readx; In the face of the overwhelming tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry swept over like angry waves, Li Dingguo Hesheng knew that this was not only a good opportunity to consume the enemy's troops, but also a severe test for the Qin soldiers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAfter all, they only have 3,000 infantry, and once the chariot formation is broken through, it will only be left to be slaughtered. Therefore, there is no need to save firepower at this time, and it is necessary to give the Mongols a head-on blow and knock down their ferocious arrogance.

Therefore, all the firearms of the Qin soldiers immediately opened fire, and the entire car array was suddenly shrouded in gunsmoke. At this time, there is no need to fire a salvo, whether it is a bird gun, a Lumi gun, a rapid-fire gun, or a Fran cannon, as long as it is reloaded, it will be fired immediately. After a while, some of the Fran cannons were turned red, and the soldiers had to pour precious drinking water on them to cool them down as quickly as possible.

And the Mongols really played their lives this time, as soon as they entered the range of the Franco's cannons, they were knocked down in a large area, but the cavalry that followed behind only rode their horses to bypass the smashed corpses and continued to rush forward.

After the baptism of Franco's cannons and rapid-fire cannons, and into the range of the birds, the Mongols suffered even more casualties, and almost fell in pieces. But the fury of vengeance had filled the simple and cruel minds of the Mongol cavalry, and they still stubbornly pushed forward until they were only forty or fifty paces from the chariot formation.

At this time, due to the people turning over on their backs, many dead bodies of Mongols and war horses had been piled up on the battlefield. The Mongols actually used these corpses and their own horses as cover to form a wall of flesh and blood, and fired arrows fiercely at the chariot array from behind the wall.

At this time, the power of the Qin soldiers' bird guns was immediately greatly reduced, and the battlefield temporarily showed a stalemate. The range of the Mongol bow and arrow was about eighty paces, while the distance between the two sides was only fifty paces, and the arrows could easily pass over the chariot and fall into a circular formation. Although Qin Bing had already taken protective measures, he couldn't do everything after all. In particular, the sappers who were responsible for carrying ammunition for the front-line bird-bearers could not hide under their shields, and had to risk their lives to bend over and struggle through the dense rain of arrows like flying locusts.

The casualties of the Qin soldiers also increased dramatically, and in less than a meal, dozens of bird-stalkers and sappers were killed, and hundreds of them were wounded, and even the artillerymen in the center of the car formation were killed by arrows.

The green grassland was dyed crimson with blood, and the eyes of the Qin soldiers also spewed out the same color of anger! Liu Quanzhong ignored the arrows flying all over the sky, ran into the artillery position in three steps and two steps, and roared: "Aim at that pile of dead corpses for me to shoot a salvo, bomb it!" ”

However, due to the proximity of the distance, the "corpse wall" of the Mongols had already entered the dead end of the Franco's cannon fire. Li Dingguo immediately said: "Immediately push the Franco cannon behind the chariot and shoot flat from the gap!" ”

This trick of "artillery flat fire" was Zhu Youzhen's first initiative in the Battle of Jizhou, and to put it bluntly, it was to use the Franco machine gun as a bird's gun. Previously, because of the stereotype of thinking, the Ming army believed that the cannon was used to attack distant targets, so the muzzle of the cannon must be pointed diagonally upwards and a parabola was played so that the shells could hit farther.

However, the purpose of Zhu Youzhen's "flat shooting" was not to hit a long distance, but to solve the problem of dead ends in artillery firing and to make up for the lack of firepower of the birds. The artillery immediately received the order, and Liu Quanzhong personally went into battle shirtless, struggling to push the heavy Franc machine gun cart towards the chariot.

At this time, due to the temporary loss of artillery support, the defensive pressure of the Qin soldiers increased sharply, and more and more Mongolian cavalry rushed behind the "corpse wall" and joined the team that fired arrows. The Mongols were known for their archery skills, with less than a foot between chariots, but their sharp arrows could often penetrate accurately from a distance of fifty paces and hit the Qin soldiers' birds. And in order to suppress the Mongols and prevent them from continuing to advance, the birdmen also fought desperately and kept shooting at the enemy. The pikemen in the back could not help for the time being, so they also took off their spare short bows, picked up the arrows fired by the Mongols, and threw them back with all their might.

"Poof!" Liu Quanzhong, who was about to get close to the chariot, was suddenly hit by an arrow in his shoulder, which was so deep in the bone marrow that he almost didn't sit on the ground. But he gritted his teeth and insisted on working with several artillerymen to push the Fran cannon behind the chariot. The medics hurriedly came over and wanted to pull out arrows to heal his wounds, but Liu Quanzhong pushed them away and shouted: "Lao Tzu doesn't have to worry about it, go and treat the seriously injured!" What are you still doing in a daze, immediately reload Lao Tzu with ammunition, do you still want Lao Tzu to do it himself! ”

When the artillerymen saw the battalion commander commanding the battle with arrows on his shoulders, they were all moved and gritted their teeth, and tried their best to set up the Franc cannon parallel to the ground as quickly as possible, and loaded the gun into the mother gun, and shouted while lighting the fuse: "Dodge, dodge, dodge!" ”

The Birdman and the Pikeman hurriedly dodged backwards, and almost at the same time, there was a loud "boom", and the hot solid bullet was already flat and empty, hitting the corpse wall fifty paces away!

The corpse wall was originally piled up in two layers in front and back, more than a person high, and the round lead bullet could not penetrate at all, only stirring up clouds of blood mist. Not to mention the corpse wall, even the stone wall and the iron wall can't help but bombard the shells at such a close distance. In an instant, the sky was full of flesh and blood, and the entire corpse wall was crumbled into a huge gap, and the Mongols who were hiding behind and firing arrows were caught off guard, and they were all hit by the huge impact and flew into the air!

"Boom, boom!" The Franco's cannons roared one after another, and the Mongols' corpse wall was shattered. The Mongols, who were lucky not to be injured by the shells, were all so frightened by the extremely bloody scene in front of them that they forgot to release their arrows for a while!

At this time, half of Liu Quanzhong, who was commanding the battle, was already stained red with blood, but he didn't realize it. Seeing that the flat shooting was successful, he couldn't miss the opportunity, so he immediately shouted: "Bird gunner, get on the chariot and shoot, fight the dog!" ”

At this moment, the Bird Gun had already taken advantage of the Furlong cannon to open fire, and hurried to complete the reload. At the sound of the order, all the bird-gunners climbed onto the top of the chariot, regardless of the shooter and the loader, as long as they had guns in their hands, they all raised their guns and opened fire on the Mongols behind the collapsed corpse wall. This was almost double the firepower of a normal salvo, like a plough that had just been plowed by an iron plough and sifted through an iron sieve, and the Mongols were once again struck down.

"Come down !!" Liu Quanzhong roared again, because by this time the Furlong cannon had already finished reloading again. Knowing the power of the Fran cannon, the gunners jumped out of their vehicles as far away as they could.

In an instant, one Franc cannon spewed flames again, firing out the cannonballs with the size of the bowl. Looking at the Mongols on the other side, except for those who were frightened and fled, they couldn't find a complete corpse, just like the meat stuffing that had just come out of the meat grinder, and the corpse wall had become a mountain of corpses!
