Chapter 210: Bombardment

In front of the mountain and river shrine, the artillery of the rogue has been prepared. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although they are all small wolf machines, the 80 artillery pieces are also divided into two layers, and about 30 No. 1 small Franc machines with a pound of bullets are placed not far from the front of the Sheji altar, and these guns can hit about a mile or so, and the middle one has been holed.

Some of the remaining No. 2 and No. 3 small franc machines can shoot ten or five taels of projectiles, and some artillery pieces are still of the Falcon gun type, mounted on wheels or on a four-legged stool, with an angle of fire of minus 20 to 45 degrees, and the muzzle can be rotated 360 degrees, which is light and flexible.

These cannons were two or three hundred paces ahead and were about a hundred paces away.

However, regardless of the size of the artillery, each cannon had four gunners waiting, all of whom were once officers and soldiers, and after entering the camp, they enjoyed the treatment of the old battalion, and they all worked very hard.

At this time, the guns were piled up next to each cannon, and the igniters were all holding the fire ropes on standby.

Not far in front of them, the seductive song slowly sounded, and finally fluttered passionately, fluttering in the wilderness, all the way into the city of Suining.

"Kill cattle and sheep, prepare wine oars, open the gates of the city to meet the king, and when the king comes, he will not pay food."

"Eat his mother, eat her mother, eat not enough to break the king."

"Don't be bad, don't pay food, everyone has a happy life!"

But there were hundreds of people, mostly old people, women, and children, clapping their hands, standing densely, just singing to the polder.

They sang for a while, and a stern roar sounded in some galloping horse teams: "Let the people of Suining City know that our righteous army begs for tyranny, acts in heaven, advocates righteousness in heaven, and does not pay for food!" If the people in the city have heavenly reason, they should surrender the city as soon as possible. King Chuang has a strict order, every siege city, the surrenderer will not be killed, keep one day to kill three out of ten, two days to kill seven out of ten, keep three days, chickens and dogs do not stay! ”

After they finished roaring, the old men and women in the group sang carols again.

Their singing slowly attracted the hungry people in the rear.

It's so hard, it's precarious, I need something to numb myself, and I just hope that I can really live happily in the future.

They couldn't help singing wildly, and in the end, outside the city and inside the city, there was the same singing: "Open the city gate to meet the king, and the king will not pay for food when he comes!" ”

Zheng Shixin and others were dumbfounded: "What are they singing?" ”

Zhou Mingyuan said loudly: "Be cautious, you can't let them sing!" ”

Yang He looked around, there were quite a few strong people in the social army who were frightened, and some people had inexplicable expressions, and their hearts were full of joy.

Although the instability in the city was killed by him, the outside world threatened on the one hand, and tempted on the other.

Under the torment of this person's heart, he will indeed make irrational actions.

Listening to the singing, Yang He sneered: "It's really demagogic, if you don't pay for food, what does he eat with a million-strong army?" ”

He shouted: "The artillery under the city, tell them to shut up!" ”

……

In the gap in the middle of the first earthen wall.

The falcon cannon that hit ten taels of lead shot slowly pushed from the back of the earthen wall to the center, and the igniter hesitated for a moment, but still pointed to the position, aiming at the long handle in his hand, the bronze machine sounded, and the black pressure of the cannon muzzle was aimed at the pile of thieves who were singing.

Two hundred paces away, hundreds of people standing together, black pressing, this accuracy is still certain.

He looked at the crosshairs with the door, his fierce hand was certain, the handle stopped, and the igniter put the lead rope to the goose feather primer tube on the gun, and there was a sharp cannon sound, and the cannon body shook, and a long white smoke with a scorching fire light spewed out from the muzzle of the gun.

The screech of the cannonballs shook both the enemy and us, and the hundreds of people who sang were all shocked.

But the people's reaction was no faster than the cannonball, and the ten taels of lead shot came over, and it directly hit the dozen or so people in front and behind the team.

In an instant, the blood mist was like a drizzle, the flesh was flying, the stumps were fluttering, and a singing woman still had her mouth open, and the song was on the tip of her tongue, but the cannonball passed through her body, and she suddenly fell apart.

An old man wanted to escape, but he only turned sideways, and in the middle of his body was a huge hole, which was scorched and blackened, and it would not even bleed.

Several men and women stood in a daze behind the two, with one bright hole after another on their bodies, and several of them rolled to the ground with their eyes open.

Another woman screamed, her left arm gone, and blood splattered like a fountain.

Behind her, the body of a man swayed, his head shredded, and the blood mist on his severed neck was soaring.

"Boom!"

A falcon cannon that shot five taels of lead shot also fired a shot, and a group of rogue horses were galloping and roaring loudly, intimidating the soldiers and civilians in the city, and even swaggering into a hundred paces.

Suddenly the cannonball is coming, and a horse thief is calling: "Chickens and dogs do not leave ......"

Five or two shells hit him in the mouth, and his head became something like a fragment, and some white flowers and teeth were still flying in the air in the blood mist and flesh.

There was also a falcon cannon that struck a gang of thieves, piercing the belly of several horses, and one of the horse thieves rolled on the ground and howled miserably, surrounded by fine pieces of flesh, and both of his thighs were broken, and Sensen's white bones were attached to the minced flesh.

"Ahh

The old man who sang hundreds of women screamed and ran back.

There are also those rogue horse teams who are roaring and intimidating, and they are also panicked and busy turning around.

They shook the heavens and the earth, and the song of "no food" was suffocating.

In the altar of the mountains and rivers, Wang Lung couldn't help scolding: "This is also a good deal, what a dog official!" ”

Li Guo and Yuan Zong looked cold, and the two of them glanced at each other and nodded.

Yuan Zongdi shouted: "Order, the artillery starts to fire!" ”

……

Two cannon shots rang out in front of the front, one after the other, and the artillery in the front and rear of the rogue fired first, and the shells in front hit the wilderness in front of the low wall, stirring up a cloud of dust.

A cannonball in the rear, but directly hit the polder tower, "bang", the sound of sparse wooden planks breaking, the broken boards and sawdust flying everywhere, it seems that there are some flames rising, the social soldiers on the wall screamed, all of them are far away from the city tower.

Then the rogue artillery stopped, but it was adjusting the angle, and suddenly the cannon sound was endless, like lightning and thunder, and the rogue eighty artillery pieces, one of which emitted fierce gunsmoke, and a large stream of thick smoke rose up, instantly covering this piece of artillery position.

The terrible whistling sound continued, and the thieves' large and small cannons bombarded the low wall and the polder wall like a torrential rain, Li Guo, Yuan Zongdi and others looked at it, the gunpowder smoke in front of them was filled, and on the opposite side of the official army, the smoke and dust stirred up by the cannons were a piece of dust, and the screams over there could be faintly heard.

A few of their cannons seemed to be dumb.

Wang Lung laughed: "Let you fight artillery, dog officers and soldiers, how can you compare with the eighty cannons of our righteous army?" Haha......"

"Fire!"

The thief gunner cooperated, and after firing a shot, one pulled out the bolt, one put out the fired bolt, the other filled in the new bolt, and the person who pulled the bolt stuffed the bolt into it, and the last person lit it.

They are very fast, and the Franc cannon has a very good advantage in heat dissipation, not compared to the Hongyi cannon to shoot three shots to stop, the Franc cannon can fire one or twenty shots in a row and then dissipate heat.

The sound of cannons came one after another, and the cannons weighing a pound and weighing a few taels poured down to the opposite side like rain, and the air was full of the terrible whistling sound of cannons.

"Boom!"

Minister Yang stood behind the earthen wall, and kept looking out from the lookout hole, and a cannon weighing ten taels hit the outside of the earthen wall, not far from the place where he was looking.

The thick walls seemed to shake, and a large amount of dust fell on everyone's heads, making everyone disgraced, and Minister Yang coughed even louder.

And behind the earthen wall, the first general soldier sat on the ground, even the artillery was dragged behind the wall, many people were covered with thick dust, and everyone showed a frightened look on their faces, the thieves' cannons were too dense, fortunately there was an earthen wall to block them.

"Boom!"

Another cannon weighing one pound hit the second earthen wall again, the soil splashed, the smoke and dust were filled, and several war horses behind the wall neighed uneasily, Qian Sanniang hurriedly comforted the mount, and looked at the top of her head with some horror.

Li Ruwan beside her shrank behind the wall and muttered, "Damn, bullying us didn't make a ...... Damn, I won't let you go......"

And next to them, the cavalry team and the sentinel team all shrank desperately behind the wall, watching in horror as the cannonballs above the wall whizzed by, hitting the ground behind them and stirring up puffs of dust.

Some of the soft ground were all made out of large pits, and some cannons fell into the trenches of the city wall, splashing a lot of water.

Jiu Ye heard the sound of the cannon and stopped for a while, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's almost, the thieves have been fighting for ten ......"

As soon as the words fell, I heard the thunderbolt and thunder, and the terrible whistling of cannonballs.

"Boom!"

A cannonball came heavily, hitting the battlement wall not far from Yang He's side, this rammed earth battlement wall immediately collapsed a large piece, fortunately a large number of mud bags and earth baskets were piled up behind, and the defense here was fine.

However, a large amount of splashed mud and dust sprinkled Yang He and the others, and Gao Qifeng's official uniform in the county was turned to ashes.

Zheng Shixin, the chief bookkeeper, screamed even louder, and Liu Zunhe, the county minister, was silent, but he was trembling, and his face was as pale as paper.

Cannonballs whistled, and many of them hit the towers, where a raging fire had already ignited.
