Chapter 43 Saving People

The battalion will immediately answer: "General, General, we can make the gunner's muzzle rise slightly, only hit the Jiannu in the back, let the refugees in front approach the wall, and then prepare a small number of dead men to rush out with Thunderbolt to intercept the slaves behind the refugees! Use Thunderbolt to die with them and block their attack. Take this opportunity to put some refugees in the customs. Although they can't save all of them, they can save at least some people! Please make a final call!"

Hearing this, Yan Chong was happy and immediately shouted and asked, "Can the gunner fight so accurately?" Are you sure?"

This battalion was originally an artilleryman, and immediately nodded hard and said, "There is no problem with our gunners! It's just that the gunners of the officers and soldiers can't guarantee it! So if we want to do it, we can only use our gunners to do this!"

This battalion general is actually right. Although the range and power of artillery in this era are not too large, and the accuracy is average. If you want to do this kind of thing, it is a little difficult for those gunners, but it is not impossible, because the artillery use of Xing Tianjun is very different from other armies, Xing Tianjun's All types of artillery have already been loaded with quantitative medicine packages, and the casting guns also have a unified shape and specifications, which makes Xing Tianjun's artillery much more accurate than the artillery of other troops. After all, the gunpowder of each shell is accurately weighed, and it uses relatively stable granular gunpowder. Therefore, the range and power of unfired shells can be guaranteed. It is not like the artillery used by the Ming Army and the Jiannu Army, but it is still used in bulk gunpowder. The amount of each charge is basically completed according to the experience of the gunner, and the quality of the gunpowder is also unstable, making it difficult to ensure the accuracy. Therefore, this battalion is familiar with artillery. It may not be possible to replace this idea with others, but the gunners in the Dazhong Army can basically get a certain guarantee.

This is also the basis for his opinion, and it is required that only the gunners and those artillery of the Dazhong Army can be allowed to carry out such a shelling mission.

Yan Chongxi nodded as soon as he heard it and said, "Then do as you say!" Immediately pass my order and prepare all our gunners! The rest of the gunners are not allowed to fire! Let me beat those Jian slaves fiercely! In addition, where is Wang Chengping?"

Wang Chengping immediately shouted, "The last general!"

"Go down and pass on my order to recruit less than 100 dead men, each with a single knife and five Thunderbolt cannons! Let's go to the city later! Go and stop Jiannu for me! Write down their names. After this battle, all of them were reported to the Ministry of War to give their families a lot of care, and each of them was awarded a medal of courage! Enter the Martyrs' Temple for permanent worship!" Yan Chongxi immediately ordered.

The reason why he ordered the recruitment of dead soldiers below the army commanders is mainly because it is not easy to train officers in the large and medium-sized army. If too many senior officers are killed in battle, it will affect the overall command, so such an order was issued. In addition, the Kokang Medal is the medal system promoted by Xiao Tianjian in the Criminal Army in the early days. One of the medals is specially awarded to soldiers who dare to fight to the death in battle. Most of them are awarded to those soldiers who died in the battle. Anyone who receives this medal will be exempted from Tian Fu in the next ten years, and their children can be preferentially selected as students in the martial arts hall. After coming out, they are basically officers and can win one for their children. The future! So this is also an incentive for the soldiers.

Sometimes the generals in the army always joke about this matter, saying that even if they are going to die, it is best to die as a daredevil. After death, they can basically get the Kokang Medal. In that case, their families will have no worries about food and clothing for a long time in the future!

And human life is the least valuable in this era. Every time there is a war, Xing Tianjun will often organize such a daredevil to fight in order to reduce more casualties, which can often receive a miraculous effect. Therefore, this kind of daredevil's combat method is very popular among all departments of the Xingtian Army, and there are many soldiers who are willing to act as Such a dare to die!

After Wang Chengping responded loudly, he immediately went down and began to do this matter in person. At the same time, he also prepared a battalion to meet the refugees in three closed places.

Just as they were just getting ready, the main city of Shanhaiguan, Beiyi City and Dongluo City took the lead in sounding a series of gunfire. Wu Xiang over there could not hold on and began to order the defenders under his command to fire at the gate. This kind of shelling can be said to be indiscriminate shelling, whether it is refugees or The construction of the slave army was bombarded.

After the garrison's shells fell, they walked among the refugees in the front, and there was a piece of blood. After each shell fell, a blood alley was opened among them, which immediately caused a large number of refugee casualties. Some shells also fell in the slave army behind, which was also the flesh and blood of the slaves. Fly.

With a cruel and ferocious smile, Dort looked at what happened in front of him and said with a sneer, "Bang! Let them bombard! Anyway, it's all the Han people who die. I don't believe they can kill all these Han dogs! Pass the order, and the people behind you are not allowed to mess up! If anyone dares to retreat, kill him on the spot!"

How can the refugees who were shelled stand such a scene! So more refugees lost the dirt bag on their shoulders and wanted to escape backwards in horror, but they were still a piece of knives and guns that greeted them. In an instant, a large number of refugees fell under the butcher's knife of the Jiannuer army, forcing these refugees to brave the gunfire of the defenders and continue to move on. The refugees cried and begged for the defense of the city. The army should stop firing, but in order to defend the city, how could Wu Xiang dare to order to stop firing? The sound of the defenders' guns came one after another, and the shells were still bombarded mercilessly. More refugees began to turn into a mass of flesh and blood, scattered under the mountain customs, and a large amount of human blood was quickly immersed in the soil, making this The soil has become much more fertile.

Yan Chongxi shook his head helplessly, turned around and roared loudly, "The order is to fire! Bombard those damn slaves! Fight!"

At this time, the prepared artillerymen gritted their teeth and carefully operated their own cannons, and began to light the fire one after another. They could only see that on the Guancheng west of Xiluo City, a series of fires flashed in an instant. The thick smoke rose at once, and all kinds of shells roared and flew. Away from the gun, they fell into the distance in an instant.

Yan Chongxi hugged his fist and cried to Guan Xia with tears, "My fellow villagers below! I'm sorry to all of you! This matter has to be done. Only in this way can Yan save the lives of more people! I'm offended! After fighting back the thirts, Yan will personally burn paper for you!

Come on, pass the order, shout together, and let those refugees run faster! We will save them!"

After receiving the order, the generals of the large and medium-sized soldiers stationed along the wall and the Ming soldiers who were their auxiliary soldiers immediately began to shout in unison: "Homemen, run! Run forward! We will save you! Hurry up and run forward! ......”

These shells fired by the Dazhong Army are different from those shells fired by the Ming garrison. Unlike them, they are bombarded regardless of the enemy. These shells of the Dazhong Army seem to have long eyes. After roaring out of the gun, they basically crossed the heads of the front refugees, and soon fell on them one after another. In the array of the Jiannu army that followed behind, there were bloody alleys in the Jiannu army. Jiannu cried and shouted for his father and mother. Suddenly, he suddenly became a little confused. Some shells were hit more accurately, and unexpectedly hit some siege equipment promoted by Jiannu from afar, even if some siege weapons were put The equipment collapsed, and immediately shocked the followers who pushed the equipment. The flying wood chips hurt a lot of followers and Jiannu soldiers, and the Jiannu was a little dizzy.

"Daw! Why are these criminal thieves shooting so accurately? Those who only beat us, but not those damn dogs?" Azig stood behind Dorgom and immediately exclaimed and scolded when he saw such a situation.

Dorgun's pupils also suddenly shrank. He did not expect this situation in advance. In his knowledge, today's cannons can't be so accurate. The cannons of the Xing Tian Thief almost hit the army under his command, but they rarely fell on the head of the refugees in front of him. It can be seen that in terms of playing cannons, he We Jiannu was obviously not the opponent of the Xing Tianjun, so he immediately ordered that some refugees followed closely, and tried to make the cannonballs of the criminal cannonballs not allow them. Even if they were beaten, they could only be unable to run on both sides.

So the slave soldiers who followed the refugees hurriedly accelerated their speed, kept up with the refugees, and tried to lean more closely, so that the gunners of the Xing Tianjun threw a rat and dared not fight like this again.

But at this time, there was a thunderous shout in the city, greeting the refugees to quickly run towards the three closing places, claiming that someone would answer them.

The refugees were unable to advance or retreat at this time. After hearing the shouts of the soldiers and generals in the city, they immediately accelerated their pace as if they had caught the last life-saving straw, lost their earth bags one after another, and rushed towards the three closing doors.

As soon as the door was closed, the dead men of the 100th Army immediately rushed out with Thunderbolt cannons on their backs. Not long after, they responded to the refugees. They shouted to let the refugees run towards the door, and they immediately went up against the current, pushed the refugees, and staggered through the crowd. The slave soldiers who followed closely behind.

When the three doors were closed, a group of soldiers of the large and medium-sized army immediately began to leave the customs, shouting loudly, and greeting the refugees to escape into the gate quickly. They began to defend under the closing of the door, raised rows of long guns, and erected big shields.

(Today, I thank the reward of the Baiyun gap brothers!)
