Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 191 Three Hundred Cannons, Waiting for You to Die
Fifteen minutes later.

The basement warehouse in the backyard of Piaoxiang Building has been almost moved.

All the guests and dancers in Piaoxianglou were driven out.

Zhang Changfeng brought his men to search the basement warehouse and then came to Chen Jie.

He took out a book that looked extremely ancient, took a deep breath and said:
"Sir, I found a martial arts secret book called "The Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training" in a small compartment in the warehouse!"

"I checked it carefully, it should be the real one!"

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the martial arts secret book that Yan Hu, the leader of the Axe Gang, gave to the Taiping!"

"This martial arts secret book has detailed annotations, but it is quite difficult to practice it."

finished,

He handed the martial arts secret book "The Thirteen Guardians' Horizontal Training" to Chen Jie with both hands.

In the eyes of all the core elites of Ximen Hall, the persona that Chen Jie has created for himself is that of a martial arts fanatic.

He is very obsessed with practicing any martial arts.

Although he did not practice many martial arts as his main discipline, he would still use them as references.

Be familiar with hundreds of schools of thought and learn from their strengths!
This is the martial arts principle that Chen Jie has always followed.

Martial arts cannot be practiced randomly, nor can they be taught at will.

Any martial arts secret book has a heritage and is also the foundation for all major sects.

No one dares to practice the wild martial arts easily, as it is easy to make mistakes.

Generally speaking, even if one has the annotations of the secret book, no one would dare to practice it easily without the master passing it on by word of mouth.

to be frank,
Every warrior has his own inherited martial arts, and the martial arts of other schools are only used as references to make up for the shortcomings of one's own martial arts.

Like Chen Jie, he practiced "Chuo Jiao", "Iron Arm Fist" and "Eagle Claw" at the same time.

This situation is not common for other warriors.

In order to comprehend the essence of each martial art, one needs to spend a lot of time and practice hard.

Bit off more than you can chew!
Chen Jie opened the secret book of "The Thirteen Guardians' Horizontal Training".

What surprised him was that the 'Blood Dragon Jade' in his mind actually flashed.

[Martial Arts Merit Points: +500 points]

That's right,

He just flipped it open and took a look, and hadn't even figured it out yet, but he didn't expect to gain 500 [Martial Arts Merit Points] all at once!
He had had several experiences with all this.

When he first obtained "Iron Arm Fist", he received 500 points of [My Merit Points].

When Linghu Qiannian taught him the "Vajra Kung Fu", he immediately gained 5000 points of [Martial Arts Merit Points].

It is obvious that this "Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training" is the real thing!

Chen Jie didn't even need to practice. Just by activating the 'Blood Dragon Jade' in his mind, he could tell that this secret book was the real one.

Even if other people obtained this secret book, they probably wouldn't dare to practice it easily.

but,

But Chen Jie doesn't have to worry about the problem of practicing incorrectly, he definitely dares to practice!

"The Thirteen Guardians' Horizontal Training"!
This martial art is one of the secret skills of the Imperial Palace, and it is also the most powerful martial art in the world.

The two leaders of the Axe Gang are both masters of Kung Fu, fierce and domineering, and can be said to be invincible in their realm!

honestly,
With Yan Hu's horizontal training skills, it would not be easy for any master of the same level to break through his defense.

If it wasn't for Chen Jie, who cheated with glue and used the 'high-simulation electric shock gloves' to instantly trigger a high voltage of ten thousand volts to break Yan Hu's 'magic body protection', how could it be so easy to defeat him?
Chen Jie has always wanted to inherit this kung fu.

He even asked the eunuch Cao, the chief eunuch of the palace, about this secret martial art of the palace.

unfortunately,

Eunuch Cao had never practiced this horizontal training kung fu, so he didn't talk much about it with him.

And now,
Chen Jie actually raided the warehouse of Piaoxianglou and obtained the inheritance of "The Thirteen Taibao Henglian".

How could he not be extremely excited?
If you want to learn how to hit someone, you must first learn how to be hit!
After reading the general outline of Kung Fu in "The Thirteen Guardians", Chen Jie kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.

Practice one breath internally and muscles, bones and skin externally!

If one can practice "The Thirteen Guardians Horizontal Training" to the highest level.

Not only does it increase your strength dramatically, but it can also improve your defensive capabilities to an incredible level.

The iron wall is as solid as a copper wall and as indestructible as diamond!
nice one!
Chen Jie didn't say anything more, and calmly put away the secret book of "The Thirteen Guardians' Horizontal Training".

Next,
He calmly ordered: "Set fire to Piaoxianglou!"

Zhang Changfeng was stunned when he heard this and didn't react for a long time.

"Need I repeat myself again? Burn it!"

Chen Jie said in a deep voice.

Zhang Changfeng nodded, without saying anything more, and replied: "Sir, I understand!"

Although he was not clear about Chen Jie's intention, since the young master had ordered him to do so, he naturally would not question it.

A fire burned down the entire Piaoxiang Building!

Now that we have already broken off relations with the Taiping, there is no need to worry about so many things anymore.

The Ximen Tang Righteous Group is currently just a chess piece and is not qualified to be a chess player.

There was endless fighting between factions within the Daqian Dynasty.

The Western coalition forces have already reached their doorstep, but the people within Daqian are still fighting openly and secretly for their own interests.

Chen Jie took the opportunity of razing Piaoxiang Tower to make the chess game clear.

When Chen Jie and the elite troops of Ximentang returned to Tanggu Port, it was already late at night.

The atmosphere at the entire Tanggu Port became very lively.

-

Chen Jie arranged everything. He did not waste any time and began to practice "The Thirteen Guardians' Horizontal Training"!
Although this time, Piaoxiang Tower was demolished.

but,

Chen Jie knew very well that there was one person who definitely couldn't sleep.

This person will deliberately deal with me in the future.

Therefore,
While developing and expanding Ximen Hall, its own strength must also be improved.

Only by becoming stronger can you have more power to protect yourself.

Zhao Tianba!
Cutting down the weeds without eradicating the roots, they will grow again when the spring breeze blows!
As long as Zhao Tianba, the boss of Taiping, is alive, Chen Jie will not be able to sleep or eat well.

Piaoxianglou, the most important source of income for the Taiping, was completely destroyed by himself.

Not to mention that he was just the leader of the Ximen Tang Righteous Group. Even if he was an important official in the Grand Council, Zhao Tianba would probably seek revenge on him at all costs.

Although the Taiping Axe Gang was defeated in the Xicheng District of the capital in the Hero Arena, Ximen Tang took away the position of leader of the Xicheng District's militia.

but,

All along, Zhao Tianba of Taiping did not take Ximen Tang, a newly emerged gang, seriously.

but,

Ever since Ximen Tang defeated the Hunter coalition, Zhao Tianba had to take it seriously.

He asked Wang Liankui to invite Chen Jie to Piaoxianglou in order to deal with Chen Jie.

at this time,

Zhao Tianba still didn't know the news that Piaoxiang Tower had been destroyed.

He had just been in the Japanese concession, discussing cooperation with Yuan Feisaki, the new ninja leader of the Japanese Black Dragon Society.

Next,
He lived in the Japanese concession, happily drinking wine with Japanese girls.

Although Zhao Tianba is just the boss of a gang, the Ninth Prince is behind him.

Therefore,
The Japanese valued him very much and provided him with the most distinguished service.

In Zhao Tianba's opinion, these Japanese women are completely different from the dancers in his Piaoxiang Tower.

The cold wind at night rang the wind chimes outside the attic in the Japanese Concession.

Zhao Tianba yawned and glanced at the Oriental singer who was sleeping beside him.

He got up, still feeling somewhat uneasy.

at this time,

A warrior from the Oriental Black Dragon Society knocked on the door.

Zhao Tianba hurried forward, opened the door, and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Murai, is there anything wrong?"

Mr. Murai nodded, leaned close to Zhao Tianba's ear, and whispered:

"Mr. Zhao, the Black Dragon Society has the latest news, and it's related to you!"

Zhao Tianba was surprised and said, "Oh? What news is related to me? You actually need Mr. Murai to tell me in person?"

Mr. Murai hesitated for a moment and whispered:
"Mr. Zhao, Piaoxianglou was destroyed!"

"What!?"

Zhao Tianba only felt a thump in his head.

Next,
Mr. Murai recounted the incident of Ximen Hall attacking Piaoxiang Tower tonight.

at this time,

Piaoxiang Tower has been burned to ashes by a fire!
Zhao Tianba's expression changed completely when he heard this.

His eyes turned red, and then his face turned from red to pale.

puff--!
Anger attacks the heart!
Zhao Tianba suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Mr. Zhao——!"

Mr. Murai exclaimed.

boom--!
Zhao Tianba kicked the attic door open and let out a shrill roar.

"Ximen Tang Chen Jie——!"

His voice was filled with endless anger and murderous intent, like a cuckoo crying blood, with resentment rising to the sky.

Whoosh!
Next,
Zhao Tianba's body flashed, like a gust of wind, and disappeared in an instant.

Mr. Murai looked at Zhao Tianba's leaving back, sighed helplessly and shook his head.

Next,
He turned and walked towards the meeting hall of the Oriental Black Dragon Society——!
-

Tianjin Dagukou Fortress. Toot-toot-toot!
The horn sounds and the war clouds gather!
The Western Allied Forces' suicide squad had already advanced to ten kilometers beyond the Dagukou Fortress.

The vanguard under Yan Kuangtu's 'War Department' had a fierce battle with the Western Allied Forces' death squad.

"Master! The Hunter coalition forces are attacking again. Our previous prediction was wrong!"

"It seems that the target of Hunter's attack this time is our Tanggu Port!"

He had just returned from following the vanguard team to investigate military intelligence outside the Dagukou Fortress, and his face became extremely serious.

"Hunter's attack is ahead of schedule!"

"They have assembled a 30,000-strong coalition force, and they are coming in full force, equipped with powerful artillery and heavy machine guns!"

The vanguard suffered casualties for the first time.

Yan Kuangtu formed a 50-man vanguard team under his command, specifically to investigate military intelligence.

Unexpectedly, this time, in the confrontation with the Western suicide squad, two of them were killed and five others were seriously injured.

Yan Kuangtu's eyes suddenly turned red.

Although the Western Allied Forces' suicide squad suffered five times more casualties than the vanguard of the combat unit.

But the number of Ximen Hall's elite troops was still too small, and any casualties would be a heavy blow.

Chen Jie said sternly: "The telescopes I distributed to you, are you using them for decoration?"

"Who told you to fight them hand to hand? I gave you bulletproof vests, not to let you fight with others!"

"What have you learned about the investigation courses I asked you to take?"

"Keep investigating. Remember, don't keep thinking about your previous scout methods to investigate military intelligence. When you go to fight with the enemy, you must change your combat concept. Otherwise, you will suffer a great loss!"

"I want to know where the Hunter coalition forces attacked from, their current location, and how far they are from our Tanggu Port!"

"Their troop deployment, the specific location of the artillery, and the specific configuration of the heavy machine guns!"

Chen Jie's tone became very serious.

Yan Kuangtu was severely criticized by Chen Jie and lowered his head without saying a word.

indeed,

This time, the vanguard of Ximen Tang’s combat unit suffered casualties, and he was primarily responsible.

His ideas did not change all of a sudden, and he still used the previous scout method to gather military intelligence. He got too close to the Western Allied Forces and had a fierce exchange of fire with the enemy's suicide squad.

call--!
Yan Kuangtu nodded and said:

"Sir, I understand!"

Chen Jie's tone became extremely serious and solemn.

He said coldly: "Don't show any guilty thoughts in front of me, Chief Yan!"

"Although the Hunter coalition's attack this time was not prepared for long, it was fierce and its firepower configuration far exceeded the last time!"

"This battle is related to the survival of our Ximen Hall. We can't afford to lose. Do you understand?"

"We only have 2,000 people. We want to stop the attack of 30,000 Western coalition forces, and we have to divide our forces to raid the border crossing!"

"Any slight mistake will lead to irreparable consequences."

"What I need now is the specific configuration of the Hunter coalition forces. The more detailed the better. I don't want you to take a few dozen people and go fight them head-on!"

"How much can you fight? Even if you can inflict ten times the casualties, and you sacrifice all fifty vanguard members, do you think it's worth it?"

Yan Kuangtu felt the murderous aura emanating from Chen Jie and nodded:
"Sir, I know I was wrong! I will immediately arrange for someone to investigate again. I promise that I will complete the task!"

After Yan Kuangtu left.

Chen Jie couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm down.

A big war is coming, but I didn't expect that I would still be a little nervous after all.

Plans can’t keep up with changes!
According to the original plan, everyone thought that Hunter's coalition forces had suffered a defeat at the Tanggu Port and would never organize an attack so quickly.

but,

What no one in Ximen Hall expected was that the Hunter coalition forces gathered their forces so quickly.

Make a comeback!

Ximen Tang’s preparations were not yet sufficient.

The only thing that made Chen Jie feel relieved was that the production efficiency in the arsenal at the Ximentang camp in the capital had greatly improved.

Currently, Ximentang has 60 300MM mortars!
120MM mortars, 30 pieces have been equipped!
The production efficiency of imitation AK47 automatic rifles has also been improved, and the yield rate has been greatly improved.

In addition to Tang Feng's personal guards, 30 imitation AK automatic rifles were also in place.

in fact,

Whether it was Yan Kuangtu, Zeng Xuanhuai or Zhang Changfeng, everyone was very nervous.

Hunter's coalition army of 30,000 men is coming with great force.

As long as the Tanggu Port is lost, there is no doubt that Seymour's 100,000-strong army will march straight in and directly capture the Dagukou Fortress.

The Daqian Dynasty originally planned to mobilize 300,000 troops to garrison the Zizhulin Fortress.

unfortunately,

Lack of food, money, and supplies—lack of all military supplies!
The logistical support of an army of 300,000 is no joke.

Up to now, the Daqian Military Department has discussed it for so long, but has not yet completed the deployment.

In other words.

Once the Dagukou Fortress is lost, the entire capital city will be undefended.

The Western coalition forces will march straight into the capital.

With the combat effectiveness of the Beijing Imperial Guard, they would be vulnerable to the powerful firepower suppression of the Western Allied Forces' latest equipment, the 'Krupp Infantry Gun' and the 'Maxim Heavy Machine Gun'.

Chen Jie put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind and decided to go to the rebuilt fortifications at Tanggu Port to take a good look at the combat readiness situation.

After less than ten days of reconstruction, the entire Tanggu Port became as solid as a rock again.

The food is in place, the money is in place!

The efficiency of reconstruction was naturally high, and although the war was approaching, the fortifications were full of people.

This time,
What Chen Jie wants is not just to defend the Tanggu Port.

He had to rely on the defensive high ground at the Tanggu Port to keep the enemy five kilometers away.

It was necessary to prevent the Western Allied Forces from approaching the Tanggu Port and to start the battle outside the range of the enemy's Krupp infantry guns.

Once the Krupp infantry guns of Hunter's coalition opened fire, these rebuilt fortifications would be destroyed once again.

Zeng Xuanhuai was commanding the reserve troops to build fortifications around the "Weiyuan Cannon".

Each Weiyuan cannon has been rebuilt to enhance its firepower.

At the same time, a position for 120mm mortars was built near the Weiyuan cannon.

This is the first wave of firepower attack on Tanggu Port, with a long distance and strong power.

Thirty 120mm mortars and twelve Weiyuan cannons, once they open fire at full strength.

Chen Jie could imagine what would happen when the Hunter coalition forces entered the five-kilometer fire coverage range of the 60mm mortar.

The 120mm mortar and Weiyuan cannon will be the powerful firepower to block the enemy's retreat.

At that time, all the attacking Hunter coalition forces would once again enter the range of full artillery coverage.

With no way to retreat or escape, the Hunter coalition was doomed to be wiped out again.

"Don't get too close when firing at the platform. Keep a little further away!"

"Everyone, lay some larger pieces of granite on the ground to prevent the ground from deforming after the bombardment, which would cause a deviation in the accuracy of the bombardment!"

Zeng Xuanhuai kept giving orders.

On the other side, Zhang Changfeng also led the elite of the "Eagle Tribe" to build defensive fortifications.

It's a pity that there wasn't enough cement, otherwise the fortifications could have been built faster and more solidly.

Although the cement manufacturing technology has been introduced to the Daqian Dynasty from the West, Daqian has not yet built a cement plant.

Inside the camp at Tanggu Port, Ximentang’s newly established arsenal was counting various artillery shells, muskets, etc.

The baggage train of the capital's arsenal continuously delivered artillery shells, bullets, etc. to the military camps.

Chen Jie walked around the fortifications. The only regret in his heart was that he was not equipped with a Browning M2 heavy machine gun.

if not,

There is no need to worry at all with five Browning M2 heavy machine guns deployed at the Tanggu Port.

When Chen Jie returned to the meeting hall of the military camp, he saw Wan Jinpeng coming to him and handing him an official document.

In recent times, Wan Jinpeng's martial arts have almost recovered.

His arm, which was deformed from practicing the "Iron Arm Fist", was restored after soaking in the medicinal bath.

His martial arts level is at the level of Bronze Skin and Bright Strength, but his spirit refining level is much weaker than Chen Jie's.

Therefore,
The "Bible Spiritual Cultivation Technique" performed by Chen Jie had a great influence on him.

After opening the document, Chen Jie couldn't help laughing.

The old man Ye Zhicheng finally saw the situation clearly and made the most correct choice.

He agreed to cooperate with the defense of the Tanggu Port and use the Dagukou Fortress and other strongholds to contain Seymour's main force.

and,

If Ximen Tang raided Bian Du, he would let his chief general Xiong Chao lead the troops to cooperate and contain the Western colonial army.

It seems that Ye Zhicheng is not confused.

He also saw the severity of this battle and that failure was not an option.

of course,

Chen Jie did not completely trust that the other party would cooperate with him. All he needed was Ye Zhicheng's attitude.

Everything is ready!

Ximen Hall has 500 elite troops at Tanggu Port, plus 1,500 reserve troops.

The firepower configuration is in place, and now we are just waiting for the arrival of Hunter's coalition forces.

Hunter!

I didn't cripple you last time, but I didn't expect you to come to me again!

This time,
I, Ximen Tang, have two thousand brothers and hundreds of cannons, waiting for you to die!

Gather 30,000 Western coalition forces and launch an attack!
After this battle, let’s see how many lives you have left to fill the gap at Tanggu Port!

Chen Jie thought to himself——!
