Chapter 222: A Swarm of Bees

Li Dazui put away the look of disdain on his face at this time, yelled at his subordinates, issued orders one by one, and transferred some soldiers on the wall back and forth from time to time, so that they could go to the places where they were needed more.

Suddenly, only a roar was heard, and the wall on Xiaotian's left hand suddenly shook violently, and a lot of earth and stones fell on the wall for a long time, and some people were even shocked to the ground and almost fell to the ground, and the inside of the wall, which originally looked quite strong, suddenly appeared a lot of cracks.

Yu Xiaotian hurriedly turned his head to look and found that it was a cannonball fired by a Hongyi cannon of Chu Cailao, which finally hit the wall of the Sea Wolf Village.

More than a dozen pounds of projectiles at a speed of hundreds of meters per second, carrying a huge impact force, smashed heavily on the wall, the thick log outside the wall was punched out of a huge hole, the shell was deeply embedded in the wall, just a little, the wall out of a hole.

However, this shell still caused a lot of damage to the wall, and the soil and rocks in the wall were shaken loose, and many cracks were cracked.

Yu Xiaotian's heart suddenly tightened, but he immediately regained his calm demeanor, turned his head and continued to look at the battlefield.

Chu Cailao's two cannons began to feel a little at this time, their first few cannons were either too high or too low, and even one of the cannonballs simply fell in the crowd of their own people, accidentally injuring two of their own people.

But after a few rounds of calibration, the gunners under Chu Cai's old men still found some sense, and began to make their cannons aim more accurately, and this was the first time that they accurately hit the wall of the Sea Wolf Village.

When they saw that the wall of the sea wolf village had been hit by a heavy cannon and was punched out of a big hole, Chu Cailao's subordinates cheered again, as if they had seen the scene of the wall collapsing, and they were all full of hope again.

When this cannonball fell on the wall, the psychological pressure of the sea wolf people also increased a lot, each of them knew very well, how much this wall meant to them, so far, the reason why they were able to fight smoothly, the old Chu Cai's men beat the people on their backs, the key is that they have the advantage of geographical advantages, they can hide on the wall and slaughter the enemy boldly.

But once the wall is destroyed, it is difficult for them to imagine that with such a small number of them, they can continue to block the crazy attack of these old Chu Cai's men, once Chu Cai's old people rush into Dazhai, the consequences are almost unimaginable.

At this time, some people began to be a little scared again, their hands were not as stable as they were just now, their reloading speed was also slowed down, and their hits were not as accurate as they were just now.

"Tell Li Dazui to make the shilling six-pounder cannon shell the two cannons of Chu Cailao, and if you can't hit it, let's put some pressure on them first, and hurry up and transport the twelve-pounder cannon! Hold on! Yu Xiaotian instructed the guards beside him on the watchtower.

Today he said that the command of the battle was handed over to Li Dazui, so it was inconvenient for him to directly intervene in Li Dazui's command at this time, but sent people to guide Li Dazui from behind.

After Li Dazui heard the order, he immediately sent someone to inform the gunners of several six-pounder guns, and ordered them to find a way to fire at the two Chu Cailao cannons in the distance, and it was best to hit them.

This order is really a bit difficult for the gunners of these six-pounder guns, the effective range of the six-pounder cannon is about 400 meters, although the farthest range can reach the two Chu Cailao's Hongyi cannons, but their target is only a point at such a distance, the target of Chu Cailao's cannon is a wide and long village, if you want to hit those two cannons at such a distance, it can be said that you can only rely on God to take care of it.

Although the gunners of several six-pounder guns knew that there was little hope, they immediately hurriedly raised the muzzles of the guns, adjusted them to the angle of large elevation angles, and began to fire at the two Hongyi cannons.

Several cannons fired one after another, and the shells whistled out, crossing the battlefield and flying to the location of Chu Cailao's two cannons, and the observer nervously observed the landing point of the cannonballs.

"Grandma's, hit low! It's too far off! The shell landed at least thirty paces in front of the target! One of the observers punched the wall and turned to his companions.

"Reload, hurry! Push the cannon back! Pad up! Raise the muzzle a little higher! Grandma's, this light door is almost useless! It's hard to aim! The gunner muttered as he ordered.

The shelling effect of several guns was basically the same, and the shells fell far away from the enemy guns, which basically did not pose much threat to Chu Cailao's two guns, and this result made these gunners very depressed, muttering and scolding, while quickly reloading and adjusting the angle of the artillery.

After a while, there was another violent vibration on the wall, and the upper part of the wall immediately collapsed a large piece, and a cannonball from the old Hongyi cannon of Chu Cai hit the upper part of the wall, near the female wall, and even the part of the female wall on the wall collapsed.

A sea wolf was right next to the cannonball's landing point, and as the cannonball hit, he was knocked out of the wall by the flying clods of earth, and fell to the inside of the wall.

The sea wolf tribes couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the scene where the shells landed, and they were all secretly shocked in their hearts, but they didn't dare to delay more, so they quickly turned their heads again and began to fight under the wall.

At this time, the minions carrying a swarm of bees also approached the front of the village, scattered and lined up boxes and boxes of bees outside the village, pulled out a medicine twist from the box, removed the cover plate in front of the box, and revealed the honeycomb-like structure of the rocket inside.

"All bow your heads! Take cover! When they saw that Chu Cai's old subordinates had placed so many swarm rockets, the experienced sea wolf tribe immediately squatted down and hid under the female wall.

The guards rushed up to the watchtower, and couldn't help but use their shields to cover the bodies of Yu Xiaotian, Lin Yiyang and others, and dragged them down from the watchtower and hid under the wall. ,

As soon as Yu Xiaotian stepped on the ground, he heard a whistling sound outside the wall, and then a cluster of arrows flew over the wall.

The trajectory of these arrows is not stable, and some of the rockets are scurrying around in the air because their tail feathers are burned by flames, and no one knows where they will land.

But the more this is the case, the more frightening it is, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads to dodge, almost in a few breaths, Chu Cailao's subordinates lit ten boxes of swarm rockets in a row, these swarms of bees are generally loaded with more than 30 rockets per box, and there are also a little less, loaded with 20 rockets, but at the same time, there is also a box that can be loaded with 100 rockets, but a swarm of bees loaded with 100 rockets has been called a hundred tigers rushing arrows.

Chu Cai Lao in order to lay down the village, this time it can be said that he spared no expense, and took out the good goods at the bottom of the box, and this first round put a swarm of about ten boxes of bees, after the medicine twist of the box was ignited, the medicine cylinder on the rocket arrow shaft was ignited by the medicine twist, and the tail immediately erupted flames, urging the arrow shaft to fly out of the box.

This time, hundreds of arrows flew out, and there was really an overwhelming feeling, swishing and whistling towards the big village of the sea wolf, of course, there were some runaway rockets that flew to the top of their own heads, and immediately suppressed the resistance of the sea wolf people.

After this round of rockets passed, I looked at the wall of the sea wolf village, which was like a layer of reed flowers, full of arrows from top to bottom.

However, although this kind of rocket looks very powerful, it is obviously not a very suitable weapon to deal with the sea wolf Dazhai, after all, the sea wolf tribe basically has support, and can hide behind the battlements and female walls on the wall, except for a few people who can't dodge and are injured, most of them are safe and sound in front of this round of rocket salvo.

It's just that some rockets flew over the wall and landed in the stockade, and several of them deviated too far and actually flew to a place where the islanders gathered, shooting two islanders, basically without causing more damage to the sea wolves.

However, these rockets still caused some trouble for the sea wolves, forcing the sea wolf troops to crouch down to defend against arrows, so that their counterattack firepower was immediately stopped.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Cailao's subordinates under the walled wall howled and began to struggle to erect the long ladder in their hands, and put a pair of deputy long ladders on the wall.

A large number of Chu Cailao's subordinates began to flock to these erected long ladders, and they began to cling to the long ladders and climb towards the wall.

"Musketeers with bayonets! Brothers, copy them down! When Li Dazui saw a long ladder appear on the wall, he pulled out the waist knife from his waist and raised it above his head and roared loudly.

At this time, the battle between the two sides began to enter the level of hand-to-hand combat, and countless Chu Cailao's subordinates tried to climb the wall through long ladders, and the sea wolf tribes on the wall began to find ways to defeat these guys.

At this time, the cannons on both sides were not idle, they were still firing at each other, the shells were flying horizontally under the wall, and the arrows and guns were staggered back and forth.

The wall of the sea wolf will shake violently every once in a while, leaving a deep crater on the wall, and there is a cannonball of Chu Cai's old Hongyi cannon that even directly blasted a transparent hole in the wall, and the cannonball penetrated the wall and rolled down in the village.

It was only by this time that the twelve-pounder was transported from the northeast corner to this side, and was re-placed on a turret.

The gunner of the twelve-pounder cannon did not have time to catch his breath, and began to operate frantically, the medicine bag was taken out of the box, and sent into the muzzle, and someone smashed it into the bottom of the gun chamber with a cannon, and then someone held a cannonball wrapped in a layer of linen cloth and sent it into the muzzle, and someone quickly smashed it into the gun chamber, and vigorously tamped the shell and the medicine bag, and at the end of the gun, a gunner took out the awl, inserted it from the fire door, pierced the oil paper of the medicine bag, and poured the medicine into the fire door, ready to be loaded.

With the joint efforts of more than a dozen gunners, the cannon was quickly pushed to the gun position, and the gun commander began to find the target position by looking at the crosshair, and roared loudly to make the gun muzzle lift and pad into the wood chips.

"That's it! Get out of the way! Fire! After the gun commander found the target, he stood up and flashed to the side of the cannon, waved away the person at the end of the cannon, gave the order to open the cannon, and opened his mouth wide.

A gunner had already prepared a torch, and immediately pestled it into the fire door at the end of the gun.

After everyone only felt the violents violently, they heard a loud roar in their ears, which made their ears buzz and feel very uncomfortable.

After the twelve-pounder cannon fired, it created a considerable recoil force, pushing the heavy gun carriage towards the recoil in an instant, and retreating several steps before stopping.

"The shell is in the left front direction and misses!" The observer stared wide-eyed in the direction of the target, shouted loudly, and reported the location of the shell to the other gunners.

Several gunners sighed heavily, with a look of regret and disappointment on their faces, but they did not dare to slack off, and immediately pounced on the cannon and began a series of operations such as cleaning and reloading......
