Become a feudal king from today

These skirmishers moved forward in groups of three, forming a triangle. read

Nine people form a large triangle.

However, they walked very widely, with one person often more than five meters apart from another.

Even with three hundred people, it looked like the entire battlefield was full of soldiers.

The northern wall of the plain.

Han Qi and Shi Cun Dahe immediately noticed something strange.

They looked at the three hundred sparse soldiers, all confused.

"What do they want to do?" Han Qi asked.

Shimura Dahe shook his head, he had never seen such a style of play.

These soldiers did not carry ladders and did not gather together. They seemed to pose no threat to the city wall.

Just thinking about this made him very confused.

If it really didn't work, why did the Yanzhou general do it again?

"Pull the artillery over." At this moment, Han Qi said.

Shimura Dahe shook his head, "You are using artillery to fight mosquitoes. Ten or twenty rounds of artillery shells may not be able to hit a single soldier. It is better to save them when defending the city."

He knew very well that the power of artillery lay in bombarding soldiers in tight formations, rather than attacking these scattered soldiers, otherwise it would only be a waste of shells.

"Then try grape bullets." The artillery general of Qi couldn't help but said.

He had been looking at the Yanzhou soldiers who were approaching the city wall. Soon these soldiers were about to enter within 200 meters of the city wall.

"It's even worse. The grape bombs have been exposed now. When King Yan's army actually attacks the city, they will be on guard." Shi Cun Dahe angrily yelled.

Han Qi also glared at the general.

His idea was the same as Shimura Taiga's, that the grapeshot should be saved until the critical moment.

"It's a pity that I have blocked the city gates on all sides. Otherwise, I only need to send out a team of cavalry to kill all these three hundred people."

"By the way, let's see what they want to do first." Han Qi said.

After that, he hid behind a wall and stared at the soldiers of King Yan who kept approaching the city wall with only one eye exposed.

I saw these soldiers advancing slowly, stopping one hundred and fifty meters away from Pingyuan City, and then aiming at the Qi soldiers on the city wall.

"Bang bang bang..." Suddenly a crisp sound of gunfire rang out, and white smoke and flashes appeared from the muzzles of these soldiers.

Then he heard several screams coming from the wall.

"It's true." Han Xi and Shi Cun Dahe's pupils shrank at the same time.

The soldiers they almost sent out to test Yanzhou didn't lie last time.

"Let everyone in the city lie down." Han Qi ordered.

After receiving his order, Qi soldiers hid under the walls.

For a time, not a single Qi soldier could be seen in the entire city.

Outside the city, the soldiers of the royal palace were at peace.

There was no human figure on the city wall. They moved from the front wall to the two sides of the city wall, keeping their eyes on the city wall. Once they found a Qi soldier showing up, they would shoot.

In the next few days, the skirmishers continued to harass Pingyuan City in this way. While they were attacking Pingyuan City, the foundations were poured and pillars stood up from the ground.

Both Han Qi and Shi Cun Dahe noticed these pillars.

Although they had an ominous premonition, they didn't know what these things were used for.

They dare not go out of the city and take the initiative to attack and destroy these things.

In the end, he could only curse the cunning Yanzhou Army angrily.

…

Jinling.

During the confrontation in Pingyuan City, Qi State's activities became more intensive, and the first batch of envoys sent by Han Zheng arrived here first.

"Is this a flintlock gun? It's truly a divine weapon!"

In the palace, after witnessing the Qi envoy demonstrating the flintlock rifle, Xie Duan let out a burst of exclamation.

Taking it from Qi Guo, he fondly stroked the flintlock gun and asked, "What is Han Shangshu's intention?"

Hearing this, the envoy from Qi State was dissatisfied and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, this time your Majesty's ministers have come here to specifically recognize the eldest prince as Emperor Dasong, and please stop calling Your Majesty Shangshu."

Xie Duan was startled for a moment, rolled his eyes, and suddenly laughed, "Yes, yes, it was my negligence."

After the Jinling Rebellion, he did not recognize the Dou family's Nanliang, nor the Qi State, nor the Wu State.

The other three countries did not recognize the status of the eldest prince.

Since Han Zheng now recognizes the eldest prince as Emperor Dasong, then it is not a bad idea for him to give Han Zheng some face and call him Your Majesty.

After all, the Dasong controlled by his Xie family is no longer the same Dasong it used to be.

The envoy from Qi calmed down a little, and then said: "Master Xie, do you want a flintlock gun, or even the forging skills of a flintlock gun?"

"Of course I do, who doesn't like my baby?" Xie Duan blurted out, and then he said: "It's just that your Majesty suddenly sent such a generous gift. I'm afraid that my Xie family has some needs, right?"

"It's not a matter of asking, it's just mutual cooperation." The envoy from Qi said.

Among the current powerful families, the Xie family is the smallest, and Qi State does not take them seriously.

If it weren't for the purpose of dealing with King Yan, the first person Qi State wanted to annex was the Xie family.

Thinking of this, he felt contempt for Xie Duan in his heart, but he did not show it externally. After all, he had his own mission in coming to Jinling this time.

So he said: "Your Majesty is willing to use the flintlock gun as a link to let the powerful clans resolve their differences and form a rope to deal with King Yan. After all, our powerful clans are just fighting among themselves, and King Yan is the enemy of life and death."

Hearing this, Xie Duan shook his hand holding the flintlock gun.

Nod slowly.
