Chapter 305: The Tip of the Needle to the Mai Mang

"Lie down, lie down!"

"Bang!"

Another flowering bullet missed, this time the luck was not so good, the main stretching band's arm was already sore, and without paying attention, the ignited flowering bullet shot directly onto the city wall, and was quickly rebounded.

In such a short period of time, even a few experienced officers around him couldn't react, so they could only let the surrounding people quickly lie down.

But Rao is that they reacted very quickly, and at least three people were still killed directly on the spot, and dozens of people were injured.

Fortunately, they are all wearing cotton armor, armor, and eight-edged iron hats, so they can save their lives for the time being, but whether they are crippled or amputated, they still have to wander by the ghost gate.

The news reached Xu Changqing as soon as possible, and Xu Changqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In an ordinary state, even if there is such a mistake, the damage caused will never be so large, the model army has a complete plan for this, and has conducted a lot of drills, but at this time, these pitchers are already exhausted after twenty consecutive rounds of launches......

"Pass my military order, the pitchers will stand back, and the bird-gunners, sword and shield soldiers, and pikemen will come up!"

Seeing that things couldn't be done, it was no longer interesting to stumble like this, Xu Changqing decisively issued a new order.

"Yes!"

Soon, the pitchers, auxiliaries, and civilians went into battle to transport all the catapults and flowering shells to make room for the follow-up brother troops.

As the Blossom Bomb offensive stopped, the battlefield suddenly entered an eerie period of silence.

Although this is not a purely hot weapon battle, the sequelae of this semi-hot weapon battlefield is still not a joke.

At this time, it is not compared to the later generations, there is basically no noise, and people's hearing and eyesight are generally better.

It's like setting off firecrackers, a burst of firecrackers for ten or twenty minutes passes, even if you are in the room, you always need a buffer period.

Not to mention that on this battlefield, almost every flowering bullet bursting is comparable to the sound of two kicks.

This is also one of the reasons why Xu Changqing doesn't want Li Youwei to come over.

War, it's really not for women......

"Ming dog wilted, haha, Ming dog wilted!"

After two or three minutes, someone in the Qing army's battle formation finally came to his senses and shouted loudly.

"Haha, Ming Dog is no good, warriors, ready to copy the guy to work!"

"You damn dogs, I have to pick your dog skin and smoke your dog tendons!"

"Warriors, prepare to storm the city!"

The Qing army had been preparing for a long time, and soon it was excited, and between the breastwork and the chariots, there was a violent tumbling.

The yellow flag of the Chinese army in the rear, Ao Bai's face suddenly turned hideous, revealing a cold sneer: "Inform Shi Tingzhu and Ma Guangyuan's two dog minions, the whole army will attack the city!" ”

"The whole army is attacking the city!"

"Woo~~Woo~~~"

"Knock knock ......"

In a moment, the battlefield quickly became agitated.

In front of Manchuria inlaid with yellow flags, Han army flags inlaid with yellow flags, and three vanguards with white flags, there were five or six thousand people, like a colorful tide, swarming towards the direction of Haicheng.

"Birdmen, get ready for battle!"

Not far away, Xu Xiu's hoarse shout was heard.

Beside her, Li Youwei's little hand also grabbed Xu Changqing's big hand extremely hard, and the whole person was a little stiff.

Xu Changqing is also constantly adjusting his breathing to adjust his mentality.

In fact, if he was conservative, Xu Changqing was completely sure that the three vanguard main forces of the Qing army would be stuck near the third trench, at least today, they would never want to attack the head of Haicheng.

However, this is sure to fall into a vicious circle.

Although Xu Changqing had several experiences in confrontation with the Qing army in Liaodong, he was mostly opportunistic, and he never had a real needle-to-wheat mang, completely head-on on the battlefield.

This made these Qing troops think that as long as they could rush to the head of the city of Shanghai, the model army would definitely be like the Ming army they had encountered before, rushing in one or two waves, and then scattering as birds and beasts.

Moreover, killing and injuring Tartars from a long distance and not getting flags, equipment, and heads is definitely a tyrannical thing.

The most important thing is that if you don't really hit the hard, it is difficult to really establish the heart of a strong army of a model army!

Although Haicheng is still very imperfect at this time, the defense system is very strong, losing this city wall, there are still two city walls available behind Xu Changqing, and there is still room for strength!

Xu Changqing is not afraid of losing!

Even if you lose the bottom. pants, Xu Changqing still has a fleet that can retreat from the sea!

"First row, ready!"

Here, Xu Xiu's hoarse shout suddenly interrupted Xu Changqing's thoughts, and the same shouts of many officers soon came from around.

Xu Changqing looked ahead, thousands of Qing army vanguards, some carrying ladders, some holding shields, had already killed within a hundred steps of the city, and were about to enter the range of the birds.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

"Bang bang ......"

As the vanguard of the Qing army officially entered the firing range, countless crisp bird chirps suddenly came from the top of the city, and the smoke of gunpowder continued to rise.

The Tartars under the city were not afraid of the Ming army's bird guns, they were all wearing multiple layers of armor, and in the past, the Ming army's bird guns couldn't even break their cotton armor, let alone the inner armor.

So they didn't panic at all, even if they were holding shields, many of them were very wanton and didn't have a bit of fear.

But with the continuous screams around them after this round of bird's guns, they suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong......

The bird gun of the model army is completely different from the bird gun of the ordinary Ming army, this is really able to break their inner armor and kill them!

"Dog, why is this Xu Changqing's bird gun so sharp?"

On the left flank of the Qing army, Ma Guangyuan had already rushed to more than 200 steps away, huddled behind a chest wall, and was seeing the battle in front clearly, and couldn't help but spit hard.

He is a time-honored old traitor, the Qing army occupied most of Liaodong back then, he has made great contributions, his hands are stained with the blood of the Han people, and he has extremely rich experience in war.

In the past, he would definitely not have fought so hard.

It's a pity that his eyes are not very good, he was not too close to Dorgon before, but he was slightly ambiguous with Hauge. At this time, Dolgon has occupied the right time and place, and for the sake of a good future, he can only fight desperately for wealth.

But how could Ma Guangyuan have imagined that at least fifty or sixty paces away, the bird gun of the model army could actually break through such heavy armor!

How can this battle be fought?

"Second platoon, fire!"

"Bang bang ......"

But at this time, the soldiers of the Model Army would definitely not give Ma Guangyuan time to think, and in a moment the second round of Bird Guns followed, almost seamlessly.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

At the same time, the heavy turtledove guns, Baizi guns, etc., were also adjusted, and they opened fire at the same time.

Although they are few in number and slightly scattered, the effect of this close range is still amazing.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of Qing army pioneers fell to the ground, wailing and howling.

This is also the cruelest place in this era.

Firearms have been formed, but their power has not yet been truly revealed, and they can hurt people, but it is difficult to accurately hit the vital point and kill with one blow, which makes the battlefield easily become a hellish slaughterhouse for Shura.

In particular, a large white armor with a yellow flag was blasted open in the chest, but it was not hit in the fatal left chest, but in the right chest.

This made his strong body unable to die for a while, and he desperately wielded a sledgehammer like a man-bear.

Next to Xu Changqing, Li Youwei didn't dare to look at this scene anymore, and quietly shrank behind Xu Changqing, almost clinging to Xu Changqing's body.

It's one thing to want to, but it's another thing to actually see it.

It was the first time she had seen such a brutal battlefield, and it was no different from hell......

But there are too few model military birds, and the city wall in the west of Haicheng is more than seven miles, with more than 1,000 bird guns, plus more than 100 Baizi guns and 70 or 80 turtledoves, the firepower is still not enough.

The strength of the Qing army was soon manifested.

After a short period of adjustment, they quickly adapted to the rhythm of the model army's firepower, and under various shouts, they began to return fire with bows and arrows, and at the same time, they also returned fire with many Han army flag firearms.

"Whoosh!"

The Manchus began to practice mounted archery at a few years old, and almost all of them were soldiers, and their experience and means were really not comparable to those of the Han people, especially those old fritters.

Their rain of arrows is not to shoot directly at the model soldiers on the head of the city, but to shoot the rain of parabolic arrows, and use their experience to shoot the rain of arrows high on the top of the city.

This seemingly blind method is extremely vicious, and it is impossible to prevent it at all, and the sword and shield soldiers around the bird guns will soon be difficult to use.

With the screams coming from time to time, the offensive of the Model Army was greatly affected, and the number of wounded and killed soon increased.

"Second row, keep shooting!"

However, the bird soldiers of the model army did not give up, let alone fear, and still withstood the rain of arrows and firepower of the Qing army, and continued to carry out sectional fire coverage, which was completely filled with human lives.

There's no way around it.

Not to mention this time, even if it was not long before the First World War in the future, the lobster soldiers of the Sun Never Set Empire were still in this battle mode!

Do you really think those nobles came for nothing?

Most of them are their ancestors pinning their heads to the waistband of their trousers and exchanged them for one battle exploit after another!

Different from the cowardly noble system of the Ming Dynasty, the nobles of the British Empire were brave warriors on the battlefield, and in many wars, the death rate of the children of the nobles was even more than half.

This is also the aristocratic model that Xu Changqing wants to reshape!

Want to be a nobleman?

OK!

Trade merit for it!

The firepower of the two sides confronted each other for nearly half an hour, and almost half of the soldiers of the model army were wounded, but fortunately, their equipment was raised, and they had eight-edged iron caps and many armor to protect themselves, otherwise, the casualty rate was really unimaginable.

Even so, many of the Bird Gun soldiers are still not afraid of death and continue to line up to shoot effectively, but whether it is their state or the state of the Bird Gun, it is difficult to go down anymore.

Xu Changqing really issued a new military order, and the bird soldiers retreated and put the tartars up!

"Haha, Ming Dog is finished, warriors, rush to the city and slaughter Haicheng!"

"Rush, whoever grabbed Xu Changqing's wife is who's it!"

"Haha, brethren with yellow flags, the time has come to get rich! Come on! ”

"Rush, kill the bright dog!"

The casualties of the Qing army at this time were much more than those of the model army in Haicheng, but their morale was still strong, and the main force was not fatally damaged, especially when the slogans of 'slaughtering the city' and 'robbing Xu Changqing's wife' were shouted.

Hand-to-hand combat, which is more brutal than all before, is about to break out!
