My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 1917 Loyalty?Unfaithful?

Wanyan nodded knowingly: "I understand, you may live if you fight, but you will die if you retreat. Since His Majesty is ready to fight the big dragon fish, the old minister can only lead the soldiers to die with his old and feeble body. defend the country."

"It's enough for Uncle Wang to understand my difficulties. Today's Daikin is no longer the Daikin before the founding of the country, let alone the Daikin who was established shortly after the founding of the country.

It is Daikin who has survived on this land for a hundred years.

There are too many things here that the big gold cannot give up, and the common people cannot give up.

For now, let’s talk about how the battle is going now. "

"Yes, Your Majesty, this way please."

Wanyan Chizha led the queen towards his desk, and pushed stacks of documents in front of the queen.

"This is the battle report about the three prefectures of Jianzhou, Kanzhou, and Jizhou in the past few days.

The offensive of Dalong's soldiers and horses is very fierce. As far as Jianzhou is guarded by the veterans, Dalong has not stopped attacking the city every day. Now more than 1 soldiers and horses have been killed or injured under the Wangxing Gate of the southern city wall.

There are ours, and there are Dalong's.

However, our casualties were higher than Dalong's. Although Dalong was the one attacking the city, their artillery was too fierce, and the soldiers were powerless to stop the enemy.

Seventy percent of the soldiers were lost under Dalong's artillery.

In today's battle, seventeen artillery pieces were blown up. In addition to the 140 artillery pieces in Jianzhou a few days ago, there are only 49 pieces left.

As long as our side's cannon fires, Dalong's artillery shells will bombard the artillery on the city wall desperately, and a few cannons will have to be lost every day.

On the other hand, our artillery can only blow up their siege vehicles and infantry. It is really powerless to counterattack their artillery.

The range of their artillery fire is only about seventy or eighty steps longer than ours. This short distance of seventy or eighty steps is like a natural barrier blocking our artillery.

There is no way to get past the past. "

Wanyan Chizha gritted his teeth and said, with a sense of hatred and indignation, he took out a document and handed it to the queen.

"Not only Jianzhou, which is guarded by the veteran, but also the other two cities, can only stand helplessly waiting to be bombed by shells.

The familiar opponents of Yunyang, these veterans, have changed their old habits of using troops, and they all learned from Liu Mingzhi, using artillery, catapults, and bed crossbows to suppress our soldiers first and dare not show up, and then the infantry quickly attacked the city , Let our soldiers be exhausted from dealing with the enemy.

To put it in a dejected word, the soldiers were terrified of being bombed. "

While listening to Wanyan Chizha's complaint, the queen flipped through the battle report he handed over.

"Did the Dalong enemy troops in the other two cities use infantry artillery as a sharp weapon?"

Wanyan Chizha shook his head hastily: "No, of course not, otherwise the old minister would not be able to hold on to today.

Although their flowering bullets caused a lot of damage to the brothers, their power was not equal to one-tenth of the power of the artillery tested in the swamp outside the capital city.

Otherwise, the walls of our Jianzhou city would have been bombarded long ago and there would be no place to stand.

The artillery used by the Dalong enemy troops in the other two cities is also the same as the artillery outside the city. "

The queen gently closed the document she had finished reading: "Is there no way to deal with the big dragon's artillery at all? Finding experts to attack their artillery positions at night and blowing up these artillery with our newly made fire mine bombs will not work." ?"

"Oh, it won't work, the old minister has asked people to try the method His Majesty said a few days ago.

Layers of defense, countless masters, the masters sent couldn't get close to their artillery positions at all. "

The queen hesitated for a moment: "Isn't it okay to be half-step innate?"

"Your Majesty, we have it, and so do they.

The artillery is so powerful, the dragon generals naturally attach great importance to it.

Among the masters sent by the old minister, several half-step talented masters were not even a hundred steps away from the artillery, but they were fought by the masters guarding the artillery by Dalong, and then they were shot into hedgehogs by the arrow array. "

Seeing Wanyan Chizha's helpless expression, the queen immediately lost her mind.

In front of Wanyan Chizha, he lingered lightly, wondering if there was any good way to help Uncle Wang fight against the enemy.

After a long time, Empress Mu Ran looked at Wanyan Chizha: "Uncle Wang, you just said that a few days ago, the dragon soldiers and horses used sharpshooters to shoot Lei Zhenzi on the city wall, and cooperated with the artillery to attack the city? Is that right?"

"Yes, indeed."

The Queen's eyes lit up. A few months ago in the Liu Mansion in the capital, a weird weapon appeared in front of the Queen in the "Essence of Weapons" that unconscionably asked her daughter to choose weapons.

The queen forcibly suppressed the excitement in her heart.

"Uncle Wang, they can tie Lei Zhenzi to the arrow clusters and shoot at the city wall, and we can also tie our fire mine bombs to the arrow clusters.

It is even possible to bundle many fire and mine shells together and install them on the bed crossbow bolts.

Where there are many dragon soldiers and horses, shoot there.

With the strength of the bed crossbowman, this should not be difficult.

The stones of the catapult can also be replaced with bundled fire and mine bombs.

Wouldn't this be the same as Dalong's blooming bomb?
The difference is that it is not fired with a barrel. "

Wanyan Chizha listened to what the queen said, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and when the queen finished speaking, his old eyes were as bright as titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

"That's right, why didn't the old minister think of such a simple empathy! Even though he had seen the big dragon tie the Lei Zhenzi to the arrow, why didn't the old minister think about our Huo Lei Bomb!
Or His Majesty Shengming! "

Hearing Wanyan Chizha's compliment, the empress smiled wryly twice.

"Where is Zhen Shengming? I just had a flash of inspiration. I recalled a pattern in a book and suddenly got inspiration."

"It's that book that Liu Mingzhi asked His Majesty to read?"

The queen nodded helplessly: "Except for that heartless man, who else can make fun of things like gunpowder, and now I don't understand what kind of thoughts he has towards me.

If such a powerful and simple weapon is handed over to Dalong's Ministry of War, I'm afraid that the current situation will be worse for Dajin General, but he just didn't do it.

For a while, I didn't know whether to be lucky or sad. "

Wanyan Chizha stroked his beard and pondered for a moment: "If it is according to what His Majesty said, it just confirms our previous guess that Liu Mingzhi is not as heart-to-heart towards the Dalong court as it appears on the surface.

Yet his behavior is truly bewildering.

You say he is unfaithful, he has 30 elite troops in his hands, but he has no rebellion or disobedience.

You can say that he is loyal, and he has been guarding against the court of Dalong, and he is not so loyal to the point where the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die.

Seven out of fifty veterans think they are well-versed in world affairs, but they can't help being confused about Liu Mingzhi's behavior.

This is a person who cannot be viewed with common sense! "

"Uncle Wang, let's put these things aside for now, I plan to send a letter to Yue'er, asking her to order the Ministry of War to expedite the production of a large number of fire mines, but in this way, the casting of the artillery will have to be delayed.

How do you feel about this. "

"The old minister has no objection. Explosive ammunition has always been a problem for our artillery, and now it is most appropriate to replace artillery with fire mine ammunition.

It is not impossible to even sneak attack Dalong's artillery position with this. "

"I don't understand these things. It's all up to you, Uncle Wang. I will send a letter to Yue'er immediately. Do you have the Four Treasures of the Study here?"

"Yes, the old minister personally studied ink for His Majesty."

After the two queens passed the letter, they discussed the plan of defending the city.

But most of the time, Wanyan Chizha would talk about it, and the queen was listening, raising her own thoughts from time to time.

It is best to be recognized by Uncle Wang, if not recognized, it can only be let go.

In the middle of the night, Wanyan Chizha arranged the queen in a folk courtyard inside the city wall, boarded the city wall again, and summoned the generals under his command to discuss matters.
