Chapter 86 Attack on Tartars(1/5)

In the entire Yuan army array, all the gunners were already in panic and did not dare to continue firing.

Seeing this, several Yuan army generals had to persuade the barbarian Hague.

"Sir, let the artillery retreat slightly. The thief army was fighting too accurately, and no one dared to move forward."

"Yes, sir, step back a little and increase the amount of medicine, you can still bombard Chuzhou City."

"Sir, step back a little, otherwise the morale of the army may be shaken."

The barbarian Hague had a pale face, but had to accept these proposals.

In just a few rounds of artillery, more than 20 yuan of military artillery were destroyed. If we had to go back ten or eight rounds, the entire army would probably be wiped out.

"Back eighty steps!" The barbarian Hague said unwillingly.

If you have eighty steps more distances, it is equivalent to one hundred and fifty meters if you don’t dismantle them too much.

This is already beyond the effective range of the three-pound cannon, and it is only luck to hit the target.

The only two twelve-pound cannons can barely be fired.

"Sir, it's too far away, are you going to continue?" Hu Yiba said on the top of the city.

When Zhu Han saw the Yuan army retreat, he shook his head.

"No need, at such a long distance, even if the shells are fired, I don't believe they can come."

The Yuan army's artillery was not as good as Zhu Han's new artillery in terms of craftsmanship and materials.

The shells fired at such a long distance can only be scraped against the city walls of Chuzhou.

but.

The artillery of the Chuzhou defenders stopped roaring, but the Yuan army refused to stop.

The barbarian Hague ignored the opposition of the Han generals and forced the gunners to load more gunpowder, ignoring any of the statements of explosion.

The Han army gunners had no choice but to risk the amount of gunpowder loaded half the amount.

"If anyone's artillery cannot hit the Chuzhou city wall, the first military stick will be beheaded the second!"

A group of Mongolian soldiers from the Hague shouted loudly behind the gunner.

No matter how reluctant the Han army gunners were, they would not dare to disobey at all. The Mongolians' butcher knife was merciless.

With a command, the Yuan army issued an order to ignite and fire.

Boom boom!

A loud noise rang in front of the Yuan army's positions, and huge smoke rose up.

"how!"

The head coach, the Hague, was shocked and his ears roared.

He immediately turned around and saw that several Yuan army's artillery were tilted and a group of soldiers were also blown to death by the blow.

Many soldiers were seriously injured and wailed in pain on the ground.

"Sir, blow up!"

A Yuan general said with fear in his face, holding his helmet.

"Fry!"

The barbarian Hague suddenly looked angry.

Because the distance is too far, if you want to hit the Chuzhou city wall, you must fill with more gunpowder.

However, the fragile gun bore could not withstand too much pressure at all and was instantly blown to pieces.

This time, there were more than 30 casualties, which was much more powerful than the first three rounds of bombardment by the Chuzhou Rebel Army.

"Sir, you can't fight anymore. The thief must have used magic. Our cannons are evil and will definitely suffer counter-injury if they continue to fight!" A Han general begged.

No magic trick is just his excuse.

The distance is too far, it is impossible to avoid a blow-off.

"No, fire me again. If anyone dares to disobey the military order, behead him immediately!" The barbarian Hague showed no mercy.

"Sir, but..." The Han general wanted to persuade him.

Bang!

A whip whipped the Han general in the face.

It was immediately a scorching scar.

"Stop it! My son Tuohuan is dead. Do you despicable Han people dare to live a secret life? If you don't break through Chuzhou City this time, you will kill you Han people!" The barbarian Hague no longer had any reason.

Seeing this, the Han general did not dare to persuade him again, and could only be considered obedient.

The gunners of the Yuan army, forced by military orders, had to take the risk of preparing to reload and open fire.

Just now, when the Yuan army's artillery exploded, Zhu Han could see clearly at the head of Chuzhou City.

"Haha, these Tartar artillery are indeed useless. Such a small distance will make it explode." Zhu Han smiled.

"Sir, if we didn't bombard them, let them see how powerful we are." Hu Yiba said proudly next to him.

The Yuan army set up a formation in the distance. Although the Rebel artillery did not have a correct head, it could still bombard the front row array.

"No, keep the gunpowder and don't waste it." Zhu Han said.

A lot of gunpowder reserves in Chuzhou City were taken away by Zhou Dexing and Zhu Yuanzhang. The stock is now very limited and must be saved.

"Hey, the Tartars still have to continue firing?"

Just as Zhu Han was talking, he suddenly saw that the Yuan army outside the city was preparing to load and fire again.

"Aren't these Tartars afraid of death?" Hu Yiba also showed disdain.

The rebel soldiers in Chuzhou also bursts of laughter.

After a series of artillery attacks, the Chuzhou defenders' confidence increased greatly and they were no longer as weak as they were at the beginning.

boom!

With a roar, it sounded again on the Yuan army's positions.

The shoddy artillery of the Yuan army once again exploded.

For a moment, the rebels in Chuzhou City burst into laughter.

Many people even made up rumors and started shouting and laughing.

Zhu Han did not stop these behaviors.

It is a very good encouragement for morale.

But in the Yuan army formation, it is different.

There were terrible explosions one after another, and the Han army gunners were unwilling to continue.

The Yuan army did not give them a way out at all.

At such a long distance, there is less gunpowder to be loaded, so you will be beheaded if you can't hit the city wall.

If he had too much gunpowder filled, he would die of a complete corpse after he exploded.

Many Han army gunners simply threw away the guys in their hands, and they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Even if it is a military law, it is nothing more than beheading. If it is blown up, there will be no corpse.

"Sir, you can't do this anymore, your morale is not guaranteed." A Yuan army general advised.

"Yes, sir, our troops are ten times stronger than those of the thief, so we won't be so urgent."

"Sir, even if we don't need artillery to bombard the city, we can still succeed in capturing more nearby Han people and let them fill the trenches, consuming the strength of the thief army, and then siege the city!"

The barbarian The Hague has calmed down.

Although he didn't care about the life and death of the Han soldiers, he had too many blows, which affected his morale.

Many Mongolian soldiers have always been superstitious about gunpowder weapons.

If there are continuous explosions, many people will think that there are ghosts and gods who are helping the rebels.

"Let the gunners quit for the time being. You guys will set up a guard post around them, and no thief army is allowed to escape!"

The barbarian Hague said.

"As for orders, sir!"

The Yuan army's artillery finally fell silent.

After some trouble, the sky gradually faded.

The Yuan army began to send cavalry to search for Han people and their food and livestock around.

For a moment, there were bursts of screams outside Chuzhou City, and black smoke burning everywhere.

The rebel soldiers who had just won the first battle were all sad and angry again.
