It was already two days later when Gu Xingdong led the army to move to the next strategic hub. But at this time, there were also 80,000 elites, more than 6,000 artillery pieces, and more than 5 million artillery shells gathered!
Five million shells, what is the concept? It can be built into a city wall!
At the northern front, Gu Xingdong met Huo Shisong, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Tang Dynasty.
Huo Shisong is a general who looks very serious, even a bit cold. But he has obviously received information about the war situation from Nangong Zhi's side.
When he saw the mountain of artillery shells, and when he saw that Gu Xingdong had begun to direct his men to open the artillery array, the corner of Huo Shisong's mouth twitched a little.
However, he did not stop him. He also wanted to see what Nangong Zhi said about the indiscriminate bombardment. Being more than thirty kilometers apart, the opponent can be destroyed.
Nowadays, due to the large-scale use of artillery on both sides, the distance between camps is mostly about 30 kilometers.
The artillery range of Qixia Kingdom is generally 40 kilometers - the outside world still doesn't know that Qixia Kingdom has begun to equip thunder cannons with a range of up to a crazy 80 kilometers.
Gu Xingdong and Huo Shisong met. After a brief exchange, they prepared to order an attack.
"Wait!" An angry voice floated over, and then he saw a god-incarnation wearing Xuanzhen sect clothes flying over.
Gu Xingdong stood up straight, and when the other party approached, he immediately smiled and said, "Senior, what do you call me? Junior Gu Xingdong, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Army of the Kingdom of Qixia."
"I know you! I, Hongyazi, am one of the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall!" Hongyazi said in a somewhat exasperated tone, "Let me ask you, why can't you fight well? Is it fun to play like this!"
To build a stronghold costs millions of high-grade spiritual stones. If we were to fight the entire battle, wouldn't it cost hundreds of millions of high-grade spiritual stones? There are so many high-grade spiritual stones that cannot be found in the entire Fertile Continent!
What a child¡¯s play! "
Why is Hongyazi angry? Because in the end all the consumption has to be paid for by the Xuanzhen Sect! The Xuanzhen Cult doesn't want to charge forward by itself and wants others to be cannon fodder, which is fine - but it's obviously impossible to want the horse to run fast and eat less. Therefore, Xuanzhen Sect must compensate 120% of the war consumption.
But the Qixia Kingdom¡¯s legions are doing better - before the main army arrives, only part of the legion has arrived. An attack the day before yesterday destroyed more than four million high-grade spiritual stones!
"If the Qixia Kingdom army arrives and attacks like crazy, your Qixia Kingdom army can bring down the entire Xuanzhen Sect!
But when Gu Xingdong heard this, he immediately became serious, "Senior, I have some objections to what you said. I dare to ask senior a few questions.
First, is continuing the confrontation here the correct way to fight? What should I do if my fighter jet is delayed?
Second, we have excellent artillery and can win without sacrificing soldiers. Is there anything wrong with that?
Third, apart from this method, I wonder if the seniors have any clever ideas? "
Hong Yazi was stunned.
When Gu Xingdong saw him, he didn¡¯t express anything on the surface, but he felt a slight sense of superiority in his heart: It doesn¡¯t matter that you are in the stage of becoming a god, you don¡¯t understand the situation on the battlefield at all!
No matter how powerful the God Transformation stage is, it cannot replace the general's talents on the battlefield.
Hong Yazi held it in for a long time and finally said: "But it is too wasteful for you to attack like this. So many shells can be of greater use."
"No! This is how these artillery shells should be used! Our attack must be like a fist, like a hammer, knocking open the opponent's shell and destroying the opponent's defenses.
Such defense capabilities cannot be built overnight, but we can destroy them overnight.
Destroying a stronghold can destroy the opponent's army of hundreds of thousands.
Destroying two strongholds can destroy the opponent's army of more than 200,000 and affect more than 500,000 troops.
Destroying three strongholds will cause the opponent's defense line to collapse, morale to collapse, and completely disrupt the opponent's strategy.
Then we launch a general attack before the opponent can react. It can break through the opponent's defense system in one fell swoop. Even kill millions of enemies. If you can bite the enemy, you may be able to kill the opponent's second line of defense in one go, or even break through the opponent's second line of defense by driving them away.
In war, the most important thing is time! The most economical thing is to win in a short time!
So we must squeeze each other¡¯s time at all costs! You want to prevent the opponent from reacting, and make the opponent dizzy when you hit him.
?Rather than playing a war of attrition with the other party. In that case, you will only end up killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to yourself! "
Hong Yazi was said to be somewhat irrefutable. He thought for a long time and couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure you can tear apart the defense of the imperial capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty? The current defense of the imperial capital cannot even be broken through in the transformation stage. We have attacked several times here, but all failed. Even heavy losses.
We also tried to set up a great formation that sealed the sky and locked the earth, but the other party was already prepared. With the two-pronged attack of ballistae and artillery, it was impossible to arrange the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Sealing Formation.
We also tried to use artillery and other concentrated attacks, but with little success. Minor losses can be easily repaired by the other party. "
Confidence flashed in Gu Xingdong's eyes: "I went over to take a look at the opponent's defense. The defense is strong, but the defense is rigid. It is already evening, and I will be able to give senior an answer tomorrow morning!"
Hong Yazi turned his head and looked at the pile of shells, frowned, and finally nodded slowly. But then he asked: "You just leave the cannonballs like this, aren't you afraid of exploding?"
"Isn't there a senior here?" Gu Xingdong flattered him first, and then said: "We have special small formations for protection. These formations are not big, but they form protective layers.
Cannonballs and cannonballs are built together, and there is a larger formation protection outside. It's basically foolproof.
We have tested that even if it is directly hit by a shell, it will not explode. This is also a technology we re-developed after the previous explosion on the warship. Not big, but effective. "
Hong Yazi nodded. "Well, I want to see your answer tomorrow morning!"
Gu Xingdong smiled, turned around and ordered to the artillery: "Aim at the front left of the target. Concentrate your fire and attack and smash that corner!"
After giving the order, Gu Xingdong turned to Hong Yazi and said: "Senior, look at the left front of the imperial capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty, close to the hills, and the ground is solid and rocky. The rest of the place is mostly rivers.
After our analysis, we believe that rivers, silt, etc. can absorb the aftermath of the explosion. But the rock cannot, instead it will be shattered bit by bit by the aftermath of the explosion.
A powerful formation must be combined with the earth. If we can shatter the foundation, the opponent's defense, etc., they will naturally collapse. "
It sounded reasonable, Hong Yazi nodded again. But then he asked: "How many shells will be consumed?"
Gu Xingdong turned his head and looked at the pile of shells, and said slowly: "These should be enough."
Hong Yazi:
If you continue to fight like this, Xuanzhen Sect will go bankrupt in half a year!
