Twenty steps, the distance between the two sides was only twenty steps, and Kang Lin and others were shooting from a high position. After a burst of neat gunfire, four or five people of the charging Japanese pirate brigade fell down! However, this loss could not stop their forward momentum at all. The ronin, who had the attribute of being crazy, did not care about the companions who kept falling down around him, and continued to charge with Japanese swords and bamboo spears!
"Light a fire and blow up his grandma!" Looking at the Japanese pirates who came one after another and went crazy, Kang Lin felt anxious in his heart, but after all, he was not the first brother who had just entered the battlefield and didn't understand anything, so when he roared In the middle, more than ten strong men used the burning brazier on the wall to light the explosive barrels in their hands, and threw them towards the enemy coming from the chrysalis!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom..." As black smoke rose up, homemade bombs suddenly exploded in the crowd of Japanese pirates. The lead bullets that shot out were like cutting wheat, knocking down many brave Japanese ronin! You know, what Kang Lin and the others used were not the simple explosive cartridges used by Jia Liu and others in the previous bloody battle at Tutouling, but the 2.0 version that was doubled in power. Kang Lin had several firearms masters in the fleet after the war. High-end goods made by improvised craftsmen! It not only contains a lot of high-quality gunpowder produced by the system, but also places a lot of lead bullets and broken porcelain pieces to enhance the lethality. It is most effective for dealing with unarmored or lightly armored targets such as Japanese pirates!
"One more round, send these little dwarfs to meet their Amaterasu!" Kanglin saw that the effect was good, and quickly called on his men to give the Japanese pirates another round of earth bombs, which killed a group of murderous Mishima little ones. The dwarfs suffered heavy casualties in the explosion and stopped moving forward. After all, the ronins were just brave and not afraid of death, not completely brainless. They couldn't hit each other, but they were pressed to the ground and rubbed by each other. Individuals would hesitate and be in a dilemma. They were able to maintain the offensive under such circumstances without retreating directly. They can already be called an elite division! But their enemies didn't stop because they were elites. In addition to Kang Lin's group who had loaded their flintlock short muskets and prepared to shoot again, even the Ming soldiers on the courtyard wall also joined in to beat the drowned dogs in time. They were originally preparing to take down the scaffolding, but when they saw that the opponent's offensive was successfully contained by Kang Lin and others, they also picked up the bows and arrows and muskets that they regarded as burdensome and threw them aside, and began to attack the chaotic people. Enemy forces open fire! Therefore, gunpowder smoke was everywhere and projectiles were flying. The Ronin's vanguard troops were beaten with bruises on their heads and were in a miserable state. However, they did not receive the order to retreat and did not dare to evacuate without authorization. They could only pick up the corpses of their dead companions next to them. Cover, avoid the arrows and lead bullets that are constantly shooting from above your head!
"くそったれ, とっととナイフの刀の手の上げるな (bastard, don't rush up to the sword and shield hand)! Looking at the arrows and lead bullets flying around above his head, Kimura Kojiro couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart, as A senior pirate warrior of Matsuura Domain, this time he led his troops to the rich Ming Dynasty coast to rob the wealth and children, and brought them back to enrich the strength of his feudal country. Instead of traveling thousands of miles from Mishima to the Ming Dynasty to give people their heads, he gave them to Ming Dynasty. The Ming army had a chance to make a contribution. Now they haven't even touched the courtyard wall occupied by the Ming army. There are more than ten or twenty people on their side dead. If they can't find a suitable way to break the situation, then there is only one way to retreat. However, before leaving, the task of five hundred stones of food and grass, one thousand taels of silver, and three hundred young men and women ordered by the Matsuura sect's righteous helper before leaving was a hard target. If he could not complete it, let alone be promoted. Even the current warrior status may be taken away by others!
When he thought that his many years of hard work might be in vain, Kimura Kojiro's initially wavering heart became firm again. He didn't want to lose his status as a samurai, let alone go back to being a cheap pirate, so he could only drive these men away. Help the Ronin continue to attack the courtyard occupied by the Ming army, hoping to use superior force to remove this stubborn nail on the road to success!
"The shield comes forward, the army comes to support, the large barrel team, the musket team, and the bow and arrow team attack continuously (the shield hand comes forward to cover the army, and the large tube team, musket team, and bow team attack continuously)!"
Therefore, under his calm command, the ragged and barefoot ronin musketeers, barrelmen, and archers quickly resumed long-range attacks like target shooting, while the rest of the ronin soldiers relied on rattans and planks. , under the cover of corpses, they quietly hid in a place where the Ming army's lead bullets and arrows could not hit. As soon as the defenders on the courtyard wall were suppressed and defeated by the distant soldiers, they would transform into bloodthirsty demons and rush forward. Climb the courtyard wall and start a one-sided massacre!
"Brother Hao, no, we can't stop the Japanese pirates' attack with the muskets in our hands. How about we bring in the Tiger Crouching Cannon and the Xiaolang Machine?" Arrows and lead bullets kept flying overhead, There were constant screams and roars in his ears, and the ferocious faces of Japanese pirates kept flashing in his eyes. Kang Lin was also panicking at this time! When I read it before, I saw that dozens of Japanese pirates could conquer many provinces and could not be controlled by the guards and barracks. I also laughed at the weakness and incompetence of the Ming Dynasty army and its many shortcomings. However, it was my turn to fight against these murderous gangs. When the blinking devil placed it right, the inexplicable sense of superiority in his heart had long since disappeared. The boss of Kangda, who really felt that his life was in danger, immediately asked Hao Datong to use artillery! However, the latter, who had always been very talkative, shook his head helplessly this time and politely rejected his proposal! The reason was for no other reason than that the bamboo springboard under their feet was too soft and unreliable, and could not offset the recoil produced by the Tiger Crouching Cannon and the Xiaolang Machine after being fired, and Mr. Hao did not want his improvised scaffolding to be fired after all. The cannon fell apart and could not be used, so he cruelly refused the proposal of his sponsor!
"No, no, our cannon is too powerful, it will collapse the bamboo frame under our feet..."
"Then what should we do next? The Japanese have those short and thick cannons (big barrels), but they are really not easy to deal with!" Kang Lin is still determined to be evil, and still wants to persuade Hao Datong to move the cannon onto the courtyard wall to help his side resist In his view, the Japanese pirates' fierce attack was an unequal battle because the enemy had cannons but he had no cannons. This mistake must be resolutely corrected!
"Sir, why don't we move the prisoner-killing cannon up to defend against the enemy? After all, it only weighs about ninety kilograms and the recoil is not too big. As long as we are careful, there should be no problem..." Kang Lin insisted on transporting the cannon. Go up the wall, but Hao Datong insisted. Li Anfu, the centenarian next to him, was afraid that the two would get into a real fight, so he put forward a compromise suggestion, hoping to calm the dispute between the two! After all, now that there is a powerful enemy, it is not the time for internal strife.
"Can you spread the word?" After listening to Li Anfu and Li Baichang's muddy suggestion, before the official Shangguan Hao Datong expressed his position, Kang Lin, a half-time military strategist, asked the question that was most concerned about him. In his opinion, the coalition forces now What is most needed is area-killing weapons rather than point-killing weapons. It would be great if the prisoner-killing cannon could fire both single bombs and scattered missiles at the same time.
"Master Kang, it's not a problem!" Faced with the inquiry of the upstart and wealthy Kang Lin, Centennial Li Anfu did not dare to neglect, and immediately gave an affirmative answer with his neck shrinking. Don't ask him why he was shrinking his neck, he didn't see it The lead bullets fired by the Japanese firecrackers and archers are still flying overhead!
"Then let's hoist up the prisoner-killing cannon. Remember, brothers, be careful. The Japanese's lead arrows don't have long eyes. Don't let it bite..." In the end, it was Li Anfu. It was only after Hao Datong, his immediate boss, made the decision that the matter was settled! Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the Ming army who received the military order used shields to cover their heads, found ropes and began to hoist the prisoner-killing cannon onto the courtyard wall. To be honest, the artillery is not heavy, only about 90 kilograms, but they can't stand up straight and drag it, so they use the strength of their old noses to fire two of the two cannons. Iron bomb's anti-Japanese cannon was hoisted onto the rickety bamboo scaffolding, and then it was lifted and moved again. It was difficult to install the two artillery pieces in the right place. Next, they waited for the order from the supreme commander Hao Datong. When you press down, you can spit deadly flames and projectiles at the Japanese pirates!
"You guys bring more ropes and tie this bird cannon tightly for me. Don't let it bounce up and hurt people..." After looking at the round cannon tube, Hao Datong still felt uneasy, so he called again. Several confidants used thick hemp ropes to wrap up the cannons one after another, fearing that the iron lumps would break out and hurt someone! And what happened next also proved that his worries were not unfounded and unreasonable, because after the two captive-killing cannons sprayed out two iron bullets weighing one kilogram and dozens of lead pellets of different sizes, With a lot of recoil, it suddenly started to slide backwards. Thanks to a few extra hemp ropes tied earlier, otherwise it would have toppled over the courtyard wall, killing and injuring several people!
"The enemy's artillery is holding the gun, and it's early (the enemy's country has collapsed, get out of the way)!" Two flowers bloomed, one on each side, not to mention the various chaotic noises on the courtyard wall, dozens of them The large and small shells that came out of the gun pierced into the charging crowd in the blink of an eye, and then bounced and rolled all the way, smashing countless human bodies, breaking many arms and thighs before exhausting all the kinetic energy and stopping! And if this power had to be described in one word, it would definitely be "gods will kill gods if they block it, and Buddhas will kill Buddha if they block it." The iron ball pushed out by the black gunpowder is invincible and unstoppable!
"Clean the gun barrel, load ammunition, restore the gun position, aim at the target, let's fire another blunderbuss, let these Japanese dwarfs see what our Ming heroes can do!" Seeing that his attack was effective, Hao Datong and others The officers of the Chao Dynasty immediately became energetic. At this moment, they no longer cared about the danger of the soldiers. They raised their heads and shouted at the top of their voices, shouting at their subordinates to continue loading artillery and attack those vicious Japanese pirates and bandits!
