Chapter 486: You Come and I Go
After being smashed into the door by a 40mm cannonball, various curses immediately sounded in the hole where the stumps and arms were broken into pieces. Moreover, they are all Chinese-based, and it seems that it is a traitor army that has been sent out.
Then, immediately after the doorway, someone waved his knife and began to slash and kill the Houjin soldiers who had stayed still, driving them to continue their advance.
The remnants of the Houjin soldiers in the door hole were pressed by the bullet and continued to rush out in the direction of the door hole, and the threatened soldiers kept making all kinds of howls in their mouths.
The riflemen of the infantry of the Huaxia Army on the edge of the trench fired a volley, and the soldiers of the Houjin Army, who were running in front, were almost knocked to the ground in the front.
Unfortunately, the threat of a salvo of muskets was still not as good as the threat of the rear overseers and officers, and the salvo from the opposite side could kill some of them at most, while the overseers in the back had the right to clean up their families who were hostages in the rear.
Therefore, the soldiers of the Houjin Army in the back, even if they had seen the tragic image of their comrades running in front being killed, were still rushing out.
The artillery platoon commander kept holding his right hand, and he didn't mean to put it down, and the gun commander standing on the No. 2 gun position was a little anxious, and couldn't help but ask, "Platoon commander, can you still fight?" The enemy is about to rush out. ”
"Don't worry, I asked you to load the grenade bomb before, just wait for this moment, wait for them to rush out a little more before fighting, when the time comes, let's fight the back, so that the group of Tartars who ran out in front have no need for support, and it will be much easier for the infantry brothers to clean them up."
The two artillery commanders suddenly understood, this is a variant of the tactic of closing the door and beating the dog, the purpose is still to destroy the enemy's living forces.
After all, the enemy army leaving the city did not have the cover of the city wall, and it was much easier to pack up. Every time you kill one more enemy outside the city, you will encounter one less resistance when attacking the city in the future.
After the men and horses of the Houjin army rushed out with nearly 100 people, the other No. 1 gun was also loaded with grenade bombs.
At this time, the artillery platoon commander waved his hand violently, and the No. 2 artillery commander subconsciously pulled the fire cable, and a grenade shot shot out of the gun, and then not far from the gun, tore the outer packaging of the entire warhead.
The more than 70 scattered bombs contained in the warhead spread 60 degrees in front of the warhead and spilled in the direction of the city gate.
The cave of the city gate, as well as the city walls on both sides, were full of crumbling stones, wood, and all kinds of debris scattered in all directions.
A little behind, more than a dozen Houjin soldiers who had just rushed out of the city gate, the blood arrows on their bodies splashed backwards and tumbled and fell to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
Immediately afterwards, under the order of the artillery platoon commander, the commander of the No. 1 gun also pulled the fire rope and fired the grenade that was loaded in the gun chamber.
The open space in front of the cave in the city gate was full of dead or wounded soldiers of the Houjin army, and 40 meters away, the Chinese infantry fired a burst of earth-shattering continuous fire with extremely good military quality.
This series of high-quality, extremely rigorous salvo levels finally broke the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the subsequent Houjin Army.
Although they were still afraid that the Overseers would dispose of their family members who had left Houjin as hostages, it was a matter of reason to think about it, and now, as long as they rushed forward, they would definitely die.
At this time, one round after another on the opposite side, it seemed that the salvo would never stop, and it was really an even more terrifying existence than the Governor team.
They completely ignored the slashing, threats, and angry reprimands of the officers and overseers behind them, and fled back to Fuzhou City in a swarm.
The Huaxia infantrymen who were dodging behind the shield cart were also excited when they saw the enemy's follow-up support units being suppressed back.
The two company commanders who led the attack were very flexible, their eyes rolled, and as soon as they gave an order, they drew their sabers and shouted and rushed out of the shield cart, leading the soldiers to hand over the nearly 100 post-Jin soldiers who had already left the city in front.
The riflemen of the Chinese Army, whose maturing bayonet fighting ability was firmly in the hands of the brave Chinese infantry, made them play an increasingly important role in close combat.
Those soldiers of the Houjin Army, who rushed out and were almost out of formation, suffered heavy losses under the impact of the soldiers of the Huaxia Army who were in strict formation and dared to see red with bayonets.
As soon as the battle was engaged, they were defeated and retreated, and finally, they could not bear the tragic close battle, and turned around and fled into the city.
The two company commanders who led the team had already expected this, and one of the company commanders who rushed ahead shouted "I will rush more", and then led a company that had already crossed the river and rushed towards the cave in the city gate by the tail of the defeated soldiers.
"Didn't you give an order not to enter the city for the time being?" The platoon commander muttered in a low voice.
One of his artillery commanders had worked in the infantry sequence for a while, and he had some understanding of the combat style of the infantry, and after listening to the words of his own platoon commander, he raised his head and interjected.
"Platoon commander, maybe this company of men and horses doesn't really want to seize the city gate, their intention should be just to prepare to block the city gate.
However, if the enemy's troops defending the city gate are broken up, they will also rush in with the enemy's tail, and then the city will be broken. ”
While the two were talking, the infantry of that company had already stepped on the layered, dense, and fragmented corpses of the enemy outside the cave of the city gate.
They followed the rout of a dozen Houjin troops into the city gate, but as soon as they reached the inner exit, they fired a volley of artillery and muskets from both sides of the street.
The small-caliber shells smashed diagonally into the crowd of the pursuing infantry companies of the Huaxia Army, which also brought a bloody storm, and the infantry of the Huaxia Army in the front row fell in rows.
The infantrymen who followed closely behind were a little dazed and sluggish by the loud noise of guns and cannons in the narrow cave of the city gate.
It was because of such a hesitation that a group of archers of the Houjin Army suddenly appeared on the street, facing the city gate, and there was a burst of shooting inside the cave.
The infantry who rushed into the cave of the city gate suffered heavy casualties in an instant, and the remnants of the people hurriedly retreated with the wounded under the counterattack and cover of several heroic non-commissioned officers and veterans.
When the artillery platoon commander saw this scene, he subconsciously scolded, "It's really his XX X, listening to the sound of the artillery fired just now, it should be the general cannon firing, and the golden tartar actually moved these cannons down and used them to block the city gate!" ”
