The gun that Wei Hong said is commonly known as the 'nine-headed bird', but to put it bluntly, it is just an oversized bird. Please search (product @) to see the most complete! The fastest update

The caliber of this kind of gun is nearly one inch, the barrel is one and a half meters long, and it weighs more than 20 catties.

One person can't operate it at all, and two people have to work together to use it.

And when firing, it is necessary to carry the gun on a tripod to support it, so even the Ming army has this kind of gun at this time, but the army rarely uses it in peacetime.

The three guns equipped by the White Dragon Army were still captured from Zhouzhuang, and as a powerful long-range weapon, Li Zixiao naturally would not eliminate them.

Instead, these three guns were directly equipped to the soldiers' bird guns, and today's situation was just right for them, so they were carried out.

The three guns had already been loaded and ready to be fired, and each barrel was filled with a dozen iron bullets the size of a little finger's belly.

The three gunners quickly set up their guns and lifted their guns, and with the order of a captain next to them, they pulled the trigger together.

The burning rope snapped and landed lightly in the medicine pool.

In an instant, a cloud of smoke rose up, and the three guns all jumped violently, spitting out clouds of smoke.

A projectile was like a rain of steel bullets, pumping towards the officers and soldiers who rushed along the official road.

The officers and soldiers who rushed to the front were heard, and immediately a miserable scream rang out, and a large number of people fell.

At this time, the official army had already rushed to a distance of about fifty steps away from the White Dragon Army, and this suitable distance brought out the maximum power of the spear.

Even the officers and soldiers who rushed to the front raised heavy shields, but they could not stop these flying projectiles.

The projectiles flying at high speed sent the shield fragments in their hands flying.

Even the officers and men who were hiding behind them were not spared, and the high-speed flying projectiles hit them, and one by one they were immediately splashed with blood, and they fell down one by one.

The reason why Li Zixiao ordered to shell the artillery of the official army on the opposite side was to prevent the opponent's artillery from bombarding the White Dragon Army formation.

The White Dragon Army has always attached great importance to the use of firearms, and they can use firearms and bows and arrows to deal with the officers and infantry who rushed over.

The dozen or so official saber players who rushed to the front row were almost swept away under this round of blows and fell to the ground one after another.

In this way, the protection of the shields in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers in front of them was lost, and the officers and soldiers who rushed over directly after them were suddenly exposed to the White Dragon Army.

The sudden blow almost made this group of officers and men not guard at all.

Just when they were still rejoicing at the misalignment of the chaotic artillery, they were knocked down by the rain of bullets fired from their guns, and the vision in front of them suddenly became clearer.

At this time, the leading officers in these officers and soldiers realized that something seemed to be wrong.

Because they were on the official road, they saw that behind the dirt slope on the right, rows of people began to pour out.

Unlike the rebels standing in front of them, the rebels were not equipped with shields or spears.

Rather, in each person's hand, he was either holding a black bird gun or holding a hard bow.

After they appeared on the dirt slope, they quickly formed several columns, and the bandits with bird-wielding guns formed three rows.

Each row numbered about thirty people, arranged in three tiers on the dirt slope, and behind them, more than a hundred archers with strong bows began to place their arrows on the bowstrings.

All the officers and soldiers who were originally charged, after seeing this scene, instinctively wanted to stop their steps.

At present, the front of the official road is densely packed with officers and soldiers, and the officers and men behind are still struggling to squeeze forward, so that they have no room to turn back.

At this time, once they retreat, they will still become targets, and after realizing this, a member of the Wu family will immediately give orders and order to continue to rush forward.

As for the general manager who led the charge this time, he had already been frightened by the shooting of the gun just now, and the large number of bird gunners and archers that appeared on the hillside at this time, and he didn't know how to give the order for a long time.

At this time, a general who was sent by Wu Laiyun to assist in the attack directly replaced this Qian general to give orders.

"Don't panic, everyone, rush over, hurry up, as long as you strangle with them, their bird guns will be useless."

This Wu family general is still quite experienced in the battle, and as soon as he found that something was wrong, he quickly reacted and roared loudly in the team.

The officers and soldiers in front were a little stunned by the round of guns, and unconsciously stopped their steps, looked at the opposite side in astonishment, and did not know how to act for a while.

Seeing the sword players holding shields in front of him, most of them were swept down at once.

The wounded colleagues, still wailing at their feet, made them even more frightened and overwhelmed.

In addition, on the opposite dirt slope, there were many murderous, chaotic archers and bird gunners pouring out, which made them a little panicked.

It wasn't until they heard the roar of the Wu family general from behind them that they realized that they were waiting for death to huddle here, and it was too late to turn around and run.

Only by continuing to rush forward and fighting these rebels in close quarters can he survive.

And among them, some veterans with combat experience also want to understand this.

reacted immediately, shouting "kill the thief" one after another, and rushed desperately towards the team of white dragon troops led by Zhou Dazhu.

More than 100 birds are on the dirt slope, and they are arranged in three columns from bottom to top with the help of the slope.

A gun-wielding general on the left side of the first row shouted: "The first row listens to the order, the gun is flat, and the aim ...... Put! ”

When the birds were preparing behind the dirt slope, they had already lit the fire rope on the bird guns, and they had been carefully blowing the fire rope to prevent the fire rope from going out.

After hearing the order at this time, Hula flattened the bird gun together, and pointed the mouth of the black hole straight in the direction of the bridgehead.

Everyone put the bird's gun, the newly modified trapezoidal butt, tightly on their shoulders, their gills on the butt, and aimed the door and the front sight forward.

The modification of the butt makes the aiming of the bird hand much more accurate and stable.

Each bird player can be very steady, aiming at a target, and as the team general gives the order, they press the dragon head together.

I only heard the sound of ping-pong, which sounded together almost instantly, and a row of gunpowder smoke was spewed.

The seven or eight officers and men who rushed to the front screamed together and fell to the ground as if they had hit an invisible wall.

Some unlucky eggs were hit by two or three projectiles almost at the same time, and the penetration of the round projectile could not penetrate their bodies at all.

However, the projectiles that entered their bodies caused them more damage, and some officers and soldiers wearing armor were lucky enough to block the projectiles.

However, the powerful kinetic energy carried by the projectile still shook its chest with great pain, and the whole person was knocked out, causing the formation of the officers and soldiers to be chaotic again.

"The second platoon listens, the gun is flattened, and the aim is ...... Put! ”

After the first row of birdmen released their guns, the commander of the second row of birdboys shouted and ordered.

Because of the slope of the soil slope, the height of the three rows of bird guns is increased in turn.

This saves them the time of having to step back and switch teams with the second row of birdie players after each volley.

This allows them to reload projectiles and gunpowder faster for a second salvo.

And the first shot of the bird, no one paid attention to their shooting results.

Because the White Dragon Army has strict rules, after firing the gun, the bird gunner must not check the effect of the shot, and must immediately retreat and start reloading.

The reason is very simple, after the black powder is burned, a large amount of gunpowder smoke will be spewed out, and after the bird gun fires, the front will be filled with gunsmoke, and it is impossible to see the situation in front of him clearly.

At this time, of course, they could not waste time, waiting for the smoke to clear and check the results, and they had to use this time to step up reloading and prepare for the second round of salvos.

Now the first row of bird gunners strictly enforced this military rule, and as soon as the gunfire fell, they immediately brought the medicine pool at the back of the bird gun to their mouths.

After blowing the residue in the medicine pool, he pestled the bird on the ground and began to take out the packaged fixed ammunition.

Biting the plug of the bamboo tube, he immediately poured gunpowder and projectiles into the chamber of the gun, and then pulled out the cane under the barrel, inserted the barrel, and tamped the ammunition, and did a series of actions very skillfully.

The second row of bird-gunners also opened fire at this time, and another piece of gunpowder smoke rose up, dozens of projectiles flew out of the mouth again, and another scream sounded.

After all three rows of birds fired from the White Dragon Army, the smoke rising from the dirt slope almost completely blocked the bird's hand.

At this time, after the baptism of the three-wheeled bird gun on the official road, this place has already become like hell.

Under the baptism of such a dense rain of bullets, almost all the officers and men who rushed to the front fell in a pool of blood.

The damage caused by a projectile from a bird gun is far more difficult to treat than an ordinary arrow wound or even a knife wound.

With the current backward medical methods, it is difficult for people who are generally shot to survive, even if they are only shot in the arms and legs, the outcome is often the same.

Because, those soldiers who were shot in the arms and thighs also have a large number of bacteria, as well as residual particles of gunsmoke, which can also be brought into the wound and cause wound infection.

At this time, once the wound is infected, it is basically certain death.

Of course, these soldiers know this, and they are willing not to be slashed with swords and guns, rather than being shot by birds.

These officers and soldiers did not expect that this pole would dare to be used on such a large scale, this kind of bird gun that can explode, as a long-range firepower output.

Aren't they worried about the bird's gun? It was so violent.

The dense rain of bullets blocked the road ahead, knocking over the soldiers who rushed in front of them to the ground one by one.

The officers and soldiers in the back looked at the robes lying in front of them.

Some of them were only injured but not dead, and they were desperately crying, frightening the people behind them to death, carrying the officers and soldiers who were still rushing forward behind them, and did not dare to rush forward again.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Wei Hong was also holding a hard bow at this time, twisting his waist and opening his arms, and the bow body of the step bow in his hand creaked, and then the bow body was rounded and pointed obliquely at the sky.

As he let go of the bowstring of his right hand, he roared loudly.

More than a hundred archers of the White Dragon Army pulled out the bowstring together, pointed the sharp arrow in the air in front of them, and when they heard Wei Hong's roar, they immediately released the bowstring together.

More than 100 carved arrows rose into the air at the same time, cutting arcs in the sky.

The dense rain of arrows flew quickly over the officers and soldiers, and then swished and fell like raindrops.

The archers are behind the Bird Gunners, so they don't shoot straight at them.

Instead, they used the method of projectile to shoot the arrows, so as to increase the range of the bow and arrow, otherwise they would stand behind the bird's gunner, and the direct range would not hit the officers and soldiers at all.

This kind of projectile can make the range of bows and arrows cover the heads of those densely packed officers and soldiers crowded on the official road.

Although this cannot guarantee the accuracy, for the half-way archers of the White Dragon Army, Li Zixiao did not expect their archery skills to be superb.

This kind of shooting method covered by a rain of arrows is the most suitable way for them to play.

Numbers compensate for their lack of accuracy, and projectiles are the most suitable for dealing with such a dense charge of the enemy.

Sharp arrows fell, thrust heavily into the crowd, and nailed to the human body, making a tooth-wrenching sound.

Many of the officers and soldiers on the official road let out terrible screams, and fell to the ground one after another covering the wounds of the arrows.

Wu Laiyun, who had been watching the battle in the back, also widened his eyes at this time.

He really couldn't believe that this was just a few breaths, and not a single photo was counted, and the officers and soldiers he photographed had suffered dozens of casualties.

Such a result was really unacceptable to him, the long-range firepower of the White Dragon Army was too sharp.

Normally, they think that if they charge at the enemy, the enemy will also shoot them with bows and arrows.

However, as long as they use the shield in their hands to withstand two rounds of bows and arrows, they will be enough to rush to the enemy, and the enemy's archer role will be greatly reduced at that time.

Who knows, the White Dragon Army will actually use their guns to knock out some of the sword and shield hands in the front row of the official army in the first wave of attacks, which is equivalent to removing their protection.

Then the bird salvo and the archers threw it, inflicting heavy casualties on the officers and soldiers.

If it was an elite officer and soldier who had caused such heavy casualties, they might still be able to continue to charge, but these officers and soldiers were completely a motley army.

At this time, under the blow of the White Dragon Army's bird salvo and bow and arrow throwing, in just a few dozen paces, they fell sixty or seventy people, which was already close to one-tenth of the officers and soldiers of this army.

With such high casualties, how could this group of miscellaneous soldiers not be defeated, they were not those elite soldiers led by Xu Wei.

So Zhou Dazhu in front of him was excited, with a team of White Dragon Army soldiers and soldiers, ready to meet this group of officers and soldiers.

However, it was found that under the blows of the bird gunners and archers, this group of officers and soldiers was actually defeated.

"Damn, what's this called, it's going to retreat, no, brothers, catch up with Lao Tzu, you can't let them run away so easily, kill!"

"Captain Zhou, the big boss has an order, if the official army is defeated, it must not be pursued."

Just when Zhou Dazhu couldn't help but lead someone to chase him, a team general hurriedly stopped Zhou Dazhu's behavior.

"Really, this battle is not happy, and this group of officers and soldiers is really cowardly."

In the end, although Zhou Dazhu was angry, he didn't dare to disobey Li Zixiao's order, and scolded in his mouth.

At this time, Wu Laiyun, who was in the main formation of the officers and troops behind, saw the defeated group of officers and soldiers.

"Fortunately, I tested this group of wastes first, and didn't send Xu Wei's men and horses first, otherwise this battle wouldn't have to be fought." Wu Laiyun said happily.
