Originally, I thought that if I broke the minefield, it would be victory in sight. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoBut the tight iron fence in front of me, the number of antlers behind the iron fence, and the ditch between the antlers and the iron fence that was a full man's depth......

At that moment, Geng Zhongyu wanted to cry without tears.

"The rebels are fifty paces from the range......."

“....... Thirty steps ......."

......

"Ten Steps...... The rebels are within range, please show the general! ”

At one end of the iron fence, the garrison artillery is trying to calculate the design range of artillery fire, and at the other end.

"General, the iron fence has been cut in a section, enough for a large army to march!"

"General, the pontoon bridge has been built, and the army is enough to march into ......"

"General, the antlers and thistles have been partially cleared, the passage has been opened, and the army can advance!"

When his subordinates reported that the channel had been opened, although he was a little uneasy in his heart, but at this moment, Geng Zhongyu still had any choice.

"The whole army obeys the order and marches quickly!"

Just as thousands of Geng's troops were passing through the opened roads one after another, on the other side, at this moment, Bai Gui, the captain of the garrison, was looking through the binoculars with a solemn face at the rebels rushing on the opposite side. There was a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Someone! Tell the artillerymen, wait until the rebels are over, and then open fire! ”

With Bai Gui's order, not long after, the originally silent garrison defense line was bursting with artillery for a while, and dense shells crossed the sky before dawn, but it was overwhelmingly smashed towards the Geng army who was rushing out.

"Boom!"

When the sparks that crossed the sky brushed the night sky before dawn, the light seemed so familiar to Geng Zhongyu.

"Not good! Come back! Come back! ”

When Geng Zhongyu realized that it was nothing else that crossed the sky, it was the life-threatening ammunition, and it was already too late.

Nearly fifty artillery pieces, including twenty heavy cannons! Launched together, but it is a grand view!

And Bai Gui's request is very simple, continuous bombardment for half an hour! No stopping!

In the face of the overwhelming shells, Geng's army was crying and screaming, and there was no possibility of retreating, because the artillery fire had blocked all the retreat routes, and the only way to escape was to move forward.

"Brothers, today, we have no way to retreat, if the brothers go with the general, as long as they break through the distance of one mile ahead, we can still have a glimmer of life!"

At this moment, in the midst of the artillery fire, Geng Zhongyu seemed to be much more sober, because he understood that if they could advance another mile, they would be able to get rid of the artillery attack, because it was the defense line of the official army.

"Kill!"

Regarding Geng Zhongyu's words, those rebels didn't know when they actually mustered up their courage, it seemed that they had understood that there was no turning back from the bow, and there was no way to survive if they didn't advance, and there might be a glimmer of life if they moved forward.

In the midst of the artillery fire, with a burst of shouts of killing, the remaining remnants of Geng's army mounted their horses one after another, charging towards the front of the imperial army line, completely ignoring the iron thistles scattered on the ground.

In this way, one horse fell, and the other horse stepped on the corpse of his companion and continued to charge, but the scene was quite shocking!

"It's really not afraid of death!"

Under the telescope, Bai Gui couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.

"The order goes down, the shieldman comes forward, the axe hand follows, and the firecracker chooses the favorable terrain and prepares to shoot!"

The garrison's musket is the latest firing pistol developed by the Empire, using a copper fire cap detonator, although the technology is not very complete, but compared to the bird gun, the three-eyed gun, or even the flintlock pistol, whether it is the rate of fire, or the 'blind fire' rate, it is definitely not a thing on the same level.

At this moment, the rebels in the artillery fire are already three or four, except for being directly hit by the artillery fire, but they all fell because of the thistle terrestris, and were trampled to death by their own cavalry.

When the rebels finally broke out of the artillery belt, and before they had time to catch their breath, they were greeted by the dense projectiles from the garrison.

"Lie on one side! Lie on one side! ”

In the face of the guns and bullets from the garrison, the Geng cavalry finally escaped death, but in a moment another batch fell, if it were not for the Geng cavalry was mostly from the old part of the Dongjiang River, after a long time of killing, I am afraid that the whole army would have been wiped out at this moment.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! ”

And taking advantage of the moment when the garrison stopped, Geng Zhongyu did order to start firing arrows.

Because it is not conducive to the use of bird guns and three-eyed guns on horseback, most of the cavalry in the Geng army use bows and arrows, because they are from Liaodong, and the Geng army uses compound bows like the Houjin people.

Aggrieved, really aggrieved, if you want to say that you have come all the way, you will suffer heavy losses, but you will still be beaten hard by the other party, and you haven't even been in close contact with the opponent, and the team will lose most of it, so how not to be aggrieved.

Therefore, the Geng cavalry here put up their arrows, but they were extremely hardworking.

"Shieldman step forward!"

In the face of the archers from the rebels, the shield bearers who had already prepared stepped forward with their shields raised, followed by heavily armored sword and axe bearers who thought they were overpowering.

"Bang dang! Bang dang! ”

Because the shield was made of fine ironwood and steel, the bow and arrow from Geng's cavalry could only rub against it to create a spark, and it could not enter the shield in the slightest.

"Kill!"

Seeing that the bow and arrow did not work, the cavalry of the Geng army at this time drew their sabers one by one, wanting to go forward on horseback and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the garrison.

And at this moment, something happened that surprised Geng's cavalry, but the shield that should have been raised turned out to be twenty steps away from a vacancy, and behind that vacancy, a black object appeared.

Although I don't understand it, the situation has reached this point, and there is still time for scruples.

"Brothers, the killer will go up! Avenge the dead brothers! ”

With Geng Zhongyu's roar, Geng's cavalry charged forward, but it became more and more full of blood!

And at this moment, with a continuous sound of 'popping', those Geng cavalry who were still charging forward seemed to have seen hell.

But I saw that tongues of fire gushed out from the mouth, and then countless cavalry fell to the ground, and they couldn't stand it.

The nightmare seemed to be far from over, and behind the shield there were countless wooden handle-like objects that were overwhelming, and when they fell to the ground, there were bursts of explosions.

"It's a grenade! It's a grenade! Oh my God! ”

At this moment, Geng Zhongyu was desperate, he knew about the grenades of the empire, but there was no configuration in Geng's army, because they were not troops directly under the empire.

As for the moment in which the flame shoots out, it is called a cannon, and the emperor gives it the name: General Wuwei. This is a new gadget designed after the invention of thunder mercury, firing pins, and fire caps in the Empire, which are better than artillery against cavalry.

The cannon is an imitation of the green cannon of later generations, and there is a hand-cranked thing behind the gun, but because the firing pin process is not very perfect, it is easy to generate heat after a long time of shaking, although there is cold water to cool down, but it is still only after the shooting of a stick of incense, the firing pin must be replaced, and the heat dissipation is sufficient.

Because the development of this thing is highly confidential in the military, and the number is limited, there are only five Dengzhou garrisons at this time, and they are specially approved by the emperor.
