Seeing the Han army begin to march. Yan Ming's eyebrows furrowed.

He withdrew from the front line and returned to the city. At this time, battle reports came from all directions of New Taipei City.

The south and north gates were approached by Han troops almost at the same time. It's just that the approach speed of the north and south gates is much slower, not as fast as the advance of the Han army in Xicheng.

Yan Ming looked at the Han army on the opposite side and said to Lin Xiao beside him: "Look for their commander in the military formation." If you find it, shoot it immediately. ”

"Good!"

Lin Xiao agreed.

As a sniper, he has only one mission, which is to take the rank of general among the ten thousand armies.

The Han army at the West Gate did not advance wildly.

Although Xun Yan is belligerent, he is not a fool. He also wanted to see if the kind of artillery with huge lethality in New Taipei City would attack again after the slow advance.

The silent defense line of New Taipei City made Xun Yu believe once again that New Taipei City could only prepare for an attack of this scale in a long time.

Without the last worries, Xun Yan was completely relieved.

"Wound all the military crossbows. I'm going to give them a salvo of 10,000 crossbows. The flintlock brigade followed closely behind, firing as soon as it came into range. ”

Xun Yu brandished the pistol in his hand and roared arrogantly.

What he brought was an army of 100,000, and now 20,000 followed Zhao Xin to the back to pick up leaks.

There are still 80,000 soldiers today. And there were only 10,000 defenders in the city that they knew.

In Xun Yu's view, although there have been wars in history in which the weak defeated the strong.

But the more wars there are, the more likely they are to win.

There is a long history of battles, and those are the examples of battles where less can win more.

The reality is enough to show that the strength of the more people he has, the greater the power.

"Fire."

The defenders of the West Gate in the trenches were the first to put the Han army within range.

With a roar from the squad leader, fire.

All the soldiers of New Taipei City in the trenches leaned out of the trenches one after another and aimed at the enemy.

They uniformly use single-shot burst fire. The task for each person is simple, which is to kill the enemy opposite them.

"Bang ......"

The first salvo was the first roar of assault rifles in this era.

It was also one of their declarations of war on this era.

The army of the Han Dynasty was still stuck in the war mentality of military crossbows and flintlock pistols.

In their opinion, it has not yet entered the range of the attack.

Therefore, everyone was very relaxed, and only waited for the range to start firing arrows and shooting.

The sudden blow caused the Han troops who were at the forefront to fall a large area almost without any intuition, like cutting wheat.

On the position of New Taipei City, gunfire rang out.

With the sound of gunfire, the Han soldiers on the opposite side, who had not yet entered the range of the military crossbow, were shot and fell.

In an instant, it is the end of people turning on their backs.

This kind of blow and lethality that almost surpassed the cognition of the Han army directly made them stop advancing.

Xun Yu in the back saw that after the team was killed and wounded, he stopped marching and couldn't help but be furious.

"Charge, charge quickly. Cavalry charged. As long as we get into the shooting range, we will win. Flintlock brigade, press up. ”

In Xun Yu's roar, Han soldiers with flintlock pistols rode their horses and rushed out of the military formation.

"Free Fire!"

The captain of New Taipei City in the trenches immediately gave the order.

To deal with this kind of cavalry charge, free fire is required.

On the trench position of New Taipei City, the sound of continuous shooting began to sound.

The assault rifle in each soldier's hand erupted into a fiery snake and shot at the opposite side.

It must be said that the charge of the cavalry was still very useful.

Because of the second line of defense in New Taipei City, the soldiers behind that low wall also began to shoot.

Six hundred people were under intensive fire. Tens of thousands of bullets rained down like rain.

Almost a quarter of an hour before the start of the war, the Han army suffered thousands of casualties.

The lethality of this kind of horror is unprecedented.

What is especially awe-inspiring is that it is a one-way, massive mass of casualties.

This kind of death and injury makes people think about it very scary.

However, Xun Yu was angered by the sudden blow.

He didn't have time to think about it, and naturally he wouldn't be extremely afraid.

"Shield, block with shield, rush over."

Xun Yu used his existing thinking to measure the guns of the New Taipei City army.

Just like flintlock pistols, there are shields that can block flintlock pistols.

Xun Yu believed that the defenders of New Taipei City relied on nothing more than a new flintlock pistol.

Use a thick cowhide shield or a steel shield to block the opponent's shots.

After the cavalry charged, there were soldiers with heavy shields.

In the front row, groups of soldiers with huge shields marched from side to side.

And behind these shieldmen are flintlock soldiers.

The barrels of their flintlock muskets protruded from behind their shields, slowly closing in on the defenders of New North City.

The answer to Han Jun was still the monotonous sound of stomping.

The voice was like a deadly sneer.

Those big cowhide shields were a little better, and the first few bullets were able to block them. But once the leather was broken, the wood behind it could not stop the bullet from passing through the shield and shooting the soldier.

And those steel shields are miserable.

Bullets can be blocked by shields, but they can scatter and splash.

Under the force of the impact, the bullet can shatter and fly in all directions.

Some just hit the shield-bearer on the side.

Before they could get within range of the flintlock guns, the shieldmen's defenses had collapsed.

This time, the impact was not as large as the previous cavalry breakthrough.

The Han army, once again, threw down part of the corpses and retreated in a hurry.

At this time, the battle between the south gate and the north gate had also begun.

The generals of the Han army who have been used twice are different from Xun Yan.

They stopped the offensive just after suffering losses at the beginning of the war.

Both lieutenants knew that losing a battle was not a capital crime.

But if you lose the battle and all the soldiers and horses in your department are defeated, it is a capital crime that you have no power to return to heaven.

In this way, the pressure on New Taipei City was suddenly reduced.

Seeing the situation at the South Gate and the North Gate, Han Yan immediately synthesized the situation of the battlefield and dispatched the self-propelled guns from the South Gate and the North Gate to the West Gate.

Yan Ming also saw clearly that it was Xun Yu who was attacking with all his might. The rest of the army was just a pretense.

"The two city gates in the north and south, each with 200 men, come to the west gate."

Yan Ming made a decisive decision to strengthen Ximen's defense.

The lion fights the rabbit, and it is still necessary to do its best. Not to mention facing the Han army that had defeated countless surrounding countries and tribes?

Yan Ming didn't dare to take it lightly at all.

Now, the most bitter is Xun Yan.

After several charges, the losses and wounded were added up to more than six thousand people.

If this continues, his own 40,000 people, a few charges will be wiped out.

Originally, I thought that my flintlock pistol, the military crossbow was the most advanced weapon.

Thinking of showing off his might, by the way, cut off a few heads to make a big achievement.

didn't expect to be slapped in the face under New Taipei City.
