[From the Battle of Niuzhu: 3 days]

The fog in front of Li Hongyun dispersed, and a line of system prompts appeared in front of Li Hongyun.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Niuzhuji! I, Hu Hansan...oh no, I, Li Hongyun, are back!"

After three days of hard struggle, he finally returned to the battlefield of the Battle of Niuzhu.

Different from science-oriented players like Chu Ge or Zhao Haiping, he basically develops two lines of culture and military in a balanced way.

On the side of Wang Wenchuan's reform, Li Hongyun only made some improvements to the contents of Wang Wenchuan's reform, and cleverly avoided the severe drought, allowing the new law to continue.

In this way, although the income obtained and the results of the reform were not as good as those of Chu Ge, at least they persisted and accumulated a large amount of military supplies for the Qi Dynasty.

On the line of Yu Jiaxuan's military training, Li Hongyun did not spend a lot of time on suppressing bandits. Instead, he selectively eliminated several groups of powerful bandits headed by tea bandits, and used the military supplies from Wang Wenchuan's reform to

The Flying Tiger Army was formed.

In this process, he can also play a side-by-side fight, using the two characters Yu Jiaxuan and Wang Wenchuan to cooperate with each other.

For example, using Wang Wenchuan's status as prime minister, he sent Yu Jiaxuan to evaluate the implementation of the new law and improve the performance of these places; then using Wang Wenchuan's status as prime minister, he could tilt resources to Yu Jiaxuan's Flying Tiger Army as much as possible and give him the necessary support.

; When playing as Yu Jiaxuan, you can also use Wang Wenchuan to gather all the surrounding resources as much as possible to prepare the Flying Tiger Army.

Three different ways of playing, the final results in the quarrying battle are also different.

Chu Ge mainly attacked Wang Wenchuan's line. As a result, he accumulated a large amount of military resources for the Qi Dynasty, from the equipment of the Flying Tiger Army to the equipment of other Qi armies, including warships, armors, weapons, crossbows, firearms, etc., in

Military supplies are completely full;

Zhao Haiping mainly attacked the Yu Jiaxuan line. As a result, through troop training and bandit suppression, he created a Flying Tiger Army with very strong actual combat capabilities. Although the equipment was slightly lacking, its strong fighting will and tacit cooperation in tactics allowed it to

It made it possible for this army to face off against the Jin Army;

Li Hongyun developed the two lines in a balanced manner. Although neither side was particularly outstanding, through mutual cooperation, a balance was achieved in the actual combat strength and armament level of the Flying Tiger Army.

The last step in preparing for the establishment of the Flying Tiger Army is to handle it properly when the Flying Tiger Army is impeached and the envoy comes with a gold medal to ask for an inspection.

Zhao Haiping's method was actually what Yu Jiaxuan did in history. He directly took over the gold medal, but pretended to be confused and delayed. The envoy went to court in anger, but it took at least a month.

Yu Jiaxuan just used this month to build the Flying Tiger Army, and then compiled the relevant information into a book and reported it to the emperor.

There is a premise here, which is that in the process of preparing for the establishment of the Flying Tiger Army, although some special means can be used to misappropriate funds from other sources, political opponents cannot be left with any obvious clues.

In this way, as long as the account books are clear and the Flying Tiger Army is in good order after its completion, the emperor will naturally not pursue these details.

Li Hongyun's solution was to use Wang Wenchuan's identity to directly provide the Flying Tiger Army with all the supplies it needed to suppress the impeachment of political opponents.

The premise of this operation is that at least certain results must be achieved during Wang Wenchuan's reform process, and Wang Wenchuan's position is stable. Otherwise, it is very likely that Wang Wenchuan will be dismissed from the position due to forceful protection of the Flying Tiger Army, and the reform will fail.

In short, after a lot of troubles, Li Hongyun finally returned to Niuzhuji.

And here, he will once again fight to the death with those golden soldiers who had previously beaten him to the point of panic.

At this time, he was riding a tall horse and wearing armor, and behind him was the Flying Tiger Army of 5,000 people, of which 2,000 were elite cavalry and the other 3,000 were elite infantry.

Although the number of the Flying Tiger Army is not large, the number of soldiers is not large. Thanks to Yu Jiaxuan's careful preparation, the combat power of this Flying Tiger Army has surpassed the vast majority of the Qi Dynasty's army.

Moreover, these five thousand flying tiger troops are not all the military power that the player can control.

There are many remnants of the Qi Dynasty near Niuzhuji, totaling nearly 20,000 people. Not all of these 20,000 people are infantry and cavalry, there is also a powerful navy with a hundred warships.

If these powers can be used properly, it is not impossible to win this battle.

"These cavalry and infantry are respectively under the command of two of you.

"The golden soldiers landed and immediately launched an attack, making it impossible for them to come back!

"As for me, I will personally take charge of the navy!"

Li Hongyun called two lieutenants from the Flying Tiger Army and asked them to lead the cavalry and infantry respectively to attack when the Jin soldiers had just landed and were not yet stable.

And he himself boarded the largest warship among them, preparing to fight to the death with the Jin army on the water.

There are a lot of one hundred ships, and they certainly cannot be released all at once. After Li Hongyun thought about it, he divided the one hundred ships into five teams, one of which patrolled the river to block it, two teams provided cover upstream and downstream, and

The two teams hid behind the mountains of Niuzhuji, waiting for the fierce battle between the two sides to suddenly break out and catch them off guard.

In the sky, winds and clouds were flying, and the sun was rising high.

After Li Hongyun completed the formation of his troops, the entire historical slice of time moved forward rapidly, and came to the point when the Jin soldiers began to cross the river.

A huge boulder flew from the air with a loud "bang" and hit the river bank on the side of the Qi army. Several Qi soldiers were hit with broken bones and tendons because they were unable to dodge.

At this time, Li Hongyun was no longer a soldier who could only worry about things on the shore, but had become a general on the warship.

Jin Bing's warships have begun to cross the river.

According to historical records, at this time, the Jin soldiers were too proud to underestimate the enemy and did not think they would encounter resistance from the Qi army here, so they used flat-bottomed boats for transportation. The water in the pool was not deep and relatively unstable.

But in this historical slice, the ships the Jin soldiers were riding on were obviously warships. They seemed to have tall hulls and were extremely difficult to deal with.

Therefore, when Li Hongyun first appeared in the Battle of Niuzhu, he had no power to fight back and was beaten to a pulp by the Jin soldiers.

But this time, the situation is completely different.

Li Hongyun looked at the warship he was riding on. The Qi troops on the ship were busy nervously, getting into their positions.

A large number of soldiers stepped on the waterwheel at the bottom of the ship, and the warship rushed towards the Jin Bing's warship at an extremely fast speed!

This is Qi Dynasty’s biggest weapon on the sea, the loach boat.

The so-called loach is a special kind of whale. Historical records record: "It is more than ten feet long, with a skin as black as a cow. It raises a drum and a mane. It sprays water into the air, turning it into smoke." The loach boat is exactly like this shape.

Named after the species of whale.

Such a warship is inherently a heavyweight and super large warship. A large loach ship requires 20,000 guan, and if it is a super large loach ship that is thirty feet long and can accommodate seven or eight hundred people, then

It will cost more than 60,000 coins.

This time, among the nearly one hundred warships of the Qi army, there were dozens of loach boats.

And the one Li Hongyun was riding was the largest one among them.

The quantity and quality of the navy's ships in this historical slice are also directly related to the results of Wang Wenchuan's reform.

Li Hongyun only made some optimizations during Wang Wenchuan's reform to make up for key points such as drought when he was dismissed. Therefore, although the navy's lineup is still good, it is actually not perfect.

If it were the dungeon where Chu Ge was, I'm afraid countless giant loach ships could directly swamp the golden soldiers.

But even so, Li Hongyun was already very satisfied with the troops he had.

Compared with ordinary ships, the loach ship is much faster. This is because its power is not simply wind or oars, but relies on the water wheel at the bottom.

These waterwheels were moved by soldiers stepping on the bottom of the ship. There were twenty-four waterwheels in the big ship and twelve waterwheels in the small ship. When the soldiers stepped on the waterwheels with all their strength, the warships moved with lightning speed, far faster than ordinary warships.

The boat is much faster.

Not only that, as a specialized warship, the sea loach ship is not only flexible, but also has a deep draft and is stable. The warship also has facilities such as ramming horns, crossbow towers, and forts. Compared with the warships of the Jin soldiers, it has huge advantages.

Soon, the first group of warships deployed on the river had already met the Jin Bing's ship.

"Array up! Fire!"

Li Hongyun gave an order, and the cannons on the warships fired in unison. Heavy fog immediately filled the river, and visibility became extremely low.

The artillery of the Qi Dynasty is obviously not the same thing as the artillery of the middle and late Dasheng Dynasty.

At this time, the thunderbolt cannons of the Qi Dynasty could not actually kill the enemy at long distances. The range was only about a hundred meters, and they mainly used gunpowder to shoot gravel mixed with lime. Their lethality was far inferior to the solid iron projectiles of later generations.

But at this time, the thunderbolt cannon also played a very important role, which was to block the line of sight.

When the thunderbolt cannon was fired, there was not only the smoke produced by the explosion of gunpowder, but also lime and other substances were specially added to it, and the river was instantly filled with smoke.

Taking advantage of the smoke, the fleet pounced towards Jin Bing's warship!

At this time, the Jin soldiers' fleet had just begun to cross the river. The collision angle of the loach boat slammed into several Jin soldiers' warships at the front, causing huge holes and causing the river water to pour in instantly.

Those small loach boats were constantly shuttling and intercepting the Jin soldiers' fleet, making the entire formation of the Jin soldiers and naval forces extremely chaotic.

"Whoosh!"

Huge boulders cut through the sky and hit the Jinbing warship in the distance.

What threw the boulders this time was not the trebuchet of the Jin soldiers on the other side, but the trebuchet on the loach boat!

Compared with the Jin soldiers who could only use bows and arrows to counterattack, the Qi army's warships obviously had more offensive methods.

"Ignore these Qi troops and get ashore!" A Jinbing general shouted loudly on a warship in the distance.

Obviously, these Jin soldiers also knew that the strength of Qi Dynasty's navy was far superior to theirs, so it was obviously an extremely unwise behavior to fight with Qi Dynasty's navy on the river.

Moreover, at this time, the gold master Wanyan Hailing had also issued a death order, asking them to cross the river as soon as possible, so the idea of ​​these Jin soldiers and generals was to send the Jin soldiers to the other side as soon as possible, no matter how many warships were damaged.

.

As long as these Jin soldiers can successfully cross the river and quickly wipe out the Qi Dynasty's army in the land battle, then the water blockade of the Qi Dynasty's navy will be broken sooner or later.

Li Hongyun was unhurried. At this time, he seemed to be playing a national war in some massively multiplayer role-playing game.

He quickly came to the side of the ship, holding a special crossbow in his hand.

This is the great weapon of the Qi Dynasty, the Divine Arm Bow!

In the Qi Dynasty, the Qi army, which was mainly infantry, reached an unprecedented height in the research and development of crossbows, especially the divine arm bow, which was a big killer. Because it was kept secret so well, it was lost. So much so that it was later lost.
