Chapter Seventy-Four: Grenade Rain
The Nanban army in the lens is getting closer and closer, and the ugly faces of the Nanban soldiers in the SLR camera in Zhao Yong's hand can already be photographed clearly, the corpses lying on the ground crookedly in the distance, the barbarians shouting with their weapons held high, and the ordinary people who are pushed in front like walking corpses, all of which seem to be a living embodiment of hell. He couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart www.biquge.info his hands trembled and grabbed the camera to shoot at the approaching barbarians, and from time to time he also reported some "suspicious targets" to Yang Muqin beside him who looked more like officers.
The camera made an almost indistinguishable "Didi" sound in the noisy sound, and if it weren't for the "memory full" displayed on the screen, Zhao Yong probably wouldn't have known that the 32G memory card had been filled.
"I'll go!" Yang Muqin couldn't help but turn his head to look at the display screen of this SLR, "How many photos have you taken!" Can you fill up 32g of space? ”
Zhao Yong didn't explain, but his hands trembled and he felt in his pocket, and soon dropped a lot of things on the city wall. Yang Muqin looked down and shuddered in fright, "How many memory cards did you bring?" ”
"We've got this-this-this time with fifteen memory cards." Zhao Yong said while scrambling to pick up the memory card on the wall, "Seven of them are 32G and eight are 64G." ”
"You're going to take a panorama of the battlefield, right?" Yang Muqin smiled, picked up SKS and knocked down a guy who was swinging a knife and yelling at the other barbarians. At this time, the Marines around him fired another volley, and the sound of gunfire sounded in their ears, which felt deafening.
Catherine was on the castle tower, and her position had a pretty good view, with an unobstructed view of all the Western Side brutes. She wasn't as shaky as her husband was, and the resolute newswoman was steadily filming the brute with a camera while explaining to herself. "Now the Marines are firing a salvo, okay!" As she spoke, she turned the camera to the barbarians who were being shot, "The effect of this salvo is relatively weak, because the Nanban seems to have learned how to deal with the salvo now." At this time, the female patriarch wore long blond hair on top of her head, and her upper body was wearing a relatively tight black long-sleeved shirt, black lace on both shoulders, and her skin was looming during the period, and a green training uniform was wrapped around her waist, she had not planned to wear this, and she was wearing a pair of relatively tight light blue jeans underneath and a pair of Martin boots on her feet. The figure of this big Yanma is tall, the big place is big, the thin place is small, and at this time it is on the most conspicuous city tower, which is simply the attention of thousands of people. Several veteran snipers next to her had already missed several targets in order to peek at her, and the herald who was not far away and was responsible for informing the city headquarters had already stumbled and rolled down from the city tower road several times.
…………………………
"Look! The woman on the castle tower! The barbarians began to cry out in a hurry, and the eyes of the thousands of barbarians were focused on Catherine, who could not help but admire how such a woman could be seen on the wall of the port of Champa.
"Wait," one of the brutes asked, turning to the man next to him, "isn't it only Mederor who are blonde?" Why do I think that woman has blonde hair? ”
"I don't know, maybe she's from Medenor?" The man said nonchalantly, "Let's just rush in, and we'll be free to loot for three days, and that woman should look delicious." ”
"Then if we are caught by the two of us, can we use it before eating?" This brute is a little depressed, why are all foodies around him?
"This ......" The voice of the speaker stopped abruptly, and another hail of bullets fell near them, killing and wounding dozens of people.
The effect of the salvo became worse and worse as the gap between the people in the barbarian array increased, but the battle was not the number of both sides who fought completely, and the barbarians were terrified at this time. There is nothing to be afraid of face-to-face fighting brute soldiers, except for one or two battles since the several northern invasions, it is simply like entering a no-man's land. Sometimes when they encounter a city that dares to resist, they only need to gather two or three tribes to push it over, and these Annamite people simply don't have the courage to fight them head-on, often they can't even get two bows and arrows and scare each other for more than ten miles. But now, there was no way to dodge the rain of bullets that could not be seen with the naked eye, and the barbarians could only chant incantations and pray for the blessing of the true god in their hearts, not to die inexplicably as they walked like those unlucky companions.
Xue Ziliang raised the telescope again, and saw that the array of barbarians was walking past another pile of rubble brushed with white lime, and he shouted loudly behind him: "Enter one hundred and fifty meters!" Grenade launcher ready! ”
The grenade launcher is a large slingshot, similar to the one used by the insurgents to throw grenades from a distance when they were stumbling with government forces in Syria, and they brought six of them with reinforcements. This slingshot is a cast-iron bow with a cow tendon instead of a rubber band, and it is capable of throwing a kilogram of something from the city wall to a position of about 200 meters. In order to prevent accidentally throwing the grenade among the common people, Xue Ziliang was stunned and waited until the brute soldiers walked into a distance of one hundred and fifty meters before firing.
With the excited shouts of the Marines, several slingshots were pulled to the brim, and several already ignited grenades were quickly placed in the projectile bucket, and the fuses of these grenades were pinched according to the time needed before landing. With a few firing sounds, thirty grenades were suddenly ejected, and they smashed into the array that had begun to disperse a little in the south.
The barbarians were whining and wailing by the visible bamboo handle iron bumps, and the heads that were hit broke and bleeding, or they fell to the ground and couldn't get up from the ground holding on to the beaten position. The brute soldiers who were not hit saw that these bamboo handles were still sneering and smoking, and felt very strange, not knowing what the use of these things was, they picked them up one after another, and some even directly stuffed these still smoking grenades directly into their waists. You must know that in Nanban, iron is absolutely valuable, and in many places iron is worth more than silver, and they want to take these heavy iron lumps home, maybe they can exchange them for some daily necessities.
But going home in an instant is a fantasy for them, these iron bumps suddenly exploded violently in the dense crowd, and for a while the violent explosions came one after another, and the barbarians were stunned to watch these iron bumps they had just picked up explode without warning, and the flying shrapnel and huge shock waves tore apart these barbarians, even the barbarians who were five or six meters away were beaten by the scattered shrapnel and cried for a while.
These thirty grenades caused far more damage to the brute soldiers than they did if they were fired in a salvo. Moreover, due to a series of uncontrollable factors such as air resistance in the process of being ejected, the dispersion area of these grenades being ejected was quite large, and for a while, several pieces were suddenly vacated in the huge array of 3,000 barbarians who were responsible for the attack in the west, and the dead and wounded barbarians lay on the ground, and the cries and screams shook the sky for a while, and even Catherine on the city tower could hear it clearly.
"The effect of the grenade attack is very obvious, the losses of the brutes are quite large, and until now, since they have not yet approached the city wall, the people in the forefront have not suffered any accidental injuries from our side, and we hope that we will be able to defeat the enemy before they reach the city wall." Catherine said as she scanned the battlefield with her camera. "Now we can see that Xue Ziliang is turning the target of the salvo to the two archers in the distance, they are only about a hundred meters away from the city wall, the archers are holding short bows in their hands, I don't know what their shooting distance is, whether it will pose a threat to us here. ……”
The Nanban soldiers holding the short bow were all worried at this time, the range of the short bow in their hands was very clear, but the short thirty meters, or the projectile distance, if it was a direct shot, it could only shoot at a target of about fifteen meters, their array had already been subjected to two volleys, and there were less than one hundred and fifty archers left at this time, and the centurion in charge of the command had died three hundred meters away from the city wall. The dazed archers couldn't help but turn their heads to look around, trying to know who they should obey, but no one came to tell them at all, they just followed the queue in front of them in a daze.
A herald in a red shirt shouted as he ran this way, "Where is the centurion of the archers? A few soldiers had barely had time to shout, and the herald "Dead ......" died on the spot as he heard the word. The target of the sniper team is these heralds running around in addition to the commander, they are very conspicuously dressed, red, red, blue and blue are hurriedly running around in the attack formation, it is almost at the sniper veterans shouting at me to shoot at me, so soon Bogdan found that there are no more heralds left under his command, and none of the messengers sent out before have come back at this time.
"Prepare your horses, I'm going to the west to see, I don't know what is going on there. Also, let the soldiers go to the front to see, why hasn't there been chaos in the city yet? Bogdan couldn't help but shout angrily at the soldiers beside him. Two centurians had fled on the southern siege road to the south, and they were already surrounded by his personal guards, and they were to be executed when the battle was over. Everywhere he looked, his army was in disarray, the attacking soldiers could not find the centurion, the heralds were slow to return, and from time to time the smoke of gunpowder from the towers of the other side was about to harvest a large part of the lives of his soldiers.
Bogdan couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, he had led these tribes to the north many times, when had there been such a big casualty? When you go back, you won't be annoyed by the widows because of the pension? If you don't capture this port of Champa, the pension will not be enough. Thinking of this, he shouted at a tribal leader beside him, "You lead your tribe to reinforce the troops attacking the southern city gate, create a momentum, and scare those Annam people on the city tower!" ”
