Fu Song

Chapter 653 Large-scale Use of Gunpowder Weapons

Lu Ben'an was riding a tiger and couldn't get off.

Minquan and Ningling encountered powerful attacks in the two directions at the beginning, but he was invincible in the middle. In his opinion, this was caused by the uselessness of Zhao Jun and Qi Jun.

As for his [-] headquarters, because there are more than [-] Gongfen troops in it, the combat effectiveness is naturally much higher.

It wasn't until Chen Tiansong from the direction of Ningling came to report that the people standing in front of him were Tian Zhen's troops who were supposed to be stationed in the Xiapi area, and Lu Ben'an became alert.

By this time, he had penetrated too far forward.

New general flags of the Song army appeared one after another around him, and what stood in front of him was no longer the previously estimated number of more than [-] Song troops. According to the general flag, there were at least [-] people, which was basically the same as his headquarters. up.

The appearance of the high-character banner made Lu Ben'an understand that he had fallen into a trap.

All the actions of Song Jun in the direction of Jingdong are just a cover, and their main force is here.

Gao Yingxiang wanted to take himself down completely.

Just when Lu Benan was struggling with whether to retreat or fight, Xie Bao from the right wing helped him make up his mind first.

Xie Bao had a fierce battle with Wei Wu's Baiyu army in civil rights, and then was defeated. The remnants of them are heading towards their own headquarters in a rout.

If Jie Bao hadn't collapsed, he could retreat calmly.

Now that Xie Bao collapsed, the flanks and rear were all exposed in front of Song Jun, and it was only a dream to withdraw smoothly.

A day later, Chen Tiansong of the left wing was also defeated.

Chen Tiansong simply ran away.

With the remaining thousands of people, they headed towards Jinan in a hurry, even the coach didn't care about him.

This made Lu Benan's teeth itch with anger.

After I go back, I must give this Chen Tiansong a good look.

Since it is impossible to evacuate smoothly, there is only one way left, to fight to the death with the opponent, defeat the opponent, and then go.

If Chen Tiansong can gather with him, then his strength can be further strengthened, and the possibility of defeating the opponent will increase by one point. This guy is good, he ran away!
Sure enough, he was as treacherous and cunning as Liu Yu.

On the contrary, Jie Bao still has some backbone.

In fact, Xie Bao also wanted to come here, they are all veterans who have been in the field for a long time. At this time, anyone can find out that there is a big problem.

It's just that Wei Wu moved too fast, Jie Bao didn't have time to run away.

Ning Lingxiang Tian Zhen didn't expect Chen Tiansong to be so clever, and things went wrong, so he ran away immediately.

In Tian Zhen's image, at this time, you are a partial teacher, shouldn't you go to save the coach?
But Chen Tiansong didn't want to go.

Tian Zhen was very depressed when he ran away.

Gao Shuai's plan to destroy the enemy's vital forces was torn apart by himself, and Chen Tiansong ran away with seven or eight thousand people!

"If you want to eat me in one bite, you won't be afraid of breaking your stomach!" Under the setting sun, Lu Ben'an looked at the Song Army's camp in the distance and sneered. "Traps can trap hunting dogs and lone wolves, but can they trap tigers and lions? Let me show you how real Daliao men fight."

Although he fell into a predicament, Lu Benan did not panic.

From the bottom of his heart, he still looked down on Song Jun.

This contempt is sent from the bone. …

Over the years, in serious battles on the battlefield, the Song army was able to take advantage of the Liao people, which is really very rare.

Over the years, only one Xiao Ding has emerged.

Other frontier troops such as Guangxin and Anyu just fought with the Liao army.

What's more, even Tokyo was conquered by Daliao. The two emperors and a group of ministers are now herding sheep in Wuguocheng!
"You have carefully laid out a net, but look how I tore your net to pieces!" Lu Ben'an took the reins, and the horse ran towards the camp lightly.

The sunset slowly set, leaving the last ray of sunlight on the high-character banner in the distance.

The reason why Lu Ben'an has such confidence is because he still has two treasures in his hand.

One of them is that before the battle, he had already dispatched a [-]-man cavalry detour to attack Sui County. Possibly conceal his whereabouts.

It was originally hoped that they would be able to raid the enemy's logistics camp in Sui County, but now it seems that it has turned out to be a wrong attack.

He believed that the commanding general, his own younger brother Lu Benxi, had this awareness, and after discovering the changes in the battlefield situation, he would lead three thousand cavalry straight into the battlefield from the rear.

The two armies are facing each other, evenly matched, and a new force is suddenly killed from the rear. How will the opponent feel?
The second magic weapon is of course a gift from the Empress Dowager Chengtian.

gunpowder.

Gunpowder has always been around, but it wasn't long before gunpowder was powerful enough to be used as a weapon.

Liao people can be said to be heartbroken about gunpowder weapons.

Because their emperor, Yelujun, was injured by gunpowder and died young due to lingering internal injuries.

The most speechless thing was that those assassins didn't go after Yelujun back then, they wanted to kill Zhang Chao, but in the end, it was Yelujun who suffered the catastrophe.

Therefore, the Liao Kingdom has been working hard to study gunpowder weapons.

Drug hair puppets are not uncommon, but how to make drug hair puppets that look harmless to humans and animals into murderous weapons is a big problem.

But hard work pays off. Although the Empress Dowager Chengtian only knows a little bit, it is enough for Daliao, which has gathered countless talents in this field.

Over the past few years, the power of gunpowder developed by Daliao has finally achieved the desired effect.

Of course, the technicians who made gunpowder and the handymen were all firmly controlled by the Empress Dowager Chengtian.

As the loyal confidant of the Empress Dowager Chengtian, it was not difficult for the Lu family to obtain some gunpowder from the Gunpowder Manufacturing Bureau in Zhongjing.

It's just that compared with the people of Song Dynasty, they are still inferior.

For example, the artillery made by the Song people, Daliao can't make it for the time being.

But as long as there is a model, Daliao will chase after him.

You have it, so do I.

Even if it is less powerful, it doesn't matter.

I have brave soldiers who can make up for the part that is lacking.

As far as Lu Benan knew, the Gunpowder Manufacturing Bureau in Zhongjing was working hard to make more powerful gunpowder, so that people died almost every day.

With the size of Daliao, one day it will surpass you. …

A decisive battle is inevitable tomorrow, and Gao Yingxiang knows this very well.

Lu Benan will not sit back and watch the enemies on the left and right flanks wrap up, he will try to defeat himself in the shortest time possible, as long as he defeats his central army, the enemies on the two wings will not be feared.

Gao Yingxiang appreciated the courage of his opponent.

Therefore, he is also prepared to give the opponent the greatest respect.

When the rooster cries, the world is white.

When the sky was just showing a hint of white belly, Song Jun had already started to file out of the camp.

The battle between Song and Liao continued the old tradition.

That is Liao Gong and Song Shou.

In the distance, the Liao army seemed to be eating their last meal before the battle.

I don't know when the next meal will be served, and I don't know if I haven't had a chance to eat the next meal, so the meal before the war is usually very rich. Both sides even prepared a meal for each of their soldiers. Bowl of wine.

When the first ray of sunlight was projected on the battlefield, the drums of both sides were already earth-shattering.

The overwhelming cavalry swarmed in.

The cavalry of the puppet Zhao rushed to the forefront.

Don't look at Zhao Guo's current situation is declining, and he loses again and again, but he still retains a large number of cavalry, otherwise, it would be impossible to escape from Wei Wu.

In front of the infantry lineup of the Song Army, bronze cannons showed hideous faces.

Not many, just forty doors.

With the officer's hoarse order, the forty bronze doors opened fire one by one from left to right.

Smoke shrouded the position, Huo Zhi spewed out, countless iron pellets, iron sand, iron flakes and even stones were spewed out of the gun barrel by strong force, roaring and flying towards the battlefield, falling towards the cavalry who came rushing.

To deal with such a large-scale group attack, these iron pellets are more powerful than solid bullets.

Seeing the cavalrymen falling one by one, Luben'an still looked normal.

This is to be expected.

The Song army has such artillery, which has appeared on the battlefield several times.

At first, on the Han River, Jiang Xiong's fleet defeated Liu Zheng with artillery.

The cannons at that time were still made of wood and would not be used a few times.

A year ago, Wei Wu attacked Xiayi, and the artillery that finally blasted through the gate of Xiayi was again, but this time it became bronze.

You have it, and soon we will have it too.

Lu Benan said silently in his heart.

Artillery does have a long range and great lethality, but the rate of fire is not fast.

Therefore, as long as the horse is fast enough, it can reach the front of the formation.

Of course, in addition to artillery, the Song Army also had crossbows and divine arm bows.

Weapons with different ranges are matched far and near, keeping the cavalry who came wave after wave forever on the road.

And those lucky cavalry, after crossing life and death lines one after another, finally collided heavily with the infantry line of the Song Army.

After the cavalry came the onslaught of infantry.

It was still Zhao Jun.

As the servant army of the Liao people, at this time, it is natural to have the consciousness of being used as cannon fodder.

Of course, there is no room for them not to move forward, because the supervising team of the Liao army is watching them, and any cowardly behavior will be greeted with a saber. …

Lu Ben'an silently calculated the interval between the opponent's artillery, and it was impossible to fire them all the time. In the gunpowder manufacturing bureau in Zhongjing, the imitation copper cannons often exploded.

There should be a limit.

When Xie Bao approached Lu Benan with a sad face, the sun had already risen high.

And the headquarters of the Liao army finally began to move forward.

The artillery on the opposite side did not sound again.

A smile appeared on Luben's face.

It's my turn.

Among the thousands of cavalrymen of the Liao army who charged, there were more than a hundred confidant warriors of the Lu family headquarters.

Their horse has a bag containing small jars made of ceramics.

Wearing heavy armor, they braved the rain of arrows from the Song army, and moved forward!

Then, they ignited the fuse on the small pot, and threw the small pot vigorously at the densely packed lineup of Song Army infantry.

The violent explosion made Gao Yingxiang change color.

The successive explosions finally opened the infantry defense line that the Liao army cavalry had not broken through before, and the Liao army cavalry rushed in.

Gao Yingxiang's face turned livid.

Damn, that didn't count.

But do you think this will work?
Mr. Gao has been fighting for nearly twenty years, how can he only have this idea!

On the Onyx River, Zhang Ren was sitting on the ground leaning on a saber, and two soldiers hurriedly removed the stomach of the armor on his body.

He had just carried two sticks of incense on the bridge, and now it was Zhou Quan's turn to carry them, so Zhang Ren hurriedly treated the wound on his body.

Even with the cover of a stomach, every injury is not too serious, but too much bleeding is fatal.

Special alcohol was splashed on the wound, and Zhang Ren, who was still under the knife, screamed out, making the two soldiers who treated the wound tremble for a while. People are terrified.

Disinfection, hemostasis, application of medicine, bandaging, a series of operations were completed, almost two sticks of incense, and two soldiers helped him put on the stomach again.

Put the rotten ones aside, and put on the good ones from the dead brothers.

Zhou Quan retreated, and another general stepped forward.

Zhou Quan retreated, and the end was not much better than Zhang Ren.

Zhang Ren then watched the process that had just been applied to him happen again on Zhou's body.

This team will not hold up.

He was slapped in the head by a tall and burly Liao army with a mace.

Zhang Yiren jumped up and rushed up with the knife in his hand. When the Liao people were about to break through the next parapet, he appeared there.

The Liao people were attacking desperately.

On the bridge and under the bridge, the corpses of the Liao people were piled up everywhere.

There are also quite a few brave and fearless guys who actually rode their horses down the river from the upper reaches, trying to float down the river to the opposite bank, but the turbulent river swept them to the bottom of the river in a blink of an eye. Zhou Quan and Zhang Ren just wanted to say God bless.

If it was the docile Agate River before, I'm afraid they would all be finished by now.

But now, they only need to guard a bridge.

No matter how many enemies there are, only a few dozen can come up at a time.

If there were more of them, the crossbows placed on both sides of the strait would let them experience what it means to give away a head.

The only terrible thing is that there are too many enemies.

Fighting for half a day, without end.

Even after rounds of fighting, Zhang Ren felt very tired.

Now they just hope that the reinforcements will come sooner.

From the moment they discovered the Liao army, they sent people out to ask for help.The guy took a horse, and two mules galloped away.

This battle in Sui County is destined to be recorded in the annals of history.

Because of this battle, serious large-scale firearms were used on the battlefield.

Although these firearms can only be said to be the most primitive things, they are the beginning of another era.

After both combatants have seen the great role of thermal weapons in combat, the pursuit of more powerful gunpowder weapons will inevitably promote its development to a great extent.

This is especially the case when the two largest countries in the world regard this matter as a matter of urgency and have launched fierce competition.
