Chapter 764: Capture!

An oblique round of sunset dyes Songzhou Castle red. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The yellow earth was full of smoke and dust, and the battlefield was full of slaughter.

Luo Quan, Qi Guangyi, and Lu Fei stood together, using binoculars to look at the defenders on the wall of Songzhou not far away.

After Lu Fei scolded Songzhou City, he said: "General Luo, it looks like there are not many barbarian defenders in Songzhou City, and it is not too late to attack the city before the sun sets. “

If it was before, Luo Quan thought that Lu Fei was talking big, but now the military reform and equipment of the Great Chongqing State have given the Great Chongqing State the ability to break through the city gate within two hours.

What's more, this time Lu Fei also led soldiers equipped with new weapons.

"Of course, it would be best if we could capture Songzhou City, so that Hakata could be trapped here and annihilated little by little." Luo Quan nodded.

Qi Guangyi echoed: "That's right, with the trench, it is impossible for the barbarian cavalry to attack the city from the trench under the fire of muskets. ”

Lu Fei rubbed his hands, his favorite thing was to fight, when he was in Jinling City, in addition to the daily training of the army, he was idle to death, and he almost didn't sleep all night when he got the military order.

"Hehe, in that case, try the new musket provided by this military workshop." Lu Fei's eyes narrowed into a line.

He was almost drooling when he saw these new muskets in Jinling City, and after trying them out, he was even more eager to equip his soldiers with them.

If it weren't for the strict military law, he would have had the urge to keep these muskets behind.

The siege was decided, and the army under Songzhou City immediately moved, and Lu Fei asked all the soldiers with muskets to stand at a position of one hundred and fifty meters from the city wall.

According to the information provided by the military workshop, the firing range of the conquest musket is 900 meters, and it can still have accuracy at 500 meters, but at this time the accuracy has dropped to 50 percent, so the best shooting position for the conquest musket is 300 meters, of course, the accuracy within 300 meters will be higher and higher.

From the time when the musket was born, Lu Fei followed Xiao Ming to fight in the south and the north, and he naturally knew how to use this characteristic of the musket.

When facing the defending infantry, he naturally did not need to extend the distance, it was important to ensure the accuracy of his shooting and protect his soldiers from being injured by bows and arrows.

So one hundred and fifty meters is a good distance.

Under his orders, the soldiers armed with muskets lined up in three rows in front of the city gates, and more than 3,000 soldiers within the 600-meter city wall pointed their guns at the soldiers on the city.

Unlike the previous blind shooting, the musketeers carefully aimed at the barbarian defenders on the city walls.

In addition to the array, there were two hundred captured musketeers who played the role of skirmishers, who were distributed in different positions, looking for opportunities to shoot enemy soldiers.

"What are these?" Luo Quan set off in a hurry, and he did not understand the role of these stragglers.

Lu Fei explained: "These soldiers are all selected soldiers in the army who shoot more accurately, and they are responsible for shooting the enemy's generals under the cover of the large phalanx. ”

Luo Quan's eyes lit up, and he nodded, "Capture the thief Xianqin King, wonderful." “

When the two were talking, the array was quickly arranged, and after looking at the sky, Lu Fei yelled at Chen Ting, the artillery captain: "Pull up Lao Tzu's field artillery and blast open the city gate for me!" ”

"Yes, General."

Chen Ting was originally a subordinate of Luo Xin, and after the reform of the army, the artillery was split, and the once excellent artillery generals were scattered into various armies.

Hearing this, he immediately asked the soldiers to pull the field guns drawn by horses over and deploy them in front of the city gate.

After everything was ready, Lu Fei roared: "Fire!" “

As his order was given, the capturing musketeers pulled the trigger one after another, and the fire cap produced sparks that ignited the gunpowder, and with a "bang" of gunshot, the conical bullet went straight to the target along the muzzle.

When the army of the Great Yu Kingdom appeared under the city of Songzhou, the barbarian soldiers in Songzhou City fell into chaos, especially when the subsequent arrival of the firearms unit made the barbarian generals in charge of defending the city feel even heavier.

"What are these soldiers of the Great Yu Kingdom doing, this is at least a hundred and fifty paces away." A barbarian commander wondered.

The commander in the city shook his head, "As far as I know, the muskets of the Great Yu Kingdom do not have such a long range. “

As soon as his words fell, he saw a burst of fire under the city, and the commander suddenly fell down with a muffled snort, and he was shocked when he saw this.

And when he looked at the commander, he saw blood gushing from the commander's chest.

Shocked, he looked at the army of the Great Yu Kingdom outside the city, and at this time, a bullet flashed in his eyes, and before he could react, the bullet entered his eyebrows.

In the blink of an eye, the commanders and commanders in the city fell in pools of blood, and the barbarian soldiers who had lost their command were in chaos.

At the same time as the two fell, all the barbarian soldiers who showed their bodies kept falling, which intensified the chaos of the barbarian soldiers.

Luo Quan and the three of them have been watching the city, and Luo Quan was shocked in his heart, the accuracy and range of the musket this time have indeed improved greatly.

"Hahaha......" Lu Fei laughed, the conscription musket on the battlefield once again proved his ability, and he said to Chen Ting: "Open the cannon!" “

"Boom, boom, boom......"

When the city walls were in chaos, the artillery began to bombard the city gates, and after three volleys, the Songzhou gates collapsed.

"Rush!" With Lu Fei's order, the musketeers with bayonets entered the trenches and moved towards the city gate.

Climbing up to the ground from the trench, he entered the city of Songzhou like a wave.

And the captured musketeers were not idle, they constantly suppressed the barbarian soldiers at the head of the city, preventing them from attacking the soldiers at the gates.

Luo Quan was just talking on paper at the Military Academy, but now he has actually experienced the actual combat of attacking the city with a firearm on the battlefield.

In addition to the shock in his heart, he knew that the era of swords and bows and horses would be gone forever.

With the roar of the trumpet, the musketeers poured into Songzhou City like a tidal wave.

Inside the city, the remnants of the barbarians still inspired resistance, and they rushed at the musketeers who entered the city with machetes in their hands and hideous faces.

Facing the barbarian soldiers in the city, the soldiers of the Great Yu Kingdom looked cold, and the hatred of the country made them even colder and crueler than the barbarian soldiers. 、

Looking at the barbarian soldiers rushing towards them, the musketeers nimbly changed formations, sometimes gathering together to fire a volley at them.

From time to time, they collectively rushed forward with bayonets and fought with the barbarian soldiers.

In the memory of the people of Dayu, the barbarian soldiers have always been barbaric and fierce, but now on the battlefield at this time, the soldiers of Dayu are more courageous.

In six years, the army of the Great Chongqing State has changed from a sheep to a vicious wolf.

The barbarians have always been brave and ruthless, and at this moment they suddenly found that the weak soldiers of the Great Yu Kingdom had become even more fierce than them.

These men carried bayonets like the Grim Reaper, and often killed a barbarian soldier with a single thrust.
