Chapter 2 Gunfire Flying

It was not until midnight that they arrived at the east gate of Red Earth City. Before that, they had already heard the rumble of cannons in front of them.

Until this moment, the sound of gunfire from the west was still like thunder, and the earth under his feet kept trembling.

Hearing the news, Yu Donghai's face was covered with dust. He looked at the full carriages behind Su Yong in surprise and asked in disbelief, "Is this... artillery?"

Su Yong nodded and had ordered his subordinates to start preparing for loading and unloading.

"Mr. Hong is on the west gate wall of the front line," Yu Donghai looked at the two women under the lights curiously and couldn't help awe: "General Su, have you... brought your family?" Before, he was in a hurry in the capital, but he didn't know whether Su Yong had a family or not.

At this moment, looking at these two women close to Su Yong, I think it is undoubtedly his family.

Su Yong did not say anything, because these two people were indeed entrusted to him by the Eighth Prince, and they also had the identity of a princess. He just said flatly, "General Yu, please arrange these two people, and we will rush to the front line immediately. General Xiao, integrate the team immediately.

Yu Donghai was shocked. General Su was really noble and great, and he was really bold and full of the idea of victory. He did not dare to hesitate and quickly ordered the Guards to take them to the most heavily defended rear government yard in Red Earth City.

There are almost all the families of senior officials in all places, including a tall building overlooking the border city.

And Xiao Changfeng also shouted loudly and began to rectify the queue.

They quickly pushed the loaded and unloaded guns up from the narrow slope of the city wall, and listed them at a good distance.

When Su Yong and Commander Hong met and saw the situation outside the city, he couldn't help but be shocked.

The soldiers of the Golden Tiger Army are completely resisting the other party's progress by bows and arrows at this moment. The remaining artillery shells have already been burned out, and the in the bore of the two cannons also have cracks that can no longer be used, and the military equipment department on the side of Hongtu City, under the other side's brazen attack the next day, almost still Unable to catch up with the start of work, the whole line was sent to support the front line.

That is, relying on their large number and the location of the clay high city, they can stick to it until now. However, Su Yong looked at this moment that many walls had been hit by the other side, and it was only because of the solid construction that the soldiers could continue to guard it tenaciously.

And in front of them, the previous traps had been bombarded by countless artillery of the other party for several rounds, and they were blown up completely. Even the nearby bunkers were almost bombarded by the other party's powerful artillery.

"However, if it hadn't been for these bunkers, the Red Earth City might have been lost." Commander Hong looked extremely tall under the light of the gunfire. He slapped Su Yong on the shoulder and said, "I finally waited for you. You really didn't disappoint. It came faster than I expected."

"Good to come." Old man Hong squinted at the Yanlong replica artillery that began to be arranged on the wall, and said in a low voice.

Outside their city, countless giant wheels stand like mountains on the sea. Near them, it is the place where they originally arranged traps. There is a main gun almost every ten meters, and there are two slightly smaller secondary cannons next to them. Under those brackets, there are dense red foreigners lying down, and I don't know how many at a glance.

Although this long row of artillery is not as long as the wall of Hongtu City, it is almost covered with nearly ten miles around Ximen. I'm afraid there are thousands of main guns alone.

And in the middle of these countless cannons and bunkers, there are countless arrows inserted. Occasionally, shells are fired, destroying and smashing the arrows. However, without waiting for the Red Fan people to take a step forward, the land that has just been cleared will immediately fall countless arrows, and the red people who rushed forward with a fluke mentality will be nailed here forever.

On the ground that had already turned into a piece of dust, I don't know how many shells and arrows have fallen. The originally hard rock there, even the molecules have been broken several times.

Whenever a batch of arrows pass by, or a round of artillery rings, the dust on it immediately surges up again, until it is filled with the sky into a layer of red and yellow, just like a curtain to cover the heaven and earth.

Through it, the soldiers of Yanlong can faintly see the giant cannons. Through it, the red people can also faintly see the thick wall of the high city in front of them.

The two sides are constantly fighting across this curtain. The Red Fan people can't cross the range of the Yanlong people's bows and arrows, but their main guns have begun to destroy the bunkers outside the Red Earth City, which is about to shake the foundation of the Red Earth City.

At this moment, it is a life-threatening moment.

Because the bow and arrow of the Yanlong soldiers are not strong enough, the loss is far below the opponent's shell. If it goes on like this, without waiting for the other party to break the city, he will be unable to support it because of the lack of ammunition.

And Su Yong, at this moment, these nearly 100 cannons have undoubtedly played a great role.

This effect is not only reflected in the attack, but more importantly in the deterrent.

After his own observation and analysis, the red fan has learned that the cannonballs of several cannons that were swept away by the other party have been burned, and the other party has never heard the cannon, which undoubtedly proves that the other party has not been able to imitate his cannon.

Their uninterrupted round of attacks for several consecutive days was to seize the moment when the Yanlong people could not imitate the artillery in time, because they knew that in time, they would lose the opportunity to plunder forever.

If they see the gunfire flashing on the Yanlong city wall again and hear the more dense gunfire than before, I don't know how they will feel?

That's a fatal shock. It was a fatal blow to their confidence, which would dissipate the bombardment of all their sleepless efforts in the past few days.

At this moment, in the continuous shining firelight under the city, the dark chambers of nearly a hundred guns have been obliquely erected, aimed at the red and black night outside.

Although Yanlong's replica cannon is not as accurate as the other side, it is as powerful as the other side. At this moment, relying on the high wall, the range is undoubtedly a little farther than the other side, because the trajectory of the shell gliding in the air has been completely different because of the starting point.

That's what the so-called higher urine stands, although the gun is still that gun.

The arrows that Yanlong has been sprinkled like raindrops are a little thinner, and some soldiers of the Red Marine Brigade can't help but prepare to run out again.

Colonel Smith held the tattered pipe tightly and gestured to the adjutant beside him: "The Yanlong people have been fighting for the past few days, and there are not many bows and arrows available. He ordered all the members of the first column of the Marine War to prepare." Naturally, the resistance on the opposite wall can't escape his eyes.

These eyes, which have not been closed for two days, have become red, but they are still sharp at this moment, shooting crazy light.

At the same time, Su Yong's blood knife also flashed in those extinguished fires, but his words were extremely calm and clear.

"Final correction orientation."

A long line of black whirlwind gunners kept raising steel knives to show off.

"Start loading shells."

The neat operation sounded constantly, and it was completed again in a moment.

Su Yong looked at Hong Yuanba, who was a little excited beside him, and smiled: "Next, Commander Hong will lead you to command." The old man has persisted for so many days and has been suppressed by the other party. He must be very uncomfortable.

Hong Yuanba's rough hand patted him again, and then hummed in a rude voice, "Listen to my order."

"Yes, Commander Hong." The artillerymen responded neatly.

"One, two, three, ignite."

Su Yong and many black whirlwind soldiers couldn't help but be stunned. They shouted in one, two or three in one breath. So in such a hurry?

But their hands still ignited the fire without stagnation under the command, and then covered their ears and squinted at the hazy night below.

In the distance where they couldn't see clearly, in the area where the black hole was aimed at the cannon, the soldiers of the Western Marine Brigade rushed out at this moment when the dragon's bows and arrows were sparse.

They crawled forward rapidly, and the single-bendary long gun behind them kept shaking, just like the swaying tail of the crocodile on the shore.

These soldiers squinted and ignored the dust in front of them. Their gray and yellow clothes were very well hidden in the dust. But they don't know what road is ahead.

The next moment, suddenly countless loud noises exploded, and the gray wall in front of it was as bright as day in an instant, and suddenly sparks in the night sky.

When these marine soldiers felt the trembling of the land below, they raised their heads doubtfully. It was not clear that it was the artillery fire fired at them by the Yanlong people.
