On the front line of the Hunhe River in Liaoyang, in the camp of the Ning Navy, the soldiers of the Ning Navy were talking in groups about the good news of Xingu's high production, and also about the fire ox carts in Liaodong, talking about who married a daughter-in-law, whose daughter-in-law was fierce, and whose daughter-in-law was virtuous, without the slightest sense of tension about the coming of the big war.

When Cheng Shijie arrived at the front line, he saw that the officers and men of the Ning Navy were very easy to pull their parents, and there was no frustration at all about the frustration of the attack.

Cheng Shijie was very satisfied with the performance of the officers of the Ning Navy, the lion should be relaxed before pounced on the prey, if he trembled like walking on thin ice, then he would catch a fart hunt!

In front of an artillery position, except for a few sentries, most of the officers and men sat in the anti-artillery hole, listening to what a young soldier was saying.

When Cheng Shijie arrived, a team member recognized Cheng Shijie, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "Handsome!" ”

Cheng Shijie waved his hand, asked him to sit down, looked at the soldiers with a smile and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Team Zheng said: "Xiao Wang, you're telling us the story of Lord Yue." ”

Cheng Shijie said lightly: "Lord Yue...... He was a very remarkable man, who brought out a well-disciplined iron army that could fight the Jin State Iron Cavalry on the Great Plain of North China without falling behind. Although he is dead, his loyalty, his ambition to beat the enemy back to his hometown, can be described as immortal. ”

Admiral Zhongning said: "So we have to learn from Lord Yue!" ”

"Yes, we must learn from Lord Yue, and beat all the enemies who dare to step into our homeland back to their hometowns. It's about to be a decisive battle with Jiannu, are you nervous? ”

Cheng Shijie looked at these immature faces, the expansion speed of the Ning Navy is actually very fast, four years ago the Ning Navy had less than 10,000 people, three years ago there were more than 40,000, two years ago it was close to 100,000, and now it is more than 300,000 horses.

The team was patting the gun on the back: "Nervous bird!" With such a good gun and such ample ammunition, Jiannu is a fart! ”

Now the equipment of the Ning Navy has changed, the original infantry of the Ning Navy, crossbow shooters accounted for two-thirds of the proportion, although the number of crossbow machines in the Ning Navy is still nearly 20 percent, but most of these equipment are concentrated in the hands of the reconnaissance troops, compared with the firebolt, the crossbow machine has a greater advantage than the firebolt when touching the whistle or assassinating.

The current firearms equipped by the Ning Navy are actually transitional products, so there is no large-scale equipment, and this kind of firearms is a flintlock type, with a caliber of four points, about 12.6 millimeters.

For muskets, the caliber between 12 and 13 mm is ideal, if it is less than this caliber, the lethality will be greatly reduced, and if it is larger than this caliber, it will become dead and heavy, and it must be mounted on a stand before it can be fired.

After repeated experiments, the Gun Bureau of the Ning Navy set the caliber at four points, that is, 12.6 millimeters, and this bullet was just right.

Different from ordinary firearms, ordinary firecrackers generally have rounded bullets, while this kind of bullets are cylindrical, pointed in front and concave in the back, and wrapped in several layers of nitrate paper in the middle, which is very peculiar.

In particular, there are four rifling wires in the barrel, and the firing range is much farther than that of ordinary firearms, which can break the double-layer iron armor within a hundred steps, and the three-layer iron armor of the Jiannu white-armored soldiers within fifty steps, that is to say, even the most elite white-armored soldiers of Jiannu are equivalent to being defenseless in front of the firearms of the Ning Navy.

The rate of fire of this gun is also faster than that of ordinary guns, and it can even catch up with the bolt-action rifles of later generations, reaching 12 to 15 rounds per minute, and the performance is very reliable.

In this war, the Ning Navy is actually participating in this new type of firearm, the ammunition is open to supply, each musketeer's bullet bag is filled with sixty rounds, if it is a crossbowman, two pots of arrows and thirty arrows, this is the standard.

No matter how much it is, because after a battle, the ability of a crossbow machine to shoot thirty arrows is already very remarkable.

Of course, the Gun Bureau of the Ning Navy not only launched this new type of firecracker, but also improved the Thunderbolt, first of all, the Thunderbolt Bolt with 30 sets was simplified, and the 30 loads were changed to 6 loads, and the ammunition supply method was also revolted, so that it was more lightweight.

Each team now has six flintlock pistols, plus a six-pack with two shooters on one side, plus two revolvers, two shields, two spears, and a cover unit.

Of course, Cheng Shijie is not equipped with a bayonet, because even if he is equipped with a bayonet, the length of the flintlock pistol with a bayonet is just over one meter eight, in the wars of later generations, it is not a loss to have such a bayonet to fight hard, but the problem is that this is the last afterglow of cold weapons, and the Jiannu army has a large number of pikemen, and the spear is usually more than two and a half meters.

Cheng Shijie is equipped with a revolver for the officers and men of the Ning Navy, the revolver has six bullets, if the bullet is finished, you can use an imitation of the six-five style sapper shovel hand-to-hand combat, the sapper shovel is sixty centimeters long, the steel mouth is excellent, the two sides are open, the shovel head is triangular, very sharp, the effect of grasping with both hands is the same as an axe, swing the whole arm to the shoulder and it will fall, and swing the leg to the leg to break in two, it is very easy to use.

With such sophisticated weapons and equipment, and well-fed and warmly clothed, the morale of the officers and men of the Ning Navy is extremely high, and they have never had the opportunity to fight with Jiannu in the past, and now they can't wait to rush up and tear these Jiannu immediately!

Now that the decisive battle is finally coming, they have relaxed on the contrary, pulling family routines and family routines, driving cars, talking meat jokes that do not matter, and there is no tension at all about the coming of the big war.

Cheng Shijie chatted with the soldiers for a while, and when he saw that the soldiers were so relaxed, he was deeply satisfied, and said a few words, and then came to the forefront.

The forward position was only about a hundred paces away from Jiannu, and at this distance, countless sharpshooters and crossbowmen aimed at the opposite side, and whenever Jiannu dared to show their heads, they opened fire freely.

Cheng Shijie looked at Jiannu's defense line and frowned slightly.

This kind of trench is actually quite disgusting, it will make the side with firepower advantage, the firepower advantage can not be brought into play, although Jiannu's firepower counterattack is not as dense as the Ning Navy, but the problem is that most of them are superior archers, they don't have to show their heads behind the breastwork, they can use bows and arrows to shoot in the way, so that the attacking Ning Navy soldiers can return home.

Everyone will learn in the war, if four years ago, when the artillery of the Ning Navy was fired, Jian Nu would be very panicked, and now they seem to have become accustomed to surviving under the fire of the Ning Navy.

The Jiannu soldiers under the command of Hu Erqi shouted at Jiannu with an iron horn: "Brothers, don't struggle, Daming is stronger than you think, you can't beat Daming, you can never win this war, surrender if you're smart, surrender Daming, don't blame the past, you can eat a full meal every day...... Never worry about the cold again! ”

Although Cheng Shijie couldn't understand the Jurchen language, he also knew that this was attacking the heart, and there were many such Jurchen soldiers in the Ning Navy, who were also involved in the battle as soon as possible, and now serve as propaganda work.

Yue Tuo listened to the Jurchen words in his ears, and his teeth itched with hatred.

In these propaganda slogans of Jiannu, there is too much grain in Liaodong to be eaten, there is so much cotton in Liaodong that it can be piled up into a mountain, and the salt in Liaodong can be eaten unlimitedly, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food to eat all year round. What else is there to follow Huang Taiji to create a Ming rebellion, there is never a way out, they starve to death every day, their families follow Huang Taiji, they can only have no clothes, no food, and no profit.

If Huang Taiji, or the Aixin Jueluo family, can be tied up, Ning Haijun will have a heavy reward......

Yue Tuo looked at the Jiannu warriors around him, a little moved, and he said angrily: "Open the cannon, open the cannon!" ”

The Han army flag artillery under Yue Tuo's command received the order and immediately opened fire on those Jurchen propaganda team members at the front, and several shells flew through the trenches without causing any losses.

It can be said that the trench battle caused the artillery of both sides to be earth-shattering, but the damage caused was very small, Jiannu fired dozens of shells, and only one shell fell in the trench of the Ning Navy.

Of course, the artillery of the Ning Navy bombarded it with more than ten times the superior fire, and hundreds of shells smashed over, which only caused casualties to more than a dozen Jiannu, if Jiannu did not dig a trench and still arranged the formation as before, I am afraid that this round of shelling can kill hundreds of thousands of them.

"How?"

Cheng Shijie looked at three steam engine bulldozers with rather strange shapes, this kind of bulldozer is about the size of a fifteen-horsepower four-wheel tractor in the countryside in later generations, although the bulldozer is small, the power is also small, whether it can bulldoze the trench dug by Jiannu, Cheng Shijie has no bottom.

"Returning to the handsome, it should be possible!"

"Can such a small fire bull bulldozer bulldozer bulldoze the trenches of Jiannu?"

A technician smiled innocently and said, "Really, we've experimented!" ”

"That handsome man is going to take a good look!"

At this time, on the artillery position of the Ning Navy, the fire dragon came out of the water, that is, the rocket artillery was making final preparations, and more than 20 six-pack rocket artillery began to be fired. Half of the sky turned red, and fire dragons rose into the air, flying towards the side of the Kennu trench.

The screaming sound that makes people's scalps explode, the dazzling firelight like meteors catching the moon, not to mention the killing effect, just this sound and light effect makes people feel like their souls are scattered.

Some of the Jiannu soldiers were so frightened that they ran around, and as the rocket launchers fell to the ground and exploded, orange fireballs exploded on the Jiannu defense line, but unfortunately, the killing effect of these rockets was very limited.

Dozens of Jiannu were killed or injured by the explosion, Yue Tuo looked at the effect of the blow, and was very proud in his heart, if they had taken this approach in the Battle of Baliwan three years ago, how many fewer people would have died?

With the fall of this round of rocket artillery, the Franc machine artillery also opened fire, for a time the artillery roared, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, under the cover of artillery and rocket artillery, three fire bull bulldozers, roaring, slowly drove towards the trench of Jiannu.

Seeing that the fire bull bulldozer was getting closer and closer, Yue Tuo was anxious: "Release the arrows, release the arrows!" ”

"Woo Woo ......"

Jiannu's archers put arrows at the fire bull bulldozer, and for a while the arrows rained down, but the arrows fell on the fire bull bulldozer, and they would slide to the ground.

But the problem is that the fire ox carts of these times have a clear industrial style, especially the shell of the steam engine, all thick steel plates, there is no possibility of shooting through at all.

Some of the Han Army's torches also fired, but the result was still the same, only leaving a shallow mark on the fire bull bulldozer.

Of course, Ning Haijun's firecrackers and crossbowmen were not vegetarian, they kept staring at Jiannu, as long as Jiannu showed his head, a row of bullets flew over, and the screams continued one after another, seventy or eighty Jiannu firecrackers were shot in the face and fell down screaming.

Yue Tuo watched this scene and lost a lot.

The range of Ning's musket is more than three times that of Jiannu's arquebus, and letting Jiannu shoot at Ning's officers is similar to forcing the musketeers to commit suicide.

Soon a bulldozer came to the first trench, and the bulldozer pushed a pile of dirt into the trench, then the bulldozer retreated, and then the second bulldozer was bulldozed.

In Cheng Shijie's opinion, this bulldozer is almost like a big toy, it can only push one or two hundred catties of soil into the trench at a time, and it is pitifully slow.

The problem was that the bulldozer was filling in the first trench at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Yue Tuo hurriedly commanded: "Open the cannon, hit with artillery!" ”

The face of the gunners of the Han army flag was as constipated, although the artillery of the army was more accurate than the naval guns of the navy, but the problem was that due to the low muzzle velocity of the shells, and the solid shells could only cause damage if they hit directly, and those bulldozers were always moving.

It is very difficult to hit such a target, not to mention them, even if it is the artillery of the Ning Navy, if they do not fire flowering shells, it is very difficult to rely on ordinary live ammunition to hit a moving target.

Ke Yuetuo's order could not but be carried out, they only had to fire at the moving fire bull bulldozer, but when they opened fire, the artillery of the Ning Navy also discovered the coordinates of the Jiannu artillery position, which immediately attracted a round of overwhelming bombardment.

The worst thing is that Jiannu's luck is too bad, when the rocket artillery of the Ning Navy is bombarding the Jiannu artillery position, a rocket shell is about to hit, and the rocket shell detonates Jiannu's powder keg.

Barrels of gunpowder barrels exploded in ping-pong, and the living and dead who had no time to dodge in the future were lifted into the air together. Rao Jiannu's soldiers are all veterans of the rest of a hundred battles, and they can't help but change color in shock when they see the purgatory-like sea of fire!

In the face of the double blow of Ning's naval artillery and rocket artillery, the Jiannu soldiers had no choice but to drill into the holes they dug out to see the defense.

Just when Jiannu was hiding in the cave, the three fire bull bulldozers finally filled in a trench about ten steps wide, although it was still more than three feet deep, but the problem was that the three-foot-deep trench could no longer stop the Ning Navy officers from charging.

At this time, the Ning Navy officers took the three fire bull bulldozers as tanks, and they followed the fire bull bulldozers directly to the first breastwork, and with the three fire bull bulldozers together, they pushed down a breastwork.

Seeing the gap coming out, without waiting for Jiannu to react, more than 300 Ning Navy soldiers took out grenades, pulled the fuse, and threw more than 300 grenades towards the anti-artillery holes and trenches in the second trench of Jiannu.

Although more than 100 grenades were thrown off the trench, more than 200 grenades were thrown into the second trench of Jiannu.

Hundreds of Jiannu saw the grenades flying in the air, and they were immediately frightened, and then, before Jiannu had time to react, more than 200 grenades exploded in Jiannu's trenches, and more than 200 grenades exploded, and the strong nitrocellulose turned into light and heat.

The shrapnel of the grenade and the shock wave of the explosion spread violently, sweeping across the entire trench. No one knew what was going on in the trenches at that moment before the end came, and the Ning Navy soldiers, who were nervously watching this side, only felt a violent shock on the ground.

Then there was a thunderous roar, and the ground was struck by lightning, and the earth was torn apart, and tons of dirt and stones sprayed into the sky as if they had been swept away by the wind, and beneath them, a cloud of orange smoke rose from the ground......

Cheng Shijie looked at this scene, full of joy, a little like a war in later generations.

However, Shen Mingyu commanded the officers and men of the Ning Navy to move the flying thunder cannon forward and lay the flying thunder cannon position in front of the second breastwork that he had just occupied.

The range of the Flying Thunder Cannon is very close, and under normal circumstances it is impossible to reach the second or third trench of the Jiannu, and it is of little use for them to be able to penetrate the first trench, because there are no Jiannu soldiers in it. 、

With the sixteen flying thunder cannons laid out, the Ning Navy officer lit the fuse of the explosive cannon, and then ran back with his ears covered.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The dull sound of flying thunder cannons sounded, and sixteen packs of explosives flew towards the third Jiannu trench with Xuan'er, and each flying thunder shell was like the power of a heavy howitzer shell, especially the explosive bag that fell in the trench, and the power of the explosive cannon in the narrow trench increased dramatically.

Yue Tuo stupidly watched the smoke and fire rising twenty or thirty meters from the third trench, and felt that there might be something wrong with his perception of the world......

Yue Tuo's lips trembled slightly, and he was about to say something, when the whistling sound started again, and another round of shelling came unexpectedly.

"Master, we can't let them fight like this anymore!"

Zhepo said with a worried face: "You must destroy their three strange cars!" ”

"How?"

Yue Tuo was a little panicked.

Jepo said numbly: "Wrap ...... with explosives"

Before Jepo could finish speaking, a ball of fire rose from the trench in front of him, which was the scene of the explosion of Ning Haijun's sulfur incendiary bomb.

"It's over!"

At this time, Jiannu was already stunned.

The soldiers of Jiannu were blown out of their bodies by the overwhelming artillery fire and grenades, flying thunder cannons and incendiary bombs, and they no longer dared to hide in the anti-artillery holes, and the anti-artillery shells could not protect themselves from flying thunder shells and grenades.

The soldiers on the front line had collapsed, and Yue Tuo was also coerced by the guards to retreat.

Cheng Shijie looked at Jiannu running away, and at this time, the gunshots rang out, and the firecracker, which had an absolute range advantage, called the fleeing Jiannu one by one. (End of chapter)
