Lin Chao thought for a while and said, "There are only two people, one person holds the barrel of the gun and loads ammunition, and one person aims and shoots." ”

As for how to hold the barrel, he decided to make a batch of brackets, like the bipods of pikemen.

Ling Zhen saw that he was very interested, and had to test it overnight.

Lin Chao was very concerned, he watched from the side, and if there was a problem, he immediately discussed it and found a way to solve it.

Later, the barrel was adjusted to two meters nine, and the firing range finally exceeded one hundred and fifty steps, and hundreds of small iron pellets were stuffed into each one.

The bracket was also successfully made, and it was an iron fork with a height of 1.6 meters, on which the assault rifle could be mounted and aimed.

However, Lin Ran still shook his head.

"The speed at which the bullet exits the barrel is not enough, can it be accelerated. The world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable, if the speed is fast enough, one shot can knock the heavy cavalry off the horse. I heard that the Jin State has thousands of iron floating slaughter, known as invincible in the world, and when the time comes, I will use thousands of muskets to turn them all into scrap metal. ”

Ling Zhen became excited, but quickly became embarrassed: "My lord, my subordinates need time and materials to try. ”

This time I went to Jiangnan to travel lightly, and I didn't bring enough gunpowder, and it was not convenient to carry this thing.

Although it was late autumn, the gunpowder burned and exploded too easily.

And it didn't take long for the experiment to produce handy shells, even if Ling Zhen led people to work overtime, it was not enough for his 500 people.

Huang Wenbing came to Lin Chao and asked if he had written it, and if he had merit, he should send it out quickly.

Meritorious service is as important as winning a battle, and it cannot be delayed.

Lin Chao remembered this and told Ling Zhen that he would come back later, and let him study it overnight.

A total of two letters were written, one for Gao Yu and one for Song Huizong, and the content was similar.

Lin typed the draft twice before it was neatly copied and handed it to Huang Wenbing to read again.

Huang Wenbing was a little worried, because Lin scribbled in the vernacular.

But the invitation is important, and it will be handed over to the messenger, and it will be sent out early tomorrow morning.

Urgent documents can be delivered to Tokyo City in one day, and whether or not they are presented to the officials depends on the prime minister's intentions.

However, this is the hot military situation at the moment, hundreds of thousands of troops are dispatched, and there are favored ministers and high-ranking officials like Gao Yu who are waiting to share their merits, Lin Chao believes that there is no problem.

By the way, he typed a draft and wrote down tomorrow's recital.

......

On October 17, the third watch of the alchemy army lit a fire to make food, and the fifth watch was ready to go.

In the camp of the Chinese army, Lin Chao yawned with red eyes, and Ling Zhenhu Sanniang and others who had not slept with him all along, but they were all in good condition.

Everyone looked at Lin Chao, no one said anything, and only looked at Hu Sanniang.

Hu Sanniang had to whisper: "Real person, the war is important, is there no need to rush that assault gun." ”

Lin ran two drops of eye drops and made another cup of coffee, and suddenly there was a strong aroma in the tent.

He took out the mirror and looked at it, and suddenly said, "I think it's still a woman by my side." ”

The generals laughed, and Mu Hong said: "The villain heard that Fang La has a younger sister named Princess Jinzhi, who is like a flower and jade, and she is kept for the adults to take captive. ”

Lin rammed on the table.

"Just kidding. Today, according to the original plan, within ten miles of approaching the Fangxiang army at noon, Ling Cannon must let the artillery enter the Fangxiang military camp. ”

"Subordinates take orders!"

"Yang Zhi, Lu Junyi, today is the time for you to play, the cavalry is scattered, tempted, intercepted, sniped, and probed, so that the Fangxiang army cannot charge in pieces. ”

"Ordered. ”

"The infantry phalanx needs to remain stable, and today we are facing an army of 40,000. Although Hu Yanzhuo will also arrive today, he must put his hope on himself. Crossbowmen each carry two throwing axes, and they do not need to spare arrows, but they have to carry out covering strikes. ”

After arranging, Lin asked the staff what they thought.

Huang Wenbing and Jiang Jing's statement is not new, but Wen Huanzhang mentioned one point, saying that more than 3,000 people were captured yesterday and can be used.

Lin Yan nodded.

"Okay, this matter will be done by Jiang Jing and Zhu Wu, so that they can feel the strength and justice of our army, and believe that Fang La will be defeated and can be used by me. ”

The two took the order and left.

The army marched and marched slowly.

Yang Zhi and Lu Junyi had already led their respective cavalry to rush out and engage with the opponent's forward.

The sky gradually brightened, and the banner of the alchemy army's "only seeking defeat" was particularly conspicuous in the middle.

Lin Chao heard a commotion and asked what was going on.

Huang Wenbing said: "My lord, I am the messenger of Tong Xianggong. ”

Lin Chao was surprised, "What's wrong with his messenger, is he here to ask about the battle situation or does he have a new order?"

Huang Wenbing said: "They refused to say it, so they had to talk to the adults alone, and the lower officials asked someone to tie them up." ”

Lin Lan looked at him, "Isn't this okay?"

"The subordinate ordered someone to steal their seals and arrest them on the grounds that Fang La's spies would not interfere with our army's plans. ”

Lin Chao gave a thumbs up.

"It's worthy of a wasp sting, so let them be quiet and let it go in a few days. ”

It will definitely be troublesome to offend Tong Guan, especially Tong Guan is still a conscript, this time the commander of Fang La, if he stumbles and puts cold arrows in the back, he can't prevent it.

However, Lin Chao was not afraid, he didn't plan to play any tricks like the original Water Margin, sending people to go undercover or fight alone.

Instead, he was upright and used advanced equipment to defeat this group of homeless people.

According to the intelligence, Tong Guan's 20,000 troops did not reach Yingtianfu, and when his 100,000 troops gathered, the siege of Xiuzhou was lifted.

At that time, Lin Chao was probably a different status in Song Huizong's heart.

Ling Zhen had already placed thirty artillery pieces on the soil slope of the engineering camp, and began to use the high and low machines and the direction machine to adjust the muzzles.

One gun is operated by three people, someone looks at the direction, someone turns the rocker, and someone pays attention to the commander's movements.

"Test the gun, round one!"

Boom, boom, three shells streaked through the sky and flew into the distance.

The cavalry of the Alchemy Army had a shield in one hand and a crossbow in the other, galloping all over the field, switching into scimitars from time to time.

The infantry formed a circle, guarding the crossbowmen and artillery in the middle.

The front is about 500 paces behind.

Ling Zhen immediately ordered to raise the muzzle of the cannon again and conduct a second round of gun tests.

......

Fang Xiang ranks third in the Fang family, so he is known as the three kings.

Yesterday, Lu Shisang led 15,000 people to block the Song army, but he was beaten to pieces, and only more than 2,000 people came back.

According to the spies, the Song army captured less than 5,000 people, and most of them fled.

This made Fang Xiang furious, and immediately asked someone to withdraw Lu Shisang and behead it to show the public.

Wei Zhong, the commander of the Sixth Army, pleaded for it, saying: "The name of the enemy this time is the Alchemy Army, which is a new army directly under the jurisdiction of Emperor Dog of the Song Dynasty who personally wrote the name of the army. The commander is known as a real alchemist, with a thousand strange alchemy, and it is rumored that he is an unfathomable old monster. When General Lu encountered it for the first time, he was naturally difficult to defeat. ”

Fang Xiang said: "The right to send you a knife on your neck, and you 5,000 military horses, go out first." I assigned my own generals, and then I came to respond. ”

Lu Shinan complained in his heart, he couldn't move 15,000 yesterday, and 5,000 people were not sent to death today.

However, he still thanked him, draped all over his body, held the spear of the eight snakes, got on the horse to lead the army, and went to battle first.

When he heard the explosion nearby, Lu Shisang thought to himself, you should always know why I was defeated, the alchemy army's cannon can hit a few miles away, and if you hit it, you will die.

And the rain of arrows that don't cost money, even if they rush in front of them, their spears and shields can kill their own cavalry in a few strokes.

What's more, the cavalry didn't come out yesterday, and they all came over today.

These more than 1,000 cavalrymen, everyone has armor, everyone has a shield, a knife and a crossbow, if they can fight, they will fight, if they can't fight, they will shoot while running, and they will not chase or not, there is no way at all.
