Anti Qing

Chapter 3 Artifacts
"Magnetic weather."

After everyone left, Li Zicheng stopped Liu Fangliang alone.

Liu Fangliang, who was about to leave, stopped when he heard the words, his fists tightened and then loosened, and finally he turned around.

"Your Majesty knows how powerful the Qing dog cavalry is. Tonight I will lead the elite cavalry to rob the camp and fight, but I can't take care of the little king Chuang!"

Li Zicheng looked at the backs of Liu Zongmin and others outside the hall, their sneers and comments just now echoed in the lobby of the General Military Mansion.

"How many people do you want?"

"One thousand veteran battalion elite riders."

Liu Fangliang replied angrily, but the anger in his heart was not lost at all.

This time the camp was almost dead, and having to bring such an oil bottle made it even worse. Now I am afraid that even I will not be able to escape unscathed.

"I'll give you [-] old battalion elite riders."

"Weapons in the pass, guns and armor, as long as you like it, you can choose it!"

Li Zicheng's change of attitude surprised Liu Fangliang.

The old battalion soldiers are the foundation of Li Zicheng's survival. They are the vicious old bandits passed down by the Ming and Qing troops. They are composed of veterans who have fought for many years and are extremely precious.

Since he has the best equipment and the most pay, he is loyal.

It is precisely by virtue of these old battalions who have moved with him for many years that Li Zicheng was able to suppress them repeatedly, and in a blink of an eye, he was able to respond to hundreds of thousands of people.

Li Zicheng's style has always been that he would rather abandon [-] refugees than give up an old battalion. Shanhaiguan was defeated and the old battalion of Dashun suffered heavy damage. This non-renewable resource is even more precious.

It can be seen that this time, he really wanted to keep Li Zijing.

The fighting power of the old battalion Jingqi is comparable to that of the Manchurian guards, not comparable to ordinary soldiers, and bringing 500 more soldiers is more useful than [-] refugees.

Li Zicheng paced back and forth for a few steps, his eyes deep.

"At present, the battle in Tongguan is tense, and Mizhi's hometown may not be guaranteed."

"To rob the camp tonight, we must bring our self-respect back alive, I only have this younger brother left."

After a knee-to-neck conversation, it showed that Li Zicheng was actually not optimistic about the night attack.

Liu Fangliang couldn't continue to shirk, and wanted to give Emperor Yongchang this face, so he clasped his fists and shouted.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Watching Liu Fangliang leave, Li Zicheng sighed heavily.

Outside the General Military Mansion, dark clouds are densely covered.

Discussion is only a stick of incense, and the night is getting darker.

"General Liu."

Li Zijing stepped into the magic hangar, and saw the burly Liu Fangliang at a glance.

This is the arsenal where the Tongguan Ming Army originally stacked firearms, knives, guns and armor. Liu Fangliang is replacing the original cloth face armor with cotton armor.

Night raid operations are mainly light and not easy to make noise, and the cotton armor of the frontier army is more suitable.

Liu Fangliang didn't stop moving his hands, and said casually.

"Is there a problem?"

Li Zijing showed it with a smile, expressing respect.

"Has General Liu heard of the Fire Dragon Divine Book?"

Liu Fangliang's tone was cold, as if he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.

"Never heard of it."

Li Zijing also knew that although Liu Fangliang was forced by Li Zicheng's coercion, he agreed not to make a direct raid, but Liu Fangliang had the final say on how to fight.

If he insisted on rushing to deliver it with someone just like in history, then Li Zijing really couldn't stop him.

Do your best, listen to destiny!

Li Zijing calmed down and said calmly.

"The Fire Dragon Divine Book is the military book of the Ming army. It specifically records two kinds of artifacts to rob camps, the Flying Cloud Thunderbolt Cannon and the Burning Sky Fierce Fire Cannon."

"I read in the book that Qi Jiguang used these two kinds of firearms to rob the camp many times back then, and he was not defeated. I think there must be something powerful about it. Our army robbed the camp. It is best to bring some when counting firearms."

Liu Fangliang in history was an extremely loyal person. After Li Zicheng died in Jiugong Mountain, he raised the banner of Lianming and firmly resisted the Qing Dynasty until his death in battle.

Li Zijing felt that as long as he spoke well, he would still follow the advice.

Liu Fangliang had already put on the whole set of cotton armor at this time, and covered it with a layer of black arrow clothing.

Only then did he narrow his eyes and looked Li Zijing up and down, but a half-smile soon appeared on his face.

"When did you learn to read?"

Li Zijing was startled suddenly, and suddenly realized that the original Mizhi peasant in history was actually illiterate, so he quickly held his breath and tried to appear normal.

"General Liu thinks that if I don't participate in the war on weekdays, what am I doing?"

Liu Fangliang was taken aback by the rhetorical question, but after thinking about it, she thought it was right.

After all, for many years, this little King Chuang has been staying in the camp and not participating in the war. He couldn't be sleeping all day long, right?
"understood."

Liu Fangliang's attitude has not changed much, and his response is to cherish words like gold.

Li Zijing was not surprised, after all, the original body has no size, and it is obviously difficult to convince the public with the title of "Little Chuang Wang" with no name.

Li Zijing shook his head, didn't have much hope, and walked out of the magic hangar.

It seems that I can only rely on myself, wait outside Tongguan, and then go to observe the location of the ambush of the Qing army!

Since Duoduo arranged an ambush in advance, there must be a loophole.

that night.

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

Li Zijing was wearing a black tunic and arrow jacket, and inside was the padded armor captured by soldiers in the Ming Dynasty. He leaned on a big rock outside the Jindou Pass, two miles away from the east gate of Tongguan, and slowly wiped his helmet.

Li Zijing looked into the distance from time to time, observing any disturbance in this area.

When I looked up, a gust of wind happened to blow past me.

Under the blurred loess, Li Zijing had no choice but to shield his eyes with a hat, only feeling that the sky was touching the ground one after another, and everything turned into a piece of earthy yellow.

The yellow sand rose all over the sky, wrapping a man and a horse in the loess.

Jindouguan is the east gate of Tongguan. If the Qing army wanted to attack Tongguan, they could only attack Jindouguan by force unless they crossed the [-]-mile-long Yuanwanggou.

Looking far away, there are mountains and mountains, peaks and peaks, deep valleys and cliffs, high mountains and narrow roads. There is a narrow path in the middle, which can only accommodate one car and one horse.

The terrain of Yuanwanggou is not conducive to the deployment of large troops, and the stepped soil plateau is a natural layer of barriers. The Dashun army can attack the Qing army that has passed the ditch from a condescending height.

Although there are some slow places in the ditch that people can pass through, unless you are a familiar local, it is easy to get lost and unable to get out.

During the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, Anlu Mountain abandoned Yuanwanggou and stormed Jindou Pass, but Gao Xianzhi was unable to hold on, and finally Anlu Mountain was defeated.

Duoduo was the leader of the inlaid white banner with outstanding military exploits in the Qing army, and he had a lot of experience in battle. He chose to camp in Pingchuan, a few miles west of Yuanwanggou, under Niutouyuan, about [-] miles away from the east gate of Tongguan.

Jindouguan, also known as Tongguan No. [-] Village, was built along the Yuanwanggou in the south and the Yellow River in the north. It was the first obstacle for the Qing army to enter Shaanxi.

During the day today, the [-] Dashun Army lined up outside Jindou Pass, wanting to concentrate their superior forces and take advantage of the danger of the pass city to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army.

However, from the Qing army's camp to the outside of Jindou Pass, there are corridors and ravines about five miles away, and the roads are not wide.

Duoduo was aware of this, so he couldn't hold out after arriving outside Tongguan.

Li Zijing knew what Duoduo was waiting for. He was waiting for Kong Youde's Hongyi Cannon.

In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, after all, it was the era of the rise of firearms. No matter how solid and steep the Xiongguan Pass was, it was difficult to resist the volleys of siege artillery.

In the Dashun army, all the light copper and iron cannons were seized by the Ming army in Guannei, and there were very few Flang machine guns.

After turning thousands of miles, the slightly heavier artillery was abandoned. Now the Dashun Army has no firearms that can threaten such a sharp weapon as the Hongyi Cannon.

Once thirteen days later, the red barbarian cannons of the Qing army arrived at Tongguan, and the Dashun army could only be beaten passively even though they had a dangerous pass.

To make Li Zicheng believe that taking the initiative to attack can win, tonight is the last chance, we must seize any movement, the sooner Duduo's ambush can be found, the better.

However, there are many ravines along the way from Yuanwanggou to the Qing army camp, and an ambush may be set up anywhere. Where will Duoduo set up the ambush?

A sound of slow footsteps came from the side, interrupting Li Zijing's slightly messy mood.

Liu Fangliang walked out from Jindouguan, leaning against Li Zijing with his arms folded, and saw him staring at the night sky for a moment, then turned his head to look over.

"I've seen it in the Shenhang Hangar. There are indeed these two kinds of old guns, and there are still many usable ones. I transported [-] guns each to the Yuanwang Ditch and hid them. Are they really useful?"

Li Zijing was also staring into the distance, and was taken aback when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, Liu Fangliang's face was indifferent at that time, but he secretly cared about it.

　"Fire Dragon Artifact Record Stealing Fire Dragon Artifact":
　　"The cannon is made of pig iron. It is as big as a bowl, as round as a ball, and holds half a liter of divine fire. It is fired from the mother cannon and flies into the barracks of the bandits. There is a thunderbolt, and the flames enter. If ten cannons are fired in a row, the camp will be full. They are all fires. Flying fire and sacred fire are used to burn grain stockades, and raging fire, poisonous fire, and rotten fire are used to burn people and horses. Use them at random, and the thieves will surely mess themselves up."

　　"The roll paper is a tube, and there are twenty or thirty tubes of Zhongzang Shenhuo. The fires are different, and they may fly, or walk (poison fire, magic fire), or jump, or leap (flying fire, fire-breathing), and when they meet food, they burn food. If you meet a thief, you will burn the thief, if you meet a horse, you will burn the horse, and send it to the bandit camp, where it will scatter with the wind and fly into your eyes. Since there is chaos, take advantage of this and fight hard, and great victories will be achieved."
