Borrow the day to change the day

Sun Chengzong was disappointed by the result of persuading the surrender. The envoy was shot back by the guard Li Jiquan, obviously refusing to surrender.

Seeing that Luanzhou City was so stubborn, Sun Chengzong didn't say much. He led the generals to the artillery camp and ordered the artillery to attack the city.

After the Portuguese mercenary leader Gonzasha received the order, he began to test the distance.Sun Chengzong saw that he was busy, so he directly asked him the best range of the Hongyi cannon, then stretched out his hand and gestured, and directly told Gonsa to move forward another fifty steps.

Gonzawa was very envious of the Ming army's convenient operation method. He knew it was taught by the young supervisor, and wanted to ask Sun Chengzong for advice, but he was afraid of his majesty.In the end, he had no choice but to set up artillery positions first, thinking that he would ask the supervisor for advice after the battle was over.After all, they are all from overseas, so it should be easier to talk.

The Ming army deliberately let the defenders on the top of the city see that they were arranging Hongyi cannons. After choosing a position, the Hongyi cannons were opened one by one.White pole troops were deployed on both sides of the front of the formation to defend against the possibility that the defenders of Luanzhou might take counterattacks out of the city.

The defenders on the top of the city watched helplessly as the Ming army calmly deployed artillery outside the city, but there was nothing they could do.

They seemed to see Black and White Wuchang approaching them with a grinning grin, but they couldn't be turbulent, and fear slowly surged from the bottom of their hearts.

Li Jiquan looked at the appearance of the soldiers guarding the city who were about to collapse, and he had an idea, and ordered his cronies to go and shout: "Brothers, don't worry, it's not that we don't know the quality of the Ming army's artillery. One shot will blow up one door. Cannons are fancy but not useful, don't worry, brothers..."

Li Jiquan's confidants shouted again and again, which restored the confidence of many soldiers.Mango Live Network w w.mgzhibo .co After all, the Ming army is famous for its poor quality of firearms.

But they didn't notice that Li Jiquan himself quietly moved away from the section of the city wall facing the cannon.

Just kidding, the one who operated the Hongyi cannon was a Westerner, so it goes without saying where the cannon came from.Now it is up to God to bless the artillery of the Westerners to explode in order to defend Luanzhou, but the chances of this are really not high.Mango Live Network w w.mgzhibo .co

While praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, he went to arrange a reserve team to fill the gap after the bombardment.

After receiving Sun Chengzong's order to fire, Gonza returned to the artillery camp and ordered to fire.

He has always asked himself to perform well, which would make his subordinates make some low-level mistakes, so he is full of confidence in the effect of the shelling.

After hearing the "boom boom boom" sound of the earthquake cannon, a solid iron egg smashed into the city wall of Luanzhou in an instant.

About one tenth of the shells missed the city wall, and the rest hit the city head.It hit the top of the city so that dust flew up, and with the screams, the top of the city wall collapsed.

The shells began to extend along the collapsed city wall to both sides, widening the gap.After all, Luanzhou is not a big city or a heavy city, so this quality really can't withstand the bombardment of Hongyi cannons.

Qin Liangyu watched the gap in the city wall slowly widening, and sighed inwardly, the world of firearms must be in the future.My army still generally uses cold weapons. Although it can last for a while, it won't last long. Should I find a way to replace some of the firearms first?

For a Qin Liangyu who prides herself on her tyrannical force, she and Lu Xiangsheng were both born at the wrong time. With firearms, one can imagine who will practice martial arts hard in the future!

The main force of King Qin's army captured Luanzhou City effortlessly. Zhang Wenxiu, the former Luanzhou co-prefect, set fire to his home and died. Li Jiquan, the former defender, was killed by his subordinates and surrendered to King Qin's army.

"Death is more important than Mount Tai, and some are lighter than a feather. These two people have forgotten their ancestors. They not only corrupted the law, killed their colleagues, but also took refuge in the barbarians. How can they see their ancestors underground after death. I hope you take this as a warning and don't follow the path of these two people ” Sun Chengzong did not enter Luanzhou City, but after setting up a Chinese army tent outside the city, he trained the generals in the tent.

"The last general will remember it carefully, and dare not forget it." All the generals in the tent replied in unison.

"To appease Luanzhou today, and send troops to Yongping early tomorrow morning." Sun Chengzong ordered.

"As ordered!"

Besides, Zhong Jinwei and his party, on the way to the north, kept discovering villages that had been massacred by Jianlu.

One thing these villages have in common is that there are no living things, not only no living people, but even chickens, ducks and dogs.The houses were either burned or robbed, and even the pots on the pots were not spared. <Heaven has come, if these corpses are exposed to the wild, there may be a plague. This is not only known by Zhong Jinwei from later generations, but also by the ancients.

When it was almost evening, they got off the official road and set up camp at a leeward place at the foot of a mountain, preparing to rest for a night before setting off.

Everyone was in a bad mood, so they were doing their own things silently, and no one made a sound.

Suddenly someone noticed something was wrong, the ground vibrated faintly, and then the sound became louder and louder, it was a large cavalry army.

Fortunately, they hadn't lit a fire to cook, and they were at the lee of the foot of the mountain, separated from the main road where the cavalry army was located.

Before distinguishing between the enemy and the enemy, Zhong Jinwei ordered everyone to hide and prepare to fight.Then he took several generals to the side of the mountain, hiding in the dark and watching the cavalry coming along the road.

This cavalry army marched faster at night, holding torches and rushing forward.

Lu Xiangsheng was beside Zhong Jinwei. He said softly to Zhong Jinwei, "It's the Jian captives. It seems that there are about two thousand people. We can't deal with them."

Before Zhong Jinwei could see clearly, he turned around to look at Lu Xiangsheng after hearing what Lu Xiangsheng said.

Lu Xiangsheng understood what Zhong Jinwei meant by turning around, but he didn't understand why he said that, so he explained in a low voice: "None of the generals in the Beilu Qinwang Army dared to lead 2000 people marching with torches at night. In addition, this cavalry The horsemanship of the army is proficient, and it is not comparable to the cavalry army in the pass."

Zhong Jinwei felt that what Lu Xiangsheng said was reasonable, so he sent another order to check the horse's condition and not let it make a sound.

The cavalry came closer and saw that it was indeed Jianlu.All of them, under the light of torches, rode on their way with their heads down.

Fortunately, Jianlu was not familiar with the road conditions, so he only dared to march along the official road at night, and because he was in a hurry, he did not find a Ming army on the other side of the mountain.

It wasn't until the Jianlu cavalry army crossed the foot of the mountain and left them that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he wished to avenge the villagers who died so innocently, it was a sign of a sick mind to meet Jian captives twice as many as himself in the wild and want to rush up to kill them.

Zhang Fengyi suddenly said: "Where did these Jian captives come from and where are they going? Why are they in such a hurry that they need to travel overnight?"

Like Zhong Jinwei, Zhang Fengyi is not familiar with the terrain here, so I asked this question.

Yan Yingyuan is from Tongzhou and is familiar with the capital. He pondered for a while and replied to Zhang Fengyi: "These Jian prisoners are probably stationed in Zunhua. Look at this, I'm afraid they will return to Yongping."

Lu Xiangsheng is also a person who is relatively familiar with the capital. After hearing Yan Yingyuan's explanation, he was a little puzzled and asked, "If you come from the Zunhua line, should you take the official road further north?"

"Could it be that we met the North Route Army?" Zhong Jinwei suddenly offered an explanation.

"It's possible that the North Route Army went to attack Qian'an and cut off the way back to Yongping from Zunhua, so the Jian captives came here instead." That's all Lu Xiangsheng explained.

"Then let's go around this mountain tomorrow and go to the north to have a look." Zhong Jinwei said.

According to Zhong Jinwei's explanation, the march of the North Route Army should have no more ink marks, but speeded up.

As for the reason, we will only know when we see the North Route Army.

So Zhong Jinwei and the others returned to the camp, announcing that no fire should be made, and that they would deal with it overnight with dry food.

As soon as he ate the dry food, Zhong Jinwei remembered that he had forgotten about making some delicious dried fish, or called fish floss, last time.

He told his thoughts to the few people present, and asked them to remember to remind themselves to discuss this matter with the imperial chef after returning to the capital.

While agreeing, Lu Xiangsheng was quite curious, wondering what else Zhongxing Hou would know.

Nothing happened overnight, and early the next morning, they set off early and headed north.

When they reached a certain area, they didn't know that there were several pairs of eyes watching their army marching in the dark.

After seeing Zhong Jinwei's flag, one of them cried out: "Marquis Zhongxing!"
