Chapter 277 Hit
Chapter 277 Hit
Seeing Qin Yu hit the target with both shots, Jiang Zuo was shocked.
“This is too accurate!”
I thought that this shot was just luck, but the second shot couldn't be just a coincidence again.
"Is she really a genius?"
Even Jiang Zuo couldn't help but doubt.
You know, although these styles of flintlock rifles were the leading technology of the era, they did not have a 100% hit rate.
In actual use, there are still some deviations.
And Qin Yu, a novice, was able to achieve such a terrifying hit rate.
At this time, Jiang Zuo couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Did you aim carefully before shooting? I can't shoot two times in a row!"
"Of course I am serious about it, it's definitely not luck. I have been practicing archery since I was a child. This thing seems to be much simpler than a bow and arrow."
Qin Yu's face showed a hint of pride and joy. As he spoke, he looked carefully at the weapon in his hand and found it more and more interesting.
"If you don't believe me, shoot me again."
This time, it was Jiang Zuo who was serious.
Maybe both shots were just accidents.
A moment later, Jiang Zuo handed the rifle loaded with ammunition to Qin Yu.
This time, Qin Yu took the flintlock and seemed more calm. He didn't even need to cover his ears and focused on aiming at the target.
Shoot again.
In a blink of an eye, the bullet could only hit the dummy's head.
Jiang Zuo looked at the scarred dummy and began to doubt himself.
He has practiced the ancestral spear skills for so long, but he is not as good as a woman?
Seeing the bullet hit the dummy's head again, Qin Yu said happily: "See, I was definitely not lucky."
"Saw."
Jiang Zuo was stunned for a moment, then he carefully packed up the guns and ammunition and said, "Let's stop here for today's training."
As he said that, he slowly walked to the dummy and took a look at it.
The three bullets hit locations with almost no difference.
From this point of view, Qin Yu is a real sharpshooter.
"Since you are so capable, why don't you join our An Ding Army and become a female gunner?"
Jiang Zuo couldn't help but say.
Qin Yu's spear skills are even better than some well-trained soldiers in the Anding Army.
Isn't this a gifted talent?
If all these bullets were fired at the head, many enemies would be killed.
"Really? I can join your army?"
Qin Yu did not listen to Jiang Zuo's joking thought, but asked seriously.
Although she is the third daughter of the Qin family, she is a citizen of the Chen State. However, because of her hatred for the Chen court, she can't wait to join the Yan army and attack the corrupt Chen State.
Ever since she left the State of Chen, she had been holding a lot of anger in her heart. Thinking about her brother running around to revive the Qin family, while she could only stay in the State of Yan, she was always anxious and uneasy every day.
Seeing that Qin Yu took his words seriously, Jiang Zuo only said: "After all, you are a Chen countryman with a special identity. Of course, it is impossible for you to join our Yan army so easily. Let me think about it."
After all, Jiang Zuo promised Qin Sheng that he would never let Qin Yu fall into danger.
Allowing her to follow the troops into the State of Chen was already the biggest concession.
Hearing Jiang Zuo's words, Qin Yu's face showed a little more disappointment, and he said: "But no matter what, I will follow you and return to Chen State together."
"Follow me……"
Jiang Zuo felt a little helpless.
In his opinion, it would be a bit inconvenient to take Qin Yu to war.
Forget it. If they invade the State of Chen and join forces with Qin Sheng's rebel army, Qin Yu can then return to her brother and Jiang Zuo won't have to take care of her.
At this time, Qin Yu asked again: "How do you load the ammunition into this musket? Can you teach me?"
Jiang Zuo decisively refused: "No, let's go."
Having said that, Jiang Zuo ordered his men to put away the muskets, and took Qin Yu with him, preparing to leave the shooting range.
Qin Yi looked a little reluctant and turned to look at the dummy not far away.
There was one more thought in her mind...
Two days later.
In Jiangzhou City.
Business as usual.
The news of the "Chen State sneak attack" two days ago reached Jiangzhou City, which also caused anger and anxiety among some people.
At this time, the entire Yan State was discussing the war against the Chen State.
The Chen State would naturally also receive this news.
But the Yan army no longer needed to pay attention to these. Jiang Zuo, one of the commanders-in-chief of this battle, was currently discussing the first battle against Chen with Chen Xiu and the generals of the Huainan army.
The first main attack direction was still chosen as the Chen army position on the opposite bank of the Yujiang Fortress.
The south bank was just an empty space without any city protection and terrain advantages. There were only temporary fortifications built by the Chen army. As long as the Yan army could cross the Ling River, they would be able to break through the Chen army's position and occupy this important place. Then the subsequent army could cross the river from the port and advance into the territory of the Chen State.
The only problem facing the Yan army at this moment was how to force their way across the Ling River.
There are quite a lot of Chen troops on the other side of the river, and they will definitely not let the Yan army set foot on Chen's land so easily.
"According to the investigation of our spies, the Chen army on the south bank has not been mobilized much. In addition to the troops assigned to various fronts, we still have 50,000 elite troops. We can use these superior forces to forcefully cross the Ling River."
Chen Xiu pointed at the map on the table and set goals.
As before, the main attack target remained unchanged, but the deployment of troops was supported by the court.
Now we just need to wait for the arrival of food and reserve troops from the rear before we can launch the attack.
Jiang Zuo looked at the map, thought for a moment and said, "Send 20,000 troops to join the feint attack on Changzhou City."
Chen Xiu was slightly puzzled. After thinking for a while, he understood Jiang Zuo's intention and said, "Are you trying to create the impression that we are going to attack Changzhou and tie up the main force of Chen's army?"
Jiang Zuo nodded and said, "That's right. In the past, our army attacked Chen State mostly in the direction of Changzhou. This time, as long as we deploy most of the main forces on the Changzhou front, Chen Army will definitely send more troops to defend. By then, the defenses in other places will be empty."
"rational."
Jiang Zuo's plan was approved by everyone present.
"Food and supplies will arrive soon. We can launch the attack tomorrow!"
Chen Xiu said in a low voice.
The Yan army in the southern border had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"I think we need to wait another three days."
At this time, Jiang Zuo said.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked towards Jiang Zuo with puzzled eyes.
"Why? What are you waiting for?"
Chen Xiu didn't understand.
They have been waiting for this southern expedition for a long time.
The originally planned raid now had to turn into a head-on battle.
If the delay goes on any further, Chen Jun's defense might become more difficult to break through than before.
"We'll have to wait for another thing to arrive in three days. After three days, we will definitely launch a general attack!"
