Chapter 36: The Impact of Firearms!


I lamented that the bandits in Liangshan were so ferocious with their firearms.

I just lamented that I still had to face the bandits outside the village.

Today Zeng Nong stood on the village pass and saw the power of the firearm.

He was frightened by the sight.

He looked at his four sons and two teachers and said: "Those thieves are too powerful, so we should surrender."

When he heard that his father was about to surrender, Zeng Suo, who had the best relationship with Zeng Sheng, was furious.

He gritted his teeth and shouted: "Father, Wu Lang was killed by them.

How can we not avenge such a deep hatred?"

Although Shi Wengong was a little timid, he was the one who advocated fighting Liangshan before.

If he changes his mind now, it does not mean that he was wrong before.

Shi Wengong also advised: "Elders, don't worry too much.

In my opinion, the number of firearms of that group of thieves should not be large, otherwise they could attack the village directly.

They should have used them up, and then they had to stop.

The thieves and bandits Without firearms, it's not a big deal.

We still have nearly two thousand soldiers and horses, and we can rely on the villages to hold on.

At the same time, we can send people secretly.

Go to Lingzhou to mobilize reinforcements, and quickly fly to Beijing to ask Mr.

Guan to report to the court, mobilize troops, select generals, send more officers and soldiers, and divide the troops into two groups to attack Liangshanbo and encircle Wei to rescue Zhao.

This group of thieves will not want to fight.

We have no choice but to retreat.

Go all the way to Zengtou City.

When the bandits retreat, we will unite our officers and soldiers inside and outside to attack the bandits, and we will surely win a complete victory."

As soon as Shi Wengong finished speaking, assistant teacher Su Ding also said: "What Teacher Shi said is that although the gang of thieves now have many soldiers and horses, no matter how many there are, they can't outnumber the imperial court.

As long as the imperial army arrives, our crisis can be resolved.

Now we only need It is better to retreat; wait for reinforcements to arrive and discuss it later.”

Hearing Shi Wengong say that the bandits had run out of firearms, Zeng felt a little relieved when he got them.

Without the firearms, he should be able to hold on for a month or two with just his two thousand troops and the terrain.

Once the imperial army arrives, any crisis will be resolved.

The Zeng family made up their minds to hold on to the Liangshan Military Camp outside the village of Zengtou City.

The rear army led by Huang Xin had already joined the main army in the evening.

Qin Ming was injured in his shoulder.

After emergency treatment by the medical soldiers trained by An Daoquan, Shi Jin asked Yanshun to take 300 people to escort him and a group of wounded soldiers back to Liangshan for further treatment.

In the military commander's camp, a group of leaders sat around on the horse.

Shi Jin was sitting in the upright seat, listening to Zhu Wu's post-war report.

"Today our army suffered 279 casualties.

The main casualties came from the melee between the former army led by Qin Ming and the Zeng family army.

Our army also captured 832 people and killed 1,892 Zeng family villagers.

This battle was a great victory for our army. " Hearing the casualty data between the enemy and the enemy, Shi Jin smiled knowingly.

When he was about to say a few words of encouragement, he realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

If we had heard of such results in the past, I'm afraid many leaders would be clamoring to drink and celebrate.

But what is different from the past is that, except for heartless guys like Li Kui, generals such as Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Luan Yanyu are not in high spirits, and are even a little decadent.

Shi Jin saw that some brothers who should have been happy about the victory were in bad moods, but Shi Jin, who was also a general, understood their mood to some extent.

Unlike them, Shi Jin practiced martial arts hard in order to achieve success in the early stage.

It was a tool that was no big deal if it was thrown away after use.

But for Lu Zhishen and others, martial arts is the skill that they need to make a living.

It is through this martial arts that they can stand out, be valued by others, and become leaders.

If martial arts are useless in the future, what else will they rely on to survive?

In addition to martial arts, most of them have no other survival skills at all.

Even in combat, people like Lu Zhishen and Wu Song relied on their own bravery to inspire their subordinates to fight bravely.

In leading battles, they also relied on years of experience.

They had never learned the art of war seriously.

After they saw that powerful firearm today, no matter how brave they were, they couldn't resist it.

Then why did I practice Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer?

They are all worried and confused about their future prospects Seeing that many people were confused and worried, Shi Jin clapped his hands and shouted: "Brothers, do you think this firearm is very powerful?

In future wars, generals like you will have no use for it."

Wu Song nodded bitterly and said: "Brother, you used to remind us to read more books, saying that martial arts will no longer be of much use in the future, and uniting troops in combat is the right way.

Does this mean that martial arts is outdated?"

Shi Jin looked at Wu Song, thought for a moment and said, "I'm not going to lie to you brothers.

In the future, martial arts will only account for a very small part.

But it's not your turn to worry.

At least in the next fifty years, martial arts will still be very important." of."

Shi Jin looked at Wu Yong and asked Wu Yong, a scholar, to talk about it, which would be more effective.

Wu Yong saw Shi Jin's look and immediately stood up and said: "Yes, brothers.

This thunder cannon seems powerful, but it may be more effective when used to defend the city, but it has many shortcomings when used in field battles.

This time The ability to achieve such results was also due to the terrain.

Zengtou City was surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, which gave the opponent a terrain advantage.

Their troops could not deploy here.

It was for this reason that they Dare to go out to fight in the field, hoping to rely on force They can defeat our Liangshan Army.

However, this is their advantage and disadvantage.

Their troops are too concentrated.

When they are bombarded, they can only run back.

Many of them were trampled and hacked to death by their companions.

In addition, our thunder cannon suddenly attacked, which caused great fear to the opponent.

This is how we can achieve such results if it is a plain.

That’s great” Zhu Wu also said: "In addition, the cost of this thunder cannon is high and it is not easy to make.

Moreover, this catapult is troublesome to operate, difficult to move, has a single attack range, and is difficult to control.

On the plain, the enemy attacks from several directions.

If you come over, it will be difficult for this catapult to effectively kill the enemy.

And as you brothers have seen, it is up to you to capture the prisoners and capture the city.

These firearms cannot do it."

I heard Shi Jin, Zhu Wu, and Wu use their analysis and persuasion.

I heard that firearms such as thunderbolts and cannons are not omnipotent, martial arts are still very useful, and people like myself are still useful.

Lu Zhishen and Wu Song felt better.

But they have already made up their mind that if they have children, they must let them study.

This warrior can no longer do it If you dare to disobey and not study, you will be beaten to death.

Seeing that the morale of the brothers had improved, Shi Jin took another shot in the arm.

He said: "Okay, brothers, don't worry.

We have such a sharp weapon in hand.

Whether we are recruiting people or have other plans in the future, aren't we more confident?"

Since the day Wu Yong and Shi Jin were recruited, they would be loyal ministers, and if they were not recruited, they would be rebels.

Many leaders believed it.

If you don't recruit me, I will of course rebel.

Can we still wait for them to chop off my head?

However, the idea of ​​rebellion in their hearts was quite different from that of Shi Jin and Wu Yong.

Their idea of ​​rebellion was to dominate the mountain and become king.

Except for a few people, most of the leaders have never thought about it, or they don't have the courage to really rebel and seize the Zhao family.

But now that they saw this sharp weapon, they began to have other ideas in their minds.

Originally there was nothing remarkable about the officers and soldiers, but there were just too many of them.

But with such a weapon, there might really be a chance, if the eldest brother becomes the emperor.

I don’t dare to think about becoming a prince, but how can we, brothers who have followed him through life and death, become generals?

Then my descendants will also be able to enjoy blessings, and they will no longer have to worry and be afraid like me all day long.

With my eldest brother's ability and our Liangshan's strength, he should be in charge of this world.

Only when the eldest brother sits down can the people of this world live a good life.

Look, doesn’t that nursery rhyme also say that people look forward to the stars, the moon, and big brother?

The eldest brother is the one destined by fate.

With the eldest brother’s benevolence and righteousness, if the eldest brother is not the emperor, where is the justice of heaven?

The emergence of this sharp weapon made many leaders determined to rebel and support their eldest brother Shi Jin as emperor.

As your strength grows, so will your ambition.

In the past, they were satisfied with occupying the mountains and becoming kings.

Now that they see that they are powerful, they are naturally unwilling to just sit in a small pool of water, and naturally want to live in a wider sky.
