Chapter 281: The Flying Fire Succeeds in the First World War

At the second watch of the night, Wang Zhong led the Green Wolf Battalion and the eight troops and horses of Dengzhou with a total of 6,000 men and horses to attack the soldiers of Beisha City on the periphery of Qingni City. As soon as they came up, the Green Wolf Battalion immediately took out a batch of black powder that Li Jing had just secretly delivered to them when it came up. There are only two types of black powder that has just been prepared, one is filled with clay pots, which are filled with a large number of ceramic fragments and broken nails and iron pieces in addition to gunpowder. The other is in the form of a gunpowder bag, which is tied with a cloth wrapper. Because Li Jing felt that the power of gunpowder was too small, he could only win by quantity, each of which weighed 20 catties in clay pots, and the gunpowder packaging was as high as 30 catties.

This time, Li Jing took out almost all the gunpowder in stock, a total of 100 gunpowder canisters, and 100 gunpowder packets. The gunpowder was controlled by a special person transferred from the workshop, and Li Jing strictly forbade other people to touch the gunpowder, firstly to avoid leaking secrets, and secondly, to be afraid of mistakes in the operation. If this mistake and explode in your own pile, it would be quite tragic.

Twenty specially transferred craftsmen personally acted as gunners at this time, and twenty counterweight projectiles with a range of up to 500 paces were lined up and pushed to the front of the formation. The king gave an order, and the herald hurriedly waved the trumpet and sounded the order.

Twenty artillery throwers were immediately fired at Beisha City, and the first round of stone projectiles weighing twenty or thirty pounds was fired. The first round of stone catapults shot out and smashed into the enemy formation, taking only a dozen lives with them. In the second round, the gunpowder canisters and gunpowder packets had already begun to be loaded, and everyone was nervous as they lit the fuses on the gunpowder canisters and gunpowder packs, and the sparks and white smoke were buzzing with sparks.

Everyone had already heard that this was the kind of flying fire that Duli Town used to annihilate Li Lingfu's army. The people of Duli Town boasted that this was their city lord's dream of being taught by the Taishang Laojun. But after the officers above came back from a meeting yesterday. But they told the soldiers below. In fact, we already have this flying fire in Shamen Town. At the same time that the Dragon King of the East China Sea taught the general the divine fire, he also taught the flying fire together. However, the general used to think that the flying fire was much worse than the divine fire, so he never took it out and used it.

All the generals were convinced of this speech, and now that they saw that the general really came out with a flying fire, they couldn't help but be excited.

Ten gunpowder canisters and ten gunpowder cannons were ejected, whistling into the night sky with flames and smoke, and a heart-warming lonely coin streaked across the dark night sky. Then it fell into the battle of Beisha City accurately. Because he had known that Gao Rong and the other three men and horses were stationed on the left flank, these twenty shells directly bombarded the Chinese army.

Seeing that the twenty flying fires accurately fell into the enemy formation, but after waiting for several breaths, they still didn't see the earth-shattering movement in their imagination, Wang Zhong and the other soldiers couldn't help but look at the twenty craftsmen. The craftsmen were red-faced when they were looked at, thinking that they were sweating profusely wherever they manipulated the mistakes.

At this moment, everyone only felt a slight shaking under their feet, followed by a thunderbolt sounding in their ears, which made everyone a little dizzy. Immediately afterward, the crowd saw that they were in the midst of the enemy's ranks. One after another flashed red light, and then the flames soared into the sky. You can even see that many enemy troops were directly lifted into the air, and some were blown apart directly in the air, becoming several halves, and the stumps and broken arms fell all over the sky, and blood was spilled in the sky.

Everyone was shocked, stunned and stared at the position hundreds of paces away from the opposite side. The brethren in Camp Wolf were better, as they had already learned that they were going to use Spitfire. However, this time, the five thousand soldiers from the eight departments of Dengzhou who came to reap the benefits were all shocked. They used to only know that there was a divine fire in Shamen Town, which could burn on water. I didn't expect to see this more powerful weapon now.

"What the hell is this?" Cui Ancheng, the ten generals of Chishan Town, who watched the battle together, looked incredulous, and turned his head to ask Wang Chongdao with some stammering.

The shock in Wang Zhong's heart was not much better than Cui Ancheng, and he was thinking that the general was really not an ordinary person, he was really a person favored by God. Otherwise, how could the Divine Fire and Spitfire be taught to the general together. Hearing Cui Ancheng's question, Wang Chong pretended to be calm, and said with a smile: "This is what the Dragon King of the East China Sea taught my general's divine fire when he taught it together, which is called Feihuo." ”

"Could it be that this is the kind of heavenly fire that Duli Town used to defeat Li Lingfu?"

"The recipe used in Duli Town is actually stolen from our general, and he dares to say that he is taught by gods and men. If it was a god who taught them, why didn't he teach them the divine fire together. ”

Cui Ancheng completely believed Wang Chong's words and nodded again and again.

At this time, the craftsmen who had just thought that they had made a mistake also breathed a sigh of relief, raised their heads with their chests, and said with a proud face: "See it, Feihuo has to fight like this." You Gua Wa, you know donkey ball! Quick, give those donkey ball stuff in Bersa a few more times. ”

The soldiers who were watching the battle from the sidelines also hurriedly shouted: "Come on a few more times, and take them down directly." ”

After some operation, another round of twenty fires was fired, and the soldiers of Beisha City, who had just been in the midst of the violent shock and panic of the firefire attack, were bombarded again.

Although the Shamon Army's Flying Fire is already being used for the second time, the town of Duli has already taken the lead in using it earlier. But the people of Beisha City have only heard of Spitfire, but they have never seen it, let alone been hit. In the face of this kind of thing like heavenly thunder, they had no idea that they had to disperse the array and lie down in order to better minimize the casualties.

Bursts of fire fell into the dense and chaotic enemy formation, each time dealing far more damage than the craftsmen had expected. Li Jing told them at the beginning that this gunpowder was actually terrifying, and the real lethality was not great, unless it was used at a time of hundreds of catties or thousands of catties, making a big trap and waiting for the enemy's dense array to stand up and detonate, there would be major casualties. But now, they estimate that every time the fire explodes, it can kill at least a dozen people, and what is more powerful is not to kill the enemy directly, but to kill and injure a large number of enemy soldiers. The iron nails, iron sheets, porcelain and other objects in those clay pots and gunpowder bags can shoot and injure dozens of people at once every time they are splashed with the explosion, many people even die directly from the fragmentation attack, and many people are bleeding profusely.

In the face of such a powerful flying fire, Zhang Dewei, who was supervising the battle in the back, turned pale, he never thought that the Shamen Town Army would actually have flying fire. Although he was still shocked by the power of Spitfire, he was even more terrified of why Salmon Town had Spitfire? Duli Town had just used Flying Fire and annihilated 40,000 Li Lingfu's allied troops in a battle. After the war, they showed off everywhere that this flying fire was taught to Wang Pu by Taishang Naijun. If that's the case, then why did Li Jing suddenly have this kind of flying fire?

Remembering that Duli Town had previously handed over all the millions of compensation to Shamen Town, Wang Pu also sent his concubine to Shamen Town. He felt chills all over his body, and he shuddered. Could it be that all this is a big trap, Duli Town and Li Jing have secretly joined forces a long time ago, so Li Lingfu sent troops and Li Jing did not participate. And now Duli Town has handed over the flying fire to Li Jing and asked him to kill his own Beisha Army?

For what? Is it for the sake of Green Mud City and Beisha City?

Zhang Dewei was flustered and frightened, and he now felt that Li Jing and Wang Pu were working together to calculate him. Perhaps the three million huge money that Duli Town gave to Li Jing was not the indemnity for defeat, but the price that Li Jing helped Duli Town to win Qingni City and Beisha City.

"Withdraw! Retreat to the city! Zhang Dewei is now extremely frightened, and his heart is about to break when he looks at his subordinates who are constantly wailing and falling.

The Beisha Army, which had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, immediately began to retreat desperately, and there was still some formation at first, but a shout of killing sounded behind it, and after seeing the Shamen Town Army covering up, it immediately began to collapse. The crowd scrambled to flee into the city, the drawbridge was crowded, and countless people were squeezed into the moat. The gates of the city were blocked, and those fierce people who were anxious to enter the city even began to cut people with knives directly, wanting to kill a bloody way.

At this time, Gao Rong and other Sanfan soldiers and horses on the left wing also slashed directly at the friendly troops around them, rushed directly to the West Gate, forcibly killed under the West Gate, and occupied the West Gate. At first, the Beisha army thought that these barbarians were afraid of death. But when Gao Rong guarded the gate of the city and did not go inside, but set fire around, and lined up a shield array, covering the crossbowmen behind him to shoot arrows at the Beisha soldiers who were pouring outside, they suddenly reacted, and these dog-day Hu people actually betrayed them by making trouble.

Zhang Dewei's Chinese army retreated to the south gate, and there were not many people who returned from the west gate, which made Gao Rong's 3,000 men and horses actually capture the west gate.

When Wang Chong saw that the west gate was on fire, he immediately ordered the whole army to cover up and kill him, and went straight to the west gate. With Gao Rong's 3,000 soldiers responding, Wang Chong led his troops to successfully enter Xicheng, and the Beisha army was suddenly in chaos. Zhang Dewei originally wanted to hold on to the city, but unexpectedly, the West Gate was lost under the first battle. When he heard of the rebellion of the three thousand soldiers, he almost fainted from his horse and fell off his horse. He hurriedly gathered his subordinates to recapture the West Gate, and the two armies met in the West City, fighting on the streets.

When the battle was not long, a group of men and horses suddenly came out of the back of the Beisha army, and there were not many soldiers and horses, about 1,000 people. At the beginning, a young general, carrying phoenix wings on his head, wearing a red mountain armor, a red horse in his crotch, holding a horse lance, took the lead, and came straight to kill, it was Li Juren, the eldest son of Li Lingfu who was originally trapped in the inner city. He saw that the fire in the outer city was rising, and the shouts of killing continued, knowing that it was the arrival of reinforcements, he didn't care about the persuasion of the old manager Li Meng, so he ordered the last 1,000 soldiers and horses, and killed them directly, but he was caught off guard by Liu Dewei. For a while, he was attacked by the enemy on both sides, and he could no longer support it, leading the defeated army to abandon the city and flee. (To be continued......)
