Chapter 92: Wang Qi 2

Fei Jing stood at the forefront, and when she saw him fall from the pile of corpses, the Chu pawns behind were shocked.

"Save the general, save the general!!" Someone shouted. The Chu army's shouts rushed to snatch the fallen concubine, and the Qin people heard that it was a general who fell, and they came to rob people regardless of their lives. However, the spear in his hand can't be decapitated, and if he has a short Ge in his hand, he may have already cut off Fei Jing's head.

The Chu army pounced on Youjing, and the Qin army also pounced on Youjing, and people on both sides piled up people, pressing layer after layer. The bottom is in turmoil, and the top is fighting hard. The Qin army suffered, they only had spears in their hands, but spears could not be used in close combat. The Chu army, who abandoned their spears and used their swords and shields, eventually killed them and retreated, and then dug up the unconscious concubine from the crowd.

But at this time, the Zhao army on the other side of the circle formation had already collapsed, and in the battle of exchanging human lives for human lives, the Zhao people who had not been trained in strict spear formations and sword and shield could not fight the Qin army. Countless Qin soldiers rushed into the circle formation, and the people in the formation shouted and neighed, and there was chaos. They have only one goal, that is, to kill the king of Jing in the car, as long as the king of Jing is captured or killed, they can worship the marquis and eat ten thousand households.

"Guardian Hou! Escort Hou! Chu Jun shouted. The Qin people came like a flood, and only more than fifty heavy cavalry knights blocked the flood, and the battle was not a fight of iron and blood, but a collision game. The flood in front died under the knight's sword, but the flood in the rear continued unaffected, and they stepped on the corpse of the former, and finally crossed the thin embankment that blocked them, completely submerging the embankment and everything behind it.

"Father's β€”β€”!" Yi drunk's eyes were split, and he watched the Qin people drown the chariot, and he wanted to step forward but was blocked by countless people.

"The formation is broken!" Xiang Chao killed the Qin people and didn't dare to get close at all, he laughed while killing the enemy, he didn't believe that his army would be wiped out here, but when he turned around and saw the torrent of the Qin people rushing into the formation, he sighed helplessly.

"Our army is dead." Li Qi turned back like the generals, and he suddenly regretted that he did not die in the south of Xianyang City. If you die there, you can at least leave a name in history, and if you die here, you will only become a lonely ghost.

'Boom! The thunder rang out in the sky, and it seemed to be near the ears.

'Boom, ......boom, boom, boom...... ......, boom, boom' The thunder that Li Qi thought sounded rhythmically, it completely covered the drums of the Qin people and the shouts on the battlefield, and every roar made people's hearts tremble.

The heavens and the earth were already dark, but the darker it was, the more conspicuous the fire that erupted when the cannon was fired, and in the firelight and gunsmoke, the royal flag that Yu Jing had just seen was fluttering in the wind. On the wide flag, the three-headed colorful phoenix with a proud neck and a double flower crown on its head stares at everything in front of it, and disdains everything in front of it.

"Great, great, it's the king......" Xiang Chao, who was the first to turn around, saw that the three-headed phoenix that was unusually independent and his whole body instantly stiffened, and the Qin people's spear stabbed him in the chest, and he didn't realize it.

"King!" Yi Drunk, whose eyes were already full of tears, also saw the royal flag and the immortal phoenix.

"Brother Wang, it's Brother Wang, it's Brother Wang!" The bear that Jing Fei had been protecting jumped up. After all, he is a child, he wants to be a hero, but he is still afraid of death.

"Actually, it's the King of Jing." What the Chu army can see, the Qin army can naturally see.

From the first cannon shot, Zhang Han saw the three-headed phoenix flag that he would never forget. It's not because the phoenix has three heads, but because the phoenix's eyes: disgusted, arrogant, and cold, as if there is nothing in ......the world worth looking at and no character worth caring about. At this moment, he realized what Xiong Han lacked, he didn't have this kind of bearing to look down on the world.

Zhang Han looked at the three-headed phoenix flag in a daze, while Wang Ao's Lu Lijing stared at the roaring artillery. With each shell, the muzzle of the cannon spits out flames more than a few feet long and thick smoke. The Chu army often had new weapons that had never been seen in the Chinese world, but never had that weapon shaken his nerves like artillery.

These weapons were lined up in a row, three feet apart from each other, and one after the other roared, and the iron bullets they fired flew about 180 paces before landing on solid ground, and then jumped high again, and flew another section to hit the Qin army array that was blocking the advance of the Chu army. As if defeated, the Qin army in the array was disemboweled, with severed limbs and bodies, and the dense array was punched out of a deep ditch.

The Qin army that was bombarded did not react at first, and then began to panic, and the soldiers and soldiers behind the formation hurriedly pressed and stabbed and beheaded the Qin soldiers who retreated without permission. Their heads were picked up by the military officers, but the shouts of the military officers were muffled by the rumbling cannons, and the Qin soldiers who could not advance or retreat were panicked, and some even closed their eyes and waited for death.

"The whole battalion listens to the order, enter! Enter! Artillery Captain Wu Kong gave the order. Under the king's banner, the artillery was in front, the infantry was in the center, and the cavalry stood on the sides. The valley was narrow, and the water was divided into it, and a battalion of sixteen fifteen-pound guns crowded the valley floor. At this moment, the soldiers led by Yi Hou and Li Qi are surrounded by the Qin army, and their own army must advance quickly to defeat the Qin army in front of them.

The order was given, and the Lifu behind the artillery immediately stepped forward, and they lifted the large frame and pushed the artillery forward with all their might. The fifteen-pound cannon alone has more than 500 kilograms of cannon body, and the carriage frame that supports it also has more than 500 kilograms. The pulling strength of a human horse is not as good as that of a horse, and the weight of a horse in field conditions is more than 200 kilograms, while the weight of a human is no more than 30 kilograms.

The 1,100-kilogram fifteen-pound cannon theoretically required 36 people to push it. The artillery is limited in size, and so many people simply can't focus on it. Fortunately, the bottom of the valley was a solid flat land, and with the help of the selected Lifu in the army, less than twenty people moved the artillery.

The artillery was originally more than two hundred steps away from the Qin army's array, but now Lifu wants to move the artillery to within two hundred steps, preferably one hundred and fifty paces, this distance can fire shotguns.

The Lifu let out all sorts of screams, and Xiong Jing heard a pain in his eyes. The loading capacity of the two clippers was limited, and he could only choose between a fifteen-pound cannon and a ten-pound cannon. Fortunately, the fifteen-pound cannon was within the weight of six Di horses, otherwise he would not have been able to chase after him quickly - the day after Wei Yi knew the plan to attack Qin, the carrier pigeon flew out of Xianyang, and Xiong Jing, who didn't care about so much, immediately left Yingdu with an artillery battalion and dozens of knights, but it was still a step too late.

"What about our army?" The Chu army was pushing forward the weapons that made a thunderous sound, and the foot soldiers and cavalry with spears behind them also slowly moved forward, and Zhang Han, who had come to his senses, asked Wang Ao. He had never seen such a weapon that emitted a huge roar and terrifying firelight, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all when he saw that every time the Qin Army array roared and a gap was punched.

"Attack it quickly!" Even if he had never seen gunpowder or artillery, Wang Ao knew that this was the best time to attack. It doesn't matter if he doesn't know the principle of the weapon, he has already seen the function of the weapon, at least part of it. This weapon was terrifying when it roared, but now it has stopped roaring.

"Good." King Jing appeared in front of him, but Zhang Han preferred that he not appear. He shouted a word of kindness, then waved his hand and ordered. The drum was once again in a big way, and the Qin pawn, who had been frightened by the artillery just now, screamed as hard as he could at this time and began to attack forward.

"The whole battalion listens to the order, stop!" The Qin army had already attacked, and the artillery commanders and gunners were unmoved. After Liv lowered the gun mount, they methodically divided the front and rear of the artillery.

"The whole battalion listens to the order: the goal is forward. Shotgun, rapid fire! There was a hint of nervousness in Wukong's voice, and he finally remembered that the king had said that actual combat and training were completely different, and this was the case now, and his legs were shaking constantly when he gave the order.

Wu Kong trembled, and Xiong Jing was also extremely nervous. Three years of artillery training was the era of curved shooting, the position was after the infantry, and the artillery in the era of direct fire of smoothbore guns was definitely more than three years old. It's like learning to drive, driving school can get a driver's license in two months, but to become a veteran driver who is not afraid of danger and calmly plays the steering wheel before crashing, it will take several years.

On the battlefield, the enemy rushed to their deaths, and the bloody and life-and-death packages threatened every gunner, and at this time, everything learned could be forgotten in an instant, and then enter a state of hypoglycemia: pale, panicked, trembling, fainting and falling to the ground.

Fortunately, no matter how urgent it was, Xiong Jing did not forget to give candy to the artillery commanders and artillery commanders.

"The whole company listens to the order: the target is forward. Shotgun, rapid fire! ”

"The whole company listens to the order: the target is forward. Shotgun, rapid-fire ......"

As soon as Wu Kong's voice fell, the commander of the artillery company repeated the order to the commanders of the artillery. When the commander repeated the order, the cotton brush of the No. 1 gunner had reached into the chamber of the gun, extinguishing the flames and removing the ashes; The shotgun was joined to the kit, and after the second gunner stuffed the shotgun into the chamber, the putter of the fourth gunner quickly retracted it to the bottom of the boring. According to the firing table, the No. 5 gunner had turned to the appropriate firing angle, and when he saw the No. 6 gunner poking through the charge bag and pouring in the gunpowder, he shouted: "Readyβ€”β€”! ”

"Put!" The Qin army was rushing, and it was getting closer and closer, and the artillery commander quickly ordered the cannon to be fired.

'Boom-' Shotguns fired a volley of firelight, and the shotguns that flew out of the muzzle of the guns killed the oncoming Qin troops, and they either splashed blood or suddenly fell down as they ran.

With the sound of cannons and the shouts of the Qin people, the gunners had no time to watch the results of the battle, but quickly and mechanically repeated the previous action: extinguishing the embers, removing the ashes, stuffing the shotguns, retreating into the bottom of the chamber, puncturing the cartridge, pouring the gunpowder, and finally pulling the arquebus.

Normal shelling fires only one round per minute in order to cool the gun body, and in case of emergency, shotguns can reach four rounds per minute. Dense shotguns flew sideways in front of the muzzle, and the Qin army, which was accustomed to fighting with cold weapons, was forced by inertia, and still did not retreat when they rushed to the muzzle of the gun seventy paces. Flesh and steel are engaged in a battle of life and death at this distance, on one side is the faster and faster Chu gunners, on the other hand is less and less Qin soldiers who charge forward, finally, when the Chu gunners began to fire double shotguns, the Qin army, which had long been out of array, whimpered, and the whole line was defeated.

"General Ma!" Xiong Jing, whose palms were full of sweat, pretended to smile relaxedly, and looked at the rider Ma Wei not far away.

The others were still in a trance, but Ma Wei was woken up by Xiong Jing's shout. "The last general respectfully obeys the order!" He made a way and led the cavalry into pursuit.
