Chapter 34 The Battle of Kaiyuan City (1)

Baoyi Aha, who was pushing the cart, approached the city, and the Ming army musketeers on the top of the city opened fire. For a moment, the turtledove guns, bird guns, tiger squat cannons and other firearms made roars. More than a thousand bird guns, more than a hundred turtledove guns, fifty tiger squat cannons fired volleys, and the Franchise sub-guns were replaced with shotguns to shoot at close range targets.

For a moment, the city was bombing like rain, and the water of the moat seemed to boil, and countless splashes splashed. The dense projectiles were scattered into the crowd of people, and the coats that were filling the moat with mabao fell one by one. Many of the coats and men fell into the moat, splashing huge splashes.

The Korqin Cavalry and Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers behind did not feel any distress at all about the casualties of the coat. These lowly slaves were lucky to be able to fill the trenches for our Great Jin Kingdom! In the eyes of the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers, these coats were talking animals.

On the contrary, Malin felt a little unbearable, and he whispered: "Pity, they were originally from the Han people in Liaodong, but now they have sacrificed their lives for no reason!"

But it would be impossible not to fight. If those Baoyun rushed to the top of the city, the heavy infantry of the Jianzhou Jurchens behind him would also follow him. With the pitiful combat power of the Ming army in the city, once they entered the melee, chopped vegetables, and they would not have any power to fight back. At this point, Malin dared not be ambiguous. He would not joke about the lives of his brothers under his command. Therefore, even if he couldn't bear it, he still ordered the defenders on the city to shoot round after round of projectiles.

But Gao Shixin's idea was different from that of Malin. He had no good feelings for these coats. Although those coats looked pitiful now, when the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, the coats that once looked pitiful were different. They never regarded themselves as Han people, but were arrogant Manchus! They treated Han people more cruelly than their masters! These coats were more loyal to our Qing Dynasty than Manchus.

Until the Qing Dynasty was destroyed for more than a hundred years, many descendants of Baoyi were still thinking about restoring the Qing Dynasty.

Let me give you another example. For example, a certain brick family called Beast who deserves to be beaten, his ancestor was Baoyi Aha. Because of his merits, he was carried into the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty and became the real bannerman. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, as a survivor of the Qing Dynasty, the grandfather of the Beast also went to the puppet Manchukuo to serve as the deputy director of the Ministry of Justice, and was an absolute traitor. After Japan's defeat, these Baoyi, who had held important positions in the puppet Manchukuo, changed themselves to the Han nationality in order to escape the punishment of justice, but deep down they were still thinking about restoring the Qing Dynasty.

Although the turtledove guns are small in number, they are extremely powerful. A projectile weighing one or two cents is shot out, just like a small cannonball, which can often penetrate the bodies of several coats and exhaust their kinetic energy. The tiger squat cannons and Francs shot at close range are even more powerful. Rows of shots are bombarded out, and a large area of ​​coats crowded in front of the moat fell down.

The turtledove gun and the tiger squat cannon had just been fired, and the loaded Franc machine roared again, and the shotgun pierced into the coated crowd, flesh and blood flew everywhere, blood splashed everywhere, and a large piece of coated fell down screaming.

The firearm is powerful and has the city wall barrier. The disadvantage of slow loading is also offset by the advantages of the city wall. However, the firearm has another fatal disadvantage, which is that it requires cooling time.

The Ming army's bird guns and turtledog guns could only fire five guns, so they had to cool down with water; although the Fran machine cannon was loaded quickly, they could only fire five guns at a time, so they had to cool down. When the cooling down, soldiers loaded sub-guns and tiger squat guns. They were almost the same. At most, they had to cool down after seven shots.

As for those three-eyed guns, bowl-mouth guns, and cub-mouth guns, the range is too close, with a range of only ten to twenty steps. If you use those firearms to shoot at the coated moat that is filling the moat, it can be said that there is almost no effect and you can only waste the projectiles.

It takes about ten minutes to cool down various firearms. During the cooling time of the firearms, the firepower of the defenders on the city was weaker, and the only long-range weapons that could be fired were the servants of officers at all levels and the bows and arrows in the hands of Gao Shixin and others.

The patrons under the city took advantage of this good opportunity to fill the trenches. Only by working harder can they get the appreciation of their master, and maybe they still have the chance to be promoted and have their own patrons.

In fact, there are also levels of coating. Haven’t you seen that Lord Fan Wencheng is also coating?

Gao Shixin naturally had no fond of these slaves who could be used as slaves. He also collected a batch of old antiques from Kaiyuan warehouse. He didn't know which era they were made. Now these crossbows are placed on the top of the city.

Just as the Baoyi Aha and his friends were working hard, they heard a roar on the top of the city: "Cum!"

Accompanied by the squeak of wood, dozens of huge crossbow arrows suddenly flew down from the city wall, and with the sound of the wind, they plunged into the coated crowd.

The crossbow arrows were like powerful javelins, pierced into the coated body, shot through it thoroughly, and then pierced into the second-place coated body, and then strung together the third-place coated body, like a string of human candied haws. Moreover, the kinetic energy of the crossbow arrows did not decrease, and they flew back with two corpses.

Each crossbow arrow shot out and pierced into the dense crowd, and it could take away three or four lives. The most powerful crossbow arrow shot through two coats in a row, and then stringed six coats into a string!

These old antique shootings make up for the firepower gap that appears in the firearm's cooling time.

Gao Shixin and the others did not stop. He pulled his bow again and again and kept shooting light arrows at the Korqin cavalry running outside the city. Arrows flew out one by one, and each arrow shot out, a Korqin cavalry screamed and fell off the horse.

After shooting more than a dozen arrows in succession with the Xiaoxiao bow, Gao Shixin found that the heavy infantry of the Jianzhou Jurchen behind the Later Jin army was approaching step by step. He put down the Xiaoxiao bow, took out the captured Jurchen Bayala bow, replaced it with the heavy arrow, and aimed at the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers in the distance. You must know that killing one Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers is more effective than killing five Korqin people.

Gao Shixin let go of his thumb, and a heavy armor-breaking arrow flew out, hitting the throat of a Jianzhou Jurchen soldier like lightning. The Jurchen soldier rolled on the ground, struggled to death for a few times, and stopped moving.

Immediately afterwards, the second heavy arrow flew out, and another Jianzhou Jurchen soldier was shot in the chest. The arrow shot through his two layers of armor. The guy screamed and fell down.

Accompanied by the sound of bowstrings, heavy armor-breaking arrows were shot continuously like bullets shot from semi-automatic rifles. Each arrow flew down from the top of the city and could take the life of a Jianzhou Jurchen soldier.

Using the partitions of the city walls, you can shoot and kill Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers without any worries. This is what Gao Shixin likes to do the most. Although his close-fitting ability is not bad, once he is approached by Jianzhou heavy infantry, he may only be able to kill dozens of them, and he will only play        over.

With the city wall blocking, the heavy infantry in the Later Jin Dynasty could not approach it, so Gao Shixin could shoot arrows calmly. If he did not take advantage of this good opportunity to kill monsters and upgrade, he would be too sorry for the city wall.

Oh, I almost forgot something. The system told him that after the Ming Dynasty, his level could no longer be upgraded. But it doesn’t matter. The current upgrade is not to upgrade combat effectiveness, but to upgrade his official position.

Man Gui and the others were also shooting archers, but their archery skills were far inferior to Gao Shixin, and they did not have the ability to shoot dozens of heavy arrows in succession. They could only aim at the coated arrows under the city, but could not shoot arrows farther away at the Mongols and Jurchen soldiers. However, these people were also considered good archers. They used the small bow that didn't require much effort to shoot light arrows, covering them one after another, and shot the coated arrows under the city one after another into hedgehogs.

Anyway, there were enough arrows. There were arrows in the warehouses in the city. However, there were not many people in the Ming army who were good at shooting. Apart from the servants of officers at all levels and the more than 100 brothers of Gao Shixin, there were no few people.

Even Malin and others joined the archery ranks personally, while Malin targeted the Korqin people who drove away the clothes and filled the trenches. The Mongols had almost no armor protection on their bodies, and they were shot one by one by one by Marlin, and more than ten people were shot in succession.
