Chapter 735 Bullets are fair

Although the soldiers tried their best to tread lightly, the sound of more than 7,000 feet falling alternately on the ground was still very abrupt in the empty and silent plateau night.

Therefore, when the Ming army's forward was still two or three kilometers away from the city wall, some sleepy soldiers on the city wall were finally alerted.

"Enemy attack!"

With the first roar, more and more Spanish soldiers discovered the enemy troops getting closer and closer to the city wall. Among the countless shouts, some soldiers finally responded and rang the warning bell in the attic of the city wall.

Amidst the rapid and long clanging sound, in the city of Bogotá, which had been mostly plunged into darkness, dots of lights appeared one after another. Countless soldiers who had fallen asleep peacefully climbed out of their warm quilts in a panic and pulled up their arms.

He grabbed a pair of pants, grabbed a jacket and started running outside.

"Tmd, we were discovered so far away. There's nothing we can do about it. Brothers, there's no need to suppress your speed. Sprint!"

"yes!"

As the Ming army completely let go of its speed, within seven or eight minutes from the first Spanish soldier shouting out the enemy attack, more than 3,000 special forces rushed to the bottom of the city wall of Bogotá. At this time, the people in the city

The Spanish soldiers haven't had time to get on the wall yet. But on the city wall...

Spain's colonies in the Americas were divided into four governorates, and there were more governorates under the governorates. The four cities of Mexico City, Lima, Bogota and Buenos Aires were where the four governors were based -

—In other words, before North America was effectively opened up, Bogota was one of the four largest cities in America in the 17th century.

At this time point in December 1642, the nearby Viceroyalty of Peru had completely fallen. Therefore, the city of Bogota, the capital of the Viceroyalty of New Granada, was Spain's core hub in northern South America. This city, at this time

The average height of the city wall is seven meters, and the circumference reaches 23 kilometers - such a long city wall, even if the 10,000 soldiers stationed in the city at this time are all stationed on the wall, it will be too much. Not to mention, most of the soldiers are

Disobeying Prince Louis's order, he secretly ran down the city to sleep. Therefore, despite the fact that there were still 3,000 soldiers on the city wall at this time, it was almost the same as the number of Ming troops rushing into the city. But these 3,000 people were scattered across the 23 kilometers of the city.

The long defense line is like water droplets sprinkled into the desert, completely close to nothing.

Prince Louis was still too young. He didn't even know that he required all soldiers to stay alert and stay on duty on the city wall for a long time. Not only did the people below not obey, but even the attendants around him didn't take it seriously - such a cold weather made it difficult for him to do so.

If all the soldiers don't rest when there is no war, and they are freezing on the city wall every day, and you don't set an example yourself, how can you continue to enforce this? If you really enforce it seriously and suppress it forcefully, the soldiers will mutiny.

He didn't even know that such a large city could never be defended with just such a small number of troops: scout teams were scattered everywhere to warn, and troops were concentrated in the city. Once the scout team gave a warning, the entire army immediately took action.

Collective reaction is the right thing!

Unfortunately, he had no one in the court in Madrid to teach him this. After he came to America, the American generals also lost interest in teaching him because he was too "kind" in Mexico. And the real city defense commander,

On the one hand, he did not dare to say more about his identity as a prince. On the other hand, he also believed that our side had a chance to win, so His Highness was allowed to do whatever he wanted. Then...

"Snipers! Each company sends a group of snipers to target the enemy troops on the city wall, especially knock out the machine gun points for me!"

"Is the slinger up yet? Set up a zipline and quickly climb to the city!"

As Cao Bianjiao roared loudly, the company commanders of each battalion also issued various instructions. The well-trained snipers quickly found the hills relatively high above the ground outside the city to set up sniper points. The soldiers charging at the front

They also took out the throwing device from their backs, and amid bursts of heart-wrenching "clang clang", countless five-claw flying ropes, driven by high-pressure air, flew to the top of the seven-meter-high wall.

"Bang! Bang bang!" The first sniper teams of each company, who were in position one after another, began to roll their names towards the figure holding a torch on the wall and looking down. The Spanish soldier who was directly hit in the vital point was struck by the huge power of the sniper rifle.

After a handful of blood flowers burst out from their bodies, they either fell on the city wall or fell directly from the city wall. And those soldiers who did not hit the vital points and were still alive for a while, because of the pain caused by the wounds

The loud screams not only highlighted the cruelty of the battlefield, but also made the hands of the few soldiers who were setting up machine gun belts shake even more.

After all, the city wall was too long and the troop density was seriously insufficient. After the Ming army's snipers showed their power, soon there were not many enemy troops on the section of the city wall chosen by the Ming army. At this time, the Ming army had set up the zip line.

The soldiers began to skillfully use ropes to climb the city wall.

At 11:52 pm on December 3, Spanish soldiers discovered Cao Bianjiao's troops and began to warn them.

At midnight on the 4th, Cao Bianjiao's troops arrived at the gates of Bogotá.

At 00:01:40, the snipers of the Special Forces achieved their first victory.

At 0:03 and 7 seconds, the first Ming army soldier boarded the city of Bogota.

"Captain, brothers, go up!"

"Very good. Let each company quickly build a sniper point on the city wall, and name the enemy officers of the organization who dare to stand up under the city. Let the soldiers of the combat squad move in from left to right to clean up the remaining enemies on the city wall. Use mortars and force

Quickly pull up the cannon and mount it on the city wall to blast into the city!"

"Captain, don't worry. We have practiced these things countless times in Quito. Brothers know how to do them."

"That's right." Cao Bianjiao put down his telescope and started walking forward.

"Captain, don't you want it?"

"Yes, in this kind of battle to compete for time, you must take part in person."

"...Okay, then I'll be a bit aggrieved and wait outside the city."

"Hey, I guess you won't be able to stay outside the city for long. I guess the city gate will be opened soon."

Just when Cao Bianjiao and his deputy captain were walking in separate directions, the situation in the city was already in a state of uproar.

If the warning bell that sounded more than ten minutes ago only caused the alert soldiers to react quickly. Most of the other ordinary people were still mumbling nonsense like "Who is such a bastard to disturb my sweet dreams?" Then.

, when the Ming army climbed to the top of the city and fired into the city. No matter how slow the reaction was, everyone understood: This is the enemy coming!

In this city, in addition to 10,000 Spanish soldiers, there are also about 50,000 civilians who came from Mexico by sea: they have just delivered a batch of supplies and are preparing to return tomorrow after a night's rest. In addition, this city

, as well as nearly a thousand Spanish nobles and more than 30,000 civilians.

Due to the fall of the Viceroyalty of Peru, the Spanish nobles who were previously domineering in the Viceroyalty of Peru were either caught, held a public trial under the auspices of members of the Ming-Indian coalition at all levels, and then shot. Or they took their belongings and

The family, as well as some of their trusted servants, fled to the nearby Viceroyalty of New Granada and to Bogotá, the capital of the Viceroyalty. This group of people, plus the Spanish nobles who were already entrenched in the Viceroyalty of Granada - such a large group

Parasites and hedgehogs gather in Bogotá, and they usually don’t feel anything. But when the war suddenly spreads here, the terror of being caught by the former Indian slaves at any time, and being liquidated in a public meeting, suddenly suddenly

It got into my heart. And then... all kinds of uncontrollable, heart-rending, hysterical wailing and yelling began in various places in the city.

"Bastard, bastard, bastard! Soldiers, how dare you disobey my order and go down to the wall to rest?"

On weekdays, Prince Louis would leave the city wall at eight o'clock at night and return to the city to rest. At nine o'clock in the morning, His Royal Highness would return to the city wall for inspection. Therefore, in the past ten days, the soldiers stationed in the city had already figured out His Highness's routine.

: At 8:30 in the evening, two-thirds of the soldiers will go down to the wall to rest, and then come back before 8:30 in the morning.

This behavior was well known to everyone from the city defense commander Martin down to the attendants Louis brought from Madrid. In fact, Louis was the only one in the city who knew it.

But tonight? The secret is revealed.

However, at this time, why bother with such a thing?

"Your Highness! At this time, we should not criticize our soldiers for violating your orders. The most important thing at the moment is to quickly organize the soldiers to fight against the enemy's sneak attack!"

"Adrian, do you even want to protect them? Oh, but you are right. Okay, soldiers, we will talk about your violation of my orders later. Now, put on your clothes and pants, pick up your

Weapons, scale the city wall, and put..."

"Bang~!"

In the noisy city, the huge sniper rifle sound coming from the city wall seems unremarkable. However, the sound is not outstanding, but the bullets fired by the heavy sniper rifle specially developed by Daming Fangshan Academy of Sciences for the special forces are real.7.62

The bullet accurately found Louis, who was serving gorgeously in the crowd and kept jumping up and down. Then the bullet entered from the cheekbone on the left side of Louis' nose, effortlessly penetrated the opponent's cheekbone and continued

Going deep, turning, and finally, with a "bang" sound, half of Louis' head was blown away. The brain was mixed with blood, staining several attendants around him!

Just when these attendants were stunned for a moment, and then all roared in despair. On top of the city wall, Wang Shunwen, a sniper instructor of the special forces regiment who was nearly fifty years old, exhaled gently with an expressionless face, and then opened his eyes again.
