"Fire!" With the roar of the officer, the red-eyed soldier fiercely pulled the trigger of the heavy machine gun, only to see the muzzle of the gun blazing, the long tongue of fire licking the air, and the smoke of gunpowder suddenly filled the air. Naturally, several officers of the Northern Army on the tower of the city had already entered the eyes of the machine gunners, and for them, these officers in front of them were the cause of the deaths of their relatives and friends, so they were given priority to be "taken care of" by the machine gunners.

The fire whip sprayed from the muzzle of the machine gun hit the city tower back and forth, and the city tower was beaten into smoke and dust, and the officers who were full of confidence and waited to see the "southern Yankees" below surrender after killing each other suddenly had more than a dozen blood holes on their bodies, and one by one they spat blood and fell to the ground, and one of them was even pushed back and forth by the thrust of the bullets and fell from the city tower. A tall pillar was directly interrupted by machine-gun fire, and the entire tower let out a terrible creaking sound, which soon began to shake under the gaze of everyone, and finally collapsed with a loud bang. The collapse of the city tower kicked up a huge amount of smoke and dust, which immediately covered the entire city gate and the nearby city wall of more than ten meters.

All this happened in just half a minute, and the soldiers of the Northern Army on the city tower were frightened by the black monster in front of them, and they didn't even think to dodge in the face of the rapid firepower, but stood at the edge of the battlement and looked down one by one, looking at this grim reaper.

The Heavy did not participate in the last battle, and their main task at that time was to load the ammunition plate of the machine gun, and only those who were well equipped could serve as a bombardier. With this experience, these bombardiers were engrossed in observing how the machine gunners sent by the "Senate" were shooting, and they already knew how to shoot and how to aim. Now the instructors are standing around, and it is up to them to shoot, all with passion, of course. In addition, every soldier with a weapon on the castle tower basically has an unforgettable hatred with them, and they are all their enemies directly or indirectly, and the machine gunners at this moment, in addition to passion, are also full of red eyes, aiming carefully in the shooting, picking every target worthy of shooting.

The nerds on the city tower are stupid and still at the moment, such a good opportunity machine gunners will certainly not let go, except for the places that are covered by smoke and dust and cannot be seen clearly, as long as there are people with red tasseled helmets on their heads near the other battlements, they will shoot first! Those who hold the flag, shoot first! Operators on the side of the artillery, shoot first! The whip didn't stop, firing two rounds on the walls, at first the Heavy only fired selectively at what he felt was valuable, but in the back, as long as it looked like a person, the Heavy would shoot three or five shots.

This Type 1628 heavy machine gun was modified by a new design in 1630, it is no longer air-cooled, but water-cooled, with this continuous shooting, the machine gun side has been emptied of more than a dozen bomb supply plates, the machine gun water cooling pipe is spraying water vapor outward. Smoke from the gunpowder and barrels wafted near the machine-gun position, blackening the faces of the machine gunners and soldiers next to them. However, they didn't care, and the soldier in charge of loading the bullet went around from the back to pick up the empty bullet board that had fallen to the side and handed it to his comrades on the other side. The soldiers at the bullet box lifted the bullet box from the car behind it like tireless ants, placed it on the ground, and someone used a crowbar to pry it open, loaded the bullet into the empty bullet plate, and then handed it to the ammunition supplier, and everything flowed like an assembly line.

"Stop shooting! Stop shooting! The instructor next to him shouted, "Add water!" Hurry up and add water! ”

It turned out that with the happy shooting of the soldiers just now, no one noticed that the water filling valve on the side of the water tank had inadvertently opened automatically, the barrel is an extremely important part of the machine gun, and the bullet must pass through the rifling of the barrel to get sufficient rotation to obtain the ability to increase the range. The frequency of firing of machine guns is much higher than that of rifles, and often the machine guns can fire more than ten rounds in a cycle of one round from the rifle, which will only be more for the current Senate rifles. The more bullets rub in the rifling of the barrel, the more powerful the heat can be emitted, and if left unchecked, the barrel of the machine gun will begin to soften and twist at high temperatures in a short period of time, and finally directly cause the bullet in the barrel to explode, causing accidents and casualties. The function of the water tank is to continuously inject water into the water-cooled tube around the barrel through the principle of the communicator, and ensure that the temperature of the barrel does not exceed 100 degrees Celsius through the evaporation of water vapor, so as to ensure the normal use of the barrel.

In order to prevent the shooters from playing so happily that they forgot to add water, Lin Shenhe also designed a float while designing the water tank, which was connected with the water filling valve on the top of the water tank through a lever, and once the water level dropped to the warning position, the door of the water filling valve would automatically open, reminding the shooters not to forget to add water. But it had been several days since the last shot, and the soldiers had tried to put the water in the machine gun while carrying it, and the continuous firing had quickly evaporated the water in the tank. Although the instructors of the Senate had repeatedly taught the future Heavy the importance of refilling water at the outset, none of the soldiers, who had received little culture and were carried away by hatred, noticed that the tank was almost empty.

"Water! Get water! The machine gunner quickly stopped firing, but the soldiers around him looked at each other, this position was originally the garrison area of the Ito Legion of the South Bank Army, and at this moment you can still see the traces of paddy fields, but there are no weeds in it, the previous canal is just a dry earthen ditch at the moment, and the water supply canal in front of it has long been destroyed when Ito's legion moved, and now there is only water in the boundary river in the area within a radius of a few miles. Jiezhen is more than a kilometer away from the riverbank, and even if you run at full speed, it will take at least ten minutes to run to the river, not to mention running back with buckets of water, and when the water is sent back, it's been half an hour, and you're still a fart?

"Why don't you pee?" A soldier next to him had a bad idea, but he was quickly reprimanded by the instructor, "What kind of pee?" The urine is full of chemical elements, and if it is used as cooling water, it will definitely dry up and crystallize on the barrel, and eventually lead to uneven heating, and may eventually explode. Go fetch water! Tell your sister to go fetch water, and hurry up! ”

At this time, Ma Xiang's voice roared beside him, "All the infantry are assembled!" Get ready for a salvo! ”

The riflemen had been attracted by the pomp and circumstance of the machine guns firing before, and they stood in place and stunned like the Northern Army on the city wall, the only difference was that they were on the side of the slaughterers, and when the machine guns roared and knocked the people on the city wall on their backs, they only had to cover their ears and open their mouths to watch the excitement here. It was only after the machine guns stopped firing that they regained some of their hearing, and at this moment they heard the word assembly, and each rifleman's eyes lit up at this moment.

After the earth, the land and the earth are alone, and the enemy technique does not pass through the moon

They had thoroughly appreciated the terrifying power of the Senate rifles in their hands in the previous battle, and before that they were helpless in the face of the pursuers of the Southern Army, and often had to flee for the wind, and even more than a dozen scouts could chase after the thousands of people in front of them on bicycles. But when they also got their shots, the arrogant Southerners on the opposite side tasted the bitterness, and the salvo in the woods killed the Southerners in rows, and the corpses were densely strewn all over the huge gentle slope. Now that the "own people" on the walls of Jiezhen have slaughtered their own relatives and friends, then it is time to use such a terrible weapon to make them pay for their stupidity.

"Reload!" Ma Xiang issued orders loudly, and the officers next to him ran back and forth, loudly repeating Ma Xiang's orders in a roaring voice. The red-eyed riflemen rushed forward with passion, stood in line according to the instructions of the officers, took off their rifles and began to load. At this moment, they placed the muzzle of the gun on the ground one by one, stuffed the paper shell fixed ammunition into the chamber of the gun, and then used the small nail hanging on the gun body to puncture the paper shell from the fire door to make sure that the propellant inside was oozing, and then took out a fire cap from the pocket on his waist, put it on the fire door and fixed it, and then picked up the rifle.

The enemy is far away, and the ball battle is cold

As the machine gun fire stopped, the bewildered defenders poked their heads out from behind the battlements, of course they wanted to see why the enemy had stopped firing, and at the same time they wanted to find out if there was a way to hit the enemy under the city. Soon many defenders picked up their bows and arrows and began to shoot arrows towards the city, and the arrows flew sparsely in the air, but for the distance of about two hundred meters between the two sides, it was meaningless at all, only three or four arrows flew to five or six meters in front of the riflemen's array, and the other arrows all fell on the halfway, and did not pose a threat to these "invaders" in the slightest.

Seeing that the more than two hundred riflemen had already set up their attack formations, and most of them held their rifles in front of their chests, Ma Xiang nodded, pulled out his 1628 revolver from his waist, and shouted loudly towards the city wall, "Shoot!" ”

"Bang bang bang-" With the sound of gunfire, the bullets once again swept through the city like a storm. The defenders who tried to continue shooting were immediately hit in a large area, and many of the unlucky ones were even shot and fell off the back of the wall, and many more were splashed with blood, covering their wounds and lying on the trail to gasp.

Revenge that is pleasing to the eye under the city is as terrifying as hell at the head of the city, and bloody corpses can be seen everywhere on the city walls, some with a big hole in the chest, and some with a huge hole in the head, but there is no wound that does not gurgle out.

It's not that they haven't defended the city, but they have never had experience defending the city like now, where they can only be attacked by the opponent at will, and cannot do any damage to the enemy. For these defenders, the officers who were originally the brains were strafed by machine guns on the tower, and the veterans who dared to fight, as the backbone, were killed or wounded in the next rifle volley, and even if they were not injured, they did not dare to raise their heads to shoot arrows arrogantly at this moment.

"Cannon!" "Quick! Drag the cannon over! "Suddenly there was a shout on the city wall, and the soldiers who heard the shout suddenly lifted their spirits, yes! There are cannons on the walls of the boundary town.

The knot is not the subject of the lone ball, and the ball is the orphan grandson

These cannons were captured by the Northern Army after breaking through the Boundary River and fighting the main force of Russell's Maidno Marine Army, when they stealthily crossed a cavalry unit in the lower reaches of the Boundary River, and then used the Southern Army's army to kill the Maidno in front, and then used that cavalry unit to launch a surprise attack from the right flank of the Maidno people. Russell's army rushed out of the boundary town at that time, originally planned to annihilate the enemy at the ferry, but he didn't expect to be stabbed in the waist in the middle of the road, and the army was in chaos for a while, and the original iron bucket encirclement tactics were broken, but the losses were heavy, and Russell, who went to supervise the battle, almost sent his life in the chaos of the army, if it weren't for the loyalty of his subordinates to protect him from escaping, I am afraid that even his own life would be sent inside. The escaped dragoons protected Russell all the way, and did not even return to Jiezhen, but fled directly to Hue, leaving the main force of the Medenor land in place, and of course, by the way, they abandoned the several twelve-pounder bronze cannons originally set up by the Medeno in Jiezhen.

"Get out of the way! The cannon is coming! A soldier shouted loudly, and a few soldiers not far away leaned low, pushing a bronze cannon and moving slowly towards this side. Although the soldiers were lying low, there were still many body parts exposed, and as a dense burst of shooting rang out from below, several soldiers outside were shot and fell to the ground. An officer next to him yelled loudly, "Don't stop! Hurry up! Hurry up! ”

The soldiers didn't have time to hesitate, and hurriedly stepped forward to continue pushing the cannons, but before they could take two steps, they heard the sound of shooting outside the city, and the soldiers who had just come forward immediately fell to the ground staggering. No one wanted to come up at this time, and the soldiers hid behind the low wall one by one, and did not dare to stick their heads out to peek, and even the officers who gave the order were frightened by this round of shooting at this moment, and hid under the low wall and did not dare to move.
