At this time, the sound of killing in Beicheng was no longer heard. The ocean horses were galloping on the street like arrows. Liu Jingxiao could only hear the sound of wind in his ears. The houses on both sides retreated like flying, but he was anxious and thought that he ran too slowly and couldn't help but tighten the reins.

After finally running to the North City, Liu Jingxiao was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. It turned out that a section of the city wall near the city gate had completely disappeared. There was a gap of seven or eight meters wide in the middle. There were circles of corpses piled up between the broken walls and broken tiles. Judging from the costumes, there were Dingbian Army and Rouran people. Dozens of infantry stood near the gap, lifting rifles and pulling the plate aircraft at any time. The artillery company's artillery company moved here, aiming at the gap, and the artillery was ready to fire at any time.

Seeing Liu Jingxiao, Sima Kan ran over quickly and shouted as he ran: "Jingxiao! You are here just in time!"

Liu Jingxiao calmed down and jumped down and asked, "What's wrong?"

Sima Kan explained the situation of the battle just now. It turned out that although Rouran was killed and injured, and although he failed several times, he still used a coffin to install a fire and blew the city walls.

At the cost of human life, they first launched a feint attack on the right side of the city gate, and used nearly 100 casualties to attract the attention of the first battalion, and then secretly installed four coffins filled with fire and carried them under the city wall. Although the defenders on the city discovered this, it was too late. The Rouran people had detonated the coffin at the same time. The huge explosion immediately blew the city wall down, and a huge gap appeared.

Fortunately, the explosion was too powerful. Not only did Li Jianshuang at the city gate even kill half of the squad, but even the Rourans hesitated for a while before launching the scheduled attack when they saw this scene, which gave the first battalion a chance to remedy it. After hearing the explosion, Lu Da, the baggage company of the reserve team, took the initiative to help the battle without asking for instructions, blocked the enemy immediately, and fought with the Rouran infantry who broke into the city. Sima Kan also gave up the city gate defense and rushed down to help the battle.

Lu Dalian had many new recruits, and the veteran backbone had already suffered too much casualties in the previous battle, and gradually felt unsupported. But when it was just when it could not hold on, Sima Kan Company arrived just in time. The two companies forced the Rouran infantry who had not yet stood firm out of the city. Most of the Rouran infantry outside the city were blocked by the defeated soldiers. Li Jianshuang Company on the city gate ignited grenades and threw them down, causing the Rouran people to suffer great casualties. In batches of people fell down, but they could not stand firm at the city entrance and had to retreat and reorganize the attack.

In addition, the Rouran attacked several times and was eventually defeated by the first battalion. Because Lu Dalian suffered too much casualties, he had to retreat and rest.

Now the First Battalion can only concentrate all the main forces here. The city is Li Jianshuang's first company, commanded by Li Heyi, and Sima Kan's first company and artillery are responsible for it. However, Sima Kan's casualties are too great. The original infantry company with 160 people is only more than 80 mobile officers and soldiers left. The casualties of Lu Da Company are even greater. But what's even more dangerous is that all the veteran backbones of Lu Da Company were exhausted. The deputy company commander was killed in battle, and no one of the three platoon leaders was left, and only three of the nine squad leaders were left. Now the cadres are temporarily promoted.

Liu Jingxiao listened and felt calm. He knew that there was still a chance, so he nodded and praised Sima Kan for a few words. At this moment, someone shouted at the top of the city: "They are here again!"

Liu Jingxiao immediately became excited, took out the revolver from the holster, and shouted: "Prepare for battle"!

First, there was a burst of gunfire and grenade explosion, and then there were Rouran people's shouts and screams. Almost at the same time, Rouran people's artillery also began to roar. Li Heyi shouted at the top of the city: "Stay on! Fight me!"

At this time, all the sounds were mixed together. Liu Jingxiao seemed to hear them at all. She was as calm as water. Seeing this situation, all the officers and soldiers were calm.

After a while, the figure of Rouran had already appeared at the city gate. Liu Jingxiao gave the order and all the cannons were aimed at their front and fired. When they rushed into the city desperately, the shotgun just hit the ground, making a sharp sound, causing considerable casualties. The formation of Rouran was torn apart.

However, Liu Jingxiao knew that Rouran people have always been the bravest warriors, and even with the most violent artillery fire, they would still rush in.

At this moment, Liu Jingxiao heard another bad news: "The shotgun was completely blown away, and only the spherical bounce was left!"

Although the two-pound cannon is a very successful artillery, from a technical point of view, it is a complete failure. The entire cannon weighs more than 200 kilograms, and there are only two types of shells issued, spherical bullets and shotguns, and there are no more lethal shrapnel or blasting bullets. Even if you use a solid ball, the effective range is only 160 or 70 meters. If you use a shotgun, the range is only a pitiful one hundred meters.

Shotball can be said to be the best choice for artillery to give the enemy the greatest damage at close range. Shotball actually puts a lot of iron or lead projectiles in a very thin jar. The container breaks when shooting and the projectiles are scattered out. Scattered projectiles can tear the enemy's queue, leaving a bloody gap.

To put it bluntly, the spherical solid ball is a solid iron ball. Its lethality is too far from the shotgun. The only possibility is that it forms a jump on the dry ground, which knocks down more than a dozen people at once. However, the spherical solid ball issued by the two-pound cannon is too light, and the chance of forming a jump is too small.

But Liu Jingxiao couldn't care about so much, so he could only shout: "Prepare the ball bullet! Go to the second echelon! The rifle is ready to fire!"

But even the spherical bullets have to be reloaded before they can be fired. Therefore, Liu Jingxiao pulled out the command knife, held the gun in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, and then shouted: "Fire!"

The Dingbian army lined up in two formations and fired a row of guns. A group of people fell from the Rouran formation, but this was useless because the Rouran people rushed in too many. Just as the Dingbian army was busy loading bullets, a company column of the Rouran people had already rushed into the city.

Liu Jingxiao was calm and shouted when the soldiers of the Dingbian Army loaded the second bullet: "Fire! Assault!"
