"Bohai children, avenge the Great Yuan Kingdom and Emperor Gao......"

When the armored Bohai people approached the two prismatic forts on the west side of the Swallow Fort, a Bohai Mouke suddenly shouted loudly.

The Bohai armor soldiers who followed him also roared: "Avenge Emperor Gao!" Kill! ”

Most of these armorers are the children of the right surname of Bohai. The Zhou State not only destroyed their Bohai Great Yuan Kingdom, but also seized their industries along the Liao River. caused all of them to be ruined, and they had to go to the Jurchens to survive.

This is a national hatred and family feud together!

So today, there is no need for Ah Guda and Wanyan Zongbi to mobilize, and these Bohai people will all charge with red eyes.

But rushing at it, it's a little wrong, as if you've rushed into a trap!

The design of the fortress is very murderous! Taking the Swallow Fort as an example, the prismatic exit of the fort extending from any of the adjacent two corners of the eight-sided fort will form an inverted trapezoidal shape with one side of the eight-sided fort.

Because the front of the fort was too narrow, it was almost a sharp head, and it was impossible to attack. So if you want to attack the enemy of the bastion, you must rush into this inverted trapezoid.

Once inside the inverted trapezoid, they are under the crossfire of the defenders on the front and on the high walls on both sides!

There are no dead ends, and there is no way to dodge!

Li Xiaozhong deployed 2 6-kilogram cannons on each prismatic out-of-fort, and another 2 6-kilogram cannons were placed on the wall of the eight-sided fort.

Since Wanyan Zongbi only chose two adjacent prismatic out-of-forts as the targets of the attack, Li Xiaozhong transferred the two cannons of the city wall to the corresponding positions.

The artillery on the prismatic fort numbered West 1, which was the target of the attack, and the adjacent West 2 and North 1 prismatic forts, were also adjusted. To ensure that the enemy in the two "inverted trapezoids" would be bombarded by crossfire from four 6-pound guns from three directions - the artillery placed on the stunned out-of-fort was not fixed, but a field gun that could move. And there are more gun emplacements on the fort than cannons (cannons are still too few), so they can be deployed flexibly.

A total of 8 cannons were placed on the three forts and two walls, all of which had been loaded with shotguns, the so-called iron sand shells.

The name is iron sand bullets, but they are actually filled with iron balls, wrapped in soft deerskin, and stuffed into the barrel of the gun.

The gun emplacements used to erect the cannons were also carefully designed, with the gun emplacements being raised a bit higher, and the battlements in front of the muzzles were low, so that the cannons could fire downwards.

In addition, there is a cover made of wood and sandbags above the cannon to prevent the cannon from being smashed by stones thrown by the opponent's launcher, and it also has the function of protecting against rain.

"Fire!"

"Ignition!"

"Boom ......"

At the command of the commanders of each gun, the line of fire was ignited, the shotgun was ejected from the chamber, and the cannon body jerked back. Under the action of gunpowder deflagration, countless tiny iron beads were swept away by the huge thrust like dense raindrops.

It's the crossfire of four cannons fired at the same time from three directions! Deadly orbs of iron fell from the sky, unstoppably striking helmets, shoulder pads, or round shields on the heads of the Bohai people.

Then there is the crushing of the human head, or the iron ball penetrates the human body from somewhere, and the bones, internal organs, and flesh are all shattered...... No matter if the head is broken or the internal organs are broken, they don't even scream, and they die without screaming. However, there were also some Bohai warriors who were more miserable, broke their arms or legs, fell to the ground, and rolled and screamed in their own blood, but the cry did not last long, and there was no sound.

The first wave rushed into two inverted trapezoidal areas and six mok, with a total of 1,800 Bohai ironclad soldiers. All of them are elites trained in Zhou-style warfare, and they are also "equipped with three battles", and when using spears and bows and arrows, they can completely resist the impact of armored cavalry.

If it is an infantry duel, the elite soldiers of the Zhou State are not necessarily the opponents of this group of Bohai people who are full of national hatred and hatred.

But in the face of "truth", they are just a ball of flesh and blood, a group of cannon fodder, no different from the group of mixed food in the Great Song Dynasty.

So the warriors, armed with iron armor, swords and shields and full of hatred, were completely crushed in the first round of fire from 8 6 close guns.

A total of 2,500 cast iron balls were contained in the eight shotguns, and with the power of gunpowder, the two inverted trapezoidal areas were turned into a complete hell of death. The Bohai warriors, known as "three people into a tiger", were defeated piece by piece.

The Bohai people who were lucky enough to escape the catastrophe were also frightened stupid by the sudden blow, how could they not understand why after a few loud noises, the tower-like Bohai warriors shot warm blood and fell to the ground in various strange postures!

Is this a demon?

"Boom ......"

Before these frightened Bohai ironclad soldiers could react, the second round of shelling began. There were still 8 shotguns and 2,500 iron balls falling from the sky, sweeping down a lot of the Bohai people who were standing there in a daze. Then came the third salvo......

After the third round of shotgun shooting, the remaining Bohai ironclad soldiers could no longer hold back, and they didn't care about the strict military orders, and after they didn't know who let out a miserable scream, they turned around one after another and ran like crazy, leaving behind dead bodies, weapons, and ladders to climb the city......

At this time, outside the "inverted trapezoidal death zone", the Bohai people carrying bows and arrows were also frightened and stupid, and they all stood there stupidly, and no one dared to take another step forward.

The ironclad soldiers in front of them have all pounced, do they still have to send these people in leather armor to death?

If you don't go up, you won't be able to shoot arrows in this position! The effective range of the bow and arrow is only a few dozen paces, and now it is still shot from the bottom up, and the range is even closer.

And the effective range of the shotgun is 200 steps, and these cannons are still erected at a high place, and there is a bonus in range.

How do the Bohai archers fight? It is impossible to shoot an arrow at a distance of 200 paces, and if you have to go to a distance of 100 or a few dozen paces to shoot again, people will fire at least three salvos of shotguns...... Will there be any gasps then?

"Dangdangdang......"

Just when the Bohai archers did not dare to advance and could not retreat, Wanyan Zongbi, who was supervising the battle on a lookout car in the rear, finally ordered Mingjin.

Of course, Jin Wushu is not a fool, otherwise he would not have survived Zhao Gou's killing of Fei Yanhe in history.

Therefore, after the opponent's three shotgun bombardments knocked down at least 800 Bohai heroes, Wanyan Zongbi understood that this strange fortress in front of him could not be captured by himself at all!

It may be possible to breach the castle by besieging it or digging tunnels and blasting it, but it is impossible to break the castle by storming.

……

"Father, if you can't beat it, it's not worth it...... Now you can only try digging tunnels and blasting. ”

When Yan Zongbi ran to report to Aguda with a gloomy face, the founding emperor of the Dajin Kingdom had a calm face, as if it was not his own army that was frustrated, but the enemy's soldiers and horses.

"Digging tunnels helps?" Ah Guda smiled, "Isn't the tactic of digging tunnels and blasting to attack the city created by Wu Haogu?" Do you think Zhou Jun will be unprepared? ”

"This ......" Yan Zongbi turned his head to look at Swallow Castle, his brows furrowed.

He and Aguda were located a long way from Swallow Fort, a full 1,500 paces. The reason why they were so far away was because they were afraid of being bombarded by the artillery of the Zhou army.

And Jin Bing's brigade is also far away from Swallow Fort, and the nearest one is 1,200 steps.

If you want to choose a relatively safe distance to start digging tunnels, you have to go up and down at least seven or eight hundred steps, right? That's an astonishing amount of work!

There is also a problem, because the artillery of the Zhou army is too powerful and the design of the castle is tricky, so the moat of the moat is under the full control of the Zhou army......

In other words, once the Zhou army discovered the approximate location of the tunnels excavated by the Jin soldiers, they could deepen the trenches in the corresponding area to block the tunnels. And by burying the pot and listening to the ground, you can find the general direction of the tunnel dug by the golden soldiers!

Therefore, the method of burying gunpowder in tunnels is very unreliable for Swallow Fort City.

Wanyan Zongbi shook his head and said, "It's impossible to dig a tunnel...... This city is very close to the Mandarin Duck Valley, and it is impossible to cut off the water source. Then there will be only a siege! ”

The swallow fort is next to the north bank of the mandarin duck luo, and the two forts in the south of the city are less than 100 steps away from the mandarin duck luo, and the mandarin duck luo is completely within the range of artillery shotguns.

Therefore, it is impossible for Jin Bing to cut off the water source of Swallow Fort with a shotgun.

The water source can't be cut off, the crypt blasting can't work, and there are too many dead people in the storm, so the only way to think about it is to besiege the city.

But the siege ...... How long will the siege last?

"How many people are in the castle of the Zhou people? And how much grain and grass are there? Ah Guda asked his son, "How much do we have to eat?" How long can a siege last? ”

"Father, do we want to withdraw from the army?" Wanyan Zongbi took a breath, "This is not good for the teacher......"

Ah Gu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hundreds of dead people are nothing!" If the city is fortified and protracted, it will be really shameless!

Order, withdraw the troops! ”

"Du Bo Ji ......"

"Try again!"

"Let us Jurchen warriors get on!"

There were also a few Jurchen generals around who did not give up and opened their mouths to ask for battle.

Ah Guda's face sank: "The tiger's butt has been touched, and the tiger has scratched a paw, just know that this can't be touched!" Do you have to be bitten to death by a tiger? Even if we can kill this tiger, what can we do? You have also seen the castle of the Zhou people, it is simply hastily formed, let's go out and tens of thousands of people to pounce on this city, there are many such castles in the entire Zhou country, how many 10,000 are there in our Jurchens? ”

As soon as Wanyan Agu said that, the Jurchen generals were silent. It's not that Ah Guta's prestige is high, but that this is reasonable.

The Jurchen group can flourish, and its internal must be realistic and reasonable. Otherwise, with their little capital, one will be tossed and lost if they are not careful, and they will rise up a fart!

"Du Bo is extremely strong, what should we do next?" Wanyan Wu begged to buy.

Ah Gu smiled, "First go northeast, go to the thousands of miles of pine forest, and then turn back to the west!" It's time for us to go to the Hetao grassland! ”
