Chapter 313 Rifled Gun vs Archer

At this time, the advantages of Triangle Fortress are reflected. Triangle Fortress on both wings can ignore the front protection of the shield car, and can easily shoot the Qing soldiers behind the shield car with bows and arrows with ranges from both wings.

Liu Zhaoji and Liu Shidou and other generals were also standing in Triangle Fort holding a pair of bows and arrows, and kept shooting arrows at the Qing Korean soldiers under the city. The general's archery skills were better than ordinary soldiers and had better physical strength. He continued to shoot arrows, and each arrow could knock down the life of a Qing Korean soldier.

Seeing that Liu Zhaoji and Liu Shidou had a good time, Zhao Peng took out his bow and arrow, ran out of the central mother castle, rushed towards the Triangle castle.

"Mr. Marquis, go there!" Chen Yunying chased after him from behind.

"Kill Jiannu!" Zhao Peng said without replying.

"Mr. Marquis, be careful and be careful!" Chen Yunying chased after him and shouted.

"Miss Chen, don't worry. When I was in Shanhaiguan, I shot and killed countless Jiannu, or real slaves! These fake Jiannu are even more worth mentioning!" Zhao Peng said with a smile.

Chen Yunying caught up and walked forward side by side with Zhao Peng: "Marty, although the archery skills of the Goryeo people are not very good, their firearms are very powerful. The Goryeo people's bird guns are much stronger than ours. If the bird guns are shot against each other, our army is not an opponent. It's just that our army has the advantage in the terrain and is not at a loss."

In his previous life, Zhao Peng often played games from the Empire Age when he was a child. Goryeo was a nation of bows and arrows in the Empire Age. The Goryeo bows and arrows in the game are very powerful, especially the arrow tower, which has a long range and great power.

In the game, Goryeo's muskets and cannons and trenchers are all very powerful weapons. Goryeo is a very strong nation. But in reality, Goryeo is not very good. It can be said to be a relatively weak nation, a thousand-year-old stick slave. It was originally a vassal state of China, and then became a Japanese colony. Later, it became a dog in the United States.

To be honest, Zhao Peng looked down on those Goryeo sticks at all.

Zhao Peng climbed to the Triangle Fort, stood behind the female wall, and looked down at the city. He saw a large number of Qing army shield cars pouring in from the gap that was filled, and densely packed Qing army and Korean musketeers followed.

The dense light arrows were shot at the heads of the city on both sides, and the North Korean musketeers shot in large numbers. Only a scream was heard. The North Korean musketeers holding bird guns were shot into hedgehogs and fell one after another.

Zhao Peng pulled the bowstring, put a heavy arrow on the bowstring, aimed at a North Korean musketeer. He relaxed his fingers and flew out, accurately shot the North Korean musketeer in the throat, and shot him to the ground. Then he took out another arrow, pulled the bowstring, and shot another North Korean musketeer.

"Mr. Marquis is good at archery skills!" Liu Zhaoji, Liu Shidou and Shen Yunying applauded in unison.

Zhao Peng shot out arrows quickly, one after another, and shot twenty arrows in one breath. There were already twenty North Korean musketeers who fell under his arrow.

However, Zhao Peng, who had shot twenty arrows in a row, began to feel his arms numb and it was difficult to pull the arrows. So he returned the bow back to his back, took a breath for a while, and then shot arrows at the Koreans.

Although the bird guns equipped by the North Korean musketeers are excellent, their range is still not as good as bows and arrows. Most North Korean musketeers were shot by the Ming army before they even entered the range.

In addition to archers, the Ming army also shot fiercely at the North Koreans under the city. The projectiles shot from a high point continued to penetrate into the North Koreans. The blood mist rose from the crowd under the city, and countless North Koreans fell down screaming.

Finally, a Korean bird gunner approached the fortress within 40 steps, raised one bird gun after another, and shot at the top of the city wall.

"Bang bang bang" A burst of white smoke rose from the Korean soldiers. Bullets hit Triangle Fort, causing sparks to splash. Only a few bullets penetrated into the city, causing extremely small casualties to the defenders.

The defenders and the turtledove gunmen extended various muskets from the shooting holes and fired violently at the city.

On one side, he stood in an open ground with almost no protection; on the other side, he stood behind the female wall and extended a gun barrel from the shooting hole to shoot. The exchange ratio between the two sides was simply disproportionate. In the shooting, only one Ming army was shot for every ten North Korean musketeers fell down.

What's more, did there be tiger squatting cannons on the top of the city spew out flames and shot into the Korean soldiers like rain?

When the Qing army's Korean soldiers and bird gunmen were shooting at the top of the city, the Eight Banners soldiers behind them also pressed up, and from a hundred steps away, they shot rows of light arrows at the top of the city.

The black arrows flew into the sky like locusts flying all over the sky, and then fell to the city like rain.

Although the number of soldiers from the Eight Banners of Manchuria was small, the light arrows they shot from the sky still caused some losses to the defenders on the city. Many Ming soldiers were caught in arrows and fell down screaming.

However, although the light arrows have a long range, they are not very lethal for the Ming army with light armor protection. Among the Ming soldiers who were shot in the arrow, most of them were slightly injured, except for a few unlucky people who were shot in the arrow.

Before archery, the Qing army archers inserted arrowheads into various feces as before, making the arrows turn into poisonous arrows. However, since the Ming army learned Zhao Peng's medical skills, almost all the Ming army injured by arrows survived, and various disinfection treatment methods were used to immunize the "magic" attack effect of the Qing army's poisonous arrows.

However, these Qing army Eight Banners archers hid outside the range of Ming army bird guns, even turtle dove guns and tiger squat cannons, and the Ming army had no choice but to shoot light arrows. The Ming army had no choice but to use them. The light arrows shot by Ming army archers were of no effect on the Eight Banners soldiers, and the Eight Banners soldiers' armors could be said to be almost completely physically immune to bows and arrows.

Zhao Peng was extremely anxious and asked Liu Zhaoji: "Why didn't Liu Junmen arrange one or two larger cannons in the Triangle Fort?"

"The Marquis returns to the Marquis and finally put too few cannons here. If it is placed in the Triangle Fort in front, once it is destroyed by the Jiannu cannon, wouldn't it be a huge loss?" Liu Zhaoji replied.

Zhao Peng turned around and asked a Jinyiwei beside him who was carrying a self-generated poison gun: "Have you loaded ammunition in your gun?"

The Jinyiwei nodded: "Return to the Marquis, you have already loaded your ammunition."

"Give me the musket." Zhao Peng stretched out his hand.

The Jinyiwei took off the musket from his back and handed it to Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng took the musket, aimed at a archer of the Eight Banners who was raising an arrow a hundred and fifty steps away, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang" With a crisp sound of the gun, a stream of white smoke emerged from the poisonous gun. A blood hole appeared on the forehead of the Eight Banners archer a hundred and fifty steps away. A blood arrow sprayed out, and the archer fell backwards.

Zhao Peng handed the self-producing poison gun to the Jinyiwei and asked him to reload it. He then took the self-producing poison gun from another Jinyiwei and aimed at the second Eight Banner archer. Another bullet sent the Eight Banner archer back to his hometown.

Then he took the third self-generated poison gun, aimed at an Eight Banner archer, pulled the trigger, and sent the guy back to his hometown.

"This musket is so powerful!" Liu Zhaoji kept praising him.

Zhao Peng finished shooting the projectiles in the fourth musket and handed them over to the Jinyiwei to reload. Since the rifled rifle reloading speed was extremely slow, he had nothing to do now, so he replied to Liu Zhaoji's words: "This is a poisonous gun that can take the enemy's head within 300 steps!"

"It's so amazing! You're still a firearm, no wonder you don't use a fuse." Liu Zhaoji sighed.

However, the disadvantages of the rifled rifle are also very obvious, and the loading speed is extremely slow. The Jinyiwei first used a strip to clean the projectile debris in the gun barrel, then opened the bamboo tube containing the fixed gunpowder, poured the gunpowder in, and then stuffed the projectile into the gunpoint. Use the strip to push the projectile into the gunpoint. When it cannot be pushed, it also had to knock the strip through with a wooden hammer.
