Chapter 1443: Fortified City

This principle is very simple. The cannon has a large caliber and heavy shells, and the power of flowering and explosion will naturally be great. In this era, it is impossible to truly give birth to grenades and flowering bullets. The smoothbore cannon is installed in front, and the chamber pressure during firing is too high, and the hollow flowering bullet is hollow.

It will inevitably explode.

Despite this, the city defense Xuanwu cannons equipped under the Turkestan Admiral's Office are still the most powerful artillery of this era.

"Four miles!"

Amid the roar, dense crowds of people advanced to four miles, which was the best killing distance for Xuanwu cannons.

Gripping his teeth, Lee Seung-en shouted: "Fire!"

The flags on the city tower were immediately rolled up. The gunmen on the fortresses on both sides saw the flag and immediately waved the flags in their hands and shouted loudly: "Fire the cannon!"

Each Xuanwu cannon is equipped with a regular soldier and an auxiliary soldier, which requires more than 30 people to operate. There are three gunners on the left and right sides of the cannon. The cannon has already loaded ammunition. At this moment, when he heard the order, he immediately had a gunner next to each cannon.

, from the side, holding a burning torch and lit a long gunpowder twist.

"Test-fire guns!"

Boom, boom, there were a few sudden loud noises, the earth was shaking, and several Xuanwu cannons fired one after another. Li Chengen felt that his feet were shaking violently, and he almost became unstable and made a fool of himself. He hurriedly grabbed the wall bricks beside him, and forced himself to do so.

I was calm and felt a little nervous. It was inappropriate to be so embarrassed as the commander of the three armies.

Looking left and right, no one could care about him at this time. With the rumbling cannon, the sound of this thing was too loud when it was fired. Everyone looked pale, and the unstable foothold became a rolling gourd.

Under the city, he stared at the shells of four buckets of water, soared into the sky. Four hollow iron balls with light smoke tracks drew a strange parabola and flew far away to the dense enemy group.

A sharp whistling sounded, and a loud bang, an iron ball fell from the sky, hitting the back half of the enemy group. The gunpowder twist burned to the end, and suddenly dust flew, fragments shot up, and a shrill scream and howling sounded.

The hollow shell exploded when it landed, causing the fragments torn torn blood on the faces of dozens of people around it, and howled down.

Poisonous smoke and the black smoke produced when the gunpowder exploded mixed together and formed a small mushroom black cloud. Four mushroom black clouds, with different distances and heights, but their power was jaw-dropping. Soon the poisonous smoke

It dispersed, with a violent coughing sound mixed with the screams. I raised the thousand-mile mirror and bridged the injured who had not died for a while. I just rolled on the ground and screamed and rolled.

These four terrifying hollow shells falling from the sky killed at least more than a hundred slave soldiers. Even the Ming army watching the battle on the city had never seen Xuanwu cannon fire, and they were all dumbfounded. The Turkic soldiers with unstable morale were trembling, trembling with two trembling twitching

Some people even urinated their pants. The power of this Xuanwu cannon was too terrifying.

"good!"

A moment later, the city wall was thundering, and Lee Seung-en slapped his legs heavily and shouted, "Get good at fighting, remember the merits."

"Remember the merits and give merits to the cannon camp!"

Amid the screams, the four Xuanwu City defense cannons began to load the medicine. The shell was accurate and fierce, which exacerbated the morale of its own military.

"Recharge!"

The artillery team officers on both sides saw this result from a distance, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they also ordered the gunners to charge the medicine loudly. More than 30 people were busy, and they turned the cannon gun on the slide rails downwards, and they were short and strong.

The solid loader was bare-handed and began to clean the scorching gunbomb, carry medicine bags and shells. This thing was powerful enough, but it was very inconvenient to load it. Fortunately, it was fixed on the ring slide, so resetting was very convenient.

The genius design of the ring-shaped slide rail greatly improved the shooting frequency of the Xuanwu cannon. After half a quarter of an hour of busyness, the loader and gunners adjusted one after another. Everyone stood solemnly and tidied up, and the heavy cannon was pushed along the slide rail again.

Go up and start adjusting the angle with the gun gauges.

"put!"

Rumble, the terrifying roar of the cannon sounded again, and each roar of the Xuanwu cannon was like a heavy hammer, hammering against the heart of the leader of the Osman Ceddy, making him panic and short of breath, with a pale face a little abnormally

.There were four regiments of black smoke rising and poisons filled the cannon fodder army composed of more than 10,000 slave soldiers, and were bombarded by the four-gate city defense cannons. The defeated slave army spread its feet and ignored the Ottoman cavalry supervision team.

He stopped him, howled, pushed him, and rolled back like a tide.

"The enemy soldiers are defeated!"

"Haha, boom, boom me!"

Another half a quarter of an hour later, a huge cannonball drew a strange parabola, descended from the sky with a sharp whistling sound. But a cannon shot missed, and the cannonball drew a strange arc and headed straight for a group of Ottoman cavalry supervising teams.

It went. With a loud bang, several riders were blown up by the terrifying shock wave. The strong war horse flew high into the sky like a toy, and then fell down and smashed several people.

Outside the city covered with thick smoke and poisonous fog, tens of thousands of Ottoman troops retreated in a panic. This retreat took ten miles, and the defeated army stabilized its position under the constraints of the cavalry supervision team. The terrified Chedi

I also looked at the towering and tall city walls in the distance, and was surprised and suspicious. The semi-nomadic Ottomans had never seen such a terrifying city defense cannon, and Europeans probably didn't have such a terrifying cannon.

Cheddy's face turned pale and ordered people to execute hundreds of slaves who had escaped first, but his heart was trembling. He had outstanding military talent. At this moment, looking at the black smoke drifting with the wind, he suddenly realized a terrible fact.

The era of the Ottomans is over.

Chedi is truly a military talent, but unfortunately he was born in the wrong era. The terrifying Xuanwu cannon on the Turkestan city announced the history of world wars and entered the era of battalion offensive and defensive wars. The Ming people took the attitude of a builder.

, conquered the world in a way that was different from Westerners.

Westerners were destroyers and robbers, and the Ming people conquered the world in a completely different way.

The Ming people had a special habit of building and building cities, which was a deep-rooted obsession, otherwise where did the Great Wall come from? When the Ming people seized the fruitful achievements of the Western Renaissance, they learned a lot and bound the Ming Empire.

When Confucian etiquette and law were loosened, this huge empire broke free from the cage of thought and technology like a wild horse.

From then on, after the Battle of Turkestan, the Ming city defended by the battalions and giant cannons became mountains that were insurmountable for rebels and ambitious people.

The next day, Ottoman Vizierchedi gritted his teeth and launched another siege. He rode on the horse, and the gray-faced Chedi looked at the towering giant city from afar, and his heart became entangled and felt a strong sense of powerlessness. The Ottomans
