Chapter 291: Malay Chaos (8) -- Winning Artillery

Seeing this scene, Azhan Shah took the lead in rushing into the panicked artillery position. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info killed several people in a row before the panicked soldiers calmed down. Then, with a cold face, he ordered the gunners to use all their strength to destroy the enemy forces that dared to meet them.

and post a bounty. For each artillery cannon destroyed, a reward of 1,000 taels was given. He's so angry! Because these lowly Ming soldiers dared to scratch him with his artillery. Therefore, he wants to watch these Ming soldiers die as quickly as possible.

Yang Ganming, who was on the sidelines, was also anxious. After all, the distance is so close, and the enemy's artillery is several times larger than that of the other side. It is difficult to have a good result if the bombardment continues like this. But he couldn't do anything but pray. The indomitable Ming soldiers can be blessed by the gods and Buddhas of the heavens and successfully destroy the opponent's artillery.

But reality is reality. One side with more than fifty pieces of artillery is facing the other side with only a dozen guns. It's all about one side pressing the other side down.

Liu Duofu, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, was also injured and fell to the ground under the bombardment of dozens of shells. The comrades-in-arms who followed him were also baptized by artillery fire one after another.

When the first round of bombing was over, Liu Duofu's side was in a mess. The ground, which had been plowed several times, revealed several large black pits. It's like a rotten human face, and I can't tell when a few white maggots will crawl out of it.

Plumes of smoke rose from the loose earth and slowly gathered into a thick fog. At this time, the wind blew from the foot of the mountain and quickly drifted to the mountainside.

Two hundred horsemen also approached the foot of the mountain on the horse's hooves, which were getting bigger and bigger.

Azhan Sha immediately waved his hand and dispatched a musket unit to meet the Ming army. He wanted to look at his musket troops. In front of the Ming army, there are a few pounds and two. After all, this unit was specially handed over to Daming to train when his father was still alive.

Now it is used to meet the Ming Dynasty, and it is also used to test the ability of the Ming army to train soldiers.

It didn't take long for the two musket units, separated by a distance of three hundred meters, to open fire. Fortunately, what Daming sold to Johor were slightly inferior muskets. Therefore, in terms of accuracy and range, it is inferior to the Ming army.

But the musket troops in Johor, numbering more than 1,000 people, were five times larger than the Ming army. Rao is accurate marksmanship, and in the case of one enemy and five, he constantly loses troops and loses generals.

Yang Ganming wanted to send soldiers to meet them again, but the enemy's artillery was facing them. As long as you enter the firing range, the roar of the cannon will definitely ring in your ears. So he could only let all the soldiers prepare, and rush over to relieve the siege at the first opportunity.

Just when the fierce battle was in full swing, a mutilated palm suddenly stretched out from the deep pit blown out by artillery fire. Because there were destroyed artillery debris and human corpses all around, no one could see what was going on here.

Immediately after, another intact palm was revealed. Seeing Liu Duofu with a face covered in blood, he gritted his teeth and crawled out of the pit little by little. It turned out that he was protected by the deputy platoon commander, and he escaped by luck. Otherwise, like his teammates, he didn't even leave a whole corpse.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, he immediately sped up his movements.

When the whole person left the pit, he carefully looked at the environment around him.

Just saw the severed arms and stumps of his teammates, and his face was immediately covered with sadness. But this is the battlefield! From the first day of entering the army, the instructor told them. Once you become a soldier, death is a normal thing.

Maybe it's someone else who dies, maybe it's yourself who dies. But no matter what, don't be on the battlefield and grieve over such things.

So he quickly took his eyes off the shocking field and collected his emotions.

Suddenly, however, he spotted a tilted cannon. Although one foot was blown up, the gun carriage and gun chamber were still in good condition. Based only on the artillery skills learned in the army, he instinctively judged that this artillery might still be usable.

So he clung to the ground and crawled very carefully towards the broken cannon. When he got closer, his heart fluttered and he couldn't stop beating.

Fortunately, the sights on the field converged on the musket duel at the foot of the mountain. Where he was, there was a faint smoke of gunpowder. So that no one has the leisure to look at this sandy land full of dead people.

He briefly examined the various parts of the cannon and found that it was indeed still firing.

However, artillery needs shells, otherwise it will not be effective.

In a fit of rage, he kicked his foot away from the surrounding sand. But it didn't come to pass, and a few black things were immediately revealed. Seeing this, he almost shouted a good word.

Because these are a couple of shells buried in the dirt. If he hadn't kicked his feet and kicked the dirt, he really wouldn't have found it. It made it hard for him to imagine! With such intense artillery fire as before, these shells miraculously remained.

It's really sleepy to send a pillow!

He seized the time, scooped up a cannonball, and stuffed it into the cannon at a very fast speed. During the period, because of the comfort of the heart, it is expressed on the face. So much so that he pulled the wound on his face, grinned in pain, and gasped.

Then I got a lighter out of my trouser pocket!

With a click, an orange flame instantly rose in front of my eyes. Thanks to the Ming Dynasty, each officer above the company level was regularly distributed cigarettes. Otherwise, he would not have carried a lighter with him, let alone lit the fuse at this critical moment.

When the burning sound of tearing and tearing sounded, he showed a row of big white teeth and smiled happily.

In the next second, the deafening sound of artillery fire rang out unexpectedly.

Liu Duofu also had uncomfortable tinnitus for the first time. But that doesn't stop him from looking!

I saw that the shell, in a parabolic posture, gracefully fell into the enemy troops watching the battle. And because the previous artillery was aimed at the enemy's artillery position, as soon as it fell, the fire swept everything around.

An even more terrifying roar also resounded in the sky along with the firelight. The whole mountain shook violently. Large sand and gravel were thrown into the sky, and in a short time, they fell back to the ground. Liu Duofu wanted to take a few more looks, but the artillery at the foot of the slope suddenly slipped into the deep pit. Liu Duofu, who was leaning on the side, followed the unstable figure and rolled towards the foot of the mountain.

The arrogant Johor musket unit was taken aback by the earth-shattering changes on the mountain. He didn't care about the Ming army on the opposite side, so he fled outside the field in a large array.

This relieved the suppressed Ming army. But after being pressed and beaten for so long, the Ming army also has a temper. Then they worked in a team of seven to destroy the fleeing musket units in batches.

(Thanks to the recommendation votes of book friends such as Yellow Potato, Qin Han Tang Ming, Quiet Nerd, Crimson Bear, and Foodie Zhang, I was supposed to continue the three watches today.) But things at home really affect the mood. So please forgive me, I'm really sorry that I didn't show my best state and complete the three watches. (To be continued.) )
