On the third day of February, the sky in the north of Bordeaux was covered with dark clouds. From the head of Bordeaux, you can finally see Marshal Billon's army set up camp not far away.

The soldiers of the Baishan Camp of the Ministry of Households imposed control over the city, blocking streets and forbidding the people from going out. Teams of soldiers wearing helmets and armor pushed gun cars through the town from the river in the city, and placed them on the east wall on the right bank.

Chen Jiujing, who was standing on the top of the city, watched three cavalry running out of the French royal army and slowly set up in front of the formation with a large flag. It seemed that he wanted to negotiate, but before he had sent out Margaret's maid, a row of African troops carrying Spanish heavy guns had climbed out of the trenches and faced them with firm steps.

As the rider sternly pulled the horse, a row of wooden forks were placed on the ground, and then a merciless smoke came out in front of the formation.

Seeing Chen Jiujing scratching his head straight on the city, stretching out his palm and wondering what to say. Finally, he met Margaret's equally helpless eyes. He said, "It should be given a pair of Iron Food Billon before the war begins, Spain."

The young general sighed slowly: "The Spaniards understand this rule."

But this is not bad either. At least the gunshots can convey the meaning of never surrender more clearly than words.

Immediately afterwards, a roar of cannons roared in front of the Wang Jun. Rows of Franc cannons fired a terrifying rain of steel, raiding the wooden fence that blocked the cavalry, the wooden walls of guns that were half a man high, and the unruly African troops.

Although nearly three miles away, a shell was accurately hitting the team that was queuing back to the trenches. They destroyed some wooden fortifications and killed a whole line of soldiers.

Amid the sound of cannons, infantry formations appeared from the forest, crossed the artillery position and attacked slowly. Several teams of knights with different armor also lined up in scattered formations and slowly advanced.

Margaret, who was looking at the enemy's enemy with a telescope, looked at the city wall, while pointing to Chen Jiujing to introduce their enemies: "Infantry Legion, look at their tops!"

"The Swiss Order was wearing red tops on the right wing. The legions in brown and blue tops were Germans and Italians. This was a great thing. I could actually see the color of the officers' hats and bands!" Margaret suddenly patted Chen Jiujing and said, "The officers' helmets and hats of the infantry army have white or gold bands on their helmets and hats, and they are tied with feathers to distinguish their identities. Don't you want money? Those people are valuable to arrest."

Chen Jiujing told the messenger without hesitation, but what he said was not arresting: "Tell General Yang that the officers were tying bird feathers on their helmets and hats."

"Abide by the order!"

Although he said it was obscure, he knew what Yang Ce would do.

The martial arts lecture hall instruction: The battlefield does not value profit, kill the horse first.

"The Swiss regiment with spears is very brave, and the German mercenaries with horse-drawn knights standing in the square formation are also very powerful. They are all powerful brigades, left wing!" Margaret had never clearly seen a person so far away, and he clasped his fists and touched his iron hands, "Marson Billon's left wing, are the infantry of the two legions new... Are the kings crazy or Billon crazy?"

Halfway through Margaret suddenly burst into panic screams from her armor, and said to Chen Jiujing with trembling, "Twenty or twenty-four siege cannons, Bordeaux can no longer defend, no longer defend."

There is a reason why the siege cannons appeared on the battlefield that scared Margaret. The watershed of European military was in the Italian War. In that war, France showed Europe the terrifying siege ability of well-trained cavalry, professional infantry corps, and cannons to Europe.

To this day, the reason why Spain is struggling in the Netherlands is that the Netherlands has built extensive bastion fortresses, making it difficult for tens of thousands of Spanish troops to move forward.

The reason why low territories, including Germany, and the Netherlands, had so many bastions was because of the French artillery forces in the Italian War. This was also the reason why Philip, who dreamed of unifying Europa, did not take action against France, because he knew that even if his army could capture France's city, he could not defend it.

But artillery is not used casually. Europe does not have good saltpeter ore, so it can only use loess to make saltpeter. Twenty-four huge artillery fired in a battle to consume energy to destroy France's saltpeter production for two years.

Now that these heavy siege cannons appear here, there is no doubt that Margaret will feel horrified inside.

In an extremely panic, she heard a voice.

Chen Jiujing said: "Don't be afraid, Margo, don't be afraid."

He could tell Margaret more precise data, for example, the Spanish stone-firing cannon only had the accuracy of hitting a ship within a hundred steps. Although the city was much larger than the ship, it was also much further away, and this cannon that bombarded huge stones could only hit two miles.

At least those bulky things could not be done before defeating Yang Ce's African army, and the trenches like gullies would make them unable to go anywhere.

Cannons that require multiple cows or horses to pull cannot cross the trench, even if they are mounted on wooden boards.

But he didn't, just waved the flag in an orderly manner and told Margaret calmly: "Don't be afraid."

As a large number of small-caliber Fran machine cannons and mortar cannons dropped shells on Yang Ce's position, countless infantry companies of the entire army slowly unfolded, and advanced to the first line of defense with a huge battlefield width with the momentum of a large army.

After their army, several teams of cavalry moved alternately to the left wing. They had knights in gorgeous plate armor and riders pulling Fran's cannons. This was their effective tactics to deal with the confrontation between the continental phalanx. The disadvantage of the difficulty of the soldiers in the phalanx quickly changing directions was to use cavalry artillery to quickly bombard the flanks in order to achieve a comprehensive victory in the field.

However, this attack, which followed the cheerful drumbeat, stopped before it even entered the preset position... Their enemies all crawled into the ground, and there was no phalanx at all. It seemed that the artillery attack did not work. Instead, the enemy troops occupying Bordeaux continued to send a Spanish army to move toward its flank.

In fact, the cannon worked.

One-third of the rebels built by Yang Ce before the war were destroyed, and several hundred Ministry of Households also suffered different casualties, but there were only minor casualties.

When the shelling stopped, a group of African troops lined up in neat formations placed their Franco cannons behind the first trench, and the tiger squat cannons were placed in front of the formation, and they were placed together with the lances that were laid down, and were nailed to death at an angle of close to the flat firing.

Yang Ce stayed with the artillery behind the defense line, which seemed to be the habit of every martial arts student, and the artillery position was their command center.

No matter what kind of cannon it is, even a crossbow cannon can bring them an extraordinary sense of security and determination to win.
