294 The general of the Goto clan
Looking back at the outside of the city gate, Shi Dazhu's command was also well organized, occupying the geographical advantage, plus the number of warriors attacking outside was small, but it was not too difficult.
When Lian Zining turned around, he happened to see the dragoons in front of him who were resisting the attack of the samurai squatting down, and the dragoons behind fired in unison, killing many samurai. Rao is those warriors are not afraid of death, and they have to temporarily retreat first, in order to attack again.
The situation has finally stabilized temporarily.
"These Ming people actually have firearms, and they are such powerful firearms!" Goto Baiju's face was ugly, and he muttered to himself: "Doesn't it mean that the country's firearms have been abolished for decades?" ”
Then a smile appeared on her face, even if she had a firearm.
Fortunately, the samurai class of Fuso basically practiced swordsmanship, and few practiced long-range shooting, so they had to fight the dragoons in close combat.
There was a little silence outside for a while, and then Lian Zining heard the clear scolding and commanding voice of Wudao Baiju, Lian Zining's face suddenly changed, no matter in his previous life or present life, he knew a lot about Fusang's language, and when he heard Wudao Baiju shouting, it was clear: "Attack with fire!" Kerosene! ”
The rotten ship also has three catties of nails, and the Goto clan, as one of the four largest daimyo in Kyushu, has occupied Hizen over the years and accepted merchants from all over the world, so it is impossible to say that they don't understand such things as fire oil. After all, in this era, Middle-earth and Black-clothed Food had already used fire oil on a large scale as early as 800 years ago, and there were many places near Fuso to produce fire oil.
Now fire oil has been used in many aspects such as paint, lighting, etc., and of course, more military. The rockets used in the Ming Dynasty's bows and crossbows were glued to the oil.
Then I heard a burst of echoes, dense footsteps, from near to far, and it was obvious that many samurai had gone to fetch the oil of fire.
Lian Zining tightened his brows, pondering carefully, his fifty or so people were huddled in such a small area, it was impossible to dodge the attack of fire oil, and things like fire oil were extremely vicious, and they couldn't get down if they stuck to their bodies until they burned out. The dragoons were all wearing cotton armor and were stained with fire oil, and they were afraid that the end would be extremely miserable.
Goto Baiju's move is really ruthless!
At such critical moments, he was unusually clear-headed, which was the most basic requirement for a commander-in-chief, and at this time, an idea suddenly popped into his mind - perhaps, this is an opportunity!
However, if you do this, there will be huge casualties!
Lian Zining flicked his teeth fiercely, it is better to suffer heavy losses than to let people be trapped here and burned to death like dead pigs!
He turned around and whispered, "Dazhu, twenty brothers for you, can you block those warriors outside?" ”
Shi Dazhu didn't know what he was thinking, so he smiled and touched the blood on his face: "Although my lord brings people, it will be enough to leave fifteen brothers under the mark!" ”
The wind behind him sounded again, Shi Dazhu turned around suddenly, turned around and took a step, and the copper hoop giant stick in his hand viciously smashed the knife in the hand of a warrior, and then smashed it on his head, and suddenly his brain burst out.
"Good!" Lian Zining nodded: "Leave fifteen people for you over there, and you must hold on until Xiong Tingbi arrives!" ”
"Yes, sir!" Shi Dazhu responded with a bang.
Taking advantage of the time to prepare the fire oil over there, Lian Zining gathered the remaining thirty-five dragoons, ordered everyone to put the five thunder gods on the bullets and fire ropes, and put the crossbow arrows on the god arm crossbow at their feet, and then gave such an order.
Everyone whispered in response, and soon stood in four neat rows.
Lian Zining stepped forward, his body bent slightly, his hands against the two carts, and he tried his best, and finally, he slowly pushed the carts, and the two carts were moved, revealing the passage of the city gate.
At this time, the situation inside the Wudao Mountain City was also revealed in front of Lian Zining - outside the cave of the city gate, there was a dead corpse, and the blood was flowing all over the ground, sticking to the soles of people's feet, and there was a feeling that they couldn't pull it out.
There were more than 200 samurai besieging outside, but now less than half are left, and the rest must be preparing fire oil, or under the huge flower tree, the white chrysanthemum of Goto with a gorgeous dress and a high crown and a folding fan in his hand is surrounded by several maids and generals, and his face is full of bamboo.
When they saw that the two carts were actually moved out of it, the faces of all the Fuso people could not hide their surprise.
Goto Baiju's face changed, and the folding fan in his hand pointed forward, and said loudly: "Prepare to meet the enemy......"
But it's too late!
The moment Lian Zining pushed the two carts away, the whole person rushed forward, and at the same time shouted: "Shoot!" ”
The dragoons standing in the first row coldly pulled the trigger in their hands, and then the next moment, the crisp sound of gunfire rang out again.
After the first row finished shooting, he immediately squatted down, then inserted the Five Thunder God Machine into the pocket on his waist, and then reached out and picked up the Divine Arm Crossbow placed at his feet.
At this time, the second platoon began to shoot! When you're done shooting, crouch down and pick up your Divine Arm Crossbow.
Shoot in the third row, crouch down, and pick up the Divine Arm Crossbow!
Shoot in the fourth row, crouch down, and pick up the Divine Arm Crossbow!
In order to attack the dragoons guarding the cave of the city gate just now, all the samurai were crowded forward, and they were all piled up in front of the cave of the city gate, crowded densely.
Thirty-five dragoons, thirty-five five Thor, one hundred and seventy-five barrels, and one hundred and seventy-five lead bullets hit the dense crowd, causing at least seventy casualties!
The reason why such a huge result can be achieved is inseparable from the tactic of segmented shooting, after the human body is shot, and then falling, there is a buffer for a period of time, if it is a dense shooting, a row of shots, the lead bullet will inevitably hit the human body that has become a dead body, causing waste. As for the sectional shooting, when the first row squats down, and when the second row fires, the corpse that was shot on the opposite side has also fallen, so the second row of soldiers who shoot behind can hit the living people on the opposite side.
In Lian Zining's time and space, the oriental segmented firing tactics first appeared in the iron artillery team under the command of Fuso Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and in the later invasion of Korea, the peasant army of North Korea was beaten to the ground. Later, the three major expeditions of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty sent troops to aid Korea, and the Liaodong Iron Cavalry led by Li Rusong, the son of Li Chengliang, also suffered a lot of losses under these three attacks.
But now, these three blows have been used on the Fusang people, and they can be regarded as self-defeating.
The formation of the Fuso samurai, which was originally dense and thick, suddenly only had a small tail left, and the front was smashed to pieces, although those Fusang samurai received that kind of die-hard education since childhood, but looking at the dead corpses in front of them, they couldn't help but be afraid.
At this time, Lian Zining's voice sounded again: "Release the arrow!" ”
The dragoons in the first row were holding their crossbows flat again, and they shot powerful and fierce crossbow arrows!
Then the second row, the third row, the fourth row!
At this time, the defects of these warriors who did not have long-range shooting weapons were revealed, and they could only be beaten passively, and if they rushed up, then Lian Zining would simply be unable to ask for it, in that case, the others would not dare to use the fire oil tactics again.
After a few rounds of shooting, the remaining Fuso samurai were no more than twenty people, and at this time they all shrank and retreated under the flower tree, guarding in front of Goto Baiju.
If there was no threat from those upcoming fire oils, Lian Zining would definitely order his subordinates to keep shooting and crucify them to death at this time, but not at this time.
He sprang up with an arrow and shouted, "Brothers, follow me and kill!" ”
After that, the saber in his hand slashed hard, and the whole person ran out.
Behind him, thirty-five dragoons burst into their throats, their eyes were red, and they raised their sabers in their hands and slashed out!
At this moment, Lian Zining, who was at the front, suddenly flashed an alarm in his heart, and the whole person tilted to the side, and glanced at the corner of his eye, and saw a flash of black light shooting rapidly, which was the crossbow arrow that killed Wudao Cunxuan just now. He instinctively waved the horse chopping knife in his hand, trying to cut off the crossbow arrow, but he didn't expect that the knife and arrow intersected, making a sound of gold and iron, Lian Zining actually felt a soreness in his arm, the tiger's mouth was cracked, and blood flowed out.
The power of this crossbow arrow is so great! And it turned out to be made of gold and iron, Lian Zining was not cut off by the crossbow arrow, but he fought hard, and the crossbow arrow also deviated from the direction and shot squarely at the body of a dragogue behind Lian Zining.
The three-layer foam nail cotton armor decorated with iron leaves on the surface could not withstand the huge force of the crossbow arrow, and the steel crossbow arrow, which was two feet long and the thickness of the little finger, was nailed into it fiercely, and the blood-stained tip of the arrow penetrated through the back. The dragoon's face was quickly covered with a layer of black gas, and he fell to the ground and died without snorting.
Lian Zining's eyes were cracked, and the corners of his eyes were about to break blood, since the formation of the Wu Yi Army, the dragoons have always been invincible with their sophisticated tactics and equipment piled up with silver, and they have never been killed in the face of three times the white-robed army. And now, finally, the first dragoon, killed in battle!
"I'm going to kill you!" Lian Zining's long knife pointed at the white chrysanthemum of Wudao, his face full of hideousness.
Seeing his expression, Goto Baiju, who was so ruthless that he didn't even blink an eye to kill his father, couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
"Brothers, avenge the brothers who died in battle!" Lian Zining shouted and rushed out!
"Revenge!" The dragoon's eyes were blood-red and he hissed and shouted.
At this time, the samurai who went to fetch the oil had not yet turned around, Lian Zining and the others had already killed Goto Baiju, and there was an indescribable throbbing in his heart, if he could capture and kill Goto Baiju, the situation would be reversed immediately!
"Kill!" Lian Zining's mouth coldly burst out of a word as hard as steel, a warrior screamed in his mouth and slashed over, Lian Zining waved his katana, and fell down, the samurai let out a terrible scream, and the knife in his hand could no longer be held, it turned out that half of his palm had been cut off by Lian Zining. Lian Zining took a step forward and swung his knife lightly, his screams came to an abrupt end, and a large amount of blood mixed with blood foam splattered out of his half-broken throat.
Lian Zining kicked him away, stepped forward and stabbed him again, stabbing into the chest and abdomen of a Fuso samurai, and the chopping knife revealed a bright tip from the back, and he dragged it diagonally to the right, which was to cut a huge hole in the samurai's waist, almost cutting off half of his waist!
Lian Zining took the lead and stabbed into the Fusang warriors like a sharp knife. As he stretched out his hand, the dragoons and Fuso samurai also exchanged hands.
"Kill!" A dragoon half-crouched, unslashed the slashed katana, and then slashed horizontally with his waist sword, which tore the samurai's thin kimono and slit his throat.
Blood splattered his head and face, but he didn't have time to dodge the other knife, the sharp katana slashed at his belly, breaking through the cotton armor, cutting a big hole in his stomach, and all the colorful intestines and stomach flowed out, looking extremely miserable. The dragoon was unconscious, he smiled, scooped up his intestines, stuffed them into his stomach, and the end of the intestines was tied in a knot at his waist. Turn around and grin at the samurai who attacked you!
How could these Fuso warriors have ever seen such hob meat, meat and oil? It's stupid to watch. The Fuso warrior who attacked him turned pale, and when he saw him, it was like seeing a ghost, and when he saw that his blood-stained face actually smiled, he couldn't help but feel frightened, and let out a strange scream, and turned around and ran.
"Die!" The dragoon strode forward, and the saber slashed across the back of the Fuso samurai, and the sound of broken flesh rang out, and the samurai threw himself on the ground, kicked his legs, and saw that he was dead.
A dragoon slashed the throat of a samurai, and was slashed off by a katana behind him, splitting his head in half and bursting out of his brain!
Blood splattered, swords and swords, just in an instant, this place has become a bloody slaughterhouse!
The dragoons led by Lian Zining continued to advance, and in a blink of an eye, they had already killed all the remaining Fuso warriors, and in the blink of an eye, under the flower tree, only Goto Baiju and a dozen generals guarding her side were left.
At the same time, Lian Zining also paid the price of seven dragoons killed in battle and three seriously injured!
Such hand-to-hand combat, with me without him, is extremely tragic!
"Kill!" Lian Zining didn't pause, raised his knife and killed!
Goto Baiju's face was already innocent, and although she still maintained her composure on her face, her slightly trembling fingers and skirt exposed her nervous mood.
As soon as she waved her hand, those generals nodded in unison, and they greeted Lian Zining and the others.
In front of Lian Zining, there was a general, she was one meter seven tall, much taller than ordinary Fusang men, tall and tall, and her appearance was also delicate, her whole body was wrapped in the silver-white heavy plate armor carved with brilliant red cherry blossoms, she looked like a steel puppet! Lian Zining didn't underestimate her just because she was a woman, in fact, such a full-body plate armor weighed thirty or forty pounds, and being able to wear this kind of heavy plate armor and still maintain such a mobile ability was enough to show their strength!
Their strength is probably much stronger than that of ordinary samurai. At least Lian Zining knew that only a small number of elite soldiers in Wu Yi's army could wear such heavy armor and have such speed and agility.
Lian Zining slashed down with the saber in his hand, and the general raised his knife to block, but he didn't expect Lian Zining to use a false move, his body was short, and the knife style was an extremely tricky turn, from a straight chop to a horizontal cut, and slashed at the neck of the general.
They are wrapped in heavy armor all over their bodies, and to deal with such a steel monster-like enemy, it is best to use heavy weapons such as axes, axes, and sledgehammers to hammer them, and if they use knives, they have to look for a few flaws in their bodies.
But I didn't expect that the general didn't dodge, but the shoulder was slightly on the side, and the horse chopping knife was cut on her shoulder armor, the thick shoulder armor was just cut open a three-point deep mark, and she was slashed hard, and her katana was also slashed heavily to Lian Zining's chest, Lian Zining couldn't dodge, so she had to turn sideways and push hard with her shoulder, only to feel a clear pain coming from her heart, and then she saw that a deep hole had been cut on her shoulder, and blood was gurgling out of it.
One round, it's injury. It's not that Lian Zining is inferior to her, but the other party's armor is too advantageous!
Even Zining is like this, not to mention the other dragoons.
These dozen or so generals are all carefully cultivated generals of the Goto clan, in fact, this is also a habit that has just emerged in Fuso over the years, if there is a noble princess born in the family, when she is three years old, she will choose from all the girls under the age of five in the entire territory, girls with strange bones and beautiful appearances to come to the mountain city. There will be about a hundred of them, and then they will be taught from an early age to read and write, poetry, culture, songs, etiquette, and even how to serve men. And, of course, the most important point - martial arts!
They will be cultivated as the best elites, the assassination skills of the major series of ninjas, the hidden skills, the frontal fighting ability of the warriors, the explosive power of the **, and even the ability to arrange the troops as generals, respond to the situation, and command the battle array.
The training was extremely cruel, even similar to the ancient Greek Spartan tragedy, and 80% of these girls who were born weak would die because of excessive exercise, unreasonable training methods and harsh corporal punishment. Out of a hundred, there are only twenty people left in the end.
But the rest of these girls are not only ninjas who are proficient in assassination and hidden, but also all-rounders who are good at using hot and cold weapons such as knives, guns, bows and arrows, muskets, etc., and can also be used as a qualified general.
To put it simply, it is an elite talent who can be inside and outside, can fight and command, and is all-round in civil and military affairs.
Of course, the most important thing is that they are loyal to the princess they serve.
In Fuso, they are called - Servants!
