Chapter 883: Flat push


? "Shoot, shoot!"
  
   Yao Hongtao shouted hoarsely on the city wall. The soldiers of the Parliament held flintlocks and fired at the trenches, but the helpless precision of the smoothbore flintlocks made it difficult for them to suppress the royal soldiers who used breech rifles in the trenches.
  
  The council soldiers on the city wall kept falling in a pool of blood, but the soldiers under the city rarely suffered casualties.
  
   This is just the beginning. During the shooting of the royal soldiers, shells rose from the trench and fell on the wall in a parabolic shape.
  
   These shells are mainly divided into two types, one type explodes directly on the ground, and the other type turns into white powder smoke.
  
   No matter what kind of shells, this caused a lot of casualties to the council soldiers on the wall. Under the fierce fire, the soldiers were suppressed and couldn't raise their heads.
  
   At the same time, the artillery of the royal army began to fire back at the artillery on the city gate. In just a while, all the ten artillery pieces on the east wall were destroyed by shells that the royal army could explode.
  
   Yao Hongtao commanded in a panic, now he has lost his composure.
  
   Outside the city, Lu Fei looked at the effect of the offensive with satisfaction. They could only use artillery to bombard things like the opposite city wall until they completely destroyed the city wall and the city gate.
  
   "The current war is still about artillery." Lu Fei said with emotion.
  
   Guo Ming said: "Nevertheless, if the opponent has a rifle with the same range, our artillery is in danger."
  
   Lu Fei nodded, he looked at the soldiers shooting in the trench.
  
   Now the soldiers don’t need to use complicated procedures to load the ammunition. They only need to take out a paper shell bullet from the armed belt and insert it into the breech, then close the shooting.
  
  Moreover, their movements do not have to remain rigid before, and they can flexibly dodge and shoot in the trenches with their rifles.
  
   Although the suppression of artillery turned Songzhou City into a sea of ​​flames, the rifle that killed the soldiers the most.
  
   "Hey, this Falcon rifle is amazing. This is the sixth one." Lu Fei, a soldier, couldn't help yelling excitedly as he walked by.
  
   The companion beside him was also pleasantly surprised: "I am the fifth one, and I will catch up with you soon."
  
After   , he raised his rifle and aimed it at an exposed council soldier on the wall.
  
   Pulled the trigger, the soldier fell down at the sound of a gunshot.
  
   Lu Fei smiled, and he said loudly: "Yes, lads, if you don't want to spend the night in the trench tonight, take down Songjiang Castle."
  
   The two did not notice Lu Fei's arrival at all. After realizing that it was their army commander, the two immediately saluted and shouted "Yes."
  
   The short body continued to walk through the trench. Lu Fei and Guo Ming arrived at a slightly spacious place in the trench, where the mortar soldiers were constantly shooting at the city gate.
  
   The flames mixed with white lime powder on the city wall are like the same ink painting, but behind the coquettish beauty are the limbs of the parliament soldiers who were blown up and blood donations.
  
   Just as the two of them were about to stop for a rest, a "swish" suddenly sounded, and a black solid bullet hit the soil above their heads firmly.
  
   Dust splashed, and Lu Fei and Guo Ming's bodies were covered with dust.
  
   "These puppies!" Lu Fei cursed, and he said to the mortar soldier: "Fight hard, don't be afraid of wasting shells, if you shoot Jiangnan, we will have money!"
  
   "Yes, General." The soldiers responded. They stuffed the cannonball into the mortar and adjusted the angle. A cannonball was directed at the artillery fired just now.
  
Different from the direct-fired gun, the mortar gun’s parabolic shooting feature allows the cannonballs to bypass obstacles and attack the soldiers behind. With a violent explosion, several soldiers in the city head into the air, and even the soldiers’ clothes were torn by the shock wave. .
  
   Lu Fei looked at this scene, his eyes flickering.
  
   In fact, for the generals in the army, this war is a united war from north to south. After all, the influence of the royal family in Jiangnan is very weak.
  
   Whether it is the rise of the king of Chu or the merchant council, their fundamental willingness is that the people only know the king but not the royal.
  
   Faced with this situation, they can only reunify by force. Both the merchant council and the wealthy are a minority, and most of the people still want to live a good life.
  
   At the same time as the war, the secret guard’s propaganda team has entered the south of the Yangtze River. They will describe to the people the bustling scene of the north.
  
   "What do these merchants do, aren't the merchants in Qingzhou very free? What else do they want!" Guo Ming said with some emotion.
  
"Right!" Lu Fei looked at Songjiang City. "What he is doing now is only for his own personal gain. For this reason, he will not hesitate to sell his interests to Western countries. If his conspiracy is really achieved, Jiangnan will be completely reduced in the future. Colonies of Western countries."
  
   Guo Ming nodded, "Jiangnan belongs to the country of Da Yu, no one can take it."
  
   When the two were talking, there was a "bang" suddenly, and the front wall collapsed under the fierce attack of artillery.
  
   Gray smoke and dust accompanied the collapsed city wall, covering the entire battlefield.
  
   Lu Fei raised his spirit, and he said, "Blow the trumpet."
  
   As soon as his voice fell, the melodious charge horn sounded.
  
  The soldiers in the trench crawled out of the trench one after another, shouting, "Go!"
  
   Suddenly, densely packed soldiers rushed towards the collapsed city wall in a skirmish line.
  
   Under the fierce firepower of the tiger army, the parliamentary army had long been beaten and couldn't find it. Now the high rushing sound like the sound of the devil has broken many soldiers.
  
   Yao Hongtao was full of dust, his forehead was hit by gravel and was bleeding, but now he can no longer take care of so much. Looking at the royal soldiers who are constantly pouring into the city, he shouted: "Finalize, stop!"
  
   There were also prepared council soldiers under the city wall. They rushed to the collapsed city wall and stood in three rows behind the city wall ~EbookFREE.me~ and aimed their flintlocks at the gap.
  
   Tiger Ben soldiers saw this scene and immediately crawled into the debris of the collapsed city wall, raised their rifles, and they shot violently at the parliamentary army in a dense formation.
  
  Because of the sufficient accuracy, the Huben soldiers holding the Falcon rifle can achieve the effect of a dense formation even if they are not in a dense formation, but the Parliamentary Army obviously did not think of this.
  
   They waited for the royal soldiers to rush over, but only bullets greeted them.
  
  In an instant, the assembly soldiers in the dense formation were shot down by the tiger soldiers and fell one after another. Finally, in hysterics, they completely collapsed.
  
   There was a trace of despair in Yao Hongtao's eyes. Now he finally understood the gap between the two armies. From the beginning, they were doomed to lose.
  
   Looking at the royal soldiers pouring into the city, Yao Hongtao smiled miserably. In his eyes, the bullets fired by the royal soldiers seemed to have eyes, and the soldiers fleeing everywhere were slaughtered like lambs.
  
   He understood that Matsue Castle was lost.
