"Kill!"

With the fierce sound of fighting, bursts of artillery pierced the sky, and uninterrupted volleys of guns were mixed in, and under the city of Hunyuanzhou, the Mongols and Han troops rushed to the city without fear of death. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the city, He Chenghao, the commander of the Zhenwei battalion, came and went to the city.

"Shoot! Shoot me hard, let these Jiannu see, the power of my Yong'an Army's firearms! ”

With He Chenghao's words, the artillery in the city fired another volley, and the fall on the ground was full of flying crumble and dust.

"Ahh

The battlefield is full of wailing, and those who have broken limbs or are hit by the galloping bird buckshot often do not die immediately, but no one will pay attention to them, and they will rush past them indifferently, leaving them to die a miserable death.

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking the air.

He Chenghao was startled and shouted: "Get down quickly, it's the Mongolian arrow!" ”

But when the battle was raging, the roar of He Chenghao could not be heard throughout the whole army, and the Mongols who rushed to the city at the risk of death were on the other side of the moat, bending their bows and arrows, and a round of arrows rained down on the city.

"Poof!" "Ahh My leg! ”

The city also continued to sound the miserable howl of the Zhenwei battalion soldiers, and several bird-gunners were aiming at the Mongols and Han troops rushing under the city, but a sound of breaking the sky sounded in the sky, and these bird-gunners raised their heads in horror.

I saw a dense rain of arrows shooting down in turns, and in just an instant, these bird-stalkers were shot into hedgehogs, and the standard leather armor on their bodies could not stop the Mongols' bows and arrows at all.

It was also at this time that the fourth siege of the Houjin army followed, and there were ladders set up at almost every battlement, and the Mongols rushed towards the city with their scimitars and bows and arrows on their backs.

"Oil pot, boiling oil!" The city kept ringing such orders, and it didn't take long for the cauldron to be set up in the city and suddenly fell down, and the dark yellow boiling oil slanted down.

The Mongols under the city immediately let out a terrible wail, and at that time, He Chenghao raised his torch and shouted hoarsely: "Release!" ”

The Mongols under the city saw the Ming army holding torches, and they already knew what to do, and when they saw the boiling butter under their feet, they naturally knew what would happen if the torch fell on it.

At the moment, even the Jurchen White Flag Supervision Team behind them didn't care about it, and put down the cloud ladder in their hands and fled backwards regardless of it.

But their movements were naturally not as fast as the soldiers of the Zhenwei Battalion in the city, and countless torches fell into the boiling oil under their terrified gaze.

In an instant, the flames of the prairie rose fiercely, the Mongols and the Han army struggled and screamed in the sea of fire, and finally the soldiers of the Zhenwei battalion in the city could smell a disgusting smell of burnt meat.

The fourth attack of the Houjin army ended in failure again, leaving behind the corpses that were scattered and scattered, retreating faster than when they rushed in.

The Zhenwei camp in the city cheered loudly when they saw this scene, but He Chengho still had a solemn face, looked at the white sea that had not lost a single point over there, and exhaled heavily.

He Chenghao followed Xiao Yi to fight with the Houjin army for a long time, and naturally knew the routine of the Houjin army, after fighting for so long, he and the Mongols consumed a lot, but Dolgon's inlaid white flag was not damaged at all, and he was full of energy.

Outside the city, Dolgon looked at the Mongols who had fled from the rout, and his heart was filled with deep disdain, but there was not a trace of it in his only eyes.

The white-flaged iron cavalry stood quietly behind Dolgon, and could only hear the constant sound of snorts, and the white-flag-inlaid Jurchen cavalry looked at this Hunyuanzhou city full of corpses, and the greed in their eyes was fully revealed.

"Push it out." A playful look flashed in Dolgon's eyes, and he said lightly.

As soon as the words fell, a tooth-sore creak came, and He Chenghao in the city was shocked, this... How is this possible!?

These cannons, about three meters long and weighing two tons, were improved Shenwei General Cannons, which were also called Hongyi Cannons by the Houjin people at this time.

Chongzhen's four-year slave chieftain Huanghuang Taiji set up a heavy army, also known as Wu Zhenchao's Harbin artillery battalion, which was led by Liaodong clan Tong Yangxing, Cao Zhenyan, etc., but there was no change.

However, in June of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Kong Youde, Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and others crossed the sea to surrender to Houjin, bringing more advanced cannon casting theories and craftsmen to Houjin.

Huang Taiji attaches great importance to it, and even calls Kong Youde "Heavenly Soldier", which means the Mandate of Heaven.

And recruited craftsmen from Liaodong in the original Ming Dynasty to specialize day and night, and finally produced four initial Hongyi cannons, and it was two of the Hongyi cannons that Dolgon brought at this time.

Now Houjin's Hongyi cannon is still in the most primitive state, far from the later red-coated cannon, and it is difficult to compare with the heavy Shenwei general cannon equipped on the Jingshi City.

However, He Chenghao knew that although these Hongyi cannons were much worse than the cannons on Jingshi City, they were much stronger than his own light Shenwei General Cannons on Hunyuan Prefecture City.

At present, the cities in Datong are still equipped with small copper and iron cannons, bowl mouth cannons, and Hudun cannons, and there are only a few more light Shenwei general cannons on the city of Hunyuan Prefecture.

The artillery in Datong Town is still refined, but it is much behind the artillery in various parts of Gyeonggi, and many of the gun models are still assembled during the Apocalypse.

Originally, the imperial court would replace new artillery types for various places every few years, but now the bandits in various places cannot be transported at all, and the imperial court is busy with internal strife all day long and has no time to take care of it, and the inland cities have not been replaced with new artillery for many years.

And most of the generals and officials of the local guard stations did not care about this matter, and even the original artillery was shoddy, and the hidden dangers such as exploding were serious, and no one would go to Beijing to get the artillery.

Up to now, the generals of Liaodong often fought with the Houjin, and attached great importance to the use of artillery, but these generals in the interior had not been in battle for a long time, and no one cared about this matter.

Seeing the muzzles of these two Hongyi cannons, the soldiers of the Zhenwei Battalion who were cheering in the city suddenly became silent.

"What kind of cannon is this?"

"What a big muzzle!"

He Chenghao's heart sank, it seems that after guarding it for so long, the urn city will still be lost.

Hearing that the Ming army in the city had become silent, Dolgon snorted coldly and said, "Open fire." ”

Tong Yangxing and Cao Zhenyan glanced at each other, and said with a flattering smile: "The slave obeys the master's order!" ”

After speaking, he ran back into the formation and turned directly from a docile sheep to a vicious wolf, with a fierce look, pointing to the city wall of Hunyuan Prefecture and roaring.

"Minions, boom on the city!"

When these Han army minions heard this, they were not at all happy, but immediately began to prepare for their work, and finally opened a wooden box, which could hold ten to twenty lead bullets, and at this time only contained four lead bullets of Hongyi cannons.

These lead bullets alone weigh nearly 20 catties, and it takes two Han soldiers to pick them up, and three to four Han soldiers to smoothly push them into the mother gun.

As the fuse was ignited, the smell of gunpowder came out.

"Bang!" Bang! ”

Two earth-shattering cannons shook the earth, hitting the urn city in Hunyuan Prefecture directly, just one shot, cracks appeared on the wall of the urn city, and the power of this cannon was especially evident.

Seeing this, Dorgon stroked his palms and laughed: "Good! The two of you are meritorious, after returning to Shengjing, Ben Beile will be the Great Khan of the Ming Dynasty, and the two of you will be promoted to the rank of knight! ”

Tong Yanghe and Cao Zhenyan knelt on the ground in surprise, thanked them again and again, and then returned to their respective formations to shout harder.

Feeling the trembling of the city wall under his feet, the noise of the sergeants of the Zhenwei battalion gradually rose, and the deputy commander came to He Chenghao's side and hugged his fists.

"My lord, the urn city is ruined, and I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the shelling, please abandon the inner city!"

Seeing that the Houjin people were loading cannons again, He Chenghao hatefully slapped the wall of the urn city: "After guarding it for so long, is it because of these two cannons, do you have to abandon it?" ”

The deputy commander of the Zhenwei battalion also sighed and said, "I didn't expect this Tartar to be able to make cannons." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two loud noises were made, one of which shot into the city from everyone's heads, smashing through people's houses, causing the people in the city to scream.

There was also a shot that hit the battlement directly on the urn city.

In an instant, the gravel flew, the battlement was directly shattered, and the three Zhenwei battalion spearmen behind the battlement were hit, and they turned into a puddle of broken flesh and blood without even screaming.
