The military advisor directly showed a slightly calm expression on his face, and comforted Wu Jingtian: "Dashuai, we really can't rebuild the wall with bricks... However, we can use sacks filled with sand to build low walls on top of the walls. ”

"The students are sure that the flowering shells fired at us by the Haw Par Army will not be able to destroy these sandbag-piled low walls, even if they can damage them..."

The military advisor said well, that is, the mortar shells produced with yellow gunpowder in later generations did not cause much damage to the positions piled up with sandbags, not to mention the black gunpowder in front of which was several times less powerful....

Therefore, in front of this kind of low wall piled up with sandbags, unless the flowering bullet directly hits the sandbag, there is no way to help these low walls, and these low walls cannot be destroyed......

Wu Jingtian, who couldn't think of any other way, had to open his mouth and agreed: "Okay, just do it....Military Division, from now on, all the remaining brothers in the city will be handed over to you... Be sure to cut off the low wall you mentioned before the Haw Par Army attacks, and all of them will be built. ”

"Otherwise, we can stand the flowering bullets that the Haw Par Army fired at us..."

Tens of thousands of traitors, one person carrying two sandbags on the city wall, is a full 20,000...

With the help of these sandbags, the unobstructed walls were immediately divided into small squares that were no more than a battle wide.

Thousands of traitor musketeers defending the walls, scattered in small squares, prepared to defend against the enemy....

As for the Haw Par Army two miles outside the city, it is not clear what has changed on the city walls.

At this moment, they were under Zhou Yuhong's orders. Preparing for the first round of the offensive ...

Ten rounds of shelling in a row. Although Zhou Yuhong was not able to witness the concrete results of these flowering bombs. But. The corpse of the traitor who was constantly thrown off the city wall by the wave of qi generated by the explosion of the flowering bomb had already told Zhou Yuhong from another aspect that the traitor on the city wall had absolutely suffered heavy losses under the attack of the flowering bomb.

Under such circumstances, Zhou Yuhong had reason to believe that under the cover of the fire of his own heavy mortar battalion, the traitors who were defending on the city walls. It will definitely be blown up and scattered. And the soldiers in charge of the attack on their own side will also easily approach the city wall under the cover of these flowering shells and blow up the city wall with explosives packs......

Therefore, as the follow-up troops continued to rush to the battlefield, Zhou Yuhong, as the direct commander of this battle, was ready to launch the first round of attacks on Baode County.

Seeing that it would be noon in half an hour, in order to give the traitors in the city a dismount, Zhou Yuhong did not let go of this time.

After taking a deep breath, he ordered his subordinates.

"Artillery battalion. Continue to fire flowering shells at the city walls....Don't stop without the order of the general... One regiment and one battalion. Be prepared to attack...... The two battalions of the first regiment and the two battalions of the personal guard, firing in three stages, provided fire cover for the attacking troops...."

"Start attacking ......"

"Boom, boom, boom..." Less than ten seconds after General Zhou Yuhong gave the order, a series of dull roars sounded in front of the artillery positions lined up with more than 20 mortars.

Twenty-seven flowering shells emitting white smoke quickly flew out of the barrel of the cannon, propelled by clusters of orange-red flames.

Then, with a whistling sound, he drew a very beautiful white arc in the air and smashed steadily towards the city wall.

Under Zhou Yuhong's gaze, clusters of orange-red fireballs quickly appeared in the field of vision. Some rise above the city walls, others inside and outside the city walls.

Of course, with the help of the monoculars, Zhou Yuhong immediately shifted his gaze to the six fireballs rising from the city wall. With the help of the telescope, although there was an obstacle from the battlements, Zhou Yuhong could still clearly see that the moment the fireball rose into the air, at least seven traitors were directly thrown high by the fireball that rose into the air......

Seeing this, Zhou Yuhong's first thought was that under the attack of six flowering shells, on the city wall without any concealment, the traitor must have suffered heavy losses.

However, on the city wall, which has been divided into blocks by sandbags, there is another scene...

Six whizzing flowering bullets smashed directly into the six squares. The thirty traitors located in the square, without exception, all fell in pools of blood, dead or wounded....

As for the fragments of the most lethal shells of the flowering shells, without exception, they all pierced into the partition formed by sandbags on the perimeter. The traitor coach Wu Jingtian was most worried about whether the sandbag partition would be blown up by the flowering bomb, and there was no more. Because, after the explosion of the flowering bomb, the sandbag partition still stood there without the slightest change.

Therefore, the first round of shells fired by the Haw Par Army only caused 30 losses to the traitors.

And just as the explosion of the flowering shells ended, dozens of traitors armed with muskets rushed up the city wall, rushing to the six spaces where the explosion had just occurred, ensuring that there would be no gaps in the defense of the wall that had lasted for more than a hundred battles.

Of course, all of this, as the direct commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army, Zhou Yuhong, is not clear.

Under the order of Zhou Yuhong, twenty-seven heavy mortars fired ten rounds of flowering shells at the city wall in a row. More than four hundred muskets that have long been ready for manual ....

More than 400 musketeers, in addition to one musket and three grenades, there were almost 100 musketeers on their backs, carrying a bag of explosives weighing 10 pounds...

More than 400 musketeers lined up in a straggler line and slowly drove out of the military formation, like a fiery red wave, quickly heading towards the city wall of Baode County, which had been completely enveloped in gunsmoke.

Not only that, but the more than 1,000 musketeers who had already finished lining up quickly raised their muskets. Immediately behind the attacking troops, step by step towards the city walls. After preparing to a position of one hundred and fifty paces outside the city walls, provide fire cover for the attacking troops.

Time passed little by little, and the distance between the attacking troops and the city wall of Baode County was also rapidly shortened from two miles to two hundred steps.

At this time, under the attack of one flowering bomb after another, the traitors who kept suffering losses also began to move.

Within the squares that had not been attacked by the flowering shells, a dense crowd of traitors quickly rushed to the edge of the city wall. Pick up the musket with lead bullet and gunpowder, light the arquebus, and get ready to shoot.

The artilleryman, who has the same action as the musketeer, has tightly connected the sub-cannon filled with lead bullet to the Franc machine. Then, aim at the Haw Par Army, which is getting closer and closer to the city wall, and get ready to shoot...

"Artillery, open fire..."After a loud roar sounded on the city wall, more than a dozen Franc planes with the longest range quickly sprayed out clusters of orange-red flames outside the city.

Wrapped in these flames, lead bullets erupted from the muzzle of the gun, quickly forming a fan-shaped attack surface at the muzzle. Then, with a whistling sound, he covered the oncoming tiger and leopard army.

A Franc machine shoots more than 100 buckshots forward, and more than 10 Franc machines are more than 1,000 lead bullets...

In the blink of an eye when the cannon sounded, a dense lead bullet formed an impenetrable bullet net in front of the attacking troops of the Tiger and Par Army.

The bullet net roared, and the dozens of soldiers of the Tiger and Par Army who rushed to the front seemed to crash into an unstoppable copper wall, and fell directly to the ground, being beaten into a hornet's nest by lead bullets.......

The sudden blow and the death of dozens of soldiers directly frightened the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army behind them.

However, after a long period of training, they did not collapse because of this.

Amid the roar of the officers accompanying the team, the already dense formation continued to disperse. Not only that, but their charging speed is getting faster and faster...

However, no matter how fast they are, they can't fly faster than the speed of buckshot...

Hundreds of soldiers had just rushed forward less than twenty paces, and a new round of artillery fire had already reached their ears.

Then, the dense lead bullets that roared into their bodies had already been fired head-on.

In the blink of an eye, another fifty or sixty officers and soldiers of the Haw Par Army fell heavily on the way to the charge with unwilling faces.

There are still one hundred and eighty steps away from the city wall to support, and the more than 400 soldiers who directly attacked the city wall have lost a quarter of their troops.

However, the idea of luck also surfaced in the minds of Zhou Yuhong and all the soldiers who participated in the war.

"As long as the more than 1,000 musketeers, who were responsible for providing fire cover, rushed to a hundred and fifty paces and began to attack the traitors on the walls with lead bullets, their losses would be greatly reduced. When the time comes, the victory will still be theirs. ”

Therefore, in the face of the soldiers who kept falling on the battlefield, Zhou Yuhong, who had a trace of luck, did not give the order to retreat. And this led the first defeat of the Haw Par Army to attack Baode County, and it was a fiasco...

After another loss of a hundred men, more than a thousand musketeers finally rushed to the position of one hundred and fifty paces.

Then, a burst of gunfire began to sound outside the city....

More than 400 buckshots, with a whistling sound, flew towards the city walls.

Under this round of lead bullet attack, dozens of traitor gunners, who were caught off guard, fell on the city wall with screams before they had time to make any preparations.

Of course, the remaining gunners also discovered that the biggest threat to them outside the city had become the Haw Par Musketeers a hundred and fifty paces away.

As a result, the traitor gunners who had just been added quickly turned their guns and aimed at the Tiger and Par Army one hundred and fifty paces away.

The cannon sounded, and the dense lead bullets quickly flew towards the musketeers one hundred and fifty paces away.

Because these musketeers were all standing in a dense three-stage musket formation, the whistling lead bullets brought them hundreds of losses at one time.

However, the attacking force, which already had less than 300 men left, was not so lucky...

As soon as he dodged the artillery attack, he was greeted by a dense burst of lead bullets fired by the rebels of the city wall.

Although the power of the old musket is not great, it has a great lethality at a distance of 80 paces. (To be continued......)
