Chapter 117: Assault

The Tangut people's 'refueling tactics' played a role, first after a few rounds of artillery firing, because the gun body was overheated, they did not dare to reload, otherwise there would be a danger of exploding, so they could only temporarily withdraw from the battle to calm down; then the two 'Gatlings' were stuck, and the psychological quality of the shooters was not up to par, because the machine guns relied on hand crank to control the rate of fire, the shooters saw the enemy swarming, and they couldn't help but add some strength under their hands, and the result was that the machine guns were eaten up -- they were not digested, and this kind of malfunction was quite troublesome to deal with, and they had to withdraw from the battle.

The maximum rate of fire of the repeater gun can reach thirteen or four rounds per minute, which is not easy to achieve if you count the time for changing cartridges, while the theoretical rate of fire of the machine gun can reach four hundred rounds, that is, it is a half-fold, and there are more than two hundred, and one machine gun can at least top half of it, and the heavy weapons are paralyzed at once, and the pressure is concentrated on the shoulders of the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion who are holding the bead guns.

"Attention, shoot the horse first, aim at the horse and shoot!" The battalion commander Zhao Zhong saw that the situation was grim, and while ordering people to repair the machine gun, he walked out of the command post and went deep into the front line, and saw that the enemy's cavalry had taken advantage of the moment of weakened firepower to quickly break past the infantry and advance to within 100 steps, and hurriedly shouted.

Although the Flying Tiger Battalion was also expanded by the old army, three-quarters of the Sheding and the forbidden army were added in, and it only took a few months to contact the Lianzhu guns, and some of them only began to touch the guns when they arrived in Hedong, and their experience and proficiency were far behind those of the veterans. In the previous paragraph, in response to the call of the prince, 'to fight instead of training', I also participated in some battles, all of which were small-scale border conflicts, and the battle of two or three hundred people could be regarded as a 'big war', and now the Xia army has used thousands of troops, that is, the Xiangyi army is strictly trained and disciplined, and it is not so overwhelmed that it panics, but nervousness is inevitable, especially looking at the galloping horses, there are only people left on the horses in their eyes, and they forget about the bigger goal!

"The enemy's cavalry is not terrible, calmly respond to the battle to hit him, the target is big and easy to fight, the platoon gun quickly release a salvo to kill..."Zhao Zhong's words reminded the veterans, they took the lead in singing the "Song of Fighting Cavalry" taught by the prince, and for a time the position was accompanied by the sound of gunfire like jumping beans, and the guns became rhythmic under the command of the officers of each capital and group, and a fire network was reconstructed at the front...

Zhao Ren looked at the sun in the sky that was covered by gunpowder smoke has turned west, and it will not take long to fall into the valley, the battlefield has now fallen into an inexplicable atmosphere, a hundred steps in front of the city, the corpses of the Xia soldiers and horses are piled up into a long corpse mound, where it seems to have become the boundary of life and death, as long as you step on it, it is death, and your own soldiers are also exhausted, the reserves have all been pressed, all the officers are standing in a trench with the soldiers, and the township soldiers are also ready to take over, "It should be Shen Shi, The prince should be ready to attack! He said to himself that Shen Shi was the decisive moment he had agreed with the prince.

The attacking Xia army fell into confusion and fear, they didn't understand that it was impossible to disobey, what to waste their lives for, a desperate attack in one day, there were hundreds of dead officers, and the soldiers were countless, anyway, some tribes estimated that there were widows left, such as mountain corpses, and the bloody atmosphere that rushed to the sky, which had made these brave Xia soldiers discouraged.

They were reluctant to move forward under the threat of whips and knives and guns, and they began to push and shove the officers who supervised the war, and they were no longer afraid, even if they were fools, they knew that they were going to die. The big and small chieftains who followed Li Jifeng were sure that the army was crazy, and they were taking their sons to get rich, not to die, and let us come to the funeral with your dead son, this business can't be done, and some people began to retreat quietly, ready to learn from Ye Lisa. Just when the army's heart was fluctuating, suddenly there was a loud noise in the distance, and the whole valley seemed to shake with it, and they looked back in surprise, but their vision was blocked by the winding valley wall. …,

．．．．．．

The Xia army guard of Yamato Fort suddenly received a report that a Song army appeared outside the city. They had already reconnoitred within a radius of twenty miles, and even if Yincheng sent a probe horse, they did not find any trace of the Song army, but after listening to the report, he did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly put on his helmet and armor and went up to the city tower. I saw that the front was dusty, a team of cavalry had arrived at the city in a blink of an eye, a handsome flag fluttered in the wind, and the book 'Xiangyi Army', the Xia army was taken aback, didn't the Xiangyi army have already reinforced, how could it appear under the city, did they fly back?

The Xiangyi army lined up in five hundred steps outside the city, three flags were flying, and a black horse under the banner of Xinghuang Shuai stood solemnly, "Where the battalion that kills a thousand enemies in this battle will be rewarded according to the law, and the battalion flag will be embroidered with a red star, and the beheading of five hundred embroidered hollow red stars will be killed, regardless of officers and soldiers, five enemies will be killed, an armband will be added to a silver star, and ten enemies will be killed to increase a gold star, and then take this as an example!" Zhao Ta shouted loudly.

"Roar, roar, roar!" Zhao Ta's voice was loud, the soldiers' responses were fierce, and the little faces were red with excitement, Zhao Ta was very satisfied, he knew that only when a unit had a sense of honor could it have cohesion and combat effectiveness, and only by stimulating the soldiers' sense of honor could they forget their fears.

"This battle is related to the future of my Xiangyi army, if we are defeated, we will not come back!" Zhao Ta drew his knife in his hand, and the blade pointed straight ahead, "Gao Pet obeys the order, take the city!" ”

"Yes!" Gao Pet gave a salute on the horse, Pegasus came out, the horse was like flying, stopped two hundred steps outside the city, picked up the bow in his hand, pulled out a rocket, and the soldiers lit the fire, Gao Pet bent the bow and pulled the arrow to ignite the rocket, shot at the city, and then turned the horse's head and ran back with his life.

The town guard standing on the head of the city thought that Gao Pet was going to take the city alone, and when he saw that he could shoot an arrow, he turned around and ran, and couldn't help but laugh at Ha Lu Ha Da Lu, but his laughter was soon drowned out by a loud noise, and he flew up with the city tower, and the city wall of Yamato Fort was blown out of a gap more than ten zhang wide, no need to ask that the explosives were buried under the city wall by Zhao Ta, and the Xia soldiers stood on the explosives pile for three days without knowing it, and it was over when they knew it!

Without waiting for the hustle and bustle to fall, Gao Zhong took the lead in leading the Tenglong battalion to rush into the fort from the collapsed city wall, they rushed all the way along the main road, cutting every time someone came out with a knife, and hitting when they saw someone pulling out a gun, rushing all the way, grabbing the south gate first, opening the gate and going along the road without stopping. The Xunshi battalion also followed closely into the fort, and all three of them acted separately, A all went up the city wall along the horse road and controlled the commanding heights, B went straight to the warehouse and controlled the arsenal granary, and C held the various intersections. After the Jaguar battalion entered the city, they quickly dismounted and searched for the remnants of the enemy along the streets, except for the Xiangyi army in this fort, it was the Xia army, there was no problem of accidental injury, as long as the clothes were different, it was impossible to kill with a knife.

After the castle was controlled, the engineer team quickly stepped forward and cleared a passage in the collapsed castle, and the random artillery detachment also immediately went out of the city, Zhao Ta did not stay under the protection of the guards and passed through the city, and the baggage team that entered the city immediately took over the task of sweeping away the remnants of the enemy and the Jaguar battalion, guarding the prisoners and holding the castle, the Xun Lion battalion followed the footsteps of the prince and went away, and the engineer team built fortifications at the south gate of Yamato Fort.

In just a quarter of an hour, the highly favored Tenglong battalion had already broken through the rear army of the Xia army with lightning speed, completely disrupting their formation. At this time, all the units arrived one after another, and Zhao Ta immediately adjusted the formation, and the six carriages of the machine gun detachment were in the forefront, and this carriage was no longer the other carriage, but had been completely transformed.

The carriage is equipped with a spring turf like the four-wheeled and the prince's car, but it is much smaller, with a large wheel base and large wheels, which ensures the stability and passability of the car, and the box plate of the car has been reinforced, pulled by two strong horses in heavy armor, and a hand-cranked machine gun is erected, and there are three crew members in the car, two shooters and one driver. This car is imitated from the wheeled vehicle used by the Red Army of the former Soviet Union in the civil war of the "Makhno bandit army", and it can be said to be a medium tank with both attack and defense in this era. …,

"Draw your sword, charge!" Zhao Ta held the saber, and as soon as he shouted, he was pulled back by Zhao Xin dragging his horse reins, Gao Zhong smiled, and the soldiers of the Xiangyi Army also laughed, making Zhao Ta hateful and faceless.

At this time, Xia Jun had already reacted, everyone understood that his butt had been stabbed, Xia Jun was in a panic, the front was blocked, and the back made people take off their pants and prepare to spank, Li Jifeng was a little stupid, and understood that the reinforcements of the Song Army had arrived! But after all, he has commanded the army for many years, and quickly calmed down, and said that although he lost troops under the city, he still has more than 10,000 soldiers in his hands, including more than 5,000 cavalry, and the Song army can rarely take advantage of it in the field, so he still has confidence, he flew to the rear army, organized the team, and prepared to defeat the enemy's reinforcements first, and then decide the next move.

'Tick tock...' The trumpet sounded, Zhao Ta would wait for the Xia army to line up to deal with him, and ordered the charge, the Xiangyi army lined up in a column of twenty people, drew their sabers with brushes, put the guns behind their backs, and began to charge under the guidance of the wheeled vehicle. At a distance of 300 paces from the enemy, he first began to advance at a slow pace, then turned to a fast step, and at 200 paces he switched to a light run, and began to speed up his advance, turned to a fast run, and when there were still fifty paces left, he advanced at full speed, and the Xia army also hastily mobilized several groups of cavalry, and also began to prepare for the hedge!

"Kill, kill, kill..." The six motorcycles began to shoot in the gallop, and the fierce fire immediately tore through the array of the Xia army, sweeping out a bloody alley, this voice The soldiers of the Xia army have been listening to it for almost a day, how can they not know what the road is, as soon as the rider in front of him fell off the horse, the followers behind immediately got out of the way, and dodged a road, the dragon camp was in front, the guards protected the prince in the middle, and after the quick lion was broken, after a slash, they actually let them easily pass through the formation!
