"Hmph, what is artillery? There are also in our army! ”

Sun Li waved his hand, and the oilcloth on the rear frame was lifted, and the tiger cannons were exposed.

"So much!"

Song Jiang and the others looked at the tiger cannon on the carriage in surprise, it was the first time they had seen so many artillery.

"These ......"

Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo's faces changed slightly, they both served in the army, so they naturally knew that there were artillery in the imperial court, but these things were regarded as secret weapons in the army, and they could not be used easily.

"This is really bloody, no wonder you dare to hit Liang Shanbo!"

Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo glanced at each other, and they both had the same idea.

Sun Li gave his soldiers a look, and they immediately commanded their soldiers to transport the artillery to the front line.

Sun Li glanced at Song Jiang and the others, and left with his own troops.

"This guy has artillery and didn't take it out earlier!"

When Mu Chun saw those artillery, he gritted his teeth with red eyes and said, if they also had artillery, why would the army of four people who died just now be defeated.

Song Jiang had to shake his head helplessly, he had also seen the power of artillery, it was impossible for the imperial court to release such sharp weapons easily, and they were not treated well at all, how could they get the right to use artillery?

"Let's go, fight with the army!"

Song Jiang said to everyone, now they can only follow Sun Li to see if they can pick up some credit.

"Listen to the thieves in the city, the officers and soldiers have arrived, and the city will surrender, otherwise the artillery will wait!"

Luan Tingyu stepped forward and shouted, the rows of artillery behind him had been erected.

"The enemy also has artillery?"

Liu Tang's face changed slightly as he looked at the row of artillery.

"The artillery was originally made by the Tokyo Armory, and it is normal for the imperial court to have it."

Wu Yong is not surprised, the Liangshan artillery was built by Ling Zhen, and Ling Zhen worked in the Tokyo Jiazhan Arsenal before he went up the mountain.

"If you have the ability, you will come to bombard, who is afraid of whom!"

Hu Cheng patted the artillery beside him and shouted, Liangshan's artillery is not vegetarian.

"Fire!"

Seeing this, Sun Li immediately asked the soldiers to load the shells.

The defenders of the city were also reloaded.

"The defenders go down to the city, leaving only a few gunners!"

Wu Yong said to everyone, the artillery bombardment was extremely fierce, and the more people, the greater the casualties.

"Master Li Zhuang, Brother Liu Tang, you just fought two battles, now leave it to us!"

Hu Cheng looked at Li Ying and Liu Tang and said.

"Good!"

The two of them didn't have any opinions, and by the way, even Xiao Rang, Jin Dajian, and Du Xing also went down to the city together.

"Brother Hu Cheng, you are also proficient in artillery?"

Wu looked at Hu Cheng who was fiddling with the artillery in surprise, this thing Liang Shanbo is most proficient in should be Ling Zhen and his firearms battalion.

"Let the pedant laugh, I, a person who can't do anything, can only learn some miscellaneous studies."

Hu Cheng said with a smile. In terms of resourcefulness, he is far inferior to Liangshan's military advisors, even compared to Wu Yong. In terms of martial arts, no single leader on Liangshan can be compared to him.

After the battle of Dulong Mountain Sanzhuang, Zhujiazhuang was destroyed, Li Jiazhuang and Hujiazhuang took refuge in Liangshan, Hu Chengcheng became very crisis-oriented, Hujiazhuang was not as rich as Li Jiazhuang, his martial arts were not as good as Li Ying, and his wealth and goods were out of reach.

So Hu Chengcheng began to think about what he could do, and finally found that he couldn't do anything, and after being closed off for a long time, he began to aim for a firearm.

Firearms have a very high status in Liangshan, and Sun Lei attaches great importance to them, but the traditional leaders of this new weapon have no desire to learn and study, which gives him a glimmer of hope.

"This is not miscellaneous, I have seen the power of the Ling Zhen brothers' artillery in the north, it is really indestructible, this thing will definitely be a big killer on the battlefield in the future."

Wu Yong shook his head and said, the battlefield is the most honest place, winning on the battlefield is winning or losing, and artillery, which is enough to change the situation of the war, will be indispensable on the battlefield over time.

"Haha, Wu Xue, let's see me shoot!"

Hu Cheng smiled and adjusted the barrel, lit the fuse, and knocked a tiger bottle cannon outside the city to the ground with one shot.

"Fire!"

Sun Li, who was outside the city, saw that the cannon was fired on the city, and it was also an order, and the tiger cannon began to fire.

The cannonballs hit the county seat of Linpu, and the stone chips flew up, Linpu County is not a big county, the city wall is only more than two zhang, and the city wall is not strong, and it can't carry the artillery at all.

At the same time, the city's artillery also began to exert its power, and several tiger cannons were directly overturned.

"Go on!"

Sun Li did not have the slightest sense of distress and ordered the artillery to continue.

"Can the battle still be fought like this?"

Li Zhong and the others were dumbfounded, they thought that Sun Li would let the artillery attack after a few rounds, but in the end, Sun Li wanted artillery to bombard.

"Pull up the trebuchet too!"

Sun Li saw that the artillery bombardment did not take advantage, and asked the soldiers to pull the trebuchet up.

The trebuchet was erected, and huge stones were also thrown to Linpu County.

Hu Cheng, who was hiding behind the female wall, was not panicked, although the enemy artillery was numerous, but its power was limited, and there was no way to break the female wall, and the trebuchet attack was even more limited.

Now that most of the defenders of their city had withdrawn from the city, the stones thrown by the trebuchets could only be smashed into the air.

"This city is not easy to defend!"

Wu Yong leaned against the female wall and sighed and said, he originally wanted to drag the enemy in Linpu County for a few days, but now it seems that it would be good to drag it for a day.

The roar of artillery was all above and below the city, mixed with the sound of trebuchets hitting the city walls, and no one heard Wu Yong's words.

The confrontation lasted from noon to dusk, and only then did the two sides die down.

At this time, the county seat of Linpu was already dilapidated, the city tower had been blown down, and the city wall was also full of potholes.

"The army retreats five miles back and camps to rest, and the city will be broken tomorrow!"

Sun Li ordered to everyone, he has played well today, although there is some loss of equipment, but it is still within the acceptable range.

Although the Great Song Dynasty was not good at fighting, this equipment was extremely rich, and there were countless craftsmen and workshops in Tokyo, and the equipment could be made again quickly.

"General Sun, why don't you take advantage of the situation to attack the city?"

Song Jiang looked at Sun Li and asked, although the bombardment did not take advantage of today, the enemy was also beaten so that he couldn't raise his head, and this was a good time to attack the city.

"How many enemies do you think this battle has killed? Just now, the defenders of the enemy city were hidden, and the enemy's combat strength was not damaged in the slightest. Don't want the morale you just inspired? ”

Sun Li glanced at Song Jiang, pointed to Linpu County and said, Song Jiang doesn't know how to march and fight at all, and the battle between the two armies is not a ruthless grab for territory in the rivers and lakes.

"The enemy just grabbed the stupid idea of such people, and now the city should be full of armies! Just waiting for you to storm the city. ”

Sun Li added, and sure enough, there were many soldiers walking around on the city wall.

Song Jiang was speechless by Sun Li, where did he know anything about military affairs, and he saw that he had the advantage in the afternoon, so he wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue.
