Chapter 308 Shelling the Tartar Cavalry!

Chapter 308: Bombing the Tartar cavalry!

There were a total of ten cannons, lined up in a long row, quite imposing. The military uniforms of the Tiger Army soldiers were gray, but the cannons were white, which contrasted with each other and were particularly eye-catching. In fact, in order to make these cannons look particularly eye-catching, Zhang Zhun also specially ordered that they should be brushed with white lime outside the cannons. Therefore, even on the viewing platform, these cannons can be clearly seen.

The people on the viewing platform were already excited. Even those who watched the ceremony last time couldn't help but stand up. There were no cannons in the last military parade. This fully demonstrated that the Hu Ben Army was getting stronger and stronger. Since everyone stood up, Liu Rushi and Bai Snake had to stand up. Fortunately, their figures were relatively tall, and their vision would not be blocked by the people in front of them.

"Smack!"

Suddenly, someone subconsciously slapped.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

The infected people also applauded.

The applause became louder and louder, like waves of tides that continued to disperse.

The artillery team participated in the military parade, of course it was Zhang Zhun's order. Hearing this warm applause, Zhang Zhun nodded with satisfaction. What he wanted was this effect. He knew that the appearance of the ten cannons, which were the finale, would definitely cause a sensation in the audience.

As two commanders of the Artillery Association, Xu Ziwen and Liu Chenzi naturally had light on their faces and their blood was kept hot. The two walked at the front of the team, their waists straight, and their faces were a little stiff due to tension. In such an occasion, it was even more exciting than a real battle.

The ten flying dragon cannons they dragged are all the latest products of the craft workshop. The original ten cannons were all installed on the head of Aoshan City. However, if there were no accidents, the ten old cannons in the past would definitely not have the chance to use them. It is absolutely correct to describe artillery associations by greed for new things and being tired of the old. With these brand new flying dragon cannons, they would not have the original old cannons. The range of the old cannons is less than three miles. The range of the flying dragon cannons is four and a half miles. The difference is too far!

The appearance of the artillery platoon obviously caused a great sensation among the crowd. In addition to standing up, the crowd on the viewing platform also wanted to run to the front of the cannons, touch them with their own hands, and touch these powerful weapons of war. In order to see more clearly, the people around were also constantly rushing forward. The soldiers in charge of maintaining order spent a lot of effort to stop the crowd.

From the appearance, the flying dragon cannon is indeed much more powerful than the Hu Ben gun. Although the caliber of the flying dragon cannon is only 70 mm, in Zhang Zhun's opinion, it is only among the small cannons, but in the eyes of the people, it is quite large. How can ordinary people, even military households, have the opportunity to get close to these cannons? In their subconscious, the power of the cannons is very powerful.

In fact, as long as people with some military knowledge, they know that the power of cannons is much greater than that of the Huben gun. On the battlefield, one shot can knock down many enemies. No matter how strong the enemy's armor is, no matter how dense the enemy's team is, no matter how fierce the enemy is, no matter how fearless the enemy is, they are all scumbags in front of the cannons. In fact, even the most brutal Tartar cavalry dare not attack the Ming army's artillery head-on.

How did Nurhaci die?

Didn’t he be killed by the Ming army’s cannon?

After a shot, both Nurhaci and Huang Taiji were still cleaned up!

"Kill the Tartars with cannons!"

"Last time, I didn't shell Tatsuoshima, it's cheaper."

"Brother, you have no knowledge. Do you need to use cannons in Tianheng Island? It's too polite to praise the Tartars."

"Yes! The Tartars on Tianheng Island don't need to be dispatched! These cannons must be taken to Liaodong and teach the Tartars there a lesson, so that they should not be so arrogant!"

"Without cannons, the Hu Ben Army destroyed hundreds of Tartars! If there are cannons, how many Tartars have to be eliminated? Thousands? Tens of thousands? I want to sign up for the army! I want to go to Liaodong to kill Tartars! Don't rob me! I want to sign up to be a gunner!"

...

The increasingly excited voices of the crowd echoed constantly on the viewing stand.

After the ten cannons appeared, the entire viewing platform seemed to be boiling. Everyone tried every means to rush forward and pulled the distance between themselves and the cannon closer. In order to prevent anyone from falling from falling from the viewing platform, the armed forces army responsible for maintaining order had to take stricter control measures. After a while, the excited crowd gradually calmed down.

Feeling the excited expressions of people, Liu Rushi was quite moved. If she hadn't seen them with her own eyes, she wouldn't have known that there were so many artillery in Zhang Zhun's army! Even people who don't understand military at all know that cannons are definitely a powerful weapon to destroy the enemy! With a powerful army and a powerful firearm, in Liu Rushi's eyes, Zhang Zhun's image suddenly became taller.

Perhaps, Zhang Zhun can really completely eliminate Jianlu!

Jianlu in Liaodong has been plaguing the Ming Dynasty since the Battle of Sarhu at the end of the Wanli period. For more than ten years, the Ming army has lost many personnel and materials in Liaodong. The Ming army has always been defeated again and again, constantly losing its troops and land. Liaodong is simply a huge bottomless pit, constantly absorbing the manpower, material resources and financial resources of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no hope of filling it out.

Now, most of Liaodong has been lost, Fushun, Shenyang, Liaoyang, Haizhou Wei, Gaizhou Wei, Fuzhou Wei, Jinzhou Wei... countless towns have fallen into the hands of the Tatars. Last year, even the last base, Lushun, was lost. Countless Han people in Liaodong either became slaves of the Tatars or were cruelly killed by the Tatars. Only a very small number of people escaped and told the outside world about the cruelty of the Tatars.

Speaking of the Tartars, the members of the Fushe in Jiangnan were always passionate and fierce. They kept writing to the court, making suggestions, demanding officials who were not punished, and demanding that the court take effective measures to resist the Tartars' rampage and even regain Liaodong. However, the court never seemed to have made any progress in dealing with the Tartars. In the second year of Chongzhen, the Tartars invaded and plundered a large number of people. What is even more unbearable is that the Tartars actually besieged the capital. This was the third time since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the capital was besieged.

This year, the Tartars invaded again and also plundered a large number of population and livestock. The Ming army in Datong, Xuanfu, the capital and other places avoided fighting and allowed the Tartars to rag. In the face of the raging Tartar cavalry, the Ming army seemed to have no way to do it. The only thing they could do was to close the city gates tightly and then ignore the life and death outside. After the Tartars left satisfied, they shamelessly reported their merits and begged for rewards.

Sometimes, even Liu Rushi, a woman-like woman, felt that the Ming army was too incompetent and the court was too dark. The more she knew, the more she felt that the future was bleak. At present, the chief assistant Wen Tiren covered the sky with one hand and controlled the cabinet, unable to get along with the members of the Donglin Party, and also focused on suppressing the Fushe in Jiangnan. Fushe and the Donglin Party have close ties, with the purpose of influencing the decision-making of the cabinet, which made the struggle between the eunuch and the Donglin Party continue.

Emperor Chongzhen hoped to abolish the party dispute under his leadership, but in fact, he did not do it. In places he could not see, the struggle became more intense. Under the tremendous pressure of the Donglin Party, Wen Tiren had to vigorously appoint the original eunuch party members. The more he appointed the eunuch party, the stronger the counterattack of the Donglin Party. Even Chongzhen could not interfere with the struggle between the two huge interest groups.

"Look!"

"Ah! It's the Tartar cavalry!"

"Behind the thatched wall is the Tatar cavalry!"

"Not real! It's the Mud-killed Tartar cavalry, not real!"

Suddenly, there was another commotion in the crowd.

Liu Rushi hurriedly followed their eyes, his expression slightly stunned.

It turned out that in the open space west of the military camp, all the original thatched walls were demolished. Inside the thatched walls, there were dozens of Tartar cavalry. Well, to be precise, they were clay men dressed in Tartar cavalry outfits. Among these Tartar cavalry, there were many jars and jars, densely stacked together.

Liu Rushi counted carefully and found that there were about fifty people. The outfits of these Tartar cavalry were of course seized from Tianheng Island. Now, Zhang Zhun ordered the torso to be put on again. Although it was a bit rough, most of the people present could also recognize that those were models of Tartar cavalry.

"What should the Tartar cavalry do with mud?"

"I don't know, there must be a good show!"

"Look at how to deal with the Tartar cavalry!"

The crowd expressed their opinions in a verbal way.

At this time, some sharp-eyed people had accidentally seen that the soldiers from the Artillery Association were turning the gun of the flying dragon cannon. The targets of the gun were aimed at the Tartar cavalry.

"Kill the Tartars!"

"They want to shell the Tartars!"

"Wife, come and see, Zhang Zhun is going to bombard the Tartars!"

The crowd became even more excited.

What a spectacular scene to bombard the Tartars!

Although they were mud-clad Tartar cavalry, everyone had already regarded the Tartar cavalry as real. I wonder what the consequences would be after the artillery bombardment? It would be better that all of them died, and no one left!

"Recharge!"

Liu Chenzi shouted coldly.

The soldiers of the Artillery Association neatly stuffed bags of grape bullets into the barrel, and then loaded the corresponding explosives. The gunpowder pool was quickly closed, and the mechanism was pressed to fire.

"preparation!"

"put!"

Xu Ziwen waved his hand down.

The soldiers immediately ignited the fuse.

"Shit!"

The fuse burned quickly, making a sound of explosion.

Feeling the sound of the fuse burning, the entire viewing platform, the entire military camp, was quiet. Even the crying of the children stopped strangely at this time. The tranquility between the world was silent.

"Bangbangbangbang!"

"Bangbangbangbang!"

"Bangbangbangbang!"

Suddenly, a ball of fire continued to burst out, illuminating the surroundings in an instant. Then there was a deafening loud noise, as if thunder was exploding in my ears. Twelve cannons were fired almost at the same time!

The power of so many flying dragon cannons was extraordinary. The entire military camp seemed to have a slight shock, and everyone could clearly feel the shaking under their feet. Flashes of white smoke rose up. The scene was filled with the smell of rich gunpowder, and people couldn't help but cough.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The grape bombs fell like raindrops around the Tartar cavalry.

Almost all the jars and jars were smashed to pieces. When the jars and jars were broken, the sound made was very pleasant. The mud-knitted Tartar cavalry were even smashed to pieces. Many armors were penetrated by projectiles. At first glance, it was like a piece of Tartar cavalry was instantly swept to the ground. No one survived.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

In the crowd, there were bursts of exclamations.

It was not a single exclamation, but a continuous scream. It seemed that a single exclamation could not describe the shock in his heart. Only by constantly exclaiming can all release all the feelings in his heart. Many young people shouted hysterically and clapped their hands desperately.

Too violent!

Too mighty!

Too shocking!

Ten cannons bombarded, and all the clay sculptures of the 50-person Tartar cavalry were smashed to pieces. The jars and jars in the middle of the Tartar cavalry were also smashed to pieces. What a brilliant result! How powerful the cannons are! Unfortunately, these Tartar cavalry are all clay sculptures. How great would it be if they were really Tartar cavalry!

Even Liu Rushi couldn't help feeling excited, wishing he was really a man, and he would go to the battlefield to experience the heroic spirit of killing the Tartars. If these fierce cannons appeared in Liaodong and bombarded the Tartars' cavalry, what a spectacular scene would it be. With such a fierce weapon, why are you afraid of the Tartars?

"One more shot!"

"One more shot!"

"One more shot!"

Someone in the crowd screamed.

This slogan echoes the wishes of most people, and everyone yells.

As if I felt everyone's enthusiasm, the artillery began to reload the bullets. At the same time, the jars and jars and clay-shaped Tartar cavalry in the target area were all cleaned up. A carpenter started to move out a huge shelf and quickly installed it.

"pig!"

"Isn't this a pig?"

"Wow! Such a big pig!"

The crowd screamed again.

It turned out that the carpenter built a huge pig model in the target area.

"What should I do if a pig comes out?"

"Who knows what this pig means?"
