Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 847 Enemy Chaos
"The progress is a bit slow. It's been a while, and we have just hit the opponent's position." Ran Zhan on the hillside was a little anxious. He looked at the movement below, looking eager to try.

The subordinate Gao Bing knew the temperament of his coach very well. He knew that this man's hands were itchy and he wanted to go into battle himself. He did not stop him. He just said: "Captain, if you want to lead the army to fight, you have to wait until these Xianbei troops are defeated." Only human archers can do it, otherwise they will be brave and useless if they can’t get close.”

"Of course I understand this." Ran Zhan frowned, and said impatiently: "The problem is that my movements are so slow, and I may be compared to others for meritorious deeds after the fact. A lot of soldiers and horses are coming, the lord will lead an army, and I will also lead an army to ambush here, but there are two other troops ready, don't be compared to others."

"Beware of arrogance and impetuosity," Gao Bing said calmly, and finally used an admonishing tone. After all, the two of them can be said to be both prosperous and destructive. The one who wants Ran Zhan to make meritorious deeds the most is Gao Bing, "As long as you keep calm. , seize the opportunity, you will definitely succeed. After all, what Chen Gong asked you to do is to repel these reinforcements, weaken them as much as possible, and make their military formation chaotic. As long as you achieve this step, you will have credit. As for what happens after that Pursuit is optional.”

"It's easy to say," Ran Zhan frowned, then took the reins and walked down, because he could see that the arrow array shooting on both sides was about to end, and the next step was to fight with real swords and guns. , "Speaking of which, the single-shooter cannon in their army did cause me a lot of trouble. Although there is only one, it is also a deterrent. If it is fired in one direction, the bow and arrow offensive in that area will be significantly slowed down. .”

Thinking like this, his eyes swept across a forest full of fire. It was the area that was focused on by the opponent's single-shooter cannon. It already looked a bit messy. Fortunately, Daijun Wuding was already skilled in drills and had been specially trained. How to deal with a single-shooter artillery fire attack? Even for this ambush, at Chen Zhi's request, some ditches were dug slightly and covered with sand and stones as bunkers. So it looked like a mess, but in fact there were not many injured people. many.

Even so, Ran Zhan was still very annoyed, feeling that his record had been affected. When he turned his gaze, he fell on the single-tipped cannon that was bouncing in the enemy's formation.

From his angle, he couldn't see the entirety of the enemy's single-shot cannon, but he could still get a rough look at its outline, and found that its shape was quite twisted and weird, and it was somewhat different from his own single-shot cannon. , but the effect is good.

"This group of people must have stolen some of the structure and shape of the single-shooter cannon through spies and careful work, and then went back and tried to assemble it. It seems that it will not last long and will break sooner or later!"

Although he murmured in his heart, he also understood that this pirated and imitated single-shooter cannon was definitely not as good as the genuine one and the quality was not good enough. Sooner or later, it would break. However, Ran Zhan also knew that this thing would not break for a while. In fact, his It is difficult for soldiers to further attack and compress the enemy's space. It is definitely not a mere deterrent with a single cannon.

In fact, in the past two months, the Secret Service has received enough intelligence and learned that surrounding forces have imitated single-shooter cannons, so it has increased pressure drills. To put it simply, it is to simulate encounters through firecrackers. How to deal with single shot cannon.

Often a burning firecracker is thrown next to the queue to let the soldiers get used to it. The key lies in the mentality. Even if you cannot be fearless, as long as you can not panic, the queue will still be controllable.

Therefore, the influence of the single-shoot cannon is limited. What really restricts the soldiers and horses is the combat quality of the soldiers and horses of Duan Pidun's headquarters. After all, they are not comparable to those of the refugee army. Many deficiencies.

Frowning his brows, Ran Zhan was thinking about a way to break the situation. Suddenly, in his sight, the awkward-looking knock-off single-tip cannon suddenly shook, and then collapsed suddenly. Then, underneath the knock-off single-tip cannon, even more A series of fire broke out!
"What's the matter?"

Ran Zhan's mind suddenly became confused, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, muttering in his heart.

"This thing is really broken. How lucky am I?" Just now I was thinking that this thing looked like a low-quality counterfeit at first glance. It couldn't be used for a long time and would be destroyed sooner or later. But it broke down in the blink of an eye. This was too much of a coincidence.

Just when he was in shock and doubt, he suddenly saw that the place where the single-shot cannon was originally was suddenly in chaos. Many soldiers and horses gathered around, and the fire there continued to spread, and even began to spread in other directions, and even Quickly approaching the archers who were drawing their bows and shooting arrows, he immediately woke up.

"In this case, it doesn't look like it was broken by myself. Could it be that it's an insider?"

Ran Zhan knew that the Secret Intelligence Department had developed many informants, many of whom had infiltrated the Youzhou Army, and that Chen Zhi also had a mysterious information system. Could it be that these people were helping?

But he soon came to his senses. Regardless of whether someone was acting as an internal response or not, now was an opportunity, so he no longer hesitated, raised his riding whip, and moved forward quickly, and at the same time gave the order to charge!
dong dong dong dong!
In the forest, drumming sounded.

"Come on!"

The next moment, many voices came and went. A row of shield soldiers rushed out from the side of the archers, followed by many infantry. They rushed out of the forest in such a mighty manner and directly attacked the Xianbei army in the middle of the road!
"What's going on? What's going on with the single-shot cannon?" Duan Pixi, who was riding on a war horse in the Xianbei headquarters, pulled the reins, came to the ear of an adjutant, and roared directly. He raised his whip, Pointing in the direction of the single-shooter cannon, you can vaguely see billowing smoke rising.

The deputy general also had a look of shock on his face. He turned around and yelled at a subordinate officer beside him: "Why don't we go over and find out more!"

When the order came down from him, the subordinate officer didn't dare to delay at all. He turned around and ran away. He was so fast that he didn't waste any physical strength and went straight to where the single-shot cannon was.

But before he got to the place, he saw the flames and heard screams, but the frames containing the few torches had already burned, and the torches were already flammable and thick The smoke was scattered, and there were even more barbed caltrops scattered in all directions. Amid the crackling sound, the barbed caltrops flew out one after another, injuring many surrounding soldiers who were trying to fight the fire.

At this time, there happened to be a group of six or seven soldiers running over from the opposite side. They were caught by the subordinate officer and asked why.

"Shangguan, a group of thieves came from nowhere. They broke the cannon and lit the fire. We can't save them. We are about to report to the commander!"

"It's unreasonable. There is such a thing. You go and report it first!" When the subordinate officer heard this, he was shocked and went to learn more about it and asked the small team to report it.

As soon as they left, the leader of the team laughed and praised: "Chen Wu's plan is good! Come on, let's go report it!" This person was clearly that Li Tou!
