Chapter Seventy-Two: Defeating the Golden Soldiers
"What's going on?"
A soldier suddenly fell, which caught Borzi's attention.
Kuimut immediately stepped forward to inspect it, only to see that blood was pouring from the chest of the fallen soldier, and he was no longer breathing.
"Maybe it's a stray bullet." A Niu Lu said nervously, they were well aware that the current Chinese army had firearms that had a long range.
Kuimut showed a worried look, and he returned to Borzi's side and persuaded: "It may be a stray bullet, Lord Banner, it is very dangerous here, you better go back to the camp." ”
Borzi disagreed, "We, the Jurchen warriors, will never retreat from the battle, and I am here to watch this dock fort fall." ”
Kuimut tried to persuade again, but when he saw Borzi's serious expression, he stopped.
At the same time, Li Yuanxiao's army officially launched a charge towards Wubao.
The guns of the golden soldiers also spit out fire and smoke, and one after another solid bullets flew towards the walls of the dock fort, and the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke for a while.
"Aim at the artillery of the golden soldiers and shoot them all." On the city wall, Lu Zhen methodically commanded the defense.
Before the start of the war, he selected a group of excellent marksmen, in order to snipe the artillery of the Jin State on the battlefield.
Now these soldiers came in handy, and in addition to the infantry, he mobilized artillery to attack the artillery of the Jin country.
Obviously, the greatest threat to them on the entire battlefield is the artillery of the Jin Kingdom.
If the walls of the Dock Fort were to be destroyed by these artillery, they would not be able to resist the outnumbered Jin soldiers.
So after the start of the war, the first thing they had to deal with was the enemy's artillery.
Receiving Lu Zhen's order, the soldiers fired at the Jin artillery.
The bullet slashed through the air and passed through a distance of three or four hundred meters to the artillery of the Jin State.
In an instant, dozens of Jin artillerymen fell to the ground.
The artillery shells of the Ning army also hit the artillery of the Jin State fiercely, which made the artillery positions of the Jin State chaotic.
Li Yuanxiao noticed that the Chinese soldiers concentrated their fire on the artillery, which gave them the opportunity to get closer to the city walls.
Because then they have less firepower.
Thousands of soldiers quickly reached the city wall under the fire of the Chinese soldiers, and at this time they leaned the ladder against the wall and climbed up one after another.
In the distance, Borzi smiled a little, as long as their soldiers climbed the walls, the battle was half won.
It's just that his smile quickly froze as bursts of violent explosions rang out under the city walls.
On the wall of Wubao, Lu Zhen showed an evil smile, it was precisely because of the secret weapon of the grenade that he dared to throw most of his firepower at the Jin State artillery.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The explosion of grenades continued to sound, and the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom, who were crowded under the city walls, became the best targets.
A single grenade can often kill and injure more than a dozen Jin soldiers.
The sudden explosion shocked the besieging Jin soldiers, who left their bodies behind and fled back.
"Throw!" Lin Rui ordered.
Within 50 meters of the city wall, there were Jin soldiers, all within the throwing distance of grenades.
The soldiers of the Ning army picked up grenades and threw them at the Jin soldiers one by one, and the Jin army retreated with corpses in the continuous explosion.
Li Yuanxiao's face was extremely ugly, and the weapons used by the soldiers of the Hua Dynasty seemed terrible to him.
The soldiers under his command are no different from giving their lives in vain.
Bolzi was no better, and it seemed to him that this army was a bit strange, unlike any Chinese army he had come into contact with before.
"Lord Banner, this Chinese Dynasty army is really weird." Quimut took the opportunity to say that he was finally able to find a reason for his failure.
Borzi nodded solemnly, and since he has gone south, he has been full of confidence and has never encountered any setbacks.
He thought that attacking Jiang Ning this time was just a simple matter, but now his confidence began to waver a little.
The source of this lack of self-confidence is the current Chinese army.
For him, if he failed here, the southward movement of the Jin Kingdom would be blocked, and the myth of the invincibility of the Jin soldiers would be shattered, which would destabilize the occupied cities in Jiangbei.
After all, although these cities surrendered, the hatred of the Han people towards them grew day by day.
"Destroy this Chinese army at all costs." Borzi said hoarsely.
In his opinion, this army does not seem to be many in number, and if this army cannot be eradicated now, once this army grows, it will be a serious threat to the Jin State.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.
When he looked again, he noticed that the shoulder bone above his heart was bleeding.
"Protect the Bannerman." Frightened, Quimut immediately rallied his soldiers around Borzi to protect Borzi's retreat into the camp.
On the top of the mountain, Lin Mu raised his head, three months of leisurely training obviously could not make him a qualified sniper.
In addition, the dedicated snipers have an observer who is responsible for measuring the distance and direction of the wind.
It was already good that he was able to hit the generals of the Jin Kingdom at a distance of more than 500 meters.
Putting away the sniper rifle, Lin Mu came down from the mountain.
Lu Zhen and Lin Rui immediately came over, "My lord, the grenade is too effective, this time Jin Bing has suffered, and he will definitely not dare to fight the idea of the dock fort casually." ”
Lin Mu nodded, and at the same time looked at the artillery position of the Jin Kingdom.
At this time, there was a mess there, corpses on the ground, and artillery was also tilting to the east, obviously suffering heavy losses.
This wave of his purpose has been achieved.
"It's just that we have also exposed our strength, and the Jin people will not let us go easily, but they will not attack again in a short time, at least we have won time to train soldiers." Lin Mu said.
Lu Zhen and Lin Rui nodded when they heard this, Jin Bing would definitely not give up when they suffered a heavy setback, but they were not vegetarians either.
Moreover, this repulsion of the Jin soldiers' attack greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers, and the fear of the Jin people before the war disappeared.
"Hehe, when our soldiers are trained, we will drive these golden people into the river to feed the fish." Lu Zhen laughed.
Lin Mu smiled, chatted with the generals for a while, and encouraged the soldiers at the same time, and then went down the city wall.
The movement on the side of Wubao was also seen by Duanwang and Liu Jiangbai.
They were high up and down, and they could see the course of the war through the monoculars they bought from the West.
"This Lin Mu is hiding a lot of things." King Duan was surprised that the Jin soldiers attacked quickly and retreated quickly.
"What's that exploding thing? It's a weapon for defending the city. Liu Jiangbai was also a little puzzled, but because the telescope had a limited field of vision, they could only see approximately.
"When this war is over, you must ask Lin Mu." King Duan made up his mind, but now that the Jin people were fighting to the death in Lin Mu's dock fort, he was a little worried about Lin Mu.
Liu Jiangbai said: "Lin Mu has attracted the troops of the Jin people, Jiangning City is safe, Your Highness, we have to share some for Lin Mu." ”
