Marry the villain and the whole court kneels down and calls her the queen
Chapter 244: Divine Weapon
In this era, artillery has become a dimensionality reduction attack.
At Jiang Jiu's command, the artilleryman lit the cannon, and the two people behind him held the barrel. With a "bang", a deafening shell flew out.
Suddenly, Wu Yue understood why the gunners covered their ears. The sound was enough to break their hearts.
Looking at the power of this thing again, Wu Yue was stunned.
Not only did the siege vehicle get blown to pieces, but the people around it also disappeared. Where the shells landed, there was a mess of blood and flesh.
Wu Yue and his men were stunned, and so were the Beidi people.
Jiang Jiu didn't wait for them to react and fired six shells one after another.
The six shells accurately hit the six siege vehicles, killing all the surrounding soldiers. This not only shocked the Beidi people, but also Wu Yue.
They raised their arms and shouted: "Blow them up, blow them up."
At this point, let alone 300,000 troops, even if another 300,000 came, they would not be enough to withstand the artillery fire.
Jiang Jiu asked them to adjust the altitude and attack the shield soldiers and archers in the front row of Beidi.
"Bang bang bang" several more shots were fired.
The Northern Di army was beaten so hard that they were dizzy.
Wu Yue happily walked down from the city wall, took the opportunity to open the city gate, and led his troops to rush forward.
"Charge and kill."
Wu Yue only brought Jiang Jiu's 3,000 elite soldiers and his own team's 7,000 elite soldiers, a total of 10,000 people, and directly dispersed the 300,000 soldiers of Beidi.
Once Wu Yue opened the city gate, the cannons could not be used for fear of hurting his own people.
Jiang Jiu was always paying attention to the situation. As soon as the Northern Di army reacted, she quickly sounded the gong to call back the troops.
When the Northern Di army saw that their 300,000 soldiers had suffered heavy casualties, they quickly sounded the gong to withdraw their troops.
When Wu Yue led his men to clean up the battlefield, they discovered that their 10,000 soldiers had captured and killed nearly 100,000 Northern Di soldiers.
It can be said to be the most classic battle in which the few defeated the many.
After the initial victory, Wu Yue was deeply impressed by Jiang Jiu's artillery.
"Princess, if His Majesty could give us some of these cannons, even with fewer men, we would be able to defend Yuguan Pass at all costs."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiu chuckled and said, "This time, I'll give you five cannons and ten carts of cannon barrels. You can pick out a thousand people and learn how to use these cannons from us artillerymen."
"Also, when you give me the shells, be sure to prevent fires. Otherwise, it won't be the enemy that gets blown up, but you."
When Wu Yue heard this, her eyes lit up and she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Jiu.
"I thank Princess Ronghua, the Duke of Zhenguo, and Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, and may the Princess live a thousand years."
Jiang Jiu smiled speechlessly.
After this battle, the Beidi people did not dare to come for several days.
Reinforcements, food supplies, and medicinal herbs arrived one after another.
The entire Ningguan City was instantly revitalized.
Standing on the top of the city wall, Jiang Jiu took a look at the entire city and felt very relieved.
I remember when they first arrived, the entire Yuguan City seemed to be in ruins. The people had all left and all the shops on the street were closed.
The streets were quiet, not even a mouse was around.
There was wailing in the camp, morale was low, and the wounded soldiers thought they were going to die, as there was no food or herbs to eat.
The uninjured soldiers were collecting the remains of the dead. The sounds of wailing and crying filled the camp, and everyone was in despair.
But after Jiang Jiu's battle, the morale of the entire army was restored.
Everyone was competing to talk about the magical weapons that Jiang Jiu brought.
When Wu Yueyi said that he wanted to form an artillery battalion and specifically learn how to fire artillery, everyone signed up.
Wu Yue knew that such things should be dealt with sooner rather than later. Attacking the Northern Di was the best learning opportunity. She didn't know when the Northern Di would attack next time.
It took him only three days to form an artillery battalion of one thousand men.
Unexpectedly, after the main force arrived, Jiang Jiu actually brought three more cannons.
Wu Yue had no choice but to temporarily add another thousand people.
So, with five cannons guarding the city gate, Jiang Jiu asked his men to relax and take a rest. This time, they would not wait for the Northern Di people, and she was going to start a counterattack.
But the Northern Di people refused to give up. They were numerous and knew that even if they used human wave tactics, they could still break through the gate of Yuguan.
On the fifth night, the soldiers defending the city discovered that the Northern Di people had launched a surprise attack on Yuguan.
Quickly beat the drum to notify Wu Yue, Jiang Jiu and others.
When Jiang Jiu rushed to the city wall, the Northern Di people had already begun to attack the city.
How could Jiang Jiu let them go? He launched another round of artillery attack.
The siege vehicle was smashed to pieces and the people were beaten to a bloody pulp.
The Northern Di army was horrified to find that Daning's artillery had increased from two to five.
Originally they planned to secretly climb the city wall and destroy the cannon.
But there was no chance at all.
Jiang Jiu actually didn't sleep well either. The Northern Di army had already arrived at the door. He would not be willing to give up unless he caught the turtle in the jar.
So Wu Yue ordered people to open the city gate.
The 10,000 soldiers brought by Jiang Jiu rushed out directly, and the torches lit up the outside of the city as bright as day. This battle was fought with great enthusiasm.
Ten thousand soldiers fought and retreated, leading the Northern Di army to the city gate.
When they led the troops to the city gate, Jiang Jiu ordered his men to open fire, aiming at the rear of the Northern Di army.
The Northern Di army was in a miserable state this time. The soldiers in front were killed by the soldiers of Daning, and the soldiers in the back were blown to pieces by artillery.
The entire battle lasted from dusk to dawn.
At dawn, Wu Yue rushed out with 30,000 reinforcements and directly defeated all the remaining Beidi troops. Even the Beidi Marshal was beheaded.
Wu Yue carried the head of the Beidi Marshal on his spear and charged into the battle, rushing directly to the Beidi army's camp.
They burned their food supplies and captured all the garrison troops in the camp.
This was not the end yet, and the attack directly reached the gate of the border town of Beidi.
The Northern Di army stopped fighting and simply raised the white flag in surrender.
The Northern Di army suffered heavy losses this time, with 300,000 soldiers killed here. Their country was in mourning. They had not fought at all, but if they did not surrender, they would probably be destroyed.
With the support of artillery brought by Jiang Jiu, this battle took less than ten days to defeat the Northern Di army.
The Northern Di army decisively sent envoys to negotiate peace with Daning.
When it came to peace talks, Jiang Jiu originally disagreed, but Wu Yue said that their soldiers needed to recuperate, and even if they were going to fight, they needed to rest for a few days.
Jiang Jiu then spent a month arguing with the envoys from Beidi.
On this day, the envoy from Beidi had just entered the tent when he saw Jiang Jiu running out of the tent in disheveled clothes and crying.
"Wu Yue, if you don't send troops to Beidi, this princess will file a complaint against you to His Majesty. Have you accepted bribes from the Beidi envoys and decided not to attack Beidi and avenge the soldiers?"
Taohua, who was with Jiang Jiu, was so angry that she stomped her feet and cursed at Wu Yue.
"We, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, support your Northern Frontier soldiers, and this is how you treat our princess. Our princess is the future queen, and a mere Northern Di envoy actually has feelings for her."
Lu An didn't even say a word and directly chopped off the head of the Northern Di envoy.
