Chapter 178 Breaking through the cottage
The effective range of direct shooting of the tiger squat cannon is only a few dozen steps, but the range of elevation angle is more than 200 steps.
The straight-line distance between the corner tower and the tiger squat cannon in the village is only about a hundred steps, and the diagonal distance is only more than one hundred steps, which just enters the range of the tiger squat cannon.
Several tiger squat cannons fired one after another, and iron beads that were densely packed into fan-like planes flew out.
Most of the iron beads were hit in the air and did not hit the corner tower, but a few iron beads still hit the archers on the corner tower, and some of the iron beads were shot into the wooden partitions of the corner tower, deeply embedded in them.
.
The archer who was hit by the iron bead let out a scream, and the inertia of the impact caused the archer to fall from the corner tower.
Fortunately... before the archer landed, the archer died, and there was less pain of falling to the ground.
After cleaning up a archer on the corner tower, Zheng Chao ordered: "All gunners bring tiger squat cannons and go to the corner tower on the left."
The tiger squat cannon weighing more than 30 pounds was grabbed by the gunner and lifted up the two claws of the gripping ground, hunched his back and trotted to the bottom of the corner tower on the left.
The muzzle was aimed at the archer above the corner tower, the loader loaded the gunpowder and iron beads, and the last gunner fired the tiger squat cannon.
Several tiger squat cannons shot at a corner tower at the same time, easily killing the archer above, and the body fell from the corner tower.
Erliangshan Dazhai has two corner towers and one tower. After the corner tower was solved, Zheng Chao ordered the tiger squat gunner to attack the bandits above the tower.
Before Zheng Chao could bring people over, all the bandits above the tower had already run down from the tower.
When the tiger squat cannon aimed at the tower, there was no one on it.
The bandits on the tower looked at what happened on the two corner towers before. The archers on the tower did not think they could escape the bombardment outside the cottage, so they naturally did not want to stay on the tower and seek death.
Liang Da behind the village wall did not make things difficult for the archer who came down from the tower.
The two archers who were killed and injured on the corner tower had already made him understand that the archers in the village did not threaten the cannons outside, and staying on the tower would be equivalent to the target of the cannon.
Hurry!
The entire village gate suddenly collapsed, an iron ball fell into the village, and two wooden village gates turned into broken wood, and the broken wood residue was shot down everywhere.
"No, the village gate is broken. Liang Dazhuan, you can't keep it here anymore. Go back to the house behind." Shi Yunhu pulled Liang Da and hurried to the house behind the village.
Many bandits from Erliangshan were broken at the village gate, and the boss fled, and they all fled in chaos.
As soon as the village gate was broken, the Folang machine cannon outside stopped firing.
Wang Yuncheng ordered: "The tiger squatted cannons guard the village gate, and only the bandits wanted to escape from the village gate and fire the cannons directly, and the musket team went to the village wall."
Two tiger squat cannons were moved to a place more than thirty steps in front of the village gate. The two tiger cannons were on the village gate, one left and one right, and the muzzles were all directly opposite the village gate.
There was no threat from the archer on the corner tower. Several wooden ladders were carried to the wall of the village, and the musketeer climbed up the wall of the village along the wooden ladder.
Soon, the village wall was filled with muskets, and they were standing high and fired muskets towards the bandits in the mountain village.
Liang Er and his men brought a bunch of stones to rush back from behind the mountain village.
As soon as he showed up, he saw that the gate of the village was gone. The original two wooden doors had turned into broken wood scattered on the ground, and he could see two cannons outside at a glance.
Seeing this, he reacted very quickly, turned around and retreated.
His appearance was naturally noticed by the musketeers on the village wall, and more than a dozen musketes immediately aimed at him.
The musket was fired, Liang Er turned over and rolled behind the stone pestle, and luckily avoided it. The bandits who followed him were not so lucky. They were directly hit by the musket, fell to the ground without any force, and struggled.
It took a few slight till it dies.
Liang Er wiped a cold sweat from his head. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been among the people who had just been hit by a musket.
"Second, the second leader, what should we do?" A bandit stuttered and asked Liang Er.
The parody has been broken. Although there are more than 400 bandits in Erliang Mountain, without the barriers of the parody, he is no match for the tiger flag at all.
Bang! Bang...
The sound of muskets sounded from time to time, accompanied by screams.
For the musketeers with the tiger flag, they were almost in danger when they stood in the mountain village and fired muskets at the bandits in the village. The bandits in the mountain village ran around like headless flies, and they were not at ease with fighting back.
Moreover, even if they want to fight back, they can't do it.
The musketeers who were in high places only had a few archers in the village who had the chance to shoot with arrows.
As soon as the village gate was broken, several archers from Erliangshan followed Liang Da, Shi Yunhu and others back to the house behind the village.
"I can't hold on anymore, Erliang Mountain is over." Liang Da looked desolate and sat on a wooden chair.
Shi Yunhu's face was also very ugly.
I thought that with the help of the tiger flag, the strength of Erliangshan and several other parishes could be weakened, giving him the opportunity to take over the entire Daliangshan.
What he did not expect was that the tiger flag was far stronger than he thought. The bird guns and cannons alone had already broken the strong village of Erliang Mountain.
After hesitating for a moment, he knew that he could not sit still and wait for death.
When he was still a Shi Dagu, he had harmed Liu Heng's life several times. With their relationship, if they really fell into Liu Heng's hands, there would be no chance of survival.
Thinking of this, he said to Liang Da next to him: "There are many brothers in the village. As long as you and my family join forces, even if the people who cannot retreat the tiger flag will have a chance to escape."
Hearing this, Liang Da's eyes had a light, he grabbed Shi Yunhu's wrist and said anxiously: "As long as he can survive, I will listen to you."
Shi Yunhu pulled his wrist out of Liang Da's hand and said, "Call all the brothers in the mountain village and rush out together. As long as we rush out of the mountain village and enter the forest, we will be safe."
"But..." Liang Da hesitated for a moment and said, "The village is surrounded by people with the tiger flag. The village walls are full of bird gunmen with the tiger flag. There are artillery outside the village gate. How can we rush out?"
He was not moved by Shi Yunhu's proposal, or he had no hope.
Shi Yunhu persuaded: "Just soak the quilt and cover it on the wooden board, you can block the bird gun, as for the cannon..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "The cannon loads slowly, so that others can rush forward. After the gap when the cannon is fired, we can take the opportunity to rush out."
Liang Da's eyes rolled, wondering whether Shi Yunhu's idea was feasible.
As for how many bandits were killed or injured in the village, he didn't care or care.
Shi Yunhu next to him urged: "Master Liang, don't hesitate. When all the people with the tiger flag enter the mountain village, it will be difficult for us to escape again."
"What should I do with the second child?" Liang Dayi frowned.
He can ignore the life or death of others, but Liang Er is his own brother.
Shi Yunhu said: "The second leader of Liang has a good fortune. Even if something really happens, as long as Liang Dazhuo, you will always have a chance to seek revenge on the tiger flag. If Liang Dazhuo, you are dead, who can
Avenge Liang Er’s head of the family.”
Hearing this, Liang Da hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let me listen to you, and now I'll call people to rush out."
"Wait a minute." Shi Yunhu suddenly raised his hand and stopped Liang Da.
