Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 678 The reversal you need is here... (one more)
"Secretary Gao, I look at the soldiers and horses of the imperial army, although they are very elite, but they can't see what is special about the soldiers and horses of the imperial army.

The lower officials really don't understand why this forbidden army dares to claim that they can go down to Jingyuan Fort in one day? "

At this time, Orihiko couldn't help but stand up and express his attitude.

It seemed that he was targeting the cavalry of the imperial army, but Gao Zhang couldn't understand this typical accusation and scolding.

Seeing Zhe, Zhong, and Yao, representatives of the three families of famous generals in the Northwest Frontier Army, all spoke to express their respective attitudes.

Gao Zhang is naturally very clear that they need evidence, which is very good, but they need you not to understand, and even have strong doubts.

Only in this way can it be more shocking when it is reversed. Gao Zhang smiled calmly, still in such a personable manner, as if he was not angry at the words of everyone.

"I am very clear about the thoughts of the generals. I just want to know what the iron cavalry under my command can rely on to break Jingyuan Fort."

"Since that's the case...then please, generals, follow me and go out of the camp."

"General Lu, lead the five artillery groups of the Feilei Artillery Battalion to accompany us out of the camp."

"The last general takes orders." Lu Qian bowed respectfully to Gao Zhang and walked away quickly.

"Feilei Artillery Battalion... Artillery Crew..."

All the generals of the Western Army are obviously a little confused at the moment, and they don't quite understand what this operation is.

"Everyone, you will soon see why Privy Councilor Gao dared to go down to Jingyuan Fort in one day."

Seeing the impatient expressions of all the entourage around Gao Zhang also aroused the curiosity of the civil and military personnel of the Western Army.

Could it be a more powerful weapon than the eight-ox crossbow?However, they are cavalry, and I haven't seen any heavy weapons recommended by them.

Everyone was full of doubts, followed in Gao Zhang's footsteps and left the big account.

#####
Amid Gao Zhang's urging, a general led them to a valley about 20 miles away from Pingxia City.

This is a wild valley with little human habitation. The mountains on both sides of the valley are very steep, and you can even see the rugged rocks exposed outside the white snow.

"Privacy Minister Gao, this must be at least 25 miles away from Pingxia. Even if there is a real landslide here, it will certainly not affect the soldiers and civilians in Pingxia more than 20 miles away."

"Not bad, not bad. This is indeed a good place to try out the Thunder Cannon."

Gao Zhang nodded, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw a huge boulder protruding obliquely halfway up the mountainside.

Beside the boulder covered with thick white snow, there are more than a dozen trees that have lost their leaves. On the slanting branches of one of the big trees, there are two squirrels that seem to be hooking up with each other there.

"General Lu."

"The general is here, what are your orders from Duke Zhuang Yuan?" Lu Qian strode forward and saluted Gao Zhang respectfully.

After all, he was a confidant who had been the No. [-] Scholar for many years, so calling Gao Zhang the No. [-] Scholar was naturally to show his difference from others.

"Did you see that slanted boulder..." Follow the direction Gao Zhang's hand is pointing.

All the people present all set their eyes on the boulder, which was probably half the size of a room, with a part protruding obliquely.

"The last general saw it, but will the champion blow it up?"

Lu Qian looked at the boulder, and began to estimate in his mind where to attack, which would be more effective in solving this boulder.

Gao Zhang leaned close to Lu Qian's ear and muttered, and gestured there.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhuangyuan, Feilei Artillery, will definitely not disappoint Mr. Zhuangyuan."

Lu Qian saluted Gao Zhang, and the five gunners behind him also saluted Gao Zhang in unison.

In a short time, the metal cylinders that Shimen Northwest Wenwu had never seen before were already unloaded from the horse's back.

Then every group of five people carried that weird metal cylinder to the front and started to assemble it.

And here, Gao Zhang glanced at the bewildered and puzzled soldiers of the Western Army, and began to explain to them.

"Generals, this thunder cannon is also a long-range weapon. Now its shooting range can be adjusted from fifty feet to 120 feet."

"Private Gao, you said this iron thing can fly 120 feet?"

Zhong Shidao, as a veteran general of the Song Dynasty frontier army, believed that he had eaten more salt than Privy Priest Xiao Gao had eaten rice.

Just such an iron lump, if it can fly 120 feet, I can eat it raw without dipping it, believe it or not?

"General Zhong, you misunderstood, this iron thunder barrel is just a launcher, and those people are carrying thunder bombs.

The flying thunder bomb is to be launched from the flying thunder cannon barrel, flying far and hitting the enemy. "

Gao Zhang explained to Zhong Shidao over there, while other generals of the Western Army whispered.

"That thing looks like a piece of wood that has been sharpened. It has neither a bow string nor a rope for throwing it. How can it fly out?"

"Hehe... This old man is brave enough to throw a hundred-jin boulder several feet. I don't believe it. Those soldiers of the imperial army are stronger than this old man."

"The old general's words are reasonable, but the champion has invented a lot of good things.

Just like this binoculars, it can actually see twenty or thirty miles away, maybe he really has some tricks..."

#####
The unruly Cai Laoliu was displeased with the chirping and chirping sounds of those idlers, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

"It's like summer insects can't talk about ice, and well frogs can't talk about sea."

"Who are you talking about?"

Tong Zhisheng, who was sitting on the carriage, dozing off with his head up and down, suddenly slanted his eyes and stared at Cai Laoliu.

Cai Laoliu's face darkened, and he rolled his eyes helplessly, but he couldn't clearly point out who he was targeting.

After all, senior brother Gao Zhang told himself that these northwest frontier soldiers were all cruel and vulgar warriors, the kind who would start their hands and feet when their brains were hot, and kill people like numb.

Moreover, among these people, many of them were black-handed by their own fathers, just like the leaders of General Zhong and General Yao were dismissed from office by their own father Cai Jing.

They must be holding grudges, if they offended this group of people, it would be light for them all to jump up and beat themselves up.

The important thing is what if they maliciously attack and retaliate against themselves?

"Little brother, I didn't mention you, I was just expressing emotion."

At this moment, as the five artillery groups had already calibrated their ballistics, they finished loading.

Lu Qian raised the red flag over there. At this time, Gao Zhang cleared his throat and reminded him.

"Everyone, please also pay attention. The power of this flying thunder cannon is extraordinary. Its sound alone is like a clear sky thunder exploding in your ears."

As soon as Gao Zhang finished speaking, everyone heard Lu Qian's shout.

"One cannon position, let it go!"

boom……
