Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 510 Xiao Feiyu returns

The first time the cannon appeared, the whole house was filled with excitement.

The terrifying destructive power is so terrifying that even Xu Ning and others are fierce men who have spent most of their lives on the battlefield.

At this moment, I was scared to death.

Zhao Kang was also very satisfied, with a smile on his face as he looked at the collapsed city wall.

The city walls in Yuanjiang County are all made of specially fired green bricks, cement ash, waxy iron and iron juice.

Even if it is not as good as the city walls cast with reinforced concrete in later generations, it can be said to be extremely strong.

Even so, it was still destroyed by the cannon after forty rounds, not to mention that Jing Guo looked strong.

In fact, most of them are city walls made of loess bricks.

Did you notice that no one was doing anything for a long time?

Zhao Kang turned back to look at Yu Chenggong and said with a smile: "General Yu? What are you waiting for? The enemy troops in the city are probably scared out of their wits now."

Only then did Yu Chenggong react. He was so frightened that he forgot how to mobilize his troops for a while.

It was Xu Ning who came to his senses first and said immediately: "The whole army goes out to kill the enemy invaders!"

"kill!"

Jingguo soldiers rushed towards the blasted passage.

Naturally, Xu Ning did not need to charge into the battle. He turned around and walked quickly to Zhao Kang, holding the latter's hand: "National Preceptor!"

"Mr. Xu." Zhao Kang smiled.

Xu Ning was extremely excited: "National Master! You must promise me that this cannon will never be used against our Jingguo in the future!"

Xu Ning was a little scared. Although he had heard Zhao Kang mention the power of cannon countless times before, Xu Ning also knew that Zhao Kang was not an ordinary person.

But there was still some murmuring in my heart.

Now that he had truly seen the power of the cannon, Xu Ning had to admit that he was really scared.

If one day there is a conflict between Jingguo and Qianguo, and the people of Qianguo come over with this cannon, then who can resist?
Can people still have a strong city?

No one has heard that the whole country of Qian State is currently casting these cannons. In addition to these ten and the five that are about to be delivered, Qian State still has twenty or thirty cannons.

There will only be more and more in the future!
Zhao Kang: "What did Mr. Xu say? If Zhao Kang had this intention, why would he send this cannon to Jingguo?"

Zhao Kang smiled without caring, he knew what Xu Ning was worried about.

With such a terrifying weapon, people like Xu Ning who serve the country and the people will naturally feel worried for Jing Guo after seeing its power.

Xu Ning's eyes were surprised, and then he said even more excitedly: "What the Imperial Master means is that this cannon was sent to our Jingguo?"

Zhao Kang looked at Ye Hongxue beside him and smiled: "Of course, I have promised Hongxue a long time ago that no matter what good things Qian Guo has in the future, I will give part of them to Jing Guo. These are my betrothal gifts!"

The woman was deeply moved and held Zhao Kang's hand tightly. Xu Ning laughed loudly: "Okay, okay! Our Jingguo did not recognize you as our son-in-law in vain."

"What are you talking about, old general?" Ye Hongxue couldn't laugh or cry.

Xu Ning pretended to be confused: "Master Ye, the Imperial Master has sent all the betrothal gifts. Does Master Ye still want to return?"

"That's right! Mr. Xu, you have to make the decision for me when the time comes!" Zhao Kang added with jealousy.

Her cheeks were flushed, and although Ye Hongxue was a little shy, her heart was extremely sweet.

With the help of artillery, attacking a city is naturally extremely simple.

The enemy troops in the city had no time to resist, and Yu Chenggong and Chen Maokai led their troops to rush in and kill them all.The two generals had a great time today. After they came out, they reported the results of the battle and kept glancing at the cannons. It was obvious that their hands were itchy and they wanted to enjoy themselves by firing a few cannons.

When everyone came to the military camp, everyone was very happy.

Zhao Kang said: "The next step is to persuade them to surrender."

Xu Ning ordered: "Cut off the heads of all the enemy troops defeated today, and let these damn barbarians take a good look at what will happen if they invade our great scene."

On the battlefield, the best way to frighten the enemy is to build a Jingguan.

Thousands of human heads placed on top can scare people to death.

Chen Maokai clasped his fists and said: "I obey!"

Yu Chenggong said excitedly: "With the cannon of the Imperial Guard, we will be able to regain all the lost territory in a short time!"

Zhao Kang shook his head and said, "Don't be too optimistic and careless."

Chen Maokai was suspicious: "National Master, this cannon is so powerful, how can anyone resist it?"

Zhao Kangdao: "Having said that, the cannon has its flaws. First, the cannon is bulky and slow to move. Second, its effective range is within [-] steps. It cannot be accurate beyond this range."

"The speed is slow, so cannons are more afraid of cavalry charges, so when using cannons, you must build a condescending cannon position."

"It's not a problem to have a thousand artillery troops operating the cannon, but you can't rely on the cannons with all your hopes. The force is unpredictable and the water is unpredictable. You should know this better than me."

Xu Ning nodded and sighed: "If most people had a cannon, they would have regarded all the heroes in the world as bandits, but you are still able to be cautious and cautious. We all need to learn a lot from you."

"Xu Gong was so complimentary."

Zhao Kang said modestly and said with a smile: "When our country of Qian develops hand cannons and matchlock guns, we will really be invincible in the world."

Chen Maokai asked with interest: "The national teacher said that Qianguo has other weapons similar to artillery?"

"We are working on ways to develop these things that can be called firearms."

Zhao Kang explained: "Now the battlefield is a confrontation of cold weapons. The emergence of firearms is epoch-making and will change the pattern of the battlefield. It will not be too late."

Although everyone couldn't quite understand it, they were greatly shocked.

Zhao Kang added: "The leader behind this group of Jin soldiers is Xiao Feiyu. This guy is very scheming and has great cultivation. As his opponent, we must not be careless."

Xu Ning nodded: "The National Preceptor is right. Before the enemy can react, we must speed up the process and reduce the enemy's range of activities."

Everyone responded with confidence.

With the deterrence of artillery, Xu Ning began to send people to persuade them to surrender. The besieged enemy troops were now without water and food, and they panicked.

Xu Ning sent people to build a deterrent in Jingguo, and after getting the guarantee from the people of Jingguo that they would not kill the prisoners.

Immediately, many enemy troops chose to surrender and no longer resisted stubbornly. This made Helian Wei, who was sitting at the rear, almost to death.

Seeing Jing Guo's unstoppable victory over one city after another, Helianwei gathered his army and prepared to fight Xu Ning to the death, when a letter was delivered to him.

The person who delivered the letter was the supervisor of the Jin Army. Helianwei was extremely excited when he saw the contents of the letter.

"King Pingbei is back!"

The supervisor nodded and said: "Next, the prince will personally command the entire army!"

Helianwei said excitedly: "Great, damn Jingguo people, just wait for me this time!"
