Chapter 377: Blocking (2)

This wave of about 3,000 kilowatts of heavy armor roared frantically, divided into three ways and rushed to the Ming army's defense line, followed by 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and the momentum was huge.

"Rush forward! The Ming army is a thin layer of people, and they can be crushed to death by pressure! Break through the Ming army and return to the grassland! ”

In three directions, more than a dozen of the 100 household chiefs in the Warat army all waved their swords and shouted loudly.

These Vara Hundred Household Chiefs were mobilizing loudly, and at this moment, a burst of gunfire rang out behind the low wall of the Ming Army's defense line, which was even more strange than the previous gunshots, and in three directions, seven or eight Vara Hundred Household Chiefs exploded with blood, and they were stunned.

A brave Varat Hundred Household Chiefs led the team to rush to the front with a big shield in his hand, and he was raising his arms and shouting, his posture was quite brave, and he also attracted several gunfires, and several blood plasma spurted out of his head and chest at the same time, and the whole person had to turn around a few times before falling to the ground, which frightened the surrounding Warat soldiers with trembling legs and stomachs.

"Hey! Why are you playing so early! ”

In front of him, the momentum of the Warat army was suddenly shocked, and the general Yan Hu was very dissatisfied, and he wanted to scare all the Warat soldiers and horses away, and the thousands of birds under his command did not need to appear.

Fortunately, the Warat generals who pressed the formation behind still had deterrent power, and the tide of Warat's troops continued to surge.

"Eighty steps...... Seventy steps...... Sixty steps...... Fire! ”

"Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

In three directions, the commanders of the two battalions and the commanders of the thousand battalions gave orders almost at the same time.

Behind the low wall of the Ming army's defensive line, a row of bird-gunned hands came out, and the sound of the fluffy volley of guns was deafening.

Immediately afterwards, more than 10,000 bird-gunners took turns to rise and fall, and began to fire in turns, and the bird-gunned voices roared, sometimes mixed with the muffled sound of the ten guns.

The thick smoke of gunpowder quickly covered the foot of the Ming army's defense line, and the people who were watching the battlefield were watching the battlefield except for the sound of guns and cannons like rain, and it was difficult to see the details, and the two of them only felt that the wave of Wara soldiers and horses was swallowed up by the inexplicable abyss.

It feels so intense, so real, so terrifying.

A moment later, he and Ah Zhiyuan saw the remnants of the soldiers who fled from the smoke and fog, and the two of them felt a little more steady.

At this point, the first wave of attack of the Warat army, except for launching a huge charge and making several volleys, which may have injured three or four hundred Ming troops, there was no result at all, and their own side left at least five or six thousand corpses, not counting those who were seriously injured by the Ming army's birds and artillery!

"Although the Ming army's firearms are sharp, this Ming army's defense line is not without a way to break through!"

Archa's Zhiyuan looked at the subordinates who looked at them with shocked expressions and said slowly.

"If this battle is defeated, then there is no possibility of our Warat resurrection, and our people will be swallowed up by the Tatars and other tribes!"

Ara's tone was calm, and the hand holding the hilt of the knife was extremely hard.

"In this battle, all the generals and soldiers must have the determination to die, and this life must be given up!"

The Elder Governor had led the troops for many years, and he had never been so stern, and a strange cold aura blew in the hearts of the surrounding Warat soldiers and horses, and it also dispelled most of the horror caused by the tragic scene just now.

At this time, the smoke of gunpowder at the foot of the Ming army's defense line gradually dispersed, and I saw a large piece of corpse lying forty or fifty steps away in front of the low wall, as if a blood-red human flesh carpet was spread on the ground, which was daunting.

"The low walls of the Ming army's defense line are twists and turns, and the Ming troops on the left and right cannot meet each other, and some places are a separate section."

With a choking sound, Ah Ra Zhiyuan pulled out his waist knife, pierced it on the ground, and shouted loudly to the generals around him: "With a swarm of soldiers, go straight to a section, and if you can't rush once, you will rush ten times!" As long as the low wall of the Ming army is broken down for a section and swept left and right, the soldiers and horses on the Ming army's defense line will have to retreat on all fronts! ”

Ara's eyes flashed at this time, obviously determined to fight to the death.

"Order!"

The generals around the Arazhiyuan nodded one after another, and everyone also admired the Arazhiyuan.

At this time, the horn in the formation of the Warat army was full of horns, and the flag was unfurled, about two or three quarters of an hour, the deployment of troops was completed, and another wave of Warat soldiers and horses came out of the formation, the scale was about the same as the last time, and it was more than 20,000 people, still divided into three roads, scattered into three wide planes, as if to repeat the futile impact of the last time.

However, after the Povarat soldiers and horses had rushed half a mile, they gradually gathered together and rushed towards several relatively isolated mountain passes.

"The real battle is only beginning now."

Seeing the movement of the Warat army, the staff general Yan Hu and the staff general Sun Xu also condensed their minds.

The original shock formation of the Warat army was not dense, but this time it was almost shoulder to shoulder, foot rubbing, and from a distance, it was exactly the same as the literal wave of people.

"Damn, damn it......"

The rear camp of Yanzhou Town kept chattering about General Fan Jingnian, and one of the waves of Wara soldiers and horses was rushing towards the mountain col he was personally guarding, and there were only about 400 people on the defense line of sixty or seventy paces wide, but the other party rushed to more than 5,000 people!

"Fire! Fire! ”

General Fan Jing roared loudly, while ordering the bird-swordsmen in this section of the defense line to fire in advance, while dispatching his long knife men to prepare for engagement, and also warning his comrades in the left and right sections of the defense line.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Ming army on the ridge slopes of the other two depressions also faced the same situation.

In the blink of an eye, the guns on the Ming defense line roared, and the Warat soldiers who were a hundred paces away were immediately knocked down seventy or eighty, and the second round of guns at sixty paces knocked down more than a hundred, and these rounds of bombardment almost swept away the front row of Wara soldiers and horses.

However, this damage only stripped the shallow layer of the man's waves, and the momentum of the Warat soldiers and horses was still unabated, and the third round of guns seemed to have to pull the trigger on the opponent's head.

In the face of the crowd ten times that of himself, even the veterans of the front and back camps of Yanzhou Town were frowning and their hearts were tightened at this time.

"Get on the bayonet!"

The general Fan Jing and the commanders of the other two sections of the defense line all shouted, this familiar order greatly boosted the morale of all the Ming soldiers, and the bayonet was unsheathed and buckled on the muzzle, and the bloody battle was about to begin.

Suddenly, less than ten paces behind the Ming soldiers, the gunners with strange iron pipes roared loudly, and they were still busy with something.

I saw that the iron pipe was very thick, almost catching up with the jack cannon, and said that it was strange because there were only three gunners fiddling, and the pipe was not facing straight ahead, but tilted its head upward.

"Tom! Tong! Tong! ”

In three directions, there was a slight muffled sound, and the iron pipe spewed out a cloud of black and mushy things, which arced and fell leisurely sixty or seventy paces away.

Boom......

A cylindrical lump of iron smashed into the head of a Warat soldier, instantly smashing the creature to the ground, and the crowd behind him stepped mercilessly on his body, and the iron lump was kicked open.

The other person had sharp eyes and stepped over with one foot, just as it was an ordinary cannon, he was a little puzzled, not only the strange shape of this cannon, but with such a little strength, what could it be used for?

In the blink of an eye, the question of the Warat soldier was answered, and with a bang, the world of the Warat soldier was light, and he felt that he was soaring into the air, and there was a leg with messy and charred flesh and bones, passing in front of his eyes.

In the dense crowd, blazing fireworks burst into clusters, each of which swallowed dozens of people around them, chewing flesh and blood in an instant, and body fragments were sprinkled like rain.

"Earthquake Thunder!"

Seeing that the tide of human ants was cut off by this flame light, the Arazhiyuan and the Great Khan in the rear also exclaimed almost simultaneously.

It's just that how did this Ming army's earth-shattering thunder throw such a distance!

"This Jingtai two-year-old thunder cannon, taste comfortable!"

Seeing this picture of blood and fire, Yan Hu on the defensive line shouted, his heart was extremely happy, this thunder cannon was a real killer to blow up people.

This thunder cannon is actually a bit like a mortar, but at this time, the Yushan Town Soldier Battle Bureau didn't even get the bottom ~ fire, so naturally it couldn't get a mortar.

This weapon is a big killer weapon used by Liu Juntao to make up for the lack of firepower of the troops, after all, the bird gun at this time is not a continuous fire, there will be a gap in every round of fire, and it is best to have a fire support weapon.

But Liu Juntao couldn't turn into a craftsman to solve this problem, but he cast a nirvana: a reward, and at the same time gave a limit and a hint, the cannon uses a cylinder, not a ball, and it can be landed and exploded, just like a thunderbolt.

The reward of up to 5,000 taels of silver made many craftsmen of the Yushan Town Military Bureau, Dongpingzhou Ordnance Institute, and Xuzhou Military Bureau red-eyed, and soon Liu Juntao got more than ten kinds of samples, and even whimsical designs, but they were still too far behind in terms of practicality and reliability.
