The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

When Wanyan Qingying saw his cannon fire, the Song army's artillery suddenly stopped. The cavalry immediately retreated and couldn't help but be very happy. The Jin army generals on the sand beam cheered even more. For many years, countless Jurchens died in Song.

Under the military artillery fire, those who have experienced the battle often wake up in nightmare after many years. In the overwhelming and deafening explosion, the city walls and houses were destroyed, and the people and horses became fragmented in an instant. These became their hearts that could never be erased.

The gloom of this, I finally had artillery today, and I could compete with the Song army.

But the excitement of the Jurchens did not last long. The Song army's artillery army quickly began to counterattack. Their artillery fire was fierce and fast. On the one hand, they seemed to be in a hurry in the counterattack, but they fired three artillery shots on the other side.

He couldn't shoot a shot, and his accuracy was too bad. I don't know where the shells had flew, and he could not suppress the Song army's artillery at all. His own gunners were killed and injured, showing the true appearance of the silver-like wax gun tip.

In fact, in Zhao Qi's eyes, even those newly-known artillery soldiers who were a little bit familiar would think that they should be scrap iron that should be rebuilt, which is far less serious than Zheng Ping and others imagined. They just made excessive efforts out of caution.

Reaction. First of all, the artillery of the Song Dynasty also went through two stages of casting with bronze and casting with iron during the manufacturing and use of bronze. The use of copper was because Zhao Qiong thought that the quality of iron was too poor now and could not withstand the huge pressure caused by gunpowder explosion.

I used iron to cast cannons until he took power, and the workshop made high-quality steel, and it was not smooth sailing.

This is true in the Song Dynasty, not to mention the Jurchens who had just entered the slave society from primitive society, the iron smelting and casting techniques they mastered were learned from the Khitan and the craftsmen who plundered the Song Dynasty, and they made great strides directly with iron to cast cannons.

, the difficulties encountered can be imagined. They first chose the seemingly simple bore gun as a model for imitation, and in order to allow inferior iron to withstand the pressure caused by gunpowder explosion, they had to increase the thickness of the gun body.

The barrel made of the gun body is thick, and the caliber is actually very small, and the hatchbacks are disproportionate at all.

After countless trial productions, the cannon was barely created, but because they did not understand the mystery of gunpowder, they could not create gunpowder with a suitable ratio, which made the range of the cannon very short. They could only increase the range by increasing the charge amount.

First, the sound of the cannon cannot withstand the increased pressure, and it also needs to increase the wall thickness to ensure that the cannon will not explode. Therefore, the final thing is a stupid and stupid guy. It has a bluffing appearance, but in fact

The power is very limited, and it can only fire seven kilograms of solid bullets, with a range of only about 150 steps. Today, it has an advantage in height, barely reaching 200 steps, but it has also scared Song Jun and other old men.

Oilers.

The Jin army has no precedent for the use of the new weapon, a new type of weapon, and the rules were completely solved by blind people touching the elephant themselves. It not only contains the bitterness and bitterness, but also the price of blood and life. But because of the size of the cannons they equipped

It's too big. A cannon requires a team of fifty soldiers to operate. Of course, it is mainly used as coolies. It is deployed on the position, adjusts the gun position, and changes the shooting angle. Everyone needs to join forces, otherwise they can't move!

To be honest, the artillery equipped by the Jin army is really not suitable for fighting with the army. It is more reliable to be used as a fixed fire support platform. On the other hand, as the main force of the army's combat operations, the artillery battalion is equipped with four or five hundred kilograms of light artillery, which is generally used.

It is a three-three organization, with one battalion under the jurisdiction of three capitals. One capital under the jurisdiction of three teams, one team under the jurisdiction of three gangs, one team operating a cannon, and one artillery battalion has twenty-seven artillery pieces. Several people passed through the cannon stand.

The mechanical mechanism can adjust the gun position and change the shooting direction and angle, which is much faster than the Jin army's reaction speed.

In the past, the various defects in the Jin army's artillery army might be tolerated, but when the two armies confronted each other, they became a fatal fatal point. The operation of the front-bucket gun was originally quite complicated, and the barrel must be cleaned after a single shot.

To extinguish the Mars and gunpowder residues in it, then the medicine can be charged again, and the gunpowder and projectiles can be filled. One process must not be missing. After several consecutive launches, it is necessary to cool down. Otherwise, there will be a risk of explosion.

Their artillery is heavy and the soil on the sand beam is loose. Under the action of recoil, it will shift after each launch. This requires the readjustment of the gun position and shooting angle, which will increase the workload.

The Song army used rapid-fire guns to suppress the enemy's firepower. This gun uses a bullet barrel that was filled in advance. After firing, it only needs to withdraw the old one and replace it with a new one. The gun body has a bullet barrel with a loading bullet barrel

The sunroof has good ventilation and heat dissipation, and continuous launch does not require a long time to cool down, which gives it an advantage in the rate of fire in the shooting. At the same time, after replacing the new gun, the range has also increased, and even if it is upright, it can reach 200.

Above. Unfortunately, the Jin army's artillery is like an iron lump, and it is difficult to destroy it even if it hits directly. It can only be suppressed by destroying its artillery mounts and positions.

At the same time, the Song army's mortar cannon also began to fire. Although it is also a type of bore gun, its caliber is large and short. Its operation is simpler than that of the Jin army's long-body cannon, and its firing rate is not inferior.

For it, it can also fire a variety of shells. The flowering shells launched now use new gunpowder and are more powerful. They can blow up a large area and kill combatants. They can also forgive them for their slow speed...

After several rounds of firefight between the artillery troops of the two sides, the Jin army artillery soldiers felt no longer supported. The artillery mounts of several artillery were destroyed and they plunged head to the ground and refused to get up. The soldiers who were operating the artillery also suffered considerable casualties, resulting in

The firepower density was greatly reduced, but the Song army became more and more brave as they fought, and artillery shells were overwhelming to their positions, which made all the Jin artillery soldiers who were on the battlefield for the first time frightened, but under the strict orders of the officers, they could only continue to fire artillery, but only speed

It's getting slower and slower.

"Why did the artillery fire stop?" Wanyan Yanying originally hoped to rely on his artillery army to deal a heavy blow to the Song army, but she didn't want to be equally unbearable. But as the sound of his artillery was gradually sparse, she asked loudly.

"The Dutong Army, our artillery cannot be launched continuously, and it needs to be stopped for a while to cool down before it can be launched again." Xi Sandantu explained hurriedly.

"So can you just put it there and wait for the enemy to rush up? Don't stop and shoot at the enemy infantry!" Seeing that the Song army's infantry had already launched an attack, the crossbowmen on the slope were unable to stop the Song army's machine guns and beads.

The dense rain of bullets fired by the guns, and there were heavy casualties before the enemy could enter the range of the bow and arrow. He said furiously, but he secretly scolded in his heart that his cannon could not beat the opponent's artillery, so there was no problem in fighting the infantry. But Wanyan Yanying forgot about himself

Just as he was walking, he turned around and exploded at the artillery position under his feet.

Otherwise, the layman could not command the experts, Wanyan Qiying continued to bombard the gun despite the overheating of the gun body. As a result, the gunpowder was ignited by the hot gun body as soon as it was loaded into the gun box, and a chamber explosion occurred. The violent explosion not only destroyed the artillery, but also caused disaster.

The gunners who were operating the artillery ignited the gunpowder placed aside and overturned the artillery in adjacent positions. A team of soldiers were either killed or injured, and almost all of them were buried in the explosion.

"A pile of waste..." Wanyan Qiying looked at the twisted cannons on the cannon position, the gunners fleeing everywhere, and the positions burned into a sea of ​​fire, cursed pale.

Seeing that the artillery could not be pointed, the Song army's infantry had already broken through the frontier positions and was moving towards the top of the beam, opening a breakthrough of hundreds of steps wide. He urgently ordered the on-site cavalry to launch a counterattack to suppress the Song army's infantry.

But the Song army's artillery did not agree. Their artillery fire extended forward, concentrated their firepower to shoot on the impact surface, and shot a barrage, which flew away the flesh and blood of the Golden Cavalry who was trying to break through, covering their infantry to continue attacking.

.

The Song army infantry, who received firepower support, quickly moved forward and broke into the enemy artillery position. The artillery soldiers, who had been blown up, had no power to resist when they saw the Song army killing them, and they did not arrange them on the position.

Guard power. The soldiers of the Song army clearly know that guns are easy to build and soldiers are difficult to train, because the gunners of the Song Dynasty are carefully selected. They are not only clever, but also have to read. They are not something that anyone can do if they want.

So they were killing the gunners. The Jin artillery soldiers had nothing but the cannon barrels in their hands, so they could only abandon the cannon and flee.

"Attack!" Zheng Ping saw the signal flares rising into the air, and knew that the enemy's cannon position had fallen into his hands, so he ordered.

"The Great Song Dynasty, mighty!"

"Your Majesty, mighty!" The cavalry finally waited for the order to attack. They quickly lined up forward. The artillery seized the time to launch the last round of artillery fire, disrupted the enemy's formation, and then quickly stopped the artillery and evacuated to make way for the cavalry to make way for the road.

The cooperation between the two arms was as smooth as flowing. Obviously, only after rigorous training and rich practical experience can this be done. Fortunately, all this was not seen by Wanyan Yanying, otherwise he would have to be messed with artillery spirit.

Half dead.

As the cavalry entered the battle, their overwhelming charge made the Jin army front, which had lost the cover of artillery fire, vulnerable. The rolling iron hooves shattered Wanyan's dream, and their long rode pierced the Jin army's last confidence.

When the cavalry rushed to the top of the beam and poured down from the river like a torrent, the Jin army brigade who was waiting to cross the river suddenly fell into panic and could no longer remain calm. The rushing up the ferry bridge near the ferry was far away.

He didn't care about the food, supplies that he couldn't bear to throw away, even the armor and swords and guns on his hands, and rushed into the river and swam towards the other side.

"It's over, everything is over!" Wanyan Qiying was helped by several trusted generals at the last moment and killed a bloody road onto the floating bridge. He looked back at the army running to escape under the firelight and cried on his back... (Unfinished)
