Daming: I help my wife be the empress

In the kitchen, Zhang Erquan and the others were stunned for a moment, then Qiu Huwei said anxiously: "Get weapons and ammunition!"

When they came down from the pier wall, their weapons and muskets had to be put into the armor room and the ammunition room.One is that it is inconvenient to do things with weapons and muskets; the other is to avoid damage to weapons and fellow robes due to quarrels and fights, impulsively facing each other with swords and guns.

Several people moved quickly, but they didn't panic at all.

Not to mention Zhang Erquan, who has been guarding the border for ten years in the area of ​​Zhenyisuo, the rest of them are also veterans. They have been in Zhenyisuo for half a year, and they have been rotated in Maotoudun twice.

Basically, cavalry from certain small tribes of Oala came to check, sometimes they were herdsmen, who were mistaken for Oala cavalry by them.

The reason why the Oirats came to check the situation here is very simple-not only Oirats and Tatars (Mongolia) would go south to fight grass valleys, but the Ming army would also lead troops into the grasslands to rob and kill some small tribes in order to obtain supplies and military exploits.

The three of them took waist knives, long guns, and muskets, while Qi Sanyuan picked up the only tiger squatting cannon in the pier, Wan Dagui and Zhang Erquan helped him get some shotguns and gunpowder, and hurried up the pier wall.

As for the superintendent Qiu Huwei, he had already stepped up to the wall first.

Gunshots rang out one after another, but they had already started fighting with Luqi.

Zhang Erquan had just climbed onto the pier wall, and before he came to remember to look outside, he heard the corps leader Lou Huaiying shout: "Be careful! The captives are shooting arrows!"

He quickly ran a few steps and hid under the pier wall.

A rain of arrows fell, and there were more than [-] arrows!
Zhang Erquan, who was familiar with the combat methods of Luqi, did not rush to take the lead, but first raised Fan Yangli from the crenel with his scabbard.

Zhang Erquan had experienced captive cavalry invading the border many times. He knew that the captive cavalry invaded the border, so he often attacked Bian Dun with scout cavalry first.

Whether it is Tatar or Oala, their scouts are relatively elite, many are good at shooting, and there may even be eagle shooters.

Those who are good at shooting captive cavalry will generally not follow the rain of arrows, but will look for opportunities to shoot people in the face in order to achieve effective shooting.

Sure enough, as soon as his Fan Yangli came out of the crenel, he was shot down by an arrow.Zhang Erquan picked up Fan Yangli and took it with him, then hurriedly looked out, and found that there were more than a dozen Oirat cavalry on his side alone.

At this time, the voice of the corps leader Lou Huaiying came again, "Grandma, this team of dog tartars took advantage of the strong wind and sand today, and we didn't see them until they were more than a hundred steps away."

Zhenyisuo is just at the edge of the Tengger Desert. Although the Zhangye River flows by, there are still many deserts around, and the sky is full of yellow sand when there is a wind.

The wind happened to be relatively strong today, so under the wind and sand, even if you stand on the pier wall and look into the distance, you can only see more than 100 steps away.

It is very difficult for the Oirats to rise up and attack Biandun in this weather. It is difficult for them to find out in advance.

But at the position of more than 100 steps, Wala Qingqi can quickly rush to the vicinity.

It’s okay if there are few Oirats, but now it seems that the Oirat cavalry who came to attack them should be about 50 people, which is five times their number. Even if they only have bows and arrows, they can still suppress the side pier to a certain extent.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of probing, Zhang Erquan shot an arrow out, but missed the enemy, but hit the horse.

Immediately, he squatted down decisively and began to load the musket.

Their muskets are all flintlock guns, and they look [-]% new, and they are pretty good to use. It is said that they were replaced by the Imperial Guards.

It is said that what the imperial guards are using now is the Zhaowu Second Style, which is better than theirs.

The border guards have already equipped enough flintlock guns, so it is their turn to guard the guards to eliminate the equipment.Otherwise, they would have to use the old bird guns and three-eyed guns.

After loading the musket, Zhang Erquan changed his position, got up again and shot an arrow quickly.

This arrow hit the chest of an Oirat cavalryman. As a light cavalryman, the opponent was only wearing leather armor, but Zhang Erquan used a step bow. With a distance of more than twenty steps, the opponent was not dead or seriously injured.

Zhang Erquan subconsciously grinned, and then he heard a whoosh, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis, he quickly turned sideways and squatted down.Before he squatted down, a feathered arrow brushed his shoulder and shot past.

The cloth surface of the battle jacket was shot through, exposing the iron sheet inside, which made Zhang Erquan feel distressed.

So he immediately picked up the flintlock, got up and fired at the Wala Qingqi who was suspected of being a good shooter outside.

Because muskets were rarely used in the past, Zhang Erquan felt that he was not as comfortable with bows and arrows when using muskets.He fired a shot, but the one who was good at shooting was missed, but a Qingqi beside him was hit and fell down.

"You stupid cavalry, eat your grandpa's cannon!"

Not far away, Qi Sanyuan finally finished tinkering with the tiger squatting cannon, and set it up directly on the crenel.Qi Sanyuan is an old gunner, skilled and courageous, before putting it on the crenel, he ignited the fuse, and after two breaths after the tiger crouching cannon emerged from the crenel, there was a muffled sound.

Bang!
I saw the scattered cannons covering down like a net!

The dozen or so Oirat cavalry below were shocked when they saw this, scattered in panic, and wanted to escape.

But at a distance of twenty or thirty steps, how can the shotguns of the tiger crouching gun be so easy to hide?

After seeing gunpowder smoke, fistfuls of blood mist burst out from the lower corner, mixed with wind and sand, instantly forming a scene like Shura's hell.

But this shot directly knocked out eight or nine Oirat cavalrymen, and only five escaped by chance, or were only slightly injured.

Some of the Oirat cavalrymen who were knocked out were wounded and screamed miserably, but the rest did not dare to save them, so they fled to a distant place in a hurry.

"Dagui, quickly help me fill it!"

After firing the shot, Qi Sanyuan was not very happy, but called Wan Dagui to help clean the barrel, reload the gunpowder and the cannon, and planned to fire another cannon while the Oirat cavalry did not flee far.

Zhang Erquan took the opportunity to get up, and Zhang Gong shot continuously!
Because the Oirat cavalry ran away with his back on their backs, which gave him a good chance. He hit two arrows in a row with three arrows!

One of the vests was shot by an arrow and soon fell off his horse.The other was shot by an arrow in the arm and fled with the arrow.

Zhang Erquan smacked his mouth, feeling a little sorry for not being able to shoot the other person.

"Liu!"

At this time, Lou Huaiying's cry suddenly came from the other pier wall.

Then I heard Xiao Liu screaming.

Zhang Erquan hurriedly looked over, and saw Liu Jin lying on the ground, with a feathered arrow stuck in his eye, twitching and howling.

Besides Lou Huaiying, the other two were Liu Mao and Liu Jin.Liu Mao is older and is called Da Liu by everyone; Liu Jin is about the same age as Wan Dagui, so he is called Xiao Liu.

Seeing Xiao Liu's appearance, everyone was anxious and helpless.

Although the captive cavalry are now fighting against their Ming army, whether it is bows or muskets, they all like to shoot in the face.But this was the first round of the Oirat cavalry's attack. Unfortunately, Liu Jin got an arrow in the eye, which was really unlucky.

Although there are ruthless people who pull out the feathered arrow and eat the eyeball after being hit by an arrow in the eye, that is when the feathered arrow didn't go deep.Even so, the pain behind the arrow in the eye is not something ordinary people can bear.

Zhang Erquan looked at Liu Jin's situation, but his eyes were shot deep. It's hard to say whether he can survive now.

After taking a look, Zhang Erquan didn't run over to take care of Liu Jin.He is not a doctor, and he cannot be rescued even if he goes there.

On the contrary, because there was one person missing on this wall, the Oirat cavalry became arrogant and screamed strangely below.

Zhang Erquan repeated the old trick, using the bamboo hat dropped by Liu Jin to attract an arrow from the opponent, and then immediately got up to fight back.

It's a pity that his arrow fell through the air.

At this time, Qi Sanyuan and Wan Dagui came over, and they first lit the fuse before firing the cannon.

"The barbarians of the dog day, taste the power of your third master Qi's cannon!"

Because it was urgent to set up the cannon, Qi Sanyuan didn't have time to fix the tiger squatting cannon, so he could only hold it behind with a rattan plate.

boom!
A cannon sounded, and the shotgun turned into a net of death and flew outward again.

However, Qi Sanyuan was also shocked by the reaction force when the tiger squatting gun was fired, and sat down on the ground.

The tiger crouching cannon was about to fall, but it was pulled back because it was tied by a rope.

"Kill the prisoner!"

"Avenge Xiao Liu!"

Lou Huaiying and Liu Mao yelled, taking advantage of the chance of the Oirat cavalry fleeing in a hurry under the scattered bullets, they got up and fired their muskets.

Zhang Erquan also followed Zhang Gong to shoot arrows.

Together, the three of them made only two of the dozen or so Oirat cavalry escape from the wall, and the rest were all left behind, either dying tragically on the spot or screaming from serious injuries.

Immediately, some of the Oala cavalry yelled for a while, and heard Qiu Huwei, who was guarding the other wall alone, say: "The Oirat cavalry withdrew."

At the same time, a thick smoke rose into the sky from the big chimney in the pier and fell into the wind and sand.

Second more.

Good night~
