Chapter 841: Condor Shooter
The Mongols had captured a number of strong men from the surrounding villages the previous night, and their task was to carry the ladder to the bottom of the city, and Galdan felt that his warriors should die on the way to charge, not on the way to the siege.
The Mongols' knives showed no mercy at all, but anyone in front of them who couldn't stand the bow and arrow shooting at the head of the city and wanted to retreat was basically cut with a knife.
In the eyes of the Mongolian cavalry, the archery skills of the defenders at the head of the city are really poor, if such a person is on the grassland, he will become a weak person who everyone laughs at.
Soon the ladder was erected under the city, and within ten breaths the Mongol cavalry arrived, and the connection was quite close, and these people dismounted and began to climb up the siege ladder.
General Liao at the head of the city took a deep breath and yelled: "Roll the soup, put it!" ”
The boiling hot water was splashed down by several people, and it was good to say that it was a scream at most, and others continued to attack the city, but it was splashed on the horse below, and the horse below was immediately startled, this war horse had not received this kind of training, and ran away with its hind hooves.
Many horses collided with the cavalry behind, and there was some chaos below, but this was not a big deal for the Mongol cavalry, and those who came after immediately came up with a way to change it, and dismounted twenty paces away from the city, and this time the horses would definitely not be alarmed.
After a while, the first batch of Mongolian cavalry had already rushed to the top of the city, but the first person to go to the city basically did not end well, and more than ten spears were pierced at the battlement, which directly pierced him, and his body fell backwards and fell into the city.
General Liao was unmoved, and then shouted loudly: "Hot oil! ”
The hot oil of the cauldron was poured down, the quality of the soldiers in this city was good, after all, most of the people came with the heart of dying on the battlefield, and they were just stupid for a moment when they were splashed with blood, and they immediately threw themselves into the battlefield after reacting.
Once the battlefield was stunned, the enemy was given a chance, and basically this life could not be saved, and the small number of people who did not react were slashed by the Mongol cavalry who rushed to the city.
Lord Song and the others stood on the top of the arrow tower in the corner of the inner city, looking at the battle below, and one of them coughed: "This is less than an hour, and someone has attacked the city, and the situation is probably a little bad." ”
Next to them, there was a soldier sent by General Liao to protect them, and he laughed: "Most of our soldiers are temporarily recruited, and many of them have never touched bows and arrows before, so they can only block the enemy through this way of fighting, since they want to put the enemy up to fight, it is not surprising that they rushed to the city." ”
Lord Song touched his beard: "We don't know much about the battlefield, let's look at General Liao's ability, it can't help much, Lord Li shouldn't be ambitious." ”
"Under the gaffe."
As he spoke, the archers of the Mongol cavalry below were also in place, and these men stood fifty meters away from the city and lined up to aim at the defenders at the head of the city and began to shoot.
The most powerful archer in Mongolia is called the eagle archer, the eagle eagle generally flies at an altitude of two or three hundred meters, and there is also the effect of gravity, ordinary people can't shoot the eagle eagle at all, even if they shoot, it's just rubbing the fur. Only a person who can shoot an eagle owl from the sky with an arrow can be called an eagle archer.
Among the archers under the city were five condor archers, all of whom were Galdan's treasures, and Galdan ordered the archers to shoot their arrows in unison.
General Liao at the head of the city suddenly felt a chill rise in his back, and before he could react, a personal soldier next to him immediately hugged him: "General be careful!" ”
A bow and arrow pierced through the soldier's chest, and the force was evident.
General Liao dragged his own soldiers to the inner side of the city: "Dayong, how are you?" ”
"General, I'm not going to do it, you take care of yourself, the archers under the city are very powerful." Before he finished speaking, his neck was crooked, and he had already swallowed his breath.
General Liao didn't have time to grieve, because the most ferocious soldiers at the head of the city were covered almost immediately, and in an instant dozens of Mongol cavalry poured into the city.
"Don't mess around, they themselves rushed up, the other party will definitely not shoot arrows, push them down first! Gunners, start firing guns! ”
There is a Shenji battalion in Beijing, Kangxi took away a large number of craftsmen when he left, and the artillery only took away part of it, after all, this thing is too heavy, if it is all taken away, it is estimated that the army will be dragged down, and a lot of artillery was left in Beijing City, and General Liao did not take it out when the Mongolian cavalry charged, and he thought that he would be caught off guard by tomorrow, but now he can only take it out in advance.
The city of Beijing is different from those small cities, the artillery is hidden in the turret, even the artillery at the battlement is only the barrel of the black hole, the people outside can't see it at all, the people who kill the city are all focused on the front of the goal, who will pick up the battlement behind him to see what the battlement is.
The artillerymen in the turret are all under General Liao, this kind of technical work can not find those new hands, not to mention anything else, just the method of positioning, without a year or two of experience can not touch the way at all, those artillery men heard General Liao's order, and immediately began to adjust the distance to the archers under the city.
Ten breaths later, when the cannon sounded, the Galdan below was startled, and it made him feel distressed when he looked at it again, and the row of archers was basically surrounded by the artillery, and none of them escaped.
The artillerymen of Beijing City have been strictly trained, the arrangement of these artillery pieces are exquisite, all the artillery on the city head can cover the distance of fifty meters to five hundred meters under the city when it is turned on at the same time, the Shenji battalion in order to make the emperor happy, studied this thing for a long time, and guaranteed that if there is an enemy attacking the city, they will be able to make them have no way to retreat, although many artillery pieces are dumb at this time, but several important artillery points are still there, if all the artillery is there, General Liao directly bombed Galdan away, It's not as much trouble as it is now.
There were more than 200 of those archers, except for those who were directly hit by shells, the rest were rushed to their bodies by the air waves of artillery and even shrapnel into their bodies. It is estimated that there is no means of rescue in this era, except for a small number of people who are lucky, most of them will die in pain.
Although the death of the two hundred archers is distressed, the five condor archers are even more distressing in comparison, and it is estimated that Galdan will wake up in distress when he sleeps tonight.
