Mahu led the team to the Yakuzk fortress and stood at a place of one mile, and the four cannons were pushed up.

Several gunners began to be busy, and before they could adjust their angles, the two guns on the head of the city opened fire first.

The roar of artillery at the head of the city only stunned the gunners of the Changxing Army who were about to open fire for a moment, and then accelerated their movements.

The Rakshasa people's artillery bombardment was too far away, and they didn't even reach the side of the Changxing army. Chekov was furious, pulled the gunner and reprimanded: "See if you can shoot accurately for God's sake, if you can't hit, we will all go to God!" ”

The gunner trembled and agreed to recalibrate the artillery, the Changxing army was not fully prepared, and Yakuzk sent out a second shelling.

I don't know if Chekov's words worked, or if the gunner was ashamed and brave, and he directly hit a cannon of the Changxing Army.

The gun was hit directly by a shell, and the entire barrel was knocked into the air. The artillery crew of five was killed and wounded two and three wounded, and the defenders of Yakutsk immediately shouted excitedly.

Chekov was the only one in the Yakuzk fortress who was not happy, he was not like this group of firecrackers.

Although the artillery of the Far Easterners was hit, the gunners of the remaining three guns went about their business with just a glance.

That kind of indifference can only be seen in veterans who have experienced the Great War, which shows that all the Far Easterners sent to Ice City are elite soldiers.

At least the gunners are all elite, and such an enemy is the most difficult to deal with. If the Far Easterners were such elite soldiers, this battle for Yakutsk would really be hanging.

Perhaps Yakov was right, at the beginning they should have immediately retreated, and waited until the Cossack cavalry arrived in the complete liquidation of the Far Easterners.

This thought came to his mind for a moment when Chekov was left behind, and as the governor of the Far East, he was driven out by someone else, can he continue to stay in this position?

This is the Far East, that's where he Chekov is, don't try to drive him away from anyone, no one!

The defenders of Yakutsk did not have long to celebrate, and the counterattack of the Changxing army arrived. Three guns opened fire after the battle, and the shells hit the city directly.

Although it didn't hit the artillery, it also scared the Rakshasa gunners out of the sky. Their hands were shaking, and they couldn't get their brushes out when they cleaned the chambers.

The trembling Rakshasa gunners had just reloaded their ammunition, and before they could open their guns, the shelling from the river ensued.

The gunboats on the river went from aimlessly firing at random to artillery aimed at the head of the city of Yakutsk.

Dozens of shells fell, almost drowning the two guns. Fortunately, the accuracy of the battleship's guns on the river was really not very good, so the two guns were spared.

Chekov looked at his gunners with a grim face, eager to cut them down one by one.

He rushed forward with a strong stride, kicked the gunner's ass with his foot, and shouted, "Shoot me at once!" Otherwise, God will not save you! Immediately, immediately! ”

The gunners finally reset the artillery under the threat of Chekov, and after two cannon shots, the artillery of the Changxing army under the city was unharmed.

There wasn't even a single scar on the ground, and Chekov was stunned for a moment before he reacted. These idiots didn't even load the shells, and after such a long time of preparation, they heard two sounds.

He was about to get angry when he suddenly heard the whistle of a cannonball bursting through the air. Instinctively a veteran, he quickly fell to the side.

The thud rang in his ears, and then a stream of sparse shards flew over his head.

A few pieces hit him, and Chekov resisted the pain and did not get up. Another burst of cannonballs fell, and the walls of the fortress trembled.

It wasn't until after this round of shells that Chekov got up from the ground in disgrace, and the two guns not far away had been smashed to pieces.

Half of the barrel was deeply rooted in the fortress, and the hapless gunners were even more torn apart, and none of them remained intact.

The artillery of the Yakuzk fortress was destroyed by the other side, and Chekov's eyes sharpened as he looked at the artillery of the Far Easterners who were still wreaking havoc under the city.

"Open the gates!" Chekov's order was given, and immediately someone went up the hill to open the gates of the fortress.

"No! Never open! You're all going to die! I promise! You're all going to die! ......" a figure rushed in front of Chekov, first grabbed Chekov, who was about to open the city, and shouted at more than 300 musketeers.

Chekov's eyes were full of fire, and the artillery of the Changxing Army could not be defended by wooden fortresses alone.

There was only one way to hold Yakuzk by defeating the Far Easterners, and a decisive battle out of the city was his choice.

At this critical moment, Yakov actually came up to stop it, and he wanted to shake the military heart of the Rakshasas, and at this moment Chekov had the urge to kill.

"Get out of the way! Otherwise, I'll execute you right away!" Chekov had already drawn his short gun and aimed it at Yakov.

Yakov did not have the slightest fear when he looked at the short gun pointed at him, but said seriously: "Governor Chekov! The muskets of the Far Easterners have a very long range, they can hit a hundred and fifty meters away!

It's true, please trust me! My men and I have experienced first-hand that you will be defeated before you go out to fight a decisive battle before you get close to the Far Easterners! ”

His words caused an uproar among the Rakshasa firecrackers who were about to leave the city, and only Chekov sneered: "One hundred and fifty meters? It's just a rifled musket!

Such muskets have long existed in Europe, but they are too slow to reload. It is said that each soldier was also given a hammer, and the lead bullet had to be smashed with a hammer to fit into the chamber.

Ha ha!! Lads! Will you be afraid of a group of Far Eastern monkeys with hammers? ”

Chekov was not the governor of the entire Far East, and a few words relaxed the nervous firecrackers.

"Nope! Far Easterners' muskets are loaded very quickly, faster than our arquebuses, it's true! Really! Jakov hurriedly preemptively said.

Chekov's face turned completely cold, and he shouted at Yakov: "Yakov! Do I look like a fool? Tell me out loud, do I look like a fool? ”

Frightened by Chekov's roar, Yakov shook his head mechanically.

"Excellent! You want to tell me that the Far Easterners have a musket with a range comparable to rifled muskets. Reload ammunition faster than our arquebuses, right? Chekov asked loudly.

Yakov nodded again, he was already so frightened by Chekov that he couldn't say a word at all.

Chekov saw that the situation was under control, and his voice lowered a lot and said: "Yakov! You're too tired, can you take a break?

For God's sake, stop us any more, or I'll swear you'll have your head broken!" ”
