please make me king

Chapter 822 Fu Zonglong's End (Part [-])
The swarm of shells smashed into the gaps in the officers and soldiers' camp, but did not cause the imagined casualties.

Most of the shells are directly embedded in the rammed earth, and the end is silent.

It turned out that after Fu Zonglong suffered from artillery losses several times, he also learned a lot from the experience, and learned to use evacuated formations to reduce the damage of artillery.

The shells fired by the first wave of artillery from the rebel army were too concentrated, and the officers and soldiers easily avoided them from both sides.

As a result, the second wave of shells flew over again. Although the center of the impact of the shells this time was similar to the last time, the range of impact was larger than the first time.

Panicked, the officers and soldiers spread out to both sides again to avoid the artillery shells of the rebels.

Then, the third wave, the fourth wave... The officers and soldiers defending the camp retreated to the sides step by step, leaving an unguarded area in the middle.

Gradually, everyone's taste was wrong. Was this intentional by the gunners of the Rebel Army?
"Infantry Coordination Tactics" In addition to Zhang Shun leaving a "cannon path" in the column before charging while bombarding, he also imitated the common tactics of modern warfare in later generations and studied a new set of siege tactics.

That is to say, the shells are extended from the middle to the sides one by one to drive away the officers and soldiers guarding the city wall.

After the officers and soldiers were driven out of a passage by the artillery, it was time for the rebel raiders to appear.

He Renlong glanced in amazement, only the attack points embedded in the battalion wall densely packed with artillery shells were left behind by the rebel artillery, and he couldn't help but cast his eyes on the ground in admiration.

Unlike most people in this society who admire literati, He Renlong believes in force and strength.

The former Fanhe Renlong followed Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, and was defeated in battle, which deepened his impression.

Scholars are really hot chickens, and they were suppressed by the thieves if they failed to suppress the thieves. If it was under the command of Lao Tzu, maybe Henan would have been pacified long ago!
Basically, grassroots staff think that managers are free to do the work, and they have to rely on themselves to do the work; middle-level managers think that everything is done by themselves, and high-level managers are just a virtue of lip service.

It's just that Zhang Shun's "infantry coordination" method this time is beyond He Renlong's comprehension, so he couldn't help but admire it.

Coupled with the level of superstition in this era, He Renlong thought of all the legends about the "King Shun" before, and couldn't help but believe it five points: Maybe following King Shun is really a trick!
Thinking of this, He Renlong became more motivated.

After all, what you are doing is a desperate business, the more promising Party A is, the better you can sell it for a better price.

When the artillery "cleared" out of the breakthrough, He Renlong took the lead and led the five hundred death squads under his command to charge forward.

The death squad was about [-] steps away from the gap between the officers and soldiers' camp, which was just outside the range of ordinary firecracker bows and arrows.

A normal charge will be hit by multiple layers of firepower from enemy artillery, firecrackers, and bows and arrows.

This time, because the rebel artillery cleared a gap, He Renlong and his death squad were only slightly harassed, not a threat at all.

It was so easy to wait until He Renlong and others raided the gap in the camp, only to find that there were only twenty or thirty officers and soldiers defending there.

He Renlong couldn't help being overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "The first achievement in ascending the city is today. Breaking through here is an extraordinary achievement!"

Bullying the few with the many, bullying the few with the crowd, are exactly what He Renlong's subordinates are good at.

Seeing that there were few officers and soldiers, they couldn't help but pounced on them, beheading twenty or thirty of them.

It's just that after killing all the officers and soldiers, He Renlong was about to charge when he suddenly saw twenty or so black muzzles pointing at him and the others.

"No, get out of the way!" He Renlong's liver and gallbladder were torn, he couldn't help shouting, turned over and threw himself backwards.

Just as he fell heavily behind the slope of the camp wall, the deafening cannons rang out.

In just a moment, it seems like years have passed.

After a while, the cannons stopped, and He Renlong's ears were still buzzing.

Suppressing the discomfort, he got up and looked up, only to see the corpses of the Rebel Death Squad lying on their pillows. In just a short while, almost thirty or fifty people had been lost.

Even when He Renlong discovered it in time and issued the correct order, the loss was still so heavy.

If He Renlong made a slight mistake in judgment, don't say how the soldiers under his command will end, then He Renlong can only lie down and go back.

However, this is not yet the moment when He Renlong and the rebels grieve.When the smoke from the artillery cleared, a neat group of cavalry appeared in the sight of the rebel army.

It turned out that Fu Zonglong, governor of Henan, had served as the governor of Jiliao, and he was quite new in the use of artillery and cavalry.

Hiding cannons in the camps and formations, bringing the enemy close and killing them with shotgun bullets is also a common tactic of the Xuanda Jiliao frontier army.

Although Fu Zonglong didn't know what "coordination of infantry and artillery" was, at least he could see that if the rebels followed suit, the officers and soldiers' camp would be lost today.

So he sent people to push up the artillery that was going to be used as the killer's weapon, and at the same time mobilized Zu Kuan's elite cavalry [-] as a counter-surprise attack in the camp.

He Renlong's face changed drastically, and he couldn't help shouting sharply: "Brothers, it's not like we haven't seen horses on the ground before!"

"Zu Kuan, Li Chongzhen, you are defeated! You just need to use the collapsed camp wall to defend for a while, and the rebel reinforcements will come in a steady stream. When the time comes, discipline these thieves without a place to die!"

Under the command of Zhang Shun, the infantry of He Renlong and Bai Guangen resisted the impact of Zu Kuan and Li Chongzhen's Liaodong cavalry, creating conditions for Zhang Shun's final counterattack.

Although the soldiers didn't understand that it was the result of Zhang Shun's careful preparation, waiting for work with ease, and doing mental calculations without intention, but they couldn't hold back everyone's psychological advantage over this so-called "Liaodong iron cavalry".

The thing about war is so strange, if the enemy is strong, you will be weak, and if you are strong, the enemy will be weak.

Amid He Renlong's scorching scolding, the Rebel Death Squad formed a rather simple square formation with the help of the barracks wall.

Immediately, the Liaodong iron cavalry led by Zu Kuan roared over.

Under the huge impact force, with just one blow, the first three columns of the Rebel Death Squadron were knocked off their feet.

It's just that due to the existence of the collapsed rammed earth, the process of disengaging the cavalry after the impact is relatively difficult.

He Renlong hurriedly led the soldiers forward, stabbed the knight on the horse with a spear, and chopped down the horse's leg with a sword and shield.

It's too late, it's too soon.

Just as He Renlong's Death Squadron and Zu Kuan's cavalry were fighting inseparably, Bai Guangen moved.

Zhang Shun and He Renlong had no hatred, so how could they send him up and leave him alone?

He had already arranged for Bai Guangen to support him, but he never expected that Fu Zonglong had some tricks and almost scrapped He Renlong here.

Following Zhang Shun's order, Bai Guangen also put on heavy armor and led five hundred elites to charge forward.

It's not that Zhang Shun is reluctant to let them bring more troops, it's just that the area of ​​the breakthrough is limited and cannot accommodate more troops.

At this time, Zhang Shun couldn't help but ordered: "Order Wukong to lead his personal guards to support at any time, and Li Xin to launch a full-scale attack!"
