"You can test the cannon when you are halfway through the sky!"
As soon as the front foot saw off the infantry, Cao Yuanzhao hurried back to the artillery camp, pointed at the nearly a hundred Xingtian in the sky and shouted loudly.
In Kumamoto Castle, some people gradually discovered the large "flying balls" floating in the air, and pointed at the sky and exclaimed. Waves of gongs and drums came from the distant city, and more Japanese soldiers came.
Holding firecrackers, they quickly gathered outside the camp...
"It's time..."
Cao Yuanzhao touched his chin, smiled slightly, and then turned to look at the messenger...
"Groups one to fifteen! Start bombarding according to their respective areas!! Let them all be alert! Whoever misses the target...it will be clear to me!!"
"yes!!"
After the ordering soldier performed a military salute, he immediately turned around and shouted loudly: "Groups 1 to 15 start bombarding!! The general has an order! If you hit, you will be rewarded! If you hit incorrectly, you will be punished!!"
"This is not what I meant..."
"Groups 1 to 15 start bombarding!!! The general has an order! If you hit, you will be rewarded! If you hit wrong, you will be punished!!"
"Groups 1 to 15 start bombarding——!!! The general has an order! If you hit, you will be rewarded! If you hit incorrectly, you will be punished!!"
"Oh... ball counting... at worst, I'll have to pay for it out of my own pocket!" Seeing the orders being passed on one after another, Cao Yuanzhao, who couldn't laugh or cry, had to accept his fate...
"boom--!!"
"boom--!!"
"boom--!!"
In an instant, the artillery camp was filled with smoke and hundreds of cannons fired! It took more than a hundred glycerin bombs to explode in the city a few seconds after the bombardment!
Zhao Zhangcheng, who was on the side, made readjustments based on the flight time of the shells, and quickly corrected the elevation angles of the three test guns. He only waited for Xingtian to fly almost halfway before pulling the rope in his hand!
Zhao Zhangcheng, who had made all preparations, looked at Cao Yuanzhao with a playful smile...
"General...if I hit the target with one strike...will there be a reward...?"
This sentence directly made Cao Yuanzhao, who looked depressed just now, even more depressed... So he shouted to him: "Reward! If you really hit the target with one hit! I will reward the captured princess to you as a concubine."
!!”
"real!??"
"Ha! Of course it's a lie!! The princess belongs to me! The princess's maid belongs to you!!" Cao Yuanzhao glanced at him angrily... Unexpectedly, this guy was actually quite happy! He immediately agreed loudly: "Okay!!
That’s okay!! Commander, you must keep your word!!” Bayi Chinese Website
"Why are you so shameless! Are you asking for a beating?!" Cao Yuanzhao was about to step forward and kick him, but the clever guy immediately turned his back and shouted: "General!! Xing Tianfei is here
It’s half done!! I’m going to test the cannon!!”
Cao Yuanzhao was stunned for a moment, looked up at Xingtian, and then at Zhao Chengzhang who had a smirk on his face, then waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Hit, hit, hit!! You can hit first and then talk!!"
"Just watch it!!"
Following this loud shout, Zhao Chengzhang pulled the breech!
If just now he was a little unsure about the distance and elevation angle, so he seemed submissive, then after the shelling of the previous fifteen groups of artillery, he had clearly measured the distance and adjusted it to the most accurate angle!
"Boom!" was the sound of the cannon! After the shell flew for three breaths, it hit the stone wall of the castle with great accuracy! Earth and rocks flew everywhere for a while! The warhead rolled down! And the whole castle was here too.
The cannon was shaken visibly to the naked eye!! Tiles were scattered on the ground!
"It's hit——!! It's hit——!! Hahaha!! General, you must keep your word!!" After Zhao Zhangcheng jumped for joy for a while, he shouted to the soldiers behind him without waiting for the general's reply: "
One foot three inches and seven minutes off the ground!! Calibration!!”
In an instant, the other artillerymen immediately adjusted their muzzles, but they were stopped again by Cao Yuanzhao shouting!
"Stop! No stimulation! Stop it all, general!!!"
For a moment, all the artillerymen were stunned again and looked at the general in confusion...
Zhao Zhangcheng's face was also full of doubts. He stepped forward with his hands raised and asked: "General... why did you stop? Aren't you going to blow up this castle?"
"Who said that this general wants to blow down this castle...?? This general...has he ever given you such an order!?" Cao Yuanzhao squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Zhangcheng, with a trace of sullenness on his face...
…
"If I want to destroy it, I can just ask you to load glycerin bombs and bombard the attic! How can I order you to bombard the stone wall!??"
"Then you..."
"I am going to make the people inside think that the city is about to collapse... so that they will come out!! You know nothing!! Go and calibrate the cannon! I will also shoot two rounds at the stone wall of the deputy pavilion!
!Remember!! Don’t really knock it down!! If the building collapses!! I will only ask you!!”
"Ah!?? So this is your plan!?? Then why didn't you tell me earlier..." Zhao Zhangcheng frowned and muttered in a low voice, then pointed to the soldier beside him...
"Pull out the steel nails!! Aim at the sub-loft next to you according to the elevation angle just now!"
"yes!!"
The soldier smiled bitterly and agreed. He quickly found the tools from the box and started to pick up the steel nails. However, he hit them too hard just now... It took him a long time to pick up the three steel nails...
During this period, Cao Yuanzhao did not leave Zhao Zhangcheng idle. He pointed at the main loft and shouted: "Give it two more rounds!! Remember!! Don't knock it down!!"
"Hey...yes..." Zhao Zhangcheng nodded in a long voice, with an impatient expression that made Cao Yuanzhao give him a kick in the butt, and then his hands and feet became more agile...
Open the cover, load the shells, load the exciter, close the cover, and pull the bolt! The movements are smooth and smooth, all done in one go!
In an instant, the whole castle swayed again, as if it was about to overturn in the next second!!
Just as Zhao Zhangcheng was holding out the third shell and preparing to load it, he heard someone behind him shouting: "It's out!! Someone is out inside!!!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Wenzhao quickly picked up his telescope and looked towards the back courtyard of the castle. Sure enough, an old man with gray hair on his temples and dressed in rich clothes was trotting away from the castle surrounded by a group of people... And their direction... was exactly the same.
Facing nearly a hundred Xingtian flying in the sky!!
The samurai guarding the old man drew out the samurai swords from their waists and planned to fight to the death. They had no way out... because the city under the castle had already been plunged into a sea of fire! Even the wooden bridge connecting to the city
It had already been burned to ashes in the fire!
Their only way to survive at this moment...is to break through the siege and escape into the mountains!
But how could the soldiers shooting guns on the sky and the infantry sliding down from the sky let them get what they wanted!? Soon... the first few aircraft to arrive lowered their altitude and put down the hemp ropes. At this moment, they had already
The infantrymen, who did not care about life and death, quickly eliminated this group of warriors under the leadership of Zu Dashou! They also blocked every exit from the back courtyard!
Soon, the battle between muskets and samurai swords came to an end...
Hundreds of extremely fierce warriors holding spears and knives rushed towards the soldiers of Shenji Camp, but they fell down at extremely fast speeds...
Because the bullets they faced... not only came from the ground, but more... came from the sky...
No matter how good your martial arts skills are... you are still afraid of kitchen knives!
What's more, there are "kitchen knives" flying all over the sky!!
After a burst of gunfire, the group of warriors who had practiced martial arts for many years fell in a pool of blood one after another, while the remaining warriors protected the old man and several women all the way to the side door to break through...
The person standing in front of them at this moment... was none other than... Yuan Chonghuan's former pioneer officer! Zu Dashou!!
But in this world...his identity is Cao Yuanzhao's "pioneer officer", Zu Dashou...
Although the official position has changed... the name has also changed... but the bloodiness and bravery in him have not changed at all!
After watching a row of shooting, the remaining warriors rushed forward with weapons in hand, while the soldiers around him were reloading! Zu Dashou pulled out the saber from his waist without hesitation and pointed at the five soldiers on the opposite side.
A Japanese man rushed forward!!
In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere! Limbs and arms were broken! Several warriors who rushed at the front were beheaded by Zu Dashou in almost an instant. One of them was killed, and two others were maimed! Then they were entangled with two warriors who were obviously not weak.
Fighting together...
When the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion saw this, their eyes immediately turned red. They dropped the ammunition bags in their hands, pulled out their bayonets, inserted their guns, and were about to go up and fight, but Zu Dashou shouted to stop them!
"Don't come here!! Keep loading!! These two people have great skills!!"
Several soldiers were stunned for a moment, then turned around quickly to pick up the ammunition packs and bullets and reload them... The soldiers who came from a distance were afraid that they would accidentally kill the opponent's king, so they had to run towards this place with their guns in hand, hoping to get closer.
Only when you are 100% sure of the distance can you fire to support...
During this period of time, Zu Dashou was always in a state of one vs. two...seeing that it was difficult for him to defeat four hands with his two fists, and he gradually fell into a disadvantage... Zu Dashou's left arm was slashed by the opponent, although it was not chopped.
It was broken, but the bones were still visible! But Zu Dashou still refused to retreat! He managed to maintain the deadlock!
Until the soldiers behind him suddenly shouted: "General, retreat quickly!! We are ready to reload!!"
At this time, Zu Dashou quickly made a feint, jumped up high... and shouted: "Shoot——!!!"
"Pah——!!"
"Pah——!!"
"Pah——!!"
Gunshots were everywhere, but the bullets were either barely dodged by the two men, or they were violently withdrawn with samurai swords...
At this moment, Zu Dashou, who was stranded in the air, saw that the soldiers approaching from a distance had begun to aim their guns, so he made a desperate move and threw the long knife in his hand towards one of them!
"Crack!!"
"Crack!!"
"Crack!!"
"Dang!"
"puff!!"
When the gunfire rang out again...the two samurai were struck back and forth by flying knives and bullets...and died on the spot!
And this extremely thrilling fight to the death...from the beginning to the end...only took less than a minute...
Everything... only happened between the lightning and flint! But Cao Yuanzhao on the high mountain saw everything clearly with his telescope...
"Well done!! I just found out today! It turns out that Fu Yu is so powerful!! I want to give him a big credit!!"
"Then...the credit of the lower official..."
"Don't worry! I always keep my word!" Cao Yuanzhao was in a good mood at the moment. He didn't even bother to get angry with Zhao Zhangcheng. He directly threw the telescope in his direction in his direction, waved his arm and shouted loudly: "Enter the city!
