Iron Dynasty

Bang bang bang...

A series of flames and white smoke erupted from the battleship, and after a burst of gunfire, a few screams suddenly came from the city wall of Pengzhou.

Lu Fei had been observing the city wall, and regretfully said at this time: I almost hit it, hey, just a few soldiers died, hurry up and reload.

Upon receiving the order, the soldiers immediately took out Minet shells and gunpowder to reload.

They have been training since Xiao Ming sent these muskets to the Qingzhou camp. Compared with the previous muskets, the range and accuracy of these muskets have been greatly improved.

But despite this, the hit rate of shooting a target at a distance of 100 meters is still very low, which is why Lu Fei asked 60 to shoot at the target at the same time.

While the soldiers were reloading, there was a sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling on the city wall. This round of shooting immediately caused eight soldiers to fall down on the city wall. Three of the soldiers were shot in the head and died on the spot, and blood flowed out along the bullet holes.

Two of them were hit in the ribs, and they were lying on the ground crying. The other three were hit in the arms, and the bullets penetrated into the flesh. The pain also made them cry incessantly.

The other soldiers felt like they had seen a ghost. They were confused at first, and then became afraid. This seemed too strange to them. Even if the people of Pengzhou were sturdy, these soldiers could not help trembling in their hearts. This method of death is really Too scary.

Compared to these soldiers, it was Mi Wenyi and Mi Kuang who were more afraid. The soldiers' tragic appearance made them pale, and Mi Wenyi knew very well that this round of musket salvo was aimed at him and Mi Kuang.

Mi Changshi, what's going on? Mi Kuang's whole body trembled uncontrollably. Unlike Mi Wenyi, who had seen muskets, Mi Kuang had been in Pengzhou City for many years, but he had never seen muskets and artillery.

Mi Wenyi didn't have time to explain to Mi Kuang now, he hid directly behind the battlements and didn't dare to show himself, he shouted: Squat down, do you want to die? This is the musket of the Qingzhou Army, damn, what is the range of these muskets? It will be so far away, and King Qi must have deceived us.

Mi Kuang's face was getting paler. Pengzhou City had been at ease for too long, and these soldiers had suppressed the rebellion of some people on weekdays, so how could they ever face a real war.

The tragic death of the soldiers shocked the other soldiers as well as him.

What should we do? Are we hiding here all the time? Mi Kuang said.

Just as the two were talking, another burst of gunshots sounded, and nine more soldiers were shot. For a while, the soldiers above the city were completely terrified, and they all squatted down following Mi Wenyi and Mi Kuang.

It's just the beginning of what really scares them.

Boom boom... After the second round of shooting, the Qingzhou battleship lost its harmless camouflage. At this time, one square cover was lifted from one side of the battleship, and these covers came to cover the muzzle.

When these wooden lids were lifted, a black muzzle stretched out and aimed at the approaching Pengzhou navy.

When the Pengzhou Navy entered only fifty meters away from the battleship, the thick fire and white smoke obscured the battleship, and the projectile shot straight at the Pengzhou Navy battleship in the river.

Boom, boom, boom...

The cannonball penetrated the hull of the warship, mixed with wood fragments and flew to the boatmen in the cabin, and suddenly continuous screams sounded in the cabin.

The boatman who was rocking the oar had never seen such a scene before, and was so frightened that he dropped the oar and ran to the deck screaming.

It's just that the tragic situation on the warship is even worse than below. At this time, there are mutilated corpses on the deck of the warship. The soldiers are holding their broken legs and screaming incessantly, and blood is flowing freely on the deck.

The soldiers who had not yet reacted from the roar were shrouded in death, and most of the soldiers were frightened and dumbfounded, and there was only one thought in their minds - what the hell is this.

But they were not allowed to think, and soon there was another explosion. This time, a black cloud rushed towards them like lightning in their eyes. It was only when they got close that they could see that they were small round beads.

And these black round beads also became the last sight in the eyes of many soldiers, and then their bodies were penetrated.

There were many screams on the river, and the river was quickly dyed red with blood. The frightened soldiers jumped into the river and fled. At this moment, they no longer had the will to fight.

The generals of the Lu family who led the Pengzhou navy were even more unbearable. When the warships in front were bombarded with wood chips, they retreated in a panic.

The soldiers on the city wall were even more frightened by the scene in front of them. This time they finally understood what a musket was and what an artillery was.

How do you fight this battle?

A general's eyes are full of despair, no matter how brave his soldiers are, the killing of soldiers who can't reach the other side is enough to make them lose their will to fight.

The soldiers of Pengzhou City, listen, His Royal Highness King Qi has ordered that no one who surrenders will be killed, and once the army enters the city, the people in the city can share the good land like the people of Qingzhou. Soldiers, do you still want to be killed by these Pengzhou Are the wealthy clans in the city bullying and oppressing?

Suddenly, a high voice was uploaded from the river to the city wall.

When Mi Wenyi and Mi Kuang heard the words, a trace of hatred flashed in their eyes, and now they were more aware of what would happen if Pengzhou City fell.

As for the children of the big clan in the city, as long as you are willing to surrender, Your Highness will spare you the same. As long as you disband the trilogy and return the people's land, Your Highness is merciful and allows you to continue living in the city. Otherwise, after the city is broken, all the children of the noble clan will be killed. amnesty.

Lu Fei's voice sounded again.

After these two sentences, some soldiers from poor people's homes looked at each other. The story of Qingzhou had already spread here. Although the local nobles slandered King Qi, they understood that King Qi was very kind to the people.

Unlike these poor soldiers, the children of the wealthy family are in a complicated mood, and now they are in a dilemma.

Don't believe their nonsense, King Qi is a despicable villain. They are deceiving you. If Pengzhou City is lost, you will lose your land, wives, soldiers, we must block the enemy's attack today.

Mi Wenyi shouted loudly.

Mi Kuang shouted at the same time: Today, all the soldiers will fight with me to the death. If anyone dares to take a half step back, I will kill him.

The soldiers fell into silence when they heard the voices of the two, and they exchanged glances without knowing what they were thinking.

Above the river, Lu Fei loudly announced Xiao Ming's policy on Pengzhou City and ordered the battleship to stop on the north bank of the Bian River. His purpose was to defeat the Pengzhou Navy, and now he can easily do it.

The rest is to wait for Luo Xin and Luo Hong to lead most of them to formally attack the city.
