Chapter 273 Defeat Yan Ding Cao Ding
The crossbowman shot and killed the stubborn Cao Ding and Yan Ding with precise point shooting; the self-produced musketeers behind him also followed up and divided them into three rows to shoot at the city head in turn.
The effective range of the self-produced musketman is closer than that of a strong crossbow and is slower to load, but it is powerful. The armor-breaking ability of the firearm is far greater than that of the crossbow, and its lethality is much stronger than that of the crossbow. Even if he is shot by a strong crossbow, he may not lose his combat power. However, if he is hit by a self-produced musket, he will be useless even if he is hit by a self-produced musket. In this era, people who are hit by a lead bullet do not have advanced technology to treat, and can take out the projectiles and leave the lead bullet in the body, just waiting for the lead poison to die. There is another advantage of the firearm, which is that it does not waste any effort. Although the crossbow machine is more labor-intensive than the bow and arrow, a crossbowman is exhausted and it is difficult to pull the bow string again, but the firearm does not have this problem.
The reloading speed of self-generated muskets is much faster than that of a bird gun. It organizes three-stage shooting and can shoot continuously. There is almost no fire interval. However, the reloading of the muskets is slow, and there is still a large interval between the three-stage shooting. It requires five-stage shooting or even seven-stage shooting to maintain the sustainability of the fire.
The thousand crossbowmen in front almost cleaned up the archers and musketeers on the city. When the five hundred elite factory guards came up, there were no rebels' long-range soldiers on the city. The rebel soldiers on the city who used wolf teeth pats, yaksha slaughters, gray bottles and turbulent oil tanks and other defending weapons became the living targets of self-generated musketeers.
The sound of guns continued, and the rebels who were fighting stubbornly on the city were spraying blood mists on their bodies one after another, and they screamed and fell down.
The bandit army was simply untenable at the top of the city. The auxiliary soldiers of Liaoyang New Town took this opportunity to push two wheelbarrows filled with gunpowder boxes to approach the city. The auxiliary soldiers picked up iron chisels, hoes, and shovels, dug in the earth city, dug two holes, stuffed the gunpowder box into the hole, ignited the fuse and immediately retreated to a safe range.
About a minute later, two loud noises came from the Tucheng City, and two flames splashed out from the Tucheng City, and thick smoke rose up. A large section of Tucheng City was blown up, forming a slope.
"Kill!" Zhou Yuji roared, led the 300-biting card players and 700-spike soldiers to rush up to the blasted slope, and soon entered the city.
Under the pressure of Li Jiaxing and Li Jiaguo's servants, the mobs in the city gritted their teeth to block the Liaoyang army. With the advantage of large numbers, these mobs actually blocked the Liaoyang army, making it difficult for Zhou Yuji and the others to move forward. However, Zhou Yuji and the others' elite hand-to-hand combat soldiers did not suffer any casualties. The opponents who came up were occasionally overturned by long spears, their heads were cut off by Miaodao, and many were killed.
The number of soldiers was too large. The people in front blocked the view of the people behind. The people behind were pushed forward by the Li family's diary. They could not see clearly the situation ahead at all. They were pushed forward by the people behind. When they arrived, they found that the people in front were falling down constantly. These guys turned around and wanted to run away, but were blocked by the people behind and could not retreat. They could only bite the bullet and slash forward, and then fell one by one under the swords and guns of the Liaoyang Army.
In a small gap, those behind cannot see the situation ahead. Li Jiaxing and Li Jiaguo can still use the supervision team to push the mob forward, but once the five hundred elite factory guards come up, the situation will immediately become different.
Five hundred elite factory guards who used self-generated muskets and grenades came up and started firing from thirty steps away.
"Boom boom boom boom" A row of guns sounded, and blood mist rose from the rebels thirty steps ahead, and a large pile of them fell down. Then the second row of self-generated musketeers stepped forward and pointed the rebels crowds in front and pulled the trigger. Another row of deafening guns sounded, and the crowds in front fell down again; then the third row walked to the front and pulled the trigger, and the rebels fell down again.
The self-generated musketeer advanced step by step in the shooting, and the rebels in front soon turned into a hill of corpses.
Only twenty steps were left. With Kong Youde, the captain of the captain of the Zisheng Musketeer, the five hundred Zisheng Musketeers took out the wooden handle grenades from their arms, unscrewed the safety cover, pulled the strings, and saw white smoke coming out of the tail of the grenade. They put the grenade in their hands for three seconds, and immediately threw it into the rebels.
"What?" The rebels were puzzled when they saw the iron lumps flying over.
Most people subconsciously twist their heads to avoid the iron bumps that hit the head. Some people didn't have time to dodge and smashed them on their heads, shaking them to their heads and bleeding.
"What is this?" A rebel soldier picked up a grenade and saw that there was still smoke from the tail of the iron lump. He curiously took the iron lump to his eyes and wanted to look carefully. At this moment, there was a loud "boom", and the grenade in the hand of the rebel soldier exploded, because the grenade was in front of him, smashing his head.
"Boom boom boom" grenades exploded one after another, exploded with balls of white smoke, fragments flying everywhere, iron beads splashing, and the rebels were blown into a pool of blood.
In fact, most people were not killed by the bomb. Except for a few rebel soldiers who were hit by shrapnel, most of them had shrapnel on their bodies, screaming and falling down, and struggling in pain in pools of blood. In comparison, those who were bombed on the spot were lucky. They lost consciousness and could not feel pain at all. And those who were injured and fell, shrapnel pierced into their bodies and limbs, and fell in pools of blood in pain. Those who were waiting for them were still dead. In this era, they were injured by firearms and were completely helpless.
Although the shrapnel of the grenade is cast iron and is not as toxic as lead bullets, irregular cast iron fragments pierce into the body, and the injured will continue to bleed, which will eventually cause the wound to become inflamed and die in pain.
The self-generated muskets and grenades of five hundred elite factory guards completely collapsed the morale of the rebels.
"I can't beat it!"
"The Eagle Claw Sun's firearm is so powerful!"
"They also have a kind of thunder falling from the sky, which hit the crowd and exploded a large area in an instant!"
"Go away!"
The rebels turned around and ran away. At this time, the people behind could no longer stop them, because the people behind saw the tragic situation in front of them, and they all turned around and ran away. More than 20,000 people collapsed in an instant, and everyone turned around and ran back desperately, but ended up colliding with the supervision team composed of Li Jiajiadi behind.
No matter how the supervisory team cut the guns and stabbed the more than 20,000 defeated soldiers, they could not stop the footsteps of more than 20,000 defeated soldiers. Soon the supervisory teams were surrounded by the defeated defeated soldiers and retreated like a tide.
"Kill!" Man Gui roared and led five hundred cavalry to chase and kill them.
Five hundred cavalry drove nearly 20,000 defeated soldiers like sheep, driving them to another team of rebels. As a result, the formations of the two teams of rebels collided, and the formations were deformed, crowded together, trampled on each other, and countless casualties were injured. The cavalry drove the two teams of rebels who were crowded together to the gate of Tucheng, drove them out of the city, and drove them into the river.
Li Jiaxing and Li Jiaguo never dreamed that their 100,000 troops would be defeated so quickly! This was due to the defense of the barracks and Tucheng, and there were four fortresses on four corners. They were defeated in such a battle to defend the city, but they were still defeated in a crushing battle.
Caoding and salt ding had completely lost their will to resist, and most of them were too lazy to run away. Anyway, the cavalry with two legs could not run away with four legs, so they knelt on the ground and surrendered. Only a few people took advantage of the chaos to escape from Tucheng, took off their war suits, took off their hats, turned into civilians, and fled into nearby villages to hide.
