The Xia army, the Ming army, and the million-strong army opened a decisive battle in Liaoxi, and the troops of the two great princes were extremely large, covering the entire battlefield.

Chutian asked Cao Cao and Zhou Yafu to serve as the left and right wings, and personally faced the Liaodong Army in Mingguan in the front.

The Ming army on the opposite side could not see the end at a glance, and the black pressure was overwhelming.

In the whole of East Asia, except for Chutian, Mingguan had the most powerful cavalry corps.

"300,000, or 400,000?"

The last time Chu Tian fought with a cavalry of this size, the enemy was Genghis Khan Temujin.

Now, Chu Tian was once again facing a massive number of cavalry.

On the opposite side, there are many cavalry such as Guanning Iron Cavalry, Hongwu Cavalry, and Longcheng Iron Cavalry.

Chutian's Praetorian Guard Legion, with the Shenji Battalion and the Women's Legion as the Chinese army.

Catherine's reinforcements served as reserves.

"The Qing Army's Redcoat Cannon......"

Chu Tian already knew Mingguan's hole cards in advance.

The redcoat cannon is an imitation of the naval guns used by Western warships in the 16th century, which can cause considerable damage to wooden planks.

If hit, the consequences can be imagined.

However, Mingguan may not have the production blueprints of the red-coated cannon, and it is very likely that it is only a consumable prop.

After all, Chu Tian hadn't heard of any lord possessing this special firearm.

As a player, Chu Tian was naturally full of awe of firearms.

Two armies spread out, and both sides threw in large armies, both looking for opportunities.

Groups of soldiers and horses occupy the dangerous terrain and confront each other.

Mingguan laid thirty red-coated cannons on a higher place, and the Qing artillerymen were deployed in the artillery position by Mingguan, and Hong Chengchou, the general of the Ming army who was obtained from the Battle of Songjin, led a team of infantry and cavalry, responsible for protecting the artillery.

"With Chu Zimou's character, once the red-clothed cannon is powerful, he can't wait to send a cavalry to attack the artillery position."

When Ming Guan deployed the redcoat artillery, it seemed that he could already foresee what would happen in the future.

Nine times out of ten, Chu Tian will use the cavalry of cold weapons to harvest the artillery position.

The relatively primitive red-coated cannons, which were attacked head-on by the cavalry, and the gunners were simply unable to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

"Kong Youde, you and Hong Chengchou are guarding the red-clothed cannon together. Eight banners of the Han army, four of which are handed over to you. ”

In order to protect the red-coated artillery, Mingguan gave about 40,000 troops to Hong Chengchou and Kong Youde, which could not only guard the artillery position, but also serve as an attack force.

Hong Chengchou was the chief general of the Ming Army in the Battle of Songjin, although he was not a first-class general such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, but he was also a second-rate general.

The red-coated artillery was deployed on the flank, and Hong Chengchou looked at the Xia army's position not far away.

In the battle of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, the red-coated artillery will definitely not be able to cover the entire battlefield, and may only threaten tens of thousands of people, so Mingguan does not fully expect that thirty red-coated cannons can decide the victory.

These thirty red-coated cannons were used by Mingguan to deal with the Xia army on the right, that is, Cao Cao's army.

Murong Ba and Murong Ke led the soldiers and horses of the Murong Xianbei tribe as the main force, and the red-clothed artillery provided deterrence and cover.

"How powerful is the redcoat cannon?"

Although the Murong Xianbei tribe represented by Murong Ba and Murong Ke had rebellion, they were always afraid of the pressure of Mingguan and did not dare to really rebel.

Now Mingguan suddenly took out a hole card to deter the Xianbei cavalry.

Murong Xianbei had never seen a red-clothed cannon, and could only see dozens of cold and hollow bronze cannons, aimed in the direction of the Xia army.

This is a firearm from the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it has not been used since Ming Guan brought it back.

"It is said that any fierce general, who is hit head-on by a red-coated cannon, will be killed nine times out of ten."

Murong Ba still has confidence in his own force, but Mingguan's words shocked Murong Ba, even if he is standing in front of the red-clothed cannon, he is expected to die immediately if he is attacked by the red-clothed cannon.

"On the other side seems to be Cao Mengde's tiger and leopard ride."

Murong Ke was always observing the Xia Jun on the other side.

Familiar opponents.

Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry competed with the Murong family's Longcheng iron cavalry, and the two sides were like fire and water.

The combination of Cao Cao, Xun You, and Guo Jia and Murong Ba and Murong Ke have come and gone, and it is difficult for anyone to achieve significant results.

"The Dragon City Iron Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard are riding between the two of them, and we can only hope that the red-clothed cannon can open up the situation."

Just as Cao Cao had a big headache for Murong Ba's Dragon City Iron Cavalry, Murong Ba was also very jealous of Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Cao Cao didn't know how unlucky he would be.

Cao Cao received an order from Chutian that he wanted all the generals to guard against the red-coated cannons of the Ming army.

"What redcoat cannon?"

Cao Cao received the order and was confused.

Cao Cao had already seen the arquebuses of the Shenji Battalion, but the Shenji Battalion was not equipped with bronze cannons, so the vast majority of the generals of the Chutian forces did not know about the existence of the red-clothed cannons.

"I heard that it is a firearm that is more powerful than a bed crossbow, and since the lord wants us to be more vigilant, then we must be careful."

Guo Jia followed Cao Cao from Jixian to Liaoxi, and it was precisely because Guo Jia and Xun You were giving advice to Cao Cao that Cao Cao was not framed by Murong Ke.

Cao Cao disagreed: "Murong Ba's Dragon City Iron Horse and Murong Ke's Serial Iron Horse, in my opinion, are more threatening than this red-clothed cannon." The Dragon City Iron Cavalry has extremely high attack power, and the phalanx composed of chain iron horses is indestructible, and the two iron cavalry cooperate with each other to dominate the world, even the tiger and leopard cavalry are difficult to beat. ”

Cao Cao suffered a lot under Murong Ba and Murong Ke.

Even Ran Min, the martial mourning heavenly king, could not break through Murong Ke's chain iron horse, which shows the defensive power of the chain iron horse.

Murong Ba is the sharpest spear of the Xianbei tribe, and Murong Ke is the strongest shield.

If you look at it in terms of scale, Cao Cao's words are not bad, because the direct casualties caused by dozens of red-clothed cannons to the Xia army are definitely not as good as tens of thousands of high-level heavy cavalry.

Dozens of red-clothed cannons could damage thousands of Xia troops at most, and the cavalry of Murong Ba and Murong Ke could completely cause tens of thousands of casualties to the Xia army.

"However, the red-coated cannon shouldn't be that simple, could it be a tenth-order class?"

Chu Tian deployed the entire decisive battle position at a high place and arranged the troops.

The red-clothed cannon owned by Mingguan didn't seem to be simple in Chu Tian's opinion.

In Lords, each class has its own panel and identity.

If it is the same as reality, dozens of bronze cannons are indeed not enough to change the outcome of the battle of millions of soldiers and horses, after all, the Chutian forces have many elites, and they will not be frightened by the red-clothed cannons.

However, it is precisely because each class has its own abilities that this is the scary place.

Even the ironclad war elephant is systematically divided into ninth-order troops, with characteristics such as "defense specialization" and "rage".

The red-coated cannon is theoretically also a class, and the gunners of the red-coated cannons are likely to be tenth-order troops.

Chu Tian hadn't seen a tenth-order class yet.

"Wait, if I defeat Mingguan, maybe this batch of red-coated cannons will fall into my hands...... It would be nice to have blueprints for the Red Cannon, production buildings, and corresponding classes. ”

Chu Tian couldn't help but blush at this elite army.

Chutian's forces do not lack cavalry, nor do they lack foot soldiers, and there is a lot of demand for long-range troops.

It is said that the United States of America, which is a civilized region, is famous for its firearms.

If Chu Tian wants to defeat the American Civilization Zone, he naturally needs a batch of firearms as a long-range weapon to counterbalance.

Although the redcoat cannon imitated the European-style marine artillery, after all, it was localized and was one of the top firearms in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"It's really unbelievable that a lord in the Eastern Han District actually got artillery."

Ekaterina was also a little incredulous when she learned that the enemy army on the opposite side had artillery.

The first lord to obtain artillery appeared in the Eastern Han District, and was obtained by the lord of the Eastern Han District in the form of a copy of the loot.

"It seems that I underestimated the epic battle last time, and many lords have gained something interesting......"

It was probably because the battle of Kunyang followed Liu Xiu, the son of the plane, and it was too smooth, so Chutian did not think much of the fifth epic battle.

In fact, depending on the civilization and time of the dungeon they participate in, each lord can always get some strange items and rewards.

The trait "Son of the Plane" obtained by Chu Tian can be regarded as a strange trait, which is one of the strangest traits in "Lord", and has no clear effect.

In addition to Chutian and Mingguan, the other lords actually got some strange things.

"What rewards did you get in the last epic battle?"

Chutian was suddenly interested in the battle in which Catherine participated.

Catherine is also a high lord and is eligible to participate in the Fifth Epic Battle, so it stands to reason that Catherine should also have a reward.

"It's a secret."

Catherine did not answer Chu Tian directly.

Chu Tian frowned slightly.

He has not had a chance to look at Catherine's panel until now.

Catherine, as the empress of Tsarist Russia, has accumulated a background in twelve years, which should be quite exaggerated, at least not as simple as it seems.

In the future, we have to find a way to find out the bottom of Catherina.

"Will Mingguan deploy the red-coated cannon in the middle, or on the flanks? It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the Eastern Army liked to deploy bronze artillery in front of the Chinese army, and a burst of bombardment would undermine the morale of the opponent, and then advance on foot. Western armies like to deploy bronze artillery on the flanks. ”

Mingguan's deployment of the army is confidential, and even Chutian's spies can't get the deployment of the Ming army, so they can only guess the location of the red-coated artillery deployed by Mingguan according to the situation.

Mingguan is a player, so he doesn't use Eastern or Western habits rigidly, making it even more elusive.

This is also the reason why many civilized areas are dominated by players, because players take advantage of them to a large extent.

Players in the Eastern Han Dynasty did not necessarily use only Eastern tactics, but sometimes they also used Western tactics, or nomadic tactics.

The Xia army and the Ming army continued to assemble, and all the main army corps were already arrayed.

The battlefield in western Liaoning was slaughtered.

In Guzhu City, the guard general Sun Chuanting found that the offensive of the Xia army had suddenly slowed down, and he was keenly aware that his lord Ming Guan was about to fight to the death with the Xia King, otherwise the Xia army, which had been storming Guzhu City recently, would not suddenly stop attacking the city.

Both the siege troops of the Xia army and the defenders of Guzhu City are waiting for the results of the decisive battle.

The winning side of the decisive battle has everything, while the losing side has nothing.

At this time, the ownership of Lonely Bamboo City is no longer important, and the victory or defeat of the decisive battle is crucial.

Geng Yi and Cheng Yu, who were in charge of attacking the inner city of Guzhu City, stopped their offensive and confronted Sun Chuanting, while also waiting anxiously.

Except for the two of them, the other generals were basically transferred to participate in the decisive battle.

"This battle may decide the ownership of the northern part of the Han Empire. If the lord wins, then it is basically only a matter of time before Liaodong and Guanzhong are pacified. Liaodong may collapse because of the defeat in this battle. ”

As a strategist, Cheng Yu is very clear about the situation.

The three major princes of the north, two of whom fought a decisive battle, and the victor will be even stronger.

In order to storm Liaodong City, the Xia army lost many soldiers and horses, in order to induce the Liaodong army in Mingguan to fight a quick battle head-on.

In addition to the princes within the Han Empire, the lords of other civilization regions are also paying attention to the progress of the Han Empire's northern war.

They didn't want a big conqueror to appear in the Han Empire so soon, otherwise the civilization around the Han Empire would be under too much pressure.

In the waters of Luzon, the new shogun, Oda Nobunaga, commanded the Toei Naval Division, attacked Manila, the royal city of Luzon, and engaged in a broadside battle with the Luzon Naval Division.

Two medium-sized civilizations clash next to the suzerain, and the suzerain's internal war makes it impossible to intervene in the big war between them for a while.

The Shimazu family samurai from Kyushu Island cut down the Luzon soldiers on the deck, and the Shimazu family carried a katana, killed dozens of people in a row, and almost single-handedly cleaned half of the deck.

The size of the warships of Dongying and Luzon cannot be compared with the warships of the Han Empire, but the two civilizations are-for-tat, and no one can benefit in terms of ship size.

The expeditionary force sent by the Oda shogunate, however, relied on the bravery of the samurai to defeat the fleet of the Luzon Kingdom in a broadside battle.

Oda Nobunaga stood atop the largest of the ships, Ataka, his eyes reflecting the light of the fire on the sea.

He was not an opponent of the Han Empire, so he could only bring the daimyos of Dongying to bully Luzon and divert the internal contradictions in the civilization area.

Waging war abroad and diverting internal contradictions was a common means used by lords.

In the Macedonian kingdom, Alexander was also concerned about what he considered his most powerful opponent, Chutian's every move.

"Liaoxi of the Han Empire...... If one day, I can go on an expedition to Liaoxi to be called the emperor. ”

Alexander learned from the player that Liaoxi is tens of thousands of miles away from Macedonia, and that he can only use the teleportation array to expedition to Liaoxi.
