There were so many flying monsters that almost covered the entire sky. Their heads had a bloody mouth and they looked extremely ferocious. Maybe they were summoned from the underworld by the wise dog prince.

The Eight Banners soldiers still had a certain will to resist at this time. Under the command of Niu Lu Zhangjing and others, they were still resisting the Ming army's attack, as long as those monsters in the sky did not fly to their heads.

The armored soldiers of the two banners of the Han army suddenly collapsed under the attack of these behemoths. They were frightened to the point of losing their morale and fled to the rear in a hurry.

If he stayed in the same area, he would feel that he would always be targeted by these bloodthirsty and cruel natural enemies, and he would not be safe even if he hid in the tank.

If an explosive object falls from the sky and hits you on top of your head, you will be blown to pieces. At this juncture, your life still matters!

"Don't retreat! Hold on, Master..."

"Whoosh...boom~!"

Faced with a situation where his troops were almost escaping, Niu Lu tried to stop him and was about to kill a slave who ran to him with a knife.

Before he could raise his sword and put it down as a warning, an aerial bomb suddenly fell at his feet, killing him and an armored soldier. Several people around him were killed directly.

The armored soldiers who had not been affected were so frightened when they saw this tragic situation that they ran back like crazy. If they ran slower, they would undoubtedly be blown to death here.

Who can resist so many flying monsters?

If Master Baqi is really powerful, then let’s try shooting arrows!

Once these flying monsters are defeated, it won't be too late for them, the slaves, to fight back.

"They are all as cowardly as rats! Charge forward and chop down the barbarian!"

Jueluo Baishan was unwilling to fail. He didn't even launch an attack and was overwhelmed by the barbarians on the opposite side. How should he explain to the emperor when he returned?

In the current situation, even if everyone is dead, you have to withstand it. Otherwise, if you manage to enter the city through the cave and are driven back by the barbarian, where will you put your face?

One hundred steps back is the limit. If we retreat any further, the whole team will be completely in chaos if we can't protect the whole team. It will be impossible to reorganize the attack. We have to fight back.

"嗻!"

Two Niu Lu's Eight Banners soldiers took the order and immediately launched a counterattack in an attempt to contain the offensive of the Man Ming defenders and regain the initiative to attack.

After losing the hostages, the Eight Banners soldiers no longer expected these Nikans to serve their side. After the enemy troops were driven back, they would slaughter all the Nikans here.

"Eight Banners Warriors, invincible! Charge!"

"Kill the barbarian!"

As soon as the horn sounded, the Eight Banners soldiers poured from the streets and alleys towards Lin Baoguo's main force attacking along Fuchengmen Street. Once they were able to get through to the Fuchengmen defenders, it would mean that the area under their control was occupied. Cut in half.

The Eight Banners soldiers fired arrows while charging, and faced the extremely fierce artillery fire towards the dog barbarians on the opposite side. As long as they got within ten steps, they would be within the attack range of the Qing warriors.

Bows and arrows fight against the Franco machine!

The former has a faster rate of fire, and the latter has more firepower!

A hail of arrows fell suddenly, making the armor of the musketeers and the armored shells of the tanks clang.

Before the change, there would definitely be large-scale casualties and a considerable number of soldiers would lose their combat effectiveness.

But nowadays, attacks of this level can only damage non-vital parts such as calves and forearms. As long as the defense direction is correct, most musketeers will even be unscathed.

"Fire!"

"Pah, pah, pah..."

The musketeers of the Fourth Brigade were not to be outdone. The power of the new muskets they equipped was not much lower than that of the Dog Tartars' bows. After using special bullets, the power was even better.

"ah……"

After the wax seal was melted by the high temperature, the white phosphorus DAM bullets exposed to the air followed a straight trajectory and instantly penetrated the armor of some unlucky people, suddenly penetrated into the flesh, and began to burn in the subcutaneous tissue.

Even if the injured armored soldier with the yellow flag was rolling on the ground in pain, it would not help. No matter how strong a warrior was, facing such a gunshot wound, it would be impossible for him to grit his teeth and hold on.

The white phosphorus in the warhead will continue to burn until it burns through the bone. The white phosphorus will not be extinguished until it is exhausted, so the whole process is as scary as a drill drilling holes in the bone.

But this is the effect a certain prince wants. White phosphorus bullets are expensive to manufacture and must be stored with extreme care so that they can be distributed before the attack.

But once it hits the target and penetrates into the target's flesh, even if it can achieve the original intention of "killing a dog Tatar with one bullet", even if it costs one penny, it will be worth every penny.

After a shooting exchange, only a dozen people from the East Palace Guards fell down, while hundreds of Eight Banners soldiers who rushed towards them were knocked down.

Regardless of whether it is a field battle or a street battle, the musketeers only play a supporting role, and the small Folan machine equipped with the tank is the protagonist on the battlefield.

Twenty tanks mean that they are equipped with twenty rapid-fire artillery pieces, which can fire at least hundreds of grapeshot pellets within a minute, which can cause a devastating blow to enemy infantry when fired at close range.

With its own armor shell, the tank can also cover the infantry advancing together, effectively reducing infantry casualties, and it is the core unit of the entire strategy.

As long as the tank is not destroyed, the infantry can always fight around the tank. With movable bunkers and powerful firepower, the Ming army infantry will not be easily overwhelmed by the Qing army's armored soldiers.

The warriors with the yellow flag are not afraid of death. They can kill the barbarians on the opposite side. No matter how heavy the casualties are, it is worth it. Nothing can stop the warriors of the Qing Dynasty.

Under the fierce shelling, the more than 400 armored soldiers who were not injured or killed continued to charge forward without being repelled by the artillery fire. It was a great achievement to kill the enemy in front of them.

"The one in the back row fires up and throws a grenade! Ordinary bombs!"

The grenades equipped by the soldiers of the East Palace Guards do not require special lighters to ignite. They only need to insert the fuse into the ignition mechanism of the flintlock gun and pull the trigger to ignite.

However, the whole process from ignition to bomb delivery takes several seconds. The officers supervising and commanding on-site operations must always keep a close eye on the situation ahead and make predictions and advance measures. Otherwise, it will be too late for the enemy to rush over and light the bomb again.

When dropping bombs at close range, you cannot throw special bombs, that is, venom grenades, which are likely to hurt your own people. It is enough to throw ordinary types. This style was finally available in large quantities, and everyone received several of them.

How spectacular it is to see dozens of people throwing grenades forward, one after another. The soldiers in the back row light the grenades and throw them out, then light the second one.

Since the flintlock gun also needs reloading time, the back row is responsible for dropping bombs at this time, and the companions in the front row who have finished loading are responsible for shooting the dog Tatar who rushes through the grenade explosion area.

Aren't you able to rush?

There are more people waiting for the grenade I threw over!

Let this group of turtles and grandsons eat to their fullest, and it’s best to stay alive until they die!

"Boom boom boom boom..."

The armored soldiers with yellow flags rushing in front seemed to feel like they were exploding with every step they took. There was no pure land in front of them and on both sides, and they were all filled with fire.

There was no feeling at the moment when the steel ball hit the body, and a sharp pain was felt later. Many people died on the spot without even feeling severe pain.

The further he rushed forward, the fiercer the dog barbarian's firepower became, and the more corpses of his companions appeared.

Although the armored monster no longer fires, the exploding club has been thrown too much, right?

The armored soldier with the yellow flag tried to throw it but didn't get a chance. The opponent even threw a club and fired a gun, leaving his side unable to resist.

After a fierce shelling just now, the tank crew was loading the small muskets of the Xiaoflang machine.

At present, if they want to resist the counterattack of the Dog Tatars, the infantry can only rely on their own firepower.

But the combination of muskets and grenades can also protect yourself, and if that doesn't work, you can still use a bayonet to fight.

However, the dog Tatar on the opposite side chose a method that the East Palace Guards liked the most, which was to rush straight over.

This kind of attack is most convenient to use muskets and grenades to block, and the casualties on one's own side will be very small, completely within the acceptable range.

The roofs on both sides were occupied by factory guards, who would also use bows and arrows to shoot enemies who appeared in the streets.

"withdraw!"

After suffering nearly half of their casualties, these enemies in yellow armor finally couldn't stand it anymore. They didn't expect that the firepower of the barbarians on the opposite side was so powerful.

This is a completely one-sided situation. If this situation continues, even if they all die on the spot, they will not be able to kill a few barbarians.

After exceeding their own casualty limit, even the arrogant Yellow Flag Tribe could no longer hold on and began to turn around and run backwards.

This means leaving your back to the enemy and allowing them to fire at will. If you are not hit, you will be lucky. If you are hit, you will have to consider yourself unlucky.

"oops!"

Jueluo Baishan, who was watching the battle from behind, covered his chest and gnashed his teeth with hatred. Two of Niulu's armored soldiers finally ran back and could not reach half of Niulu. The rest were either dead or injured.

If you can't repel the barbarians rushing across the river, you won't be able to control the battlefield, and the wounded soldiers won't be able to be saved. Being captured by the barbarians will mean death.

There were only about a hundred warriors left out of a total of 1,500 warriors. Jueluo Baishan felt as desperate as the sky was falling and the earth was falling.

No one would be able to fight back, at least it would be impossible for our own troops to fight back. If the fight continues, the whole army will be annihilated, but what can we do otherwise?

The dog barbarians are pressing forward step by step, and we are retreating steadily.

There are dog-like monsters in the sky, and there are dog-like monsters on the ground.

If it weren't for these objects, Jibu would definitely not be so passive!

"The Ming Dynasty will win!"

"attack!"

The infantry resumed pushing the tanks and slowly advanced along Fuchengmen Street.

What the Qing army didn't know was that even after a fierce battle in the middle of the night, the Ming army soldiers were still full of fighting spirit and energy.

First of all, they had a good breakfast. From the top down, everyone ate meat, which replenished the lost physical strength in time.

Secondly, there were a large number of airships and tanks to assist in the battle, especially the appearance of airships, which greatly enhanced the confidence of the soldiers.

Thirdly, I heard those inspiring sounds of nature. Although the effect is small, it cannot be ignored.

After the catalysis of these three aspects, the morale of the Ming army, dominated by the East Palace Guards, has risen to its peak!

"Whoosh! Boom!"

There were a large number of airships bombarding the front, which further convinced the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers that the battle would be won.

If the dog Tatars are unable to destroy the airship, they will inevitably suffer a disastrous defeat and even be completely annihilated in the city.

"Guisun! Try this!"

The pilot on the airship looked down at the ground from a high altitude. The densely packed colored dots below were all armored soldiers of the Dog Tartars.

The armor of your own infantry will reflect light under sunlight, so it is very easy to identify. Even if you can't see clearly, you can still identify it through a large tank.

Generally speaking, places that are bombed and have color are probably the gathering places of barbarians. It is always right to drop bombs. There is really nothing more satisfying than killing Tatars in the sky in this world.

Initially, the airship was equipped with explosive packets, and the aviation troops had to measure their altitude before dropping the bombs.

The easy way to measure goodness is to drop a bag of dye down and start counting.

1001, 1002, 1003…

This is the rule of the prince. It is said that counting like this is almost the same as counting seconds.

When you see the dye exploding on the ground, remember the corresponding time. You can refer to the "time and altitude meter" of your own equipment to calculate the altitude of the airship at this time.

The altimeter is annotated with the length of the fuse corresponding to each height, so that the fuse of the explosive package can be set so that it can explode when it falls to the ground to avoid the fuse being pulled out by nearby dog ​​tartars.

However, with the introduction of touch-down aerial bombs, the previous method is no longer needed. Apart from manual launch, this kind of aerial bomb does not require the aviation force to worry about anything else, and is almost fully automatic.

As long as it is thrown from the airship, it will rush down and fly directly to the designated target. The accuracy of the landing point is also relatively high. Generally speaking, it will not miss more than twenty steps.

There are too few aerial bombs that the airship can carry, which is not enough for everyone to throw. Even the "Wanli-Kirov" 2A airship that can carry fourteen aerial bombs can almost throw it in a short time.

Furthermore, the weight of the aerial bomb is too small, only ten kilograms. This needs to be replaced by an aerial bomb weighing fifty kilograms or even a hundred kilograms. If one is thrown, it can blow up dozens of dog tartars!

However, looking at the ridiculous sight of dogs and warriors scurrying around on the ground really made the airmen on the airship feel relaxed and happy. It was a life well spent to be able to fly across the sky.

If Master Wang could equip hundreds or even thousands of airships, not to mention repelling the dog Tatars besieging the capital, it would be easy to regain Liaodong.

As long as the Dog Tartars can't find a way to restrain the airship, the Ming Dynasty will be invincible. They can strike first every time and know the enemy's movements well.

This is all thanks to the Crown Prince. Without the Crown Prince, how could Master Wang be equipped with such sharp weapons?

Anyone who dares to say that the prince has never been to the fairy world is blind and completely ignores the existence of airships.

In this world, even the Western Yi thousands of miles away cannot make similar weapons...

"Boom~!"

The clever flying monsters carried out dragnet bombings, causing all the Qing troops to suffer miserably.

If you don't understand the meaning of the word "catastrophe", you can know it just by looking up.

No one could have imagined that the King of the Qing Dynasty would be in such an embarrassing situation, unable to do anything against those behemoths in the sky.

Many people even wonder how such a large object can fly into the sky. Shouldn't it be too heavy to fly?

But these monsters can not only dominate the blue sky, but can also throw explosive objects down. Isn't this going to kill all the Qing warriors?

People can hit you casually in heaven, but you can't help but stare at them on the ground!

If the mouth is opened wider, the object may be thrown into the mouth.

Is there anything more terrifying than this in this world?

Most people who fought in the war thought it was gone unless they could see it again.

Could it be Kunpeng who can spit fire?

Maybe!

It seems that the shamans of the Qing Dynasty didn’t recognize this bird?

So how do you summon it to do your bidding?

Even if they know each other, what should we do now that the shaman has not entered the city?
