"Go on."

When he waved the flag, he saw a flag flower flying into the sky. The Ming soldiers in the trench in the front took out grenades from the cloth bag almost every other person, lit it with a fire stick, and threw it out in the direction of the Banyue Fort with a loud shout.

The Banyue Fort is not high, and the distance between it and the zigzag trench of the Ming army is only about twenty steps, which is less than thirty meters. In the words of Brother Yunlong: Even a woman can throw grenades into the ring fortifications!

The grenades equipped by the Ming army now are still silly and silly hollow iron balls, but these grenades are also veterans with extraordinary arm strength. After a long period of training, this distance is easy.

Grenades all over the sky flew up, crossed a perfect arc and fell into the Half Moon Castle. Immediately afterwards, explosions rang out in a scream of horror, especially when some sparks rushed into the powder barrels that had just been opened, and even looking from the main castle of the basin, flames and smoke even covered the interior of the Half Moon Castle.

"Grenadier, charge!"

The grenades were thrown out, and the Ming troops in the trench held the swords and shields used for close combat in their hands. When an armored officer jumped onto the edge of the trench and waved his sword to point at the Banyue Fort, the Ming commandos also jumped out and rushed up shouting.

There was a moat in front of the Banyue Fort. Among the charge Ming army, there were ladders specially nailed to wooden boards. When they rushed to the moat, they put the thing on and the other Ming army rushed over.

The Qing army in Banyue Fort was killed and injured, and they were either unscathed or were stunned. The Qing army in the main fort began to fire artillery to provide fire support to Banyue Fort. However, the Ming army did not hesitate at all. They crossed the moat and erected ladders to climb up. Then they killed the Qing army in the fort like chopping melons and vegetables. These Qing troops often died in a bad way before they even reacted.

With the design drawings in hand, the Ming army commando was very familiar with the structure of the Triangle Fort. Each Ming army had a planned attack direction and completed the cutting of the defenders at an extremely fast speed. However, they did not rush to kill all the Qing troops like a loose sand. Instead, they drove them to the protective wall facing the main fortress of Triangle Fort. Another part of the Ming army rushed down the stairs and entered the bottom floor of Triangle Fort to clean up the Qing troops who had not climbed to the fort to fight.

The Half Moon Fort is located in front of the main fort wall, to cover the middle embankment and the fort gate behind it. The two are two hundred yards apart. Theoretically, the shooters of the main fort and the Half Moon Fort can cover the middle area, but when the Half Moon Fort falls, only the artillery of the main fort can be attacked. The Qing army without heavy grenade guns could not use the musket to provide effective support to the Half Moon Fort.

Only artillery can cause damage to the Half Moon Fort at this distance!

"Blacking the Half Moon Fort, you can't let the Ming army stop!"

Liu Guangbi's order was not responded. The artillery groups in the main fort and the Banyue Fort are all affiliated with the Guangxin Mansion Green Camp. Even the bird gunners and the melee infantry using cold weapons account for the majority of the troops in the Guangxin Mansion Green Camp. Although the relationship between Bu Shilong and Liu Guangbi looks good, the soldiers below only listen to their own generals.

"There are many of our own brothers below. If they fire the artillery, no matter whether they are injured or not, the morale of the army will be unable to be maintained."

The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the things hurt their species. If the Lord can even kill the robes trapped outside the city without distinction, what confidence does the soldiers in the main castle have not to be abandoned by the Lord? It may be better on weekdays, but now they are just an isolated army. The unstable morale of the army may directly lead to the loss of the bastion and the collapse of the defenders, so naturally they dare not ignore it.

"If the artillery is not fired, the Ming army outside the city will gain a foothold. At that time, the soldiers will still be killed by the Ming army, and we will not be able to fall behind!"

Having said that, the soldiers around were still faintly dissatisfied, especially the Qing troops in the Green Camp of Guangxin Mansion were all glaring at each other. Liu Guangbi looked at Bu Shilong and knew that he said they would not agree. He sat down on the chair dejectedly and said nothing.

Liu Guangbi was right. The Ming army wanted to use these green camp soldiers as human shields to block the Qing army's shooting in the main fort, so now they are not in a hurry to take action, and they even did not even go forward to threaten, for fear that they would turn over the second half of the Moon Fort if they had no choice.

As the Ming army was about to attack, almost all the defenders of Banyue Fort had gathered in the upper level and prepared to fight, and there were not many reserve teams in the lower level. As a result, the Qing army on the upper level was beaten by a grenade and was directly hit. The lower level troops could not stop the Ming army's offensive at all. Soon the entire Banyue Fortress was completely reduced to the Ming army's forward position.

After the Ming army attacked the first half of the Yuebao, the auxiliary soldiers of the brigade began to climb up the fort wall as planned. Many auxiliary soldiers carried sandbags to fill the moat at the front of the Banyuebao. After climbing to the Banyuebao, the auxiliary soldiers directly hung one large basket filled with soil with ropes to the Banyuebao.

The more time went on, the more stable the forward position became. Although the Qing army was the first time in history to conduct a bastion defense war, Bu Shilong quickly reacted.

"Let them jump down, hurry!"

The distance of two hundred yards was only one hundred and eighty meters. The unional shouts of the personal soldiers who Bu Shilong reacted to it instantly reached the ears of the Qing army.

Although the Banyue Fort is lower than the main fort, it has a certain height on its own. It is almost impossible to fall if it jumps down. However, the commander has given orders. Soon, a Qing army, who was close to the protective wall, began to flip over and climbed the wall with his hands to rely on his height to shorten the fall height.

The first one succeeded. Although he sprained his ankle when he fell, his life was saved and he limped towards the main fort.

This scene immediately triggered a wave of Qing army climbing over the wall, one by one, falling down the guard wall. Some succeeded, while others failed to climb over the guard wall in panic and fell down straight, and brought some Qing troops who were climbing down. Many were even squeezed down by the Qing army farther away from the guard wall.

The Ming army did not react at all, but continued to do their work step by step. There were fewer and fewer Qing troops on the Banyue Fort, but there were a lot of wounded wails mixed with cheers from the sky under the city. But at this moment, the auxiliary soldiers of the Ming army, carried the large baskets filled with soil, and immediately triggered a wave of "jumping off the building" among the remaining Qing soldiers.

This part of the Qing army was already dominated by fear, and it was inevitable that they would be in panic. However, the Ming army did not force them further, but instead laid the baskets not far from the guard wall, and soon formed a simple new guard wall.

"Crazy."

The guard wall collapsed from the inside to the outside, and some baskets fell from the Half Moon Fort, smashing the Qing army that had just climbed down and broke its bones. Several Qing army that had not had time to jump down were buried inside.

The collapse did not cause the subsequent auxiliary soldiers to stop, but instead placed them forward more and soon completed the reinforcement of the guard wall. At this time, several artillery groups of the Ming army were transported to the Banyue Fort, and then they began to load after this simple artillery fortification.

"fire!"

The Qing army on the top of the city launched a shooting after the simple guard wall was pushed down by the Ming army. However, the Qing army's artillery's aiming technology was already problematic, and subconsciously did not want to hurt those comrades by chance, but instead they were too restricted. In addition, the original targets of the artillery in the main fort were near the Banyue Fort, which was used to provide firepower support for the Banyue Fort, the red cannons on the front pointed to the distance, and now they were going to bombard the Banyue Fort. In a hurry, the already low hit rate seemed even more pitiful.

In the first round of artillery, only the right side of the Banyue Fort was bombarded to the guardrail, and the crushed stones hit the Ming army near them, causing some damage.

At the same time, during this period, the auxiliary soldiers of the Ming army had also completed the front reinforcement of the simple guardrail and began to use these baskets to reinforce the sides. The Ming army's artillery team also completed the first round of loading, and attacked the Qing army in the main fort during this gap in the Qing army's firepower.

"fire!"

The captain of the artillery team stepped on a gunpowder barrel with his foot, and the long knife in his right hand pointed directly into the direction of the main fort. With a command, only the few artillery used by the Qing army in the middle were turned around by the Ming army's artillery team and fired at the main fort one by one.

Professional training made the Ming army's artillery hit rate far better than that of the Qing army. In addition, the main fort was already slightly higher than that of the Banyue Fort. The shells fired by the artillery that slightly raised the muzzle angle instantly played a fatal movement on the female wall and the city wall of the main fort.

"Get down quickly."

As he said that, Liu Guangbi and Bu Shilong were all knocked to the ground by their personal soldiers. The shells hit the female wall, the Qing army's artillery, the Qing army's gunners, and more on the front wall of the main fort.

The brink can use the angle of the wall to offset the shells and strengthen its anti-aircraft bombardment ability, but this does not include the frontal fortress wall, because the frontal fortress wall is essentially no different from ordinary city walls when facing artillery, so peripheral fortifications such as Triangle Fortress are needed as cover. However, when Triangle Fortress becomes the forward position of the Ming army, it will at least return to the origin here.

When the shells hit the city wall, each shell would cause a vibration. Liu Guangbi and Bu Shilong, who were knocked to the ground by their personal soldiers, could be said to have felt the most sincerely. Even every vibration would cause their hearts to suddenly shake, and the frequency of their heartbeat would change.

The shells hit the female wall, and the flying stones splashed. Although most of them either flew out or hit their personal soldiers, several shots were on Bu Shilong's neck. Even though he was thick in skin and flesh, it was hurt. Although the shells hit the Qing army artillery exhausted their kinetic energy at that moment, Xia Ran stopped, but the cannon body turned from the broken cannon carriage with the tail as the origin, and directly swept on the two Qing army gunners behind.

The cannon that had been over a thousand pounds turned around. The two Qing army gunners who were swept away without even making a sound, were knocked away by the cannons that had been servile for many years. They fell to the ground as if they had lost their bones. The first cannon who was swept down fell beside Liu Guangbi, his eyes facing him with their eyes.

After the Ming army's shelling ended, Liu Guangbi, whose hands had already begun to tremble involuntarily, was helped up by his personal soldiers who were also lingering fear, and had not even thought about what to say. Unexpectedly, when he accidentally turned his vision to the protrusion on the left, he realized that they were the real lucky ones who could "be fortunate" to bear the shelling here.

The Ming army's artillery did not point to the main fort, only a few of the artillery used by the Qing army pointed to the main fort, while the other artillery aimed at the protruding parts on both sides. The Qing army there was a greater threat to the Ming army around the Half Moon Fort and the surrounding Half Moon Fort.

While the artillery bombardment was launched against the main fort, the artillery pointed to both sides of the Ming army were also waiting for orders. The first artillery in the direction of the main fort sounded, and with the officer's orders, the artillery bombardment on both sides also began at the same time.

Unlike the front, although the number of artillery on both sides of the Ming army was small, they were all special artillery groups, and they also used fixed charge packs, so they had better grasp of aiming and angle.

The first gun pointing to the right of the Ming army sounded, and the shells cut across the sky between the forts and hit one of the Qing army's artillery with a perfect parabola, but it only destroyed the cannon and caused no casualties. But just as the deafening metal impact sounded, the second gun of the Ming army was also ignited with a fuse.

The fuse burned, and the sparks penetrated into the cannon at an extremely fast speed, as if it was a little itchy. The dark cannon sneezes, and an equally dark shell flew out in the flames and smoke.

The shells drew a perfect parabola that was just like the previous shot, but did not hit any object. However, when it hit the ground of the fortress, it bounced up and continued to fly into the distance.

The moment it bounced up, the shell drilled into the arms of a Qing army's unloading hand and passed through his chest. The loading hand was carried to the ground, but the shell was still in a state of momentum. While flying diagonally above, it hit the head of a gunner one meter away from behind like a football.

The "football" still did not stop, but the Qing army's head exploded like a watermelon, and the white and red splashed around a large area before falling down.

After the shell reached a peak diagonally upwards, it turned and flew down diagonally, roaring on the shoulder of a Qing army, before touching the ground again. However, it did not stop, at least until the kinetic energy was exhausted, the bouncing continued!

Next, the shells began to form a jumping effect from the protruding parts on the fort wall, killing eight Qing troops in a row before stopping. However, until the shells finally landed on the ground, they still smashed the calf of a Qing army.

The Qing army in the protruding part was in a mess. Although the only one shot just now flew to the city wall on the other side during the bounce, the protruding part was full of damage from the bounce shooting.

The shelling pointing to the side ended, and the loading work of the Ming army continued. After a moment of stunned silence, Liu Guangbi kicked the Green Camp officer of Guangxin Mansion who was responsible for commanding the artillery on the front fortress wall.

"Come on, fire!"

The man in his dream woke up with a word. The officer of the Green Camp of Guangxin Mansion did not wait for Bu Shilong's orders anymore. He immediately issued an order to his artillery group. He even kicked the gun captain of the slow-responsive artillery group beside him with a pretty good attitude, hoping that they could suppress the Ming army's artillery as soon as possible.

Zigzag trenches, jumping and shooting, and some other methods are used in conjunction with the use of the father of modern engineers. Marshal Vobon, who was good at building ridges and attacking ridges, won the victory of Ata's siege. Faced with different situations, Chen Wen's methods were more clever and the effect was very obvious, but this was not an end, it was just the beginning of this siege battle.
