Shamen North Island, Hulutou Mountain, Jiuzhang Cliff where hundreds of households live.
"Fourth uncle, please hold the handle of the gun steady and aim it at the top of the city. Third son, prepare the blunderbuss for your mouth. Xiaoyong, light the fire..."
Feicheng Pao, a small-caliber artillery commonly used by the Ming army, has a total length of three feet and five inches (112 centimeters), a gun body of one foot (33 centimeters), a charge of ten taels, and a bomb weight of one pound and six taels. The effective range is two hundred and twenty steps! Because it is small and exquisite, easy to carry, its power is also so-so. Therefore, Chiyang's night troops and front-line combat troops are all equipped. Take it out now, it is Commander Jia Liujia who is angry that the flag army of Jiuzhangya Baihu Station ruined his good deeds, and wants to teach these blind bastards a lesson with blooming cannonballs!
"Bang!" So, after a burst of intense loading, aiming, and ignition, the small barrel of the flying cannon finally sprayed out thick smoke, orange flames, and a flaming shell. ! Seeing this situation, the flag troops guarding the city couldn't help but feel like they were dead. They just wanted to defend the enemy at the top of the city, but they found that the sneak attackers below the city silently took out a new toy! That damn small cannon, similar to a fire door gun, instantly shot out a flaming shell after the user tinkered with it! The officer leading the flag army dared to swear on his own butt that it was definitely not a good thing. If his guess was correct, it should be the paper-wrapped explosive bombs commonly used by the Ming army!
"Boom!" He guessed correctly, it was a paper-wrapped explosive bomb. Unfortunately, there was no reward! Not only was there no reward, on the contrary, the exploding bomb that successfully exploded caused a bloody storm among the crowd! The huge shock wave, flying lead bullets, and iron nails caused heavy casualties to the defenders in an instant, and they lost most of their combat effectiveness! In order to achieve better results, the cruel sneak attackers even mixed a small amount of croton, wolfsbane, and lime into the explosive bullets! Therefore, as the explosive bomb was successfully detonated, a large amount of choking poisonous mist also rose rapidly from the city wall!
"Okay, let's fight like this! Fourth uncle, third son, Xiaoyong, let's give those soft-footed shrimps another round to refresh themselves and wake them up..." Seeing the first shell fired from his own artillery, he fired The defenders caused so much trouble that Jia Liu couldn't help laughing excitedly. To be honest, he didn't expect that such a one-foot-long small iron pipe, loaded with enough gunpowder, could accurately launch a one-and-a-half kilogram explosive bomb onto a two-foot-high city wall. According to him, Come on, this kind of artillery that looks more like a toy than a weapon can be fired successfully, even if it is worthy of its compact barrel!
"Boom..." However, as the saying goes, "Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation." Just when the artillery trio was loading, aiming, and igniting in an orderly manner, the hero of the previous second suddenly changed his face! The high-quality black-powder-loaded blunderbuss somehow exploded in the short and thick barrel. The huge shock wave not only tore the pig iron barrel into pieces, but also took the closest artillery pieces with it. The trio was so bloody that they cried for their father and mother! This means that the barrel blocks the filling in the gun. Otherwise, at such a close distance, the fourth uncle, the third son, and Xiaoyong would have to die one or two!
"Fourth uncle, third son, Xiaoyong, what's wrong with you? Quick, quick, you guys, help them down quickly, call the doctor, ask the doctor to come over and take a look!" The exploding barrel of the flying cannon instantly shocked Jia Liu's subordinates. His combat power dropped from ten to five, and the first thing this guy said when he woke up was to save people! It was impossible to save people, but San'er and Xiaoyong were better off. One of them was responsible for loading the bomb, and the other was responsible for igniting the fire. They were still some distance away, but they were pushed hard by the shock wave, and their skin was scratched and bleeding. That's it. The most important thing is the fourth uncle who is holding up the flying cannon. This middle-aged man was hit by the debris all over his head. At this moment, he is holding the flying cannon's blunderbuss in his hand and is twitching and rolling on the ground. It can be seen that My scalp feels numb! The flying cannon can both injure and injure people. It is truly a double-edged sword! So when Yan Bin heard the sound and arrived with a large team of people, Jia Liu, whose arm was sprained, didn't care about dealing with his own injury. He grabbed the former's sleeve and screamed at the top of his lungs to ask the former to help save him!
"Okay, okay, Brother Jia, don't worry, I'll have them carried down right away and handed over to Dr. Xue for treatment..." Jia Liu looked at his sprained arm with an anxious look on his face, and Yan Bin, who was dressed up as a Japanese pirate leader Not daring to neglect at that moment, he immediately called over a few reserve soldiers, carefully carried the injured person down, and handed him over to the enemy of Hell for proper treatment. As we all know, he and Jia Liu were close friends for eight years, and the two of them were so close that they could almost wear the same pants. Therefore, seeing that the other casualties, both light and serious, had been moved, Commander Yan was worried about his brother's injury, so he thought He sent his own soldiers to help this guy to Dr. Xue for bandaging, but his kindness was quickly rejected by Jia Liu. The latter dragged his injured arm and said to Yan Bin with force,
"Brother, this little injury doesn't matter, let's seize the time to launch an attack on Jiuzhangya Baihu House! We have tested it for you just now. Their guards are not tight, and they were killed and wounded by us before. There are several of them, and now they are bombarding them with artillery for a while, and then sending new auxiliary troops to attack the city. Maybe they can capture this small city of 100 households..."
Boo boo boo, Jia Liu ignored the injury on his left hand and spoke very quickly to his brother Yan Bin about the defense situation of Jiuzhangya Baihu Station. At the same time, he also suggested that the latter should take advantage of the enemy's strength. Before the good opportunity comes, quickly invest your troops to attack the city, and use the minimum cost for the team to get this perfect first kill for the big boss!
"Okay, Brother Jia, just watch from the sidelines and see how my little brother avenges you!" Just do it. Yan Bin felt that his brother's suggestion was very correct, so he ordered his soldiers to wave the red and black flags. , commanding the artillery squad to move forward. At the same time, the new auxiliary troops, mostly composed of prisoners of war, also received orders to prepare for war. They each raised their guns and swords. Under the command of their respective group leaders, they began to move forward noisily. When the artillery As soon as the sound is heard, they will launch a sudden attack on the Jiuzhangya Baihu Station guarding the void!
"The distance is three hundred and twenty meters, the Weiyuan cannon is blooming, the mother-child cannon is loading, the enemy's castle is aiming, and the test fire is one (the distance is three hundred and twenty meters, the Weiyuan cannon is loading) Explosive bombs, the Folang machine is loaded with solid bullets, aim at the enemy city, and test fire one round)!" Acting in full, since Chiyang pretended to be a Japanese pirate this time, after entering the role, Yan Bin and others began to say The standard Japanese language is spoken! Of course, this guy is a native Chinese and shouldn't be able to speak Japanese, but he couldn't help but when he was traveling to sea, he met a Japanese girl in Manila who was a good friend. Next, this fellow quickly learned the Japanese language, which was not fluent. Since it was needed at this moment, it just happened to be used. However, most of the Chiyang Banner Army and reserve soldiers simply could not understand the Japanese bird language of their commanders. Therefore, this guy was accompanied by a big The voice soldier serves as the signal soldier! The newly attached army also had a fake Japanese translator, so that the new master's Japanese dialect would not confuse everyone's heads!
"The distance is three hundred and twenty meters, the Weiyuan cannon is blooming, the mother-child cannon is loading, the enemy's castle is aiming, and the test fire is one (the distance is three hundred and twenty meters, the Weiyuan cannon is loading) Explosive bombs, the Folan machine is loaded with solid bullets, aim at the enemy's city, and test fire!)" The commander's Japanese language, which was like a bird's call, sounded in the ears, and the fourteen gunners still stayed in place stupidly. They couldn't understand any reaction from Yan Bin. At the critical moment, the fake Japanese leader Qi Xiaowu roared. Only then did these guys wearing ill-fitting clothes understand that their commander asked them to reload. Aim and fire. So, under the command of their respective gunners, the main gunner began to adjust the height and angle of the gun. The assistant gunner brought the shells and muskets, and the igniter gently raised the ignition fork. Although they were not They are the most elite gunners, but in Chiyang, they fired a lot of guns, so it only took more than ten breaths of time for the four large and small artillery to be ready for launch!
"Snipe the enemy's tower, test fire with one hair, and fire the cannon (aim at the enemy tower, test fire with one shot, and fire)!" After receiving the order to fire again, the igniter immediately slammed the fork pole wrapped with the match rope towards the fire door. At! The next moment, with thick smoke and long flames, four large and small artillery sprayed out four shells with completely different images in an instant. Two solid shells weighing two kilograms directly hit the city wall, and two bloomed. When the bomb was fired, it missed as expected. It was useless if it didn't miss, because Chiyang's delay fuse technology was so poor that one fuse was either lengthened or shortened. Therefore, the explosive bombs either exploded in advance, or they fell to the ground and waited for a long time before they exploded. More often than not, they did not explode at all, and the Chiyang Banner Army could only see them shaking their heads!
"Load を続け, aim を続け, shoot 撃を続け, stop まらないでください. Weiyuan Cannon, Zimu Cannon 12 times もbeat らないでstop めてはいけません (continue) Reload, keep aiming, keep shooting, don't stop , Weiyuan cannon, Folan machine is not allowed to stop until it fires for twelve rounds)..." Looking at the pitiful detonation rate, Yan Bin felt a little sick! He is also from the artillery army. Although he has never played with the Weiyuan Cannon, he understands the basic principles, so there is really nothing he can do about the Weiyuan Cannon! Since the quality is not good, we can only use quantity to make up for it! As soon as he thought of this, this guy immediately ordered his artillery crew to continue bombarding the city head of Jiuzhangya Baihusuo!
"Japanese pirates, those people are Japanese pirates! Go and tell Mr. Qianhu that they are Japanese pirates! Fifth from the left, hurry up and ring the gong to notify the whole city that Japanese pirates are coming!"
