Chapter 219: Bombardment of Dusong Pass

The third watch cooks and the fifth watch sets off, which is a bit exaggerated, but this morning, Qin Hao did get up early, but Mo Daojun traveled early, and there were even more early pedestrians, and when he got up, almost everyone got up. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Among them, including Ma Kuo, who was stationed outside the city, Ma Kuo got up earlier than ever today, just last night, when he received Qin Hao's order to attack, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

After breakfast, everyone gathered in front of the sand table made by Zhuge Yu, this sand table was made in great detail, and every grass and tree on the closed was very clear.

"Now on the Dusong Pass, there are only 30,000 soldiers and horses left, mainly distributed in the pass, on both sides of the pass, is a high mountain, there are 3,000 soldiers and horses in ambush, and some flammable materials are piled up on it.

That is to say, if our men and horses want to reach the pass safely, we must first clear these two teams of men and horses, otherwise, when our soldiers and horses pass through the bottom of the ditch, it is very easy to be stopped in the ditch by the other party, a fire, and there are no bones.

To pass the Dusong Pass, only this trail is winding and straight through the pass, the position is relatively narrow, and the team of people and horses cannot be dispersed at all, so the people who attack the Dusong Pass, the number of people is useless, the first thing is to be fine.

This is the gate of Dusong Pass, it looks like a long passage, the passage is not wide, only for one person and one horse to pass, there is a square hole above the passage, forming an urn city, on which there are archers, slingers, etc. ”

Qin Hao faced the sand table and introduced the terrain of Dusong Pass and the distribution of troops on it to everyone in detail, Liang Hongyu listened to it and said in a deep voice:

"The terrain of this Dusong Pass is dangerous, it can be said that it is a one-man pass, ten thousand passes, it is easy for us to clear the troops on both sides, but to seize the gate, it is dangerous, even if we grab the first gate, after entering, we will be killed by the other party's arrows."

Qin Hao nodded and said: "Miss Hongyu is right, although Lu Xing'er's army spirit is dissipated, there are also many diehards who follow him, as long as these people hold the dangerous place, it will not be so easy for us to seize the pass." ”

Since Ma Kuo came to the military tent, he has been staring at the sand table, and after listening to the analysis of the two, he muttered: "It is not difficult to seize the high ground on both sides of Dusong Pass, it is better to let Wang Zhi and Geng Qing each lead a thousand soldiers and horses to capture it."

As for the rush to the pass, because the gate is narrow and as long as a hole, only one person is allowed to pass through, so it is better to hand it over to me, Brother Yang, and Huzi, and then Shi Xiaolong will send two teams of brothers from the Divine Arrow Battalion to suppress the defenders on the pass. ”

Qin Hao had no objection to Ma Kuo's personnel arrangement, but added: "Let's tackle the problem this time, I want to use Erhu's Shenwei Battalion to take the lead, let's make a total of ten artillery pieces during this time, I plan to use six artillery pieces to deal with the ambush troops on both sides, four artillery, attack the gate, and wait until the defenders on the gate are chaotic, and you and Brother Yang will kill the generals again." ”

During this time, Mao Xue has been developing artillery, and has also done several tests, although the power of the artillery is great, but the accuracy is not high, plus Ma Kuo has been sticking to the past thinking, and did not count the Erhu's Shenwei Battalion in this attack.

After Qin Hao finished speaking, his eyes swept over everyone, and then said: "Our tackling of key problems today is not trivial, we need everyone's full cooperation, how to launch an artillery attack, how to give orders from the snow, how to create momentum, Miss Xiang'er is responsible." ”

Speaking of this, his tone changed suddenly, and his demeanor was solemn, "We need to work hard to tackle the key problems this time, and we don't have to worry about the casualties of the other party as before, that is to say, the snowy artillery does not need much accuracy, where there are many people, we can bomb wherever there are!" ”

After receiving the order, Mao Xue and Xiang'er girls turned around and went out of the tent, and they were ready to go, Liang Hongyu continued: "We want to create momentum, not only to have the sound of cannons, but also to have the sound of drums, today I personally took Xiang'er sister and them to beat the drum and cheer!" ”

After the arrangement was completed, the defense of Anji County was handed over to Gu Longlong's infantry battalion, and the original box soldiers and the fast catchers in the yamen were all deployed by Gu Longlong, the purpose of which was naturally to prevent Lu Xing'er from quickly seizing the city after leaving the pass.

The war drums sounded, and the group came to a place less than a mile away from Dusong Pass to stop, and reorganized the formation, which was different from the situation in which the two armies fought and lined up to meet each other in the commentaries of the past dynasties.

There are no soldiers and horses of Lu Xing'er in front of the pass, only grass and trees, strong wind hunting, and the two armies meet, and it is obviously impossible to see the situation of soldiers against generals and generals.

Under the command of the snow, the artillery was slowly pulled out, and unlike the previous artillery, the artillery made by Qin Hao was particularly bulky, and the barrel alone was more than three hundred catties.

The artillery has a special turret, the design of the turret is Qin Hao himself, but the production is Erhu himself, the turret is supported by four wheels, which is convenient for marching and moving, and the height of the muzzle can be adjusted for easy aiming.

Six artillery pieces, divided into two teams, facing the high ground on both sides of the pass, although Liu Xiang'er's propaganda team was in full array, they did not come forward to shout, because now they stepped forward, it was not a shout, it was a joke.

The landing point of the artillery strike in the snow had already been planned, and he personally demonstrated, adjusted the muzzles, and waited until the six guns were ready, and then ordered everyone to light the fire, and the flames burned rapidly.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

With a loud bang, the cannonballs fell on the mountainside with a thunderous momentum, and the dust kicked up was overwhelming, and the momentum was really not small, except for the brothers of the Shenwei battalion, the people in the other battalions were suddenly stunned by the scene in front of them.

They are all from the forbidden army, and they have not only heard of the artillery battalion, but some have even seen it, and the Feishan battalion in the imperial court is a typical artillery battalion, but it is just such a powerful artillery, not only have they not seen it, but they have not even heard of it.

Open the mountain and crack the rock, shake the sky and shake the earth!

It was their accurate evaluation of the artillery, but, unlike these excited forbidden soldiers, Mao Xue looked a little embarrassed, and his face was a little red, because the six cannons just now were powerful, but ...... It's too close!

Accompanied by Tian Xiaoqian, Qin Hao came to Mao Xue's side, silently calculating the elevation angle of the muzzle and the landing point of the shell, but did not put forward any opinions, because he knew that it was not the time to make an opinion.

"Childe, I'm sorry, I wasted six shells just now!" Mao Xue scratched his head, looking at Qin Hao with some embarrassment.

Qin Hao patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "The first time I applied artillery to the battlefield, it is already good to be able to hit this effect, I didn't see the other party's men and horses were already frightened by the sound of artillery just now?" ”

With Qin Hao's eyes, he saw that there were many people scurrying there on the high ground in the distance, looking a little chaotic, not like a normal defensive mobilization, and his heart suddenly recovered a sense of accomplishment.

Immediately ordered the six gunners to adjust the angle of the muzzle of the cannon a little higher, and with an order, another six cannons were fired in unison, the power was equally amazing, and the effect was equally poor, this time it was not closer, but ...... It's far away!
