Chapter 615

Riding on a fine horse, he was dressed in general armor and had a strong self-confidence on his face. At this moment, Godan under Vientiane city was satisfied and looked arrogant.

On the side of Ge Dan is fan Yuhai, the former Jiaozhi famous general. This man who has been defeated and fought repeatedly is like a ghost. He always makes the right choice on the battlefield and has escaped the pursuit and punishment of mercenaries again and again.

This time Siam sent troops, fan Yuhai followed and brought five thousand elite cavalry under him.

After being eliminated layer by layer, the remaining 5000 people are undoubtedly the elite of the elite. If Yang Chendong's evaluation standard is used, it has impressively exceeded the standard of the second-class army and is moving towards the first-class strong army.

"General fan, how long can our army break through this Vientiane city?" with an arrogant look, Ge Dan raised his neck when he spoke. It seems that if he doesn't do so, it won't be enough to match his identity.

"Brother general, the Siamese troops are all elite troops, just a small Vientiane City, which can be won in less than three days." fan Yuhai's face shows a gentle and light color. It seems that he is even a little low-key, far less publicized than Godan, but even so, he also has a shining light on his body, which can't be underestimated.

"Ha ha." listening to fan Yuhai's answer, Ge Dan burst out laughing, "OK, I'll borrow general fan's good words. Come on, the whole army will charge and strive to attack Vientiane City in three days. You can rob the city for one day at that time."

The so-called day of robbing the city means that the heart can be robbed by soldiers at will within one day after breaking the city. As long as it is robbed, it is their own and does not need to be turned over. This is a special reward for the soldiers below.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

After hearing the benefits promised by the general, the soldiers shouted loudly one by one, breaking out a strong sense of war and morale.

On the South Tower of Vientiane City, Luan Xiaochen, governor of Laos, is holding out his arm to the battlements. His eyes are firm and look at the 100000 Siamese troops under the city.

The Siamese army appeared much faster than Luan Xiaochen imagined. But he is not afraid, not to mention the strong confidence brought by Yang Chendong, that is, he also has a strong self-confidence at the moment. The source of all this is the cold front of a company beside him, the auxiliary soldiers of two battalions and 10000 Lao mercenaries led by general he Guang.

With a strong city to block and more than 10000 strong troops around, Luan Xiaochen has no reason to be afraid of 100000 Siamese troops. Not to mention, what happened here will soon reach the ears of the sixth young master. He only needs to hold on for a while, and the reinforcements will arrive. That is the time of victory.

"Everyone is ready for battle. The cold front and auxiliary soldiers aim at the fight. Whoever dares to get close to the catapult will kill his dog." Luan Xiaochen, who is only 18 years old, stands under the city tower, with his face shining like a sea of war. He had the experience of training auxiliary soldiers when he was in chixian city. He also participated in the war as a political teacher during the battle of Ryukyu Island. He is no longer a little white in the war. At this moment, he is not afraid, but has a full sense of war and momentum.

After receiving the order, the cold front and auxiliary soldiers on the tower immediately looked for the most grasping shooting position and aimed at the catapult that was slowly pushing forward.

The stone catapult, which has long been a sharp weapon for attacking the city, has always been a necessary tool for attacking the fortified city. They can throw huge stones in an instant and cause extremely serious damage when they fall to the ground. It is very useful to suppress the enemy's attack or destroy the opponent's defense.

Of course, such a weapon of war also has his fatal weakness. For example, if the attack distance is too close, the strength will become smaller after more than a mile, and it is unable to give full play to its advantages. For example, the inaccuracy of attacking the target is often a stone thrown out, and it is not expected that it will fly anywhere. Many times, it still depends on luck.

But even so, the catapult is still widely used. No, it's just because this technology is too simple. Usually, the armies of small countries will use it. It's like that it needs a lot of manpower, material and energy to manufacture artillery. Even if the red inlaid city is good enough, the current arsenal still can't produce artillery. The strongest thing is that it can make some grenades and mines. Now all the artillery they use comes from the big warehouse.

Fortunately, after the Arsenal in chixian city got the advanced books given by Yang Chendong, there was no problem in manufacturing shells of various calibres, and the research on artillery had made some progress. I believe that only given them time, the birth of artillery was only a matter of time earlier and later.

The Siamese army has no artillery, and the mercenaries left behind in Vientiane city also have no artillery. Such powerful things, unless they have strong military strength, Yang Chendong doesn't trust to put them anywhere. Otherwise, once the matter is leaked out, it will not help but harm Laos. Presumably, someone will try their best to find a way, and the possibility of being targeted will only be higher.

There are no artillery, but there are still ten 40 rocket launchers, hundreds of shells, and a lot of grenades and mines. It's like a mine that Luan Xiaochen buried 300 meters outside the South Gate of Vientiane early. He took the whole cold front and even arranged it at night. Many officials in the provincial government didn't know about it.

An explosion at a distance of 300 meters will not affect our own soldiers guarding the city. It can also kill the enemy. It can't be better.

But these are just a means. What we really want to see is the play of both sides on the battlefield. How to keep the other side's catapult away and prevent it from playing its due role is the top priority of the city defense war.

A mile is five hundred meters. At such a distance, there is usually no way to fight with cold weapons. As the defensive side, no matter what kind of bow and arrow it takes, it is impossible to shoot at such a long distance. It can only shrink its head and let the other party fight. Anyway, the other party can't fight. Everything is a matter of luck.

The same thing happens to mercenaries. They have 95 style and Bayi bar. They can easily hit 600 meters away. Naturally, they have the ability to control the catapult. Now what they have to do is to prevent each other from approaching.

Luan Xiaochen gave the order. The cold front and auxiliary soldiers who were responsible for the first batch of attack qualifications looked for the best position respectively, one by one, waiting for the enemy's catapult to approach slowly.

In the sight, the catapult with huge wooden wheels is also slowly approaching. As long as they get close to a certain extent, they can hit boulders. Not to mention the effect, at least they have momentum. Then, when their soldiers charge with all their strength, they are lucky to set up a cloud ladder, and maybe they can attack the city tower at one time. If you have bad luck, you can also fight a distance war. In the end, depending on which side is weak, the other side will become the winner.

"700 meters..."

"650 meters..."

A cold front soldier constantly made judgments with accurate eyesight, and his voice also fell into the ears of other comrades in arms.

Even if it was 700 meters, they could hit it completely with their guns. However, they did not do so in order to pursue accuracy. What they want is not to make a big splash.

"620 meters... 600 meters, fight!"

Finally, within the best range, the gunfire rang out suddenly. Because it was daytime, there was no clear fire, but the sound of gunfire was endless. Then, a Siamese soldier beside the catapult fell to the ground one by one as if he had been magic.

"Hmm? Is this the power of the new continuous firing gun? It's really good." on the horse, general Gotham with a proud look first narrowed his eyes, and then changed from surprise to excitement.

Long before they came, the military got some information about mercenaries. Naturally, things like guns can't be concealed from them. Later, I saw fan Yuhai again. I knew more about the situation. The first time I saw him, it really shocked him, but it also completely activated the greed in his heart.

In Godan's eyes, he led 100000 troops this time, and 100000 troops could be mobilized behind him. It was just that it was easy to deal with a Vientiane city with only 10000 soldiers. It was like a cannon hitting mosquitoes. Even when he wanted to come, it should be that as soon as he arrived with the army, the bastard's anger would shock the mercenaries to open the city and surrender immediately.

The discovery of things did not come according to their own imagination, and brother Gu was not very disappointed. Do you disagree? Want to fight? Then hit your clothes until you can't fight. As a victor, the enemy's things will eventually be his own. Doesn't that mean that after his victory, these continuous fire guns will also become one of his booty?

I thought that once I had these and added the number of troops, I would become an invincible division. At that time, Siam was bound to become the core of this region and enjoy the brilliant situation of all countries coming to Korea like the Ming Dynasty. As a general who made the first contribution in it, wouldn't he be powerful and respected by everyone?

Ge Dan, who was still in a fantasy state, was soon interrupted by fan Yuhai's voice. "General Ge, you see, the mercenary's continuous firing gun is powerful and accurate. It's time to send the iron shield soldiers."

As always, fan Yuhai told Siam the secret that iron shield could stop guns, just as he told Lancang kingdom that had been destroyed. At the beginning, he made an attack and defense war in Hanoi City, but now he wants to make an attack and defense war in Vientiane city. The difference is that Luan Xiaochen, who is also the governor, was very careful and controlled every gate, which frustrated their idea of sneak attack and had to attack the city openly.
