The night is dark, the moon is dark and dark, the spring is still light, and it is still cold in the middle of the night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In front of the west gate of Fengyang, the fog was thick at this time, and the visibility was less than ten meters.

A group of armor soldiers who were running back and forth, under the supervision of the officers, adjusted their weapons as quickly as possible.

It seemed that the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and the feeling of nervous depression made everyone a little breathless.

Han Yu, who was standing at the head of the city, was speechless in shock as he looked at the dazzling array of firearms, and at this time, the west gate of Fengyang had completely become a gathering place for open firearms.

On the fixed gun carriage, the firing range is as long as five miles, and the powerful Hongyi cannon, the black hole of the cannon muzzle is intimidating.

Next to the erection of a lot of short firing intervals, can cover the killing of spacious sector Franc machine.

There are also mountain tiger squat guns that are mobile and flexible, and the use is like a modern mortar, and other hand-held firearms such as the Thunderbolt System, the Three-Eye System, and the Kidnapping System are all available.

What made Han Yu most pleased was that among the firearms, there were still many '10,000 enemies'.

This large-scale explosive incendiary weapon can be regarded as an early incendiary bomb, weighing 40 kilograms, the outer skin is made of mud, and it is packed in a wooden frame box for safety, but it is a sharp weapon for defending the city.

In fact, from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the production of artillery was considerable, and the casting process was also superb, but there were also many problems.

Although ancient Chinese medicine had the concept of equal body size, there were six methods of drawing and architectural design.

However, it is a pity that in ancient China, there was no similar concept of "modulus", and most of them were measured by weight.

In this way, it is far from taking the ratio of the gun body to the caliber as a modular parameter, so that the performance of the combination of the dimensions of each part of the gun is much inferior.

In addition, large firearms are extremely heavy and have great recoil.

It has the disadvantages of being heavy and difficult to lift, and it cannot be continued, so that firearms can only be used as a weapon to defend the city most of the time, and cannot be used in field battles.

Although there are many drawbacks in the manufacturing process of firearms in the Ming Dynasty, it still leads the times, and the so-called foreign Yi makes muskets, and the Han people can only make fireworks, which is completely nonsense that does not understand history.

However, even if Keane has a systematic understanding of the firearms of the Ming Dynasty, it is by no means a simple matter to change the artillery casting system of an era.

Even if Han Yu is the son of heaven, it can't be solved in a few words, it requires a huge change.

What's more, the current imperial court is worried about internal and external troubles, the sky is as red as blood, five years of great hunger, six years of great floods, and seven years of autumn locusts, which is completely a sign of the destruction of the country.

Although Zhu Youzhen was diligent, he really couldn't spare his energy to care about the development and performance improvement of artillery.

However, these have nothing to do with Han Yu for the time being.

At present, the most important thing is to block Zhang Xianzhong's attack, hold Fengyang City, and save the lives of Lin Caier and Zhang's family in the silk shop next door.

The cold wind whistled endlessly, and the torches in his hands swayed and rose, as if they would be blown out at any moment.

Han Yu turned his head to look into the distance, the brightly lit Fengyang Mansion in the distance was still immersed in a joyful festive atmosphere, and the scene of singing and dancing made Han Yu sigh for a while.

If it weren't for Zhang Xianzhong's cruelty and murder, he would have slaughtered all the officials and their families, and Han Yu really wanted to persuade Zhang Tanghuai to abandon the city and surrender.

About half an hour passed.

Suddenly, in the misty night in the distance, there was the sound of horses stomping on the ground, followed by the sound of dense infantry footsteps.

With the officer's order, according to Zhang Tang's original order, the torches at the head of the city were exhausted, and only the military flags planted on the wall battlements were hunting in the wind.

The more than 10,000 Kou troops who came to Fengyang City and were ready to attack were Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates.

Unlike the Kou Army, which had just risen to prominence, those who had fought against the official army for many years and survived by luck became veterans.

And these veterans who crawled out of the pile of corpses and had combat experience were quickly promoted to lower-level officers, and the overall combat effectiveness of the Kou army continued to rise.

The Kou army even unexpectedly broke through the imperial army led by the famous general Hong Chengchou and set up a heavy siege in Henan.

Zhang Xianzhong led his troops to a long-distance attack, and came to Fengyang City by smashing Huanglong, intending to destroy the ancestral tomb of the Zhu family and give the court a salary.

The cavalry was on the side, the infantry was in the middle, the battle flags were hunting in the wind, and the blades in the hands of the soldiers of the Kou army flashed with a faint cold light.

Everyone stared at the towering Fengyang City, clenching the swords and guns in their hands, and the eyes of the Kou soldiers were full of fanaticism, eager to attack the city.

The reason why the morale of the Kou army is so high is that every time Zhang Xianzhong attacks the city, he not only burns and loots the army, but also depends on his personal ability to rob how many treasures and beauties he can rob.

Afterwards, Zhang Xianzhong did not ask, nor did he seize the demand, and Zhang Xianzhong made generous efforts against the officers and soldiers who had made great achievements, and he always talked about the reward of gold and silver, and there must be brave men under the heavy reward.

The rugged man Zhang Xianzhong stepped forward with a blade in his hand, looked at the dense fog outside Fengyang City and hesitated for a while, before signaling the generals around him to use torches to send a signal.

This was a signal to meet with the city to attack the city gates, and although the fog was thick, the fire was faintly visible.

It's just that the torches of the Kou soldiers have been shaking for a long time, but there is no movement at the west gate of Fengyang.

Just when Zhang Xianzhong was secretly suspicious, suddenly a torch rose from the city, rising and falling three times in a row.

This is the special code that has been made with the city and has conquered the city gate.

Zhang Xianzhong was overjoyed, and took advantage of the fact that the officials in the city were immersed in the festive atmosphere, and raised his arms to order the whole army to advance.

"Think twice, in case there is fraud in the city!"

Wang Dingguo, the former army general, stopped in front of Zhang Xianzhong's war horse and hurriedly admonished.

Zhang Xianzhong groaned slightly, and felt reasonable.

The officers and soldiers have always been cunning, so it is better to send some soldiers to find out what is going on with the ship of ten thousand years carefully.

At this time, the west city gate slowly opened until it was completely open, and the bluestone road in the city in the distance, the houses and shops were faintly recognizable.

Seeing that the gate of Fengyang City was open, Zhang Xianzhong's suspicions were gone, and he immediately planned to ride his horse in.

was only blocked by the former army general Wang Dingguo again.

Zhang Xianzhong said with displeasure on his face: "Time is not waiting for me, how can I cower and wince!" ”

The former army king Dingguo said: "How can the body of the handsome Jin Gui be in danger, the last general is willing to be a pioneer!" After speaking, he bowed and rushed towards the city gate with hundreds of people from his headquarters.

Kou Jun quickly approached the city gate, and suddenly a person standing in front of the city gate asked loudly: "It's Zhang Dashuai!" ”

"It's Ben Shuai!" Wang Dingguo, the general of the Kou army, was cautious and said casually.

"It turned out to be General Wang, Lord Yu, the officials and thieves at the city gate were all dead, and the inner city garrison was unaware, and this was the head of the general item."

The man standing at the gate said, throwing the head of a bloody man on the ground.

The darkness of the night and the thick fog made it impossible to see the true face of the corpse, but it was indeed a human head.

Although Wang Dingguo, the general of the Kou army, was cautious, he did not dare to delay the fighter, Zhang Xianzhong was notoriously short-tempered, and he didn't want to be punished with a cane.

Wang Dingguo hesitated, but still ordered more than 300 people to rush into the city.

It's just that the man who was standing at the city gate suddenly rose into the air strangely and quickly disappeared in front of the rebels.

It was dark and no one paid attention to the ropes hanging behind each other's backs.

Kou Jun, who had just entered the city gate, was stunned for a while, not knowing what was happening.

At this moment, there was a dull roar on both sides, and the two boulders that had been hanging on both sides of the city wall crashed down.

Wang Dingguo's eyes were full of fear, and he watched the boulder coming towards him, and suddenly Wang Dingguo and many Kou soldiers who had no time to avoid were smashed into meat sauce.

And the two boulders surrounded by minced flesh and blood plasma.

While smashing and killing many Kou troops, it just blocked the west gate of Fengyang City, completely blocking the way for the Kou army to rush into the city.
