself? Ben hasn't ordered it yet! How could he retreat on his own! Quan Cong's eyes widened for a while, looking at the huge building ships that only spanned the riverside, but he did not give the order to attack for a long time.

"Governor, don't panic! Today, we can wait for the city to respond, and their trebuchets can't hit it here. Ma Zhong hurriedly persuaded, for fear that this Quan Cong would faint under the city.

"This is the only way, and our army has no way out." Quan Cong was also silent for a while, only to feel that the world was spinning and dizzy, and he couldn't, so he had to wait for the news of Li Yan in the city.

It was night, at the end of the hour, a bright red flag suddenly lit up at the head of Yong'an City, Quan Cong looked at it, overjoyed for a while, and immediately ordered: "Tell the pioneer Jiang Yi and the deputy pioneer Pan Zhang, enter the city quickly!" ”

"Order!"

After Jiang Yi and Pan Zhang received the order, they quickly moved closer to Yong'an City, only to hear a creak, the suspension bridge was slowly lowered, and the two glanced at each other, only to feel that their hearts were beating faster.

"General Pan is the general of our army's cavalry, and General Pan has to take the first credit for breaking the city, and the last general should follow General Pan closely behind." Jiang Yiyan said.

"No, no, no, General Jiang is the pioneer of Zhengyin, and the first credit for breaking the city should be General Jiang's."

The two of you actually humbled under this city wall, but it is not really humble, if this Li Yan is a fraud, I am afraid that whoever goes in first will be unlucky.

Quan Cong, who was looking from afar in the camp, became anxious and said, "What are these two doing under the city? Why don't you go into the city yet! Pass on my military order, limit Jiang Yiyi to enter the city within the time of incense, otherwise the military law will deal with it! ”

"Yes!" With the departure of the herald, Quan Cong's face became more and more solemn, he was also gambling, but he didn't have to bet, because all the back roads were cut off, so he could only bet on this. However, God is cruel to all gamblers, and the dream of getting rich overnight is only the first step into the endless abyss.

Jiang Yi received the military order, had to drive forward, but he commanded the remaining brave soldiers, and stepped on the suspension bridge together, and after the front five thousand foot soldiers got on the suspension bridge, Jiang Yi also slowly followed, and suddenly heard a loud shout, only to see that the suspension bridge made a creaking sound again, and indeed did not care about how many soldiers were on the suspension bridge, under the hard pull of the soldiers in the city, the suspension bridge was instantly lifted, and some soldiers were actually slapped alive on the city wall by this huge pull, and only a narrow space was left between the suspension bridge and the city gate, Jiang Yi didn't even have time to retreat, so he was locked in it.

"It's broken! Go and tell the governor that you've been tricked! Jiang Yi shouted hard, Pan Zhang saw this situation and this scene was even more dumbfounded, and in an instant, the bright lights at the head of the city were instantly lit up, and countless arrows and stones poured down like raindrops, between this gap, between the city wall and the line of the suspension bridge, the sound of wailing, colliding, and neighing of war horses, instantly like a tragic music, between the lines that were only illuminated by the moonlight, intertwined and superimposed, intertwined and superimposed, and then, it was the monstrous blood rain of five thousand people, constantly immersed in the moat, flowing into the Yangtze River.....

Quan Cong, who chose a hill overlooking the distance, immediately planted the horse, Ma Zhong immediately stepped forward to support him, but he had already lost his voice, and only a few choked voices: "Dudu, we.... Let's climb the mountain. ”

Quan Cong shouted violently and scolded: "Li Yan's erection! Li Xian'er! Tomorrow I will eat your flesh raw! Yes! ”

Quan Cong hadn't slowed down yet, and suddenly heard a loud shout from the north: "Xu Zhen is here!" In an instant, the sound of the horse's hooves came like thunder, and the Wu State infantry who had lost the Kokang soldiers hurriedly retracted the refusal of the camp after the horse, only the Jiangdong Tiger Cavalry of Pan Zhang's department could still compete with it.

"Xu Qian! Your opponent is me! Hugh hurt my family governor! Pan Zhang raised the green dragon knife in his hand, and beckoned the Jiangdong tiger cavalry to start hedging with the heavy armored cavalry of Xu Qian, that is, at the moment of contact, the huge strength gap instantly made Pan Zhang sober up, such a heavy cavalry, in the Southern Song Dynasty, is the configuration of seventeen heavy cavalry in more than 10,000 soldiers, such five hundred cavalry, is the real killer weapon left to Li Yan, it is the collision at this moment in an instant, Pan Zhang's dream of light cavalry restraining heavy cavalry was instantly shattered.

Pan Zhang was not very reconciled, and indeed after Xu Zhen fought with each other, the tiger's mouth was numb, and he instantly commanded the tiger to retreat at full speed, and how could Xu Qian, who had been killed, let go, that is, he wanted to chase and kill all the way, but was retracted by Li Yanmingjin's voice, and five hundred people crushed the corpses of Jiang Yi and the Kokang soldiers, and swaggered into Yong'an City.

.....

Outside the city of Yiling.

Li Xian seemed more relaxed and leisurely than them at the moment, in fact, he was not paddling completely, but after breaking through Yiling, he began the next step of planning and arrangement.

"The governor, the sergeants, all have emotions and want to go to the battlefield outside Yiling City to pay respects." Chen Zhi swallowed and said.

"Then let's go, now that Sun Huan has escaped into Shimen Mountain, there is no grain and grass, and it is only a matter of time before he is defeated, but this Ling Tong can actually break through successfully, I never expected it." Li Xian also supported his forehead slightly with his hand, knowing in his heart that it was Lu Xun who came back.

"So, Governor, what should we do now?" Chen Zhi said.

Li Xian shook his head and said, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, isn't Wang Rui still in the battle?" ”

Chen Zhi was a little puzzled and asked, "Dudu, isn't Wang Rui still recovering?" ”

Li Xian nodded: "The injuries on his body can be recovered, but the injuries in his heart are not easy to say, so I want to prepare a gift for him." ”

Chen Zhi became more and more puzzled: "Du Du, to tell you the truth, now that the war is imminent, the last general is worried that Du Du's playthings will lose his mind......

How do you know that Li Xian didn't laugh angrily when he heard this, but laughed out loud, such a smile instantly made Chen Zhi into a fog, only to see Li Xian come to his senses and begin to say: "Everyone says that Uncle Shi is loyal and brave, and he is resolute and upright. Immediately afterwards, Li Xian restrained his smile, his face instantly became serious, and he said: "Uncle Shi, I can't hide it, since the day Tian Dali died, Ben Jiang has been planning one thing. ”

"What?"

Li Xian gestured left and right, and took a bag of yellow cloth bags, and in this bag, he could smell a sulfur smell from afar, and he only felt pungent. Chen Zhi immediately arched his hand and asked, "Dare to ask the governor, do you want to do alchemy?" ”

Li Xian shook his head and said, "Uncle Shi, let me tell you, this thing is called gunpowder." ”

"Gunpowder? What is gunpowder? Chen Zhi became more and more puzzled.

Li Xian said: "Since Ben Jiang entered Yiling, he has been thinking about how to deal with this Lu Xun, that Lu Xun is good at scheming, and Ben General can only let him have no plan in order to have the certainty of defeating him." ”

Chen Zhi asked again, "What does that have to do with this thing?" ”

"This is the only thing that can help our army defeat him!" Li Xian suddenly said in a sonorous voice, "And this thing not only has to be used at this time, as long as it appears at this moment, and even hundreds or even thousands of years in the future, it will continue to use him!" That's gunpowder! ”

Chen Zhi said again: "Dudu, this thing is so magical, why didn't you use it in the first place?" ”

Li Xianyan said: "It was Ben Jiang who made this meeting." "Yes, it was indeed at this moment that he made it, and Li Xian also knew that as a high school graduate, making gunpowder was originally a routine operation, and he was stunned to mix himself up with the shame of a traverser, that is, only absolute technology crushing can deal with a genius like Lu Xun.

Chen Zhi asked again: "Then how should this thing be made?" How should our army use this thing if we have it? ”

Li Xian shook his head and said, "Uncle Shi is not in a hurry, I have already ordered someone to set up a workshop in a safe area outside Yiling City, ordinary people can't approach it, as for how to use it," Li Xian suddenly got up, turned his head and circled a city on the map.

"Changsha! Could it be that the governor wants to attack Changsha? Our army has just won a big victory, why not rest for a while, so hurriedly attack Changsha, that Changsha garrison Sun Shao has no less courage than his father, if this Jiangling defender is dispatched to cut off our army's way back, wouldn't it make our army fall into a heavy encirclement? Chen Zhi was puzzled for a while.

Li Xian nodded and said: "What Uncle Shi said is true, but the four counties of Jingnan must be taken, and Jiangling Jiangxia must also be taken, it depends on when and what way to take it!" Since the Dongwu Navy has injured its muscles and bones this time, it is also the day when our tigers come out of the cage. ”

Chen Zhi looked at Li Xian's sworn appearance, and only felt a shock in his heart, for most of his life, he never seemed to be so hearty in front of the charge, but more followed the first emperor to act as a guard, and now, only this little nephew who followed himself could have a good time, although in fact, there were many places that disagreed with Zhao Yun, but with such a comparison of the selection of apprentices, let yourself understand where your gap is.

"When General Zongzhen comes back, you will arrange for him to rest for a while and go to the workshop to supervise the manufacture of gunpowder, I have written all the principles on the paperwork in the workshop, according to what I wrote, it will never be wrong, I will want to sleep for a while."

.....

A muffled thunder in a dream woke up the sleeping Zhuge Liang, and Jiang Wei immediately stepped forward and said, "Prime Minister? Did the prime minister have a nightmare? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head suspiciously, and said: "I dreamed, I dreamed, there was a loud thunder in the sky, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, directly splitting a corner of a city. ”

"The prime minister has a nightmare, go and pour some tea!" Jiang Wei immediately stepped forward to support Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang just muttered, "What does this mean?" A corner of the city is...... It's the southeast corner! Let me see the Yongan Army News! ”

"Prime Minister, that Li Xian and Li Yan designed together, deceived Quan Cong, tens of thousands of foot soldiers of Wu State were stuck under Yong'an City, unable to advance or retreat, and shot the forward general Jiang Yi with a trick of surrender, and now Quan Cong took tens of thousands of people to hide in the Wuling Mountains, intending to return to Wu over the mountain." Jiang Wei said while holding Zhuge in his arms.

Zhuge Liang then said: "Okay, good, cough, cough, okay, but in this way, Wu no longer has the strength of land warfare, how can it be done without ten years of effort." Now our army is left to fight the Wei army alone. ”

"Prime Minister, this is the detailed content of the spy arranged by Li Xian in Wu State, and the final general has been written, and I invite the Prime Minister to take a look." Jiang Wei frowned and put the book on the ground.

Zhuge Liang spread out the book and looked at it, until he saw the second page, he also instantly closed the book, and immediately said: "This method has caused more than two thousand years!" ”
