Win the Ding 1617

ps: Continue to have the audacity to ask for monthly tickets!

Wu Biao adopted a traditional wicked siege tactic.

Hundreds of regiment warriors captured in the Shekeng battle carried heavy straw bags filled with soil, and under the supervision of his soldiers, they slowly walked towards the west wall of the village.

"Don't fire! Don't shoot arrows! They're all my family!"

The survival instinct made these coolies who were responsible for filling the trenches keep shouting at the people defending on the top of the city.

"That's my brother!"

"My nephew!"

"That's the neighbor next to my house. Damn it, I've cooked Lao Doujiang with him before, and I can't do it any better!"

"Hey! Looking at their crab-like appearance, I thought they were all selling salted duck eggs. I don't want to be alive!"

In this sound of calling for brothers and brothers, the people responsible for filling the trench under the city approached the outer trench.

"What are you doing here? Drinking tea?! This is a war! Your own son is under the city, and now he is helping the Nanzhong thief!"

The leader of the clan house who was in charge of this section of the wall jumped up and down and yelled, regardless of his seniority, he waved his weapons and tried to threaten his subordinates with force to fire and shoot arrows down the city.

Before the words were finished, two mortar shells fell from the sky and landed squarely on the grass plant where people were resting and drinking tea just now. The dry thatch was quickly ignited, and thick smoke rose from the top of the city.

Not far away, some timid gangster saw this and screamed, "No! It's on fire!"

"Run!"

Dozens of people pushed away the leader who was trying to stop them, while running wildly on the wall.While yelling.

Suddenly, the city fell into chaos.

Some people were at a loss and ran around shouting, and the content of the shouting changed from "on fire" to "the city is broken!"

The second master of the Guan family, who was in charge of defending the West Village Wall, was so angry that he lost his strength and led hundreds of regiments on the horse road to surround him. Then he arrested the group of guys who were like headless flies and tied them to the gate of the ancestral hall. forward.

"I'll treat you bastards who have eaten tofu! The Nanzhong thieves outside are our enemies who tore up the grave and seized the Huijinbao!" , like a deep hatred) They came in. Our whole clan is going to die! You guys who can’t see an inch in length! I don’t know how many people died. Better than the whole village?!"

"Da Ximu!" ​​Someone in the crowd knelt on the ground and cursed inwardly, "There are no cubs of yours outside the city!"

This sentence is also in Chaozhou dialect, and it probably means partiality, standing and talking without back pain.

During this short period of chaos, the people responsible for filling the trench under the city had already rushed to the edge of the trench.Throw the straw bag on your back into the ditch.The splashed water made me drenched all over, but I didn't care about it.Several people worked together to tie a thick straw rope to the deer stockade that was made of tree crowns.Strive to pull the deer village away.

"on!"

Wu Biao waved the command flag, and more than a hundred firecrackers immediately jumped up and rushed straight to the trench.

On the edge of the ditch.The musketeers lined up in two rows, and first they fired two salvos into the city, and the dense bullets sent Zhai Ding, who was trying to throw stones, flying backwards.

"Hey! Keep filling the trench!"

Wu Biao ordered the coolies to continue to fill the trench under the cover of artillery fire and firecrackers.At least the ladder must be able to pass through.

"Although the officers and soldiers are fighting fiercely in the east, they don't plan to enter the city there. The west and south are where they want to break the city!"

Seeing more than a dozen long bamboo ladders in Wu Biao's team, Liu Ting'an, the leader of the meeting, suddenly realized that he hurriedly ordered the regiment warriors gathered in front of the ancestral hall to reinforce the West Wall, and don't let the officers and soldiers break the wall from there!

"Clap clap clap..."

More than 100 gunmen fired in turn, and the white smoke quickly rose and condensed into a white smoke wall, which could not dissipate above the head for a long time. The shooting in turn made up for the lack of accuracy, and beat the villagers in the city terribly. The screams are endless.

Wu Biao saw that it was cheap, and ordered the soldiers around him to second a post of firecrackers to Ou Dapeng.

"We don't have enough gunners, tell him, I promise to return the borrowed man without a single hair missing!"

Soon, the gunners rushed under the wall of the West Village.They handed over positions with the firecrackers just now, and provided fire cover for the coolies who filled the trenches.

Under the alternate cover of artillery fire and firecrackers, trench filling and barrier breaking proceeded more smoothly.

Seeing that the ditch has been filled with straw bags and the deer village outside the ditch has been cleaned up, there are bursts of wailing and crying in the city. In Wu Biao's team, a ladder was carried by the siege forwards. The shoulders are ready to wait for the commander to rush into the city wall.Suddenly, there was a loud sound of rockets firing from the top of the city.Amidst the rising and falling sounds, a large cloud of smoke rose, and countless arrows roared down the city.

Driven by the gunpowder, the arrows lined up in a dense formation, and with a grim smile of death, they rushed to the coolies who were trying to fill the trench in a blink of an eye.

This rocket is actually a paper tube containing ten or thirty rockets, which are powered by gunpowder and can fly a distance of [-] steps. Qi Jiguang has always been respected by Qi Jiguang in various places in the border town, and he believes that its lethality is better than a nest of beacons. Wait for the rocket.These rockets are about six feet long, shaped like swords or knives, or three-edged like arrowheads, the whole body weighs more than two catties, and they are most lethal within a hundred steps.I don't want to have this thing in this village in northern Guangdong!I think it should be that Qi Jiguang promoted it in Guangdong when he was the commander-in-chief of Guangdong, and it was mastered by the ancestors of this Taoyuan village!

As the rockets flew around with irregular trajectories, the situation above and below the city immediately reversed. The people on the city were smiling and their morale was boosted, while the people below the city were screaming incessantly.Hundreds of coolies who were trying to clear the obstacles and the soldiers of the South Central Army holding firecrackers to suppress the defenders at the top of the city were immediately shot to the ground.

All of a sudden, the defenders on the city wall cheered and jumped like chicken blood.The offensive of the South China Army under the Xizhai Wall was temporarily blocked.

Hearing the screams from outside the city, the regiment members who were still timid just now became more courageous.

"Okay! Just hit like this!"

Zhang Tingyu, who took over from the second child of the Guan family to command the defense at the Xizhai Wall, praised the regiment members loudly.

"Third Master. It seems that many of the dead outside are our acquaintances?"

"Nonsense! They are all Nanzhong thieves!"

Zhang Tingyu stared and reprimanded the group member who questioned the results of the battle.

"Hurry up and get the stone ready! He has Zhang Liang's plan, and I have a wall ladder!"

Under the rain of arrows all over the sky, facing the arrows falling from the sky like a storm and rainstorm, the coolies who had no armor or shields on their bodies, almost all of them were hit by arrows, and many of them were also hit by arrows. More than one.Looking from a distance, the ground is full of corpses and wounds lying there, each body is still wriggling, but the signs of life have been slowly flowing out along the arrows on the body.

The rocket is propelled by gunpowder.The strength is mighty and powerful.Far beyond human reach.The coolies who were shot, the arrows penetrated so deep into their bodies that they couldn't see their lives.

"Damn! Use such vicious things to deal with me!"

Wu Biao, who was only one step away from giving the order to rush forward, had a fine cold sweat on his head, and then yelled at the top of the city for a while.Order to continue firing towards the top of the city, firing guns!

Flames and smoke spewed from the muzzles of the 24-pound mortars.There was a deafening cannon blast.Four heavy mortar shells whizzed towards the top of the city, and fell to the top of the city in an instant.

These huge and hot iron balls.It hit the top of the city with a roar, or hit the center of the wall, or hit the edge of the wall, knocked up countless broken bricks and rocks, and then rolled down the top of the city, jumping and dancing in the city wantonly, causing a bloody mess everywhere.

The regiments on standby under the city were constantly being hit by the jumping shells, bloody and bloody, and their hands and legs were broken.There was even a regiment member whose head was taken away by the shells that jumped up obliquely after rolling down from the top of the city. The headless body stood there for a while, and after spraying blood mist from the chest and neck, it fell to the ground slumped .There were even cannonballs jumping and jumping all the way towards Zhang Tingyu, knocking out the servants who surrounded him with shields to protect him.

"Put rocks!"

Zhang Tingyu didn't care about the casualties around him, moved his limbs, found that there was no serious problem, and immediately ordered to start throwing stones.

There are dozens of small trebuchets he transferred under the city wall.Beside the trebuchet, there are piles of carved rounds of various sizes.There are several huge oil drums piled up randomly beside the stones, and the vegetable oil in the two huge iron pots next to the oil drums is being rapidly heated by the firewood at the bottom of the pot.

Just now, the rockets were fired successfully, which greatly boosted the morale of the defenders, but the retaliatory mortars of the Nanzhong Army quickly weakened the courage of the defenders.Hearing the order from Zhang Tingyu, the leader of the meeting, these people immediately had a backbone.Move the rock into the throwing ladle of the trebuchet machine, and pour a spoonful of hot oil from the oil pan on the rock, no need to aim and measure what to shoot, no matter what target it is, just throw it down the city yes.

Not to mention that under the walls of the stronghold are the South Central Army preparing to attack the city, and there is no need to aim at any target at all. In addition, the two sides are shooting shells and rockets on the city. At the same time, there is a vast expanse of white and gray everywhere, so how to observe the target carefully?Just smash it, just smash it out of the city!

Just now it was just rockets flying randomly, but now dozens of scorching stones flew through the air densely, there were bursts of muffled sounds of bones breaking, muffled sounds of muscles being hit, and piercing howls, accompanied by The smell of scorched human flesh silently explained the results of the throwing of the rocks.

A stone weighing several tens of kilograms flew out from behind the wall of the village, flew over the wall along a parabola, and fell at a height of more than ten meters. It was smashed into rotten meat all at once.

In the diffuse smoke.Boulders continued to fly from behind the wall of the village.

There were constant screams under the city, bloody and mutilated limbs flying around.The strong smell of blood, the choking smell of gunpowder smoke, and the disgusting smell of burnt human flesh are like Abi Hell.

The gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, and people's sight gradually became clearer.

Looking at the scene under the wall of the village, smelling the smell of blood and burnt human flesh, looking at the piles of body parts, stumps, broken arms, internal organs, large intestines and small intestines from the side of the trench to the side of the deer village, it is almost impossible to see to a complete corpse.In the middle of the trench, on the channel of the moat filled with straw sacks, blood dripped even more. Puddles of dark red blood seeped into the straw woven straw sacks and quickly condensed, flashing desperate light in the cold wind. .What came with the wind was a burst of desperate howling and moaning, what I saw and heard.These feelings are conveyed to people's brains, causing many people to vomit, especially those ordinary people. Many people have experienced such a bloody scene for the first time in their lives. How can they bear it? Some people vomit until they can't even vomit bile .

Not far from the outside of the trench, Wu Biao watched bitterly as the peasants coming from the east gate used the door panels to snatch the injured soldiers and coolies for treatment. This intensive attack of rocks caused him to lose hundreds of people. Not counting those coolies.

"Quick! When will your artillery be able to knock out those stones for me?"

Wu Biao yelled at a sentry officer under Huang Damu who came to support from the east gate position.

"Don't panic! The more you panic, the more chaotic! I have found their approximate location! Wait for me to settle the cannon. Just watch!"

The whistle officer is also a thunderbolt.The questioning of Wu Biao also responded like a thunder.

However, although these mortars have large calibers and heavy shells, their own weight is not very heavy because of the use of ductile iron.Use a four-wheeled gun mount.It is easier to maneuver the artillery.

soon.The eight mortars have been released.

"put!"

The eight artillery shells were divided into two waves, making a sharp and piercing sound of tearing the air, and swept towards the back of the wall where stones were constantly flying out!

In an instant, broken wood and rocks splashed under the wall of the village.A puff of smoke rose up.

Several shells will be hit by the trebuchet, which is being tensely loaded with rocks and preparing for a new round of throwing. How can the trebuchet made of bamboo and wood withstand the huge blow of 24-pound and 48-pound shells?Suddenly there was a sound of breaking, and after a few crisp sounds, the trebuchet broke and fell to the ground. The wooden frame overturned the heating oil pan, and the flames suddenly rose.

A cannonball hit the throwing spoon, and the stone in the throwing spoon flew out to the side, and the stone carved into a round shape immediately bounced happily on the ground. Wherever it went, there were screams, groans and howls Voices.

What's more, the uncultivated person in the previous life was hit on the head by a sharp stone on the spot, and a good head suddenly turned into a pile of flesh and blood that was hard to distinguish, red and white, which made people feel sick for a while.

"Don't mess around! Don't run! Put the stone back on and knock out the Nanzhong thief's cannon!"

Zhang Tingyu swung the sword, his eyes were full of bloodthirsty light, and a pair of bloodshot eyes stared at the people running and screaming around, like a wild beast that wanted to choose people and devour them.

Under the prestige, people still dared to go back to the trebuchet with smoke and fire, packed up seven or eight usable trebuchets and prepared to launch again.

"Their cannons need to be recooled after being fired several times, otherwise they can't be loaded with gunpowder! We don't have to worry about this! Hit them hard!"

"Third Master! Third Master!"

Just as he was about to launch a new round of rock attack, a servant of Liu Tingan came running from the east gate.

"Third Lord! The officers and soldiers are in a hurry to attack at the east gate! The old man is about to be overwhelmed! Please bring someone over there as soon as possible for reinforcements!"

"Reinforce a bird!"

Zhang Tingyu roared like a thunderstorm, grabbed the servant who was asking for help, pointed to the traces of gunfire pierced by thousands of holes on the wall on the ground, the blood and broken flesh and limbs everywhere, "I want reinforcements, I am full of Communists here!" Less than [-] regiments brave, he has [-] regiments, who will reinforce whom?!"

After yelling, he turned around and scolded the brave group who were waiting for his order, "Where are you watching birds? Ducks are listening to thunder!? Hurry up and throw stones? Are you waiting to be shot!"

"Third Master! Third Master!" That servant is Liu Ting'an's family slave for several generations, and he is the most loyal.

Seeing a dozen or so stones flying over the wall of the village, there was a moment of silence outside the wall, kneeling down and kowtow like pounding garlic.

"You have only Wu Liuqi's bandit soldiers on your side, and the veteran Nanzhong thieves on your side! And the artillery fire is several times better than this side! Dozens of cannons, large and small, are constantly bombarding. If you don't go there and bring reinforcements , I'm afraid the Walled Wall won't be able to stand it!"

As if to make a footnote to the servant's words, there was another earth-shattering sound of gunfire near the east gate, and dozens of mortars ravaged the already precarious wall of the village in another round.

There was a thunderous roar, shouts and cries, and a terrifying message quickly spread in Taoyuan Village.

"The east wall was bombarded by the cannons of the army!"

"Haha! Looks like I'm going to lose this game!"

Wu Biao also smiled when he heard the news, and commanded the troops to continue to attack the city.

For the sores in front of the eyes, cut off the heart.This is a portrayal of Zhang Tingyu's heart.

At the beginning, although the east side was said to be a place where a large group of people gathered and the artillery fire was fierce, no one was seen attacking the city.In the west and south, however, people kept filling trenches and breaking the deer village, and it was obvious that they wanted to ascend the city here.Several leaders decided that the South China Army wanted to play a trick to attack the west.

Unexpectedly, although the attack from the west was fierce, the real main breakthrough was still from the east!

Leading hundreds of regiments across the entire Taoyuan village, the village is already in chaos.

The women were busy tidying up the soft clothes. Several grandmothers took a plate of pot bottoms and wiped the face and hands of the young woman. The mother held the child.Some eleven or twelve-year-old teenagers lifted rocks and tried to block the door.

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the mortar shells, a huge gap appeared in the east wall. The masonry and soil that collapsed from the gap formed a slow slope between the wall and the ground, becoming a natural ally of the city breakers.

"Brother District, I'll bring someone up!"

Wu Liuqi waved the iron rod in his hand, his black face flushed red with excitement.

"Don't panic! Let the artillery fire another round!"

"Huang Damu! You bastard! Get the Dafolang machine ready! Prepare to blast me at the breach!"

After cursing at Huang Damu's artillery team for a while, Ou Dapeng held Wu Liuqi back, "Boss Wu, after this round of artillery fire, you can go up again! Remember not to clash too quickly, and don't surpass the standard bearer too much!"

In the era when there were no telephony machines, the only way to indicate targets for artillery was to rely on flags.The standard bearer rushed there, and the artillery extended there.This is something that can only be achieved by the South China Army, which has the best infantry and artillery coordination tactics.

"Finally, I want to emphasize that after the city is broken, those who resist will be killed, and those who kneel down and abandon their weapons and surrender must not be killed indiscriminately. Do not loot, do not rape!"

"Don't worry! Brother District! Whoever dares to mess around, I will finish him off with one blow first!"

It was really a battle to break the city.

Wu Liuqi turned around and went to rectify the troops, preparing to break into the city.

"It's amazing, it's amazing!"

As everyone knows, the most powerful is yet to come. (To be continued..)
