"Handsome command horse transferred half gunner plus just learn to reload the new gunner horse wall … infantry quickly transferred two thousand musketeers one thousand long gunner wall ready for battle … in the remaining musketeers continue to train new recruits …"
"In order to make those recruits adapt to the battlefield earlier, the butch army can pull them to the foot of the city wall and listen to the guns for training …"
When many traitor began to pour into that city wall to prepare for the tiger and leopard army.
Zhou Yuhong, who has arrived outside Dongcheng, gave the city rebels a Mawei blow to their defensive morale, and at the same time tested the specific power of a mortar. Zhou Yuhong directly ordered 27 heavy mortars from the artillery battalion to shell the wall of Baode County for ten rounds.
So gold pieces of custom-made flower bombs were quickly stuffed by gunners from the muzzle.
Oil paper wrapped with propellant was quickly penetrated by an iron nail from the firing hole at the tail of the barrel, and then a two-inch long matchrope was inserted into the firing hole to insert the propellant wrapped with oil paper.
In an instant, 27 heavy mortars were ready to shoot.
The battalion commander of the artillery battalion ordered one by one to risk the fire of Mars and quickly touch the matchrope at the tail of the gun barrel.
A dazzling spark quickly emerged from the ignited matchlock and quickly spread to the barrel along the matchlock …
As soon as the dazzling Mars disappeared, everyone’s field of vision was deafening. As soon as the explosion occurred, the cannon barrel sounded, and then an orange flame mixed with a lot of black smoke quickly ejected from the muzzle.
Of course, along with the flame, there was a conical mortar shell with a long tail.
Hundreds of gunners watched 27 conical mortar shells with white smoke at their tails, and the speed was visible to the naked eye, and they flew to the sky with a sharp and sharp roar.
Then I drew a beautiful arc and slammed it into the wall as if I had eyes …
Although these mortars are required to be tested many times and marked with shooting angles and scales, these mortars still have several shooting errors due to this backward production technology.
But even so, five of the 27 shells still hit the wall directly.
The delay fuse in the tail wing of the projectile is also burned out with the landing of the projectile
A pair of shocked and puzzled eyes watched the wall rebels crashing to the ground. Five shells exploded just like grenades they had ever met …
As an orange fireball rose from the impact point of the shell and was blown apart, the shell fragments quickly formed a fairly dense steel storm and swept away by the rebels who were still in a daze around …
The shells exploded directly, and clouds of blood and fog were blown up among the rebels. At the same time, the wall full of rebels also hit the center, and there were five huge gaps in Fiona Fang.
In the gap, the traitor has either turned into a corpse or fallen to the wall, giving out heartbreaking screams.
Chapter three hundred Defense flowering bombs
Until this moment, the rebel guarding the city wall still hasn’t reacted from the shock.
Because at this time, they have too many questions to solve.
What tiger and leopard army equipped with artillery has such a long range … What tiger and leopard army artillery fired shells from the sky … What tiger and leopard army fired shells at themselves is a flowering bomb …
There are many traitors, and they are stunned. When they are at a loss, 27 heavy mortars from the artillery camp have fired a new round of shells, which have already appeared on their heads.
The shells roared to the ground and exploded one after another …
In a blink of an eye, hundreds of traitors fell into a pool of blood with desperate expressions before they died.
At this time, the rebels left in the city wall finally stopped being indifferent, but gave out a little bit of horror and started to run around the city wall to avoid the attack from the flower bombs overhead.
However, what makes them feel desperate is that they think it is a very effective means of escape. A shell fragment is the main means of killing the enemy. Instead of mortar, it increases their losses.
When the Tiger and Leopard Army fired ten rounds of artillery shells, hundreds of battles were fought in front of the tribal walls, and almost 700 of them fell into various postures, more than being blown off limbs and limbs without corpses.
Rebel coach Wu Jing Tian Gang had no sooner answered the yamen than he had to rush to the city gate again because the wall kept ringing off the gun.
When they climbed the city wall, the roaring gun was over.
Show them in front of them, except for the bodies everywhere, with flashing eyes and even frightened faces …
I couldn’t help but gasp at the strategist and the artillery commander behind me and exclaimed, "What is this artillery that has such great power … and it has brought us such great casualties in such a short time …"
Wu Jingtian questioned the artillery commander and rushed directly to the wall of corpses everywhere, then grabbed several musketeers who were still shaking and shouted, "Tell me what happened here just now and what killed so many brothers. Tell me what you saw, Ma …"
Several guns were full of trembling answers, and the artillery commander finally figured out the mortar base situation.
After taking a deep breath, he reported to Wu Jingtian, "Marshal … Although he doesn’t want to admit it, the power of this new artillery of loyalist has far exceeded our artillery …"
"According to the end, it will be understood that this kind of artillery can March and shoot, that is, it will hit us … Second, the range of this kind of artillery far exceeds ours … Third, the shells fired by this kind of artillery are flowering shells rather than solid shells."
"This kind of artillery attack is absolutely inevitable if we don’t have the necessary defense means to lose so many troops at one time …"
Although Wu Jingtian was full of anger in his heart, he still saw a glimmer of hope from the artillery commander’s answer.
As soon as the artillery commander finished Wu Jingtian, he asked eagerly with a full face, "defense means. Do you mean that we can defend against the new artillery of the Tiger and Leopard Army …"
The artillery commander nodded his head and answered,’ It’s a guard … to reduce the loss of brothers by defensive means and reduce it by 50% … "
At the end of the "will just see a dead brother’s body … their death base is caused by shell fragments, so that we can avoid the fragments produced by the explosion of shells. A little farther away from the impact point of shells, brothers can avoid the bullet attack …"
"This defense is the most basic way to lie prone … butch army artillery units began to attack us after brothers lie prone can reduce losses to a minimum …"
At this time, a musketeer commander suddenly said, "The guard must never lie on the ground …"
"If you want to stop the butch army outside the city from approaching the wall, we musketeers must continuously shoot lead bullets … but once the brothers lie prone, they will reload the musketeers and there will be no way to shoot lead bullets …"
"When the time comes, even if we avoid the attack of the butch army’s flowering bullets and are not blocked by lead bullets, the butch army will easily rush to the corner of the city to explode explosives. We will stick to the wall and blow up a siege gap …"
I heard that Wu Jingtian’s face just swelled up, hoping to be replaced by anger again, regardless of his status as a guard, and shouted with a full face of anger
"This also not line that also not line … don’t we just watch people brothers die in the flower bomb explosion …"
At this time there has been no talk strategist said
"Master Shuai, here is a way to stop the fragments produced by the explosion of a flowering bomb."
Wu Jingtian seemed to suddenly seize a lifeline and eagerly asked the strategist, "What is the way for the strategist …"
"Wall …" A pair of puzzled eyes looked at the strategist and replied …
"Students have just seen a flower bomb. Although it is very powerful, it is not big enough to blow up the battlements. The fragments generated by the explosion of the flower bomb are embedded in battlements …"
"Since the flower bombs can’t blast the battlements, let’s separate the battlements without obstacles bit by bit …-Of course, the battlements don’t need to be too high, just two feet, but they must be dense …"
"Tiger and leopard troops shot and blossomed and bounced off these battlements, and then they killed the brothers who were located in this battlements at most, and they would lose their power because of the blocking of these low walls around them …"
"Good idea …" Others don’t say that they have a certain understanding of flowering bombs, but the artillery commander is a little transparent.
