Chapter 573: Buried Alive! No conscience cannon!

"Take care of your injuries!"

.

Fang He was actually a little unwilling. Lying for two months, I don't know how many battles I will miss again. Fortunately, in a short period of time, the Tartars will not be killed. After recovering from his injuries, there should be a chance to continue killing the Tartars.

Subsequently, Zhang Zhun came to the front line. Looking around, he felt like it was the Grand Canyon of the United States...... Well, not so exaggerated. But the terrain is very complex. There are many valleys, many ravines, and many ridges. There are no roads. There is no vegetation. There are many large and small caves. It feels a bit like a karst landscape in the southwest.

The Tiger Ben Army is here to compete with the Tartars, and it is really a bit difficult. In such a complex terrain, the superiority in weapons and numbers is much offset. And the Tartars chose to fight with the Tiger Ben Army here, which is also a little dependent. Tartars are the best at hunting. They are good at archery and good at hiding. In such terrain, the Tiger Ben Army is like prey, and it is easy to be attacked.

This is a different battle mode than all previous battles. It is only in the midst of such a battle for the islands that it happens. In the past battles, the Tiger Ben Army basically fought with the Tartars. It is clear at a glance what weapons and equipment the two sides have and how many people there are. Only here, nothing can be seen. All the tartars, like ground rats, are all lurking.

"Your Excellency!"

Lu Liangyu came up to receive Zhang Zhun.

"How's it going?"

Zhang Zhun asked thoughtfully.

"Not very good......"

Lu Liangyu replied in an obscure tone.

From the last time Zhang Yin reported to the present, the Huben Army Marines have killed another thirty-seven Tartars. However, there were also five casualties of its own. It is estimated that there are about 100 Tartars hidden in the cliffs and canyons. It will take some time to clear it all.

"Don't rush, take your time!"

"What we have is time!"

Zhang Zhun said cautiously.

The gunfire at the front line continued, and the soldiers of the Marine Corps, continued to play hide-and-seek in the labyrinth and Tartars. Faintly, you can still hear the provocative cries of the Tartars. From time to time, the wounded of the Tiger Army were carried out from inside. They suffered arrow wounds. Most of the arrow wounds come from the back. This fully shows that they were completely attacked by sneak attacks.

The strategy of the Tartars is obviously very simple, that is, to grab a cushion before dying. The Tartars on Lianyun Island must have the heart of death, and they want to entangle with the Tiger Ben Army to the end. The ratio of casualties among the Marines and Tartars is basically between ten to one and five to one. In other words, if ten Tartars are killed, the Tiger Army will have to pay a human life for itself.

It is indeed difficult to fight in such terrain without paying casualties. Of course, there is no doubt that the Tiger Ben Army will achieve the final victory. Even the Tartars on Cloud Island didn't have any reinforcements, and they didn't even have a way to retreat. The only option they have is to prolong their death a little. It's just that the casualties of the Tiger Ben Army made Zhang Zhun feel a little heartbroken.

There should be a better solution.

Zhang Zhun's face was a little gloomy, he pondered for a moment, and shouted coldly: "Gao Yu! ”

Gao Yu hurriedly came over: "Here!" ”

Zhang Zhun instructed: "Go and bring the big iron bucket on my ship." ”

Gao Yu agreed.

Soon after, Gao Yu took a few soldiers and carried a sturdy big iron bucket over. This large iron bucket is still quite weighty, and the barrel wall is much thicker than that of ordinary large iron buckets, which is obviously specially manufactured. It's just that they don't understand what the Governor wants to do with such a big iron bucket. It can't be used for bathing, right?

Zhang Zhun observed the surrounding terrain and found a place to bury the big iron bucket. The caliber of this big iron bucket is as thick as a person hugging it. The depth is about five feet. After being buried in the pit obliquely, it felt weird, and no one knew what Zhang Zhun was going to do.

Liu Dong and the others asked curiously: "My lord, what are you ......?"

Zhang Zhun said casually: "Take a plane for the Tartars." ”

The people around are puzzled, you look at me, I look at you, take a plane? What is Airplane? How do you get a Tartar on a plane?

Zhang Zhun pointed to the sky and said casually, "Let them fly." ”

The crowd was even more puzzled.

Flying?

Let the Tartars fly?

Zhang Zhun did not explain in detail. This thing can't be explained at all for a while. The big iron bucket he brought was actually used to make a conscienceless cannon. Since the Tartars thought that with the complex terrain, they could resist stubbornly, then the Tiger Ben Army simply bulldozed this place. Since you are ruthless enough, our Tiger Army is even more ruthless! A cannon without conscience is the best bulldozer.

The conscienceless cannon is actually a kind of earthen cannon invented by the People's Liberation Army in the Huaihai Battle in the later Liberation War, and the other name is Feilei, which is specially used for attacking fortifications, and the effect of defense is also good. To put it bluntly, it is a large pipe made of gasoline barrels, with a medicine bag placed below it as a driving force, and a large ** bag on top, which explodes after flying out and landing, which is terrifying. The frightened Kuomintang soldiers later called this kind of cannon a cannon without conscience.

Zhang Zhun didn't bring artillery to Lianyun Island this time, so he made some of these things for use. This secret weapon was originally intended to be used at the last moment when Cangzhou and Tatar were in the field. According to Zhang Zhun's estimate, at a distance of fifty meters, a ** bag fell, which could at least overturn a piece of Tartar cavalry. Unexpectedly, in Lianyun Island, he encountered such fierce resistance from the Tartars, so he ruthlessly ordered people to carry them out and give the Tartars another heavy blow. Anyway, Lianyun Island is a closed island, and it is not afraid of leaks.

In fact, the power of the conscienceless cannon is great, and the performance is not as good as the legend. In later battles, the No Conscience Cannon was not continued to be used. The main reason is that the firing range of the unconscionable cannon is actually very close, the farthest is only more than 100 meters, and the closest is only a few tens of meters. Aside from close contact with the enemy, it is of little use. As long as there are cannons, they will be replaced by cannons without conscience.

In addition to this, the accuracy is also a very troublesome thing. There is no conscience cannon in fact, there is no accuracy at all, it is completely a matter of luck. Unless it is a special ** bag, the error may be controlled within more than ten meters. Otherwise, the error of the ** bag thrown out by the big iron bucket is generally more than ten meters. It is basically impossible to hit the target accurately.

But now, didn't the Tiger Army just happen to be in close contact with the enemy? As long as all the messy terrain around is destroyed and the road is opened, there will be no way for the Tartars to hide. The conscienceless cannon does not need to hit the Tartars directly, it only needs to cause great deterrence, as long as the Tartars are driven out of their hiding places, they are not the opponents of the Tiger Ben Army at all. Without the powerful shock wave and lethality of the conscience cannon, it is specialized in this kind of work.

"Take the ** bag."

Zhang Zhun instructed his subordinates to place the big iron bucket and then operate it himself.

He first put some black gunpowder under the large iron barrel as a propellant. Then, press a standard ** bag on it, carefully check it, and make sure that the order is not messed up. The people around felt fresh and curious, and they gathered around one after another, but they were ordered by Zhang Zhun to leave ten zhang away. It's so powerful, and it would be terrible if it exploded inside the big iron bucket.

Soon, the lead of the propellant was ignited.

Subsequently, the lead of the ** bag was also ignited.

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound, the big iron bucket trembled violently, and a lot of white smoke came out of the barrel mouth.

I only saw the ** bag staggering out of the big iron bucket, as if it was drunk, constantly rolling in mid-air, and then landed on a piece of soil similar to an earthen wall twenty zhang away, bouncing twice, and finally lying there without moving.

"Boom!"

A moment later, a loud bang was heard, and the ** bag exploded.

Suddenly, a large piece of the dirt over there was blown up, and the whole thing fell down, and the smoke and dust flew up. The surrounding dirt slope was also shaken by the earthquake, and the earth and rocks continued to roll down as if an earthquake had occurred.

"Tartar!"

"There's a tartar behind the earthen wall!"

"Haha! There are tartars behind the earthen walls! ”

Liu Dong and the others suddenly shouted excitedly.

It turned out that behind the earthen wall, there were indeed Tartars hiding. Moreover, there are quite a few Tartars, at least a dozen. Among them, two are still white-armored soldiers. Their plan was that if the Tiger Army came forward, they would shoot arrows to stop the Tiger Army from approaching. If the Tiger Army bypasses by, they will hide behind and sneak attack. The problem is that the Tiger Army didn't come close at all, and volleyed them a big gift package. This time, they are absolutely miserable.

Five catties of black gunpowder exploded around him, how could he stop the flesh and blood? ** The bag fell, and they were immediately blown up to the point of bleeding, screaming miserably. The explosion creates a shockwave that even the best armor can't stop. The first to fall were the two white-armored soldiers. Because they were right in the epicenter of the explosion.

In the Huaihai Campaign, the Central Plains Field Army used a five-kilogram standard TNT**, which was extremely powerful and could kill all the people within 30 meters around. Now, what Zhang Zhun threw out was a ** bag containing only five catties of black gunpowder, and the power was naturally incomparable. However, the hidden Tartars do not have strong fortifications, and everyone has lowered a notch, which is basically flattened.

The surviving Tartars, who were still able to move, hurriedly fled backwards in a panic. The nearby Tiger Ben soldiers immediately opened fire. As a result, after a chaotic shot, all the Tartars were knocked to the ground. Zhang Zhun's strategy was not wrong, as long as the Tartars were forced out, they would not be able to escape from the guns of the Tiger Army.

"One more!"

"One more!"

"One more!"

The first shot achieved exciting results, and the surrounding officers of the Tiger Ben Army were all very excited, and they kept roaring. They all secretly sighed to themselves, it turned out that Zhang Zhun still had such a secret weapon in his hands, it was too powerful.

If the ** bag is sent up to explode manually, not only may you suffer from the arrows of the Tartars, suffer certain casualties, but it is also impossible to kill so many Tartars. Because the Tartars found out that the Tiger Ben army was coming, they would naturally withdraw. Only the ** bag thrown out by this big iron bucket can make the Tartar unguardable.

What's more, after the explosion of the ** bag, the surrounding terrain was basically wiped out, and the Tartars wanted to hide, but there was no room to hide. As long as the Tartars have nowhere to hide, they are certainly no match for the Tiger Army. If you fire more ** packs and change the surrounding terrain, the Tartar will be in trouble.

"Bang!"

Soon, the second ** bag was staggered out again.

This time, the distance was closer, only about fifteen zhang.

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, and the ** bag exploded.

The dirt slopes around the landing site were all blown up, and a large amount of earth poured down. It felt as if half of the mountain had been blown down. I don't know if any Tartars have been knocked down, but I can't see them in sight anyway. However, such an explosion was enough to make the Tartars tremble. Within the range of the conscienceless cannon, they dare not say that they are safe.

In fact, Rasai was a little scared.

The two ** bags that the Tiger Benjun threw just now exploded not far in front of him, and he was already aware of the serious consequences. He could even feel a powerful shockwave. The armor on his body can't stop the power of the ** bag at all. He was really a little scared.

The Tiger Ben Army didn't know where to get the strange things, and they actually used them against them. It's not his people at all, it's not the armor on his body that can stop it. The damage caused by this kind of earth-shattering explosion is too severe.

His first reaction was to step forward and destroy the big iron bucket, so that the Tiger Ben Army could not continue to throw ** bags. However, after seeing the tight defenses around the large iron barrel, he abandoned the idea. If the Tartars rushed out like this, the Tiger Ben army could kill them all.

However, if they continue to toss like this, they have only a dead end. The ** bag of the Tiger Ben Army will definitely bring them more serious damage. No matter where they are hiding, there is a chance that they will be blown up. The Tiger Army is obviously not going to let go of any place where there may be Tibetans.

But don't they have a better way? No! Since they didn't, they had to continue to lurk, continue to pray for the shaman's blessing, not to let this murderous ** bag blow up.

"My lord, let's do it!"

Zhang Yin and the others all said eagerly.

"Good!"

Zhang Zhun nodded.

When the precautions for the operation of the conscienceless cannon are about to be followed, tell them one by one.

In fact, there is no conscience cannon operation, there is no trick, this thing is the most primitive mortar, as long as there is no accident, as long as the ** bag is successfully thrown out, it is considered to have completed the operation. As for whether the landing point of the ** bag is controlled accurately, it can't be controlled for the time being, anyway, just don't hit your own people.

"Bang!"

Zhang Yin and others quickly mastered the operation skills and soon threw out the first ** package. ** The bag staggered in mid-air, and then landed heavily on the hillside twenty feet away.

Seriously, the operation of the No Conscience Cannon is much simpler than the ordinary Wyvern Cannon or something. There is no need to aim at all, there is no need for parameters, just put a propellant, put a ** bag, and then light the fuse, and the rest does not need to be bothered. Whether it's the range or the landing point, you can't control it.

"Boom!"

There was a loud noise, and the dirt slope over there was blown up and collapsed in pieces.

When it comes to sabotage, there's nothing better than this big guy, not even the redcoat cannon. After a loud bang, the position where the ** bag fell was basically unrecognizable. The surrounding unstable soil slopes have generally collapsed. Of course, the range of the redcoat cannon is much farther than that of the unconscionable cannon.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The Marines were furious, and the projectiles continued incessantly.

Because black gunpowder was used as the propellant, the energy was not very large, and the chamber was not sealed, so there was no problem of high temperature of the barrel at all. In other words, as long as you don't stop, the big bucket doesn't need to rest. As long as you have enough packs, you can keep firing.

At this time, the Marines were energetic, everyone took shifts, constantly moving the position of the big iron bucket, and then kept throwing the ** bag out, sweeping all the suspicious places around. Regardless of whether there is a tartar or not, give a big gift package first.

The area of the middle mountainous area of Lianyun Island is not very large, where can it withstand such a waste? What's more, the places that have been ravaged by the conscienceless cannon have been occupied by the Tiger Army, resulting in the remaining Tartars having to retreat to smaller areas. The problem is that there is no conscience cannon to continue to keep up, and even the last piece of mountainous area has to be occupied.

A small group of Tartars hid in a valley, and as a result, the cliff above was completely shaken and collapsed, and a dozen Tartars were buried alive. This is what Rasai saw with his own eyes. Originally, he also wanted to hide in that valley, but then he walked away temporarily. If he hadn't gone away, he would have been buried alive now.

In fact, most of the Tartars were "injured by mistake" in this way. The ** bag of the Tiger Ben Army did not directly hit them, but it shattered the surrounding rocks, blew up the surrounding soil slopes, and even overturned the entire ridge. They were active in the valley, and if the rocks and dirt on it collapsed in large quantities, they would be buried alive.

Before that, they still had the opportunity to release cold arrows, and occasionally shoot one or two Tiger Ben troops. Now, it's absolutely impossible. Because, the terrain around the Tiger Ben Army has been wiped out. They want to lurk in the past, and it's impossible. The Tiger Army also seems to have a lot more snipers, and their marksmanship is very accurate, as soon as they show their heads, they will immediately attract gunfire. If you are not careful, you will be shot and immediately lie on the ground and will not move.

The Tiger Army's conscienceless cannon did cause great psychological pressure on the Tartars. Under this tremendous psychological pressure, some Tartars could not bear it anymore and made crazy moves. That night, two white-armored soldiers, with more than 20 Tartars, ran out of their hiding places and tried to sneak up on the big iron bucket of the Tiger Army. The results are predictable. All the Tartars who tried to sneak up were shot indiscriminately. Since then, no Tartar has dared to come up and attack.

"Quack!"

Lama Sai was so angry that he kept yelling at the Heavenly Tiger.

He believes that this is a completely unfair battle, and the Tiger Ben Army is completely bullying them for not having firearms. He believes that the Tiger Army should fight him fairly. He wanted to send someone to contact Zhang Zhun, and everyone was in the open space outside, lining up to fight. Later, however, he abandoned the idea. Because, in the open field, they are also not the opponent of the Tiger Army. Even, it is possible to die faster.

After a large number of his subordinates were buried alive, Rasai's life did not last long. Because, after a day of abuse, the area controlled by the Tartars is already very small. There are less than fifty remaining Tartars. Rasai was anxious and angry, and had no other choice but to hide behind a dirt slope to rest. Maybe a little tired, Rahai was confused for a while. When he woke up, he found that the big iron bucket of the Tiger Ben Army was already close to him.

He immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly stood up, trying to get out of the range of the large iron bucket. After he walked a few steps, he didn't know what he felt, so he subconsciously stopped, and then looked back. As if he had a clear idea, Rasai saw a black dot slowly expand in front of him. He was in a state of agitation, and hurriedly fell to the ground. Because, he saw clearly that this black spot was the ** bag that was thrown out.

**The bag fell on Rasai's side, about a foot away. After landing, the ** bag did not explode immediately, but rolled on the ground a few times. Suddenly Lay felt that his surroundings were quiet, as if he could only hear the sound of his own heartbeat. He even hallucinated as if he had returned home.

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, and Rasai felt his consciousness suddenly become in a trance.

When the violent explosion sounded, a wave of sound first reached his ears, which made him dizzy and had a feeling of wanting to vomit, and then a huge wave of air rushed to his face, and the tartars beside him were like leaves, and they were blown away by this wave of air, and fell heavily under the mountain, and a large amount of earth was poured down.

……

Two days later, the battle on Lianyun Island was declared over.

The Tigerben Marines slowly began to clean up the battlefield. At this time, there were no surviving Tartars on the battlefield for a long time. Judging from the collected Tartar corpses, most of the Tartars did not have any wounds on the outside, only black blood flowed from the corners of their mouths, ears, and noses. More tartars, however, were buried directly under the thick earth.

This brought a big question to Fang He—how many Tartars were there on Lianyun Island? The Marines of the Tiger Army, how many Tartars were eliminated in this battle? When reporting the number of enemies destroyed, Lord Governor demanded that it be very accurate, which was really fatal......
