readx;?“ But this is an order, let's not open fire. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Li Yuan nodded on the order in Liu Lihua's hand, "You can't fire first, right?" ”

"Whatever, the general will not be affected by the king's life outside," Liu Lihua said, "or just shoot at the jungle behind first, anyway, it's all within range, it's better to scare them first." If it's an ally, they'll send someone to contact us, and if it's an enemy, they'll attack right away! ”

Li Yuan thought for a moment, and shouted at Li Zhen in the wooden fort, "Warning to shoot once, shoot the woods, and try not to hit them." ”

Li Zhen waited for a long time, and as soon as he heard the order, an uncontrollable sense of excitement came out of his heart, and he shouted at Fan Han, "Prepare to shoot!" The distance is one thousand and one hundred meters! Direction 282, one shot. ”

Fan Han hurriedly picked up the protractor and began to calculate according to the parameters on the shooting table, and soon he reported the value, and the operator quickly and skillfully shook the high and low machine, fixed the angle of fire of the artillery, and reported to Fan Han Dasheng, "Comrade Gun Commander, the artillery is ready for shooting." Fan Han raised the little red flag and turned his head to look at it, and before he could report to Li Zhen, Li Zhen had already nodded his head twice in a row.

"Fire!" With the small red flag in Fan Han's hand waved downward, he saw that the gunner had already pulled the rope of the fire pipe fiercely, and with a loud "boom", the muzzle of the gun spewed out dazzling firelight, and at the same time, thick gunpowder smoke was spewed, and the cannonball suddenly whistled out and flew into the distance.

To say that Li Zhen was also very excited at this time, he, like Ma Linming, also had the ambition to become the director of artillery. But the last time he attacked the Champonggang barracks, he was unable to participate because he needed to test the rifled gun with Lin Shenhe, and I heard that the last time the 1629 smoothbore cannon showed its might, and only a few shots made the Champanggang army lose their armor and abandon their armor, and it was already depressing enough to not participate, and what was even more depressing was that the rifled gun test also failed, and the barrel after the explosion flew up more than ten meters high, which made all the people who tested it a burst of discouragement. This time, I heard that the new army barracks needed to intercept a group of tens of thousands of troops, so I immediately put down all the things at hand and came to participate in this battle.

Sun Qiudi is not only Sun Qiu, but also Leng Yuanyangdi

Like all the other patriarchs, although he was a soldier in the old time and space, he had never faced a real confrontation with the enemy, not even a confrontation had occurred, and all PLA soldiers could only retreat when they encountered external humiliation in decades of Taoguang cultivation. There are so many such things that even true gods have to hold back their fire, not to mention that they are all young people with strong blood. Since participating in the crossing is to expand the territory, then the veterans of the military department will naturally not give up every opportunity to participate in the battle, even if they are next to these artillery pieces that may explode at any time.

The cannonball flew out of the muzzle, flew more than a thousand meters in the air with a scream, and landed in the woods behind the marching column in front of the Ito Army.

The soldiers of the front army stared in horror at the smoke and branches that had not yet had time to fall in the distance, "Big barrel attack!" This terrible word came to the minds of many people at the same time. No matter what era the recruits are afraid of artillery, there is always time and space where artillery exists. Not to mention that the artillery in front of him was obviously fired at a distance of about a thousand meters, and it could even hit his back, so his position was not safe at all, and it was already within the enemy's range.

Japan also had artillery in the early years, but the range of Japanese artillery is basically very sad, because of the shortcomings of the Japanese in smelting, so the problem of cannon material is very difficult to solve, they can only use a method that makes future generations disgusted to make artillery - wooden cannon, that is, hollowing out a piece of hardwood, and then tightening it with a cannon hoop, so that it can be fired as a one-time shot, and if the quality is good, it can also be used for multiple shots. However, because this method of making artillery is inferior in workmanship and shoddy materials, it is often dangerous to even launch a single shot, so the Japanese often do not use artillery unless they have to. When they were still in the South Bank Army, when they were stationed near Jiezhen, they also had two guns in the South Bank Army, and those guns that were respected as Yang Wei General had a range of only 600 meters, and they had to rub the barrel with vinegar to cool down after firing. Even that kind of artillery is enough to deter the Northern Rebellion for several years, at most, it has sent a small attack across the river, and has never dared to cross the river to attack.

But this kind of artillery in front of him is obviously much more elite, and the current distance is not even clear to the opponent's gun position, and the position of the artillery can only be determined by seeing the smoke of gunpowder.

"General, what should I do?" Several ashigaru generals on the side were also frightened, and hurriedly rushed to the former army general in charge of this march to ask for instructions. This general is also confused, didn't General Ito say that there should be friendly troops ahead when he just set off? Why are they firing in their own direction?

He didn't say a word, and asked his guards to bring a map and look at it carefully. This location was originally a jungle on the map, and the location of the fortress in front of it was also in the jungle, but now these woods that were originally on the map have disappeared and become a very large open meadow. As for the fortress, it can't be found on the map, according to his estimates, after passing the location of the fortress and then two or three miles forward, it should be at the port of Champang, and suddenly it was blocked by a fortress on the way, and there were people in the fortress who fired at him, obviously friend or foe.

He put his hand on the cloud platform and looked into the distance, and a blue flag fluttered on the fortress in the distance, because there was no wind, the flag was drooping, and the font size on it was not clear. The general couldn't help but look left and right at the ashigaru generals around him and asked, "Is there any army in my Annan army with a blue flag?" ”

"Isn't Ruan Wei's legion blue?" "Yes, Ruan Wei's is blue."

"So Ruan Wei's people have already taken a shortcut to the front?" The general rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, "Then should we rush and scatter their people?" ”

"Didn't there be an order long ago for the South Bank Army to draw troops from all legions to gather in one place to besiege and occupy the city port? Since there is an order, it is not impossible for Nguyen Wei's army to arrive here in the starry night. A general on the side said, "Ruan Wei has never cared about the life and death of his subordinates, and running faster than us is nothing of a big deal." ”

"It's just that," retorted another ashigaru general, "even if Ruan Wei had brought his army to the starry night, it would have been a day or two earlier than I had waited." As he spoke, he pointed to the castle in the distance, "How can such a fortress be built in a day or two?" Not to mention the artillery, the artillery still needs to stay in Jiezhen to deter the northern rebellion, and Ruan Wei can't be brought here. ”

"But what do you think should be done in this situation?" He also ran out of ideas, so he couldn't help but ask the ashigaru generals below, "Do you want to fight or talk to them first?" ”

"Of course we will fight first," said a major general in a loud voice, "this group of enemies, presumably just a cannon, to deter us and others, deliberately fired a shot before we got close, and now it should not be able to be fired again, regardless of whether he is friend or foe, since the cannon has already been fired, then let's hit them first." ”

Several ashigaru generals next to him hurriedly echoed, and the generals nodded, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Attack!" ”

At this time, according to the rhythm of the usual siege, the three ashigaru hundred-man teams of the front army had already begun to advance, followed by more than fifty cavalry in the middle, and then several ashigaru hundred-man teams of the Chinese army. The Chinese army's ashigaru phalanx included several phalanxes of bows and arrows, and they used longbows made according to Japanese practice. This kind of longbow is often as long as one meter five or six, and even one meter seven or eight, the advantage of this longbow is that the shooting distance is long, which can ensure that the arrow is projected to about 100 meters in the case of a full bow, which is a unique ultra-long-range attack in Annan even in the Wu Dynasty. During the siege, the infantry agaru units moved forward, and they threw arrows at the castle head under the walls to suppress the enemy's counterattacks, and they were invincible in many battles.

"What are they doing here?" Liu Lihua couldn't help but be stunned, and pointed to the army that was marching to this side with a drum and asked Li Yuandao. Li Yuan was also confused, "How do I know, why did this rush up?" ”

At this time, these troops are still about a kilometer away from the city, marching at this speed on foot, if they charge at full speed at this time, then the soldiers' physical exertion will be very fast, especially after a thousand meters of running, the soldiers will often be out of breath, and the connected slashing, slashing, climbing and other actions can not be done, so they are only continuing to walk forward now. In their usual way of fighting, they often have to approach about two hundred meters before they start to attack, and they are safe until then.

"What the hell should I do in this situation?" Li Yuan couldn't help but talk to himself, Xue Ziliang ran up from below, leaned over to the telescope and observed, "What else should I do?" Whoa, this is an offense. ”

"But the order of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is to avoid fighting as much as possible." Li Yuan couldn't help but look at the order paper held in the hands of the herald on the side, "Let's start fighting before the other party fires, is it really good?" ”

Sun is not far away, and the ghost enemy is the lonely moon promise

"That's simple, just get a loudspeaker and tell them to stop advancing, if you don't stop, we'll fire again, anyway, we've done everything that needs to be said and done, and if we move forward, we're going to die." Liu Lihua shrugged his shoulders and said, "I remember that there are tweeters in this barracks. ”

"Attention those who are approaching, you have entered the confines of the Senate, please put away your weapons and stop, and wait for the next order." There was a loud voice from the fortress in the distance, which shocked the indigenous soldiers, and now there were still hundreds of feet away from the fortress, and the voices of the people could already be heard, which was too unbelievable, right?

"How's that good?" A general hurriedly looked at the general not far away, the general was also in a daze at this time, he didn't understand how people transmitted the voice, let alone what the Senate was. Before they set out this morning, they just said that the front should be friendly forces, and in their conceptions, friendly forces were gone except for Annam's army loyal to Nguyen Phuc Yuan, and they had never touched the word senate. At that moment, he waved his hand at the castle in the distance and ordered loudly, "Ignore them, keep moving forward and prepare to attack." ”

Liu Lihua shrugged at Xue Ziliang as he continued to approach the phalanx in the distance, "Look, I'll just say that they are hostile, how many meters have they entered?" He turned to the soldier who was still observing.

After not the cool enemy of the field, Yang picked up Sun Gu

Without even thinking about it, the soldier replied, "Seven hundred meters!" ”

"The third company is ready, get on the salvo sight!" Liu Lihua proudly pushed the steel helmet on his head and gave an order.

The soldiers of the third company quickly opened the small door on the left side of the rifle, this salvo sight played a strong role in the last battle for the defense of the port of Champong, because the distance was too long, the bullet body they used was heavy, so it was greatly affected by the wind, so the use of the salvo sight to concentrate fire on the target outside the limit range can play a suppressive role.

"Adjust the gauge by 700 meters!" The soldiers quickly adjusted the gauge to a scale of 700 meters according to the command, and then began to aim according to the orders of the squad leaders. Since the rate of fire of the 1628 and 1629 rifles had been greatly increased, the three-stage training in the infantry drill had now been completely abolished, so all the soldiers stood on the walls and carried out aiming work at the same time.

The effective range of the 1628 rifle is 400 meters, but in the test, it was found that the maximum range of this bullet can even reach about 1,000 meters, so the scale on the salvo sight is up to 1,000 meters, and the rifle is fired diagonally, and when the bullet falls, it can also kill unprotected targets at a distance of 800 meters.

"Shoot!" Liu Lihua shouted the order, and the muzzle of the third company spewed out gunsmoke, officially opening the prelude to this battle of misunderstanding.

The former soldiers of the marching army also saw the smoke rising from the castle in the distance, and then heard the crackling sound of the castle, which sounded like popping beans because of the distance. Just as he was curious, there was a faint and inaudible whistling sound from the sky, and then many people in the middle of the Ashigaru Brigade fell to the ground in a daze.

The ashigaru did not notice such casualties, and it was not uncommon for them to be stopped and fired by the other side before entering the attack position during the siege, although the guys who were now known as the Senate were blocking the shooting from a long distance, and judging from the smoke of gunfire, it should also be a firearm. But if a firearm is to be loaded, the other side must be busy loading the firearm now. At this moment, the position where the artillery had been fired just now spewed out gunpowder smoke again, and a shell crossed a parabola at a speed visible to the naked eye, flying in the direction of the front army.
