Chapter 745 Machine Gun
According to the attacker's original plan, the first carriage that could not explode in Dali City, even if the chariot was not exposed, it would have to explode in the most prosperous commercial area in the city, trying to kill the people in the city, making Dali City frustrated and have no time to care about it. As for the current residents of Dali City, Dali people are still the main ones. Such an explosion will kill many people, and the attacker doesn't care at all.
When Dali Kingdom was still there, these royal nobles did not regard the lower Dali people as humans. Now that Dali Kingdom is gone, they don’t care about the lives of ordinary Dali people even more.
On the contrary, they thought that after such major casualties, Dali people would blame China for failing to maintain good public order, thus shaking their recognition of China's rule.
No one was worried about whether the victims would hate them. The princes and nobles in Dali felt that they should be born to be the masters of Dali and the masters of those victims.
Isn’t it a glorious thing to sacrifice slaves for their masters?
Since they thought so, the attackers from other places naturally didn't care.
According to the attacker's idea, after the explosion is successful, the martial arts masters who are ambushing this direction will rush into the city, slash and slaughter, and expand the chaos.
The garrison outside Dali City should be dispatched quickly to rescue Dali.
At this time, the second self-destructing carriage attacked the Chinese army in line.
If everything goes well, this carriage can cause major casualties to the Chinese army and make the Chinese army lose sight of each other between the camp and Dali City.
If there is a chance, the assassins here will try to attack several times, putting more pressure on the Chinese army and delaying more time.
If there is no chance, they will harass the Chinese army along the way and try to prevent the Chinese army from coming to rescue the farm.
However, just like the way along Dali City, the actions here are also very good.
When the self-destruction carriage was trying to get close to the military camp, it was seen by sentries in advance - Dali City had already exploded, so the military camp was naturally vigilant immediately.
In fact, even if you don’t be vigilant, the self-destructed carriage cannot approach the gate of the military camp because there are horse-rejecting horses and barbed wire in front of the gate. Moreover, the military camp is located in an open area outside the city. A carriage forcibly rushed towards the military camp, and it is strange that it cannot be noticed.
The self-destructing carriage ignored the sentry's warning and forcibly charged towards the military camp. As a result, a horse was entangled with barbed wire and failed to rush forward.
The Chinese soldiers immediately fired muskets, and the lead bullet killed all four horses and the coachman. The coachman detonated gunpowder before his death - this was the second explosion Xu Shiyang saw.
This explosion blew a huge gap in the barbed wire in front of the military camp and a huge deep pit was blown up on the road.
But it failed to cause any casualties to the Chinese army.
Neither attack had the expected effect, but there were also attackers for the Chinese army, which was limited to the backward communication methods. They did not know whether the restraining actions of both sides had succeeded. They could only attack the farm immediately after seeing the explosion.
In addition to the problem, the main attackers attacking the farm also used a self-destructing carriage to take the lead, but I don’t know if the driver was too nervous and the carriage was too fast, which was out of touch with the subsequent infantry.
Some masters with better light skills barely followed not far behind the carriage, while others pulled further away. As a result, the attackers who did not cooperate with each other became a long snake formation.
After the attackers rushed into the farm, they met with the guards' defensive positions in the vast fields.
Xu Shiyang took a look and was surprised to find that the enemy had only one carriage.
"This is not a tank! You're too underestimating people!"
The carriage rushed towards this side regardless of everything, and it seemed to be a bit aggressive, but he was rushing to the northeast corner of the vehicle square array, facing a "gun-jacking card".
What the Chinese army now calls gun-mounting card is actually installing an early machine gun on the carriage... Well, it cannot be said to be a machine gun, it is actually a multi-tube volleyball gun.
Montini, whose shape is relatively close to another plane, also bundles 37 barrels in a cylinder, and the bullets are placed in a bullet plate similar to the magic machine cannon medicine.
The operator places the loaded bullet disc at the gap at the back end of the gun body, pushes a lever, pushes the locking block forward, and completes the locking. At this time, the bullet is exactly aligned with each barrel.
The operator then rotates a rocker located behind, and the strike device hits all 37 bullets in the bullet disc one by one.
After one round of shooting, the operator pulls the lever and slides out the bullet disc. The operator puts another bullet-loaded bullet disc in and starts another round of shooting.
Simply put, this is somewhat like a machine gun version of the magic machine cannon. The loading mode is very close to that of the magic machine cannon, but it is much more advanced in terms of attack.
With pre-loaded bullet disks, a trained machine gun team can use such a machine gun to fire 2oo bullets in one minute.
This machine gun was just a major of the 6th Army from the Third Arsenal of the Empire (Tianmen), and has only made less than twenty of the machine guns. After Xu Shiyang found out, he asked for a few of them from the arsenal to make gun cards.
As a result, it came in handy now.
Although it is only an early machine gun, it is already a "big killing weapon" for enemies who like group charges.
As long as there are two machine guns with good shooting range, even the elite cold weapon troops cannot reach the fore with their number before shooting all the bullets.
The attackers this time are no exception, not to mention that they are not really elite.
When the self-destruction carriage approached about 30 meters of the vehicle, it was hit by a machine gun head-on. 37 bullets were shot out almost instantly. The long tongue of flames was like a whip, cutting two horses pulling the carriage and the coachman into two pieces!
Another lucky bullet hit the wheel (which shows how big it is), and the wheels on one side of the carriage flew to the side.
After losing a wheel, the remaining two horses were neighing and struggling, but the modified heavy carriage and two hundred kilograms of gunpowder inside were pressed so hard that the poor horse could not move at all.
The self-destruction tactic failed tragically.
This is actually not surprising. If you want to succeed in the self-destruction tactic, you must first suppress the enemy's counterattack firepower and charge directly at the enemy with counterattack ability. Even if the self-destruction Steyr has been carefully modified in another plane, it is difficult to succeed, let alone these carriages that cannot provide comprehensive protection (at least the horses that pull the carts have poor protection).
About half a minute after the self-destruction carriage lost its ability to move, the first group of pedestrian attackers appeared in the guards' vision. At this time, the machine gun had naturally replaced the bullet disk.
Then there was a fire-breaking blow.
