It was not for nothing that Lao Zhang Fei had rebelled all these years. He rebelled with the Non-stick Uprising in the first year of Chongzhen. He has been in the military for more than three years now. While fighting against officers and soldiers and militia groups from various places, he also accumulated a lot of experience. Rich combat experience.
He is now very aware of the power of weapons such as the three-eyed gun and the bird gun.
The hit rate of these fire guns is extremely low, and their power is not high. At a distance of thirty feet, it is basically impossible to penetrate an inch-thick wooden board.
Of course, the closer the distance, the greater the ability of lead bullets to penetrate wood.
At a distance of more than ten feet, there is a risk of the one-inch-thick board being penetrated.
So, he asked the gangsters to make this one-and-a-half-inch-thick plank.
Its thickness is equivalent to a thick and large cutting board. It is very heavy. It is basically impossible to hold it with one hand. It must be supported by both hands. The bottom edge of the board is pressed against the ground and it is slowly pushed forward. Even if it is within ten feet, , the three-eyed blunderbuss and the bird blunderbuss cannot penetrate this thick wooden board.
The gangsters can rely on this kind of plank to get close enough to the enemy.
As long as they get closer to four or five feet away, the thieves can throw away the wooden planks and rush to the wooden wall of the village with a single step.
The wall of this village is very thin. It is a single layer. No one can stand on the wall, so there will be no one stationed on the wall. The thieves can easily climb up. As long as the wall is broken, our side with the numerical advantage will You will win.
"Don't talk nonsense to the people in the village and attack directly." Old Zhang Fei waved his hand: "We are in a hurry and must raze this village to the ground before Xing Honglang comes back."
The army of thieves and bandits only adjusted their formation slightly at a distance of two arrows, and then began to press towards the stockade. The bandits at the front raised the thick wooden boards and pushed them forward slowly with difficulty.
As soon as they advanced, the people in the village were frightened.
A large group of people who came from Pujiu Temple began to cry. The old and weak women and children huddled in a ball, shivering, and the young and strong men were sweating profusely and tightened the farm tools in their hands.
But I heard Old Nanfeng laughing loudly on the high archery tower: "Don't climb on the wall to watch if you are a coward, just hide in the cabin. If you don't watch, you won't be afraid."
"If you don't look at it, you'll be even more scared."
There are only three archery towers. Now there are many archers crowded on the three archery towers. However, the space of the archery towers is limited. The total number of archers on them is only twenty. They took out their Kaiyuan bows and estimated the distance.
It was enough, so he shot at the bandits below.
The bows and arrows shot from a high position can easily pass over the wooden board held by the front of the bandits and fall on the heads of the bandits behind.
But the thieves were also prepared. The people behind did not have thick wooden boards to use, but they had leather shields, wooden shields, pot lids and other items. It was quite easy to hold these things up and block the few arrows shot from the archery tower. .
There were a few impatient thieves who drew their bows and fired back at the archery tower. However, if they shot from a low point to a high point, the range would be significantly lower. The bows they used were not as good as the Kaiyuan bows of the Gao family villagers group. Those arrows Halfway through the flight, it fell softly and hit the wall of the village, making a "tuk-tuk" sound.
The fire gunners behind the wall assessed the distance and couldn't bear it any longer. They wanted to take action. Many of them opened the covers blocking the shooting holes and looked out frequently.
But Lao Nanfeng shouted loudly: "Stand still, the fire gun soldiers. At this distance, we can't penetrate their thick shields. Don't waste bullets easily."
The fire gun soldiers had no choice but to hold on forcibly.
The thieves continued to move forward, walking very easily. It didn't take long for them to reach a distance of twenty feet...
At this distance, there were still only a few sparse arrows flying from the opposite side, which really made them feel happy. Old Zhang Fei couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, Xing Honglang is not here, all the remaining soldiers in this village are Trash, they don’t know how to fight at all. We have already approached this distance, and they don’t even dare to fire a shot. Guys, cheer up, the food in the village will soon be ours.
At this moment, Old Nanfeng said to the archers on the archery tower: "Go down, it's time to replace them."
The archers nodded and quickly retreated from the archery tower. Then Gao Chuwu climbed up with twenty grenadiers.
The fifth grade of high school: "This distance is almost there! We have entered the range of the grenadiers."
Old Nanfeng chuckled: "Yes! Beacon tower, light the fire."
In the middle of the village, a fire that had been prepared long ago was lit, and a thick black smoke rose into the sky...
On the northern river, the captain of the warship, who had been waiting for a long time, was immediately overjoyed: "The warship set off and returned to Gudu Wharf."
Old Nanfeng chuckled: "General Gao, I am leading the cavalry battalion to fight out. It's up to you here."
Gao Chuwu grinned: "I can fight the rest."
"good!"
Old Nanfeng also quickly climbed down from the archery tower, turned over and mounted a war horse, and ran to the side gate of the stockade. Here, more than two hundred cavalrymen had been waiting for a long time. Old Nanfeng stood with his horse and spear raised. He stood in front of the cavalry and said with a smile: "Don't panic, let General Gao fight for a while first."
The first one to take action was, of course, the fifth grade student in high school.
He is the man in the Gaojiacun grenade camp who can throw grenades the farthest. When his brute force breaks out, he can throw a grenade almost 80 meters away.
But ordinary grenadiers are far inferior to Gao Chuwu, and most of them can only throw them to about twenty feet.
That's why Old Nanfeng waited until the rebel army entered twenty feet before he replaced all the archers on the archery tower with grenadiers.
This throw in the fifth grade of high school...
The twenty grenadiers who had climbed up to the arrow tower lit the match ropes together.
"Wow, the top of the arrow tower is too narrow. I don't have any space to run. I can't throw far."
"Then it should at least be thrown seventeen or eighty feet, right?"
"Fuck, the match rope is lit. If you don't want to throw it, you have to throw it away."
"Throw it away quickly, or you'll blow yourself up."
There was a burst of laughter and curses from the small archery tower, and twenty matchlock grenades flew out together with the grenades thrown by Gao Chuwu.
At this time, the thieves were advancing very happily...
The carefully guarded firecrackers did not fire, and the private salt dealers were trembling in the stockade. They felt that they had already won.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a bunch of black balls fell from the sky and landed behind the wooden wall.
The gangsters who were not very smart turned their heads and glanced at the black balls on the ground. While they were still thinking "What is this?", the match ropes on the black balls just burned out, and "boom" With a sound, the black ball exploded.
The shrapnel, which was difficult to detect with the naked eye, instantly knocked all the gangsters in the surrounding area to the ground.
Some people didn't even have time to scream before they died.
The thieves holding thick wooden boards couldn't help but stagger around, and the wooden wall was instantly in chaos.
When the gun soldiers saw this scene, they didn't even have to wait for orders. They opened the cover, stretched out the gun from the shooting hole, pointed it at the rebels, and fired!
