The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 848 Maxim Heavy Machine Gun and Mortar (Part [-])
Not long after, scattered soldiers and civilians rushed towards Luo Huan and Li Tianming's ambush circle.

Li Tianming said to Luo Huan: "I'll leave these people to you. We'll do it when the big troops come up."

After Luo Huan glared at Li Tianming, he ordered the armor-piercing army to form three echelons and began shooting at the soldiers and civilians who rushed over.

Although the reloading speed of this front-loading musket was very slow, fortunately, the three echelons took turns to go into battle.Coupled with the cooperation of grenades from time to time, those scattered small groups of soldiers and civilians really didn't dare to charge forward.

But as time went by, more and more people rushed out.In the end, it has reached the scale of tens of thousands.

"This time it's your turn. With so many people rushing out, our musket-loading muskets are too late. It's better to let your secret weapon move and show me Luo Huan." Luo Huan said to Li Tianming .

A sinister smile appeared on the corner of Li Tianming's mouth, and then he directly gave the order to attack.It was not the three Maxim heavy machine guns that launched the attack first, but the three 60mm mortars.

The shells fired by this row of machine guns are different from those fired by the red cannons.The lethality caused is even stronger.

Only six shells were fired, and hundreds of Xiliang soldiers and civilians were blown to pieces.This involuntarily cheered Luo Huan up.

He stepped forward and reached out to pick up a cannonball, and then threw it into the barrel of the 60 mortar according to the method of the Xingxiu Dark Guard.

Immediately, the 60mm mortar shell drew a beautiful arc in the sky.Then he fell into the crowd of soldiers and civilians in Xiliang.

With a huge explosion, more than a dozen soldiers and civilians were blown into the air.Luo Huan said excitedly: "There are such convenient and quick things to use, but those heavy red cannons must be used. I really don't know what the lord thinks."

At this moment, Li Tianming had ordered three Maxim heavy machine guns to fire.The distribution of these three Maxim heavy machine guns is arranged in an inverted triangle.

Two Maxim heavy machine guns, one on the left and one on the right, moved slightly forward, forming a crossfire in front.The Maxim heavy machine gun in the middle is slightly behind and is responsible for fanning forward.

Such a combination can be said to be close to perfection. Some of the Xiliang soldiers and civilians who rushed to the front were directly interrupted by the middle.

For a moment, a dead zone was formed ahead, and no one dared to take a step forward.Because as long as they step into this area, they will be greeted with smashed bones.

This time Luo Huan was even more shocked. He didn't expect that the three Maxim heavy machine guns had such amazing lethality.

Immediately, Luo Huan picked up a bullet, looked at it carefully, and said to himself: "If the musket in our hand can also be equipped with this kind of bullet, then the speed of reloading will be greatly improved."

……

"Master General, the front has been blocked by the Tang army. I don't know what kind of weapons they are using, our army can't pass through at all. Now there are already 2 people lost there." The deputy general said in front of Duan Jiuzheng.

After hearing the news, Duan Jiuzheng collapsed on the horse.After a long time, he said: "You must find a way to break out immediately, and you must let the Generalissimo know about the new weapons owned by Tang Jun."

After the deputy general nodded, he said to Duan Jiuzheng, "Master Chief, you should go with your subordinates. With the flying claw in your hands, it shouldn't be a problem to take Master Chief to climb over the cliff."

It turns out that whether it is Jiepai Pass or Jinxia Pass, even the last Jietian Pass.All built in the Three Gorges.Therefore, it has always been a dangerous pass that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

However, this also has another disadvantage, that is, once the entrance and exit sides are blocked, the defenders will become a turtle in a urn.

"You hurry up, the most important thing now is to let the Generalissimo know all this. The life and death of this general is nothing." Duan Jiuzheng pushed the lieutenant hard.

Then he picked up his big knife, fought the horse with both feet, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, the retreat route has been blocked by the Tang army."

"Now we have no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the earth. Even if there are deaths on the left and right, let us die with dignity."

"If you feel that you are a man, you will fight back with this general. Even if you can't take back Tianguan, it won't make Tang Jun feel better."

After finishing speaking, he took the lead and killed the street official back.Things have come to this point, fear of death is no longer helpful.So Xiliang's soldiers and civilians finally decided to fight the trapped beast.

Even if he has no hope of life in the end, he still has to bite Tang Jun hard before he dies.You can't take Tang Jun's life, but also see Tang Jun's blood.

Seeing Duan Jiuzheng rushing back towards Jietianguan madly, the deputy general gritted his teeth, turned and left.

……

"Why didn't they charge forward, and went back to kill them again. Don't they know? Is Jietian Pass no longer holdable?" Li Tianming said to himself.

"In other words, I would have killed them back. Your place is much more terrifying than Jietianguan." Luo Huan pointed to the mountain of corpses in front of him, and said to Li Tianming.

"Don't tell me, the Maxim heavy machine gun His Highness gave us is really useful. With three Maxim heavy machine guns, it can stop tens of thousands of defeated Xiliang troops." Li Tianming said with a smile on his face.

"You don't want to show off there, kid. I will definitely ask the lord for some support after I return to Youzhou. I won't save you from showing off in front of me in the future." Luo Huan said to Li Tianming.

"Don't tell me I almost forgot, my lord specifically told me to tell Luo you. You must keep the brothers of the armor-piercing army tight-lipped, and you must not leak any news about the Maxim heavy machine gun and mortar." Li Tianming said solemnly. Said to Luo Huan.

"This is at the bottom of the lord's house, so how can it be known by others casually. No wonder the lord is not hiding the red cannons and grenades anymore. It turns out that there are new weapons." Luo Huan said.

……

Seeing Xiliang soldiers going back and forth, Qin Huaiyu and the others were overjoyed.So they urged the troops under their command to start killing in the direction of Xiliang soldiers.

At the same time, countless grenades were thrown out first.With every grenade explosion, a dozen people were sent flying into the air.

It stands to reason that the power of the black powder grenade should not be that great.But who made the formation of Xiliang soldiers too dense?
Seeing his brothers being blown up non-stop, Duan Jiuzheng shouted heart-piercingly: "Rush up, rush up, don't keep a distance from them. As long as the brothers fight hand-to-hand with Tang Jun, their weird weapons will be destroyed." unusable."

While shouting, Duan Jiuzheng urged his horse to kill Qin Huaiyu.However, [-]% of the time was Qin Huaiyu's opponent. After only two rounds, Qin Huaiyu hit him with a mace and knocked him down.And he shot back, ending [-]% of his life.

　Dragon Soul's new book "Da Tang: From Generalissimo to Emperor" has started to be officially serialized, and I hope you can turn to support it.
