February 20th, the third year of Tiande.
The 300,000-strong army of Fan State, led by Prince Xu, landed in Beijun City.
The Buddhist sect leader Fan Wuxiang who came with them received a piece of news - Fu Xiaoguan had never gone out to sea!
Fu Xiaoguan is not in Guanyun City either!
He is in the border town!
Fan Wuxiang's heart suddenly tightened. Could it be that Fu Xiaoguan had already noticed Fan Guo's movements?
Didn’t Your Majesty say that the news was accurate?
Why did he go to the border town?
This intelligence does not say, but now that the army has landed, what can we do now?
There is no turning back! There is no shore to turn back!
"Why on earth is this happening?"
"Replying to the Sect Master and His Royal Highness, my master said that this is the Spring Thunder Plan. This Spring Thunder will be sounded by the Sect Master in the border town!"
That means killing Fu Xiaoguan.
After discussing with Prince Xu, he made a decision, put down the coffin on the spot, and led all the monks to rush towards the border town - if he killed Fu Xiaoguan, the battle would be a victory!
Xu Yunqing was shocked, Zhou Tongtong...!
It’s over. Wouldn’t all my son’s arrangements in Guanyun City be in vain?
What was he doing in the border town?
Damn Zhou Tongtong, his son must not have brought many people with him to the border town. Fan Wuxiang has five saints and three thousand first-rate monk soldiers. No, he has to hold them back no matter what. He hopes someone will see his son off in the border town.
"Bald donkey, take my sword...!"
…
Shitou ambushed 50,000 navy troops in a mass grave thirty miles outside Beijun City. He had been waiting here for three days.
"Report..."
A scout came running over. Shitou jumped up and his face lit up with joy. "Here they are?"
"General, the enemy is coming and will be here in an hour."
Shitou grinned, "He Sandao and Wei Wubing, if I can wipe out these 300,000 enemies this time, I can finally become a military commander."
The ten division commanders around him also laughed, "Boss, this achievement is definitely greater than He Sandao's. We are the navy, but Minister Zhuo treats us as army envoys."
"Hey, get ready, roll out the cannons and give those guys a good beating. Oh, and keep a close eye on the scouts. Kill them!"
In the evening, when the sun was setting, Prince Xu came with an army of 300,000.
They had no idea that there was an army waiting for them in the dense forest of the cemetery beside the road.
Shi Tou lay on the ground, holding a telescope and watching excitedly. When the vanguard of this large army just passed by, he gave the order to attack.
“Boom…Boom…Boom…!”
The deafening sound of artillery sounded, and the shells landed accurately in the troops of Prince Xu. Explosions sounded, blood filled the air, and in an instant, broken limbs and bodies flew far away.
“Enemy attack…!”
The enemy was in disarray. Prince Xu frowned and calmly gave the order: "Get down! The Lightning Battalion will attack! Everyone, find cover and fire!"
"Bang bang bang bang..." Gunshots rang out, and the Lightning Battalion rushed into the dense forest like flying, but retreated in an instant. In just such a short moment, more than half of their men were killed or wounded!
"Charge...!" Shitou shouted. The first round of shelling was over, killing many people. Taking advantage of the enemy's panic, this guy rushed out and killed them all!
Soldiers in silver armor rushed out of the dense forest like the god of death.
"Fire in turns, the Tenth Division draws its swords!"
The soldiers of Fan State had never seen such a scene before. They fired randomly in panic, only to find that the enemy seemed to be fine after being shot, but they were doomed if they were shot.
How the hell do I fight this?
Prince Xu also found something wrong. Could it be that the gun that Fu Xiaoguan sold to Fan Guo was fake?
"Charge forward, draw your sword, and kill them!"
"General, General, watch over me! Anyone who takes even a single step back will be killed!"
However, it was of no use.
Under the repeated shooting of the five naval divisions, very few soldiers of the Fan State army were able to rush to their positions.
This is a one-sided massacre!
The Fan army was already far inferior to the Divine Sword Army, and with the Divine Sword Army's tortoise shell armor, they were no match at all - as Fan Tianning said, you know nothing about the Wu Dynasty's army.
Thanks to the strong qualities of individual soldiers and the crushing power of technology, the battle ended late at night.
What was left behind were more than 200,000 enemy corpses!
Prince Xu fled with his personal army, running all the way from Beijun City across the Lanjiang River and into Yunzhou.
Shi Tou ordered the army to rest in place. After statistics, 8,000 of the 100,000 navy soldiers were sacrificed. At the cost of 8,000 people, more than 200,000 soldiers of the Yu Dynasty were annihilated. This was naturally a record that shocked the world.
The next day, Shitou led his troops into Beijun City, boarded the enemy's ship, and sailed towards Changjin City, Chaoge, Fan State.
…
…
February 25, the third year of Tiande.
A continuous spring rain was falling on the flower-filled plain.
The endless plain should have been covered in green grass and vibrant colors, but now...
Now there are hundreds of miles of camps on both sides, with cold and killing flags, and sharp swords, spears, and halberds.
The second generation of red cannons were pushed out and placed in front of the Fourth Army.
Yu Chunqiu stood on the central army chariot, raised the telescope, and looked at Wei Wubing, the commander of the Fourth Army opposite.
He knew Wei Wubing, and Wei Wubing also knew him, Yu Chunqiu.
Back then, on the Jinniu Ancient Road in the Qinling Mountains, Wei Wubing had stayed in his tent.
By the way, there is also a young man named Zong Shiji and a girl named Wei Xianghan.
Wei Wubing was still a hunter at that time, but now, in just four years, he has grown into the commander of the Fourth Army of the Wu Dynasty Army.
Looking back at myself, I am still that mediocre general of the southern border army.
I heard that Zong Shiji and the others also went to Wu Dynasty. I don’t know whether he married the girl named Wei Xianghan. No, why would I think about these things?
Yu Chunqiu collected his thoughts, drew the sword from his waist, and slashed at the spring rain with one blow, roaring, "Kill...!"
The spring rain suddenly became chilly. Wei Wubing narrowed his eyes and sighed in his heart... "Artillery, prepare to fire."
The artillerymen under Yu Chunqiu also pushed hundreds of red cannons forward. When they were eighty feet away from the enemy, Yu Chunqiu suddenly widened his eyes.
He saw through the telescope that the artillery on the opposite side was firing shells!
The maximum range of the red cannon is seventy feet. What does it mean that the other party is firing now?
Right in his sight, the cannons on the opposite side spewed out flames in unison, and he saw a row of shells fired out and then fell...
"Boom boom..." Countless artillery shells exploded, and half of his artillery were destroyed in this round of shelling!
When did the Wu Dynasty’s cannons become able to fire so far?
Yu Chunqiu felt a chill in his heart, "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
His heart was bleeding. How could he fight this battle?
The enemy's artillery has a range of ten feet farther than ours. Once these cannons are pushed within range, the entire artillery regiment will probably be wiped out.
Wei Wubing put down the telescope and shook his head. There was nothing he could do. It was just that powerful.
It is said that the third generation of red cannons can fire farther and more accurately. Alas... it seems that no one on this land can be your Majesty's opponent.
Will he be lonely?
