Chapter 1278 The tiger is super fierce!
"Bohai men avenged the Great Yuan Kingdom and the Gao Emperor..."
When the Bohai people in armor approached the two prismatic forts on the west side of Yanzi Fort, a Bohai Mouke suddenly shouted loudly.
The Bohai soldiers following him also roared: "Avenge Emperor Gao! Kill!"
Most of these scholars were children of the right surname of Bohai. The Zhou State not only destroyed their Bohai Yuan State, but also seized their industries along the Liao River. They all destroyed their country and had to commit suicide, and they had to go to the Jurchens to survive.
This is the national hatred and family hatred together!
So today there is no need to mobilize Aguda and Wanyan Zongbi, and the Bohai people all charged with red eyes.
But as I rushed forward, something was wrong, as if I had rushed into a trap!
The design of the prismatic castle is very cruel! Take Swallow Fort as an example. The prismatic castle extending from any adjacent two corners of the octagonal castle will form an inverted trapezoidal shape on one side of the octagonal castle.
Because the front of the castle is too narrow, it is almost a head with a loss of edge and cannot be launched at all. Therefore, if you want to attack the enemy of the castle, you must rush into this inverted trapezoid.
After entering the inverted trapezoid, they will be under the cross fire of the defenders on the front and the two sides!
There are no blind spots and no way to hide!
Li Xiaozhong deployed 2 6 jin cannons on each prismatic fort, and another 2 6 jin cannons were placed on the walls of the Babian Fort to be deployed manually.
Since Wanyan Zongbi only chose two adjacent prismatic castles as the target of attack, Li Xiaozhong mobilized the two cannons on the city wall to the corresponding position.
As the target of attack, a prismatic fortress numbered West One, as well as the artillery on the prismatic fortress adjacent to them, which were also adjusted to ensure that the enemies in the two "inverted trapezoids" will be bombarded by cross-fire power from 4 6-jin cannons in three directions. The cannons placed on the stunning fortress are not fixed, but field cannons that can move. The cannons on the stunning fortress are also more than cannons (there are still too few cannons), so they can be deployed flexibly.
There were 8 cannons on the three castles and two walls, all of which were filled with shotguns, which were called iron sand bullets.
The name is iron sand bullet, but it is actually filled with iron beads, wrapped in soft deer skin, and stuffed into the cannon chamber.
The cannon position used to set up the cannon is also carefully designed. The cannon position has been raised a little, and the mercedes in front of the cannon are very low so that the cannon can fire downwards.
In addition, there is a bunker made of wood and sandbags above the cannon to prevent the cannon from being smashed by stones thrown by the opponent's launcher, and it also has the function of rainproofing.
"Start a cannon!"
"ignition!"
"boom……"
With the orders of the gun captains of each gun, the fire line was ignited, and the shotgun was sprayed out of the cannon chamber, and the cannon body suddenly retreated. Countless tiny iron beads were swept by huge thrust under the action of the ignition of gunpowder, like dense raindrops, swept towards the Bohai people below.
It was the crossfire power of four cannons from three directions at the same time! The deadly iron beads fell from the sky and hit the helmets, shoulder pads, or the round shields that were pressed against the Bohai people's heads.
Then the human head was broken, or the iron beads penetrated into the human body from somewhere, smashing all the bones, internal organs, and flesh... Whether the head was broken or the internal organs were broken, they didn't even scream, and they died. However, some Bohai warriors were miserable, with their arms or legs broken, and fell to the ground, rolling and screaming in their blood, but they couldn't scream for too long, and there was no sound.
The first wave rushed into the two inverted trapezoidal areas and six moukkers, with a total of 1,800 Bohai iron armored soldiers. They were all elite soldiers trained with Zhou style tactics, and they were also "prepared for three battles". When using spears and bows and arrows, they could completely withstand the impact of armored cavalry.
If it is an infantry duel, the elite soldiers of Zhou's state may not be the opponents of this group of Bohai people who are full of national hatred and family hatred.
But in the face of "truth", they were just a bunch of flesh and blood, a group of cannon fodder, no different from the group of Xiangjun who made a living in the Song Dynasty.
So the warriors armed with iron armor, sword shields and hatred were completely destroyed in the first round of shooting of 8 6 close guns.
A total of 2,500 cast iron beads were installed in the 8 shotguns. Under the power of gunpowder, the two inverted trapezoid areas turned into a complete hell of death. The Bohai warriors, known as "three people become one tiger", were defeated one by one.
The Bohai people who escaped by luck were also frightened by the sudden blow. Why couldn't they figure out why, after a few loud bangs, the Bohai warriors like iron towers shot warm blood and fell to the ground in various strange postures!
Is this a magic trick?
"Boom..."
Before these frightened Bohai iron armored soldiers could react, the second round of artillery fire began. There were still 8 shotguns, 2,500 iron beads falling from the sky, sweeping down many Bohai people standing there in a daze. Then the third round of volley shots
After the third round of shotgun shooting, the remaining Bohai iron-armored soldiers could no longer hold back and did not care about the strict military orders. After someone screamed, they turned around and ran like crazy, leaving behind dead bodies, weapons, and ladders for climbing the city...
At this time, outside the "inverted trapezoidal death area", the Bohai people carrying bows and arrows were also frightened and all stood there stupidly, and no one dared to take another step forward.
All the iron-armored soldiers in front of them were killed. Are these people in leather still going to die?
But if you don’t go up, you can’t shoot arrows at this position! The effective range of the bow and arrow is only a few dozen steps, and now you are still shooting from bottom to top, and the range is closer.
The effective range of cannons fired shotguns is 200 steps, and these cannons are still on high places, and there is also a bonus in range.
This is called how to shoot Bohai archers? It is impossible to reach the archery outside the 200 steps. If you have to go to a distance of 100 or 100 steps, you will shoot at least three shotguns... Will you still be breathing at that time?
"Dangdangdang..."
Just when the Bohai archers were afraid to advance and could not retreat, Wanyan Zongbi, who was supervising the battle in a car behind, finally ordered the sound of gold.
Of course, Jin Wushu is not a fool, otherwise he would not have been able to survive Zhao Gou's killing Feiyan and other people in history.
So after the opponent's three shotgun bombardment knocked down at least 800 Bohai heroes, Wanyan Zongbi realized that the strange fortress in front of him could not be captured by him!
Maybe you can break through the castle by siege or digging tunnels, but it is impossible to break through the castle by strong attack.
...
"Father, if you can't beat it, it's not worth it even if you hit it... Now you can only try digging tunnels and blasting."
When Wanyan Zongbi ran to Aguda to report with a gloomy face, the founding emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom had a calm expression, as if he was not his own army, but his enemy's troops.
"Is it useful to dig tunnels?" A Guda smiled, "Isn't the tactic of digging tunnels to blast the siege? Isn't it created by Wu Haogu? Do you think Zhou's army will be prepared?"
"This..." Wanyan Zongbi turned his head and looked at Yanzibao, frowned.
The location where he and Aguda are located is very far from Yanzi Fort, 1,500 steps away. The reason why they are so far away is that they are afraid of being bombarded by the Zhou army's artillery.
The large group of Jin soldiers was also far away from Yanzi Fort, and the closest one was 1,200 steps.
If you want to choose a safer distance to start digging the tunnel, you have to go up to 700 or 800 steps? This project is amazing!
There is another problem. Because the Zhou army's artillery is too powerful and the castle is designed in a tricky way, the moat that protects the city is under the full control of the Zhou army...
In other words, once the Zhou army discovered the approximate location of the Jin soldiers digging the tunnel, they could deepen the trench in the corresponding area to block the tunnel. By burying the pot and listening to the ground, the general location of the Jin soldiers digging the tunnel can be found!
Therefore, it is very unreliable to use the method of digging tunnels to bury gunpowder.
Wanyan Zongbi shook his head and said, "It's not possible to dig the tunnel... This city is very close to Yuanyanglu, so it's impossible to cut off the water source. Then there's only the siege of the city!"
Yanzi Fort is next to the north bank of Yuanyanglu. The two outcasts in the south of the city are less than a hundred steps away from Yuanyanglu. Yuanyanglu is completely within the range of the cannon shotgun.
Therefore, it is impossible for the Jin soldiers to cut off the water source of Swallow Fort with a shotgun.
The water source cannot be broken, and the crypt blasting cannot be done. Too many people have been killed. After thinking about it, I can only siege the city.
But how long will it take to besiege?
"How many people are there in the Zhou people's castle? How much food is there?" Aguda asked his son, "How much food do we have? How long can we surround the city?"
"Father, are we going to withdraw our troops?" Wanyan Zongbi took a breath, "This is not good for the army..."
Agu waved his hand and smiled and said, "Hundreds of people died are nothing! If the city is strong and lasts for a long time, then it will be shameless!
Send an order, withdraw your troops!"
"They are extremely erect..."
"Try it again!"
"Let our young master warriors come on!"
There were still several Jurchen generals around who were unwilling to give up and asked for a fight.
A Gu's face darkened: "I touched the tiger's butt, and was scratched by the tiger's claws. Just know that this is not touched! Do you have to be bitten to death by a tiger? What if we can kill this tiger? You have also seen the castle of Zhou people, it was made up in a hurry. Let's go out and tens of thousands of people pounce on this city. There are so many castles like the Zhou Kingdom. How many of our Jurchens have? "
After Wanyan Aguda said that, the Jurchen generals stopped talking. It was not because Aguda had a high prestige, but because this was reasonable.
The Jurchen group can prosper, and it must be realistic and reasonable. Otherwise, just their little capital will be gone if they are not careful, and it will be a big deal!
"Duo Fei Lie, what should we do next?" Wanyan Wu Qimai asked.
Agu laughed, "First go northeast, go to the thousand-mile pine forest, and then turn back west! It's time to go to the Hetao grassland!"
