Chapter 377: Hit, Hit

The military meeting did not last long, the commanders took the order and left, the happiest was Liu Yunshui, the cavalry all went out of the city, like a dragon returning to the sea eagle striking the sky, he could fly freely.

Zhou Bin also hurriedly went back to prepare, he stayed in Guguan for half a year, he was already familiar with the surrounding environment, taking advantage of Liu Chenggong's new defeat and the unstable morale of the army, with the help of the barrier of night, all his subordinate brothers were released.

After dawn, according to Li Zicheng's deployment yesterday, the people stationed at the head of the city, in addition to the soldiers of the ten hundred households of Ma Youshui, and the auxiliary soldiers of five hundred households, although the soldiers were not mixed, but the head of the city was so big, they could see each other's faces with each other, and it could be regarded as bringing the old with the new.

Of the other 500 auxiliary soldiers, there were only more than 100 rifles, and the soldiers took turns to train under the city.

In order to improve the actual combat effect, the officers of the 100 households changed the wooden target into a human shape, and the soldiers took the head, chest, and legs as the target, and divided them into three distances: 100 steps, 200 steps, and 400 steps, and practiced shooting accuracy.

After breakfast, the Ming army began to move, the soldiers went out of the camp tent in twos and threes, a while, they were fully equipped, and began to attack under the Guguan city, the ladder of the siege was still under the city, the soldiers only needed to set off lightly, the ladder left under the city yesterday, the Ming army did not take away, and the Mandate of Heaven army did not destroy, both sides seemed to be red-eyed warriors, and they only wanted to see victory or defeat on the battlefield.

The sword and shield soldiers were in front, guarding the whole army with a huge shield array, and the archers were hidden behind the shields, which was the usual siege tactics of the Ming army, and it has always been very effective against thieves.

Li Zi was founded in the city, and he was thoughtful in his heart.

"Governor, please leave the city, leave it to your subordinates!" Ma Youshui saw that the Ming army was about to attack, so he hurriedly came to Li Zicheng's side, and the governor left the dangerous place, so he could give it a go.

Li Zicheng shook his head and said: "No, in today's battle, the governor of Pontus will stay in the city, and I want to watch my brothers annihilate all the Ming troops outside the city!" ”

"Dadu Governor ......" Ma Youshui knew that once the Ming army approached the city wall, he would definitely use bows and arrows to open the way, if the Dadu Governor had any accidents, he would not be able to forgive himself even if he chopped it, "The subordinates guarantee that the Guguan is foolproof!" ”

"No, today's goal is not to hold the pass," Li Zicheng set his eyes on the Ming army outside the city, they began to attack, because there were too many people, the front part had already left the big tent dozens of steps, and the rear was still crowded in the camp tent and could not move, "Today's goal is to gather and annihilate this Ming army, and the governor of Pontus must be with his brothers!" ”

"The Governor ......"

"Don't say it again," Li Zicheng stretched out his hand to stop Ma Youshui, "Hurry back to your post, the Ming army is about to attack the city!" ”

Ma Youshui knew that he couldn't convince the Metropolitan Governor, so he had to sigh and call his own soldiers, "You must protect the Metropolitan Governor, if the Metropolitan Governor has something, you wait to see him!" ”

"Yes, General!" The pro-soldiers immediately commanded a small group of soldiers and gathered around Li Zicheng, but Li Zicheng glared at him: "The governor of Pontus has his own pro-soldiers, you stay here, what should General Ma do?" Why don't you go soon? ”

"The Governor ......"

"This is a military order, go quickly!" Li Zicheng waved his hand and drank the soldiers who retreated from the horse and water.

Ma Youshui had to concentrate and command the soldiers at the head of the city with peace of mind, and the governor was at the head of the city, with his brothers! How can such a morale-boosting thing not be fully applied?

He came to the soldier and shouted, "Brothers, the Governor is watching from the top of the city, and the Governor is with us!" ”

His own soldiers immediately understood, and one by one raised their arms and shouted, "The Governor is with us!" ”

"The Governor is with us!"

The gunners in the city were suddenly hoarse, and the Metropolitan Governor was at the head of the city, watching them, if they shot the enemy and made meritorious contributions, the Metropolitan Governor would definitely not be stingy with silver!

Ma Youshui suddenly remembered that Li Zicheng had newly become the pope of Catholicism, and many of the Mandate of Heaven army were Catholic believers, so he shouted again: "The Pope is with us!" ”

"The Pope is with us!"

"The Pope is with us!"

……

With such an encouragement, the soldiers at the head of the city suddenly became excited, eager to go out of the city with guns, kick the Ming troops outside the city one by one, and then soak urine to water their seven holes......

Li Zicheng laughed slightly, this time it was just to defend the city, not to attack, if the soldiers were too excited, the hit rate of the rifle might be reduced!

In later shooting competitions, the contestants wore earmuffs to prevent outside interference, and it seems that after this battle, these officers should be properly trained.

However, the morale of the Mandate of Heaven Army has risen, and Li Zicheng can't forcibly pour cold water, "morale can be boosted but not vented"!

Li Zicheng was very interested in Ma Youshui's slogan of "the Pope is with us", and if the war was in a stalemate, or when there was a war against the water, such a slogan might stimulate the last bit of energy of the believers.

Under the command of the officer, the Ming army rushed towards the city wall with a shout, although the speed was accelerated, but the formation was not chaotic, and the tall shield wall was crushing forward like a mountain, fortunately there were no soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army under the city!

After a period of agitation, the soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army have now calmed down, and their attention is almost on the Ming army outside the city, and most of the soldiers are silently calculating the distance of the Ming army.

The auxiliary soldiers of five hundred households are mixed with the soldiers of ten hundred households, which is the deliberate arrangement of Ma Youshui, and under the drive of the soldiers on both sides, the auxiliary soldiers will pass the adaptation period faster and take charge of themselves as soon as possible.

At a battlement near the north side of the eastern city wall, an auxiliary soldier was restless, although he tried his best to suppress it, but his hands and legs still did not obey the call, and always trembled slightly, he raised his eyes to look at the sides, and like a soldier, he put the barrel of his rifle on the battlement, and his arms maintained balance, but his legs trembled even more.

"Dog leftovers, what's wrong? Scared? Although a soldier observed the Ming army outside the city, the corner of his eye still saw everything.

"I ......" Gou Yu was speechless for a while, his face was flushed, if this was spread, how embarrassing would it be? Don't think about raising your head in the Heavenly Mandate Army in the future, he was in a hurry and hurriedly said, "Who said I was scared? I was just...... Just a little urgency! ”

"Didn't you just pee before you went to the city, and you couldn't hold it back so soon?" The veteran did not laugh at him, but showed a generous smile, "Dog leftover, the first time I went to the battlefield, fear was inevitable, when I went into battle for the first time, I almost peed my pants, but fortunately, the little flag officer was by my side......"

"You? Almost peed your pants for the first time? The dog's face instantly returned to calm, it turned out that the soldiers also came over like this!

The veteran stared at the outside of the city and asked casually, "Gouyu, are you going to the battlefield for the first time?" ”

"Yes, this is the first time to go to the battlefield," Gou Yu twisted his somewhat stiff neck, feeling that his arms were no longer as stiff as before, "but I trained in Ganzhou for half a year, came to Guguan, and trained the rifle for ten days." "In the eyes of the dog, after training for so long, he shouldn't be considered a recruit.

"No matter how long the training is, if you haven't been on the battlefield, it's in vain!" The veteran sympathized with him in his heart, and only trained his rifle for ten days, and he was about to go to the battlefield.

"Our little flag officer said that in today's battle, as long as I can shoot a Ming army, I will be considered a veteran, and if I have another chance to go into battle, I can join the soldiers, old brother, is this the case?" Since coming to Guguan, Gou Yu has been yearning for the day when he can become a soldier.

Soldiers are different from auxiliary soldiers, not only can they eat white flour steamed buns and drink delicious fresh soup, but also have silver, and soldiers have more opportunities to go into battle, and it is easier to get silver rewards.

"You will, you will become a soldier," the veteran grinned, "You kid has a good chance, today the Metropolitan Governor will watch the battle at the head of the city, as long as you shoot the Ming army, the Metropolitan Governor will definitely take credit for you!" ”

"Hey, the Metropolitan Governor is really at the head of the city," the dog looked at Li Zicheng subconsciously, and the Metropolitan Governor was indeed at the head of the city all the time, and he didn't feel excited, "Old brother, how can I shoot the Ming army?" How did you shoot the Ming army in the first place? ”

"It's very simple," the veteran smiled faintly, "If the Ming army is close to the city wall, you just have to keep an eye on a certain Ming army, and once he emerges from behind the shield, immediately pull the trigger!" ”

"Ah...... It's that easy? Gou Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong, "What if the Ming army doesn't show his head?" ”

"Don't show your head? How can it be? The veteran smiled: "Even if you don't show your head when you run away, can you still not show your head when you attack the city?" The shield is strong, but it can't cover the whole body, right? ”

"Oh, I see!" Gou Yu couldn't wait to salute the veteran, but he held the gun in both hands, and could only wait for the battle to end, at this moment, his heart was full of anticipation, and his legs were no longer trembling: Damn Ming Army, come quickly, Lao Tzu is going to shoot you, let the Metropolitan Governor see, Lao Tzu is going to step on your corpse and join the soldiers as soon as possible.

Outside Guguan City, the Ming army has entered the best range of 200 steps, but they are guarded by a shield wall, and they are quite tightly hidden, and the Heavenly Mandate Army can only use point fire to shoot individual outcropping soldiers.

This kind of shooting must be fast, accurate, and ruthless, and it is difficult for the auxiliary soldiers who have just been trained for only a few days to reach such a level, and they can only watch the soldiers around them make meritorious contributions.

Gou Yu listened to the words of the "old brother", knowing that his shooting skills could not be compared with the soldiers for the time being, so he pointed the muzzle of the gun to the side of the shield wall, put the upper right on the trigger, his eyes did not blink, and he stared at the Ming army on this side.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, and the Ming soldier who slightly exposed his right shoulder was suddenly shot in the shoulder strap, his right hand sank suddenly, the shield in front of him fell to the ground, and a hole close to one meter square appeared in the shield wall.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

This hollow immediately attracted a burst of gunfire, and several Ming soldiers behind the hollow immediately fell in a pool of blood until the soldiers behind filled it with shields.

"Hit, I hit!" The dog danced with his hands, holding the barrel of the gun with one hand, constantly shaking the gun, showing off his achievements to his companions.

Ma Youshui stood not far from Gou Yu, he stretched out his thumb to Gou Yu, and said: "Good job, the first time you go into battle, you can shoot the enemy soldiers, do a good job, I will ask the Metropolitan Governor for your credit!" ”
