I'm a big dick

Chapter 477
Yue Tuo was directing his men to shoot bows and arrows outside the camp. Although he did not provide any help to the cavalry, he believed that this would prevent the Ming army from approaching and attacking.

Such a fierce fire attack indicates that the Ming army will launch an attack next, which is basically certain.

And the gates of several camps have been blocked by the Lancers of the Ming Army. This is the benefit of speed, and there is no time for the enemies in the camp to reinforce them.

Facing the neatly lined Ming army musketeers standing with guns, Yue Tuo also knew that if he wanted to rush out for reinforcements through the narrow gate of the camp, it would have no effect at all except for the accumulation of dead bodies.

"Why didn't you rush out earlier? You idiot." Yue Tuo scolded loudly, so that the two Niu Lu couldn't lift their heads.

Looking up and seeing Nurhachi rushing over, Yue Tuo hurriedly stepped forward and gave a salute, "King Khan, this place is dangerous, please..."

Nurhachi waved his hands vigorously, frowned and said, "Where is it not dangerous?" After speaking, he continued to move forward to observe the enemy's actions.

Yue Tuo hurriedly followed, and reported while walking: "The enemy launched extremely fast, and they were all cavalry. Before launching, they suddenly fired artillery, with a very long range. They should be newly built, and they are hidden from our army."

Nurhachi nodded, probably understanding what had happened.The Ming army quietly deployed new artillery behind the cavalry, and then launched a sudden fire attack, which caught their own troops by surprise.

At this time, the sky had already turned white, and the line of sight became much clearer.

Under the protection of soldiers holding steel shields, Nurhachi climbed onto the wall of the village and looked up.

The enemy is dense and dark, not only the gate of the village is blocked, but also there are army formations outside the wall of the village.If it weren't for the trench barrier, such a large number of enemies would have shocked the old slave.

It was really the posture of a decisive battle and a general offensive. The old slave narrowed his eyes and made a judgment from the intensity of the artillery attack and the number of enemies dispatched.

To be honest, the Ming army's large-scale counterattack was somewhat unexpected to the old slave.Although the Ming army successfully defended during the day and broke through Haicheng, they did not show a strong desire to attack.

Moreover, from previous defeated battles, the Ming army basically took a defensive position, using fortifications and firearms to kill and injure its own troops.

But now, the old slave thinks that this is not a bluff, let alone a feint to intimidate, it is indeed a big counterattack launched by the whole army.

The explosions of the rockets gradually became rarer, and the chaos in the battalion gradually subsided.Under the command of officers at all levels, Jiannu is stabilizing, which also brings confidence to Nurhachi and others.

Stick to the camp and defeat the enemy's spirit.Nurhachi issued orders one after another, and all banners and cattle records were ready for defense.The old slave also ordered a cavalry to sneak out from behind the battalion, and when the attack of the Ming army was severely frustrated, they pursued and killed them in a roundabout way.

At this time, Daishan also rushed over.Since the injury was healed, this guy's body has not been as good as before, the most obvious thing is that he is short of breath at every turn.

The old slave glanced at Daishan, but he didn't get angry, but felt a little sad in his heart.

Daishan's internal injuries were not healed, Mang Gurtai was considered half disabled, Amin had been hacked into pieces; Daishan's fourth son Wakda died in battle, and his second son Shuotuo was hung up for public display...

"Father Khan." Daishan's panting calmed down a little, and he quickly bowed and said, "You go to the back and sit in charge, and I will command the battle here."

Nurhachi shook his head, and was about to speak when he was interrupted by a loud noise.

Between the formations of the Ming army, dozens of cannons were suddenly launched, and they opened fire and bombarded the Jiannu camp.Such a speed, such proficiency, is obviously due to adequate preparations and accurate measurements.

The sound of the guns kept ringing, and at a distance of about 200 meters, the field guns fired solid shells and flew straight towards the wall of the village.

The weight of the shell plus its speed gave it great impact and destructive power, and it hit the wooden wall hard.

Under such bombardment, even if the wood of the wall was not broken, it was cracked and twisted, splashing a piece of sawdust.

There were screams, and the Jiannu behind the wall were injured by broken logs, and some were shot on the face and body by the splashing sawdust.

"Father Khan, hurry down to the wall." Daishan was taken aback, and hurried forward to protect Nurhachi, and then commanded his own soldiers, "Hurry up and protect King Khan to a safe place."

Surrounded by all the guards, Nurhachi went down the wall of the village, turned his head and ordered loudly: "The enemy artillery is fierce, let the children come down and take shelter temporarily."

Boom, boom, boom... more shells were fired, more screams were heard, and Jiannu was hit and fell straight down.

"Fire!" The artillery officer ordered loudly, pointing his saber vigorously forward.

boom!Dazzling flames burst out from the muzzle, and the shells in the smoke shot out from the barrel and flew towards the enemy camp.

The concentrated use of dozens of artillery bombarded an area of ​​200 meters.The purpose is very simple, just like siege, open the gap and rush into the camp.

And farther away, on the heavily pressed position of Ming Dynasty, hundreds of cannons in the shape of water tanks pointed at the enemy camp obliquely, ready to fire.As long as the gap is opened, they will concentrate fire and bombardment to kill and injure Jiannu and provide cover for the infantry.

The walls of the village trembled and were damaged by the bombardment. First, they were ugly like bared teeth, then they were damaged like doors and windows, and then there were small gaps, which continued to expand.

"Travel, push the trolley over here." Daishan commanded in a hissing voice, and then panted heavily.

Not only are the walls of the village being destroyed, but people are also being lost.But to resist the artillery, Daishan can only think of using a chariot.Block the gap and provide protection.

Clean the barrel, load the ammunition, push forward, ignite and launch... The artillery of the Ming army operated at the fastest speed, bombarding the increasingly fragile wall.

The Jiannu on the wall of the village had been beaten to the ground, while the Jiannu below could only hold up their shields for protection.Bows and arrows want to fight artillery, only a fool can be so stupid.

Along with the artillery approaching forward, there were musketeers of the Ming army.It wasn't until a hundred meters away that they stopped and fired at the enemy.

The gap in the wall of the village is getting bigger and bigger, and the swaying figure of Jiannu can already be seen.After the muskets and artillery approached, their power became more fierce, and the Jiannu defending here continued to increase their casualties.

The cart was pushed over, barely forming a barrier at the gap.Under the command of the officer, Jiannu began to fight back with bows and arrows.

The battle situation seems to be stalemate, but in fact it is leaning towards the Ming army.The Ming army still has a backup, but Jiannu is already struggling with all his strength.

Boom!The shells hit the car hard, sawdust flew across, and several cracks appeared in the baffle.If there is one or two more shots, it must be the result of fragmentation.

And the car barely blocked the gap in the wall of the village, providing a shelter for Jiannu.However, the wall was destroyed, so that Daming Chongyong had a place to play, and the characteristics of curved projection were brought into play.

After a quick and brief adjustment, following a series of roars, a group of black shells swept across the air and smashed down hard.
