Duoji was picking up the dry planks of the city wall and looked at the man carrying the strange pipe diagonally on his shoulders in a strange way. What is this stuff. Why is it so strange.
At this time, he saw the man move.
He adjusted a raised steel piece on the pipe, as if adjusting the angle between the steel pipe and his shoulder. Then he used his finger to pull the trigger underneath the tube.
With a bang, the flintlock machine fired.
The hammer struck the flint, sending out a series of sparks. The medicine pool was ignited, and then there was a loud bang, and the nozzle at the back of the pipe spurted out flames and thick smoke.
Duoji saw a spindle-shaped warhead flying up driven by the flames. With a column of smoke behind it, it flew into the sky.
At this time, the defenders of a baggage camp not far away discovered Dorje. Immediately he struck with the ax of his Swiss halberd.
When Duoji heard the wind, he immediately let go and slid down the city wall.
The city wall was only three meters high, and he used his armpits to hold it up, so he was not injured when he fell.
The ax struck the steel plate, emitting a long spark.
Dorje was lying on the ground and saw the black smoke of the continuous fire door gun coming out of the shooting port above him again. He didn't dare to get up because he would be hit if he stood up.
At this time, a large number of Mongolians continued to attack and fought desperately with the soldiers from the supply camp on the city. For the time being, no one noticed Dorje lying under the steel plate.
At this time, the attacking Mongols saw a sight they had never seen in their lives.
Pillars of smoke flew in.
The speed alone is much slower than that of a cannonball, because the trajectory is clearly visible to the naked eye.
A small black dot flew in a parabola, dragging a trail of smoke.
Soon, the sky was filled with black spots like this, trailing across the sky.
These grenades are imitations of the Panzerfaust from World War II, and their propellant is thirty grams of black powder.
The grenades are all custom-installed, with the projectile in the front and the powder bag in the back. It is installed in a sealed bamboo tube. These bamboo tubes are arranged in a row of five, tied with wires, and carried on the back.
When in use, open the cover, take out the ammunition sealed with oil paper, remove the packaging, screw on the fuse, and then load the launch tube from the front muzzle.
At present, in terms of ammunition types, Yang Fan has only developed a high-explosive grenade. Other types of ammunition are still under research.
For example, flares used for night combat lighting. A small parachute is added to this, and materials such as aluminum powder and magnesium powder that glow violently after burning are added to the projectile body.
If aluminum powder and white phosphorus are added, it can be made into incendiary bombs and used to set fire to enemy camps and forage. Daming has a lot of phosphate rock, which can also be developed.
High-explosive grenade, with a maximum direct range of 60 meters.
Because beyond sixty meters, the accuracy of direct shooting will drop off a cliff.
The greatest value of weapons such as rocket launchers lies in direct fire. As an individual soldier, he can carry heavy firepower on his back. It is simply an infantry cannon.
On the route of the infantry attack, direct fire can destroy many targets that cannot be destroyed by rifles. For example, Jiannu's shield car.
In the future, when Jiannu pushes a shield cart to fight Yang Fan's infantry, he can directly destroy them with direct-fire grenades.
The projectile method can make up for the blank area beyond the grenade projection distance and within the artillery range. So that the firepower projection does not cover the area.
The enemy's attack routes, from far to near, are all under fire.
At present, when launched by projectile method, the maximum range of gunpowder-propelled grenades exceeds 130 meters.
Today, the Mongols have suffered too many new weapons.
At this time, as soon as these strange grenades flew out, they immediately caused panic.
They don't know what this is.
From copper-fired weapons, to hand grenades, to hand-cranked Gatling guns, they suffered from too many new weapons.
They didn't stay stunned for long, and soon, grenades landed one after another.
A spindle-shaped projectile, with a long needle extending out from the front end of the projectile.
When landing, due to the shape design and center of gravity design of the grenade, the long needle will inevitably land first.
After the long needle touches the ground, it presses the spring in the ignition tube, pulls the copper wire repeatedly, and rubs the sulfur and glass powder, causing a fire.
Then ignited the 600 grams of fertilizer explosives in the bomb.
Six hundred grams of chemical fertilizer explosive is equivalent to the power of 360 grams of TNT. Coupled with the layer of steel balls and iron filings, the lethality is amazing.
After all, the Type 67 wooden handle grenade contains only 38 grams of explosives.
This grenade is equivalent to ten grenades.
There was a loud bang and a dazzling white light flashed. Then shrapnel and steel balls swept around like a violent storm.
At this time, from the high ground in the center of the camp, one grenade after another drew a parabola and hit the heavy Mongolian troops.
In the crowded attacking team, countless orange-red fireballs and white lights lit up, accompanied by deafening explosions, and the rain of steel destroyed everything around them.
Countless Mongolians were blown to pieces, with limbs and flesh flying everywhere. Every time a grenade hit the ground, the explosion quickly cleared a large area around it.
In addition to the debris of waste in the sky, there is a huge crater on the ground.
Within the killing radius, the people in the center were blown to pieces, the people in the middle were killed by the shock wave, and the outside was swept away by shrapnel and prefabricated steel balls.
Starting from outside the city wall in Beicheng, the explosion gradually extended backwards as gunpowder-propelled grenades were fired. Countless fireballs rose into the sky.
The heavy Mongolian troops were covered by explosions from front to back.
For a time, gunpowder smoke filled the air, dust flew up, and the sound of explosions shocked people. Their ears bleed and they lost their hearing. The terrain in this area is sandy with small rocks and pebbles.
The rubble blown up by the explosion increased its lethality. Each grenade dropped to the ground was enough to blow up half a centurion. Even those who were not injured were shaken to the point of confusion, their brains shut down, and their eyes were confused and confused.
The Mongols were frightened by the violent explosion.
This is not the ricochet strike of a solid ball or the sweep of a shotgun at close range.
This is an explosive bomb! Flower bomb!
In this era, explosive bombs and explosive bombs had not yet appeared on the battlefield.
(In recent years, some archaeological discoveries have unearthed physical objects of softwood and fuse-delayed blooming bombs from the mid-Ming Dynasty. According to analysis of the physical objects, the explosive power is very small and of little practical value. However, there are no records of the use of nine sides in combat in history books. It is clear that the experimental product is still a real weapon. It is clearly recorded in history books that the most recent battlefield record of explosive shells is the Battle of Baliqiao. Senggelinqin fought against the British and French forces. The British Armstrong breech-loading gun used explosive shells. The shell exploded , there are sixty-four pieces of shrapnel.)
Among the Mongolian crowd, one after another, blazing fireballs rose into the sky. There were pieces of blown-up limbs flying everywhere.
The Mongol attack was completely crushed.
Everyone was running around like headless flies. They didn't know how to avoid this terrible weapon.
The formation was completely in disarray, and there were soldiers running away everywhere.
Yang Fan put down his telescope and said, "Open the north wall and let the infantry attack!"
