Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

After each shot was fired, the artilleryman immediately wrapped the rag with a long pole, soaked it in water, and stabbed it into the barrel.

The water made a "呲味" sound inside, was quickly vaporized by the high temperature, and then passed the signal to the partner with gestures.

The people next to him immediately began to load gunpowder and broken iron.

In fact, Chen Gui said in front of Zhao Guan's family that the fifth-generation artillery had a range of more than two miles, which was suspected of being a coincidence.

There is no doubt that the shooting range exceeds two miles, but not every one can exceed two miles, and beyond two miles, the lethality is already very weak.

But what Chen Gui said would not only make the Zhao family happy, but also give the princes confidence.

In fact, this fifth-generation artillery is indeed powerful enough, and being able to hit this range is already the limit of gunpowder in this era.

Of course, it wasn't just the range of the artillery that gave Jin Wushu's kidnapper a headache, but more importantly, its quantity.

All fear stems from lack of firepower.

The dense fragments of iron, like rows of waves, quickly hit the Kidnapper who was advancing again.

As before, hundreds of thousands of cavalrymen once again fell off their horses.

This scene is very similar to the popular queuing and shooting in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

It's just that the musket has become a cannon, and the shells of the cannon are broken iron.

Moreover, the attack surface of this kind of artillery is wider than that of the muskets shot in line.

The Kidnapper immediately began to turn around. They believed that the Song Army's artillery could not be distributed at every position on the flank, and they only needed to adjust the direction and attack point.

They did so, but when they approached again, the Song Army's artillery struck again.

Going back and forth like this, the kidnappers on both wings cut across all the way, and they all encountered the impact of the Song army's artillery.

Even the officer who kidnapped the horse couldn't help but scolded: "Mother Zhi is a thief! How many cannons Song Dog has!"

Finally, after many trials, the kidnapper was forced to give up the attack.

When the news was sent back to Jin Wushu, he didn't say much, but ordered the striker to garrison the position, and temporarily made a truce.

While Wushu sent scouts to spy on the number of Song people's artillery, he began to secretly send additional infantry outside the east city.

By the afternoon, a considerable number of Jin Army infantry had arrived in Dongcheng, and a considerable number of them were logistically signed.

Under the officer's iron-blooded military order, the Jin people began to advance on a large scale, digging mounds and filling trenches.

"Your Majesty, the golden men have appeared outside the gate of the east city. It is indeed as Your Majesty said, they are filling the trench."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, Zhang Xianggong expected this, not me."

Zhang Jun said: "Your Majesty has already figured it out."

"Are the artillery ready?"

"There are two hundred gates outside the east city."

"A little less." Zhao Ning thought, "I remember that the number of artillery is very abundant."

"After Jin Wushu is exhausted outside the east city, he will send people to the south gate again, so I think about it and keep it for later use."

Zhao Ning raised his head and looked at the sky, and said, "There's no need to stay, all of them will be used at the east gate, and Jin Wushu's idea of ​​attacking the south gate may have to wait until night."

"Besides, he really dared to attack the Nancheng Gate. That's exactly what I want to see. He dared to divide the army into three sides. I couldn't wish for it! If there is no accident, Yue Fei will arrive tomorrow. The door is filled, so what?"

Having said that, Zhao Ning rolled up his sleeves and began to drink tea happily.

The tense atmosphere in the morning was gone. Seeing that Zhao Guan's family was so calm and calm, the ministers were also relieved.

It turns out that battles can still be fought like this?

The main forces of the two armies have not really fought on the battlefield on a large scale, and the situation has begun to fall here.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Jin Wushu went from the North City Gate to the East City Gate to supervise the fortifications.

The Jin army filled the trenches on the ground layer by layer, and grabbed the horse-rejecting posts with iron hooks. Those strong soldiers, under the organization of the officers, dragged the horses.

"Your Highness."

"Can the Song Army take action in the city?" Wu Shu asked.

"Song Jun has no action yet."

Wu Shu nodded, looked forward, and said, "The people of Song Dynasty dug so many trenches by themselves, trying to block us, and now they are also blocking themselves."

Chapter 1456 Dynamite (Second Change)

The advancing speed of the Jinren was not uncomfortably fast. In two hours, more than a dozen trenches had been filled, the horse-repelling posts between the trenches were also pulled away, and the barbed wire was cleared away.

Seeing that it was almost evening, Jin Wushu immediately dispatched a group of infantry to push towards the city gate.

Accompanying these infantrymen were dozens of goose carts.

The goose cart was originally a sharp weapon for attacking the city. The goose cart has a very important purpose. It can be pushed, and a lot of soil is placed inside. When it is pushed near the moat, the soldiers inside can push the soil out.

Goose carts are more convenient for filling trenches.

The infantry of the Jin army pushed forward behind the goose cart, and the scouts also hid behind the goose cart. They got out from time to time and looked over, trying to see the layout of the Song army under the city.

Just when the group of goose carts advanced to a distance of three miles from the east city gate, the sound of artillery suddenly rang out.

In an instant, countless sharp iron balls hit the goose cart, making a crackling sound, and many shallow holes were punched in the front board of the goose cart.

Jin Jun in the car was startled, and Jin Jun behind the goose cart shouted: "The people of Song Dynasty used artillery!"

The soldiers in the goose cart were not injured, and the iron beads hadn't been able to pierce through the thick wood.

After experiencing a panic for a while, Jin Jun gradually stabilized and continued to move forward.

"Quickly, go over there, put these explosives one mile away, and pour in heavy kerosene." Zhang Jun hurriedly led the people out of the city gate, and he began to command before the battle.

The biggest advantage of the explosive weapon is that it is powerful, but the biggest shortcoming is that it can only explode at fixed points.

Fixed-point blasting makes it difficult to accurately strike moving enemies on the battlefield.

As long as the enemy moves a little faster, or the battle situation is a little hasty, there is no way to use explosives to deal with the enemy.

After all, the explosives of the Song people are different from those of later generations.

It has no fuse!It has no fuse!It has no fuse!

It must rely on the fuse, and the fuse must be ignited on the spot to explode. The fuse may be extinguished at any time, and this probability is still very high.

If you want to use explosives against the enemy, there are two situations.

One is to lead the enemy to a fixed route. Chen Gui used this method in the Battle of Xia Xia. This is an extremely difficult task.

Second, in the current situation, the opponent's movement speed is very slow, and they can only keep moving forward on a fixed and determined route. There is no way to make a detour, let alone a quick retreat.

The forward of the Song Army took explosives and quickly walked towards the trench in front.

They passed through several trenches, placed explosives in fixed trenches, and began to pour fire oil.

After a simple operation, the troops at the front of the Jinren had been pushed to a distance of less than 200 meters from them.

"Your Highness, our army's advance is going smoothly. The artillery of the Song people has not been able to penetrate the three-layer plank of the goose cart for the time being."

Wu Shu fixed his eyes. Although he couldn't see the specific situation ahead, he was quite excited. He said loudly: "Okay! The artillery is ready, let the people of Song have a look. They have artillery, and we also have it!"

The setting sun hangs in the western sky, dyeing the earth red.

A large group of Jin troops, outside the east city, kept approaching the city gate.

Seeing that it was only two miles away from the city wall and only one mile away from the Song army at the city gate, the blurred outlines of those Song troops could already be seen with the naked eye, and everything was going well with filling the trench.

"Those Song soldiers came over just now, it seems that they put something in the front trench?" Yelubo said to Gao Zhiwen.

Yelubo is Mouk, a centurion. He is an elite infantry fighter. In fact, he is good at foot combat and charging. Often his soldiers and horses can form formations without chaos, giving full play to the power of teamwork.

Gao Zhiwen is Meng An, the commander of a thousand commanders. He is from Bohai and has many years of combat experience.

They have encountered this kind of trench filling and pulling horses countless times before, and it is not new to them at all.

"Is it barbed wire?" Gao Zhiwen asked, "Send scouts to check."

"The Song army's artillery is too fierce, and now the scouts have no way to reconnaissance."

Gao Zhiwen had no idea, Yelubo said: "It's all pushed here, what else can the Song people do, they can't increase the amount of artillery, although some goose carts were blown to pieces, but the push has been done. It's the general trend, and when we enter half a mile, our artillery will be able to fight back!"

When Yelubo said this, Gao Zhiwen dispelled his worries and stopped thinking about it.

Soon, Song Jun's artillery stopped.

"Stopped?"

"The Song people's artillery stopped?"

Everyone was in a daze for a while, after experiencing the uninterrupted artillery bombardment just now, a group of people in the Jin army had already died, and even the sturdy goose cart was also smashed to pieces.

Now it finally stops.

The messenger excitedly turned his horse's head and was about to report the good news to Wu Shu.

"The Song people have run out of gunpowder!"

The orderly rushed over and shouted loudly.

Wu Shu was overjoyed when he heard the words, but his expression remained the same, finally it was used up!

Emperor Dog, I thought you had as much gunpowder as the water in the Yellow River!

At this moment, the Song army outside the city gate suddenly began to use the eight-ox crossbow.

Countless dense rockets suddenly appeared in the sky, and after those rockets passed by, they fell towards the Jin army.

"It's a rocket!"

The Jin people immediately understood that the Song army was planning to shoot the goose carts with rockets and burn the wooden goose carts.

This step was also expected by Jin Jun.

But the distance on the battlefield has been shortened so close, the golden man no longer cares.

But the next moment, the new tactics once again cost the Jinren a painful price.

I saw that the dense rockets fell into the ditch in that area, and the fire oil near the ditch was immediately ignited, and quickly spread to the ditch.

Boom boom boom...

The front row of the golden army that had advanced in front of the trench suddenly exploded under their feet.

Those golden soldiers who were just about to bury the trenches with soil were immediately lifted up by the shock wave, which was accompanied by countless sharp pieces of iron, which made their faces bloody and bloody.

And the neck was cut open, and a large amount of blood gushed out wildly.

What's even more frightening is that the fire spread rapidly in and around the trench, and the explosion also spread with it.

Many people died tragically on the spot before they could even scream.

The soil was also lifted.

The power of black powder is not great, but it can't hold a large amount!

Jin Wushu's heart trembled, and he asked: "What happened?"

But no one answered his question.

Goodbye to the front, after a series of explosions sounded, the fire oil near the trench was still burning, igniting the goose carts beside the trench.

Countless golden troops fled from inside.

"Cannon! Cannon!" Zhang Jun shouted.

Losing the cover of the goose cart, Jin Jun panicked.

An officer shouted loudly: "Attack!"

But before the words were finished, Song Jun's spray came again, and the effect was extremely good.

Chapter 1457 Breaking the game is imminent (first update)

Jin Jun never expected that Song Jun still had gunpowder.

And the artillery showed no tendency to stop.

At first, the infantry of the Jin Army could persist in resisting and pushed forward with difficulty. Even the artillery battalion of the Jin Army made full preparations and planned to fight back with artillery. After many people died, the Jin Army discovered in despair that their The artillery range could not reach the Song army camp at all.

Therefore, this siege battle ended with the failure of the Jin army before dark.

After night fell, the angry Jin Wushu went into a rage in the tent.
