Although the ones that fired the shotgun were old artillery, the tiger squat cannons made by Qi Jiguang's era were all considered teenagers. The more common ones were the Franchise during the Wanli and Jiajing periods. If they were middle-aged main forces, then the whirlwind cannons made during the Zhengde, Hongzhi and Jingtai periods were not considered old people. The real old people were the bowl-mouth guns made during the Yongle and Hongwu periods, and the cub-mouth guns made during the Emperor Shun of Yuan were considered real old birthday stars.

When those old antique cannons fired shotguns at close range, they can exert amazing power. As for the quality issue, it is not a problem at all. In fact, the quality of these old antiques is more reliable than the cannons cast by the Ministry of Works during the Chongzhen period, especially the cannons cast by the Ministry of Works of the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period. Because there was no restraint of the eunuch party, officials of the Ministry of Works of the Ministry of Works of the Ministry of Works of the Ming Dynasty could greed for ink as they wanted. Most of the cannons they made were shoddy. As long as they were loaded with enough quantity, it was inevitable to explode the chamber. I don’t know whether to hit the enemy or blow yourself up.

The quality of the old antique cannons is actually pretty good. Needless to mention the cannons cast in the early Ming Dynasty, the officials of the Ministry of Works dared to be greedy? The Jinyiwei under Taizu and Chengzu's army were not vegetarians. Especially Taizu, they directly made the officials who were greedy for ink and silver for people to visit. Even the quality of the cuckoos cast during the Yuan Shun Emperor was excellent. The Mongols were still very strict in supervising weapons, and the quality was not up to standard, so let's see if their heads were still there.

As for whether these old antiques will be caused by the age of time when they are launched? There is no need to worry about this. In real history, after the Taiping Army captured Yongzhou, a batch of artillery cast by Wu Sangui during the rebellion was found. Didn’t those old artillery play a major role in the hands of the Taiping Army?

Compared with the new cannons of the later new cannons, the disadvantage is that they are insufficient in power and not far enough in the range. However, if they are replaced with shotguns and fired at close range, the effect will not be inferior to the new cannons.

More than 200 old artillery pieces sprayed out shotguns at the same time, forming an airtight barrage within a width of one hundred feet and fifty steps. The Guanning cavalry, blocked behind the wire, flew everywhere, spewing out a mass of blood mist, and large clusters of blood mist sprayed into the air, and the fountain condensed into blood sprayed, and another blood rain mixed with flesh fell.

After the smoke of gunfire dissipated, there were only a few Guanning cavalry who could still stand. Most of the more than 600 Guanning cavalry fell in pools of blood, and only a few people were left to stand up.

Yang Feng fell to the ground. He had not yet died, but he was not far from his breath. A pebble hit his abdomen, his entire abdomen was beaten to pieces, and his intestines were flowing to the ground. An iron bead as big as a Lumi Gun hit his cheek. Half of his face was rotten. One side of his eyeball fell to the ground, and only a blurred flesh and blood remained in his eye sockets.

Blood was constantly spraying out of his mouth. Yang Feng, who was struggling in a pool of blood, only heard a "bang bang" sound of musket shooting. It was the Lumi gun and turtledove gun in the hands of the Jinyi New Army. They were harvesting the remaining Guanning Army cavalry.

There were still more than 100 Guanning cavalry who had lost their war horses in advance and luckily did not enter this killing field. If they lost their war horses, they could not rush through the firepower net composed of Shunjun artillery. They could only give up their attacks and turned around and ran back on foot. But at this time, Shunjun cavalry came out like a whirlwind and quickly devoured the more than 100 Guanning soldiers.

After a while, the battlefield returned to peace. The thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry who left the city to destroy artillery were wiped out, but they did not even hurt the hair of a Shun Army gunner. The only function they played was to use their bodies to capture Shun Army's artillery shells.

Yang Kun, who was standing on the top of the city to watch the battle, felt distressed and the corners of his mouth twitched. These cavalry were his most elite backbone, and there were nearly a hundred of his elite servants. Those servants were ate the empty salary of countless infantry soldiers, and they deducted the salary of countless infantry soldiers to feed them. But who knew that the entire army was wiped out and died without any value at all. They were like a group of dogs and were shot in front of the formation, without even a single hair from their opponents.

Zhao Peng felt a little uncomfortable when he saw these Guanning Army veterans who had been fighting with the Qing Dynasty for many years being killed in front of his formation. He personally fired dozens of people. But when he thought that these Guanning Army would transform into the elite Han Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty in the near future, Zhao Peng felt relieved. This was to eliminate these traitors in advance.

After the entire cavalry of Yang Kun's army was wiped out, less than 5,000 infantry remained completely lost their fighting spirit, but they also knew that their two legs could not run through the four legs of the Shun Army cavalry. Once the infantry formation was in chaos, the cavalry could slaughter the infantry one-sidedly. Therefore, these Guanning Army infantry arranged their formations and slowly retreated towards the city gate step by step.

At Li Guo's order, the Shun Army cavalry flew around and cut off the retreat of the Guanning Army infantry. However, facing the forest-like spear formation, the Shun Army cavalry did not dare to rashly attack the Guanning Army infantry, and could only circle around the Guanning Army infantry formation from afar.

Zhao Peng made a quick decision and ordered: "Attack the Guanning Army's infantry formation and fire!"

Seventy-eight artillery aimed at the formation of the Guanning Army infantry, and the muzzles were spewed out of flames. The overwhelming shells fell into the formation of the Guanning Army infantry like hail. From time to time, the Guanning Army infantry formed a pair of them. Each shell hit the crowd, and a large number of Guanning Army infantry were killed and injured.

He could only stand upright and get shots with shells, but he had no ability to fight back. The Guanning Army infantry watched his companions fall down one by one, but he was powerless, and he didn't know if the next shell would hit him. Such shelling quickly completely collapsed the formation of the Guanning Army infantry. With a scream, the Guanning Army infantry gave up their neat formation and turned around and ran away.

Seeing this, Li Guo was overjoyed, pulled out the Yanling sword and pointed forward, shouting: "Kill!"

The three thousand Shun army cavalry formed a dense charge formation, like a steel cavalry wall pressing up to the defeated Guanning army infantry formation. This is the three wall tactic. After the three wall cavalry rushed past, the ground was filled with incomplete corpses of Guanning army and fragments of various weapons. Although the Guanning army at the top of the city fired bombardment, and some of the Guanning army's infantry turned around and counterattacked with spears, the casualties they caused to the Shun army cavalry were minimal. Except for less than a thousand people who left the Guanning army, the remaining more than two thousand were killed, and the remaining more than two thousand people knelt on the ground and surrendered.

"General, I have no guards in the Qixing Village, and I should retreat." Leng Yundeng advised.

"We still need to persist, and strive for a long time to make the generals repair Xiluo City and use cannons to set up Xiluo City to defend the thieves. The thieves' fire weapons are so sharp that there must be guidance from experts, and only the red and barbarian cannons can be defeated." Yang Kun refused to retreat. He wanted to buy more time for Wu Sangui to move all the red and barbarian cannons into Xiluo City, so that he could suppress the Shun Army cannons.

The Shun Army began a large-scale attack. The more than 2,000 Guanning Army infantry that had just been captured were immediately reorganized by the Shun Army into auxiliary soldiers, responsible for building siege ladders, trench bridges, chariots and other siege weapons. After a busy night, the Shun Army built siege weapons and used the supervision team to urge the auxiliary soldiers to push the chariots to fill the trench.

At this time, Yang Kun's troops were already seriously insufficient. The six thousand men under his command had just left the city to fight, and there were only less than one thousand soldiers left. The city could only rely on auxiliary soldiers and civilians to defend the city.
