He yelled and asked his subordinates to rush forward. He knew that it was difficult to load the musket. After firing a shot, it would take a long time to load. He must take advantage of this opportunity to rush forward.
But what made him dumbfounded was that the muskets he was looking at were firing one after another without stopping at all.
In one breath, nine shots were fired, and he was counting them.
After nine shots, more than fifty of his tribe fell.
The muskets on the wall finally stopped.
He just breathed a sigh of relief. Get ready for everyone to speed up the charge.
The sound of muskets suddenly sounded again from the steel plate under the wall.
Visible to the naked eye, a continuous line of fire flashed past from left to right.
Then, the line of fire flashed again every second or so.
Then there were nine more shots, and the line of fire flashed nine times in a row.
Thick gunpowder smoke came overwhelmingly, making people cough and make their eyes very uncomfortable. There are a lot of irritating substances in gunpowder smoke.
The militiamen inside the Checheng were okay. After all, they fired from the shooting port, and the smoke was sprayed out. The Mongolians outside were very uncomfortable.
The militiamen on the city wall were shooting down, but this time the militiamen on the lower level were shooting flatly.
At this time, the Mongols had already rushed within ten meters, and the power and accuracy of the fire door gun within ten meters were perfect.
The steel-cored lead bullet, driven by high-quality propellant, directly penetrated the unarmored tribal conscript in front, and then penetrated another person's body again.
The Mongolians who had just stepped over the corpses lying on the pillows in front of them.
They fell forward piece by piece again.
Nine rounds later, corpses once again covered the road.
Starting from a distance of thirty meters, the corpses were piled on top of each other, and the blood flowed into a stream.
The muskets below the city had just stopped, and the muskets on the wall fired again.
Because this short period of time was enough for the soldiers to replace the new barrels.
They threw the dismantled barrel directly under the wall, then picked up a new barrel from the floor, loaded it quickly, and fired.
They didn't even have to worry about the empty barrel, someone would pick it up naturally.
They took it down to cool down and then reloaded it.
They all wore thick gloves to prevent their hands from being burned by the barrel.
There is a bundle of assembled gun barrels below, use them as you like. You can directly replace the barrel without worrying about the barrel overheating and replace it with a new one after shooting.
These measures ensure the continuity of firepower. This is much more intensive than three-stage attacks.
Such dense emission produces astonishing smoke. Is there any wind today? The smoke lingers.
Khan Ahai could no longer see clearly the car city in front of him.
Because the entire battlefield was filled with smoke, he could only see the front of his siege troops hidden in the smoke, and the entire outer wall of the Checheng was also in the smoke.
The sound of muskets was like popping beans, dense and continuous.
He suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
With such a dense concentration of muskets, how many people are there on the other side? The details say that there are 18,000 troops and 10,000 civilians, but they don’t look alike.
If the other party was really a fire gate gun, how could it have such intensive firepower.
"Immediately use your big bow to throw it to support the warriors in front."
Khan Ahai has been cautious all his life. He felt that it was difficult to see the situation ahead due to the smoke, so it was better to play it safe and use a big bow to provide support.
Most of the large bows of the Mongols were made of mulberry elm wood and attached with yellow ox or goat horns.
The arrow clusters are large and broad, 2 to 4 inches (6 to 12 cm) long, and they belong to large bows and heavy arrows.
Each tribe in Mongolia has a training ground, called "Toubulu", used for daily practice.
During competitions, the Mongolian archers drew the most people with their sixteen-point bows (one point of force equals eight kilograms today), but in battle, the ten-point bows were used the most. After all, you have to shoot continuously, not just a few arrows in a competition.
As for the ultimate 24-point bow, basically few people can use it.
There is a title among the Mongols called "Hero of the World", which is used to describe a powerful warrior who can use twenty-four points of force.
An Sanxi is a hero with twenty-four powers.
The big bow covers the shot and has huge destructive power. It is extremely lethal to enemies without armor, or those wearing chain or piercing armor.
However, there are not many Mongolians with such heavy archers, and such large bows cannot be used immediately and must be used on foot.
Now that Mongolia has declined, the number of heavy archers who can use ten-pound bows has dropped a lot. On the contrary, there are more special archers who can use eighty-pound heavy bows and arrows on the Jiannu side.
A pulling force of nearly a hundred pounds is not something ordinary people can handle. The Ming border army was half of this standard.
Although the Mongols in front suffered heavy casualties, they could not be seen behind due to the smoke.
Since he couldn't see the tragic scene of blood flowing in front of him, there was no fear.
They continued to charge forward under the surging crowds further behind.
The great Mongolian archers bent their bows and nocked arrows, and began to shoot at the militiamen on the city wall.
Because the number of great archers was limited, this time multiple tribes gathered together to barely make up 5,000 people.
In order to have a better effect, Khan Ahai gathered them all outside the city wall on the north side.
Following the orders from the Mongolian officers, a large number of archers fired arrows intensively.
The heavy arrow flew into the sky with a unique whistling sound.
Yang Fan saw it immediately. The big archers behind the Mongols were gathering and moving forward.
They all carry bows that are much larger than ordinary riding bows.
This was the first time Yang Fan saw the true appearance of a Mongolian bow.
These bows are very beautifully made. Under the telescope, the large gold-painted bows shine brightly in the strong sunlight of the Mongolian Plateau.
Yang Fan suddenly remembered that Mr. Guan had said before that he liked archery and asked him to help him keep an eye out for any good-quality ancient bows and arrows and help him get a set.
Archery can relieve stress. No matter how irritable you are, as long as you shoot dozens of arrows, your mood will improve.
Moreover, archery can exercise the function of chest and lungs. The author has tried it and it works really well. The British poet Byron also said that archery is good for the kidneys.
This could not be confirmed. The kidneys are good! That man doesn't need it.
After this battle, it is estimated that many exquisite Mongolian bows and arrows were captured.
At that time, you can use it to give gifts to the bosses.
Archery is more popular now, and many big shots like to sign up for an archery club.
"Sir, these are Mongolian archers, and their heavy arrows are very powerful." Lin Yueru reminded.
"It's okay, don't worry. In addition to the fire musket, you also need a flintlock gun or a bird musket. Otherwise, the arrows fired by the bow string will not be able to penetrate the aluminum alloy plate armor." Old God Yang Fan said thoughtfully.
Unfortunately, as soon as Yang Fan finished speaking, he was slapped in the face.
There was a snapping sound.
The roaring heavy arrows swooped down, and some of them screamed. The whistling sound of five thousand heavy arrows was very scary.
Then dense arrows fell on the north wall.
Because the sidecar had a wood-clad steel outer shell, these heavy arrows simply bounced away.
But among the two hundred sidecars, the militia on the city wall were not so lucky.
The heavy arrows landed directly on their aluminum alloy plate armor.
The plate armor was very reliable, not a single metal plate was penetrated, but the huge kinetic energy knocked them off the wall and fell backwards.
At least three to four hundred people fell from the wall. A piece of plate armor falling from a height of 1.8 meters was enough for them.
After all, the two-layer steel pipe scaffolding on the wall was covered with steel plates. The width was only a little more than a foot, barely enough to stand. This time, many people were caught off guard, and many people were brought down by the huge kinetic energy of the heavy arrows.
Yang Fan was dumbfounded, it could still be like this.
