As the person who knew Kangxi best in the world, Yinreng quickly noticed something was wrong with Kangxi.

But he didn't take it to heart.

He had often encountered such moments of being suspected and investigated in his previous life.

But at that time, he was willing to spend time to dispel Kangxi's suspicions, but now, he can doubt as much as he wants.

Kangxi tortured himself for several days, and when he saw that a war with the Junggar tribe was about to begin, he shifted his attention from Yinreng to the war situation.

In fact, after the beginning of spring, the Dzungar Khan also ordered his generals to lead elite cavalry to harass the Khalkha border several times with a very arrogant attitude.

So this time Kangxi was determined to eliminate the trouble once and for all. When he arrived at the border of the Khalkha tribe, he did not stop for a moment and went straight to the heart of Junggar.

Kangxi directly ordered the extermination of all the small tribes encountered along the way.

Being kind to your enemies means being cruel to your own people.

These herdsmen living on the grasslands were also the source of the Junggar cavalry. When they rushed into the Qing territory to burn, kill and loot, they did not think of letting the Qing people go.

The Dzungar Khan received the news quickly and quickly assembled a large number of cavalry to rush towards the border, attempting to use heavy cavalry to attack the right wing of the army and inflict heavy damage on the Qing army, so as to prevent the Qing army from advancing deep into the hinterland.

However, the 5,000 heavy cavalry he had trained at great expense were defeated and fled in all directions after just one encounter with the right-wing army.

In the end, more than 2,000 of the 5,000 heavy cavalry were lost.

Seeing this, the commander of the right wing army had no intention of ordering his men to forcibly pursue the defeated soldiers.

After all, before setting off, the emperor's attitude was already very clear. This expedition was to completely eliminate the threat of the Junggar tribe.

The Qing Dynasty clashed with the Dzungar heavy cavalry, and the Qing Dynasty won a complete victory.

When the news reached the main army led by Kangxi, Kangxi's mood, which had been gloomy for many days, finally brightened up a little.

After he inquired about the casualty ratio of the right wing army, his guard against Yinreng completely disappeared.

The right wing army annihilated 2,000 heavy cavalrymen of the Junggar tribe, but surprisingly, none of their own soldiers were killed.

This was all thanks to Dai Zi, who was hidden outside the city to conduct firearms research.

At the beginning of the enemy cavalry charge, the right wing army directly used artillery. Ten artillery pieces fired at the same time. The shells fell into the middle of the enemy and exploded, directly breaking the enemy's formation into pieces.

The cavalry wore heavy armor, but the horses' hooves and bellies were not protected, and the fragments of the exploding shells attacked these parts.

The consequence of a horse being injured is that it falls to the ground and loses its ability to fight.

The most fatal damage actually does not come from the shells, but from the comrades behind who cannot stop.

The heavy cavalry's horses were all fine horses, and with the armored men on their backs, the total weight was at least more than 500 kilograms.

After the cavalrymen in front who were hit by the artillery shells fell to the ground, the cavalrymen behind who had no time to react stepped directly on their comrades, causing their horses to slip and fall heavily to the ground.

Before the two armies officially collided, part of the heavy cavalry of the Junggar tribe was lost.

Upon seeing this, the commander of the right wing of the Qing army immediately ordered the withdrawal of the artillery and replaced it with a musket to fire another round. The firepower of the firearms battalion was too dense, and the heavy cavalry's armor was always unable to cover some places, so a lot of soldiers were lost.

This directly led to the remaining heavy cavalry who were not affected by the artillery shells being frightened and giving up the charge and starting to flee in all directions.

Even the enemy commander Burigude decisively abandoned his subordinates who were still wailing on the ground when he saw this situation.

He just rode his horse and fled into the distance.

After Kangxi understood the whole process, he finally witnessed the power of firearms intuitively.

Those were heavy cavalry on the grassland. If there were no artillery, even if the Qing Dynasty sent its most elite cavalry to charge head-on, the odds would probably be 40-60 on both sides.

The Qing Dynasty accounted for six.

After all, the Qing army was supported by the entire country, and its weapons and equipment were much better than those of the heavy cavalry on the grassland.

In the past, when facing the Dzungars, the Qing army's casualty ratio was always high, and it had never achieved such a brilliant result.

Kangxi's heart was filled with joy.

Yinreng was also dumbfounded when he learned about this.

Could it be that the right-wing forces drank Red Bull from 1982? So fierce?

At this time in the previous life, the Qing army and the Dzungar were fighting back and forth, and there was no one-sided crushing situation at all.

Even if the old man had experience from his previous life, he couldn't have raised the strength of the Qing army to such an outrageous level, right?

After he carefully understood the battle situation, all the doubts in his heart disappeared.

It seems that the old man borrowed some knowledge from his previous life on researching firearms.

Yes, no emperor could refuse such powerful thermal weapons.

He was busy with matters in the suburbs before and after the New Year, and didn't pay much attention to the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War in raising food and supplies. After the expedition, every time Kangxi called him to discuss matters, he would arrange the battle situation in a way that heavy cavalry would charge and infantry would clean up the battlefield.

I guess Kangxi didn't expect that the cannon would be so powerful.

After the New Year, the task of cooperating with the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to mobilize food and supplies seemed to fall on Yinzhi.

Yinreng was suddenly enlightened at this moment - the old man was as strict as ever in guarding against him.

Yinzhi has been acting mysterious in recent years. He said that he was stationed in the camp outside Beijing, but he disappeared for several months every time. I guess he has been busy with military affairs in this area in recent years.

On that day, Kangxi gathered everyone in his tent and excitedly circulated the battle report to his confidants. Yinreng was the first person to receive the report.

There was a line of big words clearly visible on the battle report: "General Wankou showed his power. Ten shells and muskets cooperated with each other to kill 800 enemies. The number of enemy soldiers affected reached 2,000."

Yinreng's eyes went dark.

"Wankou Dajiangjun? This can't be the name of that artillery, who on earth came up with such a tacky name? How uneducated!"

The smile on Kangxi's face froze for a moment.

This name was not given by him, but he nodded in agreement.

When Dai Zi was naming it, he felt that it was appropriate to the image of the cannon, so he nodded.

After all, Dai Zi has created a lot of things in the past few years, and it would be too difficult for him to rack his brains to think of a name for each one.

This brat Yinreng always spoils the mood when he is happy.

Fortunately, other people gave enough emotional value. After listening to their flattery, Kangxi soon became so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He even imagined the grand occasion after expanding his territory.
