Camel City!
The military commanders Yang Shunren, Wu Wei, Sun Yi and others looked at Tuocheng in the distance with pride on their faces.
Camels kneel on the ground, their legs are tied and restrained to prevent them from running around. The camels' gentle temperament, tall stature and super load-bearing capacity are the keys to successfully building a camel city.
But the construction of Camel City was not easy. Yang Shunren and others did not know what Camel City was, and they only had the drawings given by Zhu Yunwen. In order to build a camel city, Yang Shunren led a group of people to study camels. During that time, many people slept in camel pens.
What is the principle of the camel city, what materials are used for the utensils, how much weight can the camels bear, how to install the utensils to ensure that they will not be easily destroyed by external force, and how to protect the fragile camels.
There are too many problems, but these are all small problems in the eyes of Yang Shunren and others. The most difficult problem is to build a camel city! It is easy to put iron armor on one camel, and it is also easy to install tall equipment on two camels. But the problem is that the camel city is not the independence of individual camels, which can just stand there alone. What it needs is thousands and thousands. Thousands of camels together!
The most difficult thing is how to connect the equipment between camels to avoid the camel getting up here and the camel lying down there, with heavy equipment pressing on part of the camel.
Because of this incident, all the colleagues in the Bingzhan Bureau were worried about gray hair. It was not until one day when they went to the Guozi Jianjiang Academy for advice that they found a solution and created an appliance connector, a two-section shaft that can move.
With this kind of shaft connection, when the middle camel gets up, even if the camels on both sides don't get up, there will be no pressure on the camels on both sides because the middle camel lifts up the utensil, and the shaft will bend, forming a transition.
This kind of shaft is made of pure iron, and the middle connecting part is an iron ball, which also solves the turning problem of Camel City. The camel is covered with heavy iron armor on the outside, and the equipment it carries on its back is four feet high and nearly one foot long, similar to a large rectangular box. The walls of this equipment are quite thick, almost one foot thick, from the outside to the inside. They are cowhide, thick iron, ironwood, thick iron, and cowhide. The total weight is nearly three hundred kilograms!
It can't be penetrated by powerful crossbows, impenetrable by swords and guns, and can even block the fragments of Crouching Tiger Cannon and grenades. It can be said that its defense power is amazing.
In order to ensure that the appliance is stable and will not fall over despite being charged, grooves are set up on both sides of each appliance. Thick wood can be supported on the inside and stuck in the groove. In addition, the appliances are connected to each other and hit one appliance. The force will be spread and dispersed to other instruments. If you want to hit it with brute force on the outside, it will not be easily destroyed.
With the camel city built, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had the confidence to confront the cavalry in the wilderness and win! As long as there is a city and gunpowder, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are extremely powerful. To Zhu Di, to this army, they will be invincible!
Zhu Di launched a counterattack. This time, the scale of the counterattack exceeded the expectations of Gesuyedin, Muhammad, Shaharul, and Miransha, and exceeded all Timur's expectations!
Facing the sudden appearance of Camel City, Gesuyedin, Shaharul, and Miransha all adopted the same response strategy, which was to attack!
Levi heard Gesuyedin's order to charge, and rushed forward with a group of cavalry. The front had already begun to contact Camel City!
Suddenly, spears stretched out from the gaps between the implements, piercing the necks of the horses and the cavalry.
Leather armor! Ming sergeants stuck their heads out one after another, and fired their crossbows directly at the cavalry's heads!
At such a close distance, once a powerful crossbow arrow hits the head, not to mention the unsuspecting light cavalry, even the protective gear on the head of the heavy cavalry will not be able to withstand it! Levi saw rows of sergeants being shot dead by Ming in an instant, and a trace of fear emerged in his heart, but in an instant, it was replaced by anger!
There was a corpse lying on the ground. It was a childhood friend and a brother for many years, but on his head was a crossbow arrow shot by a Ming sergeant!
He died miserably and hideously!
"kill!"
Levi raised his spear and rushed over, but there was no enemy in front of him, only something dark like a city wall!
Where does this spear thrust?
Several more sergeants died beside him. Levi went crazy and stabbed the tool with his spear. Ding ding, it just couldn't be pierced! A Ming Dynasty sergeant popped up and fired a crossbow arrow from his hand!
Levi felt his cheek being torn open, and he screamed and fell under the horse. At this moment, a spear came out from the bottom of the camel city and pierced Levi's neck!
Gesuyedin looked at the unmoving Tuocheng and saw his sergeants dying in batches on the way to attack. He couldn't help being furious and ordered the heavy cavalry to charge! The piled corpses blocked the charge of the cavalry. The heavy cavalry could not increase its speed and had insufficient impact. They could only rely on a suit of armor to offset the damage, but they could not attack at all.
Even if someone cleared away the corpses and cleared the road, the heavy cavalry could not break through the defense of Tuocheng when they arrived. When the heavy cavalry and light cavalry were mixed and piled up near Tuocheng, the sergeants of the fifth military camp of the Ming Dynasty took action one after another. , each strong sergeant hid behind the camel city, opened the wooden boxes one by one, took out the long-handled firearm-hand grenade from the wooden box, and then moved forward a few steps.
The shield hand held up a thick and strong push shield to help the bombardier to block the rain of arrows falling from the sky. The bombardier pulled out the fuse of the grenade and activated the flint. He saw smoke coming out from the bottom and quickly stood up. The push shield above his head was instantly removed. , the bombardier threw the grenade violently, more than fifty steps away, and more than ten steps closer!
The arrow fell and killed a Ming bombardier. The grenade immediately fell to the ground. Wang Zhongliang, a shield-throwing sergeant with quick hands and quick eyes, quickly picked up the grenade and threw it out. As soon as the grenade was thrown out, before it fell into the cavalry, I heard an explosion and it exploded in mid-air!
Wang Zhongliang took a look and saw that the grenade exploded in the air, killing and wounding five cavalrymen. He couldn't help shouting: "Brothers, after pulling the grenade open, count two before throwing it out! Let them explode in the air. !」
The sergeant on the side trembled after hearing this. Damn it, do you know that throwing a grenade too late will kill someone...
Wang Zhongliang was very brave. He pulled a sergeant to hold the shield for him, grabbed a grenade, and after pulling it out, he sneered at the outside of Tuocheng. The shield-pushing sergeant on the side wanted to run away!
After two sounds, Wang Zhongliang threw the grenade, and it exploded in mid-air seven or eight steps away. The fragments were scattered like flowers, and a bloody mist exploded!
Grenades were constantly thrown from Tuocheng. Both the heavy cavalry and the light cavalry that attacked Tuocheng suffered huge losses, and this was only the first round of counterattack by the Ming army!
In the Chinese army camp, tens of thousands of bow and arrow phalanxes have been divided into
Scattered everywhere and started throwing long arrows! Black arrows were like dark clouds, flying out from the inside of Camel City over and over again. However, the large number of light cavalry did not have much protection, and countless people were shot to death by the rain of arrows!
What made Gesuyedin feel trembling was that because of the Ming Dynasty's defeat, the cavalry charge was too fast, and there were many people vying for military glory. Many cavalry swarmed in front, which once caused crowding. Now it's better, and they can't get away even if they want to turn around!
Some cavalrymen still held bows and arrows in their hands, but they were already killed by the Ming Dynasty's arrow rain!
Some cavalrymen simply dismounted and hid under the horses' bellies. As a result, they were trampled by the injured horses and were seriously injured! Some cavalrymen charged with shields, but were severely injured by the hateful firearms!
One hundred and fifty steps outside Camel City became a meat grinder on the battlefield. Groups of soldiers were killed, and human corpses and war horse corpses were scattered everywhere!
Gazouyedin watched this scene, his heart was bleeding, but what could he do at this time, the army had already arrived, and Timur was watching from behind, so he could only rush over!
The corpse blocked the road. Gesuyedin remembered the weakness of Daming firearms and ordered a thousand sergeants to dismount their horses and charge. Once encountering firearms, they would lie down on the ground and crawl forward!
But time has changed, and when this group of sergeants tried their best to fight forward, they encountered arrows, grenades that exploded in mid-air and even on the ground, and were directly shot through or blown to death on the ground. I can’t even get up!
Ming's arrows seemed to be inexhaustible, and they were thrown round after round! The area almost 150 steps outside Camel City has been cleared!
The rain of arrows stopped, but the heavy snow did not stop.
Countless corpses were spread on the ground, with blood flowing gurglingly. It was steaming and the northwest wind was much weaker, leaving only the heavy snow dancing quietly.
Gesuyedin looked at ***, and ***'s eyes were a little cold.
What was supposed to be a smooth pursuit battle has now turned into a tough battle! When did the city appear, how did the Ming soldiers retreat, and how did they seal the city? ***Know nothing!
But it is obvious that Ming Dynasty has a line of defense that is difficult to conquer, and they are trying their best to use long-range weapons to kill their own sergeants!
"You can only rush!"
*** also knows that the matter has reached this point and it is impossible to retreat. The general attack has begun and all the troops have been pressed. If they are defeated by the Ming Dynasty, will the morale of the army still exist? Who has the courage to fight next time?
Must fight, must win!
The battlefield in front of us is already full of mourning, dying horses, dead sergeants, seriously injured soldiers with no one to treat them...
There are so many corpses that the cavalry charge has been seriously affected, and it is impossible for the war horses to step on the corpses all the way!
*** pointed in the direction of Camel City, gritted his teeth and said: "Arrange the sergeants to pile up the corpses on the edge of Camel City, and let our people crawl over and fight in! Destroy Camel City and kill the Ming sergeants. Only in this way can we There is hope of winning!"
Gesuyedin knew this truth and understood that this was a method, but the problem was, if you were far away, the Ming Dynasty's bows and arrows were too powerful, and if you were closer, the Ming Dynasty's firearms were too powerful, so how should you charge?
let sergeant
Dismount, charge with a shield, this is the best way!
Gesuyedin has no choice but to do this. This is the only way to break the deadlock!
Duke became the vanguard of a team of 5,000 men, shouted "For the Sultan", held a shield and started charging with a spear! The Ming Dynasty's arrow rain struck again, and each sergeant quickly used a shield to block it. Some sergeants were shot and fell to the ground due to improper defense and because the shield was not big enough!
"No one can retreat, the Sultan is watching us, kill me!"
Duke shouted!
The sergeant beside him screamed and ran, constantly passing over dead bodies and horses, charging towards Camel City!
Ruizhen followed Duke and charged. As Duke's most valiant subordinate, Ruizhen charged at the front. The arrows came without even looking at them. The shield in her hand just flew aside. It seemed that all the arrows were avoided. This person allowed him to rush twenty steps to Camel City unscathed!
A grenade flew out. Ruizhen's eyes narrowed and he jumped into the air. His shield knocked the grenade away. The grenade flew into Camel City and exploded. Two Ming sergeants were killed on the spot and three sergeants were injured!
