When Acton had just charged, he kept staring at the wall of the Taiping army, originally intended to observe the enemy's counterattack, but it brought surprises. The suppressive fire of the Qing army kept pouring bullets down on the wall, causing dust to fall on the wall, but Acton also saw large clods of earth that had been shattered by bullets. Especially after a closer look, Acton could almost confirm that the Taiping walls were extremely weak. Since it was facing the tofu scum project, there was no need to bake the fire anymore, and Acton resolutely retreated, preparing to open the way with artillery.

At the stage when Bi Yuntao was in charge, the first company had a fine tradition of attaching importance to artillery, and the quality of the first company's artillery was no longer inferior to that of the artillery company, and it was even more dominant among the companies. Acton ordered the infantry to clear the ammunition slots, and a company of artillery squads had lowered the muzzle angle and began to bombard the wall head-on.

The range of Napoleon's cannon was as high as 2,000 meters, and now it was only about 700 meters away from the wall, so the soldiers of the Qing army saw that the shells of the two guns hit the wall almost straight. Both shells hit the target accurately, but they did not see the collapse of the wall as Acton had imagined. On the contrary, after the dust cleared, two more holes were created in the wall, and the cannonballs directly penetrated the wall and flew into the town.

"What the hell is this breaking the wall, hit it a little lower, and directly tear down their foundation!" Acton, who thought he could settle the country with one shot, was very disappointed, and the wall was not stronger than he expected.

The artillery squad again lowered the angle and began the second salvo, but the result was the same, the shells again passed through the wall, leaving nothing but large holes. Acton is already going crazy, this is simply beating window paper, hitting where it is broken, and it is not at all forceful.

"Let Acton stop tossing, and the artillery company will also go up! Hurry up and tear down this broken wall, and go into the town to rest, I'm tired. "Guo Xing'a just felt bored, the 10,000 enemies and the earth-shattering thunder were still sharp weapons in ancient wars, but in the face of modern long-range weapons, they were basically useless, and the Qing army no longer needed to solve the problem face-to-face. Guoxinga, who didn't go out with the Tianni sisters, has no entertainment projects, and his morale has not been high.

Acton, who received the order, could only reluctantly order the artillery squad to stop firing and wait for the unified dispatch and command of the artillery company. After Kong Zhen took over, he also had a bit of a headache for this window paper wall, and it would definitely be able to be demolished, but it was not worth wasting too much ammunition for such a thing.

Since the hard smash is not forced, let's try the blasting! The artillery of the Qing army was all reloaded with oval blasting shells, which were pressed to the lowest angle and fired a salvo at the frontal wall. However, the results achieved by the artillery company and the twelve guns of the first company were a bit disappointing. One of the artillery shells failed to fire due to a problem with the firing tube, and two shells were so low that they smashed directly on the ground not far from the wall, and the other nine shells all passed through the wall, causing a series of explosions in the town. 、

"Damn, this rotten dirt wall can't be beaten yet!" Kong Zhen was so angry that he jumped to his feet.

"Company commander, are we still fighting?" The cannon that failed to fire was replaced with a fire pipe, and the gun commander turned his head to ask Kong Zhen.

Kong Zhen, who was upset, didn't bother to deal with the gun commander, but waved his hand impatiently and asked him to cool off.

"Put!" The gun commander misunderstood Kong Zhen's meaning, turned around and ordered the cannon to be fired.

"Boom!" A cannon rang out, and the shell drew an arc and flew towards the wall.

The gunner's heart secretly complained, these goods under his command are all newly selected artillerymen, and their craftsmanship is very trendy. The failure of the fire pipe just now is the operation error of these goods. And now looking at the arc of the shells, they also got the angle wrong.

The moment the artillery commander screamed, the shell had already flown near the wall, but before it hit the wall, it had already exploded in the air, and the artillery commander was even more desperate. A volley explosion was of course the best option, but the Qing army rarely fired such a volley explosion except for long-range hanging shots, because their wooden fuses were not up to par. If you want to explode in the air, you must adjust the fuse very short, and because of the wood, the combustion rate of the fuse is not stable, so it is very dangerous to engage in this kind of volley explosion. If there is a miscalculation, it is very likely that the shell will explode in front of your house as soon as it flies out. Therefore, the Qing army often preferred to have a little less effect than to keep the fuse longer. This volley explosion was not the skill of this group of artillerymen, it was completely their mistake.

"You fuck, after the battle, you go to the staff officer to find the military judge to get twenty whips, and all of your people have to write and check, and then give Lao Tzu back to the furnace for retraining." Kong Zhen, who was almost scared to death, roared at the gun commander.

"Huh!" The gunner reluctantly agreed.

Several of the staff officers of the assistant commander have always held the duties of military judges, and their guard squad has also become a law enforcement team, and all kinds of military orders and punishments are carried out by them. The artillery commander touched his buttocks, and it was estimated that he would have a close contact with the whip of the law enforcement team after the war.

However, when Kong Zhen was training people, there was a rumbling sound in the direction of the wall, and in the incredible eyes of everyone, the wall with more than a dozen big holes collapsed.

"The whip is exempted, and the collective reward will be recorded once!" A smile appeared on Kong Zhen's face.

"Company commander, is it ...... to inspect and retrain as well" The gun commander also laughed, and began to inch in. After all, the soldiers had just learned a few words, and the punishment measures formulated by Guo Xing'a for writing inspections were second only to shooting in the eyes of the soldiers.

"The inspection must be written, and you can't run away from the heavy training, this time it's crooked, and next time it's not so good." Although he has made contributions, Kong Zhen does not dare to let go of business problems.

Seeing that the wall had finally collapsed, Acton hurriedly ordered a company to charge, but the soldiers of the company had just run a few steps, and more than a hundred horses had already overtaken them from behind and rushed directly into the town.

"Hatan, this fool, Lao Tzu will beat him up sooner or later." Watching the cavalry rush towards the uneven ruins and the narrow streets of the town, Guo Xinga said helplessly. Hartan is a pioneer, and it's hard to say whether he is taking credit, but recklessness is certain.

"In the first battle after the injury, he also wanted to perform! The heart is good! "I have been looking at Hatan's good Guiwu, and I began to pave the way for Hatan.

"Bastard, get ready to go into town and rest! Everyone has worked hard all the way! "Guo Xinga didn't really want to clean up Hatan, the overall situation has been decided, and if he is willing to be in the limelight, he will be in the limelight!

However, it was not until the first company had entered the town for a long time that the gunfire in the town did not stop, and Acton sent people back to pull the artillery squad of the first company into the town.

"What's the situation?" Guo Xing'a is a little unsure, although it is the cautious Acton who leads the team, but these soldiers are all playing wild in the town of the Tianni sisters, why don't they just start robbing without forming a formation after entering the town!

"Wait, sir, I'll go in and have a look!" Seeing that Guo Xing'a had the intention of driving his horse forward, Bi Yuntao hurriedly stood up and entered the town with the guard squad of the infantry battalion. After all, the town is full of gunfire and is clearly not safe.

Bi Yuntao went in for a while, and finally a soldier came out to report the battle situation to Guoxing'a. Acton and Hatan have annihilated more than 200 defenders in the town, and the remnants of the defenders are only 100 people, but the people in the town have cooperated with the remnants and the Qing army to fight street battles. Although the Qing army suffered no casualties, the terrain in the town was complex and the advance was extremely slow.

Guoxing Awan never expected that the people of Taibai Town would be so tough. They did not flee and succumb like the people in the town of the Tianni sisters, nor did they fight back against the Taiping army like the people of Little Nanjing, but instead helped the old and the young to drag the wounded of the Taiping army and the Qing army to fight to the end. Street fighting is synonymous with trouble, although the enemy with only cold weapons, farm tools, and bricks is not to be feared, but it can also give the Qing army a headache.

The artillery of the two companies was pulled to the town, and Hatan even ordered people to send out all the horses that were in the way, but after more than an hour of fierce fighting, there was still not much progress. The sound of artillery in the town continued, and a large area of smoke and dust could be seen rising into the air, and Guo Xing'a guessed that Bi Yuntao, the deputy battalion commander who was sitting on the front line, had started the demolition business again.

"Let both the infantry and cavalry enter the town to clear and end the battle as soon as possible. In addition, let that bastard of Hatan get back to Lao Tzu, cavalry is not used for such a bad fight. "Although cavalry is now a far and close equipment with rifles, and weapons are more suitable for such battles, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry.

The defenders had already abandoned the wall, and the three companies easily smashed open the gate and entered the town, and Hatan also withdrew with three companies of cavalry. The cavalry was not damaged, but they were disgraced, and there were not a few who were smashed on the head and bleeding or had feathered arrows stuck in their shoulders. They were also too light on the enemy, and they rushed into the town with a golden sword, and because they passed by the collapsed wall, they also slowed down, and as soon as they entered the town, they fell into a situation of being besieged. The cavalry on the horse had too big a target, and there was no advantage in speed, and it was smashed on the head by the feather arrows, bricks and all kinds of sundries in the town.

"Five hundred word check!" When Goxinga met, he gave Hatan a whip.

"Shoot me to death!!" When Hartan heard about the inspection, he was more scared than shot.

"Get out!" Guo Xing'a is not in the mood to deal with him now.

Dense explosions rang out in the town, almost one after another, and Goxinga, holding the binoculars, was so anxious that he couldn't figure out where the explosion was coming from. After half an hour of exploding, the dusty Bi Yuntao returned to the front of Guoxinga.

"The remnants of the town have all been cleared, please enter the town!" Bi Yuntao was quite dignified and gave a salute to Guoxing.

Guo Xinga looked at him suspiciously and did not speak, and then drove the horse into the town with the others. After entering the town, Goxinga wanted to go out, because he didn't walk into Taibai Town, but into a ruin, into the Shura Hell.

Not a single intact house has been found in the town, and there are collapsed wreckage everywhere. Broken bodies were strewn all over the place, and many of the streets that had been fought fiercely were covered with blood and something that couldn't tell what it was. Some of the remaining clay figurines, who could not be seen to be ordinary people or the Taiping army, were being pulled out of some ruins by the Qing army and executed one by one. There were still women's wails and screams coming from some obscure corners, and Guo Xing'a didn't bother to pay attention to them, compared to the hell in front of him, those were trivial.

"This is ......" Guo Xing'a had the words "slaughtering the city" on his lips, but he couldn't say anything.

"It's all improved by adults." Bi Yuntao said happily.

"*......" Guo Xing's war horse stepped on something like internal organs and slipped a little, and Guo Xing'a, who was barely stable, lost his mind a little.
