Valley Emperor

Although the muskets equipped by the bandits in Huangzhu Mountain still have many shortcomings, there is one thing that is difficult to compare with other weapons, and that is their enormous power.

When Wang Shanxu ordered to shoot, the two musket teams of Wang Shi of the Tang Dynasty sounded dense gunfire accompanied by thick white smoke.

At the same time, the archers in Fengjiazhuang who were bending their bows and aiming to shoot arrows on the city head fell down in an instant.

The dense projectiles hit the battlements, splashing rubble, hitting those Fengjiazhuang archers who stood up, making blood holes one by one.

The power of projectiles is unmatched by bows and arrows. After the bows and arrows shoot out the enemy, if the arrows are not pulled out directly, and if they do not hit the fatal part, then it is difficult for the hit person to completely die or lose combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

In ancient battlefields, you can often see fierce men with several arrows inserted in their bodies covered in blood, but they still continue to fight regardless of their health.

However, if it is hit by a bullet, even if it does not directly hit the fatal part, it will instantly lose its combat effectiveness.

It's definitely not an exaggeration to hit a big hole!

Even if the Huangzhu Mountain bandits used extremely primitive arquebuses, their power was far inferior to the modern firearms of later generations, but their power should not be underestimated.

None of the fallen Fengjiazhuang archers could continue to stand up, because these people only exposed their upper body, because the part that was hit was either the head or the chest, etc. A big hole was punched in this part, and the injury was It is conceivable that some of them were killed on the spot, and most of the others were only in a state of dying from serious injuries.

There were not many archers in Fengjiazhuang. There were only 20 or 30 people who stood up to shoot arrows just now, but at least a dozen people fell down just after being hit with a salvo.

Its casualty rate should be more than half of the achievements!

Some of the remaining people did not respond, and continued to aim and shoot arrows, but some responded, screamed, and then retracted the battlements, many people were still shaking.

Although they have seen the benefits of the fire guns of the pseudo-Tang bandit army before, and several people have been hit, but in the end they are not facing it in person.

However, the salvo just now was aimed at the archers, and because of the close distance, the hit rate was quite impressive.

Just a round of salvos completely destroyed the archers in Fengjiazhuang. After a few arrows, the few archers who didn't respond found that the other archers on the left and right were either dead or screaming. After the sound, he also felt a sense of fear after realizing it, and then without anyone reminding him, he himself would retract back behind the battlements.

At this time, none of the other people at the top of the city blamed the archers who refused to stand up to shoot arrows after retracting the battlements.

Because even those men in brocade robes were pale at this time, obviously even they did not expect the firepower of the pseudo-Tang bandit army to be so fierce.

Why are their guns so powerful?

It shouldn't be!

It's not like they don't know about fire guns. They even have a batch of fire guns they have obtained from officers and soldiers, but these fire guns in their hands can't hit that far at all. In actual combat, they can hit twenty or thirty steps away. It's not bad, and it's very inaccurate.

Therefore, the fire gun at this time was just an auxiliary weapon for the Ming army and the people in Fengjiazhuang, and the long-range attack mainly depended on the archer.

As the property of the Feng family in Fucheng, Fengjiazhuang was also looted by the pseudo-Tang thieves a while ago, which caused the eldest man in the mansion to be extremely angry. Therefore, the third butler and several other stewards were specially sent from the house of Fucheng to take charge. Defense, the free Fengjiazhuang was looted again.

Although Fengjiazhuang is located at a low price and is close to the edge of the mountain, it is only a remote village in principle, but this Fengjiazhuang just has a small plain, and the water is abundant. Although the place is small, the fields are all high-quality fields. Can produce a lot of food.

It is no exaggeration that Fengjiazhuang, which produces a lot of grain, is valued by the Feng family. After all, in this day and age, nothing is more precious than grain.

But even if he paid attention to it, he even spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build the city wall. During the slack season, he would organize tenants for training. I thought that Fengjiazhuang was already solid, but I didn't expect that the battle had just begun. Lost more than half.

If you add the seven or eight people lost in the first place, then more than 20 people have been killed or injured.

These twenty people may be a small number for a large army, but it is a huge loss for Feng Jiazhuang.

In particular, most of the dead and wounded were archers, and the rest of the archers were too frightened, they did not dare to lean out and risk shooting arrows again. Shooting sporadic arrows in the way of projectiles.

However, the arrows thrown into the sky are almost negligible, whether they are accurate or powerful.

Except for one unlucky guy who was shot in the thigh, there is nothing wrong with the other people on Zhuangzhushan, continue to build bridges!

Seeing that the musket team in front completely suppressed the enemy's archers, and when his own people were quickly building the bridge, Li Xuan turned to Butcher Chen and said, "The sword and shield are ready to go to the city!"

In this kind of siege battle, nothing is more suitable than a sword and shield hand in heavy armor!

After Butcher Chen took the orders, he soon came out with his subordinate sword and shield hands, and then began to slowly advance step by step.

These heavy armored swordsmen and shields walked very slowly, and their movement speed was not even as fast as the usual walking. They didn't run away, but to save their stamina.

Running in a heavy armor consumes a lot of stamina. They must save as much stamina as possible so that they can charge and climb up at the end.

Although these heavy armored sword and shield fighters carrying long ladders are slow~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the pressure they bring to the Fengjiazhuang people at the top of the city is far greater than the previous musketeers.

Because those musketeers are just shooting outside, but these swordsmen and shields will climb up the city to fight, if they can't stop them, once they are allowed to climb up the city and stop the counterattack, then the city will also declare fall.

Therefore, when they saw the pseudo-Tang thief army coming up outside, the men in the golden robes of Fengjiazhuang on the top of the city shouted again. Prepare others for the upcoming hand-to-hand combat.

However, the dozen or so archers that remained had just emerged, and there was another hail of bullets. Those archers who were frightened would never dare to emerge again.

In this case, the heavy armored swords and shields led by Butcher Chen and the others had no obstacles along the way. They successfully crossed the moat through the wooden bridge they had just built, and behind these heavy armored swordsmen and shields, there were also a large number of spears. hand.

If the spearmen who act as vanguards can successfully climb the city and establish a position, then these spearmen will continue to climb up, and it will be impossible for the Fengjiazhuang people to drive them down. .
