Chapter 631: Breaking the City
The artillery shells carried by the Feng army were limited, so after half an hour of preparation, they had to stop, but this half an hour was enough to make the Ma Jiajun feel terrified. Experiencing the baptism of heavy artillery for the first time is a huge test for everyone.
Ma Jiajun's dirt buns don't even have a few seven or five cannons, the fortifications are very simple, and the soldiers have no common sense of protection, many people directly put their bodies on the ground, and their internal organs were shattered by the vibration of the cannons, on the surface they were not injured at all, but black blood was already flowing from the corners of their mouths.
The others didn't know what caused it, but they were scared to death, so they became more and more afraid of the Feng army. Even Ma Chenglong and Ma Buluan could only keep sending letters to Ma Hongbin, crying and begging him to send reinforcements.
Just when the artillery fire gradually stopped, the offensive of the Feng army had begun, the soldiers formed a battle formation, quickly rushed to the position, the mortars continued to hit the shells, those remnants of the fortress were blown apart, machine guns spewed tongues of fire, and people were constantly broken to pieces.
Under the cover of fire, the soldiers quickly approached the fortress, blasting canisters, flamethrowers, all used. Bang, a fire dragon jumped out, completely enveloping a fortress, and the people inside were instantly cooked.
In this way, as if pulling a turnip, they kept knocking out one fortress after another, and the soldiers of the Feng army quickly approached the city wall. Rong Zhen is still quite satisfied with the breakthrough of the soldiers, no matter how crazy Ma Jiajun is, no matter how afraid of death is, it is not worth mentioning to Feng Jun after all.
Ma Chenglong hid in a fortress, constantly observing the situation, seeing that Ma Jiajun kept falling, and Fengjun rushed over unstoppably, he felt the fear welling up from his heart.
The enemy is just too strong, at this time. Suddenly, with a bang, a hundred-and-twenty-mm mortar shell exploded next to his fortress, and a huge shock wave shattered the fortress to a corner. The guards inside were all injured by the flying masonry, even Ma Chenglong was no exception, a shrapnel slashed past his head, and immediately took away a fist-sized piece of flesh, revealing Bai Sensen's ancient stubble.
Blood gushed out around him instantly, and his whole head suddenly turned into a blood gourd, and Ma Chenglong was also terrified to the extreme, and he touched his head with both hands.
"Do I still have a head? Do I still have a head? ”
Life and death are in such an instant. Ma Chenglong had never been so frightened, the severe pain calmed him down a little, and he ran out of the temporary headquarters suddenly, like crazy, and fled towards the city.
Just as he was approaching the city gates. Ma Hongbin happened to also come out with men and horses to reinforce, and Ma Chenglong saw Ma Hongbin as soon as he saw him. After three steps and two steps, he fell to his knees. Kowtowed to Ma Hongbin and burst into tears.
"The brothers can't hold it anymore, send reinforcements quickly!"
As soon as Ma Hongbin saw Ma Chenglong's ruined appearance, he was angry, raised his foot suddenly, and kicked him in the chest. scolded loudly: "Rice bucket, waste, do you know what the crime of escaping from the battle is?" ”
When he was scolding, Ma Hongbin suddenly noticed that many Ma Jiajun also fled with Ma Chenglong. The defense line in the northern suburbs had a tendency to collapse, and he was also extremely angry, so he suddenly pulled out his pistol and fired three shots at Ma Chenglong, killing him on the spot.
"Pick up the corpse of this rice bucket, whoever dares to run away will end up like him!"
Killed, and it was also a close faction that killed the Ma family's army, and these fleeing soldiers finally felt frightened and didn't dare to run anymore.
Ma Hongbin shouted loudly: "Go back, give me all back, whoever dares to escape, not only will I kill you, but also the wives and children in the city will not let go, if you want to cut off your children and grandchildren, just run away for me!" ”
Ma Hongbin's threat was really very lethal, and those Ma Jiajun who had fled had to kill them back, but at this time, the Feng army was getting closer and closer to the city wall, and as long as they worked harder, they could rush in.
When Ma Hongbin saw this, he was completely red-eyed, he had already invested half of his troops in the northern suburbs, and if he increased his troops, he was afraid that there would be problems in other directions. The absence of an army made Ma Hongbin panic, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of another way.
In three steps and two steps, Ma Hongbin ran back to the city, and at this time, in various neighborhoods, a group of fanatical believers had gathered, and they had all kinds of weapons in their hands, including shotguns, kitchen knives, red tassel guns and the like.
These guys shared weal and woe with Ma Jiajun, and they all took the initiative to help Ma Jiajun carry supplies and control the security of the city, Ma Hongbin walked quickly in front of these people and gathered them all.
"The people of the Lord, the Han Dog is about to come in, and it is time for you to be martyred, our temple has been blown up by the Han Dog, and they will completely destroy our faith in the next step, can you agree?"
"Can't, can't!"
"Okay, you guys rush out now and kill all the dogs!"
After Ma Hongbin's encouragement, these people formed a team and rushed out to the northern suburbs. The Feng army was advancing quickly, but suddenly a large crowd of people appeared in front of them, all dressed and armed, shouting, and rushed towards the Feng army.
In the face of the surging crowd, some soldiers have not yet figured out the situation, these are ordinary people, how can they run to the battlefield?
Just when he hesitated a little, two soldiers were rushed to the front by the flow of people, they subconsciously opened fire, killing several people, but the others were not afraid of death at all, and rushed over more frantically, drowning the two soldiers.
The frenzied crowd will soon beat the two soldiers to the ground with various weapons, and the others will finally react, and they are not faced with a crowd of civilians, but a mob, a full thug.
Machine guns, submachine guns rang out in an instant, and the bullets of hatred pierced the bodies of the gang, shattering their hearts and intestines, piercing their hearts and brains, and soon they turned into corpses and fell to the ground.
However, there are more and more follow-up personnel, like a tide, they don't know how to stop at all, the fanaticism is abnormal, some people are getting closer and closer, and the soldiers can only keep throwing grenades, constantly retreating, and returning to the defense line left by the Ma Jiajun, using these bunkers to attack the surging crowd.
The follow-up Feng army finally caught up, the firepower and the crowd formed a terrible balance, there were more and more corpses on the ground, piled up, blood flowed everywhere, and the terrible shouts shook the surroundings, as if there was no end to the gang, and the offensive of the Feng army was finally suppressed.
Ma Hongbin didn't care how many people died, as long as he could suppress the offensive of the Feng army and drag it to Ma Fuxiang's return, even if all the people in the city died, he didn't feel distressed.
And after Rong Zhen got the news, his brows suddenly furrowed, this kind of crowd tactics made him both helpless and angry, Rong Zhen frowned, and thought carefully about the map.
"Immediately order, continue to increase the intensity of the attack on the front, attract the attention of the Ma Jiajun, and then let the tanks bypass from the side and attack the western suburbs."
In Rong Zhen's hands, there are only four tanks, after all, under the conditions of this terrain in the northwest, it is quite difficult to use a large number of tanks.
The only tank was hit, and Yu Xuezhong also led the cavalry battalion as a support, forming a rapid assault force.
Quietly bypassing the northern suburbs, they rushed towards the western suburbs, and at this time it was dusk again, and the battle was still fierce, with a large number of deaths at every moment.
Finally, when the sun had completely set, they managed to reach the western outskirts, and four tanks rushed to the front, leveling all obstacles, and the cavalry battalion followed closely.
These steel monsters are definitely not something that the Ma Jiajun can fight against, and the defenders in the western suburbs are seriously overwhelmed, so the Feng army can easily crush them. A cavalry company of Ma Jiajun also tried to counterattack, they rushed over, but they were mercilessly strafed by tank and machine gun fire, and thirty or forty people were killed in an instant, and the remnants of the men and horses also scattered and fled when they saw such a monster.
The Feng army quickly entered the city wall, and the main guns of the tanks could not help the thick city walls, so they could only suppress the counterattack on the city with firepower. The demolition team once again took on the mission of breaking the city, and the Ningxia Provincial Wall was much stronger than Pingluo, and the Feng army threw in hundreds of blasting canisters at once.
The news of the Feng army's raid on the western suburbs was naturally reported to Ma Hongbin, and he was also shocked into a cold sweat and hurriedly sent men and horses to help.
Just when the reinforcements were still more than two hundred meters away from the city wall, there was a boom! The sound was earth-shattering, and they only felt that the earth was shaking, and many people fell to the ground, and some even had blood coming out of their ears. The tall walls cracked horribly, expanding at a rate visible to the naked eye, and then crumbling with a bang.
Just as the walls fell, the dust obscured all vision, and the men finally regained some of their senses, and thought that the steel monster rushed out of the ruins and quickly killed them.
These soldiers have been shocked to lose all their courage, zaijian to these tanks, there is no longer the courage to resist, they are scrambling to flee, but it is too late, Yu Xuezhong also led the cavalry battalion, rushed in through the gap.
After entering, they rushed towards Ma Jiajun, and the bright saber waved, like chopping melons and vegetables, and Ma Jiajun's people fell to the ground one after another.
The western suburbs were breached, the Feng army entered the city, and the defense line of the provincial wall was completely broken, at this time the northern suburbs also launched a fierce attack, flesh and blood are not the opponent of steel after all, the Ma family army finally showed signs of collapse, and the Feng army entered the city from two roads.
The sound of gunfire, cannons, and shouts of killing were all intertwined, and the Feng army that entered the city was unceremonious, and anyone who resisted was shot mercilessly. Ma Hongbin didn't expect to lose so quickly, he could only call his subordinates and cronies, and fled from Nancheng in a hurry. (To be continued......)
