Chapter 222 Tonight, there is a meteor shower!

Guicheng at the foot of Dinghu Mountain is all dark under the night. Occasionally, sentries wearing torches pass through the camps of both sides more than ten miles apart to show their sphere of influence.

The place where the two armies confronted each other in the Ming and Qing dynasties was located more than ten miles east of Gaoyao, Zhaoqing Shou County, and it was located in a township called Guicheng Capital.

Zhu Hechan's 15,600 Ming troops were in the west, leaning against a small riverside hill called Lingshan on the bank of the West River.

The 35,000 Qing army led by Tuhai set up a camp in an open area more than ten miles east of the Ming army camp. Tonight, the lights were bright, and lanterns and bonfires covered the Xijiang River and Dinghu Mountains. It was like the star sea on the ground. This momentum was really enough, and it was quite arrogant, as if it did not take Zhu and Zhu Zhu seriously at all.

This is not possible!

Zhu and the emperor heard the cheers from the Qing army on Dinghu Mountain this morning. Wu Sangui was rebelling. They were still so arrogant, it was so inappropriate!

This kind of arrogance must be cured, and it will be cured without curing it?

Zhu Heying stood up in a viewing building in his camp. After looking at the brightly lit camp of the Qing army for a while, he turned around and asked Yang Qilong, Zhuge Zhengyang, Cui Liu, Zhao Hongkui and others who followed him to "work overtime" with him, "The Qing Yao is very arrogant, you have to give them a warning!"

"Sage," Zhao Hongkui said, "The students will lead a team of elite soldiers to fight a night attack and kill dozens of heads, and they will not be arrogant."

Zhao Hongkui, the group of "Da Nanshan teenagers" and Elephant Pang's "little father-in-laws", were all the first students brought out by Zhu Hetong. After the military school opened in the Guangzhou Crown Prince's Mansion, they all changed their words to be in charge of Zhu Hetong's friendship with the saints. The self-proclaimed in front of Zhu Hetong was "students", which not only seemed close, but also confirmed the generation of teachers and students.

If you have a certain seniority, you will be determined by the superiority and inferiority. It will be difficult to commit the superiority if you want to be inferior.

Because the first phase of the Military Academy brought together a total of 72 people, and everyone is of the same seniority. Whoever wants to be a subordinate or a superior crime, killing his master and usurping the throne, the other 71 people will definitely not accept it!

Zhu Hezhang looked at Yang Qilong again, and Yang Qilong said, "Sage, night battles may not be beneficial to me. If you cannot win, you will inevitably be depressed. Moreover, the general trend is beneficial to me now, just stick to it and you can win."

Zhu Heyingxin said: "The bad water in Yang Qilong's belly is no less than that in the military advisor Zhuge, but his tactical command ability is a little worse."

"Zhengyang, A Liu, you can talk about it too." Then Zhu Heying asked Zhuge Zhengyang and Cui Liu to express their opinions.

These two are now staff officers of the Central Army's marching division, Zhuge Zhengyang is in charge of combat, while Cui Liu is a staff officer of artillery.

"Sage," Zhuge Zhengyang said, "It's better to use a rocket to slap the sharpness of the demon!"

"Yes," Cui Liu nodded repeatedly, "That's a good thing, I haven't used it in actual combat yet. I'll see if it's going to be used tonight!"

Hearing the suggestions of these two people, Zhu Heying also grinned: "Okay! Tonight, I will use the rocket to slap the arrogance of clearing the demon!"

The "rocket" that Zhuge Zhengyang and Zhu Hetian called him is of course the "snitsugar Rocket". The Kangrif rocket in history is similar. It is a pointed cylinder made of copper skin on a wooden stick. It can be launched on a simple launch frame, and the range can reach up to ten miles!

However, the launching medicine filled in this cylinder is not black gunpowder, but a "sugar medicine" made with "military-grade white sugar" and fire salt. Later amateur rocket players generally use "sugar medicine" that has better performance and can shape, instead of using black gunpowder with poor performance as launching medicine.

Although Zhu Heying had never played Rockets, he still knew that there was such a gameplay, so after he reached this era, he put the construction of the "Rocket Force" on his schedule.

However, because his sugar medicine was not mature at the beginning and the yield was not high, he did not do this. Until he took over the Canton Mansion, he finally "get out of poverty" and could play with some "expendable" arms.

So, there will be Rockets tonight!

"Cui Liu!" Zhu and the monk smiled at Cui Liudao, a fierce man who had blown up Xiushui Bridge, "I'll leave it to you, bring four launchers and forty-eight rockets to bombard the Qing Yao camp!"

Then he said to the little military advisor Zhuge Zhengyang: "Little military advisor, you also bring four launchers and forty-eight rockets to attack!

Cui Liu, Little Military Advisor, your two teams have to take turns to launch. Cui Liu, you first, and after fighting eight rockets, you will transfer the position. Little Military Advisor, when Cui Liu transfers, your people will start fighting, and after fighting eight rockets, you will transfer!

Remember, you must transfer in time and don’t let Qing Yao’s Ye Wu take you away!”

"Get orders!"

We will fight to the death tomorrow, and Tuhai will of course not be able to sleep tonight!

However, he did not climb up to observe the Ming army's camp and defense line, because he could not see that the Ming army was trapped in a dark camp, and the light control was implemented, and the ones that were not visible at night were not visible.

There was no enemy camp to see. At this time, I was nestled in my central army tent and watched the report sent by Guangdong Governor Liu Bingquan from Shaozhou. The content of the report was also about Wu Sangui's rebellion!

Liu Bingquan received a little slower news than Kong Sizhen, and he was not sure that he only knew that Guizhou Admiral Li Benshen was mobilizing troops to blockade the passes on the border of Guizhou and Hunan!

Of course, Li Benshen himself was not so brave and could only command him to do such a thing, but Wu Sangui, Wu Yingxiong and Wu Yingqi could not command him to do anything. Only Wu Sangui had this ability.

So there has been news that Wu Sangui has rebelled everywhere in Hunan!

Tu Hai finished reading Liu Bingquan's report and just sighed softly. He had a little luck in his heart, what if the news that Kong Sizhen received was wrong?

But Guizhou has been blocked now

Tu Hai sighed again, put away Liu Bingquan's report, and got up and left the tent where he lived.

Lanterns and bonfires outside the tent were everywhere, illuminating like daylight. The sky was filled with stars.

It seems that tomorrow is a good day! When Tu Hai looked up at the sky, there was a sound of footsteps in his ears. He knew that it was Zhou Peigong who was coming.

Just now, Mr. Zhou Pei was also in the big tent. After Tuhai left, he had to clean up before he could come out.

"Peigong, how are you looking at the celestial phenomena?" Tuhai suddenly asked Zhou Peigong, "Is this celestial phenomena beneficial to our Qing Dynasty?"

Zhou Peigong smiled and said, "Zhongtang, you are joking. Where do I understand the celestial phenomena? There are meteors falling in the sky!"

"There are shooting stars? Where?"

Tu Hai was a little nervous when he heard Zhou Peigong's words, so he quickly looked up and found a meteor before the war started. It might not be a good sign. Maybe some star fell!

"Okay, it seems to be falling to us! And there are more than one? There are one, two, three, four!"

"What?" Tu Hai suddenly became nervous and said to himself: "Four generals? It can't be me, Sun Sike, Sun Yanling, Ma Xiong, right? There are exactly four."

Tuhai was thinking about it while looking up and saw four "meteors" dragging their long tail flames roaring. In just a blink of an eye, they had already passed over his head and fell to the back camp.

"Room Boom Boom"

Immediately afterwards, two loud noises came from the back camp of Tuhai!

Tuhai quickly turned his head to look, and only saw two fireballs rising from the camp behind him, looking scary!

What sign is this? Who is going to die?

Tuhai was thinking of this when someone suddenly shouted: "Meteor is here again!"

Come again?

Tuhai couldn't believe his ears, but he raised his neck and saw that the fire was flying across the sky at an extremely fast speed and heading towards his camp!

After a while, three more fireballs rose into the air from somewhere in the Qing army camp in a rumbling sound!
