When Cao Xiu heard the artillery fire from other vehicles gradually began to decrease, he reached out his hand and quickly touched the barrel.
"Ah!" Cao Xiu shouted. Fortunately, he acted quickly, otherwise he would have had blisters.
It was overheated and he felt nervous.
According to the operating code, the gunner is the commander and the monitor of the artillery status. At this time, according to the operating code, the gunner should stop firing.
The artillerymen don't care about this, they just fire, fire rapidly, and fire desperately.
In short, they will do whatever the superiors say. As long as they obey the orders of their superiors, they do not have any responsibility.
In Yang Fan's army, the division of power and responsibility is very clear. No one can mess around. All kinds of rules and regulations are used to control people, and things cannot be done outside the rules. The supervisor's initiative must be within the regulations.
The brains at the grassroots level are the corps commanders, team leaders, small flags, and general flags. They are the ones who need to adapt to the enemy. Of course, soldiers can have the right to make suggestions, but it is the superior who has the final say on whether to adopt them, and the superior is fully responsible.
You can't fire anymore, otherwise the cannon will be damaged. If the barrel is exploded or the barrel is damaged, Cao Xiu will be investigated and prosecuted by the Suppression Department.
"Stop shooting!" Cao Xiu ordered decisively.
Seeing that as soon as the artillery fire stopped, the crowd that had been stopped began to get up again and continue to surge forward. The soldiers were very anxious. However, they also had to carry out the order.
Disobedience on the battlefield is punishable by beheading. Even if the commander's order is wrong, you must obey it. The commander will be held accountable when the time comes.
Cao Xiu jumped out of the side door, took out a tube of fireworks, and pulled the fuse directly.
Hugh! A yellow flare shot up into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, yellow flares rose one after another.
Hugh! Hugh! Hugh!
Countless yellow flares rose from the chariots surrounding the walls.
This is a notification signal that the gun has overheated and stopped firing.
Although Mang Gurtai, Khan Ahai, Buyan Ahai and others did not know what this meant, the shelling gradually stopped with the yellow signal flares.
"Alas! You are still wise, Heshuo Baylor. If I had stopped the attack just now and given them time to cool down the artillery, today's attack would have been in vain." Khan Ahai said, wiping his cold sweat.
"Yes, Da Jin is still very powerful. He knows the Ming Dynasty's army very well, and his time calculation is wonderful." Buyan Ahai also expressed his admiration.
"Hahaha, Ben Beile and Ming Dynasty have been at war for a long time. I think back then, when I was thirteen years old, I followed my father to conquer the world. Ming people are nothing. As soon as they stick their butts out, I know what they are going to do. Hahaha
.”
All the Tai Ji and Tabu Nang also laughed along with them.
Since the soldiers in the carriage camp stopped firing, the Mongols would rush up soon, and everyone was very anxious.
"Return the cannon, lower the tailgate, and lock it," Cao Xiu ordered.
Everyone immediately moved the heavy copper hair basket back in a hurry and stopped it in the middle of the carriage. There were signs on the floor of the carriage and then fixed it. This position is the center of gravity of the carriage and is stipulated in the operating instructions.
Artillery storage location.
The gunner poured water on a blanket and wrapped it around the barrel. There was a roar and steam came out.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wang, you two go to the roof of the car with repeating guns and halberds to guard. Xiao Zhao, Xiao Li, you two go under the car with the same weapons." Cao Xiu ordered.
He stood guard in the car, prepared a nine-shot rifle, and prepared to shoot through the shooting port of the car's tailgate. The shooting port of the car's tailgate was only one foot square, and it was impossible for anyone to get through.
Several people took action immediately.
They got on and off the car with weapons.
The militia group behind immediately took up their weapons and went up to the city wall, preparing to attack these Mongolian soldiers just like the last attack on the herdsmen.
"Sir, the artillery has stopped firing at this time. Are we going to use the machine gun you mentioned?" Xiao Niangpi asked.
Ever since the last time we saw this hand-operated Gatling gun at the experimental site, it left an indelible impression on Lin Yueru and Xiao Niangpi.
The high-speed rotating barrel, the lightning-like shooting, and the bullet casings falling like raindrops shocked the two of them, and they couldn't speak for a long time. They opened their mouths, looking at this kind of cavalry terminator that the master said.
"My dear wife, you guessed it right. Let's kiss her first. Now let's let our Death Scythe come on stage." Yang Fan smiled, hugged Tu Shanyue, and kissed her on her pink cheek.
The little girl was embarrassed and surprised, so she raised her little fist and hit him. Seeing Lin Yueru looking at him resentfully, she felt that it was not good to treat him favorably, so she quickly hugged him and kissed him.
Yang Fan took out his flare gun, pointed it at the sky, bang bang bang, and fired three purple flares in succession.
Seeing the purple signal bomb flying into the sky, about ten meters behind the car city, on the watchtowers built with steel pipe scaffolding, the soldiers and officers lifted the black cloth one after another, revealing what was covered underneath.
These are some mysterious objects with tripods and many tubes. None of Yang Fan's army has seen it. Only the officers and soldiers of the machine gun battalion who secretly stopped it recently have seen and used this thing.
The black cloths falling down from the high platform immediately aroused the attention of everyone in the camp.
"What the hell is that? It looks so weird,"
"Why are there so many pipes? Could they be firecrackers?"
Everyone started discussing in a low voice. After all, the Ming Dynasty had a three-eyed gun, which had multiple barrels connected in parallel. The six barrels connected in parallel probably had the same meaning.
The officers and soldiers on the lookout are all members of the machine gun battalion. According to the establishment, each team is equipped with one hand-operated Gatling machine gun. Currently, a battalion's combat troops are equipped with approximately ninety hand-operated Gatling machine guns. Each battalion is equipped with about ninety hand-operated Gatling machine guns.
There are thirty machine guns on one wall.
At this time, as the artillery fire stopped, almost all the Mongolians cried with joy. Damn it, these terrible heavy artillery finally stopped firing gradually.
It's so terrible. This is simply unbearable.
Even the city wall of Datong is tall and thick, and it is not as difficult to defeat as the Checheng.
The city wall of Datong is the nightmare of the Mongols. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Datong has never been breached, so much so that the Mongols cursed among themselves, saying that sooner or later, you will die under the city wall of Datong.
But, my God, Datong doesn’t have so many heavy artillery!
It's all a thousand catties of copper hair, and it will kill me.
This morning and afternoon, tens of thousands of people filled up in front of the not-so-high Checheng wall, without even touching the wall.
The one hundred meters close to the city wall is simply a road of death. There are broken corpses everywhere, rivers of blood, and it is as greasy as mud under your feet. Along the way, you keep falling, getting up, and advancing in the pool of blood, and then cannon
When it rang, they became part of the ground.
Today, their relatives and friends, Anda, have become messy pieces of meat in this place one by one.
The Mongols also had red eyes. When people are extremely frightened, they will become extremely angry.
"Come on, charge forward, chop these Han people to death, and avenge our brothers."
"Hula!"
"Hula!"
