On the city wall, the Pengzhou army fell into disarray. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Every time a shell hit the city gate, the hearts of the Pengzhou defenders cooled, especially when the black projectiles passed through the city gate and shook the stone wall, they became more and more afraid.
The stone wall was built overnight to prevent the gates from being blasted open by artillery, but now it is clear that the stone wall will not help at all.
The soldiers of the Pengzhou army were able to barely hold on to the shelling of the battleship, and the battleship was aiming at the city gate instead of them, which made them feel a fluke, but when the white lime powder covered the city walls, they could no longer keep their calm.
Soldiers with burned eyes from lime powder wailed at the top of the city, and lime bullets exploded one after another above their heads, white dust covering the front walls like mist.
In the face of the pervasive lime powder, the soldiers of the Pengzhou Army on the city wall covered their eyes in batches and howled, although the lime powder could not cause them serious injuries, it was enough to make them incapacitated.
On the other side of the Bianshui River, Lu Fei and Luo Xin observed the situation on the city wall, a large number of Pengzhou soldiers were replaced, and then a large number of soldiers were replaced.
"Luo Xin, it's time to change the field artillery." Lu Fei said quietly.
Unlike the fixed-angle naval guns on different warships, the field guns are much more flexible, and the soldiers can adjust the angle of the guns according to the target at any time.
Luo Xin understood that Lu Fei meant to let him bombard the city wall with solid bullets and lime bullets at the same time, so that some soldiers could lose their combat effectiveness while killing and injuring some of them, so that the psychological deterrence to the Pengzhou army would be greater.
Turning his head to look at the field artillery that had been prepared, Luo Xin said: "Fire at the enemy hiding behind the battlements!" ”
"Yes."
After receiving the order, the field artillery immediately adjusted the angle and aimed at the city head, and then the field was afraid to pour solid bullets onto the city head at the same time, and suddenly the battlements on the city gate were directly shattered by solid bullets, and these stone walls could not withstand the bombardment of solid bullets at all.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Solid bullets flew towards the city, but in a short period of time, the walls of Pengzhou City were full of holes, the battlements fell one by one, and the soldiers at the head of the city even had no place to hide.
This round of shelling made the city more and more chaotic, but Lu Fei did not rush to let the soldiers rush into the city through the temporary bridge, he was waiting, waiting for the psychology of these soldiers to completely collapse.
Luo Hong waited for Lu Fei's order, and at the same time looked at Luo Xin's artillery with envy, the field guns and various types of shells of these artillery were really eye-catching.
The shelling continued, without the slightest intention of stopping, but the Pengzhou army at the head of the city gradually became more and more scarce.
Behind the city wall, Mi Kuang urged the soldiers to climb the city wall, but none of the soldiers were willing to go up to their deaths.
"Go up, go up!"
Mi Kuang urged another group to go up to the city wall, and at the same time he beheaded a soldier who had escaped from the city wall in front of him.
Blood splattered, and the soldiers looked at their comrades who were killed by Mi Kuang, their eyes gradually turned red, and they didn't know who shouted loudly at this time. "Brothers, stop working for these wealthy families, see? Our lives are not worth bullshit in their eyes, our brothers did not die under the fire of Qingzhou, but died in the hands of these wealthy people. ”
"Brothers, the army of King Qi entered the city to kill this group of wealthy families who oppressed the people, we people will only get a share of the land and live the same life as the people of Qingzhou, don't die in vain, we can't stop the Qingzhou army." The voice rang out again.
"Who! Who is it! ”
Mi Kuang's eyes became redder and redder, and they frantically searched among the crowded soldiers, and all the soldiers who stood in front of him were pushed away by him.
Finally, he found the source of the sound, which was a group of people who were helping to carry the materials for defending the city under the city, and one of them was a middle-aged man who looked directly at Mi Kuang without fear.
"Is that you?" Mi Kuang asked.
"It's me." The young man's eyes were filled with hatred, "Mi Kuang, you robbed my land, took my wife and daughter, and today you want me to guard the city for you, phew!" You wolf-hearted things should be killed one by one like the wealthy people in Qingzhou! ”
Mi Kuang's face was distorted, the attack of the Qingzhou army had already made him fall into madness, and he scolded: "It turned out to be you dog thief, I will kill you today, so that you and that pair of sluts can meet underground." ”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes instantly turned red, Mi Kuang's words already explained how his wife and daughter are now?
Just as Mi Kuang raised the bloody sword in his hand and rushed towards the middle-aged man, at this time, the middle-aged man suddenly took out a short-barreled musket from his sleeve cage and shot at Mi Kuang.
After the gunshot, Mi Kuang looked at the musket in the middle-aged man's hand in disbelief, he looked down at his chest, blood gushed down his chest, and after a whirlwind, he fell.
At this time, among the middle-aged people, someone suddenly took out a firework and lit it, and then the fireworks instantly rushed into the sky and exploded in the air.
The middle-aged man shouted: "Mi Kuang is dead, are you still obsessed?" The brothers drove these wealthy families out of Pengzhou City, and the land here will be ours in the future. ”
How could other soldiers from the big clan tolerate the middle-aged man to continue to bewitch, and the hundreds of soldiers who followed Mi Kuang immediately killed these people.
It's just that when they started, the soldiers from the poor people's families also moved, and they protected the middle-aged people in the middle, and at this moment, an agitated trumpet suddenly sounded outside the city gate.
The people around the middle-aged man smiled, this is the charge of the Qingzhou army, and the middle-aged people are different, they are from the secret guards, and this operation was planned by Li Sanyi.
"Kill!"
The roar outside the city gate became more and more intense, and the soldiers on the city wall saw the soldiers climb onto the battleship and rush directly to the city gate.
These climbed up from the other side of the battleship, lay down from the third battleship, and the soldiers who reached the ground immediately formed a formation of soldiers in silver armor in front and musketeers in the back.
Maintaining a tight formation, they rushed to the city gates.
Lu Fei watched the situation on the battlefield for a moment, everyone in the Southern Expeditionary Army knew the signal of the secret guards, and the signal just now showed that the secret guards must have achieved important results in the city.
At this time, he immediately ordered his soldiers to charge and seize the city gate, as long as the city gate was taken and the chain bridge was rearranged, the subsequent cavalry could enter the city smoothly.
"Bang Bang ......"
After the first batch of soldiers entered the city, they immediately found a large number of Pengzhou soldiers gathered behind the city gate, and at this time, the sword and shield men who were protecting the musketeers in front immediately crouched down, and the musketeers immediately took three shots to shoot the soldiers who rushed over.
In the gunpowder and white smoke, the soldiers of the Pengzhou Army who rushed over fell one by one, but more soldiers rushed towards them.
