With the dense volley of flintlocks, everyone fired after aiming because the distance was very close. If the musket is inaccurate, it is inaccurate at a distance of more than 100 meters. At a distance of more than ten meters, it is impossible to miss.
Puff puff! The dovetail cards in the front row were shot one after another.
Because this kind of shield is very high, it can completely block an entire person. However, the huge penetrating power of steel core bullets can penetrate even three millimeter steel plates. These light woods are simply the same as those in Zhihu, penetrating directly.
Flowers of blood burst out from behind the shield, and the shield hand was directly hit by a steel-core bullet. In front of such a powerful bullet, he couldn't even scream, and was knocked backwards by the huge kinetic energy.
The three-eyed gunman behind was completely exposed. The front row suddenly suffered a large number of casualties, and twenty people fell to the ground in this round of firing.
Baiyin saw the opportunity quickly and immediately shouted, "Charge over and chop the fire gunner to death."
At this time, the rifleman needs to reload, although reloading the ammunition is much faster than the three-eyed gun. The three-eyed musket takes one minute to load, while the flintlock gun takes less than ten seconds.
However, the opponent still had three-eyed muskets loaded with ammunition, and the two rows of waiting soldiers did not fire. They reacted from panic and were ready to fire. This pair of unprotected, reloading fusiliers would inflict huge losses.
At this time, you must rush over and kill the remaining fire gunners. Buy time to reload your flintlock.
The entire team lying on the ground immediately jumped up. He rushed forward with his cavalry sword and Mongolian scimitar. They slashed at the swallow-tailed player and the three-eyed gunslinger who were in panic and turned upside down after being hit by a round of bullets.
Entering the fight at this time, the combat effectiveness advantage of the Mongolian and Han soldiers trained by Yang Fan was immediately vividly reflected.
The three-eyed gunmen on the opposite side were already dead and injured, and these people were all incompetent in fighting skills, so they were assigned to be fire gunmen. Anyone who can fight will become a cold weapon soldier.
In this era, soldiers were generally deployed in this way. This was true for Jiannu, and so was the Ming Dynasty. Because firearms do not require high physical fitness and fighting ability, as long as you can use them skillfully.
Su He, Tada, and Akela took the lead and quickly rushed into the front row among the guard soldiers and the three-eyed gunslinger. He picked up his saber and Mongolian scimitar and began to kill the enemy.
Su He was from Changli, North Zhili, and his sword skills were passed down from his family. After he joined the team, he switched to the cavalry sword issued by his superiors.
Su He struck a three-eyed gunman in the face with his knife, cutting three inches into his face.
Su He kicked him in the chest and pulled out the knife.
He dodged the blow from another three-eyed gunman and chopped off one of his arms with his backhand. He rolled to the ground in pain.
Su He loves this cavalry sword to death.
Not only the steel mouth, it will not break no matter how you cut it. And the center of gravity is very convenient, and it is indescribably comfortable to hold it in your hand. Better than any knife he had ever used.
On the contrary, the family heirloom sword he brought with him is no longer used much.
Tada and Akela were also good at using Mongolian knives. The three of them rushed at the front, waving their dazzling swords, slashing and banging, and rushed all the way. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people were hacked to death.
Seeing how brave the three of them were, the whole team's morale was greatly boosted and they shouted in unison to kill. The whole team quickly followed behind. For a moment, the sword was shining brightly, and flesh, flesh and limbs were flying everywhere. The entire city wall became a Shura battlefield.
The more than a hundred guardsmen and sixty gunmen who were in front were cut down one after another. In front of the first team, there is almost no one-stop enemy.
These soldiers didn't even look at the enemy's weapons and only focused on killing them. Because they know that there is no need to block, just slash directly.
Because stab-proof clothing will block the opponent's cold weapons, spears and daggers cannot penetrate, let alone these slashing weapons. If it was a firearm, the anti-stab suit couldn't stop it, and it was impossible to block it. So I just ignored it and let go.
Heiyunlong's soldiers were dumbfounded. These people had a desperate fighting style. They only attacked without defense and slashed all the way. Go directly to the neck and other vital points.
Heiyunlong shouted: "Hold them off and don't let them escape. Everyone rush up, and those who retreat will be shot to death."
Seeing that the guardsmen in front were about to collapse again, he could only ask his servants to increase their intensity in supervising the battle.
At this time, apart from his two sons, there were only more than fifty servants left around him.
Seeing how capable these people were in fighting, Heiyunlong saw that in front of him there were more than a hundred guardsmen, more than sixty gunmen, and more than thirty spearmen and servants supervising the battle, and he was about to be unable to withstand them.
He winked at his two sons. The father and son retreated unnoticed under the protection of a dozen trusted servants.
"The northern city wall cannot be defended. We cannot send all our capital here. Let's retreat back to Wenchang Tower, where the platform is high and strong, and there is also a squatting tiger cannon. I left enough weapons and ammunition there, as well as food and Shuijing, let's retreat and hold on." Hei Yunlong said softly.

"Dad, what will happen if the Mongols invade?" Hei Mingxiao asked anxiously.
"Bah, it doesn't matter whether those profiteers live or die, isn't it enough for our brothers to be wronged by them in this fortress? They have 20,000 strong men in this city, let them find their own way. Five hundred of us have died. Could it be that we are still lighting here?" Hei Minglian scolded.
Seeing his father nodding, Hei Minglian shouted, "Retreat, retreat back to Wenchang Pavilion."
I couldn't bear it from the front. Half of the 200 people had been killed, and the remaining 100 people seemed to have been granted amnesty. They saw that the Hei family father and son had run away with more than 60 servants and soldiers. He immediately turned around and ran away.
They had long wanted to escape. At this time, I hated my parents for losing two legs. He threw away his shield, three-eyed musket, sword and gun, lest he could not run fast.
Didn't you see that the three fathers and sons of Hei Shou ran down the horse track?
Watching the defenders collapse and run away. The two teams immediately gave chase, but were stopped at the corner of the city wall.
Here is the corner where the north wall turns to the west wall. There is a turret. Below is the sloping horse trail that goes up and down the city wall.
Squadron leader Luo Fugui arrived. With another squad from their squadron. Just climbed up the ladder.
"Stop the pursuit immediately, move all the dead bodies over, and build a wall here. Heiyunlong ran away, but the main force in this city is not Heiyunlong and his guardsmen and servants. Nor is it the 300-person camp. Soldiers. Instead, there are eight profiteers with nearly 20,000 strong men. Just stay here and prepare for their counterattack. "
At this time, the battalion in the eastern section was defeated earlier and had already escaped down the horse road at the east corner.
Wang Fen still has about a hundred people left. He was very clear-headed and had similar thoughts to Hei Yunlong. He was also cursing the profiteers in his heart for refusing to save him and letting his 300 men and more than 500 people from Hei Yunlong stand in front to resist.
He immediately abandoned the northern city wall with his defeated troops and ran towards Wenchang Pavilion. He is not a fool, even though his residence is the school ground in the east of the city. There are his barracks and warehouses.
However, the soldiers in the camp have not been paid for a year. The rats in the warehouse are starving to death. Everything that could be sold in the arsenal was sold.
Otherwise, these three hundred people will eat and drink whatever they want.
He had discovered it long ago. Hei Yunlong, this old boy, is very cunning. He has been strengthening Wenchang Pavilion for a long time. Use bluestone strips around the platform base to increase the height of the platform. And a large amount of food and supplies were stored in the basement of Wenchang Pavilion. There are also firearms and weapons.
He has been here for six years. Many people make money through smuggling.
This small Wenchang Pavilion is a solid stronghold for him to save his life. There was enough ammunition, food, and wells there, so it was possible to hold on for three months. By then the Mongols would have already retreated.
Now, the blizzard has stopped and the weather is warming up rapidly. The Beijing camp army is probably about to arrive.
I lost my money and used it as a shield for profiteers. In the end, the imperial court will definitely hold it accountable for losing its land.
However, as long as Wenchang Pavilion was not lost, Zhangjiakou Fort was not completely lost.
As for profiteers, you can make up your own mind. I don't want to serve you anymore.
