When Hunjun begins to make elixirs

Chapter 102 Landing Battle

When the people from the Xiaoqi Camp and the Shenwu Camp arrived, they were led by two General Managers, Deng Piao and Lin Cheng, followed by five strange people.Yan Dahu recognized them by looking at their clothes, Internal Affairs Office!
Several people dismounted and saluted Yan Dahu and Bai Linxian: "The two adults are finally here. The emperor has sent people to inquire many times. Please leave the two adults as soon as possible."

Yan Dahu stepped forward and returned the gift, telling the two of them Ding Ao's analysis: "So, I will stay here, and Mr. Bai Ge will follow you to transport food back to the capital."

Yan Dahu has the power to deal with the situation as the situation arises, while Deng Piao and Lin Cheng can only follow orders.When Bai Linxian saw the Shenwu Camp and the equipment in their hands for the first time, he felt that defending the city would play a big role, so he suggested: "Allocate another two thousand Shenwu Camps to General Yan."

Yan Dahu did not dare to accept it. He was the general of the Sixth Army Camp. If he intercepted the officers and soldiers of the Shenwu Camp without authorization, it would cause controversy and he might even be impeached.Besides, the Shenwu Camp is the most important army to the Emperor. Without his will, who would dare to mobilize it without authorization?
"No, there is no room for failure in transporting food. There are still five or six days to go. Mr. Bai Ge must be careful."

Lin Cheng saw Yan Dahu's concerns: "General Yan, the emperor said, let us listen to your command. There are enough people transporting food. The emperor's original intention was to wait for the food to be transported to Longdu Mansion so that you don't have to return to the capital. , went directly to the front line."

"The emperor's original words were, 'Let Yan Dahu be the fire-fighting captain and go wherever there is need.' He also assigned five master practitioners to you."

"The emperor's grace is mighty!"

These words really sounded like the emperor's tone. Yan Dahu felt relieved and accepted two thousand Shenwu battalions, and also left a thousand Xiaoqi battalions.Those five cultivators were actually human puppets.Yan Dahu left three people behind.

Li Shun equipped the armies sent to various places with cultivators, most of whom were warlocks from the Shenji Manufacturing Office. After their identities were identified, they were given blessings, so that they could use their full strength without being affected by the evil spirits like other cultivators. Luck restrictions.

Since Hu Minyi is with the third prince, Li Shun cannot guarantee that the other nobles will not have the support of cultivators.After all, Zhang Jinzhong said that the Dragon Slaying Organization colluded with some nobles.

Ding Ao had also heard about the Shenwu Camp. Weapons were made by the Shenji Manufacturing Office and were specially used to deal with cultivators. They were definitely used to defend the city. He was also glad that his decision to ask for help reduced the casualties of the people in the city.

The team separated, and Bai Linxian continued to transport food northward.

Yan Dahu entered the city under the leadership of Ding Ao and immediately inspected the city's defenses. Overall, there were no major problems. He pointed out several minor flaws.Ding Ao also immediately corrected himself and looked at Yan Dahu a few times in his heart. This general was really capable.

At night, the sea breeze ruffles the sea surface.Yan Dahu led people to observe on the shore. The waves seemed to be bigger than usual tonight, until nearly two hundred ships of various sizes appeared from the coastline.Each ship has a deep draft and is fully loaded with people, numbering at least 2.

Dayin's shipbuilding technology is very advanced, and none of the surrounding satellite countries can threaten the security of Dayin's maritime territory.Dayin does not prohibit private foreign trade and can obtain a large amount of tax revenue from it every year. There is Shuzhou in the north and Bozhou in the south. The two places are famous trading ports.

Banzhou's port is not large, nor is it a deep-water port.The enemy could only land on a beach from the east coast.

Yan Dahu doesn't like to defend and doesn't consume a wave when landing. It's a pity that the enemy has worked so hard to come all the way.Besides, Shenwu Camp carries thirty small flint cannons, which can be used by inserting alchemy talismans.

The rebel ship stopped a hundred feet away from the coast, lowered its small boat, and prepared to land.

Yan Dahu led three thousand archers and two thousand Shenwu camps to ambush on the shore.Numerous holes filled with water were dug into the beach to slow down enemy movements.

The rebels were commanded by a man named Hong Zheng from the Hong family. He was a 73-year-old garrison and a veteran on the battlefield. It was he who proposed the plan to raid Banzhou.

He obviously felt the discord between the nobles of the various parties, and dispersed his troops. On the surface, it looked huge, but in fact it was not even as powerful as the Three Kings Rebellion. The three kings pushed to the capital within a month, and at least three of them It's only possible in months.If you keep fighting, you will definitely lose!

Now the momentum is overwhelming, but that has not yet happened with the three major camps in Kinki.They can only fight quickly!Can't delay!With a delay, the border army will move south, and the southern army will go north to King Qin.

Hong Zheng looked at the dark coast, feeling inexplicably nervous. There was a smell of death in the sea breeze when a war broke out.He has been fighting for many years and has developed a keen instinct for war.He was sent out to fight by the Hong family when he was supposed to be retiring to his old age. He was reluctant but had no choice.

The juniors are greedy for pleasure and have no war experience at all. They bring a few soldiers to burn, kill and plunder. They are experts at attacking cities and seizing lands, that is, delivering food.In fact, he was opposed to rebellion. No matter how powerful he was, his roots were already rotten.It is better to hand over military power, become a noble family, and make the descendants rich and noble. "Spread out and land, don't crowd together!"

"Ladder landing! Go up!"

Hundreds of small boats began to row towards the shore. This group of rebels were like wolves and tigers. They had already tasted the sweetness of the war and couldn't wait to invade Banzhou City to release their animalistic desires.Where they passed was the real desolation of life, men were held hostage, women were raped, and everyone's pockets were filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

Yan Dahu saw the rebels' formation and knew that an experienced person was commanding them.It seems that when they entered the range of the bow and arrow, an order was given: "Fire the arrow!"

Three thousand archers bent their bows in unison, and arrows rained down.

"There's an ambush!" the rebels shouted.

When Hong Zheng saw so many people jumping out from the shore, he knew that his plan had been exposed and that there might be a fierce battle next.

"Continue landing! Shoot out the lighting!"

The huge crossbow on the ship fired burning objects made of pine wood and kerosene, and the coast was completely illuminated.Hong Zheng also saw the army on the shore, the three major battalions!The Sixth Army Camp!

"Did we meet him?"

Hong Zheng's inner desire for war was also ignited.This is the real opponent!
"Landing at full speed! Project fuel!"

More boats were lowered, trebuchets were placed on several ships, and clay pots filled with kerosene were ignited and smashed against the shore.

Yan Dahu shrugged his nose: "Aren't you willing to use the cannon? Then I'm not welcome!" He led the soldiers to move their positions.

The enemy must also have alchemy items, but they are old items from decades ago and were used by Sejong when he put down the Three Kings Rebellion.Few companies have the strength to independently develop and produce, let alone large-scale assembly like Shenwuying.

"Prepare the flint cannon!"

The soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion stepped forward and inserted the alchemy talisman they carried into the tail of the cannon. The muzzle flashed with dazzling fire, and the buzzing sound resounded throughout the sea and sky. If there were any practitioners present, they would definitely find that the surrounding spiritual energy was absorbed by the cannon body.

"put!"

boom!boom!boom!Like thunder in the sky, countless lava-like flints were shot out, and the boat that was hit immediately fell into pieces.

"Artillery! They have artillery!" the rebels shouted in horror.

Hong Zhengzheng shouted expressionlessly: "What are you afraid of! That thing fires slowly! One shot at a time. After one shot, you have to wait for half a stick of incense!"

boom!boom!boom!A few more explosions!Hong Zheng was slapped in the face. The Shenji Manufacturing Office had long overcome this shortcoming. One alchemy talisman could fire three rounds of flint.Moreover, you can use the cooling charm to shorten the cooling time of the gun barrel.

Li Shun once praised them personally: "Warlock technology is the primary productive force!" He boldly predicted that warlocks can definitely surpass immortal cultivators!If a magic weapon-like prop is developed that everyone can use, the immortal cultivators will be nothing!
Yan Dahu was very satisfied with the fear of the rebels. He had seen the Shenwu Camp training, and the emperor pioneered the concept of "artillery". He said: "Guns and artillery can only show their power when they are used intensively!"

One gun can't kill a practitioner in the foundation-building stage, but what about a hundred or a thousand?
