MTL - Road Survival, I Have a Hint System!-Chapter 1442 Cannonballs break the city
Chapter 1442
A shell hit the city wall.
Those Japanese pirates stationed on the city wall did not expect that what they faced was such a covering fire suppression.
They thought it was the same as hundreds of years ago, as long as they stood on the city wall, waited for the Ming army to come ashore, and then shot them with bows and arrows.
Finally, pray a little more.
Anyway, the great kamikaze will bless them.
In addition, the daimyo and the samurai class squeezed ordinary soldiers quite hard. Except for a small number of elite troops wearing armor, most of them wore bamboo hats and armor woven from bamboo. A spear made of pointed bamboo.
It is simply a farmer who has just put down his hoe.
As soon as they were pulled to the top of the city, they were stunned by the overwhelming shells.
Pieces of flowering bombs fell, and the violent explosion directly smashed a large piece of the city wall, blasting huge gaps in the city wall.
"These Japanese pirates cut corners so much even on the city walls?"
Mu Jiansheng looked at the break in the city wall, where sections of broken bamboo emerged.
Obviously, the city wall is made of bamboo brackets filled with rammed earth.
It looks bluffing from a distance, but the actual effect is just that.
It's okay to guard against bows and arrows, but it's not enough to guard against artillery.
The only advantage is that it is faster to repair.
Think about it too, if this method is not used, how can these pirates build such a long wall in such a short period of time?
"But that's all, attack with all your strength, kill the defenders on the city wall, open a gap wide enough, and **** the legion to land."
Mu Jiansheng gave the order.
Boom, boom!
The shelling intensified.
The dense shells covered the entire city wall.
The city wall, which had already cut corners, collapsed instantly under the coverage of enhanced firepower.
Large areas of the city wall collapsed, and the soldiers and warriors on it also became fragments along with the city wall.
An hour later, Mu Jiansheng opened up a landing site more than ten kilometers long.
The land in this area was thoroughly plowed by shells, and the soil was stained red with blood.
"The boat docks and lands!"
Small boats approached the shore one after another, and some grenadiers waded directly to land.
A flying mine cannon was transported to the shore.
At this time, the benefits of this artillery can be seen.
Serious bronze cannons, cast iron cannons can be calculated at hundreds of catties casually, and a little more caliber will cost thousands of catties, which cannot be transported by ordinary boats.
The barrel of the Flying Thunder Cannon weighs only a few kilograms, and it is easy to maintain, extremely easy to transport, and quickly assembled. It will soon be able to build a complete defense network and beachhead, buying time for follow-up troops.
In charge of the defense of this beachhead is Shimadzu Xiongyi of the Shimadzu family.
He was stunned by the artillery of the Ming army before. Although Fusang also had artillery, those were in the hands of powerful daimyos. He only had an iron artillery team (using firecrackers) in his hand, and the core was infantry and samurai.
Shimadzu Xiongyi once suspected that the artillery of the Ming army did not need money?
How much money would such continuous bombing cost?
On the island, even the richest daimyo would not dare to use artillery so extravagantly.
Originally Shimadzu Xiongyi had given up, but after seeing the Ming army landed, he had a glimmer of hope again.
On the artillery, he admitted that there was a little gap between himself and the Ming army.
But in foot combat, it's unknown.
Their Shimadzu family has the most outstanding samurai, who can defeat a hundred with one enemy. I believe that with their outstanding samurai, they can drive the Ming army back to the sea.
Let those Ming troops know who is the number one army in the world.
"Samurai of the Shimadzu family! Go to the battlefield and prove your bravery, plank!"
"Plate!"
A group of warriors drew out their long knives and charged towards the Ming army.
The rest of the infantry rushed up with their spears in hand.
Seeing the rushing warriors, the Ming soldiers showed contemptuous expressions.
They are all veterans who have fought against the elite of the Qing army.
The elite of the Qing army still wore at least two layers of armor, and some generals even wore three layers of armor.
Such a thick defense was thrown away by the Ming army, and now these infantry with only civilian clothes can stop them?
The Ming soldiers raised their Yongli-style rifles and pulled the trigger.
bang bang bang!
A series of shots fired, and the warriors rushing in the first row fell to the ground.
Many people stared wide-eyed before they died, as if they couldn't believe why the firecrackers of the Ming army were so powerful.
Unexpectedly, from one mile away, they can penetrate the armor that they have passed down from their ancestors.
However, no one explained to them to stop.
They can only sink into eternal darkness with their hearts full of puzzlement.
After the gunshot, the infantry didn't even react, and continued to charge with their spears.
bang bang bang!
Another burst of gunfire rang out.
Another platoon of pawns fell.
Rows of corpses fell to the ground.
Only then did the pawns realize the problem, and they all wanted to stop and run back.
But they have rushed into the range of the flying thunder cannon.
Boom, boom, boom!
A series of flying thunder cannons roared.
One after another, the dynamite packets exploded in the air.
Those pawns didn't even have time to think, they were directly torn to pieces by the shock wave.
After two rounds of shelling, most of the charging infantry were killed.
The morale of the remaining infantry collapsed directly.
They dropped their weapons, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com turned around and ran away.
It was like seeing a devil.
The warriors who supervised the battle cut down a dozen fleeing infantry one after another, but failed to stop the rout.
The pawns ran back frantically, unable to stop them at all.
"Infantry advance!"
Mu Jiansheng commanded.
The grenadiers formed a team of three and marched forward in skirmish lines.
When corpses are found along the way, they will go up and make up a knife to prevent someone from escaping from feigning death.
"The Shimadzu House is over!"
Seeing this one-sided battle, Xiong Yi Shimadzu knew that facing such a powerful Ming army, the Shimadzu family was powerless to resist.
Not to mention the Shimadzu family, even if all Fusang's names are combined, they are not the opponent of the Ming army.
If you want to defeat the Ming army, unless the kamikaze from hundreds of years ago comes again, the entire Fusang will be conquered by the Ming army.
"Since you can't beat it, then join."
There was a light in Shimadzu Kumaichi's eyes.
The Muqiang factor flows in the blood of Fusang people.
As long as someone is better than him, he will crazily worship the other person, and then imitate and learn from the inside out.
You can even let the opponent do whatever you want.
This can be seen from the fact that the Fusang government publicly organized women to work in the military camps of the Mi Army after the war.
Shimadzu Xiongyi had only one idea at this time, and that was to join the Ming army, act as the dog of the Ming army, and lead the Ming army to conquer Fusang.
In this way, the Shimadzu family may be able to survive.
He even became the spokesperson of the Ming army in Fusang.
If they can get to this point, their Shimadzu family will not only be able to survive, but even live well, which is a step further than they are now. Previous Chapter Contents Bookmarks Next Chapter
