Chapter 440: It's good to come out
Ai Bali promised to go down immediately to prepare, he lit a Niu Lu armor soldier, and a Han army flag with two Niu Lu opened the city gate and killed.
The Han army banner in cotton armor was in front, and Aibali led the iron-clad Jurchens behind, rushing towards the Changxing army who were digging trenches.
Xu Lianshan was digging a trench with a shovel at the forefront, listening to the rumbling of cannons overhead, Xu Lianshan, who was digging the soil, complained alone: "Damn Jiannu, he actually became a turtle with a shrunken head." Aren't you Temu known as invincible in the field? If you have the ability to come out, let Uncle Xu have a good time playing with you miscellaneous pieces! ”
While he was complaining, the gates of Fuzhou opened. More than a thousand Tartars rushed out of it and rushed towards him.
Xu Lianshan immediately dropped the shovel in his hand, stuffed the copper whistle on his chest into his mouth, and blew it vigorously.
The sharp and piercing copper whistle sounded, and the Changxing army, which was still digging the trenches, listened to it, and one by one picked up their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy.
Looking at the Jiannu who rushed over, Xu Lianshan muttered in a low voice: "Miscellaneous Jiannu, I really can't resist chattering!" It's good to come out, so that grandpa can dig a ditch and be lonely! ”
"Ready! Aim! Fire! Xu Lianshan issued a series of orders in an orderly manner, and the soldiers also aimed their firearms at the rushing armor soldiers.
The Changxing troops on both sides, under the command of the captain, were also ready to meet the enemy, and opened fire one after another after the enemy entered the firing range.
Ma Bao, who was observing from a distance, noticed the Jurchens' attack and immediately led reinforcements to support Xu Lianshan.
For a while, there was a loud bang in front of the Changxing army, the smoke of gunpowder rose, and the lead bullets continued to shoot out, hitting the enemy who was running.
Mang Gultai nodded with satisfaction at the head of the city, Aibali was not a great general under him. commanding the Han army flag as a meat shield has approached the Changxing army.
If you continue to fight like this, you will definitely be able to rush into the trenches of the Changxing army and start hand-to-hand combat. He needed to give his subordinates some support, and immediately ordered: "Let the artillery at the head of the city return fire, and don't let the mud hide in the trench and shoot easily!" ”
After the order of Mang Gurtai was issued at the head of Fuzhou City, several small cannons were pushed to the battlements and aimed at the Changxing army below and began to shoot.
Xu Lianshan, who was directing the soldiers to fire a salvo, suddenly heard the whistling sound of the cannonballs, and he was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head.
A cannonball landed two feet in front of him, jumping over his head and hitting him in the distance. Then a few more shells came, most of them were quite outrageous, only one hit the mound, and some of the rubble did not have much effect.
The shelling at the head of the city stopped the fire of the Changxing army for a moment, and the men led by Ai Bali rushed to a place of twenty paces at once.
Mang Gurtai saw that the shelling had an effect, and he couldn't help jumping straight with joy. Geshha beside him hurriedly pulled his master down, and the artillery fire of the Changxing army was very fierce.
If any of the shells hit this Lord Belle, it would be all over. Mang Gurtai was not angry when he was pulled down by Goshha, and said to his cronies Goshha: "The Changxing army is nothing more than this, Benbeile was a little too careful before, if he leads the army to meet the Changxing army, he will be able to win easily!" ”
"Yes! Be! Be! Baylor's martial arts are world-famous, and the Changxing Army is like a clown jumping off the beam, and he is not vulnerable at all......"
Listening to the sycophants of his cronies, Mang Gurtai was a little fluttering, wondering if he would seize the opportunity to raid the Changxing army and kill a few Changxing troops with his own hands to vent his anger.
At this moment, a series of explosions were heard from under the city, and Mang Gurtai hurriedly rushed up to the battlement to look outside.
I saw that the front of the Changxing army was filled with gunsmoke, and there were constantly flashes of explosions. His own Aibali and those armor soldiers were all shrouded in gunsmoke, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead. He immediately ordered: "Tunbulu! Take another thousand people down, and take advantage of the smoke and dust to take down the trench for the master! ”
Xu Lianshan shouted loudly in the trench: "Hurry up! Throw the grenade out, and wait for Kennu to cut off your head as a wine glass. The action is sharp, be fast! ”
Seeing that the enemy was less than twenty steps away from the trench, Xu Lianshan immediately ordered to throw grenades. Suddenly grenades rained down on the enemy, and the sound of explosions rose higher and higher. Even the Changxing army in the trenches felt deafening, and after throwing hundreds of grenades in three rounds, they stopped their movements and observed the front of the gunsmoke.
Suddenly! A figure rushed out of the smoke and arrived in front of the trench in a few steps. Xu Lianshan's hands were quick, and he knocked down the person in front of him with a lift.
The downed enemy threw himself forward and stopped at the edge of the trench. Xu Lianshan clearly saw this person's face, this is a real slave, there is no doubt that this is a real slave. He wore three layers of armor on his body, and the big knife in his hand was ten pounds, and he was definitely a fierce general.
The soldiers of the Changxing Army also raised their vigilance, shouting and killing came from the smoke of gunpowder, and one after another Jurchen armored soldiers rushed out of the smoke, and they rushed to the trench with a loud roar.
"Fire! Hurry up and fire on Dutwood! Xu Lianshan ordered loudly while loading the fire gun.
The Changxing army opened fire one after another at the figures rushing out of the smoke of gunpowder, knocking down dozens of people in the blink of an eye. But more figures jumped into the trenches and started a battle with the Changxing army.
Xu Lianshan held a shovel to block the opponent's knife, raised his foot and kicked down the Jurchen armor soldier in front of him. He slashed off half of the enemy's head in the roar of the opponent, then dodged the slash of another enemy, and took out the shackle from his waist to kill the armored soldier who rushed at him with his sword.
The Changxing army's trenches were beaten into a pot of porridge, and the Jurchen armor soldiers and the Changxing army mixed together to fight each other, screams and roars alternately, and many people fell and never had a chance to stand up.
The grenade just now caused a lot of casualties to the Han Army Banner wearing cotton armor, but the damage to the Jurchens who were at the rear of the team and wearing three layers of iron armor was limited.
With the Han military flag as a meat shield, they were more often injured by fragments and iron nails in grenades, and did not lose their combat effectiveness. The sound of the explosion destroyed their balance, so that they didn't rush up for a while.
As soon as these people recovered, they immediately rushed to the trenches of the Changxing army under the cover of gunsmoke, and the martial arts that the Jurchen armor soldiers had practiced for many years in close combat finally had a place to use.
If it weren't for the strong defensive strength of the armor of the Changxing Army, it would be difficult to resist the opponent's attack. The numerical advantage gave the Jurchen armor soldiers a big advantage, and the soldiers of the Changxing army often had to face two or three armor soldiers, and the casualties increased greatly for a while.
Just when Xu Lianshan's team couldn't support it, reinforcements led by Ma Bao arrived.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! The short guns continued to fire at close range, and the Jurchen armor soldiers who had originally had the upper hand were knocked down one after another. The Changxing army took the initiative again and recaptured the trenches.
Xu Lianshan sat on the corpse of a Jurchen armored soldier and kept smirking: "Brother Ma! It's better for you to be good to your brother, if you come a little later, Yulan will be widowed! ”
