Baima Port

The mist faded away, the sun shining brightly, and the situation in front of you was fully visible.

Outside the city was the Hu *** army, with a solemn array and strict military discipline. The entire army was not terrible, and it exuded a captivating military aura.

In the middle of the army, a big flag was erected high, Huerbo rode on his horse, looking at him

At a glance, you can see the defensive wall of Baima Port that the Dacheng flag fluttered in the wind, and an army appeared above the wall, arranged neatly.

Looking at the team on the city wall, Huerbo's face became slightly solemn. Dachengjun surprised him and thought to himself: "This Dachengjun has some strength!"

However, the walls of the port are not big cities. Even if the canals are dug temporarily and repaired, the root of this cannot be changed.

Huerbo looked into the distance, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It was time to test it first. Thinking of this, Huerbo gave a few instructions in grassland.

For a moment, the horn sounded.

The Hu people did not set up camp and did not use lunch first, so they couldn't wait to come to attack the city to test.

From a distance, I saw Hu ***jun unveiling about twenty shield chariots.

The so-called shield cart is a mountable bow and arrow with thick wooden boards and a ladder that can be used to support the wall. This is a common siege tool for the Han people in this world, and they don’t want to be learned by the Hu people.

Although this shield mount is not high, the port city wall is not high and can be driven up.

There are hundreds of unicycle cars behind, full of soil, used to fill ditches, which look like Han people.

This total size is a team of thousands of people.

Come slowly, the defenders on the city hold their breath and concentrate, waiting for the order.

At this time, three rows of muskets loaded their ammunition in the city, waiting, and the commanders held flags, each flag was in charge of a team of shooting.

At this moment, the sound of intense war drums came from the Hu army. The Hu army under the city shouted together, pushed the shield to chariot, and charged forward.

"Stay calm, open fire when you have the order!" The supervisor shouted back and forth on the city wall.

At this time, someone ordered another order: "Raising a gun!"

With a command, the musketman raked towards the wall, aiming at the dark muzzle below.

The musketeers only have paper armor on their bodies. The reason is very simple. Navy generally cannot wear iron armor. Once they fall into the water, dozens of kilograms of iron can make the best sailors sink suddenly.

But now that we are on land, this is very dangerous.

The Hu people who were pushing the shield chariot shouted together and rushed into fifty steps. At this time, the drum sounded. When the drum sounded, the commander waved the flag in unison and shouted: "Shoot!"

"Boom boom boom!" The musket sprayed a large amount of fire and smoke.

"Shoot again!" The second batch was shooting again, and the city was filled with smoke.

"Three shots!" The last row shot violently at the bottom. At this time, the smoke couldn't even see clearly, so I had to wait for a while. Of course, the musketeer retreated and quickly loaded the ammunition.

The thick smoke dissipated, and everyone looked up, and couldn't help but feel disappointed. They saw that more than twenty of them were knocked over to the ground at a distance of forty steps, and they were covered in blood and could not die for a while, but just rolled on the ground and screaming loudly.

The current Dacheng musket can break cotton armor within forty steps, but the shield cart has thick wooden boards to protect it, so the Hu Jun was not very damaged.

Most shield cars still rushed over quickly.

Zheng Pingyuan's face was cold: "Continue shooting!"

When you get to the city, due to angle problems, you naturally cannot rely on this wooden board, especially when climbing, there is definitely no obstacle.

"Cheer!" Someone immediately ordered the order, and there was a loud bang.

Almost at the same time, when approaching twenty steps, a group of Hu people pulled their bows away behind the shield cart, and a "buzzing" sounded, and a group of long arrows shot towards the merceration.

"Ah!" The Hu man's arrow was extremely powerful, accurate and ruthless. He heard screams repeatedly, and more than a dozen muskets fell to the ground at the city wall, rolling.

"shoot!"

"Baopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopa

This time, amid the roar of muskets, the Hu people in front lost their block, were knocked over to the ground, rolled on the ground, screaming loudly.

"Boom boom boom boom!" The war drums were high, and the two sides shot at each other on the city and screamed and groaned from time to time. After a while, the Han people's cart was driven up, and a large number of small cars were directly tilted into the canal, filling a section of trench. Then on the shield cart, a simple long ladder leaned towards the top of the city. The Hu warrior bit his knife and climbed up.

A shout: "Cum!".

"Papapapapapapapapapapapapa!" The sound and smoke kept rising, and immediately there was a scream. It fell to the ground, rolling back and forth on the ground, making a howl.

In just this moment, all the Hu people who climbed the ladder fell down.

"A archers can't shoot twenty shots a day, and it's even harder to shoot ten rounds in a row on the battlefield." Zheng Pingyuan looked coldly. He was a man who had been through a long battle formation and immediately understood.

In terms of distance, archers are better than muskets, and even more powerful. However, archers have several characteristics. First, the cost of archers is that archers are more expensive than muskets. It takes three years for a genuine archer to take, while muskets only take three days.

Secondly, it is difficult to train archers, which often takes several years and also requires arm strength very much. The Hu people have been shooting since childhood, and there is no problem with archery skills, but they are also limited by arm strength.

In just a few rounds, the archery that suppressed the city was greatly reduced, which was not threatening enough, and it was impossible to shoot archery when climbing the city.

Therefore, the early confrontation was removed, and the musket quickly showed its advantages. It did not require arm strength to fire the musket at all. As long as it could be ignited, the musket soldiers died, and as long as they were trained, they would continue to shoot continuously.

"Baoba!" The smoke filled the air, and another group of Hu people fell down.

"There are quite casualties!" Huerbo looked at the city wall under the heavy escort of the armored soldiers, his original smile gradually subsided and he frowned.

As the battle continued, although there were still a steady stream of Hu soldiers climbing up on the ladder, as the angles were different, the Hu soldiers who lost their blockage faced with the waves of shooting, the suppression of bows and arrows quickly decreased, and the firepower on the city continued to increase.

For a moment, the city was covered with corpses of Hu soldiers covered with blood caves, and blood was everywhere. Some Hu soldiers who were not dead were screaming loudly.

After a while, the Hu soldiers under the city had their bow and archers and their arrows were skewed and weak. However, even so, the Hu soldiers driven forward still struggled to move forward, unable to stop the Hu people from charging at all.

"Hu Bing is strong, it's a strong enemy!" Zheng Pingyuan, who looked at this scene from afar, thought to himself, looking at Lu Suhai, who also looked solemn.

I have seen many enemies on the battlefield. It is rare to have such strong soldiers, but they are still shooting in batches."

"Governor Lu, it seems that although this musket is not good at fighting on the front of the land, it is extraordinary to guard the wall." Zheng Pingyuan said with emotion.

Lu Suhai nodded: "It's true."

"Baopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopaopao!" The gunshots were row after row, and the paper tube ammunition was fired in three groups, making the firing speed extremely fast and there was almost no gap.

Three rows of shooting down, covered with thick white smoke in the city, and hundreds of people rolling and screaming. Some were beaten to death on the spot, and some were not dead, but were just screaming in blood.

Seeing this, the morale of the Hu people finally became chaotic. In just one moment, more than 300 people were killed or injured in battle, which was a heavy blow to a team of thousands.

At this time, the distance from the original formation came the Jin to withdraw the troops.

Hearing this gold medal, Hu Bing suddenly collapsed his fighting spirit and could not resist the fear in his heart. He jumped off the ladder, not even pushing the shield to mount the car, and went back in a mess, leaving only corpses and equipment all over the ground.

However, they are defeated but not in chaos, and they are orderly.

Watching Hu Jun escape, there was a cheer in the city!

After a moment, the Central Military Office, the shameless commander knelt in front of Huerbo and apologized.

Huerbo had no expression on his face, and the generals around him were silent and did not dare to move.

After a moment, Huerbo said, "Take thirty whips!"

"Yes!" Suddenly, a man with a marching law whip at the commander of the thousand men, whipping bloodily. The commander of the thousand men endured it, and listened to the whip falling down without saying a word.

After the fight was finished, Huerbo asked, "What do you have to say?"

The commander endured the pain and knelt on the ground and said, "Your Highness, the firearms in the Han army are sharp. Within twenty steps, even if they are wearing heavy armor, they can still pass through them."

"Our bows and arrows are not inferior to them, but it is difficult to shoot continuously under the city, so there are heavy casualties."

At this time, a general coughed and said, "Your Highness, I was watching the battle just now. This is true. This firearm is so sharp that we cannot fill it with our warriors."

This will ponder and say: "The army of the South is a hero among the Han people. It is different from others and it is difficult to use fraud and surrender. In my opinion, the old methods must be used."

"I have heard of this firearm. All of them need ammunition. How much ammunition is there in Baima Port? If you use the old method, use the ammunition from the Han army, and we warriors can easily break the city."

"As long as there are no firearms, even if there are tens of thousands of Han troops, so what if our cavalry has no opponents on the plains, and tens of thousands of cavalry can break out of 10,000 Han people!"

The person who spoke was Li Mu. There were several generals on the grassland. They were originally relatives of the Khan. They were transferred from the Khan to the fourth prince a while ago, and were very respected by Huerbo.

After hearing what Li Mu said, everyone felt it was reasonable, and suddenly he pondered.

Seeing Huerbo hesitating, Li Mu said again: "The relationship between Baima Port is important and you must not give up. But if it depends entirely on our warriors to attack the city, how many people will be sacrificed? Too much sacrifice will shake our roots!"

At this time, everyone around was silent and looked at Huerbo.

Huerbo's eyes lit up. There were countless warriors who could fight, but not many smart generals. Li Mudan said this in front of him, which is the talent of a wise and brave general who can stand alone in the future.
