Chapter 258: Artillery Assistance

Fan Wenshun, the city guard not far away, saw the heavy casualties, and felt that there was no hope of resisting the Yuan army, so he pulled out his sword and was about to commit suicide to apologize.

Fortunately, Zhao Rui went quickly and kicked him away.

"Bastard, you're not afraid of death, what are you afraid of! If you want to die, you will also die under the enemy's sword, and before you die, you will have to pull a few Tartars to accompany the burial, understand! Killing one is resisting your fate, and killing one more is your earning! Look over there! ”

Zhao Rui pointed in one direction, Fan Wenshun looked at it, and saw that his deputy general Niu Fu was leading a group of soldiers to resist the enemy, it seemed that the countless Yuan troops here could not be killed, Niu Fu was crazy, and the weapons in his hands kept waving towards the Yuan army.

However, some of the Tartar soldiers were not dead, and they were so frightened that they screamed, probably because the knife had injured their vocal cords, and they could only make a strange hoarse sound. The other Yuan soldiers saw such a crazy situation, and for the first time, they were a little frightened and didn't dare to move forward, this Song man was simply a monster!

Fan Wenshun was shocked, seeing that the deputy general could still be like this, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for him to be a main general! So he rushed forward with his sword to support, and kept saying that killing one more would be earned.

"Ahh

The blood of the enemy lifted Niu Fu's spirit, and he threw away the half-dead Tartar soldiers, and he looked up to the sky and roared, like a brave demon, as if he had come out of hell!

Just when the front Pai Yuan army was stunned and panicked, Fan Wenshun was like a surprise soldier from the sky, killing three people one after another.

He was also like a demon, it seemed that this Fancheng city guard was also crazy, shouting loudly: "Hahaha, I earned, I earned!" ”

As he spoke, he killed two more Tartars.

I don't know if this Fan Wenshun's martial arts are very high, or if the Yuan army was stunned by the two of them, and he really let him succeed one after another.

The so-called two armies fight and the brave wins, but for the madman, it is useless to be brave or not, and the madman does not want to die, who is not afraid?

However, the military order was like a mountain, and the Yuan army had to attack again, waiting for the Yuan army to react somewhat, Fan Wenshun and Niu Fu began to be in danger again because of the lack of soldiers.

Zhao Rui didn't want them to be wiped out by the Yuan army, so he took a rifle to support them.

"Tutu...... Sudden ......"

Whenever the Yuan army was about to slash at them, Zhao Rui would always shoot them in time to solve the crisis. Fan Wenshun and Niu Fu learned that Zhao Rui was helping each other, and there was no danger at all, so they signaled to Zhao Rui, and then threw themselves into the fight.

There's no way to go on like this......

Zhao Rui was shooting, while keeping an eye on the surroundings, seeing that the Yuan army had no tendency to decrease, and was still frantically pouring into the city, as they burned more and more houses, the guards of Fancheng had less and less space to move, and the situation seemed to have a tendency to deteriorate.

But the mortar team led by Zhao Gong outside, as well as more than 3,000 musketeers, was Zhao Rui's last reliance, and he just thought that Zhao Gong's side should take action.

Then there was the sound of an artillery explosion at the edge of the city wall.

Zhao Rui knew that this was a mortar team looking for a landing spot!

But what Zhao Rui didn't know was that the generals on Zhao Gong's side were all wiping a cold sweat, because the landing point was too close to the inner city of Fancheng, and they were afraid that they would accidentally hurt Zhao Rui and others.

Only Xiong Er was still there and said proudly: "Haha! I'm still sure of it! Anyway, whether you accept it or not! ”

At this time, Xiong Er's cheeks were still chewing something, although everyone didn't want to admit defeat, but Xiong Er's technique was accurate, this was a fact that couldn't be admitted, so everyone adjusted the angle according to Xiong Er's guidance.

The previous burst of artillery hit the Yuan army in a cold sweat, but after looking for a place to hide for a while, they no longer saw the danger of artillery, so they gathered together again and attacked Fancheng.

But the next area, insisted on becoming a hell on earth, "boom, boom, boom, boom......" explosions were densely populated, and the Yuan army who blew up died tragically on the spot before they had time to cry their father and mother, and even destroyed many return cannons.

"Transfer! Hurry up and transfer! ”

Liu Zheng had experienced the danger of artillery, knew the power of this artillery, and commanded the Yuan army to converge towards another gap in the city wall, wanting to attack the city here.

Xiong Er took the telescope to take a look, and directly reversed the angle of the direction of the artillery, and directly fired a burst of artillery into the Yuan army again.

"Whew...... Whoosh......"

Coincidentally, it hit the place where the Yuan army regrouped, and killed dozens of people.

Zhao Gong was also checking with a telescope, and couldn't help waving his arms fiercely to applaud!

"Xiong Er, it's good, it's amazing!"

So everyone adjusted according to Xiong Er's angle and direction, but this time the Yuan army learned wisely, perhaps because Liu Zheng had suffered many shells, and he already knew very well that the artillery in front was just a test, and then a large number of artillery would attack.

Don't run away now, but when!

"Quick! Transfer, keep transferring! Liu Zheng hurriedly shouted, and all the soldiers of the Yuan army did not know why, so they all followed Liu Zheng and arrived at the gap in the next city wall.

"Good ...... Risk"

Liu Zheng wiped his cold sweat while panting, looking at the place where he was standing with fear, waiting to see when the artillery would fall. Thinking about Zhao Rui's artillery, it is not that there are no countermeasures, as long as you know where the first artillery fell and escape.

It's just that the return cannon is troublesome to carry, and it is still more dangerous if it doesn't move so fast.

At this time, Fang Hongbin and Xiong Daxiong San both ordered their subordinates to set up the position of the mortar, and were about to shoot, when suddenly Zhao Gong looked at it with a telescope in one hand, and quickly swung his other hand to make them stop.

"Wait, don't launch yet, the Yuan army has shifted its position again, it seems that they have understood that what lies ahead is just a temptation!"

Zhao Gong's words caused several other generals to look at each other, thinking about what to do, if they were escaped by the Yuan army after each temptation, then what would their mortars use to cause damage?

Just when the generals were hesitating, Zhao Gong suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and in a defect on a mountain, he clearly saw a figure shaking.

"Someone sneak attacked! There's no time, you guys follow Xiong Er's scale and cover it directly with firepower! After Zhao Gong finished speaking, he hurriedly took two thousand musketeers to the place where the enemy passed to block the attack.

Xiong Er had already begun to arrange the orientation and angle of the artillery with a smug expression, and the other three could only follow Xiong Er to make the same settings.

Fortunately, the current position of the Yuan army is far away from Zhao Rui, so there is no need to worry about firepower hitting Zhao Rui's head.

I hope Xiong Er is so accurate every time.

Several people prayed silently with cautious expressions, and Xiong Er saw it and just smiled and said that it was no problem.

After everyone set up the mortar, Xiong II gave the order.

"Three shots, salvo!"

"Wow...... Whoosh...... "Countless artillery pieces were fired at once.

Just as Liu Zheng was looking at the original position a little inexplicably, thinking about why he hadn't dropped the artillery, he finally saw dense black dots flying in the sky.

Hehe, it's finally here, Liu Zheng was very satisfied with the result of his thinking, and nodded with a smile.

The battalion general on his side was also watching the sky closely, seeing the shells flying over, and hurriedly urged Liu Zheng to lead the team to escape.

But Liu Zheng waved his hand, like a magic stick, and said nonchalantly: "No need, I have already calculated the landing point of the cannonball......

"Whoosh ......"

But how does it sound like the whistling is getting closer......

Liu Zheng opened his eyes suddenly, and found that the battalion general who had spoken before had already run to the side, and looked back at Liu Zheng as he ran, with an expression of looking at the second fool.

What the!

In an instant, a burst of artillery exploded four zhang away, just in the dense place of the Yuan army, and then a large number of artillery pieces fell, causing a violent explosion.

How can it be!

Liu Zheng also hurriedly covered his head and ran, fortunately he was the general at the back of the team, otherwise he would have been killed by a few shells just now!

Liu Zheng's face turned pale, he couldn't imagine that Song Jun's strategy had changed, and he could fight so accurately without testing, oh my God, how did they do it!

The sand, gravel and dirt were lifted into the air and scattered everywhere, and when Liu Zheng ran to a safe place, his body was already covered with mud, as if he had crawled out of the mound.

Looking back, there are no more than a few Yuan troops gathered at the gap now, and the smell of burnt is everywhere, and the lethality of mortars is so powerful that it is simply sensational.

At this time, a legend suddenly popped up in Liu Zheng's mind, which was a legend known to the officials of the Yuan court: Zhao Rui's artillery and muskets were very sharp and unmatched!

Could it be that this legend is true......

Liu Zheng looked in the direction where the cannonball was flying, but he couldn't see anything, his mouth was half open, and his eyes were full of fear.

With the help of Zhao Gong's mortar, Zhao Rui was finally able to feel that the number of the Yuan army was a little loose, and their team was out of line for the first time, which showed that the mortar should have killed a lot of Yuan troops.

At this time, most of the musketeers' ammunition had bottomed out, and Zhao Rui ordered them to shoot quickly, and then they had to use bows and arrows to meet the enemy!

At this time, Zhao Rui suddenly keenly heard a dense gunfire coming from the direction of the mortar.

It should be that Zhao Gong's troops were attacked by the Yuan army, and Zhao Rui was not worried about these at all, because the tactics of having muskets in front and mortars in the back were the most ideal, and they could really destroy all forces.

The guards defending the city of Fancheng suffered many casualties, but the Yuan army did not take advantage of the slightest, not only did the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty do their best to defend, but also killed tens of thousands of mortar artillery, which is also a big loss.

At this time, Ahri Hague and Liu Zheng's remnants of the defeated generals were mixed together, and Ahri Hague couldn't help but be furious, saying that you Liu Zheng is not a spy, how can you lose so many troops!
