Chapter 188 This is a Massacre
As a loud swan horn sounded, there were loud roars of high officers.
"fire!"
Before the roar fell, the generals of the Flag Corps also blew their iron whistles one after another. After a sharp roar, hundreds of cannons flicked together on the artillery position on the left and the baggage camp position on the right, and bursts of smoke filled the smoke. The orange-red flames of the muzzle erupted, and pieces of lead bullets and iron sand blasted out of the cannon chamber, and violently covered the bandit formation that entered the range.
The bandits following the shield and the shield chariot were charged forward before they could react, and they were already hit by fierce artillery fire. Countless screams sounded, and the originally dense formation suddenly became much thinner.
Although the bandits had seen the power of the official army's artillery fire in the battle of Lannigou, they still had no memory at this time. In other words, even if they knew that the official army's artillery fire was powerful, they didn't know how to deal with it. When they launched a breakout charge, they were still arranged in dense arrangements.
The weather was good tonight, but the stars were sparse but there was no rain. The artillery arrays on both sides were more than a thousand steps apart, forming cross firepower, which could basically cover all the bandits near the front of the official army.
Before they approached the formation, before their poor bows and arrows could shoot into the battle formation of officers and soldiers, they had already entered the range of artillery fire on both sides.
It was still so fierce that the bandits collapsed almost instantly.
Cao Cao Luo Rucai waved his hand and quickly mobilized two more bandit troops, one left and one right, rushing towards the artillery positions on both sides. The thieves were in power and could launch an attack on three sides at the same time.
Qin Liangyu's face changed slightly when he looked at the fierce fire.
Seeing the thief army attacking the artillery arrays on both sides, she took the initiative to speak and said to Mei Zhihuan, "Let my white-rod soldiers intercept them."
"No." Mei Zhihuan shook her head, "Just leave it to Liu Jun on both sides. With the nine-headed bird holding the wings, we can rest assured. The white-rod soldiers just help me sit in the front and guard this side."
In front of the cannon formations on both sides were Liu Jun's musketeers.
"shoot!"
On the high flagpole behind Liu Jun on the hillside, a lamp order for gunners to shoot was raised. The generals of each musket team saw the order from afar and issued shooting orders to the team members.
The musketeers stood behind the cannons in rows and fired with guns in a standing position. Although it was dark, there were many fires below. They did not need to aim at the enemy. They just needed to fire volleys against the bandits who had entered the range with their teammates.
The first row of gunners shot, the second row of gunners took them again, and then the third row.
Due to the use of fixed-loading paper bullets and the improved flying dragon gun, many loading steps were saved. Therefore, after the three-stage shooting, the Jiutou's musket fired almost no pauses, and the shooting intervals of rounds were extremely short and continuous.
Chong Chong Chong, as long as you withstand the front few rounds of shooting, you can enter the firearm position of the official army. At that time, these official army will be able to slaughter them. The thieves and bandit leaders behind kept shouting to boost morale, or to deceive the bandits.
"The official arms firearms can only be fired three times in the battle. They will rush forward and fight in close combat. The official army's fire guns are even worse than fire sticks!"
"Hmph, stupid, the Nine-Headed Bird's firearms unit is not as simple as you imagined!" Liu Jun stood in the artillery formation, and heard these shouts from afar, and couldn't help but sneer. Three shots in the last battle, you are talking about the three-eyed gun. With the Nine-Headed Bird's tactical battle formation, let alone three shots, you may not be able to rush over even thirty shots.
Unless you are the Jianlu heavy cavalry outside the pass, you can rush to the front of the formation with a volley.
Now I am facing a group of bandits, and Liu Jun doesn't have to worry at all.
The Nine-Headed Birds not only have muskets, but also cannons. Not to mention tiger squats and enemy cannons, the Franchise machines of the Nine-Headed Birds can kill bandits and bandits who are desperately collapsed. Each Franchise machine is equipped with nine sub-guns, which can enable the Franchise to fire continuously, and then several guns are combined into a group of segmented shooting, so that they can truly achieve uninterrupted shooting.
The hundreds of small leads per gun made the Nine-Headed Bird's gunfire shooting greatly reduced the range, but each shooting was a covered attack.
Liu Jun spent a huge price and equipped these artillery, how could a group of bandits break through just by relying on the tactics of the sea of people?
The war drums were beating and the horns were chirping. The gunners were skillfully loading and firing, and piece of lead bullets and iron sand were shot out. The hundred-step slope in front of the cannon array was completely a death zone, and as much as they approached, they fell down as much as they could. The big lead could easily smash the shields, and the small iron sand was so dense that it was impossible to escape the net.
Whether it is artillery or muskets, the loading and firing speed of the officers and soldiers is extremely fast. It is beyond the imagination of the bandits and the rapidity makes them collapse.
The thieves finally plucked up the courage, but for less than half an hour, they collapsed before the continuous artillery fire, melting the ice and snow. Leaving the corpses all over the ground, they finally turned around and retreated.
The bandits attacking the artillery array on both wings retreated, but they could not immediately escape the bombardment of the officers and soldiers' artillery fire.
Several red-clothed cannons that had not been moved had roared loudly. One shot could bombard a thousand steps away with a huge red-clothed cannon.
Two giant red cannons roared at the same time, and a huge whistling sound rang through the sky. One shell fell into the mountain on the left, and one shell fell into the old camp in the back of the bandits. The huge shells caused hundreds of casualties at once, especially the power that could hit the old camp at a distance of thousands of steps, which made the families of the bandits' bandits' families frightened and collapsed.
Liu Jun, holding a thousand-mile mirror, also saw the results of the two cannons, one of which was lost and the other was hit.
"I beat you beautifully and went straight to the old camp of the bandits."
The gunner, who was praised by Liu Jun, was a little red in his face. He was embarrassed, but he was thinking in his heart that my cannon was clearly aimed at the thieves' central army, but he actually shot the back of the rear army and hit the old camp of the thieves. He was really a ghost and missed it.
Half a day later, the red cannons that had been cleaned up the cannon chamber and loaded opened fire again. At the same time, eight thousand-pound red cannons also opened fire. This time, only three of the ten cannons hit the enemy formation, but their power was still extraordinary. Especially the terrifying threat that could hit the formation between hundreds of steps and even one or two miles apart was really a collapse of the bandits and bandits, and they were completely hung and beaten, but they couldn't even see the cannon.
The large and small cannons on the cannon formations on both sides showed their power again. This time they turned the guns to attack the bandits on the front, and were equipped with cannons and musketeers arranged on the front, so the bandits on the front could not make any progress.
Qin Liangyu stood in front of the formation, looking at the Shizhu soldiers who had been holding a white spear and were eager to try it out. After waiting for a long time, he could not wait for a bandit to rush forward.
"This is simply a one-sided massacre!" Qin Liangyu sighed.
As the elite white-rod soldier in the world, he could only stand there and watch, and he didn't even have the chance to fight.
The bandit retreated, and no one could withstand such a terrifying blow, but he could not help but be beaten.
"It's time for the cavalry to attack, it's time for them to move their bodies, don't just watch the show." Mei Zhihuan looked at the one-sided battle with satisfaction, but he didn't plan to let the bandits retreat easily.
The cavalry who received the order finally turned over their horses. They rode their horses out from the right chariot formation, then slowly accelerated, and finally shouted at the retreating thieves.
The cavalry waved their swords and horses, and quickly approached the bandits with the high speed of the war horses, then cut them down, and rushed over quickly. More than two thousand cavalry rushed repeatedly behind the retreating bandits, scattering the originally defeated bandits.
"Okay, take back the cavalry." Mei Zhihuan looked at the bandits who had already run out of the artillery range and quickly ordered the cavalry to be transferred back. The cavalry attacked to attack the morale of the bandits, but it was not up to them to defeat tens of thousands of bandits.
But with the buffering of the cavalry, the Jiaozhi infantry, who were pressed backwards, finally settled their positions again outside the thin station surrounded by fences. However, everyone's face was blue and white, and they were so shocked that they looked at the Song army opposite with fear. One battle was a vivid expression of the Song army's sharpness.
"The thief collapsed, they will not come to die again." Qin Liangyu said slowly.
"It's good that we can kill the bandits and force them to surrender and win without fighting." Mei Zhihuan said with a smile.
A white flag was extremely conspicuous, and a thief rode his horse in front of the formation holding a white flag.
He brought the request from Cao Cao and others, and they requested surrender again.
This time, he did not come alone, and there were a group of thieves and several carriages behind him.
The carriage was taken by the officers and drove back to the camp.
Liu Jun was summoned to the Central Army by Mei Zhihuan. As soon as he arrived, he saw dozens of boxes placed on the ground. The boxes were all opened, all of which were yellow and white, full of gold and silver, and many jewelry and jade.
"This is almost worth 100,000 taels of silver. It seems that the bandits are anxious," Liu Jun said with a smile.
Mei Zhihuan nodded and said, "The bandits wanted to buy a way with the bribe of the golden bank, but they were looking for the wrong person. I guess they would run north after we refused."
"Then we will pursue it." Liu Jun said.
The messenger sent out brought Mei Zhihuan's reply back, and the conditions were still the same as before. He accepted surrender, but he had to put down his weapons and walked to the front of the formation to surrender one by one.
"Is this the only way?" Cao Cao was unwilling to accept it, but he was helpless. They thought they could rush out, but there was no hope at all. If they continued to waste here, Yang Sichang would definitely get it. At that time, there would be a blockage on both sides and they would not even think of running away.
"Report, there is a change in Dachang City." A detective arrived, bringing the latest news about Dachang City.
"The Qin army suddenly mutinyed, robbing friendly troops of food and horses and mules and returning to Shaanxi. The Henan army went to recover it. Yang Sichang temporarily stationed in Dachang City. However, the army's food and grass were about to be exhausted, and grain was being collected everywhere." After Cao Cao and Luo Rucai saw the military situation, he suddenly couldn't help laughing.
"There is no way to go, and there is no way to go!"
The sudden mutiny of the Qin army and the departure of the Henan army made there not many official troops in Dachang City, and there were still about 20,000. Now the 20,000 people have to be out of food.
I thought I was going to be trapped here, but unexpectedly, God suddenly gave him another way of life. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
