The battle in Kaiyi City continued in full swing, but it became more and more intense as Xue's desperate resistance.

On a half-high-rise building that temporarily occupied a relatively open business, it was cleaned up again and piled up with large pieces of rubble to form several temporary shelters.

And behind the rubble, there are vaguely busy figures

"The slope is three and a half degrees,..."

Zhou Laogong, the second captain of the artillery regiment, made a call to hiss

"37-carrying medicine..."

"The fifth group is responsible for the initial calibration,"

"One to four groups, five breaths apart, fire the guns in turn..."

"Prepare, put..."

With his last command, several sounds of Tongtong and Tongtong vibrated, and between the dust and gravel of the shiny gun mount, the dark iron cannon tubes suddenly spit out huge smoke columns, and were flew out by iron balls wrapped with huge kinetic energy.

After drawing several slender arc trails, they fell one after another near the inner city. A barricade and fortifications were temporarily built by the remaining defenders using a relatively solid building body.

Then he bounced unabatedly, hitting the messy bunker and splashing. Behind the pierced fortifications, his limbs exploded into a bloody color.

For a moment, the rain of arrows hiding behind the bunker desperately shot suddenly became much looser and was rushed to the front by the infantry. He dragged and pulled and pushed down the bunker and overturned it, clearing out several passages. Another barrier changed hands.

At the same time, as the temporary position of the artillery, there was already bitter and scorching gunpowder smoke; as the thick bristle brush filled with water was inserted into the cannon barrel to clear the chamber, the smell of water vapor evaporating the residue of the cannon chamber was added. Such a hot and steamy smell made Luo Fanjia soldiers holding a licensed bow guard around him, unable to help but turn their heads.

For Mr. Zhou, this is just a normal routine. You should know that this is already an improved fire cotton medicine bag. If you were still using old-fashioned black gunpowder on the boat, the smoke and dust that shot out would be so fumes that people could not open their eyes.

Although he is older, he also has a positive and motivated mind. Although he is an old man in the artillery regiment, he has always had a sense of crisis and pressure gradually replaced by young people with more flexible brains and better memory.

After he had been moving from sea to land, and after his life was promising, he didn't want to return to the land so early, just like other people who were getting older or in poor health, with the contract letter of the place of residence, and wanted to earn more capital and trust for the back.

Therefore, after spending most of his savings to get a warm foot, and after being taken care of in daily life, he had more time to study artillery skills in daily life, and worked hard to practice mathematics and writing. Therefore, in the expansion of the direct field artillery regiment, he achieved his goal with a cultural passing line that was barely up to standard, and achieved his wish.

Now his subordinates are leading five groups of four-inch long-barrel light guns, as well as two ammunition trucks, twenty cannons and horses who take turns to travel. Each group, together with the chief and deputy cannon commanders, rotated operators, guards, auxiliary soldiers, and grooms, and trolls. In addition, his direct subordinate Xiaoqi and drummers, Yuhou, the instructors, the materials and baggage teams, have a total of more than 130 people.

This is still the standard configuration of the army. If it is equipped with a double horse-drawn frame, as required for the cavalry's mobility, the number of people assigned by his subordinates can reach as many as 150.

He raised a small hourglass with a standard timer toward the light and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the deviation and delay were still controlled between two breaths. Then he held a horizontal vernier-type measuring instrument and a small notebook on the side. He said a few data and was recorded, and pressed his fingerprint as a sign.

As the gap was opened and expanded, groups of prisoners were escorted out of the neighbors, but mostly crying old, weak, women and children.

"Okay, prepare to transfer the position..."

Mr. Zhou then ordered.

"Calculate ammunition, check equipment, and do not forget anything..."

"But I don't know what they will be..."

The young cannon Yu Hou was surrounded by him and said, "I couldn't help but look unwilling to hold Xiao Ben and follow him."

"Does it have to be dealt with together?"

After all, some of the experiences he had passed by before left him with a very bad impression and impression.

"This shouldn't be what you and I care about..."

Old Guan Zhou sighed slightly.

"Since they have no intention of dealing with it on the spot..."

"Maybe it will be sold to Huaidong..."

Mr. Zhou said this and comforted the other party, but remembered his Silla Witch. Although he still speaks Chinese language in a bad way, it does not prevent her from obeying everything and fulfilling her wife's duties in a submissive way.

Because where she came, even a normal filling was a luxury. As the daughter of a redundant population, she had to go barefoot to the snow barefoot in winter to find firewood. Even if she finally lived a little older, she couldn't wait to be sent to the vassal house to be a slave, which was just an extra place to keep away from the wind and rain.

It’s not like after arriving in Huaidong, if you have enough food and clothing, just serve a man named her husband, and you can live with satisfaction.

Of course, he was not entirely a comfort to the other party. Because as one of the non-commissioned officers of the technical military, he also vaguely knew that Huaidong now had surplus food, but he was quite short of manpower and labor.

Whether it is the three Jiqibin prefectures in the north, the three Denglai Jiao prefectures in the east, or the Si and Su prefectures in the south, they urgently need a lot of manpower to reclaim and build.

Therefore, as long as these captures are obedient and hardworking for three to five years, they can easily break away from highly regulated labor and quarantine camps and become the primary management household. Then, in five to ten years, they can gradually obtain corresponding occupations and identities in farms or mining workshops in various places.

"We don't have the right or the capital to pity them..."

Another sturdy instructor, but he was a bit unpolite.

"But if we don't work hard enough..."

"This may be the lesson of tomorrow for our Huaidong fathers, wives and children..."

So the cannon Yuhou stopped talking.

They hurriedly followed the horse-drawn cannon carts and trotted through several streets.

Suddenly, several armored soldiers who were walking in front were suddenly shot to the ground by unknown arrows.

Then, the door panels that were nailed to death in several rooms not far away suddenly fell down, and a group of armed personnel holding sharp blades rushed out and fought in close combat with the guard forces of the brigade team.

Then, Xu's fish that had no time to stop him bypassed the battle group, rushed towards the cannon cart pulled by the horse, and slashed at the nearest pack horse that could not dodge.

Only a dozen crisp sounds of ping-pong sounds were heard, but the soldiers from the artillery group hurriedly started to counterattack with their short guns. The fine lead sprayed at close range immediately beat the attackers with a flowery face or a bloody body, and suddenly turned to the ground or threw down their weapons, screaming and screaming.

The other guards in the artillery team also caught up with this delay and obstruction, stabbed and killed the injured and escaped enemies one by one with bayonets.

Then the battle ended soon. Seeing that the situation was not good, these attackers left more than half of the bodies and fled back to the messy streets. Unfortunately, they encountered the artillery team from Huaidong.

After a moment,

The muzzle filled with shotguns directly shot on the dragged frame, and immediately blew up the enemy's possible hiding place, and then threw several fire thunder bombs in. In an instant, amid the faint screams of exclamations, both the doors and windows and the walls burst, spewing out large clouds of smoke and dust.

Then, with the broken blocks and debris that fell to the ground that were unbearable for support, the blood flowed out of the large beach under the dust. It seemed that many people were hiding it.

So, the street became quiet again.

I stopped to check the bodies and found that except for the swords in my hands, these enemies were almost completely armored and other protective measures. Moreover, they were both young and old, and except for their temporary courage, they seemed to have been hastily.

"What the hell do you eat..."

Mr. Zhou looked at him without hesitation, and the leader of the vassal soldier who was responsible for protecting the artillery team scolded him.

"How come there are such lurking fish that escapes the net."

However, the chaos and casualties caused by these attackers who emerge from time to time were just some kind of rejuvenation and final struggle for the overall advancement of the Luofan coalition.

With the sound of cannons coming and going in different directions, the vanguard of the Luofan coalition still pushed the front line near the inner city before dark. At the cost, a large area of ​​city walls and blocks were burned into ruins or demolished into white land.

As a result, a large number of city residents who had no time to escape and hide were captured by the crying and calling out loudly.

Xue Dingfeng, the general of the Xue family who retreated to the inner city wall, was like most people on the city wall, trembling and gritting their teeth in their hands, watching this scene, but was filled with sadness and despair.

Among them are their wives, children, children, or relatives and families.
