The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

The main force of the Southeast Army on the east bank of the Marmara Sea ended the war and progressed smoothly. Zeng Ying of the Seventh Army arrived in the Bosphorus within five days and made contact with the troops who had arrived earlier.

The strait was full of battleships of the Southeast Army. Zeng Ying crossed the strait safely and had a good meeting with Li Laiheng.

Zeng Ying was born in a former Ming official army, and Li Laiheng was in the bandit army system. Everyone used to bite dogs badly, but now everyone is happy to meet each other, and they hold hands and refuse to let go!

It's not easy. If you meet your old friend in another country, go to the country for tens of thousands of miles, and fight such a powerful enemy, everyone is the same enemy, and you can reach the enemy's capital, and you will be happy to think about it.

Zeng Ying sincerely congratulate Li Laiheng for taking the lead, first attacking Istanbul and achieving a historical reputation!

And Li Laiheng also congratulated Zeng Ying and wished them success in the battle and wiped out Baotou's main force.

"You are here, that's it!" Li Laiheng said gratifiedly.

He told Zeng Ying that there were 200,000 defenders in Istanbul, and the Fourth Army was not strong enough to put pressure on the enemy. Now that the large troops arrive, they can attack the city!

"Okay, Siege!" Zeng Ying said fiercely.

The two commanders stood outside the western wall of Istanbul and watched the continuous arrival of the Seventh Army. The brothers of the Fourth Army were very happy to be able to attack the city!

Previously, Baotou was very powerful, and the Fourth Army did not dare to enter Istanbul. Li Laiheng said frankly: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid that we will suffer unnecessary losses and let the brothers sacrifice on the eve of victory! More people will attack the city. !"

Now that there are more people, the Seventh Army first approached the Xiazhai outside the western wall of Istanbul!

But Zeng Ying was equally cautious. His troops set up towering and thick fortifications, dug deep trenches, and formed a trapezoidal defense, which was very tight.

Zeng Ying is not afraid of war. If Baotou guys attack, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, for such a rigorous fortification, Baotou guys will have to pay at least two to one. We have 60,000 people in our army. Can be a blessing and rewarding God.

With so many people, Zeng Ying brazenly contacted the navy and asked them to go ashore with artillery.

Bring up the Yicheng Cannon!

The Yicheng Cannon was a powerful weapon in siege warfare. Before Li Laiheng was afraid to let the cannon ashore because of his few soldiers, lest he could not keep the cannon. Now Zeng Ying is not afraid, and he greets the cannon to come ashore.

So the Istanbul defenders woke up and saw three cannons mounted outside the city, and the pagans were busy deploying cannons.

The Southeast Army first established a track, mounted the cannon on the railcar, and transported it in place.

They leveled the ground, built artillery fortresses, and installed artillery.

"Urban Cannon, this is Urban Cannon!" Baotou looked at the monster with three evil glosses, his face turned pale!

In the battle to conquer 1453, the Baotou used the Urban Cannon against the walls of Constantinople. Now it is their turn to taste the taste, and the retribution is really unhappy.

Vizierfilas Pasha, the main defender of Istanbul, asked his deputy Irmaz Edogan Pasha, "I want to send troops out of the city to destroy the enemy's artillery!"

This cannon is not difficult to smash. Although it is hard, the ancient smelting technology is not good enough. As long as you strike it with a sledgehammer along the cannon body for a while, even if you return it to the Southeast Army, the Southeast Army dare not use it.

A crack was knocked out inside, and the possibility of a bombing chamber was greatly increased, and it could only be returned to the furnace.

Hearing Vizier’s words, Irmaz Edogan Pasha replied: “The opponent is already prepared, I’m afraid it’s not easy to attack!”

This Pasha was in his fifties and had a gray beard. He was originally a defender in Edirne. He later retired. He was recently recruited again. He opposed the attack, so Feralas Pasha did not insist and asked him to be ready. Anti-cannon, and prepare to make up the wall!

The artillery of the Southeast Army was very fast, and by the morning of the next day, the artillery was ready.

Zeng Ying came to the artillery position and ordered: "Fire!"

The three groups of gunners ignited the fuses at the same time. As the ground shook and the mountains shook, heavy smoke rose high, and huge artillery shells roared towards the city wall 200 meters away.

The location of the cannon is close to the Marmara Sea (it is convenient to run in case of a Baotou attack), and the muzzle wave even makes the nearby sea level turbulent!

The power of shelling is huge. After the gunpowder was ignited, there was a terrifying loud noise instantly. The incredible power drove the shells to hit the city wall, causing it to burst!

Three shells accurately hit the outer wall of Istanbul's western city wall, punching three big holes in the city wall!

In an instant, the city bricks shattered and the fragments splashed everywhere, triggering bursts of applause from the Southeast Army, while Baotou guys were frustrated.

Irmaz Edogan Pasha waved his hand, the soldiers and civilians went to the gap to make up for the leak, and then they paid the price of blood, which is a different taste from the previous defenders of Constantinople.

The Southeast Army can sniper far away!

As long as the Baotou guy shows his head, he will be shot. The Southeast Army not only has sharpshooters like Vahili, but also a large number of excellent shooters. Many of them are as good as Vahili's shooting level, even if they are inferior. He is also very good at shooting.

Baotou had to wear armor and shielded with shields. He was very uncomfortable at work. He had to endure the fear of Southeast Army bullets hitting the shield. Some shields were of poor quality. After being hit, they were pierced. The man fell.

Even more frightening is that the Southeast Army fired flying thunder cannons at the crowd repairing the city wall.

Although the accuracy of the flying thunder cannon is not good, the Baotou guy is in trouble when multiple flying thunder cannons attack together~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When the thrown bomb exploded, the dust, debris and smoke rose into several hundred meters. In the air, a huge cone was formed, and the bomb exploded above the crowd, deafening, and bombarding people everywhere, with flames and gun smoke everywhere, amidst the shouts, fearing the high tension of the next shell. During the period, people became hysterical.

Panic ensued, and the Southeast Army began to build dirt hills!

The tall Tushan Mountain was a weapon of the Southeast Army's siege. Baotou had already heard about it, and when he saw the Tushan Mountain rising steadily, his panic grew.

Feeling the pressure of the people, the Baotou guy used the weapon at the bottom of the pressure box---the counterweight trebuchet.

The counterweight catapult uses the principle of leverage. One end is equipped with a heavy object, and the other end is equipped with a bomb to be launched. Let one end of the heavy object fall, and the bomb will be thrown away. It is enough to throw a hundred kilograms of Jolin to Four hundred meters away.

In order to ensure the range of the snipers, the Tushan Mountain was less than a hundred meters away from the city and was under the attack range of the trebuchet.

One by one, flying rocks hit the Tushan Mountain, most of them were missed, and some Tushan Mountain was hit, splashing a large amount of dust, and the officers and soldiers of the Southeast Army were killed and injured.

But Tushan is still thriving. Not only that, the Southeast Army also dispatched a catapult, throwing a kerosene bomb in the direction of the Baotou guy's catapult!

The Southeast Army’s catapults are more powerful and can hit farther and more accurately.

There was a fire somewhere inside the city walls of Istanbul, and it was the catapult that was hit that caught fire!

Of course, the Baotou guys would not give up their food because of choking. They moved the catapult maneuver and still attacked outside the city.

The Southeast Army is becoming more and more active. They attacked from a distance, bombarded with artillery, built dirt hills, catapults, flying thunder cannons, and even grenadiers, and their attacks continued to increase with the arrival of Yan Changwu.
