They are called hussars, but they no longer use cavalry. Who dares to believe this?
But it just happened.
As the order was given, Xu Chu's army marched forward, with flags and spears like a forest, and the horses galloping up to stir up dust in the sky.
The mules pulled the cannon, lowered their heads, and walked forward silently. I wonder if they were envious of their cousins.
The addition of wheels with a wider track structure is obviously more convenient than a simple axle and spoke structure, and there is no risk of falling into potholes at any time during transportation and transfer.
When the sun gradually became centered, Xu Chu and others began to attack.
Following the sound of the order, the artillery formation in the rear passed through the gap specially set aside by the military formation, arrived in front of the formation, and pointed the dark muzzle at Cao Jun's camp. The craftsmen and artillerymen in charge of the artillery quickly started
The gun carriage was fixed, and the ammunition loading and chamber clearing tools were taken out from the baggage carriage at the rear, and the preparations for firing were completed quickly and effectively.
Artillery leader Huang Military Academy personally led his people to check the artillery layout again.
He has no thoughts or opinions about Xu Chu, or in other words, he has no special opinions about most of the generals. The somewhat harsh and even rude remarks he made before can generally be seen as Li Gong Dog's dissatisfaction with the world.
Just adapt.
But turning around, the Huang Military Academy showed an attitude toward the cannons under his command, as if it were a grumpy little lover. With doting eyes, he carefully inspected the briefs on the little lover's body...
…
Ahem, fixtures.
After ensuring that the artillery preparations were safe and correct, he waved the flag to Xu Chu.
Xu Chu responded quickly.
"Get ready to fire!" Huang's Artillery Military School shouted, glaring at his soldiers and craftsmen, "Check the propellant gauge again! Make sure the gunpowder batches are not mixed together! Who the hell put the wrong amount of powder in the cannon?
I'll stuff the cannon into his back ditch!"
The artillery soldiers also responded loudly.
Turning around, Huang's military academy touched a cannon and whispered softly, "Have you been holding it in for a long time? This will give you a good feeling!"
Then he yelled again, "Get ready! Shoot in one shot!"
With a roar, gray smoke with some blue smoke rose up from the artillery position, and then the yellow dust on the ground was also flying under the sun.
A black line instantly crossed the air, and then rushed towards the wall of Cao Jun's camp that besieged Anyi City. Amidst the huge and heart-wrenching creaking sound, it knocked out wood chips flying all over the sky!
"First hit!" the craftsman next to the cannon shouted loudly.
"Report the parameters! Hahahahaha" Huang's military academy laughed and shouted back, "Everyone is here! Get ready to launch!! Let the Cao thieves have a taste of the power of our little baby!"
The roar of artillery fire resounded throughout the fields!
Although I don’t know what the standard of the “little treasures” of the Huang Military Academy is, it was a big shock to Cao Jun!
Even the main camp of Cao's army, which was not bombarded by artillery, was in an uproar!
"Hussars' artillery! It's artillery! It hit our camp!"
Cao Hong's guard shouted, with some fear in his voice.
"What a fart!"
Cao Hong slapped the guard and pulled him aside, disgusted that the guard was blocking his view.
General Fei Qian's movements were so fast that Cao Hong was caught off guard.
Normally, shouldn't the two sides send some envoys and then state the other party's disloyalty, unfilial piety, unkindness, and unjustness, and explain their own righteous positions, which is the foreplay of the battle?
Why did you get such a stupid, big, black guy right out of the gate?!
Cao Hong is ready to humiliate the envoy sent by Fei Qian!
After all, Fei Qian had "rudely" rejected Cao Jun's envoy before.
No matter how bad it is, it still takes time to send troops and set up the formation. Even doing a haircut will take most of the day, right?
And the hussar general Fei Qian seemed to have just arrived casually, just to fight casually, and divided his troops very casually. The key is that he did it just like that!
Take action directly!
Not even a push?!
Cao Hong looked at the Fei Qian formation directly in front, then turned to look at the other flanking Hussars formation, and then muttered to himself incredulously: "What do the Hussars want to do? He...he actually wants to save him first."
People in Anyi City? Is he crazy? Ah? What do we think we are? Wooden stakes or straw targets? Ah?!"
Cao Hong suddenly felt as if there was an unknown fire rising in his heart.
And he still went to fight Anyi!
After Fei Qian led the army, Anyi City had become a bonus for the victor. Since it was a bonus, it was not worth considering. However, Fei Qian not only divided his troops, but also
Deliberately use the flanking troops to attack the Cao army camp that besieged Anyi!
This is like Fei Qian showing that he can win in any fight!
This was not directed at Cao Hong alone, but Fei Qian was taunting everyone in Cao Jun's camp, saying that Cao Jun's camp was full of garbage...
"Who will lead the army to attack Anyi?" Cao Hong identified the battle flag, "Xu? Is it him?"
Cao Hong recognized Xu Chu's flag.
It was this flag that he pulled before Cao Jun's camp.
I heard that this guy was originally from Shandong, but ended up running away to Guanzhong and becoming a lackey under the Cavalry!
traitor!
Traitors will not die!
Cao Cao and Cao Hong put on a show and set up a high platform to prepare for a big show.
As a result, Fei Qian immediately ruined the scene right after the show started?!
What made Fei Qian so eager to take action?
And you still chose Anyi City?
"boom!"
While Cao Hong was thinking, there was another roar.
"Hit again!" Cao Jun's guard shouted.
"Shut up! The walls of the camp are so big! What's so surprising about how many hits there are?!" Cao Hong yelled angrily on the surface, but he couldn't help but feel a little frightened in his heart.
This artillery seems...
Is it bigger than the one above Tongguan?
And the accuracy seems to be better?
The distance was so far that Cao Hong couldn't see much clearly, but at least it sounded like the artillery at Tongguan Pass didn't seem to have the same momentum as it did now.
The sound of the cannon was so loud that even Cao Hong seemed to feel some tremors.
How is this possible?
It's so far away, how can it still be delivered here?
Cao Hong looked around and found that there was an ordinary soldier of Cao's army who was originally on duty at the lookout, holding a wooden pillar and shivering...
"Get out!"
Cao Hong was furious and roared angrily.
The Cao Jun soldiers on duty quickly ran away with their heads in their hands.
This cowardly idiot! If he keeps shaking, will he pee on the lookout?
Cao Hong suddenly thought of something, and his expression became a little worse.
Even if the ordinary soldiers of Cao's army around the central leading army and the central guarding army behave like this, then those guys in the side camps...
Even with this explanation, Cao Hong still had something that he couldn't figure out. Why did the hussar general disperse the artillery to the two wings?
Shouldn't this kind of magic weapon be placed in the center of the formation and used as the sharpest weapon to break the city and attack the stronghold? In his mind, this kind of thing can only be controlled under the direct jurisdiction of Fei Qian, how could it be divided
Get out? If there is anyone with evil intentions, wouldn't it be...
etc.
If we could snatch these cannons...
Even if you can't grab it, you can take a close look, then break the cannon and stuff some sand and gravel into it. Wouldn't it be like breaking half of the hussar's horse's leg?
Cao Hong grunted and swallowed.
No, no!
I am now the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army. I cannot be greedy, I can only be steady!
Cao Hong couldn't help but look back at "Cao Cao" who was on the high platform in the center. If Cao Cao was really in the camp at this time, he could still ask for advice. But with his current appearance, of course he could only pretend.
"Boom, boom!"
There were roars one after another.
"General!" Cao Hong's guard shouted, "Double rabbit flags have been set up in the camp below Anyi City!"
"What?" Cao Hong suddenly became a little angry and said, "You've only been hit by a few shots, but you dare to stand up with two rabbits! These guys are all dead?!"
Of course, there are not dead people in the Cao army camp that besieged Anyi City, but their subjective initiative is almost the same as dead people. If these people are allowed to deal with the defeated soldiers in Anyi City, there will certainly be no problem, but now facing the hussars and artillery, they immediately panic.
His hands and feet were injured, and obviously there was not much damage, but under the collective panic, it didn't matter whether he set up a flag to ask for help or not first.
Cao Hong was lying on the railing of the observation deck, looking at the other two directions of the Hussars' formation, "Ignore them! This is the Hussars' attack from the east to the west!"
Although he said this, Cao Hong had no idea.
Is it really an attempt to attack the east and attack the west?
Or is it false and true?
Are you even preparing for an all-out attack with multiple breakthrough points?
Dry!
Should I choose A, B, or C for this question?
…
…
Pei Ji, who was lying on the dilapidated city wall of Anyi, was also faced with a multiple-choice question.
In Anyi City, just as Fei Qian expected, an epidemic has appeared.
If Anyi could dispose of all the corpses, it might be possible to prevent the growth of bacteria and the spread of disease.
Or maybe everyone in the city could unite as one, and the rich would use the remaining cloth and food, so that the poor could have more energy to work, organize and coordinate to tide over the difficulties together, and maybe they would be safe and sound.
But obviously, when the crisis has passed, people who were in the same queue, who once supported each other and relied on each other, are now walking, riding in carriages, and riding horses. The carriage has wheels and throws off the lame horse, and then
Turn on the left turn signal and drive in the right direction.
Probably the old man who could make the final decision is now dead.
Wearing armor, he died on the battlefield.
Pei Mao can indeed sit in the city without dragging his sick body into battle. Even if the city is finally broken, there is a high possibility that he will not be killed directly. However, Pei Mao still wears armor and risks arrows, swords and guns.
Fighting on the front line.
This may be the last lesson Pei Mao wants to leave to his people.
People, especially nobles, must first strengthen themselves and struggle, in order to gain the respect of others!
But unfortunately, not all members of the Pei clan are willing to learn from Pei Mao.
These children of the Pei family are willing to ask their subordinates to struggle, but they themselves do not want any struggle.
After all, struggling is really tiring.
It’s so easy to make sarcastic remarks, it’s so easy to ridicule those who do things, why do you have to do it yourself?
People who only want to be officials and don't want to work are not only found in Shandong.
Pei Ji simply didn't live in the city these days, but went to the city wall.
This prevented some complaints from reaching his ears.
But avoiding the problem won't solve it. The problem is still there, and it will get bigger and bigger.
He is the third child, and there is a second brother above him.
It's so ridiculous that in Anyi, which is now in dilapidated condition, there are still people fighting among themselves!
The Hussars came, and Cao Jun stopped attacking the city. As soon as the danger from the outside stopped, the internal fighting began immediately!
Those seven aunts, eight aunts, nine uncles, and ten uncles, who had never been on the city walls and had never even held a sword or a gun, now appeared one by one and said plausibly, "Look, what did I say before?"
Why are you working so hard? Isn't this hussar here? As a result, now the head of the family is fighting to death on the city wall. It's sad and deplorable! The most important thing for us now is to determine the position of the head of the family first! After all, a snake can't do without a head.
,A bird cannot fly without wings..."
Do they really care about the family?
Simply ridiculous.
But it happened that some of these people were older and were Pei Ji's elders.
Reason with them and they start talking emotionally.
When they start talking about feelings, they start talking about seniority!
When Xu Chu moved his troops, Pei Ji received a report from his own men on the remnant defenders of the city. However, due to the double mental and physical fatigue during this period, Pei Ji's brain could not react...
Until the roar of the artillery, Pei Ji suddenly woke up from his confusion as if he had been struck by lightning.
He also thought that the Hussar would most likely not take action so quickly, and would have to prepare for at least two or three days before slowly getting to the point.
"What?! This is artillery?!" Pei Ji crawled on the top of the city, staring at the smoke and dust rising from the artillery, looking at the flames erupting from the muzzle, and couldn't help but shudder, "How could there be such a power in the world?"
Something fierce?!』
When he saw the walls of Cao Jun's camp under Anyi City trembling, groaning, limp, and collapsing amidst the roar of artillery, Pei Ji couldn't help but feel an inexplicable pleasure, rising from the soles of his feet to the sky!
"Thief Cao! It's today too! Haha! Hahahaha!"
Pei Ji laughed and waved his arms, as if to cheer up those artillery pieces.
On top of the Anyi city, other remnant soldiers were shouting and dancing like Pei Ji.
But a moment later, when Pei Ji gradually came out of his excitement, he saw Xu Chu preparing to form a formation to attack...
"Well?"
Pei Ji was stunned for a moment.
No need for cavalry?
Looking from the top of the city, although there was smoke from artillery fire, Xu Chu could still see his cavalry deployed on the outside, while the infantry array was preparing to rush into Cao's camp.
Is this because he is worried about the traps in Cao Jun's camp?
Pei Ji was also familiar with the terrain around Anyi City.
"But if this happens..."
Pei Ji thought about it, and then suddenly trembled.
He hurriedly ran from one side of the city wall to the other.
"It's broken, it's broken!"
Pei Ji saw smoke and dust rising inside Cao Jun's camp, and it seemed that a large number of Cao Jun soldiers were being mobilized!
Obviously, Cao Jun is about to move out!
"Quick! Quick! Send the Hussars..."
Pei Ji shouted halfway before reacting. He had not made any communication agreement with the Hussars, so what method was used to send the signal?
Waving the flag and shouting?
It's hard to say that the Hussars thought they were cheering them up...
The golden gong sounded as a warning, but it was so far away and there was the roar of artillery. Who could ensure that the hussars could hear it?
So, sit back and do nothing?
no!
"Come here! Gather the men! We..." Pei Ji gritted his teeth and shouted, "We are ready to leave the city!"
"What? Going out of the city? Young Master, we...we can't come back after we go out!" said the old guard beside Pei Ji. As an old man in the Pei family, he knew the current situation very well.
There are some people in the city who are eager for Pei Ji to leave as soon as possible...
"We..." Pei Ji was silent for a moment. He touched the broken city wall and said, "Look at this city wall... Originally we thought that as long as the city wall was well repaired, all enemies could be blocked. But what happened? The city wall got bigger and bigger.
The more we break, the more we can repair it... The enemy did not defeat us, but we ourselves were torn apart... A dilapidated Anyi City, an Anyi City that has not yet been completely rescued, and a capital city that has not even had time to bury these wreckage and corpses
Anyi City... An Anyi City where even the head of the family has not yet been able to rest in peace... What is there that is worth fighting for? Is it worth their shame to snatch it now?!"
The hardest thing under the sky is not stone or steel, but the human heart.
Once the human heart hardens, it stinks more than stone and is colder than steel.
"A strong city wall... Haha, this is a strong city wall!" Pei Ji laughed and said, "They thought it was this city wall that blocked Cao's army and protected them! Look, look! Now these things that once made them afraid
What are Cao's soldiers doing?"
Looking from the perspective of the top of the city, inside the camp of Cao's army besieging Anyi below the city, the soldiers of Cao's army were running around and screaming in panic amidst the roar of artillery, like a group of ants on a hot pot.
The wall of the village was bombarded with concentrated artillery fire, and the entire wooden piles were whining, tearing, and flying.
Several cannonballs blasted into the camp, drawing several lines made of blood and fire.
In the face of hot weapons, those who were once strong appear so fragile.
And in the center of the camp, a double rabbit flag was swaying...
"If you sow crops in the spring, you will have a harvest in the autumn! If we sit back and watch today, then we won't blame the Qingqi for sitting back and watching tomorrow!" Pei Ji sneered, "If they want Anyi City, just give it to them! Go tell the people in the city,
If you are willing to leave, just follow me and rush out of the city! No need to take away any soft things! Those who are unwilling to leave... let them alone!"
