Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy Seven: Beating the Reservoir Dogs(1/2)
Rumble... Rumble...
Countless meteors fell in the sky.
The howitzer's fragments flew around, and the shell fell very quickly, so it was impossible to avoid it.
At this time, for most people, no place in the military town is safe.
The power of howitzers is much stronger than that of the unconscienced cannon.
If the cannon without conscience is Emperor Aoqi, then the cannon is Emperor Aoqi, his ancestor Emperor Taizu Gao.
Not to be spoken the same.
Countless shells, like meteors falling.
The shell exploded, and then the people around him fell down first, and the roar pierced the eardrums and the fire began to burn.
After artillery officially began to appear, most wars were caused by artillery.
And this kind of terrifying thing is simply not a weapon of dimension for the Jiangnan military horses that are eating at this moment.
The battalions were still asleep at this time, and at this time... countless soldiers were awakened, and some of them were bombed into the sky without even consciousness.
There are broken arms and limbs everywhere, all kinds of flesh and blood, and houses are burning everywhere.
The surviving official army was shocked and they had already seen chaos everywhere in the darkness, and there were thick smoke and fire everywhere.
The whistling cannon sounded like a death talisman.
Soon, there were pits here, and the craters left by the shells caused many people to fall.
There was no one worrying about many corpses, and the wounded soldiers on the ground were everywhere.
At this time, the officials and soldiers had not experienced such a terrible artillery attack, let alone any experience, and could only run around like headless flies.
But this... just brings extremely favorable conditions to the killing of artillery fire.
If you look from a distance, the military town is already in a sea of fire, and countless fleeting flashes of artillery fire are like the lightning in the sky.
Although Emperor Apocalypse knew that this thing cost a lot of money and was definitely more powerful than a no-conscience cannon, when the cannon really showed its power, he was still shocked.
It was so terrible that he bombed the enemy even when it was almost beyond his sight range. At this time, he could not see a shadow of an enemy.
He said excitedly: "Blast me, I will take this city before dawn."
His eyes were a little red.
To be honest, it is really exciting to be in this environment.
The coverage of this artillery fire shows the unnatural power.
But such power is in my own hands.
Unfortunately, no one heard his words, because the rumbling sound of cannons suppressed all the noise.
The various cannon groups are in the dark, using lanterns as signals for contact.
The artillery loaded shells and fired.
Then, continue to load.
The artillery observers of each artillery team still held telescopes and watches to observe, constantly working on their own on paper.
This kind of shelling in actual combat scenarios is the best way for observers to record data and adjust the firing table.
On the other hand, the teaching teams have begun to prepare for the siege.
The first teaching team members were the pioneers, followed by the teaching teams entering the city in sequence.
Everyone put on heavy coats.
This coat is thick and can be used as a cotton armor in a certain way, in addition to keeping warm.
Even compared with the Mian armor, which has uneven quality in the Ming Dynasty's official army, the defensive effect of the military coat is first-class.
Load all the bullets, check the bayonets, leg grooming, boots, and explosive packs for special blasting, and even kettles used to replenish moisture during the attack process to ensure that the dry food for a meal is all ready.
Everyone didn't say anything, just waited for the orders in silence.
On the other side, artillery fire was still continuous, and bombing sounds were one after another!
In the military town.
The official army was in chaos.
Tan Maoxun on the city wall was already pale. He looked at all this in despair. Unexpectedly, the essence of guarding Nan Zhili completely collapsed in just a moment.
Under the rumbling sound of cannons and in the devastation, he had lost contact with the battalions. After several shells were hit by the city wall, half of it had collapsed.
With the help of his personal guards, he hurried down the city tower, but where is this still a pure land? There are fewer and fewer servants around him. Some have already escaped alone, while others have been harvested directly by splashing shrapnel.
He stumbled through because the ground was covered with ruins and gravel after shelling, and corpses everywhere.
The most terrifying thing was that there were still many shells in the sky, passing by the sky above his head.
In front, explosion flames rose one by one.
Tan Maoxun has discovered that all the combat experience he had learned from his ancestors is now a complete joke.
Because he didn't even know what to do if he encountered this situation.
He desperately headed towards a corner tower in the city wall, which was relatively intact and seemed to have no shells dropped.
The personal soldiers and servants also followed him and ran towards him.
At this time, someone yelled hysterically: "General Tan, General Tan."
In the darkness, Tan Maoxun only heard this faint sound, so he subconsciously looked around in panic, but at the moment of an explosion, the ground suddenly lit up. He realized that a few scholars were stumbled towards him not far away.
The leader was Wang Shimin. Wang Shimin cried and shouted: "Die, die... They are all dead. A cannonball, and all my senior brothers are gone... General Tan, General Tan... Save me, save me..."
He rushed up, covered in blood.
Behind him were several scholars who seemed to be injured.
Now they have long lost their heroic spirit and gentleness.
But Tan Maoxun had a cold face and threw him away directly, and said sternly without hesitation: "Go away, don't get me into trouble."
As soon as this statement came out, Wang Shimin was greatly shocked.
He never expected that Tan Maoxun turned against him just as he said he was about to turn against him.
He couldn't help but shout, "Why is General Tan like this? As a general, when you are in war, you are as frustrated as a dog. Are you not afraid of returning to Nanjing City... Is anyone pursuing it?"
Tan Maoxun was already in a mess.
In the past, he was still patient with Wang Shimin and others.
But at this moment, after hearing Wang Shimin's words, he felt extremely funny and said without thinking: "Today... will there be people from Nanjing City?"
While speaking, I saw another explosion in the distance.
A wave of heat came, and everyone was almost blown down by the heat wave. Wang Shimin felt something seemed to be on his face. He was busy wiping his face, but he had already found that the palm of his hand was full of blood, and the air wave was mixed with blood.
His eyes suddenly widened, he wailed, and immediately shouted and cursed in anger: "Tan Maoxun...Tan Maoxun..."
But Tan Maoxun had no idea and took the few remaining servants toward the darkness.
Wang Shimin suddenly fell to the ground in fear.
What happened in front of him was obviously far beyond his cognition.
He has never seen anything like this in the book.
Fires were everywhere in the military town.
Everything you see is rubble.
At this moment... the sound of cannon finally stopped.
However... the officers and soldiers in the city were already in chaos, and the casualties were too great. A bombardment instantly caused the officials and soldiers to collapse directly.
After the collapse, the military officers and soldiers had no boundaries, and everyone just wanted to escape.
But how easy is it to escape in this place?
Just at this moment...
A rushing whistle sounded outside the city.
After the whistle continued.
The other teaching teams who were slowly advancing outside the city were preparing to siege the city, and the officers took off the tampering slap on their ears as the cannons stopped.
Then, the rest of them took tampons one after another.
Li Dingguo, the brigade officer of the vanguard, was the first to come out, so the vanguard students moved closer to the place.
Li Dingguo seemed to have not grown much. Although he was young, he had a low qualification among students. He was brave in every battle and ranked among the top in various subjects in the military academy. He has made countless contributions over the years.
After moving to this position step by step, even if his face is slightly immature, it is still convincing.
At this time, Li Dingguo looked cold and shouted: "The orders of Your Majesty and his mentor have been issued. The First Teaching Team is the main attacker, and our First Team is responsible for the task of boarding first. The city is already in chaos. What we have to do is to enter the two gaps in the southeast city wall, guard the passages to and from the military town, kill the stubborn enemy, and blasting team... They are responsible for exaggerating the No. 1 gap and preparing for the brothers teaching teams who will attack the city in the future."
To be continued...
