After Li Tan personally ignited and fired the gun, the other guns were fired successively, and bursts of continuous loud noise appeared on the battlefield, accompanied by the voice of "Wansheng" shouted by all the officers and men of the Han army.
In one day, the senior level of the residual forces of the Capricorn people was named by bronze guns twice in a row. It's hard to say how much they died and how much they were disabled. It's a fact that the Dragon guards guarding the city lost their command in an instant.
The shelling continued, and the riprap truck was moving forward slowly.
Although the training has been carried out all the time, the firing efficiency of the artillery that can operate the 120mm bronze gun is really not fast. After each bronze gun is fired, the bore must be cleaned, and then the ammunition bags and bullets will be refilled. The firing data also need to be recalibrated. It can only be fired three or four times in a quarter of an hour.
The enemy troops guarding the city, who had never seen the explosion of gunpowder weapons, were stunned.
It has to be said that the Dragon guards can still be praised as the most elite force in Shijie Zhao state. They lost their top commander and were frightened by weapons they had never seen. However, only a few ran away, and most people could stick to their posts.
"Run what!"
"Don't run around."
"Trapped in a lonely city, running can't live."
"Only by guarding can we live!"
In fact, those who escaped were soon punished by the Dharma, and the words shouted by officers at all levels were reasonable, so that the Dragon guards who were still frightened and fighting could still stay on the wall.
"Shoot an arrow!"
"All remote devices, launch!"
Bronze guns fired at intervals, and there would be a roar on the battlefield from time to time. In addition, there were too many people shouting, making the battlefield full of noise.
Shi Jie and Zhao Guoben have strong crossbows, but the number is not much. They also have bed crossbows, which are inherited from the state of Zhao, the Hun.
All kinds of arrows on the top of the city kept shooting outward, but at this time, even the nearest Han army was outside their range, so we can see how much panic it was.
The Garrison Army had to panic. From time to time, they would be hit by a bullet from three miles away. If it was a solid bullet, it would actually be regarded as a more powerful stone bullet, but the flower bullet was different.
The Han Army's Huahua bomb is not any kind of Chinese system. Liu Yan used to study western gunpowder weapons because of curiosity. For the French technician Henry Peck Hans was very curious about the improvement based on the original flowering bomb. He was very impressed when he went to find articles and videos. Therefore, the Han Army's flowering bomb is actually a kind of blasting bomb.
In the busy Han artillery, they have to launch flowering shells and solid shells for different operations. To launch a solid projectile, you only need to place a booster explosive package and fill the projectile. It is also necessary to place booster explosives at the bottom of the flowering bomb, but there is a wooden support at the bottom of the flowering bomb. The wooden support not only closes the gun bore, but also increases the firing stability of the shell and makes its hit rate higher.
The shell of the flowering bomb is consistent with the solid bomb, and the interior is hollow with explosives and iron beads. The fuse is not a fuse, but a wooden fuse. After the gun is fired, the explosion of booster explosive package not only provides the thrust of projectile launch, but also ignites the wooden fuse, so as to avoid the accident of early explosion.
Whether it is a blasting bomb or a flowering bomb, it actually has the same term name, that is, grenade. When this thing explodes, it can evaporate the surrounding, and the iron beads emitted from the blast can be swept. The person in the center of the explosion will certainly become a broken body, and the person swept by the iron beads can't look good.
Dragon guards can stand the bombardment of solid bullets, but they can't stand flowering bullets at all. There will be new dragon guards to fill the gap where the solid bomb sweeps, but no one is willing to get close to where the flowering bomb explodes.
It took two quarters of an hour? The heavy riprap trucks are about to enter the range of the enemy's long-range instruments. They stop at the edge of the enemy's range and are waiting for the strong crossbow soldiers to organize an arrow array to suppress them.
Of course, the range of the riprap truck is not as far as the powerful crossbow. Only 30 bronze guns are firing. The firing interval of the bronze guns is really longer. The wall section that can be suppressed is actually limited. As long as the defenders are not scared to collapse by themselves, they can't continue to advance slowly.
"There is still a foundation." Ran Min said that the Dragon Guard was not frightened to collapse by the bronze gun. He turned to Li Tan and said, "the king once said that guns need to be used intensively. It is best to concentrate more than 100 doors at a time to cover an area in order to show the power of guns."
The background of Liu Yan's remark was that some generals, including ran min and Xu zhengnei, proposed to divide up the existing bronze guns in order to compete for the command of bronze guns. Even if there were one or two under each person's command sequence, it was acceptable.
Whether it's Bronze guns or artillery, it must be enough to show power. Only one or two really don't play a big role. It can only be used as an alternative sniper gun. It must be said that the sniper gun can at least guarantee the accuracy. Even the modern electric control gun can't guarantee where to hit, let alone the bronze gun just appeared.
"Don't bombard the walls anymore?" Li Tan pointed to the gate: "we should concentrate on bombarding the gate."
Ran min took a look at the strong crossbow array that had formed an arrow array and moved forward, and then looked at the other arms close to the periphery. He nodded and said, "just so."
After the emergence of gunpowder, I don't know what the situation is. Anyway, the generals of Huaxia and Europa didn't seem to think they could be used for blasting. As a result, gunpowder was used in war, and cities still have walls.
After modern times, Europa no longer built any city walls. However, there were still battles in the east to rely on the city walls until World War II. Facts have also proved how fragile the city walls are in front of artillery, and the support that the city walls can play is very limited.
Ran min was also the first time to command the firearm force. His use of gunpowder only stayed on long-range firing. I really didn't expect that as long as a Death Squadron broke in with explosive bags, approached the city gate and ignited the explosive bags, it could destroy the city gate. Even digging a pit on the side of the city wall and hoarding enough explosive bags could destroy the city wall.
Any new thing needs time to understand. Only by understanding what it is, can we broaden our thinking and make that new thing more useful.
When the strong crossbow soldiers pushed into the range, bursts of commands roared from the mouth of the military officer. When the rapid bangs sounded, each arrow array fired a dense number of crossbows and arrows.
The Dragon guards guarding the city wall did not withdraw under the bombardment of bronze guns. When they saw the arrow array manipulated by the Han Army, most of them withdrew from the city wall, leaving only a small number of people behind relying on the women's wall or shield.
The Dragon Guard saw the power of the bronze gun, but it was just because he saw it for the first time. Although he knew its terror and was afraid of it, he didn't understand the arrow array so thoroughly. It's not strange to be afraid of the arrow array covering more than the bronze gun.
It's like the era of muskets. White people invaded North America, but the Indians knew the power of muskets, but they were more afraid of the dense arrows launched by most people, but they could launch waves of impact on the white people armed with muskets.
The real intention of organizing an arrow array to cover the enemy's entrenched city wall is not to expect how many people to be killed, but to force the defenders to escape with dense arrow rain, so that the rest of your arms can approach the city wall in a safer environment.
When the riprap truck moves again, they will still encounter cold arrows in the process of propulsion. From time to time, soldiers will withdraw from the battle sequence with arrows. However, this is within the normal loss range, and there is no so-called 100% safety on the battlefield.
"It's the first time to launch this thing. I heard it's dangerous. It will explode if you're not careful?" Dou A is afraid that a loud noise can blow up people's bones. In particular, improper operation is likely to blow himself up: "pull the rope and fix it. Remember not to light the fuse in advance!"
The soldier holding the explosive bag nodded like a chicken, and the other soldier holding the torch even shook his hand.
Because it is necessary to launch explosive packages, the disposal of riprap trucks is farther away from each other than usual, and even the storage place of explosive packages that need to be launched is arranged far away. I'm really afraid that an operation group will kill itself accidentally and harm the rest of the people.
After receiving the launch command, the mechanical friction sound is that the explosive package is thrown out.
The explosive packages thrown out are tumbling in mid air, and the fuses on the side feet ignite the stars. Some explode before landing, some fall on the ground and are detonated after a while, and even there are explosive packages without explosion.
Ran min listened to the frequent explosions in his ears, and then looked at the light flashing over the city wall. After the light, there was a burst of smoke rising in the air. He boasted to Li Tan: "Rui is the infantry organized by Xianbei barbarians who didn't go to Yandi battlefield. They have been blown up many times."
"The infantry were bombed to death. I believe it." Li Tan said slightly disgusted: "the cavalry's horses will run around when they hear the sound, and the explosives will run with them when they are defeated?"
Ran min was in a very good mood. He didn't mind being dumped many times. People who didn't know thought he had robbed the position of the leader of Li tan. However, he really didn't care because he was in a good mood. There was no guilt at all.
The launching of riprap truck is a kind of projectile trajectory. Some fall at the foot of the city wall, some fall above the city wall, and some are directly thrown into the city. The different landing points can be regarded as blood mold for the Dragon guards hiding behind the city wall. They hid according to the old concept. When the explosive bag fell, no one knew what it was. The people nearby picked it up and looked curiously before they got up. Then they finished with the surrounding paoze before they were ignorant and didn't react.
There was really an explosive bag falling in the dense crowd. After the explosion, the people in the center were evaporated and left nothing. When a lot of flesh and blood flew, the people in the periphery were pushed out by a huge force, that is, the Han Army outside the city was blocked by the city wall.
There are only 30 bronze guns, each of which can be fired four times at most in a quarter of an hour. Although it can frighten the defenders, it is not very dense, but it plays a more psychological deterrent role.
As many as 500 riprap trucks have been put into use, and there are 300 in the main wall section. The interval between each riprap is about 100 breaths, which shows how dense the density should be.
Dense arrows can make the enemy suffer heavy losses and collapse at the same time. In fact, not many people will be shot to death with armor.
Once the explosive bags are dense, it is another matter. The explosive bags are fired from the riprap truck. A quarter of an hour later, the city wall of the palace city is no longer in shape. People outside the city can't see what's going on in the city. It's just like falling into a piece of smoke.
The bronze gun had been adjusting the firing data just now. After the command was issued, ran min opened fire. He was stunned when he saw a riprap truck falling apart and the wooden structure flying around.
The scattered riprap truck was in the trajectory of the bronze gun firing boundary. Fortunately, it hit a solid bullet, otherwise it wouldn't just sweep the wood.
The knowledge of shooting range, including trajectory, could not be understood by the Han army. Even in modern times, without specialized knowledge, the soldiers in front will still be shot and killed when they run into the firing trajectory of their own machine gun. Artillery with a long range, because they don't know that there are their own people in that area, it happens from time to time when they enter the network era.
Just because he didn't know what the situation was, ran min was stunned for a little while, but he didn't order the artillery to stop shooting, and even didn't let the riprap truck in front move its position.
The reason why war is war is that it is a cold-blooded battlefield to kill as many enemy troops as possible, and even its own soldiers when necessary. Not to mention the bronze cannon sweeping, the two armies mixed together and ordered the arrow array to cover one attack. As long as it is conducive to the overall situation, there are really not too many examples of doing that.
Of course, the city gate was smashed by bronze artillery, and the artillery team stopped shooting when the target was reached. Before that, three stone throwing carts were destroyed by them. The deaths and injuries of the three riprap truck groups will only be attributed to accidents, and the gun groups operating bronze guns will not be investigated at all.
The barrier gate was gone, and any long-range attack weapons listened. The Han cavalry cruising far away received instructions to charge into the city, and the subsequent infantry also began to trot forward.
When you are far away, you can smell the strong smell of gunsmoke. You can see the city walls that have been bombed out of shape, and broken bodies and limbs can be seen everywhere.
The Han cavalry who first entered the city were prepared for a fierce battle. After entering the city, they saw a picture like Shura field.
The ground was covered with residual corpses. Too much blood gathered and flowed to the low-lying place to become a blood beach. The dead died. The disabled were wailing and groaning, and some undead had strange actions.
The explosion will make a loud noise, the eardrums will be cracked when they are close, and those who are deaf will either run meaninglessly or sit in a daze.
Many people were scared crazy. The Han Army entering the city did not encounter resistance at all
