Li Hantong is now full of surprises.
Fortunately, his military exploits have been reported to military advisor Yang Yun, and his name is still registered with the Little Sage.
After all, it was Tian's Villa that he attacked yesterday, and Tian Yuanwai used Wei Zheng's poem to express his gratitude.
This was the first time for the Song Dynasty. After all, the Song Dynasty had never had a good impression of literati and soldiers.
The literati of the Song Dynasty always referred to soldiers as thieves and soldiers.
What kind of image do these thieves have in the army? They are just vulgar warriors.
Unexpectedly, there are now literati who use Wei Zheng's poems and write calligraphy to express their gratitude to the security team.
This is the first time that a scorpion poops.
It can be said that some literati have begun to change their impression of soldiers.
They are no longer an army of thieves, they are gentlemen who stick to their word.
You must know who Wei Zheng is. He is a famous prime minister throughout the ages. He and the former Emperor Taizong created the Zhenguan rule.
It can be said that the promotion and expansion of their tank battalion is already a certainty.
But what makes Li Hantong unhappy is that the security regiment also has a chariot battalion, which also defeated the Hu people's thousand-man team with less and more, and can also be promoted to deputy general.
This was the second priority. What made him even more unhappy was that military advisor Yang Yun asked two chariot battalions to attack the Hu people in Guandi Temple from two mountain roads.
The reason is simple: there are three thousand barbarians on the mountain, and two chariot battalions must be used to attack them.
Regardless of the high-sounding reasons, military advisor Yang Yun obviously wanted to test the capabilities of the two chariot battalions.
Li Hantong was thinking as he saw the chariot battalion attacking the mountain.
Li Hantong attacked the road up the mountain. This mountain road only accommodated two carriages and was surrounded by trees on both sides.
The Hu people are numerous and have made full preparations on both sides.
They built a stone barrier, and the trees on both sides were filled with barbarian archers.
The chariot battalion had just tried to attack, but it suffered a setback.
The barbarians targeted the chariot camp and kept throwing rolling stones.
In order to protect the horses, the chariot battalion had to temporarily stop the attack.
When Wang Gen, the leader of the first formation, saw that the plan failed, he immediately changed his mind.
He asked people to find the Eight Immortals Table and put a wet quilt on it.
When the barbarians saw the chariot battalion using the table formation, Captain Catalu did not panic.
"Rockets! Rockets!" he shouted as he launched.
The barbarians fired rockets and rolling stones.
Suddenly, the entire mountain road was filled with rolling stones, and rockets were shooting like stars.
After all, there is no ready water in the mountains like in the city.
Wang Gen had no choice but to ask his soldiers to water the table array while attacking upwards.
Bang bang, a rolling stone hit the Eight Immortals table on one side.
Whoosh, rockets were constantly being thrown in front of them.
The soldiers waved their spears desperately, and the rockets were continuously swept away.
Rumbling, continuous rolling stones slowed the progress of the chariot battalion.
Li Hantong shook his head. Wang Gen's method was sufficient for defense, but not enough for offense.
"Can you remove the cyclone cannon from the tank and let the soldiers attack with the cyclone cannon?" Li Hanshu thought for a while and made a suggestion.
Li Hantong stepped forward and took a closer look at the chariot, shook his head, and sighed: "This chariot is in one piece and is not easy to move."
Having said this, he squinted his eyes and looked at the mountain, lost in thought.
The chariot launch distance was only sixty paces, but that was on flat ground.
Now it is an upward attack. It is good that the chariot can launch fifty steps, or even only forty steps.
At the same time, the Hu people were just the opposite. Due to gravity, the shooting distance of their arrows was increased by 20%.
Most of the barbarians' sharp arrows can reach a distance of more than a hundred steps, and some can reach a distance of more than 150 steps.
Yesterday he attacked the villa. There was a flat dry field in front of the villa, so this situation did not exist.
Attacking from the bottom of the mountain today, he encountered the same difficulty as the other chariot battalion.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly think that he was lucky to have a tunnel to attack, which was why he took the villa so easily.
Thinking of this, Li Hantong looked at the most special tank. It could not fire thunder, but it could fire lead bullets.
Li Hantong patted his head, wondering why he had forgotten the Shadowless Cannon.
The Shadowless Cannon fires thousands of lead bullets each time, which extremely consumes precious lead bullets, so it is generally not used if it is a last resort.
Zhang Chu is the deputy captain of the third formation, but yesterday he was extremely aggrieved.
As the only shadowless cannon in the entire chariot battalion, he did not play any role in attacking the villa.
You know, his shooting is the best in the entire chariot battalion, and his eyesight is also the best, so he has the only right to use the shadowless cannon.
Now the camp leader gave an order for him to go to the battlefield.
This is the Shadowless Cannon's first battle, so it can't be messed up, Zhang Chu thought to himself.
The gunmen kept waving their spears and shooting down rockets fired by the barbarians.
The gunman made him feel both safe and a little concerned.
This is not flat ground. The barbarians are throwing arrows down from the mountains.
The gunner had to raise the height of his rifle in order to shoot down the rocket.
The increased height of the spear will inevitably affect his shooting.
Now he deeply understands what it means to have your cake and eat it too.
In the envious eyes of everyone, he aimed the shadowless cannon at the barbarian who kept shooting arrows.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. You just saw the majesty of his launch, but you didn't expect the spear to block the launch.
Zhang Chu said to the gunman: "Wu Lang, please pause for a moment, I'm going to launch."
Zhang Wulang was stunned and immediately understood that the formation commander was about to launch.
The formation leader was afraid that the long gun would affect the firing, so he issued a warning.
If you don't use a long gun, it will obviously not be effective in defense; if you use a long gun, it will affect shooting.
But the camp leader wants to launch now and there can be no delay.
He thought for a while, shouted loudly, put away his spear, took out his sword, stood up and waved it desperately.
At the same time, the shadowless cannon flashed with lightning, black smoke came out, and thousands of lead bullets flew out of the shadowless cannon.
What makes Zhang Wulang sad is that his sword only swept away half of the rockets, and half of them still flew over the sword.
Over and over again, several rockets hit the baffle behind his original seat and landed with a tinkling sound.
Although this baffle is made of wood, it is covered with a layer of iron.
Even so, several rockets flew over the baffle and shot towards Zhang Chu who was operating.
Assistant Zhang Liulang shouted, the sword in his hand flew, and the rockets were shot down by him amid the clang.
Seeing the rocket falling on the car, he hurriedly picked it up and threw it outside before finally heaving a sigh of relief.
The barbarians on the mountain were happily firing rockets and throwing rocks, unaware that the danger had come.
"Ah, ah yo, ah yo. Poisonous bee, poisonous bee." They shouted one after another.
The barbarian who was throwing the rolling stone had just dropped the rolling stone when he held his hands and cried out in pain.
The barbarians who were launching rockets either dropped their bows and arrows or fled towards the mountains.
The three centurions were wearing iron armor and were not affected.
He was shocked when he heard it was a poisonous bee.
At this critical moment, the poisonous bee appeared.
He said to a centurion beside him: "Look where there are poisonous bees, and if you see them, pick off the honeycombs."
This was not an easy job, but he did not dare to disobey the three centurions' orders.
"Wear more clothes, cover your face and hands, look for hornets' nests, and take them off when you see them." He said to a tenth lady.
Although the captain was not attacked by the poisonous bees, his two men were attacked and now they cannot use weapons.
He bowed his hands to the centurion, and said with some embarrassment: "Centurion, there are a few people here."
The centurion thought for a moment, then randomly found ten more people and asked them to follow the centurion to find the hornet's nest.
After a cup of tea, the captain of ten led the barbarians back.
He shook his head and bowed his hands to the centurion: "I looked around and found no poisonous bees."
The three centurions couldn't help but be surprised when they heard that there were no poisonous bees here.
"Where did these poisonous bees fly from? Yes, I didn't hear the sound of poisonous bees." The three centurions looked around and said to themselves.
The centurion thought for a while, frowned and asked: "I didn't hear the sound of poisonous bees. Could it be that it's not poisonous bees? What else is it?"
He observed carefully and found that the warriors who shot behind the tree were not affected.
"The poisonous bees shouted by the warriors were not seen, and the warriors hiding behind the trees were not injured." The centurion said to the three centurions.
The three centurions nodded, looked at the warriors hiding behind the trees, and nodded: "If there are poisonous bees, the warriors of the Khanate hiding behind the trees will not be able to escape either."
"Obviously, this is not a poisonous bee. Could it be the legendary Southern Barbarian Shadowless Cannon?" The centurion frowned and asked the three centurions.
"It looks like it must be." The three centurion shouted loudly: "This is not a poisonous bee, it is the Nanman's shadowless cannon, hiding behind the tree, hiding behind the tree."
Not long after he finished speaking, the carriage behind the table rumbled and another burst of black smoke came out.
The three centurion hurriedly hid behind the tree, hearing the rustling of leaves and the miserable cries of some warriors who had not had time to hide.
The three-centurion observed the legendary Shadowless Cannon carefully and said without blinking: "Seeing the legendary Shadowless Cannon fired with my own eyes, I should be happy. But I can't be happy at all."
"What a pity, there is a hole in that baffle, and the muzzle of the Shadowless Cannon can be clearly seen." The centurion hid behind the tree, observing the Shadowless Cannon from the fork of the tree, and couldn't help but shake his head.
The three-centurion still stared at the Shadowless Cannon and sighed: "What's the use of seeing the bare muzzle? The key is the entire structure of the Shadowless Cannon."
"If we see the structure of this shadowless cannon, we must have someone draw it and send the drawing away." The centurion felt the same way and sighed.
The three centurion nodded and continued: "If it doesn't work, we can still report it to General Ha. After all, there are still three thousand people here. With so many people, if you don't believe it, no one will send this painting out."
Thinking of this, he was so angry that he opened his eyes wide and watched the Shadowless Cannon carefully.
However, no matter how hard he tried, that damn baffle blocked the Shadowless Cannon.
"I can't wait to pull out my big knife and chop off the baffle, so that I can clearly see the structure of the shadowless cannon." The centurion beat the tree hard, and the tree made a roar. Stop shaking.
The three centurions could only shake their heads and sighed deeply: "It's okay to think about it, but it's very unrealistic."
"Hurry and hide behind the trees. If you don't want to be shot, hide behind the trees." The three centurions shouted loudly.
After hearing the order, the barbarians hid behind the trees.
Sure enough, the shadowless cannon at the bottom of the mountain fired another shot, making the leaves rustle, and those with sharp eyes could even see the holes in the leaves.
When the barbarians heard the rustling sound and saw holes in the leaves, they broke out in a cold sweat.
They were secretly lucky that although the legendary Shadowless Cannon was powerful, it still couldn't pass through the trees and was blocked by the trees.
Zhang Chu couldn't help but shook his head when he saw the barbarians hiding behind the trees.
This group of barbarians are not stupid, they know how to hide behind the trees, but in this way, the power of his shadowless cannon is greatly reduced.
"Battle leader, the barbarians are hiding behind the trees, what should we do now?" Zhang Chu asked Li Hantong.
Li Hantong was also observing the movements of the Hu people and saw that the power of the Hu people's rockets and rolling stones had decreased a lot.
He couldn't help being overjoyed and said: "Your shadowless cannon is not going to be fired, but the attack speed is reduced by half. Be careful not to let go of the barbarians behind the trees."
"This one is a bit difficult, and that one is difficult to aim at." Zhang Chu squinted his eyes and looked carefully, shook his head and said.
Li Hantong looked at the barbarians on the mountain, and then at Zhang Chu's shadowless cannon.
He said: "Now the purpose of the Shadowless Cannon is not to kill the Hu people, but to give the Hu people a deterrent so that they dare not come in and attack boldly."
"Isn't this a waste of lead bullets?" Zhang Chu didn't understand what Li Hantong meant.
Li Handong shook his head and answered affirmatively: "It's not a waste. The first is to intimidate, and the second is to kill and injure the barbarians as much as possible."
Zhang Chu nodded, asked his assistant to fill up the lead bullets and gunpowder, then aimed at the barbarian hiding behind the trees on the left and fired another shot.
Sure enough, not long after, the screams of the barbarians came from behind the tree, but the screams were much less than before.
He shook his head and ordered his assistant to add lead bullets and gunpowder, aiming at the barbarian hiding behind the trees on the right.
"Zi Jian, you have to speed up. Now the power of the Hu people's rolling stones and rockets has been reduced a lot." Li Hantong shouted from the tin trumpet.
"Follow your orders." Wang Gen shouted to his men: "The table formations advance alternately, rush up and kill the barbarians."
The three Eight Immortals tables running in front looked at each other, shouted, and quickly rushed up the mountain.
The barbarian three centurions shouted desperately. "Throw rolling stones at me, throw more rolling stones, crush them to death, crush them to death."
After saying that, he picked up a rolling stone beside him and threw it towards the mountain road.
Many barbarians picked up the rolling stones around them and threw them down the mountain.
"Boom, boom, boom," rolling stones kept rolling down the mountain road, with dust rolling behind them.
Bang bang, bang bang, rolling stones kept hitting the Eight Immortals table, causing the soldiers who were resisting the table to sway.
"Zi Lie, your chariot battalion can be put to use." Li Hantong said to Wang Meng, the leader of the second formation.
"As ordered," Wang Meng replied loudly, and then shouted to his men: "Prize men, charge forward."
He was already impatient with waiting, and he felt bad when he saw that the majestic chariot camp yesterday was suppressed and beaten by the barbarians on the mountain.
"Boom, boom, boom." The tornado cannon on the chariot began to spray out angry fire. Lightning flashes continued in front of the barbarian position, and bursts of black smoke rose up.
The barbarians dodge and fire rockets, but more often than not they throw rolling stones.
There were bursts of dust rising from the mountain road, and the trees on both sides continued to emit lightning, thunder and bursts of black smoke, which was full of a deep smell of war.
Click, click, a sound suddenly came from the first Eight Immortals table rushing in the front, and the soldiers couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
Fortunately, the soldiers from the second Eight Immortals Table rushed in front of them.
Bang bang, the soldiers on the second Eight Immortals Table felt a heavy blow, and then saw a stone suddenly appear in the middle of the Eight Immortals Table.
"Fire Chang, it's not good, there are too many rolling stones, the Eight Immortals Table will be smashed, what should I do?" shouted the soldiers of the second Eight Immortals Table who rushed in front.
