Chapter 393: Filling the River

The sound of artillery rumbled and shook the earth. Blazing shells pierced the sky, but the direction was Quang Ninh. There was a loud bang, and the stones at the head of the city flew wildly, and the dust rose loudly.

"Phew!"

Zhang Ke took two bites hard, and just now a cannonball smashed on a wall less than ten meters away from him, but fortunately only dust splashed into his mouth and did not hurt a bit. But this also frightened the people around him, if Hou Ye had a little mistake, they would not be able to redeem themselves.

"Master Hou, the Tartar cannon is powerful, you better avoid it!"

"Awesome big-headed ghost!" When Zhang Ke heard the sound of the cannon, he was so angry that his lungs exploded.

He knows exactly how much ability Tartar has, Huang Taiji has no ability to build artillery at all, and as for the cannons captured from Shenyang and Liaoyang, he lost a lot in the battle of Changsheng Island.

At present, Jiannu has cannons to participate in the war, most of them were left to them by the Ming army, and the initiator is the famous Master Sun!

He proposed to build a city against the enemy, naturally red-clothed cannons are indispensable, and I heard that Mr. Sun bought dozens of cannons from Westerners, and the freight alone turned into tens of thousands of taels of silver.

After wasting so much effort, as a result, these cannons became sharp weapons in the hands of Jiannu, how could Zhang Ke not be angry!

"Wait for me, after the battle, let's settle the account slowlyโˆ‘โŠ™ Zhang Ke gritted his teeth and made a vow.

"Master Hou, step back first."

"What to retreat, the redcoat cannon is already slow to reload, and there are not many shells in total. Ben Jue is not going anywhere, I don't believe in such a coincidence! โ€

The strength of the twisting came up, and no one persuaded Zhang Ke to listen.

I could only hear the rumbling of cannons, and from time to time bricks splashed on the city wall, and even injured and killed many soldiers, but Zhang Ke was very safe around him and was not affected.

About half an hour passed, and the sound of the cannon gradually subsided. From the smoke of gunpowder, there were countless shouts of killing. Jiannu pushed the shield cart and swarmed towards the city.

"So many years. It's still the same old tricks, tell the brothers sรน, give me a hard beating! โ€

Without Zhang Ke's order, the gunshots at the head of the city would have already sounded.

For the recruits in Quang Ninh, just a cannon shot was a nightmare, they were all trembling, their legs were shaking, and some even had the urge to pee their pants without stopping, and the soldiers also knew that their appearance was too embarrassing. Even his face turned red with shame, but he couldn't restrain the fear in his heart.

A rumbling cannon, shaking the sky and the earth, can produce a powerful deterrent without hitting.

This is also something that there is no way to do, instinctively so, there is no other way but to go to the battlefield more. Fortunately, Zhang Ke, Qiao Gui, and even Wang Huazhen and Cui Chengxiu. They all supervised the battle at their posts, and no one retreated.

Adults don't spare their lives, what are they afraid of!

Gradually, they adapted to the suffocating battlefield environment, and the soldiers bravely raised their firearms.

"Aim!"

Wow. The soldiers raised their guns together, and there was no light from the muzzle of the black hole.

"Shoot!"

The soldiers subconsciously knocked on the trigger, and gunpowder smoke erupted, and several soldiers even stretched their necks. Looking down, I want to know the results of the battle.

The officer in charge of supervising the battle did not hesitate to wave the waist knife in his hand and slammed the back of the knife into the hands of several people.

"Look at what. When you die, you have time to watch! โ€

The soldiers woke up suddenly, hurriedly retreated, endured severe pain, and immediately reloaded. The soldiers in the back hurriedly rushed up, repeating the previous movements, firing deadly bullets at the Tartars.

According to calculations, the Ming army's firearms could hit an average of 70 paces away, while Jiannu's bows and arrows were about 50 paces. Due to the condescending position of the Ming army, it can still be a little cheaper, but it is also necessary to take advantage of the distance that the Tartars cannot return fire and kill the enemy fiercely.

The gunshots rang out in a ball, crackling and crispier than popping beans.

Stormy bullets fell on the Tartars' ranks, and although they were blocked by a huge shield cart, the bullets could hit them just as well. As long as they are hit by bullets, the light ones will be shattered, and the heavy ones will die directly, even if they don't die, with the level of Jiannu's medical skills, there will be no treatment, and they will only become a bunch of wasters.

The guns of the Ming army continued, and the Jiannu were killed and wounded, and they could only see people falling down from afar, and the twisted corpses outlined one attack line after another. This is the real fight with life, and the pit is filled with flesh and blood.

The Ming army at the head of the city even gradually rose a sense of admiration, no wonder Jiannu was able to beat the other Ming troops to the point of urine, just this patience and courage should not be underestimated.

In fact, they don't know that Jiannu has not always been so brave.

Since he regarded the Yiju soldiers as the biggest enemy, Jiannu kept firing guns and cannons during training to make the soldiers adapt to the battlefield. But no matter how they trained, they still couldn't turn people into copper-headed iron arms, and they wanted to die, and every time they died, Dai Shan was distressed and bleeding.

But he also knows that if he doesn't fight for his life now, let the Yizhou soldiers and Zhang Ke continue to grow bigger, they will be dead ends sooner or later. Huang Taiji has repeatedly said this truth to Dai Shan. This old slippery head also had to fight desperately to the death.

"Kill! Rush up, everyone is dead, Benbel goes up! โ€

Da Baylor was ruthless, how dare the others hesitate, the general of the two red flags personally led the team in front, and the clumsy shield car was getting closer and closer to the city.

"Ready, open!"

Someone shouted at the top of his voice, and the first rain of arrows struck the city.

In an instant, many Tartars almost wept, and they finally did not have to be beaten passively. From time to time, people were hit by arrows or bullets, and the number of dead and wounded rose rapidly.

Both sides gritted their teeth to support them, especially those recruits, their faces were green, and their fingers couldn't stop trembling, but they still stubbornly followed the order and kept shooting.

For these soldiers, there is no way to retreat, and behind them are their families, relatives and friends. If you don't want them to die, you have to fight with your own life!

Whoosh, an arrow mercilessly struck the soldier in the eye, and he fell down screaming in pain. The medics hurriedly carried him down the city, but before he could reach the bottom of the city, half of his body was already wet with blood, and the soldiers didn't even have the strength to struggle and scream. He gritted his teeth and silently endured the pain, holding on to his last breath.

When the younger person appeared in front of him, a relieved smile finally appeared on his face.

"Revenge!"

Two words were shouted, and the soldier stopped breathing.

The younger brother took over the elder brother's firearm and rushed to the city wall without hesitation, the battle had just begun, and life and death tested the strong Quang Ninh!

Jiannu's bow and arrows are getting sharper and sharper, Qiao Fu can't bear to be killed and injured in a large number of firecrackers, the training of firecrackers is much more difficult than ordinary soldiers, and they will be consumed as soon as the war starts, what can I do next!

"Stand back, go to the hanger!"

"Hang the household!"

The thick leather and quilt were drenched with water and became extremely tough, blocking the battlements with ease, easily blocking the heavy bows and arrows, and although they could occasionally shoot up from the gaps, the damage was greatly reduced, and gradually the recruits calmed down.

But Qiao Gui looked down through the lookout hole at this time, and the test had just begun!

Countless Jiannu auxiliaries, as well as Han army flags, rushed out, they pushed carts and wheelbarrows, carried bags of sand, rushed to the city wall, frantically dumped sand and soil into the moat, and in a blink of an eye, a passage was about to take shape.

"Brethren, grenade ready!"

The grenade is not a new thing, and it has a name, called Ten Thousand Enemies. However, after several actual battles, the grenades of the Yizhou soldiers were more lethal.

Light the fuse, pause slightly, and throw it down the battlement.

Some grenades exploded in the air, shrapnel flew and iron nails and iron filings flew indiscriminately, the Tartar auxiliaries had no armor, and in an instant they became a hornet's nest, the moat was full of corpses, and the river turned a terrifying red. (To be continued......)
