Chapter 1334: Only by Fighting Can You Hold On

The soldiers of the Zhao family army had been standing behind the three two-wheeled carts and shooting, and the three firearms that looked like a swarm of bees had not been fired, but at this distance of forty paces, when the firearms had stopped, the three swarms spat out flames.

At this moment, it seems that the firecrackers of the Spring Festival are the loudest, and they burst intensively, only to see that the boxes on the three two-wheeled carts are constantly bursting with firelight, and the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers who rushed to the front subconsciously reacted, this is the fire gun and then fire, but dozens of fire guns are fired at a very fast speed!

The sound of the dense explosion made everyone's movements stop, and even the terrible screams of the bullets were muffled, and the three boxes were quickly shot, and within more than seventy steps from the front of the fire array, there were no more people standing, and the ground was full of corpses and wounded.

What kind of firearm is this? It was so powerful that it was nothing to endure casualties and rush forward, but in an instant, the casualties had exceeded one hundred and fifty, and one-tenth of the remaining troops were filled in.

After the shooting of a nest of fire, some people began to come forward to be busy, some people removed the back cover, took a wooden board full of brushes and inserted it into each iron pipe of a nest of fire, and soon the gunpowder residue was disposed of, wet brushed, dry brushed, and then began to load ammunition one by one, after the loading, the ammunition in all the tubes was directly tamped with the same wooden board full of strips, and then the back cover with a lead was fastened.

Each nest of fire has three back covers with leads, when shooting, use one piece to load one piece, ensure the frequency of shooting, clean the guns, tamp the ammunition, and even load the ammunition, there are special tools, otherwise this nest of fires stacked with more than a dozen or twenty guns is disposed of according to the procedures of the guns, and the time spent on the battlefield is too much.

Even if there are special tools, it will take time for a nest of fires to start again, but the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers on the opposite side didn't know how to react for a while, and rushed over hard just now, but they didn't expect that there would be such a strong firepower****, but seeing the tense and busy loading here, they regained their courage, and they could hear the angry scolding and urging of the generals, but the steps of the soldiers below couldn't get up quickly.

They couldn't get up quickly, but the soldiers of the Zhao family army were not waiting there, and they didn't have to set up the standard shooting of wooden forks and wooden frames, the soldiers carried the loaded firearms, rushed out quickly, and the enemy was closer to the firing range and then fired, and more than 100 firearms continued to fire forward.

The left-behind Jurchen soldiers who were stunned were already a little panicked, and suddenly they were killed and wounded, and their companions who were constantly falling in front at this time, this group of Xuzhou people had such powerful firearms, what other means did they not know, this Jurchen soldiers and horses no longer had the courage to persevere, turned their heads and retreated, and kept running towards the shore.

And the partial divisions sent out to attack the flanks stopped after a nest of fire, and if there was no containment and damage in the front, the small units on the flanks used to deliver food, and when they saw the retreat of the brigade, they also left in a hurry.

As long as they come to such a cramped terrain as landing, the other party will not have the upper hand, and they can't even expand the formation, because of the wrong estimation of the power of the firearms in Xuzhou, the casualties have been nearly three hundred.

It is better to stick to the ships and landing places, and wait until the main force in the north wins, and then join forces to completely sweep this damn Xuzhou fortress, listening to the tsunami from the north, and estimating that the army is about to kill back.

The team led by Zhao Song did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but also did not retreat the fortress, and after controlling the port area, people from each company were drawn out and walked around the warehouses and freight yards to count.

"Someone's coming from the north!" "Our ship is back!"

The two voices sounded almost at the same time, and Zhao Songxin, who led the team outside, jumped down, the north is likely to be the Jianzhou Jurchen army, does our ship mean that the support in the customs has arrived, but it quickly calmed down, and the north can see thousands of people running towards the fortress in a noisy manner, this looks like the people of Phi Island, and the ships on the sea are the two sea ships that left the port, they are all observing around Phi Island from a distance.

"Prepare the cannon and shoot if you make the slightest mistake!" Zhao Song arranged for a company of people to go over, and also brought over a nest of fires, and the two light guns at the head of the fortress wall were also adjusting their angles.

However, the two sea ships on the sea don't have to worry too much, this can only be Zhao Jiajun's own ship, it is nothing more than what news they brought.

Zheng Xiaoer brought a thousand people from Phi Dao, including more than 300 women, children, old and weak, the rest were young and strong, and less than 30 people from the third company came back, and the rest were nowhere to be seen.

"Those military masters said that they were going to recruit more people, and some villagers on Phi Island showed them the way!" Zheng Xiaoer's answer was very brief.

Zhao Song immediately understood why, those people in the third company regarded the hesitation and timidity when they received the order as a great shame, and now they had to do this errand well, wash themselves, and prove themselves.

Yun Shanxing's men and Zhao Jiajun's men had already prepared cakes, and it was impossible for everyone to be full, but everyone had a palm-sized piece of multigrain cake, which could somewhat restore some physical strength.

The people of Phi Island are used to being miserable, as soon as they see this cake, their eyes are shining, these days of war, all the materials are given priority to the supply of soldiers in Dongjiang Town, the people below are more miserable, many people are still hungry, when they see a cake, they immediately devour it, some people eat a piece is not enough, directly started the idea of women, children, old and weak, actually reached out to snatch it, causing a big chaos in the scene.

"Get those cake snatchers out of here!" Zhao Song stood there and shouted, and the soldiers of the Zhao family army rushed directly into the crowd and dragged out the villains who grabbed the cakes.

"When you come to me, you have to obey the rules, and if you don't follow the rules, you will be killed!" Zhao Song's voice was hoarse.

No matter how loud the roar is, the commotion below is still there, but after a few heads were cut off, the scene immediately became quiet and orderly, but the people of Phi Island were under the jurisdiction of the officials and soldiers of Dongjiang Town, but they were not necessarily convinced by the people of Xuzhou. ”

When this question was spoken, the crowd was in a commotion again, and Zhao Song, who originally wanted to speak, was also blocked back, and immediately jumped like thunder, pointing at the shouting person and shouting: "Arrest him out, kill him who is in the way!" ”

Doubts and commotion are okay, but no one dares to stand in front of the knife and gun, the crowd immediately gave way, and the irascible Zhao Jiajun soldiers directly dragged the man out, looking at his appearance and dress, he may still be a figure before he came to Phi Dao, and there may be people here to look forward to.

"Now Xuzhou is the king!" Zhao Song said viciously, drew his knife and cut it down.

The head fell to the ground, blood gushed out, this time the crowd was completely quiet, Zhao Song jumped on a high place beside him, and roared loudly: "The Tartar army went to the island, the two ways were attacked, Dongjiang Town is over, you don't want to die, you don't want to be a cow and a horse for the Tartars, then listen to our arrangement, if you don't want to listen, you can leave now!" ”

Those who have already run here all know the situation, or believe in Zheng Xiaoer, who still wants to go, who dares to go, after a few heads landed, they were immediately quiet and obedient.

Zhao Song didn't wait for the following answer, and said directly: "Each team will pick people according to the pre-arrangement, and get busy immediately, hurry, we don't have much time!" ”

The soldiers of each company listened to the order, and in groups of several people, they quickly ran into the crowd, shouting, kicking, and beating, and each group brought more than 100 people out and ran towards the warehouses and yards, moving the goods out of the warehouses, rolling the wood on the yards, and blocking them all over the dock area.

Even women, children, the old and weak can't be idle, there are still many things for them to do in the fortress, and Zhao Song stood at a slightly higher place and stared at the soldiers and horses left behind in Jianzhou not far away, if the other party wanted to pounce, then he had to fight.

"Pick up all the weapons of the Tartars, what do you want!" Zhao Song roared and ordered.

The Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses also discovered the abnormal movement here, and wanted to step forward but retreated, Xuzhou firearms are really frightening, and now there are nearly a thousand young people, and if they fight again, they don't even have the advantage in numbers, anyway, when the north bank is finished, the army will gather here, how can they eat this fortress.

The sound from the north is getting louder and louder, and there are more and more people on Phi Island running to this side in groups of three or five, after the panic just now, everything has been ordered, someone is responsible for guiding, someone is responsible for distribution, and the heavily armed soldiers of the Zhao family army are maintaining order, without any exhortation and warning, anyone who violates the rules is dragged out with a knife, and this life is used to warn other bastards who are about to move.

The two sea ships that went out in advance did not dock, and it took a lot of time for such a big ship to dock and then set sail, and the Jianzhou Jurchens had a lot of ships in their hands, in case they were trapped and besieged, it would be a disaster, so the big ship put down the sampan in the dead corner of the fortress, and several sailors quickly slid to the shore, and the Jianzhou Jurchens could see that there were boats here, but they didn't know what was going on.

"Just say the news, you don't have to go ashore!"

"The Dongjiang Town fleet has left the battlefield and is heading to the west, the little ones saw the Dongjiang Town generals on board, but Mao Wenlong's handsome flag is still there, I don't know if he has left, the north bank has been completely chaotic, many Dongjiang officers and soldiers jumped into the sea, and now the sea is full of corpses, it won't be long before the fight over there will be over, what is the battalion's command!"
