I became the son of Renzong

"Besides, I handed Wang Shunchen, Zhe Kexing, Zhong Jianzhong, and Zhou Tong to him. These four are all first-class and powerful, even stronger than my four original guards. Don't worry, son. It'll be fine."

Zhao Xi patted Tao Niang's hand, comforting her softly.

Zhao Xi was really not worried about his son's safety.He is still worried about this kind of large army battle.

After all, Di Qing is still a traditional coach. Although he has stayed in the martial arts hall these years and has been exposed to all the new firearms in the workshop city, but when fighting with large army firearms... he, Di Qing, doesn't know if he can understand.

In this era, I am afraid that I am the only one who is most familiar with firearms. Even if I have not experienced large army battles, I am also the best commander.

It's a pity that I can't come in person... It's not that Zhao Xi dares or doesn't want to, it's that he can't.

If the country and the dynasty take the initiative to launch a war, there are many benefits of the imperial conquest, and now they are fighting in front of the house.Once the imperial driver personally conquers, what kind of thoughts will he have...

Back then, during the Zhenzong Dynasty, they had already considered moving south.

Zhao Xi didn't want to frighten his courage once again, so he could only do this so-called trick of strategizing and winning thousands of miles.

Zhao Xi also knew that his worries were a bit superfluous. Based on the current equipment of the soldiers of the imperial court and the tactical quality of the new army, it was impossible for him to be defeated. Even the loss of Guancheng was an accident, but he was still worried.

Zhao Xi's worry was indeed a bit unnecessary.

Di Qing is very relaxed, cavalry is not suitable for attacking the city, and skirmishers are even less suitable for attacking the city.

Regardless of whether the Liao-Xia coalition forces really know how to guard against gunpowder, the method of attacking the city will not change, and certain things and methods must be used.

Siege engines, rams, trebuchets, and pad-to-wall.It's a pity that this method becomes more and more ineffective after gunpowder bombs are available.

At the beginning, the Liao-Xia coalition army approached the wall with skirmishers, and they didn't need to respond at all. The new army was really obedient, and it was a real order and prohibition, which was stricter than the original Western army.

Except for some school lieutenants who compared their heads with those skirmishers and played with muskets, no one paid any attention to those skirmishers who approached.

They are all lecturers in the martial arts hall. This expedition is equivalent to the prince's pro-army, and is not subject to his restraint by Di Qing.Let them play.

The range of muskets is actually not as good as that of strong bows, let alone bed crossbows and eight-ox crossbows.But there are also some who are good at playing, such as Wang Shunchen in the martial arts hall. He is a quick-fire and has a good aim. With bows and arrows, Wang Shunchen can't shoot many arrows with a three-stone bow. He can use a musket, but it exceeds the range of the musket. The same can hit the target.

Di Qing also tried, but he couldn't do it.He can only shoot with a bow and arrow...

That's it, skirmishers are for everyone to play.

As long as the Liaoxia coalition forces gather, they will be blasted to pieces immediately.Use tiger crouching cannons at close range, and bed crossbows and eight-ox crossbows at long distances.

Workshop City has transformed these long-range attack weapons into more convenient ones. Not only can a single person operate them, but even added wheels and steering devices... Yes, that's the term.

An eight-ox crossbow can attack without dead ends.

Officials said that before the range of the artillery could not be improved, the eight-ox crossbow and the bed crossbow were still sharp weapons for long-range attacks, and they had no opponents at all when they were equipped with gunpowder ammunition.

This time, the workshop city has an unlimited supply, and the army brought a lot.Especially the east and west routes, because the chariots could not follow them due to the need to cross mountains and ridges, they brought enough ballistas.

When did I still have such wild thoughts before the war?Di Qing was puzzled, did he get old?It shouldn't be, the war is too intensified.

Di Qing couldn't figure out how the Yanmen Pass was lost... I guess the only way is to coerce the border people.It's a pity that the current Daizhou has been fortified and cleared, and there is no option to coerce the border people. If they want to go south, the Liaoxia coalition forces can only fill with their lives.

……

It's finally time to start.

Thousands of war horses dragged the branches, and the entire wall was covered in dust. At this time, there was no way to see what was behind the dust. Even standing on the wall, it felt like there was dust all around. The black storm I heard...

Di Qing knew it well, and the new army from the Western Army also knew that it was about to attack the city, and when the dust fell, there would be a dense crowd of so-called bumping sons and Han troops approaching the wall...

"Marshal, do you need to ignite the mines?"

This area has been decorated, and it is waiting for the Liaoxia coalition forces stationed in Daizhou to come and gather...~

"No rush, this is just an appetizer."

Di Qing couldn't reprimand, this was His Royal Highness asking.If it was one of his generals, Di Qing wouldn't mind using the army stick a few times first.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still doesn't have the attitude of an official... But it's okay, as long as he has seen this battle, he will be much better in the future.

This kind of loose cavalry, whether it is gunpowder bullets or eight-ox crossbows, is a waste to deal with, and can only wait for the dense team behind...

Soon...~ When there was still room for an arrow, the cavalry turned their heads, and the dust was raised up, and even if the wind blew it, they could cross the side wall.

"Prepare!"

With the passing of one sound, the uniform sound of winding can cover the distant sound of horseshoes...

Sure enough, the dust hadn't completely settled yet, and the Liaoxia Allied Forces running in the dust could already be vaguely seen...

"Elevation 25! Three bursts! Release!"

At this moment, the tiger crouching cannon at the gap in the wall began to be adjusted by the soldiers...

What followed was a series of continuous deafening bangs, almost non-stop...

Di Qing looked under the side wall, but still no one could get close... The dust didn't fall completely, but was blown up again by the gunpowder bombs.

Only this time, what flies into the air is not only dust, but also flesh and human parts...~

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince retched beside him, but Di Qing did not persuade him, this is something that must be experienced on the battlefield...

Chapter 538 Bianliang Sleepless Tonight

Di Qing was only allowed to fire one round of gunpowder bullets, and he was not allowed to wipe out all the Liao and Xia allied forces attacking the city at a long distance.

The enemy had to see that the reason why they failed to capture Guancheng in one attack was not because of how powerful Song's gunpowder was, but because they did not have enough troops.

Look, isn't there a soldier approaching the side wall?

Otherwise, it would be impossible to draw the Liaoxia Allied Forces out of Daizhou City and lead them to a decisive battle in Dingxiang and Xin County.

Daizhou is its own state city, it is better to keep it if it is not damaged!

At this time, it was the work of the Musketeers. After the tiger crouching gun was dragged, the musket barrels stretched out one after another, and the heads wrapped in armor poked out one after another, and began to shoot at the Liaoxia coalition forces who were knocked unconscious by the bombing below the city...

Di Qing glanced at it, and then accompanied His Royal Highness to leave the wall. Today should be like this. Next, we will see if the Liaoxia Allied Forces will pull out all the troops.

The point is, His Highness the Prince's complexion is very bad.

Chong'e couldn't hear the artillery sound of Shitangguan, it was too far away, so he had to send scouts fifty miles away to investigate.

After the Liaoxia Allied Forces in Daizhou City leave the city, and after the Central Route Army blows up the buried mines, he and Guo Kui will start to advance towards each other, compressing the space of the Liaoxia Allied Forces...

The East Route Army led by Guo Kui finally returned to its full glory.

Guo Kui is not worried about this battle. After seeing the firearms in Gongfang City, Guo Kui thinks that with just the 10,000+ new army, the three of them can fight to Shangjing, let alone encirclement and suppression...~ Well, 20 people are indeed killed Very strenuous.
