Chapter 48 Shocked Mu Guiying

"Raise your spear and stab straight!"

Yang Zhi was training soldiers on how to use spears in the simply flattened training ground.

Naturally.

There were other lieutenants in the camp training sword and shield soldiers.

The army under Lin Chen's command was a typical ancient army.

Mainly sword and shield spearmen, there were also some archers.

As for cavalry, there were very few, only officers and scouts had horses.

If they gathered together, they could gather 500 cavalry.

"Lieutenant Yang, where is General Lin?"

Mu Guiying, who had searched the camp but couldn't find Lin Chen, found Yang Zhi, Lin Chen's confidant.

Hearing the voice of Mu Guiying, Yang Zhi couldn't help but shudder.

He had also fought with Mu Guiying.

As for the result, it was self-evident.

Yang Zhi swallowed his saliva and tried to make himself look calmer.

"The general led the Shenji Camp out."

Shenji Camp?

When Mu Guiying heard the name, the group of soldiers with strange training methods flashed in her mind.

Originally, Mu Guiying thought Lin Chen was just fooling around.

But what she saw today made Mu Guiying suspicious.

"Which direction did he go?" Mu Guiying planned to follow him to see.

"He went to the east suburbs..."

"Raise your guns!"

Lin Chen looked at the soldiers of the Shenjiying standing in three rows and gave a cold order.

"Fire!"

Bang!

The refined granular gunpowder exploded with huge energy, pushing the lead bullets to shoot towards the earth slope a hundred steps away.

Ling Zhen only saw the lead bullets like a pear blossom rain, splashing countless smoke and dust.

Hiss!

All the soldiers of the Shenjiying present couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Isn't this power too terrifying? !

Lin Chen looked indifferent and looked ahead thoughtfully.

It seems that the matchlock gun obtained from Xiao Zhao should be the product of the late stage of the development of matchlock guns.

This matchlock gun has a caliber of 22 mm, a maximum range of 2800 meters, and an accurate and effective range of 150 meters.

According to this power, it is completely possible to penetrate the heavy armor of Western plate knights at a distance of 100 meters!

If the target was not the earth slope, but the flesh and blood bodies charging forward, they might fall down in unison like wheat being cut.

Although Lin Chen did not know the tactics of modern matchlock guns, he also knew about three-stage shooting.

Immediately.

Let this group of Shenjiying soldiers perform three-stage shooting as they practiced.

"Yes!"

Ling Zhen suppressed his excitement and began to command his soldiers.

Boom!

Boom!

This sound was like thunder in the plain, scaring the birds and sparrows here.

Lin Chen looked at the Shenjiying soldiers who were able to shoot continuously, and then nodded with satisfaction.

This is his hidden trump card.

For Li Tang, who is still in the era of cold weapons, matchlock guns are already epoch-making products.

Lin Chen felt that it was a bit of a waste to use it against the rebels of the White Lotus Sect.

But the "army" in his hands was really useless.

Even if he is given another three months, it won't be like this.

Hmm?

Lin Chen's six senses sensed the spying breath, and he immediately picked up a leaf and shot it in its direction.

This breath was naturally Mu Guiying.

Seeing the slowly advancing Shenjiying in front of her, her shock can be imagined.

Just when Mu Guiying lost her mind, she felt a sharp object breaking through the air coming towards her.

Mu Guiying's eyes narrowed slightly, and she immediately turned over and fell from the tree.

But she didn't expect.

Before she landed, she was grabbed by the shoulder by someone, and the whole person was controlled by the other party.

Mu Guiying, who was about to struggle to break free, saw the smiling eyes under Lin Chen's mask.

Mu Guiying's heart trembled, but she noticed that her movements with Lin Chen were almost touching each other.

Mu Guiying, whose face was slightly red, struggled hurriedly.

Lin Chen did not embarrass the other party and let go.

"Is this General Lin's hidden trick?"

Mu Guiying had not yet recovered from the performance of the Shenjiying.

"How?"

Lin Chen wanted to hear Mu Guiying's thoughts.

Mu Guiying was silent for a long time after hearing this, as if she didn't know how to describe it.

At the same time.

"Master!"

A White Lotus believer wearing a relatively intact leather armor hurried into the courtyard.

This group of White Lotus believers, numbering about 30,000, had just looted a town around the county.

The master of their altar claimed to be the White Lotus altar envoy, and was specially granted by the divine will of the Mother of No Life to save the suffering people.

This statement was quite popular among the victims.

After all, the White Lotus really gave food.

And then.

The instigated victims, led by the master of the altar, swept across the countryside and killed the landlord and his family.

The food found allowed the master of the altar to recruit more victims. At the same time, he could also coerce some ordinary people to increase his momentum.

At the moment, this ambitious leader is trying to find a way to break through the county in front of him.

If he can take the county, his troops can continue to grow.

After all, the food he looted from the towns is almost not enough to supply these tens of thousands of people.

However.

The officials in this county are not like those he encountered before, who collapsed at the first blow.

Instead, they are quite methodical and call on the civilians and servants to guard the city.

Don't look at the tens of thousands of troops under the leader.

In fact, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.

They say they are attacking the city, but in fact they are just chickens fighting each other.

Often, a burst of arrows shot down from the top of the city wall would make the White Lotus followers flee in all directions.

The altar master, who was still racking his brains on how to pry open the county gate, heard the voices of his men outside the door.

"What's the matter?" The altar master had a gloomy face, as if he was very unhappy.

Seeing his altar master like this, the messenger shuddered.

"Altar, altar master, there is a message from the Holy Envoy saying that the court has sent 30,000 troops to attack, and where we are, we will be the first to bear the brunt!"

"Oh, only 30,000 people, I have a lot of men under my command!" The altar master was very confident and said lightly.

Although he had only 10,000 soldiers who could barely be considered brave.

There was no armor, and many of them could only hold sharpened bamboo sticks.

But in the eyes of the altar master.

This so-called court army was no different from many county yamen and county soldiers.

If those guys saw him galloping to kill, they would probably turn around and run away like before.

"Master, don't be careless." The believer frowned and still persuaded his master with some concern.

"Don't say it, how far is the imperial army from us?"

"About a hundred miles."

"Just right, we are just waiting for the opportunity, wait and see!"

The master had heard some Three Kingdoms dramas and felt that he knew how to fight.

Who would have thought.

This imperial army was much slower than he thought.

This hundred miles.

The other party walked for three days!

"Haha, this group of rats took so long!" The master was overjoyed.

"Wait until tomorrow, I will lead you to kill the other party and make them lose their armor!"

The master took the ghost-headed sword he had snatched from a certain executioner and danced with great vigor.

"Okay!"

"Follow the master and kill those imperial dogs!"

The master was able to sit in this position, so he naturally had some skills.

The realm of a third-rate warrior was his reliance.
