Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 376 Xiao Yuchi Reminds the Hook and Sickle Gun
Although his elder brother Sun Li also supports Sun Xin not to give the gun to Hu Yanzhuo, he also hopes that Sun Xin will not make the relationship too rigid. In his opinion, Sun Xin's actions just now are somewhat excessive, so he pointed it out tactfully.

Sun Xin nodded and said: "It's okay, brother, even if it does come then, what can he do to us? We are not from Qingzhou."

"They asked us to trouble us, and we just left. He conquered Liangshan, so he still chased him to Dengzhou? Even if he went to Dengzhou, they would have nothing to do with us on our territory."

Sun Li, who had just said these words, was no longer worried.

In fact, Sun Xin felt that Hu Yanzhuo was unlikely to defeat Liangshan at all. Huyanzhuo's military strength was already at a disadvantage. In the original book, he was suppressed and beaten against Liangshan who was cold-armed, not to mention that Liangshan has developed now. There were some troops using firearms, and it was probably worse.

What Sun Xin and the others should pay close attention to is to properly deploy Dengzhou's defenses.

Back in the tent, Sun Xin called Wu Song, "Are you sure it's okay to mix the sand?"

Wu Song nodded, "I guarantee the information is accurate and timely."

During this period of time, Wu Song has mixed some sand into the army of Qingzhou civilian husbands. These people will follow Hu Yanzhuo to attack Liangshan, plus the spies that were originally sent to Liangshan through Dulonggang. If there is no contact, Sun Xin's staff already has three intelligence channels related to the front line.

He did not take any dangerous actions in this attack on Liangshan, so these intelligence lines should be relatively safe.

In the following time, the entire Qingzhou Mansion was in a panic. Everyone was very worried about the news from the front line, but the information was delivered very slowly.

The Qingzhou government had the most accurate information about the news ahead, but it was Sun Xin’s camp outside the city. The intelligence transmission system established by the Supervisory Committee was much more efficient than all other systems in this time and space. Basically, what Sun Xin got here It would take at least half a day for Murong Yanda to know the news from the front line.

After Hu Yanzhuo's army came to Yunzhou, they chose to camp five miles away from Liangshanbo, and borrowed a lot of supplies from Dulonggang.

The Supervisory Committee at Dulonggang had been prepared for a long time, and it was easy to provide the supply. Even relying on this relationship, the Dulonggang Supervisory Committee developed another intelligence line in Hu Yanzhuo's team.

It took Hu Yanzhuo and the others seven days to slowly gather the troops and set up a battle at the foot of Mount Liang.

And Liangshan did not choose to live in the water village. The terrain of the island in the middle of the lake is too narrow. Once someone boards it, there is no escape. The only way to escape is to give up his hometown. So, just like the original novel, Song Jiang chooses to cross the lake. Fight Hu Yanzhuo in Jinshatan.

In the first battle, Peng Qi led the troops as the vanguard to make small-scale contact with Liangshan's team. As a result, Peng Qi rushed forward and led the entire team directly to be captured by the vanguard led by Lin Chong.

Hu Yanzhuo didn't seem to have expected that Liangshan's team would be so powerful. The formation was an offensive formation. As a result, Peng Qi's loss shook his own formation. Fortunately, the camp was stable enough, so the member group chose to announce The team retreats.

At this time, the trebuchet troops that were originally in the center of the position did not retreat in time because of the heavy vehicles. Ling Zhen was reluctant to leave his offensive equipment in the wilderness, so he walked a little slower. As a result, he was also killed along with him. Captured.

The only ones who made a record were the militiamen in Zengtou City. This team took the initiative to act as a cover when everyone retreated, and it actually slowed down the pace of the Liangshan vanguard's attack.

However, according to Wu Song's information, it is very likely that Lin Chong slowed down his attack when he heard the gunshots of Zengtou militiamen and thought it was the arrival of the protection army. Successfully retreated without losing many soldiers and horses.

Although the soldiers and horses did not suffer much losses, Hu Yanzhuo was still ashamed after returning. A total of four generals were arrested in the first battle, which directly made him stick to the camp and dare not fight again.

When the news came back, the already fluctuating people in Qingzhou City became even more flustered.

Even the Baihu Mountain outside the city responded. Kong Liang wrote another letter to the city to ask for a loan. He was also encouraged by Liangshan's victory.

Murong Yanda nervously asked Sun Xin and the others to go to the city for a meeting. The main issue discussed was not how to defend, but to discuss the military ahead remotely.

There was a lot of discussion about why Hu Yanzhuo no longer entered the army, Sun Xin thought for a while and came up with a guess: "It should be that General Hu Yan is preparing heavy cavalry. Intended to be used at critical moments."

A word awakened the dreamer, Shi Wanchong thought for a while and nodded again and again, "General Huyan's serial horse is indeed a rare and good cavalry in the world. If you use this serial horse to attack Liangshan bandits, it will definitely achieve miraculous results."

This speculation greatly boosted everyone's confidence. They were all demoralized by the defeat in the first battle, and almost forgot that Hu Yanzhuo's big killer hadn't been used yet.

At this time, Sun Xin took the initiative to say to Murong Yanda: "I heard that although this serial horse is powerful, the horse's legs are not protected by armor. Beware of Liangshan bandits using weapons to chop the horse's legs."

He reminded: "There is a military weapon called a hook and sickle gun on the Hebei Road. Cutting off a horse's leg is the most effective way to destroy heavy cavalry. Please also ask the prefect to remind General Huyan to take precautions as soon as possible."

"The hook and sickle gun is really so powerful?"

Murong Yanda looked at Sun Xin, and then at Shi Wanchong, motioning to ask.

After thinking for a while, Shi Wanchong nodded and said, "I've also heard that there is such a line of military weapons in Hebei, but it will make very few people, and the number of people who can practice hook and sickle spearmen is even more limited. They are specially used to deal with them in Xixia. Iron Buddha."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, Murong Yanda even took a look at Sun Xingao, and said bluntly: "Oh, how would we know this if Sun Zhuangzhu hadn't told us?"

"I just heard people talk about it when I was a military household, and I have never seen what the hook gun looks like. I would like to ask the prefect to remind General Huyan clearly."

Murong Yanda couldn't help nodding. He was even more satisfied with Sun Xin's modesty, "I'll write it when I get back."

Sun Xin wondered whether Hu Yanzhuo would be able to use the hook and sickle gun in this time and space, but in his opinion, even without the hook and sickle gun, Liangshan's army was unlikely to be defeated by Huyan Zhuo. With an army of [-], Hu Yanzhuo's [-] serial horses could be wiped out by consumption alone. It was nothing more than Liang Shan in the original book not wanting to lose such a large manpower.

As for the golden gunner Xu Ning and his hooked sickle spear, although they are of certain importance, since the people on Liangshan have thought of cutting horse legs, even if there is no such efficient weapon as the hooked spear Things like that can be figured out after some people die, and Hu Yanzhuo's heavy cavalry charge will still be unable to fight.

The crux of the problem is that Liangshan has a favorable location, some people have food, and Hu Yanzhuo has too few soldiers and horses, it is impossible to directly level Liangshan.

However, Sun Xin didn't intend to participate. It was good enough for him to remind Hu Yanzhuo, and let him ask for the rest.

For Sun Xin, the key to the current problem is to defend Qingzhou City well. Once the situation changes, he must be able to send troops from Qingzhou to take Liangshan directly in time.
