But he finally held back.

The enemy is coming from afar, so there must be not much food and grass preparation. But I rely on the largest city in the river, Samo-Zhu City, and there is food that can be eaten for a year in the city. The one who is anxious now should be the Sai Ye Army, not our side!

Sun Xiurong thought so too.

However, at present, the standard combat period of the Shattered Ye Army is as long as two months, so he cannot hope to defeat the enemy within one day, but at this point, the enemy has the upper hand in their hearts - they are fighting locally, while their side is in the foreign land in the depths!

"Let's get up and face the attack of the enemy's catapult. What if the enemy does not pursue it if they retreat?"

Facing such a powerful enemy, Sun Xiurong naturally prepared several plans before going to fight, but under the suppression of the enemy's catapult car, it is naturally impossible to take the initiative to seek battle in the plan. Although the catapult car has limited lethality, he would not take any combat plan that would strike its own morale.

With the catapult cart, it seems that the enemy will not take the initiative to attack even if they are killed. If they are sure that their side will definitely not be able to calm down and launch the attack first, they will naturally be free to make peace under the city.

But Sun Xiurong didn't want to stand up like this. Although his food and grass reserves lasted for two months, they were in a foreign land, and there was an unstable factor in the Tang Dynasty on one side.

If Gao Xianzhi had not coveted the appearance of Princess Nie Xu Danxi, he might not have taken the Tang Dynasty seriously. But since this incident had occurred, Gao Xianzhi would be an unknown factor. If Gao Xianzhi was urging to invade Bakhan's country, with the strength of the country, he should not be able to withstand his attack for a month. A month later, with the entire Bakhan's country as a support, Gao Xianzhi could go forward and fight and attack himself with the big cannibal!

At this time, there was no saying that the Tang Dynasty and the Dashi were great enemies. At least they had not encountered it on the surface, but they were actually enemies of the Shattered Ye Army!

With Gao Xianzhi's strength, he may defeat the country of Bahan in a shorter time. With the unknown factor of Geshu Minu, although he has already made plans, he cannot be sure of the situation as the situation develops with the convergence of multiple unstable factors.

Therefore, defeating the Dashi Army as soon as possible became the best combat plan.

Therefore, the secret weapon he made after returning from the tsunami tribe to Saiyechuan must be used in advance.

He originally wanted to use this weapon at a critical moment on the battlefield, but under the current situation, he could not help.

As mentioned earlier, an ordinary camp leader of the Shattered Ye military camp used to have ten short-barrel cannons. After returning to Shattered Yechuan, the number of cannons naturally increased. Each camp leader doubled, with twenty. However, because of the need to protect the camp, only ten were brought to the battlefield this time.

But the Bogda Camp is not listed.

As the personal guard camp of Sun Xiurong, after arriving at Shuyechuan, the number of artillery skyrocketed to forty!

After leaving the camp, there were three camp leaders in the camp with 1,500 people and thirty cannons to protect them. According to the current attack ability of the cannibals, if the camp is suddenly attacked, there will be no problem until the main force rushes back.

In addition to forty artillery, the Bogda Battalion also has a complete heavy army battalion, a heavy army battalion composed of Modao soldiers, led by Modao general Yan Duo himself.

But judging from the current situation, it is not easy to use Mo Dao Soldier to break through any three square formations directly opposite.

Attack with artillery?

As mentioned earlier, the maximum effective range of the short-barrel cannon of the Shattered Ye Army is one mile, and the best distance is naturally about 300 meters. At that distance, the short-barrel cannon can attack the enemy formation in an almost flat state. At a distance of one mile, it can only be ejected by ejection and landing, which will greatly reduce the power.

The best way to use ejection is to use cannons with twice the length of the cannon, but Sun Xiurong has not yet made it to that point at the moment - the cannon is too heavy, and under the balance of maneuver power and power, he chose maneuver power at the beginning.

Also, this time he actually brought the Rehai Camp, Tianshan Camp, and Yibo Camp that he had never fought. In the eyes of the Saiye Army, these are all weak camps. If he brought Ma Lin's Raole Camp, Bai Xiaode's Saiye Camp, or Abus's Chile Camp, his combat power would definitely be much stronger than it is now.

Faced with such a strong enemy, or going to the foreign land to fight, Sun Xiurong still brought these three camps that had never experienced war. Is he a little arrogant?

The answer is obviously no.

Neither the Bogda Camp nor the reinforced short-barrel cannon weighing 300 kilograms could be his secret weapon to return to Shattered Yechuan.

His secret weapon is something that has existed for a long time.

Thunder and lightning.

But this is not the sky-shaking thunder projected by the heavy army camp with hands, nor the light sky-shaking thunder used by cavalry, but the sky-shaking thunder projected by a catapult!

Even in the last life, in the heyday of the Great Xia Kingdom, he did not develop howitzers, and there was no exception in this life. However, in the last life, the existence of a large number of cannons slightly covered the shortcomings of howitzers, but in this life he still found a way to make howitzers have the possibility of long-range attacks.

A crossbow that was originally used to fire crossbow arrows as thick as an arm was used to fire thunder as heavy as a crossbow arrow!

After the modification of this crossbow was made by the Shauyejun Workshop and the iron-packed car wheels were used, the overall weight was similar to that of a 300-pound cannon. Naturally, it could follow the side van and assemble it quickly when you arrived at the battlefield.

It was such a shocking thunder. Sun Xiurong tried a secret base near Alishi for a year before he could use it skillfully. However, only Bogda Camp has such a catapult.

There are twenty gates in total, and each catapult car needs four people to serve. A total of one team is organized, with a size of hundreds.

When using this kind of crossbow to be ejected, the effective distance of the catapult is between one and two miles, which is naturally related to the angle and position during launch.

It is now on the flat ground. When the catapult cart pushes the thunder at a forty-five degrees, the distance can reach 700 meters!

After the two sides confronted each other in silence for about a moment, Sun Xiurong finally took the lead in launching.

“Woo…”

To this day, the Thunder Ye Army naturally abandoned the previous Niuke Horn and had replaced it with a bronze one. This sound is not the sound of attacking, but the sound of the drummers in various teams that are concentrating on observing and listening.

Next is the drum sound.

"Dong...Dong...Dong..."

The three formations of long drum sounds and the three formations of big drum sounds, the interval between each drum sound is about six breaths. This is agreed one day in advance, "adopting the third plan."

In order to confuse the enemy, this drum sound was repeated three times. After hearing the drum sound, the catapult convoy hidden in the front of the Bogda camp was ready, and the cavalry covering the catapult were ready to retreat from the formation to both sides.

Sure enough, in the enemy's doubts, when the three consecutive drums ended, the three rows of cavalry in the front suddenly went out from both sides of the formation!

Therefore, instead of using a tight formation like the Great Food Army, but four large square formations, the strategy of leaving a lot of gaps between the square formations is obvious!

When the cavalry completely retreated to the end, they exposed the forty cannons and twenty catapults in the front!

The artillery was in the front, and the catapult was behind.

"call out......"

When the drummer of the stone casting team saw the red flag in the forehand of the team, he quickly beat the big drum in front of him. This big drum was slightly smaller than the central army, and the sound was shorter than the central army, with three consecutive "dongdongdongdongdong".

At this time, due to the high tension of the soldiers, if the launch orders were issued by the central army's big drum, it would probably be a mistake, but the drum beats that were very familiar to us after long-term training did not exist.

I saw the soldiers of the catapult cart knocking the catapult cart with an iron hammer. No, no, no, no, we still call it a "bridge cannon". The hanging knife (trigger) of the catapult cannon cannot be pulled by a person, and can only be hit with an iron hammer.

The place where the crossbow cannons place the sky-shaking thunder is different from that of ordinary crossbows. Ordinary crossbows are a semicircular groove with a diameter of about one inch, but the crossbows are a semicircular groove with a diameter of about six inches!

The thunder is also very different from ordinary ones. Half of the thunder placed on the crossbow is smoother on the surface, close to the groove, and half is still the same as before. When the hanging knife is loosened, the diameter is about an inch long. The crossbow string made of beef tendon, silk thread, and fish glue suddenly bounces towards the thunder in the groove!

The rough side of the thunder was inserted into the burning lead and rushed towards the enemy formation roaring!

At this time, although after a long period of exercise, the soldiers were still frightened. What they feared the most was that the crossbow string was thrown directly above due to irregular bounces, and an explosion occurred in their own camp. Such a situation did not happen during the test, and casualties also occurred.

Although it gradually stabilized later, it was in the drill field, not in the real battlefield. The tension of leading the soldiers in the real battlefield was not something that the drill field could achieve.

Sun Xiurong naturally had a solution that could place the thunder in a cylindrical iron tube, similar to the modern crossbow arrows in later generations. That device could ensure that the thunder in the sky will only be pushed into the sky ahead. However, the device was very complicated, and the entire crossbow cannon was very heavy after the thunder in the sky, and the thunder was extremely troublesome to ignite, and finally it took the form in front of him.

Sure enough, when twenty crossbows were fired together, an accident occurred. I don’t know why. Perhaps the crossbows were not fixed properly, or perhaps the soldiers used too much force when they hit the hanging knife, or the sky-shaking thunder was not placed properly, and a sky-shaking thunder was thrown directly above!

Fortunately, this happens when the elastic force of the crossbow string does not fully act on the thunder. Although the thunder of the sky flew directly above, it fell down after flying for more than ten meters. The soldiers rushed up and pulled out the lead!

The thunder flying according to the normal trajectory flew over the Great Food Army in a very short time!

"Is this the Thunder and Earth Fire of the Broken Ye Army?"
