Chapter 45: Bombardment of the Beijing Division

readx;

The suspension bridge in Pak An Province is different from the suspension bridge in ordinary cities, and the rope hanging from the wooden bridge is not ordinary hemp rope, but iron locks! These iron cables are the thickness of an arm's arm, and they are very strong and reliable, even if the giant arrow of the bed crossbow hits, it may not be able to break it!

But this is only for cold weapons, for gunpowder kinetic weapons, especially sniper rifles with rifled and relatively large calibers, this iron cable is not enough!

In order to ensure a success, Fei Fei loaded the sniper rifle with 1.5 times the launch ~ medicine, under such a charge, the speed and destructive power of the bullet will be much stronger than usual, but there are also shortcomings, that is, it will seriously reduce the service life of the sniper rifle, so many times to play, maybe it will blow up the chamber, although they are not subordinate to the firearms they are now using steel barrels, toughness is not pig iron and wrought iron barrels can be compared, but even if it is a steel barrel, there is a limit, if it is often used savagely, It's still bad to show you.

In order to prevent the Bei'an defenders from attacking her with the crossbows on the city's head, Fei Fei put on an invisibility cloak as she approached the city gate, and after coming to a hundred steps outside the city gate, she half-knelt on the ground and raised her sniper rifle with both hands!

"Bang!" A sniper rifle fired louder than usual rang out!

Less than a second later, a wire card that firmly held the top of the suspension bridge snapped and broke in two! On the other hand, the bridge that was originally hoisted high by the iron cable just now was suddenly half crooked!

Fifi smiled, pleased with the power of the bullet, and then quickly reloaded, and after only six seconds, she raised her sniper rifle again.

"Bang!"

The second iron cable broke in response!

After both cables were broken, the huge drawbridge rumbled into the land on the other side of the moat!

"Fei Fei, this guy did a good job!"

Buchen, who was watching from nearly two miles away, said with a smile that the hundred cannons he brought with him had been reloaded under the command of the NPC soldiers and the coolies. The bigwigs have also moved out of the way, and the artillery is already in a state where it can be fired at any time!

"Do you want to wait for Fei Fei to come back?" Ai Ai asked a little worriedly, Fei Fei was still in front at this time, if she hadn't come back, they would have opened fire, and it was very likely that they would accidentally injure her.

Buchen nodded without a trace of hesitation, he and Fei Fei had a quarrel, this kind of life-threatening thing can't be joked about casually.

"Let's not miss this time, let's wait for Fei Fei to come back!"

Ai Ai smiled, very satisfied with Buchen's attitude.

More than two minutes later, Fei Fei came back proudly, and raised her head proudly when she saw Buchen.

Buchen was not interested in complimenting or complimenting her, as soon as she came back, Buchen asked Ai Ai to pull her to the side of the array, and said to the captain of the NPC artillerymen: "One test shot!" ”

The captain immediately nodded in understanding, and without hesitation, he inserted a red-hot iron drill into the fire door - now the way they fire the cannon has also been improved, from the previous ignition rope to the current red-hot iron braze into the fire door, this improvement has a certain advantage, that is, it can speed up the firing speed of the artillery, when the fire rope was used before, it was necessary to wait for the fire rope to burn into the fire door, but now you can plug it in casually.

Bang!

A thunderclap rang out!

Because the smashing of the city gate can only use a large solid lead bullet, the speed of this cannonball is not very fast, people with good eyesight can capture the trajectory, and see that the cannonball flew up into the air rapidly, drawing a relatively flat trajectory, and finally smashed straight on the heavy wall next to the city gate!

"Bang!"

The solid buckshot collided violently with the green turn on the city wall, making a huge creepy sound! And the defenders on the city wall felt the wall under their feet tremble slightly!

Rubble flew and dust flew from the place where it was hit, and when the dust settled, people saw a small crater appear there.

"Shhhh The power of these twenty-four-pounder cannons is still not strong enough! If the enemy hadn't been too stupid and hadn't blocked the city gate with bricks and stones, he wouldn't have known how much he would have been bombarded in the Year of the Monkey. Buchen frowned and said.

"I heard Brother Li say that the mold of the 48-pound cannon is almost finished, or we will have a 48-pound gun available in half a month." Ai Ai smiled and reassured Bu Chen.

"Half a month?" Buchen sneered, "Far water can't quench your thirst, but fortunately, we don't need to bombard the city wall." ”

At this time, the NPC captain has corrected the firing angle of the gun, and the full cannon salvo can be fired.

"Let's get started!" Bu Chen commanded.

The defenders of the city gate already knew that something was wrong when they saw the drawbridge being shot down, and the test shot just now scared them half to death, as the party standing on the city wall and being hit, they all felt it deeply when the shell shook the wall, which made them almost pee their pants in fright!

It was a rammed earth inside, covered with three layers of green bricks, ten zhang wide and eight zhang high! It's terrifying to be bombarded and tremble!

At this time, seeing that the thieves under Buchen inserted the red-hot iron hammer in their hands into the back of the big iron bucket, these city gate guards were so frightened that they fell to the ground!

This time it's not a big iron bucket, it's a salvo of a hundred!

Bang!!!

An earth-shattering loud bang rang out!

I saw a hundred flames of light flying towards the city gate with a long trail! Then all but twenty or so shells hit the walls around the city gates!

How could a city gate, made of hardwood, covered with iron and studded with brass nails, withstand the bombardment of so many twenty-four-pound shells? Immediately it was shattered!

In the midst of the flying sawdust and iron chips, the gate of Bei'an Mansion was open to them!

However, they can't start celebrating now, as the imperial capital of the world's largest empire, the city defense facilities of Bei'an Mansion are undoubtedly super perverted, a city gate, there are as many as ten in the urn city alone, and opening the outermost city gate is just the beginning!

"Lao You, Xue, it's time for us to go!" Buchen said to his right-hand man.

Lao You and Xue both nodded excitedly, turned over and stepped onto the war horse, Buchen smiled at them, and also turned over his own horse!

"Rush! Take down the outermost wall! ”

Buchen pointed forward with a long knife, and rushed forward as soon as he took the lead, and Lao You and Xue hurriedly followed!

The reason why the target is the city wall, not the city gate, is very simple, although the outermost city gate has been blasted open, there are still nine city gates behind, and these city gates still have to be bombarded with artillery, but although the city gate is broken, the defenders on the city wall are still there, if they are not cleared, it is undoubtedly extremely dangerous for the artillery to advance directly.

In addition, the reason why they rode horses to rush was actually just to quickly approach the city wall, and when they reached the city wall, they would dismount and jump on the city head with light skills!

Well, only Lao You and Buchen use light skills, and Xue uses her own light footwork that she has learned in the endless years, but in terms of effect, it is no worse than Buchen and them.

Soon, the three of them rushed under the city wall!

"I'll go first!" Don't be subordinate to Lao Youdao.

Lao You nodded, and did not fight, after all, in terms of light work, he was not as good as a non-minister.

After taking off the stirrups with both feet, he put his hands on the saddle and flew up, and then his toes were a little more on the stirrups, and his body suddenly jumped up a little higher, and he fell lightly on the masonry that protruded from the city wall! He didn't stop there, he quickly tapped his toes on these protruding bricks and stones, and his body continued to leap up to the city!

However, to the disappointment of Buchen, the expected fierce resistance did not come, and as early as after they broke through the city gate with artillery, the defenders of the city gate were frightened and fled en masse!

After a few sucks, Lao You and Xue also went to the city, witnessing this situation, Xue's face was faintly disdainful, and Lao You scolded directly.

"Eggless cowards!"

"Alright, alright!" Buchen waved his hand and stopped Lao You, "Everyone has lived a peaceful life for three hundred years, so it's not surprising that this will happen!" ”

It's just that Lao You is not good at giving up, he pointed to his nose and said: "I am also from the Jingshi General's Sect, and I have also lived a peaceful life for three hundred years, why am I not like them?" ”

The corners of Buchen's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: Can those shrimp soldiers and crabs compare with you General You? But he said: "Then you can practice and train them in the future!" ”

Unexpectedly, Lao You was stunned when he heard his words, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face: "No, you promised to be the emperor?" ”

Buchen rolled his eyes, where is this?
