Chapter 625: Head Breaks and Blood

As far as these Mongol troops were concerned, they were not willing to expose the cavalry to the firepower of the defenders, after all, the ferocity of the firearms of the Jingbian army was well known, and some of them had seen it firsthand. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that you don't need to ride a bow to cover the suppression, how can those wooden shields be carried out smoothly?

At this time, most of them gathered outside the "Yuanyang Village" to cut off the grain and pull out the village, but the time was very urgent, and they had to be pulled out before the arrival of the reinforcements of the Jingbian Army, and the ability of the Saiwaihu people to build equipment was very poor, and the time was in a hurry, so they didn't have to think about what the shield car was, not to mention other attacking equipment, they could only cut some wood and tie it into a rough wooden shield to resist the fire.

Facts have proved that it is difficult for the leather shield and iron shield in the army to resist the bombardment of the Jingbian armament, and although a shield wrapped in extremely thick iron can be used, who in the army can move to lift such a heavy shield?

Of course, if the gun hits the weak point of the wooden shield, and between the two wooden gaps, it can still shoot at the people in the rear, but this has greatly reduced the casualties of the soldiers.

The east of the stockade, the northeast is not far away, and it is all mountainous, although the wood is cut down a lot by the defenders, there are still large areas of dense forests, and there are many raw materials, so the attack on the village is ridden, and after urgently making some wooden shields, some of them dismount and push.

There were still many people in the rear, so they hurried to build more wooden shields, cut rough wood, and bundle them together.

The main part of their attack on the village is the east fence of the military village, which is the same as the idea of the Han Dynasty when they set up the village, after all, the objective conditions are here, if you don't attack here, where will you attack?

The shouts shook the sky. Thousands of cavalry on this side turned into infantry, pushing heavy wooden shields desperately forward, row by row, about 300 planes, each one zhang long, behind the wooden shields, a large number of archers and armor.

In addition, there were clouds of cavalry in front of them, and they flexibly circled around the stockade, suppressing and luring arrows at hundreds or dozens of paces.

Regardless of accuracy and power. Just overlay the words of the diffuser. With horsepower, a riding bow can still shoot very far.

The defenders largely ignored the Mongol cavalry's assault, as their cavalry could not break through the fence. I can't cross the trench. They rode and shot arrows. However, it is shallowly inserted into the fence, and when it falls down to the head, it is also blocked by a wooden shed above.

From the beginning of August to the present. "Yuanyangzhai" has become more and more perfect, some new wooden sheds behind the fence are one of them, the roof of the shed is paved with heavy wooden boards, some are tilted, extending to the outside of the fence, which can effectively protect against arrows.

They hid behind the fence and were silent, only when the Tartars came closer, and under the command of the officer, suddenly a neat volley of guns knocked them to the ground.

Some of the Mongolian horses were whimsical and shot rockets, but the logs were very wet, and the little sparks in the arrows were burned at all, and the defenders didn't bother to pay attention to them.

At this time, the guard of the village was Huang Wei, who fought the Battle of Shiqiao with Tian Qiming, and was still a general under Tian Qiming's camp at this time.

He stood on the second floor of the hilly wooden house, holding a clairvoyant mirror, just looking at the enemy troops outside the village.

The sound of killing, the sound of cannons, Teng Teng came into his ears, and there was even the smell of gunsmoke, beside him, the officers of the thousand headquarters looked out of the window, but the pacification officer went to encourage the sergeants, and the pacification officer went to supervise the inspection.

"It seems that the main forces of the Naturalized City Tartars are concentrated here, they have endured it for so long, and finally they can't help it, a small village, at least 20,000 soldiers and horses gathered outside, it seems that the determination to pull out the village is very great."

Behind him, a zanhua looked at the black and oppressive enemy troops outside the wall, and muttered to himself.

"In the past battles outside the Saiwai, what the Tartars are best at is cutting off grain and cutting off the road, but the stockade of my Jingbian Army is not so easy to attack? These Tartar soldiers under Yuanyang Village will definitely meet and break the bloodstream. It's best for them to delay outside the wall, and when our army arrives, we can wipe them out! ”

Another praise said, full of confidence in his tone, after the establishment of the village in early August, to now, not only the village is firmly operated, but the grain and grass in the village are piled up, providing a good guarantee for the army ahead.

This is the first military village erected by the Western Expeditionary Army, whether it is symbolic or real, no wonder the main force of the Tartar cavalry is in danger, and the first to attack is this village.

It's just that they are going to miscalculate, although they have 20,000 people, and there is only one defender of this village, and they have to let them meet and break the blood.

This is also Huang Wei's calculation in his heart, he is not afraid of the Tartars attacking the village, if he can drag the Tartars, it is the best, but the Tartars are cunning, I am afraid that they will also notice this, presumably they will not stay for a long time, at most one or two days, they will leave the village.

However, after enduring so many days, he suddenly went out to seize the grain and pull out the village, and today's battle is afraid to be fierce.

While observing this side, he also walked around the windows of the wooden house, looking at the enemy situation around the military village.

Near the stockade, the shrubs and weeds have long been cut down and burned, densely packed, and only enemy troops are gathered.

At present, the most Tartars attacking the fence in the east of the military village, the wooden shield erected is also the most, the number of people in the north and south of the two gates is small, about 1,000 people attack each, because the west of the village is not far from the river, and there are only a few rangers running.

Therefore, when defending, the number of troops deployed in the east of the village is also the largest.

In the wooden house of this building, there are also more than a dozen soldiers raising their guns and aiming at the enemy from the window.

The headquarters had eight hundred soldiers and four hundred soldiers, two hundred of whom were arranged to defend the east side of the stockade, and their hundred men were lined up behind the fence, and the rest were gathered in several wooden houses, distributed on the upper and lower floors of the wooden houses.

They were about ten paces away from the fence, and they had not fired their guns, preparing to give them a volley of up and down three fires like a long ridge when the Tartars got closer.

In addition, the pikemen in the department, this kind of battle of defending the village, is useless for a while, so it is used as a bombardier.

In the battle of Jinzhou, the 10,000 enemies of the Jingbian Army achieved great success, so the army of the Western Expedition also carried a large number of 10,000 enemies, and there were many of them in the "Yuanyang Village", which were carried out one by one, ready to be thrown violently when the enemy approached.

There are also some non-combatants, such as the baggage guards and firefighters in the department, who also carry bird guns. Always ready to go into battle.

Huang Wei observed that at the same time, the ocean-like Mongolian army was besieging the military village, and the Mongolian cavalry in front of it continued to cover the diffuse fire with a riding bow.

It's just that they sent a flurry of arrows, not to mention that they couldn't shoot through the fence, or they landed on the wooden shed behind them, and they were also noisy, but they did not pose any threat to the defenders, on the contrary, they were knocked down by many men and horses by the firecrackers.

Note this. In order not to lose the precious cavalry strength in vain. Finally, the sound of a conch came from the rear, and the horses retreated, leaving only the wooden shield in front of them, and the black pressure pressed layer by layer desperately to force it away.

The five Hongyi cannons on the hill of the military village continued to bombard. Caused billowing smoke. Then it was blown southeast by the autumn wind. They destroyed several wooden shields in succession, shattered the bundles of wood, and threw many stumps and severed arms into the air.

At present, the artillery battalion of the Jingbian Army uses silk medicine bags. The fight was fast, and it was still a long time before it needed to dissipate heat, and the power was not only calculated in multiples, but the roaring cannonballs stirred up patches of bloody rain, and along the way, the Tartars who pushed the wooden shield forward screamed endlessly.

However, they still withstood the casualties, and one by one wooden shields entered the dead end of the firing circle of the Hongyi cannon.

"The Tartars have made money."

The artillery battalion officer behind the artillery frowned and muttered.

His face had been blackened and whitened by gunsmoke, and on the dirt in front of him, arrows were stuck like weeds, and on his left arm, there was a stick hanging diagonally, but he still didn't know, but he touched his beard thoughtfully.

"It's a bit that there are too many people."

The captain of the guard beside him agreed.

Now the Zhao Xuan artillery battalion has a special guard soldiers, and the "Yuanyang Village" has left five Hongyi cannons, with 50 people such as gunners, loaders, and ammunition men, and a guard at the same time.

The guard was long, and there were a few arrows hanging on his body, but he didn't care, and he didn't even bother to take them off.

The artillery battalion officer snorted, suddenly lowered his hand, and his eyes widened: "Push the artillery to the gun hole by the fence and shoot shotguns!" ”

At this moment, the herald of the thousand headquarters came and passed Huang Wei's order, asking the brothers of the artillery battalion to push the artillery to the fence and bombard the wooden shield of the captives with shotguns.

The artillery battalion officer laughed and said, "It's really the same thing that heroes see." ”

He waved his hand majestically: "Clear the chamber, add medicine, load shotguns!" ”

The infantry Mongolian army pushed the wooden shield layer by layer, and finally advanced to a hundred steps in front of the fence, this side has already left some corpses of the previous horsemen, some of the flesh and blood are sticky like pulp, the disgusting smell of blood enters the nose, and there are some very strange smell of gunsmoke spreading.

The defenders in front did not have the slightest movement, and the Mongolian army behind the shield could not see the situation in the village, only felt that between the wooden fences that were more than one person high, some black and heavy bird guns poked out of the perforations, which made people feel chilled to see, and then looked up, in the wooden houses on the hills behind the fence, there were also some birds aiming at them.

Many people were playing drums in their hearts, but this was not the time to hesitate, the big drum in the rear had already sounded, and the Mongolian soldiers pushing the shield shouted in unison, desperately pushing the wooden shield, and rushed forward.

Fifty steps in, the Ming army still did not move, at this time has been an order, listen to the sound of the bowstring endlessly, the Mongolian army archers behind the shield, towards the direction of the wooden fence, shoot their arrows hard, as the distance gets closer, shoot more arrows, really like pouring rain.

The sound of flowers was like hail raindrops, and in an instant, the fence and wooden shed on this side were full of arrows like hedgehogs.

The defenders still did not move, and the Mongol troops behind the shield did not see the results of the arrows, but everyone only shot the arrows with great force to hide the fear in their hearts.

Closer, thirty paces, there was a sharp swan sound, the sound of a volley of firearms sounded, and it was obvious that three white smoke rose into the air before and after, and I saw the blood mist of the wooden shield in front of me floating, and the endless screams and screams came out, the sound of falling to the ground with the flesh, and even some wooden shields toppling.

The ferocious bullet pierced the weak point of the wooden shield, causing a heavy blow to the people behind the shield, especially the soldiers in the wooden house, they were condescending, and the people hiding behind the shield could also hit, and there was chaos between several rows of wooden shields.

The sudden blow knocked out many Mongols, who had never experienced the battle of Changling Mountain, and were extremely unaccustomed to this kind of head-to-head battle, although the salvo firearms were only 200 shots, but they were greatly frightened, and they were also hit in the back rows, what kind of stockade is this?

Before they could wake up, some parts of the fence were open like windows, and the muzzles of several black holes peeked out, and then they exploded, like thunder, with a large puff of white smoke, and finally countless shotguns roared.

The sound of the wooden shield falling and shattering continued, interspersed with the continuous sound of fractures and broken flesh, and countless blood mist exploded in all directions, one Hongyi cannon could be loaded with at least 100 lead bullets, and five Hongyi cannons were fired, that is, hundreds of lead bullets were fired.

They roared, and for a while, the Mongol troops behind the wooden shields were beaten to pieces......

The Mongolian army, which was lucky enough to survive, didn't know what it was like, and they went ahead in a daze, but they heard a Chinese voice behind the fence shouting: "Ten thousand enemies." ”

Then they saw to their horror that their heads were black, and round things were falling on their heads...... (To be continued.) )
