The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin

"Squeak creak." Such a voice came from the signal machine.

"Squeak cheep. Beep beep." Just as the lieutenant turned the annunciator.Suddenly there was a beeping sound.This is the sound of signal acceptance.

"Received. Received. Sir. We have received the signal." The lieutenant jumped up from his seat excitedly and shouted loudly.

"What?" the lieutenant colonel was just walking out the door.Hear such shouts.Immediately turned around and came back here and asked loudly.

"We received the signal. Signal. We received it." The lieutenant said a little madly.

"Quick. Quickly look through it. Tell me what they said." The lieutenant colonel asked at this time.

"Okay. Okay." The lieutenant immediately returned to his seat to receive the signal.

"Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep." The voice of the telegram was received in both places non-stop.

"This is the content of the telegram." The lieutenant turned and handed the telegram to the lieutenant colonel.

"Goshawk mission accomplished. All is well. Contact is open," the telegram read.

"Good. Good." The lieutenant colonel excitedly said three good things in a row.

"Hurry up. Pass this telegram. Forward it to Xianyang School at this time. Excitedly pass the telegram to the lieutenant.

"Yes, sir." The lieutenant hurriedly took the telegram and left.Come to Wired here.Telegrams began to carry orders.Radio equipment requires a high-power transmitter and wireless repeater to transmit wireless signals farther.And Qin is currently unable to build wireless equipment that does this.but.Qin State has relatively complete cable TV newspaper lines.so.Qin State first established a short radio equipment connection between the two places.then.In transit through the airport.Forward the message from the radio.Thus.Qin Guo obtained a complete connection.The contact of the besieged Qin army can be restored.

"A telegram from the besieged Qin army." A communications lieutenant in Xianyang shouted loudly.

"A telegram from the besieged Qin army." The lieutenant shouted excitedly.

Soon this telegram was forwarded to Wang Jian.

894 Blasting and Siege

"Sir. Telegram. A telegram from the besieged Qin army." A communications lieutenant excitedly passed the telegram in his hand to Wang Jian.

"What." Wang Jian didn't think about it either.The contact with the besieged Qin army was restored so quickly.

"Bring it here. I'll take a look." Wang Jian immediately took the telegram and checked it.

"Very good. Very good." Wang Jian said.

"Report to the king immediately." Wang Jian said and left.He wanted to show King Qin this telegram.

This time, Qin State resumed contact with the besieged Qin army.It was obtained by Qin State with its own technological advantages.If placed before.Relying on soldiers to send orders from besieged places at the cost of their lives.Even sometimes it may not be able to convey it.Please come to more and faster chapters.but.With new technology.Getting back in touch just got a whole lot easier.Especially with the telegram.After radio communication.As long as both parties have telegraphs.Then the communication will ensure smooth connection.Because Qi State still can't understand the degree of not relying on people to convey news according to the current scientific level.They also couldn't organize a blockade network to block the communication of Qin Jun's news.

The Qi army didn't know why the besieged Qin army brought something at the cost of sacrificing an airship.But they stepped up their attack on Yandu.

"What's the matter?" A lieutenant of Zhao Jun who was defending the city wall patrolled back and forth.

"There's nothing wrong. The Qi army's camp is still the same." Said a Zhao army soldier who patrolled back and forth and was in charge of standing guard.

"Be careful. Don't be careless," said the lieutenant.

"It's sir," said the soldier.

finished.The lieutenant left.

"Be careless. With our small number of people, it is impossible to defend such a large section of the city wall." The soldier complained.because.Li Zuoche only sent one platoon of troops to defend the city walls in four directions.Average down.A section of the city wall.Less than one class.but.However, Li Zuoche temporarily dispatched two platoons of Yan militiamen to assist them in defending the city wall.

Said to be a defensive wall.In fact, it is just standing guard.because.Li Zuoche had never planned to defend the city wall.It is also not planned to put the main force on the defense of the city wall.he thinks.Wall defenses are not advisable.Because the weapons are now compared to before.very different.Gunpowder weapons changed a lot of things.for example.The ability to destroy city walls is far greater than before.

The explosives made by Qin State only need enough quantity.Those reinforced concrete buildings can be blown to pieces.Even that kind of fortification.Under the bombardment of Qin's heavy artillery.Can also be doomed.

While the attack power is enhanced.Defense has also been strengthened.Reinforced concrete fortifications can be made bigger and bigger.The defense ability is getting stronger and stronger.but.The capital city of Yan State is still a capital city built before.

The capital he built didn't have any reinforced concrete before it was built.Update modern building materials such as cement for the first time.His architectural structures are not even masonry.It is the fortification technology commonly used before.Rammed earth structure.This structure is in the era of cold weapons.Rammed earth is easy to build.During siege operations.Easy to patch.And the defense is also stronger.Siege operations require a lot of manpower.force.

But with the development of science and technology.New siege weapons appeared.The power of gunpowder can destroy everything.Add artillery.The popularity of musket weapons.This kind of rammed earth structure of the city has been difficult to defend against the opponent's large-scale attack.Especially now.The Qi army was equipped with a large number of gunpowder weapons.If explosives are used intensively.This rammed earth structure.It is simply impossible to block the opponent's heavy blow.

so.Facing this circumstances.Li Zuoche chose a bold plan.Instead of spending more manpower.It's better to give up the city wall to the other party.Let the enemy take the initiative to enter the city.With new buildings in the city.A large number of civil buildings have adopted new architectural structures.Masonry.Reinforced concrete building structure.The houses with these structures are far stronger than the city walls made of rammed earth.In addition, the training of the soldiers in their own hands is insufficient.Especially those Yan militiamen.They have only just learned how to shoot.Some of them didn't even own guns.Such a soldier without systematic training is no match for those regular troops at all.Therefore.Only then did Li Zuoche choose street fighting, a new form of warfare that had never existed before.

so.Li Zuoche had abandoned the traditional tactics of city wall defense.He concentrated all his limited forces at the railway station.In important urban areas such as the Qin Concession Area.As for other places.He gave up entirely.because.He had no intention of fighting on the walls at all.He wants the enemy to enter the city.Entering the city is the real battle.

"Ding ding." It was just three feet below the ground not far away.The soldiers of the Qi army were digging shirtless.

With the popularity of iron farm tools.Infantry can use these farm implements to create more fortifications and siege engines.But with the emergence of steel.Further development of engineering tools.iron pick.Popularization of tools such as shovels.Working underground just got a whole lot easier.Plus the mining of underground minerals.All countries have begun to excavate shallow coal.Tool advances.Mining of mineral resources.As a result, a large number of digging workers appeared in various countries.Their specialty is digging.And this digging.Naturally on the new tactics.

"How far is it?" A Qi engineer asked.Another sapper used a kerosene lamp to take measurements.They use a compass.Goniometer.And various earthen tools.These tools are very similar to some engineering instruments made by Qin State.

"It's not far away. It's only about a dozen steps away. Update as soon as possible," said a engineer leader after the measurement.

The army soldiers said and started to do it.

The reason why the Qi army did not launch an attack immediately.Instead, stop and build fortifications.It's what they were prepared for from the start.

Qi army generals think.It is impossible for a metropolis in a country like Yandu to be defenseless.Especially those cannons.machine gun.For the besiegers.It is a difficult problem to overcome.then.They adopted the most earthy method.Dig trenches close to the opponent's walls.Shorten the attack distance for the Qi army to launch an attack.

at the same time.Generate a lot of waste soil.It can just cover the new tactics of the Qi army's siege.Excavate the method of blasting and breaking the city.

Excavation often produces large amounts of waste soil.Especially this kind of blasting will produce all kinds of waste soil.If these are not handled well.It is easy to be guarded by opponents.Then after the opponent is prepared.Then the offense is not good.

so.The Qi army adopted two sets of combat plans.While digging trenches on the spot, they slowly besieged Yandu.close at the same time

Conduct massive underground operations for blasting.have to say.Qi Jun was lucky.because.their thinking.Li Zuoche already had it.The first thing Li Zuoche became interested in was the engineering arm established independently by Qin State.For this type of arms.Li Zuoche has deep research.Engineers do more than build roads.Get through the traffic.at the same time.Some engineering problems in siege operations can be quickly solved by engineers.Siege is more than surface warfare.And fighting underneath.because.The source of engineers is not just construction workers.There are also a large number of miners.The job of a builder is to build.The role of miners is blasting.Great damage.The emergence of this combat method quickly attracted Li Zuoche's attention.It is this kind of attention.Let him be in the defensive city.He has always opposed this kind of defensive warfare arranged on the traditional front line.Turn to scatter.City street fighting defense battle with crossfire.

It is for this reason.Li Zuoche reduced his observations of various abnormal phenomena outside Qijun City.because.He hadn't planned to defend the city walls in the first place.The city wall is just a symbolic place.

"Put the explosives on." A Qi engineer ran out of the cave shirtless and shouted.Although it is winter.But it was very hot inside.Engineer soldiers wearing clothes will soon be wet with sweat.That's why they are all shirtless.

"Hurry up. Put the explosives on." Immediately an officer of the Qi army arrived.

The soldiers of the Qi army who had been waiting outside the cave early carried gunpowder barrels.Just move it in.The Qi army used black powder.This gunpowder came from the state of Chu.Although there is a big gap with Qin's gunpowder.Mainly in terms of power.Qin's gunpowder is manufactured strictly according to industrial proportions.At the same time special particle technology is used.And graphite brightening technology.This makes black powder amazingly powerful.But the gunpowder made by Chu State is much less powerful than that.This is because the proportion of gunpowder manufactured by Chu State still does not meet the industrial proportion requirements.But the price of gunpowder made in Chu State is cheap.Qi has already spent a lot of money.They are almost unable to afford all kinds of weapons to fight.Such cheap gunpowder.Be their first choice.As long as it can be fried.What difference does a little more make.

"Hurry up," the officer urged.

Voice.A soldier hit the powder keg.

"Looking for death. This is gunpowder. It's not wine." The officer scolded.immediately.The soldiers carefully put the gunpowder into the hole.

After two hours of busy work.The gunpowder was finally placed at the foot of the city wall of Yandu.And this time.The sun is about to rise.A new day is about to begin.

"It's all out. Light the fire." The officer shouted.

"Chi Chi." The officer shouted.A soldier lit the fuse with a torch in his hand.The fuse immediately made a whistling sound.And those soldiers who had finished igniting turned around and ran away.They are afraid of getting burned.

"Run!" The soldiers ran out of the cave in a hurry.They are afraid of spilling over into themselves.

"Chi Chi." The fuse burned quickly.Soldiers run faster.
