Four small black dots flashed past. Two of them hit the front of the battle line. Where they hit, the soil splashed out and a faint white smoke came out. The other two shot into the back of the battle line. The infantry on the front looked up to see.
But from the distance of a little kid
The attack was not effective. Cao Cao's front line was slightly confused. The bandits in the front row near Xiaowazi all turned their heads and looked west. The two locusts stretched their necks. The sound of the first round of artillery fire by the paddy field had not yet dispersed. On the soil slope
The fire suddenly appeared, and the four artillery pieces fired almost at the same time.
The target was still the middle section of Cao Cao's battle line. Two of the four shells in this round also hit close by, and one of them hit a small fish pond. White water columns rose into the sky, and splashing water columns fell back to the water, causing chaos.
Dense ripples and white flowers on the fish pond
This time, two missiles also hit the queue, one of which hit the front row. More than a dozen celebrity bandits in that position fled, and were then forced back to their original positions by several figures in red clothes holding knives. For thousands of Cao Cao
The array of people almost only counts as one
A ripple.
The little boy breathed a sigh of relief, "Look at the Second Chief, this cannon is too loose and tight. It's not as big as the cannon they have at Puzikou. The officers and soldiers were beating them randomly..." Before he finished speaking, there was another round of roar from the officers and soldiers, and the little boy
Wazi was startled, thinking that a new cannon was coming. When he looked carefully, it turned out that the four cannons by the paddy field were firing again. The interval in between was too short, and the first round of white smoke was all gone.
It has not dispersed. This round of four shells hit three, and the target was still the position of the first round of shelling. The queue that had just recovered was once again in chaos. The little boy saw a figure leaving the queue, and the figure in red was chasing, followed by the slope.
Shangya launches
The second round took place. As the little kid watched in amazement, the eight artillery pieces beside the paddy fields and on the slopes fired in turn at a speed he had never seen before. White smoke filled the air in front of the artillery array, and the busy figures of the gunners disappeared and appeared.
, there are still orange colors in the white smoke
Colorful flames shone, showing that the gunners were still working. The battlefield echoed with the roaring sound of cannons, and the white smoke gradually spread. The little boy began to smell a faint smell of gunpowder smoke. The archers fighting in the middle were obviously shaken in military morale, and they pulled away one after another.
The distance between you and the army is so long that you draw your bow and fire it randomly.
, he spends most of his time paying attention to the opponent's artillery. On a battlefield of tens of thousands of people, only these eight small cannons are the protagonists. Everyone is admiring his performance. The two locusts opened their mouths and opened their eyes wide.
The rogue infantry were noisy, but he didn't know how to suppress them. They had seen a lot of artillery and muskets from the officers and soldiers. The fight was more lively than before, but after the fight, they were gone and they didn't see anything.
They hit several people. But the eight small cannons in front of them were completely different. They worked in a skilled and inertial manner. Each of the four cannons fired almost at the same time. Each salvo was shocking.
The firelight flickered in the increasingly thick white smoke, like a ghost looming in the thick fog. Continuous artillery shells flew out of it, continuously hitting the middle of Cao Cao's line. The little boy pulled the two locusts several times before letting the two locusts return.
After coming to his senses, he followed the little boy's instructions and looked at Cao Cao's formation. As time went by, the artillery fire became more and more accurate. Almost every shell hit the huge formation. The continuous shells swept across Cao Cao's center line.
The front line had been completely broken, and the collapsed crowd fled in all directions. Various stumps and corpses were scattered on the ground. The infantrymen in their hands hissed loudly, and the sound came from far away. Even Xiaowa
You can hear it here.
"I just said that the guns of these officers and soldiers are different. I said it a long time ago..." Er Locust grabbed the clothes on his chest with his hands, "You don't believe me."
The little boy murmured, "It's not that I don't believe my parents, they also had a cannonball last night, but not so fast."
Er Locust said angrily, "You can't see it at night, so naturally it can't be so fast." The little boy had nothing to say. There was a commotion on the rogue front. The Chuangtaotian headquarters in Chemahe Town was the farthest away and couldn't see clearly what was going on.
What, but the continuous sound of gunfire is very abnormal, and it also affects their will.
There has not been any fighting on the front east wing, and the eight kings in the middle have also not responded. Only Cao Cao is fighting alone with the officers and soldiers. Cao Cao's flag is at the back of the bombarded front, and several trumpets were sounded there. The little boy knows
It's useless. Each battalion is accustomed to mobile operations. Most of the orders are passed verbally. The horn can convey very little information.
This kind of large-scale battle is almost useless, and you still have to rely on the horse soldiers to convey orders verbally. As soon as I thought of this, two old thieves in red quickly ran past in front of me and headed towards Cao Cao. The little boy recognized the old camp.
A Gaozhao from Ai Chang's family, probably the Eighth Master also saw something was wrong and sent him out to talk to Cao Cao.
The monotonous sound of cannons kept ringing, and the little boy was thirsty. He took out his coconut scoop and took a sip. There was only half a pot in it. Tens of thousands of people gathered in the Chema River. There was not enough water in the well.
Before dawn, I went to the river to have a drink.
, but the officers and soldiers came too quickly, and many people who came back from Fengjia Store had no chance to fetch water and eat. At this time, there were many hungry and thirsty people in the queue. After who knows how many rounds of artillery fire, the battlefield finally calmed down, and the little boy
He felt some discomfort in his ears and took a few breaths unconsciously. He looked carefully towards Cao Cao. The entire front line on the west wing was in chaos. There were scattered people everywhere. The section that was under shelling was
On a small mound, there were only corpses left on the ground. Some infantrymen were running around like headless flies. A group of people in red had just arrived there. They were obviously sent by Cao Cao.
The old camp could barely maintain the front line, and some of the old cavalry soldiers were chasing deserters everywhere.
The archers fighting in the middle were unable to move forward or retreat. They were knocked unconscious by this bombardment and were in a completely exposed position. Fortunately, the army's artillery did not shoot at them. Gao Zhao, who had just gone to deliver the order, ran back again. He was always
Riding a tall horse, due to the terrain restrictions, I can only run around, appearing to be in a hurry. I even fell down and got stained when the little boy and the others were there.
The mud on his face made him look quite embarrassed. He didn't bother wiping off the mud and went to where the eight kings were. Cao Cao must have something important to explain.
"Cao Cao definitely wants the master's help, he can't hold on." Er Locust whispered. The little boy turned to look at him, and saw that the elder's eyes were red, but his expression was much calmer.
"Then how can Master Eight fight?" Two Locusts pointed to the west, "These thousand officers and soldiers have cannons and armor. No matter how many people Cao Cao sends, they won't be able to fight them down. But there are many of us, and Cao Cao will definitely stretch it westward and bypass it.
Go to the side of the dog officers and soldiers. The longer we pull, the better we can fight. At least the officers
The troops cannot attack."
The little kid nodded in admiration. After all, Er Locust was more experienced than him, and he didn't panic. Usually when fighting against officers and soldiers, head-on attacks were often unfavorable. They had to spread out the troops and extend the front line to make it easier to fight.
At this time, the bombardment was suspended for a while. Cao Cao's center line was still fragmented and full of dead and wounded. Taking advantage of this gap, Cao Cao's flag waved a few times and another group of infantry was rushed from the rear to fill the front.
The head of the army began to kill the wounded on the ground to prevent their screams from affecting the morale of the army. The smoke in front of the artillery array gradually dissipated, and the busy figures of the gunners became clear again. In front of the four guns beside the paddy field, two gunners
Each of them was holding something similar to a mop, dipping water in the paddy field, and then wiping it on the inside and outside of the cannon body.
, there is a person carrying a wooden bucket over there on the slope, which is probably filled with water.
The little kid asked in confusion, "Second Chief's family, what are they doing?"
The two locusts were dumbfounded and didn't say anything. They had never seen other officers and soldiers dancing with cannons like this.
Suddenly, a voice shouted from behind, "The officers and soldiers must be doing something evil!"
The two looked back and saw that it was a servant, but not one of their subordinates. He had a Huguang accent, blushed and shouted, "He must have done something wrong, otherwise he would never have seen such a fast cannon."
.”
The little boy was doubtful. In fact, everyone was a little confused. If he looked carefully at the artillery formation over there, he could only see the gunners dancing with their mops, and there was faint white smoke rising from the cannons. It really seemed like they were doing some kind of magic.
The other infantrymen all agreed. The officers and soldiers had not fired their artillery yet. Who knew where they would hit next? If they hit their section, no one would be able to withstand a single shot. They anxiously shouted around, "Master, hurry up and break the law."
”.
Another person in charge hurriedly went to find Bao Hongqi. He ordered several guards to rush to the back of the queue. The infantry team was noisy and everyone looked very anxious.
The officers and soldiers on the opposite side were busy working for a while, and the artillery array became quiet again. Only the skirmishers in the middle were left firing arrows in the air, which was completely perfunctory. At this time, there was a cry behind him, and the little boy turned around and saw that more than a dozen women were being treasured.
The guards sent by the flag banner escorted them out, all of whom were not wearing pants. The servants and infantrymen around them screamed and howled, and they all stepped forward to pull more than a dozen women into the formation.
forward.
Some infantrymen began to dig holes in the ground with their swords. Bao Hongqi strode over and shouted, "The officers and soldiers are about to fire, don't waste the time to break the method, and just chop them down without digging holes!"
He picked up the knife and chopped off the heads of several women. The other women screamed hysterically and struggled to run out. The foot soldiers raised their weapons and chased them. They chopped down all the women and then dragged them to the front of the formation.
general girl
The human corpses were arranged in a line, with their lower bodies facing the direction of the official artillery array. The artillery array was still quiet.
"The law has been broken, the demon cannon has stopped firing!" The formation cheered, and everyone waved their weapons and cheered happily.
Suddenly, there was a roar from the paddy field opposite, and four artillery pieces started bombarding again, followed by four artillery pieces on the slope, still aimed at Cao Cao's middle road, and the target seemed to be the position of Cao Cao's flag. The artillery formation on the opposite side did not receive any attack at all.
The impact of the rapid fire one after another was more accurate than the first bombardment. Wherever the shells hit, limbs flew everywhere. The infantry who had just filled the front line were hit before they could gain a firm footing. They were immediately scattered in all directions, even on both wings.
Shaken, the red-coated guards themselves were under shelling, and they had no time to stop them. Cao Cao's flag fell twice, and finally it was barely raised again. The artillery array continued to fire, and the little boy guessed that
With eight cannons firing at least two hundred rounds in a short period of time, Cao Cao's entire center line was in turmoil and could collapse at any time. The infantry on the Xiying front were stunned, and everyone looked pale. They could not believe what they saw.
In their understanding, it is natural to use filthy objects to destroy the demon, but a dozen women failed to destroy it.
The opponent's magic technique, and when the officers and soldiers used this move in the past, the barrels would often explode, or they would be unable to continue firing.
Er Locust said calmly to the little kid, "The magic trick you used to break your mother's donkey ball is clearly a quick cannon. If we continue to fight like this for a while, the army's infantry will come up, and Cao Cao will not be able to hold on. Little kid
His throat was dry. He had never thought that thousands of people could be defeated by cannons alone. Even he thought that the officers and soldiers might have done something wrong, otherwise they would not have been so fast. But the two locusts' judgment of the situation was probably right.
, their front line closest to Cao Cao is located in the southwest of Tufeng Village. Now just seeing others being bombarded has already made people panic. As long as Cao Cao collapses, they will be defeated without the use of officers and soldiers in this section. It is absolutely impossible.
If you can hold on, everyone will be
The officers and soldiers surrounded the river. In his anxiety, he pulled on his collar and said, "Cao Cao is an old man, so he naturally has methods."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of trumpets from the east, and dense infantry poured out from the river of carriages and horses, rushing towards the officers and soldiers on the post road.
The two locusts clapped their hands and said, "Chuangtai Tianming is right. He is involved here, so the officers and soldiers dare not attack Cao Cao directly." Then there was a noise from the west, and a dark crowd poured out from not far away, about a mile away from Xiaowazi.
Thirty steps away, he could see clearly that these people were in ragged clothes, only a few of them had sticks, and most of them were old and weak.
Women and children, surrounded by infantry, rushed toward the officers and soldiers' lines.
Er Locust chuckled and said, "Sure enough, it is the elder's family. He must have prepared it a long time ago. He must be an Anqing native caught in Chenghe Village. I don't think the Anqing soldiers can fight him." The crowd let out a desperate cry.
There was a loud sound, and they crowded together. Those who had sticks also discarded their sticks. Some people pulled each other and fell to the ground crying. The infantry kept slashing with swords and guns. In a moment, the ground was covered with corpses. Shocked
The crowd ran away like crazy, and then a steady stream of people were driven out, stepping on the corpses and rushing towards the officers and soldiers' artillery array.
The little boy has seen this scene many times. The elders often drive the locals to attack the city. If the officers and soldiers do not fight, they will take the opportunity to break the city. If they do, it will definitely affect the morale of the officers and soldiers. No matter what the outcome is, it will have a negative impact on the battalions.
They are all beneficial and harmless. The little boy subconsciously looked at Wang Dashan next to him. This man was from Moyan Shop, and he was basically a local from Chema River. He was already lying on the ground, with sweat dripping from his head and a pale face.
With his mouth wide open, he stared blankly at those people
The group of officers and soldiers sounded a command cannon, and one of the five flags surrounding the general recognized the flag was waving. The little boy saw the general flag under the slope responding, and then a drum sounded, and the four flags in front of the artillery array waved.
A small square formation began to advance slowly and neatly
, there were about six to seven hundred officers and soldiers. The trumpets sounded on Cao Cao's left wing near Xiaowazi, and all the elders drew their weapons and shouted in front of the formation. Another trumpet sounded, and all the elders shouted in unison, Cao Cao
Thousands of infantrymen from the front line of the left wing swarmed out, following the people to meet the official army formation.
