Chapter 52 Stone Bridge Attack and Defense 2

A flag bearer immediately waved a green flag to Huang Shengqiang. After Huang Shengqiang saw it, he immediately scratched the mouse beard on his mouth and shouted, "Brothers, listen! "Fire!"

After listening to the order, several gunners immediately pulled out the red-hot iron braces from the charcoal basin behind them and put them hard in the fire gate on these flan cannons.

Several bursts of fire spewed out of the mouth of the gun, and several thick smoke immediately rose in front of the mound. Then the sound of the gunfire reached everyone's ears. Several iron bullets immediately flew out at a speed almost discernible to the naked eye and roared down towards the east bank of the river.

The sudden sound of gunfire scared the group of officers and soldiers who had begun to step on the stone bridge. The people walking in front of them immediately felt that the hair all over their bodies stood up and immediately stopped, including Lv Pin, who led the team to fight, was also scared. They couldn't help but stop and nervously. Look in the direction of the west of the river.

When they saw the thick smoke rising from the mound south of the Hexi Bridge, they were immediately scared. When they went to war just now, they did not see that there were artillery in the thief army on the west bank of the river at all. These guns were like coming out of the ground. Suddenly, they opened fire, and the roaring shells came from their heads. He flew straight over and fell behind them.

"It's not good! The thieves still have cannons! Hurry up and rush over!" After Lv Pin reacted, he immediately exclaimed and shouted loudly to his men.

The officers and soldiers in the front breathed a sigh of relief. They were secretly glad that these thieves were some fools. They actually hit the shells so high that they did not fall on their heads at all. In their hearts, it was said that the thieves who operated the cannons and missed the shells. After hearing Lv Pin's order, these officials who squeezed on the bridge. The soldiers did not dare to stay on the bridge. They immediately began to run towards the west bank of the river like a stimulant.

But they didn't have time to turn their heads and look back. The landing point of the shells, after a few shells flew over their heads, they hit the group of artillery arrays that had just stopped, and immediately raised several groups of dust among them, which made the officers and soldiers who operated the cannon immediately exclaim. Suddenly, several unlucky guys were shot and hit by the shells that bounced from the ground. Suddenly, they fell to the ground and scattered their limbs.

He Renlong, who was riding on the horse and standing behind to watch the battle, immediately contracted the pupils of He Renlong's eyes. His big hand clenched the whip, and the blue veins on the back of his hand jumped high and scolded, "This donkey's thief army actually hid a few cannons!" Pass the order quickly, let our cannons concentrate their firepower, and kill the artillery of the thief army first! Let's see if they have any tricks!"

Seeing that a large number of officers and soldiers had flocked to the stone bridge, it was when these soldiers confirmed that Xiao Tianjian really wanted them to block the officers and soldiers first this time, Xiao Tianjian shouted, "Zhang Bao! Withdraw your troops from both wings! Feng Gouzi brought up those nine-headed birds! Let the fireman and the archer prepare!"

Zhang Bao immediately shouted to the 300 frightened soldiers in front of him, "Remove from both sides! Hurry up!"

These three hundred soldiers who had begun to hold their will to die suddenly heard the shouting behind them, and suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief and said, 'My mother! Isn't this deliberately to scare us? Finally, let us withdraw!' So he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately followed their team generals and the captains to run from both sides of the slope.

After Feng Gouzi heard Xiao Tianjian's order, he shouted and cheered strangely. He turned around and waved and said, "Cry up the nine-headed bird to me!" The fireman and archer are ready for me!"

Lv Pin urged his officers and soldiers to speed up through the stone bridge in the team, but his eyes were always staring at the brigade of the Xingtian Army on the north side of the stone bridge. Suddenly, he saw that the hundreds of thieves who had been lined up on the north slope of the bridge were like bombing camp. They retreated to both sides. Lv Pin couldn't help sneer in his heart. "In the end, it's still a group of rabble. Before I rushed to them, they were so scared that they were going to run away!"

"Brothers, hurry up and kill the thief! The thieves are about to disperse!" A small flag official running in front of him immediately cheered and shouted the thief in the team, making his subordinates around him speed up and rush across the stone bridge.

After hearing the order, more than a dozen soldiers of Xing Tianjun, who had already been waiting under the slope, immediately carried five nine-headed birds on the slope in a group of two, quickly set up the tripod, and put the huge gun on the tripod.

The nine-headed bird they are talking about is actually a big gun. To put it bluntly, it is an oversized bird. This thing is nearly an inch in diameter, and the barrel is one and a half meters long, and weighs more than 20 catties. One person can't operate it at all. It must be used by two people to cooperate, and when firing, the gun must be mounted on a tripod. It can only be supported, so it is rarely used in the army.

Three of the five nine-headed birds equipped by Xing Tianjun were captured from Lijiazhuang at the beginning, and two were captured by the officers and soldiers in the Battle of Shifo Temple. As a powerful weapon, Xiao Tianjian will naturally not eliminate them, but directly equips them to the fireman of the soldiers. Today, he was The first start came out.

The five-shot nine-headed bird has already been ready to launch below. Each barrel is filled with more than a dozen iron bullets the size of a little finger belly. After the five firemans who operated the gun quickly set up the nine-headed bird, they pulled down the trigger together with the order of a tube with their length.

The burning fire rope fell lightly into the medicine pool with a snap, and a cloud of smoke rose in an instant. Several nine-headed birds beat violently and spit out a ball of thick smoke.

A projectile pulled like a whip to the officers and soldiers rushing across the stone bridge, and the officers and soldiers rushing in front of them immediately sounded a scream.

More than fifty steps away, the power of lifting the gun was maximized. Even the officers and soldiers who rushed to the front raised their shields, but they could not stop these flying projectiles. The projectiles hit the shield debris in their hands, and even the officers and soldiers hiding behind them could not be spared. He was beaten to splash blood and fell down.

More than a dozen swordsmen in the front row were almost swept away under this round of attack and fell to the ground one after another, exposing the officers and soldiers who rushed behind the bridge to the Xing Tianjun.

The sudden blow almost made the officers and soldiers led by Lv Pin have no guard at all. They were just immersed in the excitement that the thief army had fled. In a blink of an eye, they were knocked down by a row of nine birds, and the west area of the bridge in front of them suddenly opened up.

At this time, Lv Pin realized that things seemed to be a little wrong, because he saw rows of crowds beginning to pour out behind the opposite slope on the bridge. Unlike the group of people standing in front of the thief army just now, this group of gushed thieves was very well equipped, and everyone was not holding a dark bird in his hand. It was holding a hard bow. After they appeared on the slope, they were extremely quickly lined up in a row. The thief soldiers with bird rifles lined up in three rows. The number of people in each row was about 30 people, and they were lined up into three layers from the slope. Behind them were more than a hundred archers holding strong bows, who began to put arrows on the bows one after another. On the string.

'Faled' was the first idea that flashed in Lv Pin's mind. He almost instinctively wanted to stop his footsteps and led his troops back to the east of the bridge, but he forgot that he had just ordered his subordinates to speed up and rush across the stone bridge. Now the stone bridge is densely packed with his officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers behind him are still They are struggling to push forward, so that they have no room to turn back.

After realizing this, Lv Pin was suddenly scared into a cold sweat. He couldn't retreat. His only choice was to rush across the stone bridge as soon as possible, rush up to the dirt slope, and break up the thief army. Otherwise, he knew very well what was waiting for him.

"Don't panic, rush over! Hurry up and break them up! Kill the thief! ..." After all, Lv Pin has been fighting with He Renlong for many years, and his experience in battle is still quite rich. As soon as he found that the signs were wrong, he quickly reacted and roared in the team.

The officers and soldiers in front of him were a little stunned by the round of guns. They unconsciously stopped their footsteps and looked at the opposite side in astonishment. For a moment, they didn't know how to act. Seeing that the shield-raising knife hands in front of him were swept down, the injured colleagues were still wailing at their feet, and they were a little at a loss. In addition, there are many murderous thieves surging from the opposite slope, which makes them a little panicked.

It was not until they heard Lv Pin's roar from behind that they realized that they were waiting to die. It was too late to turn around and run. Only by rushing forward and fighting closely with the firearms and archers of these thieves could they survive, and most of them were also experienced pawns. After Bai's point, he immediately reacted and shouted "Kill the thief..." and rushed to the position where the Xing Tianjun was.

More than a hundred firemen were arranged in three columns from the bottom up on the slope, and a gun-wieled team on the left side of the first row shouted, "There are all in the first row!" Put the gun flat! Aim! ... Let it go!"

When these firemans were preparing behind the slope, they had already lit the fire rope on the bird's gun. They had been carefully blowing the fire rope to prevent the fire rope from going out. At this time, after hearing the order, they flattened the bird's gun together and pointed the mouth of the black hole straight to the direction of the bridge. Everyone put the bird's gun new The modified trapezoidal buttstock was tightly attached to the shoulder, and the cheek was attached to the buttstock, aiming at the door and the front.

The transformation of the stock makes the aiming more accurate and stable. Each gunner can aim at a target stably. With the team's order, they press the faucet together.
