The 186th Artillery Attack!
The siege has begun!
Nurhachi was still the same old way, first sending people to cut off the water in the moat, and then using cannon fodder to push the carts as the front, followed by the earth-filling carts, or using carts to transport wooden planks.
When they reached the moat, they used the cart as cover, and the soldiers hid behind the cart and filled the moat with earth and planks.
When the moat is filled in or passable, the carts continue to be pushed under the city.
Use the chariot to block the enemy's exterminating cannons, Franc machines, rolling wood and stones, etc., and then climb the city ladder or dig the city wall.
This set is easy to say, but it is actually very difficult to crack.
The first is that the car is very large, it is not as small as seen in film and television dramas, and the bread is covered with cowhide and iron sheets, which is very strong.
After learning the lessons of the last fire attack, Nurhachi improved the cart and wrapped another layer of iron sheet on the front of the cart so that you could not ignite it.
Second, the enemy is very open and well-trained, and once it is launched, it will be unstoppable.
Yang Chengying climbed the tower and saw the enemy attacking.
"Yes, it looks pretty well trained."
Yang Chengying's expression was flat, and he said with a smile: "If it was an ordinary city, it is estimated that the city would have been broken by him a long time ago." ”
Shang Kexi, who was on the side, accosted: "It's a pity that this is Zhenyu City, let him have a good taste of cannons." ”
"Yes, I want to know how powerful it is."
Yang Chengying took out the order flag and waved it casually.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
As Yang Chengying's order flag waved, the sound of cannons suddenly rang out, and the cannonballs from the Hongyi cannon smashed into the siege troops of Houjin like meteors.
The Hongyi cannon is a heavy artillery, and wherever the shells hit, there is a huge pit.
smashed into the chariot, and the chariot exploded in response, and the surrounding Houjin soldiers also flew out in an instant, their flesh and blood blurred.
How can a human body be compared with a powerful cannonball, and if it is forced to collide, it is undoubtedly to smash stones with eggs and shatter them.
The most important thing was that it was operated by Portuguese mercenaries and artillery units of the Ming army, mastered the art of artillery firing, and seven out of ten shells hit the car.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
This cannon sounded, the sun and the moon were really dim, and the earth shook.
Even Nurhachi, who was watching the battle from afar, was a little unstable.
The cavalry behind him, the neighing of their horses, was clearly frightened.
"What is this?"
Nurhachi looked from afar, and saw that anyone who was hit by artillery had no chance of survival.
After only two rounds of shelling, he lost more than a dozen cannon fodder for the carts and the carts.
But at this time, he still had a fluke mentality, and felt that the enemy was just that.
He did not give the order to retreat.
Although the Houjin soldiers who were not hit, they were afraid, so they had to attack head-on.
Yang Chengying asked Gongsun Sheng to send a flag again, and the bird attacked.
The soldiers who survived the artillery bombardment had just reached the moat when they heard the sound of gunfire in the city.
Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!
At the beginning of the construction of this city, a concept was proposed - crossfire.
As a result, the Houjin soldiers, who were about to arrive under the city, were immediately subjected to crossfire from at least two or even three sides.
These Ming army firearms players have undergone long-term training and can skillfully use firearms, and their quasi-heads are naturally not comparable to those who have not practiced.
Under the cover of the crossfire of the birds, another group of Houjin soldiers fell.
Even if they are lucky enough to push the cart under the city, there is another killer trick waiting for them.
Oil, piping hot oil.
"Ready, put!"
Ming soldiers operated wooden machines and poured pots of hot red oil outside the city.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
The screams kept rang out.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers lit the torches and threw them one by one under the city.
In an instant, there was a sea of fire under the city.
Immediately it turned into purgatory, blood stained the ground red, and howls everywhere were heard.
The car is still such an ending, not to mention the ladder to the city, etc., which was directly shelled.
Houjin attacked the city in the first round and ended in a fiasco.
It stands to reason that Nurhachi should be angry.
Amin, Mang Gurtai and others under his command were all angry, and they couldn't wait to swallow Yang Chengying into their stomachs.
On the contrary, Nurhachi at this time was unusually conscious.
The first round of siege was just a test that Nurhachi did not take lightly.
Those who died are cannon fodder, which is not a pity.
"Father Khan, let's withdraw."
Mang Gurtai was terrified: "This kid doesn't know where to get the artillery, it's terrifying!" ”
"Panic what! This is just the beginning, and the best is yet to come. ”
Nurhachi ordered a temporary retreat and a resumption of fighting tomorrow.
After giving the order, Nurhachi asked Bayala to stay behind to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to go out of the city and attack the Houjin army.
He himself went back first.
Back at the tent, Nurhachi told Amin and them all to go out.
Amin and the others also saw that Nurhachi was uncomfortable and quickly slipped away.
As soon as they left, Nurhachi threw the case to the ground.
On the way back, he thought about it a lot, but he didn't come up with a way to break the city.
The first round of siege damaged hundreds of cannon fodder who dreamed of becoming a bannerman, but it was also the result of only choosing to test the waters, and did not send many people, otherwise the loss would be more than this.
"If I send a lot of people to rush together, will it have an effect?"
Nurha pondered bitterly.
But when I thought of the terrifying artillery, I felt that this method of fighting was useless.
Moreover, the siege pays attention to using a bow and arrow to press the opponent's head, so that the loss of digging the wall or climbing the city will be less.
But the opponent has so many birds, and they shoot together, and there is no way to suppress it.
"Tomorrow, we'll attack again?"
Nurhachi was thinking about it when someone came to report it outside the door.
"Great Khan, something is wrong."
"What's the matter?"
"As soon as the Great Khan retreated, the place where you were standing was hit by an enemy shot, killing Bayartu, who commanded the retreat."
"Ahh
Nurhachi hurried out of the tent, and then saw the Houjin soldiers crying one by one.
"What are they crying about!"
Nurhachi asked casually.
"The subordinates don't know, the subordinates will ask."
The guard ran to ask and came back with an embarrassed expression.
Nurhachi asked him, but he refused to answer.
"If you continue to do this, see how I clean you up." Nurhachi was furious.
The guard stammered: "Great Khan, the soldiers have heard the rumors and said...... Say you've been shot and died. ”
"You're fucking dead!"
As soon as Nurhachi scolded, he was taken aback.
He remembered that he had left Bayartu behind when he left, and at the same time he had left his banner behind, so that the Houjin soldiers would believe that he, the Great Khan, was still on the ground.
In this way, the orderly retreat of the army was ensured.
Just now, I was just thinking about a good way to break the city, but I didn't expect this to happen.
Nurhachi was just about to give an order and ordered Amin and others to come and see him.
Before he could speak, he saw Amin and others crying one by one.
You don't have to ask, you know that they believe the rumors.
"Stop howling, I'm still alive."
Nurhachi shouted.
