The soldiers of the baggage regiment used small carts to push the barrels of the loaded nine-shot door guns to the front.
A bundle of ten gun barrels was placed vertically at the feet of each soldier.
Once a fight breaks out, the soldiers in front can just fire their guns and don't have to reload them. The soldiers at the back would reload them.
The war was about to begin, and the bugle sounded. This sound was a warning that no one else was allowed to come out.
As soon as the Mongols rush up, they will move forward and shoot at the same time. Arrows were flying everywhere, and there was no cover in the camp. It would be bad if he was shot by a stray arrow.
There are many tents set up in the camp area.
These tents were ordered in Hyundai and are specially made.
A layer of stab-proof fabric and fire-proof fabric is added to the outside of the canvas, so it is not afraid of bows and arrows being thrown, nor is it afraid of rockets setting fire.
So, for those who are fine, it is very safe to hide in the tent. Food, materials, livestock, and fodder are also very safe.
The Mongols rushed forward with a lot of noise and chaos. The weapons in his hands are also various. Some were armed with scimitars, while others were armed with spears of varying lengths. There are even ones holding five-strand forks.
Yang Fan was scratching his head as he looked at it. Isn't this a production tool for inserting straw bales? Were the Mongols already so impoverished under the Ming Dynasty's long-term blockade?
Different tribes can only be roughly divided into different tribes. They gathered together in groups and rushed over together, shouting and screaming, without any formation or coordination.
Yang Fan curled his lips when he saw it, a ragtag group of people.
I also sighed in my heart that Taizu and Chengzu had completely brought them back to their original form. The national army of Genghis Khan has long since ceased to exist.
At that time, Genghis Khan broke down the tribal barriers. With Qianhu as the basic unit, Qianhu is only responsible to the Khan.
In order to show loyalty to the Great Khan, Qianhu must send his most outstanding son to the Great Khan to join the Qixue Army.
The Qixue Army is the Imperial Guard of the Great Khan and the most elite army in Mongolia. They are responsible for protecting the Great Khan, and they are also the hostages of the thousands of households under the Khan's control.
At that time, the Mongolian army had unified military and political orders, extremely high combat efficiency, and exploded with astonishing combat effectiveness.
Now on the grasslands, wherever there is a national army, they are all private armed forces. The people are all attached to their respective lords and are just trying to survive.
Lin Danhan, the last emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, was just a larger tribe named Nayan.
The entire camp was silent.
The Mongols were a little strange. They were about to rush under the wall, but why didn't these Han people react at all?
They wouldn't be all frightened.
Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters.
boom! A cannon shot came from the top of the mountain. This is the clarion call to attack, the signal to fire.
The cannon at Yang Fan's feet was the signal for the release of the highest order.
The officers on the watchtower immediately stood up and blew their whistles.
beep! beep! beep!
The militiamen squatting on the scaffolding immediately stood up and pointed their guns outward.
They saw, thirty meters away, secretive Mongolians, wearing tattered leather robes, carrying simple ladders, rushing towards them with ferocious faces.
"Fire!" Officers at all levels shouted one after another.
Thirty meters is the maximum effective killing range of the fire door gun. Although this distance is not accurate and cannot hit where it is, it is lethal enough and can penetrate ordinary iron armor without any problem.
The Mongols are too dense. Accuracy is not necessary at this time. As long as they are fired without hitting the sky or the ground, they can basically hit an unlucky person.
Because, the current fire door gun has been improved.
The propellant is made more sophisticated, and the barrel is forged by an open-hearth molten steel hammer. It solves the problems of the past. The barrel is very thin, but the performance is stronger. It reduces the weight and lengthens the barrel, increasing the first muzzle velocity.
These gun barrels are wrapped in steel rods while the steel bars are red and soft, and are continuously beaten with water hammers to squeeze out bubbles and cracks. They are then repeatedly quenched and cooled to increase the hardness of the gun bore and the toughness of the barrel. The high-precision inner tube is made from the bore, and finally drilled with hydraulic machinery.
Originally, Yang Fan wanted to eliminate the fire portal gun, but considering the close range combat, this repeating gun still had great value, so it was retained as the standard equipment for the second-line troops.
Lead bullets are now armor-piercing bullets made of soft lead wrapped with steel balls. They are all punched out and have very standard spheres, which increases accuracy.
The soldiers on the wall immediately grabbed their portal guns and started shooting. The soldiers under the wall also extended their guns from the half-foot-square shooting opening.
After the soldiers on the wall prepared to shoot one barrel, they replaced the barrel with a gap and fired the second round. In order to ensure continuous fire power output during the stroke.
There were also two soldiers lying under the chassis of the carriage.
They were also shooting with portal guns.
This is to prevent enemies from getting in under the car. Two soldiers must be placed here.
At this moment, on the hills in the distance, Mang Gurtai, Khan Ahai, Buyan Ahai, Du Lengguying, Wandan Weizheng and others all saw the blue Checheng strange car in the distance. become protruding.
Suddenly there was a gunshot.
Immediately afterwards, flames and gunpowder smoke spewed out from three walls, the upper and lower floors.
For a time, intensive musket fire almost illuminated the entire wall, and the smoke spread quickly, almost wrapping the city wall.
The Mongolian infantry who had rushed within thirty meters of the wall fell forward like felled wheat. Those at the back were pushed by those further back and continued to move forward. Then he fell down in the next round of shooting.
The militiamen fired first, second, and third times, and they fired roughly at one person.
However, there is no need to aim after that, because the repeater fires quickly, and maroon gunpowder is also a type of black gunpowder. Although it burns evenly, there is not a lot of smoke at all.
After the smoke started to rise, the visibility in front quickly decreased, and soon it was completely white and nothing could be seen. There are no clouds in the grassland today, which is a rare good weather.
However, there was no wind, and the smoke from the gunpowder could not be quickly blown away by the strong wind on the grassland.
The militiamen could not see the Mongols below, but they knew that they were all Mongols below, and their usual mechanical training worked. Regardless of the situation below, they just kept firing, and soon the barrel was empty.
Those charging below were all tribal herdsmen.
Mongolian tribes have large tribes with small tribes under them, and small tribes with grassroots tribes under them. These grassroots tribes are about the same size as the tribe An Sanxi and his friends first came to the grassland and conquered.
Because nomads must be dispersed on the grassland, because a piece of grassland cannot support too many people.
Na Yan and his tribe, ranging from over a hundred to as few as seventy or eighty strong men, rushed forward in groups and were quickly knocked to the ground by muskets.
Na Yan, a member of a small tribe, saw dozens of people from his tribe falling down one by one under gunfire, and his eyes were red.
