Chapter 96 Battle of Shanhaiguan 2

When Jiannu saw that he heard his Hongyi cannon sound, he was immediately shocked. Many Jiannu pulled out their waist knives and raised them in the air and screamed strangely, as excited as chicken blood.

Unfortunately, their cheers were a little too early. Jiannu's cannons opened fire, which looked spectacular, but after all, they fired solid bullets, some of which were still stone bombs, not even iron bullets. If they were used to bombard the enemy's walls, these Hongyi cannons were undoubtedly a big killer. Solid bullets will cause great damage to the enemy's wall, but it's a little bad for fighting in the field and beating people. This is not a problem on the one hand of Jiannu, including the more powerful Dazhong army than them. Although the Dazhong army has been equipped with flower bombs in batches, that is, explosive grenades, the cannons of this era. It is doomed to take solid bullets as the main type of bullets, and the power on the battlefield is far less powerful than that of later generations.

So after these dozens of seemingly powerful shells fell, not to mention their power, their accuracy alone makes everyone a little despised. These Jiannu Wuzhenchao Hahan artillery gunners have obviously not completely mastered the cannon surface. In addition, they use bulk gunpowder, and the amount of charge is not easy to control. More than three miles away, it is obviously a little difficult for them to accurately hit the array of the Dazhong army.

So most of these dozen shells were too close, either in front of the two armies, or too far behind the array of the large and medium army, all of which fell on the open space. Even a cannonball simply flew too close and did not hit the queue of the large and medium-sized army, but fell on the slave army that was moving slowly. In the array of Zhenchao Harbin Camp, where the shells passed, he immediately tore up several Han soldiers of Jiannu, which attracted Jiannu Wuzhenchao Harbin Camp.

There were only three or four shells, which were relatively accurate to fall in the formation of the Dazhong Army, or in front of the formation, and then the heavy shells bounced on the ground and rushed into the array of the Dazhong Army. Along the way, they tore up the bodies of one or twenty soldiers of the Dazhong Army and raised a blood fog. Where the cannonballs passed. What's more, the disabled limbs flew randomly, which made the Dazhong Army bear the first wave of losses in this battle.

However, for the large and medium-sized army, such a blow could not shake their team at all. Almost every general was indifferent, as if they had not seen these shells at all. Even if there were robes torn apart by shells around them, they did not stop, but clenched their teeth one by one and continued to take With a face of indifference, he stepped on the drum sound of the marching drum step by step, maintained a neat formation, and continued to move forward. The gap in the queue was hit by shells. In the shouts of the officers, it was also quickly healed, and immediately restored the neatness of the team.

Huang Taiji was watching the war situation in front of him. Seeing such an artillery effect, he was obviously a little dissatisfied. After a cold snorting, someone immediately rushed to the position of Wu Shoujin's gun array, and scolded Wu Shoujin.

Wu Shoujin pulled out a black line on his face. He also felt that such a shelling effect was really a little unreasonable. As a Han general, he was actually proficient in using cannons. He knew that the accuracy of shelling was very average at this distance, but now, after all, Huang Taiji was also watching the battle. He felt that he could not explain, especially that The shell that hit his own array made him lose face, so Wu Shoujin immediately ordered to drag out the gunner responsible for aiming the cannon that fired the cannonball and cut off his head. He shouted and scolded the Han artillerymen under his command, so that he could immediately adjust the muzzle and quickly continue to load the shell and prepare to One launch.

After watching Jiannu first bombardment, the artillery of the heavy artillery battalion of the Dazhong Army also widened their eyes and showed an angry face. Someone immediately asked Huang Shengqiang, the cannon master, to fire again to attack the Jiannu army.

However, Huang Shengqiang refused the request of his subordinates with a serious face and scolded them, "Don't talk nonsense. The 12-pound gun has an effective range of 800 steps. Although it can hit the enemy's array as far as far as possible, its power is not enough!" What can it do? It's embarrassing for us to be ashamed. If we don't enter the effective range, no one is allowed to fire! Otherwise, I will kick his ass! Go and carry out our baby-in-home baby, and let Jiannu Ta's taste our strength later!"

After the artillery captains heard about it, they grinned with a gloomy smile and immediately went down to make arrangements. The gunner immediately went to the back of the artillery array and carried up a box of shells. After opening it, he put it next to the cannon.

Jiannu's cannon was indeed arrogant. The effect of the first round of shelling was seriously poor. After being killed by Wu Shoujin, the remaining gunners were more nervous one by one. They carefully aimed carefully through the door and adjusted the muzzle with a cushion. After a busy time, the second round of shelling finally began.

This time, Jiannu's cannons hit much more accurately. After more than a dozen heavy guns roared, more than half of the solid shells fell in front of the large and medium-sized army array, and then continued to fly forward with the help of the ground, and crashed into the array of the large and medium-sized army one after another.

Such a heavy shell is irresistible for people. No matter how good armor you wear, as long as the heavy cannon, there is only one dead word.

The shells raised pieces of blood fog in the array of the Chinese army, opening up a bloody alley. A shell scratched the leg of a soldier. He immediately cut off his calf from his knee and continued to fly over. After bouncing on the ground, he stopped his waist and tore a firearm hand into two pieces. It made the scene extremely bloody. It was not until the shell hit the chest of the last soldier and smashed his whole chest into a depression. The chest armor was also deeply embedded in his chest that the shell completely stopped. The cannon slave killed and injured at least five or six soldiers of the middle army, that is, It is that the large and medium-sized soldiers are strictly trained. When they see such a tragic scene, some people still vomit out because of excessive nervousness.

However, although some soldiers bowed their heads and vomited, they did not stop moving forward because of this. After a long period of rigorous practice, they had already formed a mechanical sense of obedience to orders. No one dared to dodge at this time, and no one dared to stop because the robe around them turned into a ball of meat, because they knew that, At this time, once they dodged in panic and stopped moving forward, what impact would it have on the whole queue? Therefore, even if they were under great psychological pressure, these tough generals were basically turned a blind eye to them. They continued to step on the drums of the marching drums and continue to move forward in the roar of the cannon fire. As he marched, he slowly approached the oncoming Jiannu army step by step.

But there were medical soldiers behind him who immediately rushed up with a stretcher and immediately put the injured on the stretcher. While comforting them, they quickly carried them down. Although these medical guards are not combat troops, I'm afraid they are the people who have seen the most blood. At this time, there is no panic at all. In an orderly way to grab the robes that were injured by the cannon on the battlefield, even the bodies of some of the dead were robbed by them. Although they were not many, it was everyone's hope on the battlefield, which undoubtedly played a great role in boosting the morale of the Dazhong army.

Although some of the generals in the north this time are supplementary new soldiers, all the generals who can participate in this Northern Expedition are basically elites. Most people have seen the scene of flesh and blood flying, so although the cannons roared on the opposite side, However, it did not disrupt their marching formation, at most, opening up blood alleys in their array, but these blood alleys torn apart by shells were immediately automatically healed by other soldiers. In addition to leaving a small amount of broken arms and a pool of blood behind them, this kind of shelling is basically big. The impact of the Chinese army is very small.

Xiao Tianjian is now used to this kind of flesh-and-blood scene, and this kind of scene can no longer affect his thick nerves. It is inevitable that people are killed and injured in a war. What is a war without blood? It is inevitable to pay the price, and he is confident that if he waits for a while, their army will recover the debt at ten times the cost, so that Jiannu will shed more blood.

Although he also knew that the slaves facing them on the opposite side were basically Han people, since these Han people had shaved their hair and left money and rat tails, they were enemies and no longer their compatriots. For them, Xiao Tianjian would never be merciful. In the battle of Tongzhou, he Many of the Jiannu soldiers captured by the Great Massacre were Han soldiers. The Dazhong army had already known what he thought, so once they did it, no one would be merciful to the Han soldiers who built slaves.

Looking at Jiannu's array of continuous shelling his own side, Xiao Tianjian just silently stared at the battlefield ahead with cold eyes and was not moved at all. On the contrary, a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth and nodded gently. Obviously, he was satisfied with the performance of the generals in front of him.

An army that can face the enemy's gunfire and watch the robes around him fall, but is unmoved, belongs to a strong army in this world. Obviously, he has done this. He successfully turned the soldiers under his command into a group of warriors who look down to death. With such an army, why don't he worry about defeating it? What about the self-righteous savage army?

Although the heavy artillery on the side of the Dazhong Army has not yet begun to roar, Xiao Tianjian knows what kind of surprise it will bring to the enemy once the cannon of the Dazhong Army rings.

Playing with me? Your Tatars are still too young. In Xiao Tianjian's eyes, the Tatars play with cannons. At most, they are at most because they have just graduated from kindergarten, and the artillery of his large and medium-sized army is at least a high school student now.

Although Jiannu knew that they used cannons before the short soldiers were joined, they didn't know how to use these cannons. However, the artillery of the large and medium army had already learned more things on the battlefield. When they really showed the sharpness of the artillery fire of the large and medium army, Jiannu would definitely be afraid. .

Luo Lidu led his troops to the battlefield step by step, approaching the enemy step by step, while Huang Shengqiang led the artillery to quietly pay attention to the distance of the enemy behind them.

It was not until the Han soldiers of Jiannu's Wuzhenchaoha camp saw that they were close to 800 steps in front of the cannon of the Dazhong Army that Huang Shengqiang rubbed a ray of rat beard on his jaw and suddenly took off a beard. He took a breath of cold air in pain. Such a large-scale battle was also the first for Huang Shengqiang. What's more, the opposite side is not the Ming army that they can beat casually, but Jiannu, who has the same fierce reputation as their Dazhong army. It is impossible for him not to be nervous at all, but his veteran is better at covering up than his men now, but he accidentally picks a beard, which still exposes his mood. Originally His beard was not thick, and he suddenly took another one, which made Huang Shengqiang angry, so he immediately sprinkled the fire on the opposite Jiannu and suddenly shouted, "Three rapid shots! Open fire!"
