"Bang!"

A cannonball roared past the city wall of Yangzhou and fell into the Qing army formation at an initial velocity of 1,800 m/s, exploding and blooming.

After landing on the ground, a fireball was instantly formed, with a radius of about three meters, and there were about a dozen Qing soldiers covered by the fireball, and they were burned into charred corpses in an instant.

The shock wave formed by the gunpowder explosion covered a radius of about 20 meters, and most of the Qing troops within this range were shocked to the point that their ears roared, and in serious cases, their internal organs were burning, and their mouths and noses were bleeding.

Along with the shock wave, there were countless steel balls and small steel arrows in the bullet casing, which exploded in the form of scattered flowers of the heavenly maiden and flew in all directions. All the Qing troops who were hit were all torn in armor, their skin was open, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

This shell fell into the dense Qing army's formation, killing at least 50 people and wounding no less than 50.

The generals of the Qing army, such as Sadu, who was commanding not far away, were taken aback, and the glasses in their hands fell to the ground: "Damn, what's going on?" ”

Some Qing army generals thought that the red-clothed cannon had exploded, and scolded and said: "Grandma's, could it be that the barrel of the cannon was blown up?" It looks like at least a dozen brothers died. ”

"Bang!"

Another cannonball flew into the Qing army's formation, and landed right next to a squatting red-coated cannon, dismembering the red-coated cannon that was ready to go, the barrel was deformed, and the two wheels also flew out.

The Qing troops who were surrounding the red-coated cannons and preparing to fill the shells did not even have time to scream, and the stumps of the explosion flew around, and fifty or sixty people were killed and wounded in an instant.

Sadu and the generals of the Qing army reacted this time, and almost at the same time exclaimed: "Oh...... Not good, this is a shell of the Ming army! Fly out of town! ”

Before Sadu could finish speaking, another cannonball whistled and landed about ten meters behind him.

The loud explosion cracked his eardrums, his internal organs rolled, and a mouthful of blood gushed down his throat. The whole body was surrounded by a heat wave, and I felt that the whole person was almost roasted.

Raindrops of steel balls rained down, hitting Sadu's eyebrows and cheeks, piercing his armor and burrowing into his body, and his whole body flew up......

The imposing Qing army was completely stunned by the bombing, and they all hugged their heads and lay on the ground: "Oh no, General Sadu was blown up!" ”

The Ming army on the north city wall was struggling to support under the fierce artillery fire of the Qing army, and saw that it was about to be defeated, but the second monk was puzzled by this sudden change, and they all subconsciously stopped their movements.

The artillery of the Ming army had a limited range, at most it could only shoot about 1,000 meters, and it could not threaten the core position of the Qing army's artillery at all.

But at this moment, they witnessed a succession of shells flying into the Qing army's formation, killing countless enemies, blowing up the Qing army's red-coated artillery, killing the Qing army's artillery commander, blowing up the Qing army's marshal flag, and blowing up the Qing army's corpses flying all over the sky......

This shell not only has a long range, but also is incredibly powerful.

The number of people killed and wounded by the shells of the red-coated cannons ranged from five or six to more than a dozen, and the number of casualties formed by the "explosive group" formed by the shells flying out of the city was probably about 100.

Within the scope of the explosion, there was a river of blood, and there were no dead bodies.

The Ming troops on the city wall were boiling, and they all raised their weapons in their hands and cheered.

"It's the cannonball fired by the ironclad beast!"

"That ironclad beast is his own man, and he is our ally of the Ming Dynasty!"

Liu Zhaoji, who was directing the battle, couldn't care about the blood on his face, raised the telescope with a broken lens in his hand and looked out of the city, witnessing the heavy casualties of the Qing army, and couldn't help but be deeply shocked.

"This, this...... The cannonball fired by this iron-clad beast is like a thunderbolt from the sky, and its power is no less than that of thunder from the sky!

Five shells fell into the Jiannu formation, killing and wounding hundreds, nearly 10 artillery pieces were damaged, and several prisoners were killed...... This, isn't this God blessing the Ming? ”

"I'll see!"

Deputy General Zhuang Zigu took the telescope in Liu Zhaoji's hand and looked at it, and was also deeply shocked when he saw the clear picture of casualties. The corpses all over the ground were all over the field, which made Zhuang Zigu, a fierce general, fearful.

"Fuck me, this cannonball is too powerful, if you blow up our city wall, just come with so many shots, I'm afraid Yangzhou City won't be able to keep it!"

The "artillery consultant" Chen Yujie next to him is the nephew of Xu Guangqi, a former cabinet minister, who loves invention since he was a child, and has been immersed in the artillery industry for many years.

After the fall of BJ, Chen Yujie fled to Nanjing to join Shi Kefa, was reused, and was promoted to "Secretary of the Military Department", specializing in the artillery of the Southern Ming army, and was also following Liu Zhaoji to defend the city wall at the moment.

Chen Yujie listened to the exclamations of Liu Zhaoji and Zhuang Zigu, and silently took out a small self-made telescope from his arms and looked at the Qing army, and was immediately shocked.

"Shhh...... Chen has been studying artillery for 40 years, and even once visited Hongyi, which is entrenched in GD, like this kind of artillery, but it is unheard of! ”

Liu Zhaoji put away the binoculars and instructed the soldiers around him: "Immediately find out where the ironclad beast came from?" Is there someone in there? Who is the controller? ”

"Yes!"

The soldier said yes and turned away.

Lin Yu manipulated Merkava to fire five shells, and he didn't know how many Qing troops were killed, anyway, the Qing troops outside the city were densely packed, so it was estimated that they could kill one or two hundred people, right?

To Lin Yu's surprise, after five shells, the Qing army outside the north city wall almost stopped attacking, and there was no more cannonball, only sporadic gunfire and stray arrows flew up to the city.

However, the cannon still rumbled outside the eastern, western, and southern city walls, and although the Qing troops who were not aware of the situation were also frightened by the extraordinary explosions, they still did not stop attacking and continued to attack the city under the command of their respective generals.

"Grandma's, don't see the coffin, don't shed tears, and then come to the east for five shots!"

Lin Yu, who was sitting in the cockpit, immediately clicked the screen, turned the barrel to the east, clicked the launch button, and five more grenades flew out of the city wall with a roar and landed in the Qing army's formation.

When the shells came, people turned on their backs, flesh and blood flew everywhere, artillery was destroyed, ghosts cried wolves, and at least three or four hundred casualties.

In the face of the huge lethality, the deputy commander of the Qing army, who was in charge of attacking the eastern city wall, hurriedly ordered to stop the attack, first investigate what was going on, and sent someone to report to the artillery battalion commander Nikambel.

The main function of the tank is to attack positionally, so the range is not too far, and the range of the Merkava tank controlled by Lin Yu is only about three kilometers.

Lin Yu's location was only a few hundred meters away from the East City Gate and not far from the North City Wall, so he could easily attack the Qing army in both the east and north directions.

Yangzhou City is vast and majestic, more than 20 miles long from east to west, and seven or eight miles from north to south, but Lin Yu did not dare to fire artillery in the west and south directions, lest the shells fall into the city and hurt innocent people.

The Ming army's inquiry sounded on the city wall: "Dare to ask who is in control of the ironclad beasts?" Mr. Liu asked you to come out to talk, but it was my Ming soldier? ”

"In the future, whether I draw a lottery or buy supplies from the store, I will need gold coins, and I can get gold coins by making others feel emotional about me, and this is the time for me Lin Yu to become famous."

As soon as Lin Yu thought of this, he immediately opened the cockpit and came out, and said in a loud voice: "I am the deputy guard Lin Yu Lin Zhenjiang!" ”

Lin Yu's position is the deputy garrison of Yangzhou, and he was only appointed with Shi Kefa's light, and he is insignificant among the generals in Yangzhou City, and there are not many soldiers who know him.

But as the nephew and son-in-law of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and the Governor of Yangzhou, the name Lin Yulin Zhenjiang was like thunder in the Yangzhou defenders.

"It turned out to be Lin Gongzi, it's really good!"

"Young Master Lin is mighty, where did you get the ironclad beast? Could it be God bless the Ming? ”

"Lin Gongzi Shenwu, it depends on you whether you can hold Yangzhou City, I hope you will attack Jiannu and avenge your brothers!"

There was jubilation on the city wall, like a tsunami in the mountains, and the Ming army, which was almost in a desperate situation, burst out with great fighting spirit and ignited the hope of victory.
