Chapter 171 Suppression (1)
Chapter 171 Suppression (Part 1)
On June 28th, the war was approaching.
It took Wang Hongyi to send troops to Jingzhou for more than half a year. In the past six months, the situation in Dayan has changed one after another, which can be described as twists and turns.
First, Wang Hongyi's 50,000 Shu troops entered Hanzhong in a high-profile manner, staring at Guanzhong with a fierce look, trying to annex Qin territory and confirm the name of the King of Qin, but they stopped moving, and for a moment, people were panicked.
Guo Wen, the prince of Qin, thought it was true, and dispatched troops and generals to fight against the enemy. It was a battle of two heroes that was noticed by almost everyone, but at the last moment, Wang Hongyi was shot and evacuated Qin, and attacked the east and west. He used an army of 50,000 to pull the eyes of the people in the world and quickly captured the Yiling and Shangyong in Jingzhou.
At the same time, Zheng Pingyuan, Jingzhou, was not willing to fall behind, and then took action in Jingzhou. During the past six months, Zheng Pingyuan and the King of Wu joined forces on behalf of the court. Zheng Pingyuan presented Jiangling to the King of Wu to express his surrender. Then the King of Wu calmed the people in the name of the emperor and gave Zheng Pingyuan the title of Chu Hou. In Jingnan, Zheng Pingyuan swallowed the four counties of Jingnan and began to take root!
Immediately afterwards, the gradual pacification of the Wu Kingdom was gradual. King Wei Yue of Wu used thunder to pacify the five vassal states, and suppressed the situation.
Among them, the Shu army won one after another in Jingzhou, which was like a staggering victory, winning several counties in Jingbei, and forcibly breaking Xiangyang, shocking the world.
It can be said that this series of changes has led to the emergence of two powerful countries in the south and a small country, and the competition for the dragon is about to take place.
After being stimulated by this, all states in the northern region are accelerating their pace.
Everyone understands that once the south is unified, it will march into the north. If everyone does not have time to develop at this time, they will lose the opportunity to compete for the dragon.
I don’t know how many princes were secretly cursing, hoping that the King of Wu and Duke of Shu would restrain each other, and it would be better to delay them for a few years or more so that they could become dragons.
It’s okay with the King of Wu, but it has been known for a long time. The Duke of Shu really shocked the world.
Wang Hongyi’s information has been circulated and collected by countless people.
The young man of the former dilapidated family inherited the position of the governor of a county and occupied a state, and nearly annexed most of the land in Jingbei and became a prince. It took Wang Hongyi only five years to go from the 11th to the 16th year of Chuizheng!
At the age of twenty, he was full of heroic spirit. He dared not say that his civil servants and military generals were like rain and clouds. He was also full of wings and had established a very deep team.
At this time, Hanjin Port
A gust of wind swept across the lake, the corridors were tortuous, and the reflections of the walls and pavilions were shaking on the lake surface. Large lotus leaves surging with the waves, making a sound of water. The lake water was clear and naturally had a cool feeling.
Zhang Youzhi looked at the entrance of the garden.
There was a large number of ministers waiting for Wang Hongyi to meet.
Zhang Youzhi said: "Lord, there are too many things waiting for you to handle. Please cultivate yourself. At this time, you are facing a great war and a great battle. This foundation of success is on the shoulders of the lord."
Wang Hongyi stood under the willow tree, looked at the turbulent lake water, and said for a long time: "Wang Ye is difficult, I know this, but no matter how difficult it is, we have to continue."
Wang Hongyi pondered that even with firearms in the navy, Wang Hongyi was still a little lacking in confidence even when he was armed with firearms.
Unlike many people imagine, firearms are not enough to hold on now.
Although the young supervisor craftsmen who arrived in Xiangyang rushed down quickly, the hand guns and hand fire bullets had been manufactured in large quantities, Wang Hongyi was always a little nervous about the actual effect.
The Shu army's naval division has now expanded to 20,000, occupying the lifeline of the Jingzhou naval army, but it is still built roughly. Half of these naval armies have never been on the battlefield and have never seen blood. They are far inferior to the elite of the Wu Chu naval division. If these "weapons" in his hands cannot play a role, the outcome of this battle will be difficult to say.
Seeing Wang Hongyi pondering, Zhang Youzhi didn't speak, and the bells under the eaves in the distance were jingling in the wind.
"Lord, my minister Zhang Fanzhi asked for a meeting!"
As Wang Hongyi was thinking, a voice sounded from afar.
Wang Hongyi was stunned: "Zhang Qing, come in."
The sound of footsteps came from outside.
I saw Zhang Fan walking through the gate of the garden with a little tired look, coming to the place, and in an instant he arrived in front of Wang Hongyi.
"My minister Zhang Fanzhi, I have met my lord!" Zhang Fanzhi bowed to Wang Hongyi.
"Zhang Qing, don't you train the navy on the water? Why did you come to the orphan here?" Wang Hongyi asked lightly.
But Zhang Fanzhi's tired face showed a hint of joy: "Lord, when I received the musket, I immediately organized the navy's rehearsal, practicing day and night. Now I am familiar with it. In the afternoon, the navy's hand guns are being practiced. Will the lord go and watch?"
"Have you mastered the musket? The young supervisor craftsmen have made all the muskets that the 20,000 naval masters want?" Wang Hongyi was slightly stunned, turned around and asked Zhang Fanzhi.
"There is still a batch of muskets, but eight thousand hand guns have been obtained. It must be extremely lively during the afternoon training!" Zhang Fan smiled and narrowed his eyes. His originally exhausted expression also dissipated due to the military training.
Being able to equip this large number of firearms is extremely beneficial to the upcoming war!
Wang Hongyi had seen handguns for a long time, but it was just a single handgun. Whether the large number of handguns produced later maintained their quality, and what was the training of the navy, it was still not certain.
"Since that's the case, let's go and watch!" Wang Hongyi said immediately after thinking for a while.
He had long wanted to see whether the mass-produced handgun could be useful in water warfare, so he ordered the afternoon handgun training and immediately became an inspection of the navy.
In the afternoon, Wang Hongyi, who had just had lunch, came to the shore under the protection of the guards.
On the water, warships almost covered the river in front of us.
Zhang Fan changed into a navy official uniform and came to see him.
Wang Hongyi asked him to command the navy army to practice, so he went to the high platform himself.
To check the navy, it was naturally intuitive on the water platform, so Wang Hongyi specially climbed a three-story building, looking from top to top, and dozens of ships below were clearly visible.
Some ships have straw men on them, while others use old ships temporarily.
The water outside is as clear as a mirror, shining in the sun.
At the window, you can also see the densely packed personal soldiers below. These things were naturally arranged by the relevant parties. Although Wang Hongyi noticed them, he did not respond.
Wang Hongyi is not a person with the White Dragon Fish Suit. He can protect himself well, and there is nothing wrong with that.
On the platform, Wang Hongyi's eyes turned to the distance.
On the river, the navy was undergoing training, and a ship passed by quickly. Between the two ships intersected, a sound of handguns burst out. Although they were far away, they could still hear the sounds. The sounds were divided into three batches, which were three segments of shooting. From a high altitude, the grass men on the ship opposite exploded one after another.
In Wang Hongyi's hand, he was also holding a hand gun.
An official from the Young Prison was introducing to Wang Hongyi with a proud look: "...This handgun is thin and long, with wide mouth and length, and is guided by the lord. He loads gunpowder in the ignition hole and then ignites with a fuse. It can emit divine fire and give the enemy a painful blow. It is quite powerful and is simply a magical skill!"
Wang Hongyi looked at the familiar object in his hand from the side. The "match rope" of the pistol greatly reduced the loading time and could implement "three-stage shooting", which made Wang Hongyi like the more he looked at it.
"Lord, this hand...the hand gun is so powerful. Can you also send some for me?" The generals standing beside Wang Hongyi's side lit up their eyes.
Fan Liuhai spoke first.
Although the other party has not spoken, their expectant eyes still reveal their thoughts.
It’s a pity that Wang Hongyi’s words shattered their dreams.
"The range of this pistol is only twenty steps and is only valid on the ship."
"Look, the boats on the river are very fast. The two ships intersect, and they cannot get close even though they are five meters and ten meters apart. At this time, the pistols are shot in three consecutive times and are released through the boat, so the power can be exerted."
"After the ship intersects, you can use the gap to fill in gunpowder and add bombs."
"But during ground warfare, even if the second army is infantry, twenty steps will arrive in a blink of an eye. The three-in-one pistol may not be able to be fired. Once you get close, you will only be killed. What's the use of such a weapon to you?"
Hearing this, the light in the eyes of these generals could not help but dim.
Wang Hongyi's words made them look forward to it slightly.
"However, after improving this pistol in the future, it can shoot fifty steps, so you can try it with the infantry. Now, you can give each of you one, as you are familiar with this thing in advance."
"Yes, lord!" Several generals responded quickly.
After the hand gun, it is the test of the hand fire bullet.
I saw two ships intersecting, with a shout, and a group of hand-fire bombs were thrown onto the enemy ship, and fires suddenly burst into flames. This scene really made Wang Hongyi quite satisfied.
Although its power is not great, it is already extremely shocking at this time, and the generals look excited.
Wang Hongyi continued to watch the navy's drill.
What he watched was not only the strength of these naval armies, but also the strength of the warships. These were all the contents that Wang Hongyi viewed.
I saw that on the water, 20,000 navy soldiers were full of fighting spirit and were quite good.
Even if you are trained, ships will inevitably be slightly damaged. At this time, these ships will be towed to the shore for repair.
One of the warships was knocked out of a gap during training.
When the ship was towed to the shore to repair it, the guard Lu Suhai, who was in charge of the warship, also got on the ship at the same time. Looking at the man and the soldiers, Wang Hongyi's mood unexpectedly calmed down.
With this person and firearms in hand, the 20,000 naval troops face the Wu Chu naval troops, the victory may not be small!
However, Wang Hongyi always felt a little nervous.
Every time this situation occurs, there will be no good things, but he has prepared everything he can now. Although Wu Chu's water army is an elite, he also has a firearm in his hand.
From the spiritual eyes, the trained navy was equipped with a firearm, and the red air rushed straight into the sky.
Every epoch-making progress in weapons will bring great luck.
