Chapter 321: Breaking the City
Chapter 321 Breaking the City
Suddenly, a series of explosions sounded at the head of the city, and the Qing army at the head of the city was attacked in an instant.
Before the gunners who were busy filling the barrels with gunpowder could react, they flew into the sky with the fragments of the gun carriage, and then turned into a rain of blood and fell on the earth.
The large-caliber city defense guns that had not yet opened were also hit by the pond fish and were shot one by one, and all of them were blown up and scattered the gun carriages, and even the people and cannons rolled to the ground.
Behind them, there were also many crossbowmen who were defending the city, and they also had no chance to shoot arrows before going to the western sky, but Huang Zuoling was clever, turned over and rolled and lay down in the battlements, holding his head and enjoying the baptism of blood and rain.
One black dot after another was still falling from the sky, and when it touched the ground, it burst into dazzling light and fierce waves, and the city was in shambles, the ground was full of severed limbs and gun parts, the cries and cries of the wounded resounded in the sky, and some lucky ones who were not bombed shouted and hid in the enemy building, huddled behind the wall and shivered.
Suddenly, a shell detonated a powder keg piled aside.
At this moment, things suddenly became a big blow, and the powder kegs were detonated one after another, and with a series of loud noises that shook the earth, the earth shook for a while, accompanied by fireworks that were enough to illuminate half of the city, and most of the enemy towers were lifted into the sky......
Those Qing soldiers who had just hid in the building never dreamed that the life-seeking ghost would chase after them, and in a burst of dizziness, most of them reported to Lord Yama in a daze.
Outside the city, Duan Zhenghong saw that the time had come, so he suddenly pulled out the pistol on his waist and raised it forward, with a long howl: "Brothers, follow me!" Kill! ”
Before he could finish speaking, he was the first to rush out, and the guards behind him saw this and followed him with a carbine.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill! Kill the Tartars! ”
With Duan Zhenghong's long shouting of killing, in addition to the machine gun shooter and gunner, more than 30 soldiers all jumped out, shouted and rushed down the hillside, shouting and killing one after another, and the dense bullets were all sprinkled on those surviving cavalry......
Seeing this scene, the remaining dozen or so people in the rear of the Qing cavalry turned their horses and fled backwards.
However, they were never able to accurately estimate the range of the spears in the hands of the Ming thief, so on the way back to escape, they were still being shot and fell to the ground one by one.
In the city gate cave, there is another group of Qing army foot soldiers who defend the city, who were originally Liu Xiaobao's subordinates, and for half a year, they followed Liu Xiaobao to fish and meat in and out of the city gate every day, and they did no bad things.
After opening the city gate and letting the horse team out of the city, these people also quickly lined up under the shouts of several generals, intending to go out of the city at any time to meet them.
Listening to the fierce muskets outside the city, they all trembled in fear, and a few of the timid ones were already shaking their legs, and their faces were like ashes.
Suddenly, with a series of loud noises at the head of the city, the huge city gate hole shook and creaked again and again, and the dust and gravel fell straight down, and everyone was dizzy and dizzy, staggering, and many people rolled directly to the ground, and swords, guns, and armor were scattered all over the ground.
Like drunkards, these people staggered and just got up, and suddenly saw through the smoke and dust that the thief was killing, and they were so frightened that they screamed repeatedly, turned around and ran.
One of the generals looked at it, scolded angrily and raised his knife to slash, and after slashing two people in a row, he finally suppressed the position, and then, he shouted to close the door immediately, and everyone around him did not dare to disobey, and regardless of the remnants of the cavalry just outside the gate, he slowly pulled the two heavy city gates.
Finally, the heavy gate slowly closed, and a group of people hurriedly carried the two heavy gate latches and put them on one by one, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally turned the danger into a disaster, some people shouted that they should go to the city to release the guns, some people shouted that Huang Zuoling was gone, everyone should run, and more people crowded around the doorway, confused and didn't know what to do.
When they were in chaos, the next moment, something they never dreamed of happened!
With another loud bang that shook people's hearts, the two huge city gates weighing thousands of catties shattered into countless pieces of wood and slats as if they had been kicked by an incomparably powerful monster, like arrows, flying straight towards the crowd.
Behind them, a blinding fireball......
Suddenly, the Tartars, who had just experienced an earthquake, re-experienced what hell is.
The huge fireball engulfed almost everything in the doorway, and the high-pressure air wave threw the half-dead Tartar soldiers dozens of meters away......
All those who are still alive are no longer loveless!
We're fighting the ghosts, aren't we?
No one still has the strength to run, and they still run a fart, what should I do, let it be fate!
……
Of course, it was not some immortal who blew up the city gate, this was a feast that Duan Zhenghong had prepared for them a long time ago.
The most indispensable thing in the machine gun platoon is machine guns and mortars, in addition, Lin Xiao naturally equipped each platoon with a "Javelin" missile.
In this era, there are no reinforced concrete bunkers, let alone armored vehicles and tanks, and these missiles can naturally only be overused and bombarded at the city gates!
Fortunately, among the missiles in stock, there are quite a few high-explosive grenades that specialize in pillboxes, otherwise those tandem armor-piercing shells that specialize in breaking armor will not have a good effect on bombing cities.
When Duan Zhenghong and the others jumped out of the hillside to charge, the mortars did not immediately follow, but two of the fighters carried launchers and heavy ammunition respectively according to the prior order, and several machine gunners followed after them.
Duan Zhenghong knew very well that all the people who went out of the city were cavalry, and there must be a large number of foot soldiers left in the city, judging from the bravery of the cavalry, these Tartar infantry would not surrender easily, and would definitely resist desperately with the city gates closed.
Yes, he had expected it, and there was no choice but to waste a missile and let these villains taste what it was like to fly on a dirt plane.
The soldiers are fast, and he doesn't want the soldiers to work hard to climb the city and attack hard.
He only has a total of about fifty soldiers on hand, and if he doesn't take advantage of the aftermath of the big explosion to quickly break through the city, if he lets these Tartars react from the panic and fight the soldiers in hand-to-hand combat at the head of the city, then he will not be a qualified commander, and he Duan Zhenghong will never do this kind of business.
The shooter with the launcher, which weighed just over six kilograms, was quite relaxed, and the other fighter with the missile box on his shoulder, although tall and strong as an ox, still ran and panted heavily.
A shot of eggs is almost twelve kilograms, and a box contains two rounds, and it is not easy to carry it for five or six hundred meters at all.
Rao was like this, as soon as he arrived at the firing position, the two soldiers were still breathless, and immediately loaded their ammunition neatly, directly aimed at the sight, and waited for the order of the commander of the section.
……
When Duan Zhenghong was the first to rush out of the smoke and dust in the sky, except for a pungent smell of burning, all he saw was a group of fools and a bunch of walking dead!
Because, dozens of survivors, all of them sat next to each other against the wall like wood, staring blankly at the god-like figure in front of them.
Immediately, Duan Zhenghong quickly climbed to the top of the city, where there were not many people alive.
Some were still alive or lying on the ground on their backs, only to breathe; or are holding broken hands and legs and wailing loudly; or get down on your knees and bow your head and weep; There are also people who tremble all over their bodies, and their mouths keep muttering to themselves, not knowing whether they are praying to God or praying to Buddha......
