Chapter 1101 Entering the city

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A four-pound cannon was set on the walls of Bansheng City.

"Taiji, I can't hold on anymore." Senaban shouted loudly by holding the sac.

The sound of cannons kept ringing, the sound was deafening, and there was no loud voice to speak, even if the people around them were not sure what they were saying.

The solid iron ball hit the city wall hard, and the blue bricks outside the city wall were constantly shattered.

The Mongols who were not good at defending the city were in chaos, and many iron balls fell into the crowd on the top of the city, causing large numbers of casualties.

Some of the iron balls flew over the city and fell on the house behind, breaking a lot of roofs and courtyard walls.

"Where are the Han people, leave those Han people to guard the city on the top of the city, and tell them that as long as they guard the city walls, they will be allowed to get rid of their slave status." Su Nang also shouted loudly to Senaban.

Senaban ran to pass the order.

The Mongols were not good at defending the city. After the army of tiger flags besieged the city, Su Nang brought all the Han slaves to the top of the city to defend the city.

Soon, the Mongols on the top of the city began to flee, and the slaves dressed in Han people were forced to stay on the city wall.

Some Han slaves were scared by the cannons with the tiger flag and were unwilling to stay on the city wall to face the cannons with the tiger flag. They mingled among the Mongolians to escape from the city wall.

However, a team of Mongolian soldiers had long been guarding the city wall. When they saw the Han people coming down from the city wall, they were now cut off the Han slaves who had escaped from the city wall.

When many Han slaves on the city wall saw this scene, even if they had the intention to escape from the city wall, they could only break this thought.

Several trenchers were placed on the top of the city, all of which were made by Han craftsmen.

At this time, the Han people on the top of the city began to use these stone-tree scattering tools to throw stones at the tiger flag cannon team outside the city.

The gap in technology is revealed again.

Although the catapult can attack enemies in the distance, its range is really limited, and even the four-pound cannon used by the Tiger Flag does not have half the range.

In addition, the Mongols liked to rely on cavalry to decide the outcome of the war on the grasslands, and they had not attacked the Ming Dynasty for many years, so they did not pay attention to troublesome operations such as trenchers.

These trenchers on the city wall were made when they attacked the Tiger Flag Dun Fort last time, and the quality was not so reliable.

Not to mention the accuracy, no one has contacted a trencher in normal times. Nowadays, people who use trenchers are still the Han craftsmen who build trenchers.

Su Nang left a team of armored cavalry to monitor the Han people on the top of the city, and he hid in a place in the city where the shelling could not be shot.

Tiger flag in camp.

Liu Heng held a monocular lens in his hand and looked at Ban Shengcheng, who was being bombarded in the distance. He said to Li Shuheng beside him: "I remember this time in order to attack Qingcheng, we brought two nine-pound cannons, why don't we get on?"

"It should be that Chen Xunping thinks that Bansheng City is not as strong as Qingcheng, and he doesn't think he can use the nine-pound cannon to attack the city!" Li Shuheng said from the side.

Although Banshengcheng has the advantage of the big Bansheng land, there is still a big gap compared with Qingcheng.

"You must use the nine-pound cannon when it should be used. This is the largest caliber cannon among our tiger-flag field cannons." Liu Heng turned his head and said to Zhao Wu, "Go and tell Chen Xunping, let him get the nine-pound cannon and blow the city wall away earlier."

"Yes." Zhao Wu agreed and the cannon went to convey the order.

The nine-pound cannon has been developed by the tiger flag for more than a year? It has never had the chance to be used on the battlefield? It is not that the power is not enough, but just because the four-pound cannon is enough to deal with the Mongols, so many nine-pound cannons have been used.

It was not long before two nine-pound guns with obvious gun bore a large circle were sent to the artillery team, replacing the positions of two four-pound guns.

At this time, dozens of four-pound cannons were no longer being fired.

Many gunners in the artillery team stared at the busy gunners beside the nine-pound cannon? If it weren't for not being able to leave their posts at will on the battlefield? Many people wanted to come and watch.

The nine-pound cannon is the most caliber gun used for field battles by the tiger flag? Of course? There are also larger caliber guns? But the caliber guns are either used to defend the city or to use them on sea boats. There is never a chance to pull the cannons under the enemy city like this?

The two nine-pound guns were loaded quickly with the gunner's busyness? They adjusted the angle of the muzzle.

"Let it go!" The cannon leader beside him waved the flag in his hand.

Boom! Boom!

The two nine-pound cannons made deafening sounds, and the gunners standing beside them all felt a trembling under their feet.

Two tongues of flames flew out of the cannon chamber, crossed the city wall in front, and the cannon fell on the roof behind the city wall.

The house that was caught in the cannon was like paper, instantly destroyed most of the roof, and the surrounding walls collapsed on both sides.

"Calibrate the angle and reload." The gunman issued an order.

The gunner began to clean up the residual medicine residue in the chamber gun, and the gunner recalculated the target and adjusted the angle of the muzzle.

Soon, two nine-pound cannons were fired again.

This time, the cannons fired from the two cannons accurately hit the city wall in front.

A loud bang came from the city wall.

The city wall, which was already shaking under the bombardment of four-pound cannons, collapsed directly at this time, revealing a gap.

Through the monocular, you can see that there are many figures scattered and fleeing behind the gap.

"Continue to shell the shell and expand the gap." The gunman continued to order.

Two nine-pound cannons were fired in two rounds in a row.

Nearly one-third of the city wall in front of me collapsed, revealing a gap of about twice the width of the city gate.

Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!

The sound of war drums rang out in the army camp.

"attack!"

The musketeers formed a team to approach the wall of Banshengcheng and began to enter Banshengcheng through the gap.

Some Han people guarding the city hid behind the city walls. After the musketeers with the tiger flag approached, they took the lead in attacking these Han people.

At this time, there was no distinction between Han and Mongols, only enemies and their own people.

The Han people who guarded the city for the Mongols were enemies for the soldiers with the tiger-shaped flag. To the enemy, the soldiers with the tiger-shaped flag were never rude.

The Han slaves with simple weapons faced the tiger-shaped flag soldiers armed to their teeth, and had no resistance at all. After just one encounter, they were beaten and fled.

The musketeers who entered Bansheng City through the gap in the city wall did not escape from the array to pursue because of the enemy's escape. Instead, they still maintained their formation and advanced little by little.

The gate of Banshengchengde was opened from inside.

Ma Yunjiu led the second battalion of the Iron Armored Cavalry Battalion, rushed into the city from the city gate, and began to fight with the Mongolian Armored Cavalry in the city.

Teams of musketeers entered the city and advanced along the roads in the city.

More and more Han slaves chose to abandon their weapons and kneel on the roadside to surrender. Some soldiers began to accept the surrender of these people and took them away and took them into custody.

With more soldiers in the city's tiger-shaped flag, they will be more flexible.
