The effective direct range of the Tiger Crouching Cannon is only a few dozen steps, but the elevation range is more than 200 steps.
The straight-line distance between the turret in the cottage and the Crouching Tiger Cannon is only about a hundred steps, and the diagonal distance is only a little over a hundred steps, which is just within the range of the Crouching Tiger Cannon.
Several squatting tiger cannons fired one after another, and iron beads flew out densely like a fan.
Most of the iron beads hit the air and did not hit the turret, but a small number of iron beads still hit the archers on the turret, and some of the iron beads shot into the wooden partitions of the turret and were deeply embedded inside. .
The archer who was hit by the iron ball let out a scream, and the inertia of the impact caused the archer to fall from the turret.
Fortunately... the archer was dead before he hit the ground, saving him the pain of falling to the ground.
After clearing out the archers on a turret, Zheng Chao ordered: "All gunners bring the tiger crouching cannon and go to the turret on the left."
The squatting tiger cannon, which weighed more than 30 kilograms, was lifted up by the gunner's two claws gripping the ground. He trotted on his waist and came to the bottom of the turret on the left.
The muzzle of the gun was aimed at the archers above the turret, the loading gunner loaded gunpowder and iron beads, and the last gunner fired the Tiger Crouching Cannon.
Several tiger squatting cannons fired at a turret at the same time, easily killing the archer above, and his body fell from the turret.
There are two turrets and one tower in the Erliang Mountain Dazhai. After taking care of the turrets, Zheng Chao ordered the squatting gunners to attack the bandits on the towers.
Before Zheng Chao could lead people over, all the bandits on the tower had already run down from the tower.
By the time the Tiger Crouching Cannon was aimed at the tower, there was no one on it.
The bandits on the tower had a full view of what happened on the two turrets. The archers on the tower didn't think they could survive the shelling outside the stronghold, so naturally they were unwilling to stay on the tower to seek death.
Liang Da behind the village wall did not embarrass the archers who came down from the tower.
The dead and wounded archers on the two turrets had made him understand that the archers in the stockade were no threat to the artillery outside, and remaining on the towers would be a target for the artillery.
Wow!
The entire cottage gate suddenly collapsed, and an iron ball fell into the cottage. The two wooden cottage doors turned into pieces of wood, and the broken wood was scattered everywhere.
"No, the gate of the village is broken. Liang Da is the master. We can't stay here anymore. Go back to the house at the back." Shi Yunhu grabbed Liang Da and hurriedly ran towards the house at the back of the village.
Many bandits from Erliang Mountain were broken up at the gate of the village, and the leader fled, and they all fled in confusion.
As soon as the village gate was broken, the Fo Lang machine gun outside stopped firing.
Wang Yuncheng ordered: "The squatting tiger cannons will be stationed at the village gate. Only the bandits who want to escape from the village gate will fire directly. The fire gun team will go up the village wall."
The two squatting tiger cannons were moved more than thirty steps in front of the village gate. The two tiger cannons were on the left and right of the village gate, with their muzzles facing directly towards the village gate.
There was no threat from the village archers on the turret. Several wooden ladders were carried up to the village wall, and the gunmen climbed up the wall along the wooden ladders.
Soon, the wall of the village was filled with firecrackers, shooting firecrackers at the bandits inside the village from a high position.
Liang Er led his men to get a pile of stones and hurried back from behind the stronghold.
As soon as he appeared, he saw that the gate of the cottage was gone. The two original wooden doors had turned into broken pieces of wood scattered on the ground. He could see the two artillery pieces outside at a glance.
Seeing this, he reacted very quickly, turned around and backed away.
His appearance was naturally noticed by the gunmen on the wall, and more than a dozen fireguns were immediately aimed at him.
When the fire cannon was fired, Liang Er rolled over and rolled behind Shi Lei, and luckily escaped. However, the bandits following him were not so lucky. They were directly hit by the fire cannon and fell to the ground, struggling. It took a few breaths before he breathed his last.
Liang Er wiped the cold sweat from his head. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been among the people hit by the fire cannon just now.
"Second, second boss, what should we do?" One of the bandits stuttered and asked Liang Er.
The cottage has been broken. Although there are more than 400 bandits in Erliang Mountain, without the barrier of the cottage, they are no match for the Tiger Flag.
boom! boom……
The sound of firecrackers sounded from time to time, accompanied by screams.
For the firecrackers of the Tiger Flag, there was almost no danger when they stood on the mountain stronghold and fired firecrackers at the bandits in the village. The bandits in the village were running around like headless flies, and there was no time to fight back.
Moreover, even if they wanted to fight back, they couldn't.
Only a few archers in the village had a chance to hit the fire gunners who were at a high place with their arrows.
As soon as the village gate was broken down, several archers from Erliang Mountain followed Liang Da and Shi Yunhu back to the house behind the village.
"We can't hold on anymore, Erliang Mountain is over." Liang Da looked defeated and slumped on the wooden chair.
Shi Yunhu's face next to him also looked very ugly.
He originally thought that with the power of the Tiger Flag, he could weaken the strength of Erliang Mountain and several other mountain villages, giving him a chance to take over the entire Daliang Mountain.
What he didn't expect was that the Tiger Character Banner was far more powerful than he imagined. It had already broken the solid stronghold of Erliang Mountain with just its cannons and artillery.
After hesitating for a moment, he knew he couldn't sit still and wait for death.
When he was still Shi Dagui, he had harmed Liu Heng's life several times. With their relationship, if he really fell into Liu Heng's hands, he would have no chance of survival.
Thinking of this, he said to Liang Da on the side: "There are still many brothers in the village. As long as you and I join forces, we will have a chance to escape even if we can't repel the Tiger Flag people."
Hearing this, Liang Da's eyes became brighter. He grabbed Shi Yunhu's wrist and said eagerly: "As long as I can survive, I will listen to you."
Shi Yunhu took his wrist out of Liang Da's hand and said: "Gather all the brothers in the village and rush out together. As long as we rush out of the village and enter the forest, we will be safe."
"But..." Liang Da hesitated for a moment and said, "The stronghold is already surrounded by people of the Tiger Flag. The walls of the stronghold are full of gunmen with the Tiger Flag. There are artillery outside the gate of the stronghold. How can we rush out?"
He was not tempted by Shi Yunhu's proposal, or he had no hope.
Shi Yunhu advised: "As long as you soak the quilt and cover it on the wooden board, you can block the blunderbuss. As for the artillery..."
At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "The slow reloading of the artillery allows others to rush in front. When the cannon is fired, we can take the opportunity to rush out."
Liang Da rolled his eyes, thinking about whether Shi Yunhu's idea was feasible.
As for how many bandits were killed or injured in the village, he didn't care or care.
Shi Yunhu on the side urged: "Master Liang, don't hesitate. Once all the people in the Tiger Flag enter the stronghold, it will be difficult for us to escape."
"What should I do with the second child?" Liang Dayi frowned.
He can care whether others live or die, but Liang Er is his own brother.
Shi Yunhu said: "Liang Er, the lucky person has his own destiny. Even if something happens, as long as Liang Da, you escape, there will always be a chance to seek revenge from the tiger-character flag. If Liang Da, you also die, who can Avenge Mr. Liang Er’s family.”
Hearing this, Liang Da hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I will listen to you, gather the people and rush out now."
"Wait a minute." Shi Yunhu suddenly raised his hand to stop Liang Da.
Liang Da looked at Shi Yunhu in confusion.
