Chapter 699 Fierce Battle

On the hill bag on the left, in a small flat open space, more than a dozen soldiers kept feeding the cannonballs to the general. A soldier's mouth was excited: "It's really enjoyable. It's like throwing a boulder into a chicken nest, and the chicks can't run away. This bombardment killed more than a dozen tartar soldiers. It was the first time I saw it. It was really pleasant.

"Cut, what is this? At that time, Zhang Qianhu took us to fight on the west cliff ferry. Dozens of people were killed and injured in one shot, which is not inferior to this.

"I didn't see what you said. Besides, it was our Ming army. How can it be fun to bombard these dogs and tards this time?"

"That's right. Look at these guys with small braids and hair, and they are angry if they are not men or women."

A soldier who looks like a flag officer shouted, "Do your work quickly. What are you talking about? After hitting 25 shells, we will pull it. Zhang Qianhu said that if you can't finish it, don't leave. Wait for the tars to come up and open your stomach.

The soldiers quickly stopped, because the Tatar soldiers and horses below had realized that it was sporadic shelling. Hundreds of Tatars had abandoned their horses and walked around the pits on both sides of the road and attacked the hill. These dozen people could not stop them even for a moment.

Soon after the explosion, Batu realized that it was the shelling harassment of the Ming army. The sporadic rising black clouds on the hills on both sides were not incoherent, indicating that only a few firearms were bombarding. He immediately ordered his troops to lead hundreds of soldiers to attack the hills on both sides.

When the Tahriard soldiers rushed up the mountain with their eyes full of fire, a door was steaming, and the cannon with a little deformed in the bore was lying alone on the top of the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the side slope, you could see more than a dozen soldiers rolling and crawling and running away.

When he heard the sound of bombing in front of him in the rear, he thought he had fought with the Ming army. When the situation was found out, he repeatedly ordered Batu to continue to move forward. Batuben planned to send soldiers and horses to search along several small mountain bags on both sides before marching. He was urged to reorganize the army for a while.

However, the team traveled for less than a moment, and there were artillery attacks on the mountain bags on both sides. This time, there were more than two, and more than a dozen generals bombarded hundreds of shells into the front army of the tatars. Although the accuracy distance was slightly worse, it still caused more than 100 casualties.

Batu ordered people to take down the mountain bags on both sides, and saw more than a dozen deformed iron bumps and the backs of a small team of Ming soldiers who did not return to escape.

He ignored Batu's complaint and firmly believed that this was a delaying plan of the Ming army. In addition, the casualties were not large, which made Batu ignore the shelling around him and accelerate the march; Batu rushed forward, and then he was baptized by more big iron ball shells; the generals of 200 gates were relatively densely arranged near Jing On both sides of the city, the strategy of the Ming army was to shoot shells, and then abandon the cannons and run. The whole road was more than a few miles away, which caused great losses to Batu's former army. By the time of the destination, the casualties of his men were as high as 3,000; the artillery fire on this road was so painless. He gnawed off a piece of the thigh meat of the talcon army.

The anger in his heart is indescribable. Song Nan's hidden behavior makes him very unhappy. He believes that Song Nan does not deserve to be the commander-in-chief of the leading army. The two sides are equal and should fight head-on, instead of making so many tricks from the beginning of his arrival.

But at least they arrived at the predetermined location, the front army stabilized their position, and the Chinese army also arrived smoothly. The bald man took advantage of the last trace of dusk to personally choose the location of the eagle cannon. After the soldiers leveled the site, 200 eagle cannons were arranged in more than a dozen rows outside Jinglu City. The high and thick gun barrel was as terrible as a man's murder weapon, shining darkly in the twilight.

"Don't you like to make trouble? You don't like to play. Is it harassment? Let Benhan give you an insight. What is fighting? Gun, what is bombing? I want you to leave no grass and tiles in the small city of Jingluo City.

With a cruel smile on his face, he raised the flag that fired the gun in person and waved it down.

"Boom! Boom! "Wipe."

Rows of cannons purchased with a lot of money from the Russian Grand Duchy roared, and huge shells soared away with a frightening scream, leaving dazzling remnants in the dark sky. A moment later, a fire rose in the land of Jingluo City in the distance, like an electric light shining in a black cloud. The huge explosion of the shell shocked people's ears. The pungent smoke and iron thistle flying everywhere flew around, the earth was trembling and the air was burning.

The small Jingluo city was bombed by 200 shells in an instant. The streets were full of thick smoke and fire, and the houses collapsed like decay, freeing up the noisy smoke and dust of the loess. Soon after, the tall gate tower was hit by three shells. In the sound of bursting, half of the tower collapsed and a huge fire was raised. Under the deliberate bombing, the gate was destroyed and several walls collapsed into a gap. The defense of Jinglu City was useless.

"Stop." Raise your hand to signal that the shells are too expensive, and the supplies are insufficient this time. He can't indifferently vent his anger with the shells. There are still several strong cities to attack behind him. Who knows if the supplies behind can keep up, so he doesn't want to waste too many shells.

"Turu, Batu and Harhan attacked the whole army. Although the eagle cannon is powerful, the final battle still needs to be completed by my Tatar warriors. If you rush into the city, whoever catches Song Nan, the enemy commander, Benhan will give him the land, cattle and sheep, so that he can have a stronger tribe and countless jewelry beauties."

"Huh...ho..." The generals were excited, and the machete pulled out was held high, and their mouths made a strange roar before the battle.

"Kill."

More than 50,000 cavalry were divided into more than a dozen charge formations and began to run slowly and orderly on the dark open land. As the speed became faster and faster, the whole earth seemed to tremble, such as the machete held high by Lin and the shouting through the sky, making all the creatures in the world silent, even the summer insects, snakes and rats on the ground. They all curled up together and didn't dare to probe.

The charge distance of more than three miles is slightly longer, but the endurance of the horses on the grassland is amazing. They need a longer charge distance. After a thousand steps, they are already like a surging huge wave that is irresistible. Nothing can deter them. Even if there is an iron wall of fire in front of them, they can rush over and rush. Break and smash.

The fire at the head of Jinglu City burned lonelyly, and the collapsed walls and houses made a rumbling sound from time to time, but there was no moaning sound. The city was already empty. All the people and horses have been transferred out of the city. All the people have been escorted by Yang Yiqing to Guyuan two days ago. Song Nan played It is an empty city plan, but this empty city plan is more complete than Zhuge Liang's. In fact, there are only more than a thousand soldiers and horses walking back and forth in the city. In order to create the illusion of strict guarding, Song Nan had to send more than 1,000 soldiers to take risks. When the gunfire sounded, more than 1,000 soldiers quickly fled for their lives, and hundreds of them could not run through the footsteps of shells, which was also There is nothing we can do.

Now, when the torrent of rolling cavalry charged into the lonely Jinglu small city, who will stop the footsteps of the Tarans? After Jinglu City gave way, there is a flat river behind, and the eastward is Guyuan, which is the distribution center of Shaanxi soldiers and horses, materials, grain and grass. To the north is Lingzhou, Lingzhou To the north is Ningxia Town; the consequences of the loss of Jing Fu are unimaginable.

Time seems to have solidified. In this frozen and almost suffocating atmosphere, in the deterrent of horses' hoofs rolling like breaking the liver and intestines, a red signal bomb rose up in the air with a ghost-like shrill. In the southwest of Jinglu City, in a dense long grass beach, a pile of dead things covered by dead branches and barren grass suddenly resurrected. After the black oilcloth was removed, it exposed a dense honeycomb-like arm, about five feet long.

No one paid attention to the wasteland next to Jinglu City, and the cannon fire of the tars will not hit the open space for no reason. Fifty Mrs. Lu rockets are hidden here in a fan shape; the operating soldiers adjusted the direction of the muzzle of the rocket at an unusual speed and cut through the dark blue night sky with the second red fireworks. At that time, someone issued an order.

"Pray!"

The rotating machine shaft made a click sound, scratching the needle on the lint plate, emitting a dazzling spark, lighting all the fuses concentrated around the Flint, "hohoho!" The sound of the rocket launch was similar to the strange sound from the mouth of the Tatar cavalry. The slender barrel sprayed flames, and the dense cannonballs like flying locusts dragged the fiery red tail and rushed to the formation of the Tatar cavalry.

You can imagine how horrible it is, and imagine as much as possible that the flesh and blood are hit by dense fire weapons, and the damage is simply unimaginable. The thick shell of the child's arm touched the human body. Before it burst, it could penetrate the bodies of several soldiers, the terrible trauma caused by the roll, and then burst, releasing four flying iron eggs. Zi.

What's more frightening is that the Handan cavalry could not rush to the position where the rocket was fired, because they charged in the direction of Jinglu City, and the direction of the rocket gun was on their right side. In the case of speeding up to the limit, it takes a huge turning radius to step on the wasteland where the rocket gun is located, and once that, you first need to have a close contact with the dilapidated Jingluo City.

The Tatar cavalry watched their flanks being hit, allowing thousands of rockets to penetrate the formation. In just a dozen breaths, nearly 5,000 cavalrymen of the first echelon had disappeared, full of human corpses and horses, broken bones, and shells dragging the tail of fire. .

Everyone was stunned to see all this, as if the devil came to heaven and earth to devour life on the battlefield, and no one could stop it.
