Chapter 238 Shang Zhixin, what crime have you committed?

After the Battle of Longtoushan, Zhao Hongkui, the commander-in-chief of Zuozhen, Jinyi's personal army, who has become Zhu Heji's latest disciple, is now on an artillery position on the front line, personally controlling the twenty-two three-door three-guns assigned to him.

Heavy gun.

There is a wooden fence in front of the fort, and there is a fence in front of the wooden fence. It is difficult for the enemy in front to see what is behind the fence. However, Zhao Hongkui can get close to the fence and look out through the gaps between the fences to see clearly what is getting closer and closer.

enemy.

These enemies were all green soldiers. In front of them were shield chariots, and behind the shield chariots were shotgun soldiers. They carried shotguns with lighted matches and formed a line of three or four rows. They walked forward shivering, but they also

No one fired indiscriminately, the discipline was good!

Behind the musketeers should be archers and pikemen. From a distance, you can see the tips of several rows of spears pointing to the sky, shining with a dazzling cold light under the rising sun from the east. You can't see clearly behind them.

.

When the shield cart was pushed thirty or forty steps away from the Ming army's artillery position, a whimpering trumpet sound suddenly sounded from behind the Qing army's formation. Then all the shield carts were seen stopping at the same time!

When the shield car stopped advancing, the Qing army's musketeers erected large flags one after another. Then Zhao Hongkui saw that each big flag led dozens of musketeers to swarm between the shield cars.

The gap...

At this time, Zhao Hongkui knew that he could not wait any longer, so he pushed the fence against the wooden fence suddenly, then raised a red flag and waved it again: "Let it go!"

Following his order, a gunner who had been ready for a long time lit the match at the fire door at the rear of the cannon. The match burned out in an instant and sent the flame into the gun bore. The silk powder bag in the gun bore

The black powder was ignited instantly, and the deflagrating gunpowder released a huge amount of gas, pushing the canvas-cased shotgun out of the gun barrel at extremely fast speeds.

The canvas shotshell shell shattered into pieces of cloth the moment it rushed out of the barrel, and the lead bullets wrapped in it scattered into a large ball, roaring towards the shield car and the crowd thirty or forty steps away!

The roar and smoke emitted by the firing of this three-pound cannon, which was controlled by Zhao Hongkui personally, were also caused by the other nine (and some artillery cannons that could not reach the enemy because they were in the center of the Ming army's position) that could reach the enemy's three-pound cannon and fire.

The signal. All I saw was that the fences blocking the cannons were pushed down, nine field cannons showed their muzzles, match ropes burned rapidly, and tongues of flame spewed out from each muzzle!

Each tongue of flame turned into dozens of deadly lead bullets. Under the huge thrust generated by the explosion of gunpowder in the barrel, they rushed towards the crowd and shield vehicles in front like lightning.

Before the Qingyao Musketeers gathered between the shield cars had time to fire their first shot, they were hit by the dense lead bullets, shaking and falling over a large area, and the screams could not be suppressed.

As the rumbling sound of artillery continued, the Qing army was in chaos in front of the formation, and people fell down everywhere. Many shield cars were also hit by flying lead bullets! The wooden boards that looked very strong were often hit by a

It penetrated, and also brought up additional pieces of splinters, which hit the archers behind the shield vehicle, causing them to scream again and again.

However, the Qingyao Green Battalion and the Han army in this year are still very fierce. Even if they are bombarded, they will not retreat. Instead, under the command of the military flag, they fire back. The archers placed behind the shield cart

, also began to draw his bow and shoot arrows, shooting arrows at the Ming army's position one after another.

The fence in front of the Ming Army musketeers' position was also overturned. Turtle-dove-foot muskets were placed on sandbags and began to use the "three-stage strike" tactic, firing one or two lead bullets in rounds -

Although this turtle-foot musket is more troublesome to fire and inconvenient to carry, the projectiles fired are very powerful! It is perfect for dealing with shield vehicles!

Therefore, most of the turtle-foot muskets are aimed at the shield vehicle. The heavy lead bullets can not only easily penetrate the shield vehicle, but also stir up a cloud of broken pieces, flying in all directions, hitting many behind the shield vehicle.

The archers of the Qing army were wounded and bleeding.

And what finally started to show its power were the super-caliber shells fired by the mortars directly under the artillery leaders of each battalion!

The "Second Artillery Corps" of the Ming Army Battalion is equipped with direct-firing mortars, cannons and rocket launchers, so it is deployed behind one's own infantry positions - that is, the town's artillery is used as a machine gun on the front line, and the battalion's Second Artillery Corps

Used as a mortar behind the infantry.

Dozens of super-caliber shells that looked similar to hammers were "collapsed" out of the barrel by the black powder, drew an arc in the air, and then fell head-first into the crowd of Qing troops ahead.

The super-caliber shells launched now are already the second generation of products. A tail fin is installed behind the projectile to stabilize the ballistic trajectory. The fuse used in the projectile has also been improved and replaced with cotton thread soaked with sugar powder. The burning

The speed is relatively stable.

In other words, these super-caliber bombs are more accurate and explode more powerfully!

All I saw was that in the dense queue of Qing demons, clouds of smoke suddenly rose up! Every time a cloud of smoke rose up, a gap appeared in the crowd of Qing soldiers wearing gray-blue cloth armor! Shrapnel flew in all directions, and every time a column of smoke rose up, a gap appeared in the crowd.

There was an explosion, and a ball of flesh and blood rose up.

The casualties of the Qing army were undoubtedly huge!

If it had been the Qingyao generation when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rose, they would have almost collapsed after this battle... They were all bombarded and shot before escaping. This is simply super brave!

But now in the eleventh year of Kangxi, Guangdong's green battalion soldiers are almost at the level of "brave". They have been killed by the firepower of the Ming army, and they are still holding on!

It won’t work if you don’t persist!

Just behind these poor demon cannon fodder, only a hundred or two hundred steps away from the line of fire, Guangdong Admiral Yan Ziming and Shang Zhijie, whose father had just died, were sitting side by side on the horse!

Two large flags were erected behind them, forming the shape of a flag gate, fluttering in the wind. The one on the left said "Avenge my father!", and the one on the right said "Shang Zhijie died here!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is good to have as many sons as Shang Kexi has, and they will never die! Although dozens have died during this period, there are still dozens left! And there are still more

Hundreds of grandchildren...

Among all the children and grandchildren of Shang Kexi, Shang Zhijie is definitely the one who is most eager to avenge his father.

His eldest brother Shang Zhixin is definitely dead! His second brother Shang Zhixiao and his fifth brother Shang Zhidian just died... It's his turn to take the throne, right?

So he must perform well!

Now his cronies, Goshiha, all looked desperate. They took off their arms and stood in a row in front of him holding ghost-headed swords. They also had a row of long spears stuck in front of them, and many of them were still hanging with blood on their tips.

head!

In addition, there are wooden boxes placed at the feet of these Gosheha, and the lids have been opened. They are full of official silver! They are all fifty taels of ingots... As long as you take one and leave it in a bun

The head of the Ming army can be exchanged for one ingot immediately!

On the one hand, there is money, on the other hand, there is no mercy... and the clear demons can't help but try their best!

However, it is impossible to break through Zhu Heji's Jinyi pro-army position just by relying on such recklessness, and it will only cause unnecessary casualties.

In fact, Qingyao's real trump card is now hidden behind Shang Zhijie and Yan Ziming!

Behind the two of them, a large cart formation appeared at some point, with the carts forming an arc. There were also hundreds of shirtless green camp soldiers and feudal flag soldiers digging around the cart with shovels.

Soil, pile shovelfuls of soil onto the cart.

Behind the curved vehicle formation, a tip artillery position is almost ready! Ten "Kangxi machine guns", which are counterweighted tip artillery designed by Emperor Kangxi himself using his knowledge of geometry, have been assembled.

, each sugar mine has been placed in the throwing bag, ready to be launched at any time.

Next to the cannon are boxes of sugar mines... Deng Zhong and his men worked overtime to assemble these sugar mines last night. They are no less powerful than the Ming army's sky mines!

Although the sugar medicine formulas they use are quite different, their medicine filling capacity is large!

If this sugar mine explodes accurately, it can kill many Ming soldiers!
