Buddha Chapter 165 Bombarded into slag
Wushan County is connected to Hubei in the south and Fengjie in the west, which is the gateway to the east of Sichuan. The county borders across both sides of the Yangtze River, while the county seat is built on the triangular point where the Yangtze River meets the Daning River.
The county seat is built on the riverside mountain, and the riverside wharf has a long staircase until the south gate of the county seat, and the whole 720 steps are like a ladder.
At this time, the sweeping king and the ten anti-kings were walking up the stairs with the bandits.
"The thieves are coming!"
The guards on the south gate of Wushan made a frightened report, and Wang Qiren, the magistrate of the county, stroked the battlements, looking at the firelight, his legs and feet were weak, and he finally believed that those Hubei soldiers and horses came to suppress the bandits.
On the side, compared to the panic and fear of Wang Qiren and other Wushan officials and people, Cao Duan, the head of the left section of the nine-headed bird war camp who was in charge of sitting in the city, looked calm, not only did not panic and be nervous, but even a little excited and happy.
"It's finally here, let Lao Tzu wait for a while, and everyone will doze off."
Thousands of bandits were walking up the very steep steps, and they were full of torches.
"Are the bandits a sneak attack or a strong attack?" Cao Duan said to the officers around him with disdain, in his opinion, if the bandits want to sneak attack, then try to be careful, don't make such a big move, it is best to sneak up with a black light, so that it will be more successful to sneak attack.
"A thief is a bandit, and he just relies on it to avoid the real and attack the false." A nine-headed bird officer replied that if they hadn't suddenly appeared here, maybe with the number of five thousand, there was really no need for these thieves to be sneaky against a small county town with no soldiers stationed.
"This is not how the battle is fought, even if the lion and the rabbit are still using all their strength, even if the thieves are powerful, but such a swarm of swarms of attacks will only increase unnecessary losses." Cao Duan retorted that he really despised this tactic of thieves. In the Army of Hydra. The officers have become accustomed to Liu Jun's method of leading troops, that is, soldiers are precious, and any battle must have precise deployment and detailed calculation, in short, casualties must be minimized.
"Thieves, there are a few soldiers who value it seriously, anyway, as long as the old thieves under him are not killed, they will be able to gather again. As long as they find a gap to grab one or two cities, they can gather another army at any time. How much to die. None of them will feel distressed. ”
Cao Duan also had to admit that what his subordinates said was very reasonable, "These damn bandits! ”
They chatted calmly there, but Wang Qiren was very calm, he brought his officials and the big families in the city to come, but Cao Duan's soldiers did not stop him.
"Don't pay attention to these idiots, they dared to be unreasonable to our generals before, if the general hadn't let me, I would have killed them a long time ago, little magistrate. How dare you be so arrogant. Cao Duan glanced over there and ignored it at all.
All the nine-headed bird officers didn't have a good impression of Wang Qiren, but when they were in Macheng before, Lu Jinxi, the magistrate of the county, was also a two-rank jinshi. But he has never been so rude to them.
"These dogs, we rushed to save their lives, and they still have to put up a valuable shelf with us. If we hadn't been here, these thieves would have been able to slaughter Wushan City tonight. ”
The bandits approached quickly. They carried a lot of bamboo ladders over, intending to grab the city directly.
"The bandits are still in such a hurry to send them to death."
The bandits were indeed out of order, and the people in front rushed to the city. didn't wait for the people behind to arrive, and didn't form a team, and directly began to build a ladder to the city. The city wall of Wushan City is less than three zhang high, and there are no moats, urn cities, sheep and horse walls, and there are no enemy towers on the city, and even the original soldiers in the city do not have.
"Open the cannon, why don't you fire the cannon, fire the cannon quickly." Wang Qiren and the others were stopped on the side of the city, unable to get close to Wang Qian and other officers, but they had already seen that these Hubei soldiers had many guns and artillery in their hands. But until the thieves calmly approached the city and began to set up ladders, the defenders at the head of the city did not fire a single shot.
He was in a hurry, jumping to his feet and shouting.
It's a pity that none of the Hydra warriors paid any attention to him.
Although the thieves are already under the city, since there is no attack order from above, even if the thieves come, they will not fire a single shot, this is the concept that all the soldiers of the nine-headed bird have been constantly instilled since they entered the camp.
The drums are endless, and even the sword mountain and the sea of fire in front of you have to rush up. The sound of gold sounds, even if there is a mountain of gold and silver in front of you, you must immediately withdraw your troops and never look back.
The soldiers who patrolled back and forth on the city were not ordinary soldiers, but military prisons directly under the command of General Qian, who were responsible for checking military discipline and supervising operations. If they dare to disobey orders on the battlefield, such as abandoning the battle and running away, they will be punished on the spot.
If anyone dares to attack without an order, their names will also be recorded. Originally, in the Qi family's army, for deserters or cowards, one ear had to be cut off directly, and those who had their ears cut off were declared to be executed after the war. Their only way to survive is to be able to kill the enemy's head on the battlefield and atone for their sins after the battle.
Ye Tianlong clenched the flying dragon gun in his hand, his nervous heart was beating violently, seeing that the bandits had gathered more and more under the city, but there was no movement above.
"Team leader, why don't you start fighting?"
Team leader Yu Jiahe was also extremely nervous in his heart, he was one of the hundreds of veteran players who participated in the Battle of Tiger Head Fort, he was originally just an ordinary private, and he had only joined the Battle of Tiger Head Fort for less than a month. In the first battle of Tiger Head Fort, the performance can only be said to be ordinary, but after the war, the Nine-Headed Bird Tiger Head Fort was greatly expanded, and the team expanded more than ten times, and he was also promoted to the team president by virtue of his qualifications.
"Don't talk nonsense, just wait for orders." Yu Jiahe glared at Ye Tianlong.
Ye Tianlong was a master who refused to be honest, and after a while, he opened his mouth and said, "I estimate that Qian is always ready to wait for these thieves to stand a little more dense." ”
"You're fucking smart."
At this time, an order was finally handed down from above, and the soldiers were asked to light the arquebuses. Yu Jiahe hurriedly squatted down with his back against the female wall, began to take out the fire fold and blow it up, and then lit the fire rope wrapped around the wrists of his team of gunners. Yu Jiahe's team is a firecracker team, a team of twelve people, even he has eleven equipped with the Flying Dragon Gun, and only one firefighter is not equipped with a firearm.
According to the usual training, lighting the arquebus on the battlefield is ready for battle.
Ye Tianlong clamped the ignited and blown fire rope into the faucet clamp, the fire gun had already been loaded with bullets, and the powder pool had already been loaded with ignition powder, everything was ready.
After Yu Jiahe lit the arquebus for all the gunners, he looked at the city, then retracted and said to his subordinates, "Okay, now I'll repeat the way of playing this time, our team is divided into three squads, four people in each squad, I and the two captains on the left and right are the team leaders, and we will be responsible for shooting guns for a while, and the other three people left in each team, one is responsible for cleaning the chamber, one is responsible for loading ammunition, and one is responsible for clamping the arquebus, let's work in a group of four, fuck it, understand?" ”
Due to the expansion of the nine-headed bird, there are a large number of recruits in the battalion, and they have not undergone much time training. Therefore, although each gunner is equipped with a new type of dragon gun, and basically has fired hundreds of rounds of live ammunition, this kind of training still can't train many excellent gunners at once.
Therefore, before this battle, Liu Jun discussed with the officers and decided to temporarily adopt a new tactic, that is, the four gunners formed a combat group, and selected one of the best archers to act as the shooter, and the other three as loaders, which could not only ensure the shooting speed, but also improve the shooting accuracy.
At night, Yu Jiahe held a gun and began to stare at the city tower, where was the wartime headquarters of General Zuo Qian, and it was also where the flag of the left department was located. To fight at night, according to the training of the nine-headed bird, it is necessary to pass on orders through lights and drums.
Suddenly, three red lanterns rose from the tower, followed by the sound of a trumpet representing an attack.
Yu Jiahe, who was a little annoyed waiting for a while, suddenly felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, and he held the flying dragon gun against his cheek, facing the dense thieves under the city, locking on the target and deducting the board machine.
The sound of thumping firebolts came and went, and the guns on the left fired together, and the sound of fried beans sounded on the top of the city, and then countless white smoke filled the air.
After shooting a shot, Yu Jiahe didn't even have time to inspect the results of his gun, the smoke in front of him was too thick, and he couldn't wait. He put away the missing firebolt and handed it to the first person beside him, and he picked up the loaded firearm from the side. By this time, the smoke of the first shot had cleared, and he once again aimed at the one under the city that was like a guy in the daylight.
Pull the trigger, shoot the lead bullet, and then quickly hand the empty gun to the team member next to him, and then pick up the loaded gun from the side.
After the continuous sound of gunfire, the artillery of all levels deployed by themselves at all levels on the left side of the city, as well as the guns of half of the artillery division, also opened fire almost simultaneously.
Although the nine-headed bird in the city does not have the powerful thousand-pound Hongyi cannon, the nine-headed bird's cannon is still very sufficient. Even if the left part is an infantry department, each flag is equipped with a tiger squat cannon, a bureau has three tiger squats, and another is equipped with a captive cannon.
There are 27 flags of three divisions, nine bureaus and 27 flags on the left side, a total of 27 tiger squats, nine exterminations, and three more than 100 catties of Franc machines, and a medium Franc machine of more than 300 pounds.
Not to mention, the artillery division still has half of its firearms in the city, equipped with five large 1,000-pound franc machines, 10 medium-sized 300-pound franc machines, and 20 small 150-pound francs, as well as 30 exterminators.
At this time, there were more than 100 artillery pieces of all kinds of large and small guns on the head of Wushan City, and they fired together, and suddenly it was like a landslide and tsunami, and the earth shook the sky.
At this time, the more than 5,000 bandits who had basically gathered under the city were immediately attacked by artillery saturation, and the dense bandits did not expect at all why the small Wushan City, which should have no power to resist, actually had so many artillery.
Before the Ten Anti-Kings were bombarded into slag by the dense shotguns, they only had time to leave one last sentence.
"I Grass" (To be continued......)
