"Today, the Tartars steal the artifact, and the country is bloody............ The general army of each town promoted the king of Jin Dingguo as the generalissimo of the whole world............ It is to expel the Tatars and restore China. ”

As the text was read out, a sonic sound shook the universe in the silent camp.

"Expelling the Tartars and Restoring Chinese ......"

"Give me back the rivers and mountains."

"Blood debt and blood payment."

Seeing this, Li An nodded slightly, and took advantage of such an impassioned atmosphere to wave his hand and shout: "The whole army is marching." ”

Ma Bao and Lei Pilgrim led the soldiers and horses of the Three Towns to leave the barracks first.

"Chongren, if this battle is won, the entire southwest will be in the bag of King Jin. Have you ever thought about it later? Ma Bao, who was playing horses, asked casually.

"Later? Naturally, he followed the King of Jin to fight the Tartars. Lei Chaosheng said without hesitation.

Ma Bao was also helpless when he heard this, this Lei Chongren only thought about fighting in his mind, and he didn't hear the meaning of his words at all. Doesn't he know to follow King Jin to fight the world? What he meant was that the surname Zhu or the surname Li in this world?

"Chongren, I also know how to follow King Jin to fight Tartars. Just have you ever wondered? Will we be loyal to the King of Jin or the Ming Dynasty in the future? ”

Ma Bao's words made Lei Pilgrim fall into deep thought.

Ma Bao saw that Lei was silent on pilgrimage, and then said: "Before going on the expedition, I think the king means to make Zhu Ci the emperor. I know that you are an upright person, brother, if I say something unpleasant, I am stupid. ”

When Lei Pilgrim heard Ma Bao say that he was stupid, an expression of shame suddenly appeared on his face.

"Don't worry!" Seeing this, Ma Bao hurriedly stroked it.

"According to your temperament, do you think that if the little emperor wants to seize power in the future and asks you for help, will you help?"

Ma Bao's words made Lei Pilgrim feel in a dilemma.

He didn't know how to answer Ma Bao for a while, so he simply slapped the horse with two whips.

"Hiss"

With a cry of pain, the horse spread its four hooves and galloped forward with the thunder pilgrimage.

Seeing that Lei Chaosheng was evading this question, Ma Bao couldn't help but shake his head.

Then he turned his head to the adjutant general next to him and ordered: "Tell the whole army, speed up." ”

"Yes."

After the order was delivered, the army of the three towns began to rush towards Guanling.

Soon after Ma Bao led the army away, the soldiers and horses of the rest of the towns also gathered their camps and started to leave.

Soon after the army began, soldiers from the baggage battalion came to report the news.

“…… Newspaper..."

"Marshal Qiqi, the War Bureau has used the latest artillery to transport it to the baggage battalion."

According to the drawings given by Li An, the War Bureau designed a variety of cannons, and there were four models: light cannon "General Weiyuan" type, medium cannon "General Shengong" type, quasi-heavy cannon "Shenwei General type", and "heavy cannon" Wucheng Yonggu General type.

The weight from low to high is 160 kg, 475 kg, 2168 kg, and 5680 kg.

Originally, these types of guns were designed by the Qing court in 1669 with the help of Nan Huairen. Now it has been launched seven years in advance, and this kind of spindle-type breech-mounted artillery is of course difficult for Li An, who is a military expert, and he drew the drawings long ago and handed them over to the Military War Bureau for development and production.

Li An said to Ma Siliang next to him: "Siliang, you and I will go to the baggage camp to see the newly transported artillery." ”

Subsequently, Li An asked Jin Tongwu to lead the forward forward, and he and Ma Siliang went to the baggage camp to check the artillery.

In a moment, Li An and Ma Siliang saw the latest artillery, and Li An touched the brand-new cannons, and his heart was excited. I smashed a lot of money down, and finally saw the results.

Four types of artillery, 98 light guns, 22 medium guns, 7 quasi-heavy guns, 1 heavy gun. Together with the old large and small artillery, the total number of artillery pieces is close to 200.

These nearly 200 cannons are the confidence that they can win this battle.

Even if Ma Bao loses all the way, he can use these nearly 200 cannons to cripple Shang Kexi.

Then, Ang Lee looked at the ammunition reserves again. A large amount of black powder and various earth explosives transported by Qi Lei before, plus a batch of gunpowder transported with the artillery this time.

I really haven't fought this kind of battle for wealth in eight lifetimes.

Subsequently, Qi Lei rushed back to the military battle with his subordinates.

Following.

At noon, Li An led a large army to Luoping.

Shang Kexi got the news in the morning, so he watched the city early. I saw that the black pressure in front of me was overwhelming, like a dark cloud shrouded over.

The army slowed down, and finally set up camp ten miles outside the city.

Shang Ke is glad to see that the Ming army has strict military discipline, the military appearance is mighty, and his heart is also heavy. After the army set up camp, Shang Kexi took a closer look and found that the number of troops did not match the original estimate, and there was a small decrease of half of the people.

Wu Sangui next to him also found that the number of Ming troops seemed to be wrong.

"Yuanji, isn't the number right? How come the Ming army only has fifty or sixty thousand people? Some time ago, my subordinates found out that the Ming army was expanding its ranks, and it was estimated that there would be more than 80,000 people. Wu Sangui frowned and asked Shang Kexi next to him.

"Don't worry, uncle, wait for me to send scouts to see and find out."

Immediately, Shang Kexi ordered the deputy general next to him to arrange people to investigate one or two.

On the first day, neither Shang Kexi nor Ang Lee acted rashly.

Ang Lee just pushed out a third of the cannon and tried it.

After testing the power of the artillery, Ang Lee ordered the cannon to be collected and returned to the battalion.

Shang Kexi and Wu Sangui were worried about Ang Lee's test gun. After seeing so many artillery, the two of them felt like a stone in their hearts, there were not so many cannons in this Luoping City.

After the test gun, the generals assembled in the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Now we have set up a large camp at the West Gate, and we will try to attack from the West Gate tomorrow, who will fight the first battle tomorrow?" Li An, who had a serious face, looked around at the generals.

"The last general will fight."

"The first battle will be fought by the last one."

"I'll come."

Suddenly, there was a cry of war in the tent.

In fact, Li An wanted Li Lu to fight the first battle tomorrow. And Li Lu is now the deputy general of the battalion, and he is not qualified to come to the big tent to discuss matters. Those who are qualified to come to the big tent to discuss matters are all generals above the level of guerrilla generals.

The first battle will be fought tomorrow, and it will be difficult to convince the public with Li Lu's position as a battalion deputy general. After thinking about it again, Li An ordered that Wei Yong take the lead in the camp to fight the first battle, and Li Lu assisted him.

All the generals are vying to fight the first battle and grab the credit of being the first, but Ang Lee has already given the order, and he can only obediently obey the order.

After nightfall, Li An personally inspected the towns and ordered the commanders to strictly prevent the Qing army from attacking at night.

He also arranged for men to dig a large pit at the two camp gates, each with a depth of a few feet, and placed a tripwire behind the big pit.

As soon as the army arrived, it was necessary to strictly prevent Wu Sangui and monk Kexi from stealing the camp.

Li Anzhijun will never ignore any detail, even if the Qing army does not come to steal the camp tonight, he will still arrange it.

After making a round without problems, Ang Lee returned to the camp to rest.
