Chapter 77: Yingzhou War 3
Do the Tari people have such a plan? Isn't it because of the return of the cannon! At that time, it was unfavorable to attack many high-walled cities in the Southern Song Dynasty with this "gun", and it was famous because Kublai Khan found a Persian military craftsman to make a giant stone thrower under Xiangyang City. The capture of Xiangyang should be the number one meritorious official. Therefore, this return gun is also called "Xiangyang cannon".
I didn't expect that after two or three hundred years, the Tart came to attack with this thing. This stone thrower not only throws some huge stones, but also wraps a coarse linen cloth full of fire oil on the rocks and adds gunpowder. Once it passes through Mars, it burns brightly and is immediately thrown into the city with the intention of igniting all combustible things in the city.
The main wall of the city wall was not willing to show weakness, and 20 copper fires also fired solid bombs and iron shells into the city. Solid bullets, as the name implies, are familiar with solid iron bullets, while iron shell flowering bullets are a great weapon.
The iron shell flowering bomb is different from ordinary flowering bomb. The solid projectile is wrapped in a thin iron shell outside, but there is a large amount of iron sand, nails and other things between the two, and there is gunpowder in the sandwich in front of the shell. After the shell is fired, it falls to the front, or hits a hard object, the shell will It will heat up due to violent impact and friction, thus igniting the gunpowder in it. The gunpowder burns and then explodes. After blowing up this thin iron shell, the killing objects mixed in it will also spray out. For a moment, it is iron nails and sand is everywhere, which can suppress the space within 20 meters. It is full of the prototype of modern shells. These killings do not have the power to kill with a single blow, but most of the people affected will be shot open skins, and they will be permanently disabled. The serious people will also die soon after due to excessive injuries. But the greatest power lies in its deterrent effect on the morale of the enemy.
This shot really caused dozens of bruises all over the body, and bloody people rolled on the ground in pain. I understand that the heart of your Mongolian iron horse will also shake three points.
Wei Bingwen rolled and climbed under the wall. A lot of Datong brocade guards gathered here, and Du Rumian was also holding a knife to supervise the battle.
"What kind of war are you fighting!" When Wei Bingwen walked down from the horseway, he scolded in his heart when he saw him like this, "I saw you supervise the war, but I haven't seen you go up the wall!" These officials will fucking play here. If you really want to fight, you don't have to dare to go up the wall.
At this time, all kinds of artillery on the main wall were doing their best to fire all kinds of shells under the city to harvest the lives of countless tars and war horses under the city. At this time, Zhu Luan supervised the battle beside this invincible cannon. He held a single knife in one hand and a gunpowder bag in the other. The nervously urging gunner filled the gunpowder, and the gunner carried the shells.
A gunner picked up the burning velvet head and lit a filled copper fire. Then there was a loud noise, and the muzzle was full of fire, and the shells inside flew out and disappeared. A moment later, I heard the sound of cannonballs falling to the ground somewhere under the city in the distance, followed by a brief firelight and a scream. A flowering bomb came to the center of the Tatar army to blossom.
"Hahaha, good! Good fight!" Zhu Luan laughed at this, stretched out his hand and inserted the knife back into the scabbard. Unexpectedly, he took out a large scale and picked up gunpowder.
The deputy general officer Zhu Luanzhu was also originally a cannonman of the magic machine battalion. After military achievements and qualifications, he became the deputy general of Datong after countless years of great and small. Although he became a senior general, his ability when he was young has been practiced diligently and has not been abandoned. The number of bullets in this box is very clear, and how much gunpowder should be added to the gun chamber.
This box is good to pour the gunner after the next gunpowder equivalent title. The gunner was also unambiguous. He took over the gunpowder and began to fill the next step...
The 20,000 trolls in the city are not only manipulating stone throwers and carrying boulders with horses, but also sending many riders to ride and shoot under the city. But after all, this Datong wall is not a false reputation, but it is different from the nameless hillside where Wang Xun stationed this morning. Wang Xun led the army to guard with giant deer and horses. His soldiers and horses were shot dead and injured in total of more than 2,000, while the Tart was only less than 1,000, which made Wang Xun very frustrated.
The moon is hanging high, and now the battle has continued until late at night. More than 4,000 archers are still relying on the wall to compete with the tartars under the city.
The battle has lasted for a long time. The progress of the tangos is already very small. Wei Bingwen looked at it from afar and didn't look very real.
However, it can be clearly felt that the frequency of the return gun firing of the Ttars has been significantly reduced.
Cao Wei and a group of brocade colleagues gathered in a watchtower to watch the situation? It seems that the stone of the sari is not enough?!" Du Rumen, who was beside him, said a little happily.
"It seems to be true." Wei Bingwen also had to agree with this sentence. Previously, when he was still in the urn city on the west side, he heard that the return gun of the tartar was constantly firing the boulder for a moment, and he noticed that "the tartan threw the burning boulder into the city as hard as possible, and the ordinary boulders tried their best to hit the city wall." Cao Muwen was silent. He had run a lot in this moment. Now he is out of breath. When he woke up, he didn't eat anything...
Now the Datong city wall has been scarred, leaving huge potholes and huge scratches on the main wall, each of which is several meters long. And the small stack platform, the whole stack was lifted off and smashed by the thrown boulders. A huge stone, where it was smashed, the gravel was flying, the dust was high, and the soldiers around them would be stunned by a burst of tinnitus.
Now many platforms have been destroyed, and many archers have no barrier of defense, so they can only stand upright and compete with the elite Tatar riding under the city.
It was another swirling arrows, and many archers were shot by flying arrows. There were bursts of screams, and the listeners were trembling.
The artillery stack building of the main city wall is the strongest. Previously, the Tataris threw a large number of boulders here. Less than a foot below the stack, there was another huge gap, which was caused by a huge rock thrown out. Immediately when it fell on the main wall defense platform, there was only a loud noise, and the whole wall seemed to shake. More than 30 cannons on the platform buzzed with the vibration.
Zhu Luan also felt his feet shaking wildly, and suddenly the skin in his hand was thrown out. Zhu Luan staggered straight on a copper cannon before he fell down.
At this time, the stack was smashed lightly. The artillery on it was scattered and tilted everywhere. Some of the gun bodies were tilted, and some of the muzzle was tilted on one side. Then, a lot of smaller stones were thrown up.
With a roar, it happened that the roof of the main building was hit impartially by a huge stone. A huge harsh sound came, and the boulder was also not heavy. Just now, the impact happened to break the main beam of the main tower. The rattling sound came, and the whole boulder fell down with the eaves and tiles on the door.
Ah... There are still many archers and wounded soldiers resting and dressing in the tower. The boulder fell down and abruptly fell into the tower.
The scream suddenly rose, and a large of brocade guards were near the main building and saw this scene happen. Cao Muwen stared at the scene of the killing, "This...this..." Wei Bingwen also suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and now he has no time to mourn the soldiers in this room. As the boulder fell into the main tower, it was suddenly dark inside. The candle inside was smashed by the boulder in an instant. At the same time, dozens of soldiers who died inside were killed. Many soldiers were not killed by the boulder, but by the many scattered tiles that followed, broken into several beams and wood, and the broken wood fell to the ground. The threat of broken tiles under the boulder was even greater. Many soldiers were smashed to death by countless tiles, and many people fell to the ground without saying a word after being hit on the head.
Now, this dilapidated main building has become a sea of blood and a dead silence. Except for a few wailings.
After Cao Muwen was still there for a few fixed glances, suddenly a voice shouted, "What are you looking at, you guys! Hurry up and save people and see if there is anything alive!" Wei Bingwen and other brocade guards turned out to be Zhu Luan. The old deputy general now has a gray face, and his hair is also scattered. Just because he is too close to the main tower, his forehead was cut by a scattered small tile. Now he is hurriedly dressing the wound with a headscarf and shouting at Du Rumen and the others, " Hurry up! Hurry up!" After saying that, he didn't look at them much, turned back to the fort, and the two soldiers behind him also hurriedly followed. This box has no taboo in the face of Du Rumian, the head of the Datong brocade guard.
Uh... Cao Muwen took the lead in coming back from this shock, not just that this tragic scene suddenly gave him excitement. X he X! Let's go and save people!" Suddenly, he scolded loudly. It seemed that he was infected by the tension and atmosphere here. Even with a scolding, the Jinyiwei Fanzi, who were still at a loss, also came to their senses. Wei Bingwen pressed the knife handle with one hand and trotted all the way with Cao Muwen to the place where the tragedy had just happened.
Like this group of brocade guards, they are usually afraid of extortion and domineering, but when they really come to this real knife* battlefield, they immediately leaked Huang Er. Just on the wall, listening to the sound of arrows passing around, the sound was as fast as the wind, and it could not tell which was the sound of the wind blowing; which was the sound of arrows sliding through the air.
