Later, Ma Qian said, "I can't persuade you, brother doesn't need to persuade you. My brothers have the same temper."

"It's okay, it just hurts a little." Ma Jin said.

Wu Song said: "Brother Ma Jin is suffering, so it is better to exercise as little as possible to avoid causing the wound to get infected. I will give you half a month off and rest in the tent every day without participating in training."

Ma Jin said: "It's okay, it's okay, I will pay attention. Brother doesn't have to worry about this. When Mi Sheng looked for us, he made it clear. If you dare to come to my life, Ma Jin will have a life. If you can take my brother so seriously, even if you die, you will only hurt one eye."

As he was talking, the camp gate official came to report: "Report to General, General Tong is here to visit, and he is already waiting at the gate."

Wu Song said: "Chao Gai, Wu Zhuang will greet me, and the others will go back to their room to rest."

Li Kui muttered, "This old boy is not a little scheming, he must be here to touch our spoils."

The Dongping Prefecture Army caught more than a thousand good horses and hundreds of injured horses. The Northwest Army lacked horses, so it was not unreasonable for Li Kui to say this, but the situation was like this. Although Wu Song was not afraid of Tong Guan, he was in a big enemy after all, and there was internal conflicts at this time, and the cheapest one was Xixia.

At the entrance of the camp, Wu Song, Chao Gai, Wu Zhuang and others bowed and invited Tong Guan in. The deputy generals around Tong Guan were displeased. You should know that Tong Guan has a high position and is powerful, and Wu Song wanted to bow to the big gift, but Wu Song bowed and was familiar with Tong Guan.

"Please come from Tongshuai." Wu Song said.

Tong Guan said: "Don't worry, I heard that the main weapon of defeating the Xixia vanguard army this time is the artillery in your camp. Can I let me see it?"

Wu Song smiled and said, "What's wrong? Please, Tong Shuai."

Wu Song led Tong Guan to the artillery position next to him. Tong Guan was disappointed when he saw it. The artillery was too small, more than two feet long, weighing only more than a hundred kilograms. There was a pair of claws attached to the ground in front, looking like a tiger.

Wu Song said: "This is a small transformation by the craftsmen of Dongping Mansion based on the original cannon. They weigh only a hundred kilograms, and two people can hold it away."

Tong Guan said: "Can such a small cannon have such great power?"

"This is the first actual combat of the tiger squat cannon, and the effect is significant. The Baimen cannon, combined with the cavalry charge, defeated the enemy's vanguard. If Tongshuai is interested, you can take a look." Wu Song said.

Tong Guan nodded: "I'm just thinking about it, let's arrange someone to hit him a few times."

Wu Song arranged three tiger squat cannons, and shot shots. More than a dozen wood pieces were placed at a distance of 150 meters. The soldiers lit the cannons, and there were three loud noises. The wooden people in the distance fell to the ground.

Tong Guan ordered his subordinates to come over and get a few wooden men. When he saw that it was amazing, the iron sand was hit into the wood, and the power was beyond words.

Tong Guan said: "There are artillery in my camp, but it is very easy to explode and the soldiers dare not use it, so it is abandoned. How can the general solve this problem?"

"The reason for the lack of material use is that the chamber is fried is originally used, but the pig iron is used. If the cannon medicine is added too much, the chamber will be blown away without any power. Just make sure that the cannon is not cut corners during the processing and production of cannons, good cannons will be created." Wu Song said.

Tong Guan looked depressed. Although he was the commander of the Western Route Army, Tong Guan was reluctant to pay for the cannons out of his own pocket like Wu Song. The water in the imperial court casted the cannons was deeper, and the skin was peeled layer by layer. For example, the imperial court allocated 1,000 taels of silver for one cannon, but the actual amount of silver used for cannons was probably less than 200 taels. This is the court's unspoken rule, and Tong Guan couldn't avoid it. Of course, if he found a way to invest in the cannons, he would say something else.

Tong Guan asked: "How much does it cost to cast a cannon?"

"From the casting of railways, seventy or eighty taels of silver in this kind of small cannon is enough," said Wu Song.

Tong Guan said: "If I write a letter to the court to ask for the casting, I don't know that the year of the Monkey and Horse Month can handle this matter, so I'd like to find a way to raise funds to buy two hundred doors from General Wu."

"This." Wu Song looked embarrassed, "What I just mentioned was the actual price. If you have to mass casting, you have to recruit craftsmen and transport them to the northwest. I'm afraid there is no 150 taels of silver to be saved." Wu Song said.

Tong Guan patted Wu Song on the shoulder and said, "It's a price for conscience. A cavalry can't get out of training to horses and fodders without more than 200 taels. This small cannon will destroy three or four cavalry with one shot. It's an absolute value."

Of course, this matter cannot be settled for the time being, and the battle in front of us has just begun.

After Tong Guan returned, the first unit of the Northwest Army in his life was 50,000 to set up camp three miles beside the military camp of Dongping Prefecture. The two battalions formed a horn form and quietly waited for the Western Xia army to come.

Three days later, the main force of the Western Xia army arrived. The leader of the Xixia Marshal Li Yuanming, a serious descendant of the royal family. More than 50,000 soldiers and horses were stomping on the snow. The most shocking thing was the 5,000 Iron Harrier Cavalry. These 5,000 soldiers were soaring, and they were wrapped in armor from head to toe, and even the war horses were covered with armor.

Wu Song had no good idea after seeing it. The equipment was too well-equipped. It was necessary to mention bows, arrows, crossbows, and arrows. I'm afraid even tiger squatting cannons must be effective at close distance. The distance is too far and there is no effect.

The five thousand iron kites didn't need to be beaten at all. After walking back and forth between the two armies, the morale of the Song army was obviously depressed.

Tong Guan said: "Which general is willing to take his military horses to kill the Iron Harrier."

Zhou Ang said: "I will go there at the end."

Zhou Ang's martial arts are comparable to Lin Chong, especially his skilled archery and horses and a rare cavalry general, so Gao Qiu sent him here very well, but Zhou Ang was a little careless today. The three thousand cavalry he brought were well-equipped and well-trained, but there was a big problem, that is, he had not experienced harsh actual combat.

Zhou Ang led three thousand cavalry out of the battle. The Xixia Tieyaki opposite was too bullying, so he went back to 4,000, with only one thousand men and three thousand men. He wanted one thousand to fight three thousand.

Zhou Ang said angrily: "This is what you asked for."

The two sides hedge, and the bow and arrow shot by the imperial guards in the capital fell on the Iron Harrier and only had a white dot, which could not break the protection at all. However, the bow and arrow shot by the Iron Harrier easily tore open the armor of the Iron Harrier. After all, the armor protection of ordinary soldiers is limited.

Zhou Ang was furious and rushed forward with a big gun and overturned several Iron Harriers one after another, but the soldiers behind him were in trouble. Not everyone had Zhou Ang's martial arts skills. Under the impact of Iron Harriers, they were defeated and suffered casualties.

Tong Guan was a little displeased when he saw it. He beat 3,000 and was beaten so embarrassingly. The Iron Harrier was so powerful.

Wu Song said: "When that guy Zhou Ang finished playing, which camp is willing to go up to pick them up."

Li Kui said: "Our camp is willing to go, but not to save Zhou Ang, but just to let Tie Yaozi know that there are powerful soldiers in the Song Dynasty."
