Seven hundred and sixtieth chapters break through the city
Sun Chengzong, who also saw this scene in the telescope, was still immersed in a huge shock. He never expected that there would be such a terrifying weapon in this world. The impression that the orchid-colored flames that could not be extinguished was really shocking.
He turned his head and looked at it, and found that the Liaodong army generals behind him also had different expressions. Zu Dashou looked dull, and his left hand kept drawing patterns in the air of unknown patterns.
His cousin Zu Dale kept muttering things no one could understand, and Wu Sangui, who had just been hit by a thirty army stick, was so big that he could stuff a duck egg into it. As for the other Liaodong army generals, it was roughly the same. Everyone was stunned by the flames that were like hell.
Faced with this kind of flame that human power cannot resist, many people's faces looked ugly, especially those who saw the fire people covered with flames and danced with pain. All the people who saw this scene looked extremely pale.
In fact, let alone the generals of the Liaodong Army, the generals of the Jiangning Army are not much better. After all, this kind of incendiary bomb has been used on the battlefield for the first time since it was manufactured. Except for Yang Feng and a few officers and gunners in the artillery battalion, no one knew that there was such a killer in his army.
At this moment, something that later generations called civilization began to reveal its hideous sharp teeth, and anyone who saw this scene felt a feeling of despair in his heart.
"Mr. Sun...My army gates, I think it's time for the entire army to attack..."
Yang Feng's voice sounded again in Sun Chengzong's ears.
"oh oh……"
Sun Chengzong, who was reminded for the second time, came to his senses. He looked at the collapse mouth of the southern city wall, which was still burning with flames, and then turned around and shouted to the generals: "Everyone, the Tartars are tyrannical. Since the thief chief Nurhaci raised his army, he has harmed the people of the Ming Dynasty and plundered the property of our people. Today is the time for us to complete our contributions in one battle.
Now this governor has ordered that everyone follow Jiangning Hou to attack and follow his orders and not make any mistakes! Do you understand?"
"I will understand!"
"Here!"
As the generals agreed, Yang Feng glanced at the generals and said lightly: "I will lead the Jiangning army to go first later and open a gap first. You must lead the troops to follow in immediately. If you are unwilling to follow up, you can also shaking flags and shouting outside the city."
As soon as Yang Feng said, the generals of the Liaodong Army were furious, and even Zu Dashou was so angry that smoke came from his seven orifices.
He shouted: "Jiangning Hou needs to underestimate people. Why do you need the Jiangning Army to take the lead? Our Liaodong Army is not a coward."
After saying that, he clasped his fists at Sun Chengzong and said, "Supervisor, the last general asks to lead the army to the forefront. If you cannot break into the city and be dealt with by military law, please be sure to accept it!"
Sun Chengzong glanced at Yang Feng and stroked his beard and said, "Since General Zu asks for an order, how can I refuse me? Let's go. Jiangning Hou, I will not be angry if I interfere in this matter."
Yang Feng smiled faintly: "Since General Zu has the intention to kill thieves, how could I be so strange? Take Ben Hu and lead the army to follow General Zu. Let's kill the enemy together."
After a few words of distributing the offensive plan, the Ming army's general attack finally began.
At the forefront, the 10,000 Liaodong Army led by Shi Zu Dashou, these soldiers in armor began to move towards Shengjing City in neat formations. They only started to shout when they were three hundred steps away from the city. A famous soldier rushed towards the gap under the leadership of the officer.
At this time, a Qing soldier began to appear on the city wall and began to shoot arrows under the city.
Arrows were like rain, and soldiers kept falling down, but the people next to them ignored them and still rushed forward.
The Liaodong Army in armor had already rushed to the city wall, and many of them were carrying long ladders. Although the arrow rain on the top of the city was still dense, they did not stop.
"Architecture Battalion...replace firepower suppression immediately!"
On the artillery position in the distance, Chiu Disheng was lying on an artillery team. While correcting the angle, he ordered the artillery battalion to fire. This time, the artillery battalion fired not napalm bombs, but solid bombs and flowering bombs.
"boom……"
A flowering bullet exploded on the top of the city, bombing several infantry soldiers who were shooting archery into the air. The shock wave caused by the explosion even flew several stones to Zu Dale, who was commanding the battle, which scared him.
Zu Dale looked at the city wall with thick smoke in front of him and couldn't help but curse: "Damn, what are the bastards behind him doing? He dares to shoot fire at this time. If he accidentally hurts me, I will make him look good!"
In fact, when Zu Dale didn't know, this kind of infra-cannon coordination, which seemed very common to later generations, was a major innovation in this era.
The so-called infantry and artillery coordination is the coordination ability of infantry and artillery.
The most important thing about this is to rely on the improvement of the accuracy of the artillery and also rely on the sufficient training of the artillery.
In previous operations, as long as the infantry began to attack or charge, the artillery would stop firing, and the fear was to accidentally injure the friendly forces.
But now, these Liaodong troops have rushed to about a hundred meters away from the city, and the artillery is still firing.
This also proves that the gunners of the Jiangning Army have reached a very high level of operation of artillery and have sufficient confidence in themselves.
The projectiles and shells hit the city, and the soil and stones that were smashed splashed from time to time, even the body of the siege soldiers.
The Tartars on the top of the city who were using crossbows to shoot arrows at the city were terrible under the shelling. Some people had turned into bloody corpses before they even had time to release their crossbows.
Such artillery fire did not stop until the Liaodong Army rushed to a distance of more than 60 meters from the city wall.
But that's not the end. In the rain of arrows, a Jiangning army in iron armor led by an officer to a place more than 200 meters away from the city. These soldiers were different from ordinary Jiangning army. The muskets in their hands were longer and more well-made.
The person in charge is nothing else, but Song Ye, the head of Yang Feng’s servant.
Song Ye came to the city with five hundred servants, holding Nimi rifles, and replaced the artillery battalion to suppress the fire on the city.
Speaking of Nimi rifle, although it has high accuracy and great power, it is precisely because its destructive power is too great that it can even pose a threat to itself. So far, Yang Feng has not equipped it with troops on a large scale, but only equipped it with his servants and a small number of elite soldiers. Those ordinary troops are only equipped with brown besie muskets.
Relying on the long-range range and accuracy of the Nimi rifle, the three hundred servants led by Song Ye suppressed the Tartars on the city head so that they could hardly raise their heads. This also made the troops led by Zu Dale rushed into the city wall from the collapsed mouth without encountering too fierce resistance.
When Zu Dale led the Ming army into the city, Zu Dashouan, who was commanding behind, couldn't help but feel excited and shouted loudly: "Brothers, the city is broken, all of them will fight with me!"
