Goryeo, Ganghwa Island, Geumjeongsan Fortress.
"Lower the muzzle and keep firing at the defenders on the city!" Seeing that the attack failed to work, Fan Huzi, the temporary commander of the Chiyang Artillery Corps, waved his Yanling knife and fired at the more than ten artillerymen under his command again. The order was given to reset the artillery, adjust the muzzle height, and fire again. He was from the Dongjiang Army and was no stranger to the artillery equipped by the Ming Army. After arriving in another world, he studied under Yan Si, a master of artillery, and learned a lot of ranging and artillery skills. Therefore, after the first round of shooting did not achieve the desired effect, this guy started to go into battle himself! In addition to constantly adjusting the angle of the artillery so that it could target the Goryeo defenders on the city wall, General Fan Jingfan also braved the arrows constantly being shot from the city top and led his flag army to advance the artillery position further. Twenty or thirty steps!
At this time, the distance between the two sides was shortened to one hundred, sixty or seventy steps for the first time. Then, the firelight kept flashing, and the thunderous sound sounded again. Chiyang's five artillery sprayed out hot lead bullets at an extremely fast speed. , cannons, and thick smoke, and this time the luck of the Goryeo defenders was not as good as last time! Because it was a close-range attack, Chiyang finally achieved his first harvest since the war started. The flying lead bullets and cannons not only made holes in the city wall, but also knocked down people among the lightning and flint. Many Jianghua volunteers had no time to dodge! The latter were not as knowledgeable as the officers in the imperial camp. Seeing that the lead bullets fired by Chiyang's artillery did not hit anyone or anything, they thought that Chiyang's long-range attacks were all about loud thunder. A bluff with little raindrops. So, when the Fo Lang machine and Weiyuan artillery fired a large number of lead bullets and artillery pieces again towards the city, this group of people actually stood there without fear of death, preparing to use bows and arrows to give the invading enemy a head-on blow. !
Then, there was a tragedy. The Folan cannon and the Weiyuan cannon showed good accuracy after adjusting the muzzle height. A large number of lead bullets, driven by the gunpowder gas, fell into the air like a parabola. In the crowd of defenders, some volunteer archers who had no time to dodge were instantly wounded and killed! Next, while his illness was killing him, the loader of the Folang machine gun quickly removed the blunderbuss, regardless of whether it was hot to his hands, and replaced it with a new blunderbuss. Finally, he inserted a locking breech bolt. The gunner, who was not very experienced in combat, completed the loading of the artillery piece in a very short time. Then, the igniter raised a wooden stick wrapped with a igniting rope and struck it hard at the ignition port on the gun. The next moment, the gunpowder in the sub-gun was ignited by an open flame. The expanding gas instantly pushed the one-pound cannonball out of the sub-gun. Then, through the acceleration of the mother gun, the cannonball appeared in Korea with the power of cave gold and cracked stone. In front of the defenders! Since the red cannon appeared on the battlefield in East Asia, the world thought that the Franco machine had become outdated, but they did not know how powerful a carefully built and maintained Franco machine could be in the hands of professionals. Although The air tightness between the gun and the barrel of this thing is not good, causing the gunpowder gas to leak outside the barrel, and the effective range is therefore shortened. However, Chiyang's artillery position is only 200 steps away from the mountain city. Even with direct aim, it can easily hit the nearby mountain city wall, not to mention that the Fo Lang machine used by Chiyang is an enhanced version that has been modified by the system. Therefore, with the blessing of refined black gunpowder, the three-door Franco machine exerted extremely terrifying power. The pound of iron bullets it continuously fired hit the mountain wall and stone fragments flew away, and the defenders howled like ghosts! What's more important is that the rate of fire of this thing is very fast. Each shot can be completed in just five or six breaths. Therefore, with the efforts of the Chiyang gunners, Fan Hushu didn't even have time to finish a pack of cigarettes. The gun crew's The three-door Folang machine poured out like a dragon's breath - more than thirty hot shells! After that, there was nothing more. Although the ten rounds of shooting inflicted heavy casualties on the Korean defenders, the gun barrel of the Fo Lang machine had also become extremely hot. Even if it was continuously watered, it could not cool down in a short time. Therefore, Chiyang's The artillerymen paused the firing of the Folang machine and instead pushed up the two loaded Weiyuan cannons!
Different from the cannons and lead bullets fired last time, Chiyang's artillerymen used blooming bullets this time, a new type of artillery shell with a thin iron shell, filled with gunpowder, and a wooden tube delay fuse! Fan Huzi personally went to adjust the artillery. Wang Tang and another bannerman brought in two round cannonballs that looked like small watermelons, then lit the fuse on them, carefully stuffed them into the short and thick barrels, and made All preparations before launch! Next, as Commander Fan Huxu gave an order, the two Weiyuan cannons instantly sprayed out thick smoke and two iron ball shells that kept emitting sparks in the direction of Jinjing Mountain City!
“?????????,????????????????????????,????,?????????? ??????????????,????????????????,????????????????(That What are they, why are they still blazing, no, they are coming towards us, let’s evacuate quickly, let’s evacuate quickly)!” Looking at the round iron ball swinging and falling above his head, it was still coming out. On fire! The Koreans instinctively felt that this thing did not look like a good thing, so they fled one after another, looking for bunkers that could block the impact of the bullets. The power of the shells did not exceed their expectations, except for one that missed the target. Inside and outside the wall, there is another star falling impartially on the city wall! Then, with a "boom" sound, the cannonball exploded on the city wall. For a moment, the shock wave generated by the explosion not only allowed several Korean soldiers who were not well-hidden to fly for free on a local plane, but also destroyed the defensive tools on the city wall. And some other messy things were smashed with clanking noises. An iron pot filled with golden juice was overturned in the explosion. The hot excrement water splashed out and poured all over the heads of the Korean soldiers, letting them understand what was going on. That’s why it’s so painful that you can’t bear to live, and the stench is unbearable! To make matters worse, Chiyang's infantry was dispatched. The Chiyang infantry, which consisted of more than 120 people, took advantage of the fact that the defenders at the top of the city were suppressed by artillery. Without saying a word, they rushed forward carrying long ladders made of bamboo and wood. When they came over, they did not just attack and fight fiercely, but trotted very methodically, raising the flintlock guns in their hands and shooting crossbows to cover. At the same time, a Folang machine that had cooled down first also Joining the ranks of suppression, this small copper cannon fired continuously at a rate of ten breaths! Now, the defenders at the top of the city were even more helpless. Not only did they have to avoid flying bullets and arrows, but they also had to put out fires that might appear at any time. However, they had no time to fire arrows to suppress the approaching enemies. Chiyang Infantry!
“????,?????????,?????????????????????????????? ????????? (No, the Japanese pirates are coming, everyone quickly picked up their bows and fired arrows to suppress their attack)!" Of course, not everyone has time to take care of the approaching enemy siege. Troops, because at least Jin Qingyuan's personal soldiers and the only fourteen soldiers of the Tiger Catching Army noticed this situation, but their number was too small, and the matchlocks and bows and arrows in their hands were not enough to suppress Chi Yang who was advancing violently under the city. Infantry, so these people turned and rushed towards their helpless companions next to them! After a burst of punches and kicks, nearly a hundred imperial camp sergeants and Jiang Hua volunteers were finally pushed behind the battlements and began to prepare to attack the enemy's advance troops who were frantically climbing up the ladder!
"One, two, three, throw it!" Wearing dark red uniforms and iron helmets, Chiyang was responsible for the first warriors who were all elite warriors recruited from other worlds by Kang Lin's resources and meritorious deeds. They bit steel knives. , with a vine shield on his head, climbing up the three to five meter high mountain wall like an ape! After seeing this, the Goryeo defenders, under the command of officers and veterans, drew their bows, tightened their swords, and made all preparations for the war! Next, a magical scene happened. When those ferocious "Japanese pirates" climbed to the end of the bamboo ladder, they didn't rush to climb up the city wall. Instead, they threw out the smoking paper in their hands. Barrel bomb! So the next moment, the black gunpowder in the oil paper bag exploded violently. The lead bullets, iron nails, and broken porcelain fragments inside began to scatter on the top of the city with the help of gunpowder gas. In an instant, more than ten or twenty people were scattered. A Korean defender fell to the ground, and then, under the cover of thick smoke, the Chiyang pioneers pressed against the stone wall at the crenellation of the mountain city, turned over with a kite, and rushed up to the low wall of Jinjing Mountain City!
"Zuo Sanlang, lead the people to rush to the right, and the others rush to the left with a certain person. Let's drive all the cowardly Korean sticks off the city wall, open the city gate, and march into the city with a large army!" The fifth post of the second team of the Chiyang Infantry Army The sentry commander Hu Dacheng stretched out the iron arm guard of his left hand to block the diagonal sword of the Korean soldier. Then he swung the steel sword of his right hand forward fiercely, instantly cutting down the enemies in front of him. Then, more and more " "Japanese pirates" followed him and rushed towards the Korean defenders like a wave! They have iron armor, helmets, muskets, cannons, swords and halberds that are ahead of the Koreans. They have stronger physiques than the Koreans due to long hours of hard work and meals. The most important thing is that after a short period of training, they have abilities that are difficult for the Koreans to match. The degree of organization! Therefore, as soon as the battle began, the Goryeo defenders, who had an absolute numerical advantage, were pushed back by them! At this moment, the consequences of valuing civility over martial arts, eating empty wages, drinking soldiers' blood, and enslaving soldiers have completely erupted. The scrawny and unwary imperial camp soldiers and Jianghua Yiyong are no match for the wolves and tigers of the "Japanese pirates". Moreover, the weapons in their hands were old products from more than ten or even decades ago, so they collapsed decisively after paying the price of more than a dozen casualties! Although Jin Qingyuan's soldiers fought desperately with the elites of the tiger-catching army, the ordinary soldiers and volunteers who made up the majority of the defenders could not withstand the pressure and became shameful deserters. So Kang Lin's soldiers only had a cup of tea. In just a short time, the resistance of the Koreans was broken through from the front. The poor Koreans could only retreat while fighting, retreated to the city to regroup, and started street fighting with the invading enemies!
