Chapter 39 The world's famous general Li Dingguo II

After Li Dingguo made a bloody alliance with these people, he let these toasts retreat.

The only one who did not retreat was Long Tianyou, the contemporary head of the Pu'an Long clan.

Li Dingguoxin had passed other toasts and dared to put them outside the city, because the territories of these toasts were in the rear. Their situation is not very urgent, and there is no need to choose immediately, but the territory of the Long Clan is the battlefield. Therefore, the possibility of the Long clan's defection, above the others, Li Dingguo must keep a close eye on the Long clan's people and prevent them from making any trouble.

At this moment, Sun Kewang was under the city of Pu'anzhou, looking at the city from afar.

Sun Kewang smiled lightly and said, "This small town can be broken with a snap of a finger. ”

Sun Kewang has also seen the wind and waves.

He saw it clearly.

This Pu'an Zhou City, placed in the Central Plains, is like a county seat. Sun Kewang followed Zhang Xianzhong, Lianke Dacheng, Lianwuchang, Chengdu, such a big city has also seen it, and now that he sees this small city of Pu'an, he naturally can't look down on it.

Sun Kewang sighed and said, "No matter what, Lone and the second brother are still brothers, and they can't see him die." ”

The following said: "King Qin's compassion, even if General Li's heart is like an iron stone, it should be transformed." ”

After Sun Kewang officially played the name of Yongli, he also changed and became His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Ming Dynasty, overseeing the soldiers and horses of the world. It can be said that Yongli is just a sacrifice, and the rest of the major events will be handed over to him. Even in the midst of the sacrifice, there was immediately a tablet of Zhang Xianzhong.

Come to think that the emperor of Yongli is a signboard.

However, this signboard is still quite useful, and as soon as it is played, at least all departments in southern Sichuan respond.

It's just that the ministries in southern Sichuan are not working now.

Yang Zhan's death planted the seeds of mutual distrust. It can be said that the concept of the Ming Army in southern Sichuan as a whole has died out. There is only someone left in a certain department. So although they responded to Sun Kewang, they expected them to help at that time, but it was another matter.

Sun Kewang listened to the people below, and really thought that he was extremely merciful and a good brother, so he sent people into the city to persuade him to surrender.

When the envoy saw Li Dingguo, he chattered a lot, but Li Dingguo didn't say a word, but pulled out his knife with his backhand and cut off the sleeve of his shirt, and asked the messenger to give it to Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang was immediately furious, and without saying a word, he sent people to attack the city.

The men and horses of all the tribes attacked from three sides, and in the city of Pu'an, it looked like countless ants climbing over.

Seeing this, Long Tianyou was shocked. said: "General, can we hold it in this way?" ”

Li Dingguo smiled faintly and said, "Peace of mind, it looks like it's huge, but Er'er, do you know what kind of cannon this is?" ”

Long Tianyou said: "General, please speak." ”

Long Tianyou is just a toast in the countryside, and he has never seen the Hongyi cannon. Li Dingguo said: "This is the battle of Ningyuan, the Hongyi cannon that killed the old slave, Yuan Chonghuan relied on eleven Hongyi cannons to repel the old slave's soldiers, and now we have more than 20 guns, why fear Sun Kewang?" ”

Even if Long Tianyou has no knowledge, he has heard of the battle of Ningyuan decades ago. I have also heard the name of the Hongyi cannon, and when I heard that it was the Hongyi cannon, I actually had some confidence in my heart, and the eyes of the twenty-three cannons were different.

It seems that it is not a cannon, but a god statue. There was a hint of reverence in his gaze.

Li Dingguo also sighed secretly in his heart, and sighed a little about the national strength of the Xia Dynasty.

Hongyi cannon is a rare thing, Li Dingguo followed Zhang Xianzhong across most of China, and it is also rare. Naturally, I understand their preciousness. But I never thought that after only a few years, the Xia army would be able to gather as many as a thousand cannons, and even in a secondary direction like Guizhou, there could be more than 20 cannons.

In particular, Li Dingguo knew that this method of casting cannons was proposed by Zhang Xuan, and he had a little more confidence in Zhang Xuan, and he believed that Zhang Xuan would definitely be able to calm the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, at this time, Li Dingguo had no intention of having more to do with Jiangnan's affairs. He focused his attention on the eyes.

Li Dingguo said: "Wear armor for me." ”

"Yes." Li Dingguo's personal soldiers began to put on armor for Li Dingguo and tidy up all the horses. Li Dingguo had a horse team of 500 people under his command. It was used by Li Dingguo as an assault force.

Speaking of which, Zhang Xuan is really good to Li Dingguo, and he has assigned more than 10,000 people to Li Dingguo, although there are not many, but the quality can be guaranteed, all of them are experienced in a hundred battles, and all kinds of talents are available, cavalry generals, infantry generals, are masters of artillery.

These are all talents accumulated by Zhang Xuan in actual battles.

If it weren't for these suitable talents, Li Dingguo would not dare to have such a bold plan today.

"Fire." An artillery general at the head of the city said loudly. The red flag waved in his hand. Twenty-three Hongyi cannons opened fire one after another.

Cannonballs were fired from the walls.

The effective range of the Hongyi cannon is several miles away, and with the condescending position of Pu'an Prefecture, this range is even farther. The artillery of the Xia army deliberately put it closer, and when the Ming army arrived at the place outside the city, they suddenly opened fire, and the shells smashed into the crowd, and no object could stop it, and instantly hit a flesh alley.

Since the fire was fired, the Xia artillery threw off their arms and worked hard.

A gun crew plus a substitute driver and so on, there were about a dozen people. They all work together. Desperately firing the cannon, almost a minute or two is a shell. Although this speed was not considered first-class at the time, it was enough on this battlefield.

In a few moments, the cannon rained down hundreds of shells into the crowd.

This is to uphold Li Dingguo's order, and smash the Ming army in one breath at all costs.

For a moment, the heavens and the earth were enveloped by the rumbling sound of cannons, and there was no other sound. Suddenly, the sound of the cannon stopped, and countless screams and moans suddenly filled the ears.

This is not Li Dingguo's order, but the artillery crew loves the artillery.

Although with the advent of the iron mold casting cannon method, the popularity of cannons has increased greatly. The Hongyi cannon has lost its status as an important weapon of the country, but it is still a first-class treasure in the army. The artillery could not have cherished the artillery the most.

At this moment, the continuous rapid firing made the temperature of the cannon rise, although it can continue, but if it hits again, there will be wounded artillery, so they naturally have to stop, fetch water one by one, wipe the cannon with a wet towel little by little, and white smoke comes out everywhere they pass. In a moment, the towel became hot.

Replace it immediately and wipe it again.

Honestly. The iron mold casting cannon method creates a cannon, which is a little bit different in quality than the clay mold cannon. However, in warfare, sometimes quantity is more important than quality.

"Kill." The gate of Pu'an Prefecture was wide open, and Li Dingguo, with the cavalry around him, rushed out.

This shelling made the men and horses of the Ming army attacking the city experience as if it were purgatory, and they had already been torn apart. It's just that under the shroud of artillery, the back may not be as safe as the front, and they don't even escape. At this moment, the cannon suddenly stopped. Li Dingguo led his troops to chase after him.

Although there were few people, it was only five hundred horses. But these people seemed to wake up from a dream, and immediately turned their heads and ran, and for a while someone had an avalanche.

Li Dingguo had already calculated this.

In fact, Li Dingguo can send the following people to pursue this time, Li Dingguo insists on leading the troops to attack, and he has a feeling of wanting to stand up.

Li Dingguo's headquarters, although they listened to him, but these people were all from Zhang Xuan's line. Their obedience to Li Dingguo is based on their trust in Zhang Xuan, not how much they respect Li Dingguo.

But this situation is not an advantage in the war, the general has no prestige in the army, and at the critical moment, it is possible to make mistakes, so Li Dingguo wants to personally experience the prestige of Liwei, let the Xia army look at him Li Dingguo, the plan is not to eat white rice, he can be worthy of Zhang Xuan's praise.

At this moment, Li Dingguo swept the audience, and his eyes suddenly gathered under a big flag, and on this big flag, a big word "Qin" was written. Li Dingguo knew that Sun Kewang was. Li Dingguo secretly said in his heart: "Since we have met, how can I not greet my eldest brother." ”

immediately led the crowd down, and the long knife was only pointed at Sun Kewang.
