Chapter 216

Lin Cunde stood there with his subordinates, while Shi Heng and Xu Xianyong stood aside and said nothing.

Lin Cunde first asked the commander of the Shenji Battalion if he could bury the cannon barrel in a quarter of an hour. The diameter of the cannon barrel was less than two feet and the height was less than four feet. It was enough to place it diagonally and dig less than three feet.

"Okay, there is no problem with the Shenji Battalion! Three Thousand Battalion, you charge. Each soldier only needs to get a grenade. You can throw it away after about 70 steps. The enemy's heavy armor also needs to be charged. Commander, you have to let me Good rhythm and distance, don't blow up your own people!" Lin Cunde said to the commander of the Three Thousand Battalion.

"Don't worry, sir. We have rehearsed many times and there will be absolutely no problem!" The commander of the Shenji Battalion said to Lin Cunde with confidence.

"The cavalry of the five military camps, five grenades per day. Once the three thousand battalions block the Oala heavy armored cavalry, you can throw grenades behind and blow them up for me. After breaking the heavy armored cavalry, use crossbows to kill them for me. These are also We need commanders like you, Qianhu to instruct their subordinates, especially Baihu and General Banner, to let them control it. After all, in war, each area is different. Whether to throw it or not depends on the soldiers below. We must emphasize not to hurt. Go to your own people!" Lin Cunde looked at the cavalry commander of the fifth military camp and the thousands of households.

"Don't worry, sir. We have practiced it many times, and the soldiers all know its power!" All five commanders said with their hands raised to Lin Cunde.

"Well, the infantry is behind. Each infantryman carries a grenade. The rest are crossbows and weapons. This is the cavalry that was finally broken through by the enemy. It is used when they want to attack us. Now, we are discussing two combat plans. !" Lin Cunde nodded and said to the infantry commanders and Qianhu.

All those thousands of households nodded.

"The first plan is for Wala to hedge against us. This is the best. Our combat subordinates here are that the heavy armored cavalry is in front, and the light cavalry waits for the heavy armored cavalry to charge for a certain distance before starting to charge. From the back, follow the previous plan. However, when the Wa's heavy armored cavalry is about 400 steps away from our Shenji battalion's position, the Shenji battalion needs to light the artillery, fire it, and strive for one round to disrupt the charge of the Wa'a's heavy armored cavalry and prepare for our heavy armored cavalry. The armored cavalry charges to clear the way!

In short, you must use the fastest speed and fire more explosive packets. When you stop, I will also raise the flag and stop shooting when I see the flag! Remember? Lin Cunde said and looked at the generals in the Shenji Camp.

"Yes, sir, I understand!" The officers from the Shenji Battalion immediately handed over their hands.

"Okay, this is the first combat plan subordinate! The second operational plan subordinate is that Wala Bu is against us. They used heavy armored cavalry to stop our cavalry. At this time, our Shenji Battalion is of little use. , after all, you can't outrun the horses, so you need the heavy armored cavalry to throw grenades in front of the heavy armored cavalry that charges towards Wala. Our heavy armored cavalry is not as many as Wala's, so we can probably kill some of them.

The next step is to stop the heavy armored cavalry and let the light cavalry behind us rush up and continue to explode with grenades. In this way, our army's casualties are expected to be huge, and the Oara's light cavalry may have a better chance of retreating. In this case , General Xu’s cavalry is needed to stop them as soon as possible.

However, I believe that even so, many of Wala's cavalry will still escape. Therefore, I require all light cavalry to carry three days of dry food and enough water. Once a fight starts, they must pursue me as hard as possible. Kill them more often.

As long as we kill more of them, there will be no major battles in the north and the soldiers will be safe! "Lin Cunde began to talk about his second battle plan.

The generals all nodded, with excitement in their eyes.

Shi Heng and Xu Xianyong didn't understand at all, especially Shi Heng. Aren't these soldiers afraid of death? Do they just believe in Lin Cunde? Still thinking about using cannons to blow up heavy armored cavalry, how is that possible? The Ming Dynasty's artillery is all solid, and they kill people by smashing them, not by blowing them up.

What Xu Xianyong wondered was why his subordinates trusted Lin Cunde so much without any doubt!

Lin Cunde had never commanded a battle. How could he let his subordinates trust him so much?

Many of those generals have fought in battles. They must be more familiar with the battlefield than themselves. They are not afraid of death. So is it unreasonable for me to worry?

Lin Cunde then continued to discuss with those generals, asking those generals to tell them what they did not understand or if they had anything to add.

Those generals also started to talk about their opinions and tactics. If Lin Cunde felt it made sense, he would immediately order the tactics to be fought. If it didn't make sense, Lin Cunde would also veto it and give reasons.

This meeting lasted for almost an hour, and it was almost midnight. Lin Cunde also asked those generals to go back.

Soon, only Shi Heng, Xu Xianyong and Lin Cunde were left in the Zhongjun tent.

Lin Cunde sat down and started eating with some food. He was a little hungry.

"How sure are you about tomorrow?" Shi Heng couldn't help but ask.

"Let's open it five to five!" Lin Cunde said with a smile.

When Shi Heng heard this, he sneered inwardly, but he didn't say anything. The order had already been given. Anyway, he had already tried to persuade him, so he stopped trying.

"You should also rest early, there will be a fierce battle tomorrow!" Lin Cunde looked up at them and said.

Everything that needs to be said about the plan has been said.

The two nodded to Lin Cunde, turned around and went out.

Lin Cunli saw that they were all gone and came in holding the handle of the knife.

"Fourth brother, get some rest early tonight, there will be a big battle tomorrow!" Lin Cunde said to Lin Cunli.

"Okay!" Lin Cunli nodded. So many generals came in just now, and Lin Cunli also understood.

The next day, Lin Cunde heard something moving outside and woke up. After getting up, Lin Cunli also came in. Lin Cunde looked at Lin Cunli with a smile and asked, "Fourth brother, are you awake?"

"Sleep for a while! I'll put on the armor for you!" Lin Cunli said to Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde just took off his outer armor, but he still wore soft armor. He was not used to sleeping at first, but this is a battlefield, and anything can happen. He took off his outer armor because he was inside the city gate. If it was Outside, Lin Cunde did not dare to take off the armor outside.

Including Lin Cunli, they would only take off their armor when taking a shower. After taking a shower, they would continue to put on their armor. And on the battlefield, there were not many opportunities to take a shower, even in the summer. The most they could do was rinse with water, or Wipe it with a damp towel.

Lin Cunde stood there and let Lin Cunli put on armor with a guard.

After putting on his armor, Lin Cunde arrived at the central military tent. At this moment, Xu Xianyong had already gone to the Star Gate. He was going to lead 10,000 cavalry out of the Star Gate.

And Shi Heng, Xiang Qing and Yang Xiangzheng were already waiting for Lin Cunde. Lin Cunde looked outside, but it was still dark.

"How are you preparing?" Lin Cunde asked.

"My lord, the soldiers are having a meal now. This morning, each person has three taels of meat!" Xiang Qing said with his hands raised to Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde nodded and said hello.

Then we arrived at the table. At this moment, steamed buns, porridge, and a bowl of broth were already placed on the table.

Lin Cunde sat there with the steamed buns and started to eat. Then, holding the porridge in one hand and three steamed buns in the other, he left the Chinese military tent and went to the edge of the city wall. He looked over at Wala and found that there were also people in Wala. I guess I heard some movement on the city wall, so I made some preparations in advance.

"The heavy armored cavalry on the Oala side haven't moved yet. The light cavalry probably heard the movement on our side and there is movement too. I wonder if they know something!" Yang Xiang was standing next to Lin Cunde and talking to Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde said nothing, eating the steamed buns and staring into the distance.

Shi Heng stood aside and said nothing.

After Lin Cunde finished eating, he looked at the sky. It was cloudless. Even if it rained today, it would probably be noon. However, looking at the weather and Lin Cunde, he asked Lin Cunli to ask some soldiers who knew how to read the weather. They all said, No rain today.

As long as there is no rain, Lin Cunde is not worried.

Then Lin Cunde walked towards the inner city wall and looked at the soldiers below, all sitting on the ground with a large bowl full of rice with meat on top.

The war horses were also eating fodder.

Lin Cunde nodded, returned to the Zhongjun tent with the bowl, and took three more steamed buns.

Lin Cunde can now eat seven steamed buns in one meal, and he can also drink two bowls of porridge and a bowl of broth.

Shi Heng and the others had finished eating long ago, so now they were all waiting for Lin Cunde.

In fact, we not only had to wait for Lin Cunde, but also had to wait for the soldiers to finish eating. After eating, they also needed to organize the team and set off from Shanhaiguan.

After Lin Cunde finished eating, the guards immediately cleared away the bowl.

Lin Cunde hung up his sword and picked up his spear at the same time. Lin Cunde and the guards practiced martial arts, and the horse fighting used spears.

Lin Cunli hung up the quiver for Lin Cunde, which contained thirty arrows.

Lin Cunde held a spear in one hand and a crossbow in the other. He arrived at the inner city wall and watched the soldiers forming their team below.

Neither Shi Heng nor the others said a word.

The war is coming, it’s useless to say anything else!

Lin Cunde stood on the city wall and watched.

It was already three quarters of an hour later when the commander below came up to report that the army was ready.

Lin Cunde turned to Shi Heng and Yang Zhengxiang and said, "Shanhai Pass depends on you!"

"Congratulations, sir. I wish you success!" Yang Xiangzheng immediately knelt down and raised his hands to Lin Cunde.

"May your Lord be victorious!" Shi Heng also said with his hands raised to Lin Cunde.

"Okay!" Lin Cunde glanced at Yang Xiangzheng thoughtfully, then turned around, took his guards and soldiers, and got off the city wall.

The soldiers below who were about to go on an expedition were all waiting for Lin Cunde under the stairs.

"Greetings, General!" The generals all knelt down on one knee and raised their hands to Lin Cunde.

"Please get up, brothers, it's time for a bloody battle. I won't say any more. Brothers, I wish you good news!" Lin Cunde stood there and waved his hand.

"Yes!" So all the generals stood up.

"Return to the team and leave the city as planned!" Lin Cunde shouted to the generals.

"Yes!" All the generals bowed their hands to Lin Cunde, then turned around, got on their horses, and started heading towards their own armies.

Lin Cunde also got on his horse. Lin Cunde needed to see the armored cavalry and cavalry out before setting off.

The army came out from the four city gates of Shanhaiguan!
