The heavy iron balls shot by gunpowder bounced and rolled on the narrow city tower, taking away all the lives of the panicked crowd, leaving behind fresh and smooth flesh-and-blooded messes all over the ground.

The so-called "heart-to-heart" ground made the official army that climbed the wall again have almost nowhere to step on, slip and fall heavily, pick it out of the broken gap, and fall inside the city wall with a larger gap.

But more people roared and crawled through the battlements, stepped on the flesh and blood mud, and rushed into the city wall, killing the archers in the arrow tower, slashing and dismantling the bodies, and throwing them into the city wall.

Then at the corner of the stairs, they met the defending spear team who rushed over to help. Almost dozens of flesh and blood were penetrated, like candied haws, and they were worn into strings.

Then, after a brief stagnation, these brave men of the striker continued to step on the bodies of the fallen comrades in the front, and suddenly jumped over the heads of these spearmen, and slashed them at their panicked or confused faces.

As the bodies rolled down the stairs in groups, the defenders' counterattack failed again and the small wall changed hands again.

Standing on a city climbing tower transformed into a frontier command platform, Wei Chen, the commander of the frontier, looked at these breakthroughs and progresses little by little in repeated tug-of-warming.

As the vanguard of climbing the city to defeat the enemy, under his command of the front line, there are eight battalions, of which only three of the old battalions who were dissatisfied with the gang are more capable and familiar. The others are newly added by each army, and there has not yet formed some tacit understanding and coordination, so he accidentally fell in love with a certain regiment training.

Because his predecessor failed to supervise, three elite striking camps were trapped in the city, which gave him the opportunity to be named by the general. Therefore, he was also alert and aware of his position and position.

Many people envied him for picking up this big advantage. Seeing that the rebels were at the end of their strength, and the first achievement on the verge of breaking the city was rightfully put into his hands. That was something that countless people had fought to the death before, but they couldn't make it. It made people jealous in private.

Therefore, he must have better performance and unmissible measures to avoid being an excuse for others to attack and rejection. At the same time, he must repay Liu Shuai's efforts and protection.

Wei Chen's ancestor was Wei Fangjin, one of the five famous military chiefs under Liang Gong hundreds of years ago.

At that time, the five chief historians around Liang Gong were all keen on the poor and poor, or were willing to be guilty. Later, they all became top figures who were powerful for a while.

Like Xue Jingxian, the recognized leader of the Liangmen, was originally just a criminal official. Since then, except for his subordinate status in the curtain, he has never held any official position. However, Liang Gongxuan has always gone to the territory, so he became the first prime minister of Daxia.

Another foreign minister, Zheng Yuanhe, is even more famous. He is the protagonist in the story of a former talented man and beautiful woman. Because he married Li Wa, a famous prostitute from Rongyang, he was cut off from the shameful family because he married Li Wa, a famous prostitute from Rongyang. However, he was successful in the imperial examination. He was placed in Chengdu as a small official, and he was also given the green eyes of Liang Gong, who was lucky enough to be Shu, and he was soaring to the sky.

From the Tianbao period to the late Taixing period, the first prime minister and foreman was born in the prime minister and six times. He was known as the successor to the white-clothed prime minister and Li Mi, who was known as the famous minister of Zhongxing, who was known as the Prince of Pingzhi, who was known as the famous minister of Zhongxing in the generation after the Prince of Pingzhi.

In the end, Zheng asked him to help him in terms of kinship and support so that his family background would not be defeated. He was also the ancestor of Zheng Fan, one of the five veins of the Southern Dynasty's wing-protecting nations.

For example, Wen Zhe, the chief of the Liangmen, was criticized for his integrity and character, but his loyalty to the Liang family was always implemented. He laid and strengthened the huge underground forces serving the dictatorship of the Liang clan. At its peak, even the emperor's daily life was heard. Now, the predecessors of several confidential departments, including the Sihai Guard, were also separated from their southern branches.

As the ancestor of the Wei family, Wei Fangjin was just a clerk in the Jianmen Army. Because his family involved in the cheating case of the provincial examination, he had to change his name to join the army. Because he met Duke Liang, he changed his life experience. In the end, he was able to become a Zumi Zun, Duke Si, who was appointed as the Prime Minister of the People, became one of the emerging prime minister lineages of the Tang Dynasty and was also a leader in the Taixing Party who had been swaying for hundreds of years.

However, by his generation, his family background had declined. He was just an unknown ordinary general in Guangzhou. Therefore, he finally achieved the current order in the army and also shouldered a certain responsibility to shine the family and reappear glory.

As long as you can grasp the first merit of breaking the city at a relatively decent price, no matter how many ineffective people are killed in the supervising formation, it doesn’t matter how many colleagues in the army will offend.

After all, as Liu Shuai's confidant and support, he can also gain the opportunity to become a leader, whether it is to join the commander, become a member of the department, or release the other party and serve as a full-time army.

Under the fierce battle, my so-called third sequence was ultimately unable to escape the fate of assists. He hid behind a large row of obliquely erected rows and took turns shooting at the top of the city.

Since that counterattack, it seems that the last bit of the rebels' strength has been exhausted. The enemies we face are almost out of ammunition and food, and there are no more qualified archers left. Only some are mixed with the soldiers, desperately leaving behind the pale and thin body of the brick and stone rolling wood.

So you can get close to the city and shoot directly on the top of the city. The dust and debris are flying around, and are repeatedly bombarded like dogs. The crumbling squats everywhere can hardly provide them with much cover. Therefore, even muskets with insignificant range and power can cause casualties, and their bodies are injured or dead from time to time, falling from the wall.

Several tragic counterattacks were launched again, but unfortunately there were too few people. Before they could get close to the gun team, they were killed by the front row of officials. Even if a few barely broke through and rushed forward, they would inevitably become the dead souls of the white soldiers crouching in the trench...

At this moment, the shooting team had already shot more than a dozen rounds of arrows, retreating aside to rest and work as a team to press the formation. At this time, the firepower durability of the gun team was fully demonstrated.

From the beginning of the battle to the present, except for dozens of long guns that were replaced by overheating, they have never stopped shooting. In the end, even the auxiliary soldiers also took spare weapons and joined the shooting ranks to increase their firepower.

The spear team, which was temporarily ineffective, turned into a temporary conveyor team, pushing the cart to replenish sperm and flint everywhere, and it seemed that it was a busy and incompetent planting.

During this period, we were also mobilized several positions to cover the officials who were or had already entered the city.

During this period, we also worked with other gun teams in the official army. But I don’t know if it was because their equipment was messy and lacked systematic training. No matter in terms of firing rate, range and accuracy, they could not keep up with our pace. Instead, because of the rough weapons, frequent firefighting or excessive equipment, there were many casualties.

In fact, there are only multiple shots, so most of them have to stop, clean up blocked gun chambers, repair and replace them, and failing parts.

Therefore, in the end, our unit was pulled out separately as a mobile cover organization. As long as it was released and beaten, it would be endless and endless pellets.

Although the actual damage caused by this direct shot on the target on the city wall may not be greater than that of the traditional crossbows that are shot in a curve, the continuous and flying projectiles are still enough to constitute a suppression effect of actual threats and psychological deterrence.

By this, we can also ask for more gunpowder and lead pills from the Frontier Military Office.

During this period, I only paid ten-digit casualties, but I got a rare experience of siege and experience. After the scene of the war, as the cooperation became more tacit and smooth, some awkward and immature things that could be seen in the naked eye gradually faded from this new team.

The battlefield is indeed the best teacher and lesson | Such random thoughts,

I gently let go of the hot long gun in my hand. Someone took it off from the small wooden fork-like bracket, and then replaced it with an ammunition loaded. I held it again at the top of the city, and then raised it slightly by two points.

He was running and shouting, kicking those who were squatting or lying on the ground one by one, even if the other party was howling and struggling.

Then I pulled the trigger and added a dose of recoil from gunpowder and special long tubes, which clearly transmitted to my shoulders and arms. This time he seemed to be unable to escape.

Because the half of his body, which was too strong, stopped almost like a frozen frame, and then a bright red blood fountain spurted out from his armpit, so his worries were completely resolved.

The seventh one, I quietly recited it quietly, this is my seventh victory since the war started.

Since I have reached this point, even I can't stay behind. Instead, I took this opportunity to take a small group of temporary draws and relatively accurate guns, and replaced them with special long guns with extended tubes and incremental gunpowder.

Under the cover of the model team, a relatively accurate concentrated attack on the city wall is more important or valuable.

In this situation, the so-called risk of taking arrows and stones is actually not great, but it can play a good role in setting an example and boosting morale.

The so-called good shooters are fed with ammunition. Even if they are more primitive, front-mounted and fired guns, there are certain probability and opportunities. Especially when using and quantitatively assembled ammunition.

Of course, this kind of fixed assembly is just an improvement in the existing foundation. It can be stored for a long time by using a large firecracker, with a wax-proof paper tube on the outside, and a weighed gunpowder and a sanded projectile sealed with wax.

If it is a close-range shotgun called a troll, a thin plug will be added between the wrapping lead particles and gunpowder, as thrust.

Then insert these fixed-packed bullet barrels, ten or twenty pieces in a group, on specially sewn cloth strips or leather covers, to form some kind of primitive bullet belts. Each gunner can bring a plural number according to the needs of the battle. When using them, unscrew the wax seal and remove the projectiles, pour the gunpowder into the chamber, and then tighten the bullets, and then complete the steps before the firing.

The auxiliary soldiers are responsible for recycling these cardboard tubes, which can be used as weighing units, using large barrels of gunpowder and lead to perform some kind of reloading, and the ammunition has several preliminary standardized specifications.

With a unified amount of ammunition, there is also a relatively unified standard and specification in the grasp of shooting feel and the determination of distance. Coupled with the application of experimental sights and simple rulers (these small gold pieces with precision scales are really not easy to process), it is enough to form a battlefield killer within a certain distance.

Almost guided by my ballistics, more than a dozen consecutive gunshots shot me again, and the target that was off the target, and several figures around him who couldn't help but stand up, overturned to the ground together.

Then a few drum beats sounded, and half a regiment of officials passed by us, climbed up to the city again along the ladder left by the previous series, and then fought with the defenders who had already had a very sparse presence, so we stopped again and turned our target to other aspects.

At this time, a loud bang shook my eyes. In our distance, the battle once again pushed to a fierce moment.

The cannons of the Shenji Army were also pushed to the near front position, almost hitting the city gate, until a break was opened to allow soldiers to penetrate, the light fire nest vehicles, hand artillery teams, and catapults also built bunkers and fortifications near the cracked gap in the city wall into a sea of ​​fire.

But those enemies always appeared tenaciously in these places that seemed impossible to survive, trying to block the progress of the official army.

Even the Shenji Army inevitably suffered heavy casualties. In contrast, we were lucky because we always fought outside the counterattack distance of most enemies.

At this time, the last reserve team at the forefront finally started to move, an elite force that everyone who sees can't help but sigh.

They were tiger men from the Yuhou Army, directly under the Central Army. They were covered with iron armor leaves from head to toe, cowhide armor lined with cow leather armor, and four layers of lining. Unless they were directly hit by siege equipment or poked directly on the face, most weapons and arrows could not be opened with canned iron-packed meat.

All soldiers embroidered robes and cloaks, and the officers put on big cloaks. The white feathers and red tassels on their heads were shaking in the wind like a forest, and they looked awesome.

In contrast, our team had just made a comeback. Most of the shooting team and the gun team wore a half-body armor. The white soldiers and spear team who fought in close combat were equipped with a set of slings, which seemed much shabby.

Under the command of the banner, they lined up slowly and resolutely, and the front was the tall players, forming a sharp edge like a huge crash, making people unquestionably something that could stop them.

Compared to other ordinary officials who roared enthusiastically and tear apart everything they tried to hinder their affairs, they undoubtedly had to be quiet and indifferent, like groups of metal sculptures. Only when they received the order to advance did they seem to be alive and turned into a surging and roaring dragon.

As the clamor of the troops breaking into the city gradually faded away, we received new orders and followed the rear guards to enter through the city gates that had been captured to help the official army consolidate and stabilize the rear.
