Red Mansion Taoist

Chapter 204 Dali
"Your Majesty, the information coming from the capital is that Jia Qiang is going to lead troops. This person is extremely powerful. I hope your Majesty will be more careful!" A general reported to Wang Shuirong of Beijing.

Although the King of Beijing has left the capital, there will still be news about the arrangements he has made in the capital for many years.

The most extreme method of transmitting intelligence was to use the Daqian Station. This information was regarded as important military information and was transmitted through fast horses.

The intelligence coming from the capital arrived in Dali City almost at the same time as Jia Qiang's 10,000 troops.

"Although Jia Qiang is strong, she is not invincible. I have my own plan!" Although Beijing Wang Shuirong was in despair, his momentum remained the same, he said lightly.

"Your Majesty, the offensive of Daqian's army continues unabated. I don't know when it will slow down. Only then will we be able to discuss self-reliance with Daqian!" Yunnan Chieftain Ahua De said.

He is the chieftain of this generation, and was inspired by King Beijing Shuirong to join the forces of King Beijing Shuirong.

The reason why he was willing to send troops with the chieftains of Yunnan to help King Shuirong of Beijing was because King Shuirong of Beijing gave him a good prospect.

Self-reliance is the goal of Beijing Wang Shuirong. He also knows that with these years of hard work, Yunnan can only defend and protect itself at best, and it is still too late to take the initiative to attack Daqian.

"I know the situation in the Dagan court best. The Tatar invasion four years ago caused Dagan heavy losses and great damage to its vitality. In the past few years, Dagan's income and expenditure have been seriously overrun. What we have to do in this battle Just procrastination.

He already knew who was coming. Da Gan didn't have many war horses, and only Jia Qiang's two guards from the Beijing camp could equip each sergeant with ten thousand horses.

To be honest, it is very difficult to get the Supreme Emperor to agree to Yunnan's independence. But to put it another way, to make Yunnan his vassal territory, based on his understanding of the Supreme Emperor, he is very likely to agree.

He is confident that his ability to govern the world far exceeds that of Emperor Jingwen. Under his governance, Yunnan will develop rapidly. When he accumulates a certain level of strength, he can send troops to join forces.

"At that time, my people can live together with the Han people, and no longer have to suffer from the poisonous miasma and live a precarious life!" The future life seemed to appear in front of Ahuade's eyes, he said with longing.

He has many slogans and propaganda to the outside world, but his biggest wish in his heart is to ascend to the throne.

Regardless of Langhou's continuous attack on the city, in fact, the response in Dali City was that many troops rotated up the city wall to increase war experience and conduct military training.

King Beijing is still very young and has a long time to complete his plan.

"It will definitely come true. I have arranged enough war in Dali City for a year. Dagan cannot fight with me for a year!" Beijing Wang Shuirong laughed.

This ten thousand cavalry has outstanding military exploits. It participated in the pursuit of the Tatars four years ago and proved that the Daqian cavalry was stronger than the Tatar cavalry.

Just wait until Dagan recognizes Yunnan's independence, that's when he wears the dragon robe.

At this time, Wang Shuirong of Beijing was thinking about the dragon robe again. The dragon robe that Jia Qiang cut into two pieces was repaired by Jiang Nan's skillful hands and is now placed in his house.

When there is no war, he can fully develop Yunnan.

"Wanqi, there is only one army in Daqian with Wanqi!" Langhou was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and said in a deep voice.

Lang Hou picked up the monocular and looked into the distance. A huge cavalry team was slowly advancing.

"Report, Mr. Langhou, we found a cavalry force of ten thousand people approaching the battlefield!" A scout jumped off his horse and knelt down in front of Langhou and reported.

This is where he is most proud. When he took control of Daqian's power, he transferred large quantities of gunpowder, arrows, weapons, etc. prepared for Daqian's army to Dali City, building the city into a strong fortress.

"It seems that the Holy One is not satisfied with my results. I want to see how Jiahou can break this fortified city!" Langhou thought with his lips tightly pursed.

This is why Beijing Wang Shuirong dared to stay in Dali City. Among hundreds of thousands of troops, is there any safer place in the world than here?

On the flag held high by the cavalry, the huge word 'Jia' indicates their identity.

Coupled with the 50,000 Yunnan chieftain army, 50,000 Yunnan local troops he received, and some newly recruited troops, a small Dali gathered an army of hundreds of thousands.

As long as we delay until Da Qian is unable to fight any more, we can negotiate with Da Qian for Yunnan's independence, or even give in and let Da Qian make Yunnan his vassal territory! "Beijing Wang Shuirong said confidently.

In Daqian's army, there are many generals who are dissatisfied with Jia Qiang, especially the evaluation given by the Supreme Emperor to Jia Qiang's famous general. This is currently the only famous general in Daqian who is so evaluated by the Supreme Emperor.

Therefore, the world calls Jia Qiang the only famous general in Daqian, and it also deeply affected many generals.

Which general can be knighted for his military exploits, who has not spent many years of life and death, fighting for his military exploits with his life.

But look at Jia Qiang. At less than twenty years old, she already has a super-grade marquis and a first-grade military attache. Jia Qiang's achievements are already at the top of the pyramid in the military attache system.

Lang Hou believed that the method of handling this war was not wrong. Although the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, the losses were necessary as long as they could defeat King Beijing.

Lang Hou is ready to send gold to welcome Jia Qiang's arrival.

But just when he was about to issue the order, he saw five cavalry rushing out of the 10,000 cavalry and rushing towards Dali City.

The speed of these five cavalrymen is surprisingly fast. Based on Langhou's experience, each of the horses ridden by the five cavalrymen is one of the best in a thousand.

He forgot to issue the order for a moment and watched as the five riders approached the city wall faster and faster.

Jia Qiang saw twenty artillery pieces on the Dali city wall, and they were all the latest Franconian artillery in the West.

He couldn't help but marvel at King Beijing's ability to dissolve water. This kind of artillery was extremely rare in Daqian. He also obtained three Fo Lang machine artillery when he was fighting with salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River.

He took out the 'Zhentian Bow', and at the same time Jia Gong and Jia Jian both took out the divine bow.

The sergeants on the city wall also discovered their five knights. The main reason was that these five knights were too arrogant.

Orders came out one after another, and the twenty Franco machine guns all turned and aimed at the five cavalry.

The Folang machine artillery is good at attacking distant targets, but it is difficult to attack targets under the city wall, so after finding a better target, of course they chose to attack Jia Qiang's five cavalry.

Jia Qiang's eyes were fixed on the twenty French artillery pieces, and his mind kept giving orders to the four summons.

Because he did not want to reveal too much strength, he did not increase the speed of the war horse to the extreme.

If that were done, both sides on the battlefield would notice the strangeness of the speed.

Jia Qiang is still very knowledgeable about the Folan machine artillery, or all the flames in the world today.

The current artillery is still in its infancy. The shells fired by the artillery are solid and will not explode after being fired, which greatly reduces the actual power of the artillery.

Coupled with the distance of more than four hundred steps, even the shells fired by the Franco machine gun will take a certain amount of time to fly in the air.

As long as Jia Qiang's five cavalrymen dodge in time, it will be difficult to hit them even if twenty French artillery guns are fired at once. The shells fell on the ground one after another, kicking up patches of soil and weeds.

The Fifth Cavalry dodges flexibly to avoid all the cannonballs, and will accelerate suddenly when necessary, allowing the Five Cavalry to always make evasive actions in time.

Finally, the five riders came within 300 steps of the city wall. Jia Qiang, Jia Gong and Jia Jian all drew their bows and shot arrows.

The arrows of the three people instantly suppressed the gunners of twenty Franco machine guns. Each gunner of the Franco machine gun was a treasure to King Beijing. The accumulation of ammunition consumed to train a gunner was extremely considerable. .

But these gunners were killed one by one under the arrows of three people.

The arrows of Jia Gong and Jia Jian are better. As long as the gunner finds something wrong, he can hide behind the bunker.

But Jia Qiang's arrows are different. As long as he locks the target, no matter how he hides, he will be killed by the arrow.

Soon twenty Fo Lang machine guns went silent, and then the three blocked the Eight Bull Crossbows and other heavy crossbows. Archers who were close to these heavy crossbows would be shot without even having a chance to reach out.

Without the obstruction of twenty French artillery pieces and other heavy crossbows, the five cavalrymen got closer and closer to the city wall.

Jia Jingang, who was at the front, had one hand free. His treasured Sharma rushed to the Lu Gong cart with broken wheels. With one hand, he pushed the huge Lu Gong cart toward the city wall.

Lu Gong's cart, which is more than ten meters high and made of thick logs, soil, leather and other materials, would require dozens of sergeants to push it, even if the wheels are intact.

But such a huge Lu Gong car was like a child's toy in Jia Jinguang's hands, being gently carried off the ground by him.

Treasure Sharma only slowed down slightly, and in a blink of an eye he was under the city wall, and Lu Gong's car was also close to the city wall.

Jia Wei, who was behind, stepped onto Mr. Lu's carriage, followed the road inside Mr. Lu's carriage, and reached the platform ten meters away in the blink of an eye, and then the treasured Sharma jumped onto the city wall.

At this moment, everything was quiet on and off the city wall. Both the defenders and the siege sergeants stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at the sudden appearance of the five knights.

The sergeant guarding the city, after Jia Wei climbed up the city wall, belatedly screamed in surprise.

They began to organize Jia's sergeants to surround and kill Jia Wei. These Jia-wearing sergeants were armed with long axes. Even tough generals needed to be cautious when they broke out in a short period of time.

But what they met was Jia Wei. The twelve-meter iron rod was swung out, and the twelve-meter distance on the city wall was suddenly empty.

Regardless of whether they were armored sergeants or any other sergeants, they were all the same trash under this kind of unreasonable attack.

Following him on the city wall was Jia Jingang, who had the same twelve-meter iron rod, but his attack direction was from the other side of the city wall.

Jia Qiang, Jia Gong, and Jia Jian finally climbed up the city wall. After Jia Qiang climbed up the city wall, he was afraid that someone would come to snatch his head, so he kicked down Lu Gong's chariot with all his strength.

Standing on the city wall, which is the highest point in Dali City, he saw the densely populated camps in Dali City.

A primitive and crude camp, it was the camp of the chieftain army.

Sentries and horses were set up, and the camp was in good order. According to the meaning of the law of war, it was the camp of a regular army.

Jia Qiang ignored Jia Gong and Jia Arrow. Each of them had 50,000 arrows placed on them. This was the ordnance he received from the Ministry of War.

With Jia Gong and Jia Jian's never-fatiguing fighting ability, a moving speed of 438 meters per second, and a shooting speed of fourteen arrows per second, they will be mobile forts.

Jia Qiang did not sense the powerful and mysterious aura, which proved that there was no immortal-like existence in this city.

This allowed him to fight boldly without worrying about being tricked by the immortal.

He replaced it with a pair of goddess statues. The goddess statues could be attacked or defended. The most important thing was that they were indestructible, which made him like these heavy weapons very much.

At this moment, Jia Jingang and Jia Wei had already killed the city wall on this side and were heading downwards along the ramp leading to the bottom of the city wall.

Jia Qiang did not follow immediately. He first went to put away all the twenty Fo Lang machine artillery pieces, and then put away the Eight Bull Crossbow Arrows and the Heavy Crossbow Arrows.

Even if Jia Qiang becomes a first-grade official and is inspected in all nine provinces, the Department of Cadres and Military Affairs will not equip Jia Qiang with these weapons.

Especially in the capital, heavy war equipment such as Baniu crossbows and artillery are not allowed to be owned. Once discovered, it will be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.

This is one of the reasons why Beijing Wang Shuirong kept heavy war equipment such as artillery and eight-niu crossbows in an underground treasure house and became restless after being discovered. The dragon robe is also one of the reasons.

After collecting the loot, Jia Qiang rushed down the city wall.

He did not go in the same direction as Jia Jingang and Jia Wei, but chose another direction to kill.

Wherever Jia Jingang and Jia Wei passed, there was no living life left.

With a weapon weighing eight thousand kilograms and twelve meters, it is unimaginable to leave a complete corpse wherever it passes.

Because they invaded Dali City too suddenly, by the time the hundreds of thousands of troops in the city reacted, Jia Jingang and Jia Wei had already reached the camp.

Jia Qiang also arrived at the camp of the Yunnan chieftain army at this time. He was wearing armor, and his war horse was also wearing horse armor. Not only his war horse, but also the summoned war horse also wore horse armor after they climbed onto the city wall. .

With the existence of the equipment slot, wearing horse armor is just a matter of thought.

The reason why Jia Qiang chose to attack the Yunnan chieftain army was because he wanted to reduce the massacre of Daqian sergeants.

Those rebels who took refuge with King Shuirong of Beijing were all sergeants of Daqian before.

Of course, if necessary, he would not be lenient in killing these rebels, but if he had a choice, he would be more willing to take action against foreigners.

The Yunnan chieftain's camp uses tree branches as walls. Probably because he thinks the city is very safe, these branches are more for show.

The goddess statue, connected by the Wusheng Whip, turned into a flying hammer and smashed against the branches and walls of the camp. Then the war horse rushed past and entered the camp.

The chieftain army brandished all kinds of weird weapons and rushed towards Jia Qiang.

The goddess statue surrounded Jia Qiang, drawing a 360-degree circle in the air, smashing all the enemies around him into pieces.

From a distance, Jia Qiang looks more like a god, while the goddess statue is his guardian, with her flying figure protecting the central god.
