please make me king

Chapter 77
Zhang Shun was very happy after hearing what the boy said, so he asked him about the origin of his name.He replied: "My name is Li Shi'an. I'm from Luoyang. I worked as a clerk with the shopkeeper. Because of the disaster in Mengjin, I followed the general here."

Hehe, with the merit of the first righteousness, this is still very popular!Zhang Shun happily asked, "How long have you been a buddy, what are you good at?"

"At the age of seven or eight, I was sold by my parents to the old shopkeeper to learn art. I first did odd jobs and worked hard for more than ten years before I had the opportunity to learn how to do accounting and copying. But I never thought that the goods were destroyed by the flood before I could use them. Everyone I fled in all directions, fearing that my boss would settle the bill. I couldn’t remember who my parents were, and I had nowhere to go, so I followed the general.”

Zhang Shun was very happy to hear that this is still a technical talent.Since he can settle accounts, he should be good at mathematics, just right for commanding and managing artillery.Then he ordered: "Good boy, I think you are very good, why not be the captain of my artillery team!"

After hearing this, Li Shi'an said with a little anxiety: "My parents named me Shi'an, hoping that I can live in peace for ten lives, and live in vain. I don't want to be this dangerous leader. General, can you change me?"

"Haha, of course." Zhang Shun said with a smile, "No way!"

"If you don't obey my order, I'll have someone cut you off right away, making it impossible for you to live on. Do you still want the tenth life? This life is gone."

When Li Shi'an saw that Zhang Shun was angry, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "General, calm down, general, calm down. I just want to be the leader of the artillery!"

Zhang Shun originally wanted to correct him, he is not a bandit, where is the leader?After thinking about it, I gave up, and just said: "It's so good. The original artillery team was not good at fighting, and I abolished it. Now the newly formed artillery team is called the 'Second Artillery Corps', referred to as the Second Artillery Corps. You It's the captain of the Second Artillery!"

How dare Li Shi'an refuse to obey, and immediately agreed honestly.So, by the way, Zhang sent him to continue to go to the east gate to test artillery every day to harass the defenders of Douzhuang.It's just that this time, Zhang Shun learned how to be good after suffering a loss. Zhang Shun specially arranged for Wei Congyi to send soldiers to protect the artillery;

In the past few days, "Zijinliang" became angry from embarrassment. While stepping up his own attack, he ordered "Old Huihui", "Eight King Kong" and "Optimus Prime" to attack together.Zhang Shun took advantage of this opportunity, while instructing Li Shi'an to practice gunnery, and at the same time dispatched generals from time to time to observe how other companies attack the city and learn siege skills.

As a result, they continued to attack the city in turn for a few days. Apart from the loss of some lives, the siege still did not make much progress.On this day, Zhang Shun was preparing to continue paddling, but he received an order from "Zijin Liang" and hurried to the "Zijin Liang" camp.

When Zhang Shun went to Ximen to have a look, he was shocked.I don't know when, "Zijin Liang" actually piled up a hill with earth on the opposite side of the west gate.It turns out that this Dou Village is also considered unlucky. Originally, its terrain is surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is convenient for defense.But he never thought about who gave "Zijin Liang" an idea, and came up with a strategy of digging up the earth and rocks on the mountain in front of him, piling them up into a mountain, and using them to attack the city.

"Wei Liaozi" has a cloud: If the land is narrow and crowded, build a large wall to face it.That is to say, there are many people on the attacking side, but they cannot deploy because of the narrow terrain, so they can pile up earth hills and attack the city condescendingly.

"Sun Tzu's Art of War" also said: "It's only three months from the distance."It means that it takes three months to pile up the earth mountain.However, due to the terrain, the "Zijin Liang" made people work overtime day and night, and a small earth mountain was accumulated in a few days.

"Zijinliang" waited for Zhang Shun to finish watching, and said: "Little brother 'Optimus Prime', I want to borrow your artillery. We are condescending, and we will destroy this city by shelling it." Zhang Shun listened and thought for a while After a while, I found that this method was very stupid, so I agreed.Order Chen Changbing to bring Li Shi'an's artillery to help in the battle, and let Wei Congyi continue to besiege the east gate of Douzhuang.

At noon, the thirty tiger squatting cannons, large and small, were all set up. Zhang Shun stood on the earth hill and looked into the city. The battle is probably over.

Sure enough, with the order of "Zijin Liang", [-] large and small tiger squatting guns on the earth mountain shot at Douzhuang.Dou Zhuang had no choice but to put the artillery on the city wall and shoot at the rebels.In this era, the artillery was not accurate enough, and both sides' artillery skills were not very good. As a result, each of them fired dozens of cannons, with little damage.

It turned out that the rebel army had a good location, but because of the backward shape of the artillery, and the bore of the gun had not been milled by a milling machine, it was extremely rough and the accuracy was too poor.Although the Douzhuang artillery was advanced, because the rebel artillery was installed on a dirt hill, the kinetic energy of the shells hitting the top was absorbed by the soil, so they couldn't bounce.

If you want to destroy the artillery of the rebel army, you can only hit it directly, but the chance of this is too low.In addition, "Zijin Liang" deliberately chose to bombard when the sun was slanting to the west, which made the gunners of Douzhuang fighting against the light very passive.

After the two sides cooled down their cannons for a while, they were about to shoot at each other again. Zhang Shun asked strangely: "Second master, since everyone can't hit the opponent's cannons, why not directly bombard the houses of the people in the village?"

When "Zijin Liang" heard it, he suddenly realized, only to realize that he himself had entered a misunderstanding.He quickly asked the gunner to ignore the opponent's artillery and directly bombard the personnel and materials in Douzhuang City.After Zhang Shun made this "harmful trick", Dou Zhuang couldn't hold on anymore, and there was a burst of crying and screaming in the city of Dou Zhuang.

Zhang Shenyan, who came to watch the battle, couldn't bear it, and persuaded in a low voice: "The 'Zijin Liang' is just a thief, so what has it to do with you? Why did you make such a bad move and harm the innocent people in that city?"

Hearing this, Zhang Shun said in amazement: "This bandit is our bandit after all. When the two armies are fighting, it is life and death. Why is the boss so naive? If Dou Zhuang comes to surrender, I will sweep the couch to meet him. Now he is stubbornly resisting to the end. You can't kill yourself, can you?"

Zhang Shenyan was speechless, the "Zijin Liang" blasted from mid-afternoon to dark before it stopped.Just to shoot into Dou Zhuangzhuang, solid bullets are mostly used.It seems hearty, but the actual psychological harm to Dou Zhuang is far greater than the actual harm.

It was getting late at this time, "Zijin Liang" held a big banquet in his camp to celebrate the attack, entertaining "Lao Huihui", "Eight King Kong" and others who came to help in the battle, and only waited until tomorrow to break Douzhuang and capture Zhang Daojun alive.

Although Zhang Shun and the others had a lot of food in their hands, they hadn't seen meat for a long time, and their stomachs were already full of hunger.Taking this opportunity, everyone ate and drank.Especially that Zhang Shun didn't want to be naughty, he grabbed a pork knuckle on purpose, and his mouth was full of oil after eating it.
