Chapter 276 Quasi-Coating Cart
More than a mile away from the Ming Army Tucheng, Zhang Qinglin saw the orange-yellow fire above the Ming Army Tucheng ahead, and a small black dot flew out of the rising white smoke, dragging a faint smoke and flying towards him.
"Red Cannon!" Zhang Qinglin, who had been through many battles, knew it was a heavy cannon when he heard the sound of the shell, and he screamed in shock.
The twelve-pound field artillery shells slammed heavily on a simple shield car with a whistling sound. The shells easily penetrated the shield car guard plate, and countless broken wooden boards splashed out. Several young and strong Han people behind the cart could not dodge, and their faces were covered with broken wooden pieces. The injured young and strong Han people covered their wounds and fell to the ground and made a scammering scream.
The shell that penetrated the guard plate had its own power and directly hit a young and strong Han man. He immediately smashed himself to pieces and turned into a scattered blood rain. The shell landed on the ground, jumped up again, and hit the green man who turned around and had not had time to run away, breaking one of his legs.
Flesh and blood were flying, and screaming in terror. More than a dozen injured young and strong lying on the ground. These were all Han people who were captured by the Later Jin army and were ready to take them back to Liaodong to serve as coats. They are now deposed.
"All these useless wastes have been cut down!" a Zhuangda shouted.
Several Jurchen soldiers stepped forward, waved their swords, and raised their swords and fell. All the injured young and strong Han people fell to the ground.
Another twelve-pound shell flew out. Although it did not hit the shield car, it hit the Korqin Mongolian soldiers behind. The shells pulled a straight line in the crowd, bounced up again after landing, hitting the side, and then bounced up again. It pulled out a crooked flesh-and-blood alley in the crowd, causing at least seventy or eighty Korqin Mongolians to be killed and injured.
The Mongolians were frightened by the scene of flesh and blood flying, and dozens of Mongolian soldiers turned around and fled.
The Jurchen soldiers behind showed no mercy to these most loyal allies of the Great Jin Kingdom. More than a dozen Kabush Xianchao soldiers came up with tiger-toothed swords and killed all the Mongolian soldiers who turned around and fled.
"Escaper at the last battle, kill!" A Kabush Xian Chao's camp was divided into Shiku, holding a bloody Mongolian soldier's head in his hand, and shouted at the top of his lungs.
The Korqin Mongols were resentful. Not only did they not get much benefit from this invasion, but they were dragged to be cannon fodder by the Jurchens, which ruined many brothers in vain. Such a loss is really not worth it. However, the Jurchen soldiers who were like wolves and tigers were fighting behind the scenes, and they dared not escape. Many Korqin Mongols had already made up their minds: If they could not break the Ming army's village today, it would be better to withdraw their troops to the evening and find an opportunity to escape back to the Korqin grassland. The Han soldiers' books said that thirty-six strategies were the best strategy.
Next, the Later Jin army faced the rotation of six six-pound field artillery shooting. Two shells flew out. Although the two shells failed to hit the shield cart, one fell into the young and strong Han people pushing the cart, knocking down more than 30 people, and the other shell fell into the Mongolian soldiers, smashing more than 20 Mongolians, and knocking over the six Jurchen soldiers behind. Then two more cannons sounded, and two shells roared, smashing a shield cart, killing and injuring more than 40 people; the third round of six-pound shells flew over, and another shield cart was tilted to the side...
"What is that?" Dorgon in the back formation pointed at the sky.
Yue Tuo raised his head and saw two black dots flying into the sky, pulling out an extremely high arc, and falling to the ground. He frowned and said, "What the hell is it?"
Before he finished speaking, two black dots had already landed among the Later Jin crowd behind the Mongols. The Later Jin soldiers had a dense formation. They watched the shells land on the ground but had nowhere to dodge. Two shells landed on the ground, and one of them was directly smashed by the shells from the top of their heads. The whole person immediately turned into a pool of meat mud. The shells that landed on the ground jumped up, and all the people they hit were flying everywhere.
This time, the mortar shells fired by Li Guodong were not stone bullets made of stones, but serious iron bullets, with a large iron ball weighing 64 pounds, falling from a high altitude to the ground and hitting the person directly. The corpse was gone and hit by the bouncing big iron ball, either dead or injured.
The Later Jin army was closer to the city wall, and four three-pound iron field guns also made roars. The power of the three-pound guns was much smaller than that of the twelve-pound guns and six-pound guns, but they could also destroy simple shield cars. Four shells crashed into the crowd, and the quasi-coat and the Mongolians screamed and fell down.
Some of the quasi-coated men were so scared that they threw down the shield cart, turned around and ran away, all of which were chopped over by the Jurchen soldiers in a pool of blood.
"Don't leave, our shield cart is strong and can block the Ming dog shelling!" Zhang Qinglin patted several young and strong Han people who were pushing carts. Although these Han people had just been plundered from the Datong area, they would be coated by the Great Jin Kingdom in the future. Maybe they could be divided into a few of them. Zhang Qinglin regarded them as his property.
The shield car array continued to approach Tucheng, and two powerful twelve-pound field cannons roared again. The distance was closer. The twelve-pound field cannons were even more accurate. Two cannons were bombed out, and the two shield cars turned into fragments, killing and injuring at least 155 and sixty people.
"The Ming Dog in the Tucheng City is ahead, and the firearm is sharp! Unfortunately, Kong Youde and his men's Wuzhen Chao Ha Camp did not follow him, otherwise they would be able to defeat the Ming Dog with red cannons!" Dorgon said angrily.
Yue Tuo pointed to his chest and said, "Uncle Fourteenth, you are wrong. When two countries fight, the winners and losses are not in the weapons, but in the hearts of the people! Although the Ming Dynasty firearms are sharp, they do not understand the hearts of the people. The Ming Dynasty's people rose up and the Ming Dynasty's court has long been unpopular. The Zhu family's vassal kings encircled land and officials embezzled the people's fields. The Ming Dynasty has long been rotten to the roots! Even if there are sharp firearms, how can we suppress the surging rebels? As long as we robbed the Ming Dynasty from time to time and cheered on the fire of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will sooner or later be destroyed."
Dorgon nodded: "Yue Tender's nephew's words are reasonable! The Khan recruits talents, but Chongzhen's tyrant king does not understand people's hearts. Victory will sooner or later belong to our Great Jin Kingdom!"
With the advancement of the shield formation of the Later Jin army, the artillery fire of the Ming army became even more fierce. Before the Later Jin army could advance to the first trench, more than 20 shield chariots were broken, with broken wood and incomplete corpses everywhere.
The shield chariot array finally advanced to the first trench, but there was a deer fort in front of it blocking the way. The trumpet-coat could only leave the shield chariot and went in front to try to move the deer fort, but was shot by the Nine-headed Bird musket, Folang machine cannon and tiger squat cannon at the top of the city a hundred steps away. Many people had just left the shield chariot and were knocked over in a pool of blood before they even walked to the deer fort.
Although Li Guodong cast new artillery himself, the old-fashioned Folang and tiger squat cannons seized or collected from all over the world did not give up and were also taken to the battlefield. After several rounds of emergency fire of the new artillery, the firepower interval required for heat dissipation, and the old-fashioned cannons can work.
The loading speed of the tiger squat cannon and the Nine-Headed Bird gun is slow. After one round, it takes a long time to load it. However, the Fran machine cannon keeps firing, and can fire a projectile in about ten breaths. The shells swept across the Luzhai and filled the trench with the correct coat.
"General, the ones that Jiannu pushed ahead are all us Han people! They are not Baoyi from Liaodong, they are all people in Datong, and they are the people who were kidnapped by Jiannu." Han Dashan felt a little embarrassed.
Li Guodong said with a stern face and a heart of iron: "Now is not the time when I am merciful and merciless. I know they are Han people, but they are pushing a shield cart and tens of thousands of Jiannu rushed up. Can we stop it? The court had already announced Xuan Da and asked the people to evacuate. They did not listen to the court's announcement, and they fell into the hands of Jiannu. Now that we are helping Jiannu push the cart, we can only fight."
