Chapter 880 Adventure
Seeing this, the prince asked, "Seventh brother, what is your business?"

Shen Bingzhu chuckled, "During this trip, I saw that many soldiers were frostbitten, and the soldiers stationed there also suffered from severe frostbite. I brought some ointment, as long as you apply it on everyone, it will be healed in a few days .

In this way, the soldiers do not have to suffer from the pain and itching of chilblains.Soldiers are in good condition and concentrate, which can also improve combat effectiveness. "

The prince nodded when he heard this, "Didn't you say that Qiqige only prepared one bottle for you? There are more than 1 people in the camp now, are you sure it's enough?"

Shen Bingzhu replied: "The ones for soldiers are indeed not as good as those made by Qiqige for me, but they are concentrated. Just a few drops of hot water in a large bucket, and everyone washes hands, faces, and feet, and it will be effective." .”

"Okay, then you can go." Prince Yinfeng nodded, agreeing with Shen Bingzhu's words.

His hands and feet were a little sore and itchy at first, but after using the ointment given by Shen Bingzhu, they are already healed now, neither painful nor itchy, and it will be fine after the scabs fall off.

Shen Bingzhu took Baozhu and his followers to do this together.

Almost all the soldiers suffered from chilblain in such a freezing environment. After washing their ears, face, hands and feet with hot water mixed with liquid medicine, the pain and itching can be relieved.

They are very grateful to Seventh Brother. Their hands don't hurt anymore, and they don't have to scratch their hands holding weapons. Moreover, when they sleep at night, they don't have to sleep badly because of the heat and pain and itchiness. They can sleep more peacefully.

Just such a small matter made the soldiers full of energy and full of confidence in this battle.

The prince and Fucha could clearly feel the high morale of the soldiers.

Although the local generals Hesheli and Lee were high-ranking generals, they could not avoid frostbite.

Although Seventh Brother hadn't done any meritorious service yet, this move alone was considered a meritorious service in their hearts.

In addition, Shen Bingzhu took advantage of the absence of Russian cavalry for the past few days, and led the soldiers to bury the iron bumps in the ground.

Three days later, the scout came back in a hurry, saying that there were nearly 5000 Tsarist Russian cavalry rushing over.

After getting this information, the prince began to deploy a counterattack.

In the past three days, the cannons transported over have stood tall on the city wall.

The prince stood on the tower, holding a binoculars, looking at the dark cavalry, feeling a little nervous.

This is the first time he has led troops to fight, and he still sticks to the city gate.

Occupying the right time, place and people, if he can't repel the aggressive soldiers of Tsarist Russia, it will be his failure.

The fifth elder brother Yinqi was also very nervous, also holding a telescope in his hand.

Shen Bingzhu's eyes were burning, "Second Brother, do you want to keep all the five thousand Tsarist cavalry here?"

The crown prince was puzzled, and looked at the seventh elder brother, "Seventh brother, if I can catch all these Russian cavalrymen, Gu will be happy!"

Now the city gate they are besieging can only be passively defended.

Even if these cavalry can be defeated, it is very difficult to keep all these cavalry.

Shen Bingzhu smiled, "Second brother, can you wait for the Russian cavalry to arrive at the encirclement before ordering the shelling?"

The prince thought for a while, and pointed to the area not far below the city gate. Shen Bingzhu buried some iron lumps in that area, which were similar to bombs. "Is it because of the things you buried before?"

Shen Bingzhu nodded, "That's called a mine! After those cavalry pass by, I'll have someone pull the fuse, and those mines will explode at that time.

Because of the explosion behind these cavalry, the horses were frightened after the loud noise, and would only run forward, closer to the range of our cannons, and the shelling effect would be better.

At the same time, although these people have muskets on their bodies, because the horses under their crotches are frightened, the accuracy of their shooting will be affected, and the effect will be even worse. "

Hearing this, the prince nodded, "Seventh brother, the shells made are powerful, since you say so, Gu will trust you!"

So the prince ordered again, and General Li Hesheli felt that the prince's decision was reckless.

I'm even more worried that the prince is so overjoyed that he won't listen to other people's advice.

General Hesheli said in a deep voice: "Prince, this move is dangerous! If their horses come to our city gate fast enough, their muskets are more accurate than our muskets! We will suffer!"

The prince smiled and said: "General Hesheli, our gun technology has also been greatly improved, not inferior to that of Tsarist Russia. Especially our artillery technology has made great progress thanks to the efforts of the seventh brother! Since the seventh brother If you are sure, then this matter should be feasible!"

Now that the crown prince has said so, it is difficult for General Hesheli to continue persuading him.

But thinking of the prince's comfort, General Hesheli said

"Prince, it's dangerous on the tower, let's go down." General Hesheli said, Elder Suo Ge wrote to him personally, must protect the safety of the prince.

His life is not gone, but the prince must be safe and sound.

When the crown prince died, the entire Hesheli family was finished.

The prince hesitated, although he could not participate in the battle in person, but standing on the tower and watching the battle below, it was equivalent to participating in the battle in person.

At this time, Shen Bingzhu said: "Second brother of the prince, swords and guns have no eyes, and the other party has muskets, so the city gate is indeed not safe. My brother will accompany you to the bunker, and you can see the situation below clearly."

The fifth elder brother Yinqi also nodded, "Yes, second brother, we have binoculars in our hands, so we can see clearly."

Prince Yinreng nodded, "Okay, brothers go down together."

He can't hide alone, he wants to take his brother down with him, and his behavior will be inconspicuous.

As soon as they arrived in the bunker below, the cavalry of Tsarist Russia had passed the ambush area and entered the second ambush area. At this time, a red fuze from Hongxia County was fired from the tower.

The people ambushing in the distance pulled the fuse, only to hear a loud bang under the feet of these cavalrymen, and the mud on the ground was immediately blown up.

Hearing the loud noise, the horse ran in fright, and the cavalry, who had just been on the verge of breaking through, lost their formation for a while.

Prince Yinreng looked at the Russian cavalrymen who were blown upside down, and immediately praised, "Good, good!"

At this moment, the musketeers on the city gate began to aim and shoot.

The new red-clothed cannon also began to bombard the cavalry below. Suddenly, thick smoke flew up and filled the sky.The roar of war horses and the screams of those cavalrymen came one after another.

The prince was astonished, seeing such a fierce battle scene for the first time.

After a while, the crown prince looked at Shen Bingzhu, "Seventh brother, is this the hot weapon you mentioned?"

Shen Bingzhu nodded, "Yes, this is how wars will be in the future, and it may change in the future, but this is a development trend."

"Retreat!" The Tsarist Russian soldiers felt careless. In the past, they were able to defeat the Qing army with such a large army. Even if the worst result was a tie, they would gain benefits.
