When the cannon appeared for the first time, the whole house was filled with excitement.
The terrifying destructive power is so terrifying that even Xu Ning and others are fierce men who have spent most of their lives on the battlefield.
At this moment, I was scared to death.
Zhao Kang was also very satisfied, with a smile on his face as he looked at the collapsed city wall.
The city walls in Yuanjiang County are all made of specially fired green bricks, cement ash, glutinous material and iron juice.
Even if it is not as good as the city walls made of reinforced concrete in later generations, it can be said to be extremely strong.
Even so, it was still destroyed by forty shots from this cannon, not to mention that Jing Guo looked strong.
In fact, most of them are city walls made of loess bricks.
Have you noticed that no one has made any move for a long time?
Zhao Kang looked back at Yu Chenggong and smiled and said, "General Yu? What are you waiting for? The enemy troops in the city are probably scared out of their wits now."
Only then did Duke Yu Cheng react. He was so frightened that he forgot how to mobilize his troops for a while.
It was Xu Ning who came to his senses first and said immediately, "The whole army goes out to kill the enemy invaders!"
"kill!"
Jingguo soldiers rushed towards the blasted passage.
Naturally, Xu Ning didn't need to charge into the battle. He turned around and walked to Zhao Kang quickly, grabbing the latter's hand and saying, "National Master!"
"Mr. Xu." Zhao Kang smiled.
Xu Ning was extremely excited: "National Master! You must promise me that this cannon will never be used against our Jingguo in the future!"
Xu Ning was a little scared. Although he had heard Zhao Kang mention the power of cannon countless times before, Xu Ning also knew that Zhao Kang was not an ordinary person.
But there was still some murmuring in my heart.
Now that he had truly seen the power of the cannon, Xu Ning had to admit that he was really a little scared.
If one day there is friction between Jingguo and Qianguo, Qianguo will
If someone pulls this cannon and attacks it, who can resist it?
Can people still have a strong city?
I haven’t heard anyone say that the whole country of Qian Kingdom is currently casting these cannons. In addition to these ten and the five that are about to be delivered, there are still twenty or thirty cannons in Qian Kingdom.
There will only be more and more in the future!
Zhao Kang: "What did Mr. Xu say? If Zhao Kang had this intention, why would he send this cannon to Jingguo?"
Zhao Kang smiled without caring, he knew what Xu Ning was worried about.
With such a terrifying weapon, people like Xu Ning who serve the country and the people would naturally feel worried for Jing Guo after seeing its power.
Xu Ning's eyes were surprised, and then he said even more excitedly, "What the Imperial Master means is that this cannon was sent to our Jingguo?"
Zhao Kang looked at Ye Hongxue beside him and said with a smile, "Of course, I have promised Hongxue a long time ago that no matter what good things Qian Guo has in the future, I will give some of them to Jing Guo. These are my betrothal gifts!"
The woman was deeply moved and held Zhao Kang's hand tightly. Xu Ning laughed loudly, "Okay, okay! Our Jingguo did not recognize you as our son-in-law in vain."
"What are you talking about, old general?" Ye Hongxue couldn't laugh or cry.
Xu Ning pretended to be confused, "Master Ye, the Imperial Master has sent all the betrothal gifts. Does Master Ye still want to return?"
"That's right! Mr. Xu, you have to make the decision for me when the time comes!" Zhao Kang added with jealousy.
Her cheeks were flushed, and although Ye Hongxue was a little shy, her heart was extremely sweet.
With the help of artillery, attacking a city is naturally extremely simple.
The enemy troops in the city had no time to resist, and were captured by Yu Chenggong and Chen Maokai.
They rushed in with their troops and killed them all.
The two generals had a great time today. After they came out, they reported the results of the battle and kept glancing at the cannons. Apparently, their hands were itchy and they wanted to enjoy themselves by firing a few cannons.
When everyone came to the military camp, everyone was very happy.
Zhao Kang said, "Next, you can go and persuade us to surrender."
Xu Ning ordered, "Cut off the heads of all the enemy troops defeated today, and let these damn barbarians take a good look at what will happen if they invade our great scene."
On the battlefield, the best way to intimidate the enemy is to build a Jingguan.
Thousands of human heads placed on top of it can scare people to death.
Chen Maokai clasped his fists and said, "I obey!"
Yu Chenggong said excitedly, "With the artillery of the Imperial Army, we will be able to regain all the lost territory in a short time!"
Zhao Kang shook his head and said, "Don't be too optimistic and careless." .??.
Chen Maokai was suspicious: "National Master, this cannon is so powerful, how can anyone resist it?"
Zhao Kang said, "Having said that, cannons have their flaws. First, the cannon is bulky and slow to move. Secondly, its effective range is within 600 steps. It cannot be accurate beyond this range."
"The speed is slow, so artillery is more afraid of cavalry charges, so when using cannon, you must build a condescending artillery position."
"It is not a problem to have a thousand artillery troops to operate the cannon, but you cannot rely on the cannon to rely on all your hopes. The force is unpredictable and the water is unpredictable. You should know this better than me."
Xu Ning nodded and sighed, "If most people had a cannon, they would have regarded all the heroes in the world as bandits. But you are still able to be careful and cautious. We all need to learn a lot from you."
"Xu
Gong Mu praised it."
Zhao Kang said modestly and said with a smile, "When our country of Qian develops hand cannons and matchlock guns, we will really be invincible in the world."
Chen Maokai asked with interest, "The National Master is saying that Qian Guo has other weapons similar to artillery?"
"We are working on ways to develop them. These things can all be called firearms."
Zhao Kang explained, "The battlefield now is a confrontation between cold weapons. The emergence of firearms is epoch-making and will change the pattern of the battlefield. It will not be too late."
Although everyone didn't quite understand, they were greatly shocked.
Zhao Kang added, "The leader behind this group of Jin soldiers is Xiao Feiyu. This guy is very scheming and has great cultivation. As his opponent, we must not be careless."
Xu Ning nodded, "The Imperial Master is right. Before the enemy can react, we must speed up the process and compress the enemy's range of activities."
Everyone responded with confidence.
With the threat of artillery, Xu Ning began to send people to persuade them to surrender. The besieged enemy troops were now without water and food, and panic arose.
Xu Ning sent people to build a deterrent in Jingguo, and after getting the guarantee from the people of Jingguo that they would not kill the prisoners.
Immediately, many enemy troops chose to surrender and no longer resisted stubbornly. This made Helian Wei, who was sitting at the rear, almost to death.
Seeing Jing Guo's unstoppable victory over one city after another, Helianwei gathered his army and prepared to fight Xu Ning to the death, when a letter was delivered to him.
The person who delivered the letter was the supervisor of the Jin army. Helianwei was extremely excited when he saw the contents of the letter.
"King Pingbei is back!"
The supervisor nodded and said, "The prince will personally command the entire army!"
Helianwei said excitedly, "Great, damn Jingguo people, just wait for me this time!"
