please make me king

Chapter 1456 Fighting the Mountain Fort Again

"Kill, kill, kill me!" "Marquis of Guishun" Geng Jimao was drenched in blood, with several arrows in his body, he still yelled loudly, looking like a madman.

"Let's go, let's go!" Geng Zhongming saw Hou Jinbing swarming up, couldn't help but grabbed him desperately, and dragged him back.

On the battlefield, there are winners and losers, and there are losers and winners. It is a common thing.

This time, Geng Zhongming and his son led [-] elite soldiers to cooperate with the rebel Feibiao blunderbuss. Although they caused a lot of trouble for the defenders, they quickly attacked the city. Gun can no longer support.

Geng Zhongming and his group were soon surrounded by people, almost unable to escape.

Zhang Shun and his gang waited under the city to see clearly, but it was useless to be anxious.

It was so easy to wait until Geng Zhongming and others retreated, and the Jin soldiers jumped out of the city wall to pursue them one after another. Li Shi'an quickly ordered the gunners to shoot over with shells, and Geng Zhongming and his gang waited for this to escape.

After finally waiting for everyone to return, Zhang Shun rushed up to greet them, seeing that Geng Zhongming and Geng Jimao father and son were fine except for minor injuries, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How about this method of warfare?"

"His Royal Highness's fighting style is really exquisite!" Hearing that, Geng Zhongming couldn't help but praise, "My father and son have never fought such a happy battle."

"It's just a pity that I couldn't win this city for His Highness today, it's a pity!"

Are you kidding me, with [-] people, you just want to take down the Shanshan Fort where [-] troops are stationed?

Zhang Shun shook his head when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "This strategy is easy to use, the army has seen it, and you father and son have done a good job."

"However, the king came here today not to listen to praise, but to ask if there is any improvement and if there is any defense. If the enemy finds a loophole, I am afraid that the next time the casualty will be our family. There are people!"

"If you talk about loopholes and improvements, it's not that there are none." Then Geng Zhongming saw that Zhang Shun's expression did not seem to be fake, he hesitated for a while before he opened his mouth and said.

"I don't know what Mrs. Hong is thinking. In fact, the guilty minister has a method that can cause great losses to the rebels who attacked the city."

"Oh? What is the solution?" Zhang Shun couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words.

"The city wall of Fanshan Castle is different from the old city walls. Although it is beneficial for the rebels to climb, it is not without the advantage of Jianlu's defense." Geng Zhongming glanced at Zhang Shun secretly, seeing that he did not intend to be angry, and then said bluntly road.

"If you use rolling logs to roll down the slope, I'm afraid that we will all die without a place to die!"

Zhang Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, and had to agree: "That's true, are there any other flaws?"

"I didn't think of other flaws." Seeing that Zhang Shun was really not angry, Geng Zhongming couldn't help but boldly continued, "There is another point, that is, when we jumped from the ground to charge, because the artillery was not connected closely. , vulnerable to Jianlu artillery."

"If it can be connected more closely, the effect will be better."

"It's not that we can't connect closely. The main reason is that the artillery accidentally hurt our own people!" Zhang Shun hesitated when he heard this, and couldn't help explaining.

Although the "infantry and artillery coordination" of the rebel army cooperated well, after all, this artillery is not the howitzer of later generations, and this infantry is not a well-trained warrior of later generations.

In fact, even in Zhang Shun's previous life, there were not many countries in the world that could complete the "infantry coordination" tactic.

If the rebel army wants to achieve that kind of effect, it is tantamount to nonsense.

"That's it." Zhang Shun pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but start discussing with the two of them.

Let's talk about how the rebels care about it, and let's talk about Geng Zhongming's attack on the city this time, which also caused a great shock to the Houjin Shoujiang Piangu.

After repelling the attack of the rebels, he hurriedly begged to see Mrs. Hong in person and told him about the past.

"Cannons, ambushes?" Mrs. Hong couldn't help frowning after listening to Pian Gu's narration, "I don't know if Mr. Fan has a countermeasure?"

"Your Majesty has already made up his mind on this matter, so why should you be a slave to talk too much!" After not seeing him for a long time, Fan Wencheng was good at flattering people, only this sentence made Mrs. Hong laugh heartily.

"Then tell me what I think!" Mrs. Hong couldn't help going down the donkey.

"At the beginning, His Majesty asked the soldiers to fill the wall of Fanshan Castle into a slope shape, of course it was not to make it easier for the 'shun thief' to climb." Fan Wencheng couldn't help laughing.

"Firstly, it is to defend against the artillery of the 'shun bandits'; secondly, of course, it is to lure the bandits to climb, so that our army can use rolling logs to crush them; finally, it is to lure the bandits closer and kill them with artillery!"

"Hey, that's right, that's what I think!" Mrs. Hong, who was quite depressed after the defeat, was in a good mood after hearing this.

Although Lao Tzu has never fought a war, the skills of Lao Tzu's subordinates have almost reached the level of your subordinates, right?
"It's just... just one more thing, which is quite troublesome!" That piece of Gu didn't learn the ability to flatter horses, hesitated for a moment, and had to speak bluntly.

"What's the trouble?" Mrs. Hong frowned, feeling somewhat displeased.

"I don't know what was mixed in the thieves' shells. After they shot in, the white powder flew everywhere. The bad guys saw that [-] or [-] people under the slave's command had been injured." Pian Gu saw that Mrs. Hong didn't get angry, and said quickly.

"White powder?" Mrs. Hong couldn't help wondering.

"Whatever it is, as long as the soldiers wear a hat to cover them, they will be safe!" Fan Wencheng didn't think that the rebels would come up with the idea of ​​filling quicklime powder in the shells, so he couldn't help suggesting.

"Okay, let's do it like this." Mrs. Hong nodded, and then ordered, "One is to prepare more rolling logs and roll them down the slope; , beware of poisonous 'shun thieves'!"

"Slave understands!" The guard saw that Mrs. Hong had "destroyed the strategy of following the bandits", and he couldn't help but make up his mind. He had already made preparations, but waited for the "shun bandits" to attack.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the rebel army once again sent a group of troops to rush forward with drums beating.

"Release the rolling log!" That article Gu couldn't help but ordered excitedly.

"Cha!" Following Pian Gu's order, seven or eight rolling logs were immediately lifted out by a group of soldiers, and then they retreated down the slope, rolling down with bone bones, and it was quite possible to shake the climbers. The momentum of pressing into meatloaf.

"Get up the shield!" Unexpectedly, at this moment, Geng Zhongming yelled loudly, and saw that the first row of soldiers who were climbing took out a solid shield one after another, inserted one end into the soil in front of them, and then held it tightly with their shoulders. , so that the shield and the ground form a slope.

"Bang bang bang!" Just after the front row of the rebels used shields to build a defensive posture, the heavy log rolled onto the shields.

It was only because of the angle of the shield that the logs did not collide violently with the shield of the rebels, but instead flew obliquely along the angle of the shield.

Then the heavy logs fell behind the crowd, and then fell down the slope into the moat behind.

"Eh, it's useless?" That article Gu couldn't help but glanced at the city in surprise, only saying that "shun thief" was a fluke.

And just when the Houjin soldiers were throwing the log, the rebel army's "blossom bomb" arrived at the right time, which also caused a burst of confusion for the Houjin soldiers.

However, due to the cover of the pocket hat, the "white powder" did not hurt a few people this time, which is really a blessing in misfortune.

"Gunner, I've got everything ready for me, don't move around, and fire me when the 'shun thief' jumps up!" Seeing that the method of rolling the log is useless, the ancient article had to put all his thoughts on the cannon superior.

Hmph, you "shun thief" is a good artillery, isn't it true that my "Great Qing Dynasty" Gushan forehead can't be done in ancient times?
Fifty steps. Thirty steps. Twenty steps.
Seeing the rebel army getting closer, Pian Gu's palms were sweating.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Boom boom boom!"

At this moment, the rebel's flying blunderbuss sounded again at the right time, and heavy iron bullets smashed into Houjin's trench, and then exploded countless shotgun shells.

That's it!

Pian Gu's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he ordered loudly: "The artillerymen are ready!"

"Bang bang bang!"

And just as the post-gold gunners were in a mess looking for the cannons in a panic, round objects were thrown in one after another. Before everyone could understand what was going on, the explosion sound of "boom boom boom" resounded again. The ditch of post-gold.

It turned out that after Geng Zhongming raised the issue of the connection between the artillery bombardment and the infantry charge last time, Zhang Shun thought about it, and finally came up with a solution that was not a solution.

That is to let the siege soldiers hold "grenades" and wait until they approach, then throw a round of "grenades" to disrupt the rear gold formation, and then charge.

Of course, in a hurry, where to find grenades?
By the way, Zhang ordered someone to take out some of the sub-guns of the midge cannon that had been stored, cut off the lead wire in advance, and then used it as a grenade.

Not to mention, the blunderbuss of this flying midge cannon is the size of a pop can in later generations, with just the right weight and weight, very suitable for carrying and throwing.

Sure enough, as soon as this thing was used, it immediately exploded and the Jin soldiers were in chaos.

"Kill, kill!" Geng Zhongming and Geng Jimao, father and son, saw the golden soldiers in a mess, without any hesitation, they rushed to the city first.

"Quick, quick, quick fire!" that Gu saw that the gunner who had just shouted was already in chaos after the bombing, so he couldn't help yelling loudly.

"Boom!" Although most of the gunners were either injured or running around, there were still some gunners who ignited the artillery in time.

However, these cannons were not carefully aimed at all, except for a few blind cats hitting a dead mouse, almost most of them just heard it.

The father and son Geng Zhongming and Geng Jimao became more and more excited when they saw this, and they jumped in early, killing anyone they saw, and beheading anyone they saw, only killing a piece of gunners and musketeers in Houjin City.

Some gunners and musketeers were frightened and shouted loudly: "Grandpa Geng, it's us, it's our Han army flag, the Tartars bullied us, can't you still bully us?"

"On the battlefield, everyone is their master. If you have any ideas, why don't you follow me and kill the Tartars, and I will ask King Shun for your credit!" Geng Zhongming rolled his eyes when he heard this, and couldn't help shouting road.

Ever since Kong Youde, King of Gongsun, died in battle and King Geng Zhongming of Huaishun surrendered, the flags of the Han army in Fanshan Fort had long been panicked. How many millions? Now that King Huaishun is the guarantor, why don't I come down early and avenge my revenge!"

"Why don't you come down early and get revenge!" Just one word, like a curse, spread throughout the whole castle in an instant.

The flag soldiers of the Han army who had been oppressed by the Tartars couldn't help being shocked. Many of them put on iron armor and held weapons and only slashed at the Tartars around them.

As a result, Fanshan Fort, which was originally as stable as Mount Tai, was in chaos.

"Siege the city, attack the city, attack the city with the whole army!" Zhang Shun, who was watching the battle from the watchtower outside the city, how could he know what happened in the city?
However, as a veteran general, he saw the chaos in Fanshan Fort, and immediately realized that this was the best time for the rebels to launch an attack.

"Kill, kill!" Following Zhang Shun's order, the infantry of the Rebel Army, who had been on standby outside the city, rushed up the wall of Shanshan Castle like a tide.

"Boom boom boom!" And at this moment, the cannons of the rebel army also sounded at the right time.

Li Shi'an's various artillery also provided timely fire support to the rebel army.
