Chapter 215 2
"Right, near-arrow bomb... left, near-arrow bomb..." After the shelling, the observers of several guns immediately reported the landing point of their shells to the rest of the gunners. As a gun group, the composition of the Sea Wolf Battalion has been quite perfect. Each six-pound gun is equipped with six gunners, and the gun commander is mainly responsible for adjusting the gun. The rest of the people have their own division of labor. Some are responsible for clearing the bullet, some are responsible for loading the medicine package, and some are responsible for loading the shells. When the loading is completed, several people will push the cannon into the gun position together, and then the gun commander is responsible for adjusting the artillery for aiming.
One of them observed the landing point of the shell after firing the gun and reported it to the gun commander and his companions to provide instructions for the next aiming. This division of labor is very clear. After strict training, if they cooperate closely, they can greatly improve the speed of artillery firing and shelling. Accuracy.
At this point, Yu Xiaotian is confident to compare with the artillery of any country in the world. So far, his arrangement is in the best state.
After seeing the sea wolf firing, Chu Cai's men were still shocked and quickly shrank their necks. However, when they saw that the sea wolf did not hit them, they became bold again and quickly continued to lift their shields and move forward, and even some leaders deliberately laughed sarcasticly in the crowd. Laugh at the incompetence of the sea wolf.
But they were happy a little too early. Before they could push forward for a long distance, a mass of smoke and fire appeared on the sea wolf village again.
This time, Chu Cai's old men were not so lucky. Under the shelling of the sea wolf, one of the two shields was directly hit and the other was hit by a bounce, but the result was basically the same.
The two-sided shield was almost paper-covered in front of the six-pound cannon shell. The two-sided shield was hit and burst by the shell on the spot. A guy who hid behind the shield and lifted the shield was also torn into pieces directly through the shield by a shell. The rest of the people who lifted the shield were under the huge impact. The outside flew out, and all of them vomited blood after landing, and they couldn't live.
This scared Chu Cai's men very much, because they realized that hiding behind the shield actually had no effect on the cannonball, and once the cannonball hit the shield, they were more dangerous, so they were a little panicked.
Some people stopped involuntarily, and some people even began to prepare to turn around and run away.
But now behind them, there was a burst of drums. Chu Cai was in the back and urged them to continue to speed up and rush to the bottom of the stockade and start attacking the village.
After hearing the sound of drums behind, the shopkeepers knew what this meant, so they roared and greeted their men to step forward and arched. Don't wait to be shot here. Anyway, they all know that stopping here is really looking for death. The sea wolf's cannon is so sure that they have led it. After teaching, it's better to rush over to stand here and wait for people to call one by one. After approaching the wall, you can more or less take a few hands, which is better than being beaten here.
So these shocked old men accelerated their pace again and arched the wall with the shield. Some smart people grew up their wisdom and did not dare to follow the shield again, quietly spread out to both sides.
The sea wolf's shelling operation is still ongoing. The number of new six-pounder guns on the wall here is limited, and it is not convenient to transfer more cannons in a short time, so this also made Chu Cai's men pick up a bargain.
A limited number of six-pound guns fired in turn. After a school shooting, their shelling accuracy became higher and higher. In addition, the enemy's distance was getting closer and closer, which made it easier for them to aim a little. Therefore, in the next period of time, several guns had achieved results, and the shields put together by Chu Cai Lao overnight were in their cannons. Under the attack, one after another began to be destroyed.
Almost every time the shield is hit, several shield-lifters will be shaken to spit blood and fly out, and some people hiding behind the shield will also be hit by unscrupted shells. Although these shells fly slowly as if they can reach out their hands to catch them, they carry movements. But you can still easily tear people to pieces.
There is really such an SB. When he saw a cannonball as if it was about to fall, he flew towards him. This brain-damaged guy actually raised a big axe in his hand and chopped down against the shell that was about to be exhausted, preparing for a human character to break out, and human flesh blocking the shell. .
But he only heard a click, and then looked at the guy and flew backwards. His axe didn't know where he flew in the blink of an eye. The shell hit his chest and abdomen heavily and stuck directly in his abdominal cavity. It was really blocked by him with his body, but after this guy landed, he spit out a big mouth. Blood raised his head slightly, and even reached out to touch the shell stuck between his chest and abdomen, and turned his eyes and went straight to the underworld.
More and more people began to be afraid. Seeing that the sea wolf's cannon was fierce and accurate, they were shocked and afraid. Just now, they thought that it would be safer to hide behind the shield, but now there are not many people who have such an idea. These people have dispersed one after another and dare not follow the shield.
Once these old men dispersed, more than 2,000 people spread the open space outside the stockade. It was really difficult for these six-pound guns to block them by relying on several six-pound guns.
When these old men began to rush within 200 meters outside the wall, Li Dazui ordered to stop shelling with solid bullets and ordered each cannons to replace them with grape bombs. The target was still those shields. After all, once these shields reached under the wall, they would cause them a lot of trouble, and once he After entering 100 meters, these six-pound guns will lose their ability to attack because of the problem of the shooting world.
But the distance of 200 meters is also the best shooting distance of grape bombs. This thing is much larger than the dispersion of solid bullets, but it is much more powerful than scattered bombs. It can be said that as long as the gunner does not faint, it can basically guarantee one shot.
So several six-pound guns immediately began to change into grape bombs. The next few cannons went down, and several shields were beaten to pieces on the spot, even killing and injuring many of Chu Cailao's men.
So far, Chu Cai's old man's dozens of shields were piled together at night. By the time they attacked about 100 meters outside the sea wolf wall, there were basically more than half of the rest of them on the way forward and were destroyed by sea wolf cannons. After a while, rotten wood and corpses were lost.
However, after entering a distance of about 100 meters, several six-pound guns of the sea wolf have gradually lost their function due to the problem of the shooting world. However, at this time, there are still many old Chu Cai's men rushing towards Dazhai and have not yet entered within 100 meters, so Li Dazui once again ordered all the six-pound guns to be replaced with scattered bombs. , began to bombard these old Chu Cai's men indiscriminately, and how much they can be killed. In short, they can't be idle.
Old Chu Cai's men were worried along the way. They saw that one side of the shield was destroyed by the sea wolf's cannon. On the other hand, they were cursed, but on the other hand, they had no choice but to continue to arch forward.
After entering a distance of about 100 meters, Chu Cailao's men finally got a certain amount of counter-to-hand power. Some of them came here with some small cannons and hurriedly began to set up their cannons.
Chu Cai's cannons are all old-fashioned artillery, with a low range and small range and can only be fired after approaching, so they have to run outside the big village against the sea wolf's shells to set up. Moreover, these cannons are of different shapes and the production is very crude, and even the inner wall of some guns has not been carefully filled.
And these guns are very clumsy to operate. The gun rack is a thick wooden shelf without wheels, not to mention the heavy, and many of them don't even have a cushion to adjust the pitch of the gun barrel. The gun barrel is simply fixed on the gun rack, and the high and low firing boundary cannot be adjusted. The gun frame can only be moved to adjust the left and right firing boundary. When on the ship Even some cannons are simply tied to the ship and fixed in one direction. They can only adjust the shooting boundary by relying on the movement of the ship, so there is no need to think about the * degree. The probability of hitting the enemy is very low, and it will explode from time to time.
These old men put the cannon on the ground in a panic and began to load it. Obviously, the loading method they used was not a fixed package, but also powdered gunpowder. The amount of ammunition each time depends on the personal experience of the gunner who operated the cannon. There are both iron bullets and stone shells, and Use some gravel or iron fragments to serve as shot bombs.
These cannons are very troublesome to load, and the speed is very slow. Some of Chu Cai's subordinates for a long time and can't complete the loading. It can be seen that most of these Chu Cai's subordinates seriously lack daily training.
Anyway, at this time, Chu Cai's old men began to counter their hands. In many places outside the stockade, they began to smoke and flames, and then they heard a series of gunfire.
The atmosphere on the wall of the village also became more tense. All the sea wolves hid behind the women's wall and arrows of the village wall and observed the movement of the enemy outside the village. When they saw Chu Cai's old men starting to fire cannons outside, they shrank their necks one after another.
But when these shells fell on the wall, they found that they were a little too careful. Some of the shells fired by these old men of Chu Cai's men fell on the wall and smashed the wall of the wall, but such shelling did not cause much damage to the wall, at most It was a pit on the wall. Some wooden walls were even smashed by a few pieces of wood, and even the main body of the wall was not injured.
