"ah?"
Kong Chen was confused: "Brother Yan, don't be careless. It's not like you don't know the power of the iron gun. You can defeat Moss, and the iron gun is indispensable. Oh, I didn't expect that Europe also developed the iron gun. This It was so unexpected.”
Accident?
Yan Qi was not surprised at all.
Because Europe already has industrial buds.
Why did Yan Qi evacuate more than 800 scientists from the European Academy of Sciences?
Every effort was made to transport these scientists to Dahua and give them the best treatment and conditions.
Its purpose is to reduce the number of European scientists and slow down their research and development speed.
At the same time, scientists from the Dahua Academy of Engineering and the Academy of Sciences learned humbly and completed a trilogy of understanding, imitation, and innovation regarding the research directions of European scientists.
Today's Greater China Academy of Sciences and Engineering have entered an explosive stage in which Chinese are the mainstay and European scientists are the supplement.
Among them, the development of firecrackers, gunpowder, fire bombs, and smoke bombs all came from Dahua scientists.
This shows that Dahua has already surpassed Europe in the scientific research and development stage.
At least, in Europe now, there are only iron blunderbuss, not fire blunderbuss.
This shows that they did not develop real gunpowder.
Without gunpowder, where can we start talking about gunpowder?
However, since they can make iron blunderbuss, it shows that their mechanical system is still quite advanced.
Thinking of this, Yan Qi was also very pleased.
Fortunately, I had the foresight to poach most of the European scientists.
Otherwise, if Europe develops firecrackers first, the consequences will be disastrous.
One step faster today means that tomorrow you will be a hundred steps faster.
Taking a step slowly today means that you will be beaten violently in the days to come.
If you sail against the current, you will retreat if you don't advance.
"Ahem, brother Yan..."
Kong Chen coughed a few times and reminded Yan Qi, who was deep in thought: "In my opinion, we should withdraw Guan Ming and Yuan Hong first, and attack the Barun River first. Anyway, our goal is not the capital of the Dashi Kingdom. ."
Yan Qi shook his head: "There is no need to withdraw. We must give these European guys a taste of their power. They are just blunderbuss. It's no big deal. I have a way to deal with them."
Kong Chen said: "Could it be that your Excellency has brought the Fire Gun Camp? I think only the Fire Gun Camp can deal with the Europeans' Iron Guns."
Yan Qi shook his head: "The Fire Gun Camp is under the jurisdiction of Leng Youxue. Leng Youxue is still maintaining order in the Turks. Naturally, the Fire Gun Camp cannot be put to use."
Kong Chen frowned: "Could it be that Brother Yan still has a way to deal with the iron gun?"
Yan Qi's eyes were strange: "Because I use iron guns, I know the power and shortcomings of iron guns very well."
"The iron gun has a long range, strong lethality, wide range of damage, and very obvious power. However, its shortcomings are more prominent, such as slow reloading and easy explosion of the barrel. Of course, the iron gun has a fatal drawback."
Kong Chen asked: "What is the fatal drawback?"
Yan Qi's eyes were sly: "The reason why the iron gun has a long range and strong explosive power is because it uses the mechanical principle of air compression, expansion, and explosion."
"However, when it is in a heavy rain, the weather is humid and the air pressure is low, resulting in insensitive air compression and air expansion, which affects the mechanical blast and greatly slows down the shooting speed."
"Even if the mechanical structure of the iron gun is not precise enough, it will not even be possible to shoot in heavy rain."
Kong Chen suddenly realized: "It turns out that the iron gun has such a fatal flaw."
Yan Qidao: "Anything made by machinery will have obvious shortcomings, but they are just not known to outsiders. Ordinary people only know the power of the iron gun, but they don't know the shortcomings of the iron gun."
"Hey, unfortunately, I am not an ordinary person. I know all the shortcomings of iron guns."
Kong Chen suddenly became happy: "Since Iron Gun is afraid of heavy rain, it's easy. As long as Guan Ming and Yuan Hong attack like tigers and wolves in heavy rain, they will definitely defeat the Europeans."
Yan Qi gave Kong Chen a thumbs up: "Brother Kong is really smart. As soon as I remind you, you will understand how to transport troops."
Kong Chen said: "I immediately sent a secret message to Guan Ming and Yuan Hong to tell them the good news."
Yan Qidao: "You send the secret message first, and then I will lead the army to join Guan Ming and Yuan Hong."
Kong Chen was surprised: "Brother Yan, why are you going to the front line?"
Yan Qidao: "Next, we will definitely face fierce hand-to-hand fighting. In terms of hand-to-hand combat, who can resist the Turks? Don't forget, I am taking Xima with me, and Xima has one hundred thousand Turkic soldiers."
Kong Chen was overjoyed: "Brother Yan is the one who has the best plan."
…
Kong Chen immediately sent secret messages to Guan Ming and Yuan Hong.
At the same time, Yan Qi asked Xima to lead 100,000 Turkic troops and rush to Karenci, the capital of the Dashi Kingdom, to join Yuan Hong and Guan Ming.
…
some time afterwards.
Rodane took advantage of the iron gun's weapon and took the initiative to attack, hoping to cause more casualties to Guan Ming and Yuan Hong.
Guan Ming and Yuan Hong are not stupid generals who study hard and fight hard.
Rodane pursued them, and they retreated.
As soon as Rodane withdrew, they pursued him.
Anyway, Guan Ming and Yuan Hong were mostly cavalry. They came and went like the wind, and they didn't try to occupy the city. They were very free and flexible.
But Rodane had to guard the city.
The flexibility is far inferior to Guan Ming and Yuan Hong.
With this kind of restraint, neither lose nor win.
No one can do anything to help anyone.
…
Yan Qi finally arrived and met Guan Ming and Yuan Hong.
The two reported the battle situation to Yan Qi.
Yan Qi nodded with satisfaction: "General Guan Ming and General Yuan Hong did not advance or retreat. They used diversionary tactics. The enemy advanced and we retreated, the enemy retreated and we advanced, and the enemy stationed we harassed. This tactics is used beautifully, I just I can send you five words, thank you Klass."
Guan Ming and Yuan Hong burst out laughing after receiving Yan Qi's praise.
Guan Ming said: "It's just that we didn't win the European guy, so we were a little anxious."
Yan Qidao: "Why are you anxious? We just have to wait until there is no heavy rain. At this moment, what matters is patience. Moreover, the heavy rain is coming soon."
Guan Ming asked: "How did Master Yan know?"
Yan Qidao: "You have to ask the local elders who live here. Their knowledge of climate experience far exceeds ours."
"I have asked many old people about it. Now that we are entering autumn, there will be storms every year when summer and autumn meet. We should be prepared and wait for the storms to come."
"Yes! Follow Master Yan's instructions." Guan Ming nodded.
Yan Qidao: "Spread the news that I have arrived at the front line to boost the confidence of Dilefa and the European guys and make them have the urge to capture me."
"yes!"
Yuan Hong went to do it immediately.
…
Yuan Hong deliberately spread the news and it spread quickly.
The news of Yan Qi's arrival at the front line was immediately learned by Dilefa.
Diller found Rodane furiously.
"Duke, there is important news. Yan Qi has rushed to the front line."
"What? Yan Qi is here?"
Rodane was extremely excited: "Great, I didn't expect Yan Qi to dare to go to the front line in person. Haha, as long as I catch Yan Qi and hand it over to the Pope, then I will get the support of the Pope and be promoted from Duke to King. It’s natural, hahaha.”
