Chapter 83 Contest

"Cannon?" Xu Ren expressed doubts, "Master, do you know this?"

Li Xian didn't explain, just said: "I also wanted to make artillery, but the production of explosives is too small, so I can only make firearms. Artillery is a magnified firearm, and its power has been increased countless times."

"Increased countless times?" Xu Ren was startled by this sentence.

"Oops... I mean complete artillery. But their artillery seems too primitive to count. Haha..."

After that, Li Xian avoided some sensitive questions, and Xu Ren wisely didn't ask - which practitioner has no secrets. What the two discussed was the "artillery" issue.

But before the two of them discussed it, more scouts would report back—Cai Guo actually demonstrated the artillery to the scouts!

"Take the initiative to show the secret weapon? Cai Guo is so generous." Li Xian was overjoyed. In fact, Cai Guo wanted to demonstrate and intimidate; it should be said that Cai Guo did a good job. If it is normal, Anyang will definitely be fucked. However, things are not normal! It is not Anyang that is abnormal, but Li Xian. To be precise, Li Xian's origin is abnormal.

After watching the "cannon" specially shown by Cai Guo, Li Xian finally smiled, "I was shocked, and thought it was really a cannon. It turned out that it was not a cannon, but a gunpowder. There is no doubt that the gunpowder was used.

Moreover, the firecrackers vary in size and are not uniform at all, and there is not even a basic standard. "

Xu Ren hesitated for a long time, and finally asked: "Master, how to avoid the artillery attack?"

"Spread out! The army should not be lined up neatly like in the past, but should be spread out and attack freely. But the main thing is to increase the number of sniper rifles and musketeers.

This kind of firecracker has a limited attack range and is easy to explode. Let's let the snipers shoot at long range. Also, all weapons of war transport a few snipers to snipe at high altitude.

Most importantly, this kind of gunpowder requires a lot of gunpowder, find their gunpowder magazine. Gunpowder explodes after being hit hard and sparked. Just find their powder magazine and we'll play sniping. "

The two discussed, and the scouts reported back that Cai Guo expected to dispatch 100,000 troops this time, and expressed that he would set foot on Ping'anyang in one fell swoop. Moreover, this time it turned out that Prime Minister Yan Ze'an personally supervised the army, and the three generals Wang Qisheng, Yan Zhengqing, and Lu Chenggang each led the battle.

"A 100,000 army?" Xu Ren comprehensively calculated all the past data, and finally came to a conclusion, "There are only 60,000 at most, and no less than 50,000 at least. But even so, 20% of Cai Guo's main army was mobilized.

Young Master, immediately write a letter to Lord Li Yulong to persuade His Majesty the Emperor to make a northern expedition and encourage all the counties and prefectures in the north to send troops to plunder Cai Guo. This time, it must be a complete victory. And as long as the north is dispatched, our place will be as stable as a rock. Otherwise, if we only rely on Anyang to fight against the strength of Cai Guo, we have little chance of winning, and even if we win, it will be a miserable victory. "

In fact, there is no need for Li Xian to write a letter. When Li Xian was discussing here, Li Yulong had already received the information. When Li Xian's letter was sent out, Fu Minghui, the chief guard of the palace and Lang Zhongling, had ordered 30,000 elite soldiers to rush northward, and the three counties in the north of Daxia Kingdom even asked to send troops. Everyone is not stupid, when they hear the news At that time, they all realized that this was an opportunity, a good opportunity to rob Cai Guo, and incidentally retaliate against the previous war.

It is estimated that no one thought that this war would turn into an all-out war between Cai and Daxia. But it happened anyway.

When Fu Minghui led the troops to go north, on the Cai side, Prime Minister Yan Zean was saying to Wang Qisheng, Yan Zhengqing, and Lu Chenggang, "Three generals, the time for this war is relatively tight. We only have three days to fight. I think, Great Xia Kingdom Now there is a large army on the Northern Expedition.

If possible, I hope that after Anyang is captured, we can directly copy the back route of the Great Xia Northern Expeditionary Army from Anyang, so that we will be able to occupy three to four counties in the north of the Great Xia Kingdom in one fell swoop.

But if Anyang cannot be broken within three days, we must also disable Anyang and make them lose their ability to march; then return to the army to intercept the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Great Xia Kingdom. "

"Understood!" The three generals nodded immediately.

"Now that you understand, let's prepare. For military matters, you can decide for yourself."

The three generals of Cai Guo immediately prepared for the battle, and the army was reorganized before noon. After a while, the army, which was said to be 100,000 but actually more than 50,000, left the border and charged towards Anyang.

And the ones who walked in the front were more than a thousand young masters in the foundation building stage. They used real yuan to shape iron pipes and iron balls, and behind them followed carriages, all of which were filled with gunpowder and iron balls.

These little masters don't need to burn incense, just rub their fingers together, and a little magic can emit a little spark, which can ignite the gunpowder.

However, when Cai Guo's soldiers came to Anyang's border defense with confidence, everyone was suddenly dumbfounded. They saw 40 weapons of war floating in the sky in front of them at a height of about 60 feet (200 meters).

"Why does this weapon of war look so familiar?" The three generals all looked strange.

"Where did the spirit stone come from here in Anyang?" Yan Zhengqing was the most shocked, the last war was led by Yan Zhengqing, so he naturally knew the situation of the magic weapon in the battle formation. To fly at a height of 60 feet, 10 spirit stones are needed!

"Stop!" The army paused and was still more than two miles away from the Anyang border defense.

But they stopped, but Anyang's magic weapon of war moved! And it was Cheng Jiming who commanded the weapons of war—for the command of these 40 magic weapons of war, Cheng Jiming even resigned from the original general of the bow and arrow brigade.

Standing high in the sky, Cheng Jiming was very proud. Looking at Cai Guo's neat team, he sneered in his heart: "Hmph, thank you for the elixir given by the young master. I am also a master of the Golden Core stage now. Now, let me play well. The scarecrows of Cai Guo, let You have seen and seen, what is real firepower coverage!

The new tactics that the young master has explained in the past few days will definitely make you feel overwhelmed! "

The magic weapon of war flew at an altitude of 200 meters, pressing forward quickly; when the war started, the new crossbows made entirely of steel were slowly pulled apart. These ballistas, which use a large number of springs and pulley blocks to store energy, are more than twice as powerful as the original ones made of monster bones.

The monks in the foundation-building period turned into Hercules. Under their control, the powerful and well-designed steel crossbow bed was like a toy, and a raw iron crossbow as thick as an arm was shot out with a click, and it flew out two times in an instant. miles away.

40 weapons of war, and more than 120 crossbows flew out at the same time. Facing the densely packed army of Cai Guo, there was no need to aim at all.

Pooh...

A piece of blood rolled, and more than 120 bloody roads appeared in front of Cai Guo's army in an instant, and thousands of soldiers were torn apart in an instant.

Cai Guo responded immediately, and another twenty magic weapons of war flew up.
