Chapter four hundred and twenty-seven Secret weapons

On the other side of the river, Zhang Xuansu watched Xia Jun quickly cross the pontoon bridge and throw himself into the North Shore offensive.
One thousand heavily armored foot soldiers gained a foothold on the north bank, and then two thousand people wore red jackets and yellow headscarves. Xia Jun lightly armored foot soldiers also crossed the river one after another with pike bows and arrows.
Zhang Xuansu said to Dou Jiande, "Report to me that the enemy has been protecting Xiao for a long time. If it is so easy for us to capture the beach, then there must be fraud in my opinion."
Dou Jiande listened and asked, "Zhang Aiqing, where do you think the enemy’s tricks are?"
Zhang Xuansu was speechless and thought for a while. "I still don’t know if I feel wrong."
Aside ran Song Zheng sneered, "Our army has gained an advantage by fighting bloody battles along the river. Zhang Huangmen won’t let our army give up everything it has gained in vain because of a bad feeling. Go back to the river."
Dou Jiande nodded and said, "Zhang Aiqing Song Nayan said that it makes sense. The eye war situation is downwind for our army. If we suddenly retreat across the river, I’m afraid the morale will be shaken."
Dou Jiande said that several generals have said, "Our army is five times as big as the Youzhou army, even though there are flying daggers and fear."
Zhang Xuansu should stop talking, and I should do my duty of exhortation, so I can decide whether to listen or not.
At this time, Fubao, the king of the river bank, led Xia Jun to counterattack the sword and shield soldiers, and the lancers came second, while the archers arranged in a conical formation, and more and more people crossed the river and Xia Jun joined the circle.
Wang Fubao held an iron gun and was unstoppable before the assault. The front man was a triad general, and around him were twenty or thirty Xia Jun veterans. These veterans were wearing heavy armor, and all of them were brave and desperate, and Wang Fubao looked after each other.
In those days, Wang Fubao led hundreds of elite surprise attacks in Xia Jun, and Xue Shixiong’s left Royal Guards succeeded in breaking 30,000 elite government troops.
Wang Fubao is brave, but the Youzhou army is also desperate to resist the life of the soldiers on both sides. The bowstring collapses, the arrows are broken and intertwined, and the short blades of the steel knives stab each other. The soldiers try their best to twist the soldiers alive and kicking like a huge meat grinder.
The corpse feet were stacked layer after layer. At first, the soldiers of the two armies marched on the mud. Later, they marched on the stump and minced meat. They couldn’t tell the difference between the feet. This pile of meat was the enemy and the comrades-in-arms. From the bottom of their hearts, they thought that it was the first to stabilize, otherwise, if one dish was unstable, they would eat their opponents and become a part of this bloody sea.
Fighting to the present king Fu Baoyong is hard to go further after 20 steps. He waved a pike and secretly lost his heart. This deep and remote state army is not only tenacious and well-trained, but also has a very tacit understanding with each other, far better than dealing with imperial officers and soldiers by himself. Xue Shixiong had practiced government soldiers and was not so strong.
Not only Wang Fubao was stunned when he was in battle, but also the soldiers watching Xia Jun by the river. How long has it been since he fought such a hard battle? In recent years, Xia Jun has been defeated by the south and the north, and even Xue Shixiong has been defeated by them. The army will be arrogant and look down on his opponent.
But now Xia Jun is also surprised by the bravery and good fighting of the Youzhou Army. Wang Fubao’s first soldier, Xia Jun, is a first-class and elite soldier in Xia Jun, but it’s just that the enemy is evenly matched. However, the well-trained and tacit tactics of the Youzhou Army are deeply impressed on their minds.
Dou Jiande is also silent aside LingJing see Dou Jiande face dignified color said, "Yan Zhao more generous elegiac poet this is a legacy of yan dan soldiers comparable to the sharp death of Tianxiong and Li Chongjiu government soldiers training is more different from the imperial government soldiers, if there is no war at ordinary times or farming in spring, summer and autumn, winter review training training practice is less than one hundred days at most, and I heard that the military soldiers in Youzhou are usually idle production and practice for 300 days every year, so they are so elite."
Listening to Ling Jingyan, Liu Heita and other generals were shocked and asked, "Where did Li Chongjiu raise so many soldiers?"
It is only possible that the general of Xia Jun will be full-time and the standing army will have Qinbing Tooth Soldiers around the general. There are only a few hundred such generals as Liu Heita’s retinue Tooth Soldiers.
Ling Jing said, "Li Chongjiu has two rich counties in Youzhou and Taiyuan, and two towns in Huaihuang and Yuyi have borrowed money and food from the people to raise soldiers. Even so, the whole Youzhou government soldiers are just over 30 thousand people."
Dou Jiande took a look at Lingjing and said, "But I have a Wang Fubao in Xia Jun with 100,000 troops."
With the progress of the war, Wang Fubao, the only one in Dou Jiande’s 100,000-strong army, also fell into a bitter battle. The shield array of Youzhou Army greatly offset his personal bravery and made him fall into a tired battle.
Wang Fubao is also a person who has the strength to do his best. Now his breathing is getting worse. When he stepped back and let the lieutenant take a breath, Wang Fubao was exhausted and Xia Jun’s impact momentum stopped temporarily.
Coach Li Chongjiu saw this scene and said, "Xia Jun’s offensive is exhausted, but there are 3,000 people crossing the river. If we persist, I am afraid that the former army can’t resist."
Aside from Yoshikawa, he said, "Although there is a plan to lure Xia Jun to add more soldiers, I don’t think General Wang can fight any more, otherwise our army will not reach the Xia Jun pontoon bridge if we retreat back."
Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "huotang legally blew the command immediately, and Zhou Zuo shot them with stone grease bombs."
Two hundred and fifty paces from the river, Zhou Zuo and Li Jiang are leading hundreds of foot soldiers in front of the gun.
Zhou Zuozheng, a newcomer to several artisans’ workshops, prefaced, "When I attacked Taiyuan County, I broke the tower with this big guy! Don’t panic. It’s just that when the smell of blood is a little heavy, you will get a big reward when you are in the tinker on weekdays. "
Several new craftsmen nodded in succession, but their faces were still pale and bloody, which was the general performance of the first-time battlefield people.
Zhou Zuo hummed a word with a battle-hardened look, "Don’t embarrass me."
A craftsman said, "I really want to shoot a stone grease bomb in a while. This was developed by our craftsman only two months ago. Because it was too precious, I bought 50 kilograms of stone grease from the merchants in the western regions. I was afraid that something would go wrong when I tried to shoot three rounds in the past two months because you said it was too expensive."
"I’ll kill you if anything goes wrong," Zhou Zuo roared. "It’s not like you haven’t seen this fight in the tinker, but you’ve burned a large area of land. I don’t blame you if you shoot near and burn our foot soldiers out of order. It’s not enough for you and me to ask for a hundred times."
The young craftsman was nearly stunned by Zhou Zuo’s threats.
Li Jiang is a good old man. He said, "Don’t worry, just follow the original instructions step by step."
Having said that, Li Jiang also complained that "this thing is so dangerous. At the beginning, Gu Gong wanted us to master the craftsmanship in a few months, so it is good to sharpen our guns in case we hurt ourselves."
Zhou Zuo’s eyes narrowed and he said, "What do you know about Gu Gong and you stupid donkey? Who would have guessed that this stone grease oil lamp is too smelly to burn on weekdays, but this weapon is so powerful? What is the risk compared with waiting for the seer?"
For the power of the stone grease bomb, everyone is clear and nodded.
This stone grease smells strange when it burns. It is not used to light a lamp on weekdays, nor is it used to cook on weekdays. People in the western regions don’t abandon it, but it is not easy to afford it. But one day, when Li Chongjiu saw it in Youzhou City, he said that this crude oil made Zhou Zuo buy and refine it into oil bombs.
Zhou Zuo was skeptical, but Li Chongjiu said that it was used by western governors and countries to fight and burn ships. After three months, it was finally developed successfully. Today, it is ready to cooperate with the launch of ultra-long-range guns.
"Gu Gonggong ordered to shoot stone grease bombs!"
"promise!" Zhou Zuo promised to shout, "Cheer up and give me all the grease bombs without a test gun."
As Zhou Zuoyi roars, hundreds of village soldiers are doing it.
The cannon at the top of the door stripped off its coat to reveal its ferocious face.
