Chapter 398. Calculations after storming the city walls

This is a general attack that is completely pressed up, a stud from Levi!

There is no need to fight back and forth with medieval wars, and there is no need to grabs walls or key points like siege warfare in feudal times. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Troops from modern times, siege battles are straightforward!

The artillery opens the way, the soldiers follow, and if it can't be attacked, it retreats, and if it is attacked, it attacks.

And now, Levi looked at the city wall that had collapsed into a larger area, and of course he chose to attack!

"Barbary pirates are ahead, and the privates are behind!"

Wilmot held the cavalry sword in his hand, followed the soldiers forward, looked up at the collapsed city wall, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, turned his head and shouted: "The guerrillas follow behind and shoot at will, sniping at the opponent's long-range fire!" ”

Although the Spanish partisans were not regular troops, because they used special long-barreled flintlock pistols, the range was far more than that of ordinary flintlock pistols.

And in the hands of these guerrillas who practice accurate shooting all year round, accuracy can also be guaranteed.

For now, at least, any archers and crossbowmen who dare to appear on the walls will face a terrible truth.

When they show their heads, the Spanish guerrillas, who have already been ready, will pull the trigger and hit them in the head with superb marksmanship.

Even if it was protected by masonry with shooting holes, crisp gunshots appeared one after another, and red and white flowers began to bloom.

The remaining archers or crossbowmen on both sides of the city wall, looking at the tragic appearance of their comrades even having their skulls opened, did not dare to continue to emerge for a while.

"Kill! Allah is the Greatest, and when we die, we will ascend to Heaven! ”

The Barbary pirates in front of them charged faster without the harassment of archers and crossbowmen on both sides.

Running fast under their feet, they all sprinted wildly with red eyes and scimitars, climbing up the ruins of the somewhat rugged city walls, looking at the riotous inner city garrisons below, and grinning one by one.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The rain of arrows tore through the air and fell with a scream, and the rounded shafts of the arrows were as sharp as the arrows easily pierced into the bodies of the pirates, tearing through the internal organs and various organs.

But after all, it is a feather arrow of a cold weapon, and it can't cause the effect of lead bullets that can instantly make an adult man lose his combat effectiveness.

These murderous Barbary pirates charged forward without hesitation, crawling through the ruins of the city wall with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and continuing to rush towards the elite guards of the inner city who had already lined up in front of them!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

The rain of arrows would appear in waves every ten seconds, and the buzzing sound tore through the air.

Although the lethality of the bow and arrow decreases with distance, the frequency of fire is the fastest except for automatic fire rifles!

Just by the short distance of seven or eight meters that the Barbary pirates climbed over the ruins of the collapsed city wall, they endured at least four waves of arrow rain, and even those pirates at the front, all of them were planted with feather arrows and crossbow arrows in their fronts, although they were still charging forward, but looking at the blood that appeared in their mouths, they knew that this was just a return to the light, with a bloody charge.

Then these pirates in the front row fell, and in a short distance of seven or eight meters, hundreds of pirates were killed.

But the pirates who were basically unharmed in the back finally stepped onto the stone branch floor in the inner city, quickly lined up closely, raised their heads one by one, waved the scimitar in their hands and continued to charge forward!

"Array, block them!"

The elite guards of the inner city were armed with halberds, and they had been lined up in a traditional phalanx of spears, with sharp halberds aimed at the outside, and even the knights in heavy armor did not dare to charge from the front in a dense formation.

But those pirates are not afraid!

The distance between the two sides was less than fifty meters, and there were crossbowmen with heavy crossbows shooting, the ratchet was wound quickly, and the stubby crossbow arrows easily pierced the bodies of these pirates, so close at such a distance, even wearing leather armor could not stop the attack of the heavy crossbow, and their casualties became faster.

"Bang bang

Suddenly, a crisp bang appeared in the rear, breaking the prelude of these Barbary pirates gritting their teeth and charging forward quickly.

At the top of the ruins of the city wall, the privates armed with flintlock pistols finally appeared there, one by one, their faces were grim, and the muzzles of the black holes were aimed at the densely arranged elite guards of the inner city on the inside, and without hesitation, they took the captain's order as the center, pulled the trigger and completed a salvo!

"Ah, no! My brother! You're not going to die, my brother..."

"Help me! Help me, don't! ”

"I don't want to die! Uh, ah, help me... Help me! ”

The elite guards of the inner city fell in a row almost in unison, and on the ruins of the city wall, nearly 500 privates were lining up to fire a salvo, and in this distance of less than 100 meters, the accuracy and power were still in the effective range!

Even the seemingly excellent chain mail can't block a shot of 20mm lead bullet at all, which is enough to kill the terrifying killing effect!

Nearly more than 200 elite guards in the inner city collapsed miserably covering their wounds.

The lead bullets that had been fired into their bodies had shattered, tearing their internal organs straight away, causing massive bleeding in a short period of time, and if left untreated, death awaited them.

But the level of medical care in the Middle Ages, even if it was treatment, was only death.

"Kill!"

The Barbary pirates suddenly accelerated their charge, they had been waiting for this salvo, and seeing that the halberd phalanx in front of them was torn apart by the lead bullet volley, they gritted their teeth and charged, using their bodies, and continued to crash into them, the scimitar swept away the halberds that stabbed one by one, and began to fight in close combat without fear of death!

Although their scimitars can't cut through two layers of chain mail, what they have to do is to use their bodies to entangle these elite guards in the inner city, and they can't leave rashly.

Because the privates with flintlock pistols behind them had all crossed the city wall, came to the inner city with their flintlock pistols, and quickly set up the line.

A rain of arrows was falling rapidly, and the Spanish guerrillas who appeared on the ruins of the city wall were already holding their long-barreled flintlock pistols and began to shoot accurately, suppressing the archers on the roofs of the houses in the distance, or the bed crossbows and ballistas that were still being rewound!

"Coordinates XXX, 12-pounder infantry gun, salvo!"

But on the ruins of the city wall, several artillerymen were coldly calculating the trajectory, quickly returning to the artillery position, and after reporting the coordinates, the heavy shells had been reloaded into the barrel.

The modern artillery is an excellent talent who is proficient in mathematics, they can calculate the coordinates and ballistics, and make the artillery more powerful, because the modern artillery completely abandons the experience of firing artillery, and all are based on mathematics, which is the prototype of the real modern artillery and the king of war with great power.

And the coordinates reported by these artillerymen are precisely on the city wall in the distance, on the roof of the house where the bed crossbow is located!

PS: Recently, the Qingming Festival, a little busy, the update didn't keep up, sorry...
