On the fifth day of the eighth month, the army in the southern expedition swore in Guilin Prefecture, Guangxi.

At the same time, the Ming Dynasty's manifesto of exorcisting the civilian crimes and conquering the pseudo-dynasty of the Li family in Annan was engraved on wooden signs by the Ming army and placed them in the river and downstream.

The people of Annan on the original border did not know why the Ming army gathered on the border and were very frightened. However, after seeing the manifesto, the people were at peace and waiting for the royal army to arrive.

On the same day, Dongguan Bo He Rong, deputy general of the Southern Expedition, led his army to capture Annan Qiuwen County without bloodshed, and built a castle to transport military rations.

The next day, another deputy general, Yongding Hou Zhang Quan, pioneered Huang Zhong, Goryeo General Pu Sandai, and Yingyang General Zhu Neng, led the army to attack at Annan Pass and Liuguan.

This pass is the southeastern Youzhai, Pingxiang City, Guangxi in later generations, and is the only way for Guangxi to enter Vietnam.

~~

The pass is not very majestic, but it is built on the mountain with winding twists and turns and deep depths.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, the people of Annan formed villages along the mountain, and villages were between villages and trenches between bunkers, connecting them horizontally.

"Dog god!"

Zhang Quan, the Marquis of Yongding, stationed at the foot of the mountain. He looked at the figures running around the mountain and shaking the battle flags, and grinned, "They're all turned into turtles!"

In advance, they had received the military newspaper. There were 20,000 Annan defenders in this pass, equipped with a large number of muskets and condescending. On the road to climbing, a large number of pits were set up, and sharpened pillars were inserted into the pits.

"The Annan people are trying to avoid field battles and defend to the death!" Goryeo General Guan Pu Sanda also looked at the village on the mountain and frowned, "If we attack for a strong force, our army will definitely lose a lot!"

"Swish!" As soon as the words finished, a sneer came from the side.

He turned around a little annoyed, but he was the chief general of Guangxi Dushi. This time, the former general Huang Zhong, who was sneering at the South.

"What? Am I wrong? General Huang?" Park Sandao asked.

Now he is not the former Wuxia Amon, now he has the emperor to decide for him.

When the emperor did not make decisions for him in the past, these fierce generals of the Ming Dynasty bullied him. Now the emperor has made decisions for him and bullied him.

Then the fucking emperor is not in vain?

"There is no one who can't die in war!" Huang Zhong rolled his eyes, "Besides, we have to try it if we can fight!"

After the words came, Zhang Quan, the Marquis of Yongding, turned around and grinned, "Is it deep or shallow? Try to confront each other?"

"Try it!" Ming generals grinned.

Park Sanda hurriedly said, "Mr. Marquis, I am willing to take the headquarters as a pioneer!"

He was ready to ask for battle, and he made up his mind that no matter how many casualties or injuries, he would have to come up with the might of the Goryeo Army.

But Zhang Quan, the Marquis of Yongding, shook his head and said solemnly, "I'm not underestimating you! You have never fought such a battle!" As he said, his tone was softer, "This time, the battle must be won with a thunderous momentum. Do not start with a bumpy start!"

As he said that, he ordered, "Huang Zhong, Zhu Neng!"

"The last one will be here!"

"Breaking at him! Fight to death!"

~~

"My boys are ready!"

The military order was not issued for three breaths, and the officers shouted one after another from the Ming army's position.

"One team!"

"The rattan player is ahead!"

"The sword and axe are behind!"

"Throw those stupid guys in the long spear first!"

"Hurry up the Huihui cannon for me and blow it at the top of the mountain!"

It seems like a noisy order, but every one is well-founded.

Because the Annan Army built camps on the mountain and dug bunkers. As the vanguard corps, the Ming army was equipped with light artillery, with high thunder and low rainfalls, which was far inferior to the Hui artillery that was scattered with flowers in the sky.

Just as the Ming army was integrating the team, seven or eight Hui artillery were already pushed directly to the forefront of the position under the command of the veterans. If the Annan Army on the mountain also had artillery, it would be within the bombardment range.

The Ming army's gun craftsmen shouted at the top of their voices that the Gaoli soldiers acted as the starter, and the Huihui gun was set up soon.

Among the Ming army, the veterans who looked lazy and even a little vulgar on weekdays, squinted their eyes at this moment, first licked their thumbs with their tongues, and tried to go the wind.

Then he squinted his eyes and calculated the distance with a slight rumor in his mouth.

"Test shot!"

As the officer finished speaking, the squeaking winch sounded, and the reel cannon filled with gravel was pulled.

Then with the sledgehammer thud, it was a buzzing whistling.

Countless black dots rushed into the sky, then whistled and fell at the highest point.

boom!

Above the pass, there are smoke.

The Annan army in the mountain valley yelled and ran away with their heads in their arms.

But when the smoke and dust dissipated, I found that the gravel did not cause much damage to the Annan army, and many gravels flew over.

"The winch loose twenty kilograms, and the rope is tightened for two meters!"

The veterans in charge of observation began to yell again, "Don't throw my mother, I haven't practiced for a few days, so I just gave birth to my mother's hand, and I'm sure I'll go to my grandma's house!"

Squeak, Huihui cannon is adjusted again.

At the same time, several square formations of 300 people were also formed at the foot of the mountain.

The front one is a rattan card that is five feet tall with bamboo rattan, covered with iron and then wrapped in cowhide.

This card is not square, but wide on the top and narrow on the bottom, one foot or eight on the wide side and one foot or three on the narrow side.

The reason why the upper and lower ones are wide, because if the enemy attacks with bows and arrows and firearms, the narrow shield can be inserted into the ground to borrow force.

Several square arrays of elegant birds are silent!

The Ming generals on the horse were all happy, but Pu Sandao had a little sigh on his face.

"These soldiers look very lazy on weekdays, but they are full of murderous aura when they are about to fight!"

Originally, he saw that the Ming border troops in charge of the Goryeo camp were like wolves and tigers, and he looked down on these local troops in Guangdong and Guangxi.

But at this time, seeing that the Ming army was in a strict formation and the orders were imposed, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

~

And at this moment, the officer in front of the repatriation artillery suddenly shouted, "Let it go!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

It is not a swarm, but a sequence of delivery.

There were whistling black dots all over the sky, and there was firelight mixed in the black dots.

This time, after adjusting the angle, the Ming army gunners used not all gravel.

Instead, there is a thunderclap with an outer circle and a hollow inside the fire.

Bang!

A loud noise that shook the sky.

Park Sandao's war horse tweaked uneasyly.

I saw countless sparks blooming in the sky, and the sky was filled with fragments flying everywhere, with terrifying momentum.

Boom!
Chapter completed!
