"Six thousand rifles!"
a burst of exclamation sounded in the camp, and the general's excitement was beyond words.
During the expedition to Wei, they had already tested the excellent performance of these weapons on the battlefield. These guns not only had a long range and great power, but also had simple filling and fast firing speed.
The ordinary flint gun can shoot two to three bullets a minute, but this kind of rifled gun can shoot double bullets a minute, which is very important for the flint gun that depends on the firing density to kill the enemy.
"General, give these 6000 flint guns to our southern army, and the general will be willing to fight forward!" Lu Fei went out and said to Niu Zhen.
Ye Qingyun was not happy when he heard the words, "general Lu, you are not authentic. How come the forward is you, and the flint gun is also yours. Even if we don't have the flint gun, we Dengzhou army are willing to fight the forward!"
"That's not right. All the good things are from your southern expedition army and Dengzhou army. The war in the state of Wei has taken advantage of you. Now it's our turn." Yunzhou governor Di Ying said.
"That's to say, it's always your southern expedition and Dengzhou army that can't make a show. It's time for us to make a show this time."
“……”
All the generals will not let anyone say a word to you.
"All shut up." Niu Zhen roared at this.
The generals immediately closed their mouths and looked serious one by one.
Looking around at the eager general Niu Zhen, he said in a deep voice: "I know that you are eager to fight now, but you can't make any mistakes in this battle. This is not the time for you to fight for merit. I will put the ugly words in front of you first. If anyone dares not follow the orders in this battle, he will cut off his head in order to scramble the array."
"Yes, general!" all the generals answered in unison.
He nodded his head with satisfaction. Niu Zhen looked at the sand table, which was the terrain between Yunzhou city and Kaizhou city. This time, the armies of King Yan, King Zhao and King Liang were based on Bingzhou City, and they set up camp twenty miles away from Yunzhou city. Their momentum was very great.
Although you also concentrated most of the Fengguo's troops in Yunzhou city this time, Niu Zhen still didn't dare to take it lightly, because it would be a battle to determine the situation in the north for Fengguo.
If 350000 allied forces were wiped out, the offensive and defensive situation in the North would be completely changed, and the feudal state would get rid of passive defense.
"Lu Fei, I ordered you to take charge of the central army, Luo Hong, I ordered you to take charge of the left army, ye Qingyun, I ordered you to take charge of the right army, Bai Mu, you led 20000 cavalry to protect the left wing of the infantry, Qi Guangyi, you led 20000 cavalry to protect the right wing of the infantry, Luo Xin built artillery positions with me." Niu gave orders one by one.
All the generals who heard the order bowed themselves.
Coalition camp.
When Niu Zhen was setting up the battlefield, there was a quarrel over the coming war. This time, King Yan sent his younger brother Cui Huai to command the whole army, King Zhao sent General Zhao ang, and King Liang's army was led by the second prince himself.
Although the three kings reached an agreement to attack Qi together this time, the soldiers stationed in the coalition camp were quite different. Not only that, even the grain and grass were only responsible for each army.
"Why should we let Yan's army act as a vanguard, but your army is behind the scenes. Since it's a coalition army, of course it's the same advance and retreat." In the camp, Cui Huai looks discontentedly at the second prince and Zhao ang.
Hearing this, Zhao ang said, "this time, the Allied forces are led by the state of Yan. Naturally, the vanguard is taken by the state of Yan. Moreover, if you capture Qingzhou, it will be the most profitable for the state of Yan, won't it?"
Cui Huai suddenly blushed. He said angrily, "this is not true. The army is not here for the private interests of Yan. If you sit and watch Xiao Ming become more and more powerful, who will benefit? General Cui said that our purpose this time is to destroy Xiao Ming and prevent him from becoming emperor. Is general Zhao ang unwilling to contribute? Is it because he admits that the 13th Prince is not orthodox The second prince said lightly.
When I think of the second prince of Xiao Ming, I feel a strong hatred in my heart. If Xiao Ming hadn't pursued the assassination, he would not have been demoted to Bazhou, where he suffered a lot.
This time, the king of Liang didn't let him be the commander-in-chief at the beginning, but at his strong request, the king of Liang finally compromised. For him, if Xiao Ming didn't die one day, it would be hard for him to get rid of his hatred.
Zhao ang was run by Cui Huai and the second prince, his face changed, and finally said: "Prince 13 is orthodox, and Xiao Ming's accession to the throne is treason."
"Here it is." The second prince sneered, "I hope you can help me when the war starts tomorrow. Although Zhao ang was unwilling, he had to accept the aggressive situation of the two men. But before he left, the words of the king of Zhao were still in his ears. The 40000 Xuanjia cavalry was the treasure of the king of Zhao, and he would still try to reduce the casualties.
At this time, the two princes and Cui Huai look at each other. They think wrong, and they are worried about each other.
In the early morning of the next day, a curl of cooking smoke rose from Yunzhou City, and the coalition camp began to bury fire for cooking. When the soldiers were all full, the battle drums suddenly sounded in the camp.Then the Allied forces slowly approached Yunzhou city in the sound of war drums.
At this time, a hydrogen balloon in Yunzhou city has been launched, and the semaphore on the balloon constantly transmits the movement of the coalition forces to Niu Zhen on the city wall.
"The semaphore said that they observed 150 guns of the Allied forces being pushed to Yunzhou city." Niu Zhen said to Luo Xin.
"General, it seems that the king of Yan and the king of Liang have all taken out their family." Said rosin.
Niu Zhen nodded, he said: "these guns will be given to you, kill them all."
"Yes, general." Rosin nodded. Then he went down from the castle to a high place outside the city. There were 100 guns on this high place, and there was also an artillery position on a slightly higher land.
Outside Yunzhou City, Lu Fei, Luo Hong, and ye Qingyun led the left, middle, and right armies to form a horizontal line, which was composed of a small line of 200 people.
In the open land outside Yunzhou City, the two armies are getting closer and closer, and the atmosphere on the battlefield is becoming more dignified.
An hour later, the three kings allied forces stopped 300 meters away from the Yunzhou City Army, and the Musketeers in front of them began to come to the Yunzhou army.
This time, King Yan sent all the Musketeers, a total of 20000, while King Liang sent all the 10000 Musketeers in China.
Hundreds of thousands of troops were separated from the East and the west, and the dense soldiers looked like ant colony from high altitude.
For both sides, there was not too much intrigue in this battle, but a confrontation between the two armies.
"Boom..."
As the Allied riflemen continued to come to Yunzhou City, the battle drums became louder and louder. In the sound of the battle drums, the field guns also roared.
