Chapter 1389 Serving Up Cannonballs
Chapter 1389 Serving Up Cannonballs
"Bring all the cannons up!"
Qin Ming ordered all the cannons in the legion to be brought out. This time, the vanguard legion was equipped with a full twenty cannons newly built by the Divine Machine Legion this year, and their power was top-notch!
"Master, although we have cannons, we don't have many shells."
Huang Hsin said that although they have cannons, the shells are a big problem.
"not much?"
Qin Ming was somewhat surprised; how could there not be many?
"Because we need to march quickly, Master, you said you wanted to travel lighter, so we discarded a lot of artillery shells."
Huang Xin said that artillery shells are too heavy and not suitable for rapid marches, so Qin Ming did not bring many with him at the time.
"Hmm... I didn't think this through. How much is there now?"
"If all twenty doors are used at the same time, it will probably only take five rounds."
Five wheels? One hundred of them?
Qin Ming regretted it; he should have brought more.
“That’s quite a lot, Master. After all, the Jurchens haven’t seen this kind of thing much.”
"Push all the cannons to the front of the camp and push all the shells up there."
After thinking it over, Qin Ming decided to use all the cannons!
"Yes, Master!"
……
The Jin army camp.
"You bastards! Do the three Xue Lihua brothers even have brains?!"
When Wanyan Loushi arrived, his first thought was to see the vanguard, but he was shocked to learn that all three vanguard officers were gone!
How did they die?
Wanyan Loushi still didn't quite believe it.
"Reporting to the commander, the three vanguards were all killed by an enemy general!"
The last remaining Meng'an in the vanguard army said to Wanyan Loushi.
"What general?! Be more specific!"
Wanyan Loushi exclaimed, "How dare this man kill three of our vanguard soldiers? Has he eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?"
"It was a general wielding a spiked club, and the banner on which was written something like, something like, something like, Qin something."
This man said he didn't recognize many Chinese characters, only the simplest ones.
"Can't even remember the name? Forget it, I'll go challenge them myself."
Wanyan Loushi said that it was better not to say anything, and that he would personally lead a group there.
"General, are you going in person?"
The vanguard soldiers said, "Commander, could you please not be so aggressive?"
"I'm not going, you guys go?"
Wanyan Loushi said, "Who told your vanguard army to be without a single vanguard soldier? Whose vanguard army is in such a sorry state?"
"Brother Lou, where are you going?"
Wanyan Yinshu also came over, and as soon as he arrived, he heard that Wanyan Loushi was about to set off.
"Go and take down the enemy vanguard."
Wanyan Loushi was in a bad mood, and his voice was muffled.
"Brother Lou, calm down, it's not that serious."
Wanyan Yinshu quickly stopped Wanyan Loushi. Good heavens, he's gone mad! What kind of general, upon arriving on the battlefield, would immediately go and kill the enemy's vanguard?
"He killed three of my vanguard soldiers, so can't I go and kill him?"
Wanyan Loushi's anger had not been suppressed.
"Brother Lou, you are the War God of our Great Jin Dynasty, how can you act rashly? Here, I will go in your place!"
Seeing Wanyan Loushi's agitated state, Wanyan Yinshu knew that it wouldn't work if he wasn't calmed down, since the Jin Kingdom needed a composed commander.
"You? Fine... you can go if you want."
After hearing what Wanyan Yinshu said, Wanyan Loushi thought about it and agreed.
After all, Wanyan Yinshu's current strength is second only to himself in the entire Great Jin, and that's only because he entered the pinnacle realm earlier than Wanyan Yinshu.
“That’s right. Brother Lou, you should go and meet up with the Emperor. Leave this to me.”
Wanyan Yinshu could let Wanyan Loushi go first, and then he would stay behind to take charge of the vanguard's affairs.
How strong is the enemy?
He went straight to the point.
"They're very strong. Even the three vanguards combined couldn't beat them."
"Will the three brothers of Xue Lihua work together?"
Wanyan Yinshu had heard of the Xue Lihua Four Brothers, who were considered among the more capable fighters of the younger generation in the Jin Kingdom, but in his opinion, their individual combat strength was just so-so.
"Yes, oh no, the North Vanguard was reckless and was defeated at the beginning. Later, the East Vanguard and the West Vanguard worked together, and then the North Vanguard went up to help again."
"Three idiots!"
After hearing the description, Wanyan Yinshu cursed the three men. They didn't have his strength, so why didn't they cooperate and instead showed off? They were defeated one by one, causing the army to lose a battle for nothing!
"Prepare the horses, and lead 50,000 men into battle with me!"
Wanyan Yinshu also wields a long spear, the kind with a white horse and a silver spear, which looks very cool.
"Dong dong dong..."
The Jin army beat their drums, and led by Wanyan Yinshuke, 50,000 troops took the lead and pressed towards the Dayi army camp!
"Master, the Jurchens have entered the battle!"
On the Thunderbolt Legion's side, Qin Ming and Huang Xin were supervising the placement of cannons when they suddenly heard the sound of war drums. Looking up, they saw the gates of the Jin army camp in the distance open, and a large army was pouring out!
"A bunch of shameless bastards!"
Qin Ming's expression darkened. The Jin army now outnumbered their own by more than tenfold. A surprise attack at this moment...
Well, it's war after all. War is about winning and losing, not about shamelessness.
"Get all the cannons aimed, and when they come within range, just blast them! Use up all the shells!"
Qin Ming gave the order directly.
"Master, shouldn't we wait for them to say anything?"
Huang Xin asked tentatively.
"What are you waiting for? Do you even understand what the Jurchens are saying?"
Qin Ming said, "Since nobody understands anyway, let's stop talking nonsense and just blast him!"
Wanyan Yinshu had no idea what he was about to face. He only knew that he was leading 50,000 men into battle, and even if he couldn't win, he wouldn't lose.
Moreover, no one came out from the opposite military camp, which means that the other side is probably... rather cowardly.
"Boom bang bang..."
But when he advanced to a distance closer to the Thunder Legion's camp, he suddenly heard a series of loud noises, and then twenty huge spherical objects flew out from the opposite camp, hurtling towards his troops at great speed!
"Falling rocks, scatter, defensive formation!!"
Wanyan Yinshu could immediately order the entire army to defend, while inwardly cursing, "These good people really have no martial ethics; they've all lost the awareness to fight face-to-face in a fair and square manner!"
However, Wanyan Yinshu made a mistake earlier. He thought that what the enemy was throwing out now were stones from a catapult, and that as long as the troops dispersed, it would be fine.
What he didn't know was that the shells Qin Ming brought this time were the exploding shells that Ling Zhen had finally improved over three years!
The cannonball struck with a deafening roar, exploding amidst the Jin army's ranks! The immense destructive force sent limbs and debris flying everywhere, terrifying the Jin soldiers!
Even Wanyan Yinshu was stunned at this moment.
This, what's the situation?
This...this is a firearm?
"Hahaha! Great! Brother Ling Zhen, your cannon is really powerful!"
Qin Ming saw this scene clearly and felt instantly relieved!
Damn Jurchens, come on again! I'll unleash my massive cannonballs!
