Chapter 2709: Five hundred heroes Hutoufeng, the army is testing, the recruits are full
At this time, Liu Ming said with a serious expression: "As long as Hutou Mountain is protected, Xiangyang can be kept safe.
The top of the mountain is the place where grenades are most likely to exert their power. Let the soldiers of the entire army collect the grenades for me!"
"You leave half of yourself!"
This time, Miss Jiang did not reject Liu Ming anymore, but agreed happily.
When Miss Jiang was about to turn around and head towards Hutou Peak.
But at this moment, Chen Yaoguang was carrying his toolbox and quickly followed her! When Miss Jiang looked at Chen Yaoguang in surprise, the little girl waved her hand and said, "When the mountain is in danger, it is necessary to blow up artillery, repair weapons and equipment, and temporarily make necessary weapons on the battlefield. I can stand them alone..." Chen Yaoguang said this, and she looked up at the new army soldiers walking in front, and then firmly stretched out two fingers: "Two hundred people!"
Seeing Chen Yaoguang like this, Miss Jiang Yuxin could no longer argue with her, so she had to let her follow.
At this time, our sister Chen walked forward while turning around cutely, turned around and waved handsomely to Liu Ming behind her.
Seeing this, Liu Ming also gritted his teeth and waved his hand to say goodbye to the two girls in front of him.
...Just as Miss Jiang Yuxin built a defensive position on the top of Hutou Mountain and began to prepare to defend this mountain, the Xiangyang City had already formed a group of people.
The deafening sound of gunfire came from afar across the Han River, and the battle actually entered this intensity at the beginning, which shows that the Mongolian army has strong confidence and determination.
At the same time, in the lower reaches of the Han River, tens of thousands of Mongolian troops were swimming across the river from the surface of the Han River in a relatively narrow place.
They were separated from the Mongolian army and used to attack Xiangyang.
They planned to bypass the lower reaches of the Han River, set up a Mongolian army camp in the south of the Yangtze River, cooperate with the Mongolian army in the north of the Yangtze River, and attack Xiangyang and Fancheng at the same time.
Sister Chen Yaoguang was on the top of the mountain at this moment. While helping the soldiers design a blocking position, she looked at the Mongolian cavalry floating on the river like an ant in the distance.
All of these Mongolian cavalry jumped off their war horses and crossed the river with their necks.
Two bulging sheepskin bags were tied to their saddles, one left and one right.
At the same time, behind this team, there were also a large number of spare war horses and armor weapons.
When Chen Yaoguang saw this scene, she looked back at Marshal Jiang who was observing the surrounding terrain.
At this time, she was already impressed by the master's wife! Chen Yaoguang said in his heart: "The words Mrs. Jiang asked casually just now, and asked her if she could install the cannons on the ferry and convert them into river patrol gunships. It turned out that this is the reason!"
If merchant ships could really withstand the recoil of artillery, then this would not be the case on the Han River now! As long as there were a few ships patrolling the Han River with artillery, the Mongolian soldiers swimming in the heart of the river would be slaughtered, and they could not even fire a bow and arrow to counterattack.
The cannons on the ship would beat large numbers of Mongolian troops into the bottom of the Han River like shooting ducks! Unfortunately, Miss Jiang's plan failed because of the ship's problems.
However, when Chen Yaoguang thought of his master's wife, he still felt much more at ease.
As a result, the situation on both sides of the Han River began to become more and more tense. In the area north of Fancheng, the roar of artillery did not stop for almost a moment!... General Hai Mutang, the defender of Fancheng, was very familiar with the battle against the city.
She once designed the Yitian Fortress, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and stationed there, fighting with the Jin army for more than a year.
Moreover, she also led a large army to defend Yangzhou during the Battle of Tongzhou.
She had carefully studied various examples of Li Muyuan's defense of Tongzhou, so how to defend a city was already aware of Hai Mutang.
At this time, the Mongolian army in Jiangbei was also struggling to continue to attack under the city in the north of Fancheng.
After the previous two battles with Tongzhou, the Mongols suffered a lot on Tongzhou firearms.
So in the past few years, their research on Tongzhou's firearms in tactics and tactics has not stopped for a day.
This is how it is today. As soon as these Mongolian soldiers approached Fancheng, they immediately became a scattered scattered soldiers, and the distance between each cavalry even widened to two or three feet apart.
They sent several teams from four or five miles away and rushed towards Fancheng at a crazy speed.
Hai Mutang knew that this was they using this method, trying to find out how many Tongzhou troops and firearms were in Fancheng.
Seeing this scene, Hai Mutang ordered the artillery in Fancheng without hesitation to immediately bombard the Mongolian cavalry near the city wall with shotgun! Once the shotgun was sprayed out of the muzzle, a large piece of shotgun would scatter hundreds of meters away, which was very effective for attacking enemy troops in scattered states.
Under artillery fire, these cavalry were basically knocked down by shotguns two or three hundred meters away, and there was no chance to approach the walls of Fancheng.
During this period, Hai Mutang kept firing half of the artillery, that is, six artillery guns, at full speed, and constantly bombarding the outside of the city.
At the same time, Hai Mutang also asked an infantry company to shoot at the Mongolian army in the distance on the city.
The artillery works very well, but the result of the rifle shooting is very frustrating.
These Huaixi soldiers who had only been around for a month after picking up their guns, their hit rate was really low when they were shooting the moving targets 300 meters away! They had only shot with their rifles for two rounds, and then they were ordered by Hai Mutang to stop shooting.
"Rifles can only be fought in close combat, and the distance threatened by grenades is closer."
At this time, Hai Mutang frowned and thought to himself: "Long-range strikes can only rely on artillery, but the number of artillery is seriously insufficient!"
"If the enemy starts to sprint with all their might and launches a saturation attack on Fancheng, the battle will definitely be uglier at that time!"
Thinking of this, Miss Hai Mutang rubbed her forehead with her hands, and her head hurt! Fortunately, this time she followed the cannons and fired the artillery outside the city were all instructors of the artillery teaching team led by the blood-handed Liu Ming.
These people originally thought of teaching by example and deeds from Huainan West Road and cultivating a group of artillery soldiers there.
Therefore, without exception, everyone is an artillery instructor, and it is even more accurate and fierce when controlling artillery.
Their familiarity with the performance of artillery has reached a state of superb level.
These artillery instructors are like the bloody Liu Ming, all of whom are heroic gunners in previous wars! When Hai Mutang saw that the enemy's impact was obviously tempting, her eyes turned back from the battlefield.
She greeted some people in the city and asked them about some situations inside and outside Xiangyang City.
Chapter completed!
