Chapter 1276 Stealing the Camp The Sky-shattering Cannon turned out to be Xin Jiyao's reliance.
Now, Shangguanxiu finally understood where Xin Jiyao's confidence came from.
It was just one shot, but it was so powerful.
Hu Chong, Li Ling, and Menshak had never seen such a weapon before.
Fortunately, the shot did not hit the crowd, otherwise, a whole battalion of soldiers would have been blown up on the spot.
If several giant cannons of the Ningnan Army fire at the same time, no matter how many soldiers there are, they will not be enough to blow up the Ningnan people.
Even without Shangguan Xiu's order, Li Ling wanted to withdraw the soldiers.
After receiving Shangguan Xiu's order, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered the troops to retreat.
Hearing the continuous sound of gold ringing from the rear, the soldiers of the First Regiment of the Rebel Army were relieved.
Without any hesitation or eagerness to fight, the rear team became the front team and all retreated.
The Feng Army, which had just gone out to fight, was frightened back to its own camp by a shot from Ningnan Army.
It's not that Feng Jun is timid, but that the power of the Sky-shattering Cannon is so great that it has gone beyond what people can understand.
Even Shangguan Xiu would be stunned if the shells of the Sky-shaking Cannon exploded near him.
Not sure if I can hold on.
Back at the camp, all the generals gathered in the central military tent, their faces becoming gloomier than the others.
There was no sound in the huge central military tent.
Li Ling stamped her feet fiercely and said with resentment and annoyance: "How could the people of Ningnan possess such a powerful weapon, Your Highness?
This matter is too strange."
The generals present nodded and felt that Li Ling was right.
The huge cannon that the Ningnan people suddenly brought out was indeed too strange.
Since there are such powerful weapons, why have Ningnan people never seen them used on the battlefield before?
Now that the Ningnan army has been completely defeated, such powerful weapons are used instead.
This is too abnormal.
If Shangguan Xiu had never seen the Sky-shattering Cannon before, he would also find this strange.
However, he happened to be familiar with the Sky-shaking Cannon in Ningnan.
As early as when he visited Ningnan, he had witnessed the Sky-shaking Cannon with his own eyes.
More importantly, Qingyuan has confirmed that as long as he is willing to invest a lot of money and is willing to spend spiritual metal, it is not impossible to create a huge cannon.
He took a deep breath and said quietly: "The artillery used by the Ningnan people now is called the Sky-shattering Cannon."
Ah, everyone present was shocked and looked at Shangguan Xiu.
Shangguan Xiu continued: "Long before the outbreak of the third war, when I visited Ningnan, I had seen the sky-shattering cannon developed by the people of Ningnan in Tianjing, and now the power of the sky-shaking cannon seems to be even greater.
At first.”
After hearing Shangguan Xiu personally confirm that the people of Ningnan indeed possess this incredible weapon, everyone present looked at each other and became speechless.
Others may still lie, but Shangguan Xiu will never lie.
Now that the Ningnan people have deployed so many huge cannons in the Taimel Canyon, it has become almost impossible for our side to conquer the Ningnan Army's defense line from the front.
Task.
Hu Chong frowned and asked in confusion: "Your Highness, how can the power of firearms be so huge?
Even a giant artillery is too powerful."
Shangguan Xiu smiled bitterly and said: "If you imagine the Sky-shattering Cannon as a spiritual fire gun magnified countless times, and imagine the shells it fires as huge spiritual bombs, then do you still think its power is amazing?"
When all the generals heard this, they all took a breath.
Hu Chong said in surprise: "Your Highness means that the sky-shattering cannon is made of spiritual metal."
Shangguan Xiu nodded and said: "After research, the forge has confirmed that as long as you are willing to invest in spiritual metal, you can indeed create an astonishingly powerful firearm like the Sky-shattering Cannon."
After a moment of pause, he sighed softly and said: "The reason why I didn't mention this before is that the Ningnan people have never used the sky-shattering cannon on the battlefield.
I thought the Ningnan people used the sky-shaking cannon.
They are all deployed in the country.
Secondly, I don’t want to cause panic among the military officers.

It seems that the Ningnan people have already secretly transported the giant cannon to Duji.”
Hu Chong wondered: "But why didn't the Ningnan people use the sky-shattering cannon before?"
"Perhaps they wanted to catch our army off guard, or they didn't find a suitable opportunity to use it.
Who knows?"
Shangguan Xiu couldn't explain why the Ningnan people didn't use it before, but only used it at this time.
In short, he only understood one thing.
With the assistance of the sky-shattering cannon, the Ningnan Army's defense line, which seemed full of loopholes, was completely made up and became impregnable.
Just as Xin Jiyao vowed, not to mention three days, even three years, Don't even think about tearing apart the Ningnan Army's defense line.
Menshak shook his head helplessly and said: "The Ningnan Army has deployed several huge cannons in the defense line.
If our army continues to attack them, we will undoubtedly seek death."
Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes and said: "So, if we want to break through the Ningnan Army's defense line, we must first destroy the huge cannons in the Ningnan Army's defense line."
All the generals present nodded, indicating that Shangguan Xiu was right.
The latter pondered for a moment and said categorically: "Tonight, our army will pretend to attack the enemy's defense line from the front.
We will select elite men to sneak into the enemy's defense line from the flanks.
We must destroy all the huge cannons in the Ningnan Army's defense line." damaged" "Your Highness," all the generals bowed in response.
In the evening, the Feng Army went into battle again.
According to Shangguan Xiu's order, the main force of the Feng Army made a feint attack from the front, and sent hundreds of elite troops to penetrate the Ningnan Army's defense line from the flanks.
However, the Ningnan Army seemed to have been prepared for the Feng Army's actions.
Although hundreds of elites composed of Feng and Duji people successfully sneaked into the Ningnan Army's defense line, they also fell into the trap that the Ningnan Army had arranged in advance. in the encirclement.
Hundreds of elites were surrounded by tens of thousands of Ningnan legions, and only a few dozen escaped in the end.
This was because Shangguan Xiu learned that they were in danger, rushed to support him personally, and fought desperately, and he was lucky enough to rescue dozens of people.
Heavy siege.
After failing to destroy the sky-shattering cannon, on the frontal battlefield, the Feng Army's feint attack was really just a feint attack.
The soldiers did not dare to approach the Ningnan Army's position at all.
The offensive was made with loud thunder and light rain, which took most of the effort.
Overnight, in the end they returned without success and retreated to the camp.
On the third day, which was the last day agreed upon by Shangguan Xiu and Xin Jiyao, the Feng Army once again opened up its formation in front of the Ningnan Army's defense line, but did not dare to launch an attack.
Just when Feng Jun was hesitant, reports came from the rear that the main force of Ningnan Army was less than twenty miles away from the Taimel Canyon.
With the arrival of the main force of the Ningnan Army, the Feng Army had completely lost the opportunity to capture the enemy's defense line.
Shangguan Xiu could only order the entire army to retreat back to its own camp.
The 300,000-strong Feng Army was held back by the hundreds of thousands of Ningnan Army in the Taimel Canyon for three full days, which also successfully bought time for the arrival of the main force of the Ningnan Army.
The main force of the Ningnan Army did not encounter any obstruction.
Hundreds of thousands of troops successfully passed through the Thamel Canyon, crossed the Thamel Mountains, and entered the northern part of Duki.
The Feng Army, which was so close at hand, could only watch as the main force of Ning Nan Army passed by in a swaggering manner under their noses, unable to stop them.
Regarding such a result, Shangguanxiu was also full of helplessness.
It wasn't that he didn't try his best, but that he simply used his strength.
When only the Sixth and Eleventh Army of Ningnan were stationed in the Taimel Canyon, the Feng Army was restrained by the Ningnan Army's huge cannon and could not attack the canyon.
When the main force of the Ningnan Army arrived here, the Feng Army was even more It is difficult to take a step into the Thamel Gorge.
Shangguan Xiu could imagine how angry Luo Ren, who had always been strong-willed, was now.
An army of 300,000 people could not defeat the canyon where more than 100,000 people were stationed.
If I were not Shangguan Xiu, if I were not Luo Ren's immediate superior, I am afraid that his punishment order would have fallen on me long ago.
The soldiers of the Feng Army were demoralized and huddled in the camp, staying behind closed doors.
Just because Feng Jun didn't go out to provoke Ning Nan Army didn't mean that Ning Nan Army would let Feng Jun go.
That night, Shangguan Xiu was resting in his tent.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of gunfire outside.

It was unclear which direction the gunfire came from.
It seemed that there was fighting in all directions.
He rolled over from the bed and sat up.
At this time, Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei ran in from outside in disheveled clothes and said in a hurry: "Brother Xiu, Ning Nan's army came to steal the camp."
"How many invading enemies are there?"
Shangguan Xiu asked while getting dressed.
"Ji Duo Bian Yan is the main force of Ning Nan's army," Xiao Jue said with an ugly expression.
Shangguanxiu took a deep breath, dressed neatly, and shouted in a deep voice: "Send orders to all armies to meet the enemy with all their strength."
As he spoke, he strode out of his sleeping tent.
When we got outside, we saw fires shooting into the sky from all directions, and even the night above our heads turned red.
"Report" Following the hurried shouting, a military policeman galloped over.
When he got close to Shangguanxiu, he had no time to dismount.
He stepped in and said: "Your Highness, the defense of Xiying has been broken.
The Ningnan Army has now attacked from outside Xiying."
Enter our army camp" As soon as the gendarme finished speaking, several more gendarmes came on horseback.
They all held muskets in their hands.
They shouted loudly: "Report" from a long distance away.
"Report to Your Highness, Beiying's defenses have been breached."
Shangguan Xiu could understand that the West Camp was broken.
That was where Wang Tingjun's army was stationed.
Ningnan's army came to attack in a big way, and Du Ji and Wang Ting's army couldn't resist it.
It was not surprising.
But the North Camp was garrisoned by the Third Army.
How could it be broken by the Ningnan Army so quickly?
In front of the Ningnan Army, how could the Third Army be so vulnerable?
Before he could figure out what was going on, the military policemen who were galloping over suddenly pulled the triggers of their muskets.
Bang bang bang several projectiles flew towards Shangguan Xiu.
This sudden change was beyond the expectations of everyone present.
Who could have imagined that the military police would actually open fire on Shangguan Xiu.
When people realize that something is wrong, it is already too late to save them.
Anyone else would probably not be able to withstand this sneak attack by the military police, but Shangguan Xiu had an incredible extra shield in his hand to block him in front of him.
Ding, ding, ding, all the projectiles hit the shield, and a few sparks suddenly appeared.
Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei were the first to recover from the shock and shouted in unison: "It's a trick of the enemy that sneaked in."
As he spoke, the two of them became weak and disappeared.
When they appeared again, they had appeared in front of several military policemen in the air.
They slashed out with their spiritual swords and the heads of the two military policemen fell to the ground, headless.
The corpse continued to ride on the horse, galloping forward.
Shangguanxiu gritted his teeth, turned the shield in his hand into a sword, and rushed towards the remaining military police.
Before they arrived, the wind blade arrived first, and several military policemen and horses were swept into the air by the wind blade.
Blood rained from the sky, and a fishy wind blew around Shangguanxiu.
He retreated and shouted to the surroundings: "Immediately order all armies to withdraw to the east camp."
The main force of the Ningnan Army is coming to attack.
With its current combat strength, it is no match for the main force of the Ningnan Army.
It is only a matter of time before the camp defenses are broken.
Rather than spreading out the entire army and being defeated by the enemy one by one, it is better to withdraw together.

Even if you really can't defeat Dongying, you can choose to abandon the camp and retreat towards Haji.
The Ningnan Army's stolen camp was obviously carefully planned.
Not only did it come suddenly and fiercely, but there were also a large number of Ningnan Army disguised as Feng Army, sneaking into the Feng Army's camp, waiting for opportunities, and facing the unprepared enemy.
The Feng army launched a sneak attack.
Fortunately, the Feng Army's reaction speed was fast enough, and they quickly gathered their forces and retreated to Dongying to minimize their own battle losses.
In the East Camp of the Feng Army Camp, the Third Army Corps headed by Hu Chong was the first to retreat here.
A large number of soldiers from the Rebel Army Army and Wang Ting Army Army also gradually retreated to the East Camp.
However, Li Ling, the commander of the Rebel Army Army, was late.
Has not retreated yet
