Section 1090 Night Raid
The slap was followed by a thud from the inner city wall to the outer city wall!
The sentry on the inner wall fired a pound of cannons at the outer wall, firing a shotgun, which immediately caused several screams: "Ah! Yes! Yes! ”
The one-pound cannon widely used by the Southeast Army is a flintlock type, which is mounted on a universal joint--- don't underestimate the universal joint, it is still made under the guidance of a great leader, and it can be easily pointed in any direction, and the flintlock ignition device can be hit whenever you want, which is very convenient.
The Chinese put it on ships, on horse-drawn carriages and on city walls, and used it very widely, because of the talent of the Chinese, as soon as things were used, it was the price of cabbage, so the military equipped a lot of equipment and erected it everywhere, it was like asking "How many cylinders does the army have in each squad?" He replied: "There are as many comrades as there are tubes" can be called an artifact.
The silence of the night was completely broken, and the attack was made by the tribesmen of the Kaber tribe in the mountains of Asia Minor, who were skilled in climbing, and attacked the new city of Cairo by night under the direction of Farhad Pasha.
They wore no armor or clothes, just a pair of trousers, and their bodies were painted in the same color as the earth, so that it was difficult to find in the dim light of the city, and they did not carry any heavy weapons, and at most they had a dagger in their mouths when they went up to the wall.
They crept silently to the edge of the city, their steps so light that they could not be heard by the dogs, and the geese did not respond.
The Southeastern Army uses biological defense, and the dogs and geese are veterans, but they have also lost their wind.
Their feet were so thick that the Chinese threw iron fern nails at the edge of the city, and the sharp side was pointing upwards, and even if they stepped on them, they could not nail them into their feet
And their movements were quite gentle, and the Chinese also put warning bells under the city, but they did not touch them, and they easily hid themselves under the city.
This tribe is powerful, they first stabbed the city with a dagger, thinking that they could go up by stepping on the dagger, and found that they couldn't get in, and the Chinese city was really strong!
So they stacked Arhats, stepping on their shoulders one by one and climbing up, as fast as apes!
Give them five sections of the outer city wall, and even let them climb a section of the inner city wall!
Only Liu Dazhuang gave a warning, and the sentries on the inner city wall above him were still very powerful, and immediately opened fire, and the shotguns hit the Kaboys, no matter how useless they were to cover up, they cried out in pain and immediately let the Chinese bomb the camp!
The Southeastern Army jumped out of the various caves, and the Kaber people fell into tragedy completely!
They are good at sneak attacks, but they are vulnerable in front of the Southeast Army Brigade!
The southeastern army saw the enemy firing, and the Kaber people jumped straight down from the eight-meter-high city wall, some people were lucky, and their ability was not small, they jumped down as if nothing happened, and quickly ran away, and some people broke their legs, and then after the dawn was found by the Chinese, the Chinese flew out of their spears and stuck them to the ground!
In the sound of gunfire, the city was in chaos, and suddenly there was a humane: "Look, look! ”
In the distance, the Ottoman military camp was brightly lit, and then fireballs rose from above the military camp and headed for the new city of Cairo.
Immediately someone came to his senses and said, "Fire bomb attack!" ”
But it was the Ottomans who fired fire bombs using trebuchets!
The fire bomb pierced the night with fire and shot straight into the city!
When the fire bomb hit the ground and exploded, the fire oil splashed and fell on a person like a rain, and immediately caught fire.
The man screamed in tears and struggled violently in the flames!
Others couldn't help him if they wanted to, so he could only watch helplessly as he was burned alive.
That man was really unlucky, although the fire bomb attack ignited a fire in the city, but there were not many people burning, everyone in the Guy Southeast Army had undergone vocational training--- walked by the wall to find cover!
The training of the troops was effective, and nothing was burned into torches.
The fire bombs kept flying, smashing on the city wall, the wall was full of fireworks, splashing some people, there were medical soldiers to treat their wounds, the whole was still comfortable, the accuracy of the fire bombs was really not good, they were all in the city or outside the city, there were not many people who went directly to the wall, and there were even fewer people who fell into the crowd, and the officers saw that the enemy was not so big, so they let the soldiers go back to the hiding hole to hide, and a few people were left in the city to watch.
At the Ottoman position, the officers and soldiers were busy reloading, igniting, and firing the tall trebuchets, and when the hammers were dropped and the shells were dropped, the soldiers quickly put them back into place and prepared for the next round of attacks.
The two infantry commanders, Charari and Mahmoud, were watching the fire, and the shells flew over their heads one after another, illuminating the sky!
The light shone on their faces uncertainly, and both of them were big men, with leather armor and fists as big as a fight, and their bodies were full of muscles, full of explosive power.
They knew that the bloody battle that would take place after dawn, and that no one would be safe in the face of such a majestic city, but they had been on the battlefield for a long time, but their hearts were calm.
"We've used a lot of fireballs, what do you think will be the effect?" Charari asked boredly.
Mehammad didn't answer first, then pointed his finger and said, "Look! ”
Following the direction of his finger, Charari saw a fire bomb hit a tower in the city, and immediately set the entire tower on fire, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Good! ”
However, looking at it, his brow furrowed, as the fire grew smaller and smaller, and gradually extinguished.
He said to himself: "Their buildings are all stones, and the oil cannot spread!" ”
It's no wonder that a lot of fire bombs were fired, and the city never became popular.
Indeed, as he had thought, the Ottomans threw a large number of fire bombs into the city, hoping to cause a fire in the city, which would be a blessing to the gods if they could burn the heathen.
But what they didn't expect was that the flame was lit, and some people were even reading books by the light of the fire!
In order to deal with the enemy's attack, the buildings in the city are reasonably arranged, the streets are spacious, and they are all made of stone or bricks, so if you want to ignite a fire in the city, you don't have to think about it!
In many places, anti-aircraft corridors were also built, with strong roofs, even iron covers, which could effectively resist stone bullets, not to mention fire bombs, and low walls were built on the side of the corridor, so that people could stay inside enough to watch the fire from the other side.
A fire bomb was burning, and the patrolling military commander Li Laiheng saw a soldier reading a book through fire, you don't care if he pretends to be 13 or is really immersed in the world of the book, anyway, he didn't notice when the army commander passed by!
The southeast army has a great cause, but it will not give the soldiers any night to light a fire to read a book, borrowing the enemy's fire to read a book is a good way, he patted the soldier on the shoulder, the soldier was shocked, found that it was a three-star lieutenant general, hurry up and salute!
It was a young soldier, and Li Laiheng asked kindly, "What's your name?" What are you reading? ”
The soldier handed the book to Li Laiheng for him to look at, well, yes, it is a book of "Cartography", and the young soldier said: "Report to the army commander, Chen Debiao of the department, this book was borrowed from the military library, and I am going to take the military academy!" ”
He said shyly: "I don't have a value now, I can read a book!" ”
"Excellent! Very good! Lee Rae-hyung was very pleased!
The army is mobile, and officers and men are limited in the weight of their equipment, and they often have to leave their personal belongings behind before marching.
However, the army encourages officers and men to read more books, so there is a military library, which transports books by special personnel, and often has livestock to cooperate in transporting books on the march, and when they arrive at the place, they can borrow books for the officers and men.
This young soldier Chen Debiao borrowed a book to prepare for the military academy, the southeast army's promotion channel is unimpeded, as long as you work hard and be admitted to the military academy, you can become an officer!
Even in the face of fierce battles and uncertain life and death, the soldiers were reading and reviewing with hope, and Li Laiheng encouraged him: "Work hard! ”
"Come!" He ordered the soldier to be given an extra piece of armor!
Chen Debiao has a piece of armor on his body, and now he has an extra one, the commander's affection is to increase his chances of survival, Chen Debiao is very excited, and he saluted: "I will work hard!" ”
