The 10,000-person enemy is nothing new, and the earliest appearance time of the Ming army's 10,000-person enemy is no longer available.

It is a large explosive incendiary weapon used to defend the city, weighing about 80 catties, this firearm is made of mud, with a hollow ball with small holes around it, which is filled with gunpowder and mixed with toxic substances after drying. When the enemy is attacking the city, light the fuse and throw it under the city, and the flames will shoot out in all directions and rotate continuously, scorching the enemy army.

Because it is simple to make, easy to take materials, and has a killing function, it has this title.

But the early 10,000 enemies were too heavy, inconvenient to carry, and could only be regarded as a weapon to defend the city, and in the late Ming Dynasty, after continuous improvement, the 10,000 enemies had developed into an offensive weapon that relied on ignition and detonation, but it still weighed four or five kilograms, and it was still very inconvenient to rely on manpower to throw it out to kill and injure the enemy, but it was too advanced compared to the big guy weighing 80 pounds in the morning.

It wasn't until Yang Feng came and introduced the process of casting and purifying black powder in modern society that the weight of the 10,000 enemies was reduced to about two catties, and the 10,000 enemies also developed from a defensive weapon to an offensive weapon.

Today's 10,000-strong enemy has become the standard weapon of the Jiangning Army, and the Jiangning Army's code stipulates that during the battle, each foot soldier must carry four 10,000-person enemies in addition to bedding, water bottles, dry rations, a pair of spare rubber shoes, bayonets, a brown besil firecracker, and 100 rounds of fixed ammunition.

Although the weight of the foot soldier reached forty-five catties, in Yang Feng's view, these are necessary, as a throwing weapon, the role that ten thousand enemies can play in battle is very huge, which can be seen from the second war in the twentieth century, no matter which country has equipped grenades on every soldier.

And today, the role of the 10,000 enemies is also fully displayed in front of everyone.

One by one, 10,000 enemies were constantly thrown down from the city wall, and huge explosions occurred one after another, and the originally dense crowd under the city wall fell like autumn wind sweeping leaves in the explosion.

Don't look at the supervision of the overseer just now, the black-pressed rogues rushed forward as if they didn't want to die, but when several rounds of 10,000 enemies threw down and exploded, and a large number of hungry soldiers under the city wall were swept down, the hungry soldiers behind were afraid.

In the face of this invincible power of manpower, even the invincible Qing soldiers in the past could not withstand it, not to mention those hungry soldiers, when the first hungry soldier who couldn't stand the pressure threw down the wooden stick in his hand, turned around and fled, it immediately caused a chain effect, and many hungry soldiers also began to turn around and run towards the way they came.

The stormy explosion startled Li Zicheng, who was two miles away, but Li Zicheng was the one who had fought with the Jiangning army at the Mengjin ferry after all, and he had already seen the power of Jiangning's firearms, so he was much calmer than those rookies who had seen the power of Jiangning's firearms for the first time.

However, when he saw that there were signs of collapse on the city wall after just throwing a few rounds of 10,000 enemies, his face suddenly became ugly, and he turned his head to the captain of the pro-soldier beside him and said in a deep voice: "You bring a team of people to tell Li Laiheng that I will only give him half a pillar of incense, if he can't attack again, don't be a Shenwei general!" ”

"Understood!"

The pro-soldier team answered, and led a group of cavalry to rush towards the Qingbo Gate......

In order to take the Qingbo Gate, Li Zicheng divided the siege men and horses into four teams, namely Li Laiheng, Liu Zongmin, Hao Yongzhong and Yuan Zongdi.

Their original plan was to attack Qingbo Gate in turns, each team of men and horses attacked for an hour, and they must not let the Ming army have a chance to breathe.

Li Laiheng has this hatred in his heart, you must know that almost all the eyes of the rebels are now staring at Qingbomen, which means that their every move falls in the eyes of others, but their own people are too uncompetitive, just a few rounds of 10,000 enemies were blown up and lost their souls.

Looking at the hungry soldiers retreating in front of him, he gritted his teeth, drew his long knife and rushed forward with a team of men and horses, and slashed down at the hungry soldiers who were the first to retreat.

"Ah......h

I saw a cold light flash, and one of the hungry soldiers who ran down first let out a terrible scream, and his entire body was cut off in half from his waist, and blood flowed out in pools.

After cutting down a person, Li Laiheng reined in his war horse and shouted, "Bastard, who told you to retreat?" I say it again, everything is given to me, and those who dare to retreat will be killed. ”

"Go back, whoever dares to retreat without permission will be killed."

The soldiers around Li Laiheng also waved the leather whips in their hands and slashed their heads towards the rout, beating those people to scream again and again, and at this time, the hungry soldiers who retreated one after another slowed down, and a group of people crowded together in a chaos.

An old man with gray hair holding a wooden stick suddenly knelt down towards Li Laiheng and cried: "Master Li, you can do it, let us retreat and take a breath, the firearms of the officers and soldiers are too powerful, and the brothers are too right to be killed and wounded." ”

As soon as the old man knelt down, the hungry soldiers around him also knelt down and begged: "Yes, Master Li, you just let us take a breath, let the other teams go first, let's drink saliva first, can't we go back later?" ”

"Master Li, I beg you, you can be merciful and let us rest for a while."

Seeing more and more people kneeling on the ground, the thieves of the pro-soldiers and the supervising team also hesitated a little, and looked at Li Laiheng one after another.

They were not moved by the hungry soldiers kneeling on the ground, but they were afraid that if they continued to force these people to charge, they would not cause a backlash from these people, and if there was a rebellion before the battle, it would be a joke for others.

Just when Li Laiheng was a little embarrassed, the personal soldiers sent by Li Zicheng arrived, "Master Li, King Chuang has an order, if you can't re-launch an attack within half a pillar of incense, don't be a Shenwei general, you should honestly go and be your commander." ”

"What?"

Li Laiheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was not easy for him to climb to the position of General Shenwei, if he was taken down, I don't know how Liu Zongmin and those people would laugh at him.

As soon as he thought of this, a fierce glint leaked from his eyes, and as soon as he waved his hand, a cold light flashed, and a gray-haired head flew up in the air, and the body of the old man kneeling in front of him fell down in a hurry, and blood spurted out of his neck.

Li Laiheng, who had a murderous face, brandished a bloody long knife and shouted: "All of them are for Lao Tzu to attack, if anyone is still here within ten breaths, they will be decided!" ”

"Kill!"

"Ah......h

With a series of screams, the old camp thieves who were in charge of supervising the battle waved their butcher knives, and a hungry soldier was killed on the spot.

Seeing that the overseer team was coming, the hungry soldiers had no choice but to continue to rush towards Qingbo Gate.
