Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 163: Offense and defense (2)

The corpse mountains and bones are full of battlefields,

The lonely city is not willing to descend!

A message to passersby, Hugh cover his nose,

The living are less fragrant than the dead!

"In the bright season, Shilin has no shame and hatred. ↗ Top novels, high-ranking officials and well-known people are proud of their masked beggars; and Fengjiang's commanders are all introverted and introverted. Du Yan and Chen Erdian are in the same city. See righteousness. If this is the case with the envoy guarding the Jingkou, Jiangnan will not surrender."

—Mourning Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun

........

This round of artillery towers can be clearly seen from the top of the head. The eight artillery pieces are afraid to kill at least dozens of green battalion soldiers, blow up several shield vehicles, and swept away an unknown number of ladders. Looking at the chaotic green battalion soldiers , listening to their screams, the Taiping soldiers in the city immediately burst into cheers with excitement, and even the Xinhui Qingzhuang, who was still trembling with his legs just now, suddenly regained his composure and shouted loudly.

When the cannon was fired, Ge Zheng was standing in front of the Hongyi Cannon. The sudden sound of the cannon made his eardrums hurt. He thought he was deaf. The humming in the ears was still there, and they slapped their thighs heavily, and the smiling gunners shouted: "Damn, good fight, good fight! Fight, beat me again, and blow up these bastards. Go to the West!"

"Reward, reward, reward, after the battle, Lao Tzu will give you a reward, real gold and silver, real gold and silver..."

Ge Zheng, who was overjoyed, forgot how much money he had in his hands. The money was all piled up in the public treasury, but who would care about this.

Zhou Shixiang, who was in the distance, also nodded his head. He secretly said that these guys from the Han Junqi are really good at handling cannons. A few cannonballs hit the center of the crowd. It seems that they can't be killed in the future. They use their own usefulness, otherwise it would be a pity, after all, the Taiping army is too weak, and there are very few "technical" soldiers such as this one who can handle artillery.

It was also the first time that Song Xianggong, who saw his own soldiers and horses fire cannons, was also very pleased. He moved a few beards with a few chins and said happily: "This cannon is good. It will show the prestige of our Taiping Army, and improve the morale!"

............

Although the Green Battalion, who had expected the Taiping Army to fire cannons in the city, had already made psychological preparations, but when the cannonballs came, they watched their companions all around and were smashed by cannonballs. They couldn't help but tremble.

The corpses that were smashed to the point of being unable to be seen, the wailing of serious injuries, the wood **** flying everywhere, and even the broken arms and stumps, the green battalion soldiers who were charging immediately fell into chaos.

"Rush, rush forward!"

in confusion. An experienced Green Battalion officer raised a knife and shouted, and soon, a veteran passed the recruits who were still standing stupidly and rushed down the city like a madman.

Although the casualties caused by a few red cannons to the green battalion were large, it was nothing to the two thousand green battalion soldiers who charged. It didn't take long for the adjusted battalion soldiers to continue rushing forward.

All the artillery of the Taiping army on the city head fired, but they did not hold back. Xinhui City is built along the riverside plain, and there is a flat terrain in front of the east gate. More than 2,000 green battalion soldiers concentrated here to attack the city wall. Although they can achieve the effect of a large number of people, they also suffered heavy casualties under the attack of artillery.

After the sound of the cannon, there was a copper cannon on the top of the city. The dumbfounded Han army gunner looked at the two swordsmen who raised the knife with a look of fear, and kept explaining, lest the swordsman who didn't understand anything would kill him. If you really don't want to let it go, there's nothing to say, but this gun is really dumb. It would be a shame to fall for this man's head.

Some cannons were fired too many times, the barrels of the cannons were red, and the medicine could not be released. If you force it down, it will explode immediately. As a last resort, you can only use water to cool it down. If the water is not enough, you will urinate when you untie your pants. After the gun barrel is cooled, carefully clean it with an iron hook before you can launch it again.

......

Nearly half of the artillery in the city was concentrated at the east gate. Such intensive shelling made the green battalion soldiers who were attacking the city miserable. Especially after they rushed to Li Xudi, the scattered cannons suddenly smashed on the city were comparable to speculators. It can take dozens or twenty lives.

"Disperse! Disperse! Disperse!"

After a green camp officer found out that the cannons were fired in the city, they were so frightened that they ordered their subordinates to disperse.

"Don't withdraw, don't withdraw!"

The green battalion soldiers who attacked the city this time were the first part of the Guangzhou green battalion and the green battalion soldiers under the jurisdiction of the Guangzhou government. The Guangzhou green battalion was fine. After all, it was a provincial green battalion. Many of the Green Battalion soldiers in the counties under the jurisdiction of Guangzhou Prefecture are newly recruited soldiers. I have never seen the scene of taking the city with artillery. Not long after the shelling, these newly recruited soldiers became frightened and began to run back subconsciously. But before he ran a few steps, he was overthrown by the veterans who came up behind, and then dragged them forward.

It's okay to run into a veteran, but if you run into an officer, you'll be stabbed straight away. This is a kung fu, how can the officers cherish human lives, and which one does not have hundreds of lives on their hands, how can they show mercy to the deserters. If you really show mercy, the flag soldiers behind are not blind, and you can have your own good after the fact!

Under the pressure of the officers' bullets, the battalions stopped their retreat, and then scattered under the orders of the officers. As a result, a lot of guns on the city were left empty. Experienced officers rushed up to judge the firing gap of the artillery on the city, and then took advantage of the gap rate of the artillery at the top of the city, which was busy with reloading and reloading.

After paying hundreds of casualties, Green Camp rushed to the bottom of the city, within a mile of the city wall. The distance was too close, and the cumbersome Hongyi Cannon could not adjust the muzzle at all. Zhou Shixiang saw this and ordered the Hongyi Cannon to not need to be adjusted. uukanshu.com in order to cut off the connection between the Han army flag and the green battalion. This method in later generations is to cut off the artillery fire, so that the front and main force of the enemy cannot be connected.

The Hongyi Cannon could not hit it, but the other small cannons could. In the sound of "bang bang", dozens of small cannons smashed the medicine under the city like rain. Amidst the whistling cannons, iron **** shot at the Green Battalion soldiers. The iron ball smashed to the ground, jumped up again in an instant, and swept past like the tail of a comet, smashing the green battalion soldiers in front of him into puddles of mud. The iron ball jumped up and down on the battlefield, and every time it jumped, it was a life. An iron ball still remained, jumped again, and smashed heavily on the head of a battalion soldier behind. An iron ball didn't know how to bounce, but it went directly through the stomach of a battalion soldier, taking away all the flesh and bones in an instant, revealing an empty big round hole "puchipuchi" bubbling with blood.

The officers of the Green Battalion under the city did not care about the heavy casualties, and the commanding officers who were swearing leaned under the city, and a few shield trucks were going to rush under the city gate in the chaos. Regardless of how close those shield cars are, it is very difficult to hit them.

Seeing that a shield cart was being pushed into the city gate by several battalions in double armor, the seven or eight Taiping troops on the city tower immediately lifted a boulder with difficulty, and then smashed it down hard. The shield cart could not avoid it, and when it was hit, it split quickly. A battalion soldier was struck by a stick of wood, and the battalion soldier came out through his chest. Can't move.
