Chapter 68 Feng Shui Gunner

(The second update is arriving, ask for red tickets!)

Let's not talk about the chaotic scene in the village. Xiao Tianjian outside has already put on a posture and is about to start attacking Zhuangzi. This time, he first sent his men to collect enough door panels, bed boards and other things as a big shield, walking in front to cover the bullets of bows, arrows and muskets, and provide cover for the people behind him, and Xiao Tianjian took over. Lessons learned from yesterday, in order to improve the defense of these big shields, some broken bedding collected from the tenant's home will be wet with water and applied to these big shields. In this way, the bulletproof ability of these wooden shields will be greatly improved. This move was learned from the Eighth Route Army of later generations. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army beat the devil's bunker. , the Eight Immortals table is wrapped in a wet quilt and rushed to the devil's bunker, which can effectively play a bulletproof role, not to mention the bullets to deal with the muskets of this era! Although in this way, the big shield has become much heavier, but as long as it can save his life, who cares about this!

After arranging the cover, Xiao Tianjian let those with muskets and bows and arrows follow closely. With the cover of the big shield, he released guns and arrows to suppress the firepower of Zhuang Ding on the Zhuang wall.

And the newly merged people, whether it is Wang Tianlong's old department or those tenants, carry earth bags and wood and other things, follow the big shield in front of them, attack next to the trench, and continue to fill the trench.

Although this method is stupid, it is still effective. Only by breaking through the trench can they get close to Zhuangmen. Otherwise, they can't get through this trench alone, let alone take down Zhuangzi.

At present, Xiao Tianjian didn't think of a good way. He could only use this stupid method to fight Fan Jiabao. After a lot of tossing and turning, all kinds of things have been arranged.

With his order, dozens of men carrying big shields immediately set out, walked in front of them and pushed towards the trench. The rest of the people immediately followed these big shields and rushed up together.

As soon as the Zhuang Dings saw that the pole had begun to move, they were all ready. As soon as the pole outside entered their range, they immediately began to shoot guns and arrows.

I only heard a ping-pong sound on the wall. The big shield in the hand of the person walking in front of the shield immediately popped. The bullet of the musket hit it and was immediately blocked by the wet cotton quilt on it. It could not penetrate these big shields at all. The people hiding behind were much safer. In this way, Zhuang Ding could not do it. Stop them from moving forward.

The person who raised the shield still carried the big shield tenaciously, pushed forward step by step, covering the people behind him and followed them. This scene was obviously much more orderly than when Wang Tianlong commanded. Although Zhuang Ding worked very hard to shoot arrows and guns, the overall threat to the people outside was not very great. Soon the big shield It was moved outside the trench. With Xiao Tianjian's order, the dozen musketeers and archers immediately stood up from behind the big shield, aimed a little, and opened fire on the wall.

Before leaving, these musketeers were required to do the loading, so after arriving here, they all raised their muskets without any trouble. The seven guns were very competitive this time, and all of them sounded at once, but there was no explosion. In addition, several inferior archers cooperated with them to shoot arrows, but they overturned at once. The two Zhuang Ding on the Zhuang wall made the Zhuang Ding exclaim and quickly lay under the women's wall one after another, and suddenly did not dare to show their heads.

"Don't be nervous! Reload! It doesn't matter if you slow down. Just don't make a difference!" Xiao Tianjian still followed everyone this time and rushed to the front with a big shield, which was also the only way he could mobilize his morale at present. Otherwise, the new guys behind him would not dare to take the risk and boldly rush forward.

When he saw that the muskets released the gun, he shrank behind the shield and reloaded it in a hurry. Xiao Tianjian also saw that these people usually seriously lacked training. Although they would make this thing, they were all unskilled, and it was even easier to make mistakes in this busy schedule. Maybe someone would install more gunpowder. It was difficult not to blow up this rag, so he quickly comforted them and asked them not to panic.

With Xiao Tianjian's words, these gunmen are really much more stable, and at the same time, they are a little moved. If it were Wang Tianlong's words, I'm afraid that they will not only not comfort them at this time, but also beat and scold them again. They must be urged to hurry up.

After these people calmed down, they no longer panicked when they filled in. They began to clear the reload in an orderly manner and charge...

With effective fire support, it is much safer for those who are responsible for filling the trenches in the future. They carry all kinds of things on their backs, rush to the edge of the trenches in one breath, leave things and immediately run back. The speed is in order, and there is no chaotic scene like yesterday, and some people even shout loudly. He shouted something to work hard and so on.

Originally, the trench had been filled in yesterday, and some of it was dug up by Zhuang Ding at night, but after all, Zhuang Ding was also afraid of death. It was rough at night, and the damage to the place that had been landfilled was not serious. It was just two back and forth, and this trench was filled again and widened.

When the Fan family in Zhuang saw the scene outside, they were even more anxious. They desperately urged those Zhuang Ding to get up and shoot guns and arrows, and repeatedly emphasized the reward.

Instead, Zhuang Ding and others began to get up and resist again. The gunshots on both sides of Zhuangzi rose and fell one after another. After half an hour, the two sides could be said to have their own injuries. Relatively speaking, the people below were still more casualties. There is nothing they can do. Who put them in an unfavorable position? ! However, in general, this kind of price is acceptable to Xiao Tianjian.

Seeing that a section of the trench had been filled in and the channel was opened, Xiao Tianjian roared, and everyone immediately retreated.

After Xiao Tianjian checked, there were less than five casualties in the trench this time, and only one died. The rest were minor injuries and were handed over to Lv Langzhong for treatment. It is estimated that there is no danger. The cost of this kind of casualties is indeed completely bearable. It did not cause any blow to their morale, but on the contrary, It was a little more boosted, but Zhuangzi also injured two or three people and almost tied.

This made everyone feel more at ease. It seems that the gap between organized and unorganized is indeed huge. I'm afraid it's Xiao Tianjian who has gained the most. Just now, when he led people to cover the trenches, he commanded seven musketeers to shoot together. As a result, he knocked down two Zhuang Ding on the wall. Others didn't realize anything. But Xiao Tianjian immediately realized a very important problem.

That's the problem of the tactics of musket application in this era. Both the inside and outside of the village are equipped with muskets, but yesterday, the firemen on both sides fought separately. Whoever wants to fire, the result is not ideal. Today, as soon as the war starts, Xiao Tianjian accidentally hit it. He commanded these musketeers to make a volley to suppress the opponent's firepower. As a result, the effect of the volley was very good. He pressed Zhuang Ding under the female wall of the wall and knocked overturned two Zhuang Ding. Then, after turning to fighting separately, the musketeer basically did not achieve any good results.

This made Xiao Tianjian suddenly understand why when watching movies, when the Western army was fighting, the musketeers foolishly and neatly lined up in several rows, and then collectively opened fire at the same time! It turns out that collective volley is the most powerful way for the muskets of this era. A single scattered fire can't play a good role at all, and it is also a waste of ammunition.

This experience is undoubtedly a very important experience for Xiao Tianjian. What has not been tested in actual combat, even if he knew it before, he would not be deeply impressed.

"The musketeers and archers are coming!" Thinking of this, Xiao Tianjian immediately shouted.

After hearing Xiao Tianjian's cry, the musketeers and archers did not dare to neglect them. They hurried to Xiao Tianjian, but they were all newcomers and had no experience in lining up. They huddled together and carefully waited for Xiao Tianjian to speak to them.

Xiao Tianjian has no time to take care of their queue problem at this time. This is something to talk about later. He immediately said to these dozen people, "You all heard it clearly! When you go up and fight later, you all keep me firmly in mind. After loading, you must listen to my instructions, including the archers. You must not shoot and shoot randomly. You can only fire together according to my instructions! Don't ask why, just listen to me! If someone dares to fire without authorization, be careful to serve with a military stick! Did you hear that?"

These people dared not listen and nodded one after another to agree.

"And more! I know you don't practice enough! But don't panic, especially when loading, it's better to install less gunpowder than to pack too much in a panic. This is for your good! It doesn't matter if you slow down, but you have to be safe! Slow work and fine work, you all know this! Remember it all for me!" Xiao Tianjian then told them.

These people nodded and agreed again. They agree with this very much. The musket is not safe, and no one wants to be hurt by the bomb. This bomb usually hurts the face, and if not, they will blind their eyes. Therefore, Xiao Tianjian asked them to do this, and they are very happy to listen to it.

"What's more, who is usually responsible for fiddling with the tiger squat gun? Stand up!" Xiao Tianjian asked them again.

A thin middle-aged man with a yellow beard on his chin with a musket stood up and quickly answered, "If you go back to the plate, it's a small tube!"

Xiao Tianjian took a look at this person. He didn't have a good impression of this person. On the whole, he had an impression, that is, obscene and very obscene. He always felt that this person's eyes were flashing and not like an honest person, but he also knew, "What's your name? What did you do before?

The man quickly bowed his waist and replied, "Go back to the plate!" The little one is called Huang Shengqiang! It used to be... It used to be! Hey hey! This doesn't sound good! I used to show people feng shui!"

"Palm plate, this is not looking at feng shui! This man used to specialize in digging ancestral tombs!" Someone answered behind Huang Shengqiang and said in a sarcastic tone.

Xiao Tianjian suddenly understood that Huang Shengqiang turned out to be a tomb thief. No wonder he was hesitant and didn't want to say anything. The reputation of the grave robber was really too bad. He was not popular anywhere. Ordinary people looked down on people who did this business at all, so when everyone looked at Huang Shengqiang, they squinted and looked at him. I don't like his posture.

Huang Shengqiang was very unhappy that someone exposed his background. He turned his head and stared at the speaker fiercely and scolded, "I didn't dig your ancestral grave. What the hell are you talking about?"

Xiao Tianjian immediately shouted, "Shut up! Brother Huang, what did you do before? I don't care, and I won't look down on you for this. In a moment, I'll give you this tiger squat gun. You aim at me! It's up to you whether you can pour it in this time!"

Huang Shengqiang didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly nodded and agreed, "Don't worry, as long as the palm plate gets down the suspension bridge, the small iron will definitely blow open the Zhuang door!"

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "It's so good! I'll give you five people. You take them to prepare. Once the suspension bridge is lowered, you can shoot at Zhuangmen for me! Open the door!"

Huang Shengqiang quickly answered and happily ran with the five people arranged for him by Xiao Tianjian to start preparing the tiger squat gun, waiting for Xiao Tianjian to lead the suspension bridge down.
