Chapter seven hundred and fiftieth chapters under the city

Zhang Han turned his head to Qingcheng. The morning sun was very hot. Qingcheng had nowhere to hide in the sun. The city tower and the city head were full of black people. Today, he was pressing closer to Yusheng's whistle and cavalry. A large number of cavalry were galloping back and forth, even approaching within a hundred steps.

When Zhang Han saw a small team of cavalry approaching, hundreds of herders and armored soldiers suddenly shot volleys under the command!

It seems that you can hear the sound of bowstrings and flying arrows rushing into the air.

However, these arrows are of no use to that cavalry!

The bow and arrow are too soft, and they look very close to hundreds of steps. The arrow's accurate head is also very good, but most of them appear weak when they fly in the air. After about hundreds of steps, most of the arrows have fallen to the ground, inserted obliquely into the grass, as if large areas of reeds have been planted on the ground. Only a small number of arrows are shot to the top of the cavalry's heads by the wind. The cavalry have already drawn their swords in their hands, dancing to knock the soft and weak arrows away.

For ordinary people, it is a bit scary for the iron arrow to fly to the front door, but for veterans, it is clear whether the arrow has strength or can be avoided or blocked. Even if these arrows are not blocked, they have no power. If you make a fuss, nothing is wrong.

A small number of feather arrows were blocked from flying, and a white-faced man even played tricks. An arrow flew past his face. The man leaned forward and actually grabbed the feather arrow with his mouth!

"good!"

"Heroic!"

Many soldiers who were lined up to fight were applauded, especially the cavalrymen, who even praised their comrades for their comrades.

"This is Zhong Zhenfa," Zhang Shixiong introduced to Zhang Han: "He was born as a horse thief and fought for more than ten years. He didn't abide by the rules and could not pass the cultural courses, so he could only be the chief of the sergeant and lead a team of cavalry."

"Don't abide by the rules?" Zhang Han smiled and said, "Why didn't you ask Zhou Yao to kill him?"

Zhang Shixiong said: "Commander Zhou tried to kill people last year, and he tried to pick those hard guys to kill them. Not all those who were born in horse thieves were killed. Zhong Zhenfa still passed the big festival, but the military orders were not discounted. He usually violated the discipline in daily life, so he was tolerant if he thought he would."

Zhang Han didn't expect that Zhang Shixiong would actually say good things for Zhou Yao seriously. In the past, the young officers from these schools hated the most were officers from Lahu and Mazha. They felt that they could not even pee in the same pot with these people. The two gangs often had disputes. Now it seems that after the Xiaohe Fort, Zhang Shixiong was really mature.

At this time, another young cavalry showed his riding skills. When the arrow flew over, the cavalry leaned back, and the arrow flew through the door quickly, and then the cavalry quickly straightened up again.

This time, there was a burst of thunderous cheers. Zhang Shixiong admitted it and smiled and said, "This is Lu Da, Rong, Lu Si, his four brothers. Except for Lu San's average rules, everything else is good."

"Hmph." Zhang Han snorted: "Of course the winner of the Medal of Excellence must be good. This kid can withstand the pressure and turn from a baggage to a cavalry. If he can still pass, it will be fine. I will give him the medal."

Zhang Shixiong smiled and nodded.

The northern barbarians on the top of the city were already in chaos, and their bows and arrows have always been the greatest reliance and pride. Although they knew that they could not defeat He Yusheng's musket soldiers in the field, they did not expect that they were so useless when defending the city. There was chaos on the top of the city. Many people shouted in Mongolian language. Zhang Han listened carefully, but he didn't hear this clearly.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) What are some people shouting.

But the answer was soon found, and many cannons were pushed out from the city wall, and the black muzzles were facing the cavalry running back and forth.

"The Beilu are really useless." Zhang Han sighed: "The bow and arrow are not good, and no one dares to open the city to fight. If you fight immediately, isn't this confidence gone?"

The general who presided over the central army did not have the same time as Zhang Han. When he saw that the artillery was pushed up, the central army immediately ordered, and then the sound of bronze horns sounded, which was the order to order the cavalry to withdraw.

Dozens of cavalry with hundreds of men retreated immediately!

The sound of horse hooves rumbled. The cavalry knew the sharpness of the firearms and immediately adjusted the horse's speed to the fastest and retreated in all directions.

Only Lao Zhong and Lu Si's team are closest to each other, and they are the most dangerous. The whole army is betting on Lu Si and others.

Beilu's firearm may have been pre-filled and started soon!

Zhang Shixiong was already saying to Zhang Han: "It seems that they are all two general cannons, weighing 300 to 400 kilograms, and the bullets are weighing one and a half kilograms. Most of the important towns on the nine sides are equipped with such cannons. In addition, some of them appear to be small Folang machines, weighing 150 kilograms, and the mother-in-law guns are filled with scattered gravel bullets..."

Before he finished speaking, the cannons on the city were fired one after another. From a distance, he could clearly see flames spewing from the muzzle. Afterwards, white smoke suddenly emerged from the body of the gun. Then he saw several projectiles flying out. However, the Mongols were not accurate at all. Amid the screams, several shells were either high or low, some flew out three or four hundred steps, and some were too low, hitting the ground dozens of steps away. No shell could pose an effective threat to the cavalry.

"The Mongols don't know how to use firearms at all." Johnson Chan stood in the artillery team, smiling and shook his head.

Frederick, with freckles on his face, said with contempt: "It's great if the rude and unwilling barbarians can make a comeback."

Tang Wangzong said: "We can prepare too, and the central army may order a counterattack later."

All the gunners and gunmen started to move, pierced the medicine bag, stuffed it into the barrel, and then stood up and prepared.

More than one hundred artillery guns lined up into a long artillery array, and the officers were still doing ballistic calculations before the test firing. The blonde and blue-eyed missionary officers in the crowd were very conspicuous.

After all, there were too few qualified artillery officers in this era. It was less than two years since Yusheng's artillery was formed and formed. Qualified artillery officers were still like giant pandas. Even with Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua Joshua

This kind of technical army is too short for more than two years. The artillery of European army powers is settled in a century. Although he has the advantage of latecomer with Yusheng and his current technical level is definitely the only one in the Ming Dynasty, there is still a considerable gap with the artillery of old European powers, let alone naval artillery.

This is also the reason why Zhang Han did not hesitate to fight Tumot in advance. Jezhnev and others are the hope of the Russian navy. They are proficient in shipbuilding and naval battles. They may be second-rate in front of the top British and Dutch in Europe, but in He Yusheng, they are top talents that cannot be found even with lanterns.

In addition, Zhang Han has sent people to hire Portuguese gunners and qualified officers in Macau and Nanyang, and Sun Yuanhua is in Ren Deng

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) When Governor Lai, there were more than 300 Portuguese mercenaries and officers in Dengzhou. Later, they died in the Wuqiao mutiny. Zhang Han did not need ordinary infantry officers, but for talents who were proficient in artillery operations, even the most ordinary gunners, the more they were.

After seeing the gunner's movements, Chau Wang nodded slightly. No matter what, He Yusheng's artillery training level maintained a very high level. Every movement of the gunner and the tools held in each hand were used for the full use of the tools, and the movements were very skillful and fast.

After everyone finished the preparations, Johnson Chan smiled and said, "We are ready."

Tang Wangzong nodded and looked at the Zhongjun side.

Today's battle was made by Zhang Han appointing Liang Xing as the commander and Zhao Shiwu as the central officer. The other regiments were waiting for orders at the point of pointing. The central army had a command chariot, which was as high as three meters high, and the flag bearer commanded with flag words at the highest point.

This is much faster and more accurate than giving instructions to Tangma. Of course, if it is a complicated military order, it is still subject to the communication of Tangma.

The central army had not yet moved, and there was a thunderous sound of horse hooves in front of him. A large number of whistle cavalry retreated directly into the infantry formation, and a small number of cavalry retreated to the cavalry positions in the north.

"I heard that Ren Jing's 7th Regiment might also be driven to the Daqingshan area." Tang Wangzong and Tang Ruowang chatted: "When he arrived, two infantry regiments and three cavalry regiments would have no chance at all."

"There is no chance now." Joshua Chan said in surprise: "It has been surrounded."

"Hmph, Mongolia is not just Tumote's part." Tang Wangzong said: "Brother, don't think it's too simple."

"Who is your brother?" Chau Wang retorted: "You are your brother."

Both of them were born in the 20th year of Wanli. In the month, Tang Wangzong deliberately waited for Tang Ruowang to report it before reporting it. The two of them had been arguing about this matter.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you call me brother." Tang Ruowang suddenly gave in and admitted the status of Brother Tang Wangzong with a smile.

"What?" Tang Wangzong said: "What's wrong with you guys?"

Joshua Chan smiled and said, "I will leave after this battle... We have been with Yusheng for a long time. It is also a great cause to fight against the Tatars, but it is not a gospel to spread the Lord. The atmosphere in Beijing has been much looser, so I plan to go back to Nantang."

Tang Wangzong remained silent, and after a while, he said, "Brother, I can't make the decision to build a church and preach. If the lord doesn't agree, no one can do it. After the battle, let's have a good meal."

"I want to declare in advance." Joshua Chan said, "I don't drink soy wine. Also, if I leave, there will be many people who are willing to stay. Although you can't build a church, you Lord Zhang did not prohibit us from preaching. When you arrive in the capital, I can also constantly introduce qualified talents to you, so don't hold back and get me drunk!"

Tang Wangzong burst into laughter.

At this time, the Mongolians fired the second round of artillery.

The time interval is indeed long enough, so we can't blame the gunmen who are cheating. The Mongols have always judged heroes by bows and arrows. Who would have fiddled with those firearms? The gunmen are just cuddling and learning how to fight. They only practiced for dozens of days in total. It is inevitable that they are busy in the war.

After they cleaned the chamber with their hair, refilled the medicine and compacted it, the Folang machine replaced the gun and finished everything, it took at least half a quarter of an hour.
