Zhang Yuan looked coldly at the traitor who was about to gallop back on his horse, and said coldly to an archer beside him: "Shoot him off his horse and fire the artillery!" The archers beside him received the order, and immediately mounted their arrows, and when they heard a 'whoosh', the arrows flew down like lightning and struck the back of the enemy scout.

A scream rang out, and the enemy scout fell to the ground. Hauge, who was not far away, saw it and was immediately furious. Just as he was about to give the order to fire the red-coated cannon to teach the soldiers and horses of the White Tiger Legion in this Pingxiang city a lesson, a deafening sound suddenly shook the earth.

I saw that the fire continued to erupt from the city of Pingxiang, and the fire flashed, but in a moment, a cannonball was shot into his army, and suddenly countless casualties and screams broke out.

The Qing army's green battalion army, which was originally neatly arranged, is in chaos at the moment. The 200 red-coated cannons in the front row were the focus of this shelling, many of the red-coated cannons were hit and exploded all over the place, and many ** ignited as a result, exploded again, and the death toll increased.

The sky was cloudy, gloomy and terrible. The cold wind was blowing and chilling. Hearing the miserable screams that kept ringing in my ears made people feel like they had stepped into the hell of Shura. The shelling continued incessantly, never stopping, and the ground was bombed to the point that there were potholes everywhere. Bodies and limbs were scattered around the crater, countless arms and leg bones were blown around, and there was not a single intact corpse.

"How can this be, how can this be!"

Hauge's face was full of shock, the place where he let the army be was exactly where the good tiger squat cannon couldn't shoot, otherwise how could he be so stupid and willing to be someone else's live target? At this time, Hauge still didn't understand why the enemy's 'Tiger Squat Cannon' was so powerful and why the range was so long. According to his experience and the calculations of so many Han craftsmen in the army, the range of the Tiger Squat Cannon is definitely not so far, absolutely not.

Why did Hauge send troops with such fanfare this time? Isn't it just relying on those 200 red-coated cannons? Now that those 200 red-coated cannons have become a pile of waste, and the advantages he can rely on are gone, there is no need to fight this battle. Of course, Haug could still rely on the large number of people to take the city, but this time he did not bring siege equipment.

Hauge was unwilling, very unwilling. yelled at the guards beside him: "Quick! Let's go and see how many more redcoat cannons can be used, shoot! Shoot! Shoot hard at Pingxiang City! Hauge took out the saber on his body, his emotions were angry, and he kept yelling, although Hauge's voice shouted very high, but in this battlefield where the artillery roared, no one who was far away could hear it.

The guards panicked and began to run around to deliver military orders.

The 200 artillery pieces were not all destroyed, after all, even if the power of the artillery used by the Pingbei Army increased, but in this era, there was no artillery with high accuracy. However, after a few rounds, the results are also very remarkable. At least Hauge's soldiers and horses were in disarray. Of the two hundred red-coated cannons, half of them were blown up, and some were blown aside, and the artillerymen next to them were killed countless times.

Zhang Yuan looked at the miserable appearance of the Qing army below from the top of the city tower, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart Liu Xia's wisdom and strength. After all, these cannons were built by Liu Xia's orders, and Zhang Yuan naturally admired Liu Xia.

Li Wen coldly glanced at the Qing army below, looked at the man on his back and turned over on his back, and the corpses were all over the field, sneered, and said, "Even if it can't be eliminated this time, it will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and ordered: "Continue the bombardment, without interruption, in case you give the enemy a free time." ”

Li Wen took the telescope in front of his eyes, carefully observed the situation in the distance, he couldn't help but sigh that this telescope is easy to use, he has never used it before, since joining Liu Xia's army, Li Wen has always praised the equipment used by Liu Xia's army, and the most favorite thing for him is this telescope.

"It's amazing!"

"I don't know if I can see the appearance of Tiangong."

"Huh?" Li Wen was suddenly surprised, his face changed in an instant, and he hurriedly said to Zhang Yuan next to him: "General Zhang, it's not good." Look, over there, Hauge has gathered more than a dozen red-coated cannons to prepare our city tower, and is about to fire cannonballs! ”

"What!" Zhang Yuan was surprised, and hurriedly picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction Li Wen said, and after seeing it, Zhang Yuan was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Come on, shoot in that direction, you must stop them!" No, Strategist, let's get out of the castle quickly. I didn't expect that this Hauge's own army had become a mess, and he still had the heart to collect artillery for shooting! ”

Li Wen nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and then walked quickly with Zhang Yuan to other positions, the accuracy of the red-clothed cannon is not high, but if a cannonball hits the top of the city tower, the danger is very high. A single cannonball is not enough to pose a deadly threat to a tower, but it can destroy the buildings above it, killing or injuring those on it.

In order to prevent the red-coated cannons from being destroyed again this time, Hauge set up some small earthen walls next to the cannons, which were not built temporarily, but there were still some effects.

Haoge looked at the city tower in the distant Pingxiang county, sneered, and snorted: "This king is not so easy to bully, even if you can't raze the Pingxiang city to the ground today, you have to suffer a hardship!" With that, Hauge held the command knife in his hand and gave an order. More than 20 guns on both sides lit the fuse, but in a moment, a huge impact continued to come, and the roar was deafening, as if the heavens and the earth were cracking, and the earth was shaking.

"Boom, boom!"

The more than 20 shells rushed towards the city tower, but only one of them hit the city tower of the county seat of Naping Township, and the other shells either did not reach the city, or they shot through and into the city. Or missed.

A cannonball is not very destructive to the tower, and this shell is not as powerful as the shells of the army of later generations, if it is a cannonball in the army in the 21st century, it is estimated that if one goes down, the tower will be gone.

On the top of the north city tower in Pingxiang, because of the attack of cannonballs, two steel cannons were destroyed, one fell to the bottom of the city tower, and the other was smashed by flying stones. There were also several soldiers who did not know whether they were alive or dead, and blood stained the towers. Some of the buildings above have also been destroyed, and the rest have become dangerous buildings that may collapse at any time.

Seeing that it didn't cause much harm to the other party, Hauge's face suddenly became annoyed, and he shouted angrily at the launcher next to him: "How did you shoot, bastard, how the hell did you shoot, there are more than twenty cannons, and only one of them hits." I don't even know if I'm fucking alive or dead! ”

"Aim in the direction and fire again!"

Haoge's angry shouts frightened the soldiers on both sides, and they began to aim their guns more carefully at Pingxiang County. Prepare for ignition.

And the steel cannons above the county seat of Naping Township had already been aimed at them, and they had not yet waited for them to fire. I saw a beam of fire flashing from the top of the city tower, and the sound of cannons shook the heavens and the earth, like thunder. Then where Hauge was, several cannonballs flew in, Hauge quickly crawled to the ground, and the guards around him protected Hauge's body, but the red-clothed cannons next to him suffered and were blown up a few more.

"Damn, I've never suffered such a big defeat. Bow down! Aobai, where, get over to this king! ”

It's too much of a bully, it's too much of a bully! Hauge was furious.

The sky was still gloomy, and on the battlefield, bursts of black smoke kept rising, and mud and sand flew into the sky. There was a sea of blood, the corpses were chaotic, and there were no dead bodies. Quite a few soldiers are squatting on the ground, or lying on their stomachs in pain. I saw that their bodies were covered with blood, and some of their arms were blown off, and the blood could not stop flowing out. A soldier stretched out his hand and pulled at the ground, and a human head rolled in front of him, the dead thing with his eyes open and his hair scattered. The blood had long since dried up.
