Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 128 Hundred Cannons
"What are you doing?! Go back quickly!" Between the stone steps of the city wall, a group of terrified soldiers fled down the city wall under the sound of fierce artillery, but was stopped by the city guard.

"My lord, the Liao army's artillery fire is too fierce, brothers dare not stay on it! Staying on it is death!" The golden soldier who fled down the city wall looked desperate.

"Bastard, those who flee without authorization will be killed without mercy! Do you want to be killed by the artillery of the Liao Army, or do you want to be executed by me now?!" The city guard said fiercely.

The golden soldiers who fled the battle looked at me and I looked at you, gritted their teeth: "Brothers, let's go back."

boom--

Dozens of meteor-like solid bullets and blooming bullets fell from the sky, pouring down on the city wall of Nancheng regardless of the cost.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" A golden soldier hiding behind the city wall cried out when he saw the misery of his companion next door.His companion was also hiding behind the city wall, but the artillery shells from the Liao army pierced through the battlements, smashing half of his companion's head to pieces, and the white and red ones scattered all over the ground. Can't help vomiting!

"fire!"

The artillery of the artillery brigade excitedly lit the artillery fuse on the artillery position with a torch, and then hid on one side.

boom!The artillery was full of flames, the smoke filled the air, and the deadly shells were ejected!All the hundreds of artillery pieces of the Artillery Brigade were deployed on the front line, and began to bombard the south wall of Jinzhou City!

"The grenade troops suppress the defenders on the wall! The cannon and mortar troops hit me at one point!" David Dong gave the order according to the original deployment.

Not only the artillery from the Artillery Brigade, but now even some artillery from the [-]st, [-]rd, and [-]th Brigades have been brought to the South City to focus on bombing the South City Wall!According to Chu Yun's intelligence and observations, the southern city wall was the weakest, and a section of the city wall that was relatively vulnerable was selected as the bombing target.

On the artillery position of the Artillery Brigade, gunpowder smoke filled almost half of the battlefield. When I barely poked my head out from the city wall to look down, I could only see flames and white smoke coming out of the Liao Army's position, but I can't see how many terrible artillery pieces the Fuliao Army has placed on their positions.

Chu Yun was on the high ground of the first brigade's position, looking at the artillery position filled with gunpowder with military binoculars, and his heart was surging.One or two hundred years later, Napoleon's cannon tactics were first used by himself, and these hundreds of cannons were launched, and it was almost impossible for the city walls of Haizhou City, which were barely able to resist cold weapons, to survive.Unless it is Nanjing City, the capital city with abnormally thick walls and some strong bastions, it will not be afraid of the attack of black powder.

"Let General Liu Xingzuo of the third brigade get ready to charge. After the wall collapses, he will rush into the city and occupy the gap." Chu Yun ordered.

Liu Xingzuo of the 3000rd Brigade brought more than [-] Musketeers of the [-]rd Infantry Brigade to the front of the Artillery Brigade's position according to the deployment. As long as there is a gap in the city wall, these Musketeers will launch a bayonet charge and rush into the city.

The deadly shells whizzed past the heads of the infantrymen of the third brigade, and then bombarded heavily on the south city wall, smashing the ancient city wall into cracks like spider webs. Each bombardment took away a bunch of gravel!As the masonry outside the city wall was crushed, the soil inside was gradually exposed!
"Hey, the artillery brigade is too fierce. If the bombardment continues like this, we probably don't have to charge the infantry brigade, and the Jinren will surrender!" The soldiers of the third infantry brigade who were waiting to charge at the front line hid behind their positions and looked at them. The trembling southern city wall was bombarded by hundreds of artillery pieces from the artillery brigade, and they couldn't help sighing.

"After this battle is over, I'll switch to artillery. Seeing how fun they are with firing cannons, I want to try my hand at it." An old soldier shouted.

"Their artillery can bomb from a long distance, but if we really want to take down the city, we still need our infantry to fight the enemy with muskets and bayonets. Their artillery can't put bayonets on the cannons!"

"Hahaha."

The infantrymen of the third brigade who were on standby teased each other, which made the nervous recruits feel less uneasy.

Compared with the well-prepared Liao Army, the Eight Banners soldiers guarding the city were completely fooled.The Fuliao Army has not moved in the past few days, but whenever there is movement, it is a thunderbolt, making all the Eight Banners soldiers guarding the city busy in a panic.It was the southern city wall that was bombarded by the heavy artillery fire from the Liao Army, so the two defenders, Bel Amin and Yue Tuo, immediately sent reinforcements to the southern city.Nearly [-] soldiers guarded the southern city.

There are enough troops, but A Min and Yue Tuo found that no one dared to go up to the city wall to defend the city!The original defenders on the city wall were knocked out by the intensive artillery bombardment of the Liao Army, and suffered heavy casualties. They couldn't even raise their heads to fight back.And fight back?How could one's own crossbow bolt hit the opponent's artillery position one mile away?

The defenders on the city wall were almost exhausted, and no Niulu was willing to go up to support them. They were afraid that they would also be bombarded by the Liao army's artillery when they went up!Some golden soldiers in the city dare not even approach the city wall, because occasionally stray bullets with a longer range will cross the city wall and fall on the houses near the city wall!

"Take your Jiala Niulu up to the city wall to support them!" Amin saw that there were constantly routs on the city wall trying to escape, so he forced Tu to defend along the city wall to stabilize the morale of the army.

It is impossible to have no defenders on the city wall, otherwise the Liao army will climb up the city wall with ladders under the cover of artillery, and the city wall will fall!
"Master Baylor, I...I..." Tu Yan, who was named by Amin, stammered.If you want to go up by yourself at this time, wouldn't you let yourself go to die?
"Didn't you say that if the Liao army attacked the city today, you would take your Jiala and drive them away? Go up, if you die in battle, I will take care of your wife and children." Amin said with a straight face.

"Die or die, everyone follow me!" Tu Yan really wanted to slap himself a few times, who made him say so.

Tu Yanmian reluctantly led his subordinates to the city wall for reinforcements with cannons.

At this moment, the tense strings in Amin's heart were a little more stable.

Rumble! ! ! !The loud bang, heavier than all the artillery on the battlefield, exploded!If the sound of artillery bombardment is like an earthquake, then this loud noise is simply an earthquake!Like a mountain collapsed, a section of the southern city wall could not withstand the concentrated bombardment of the Liao Army's artillery fire and collapsed!The dozens of defenders on the city wall couldn't dodge in time, and fell into the pile of rubble as the city wall collapsed!Dust swept across the sky, making it difficult to open your eyes!
