Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

"artillery!"

Mrs. Xing saw that the retreating Qing army had reached the firing range of her own artillery, and she immediately shouted:

"Follow the shooting principles and take turns to fire!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Rounds of artillery roared one after another.

First, the Tiger Crouching Cannon with a short range was the first to roar!

The artillery shells were in the shape of a large curvature parabola, rushing high into the sky, but then viciously smashed into the Qing army at the moat.

Although the power of each shell is very small, it is almost the same as a grenade!

One after another, the Qing army was blown up by artillery shells.

The Qing army, which had already suffered heavy casualties, became increasingly sparse.

Although this kind of small-caliber artillery with direct fire cannot hit the base of the city.

However, it is possible to shoot along the moat.

This is a close combat support artillery.

This is the originator of mortars in the world!

It would be more than 100 or nearly 200 years before the West had the same type of artillery.

Mortars were widely equipped in the West, and trench warfare was brought to its extreme during World War I.

As early as the Jiajing period, the squatting tiger cannon had become the most common support weapon of the Ming army.

As for the trenches, it was earlier.

The time when China used trenches has long been impossible to verify.

I don't know how many years ago, whenever the army set up camp, they would build trenches.

It is in this context that the Tiger Crouching Cannon was born.

After all, only deflection weapons can throw artillery shells into trenches and behind fences...

This point, except for the unconscionable impact point of the projectile, cannot be achieved by any artillery!

As for being heartless...

The name of this thing says it all.

Although the power of being heartless is great, when you use it to kill the enemy, you are risking your life!

Yes, risk your life!

If you're not lucky, this thing will probably fly in the opposite direction and blow up your boss...

To put it bluntly, being heartless is a last resort.

With this thing, you have to worry about whether the bullet point will fly to your head, and you also have to worry about whether the barrel will explode...

If you are really rich, who would use this thing?

After the Bi Maokang brothers improved their lack of conscience, General Bi's artillery became a heavy artillery!

Thickening the bore wall and lengthening the barrel are already in the category of heavy artillery.

Although the range does not meet the requirements of heavy artillery.

But this is the seventeenth century!

The wooden battleships of this era, the general cannon...

All I can say is - one shot kills a kid...

In fact, if Bi Maokang's improvement continues to extend the barrel, it will become a fortress cannon.

This is a weapon for the defense!

The Wangfuzhou Artillery Factory laboratory already has samples.

The range has reached a terrifying ten miles!

If the heavy artillery is mounted on the train, it will be a weapon for attack!

Today, there are more than 20 train guns on the Handu Railway Line.

Coupled with the correction of the impact point of the hot air balloon, Handu's defense has become terrifying!

What's even more terrifying is that the Bi Maokang brothers' second improvement has turned Bi's general cannon into a rear-mounted fixed cannon!

That is General Bi's second form!

Xing also has some Bi General cannons in his hands.

After all, since Zhu Youjian took in Gao Jie's remaining troops, he would treat them equally.

The world of the Han family is already full of disasters, and Zhu Youjian is unwilling to give up every ounce of his strength.

This is a world of great contention!

Preserving the power of the Han family and seeking more living soil for the Chinese people is the meaning of Zhu Youjian, a time traveler.

The Xing family will naturally not be short of weapons.

In fact, the Xing family had already placed General Bi's artillery at the top of the city!

however……

But it is no longer useful.

The Qing army has been defeated.

The remaining Qing troops were fleeing like crazy.

There were even weapons abandoned by the Qing army everywhere.

Under the overwhelming bombardment of grenades, the Qing army was frightened.

In fact, many people have knelt down to ask for surrender, and have no idea of ​​​​escape...

Mr. Xing no longer had the intention to use the weapon at the bottom of the box.

After all, once Dorgon is firmly established in Yangzhou, Xuzhou, where she is located, will become the frontline battlefield in the future.

The more trump cards you have, the greater your military exploits will be in the future!

The situation in front of me was just right with the Crouching Tiger Cannon.

This is the king of short-range artillery among the dozens of standard artillery pieces of the Ming Army.

The Tiger Crouching Cannon weighs 36 pounds and is two feet long.

The light weight and short barrel make it maneuverable and flexible enough.

The gun body has seven hoops, which are not only to enhance the strength of the gun barrel, but also to adjust the range of the gun.

On the Tiger Crouching Cannon, there is a movable bracket shaped like a tiger claw.

When you want to shoot at close range, you only need to move the bracket backward and clamp it on the gun hoop to raise the muzzle, so that the projectile fired straight away will land closer.

Although the maximum shooting distance of this thing is only about 500 meters.

However, because of its lightness and its ability to ignore the obstruction of city walls and trenches, the Tiger Crouching Cannon was deeply loved by the Ming army.

Not only does this thing have a wide range of application scenarios, it can also be used in mountains, forests, and field ridges!

This is an all-terrain gun.

This kind of gun was called a grenade in later generations.

Everyone who has read the records of the Anti-Japanese War knows how useful grenades are.

\"Madam, stand firm, but don't miss the mark!\"

Xiaohong's face turned pale with fright, and her jade hands tightly grasped the corners of Mrs. Xing's clothes.

On the other side, two female soldiers also held Mrs. Xing's legs to prevent her from falling under the city.

Mrs.

"Little Red!"

Mrs. Xing jumped off the parapet and said to Xiao Hong, the captain of her own army:

"Turning around the city with my general's flag to cheer for the brothers!"

"Order!"

Female soldier Xiao Hong holds her fists and accepts the order.

She took a small flag of personal guards and held the general flag with the word "Xing" and began to patrol the top of the city.

Where the general's flag is, that is where the military's morale lies.

This is the concentration of the military soul of the entire army.

The general's flag is the people's heart.

If the flag does not fall, the fight will continue to the death!

The banner with the word "Xing" raised high can be seen by everyone as long as they raise their heads.

The Ming army, which was chasing madly, seemed to have a fire rising in its chest!

General, watching them from the top of the city!

Kill it!

Seeing that all the arrangements were in place, Mrs. Xing nodded.

With a smile on her lips, she walked up to the city gate with a few female soldiers as escorts.

In the corridor on the second floor of the city gate building, more than a dozen large drums as tall as one person were set up in the empty corridor.

A dozen drummers with thick waists and round arms took off their shirts in the severe cold and were sweating like rain!

The muscular arm used the drumstick to hit the drum head fiercely.

The cowhide drum vibrates:

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The artillery mounted at the highest point began to roar.

The gunner was so busy that his feet never touched the ground.

One after another, artillery shells were stuffed into the barrel and blasted in the direction where the Qing army gathered!

Mrs. Xing walked into the city gate building without stopping, followed the internal spiral staircase, and reached the attic on the third floor.
