"Boom~~!"

A flame rose from the rammed earth wall, which was one foot five feet high, and the heart-rending screams of the North Koreans could be heard in the distance.

"Tom! Tong! ”

The two Franc cannons then let out a deafening sound of cannonballs, and fist-sized shells slammed into the wall that was still shrouded in cyan smoke, sending dirt chips flying.

A mile away, Shang Kexi withdrew his gaze from the wall - after the three ballistas and 20 shells were fired, there was not even a ghost shadow visible on the rammed earth wall that was still crowded just now, and there was really nothing to look forward to—and continued to observe with great interest the "long-range firepower" in Chu Fan's mouth: next to the Eight Bull Crossbow, two soldiers were winding up with red faces; The ten guns of the two Franc machine guns have all been fired, and the gunners are holding wet rags to wipe the barrels of the guns and cool down the guns.

The Fuliao Army's style of play once again made Shang Kexi's jaw drop in surprise: can the siege war still be fought like this?

As early as noon, he asked Chu Fan why he didn't set up camp, and Chu Fan told him that there was no need, and he found that the Fuliao army was really different.

What he saw next was nothing like the siege he knew - it would be fought when it arrived! It is not at all like other Ming armies to build their own camps first, and the next day or even a little later to start the grinding siege, this difference in efficiency cannot be calculated; The reason why it can be so fast is because the Fuliao army doesn't have to spend any effort to build siege equipment such as shield carts, goose carts, and rushing carts, so can it be fast?

Not only is the rhythm different from the Ming army, but even the location of the siege is very different from the Ming army - the Ming army attacked the city in two places, either the city gate or the corner of the city wall, both of which were relatively weak in defense; But the Fu Liao army did not choose these two places, but casually found a relatively open rammed earth wall and began to attack!

Just when Deputy General Guanglu was worried that the attack of the Fuliao army would be flanked by the Koreans on the walls on both sides, the fire of ballistas and Franc machine artillery made him understand why Chu Fan was so casual—the wall had already been blown up untenably by a mile away. Of course, you don't have to choose a place to attack!

At the time of the "long-range fire" strike, the two outposts of the Fuliao army had already arrived under the city wall, one after the other. The Gengzi whistle in front was so close to the city wall that Shang Kexi couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for them - the Gengzi whistle didn't stop until it was sixty or seventy steps away from the city wall, and lined up in three rows!

"Bang! Bang bang bang! ”

Without "long-range firepower", there were Koreans on the city wall who were ready to move again, coming out of the wall to shoot arrows at the approaching Gengzi sentry; The Gengzi whistle was not moved at all, as long as someone showed their heads. A volley of guns fired; After the battle, this platoon retreated to the rear of the flanks to reload, and the latter platoon continued to fill up, holding the Lumi gun on guard, until the sentry commander gave the command to shoot again, and a rain of bullets was sprinkled on the city again.

After seven or eight rounds of gunfire, the 100-pace-long rammed earth city wall was completely quiet -- the Koreans who had been beaten and hurt were not to mention that they were hiding their bodies tightly. For fear of attracting a rain of bullets again.

Of course, they didn't fight back at all, but they no longer used to shoot their arrows directly, but instead tried to hit the Fuliao army by throwing them from behind the wall.

At a distance of seventy or eighty paces, and unable to shoot accurately, the effect of such an attack can be imagined - except for a few unlucky people who were shot in the legs that were not covered by armor leaves, the Fuliao army had no other casualties.

This siege method of suppressing the opponent with firearms is still gratifying, and the blood is boiling -- they Dongjiang Town has also uprooted the strongholds and walled cities of the Tartars, but when it is not a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, they will not fill in the lives of hundreds or thousands of Liaodong heroes. Don't even try to stand under the walls!

The wall has been completely suppressed, what should the Liao army do next--don't you need ants to attack the city? So how did they get to the top of the city?

The next scene made Shang Kexi's heart full of doubts: he saw a small team of about a dozen people, some carrying iron stakes. Some of them held wooden triangles of different sizes, and some even carried hammers and ran through the labyrinthine sheep and horse walls under the rammed earth walls to the base of the walls.

The distance was a little far, and the root of the wall was in the shadow of the sun, so Shang Kexi couldn't see what they were doing. Just as his palms were sweating, a simple cave house was erected almost instantly—a herringbone roof covered with a thin sheet of iron, and two simple rows of wooden stakes underneath it for support.

The improvised cave house was built so quickly that when the North Koreans found out about it on the wall, they kept throwing ash bottles of gold juice down with the blow of the fire. I can't hurt those soldiers of the Liao Army anymore!

Oh, so they're digging the foot of the wall!

Shang Kexi breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but feel a little proud: the Fuliao Army's various siege methods had dealt a serious blow to Deputy General Guanglu's self-confidence, and he was now very doubtful that he would be able to fight in the end! And finally seeing the siege method he was familiar with, he regained a little bit of self-confidence - no matter how powerful the firearms are, it is impossible to let the city wall collapse by itself after all, and in the end, he still has to rely on the stupid method of digging the foot of the wall to solve the problem.

It's just that there are only a dozen or so people, how long will it take to dig up the city wall to collapse?

Sure enough, just when Shang Kexi was worried about the Fuliao army, he saw a few more people heading towards the simple cave house.

Wait, four people on a flat pole, what are they carrying?

A jar that is smaller than the water tank used by ordinary people for fire prevention, black and swarthy seems to be made of iron; The weight seemed to be very light, and the four of them seemed to be hobbling when they carried it.

What the hell is this?

This question has not been solved, and more doubts have sprung up in the heart of Adjutant General Guanglu with the development of the situation: Why did all the soldiers at the foot of the wall retreat? Why did the Geng-shaped whistle and T-shaped whistle also follow behind and retreated? The battle isn't over yet!

What surprised Shang Kexi even more was that after the Gengzi whistle and the T-shaped whistle were withdrawn, like everyone who stayed a mile away, he put down his hand and lay on the ground, covering his ears tightly!

Shang Kexi felt like he was going crazy!

Seeing that everything is going extremely well, and the Koreans on the wall are also crushed to death, if he comes to command, as long as he sends a small team of family members, he can successfully enter the city!

But at this critical moment, the Fuliao Army actually gave up! Why is this still pretending to be dead?!

He was still in a hurry to get on fire, and a strong force suddenly came from behind him, knocking him to the ground!

It's over! Someone sneaked up on you!

This was Shang Kexi's only thought when he hit the ground with his cheeks. (To be continued.) )

PS: It's Qingming today, have all the book friends gone to sprinkle and sweep the sacrifice?
