Chapter 186 The Power of Firearms
"Kill!"
Four hundred thousand soldiers from Dayan Mansion, led by their respective generals, shouted loud slogans and advanced towards the Qin army's position.
"The gunmen lined up and came forward, ready to shoot!"
Qi Jiguang's face was cold and his tone was calm.
Although the momentum from the opposite side looks quite intimidating, the weakness in his heart cannot be concealed.
In the eyes of famous generals like Qi Jiguang, they can easily tell the quality of an army.
"Tap, tap, tap!"
Behind him were hundreds of thousands of stern-looking fire gunmen. After hearing the order, they lined up in three rows and slowly moved forward.
After entering the best shooting position, the gunners in the first row took the lead in firing.
"Pah, pah, pah!"
Amidst the crisp sound of gunfire, white smoke filled with the smell of sulfur quickly filled the air, almost covering the faces of the gunmen.
More than 30,000 lead bullets carrying lethal poison erupted from the firecracker.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Almost at the same time, large areas of Dayan Mansion soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.
The armor they wore was not very strong and could not stop the lead bullets ejected from the muskets.
"Warriors, don't be afraid, as long as we rush to their position, we can kill them all!"
A general from the Dayan Prefecture raised the morale of his soldiers.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the second round of volley from the gunman came as expected.
The sound of gunshots, like fried beans, instantly drowned out his words.
"Pfft!"
Because the armor he wore was very different from that of ordinary soldiers, he received special attention from the gunmen.
Fourteen lead bullets passed through his body, and he immediately received his lunch box.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
Every moment, soldiers from Dayan Mansion were shot and fell to the ground.
The flat terrain allows the power of firecrackers to be fully exerted.
The gunmen of the Qi Jiajun were as relaxed and comfortable as lining up to shoot prisoners.
Compared with the relaxation and comfort of Qi's army, the morale of Dayan's soldiers has dropped to freezing point.
The strange weapons, the wails of their comrades, and the death of generals, all of this hit their hearts like a heavy hammer.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
At this moment, Qi Jiajun's fourth salvo came!
The lead bullets, which carried a strong aura of death, instantly cleared out a large area of Dayan Mansion soldiers.
This volley was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing the soldiers of Dayan Mansion to lose the will to continue fighting.
The Qin army is completely out of reach and can only be passively shot. No one can withstand this!
"Withdraw! Withdraw!"
Amidst the sounds of retreat, the Dayan Mansion soldiers left behind tens of thousands of corpses and then retreated to Qianqiu City in dejection.
Qi Jiguang, who witnessed this scene, curled his lips in disdain, then turned to the general behind him and ordered: "If the enemy is in the city, use cannons to blast them hard. If they dare to leave the city, use firecrackers to suppress me."
past!"
"In short, the principle is that the enemy forces in the city must feel pressure at all times!"
The main reason why Qi Jiguang did this was naturally to divert the attention of the enemy troops in the city so that they would not dare to act rashly.
"promise!"
After hearing the order, all the generals and commanders of the Qi Family Army solemnly agreed.
…………
"Brother, the soldiers can't rush out at all!"
"The Qin army's weapons are so weird!"
In Qianqiu City, Yan Tianci, with a solemn face, spoke slowly.
Hearing the sound, Yan Tianrun sighed heavily.
Although he had no illusions about the soldiers, the defeat of the soldiers was too clean and tidy.
"Hold the city!"
"They have come a long way, and their food and grass will not last long. When their food is exhausted, they will retreat!"
Yan Tianrun's tone was extremely cautious.
He is a mature and prudent general. He doesn't like to take risks, even if they have an 80% chance of winning.
Just like the current situation, if he mobilizes millions of Yan soldiers in the city to attack the Qin army, then Qi Jiguang and the others will definitely not be able to stop him.
But there is no such thing as a war. This cautious Prince Dayan does not like to take any risks.
"promise!"
Although Yan Tianci wanted to retort, considering Yan Tianrun's high position now, he had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it.
………………
When Yan Tianrun and Qi Jiguang, who had millions of troops, were in a stalemate, Yuwen Chengdu, who led 30,000 elite Xuanwu knights, had already reached Yanjing, the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom.
At this time, Yanjing was at its weakest since the founding of Dayan.
The imperial guards stationed in the capital all year round were transferred to Qianqiu City, and the Dayan Mansion soldiers who took turns guarding this place were also rushed to Qianqiu City.
Currently, Yanjing, the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom, is basically undefended.
"My sons, follow me into the city and behead Emperor Dayan!"
Yuwen Chengdu, holding a gilded phoenix-winged boring machine, loudly gave orders to the 30,000 Xuanwu knights behind him.
"Hoo, ho, ho!"
The Xuanwu knights, whose morale was high, all roared.
The thick military evil aura almost covered the entire sky.
"kill!"
Yuwen Chengdu nodded slightly, then urged his horse to rush towards Yanjing, the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom.
Thirty thousand elite and powerful Xuanwu knights followed closely behind.
"Tap, tap, tap!"
The horses trample like thunder, and the shouts of death are like rain.
"Run, run!"
The guards at the gate of Yanjing City, after seeing the menacing Xuanwu Knight, chose to apply oil on the soles of their feet very conscientiously.
He directly left the open Yanjing City Gate to Yuwen Chengdu and the others.
"mob!"
Yuwen Chengdu, who rushed to the city gate, couldn't help but sneered after witnessing this scene.
He did not expect that these Great Flame soldiers could not even fight.
"Drive, drive, drive!"
In a short period of time, 30,000 elite and powerful Xuanwu knights, led by Yuwen Chengdu, entered Yanjing City, the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom.
There is a saying that Yanjing City is very prosperous, even more prosperous than Chang'an, the current capital of the Qin Dynasty.
There are a large number of merchants and Dayan people who come out to purchase things in the city.
"Only punish the Yan clan and leave the rest alone!"
Under the horrified gazes of the people of Dayan in the city, the majestic Yuwen Chengdu roared loudly.
He really has no interest in attacking these civilians. His inner pride does not allow him to do such a despicable thing!
"Only punish the Yan clan, and leave the others alone!"
Thirty thousand Xuanwu knights behind him also shouted in agreement.
Under such huge noise, the people of Dayan reluctantly put down their fear.
"Who are you!"
Suddenly a sharp and weird shout came out, and then Chen You, the only "military general" in Yanjing City, was seen leading thousands of strong young men with fair faces and beards, rushing from the direction of the Dayan Palace.
come out.
These thousands of strong young men, although their martial arts realms all have late-stage innate cultivation, there is no hint of the masculinity of warriors in their bodies, and instead give people a feminine feeling.
