Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 218

Looking at the gun platform in the open field ahead, Niyaha was a little dazed.

The other two Ba Yala who followed Niyaha were also a little confused, what's the matter?Xuzhou is an important town, so it’s fine if there are densely packed blunderbusses outside the city, but there are so many blunderbusses outside this small county?

Immediately afterwards, Niyaha and the others thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.

Could it be that there are a large number of such blunderbusses outside all the cities of Nanming?
If this is the case, it is very likely that this trip to the south will be in vain, and there will be no benefits.

With a confused look on his face, Niyaha took two other Ba Yala soldiers and walked around the city of Suining County, only to find that there were at least a hundred gun platforms outside the city!

After walking a circle and then going back, we will soon meet the forward army with white flags.

The leader of the army was Xiangbaiqi Gushan Ezhenhe Luohui, and Niyaha dismounted with two Ba Yala and beat a thousand.

After listening to Niyaha's report, He Luohui was also a little dazed, and said, "You mean, Suining, a small county, is also full of blunderbusses like Xuzhou's?"

"Yes." Niyaha said, "There are at least a hundred blunderbusses."

"What, at least a hundred!" He Luohui took a breath.

This matter is a bit tricky. Although the individual defense power of these blunderbusses built by the Ming army is only the same, they can still be taken down at some cost, but there are too many blunderbusses that cannot stand up!
If each gun platform has to pay a certain price, then it can't be tolerated.

So He Luohui didn't dare to do it lightly, and decided to wait for Duoduo to come.

In the evening, Duoduo also rushed over with an army of two white flags and bordered blue flags.

Duduo was also a little dumbfounded looking at the gun platforms scattered all over the city of Suining.

At that moment, Duoduo looked fiercely at Hou Fangyu who was following him, and said angrily, "Why does Suining have a gun platform?"

"Uh?" Hou Fangyu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "My lord, when I returned home from Huai'an Mansion before Xiaosheng, I went to Pizhou on the north bank of the Yellow River, and I didn't pass through Suiding, so I really didn't know."

Duoduo frowned, and then asked: "Then, is there a gun platform in Shanyang?"

"Yes." Hou Fangyu nodded and replied, "And the number is even more than that in Suining County."

"What? Why didn't you say it earlier!" Duoduo was furious, and immediately whipped his horse over.

Hou Fangyu was whipped and hurt to the marrow, but he covered his face and didn't dare to say a word, he only dared to slander from the bottom of his heart, and you didn't ask me this, how do I know whether I should tell you this?Besides, there are hundreds of earthen platforms, what use can they be in front of your Qing soldiers?It's not easy to take it down with a charge.

Duduo became more and more angry, and whipped a few more horsewhips.

Seeing this scene, Fan Chengmo on the other side quietly let out a sigh of relief.

This is all right, it seems that someone will take the whip for him in the future.

Duoduo lashed Hou Fangyu several times, and his anger was exhausted.

Immediately Duoduo called He Luohui to him again, and said with a dark face, "Suining is not Xuzhou, but it is just a small county town. I don't believe it. The blunderbuss platforms in Suining County are as well-equipped and guarded as Xuzhou's blunderbuss platforms. Strict! Send a Niu Lu to take down the frontmost gun platform first."

"Hey!" He Luo would agree.

……

On the tower of Ximen Gate in Suining.

Huaxia was watching Jiannu's formation from a distance.

Hua Xia was secretly relieved when he saw a team of about two or three hundred Jian Nu separated from the formation and pushed a dozen or so chariots towards the gun platform directly in front of him.

Jian Nu's first reaction seemed to be that he had won the bet.

Sure enough, he launched a tentative attack on the nearest gun platform.

Now let's see if the ninety brave men on the gun platform can persevere until the end as he expected?As long as they can persist until the last pawn, there is a high probability that Jiannu will make a detour!

It is worth it to exchange ninety brave men for the safety of the people in a city!

At present, Huaxia sets its sights on the gun platform ahead, you will definitely be able to withstand it!

……

The fight soon began.

He Luohui originally thought that it would be very easy to win a blunderbuss.

So in the first wave of attack, He Luohui did not send half a Niu Lu, but only fifty banner men, because he felt that fifty banner men would be enough.

Fifty banner men put together two chariots and launched an attack on the gun platform.

Jiannu's chariot was too clumsy, with a heavy body and small wheels, so it had to be disassembled when marching, and then loaded on a carriage or a van to take away.

When there is a war, the car is assembled again.

Jian Nu quickly entered within five hundred steps, and the defenders of the gun platform did not respond.

Seeing this, He Luohui laughed. It seems that as Prince Yu expected, although the Ming army in Suining also built gun platforms, the equipment of the Ming army in Suining was completely incomparable with the equipment of the Ming army in Xuzhou. Compare.

Replaced with Xuzhou's blunderbuss platform, the tiger squatting cannon had already hit the head and face.

Pushing all the way to the edge of the trench, the Ming army on the gun platform did not respond.

The Fifty Banners with white flags pushed the cart into the ditch, and then lowered it to the bottom of the ditch.

Then push the chariot to the outside of the protective wall of the gun platform and set up the ladder, and then separate [-] bannermen to climb up the ladder, and the other [-] bannermen stay on the opposite slope and at the bottom of the ditch, using bows and arrows. Provide protection.

However, the Ming army on the blunderbuss platform never showed up, letting the bannermen climb the ladder to the blunderbuss platform.

The Ming army never showed their heads, and the bannermen guarding the bottom of the ditch and on the opposite slope could only stare blankly without firing an arrow.

After a while, the two flagmen jumped into the protective wall first, and then there was a huge shout of killing in the gun platform. Through the protective wall, one could vaguely see fishing nets being thrown and opened, and there were ladles of gold. Juice splashed in the air.

Immediately afterwards, there were two extremely shrill screams, but they stopped abruptly soon.

Immediately afterwards, the two flagmen of the second wave climbed over the parapet again, and the same scene was repeated.

First, the fishing net was thrown upwards and opened, and then a ladle of golden juice was poured over in the air.

In less than a moment, the twenty flagmen were like hamsters queuing up to jump into the sea. One after another, they climbed over the wall and entered the blunderbuss platform. Then there was a huge shout of killing in the blunderbuss platform, followed by a mournful scream But soon the screams and shouts of killing stopped abruptly, as if nothing happened.

But the stench in the air clearly indicated that a fierce battle had just erupted on the gun platform.

"Golden juice, fishing nets, there will probably be lime bags, and no longer standing behind the protective wall!" He Luohui gritted his teeth and said every word, "The same way as the Ming army in Yunlong Mountain!"

Niyaha said in a deep voice: "This way is quite difficult to deal with."

"There's nothing difficult to deal with." He Luohui said with a dark face.

"As long as the adjacent blunderbuss platforms are not equipped with tiger crouching guns and can't pour blunderbuss on our heads, this blunderbuss platform alone is not a problem at all. Sending more people can drown them."

"You lead a group of Ba Yala soldiers, and cooperate with the stone map to flood the gun platform."

If the gun platform here is also equipped with tiger squatting guns and bird guns, it will indeed be very tricky.

But the Ming army here has neither tiger squatting guns nor bird guns, so it is vulnerable. A Niulu Eight Banners soldier is enough to overwhelm the Ming army on the gun platform.

Then the blunderbuss are flooded one by one.

It's nothing more than a waste of time, which is no big deal.

"Hey!" Niyaha shouted, and immediately led a group of Bala soldiers forward.

After receiving the order from He Luohui, Shi Tu immediately increased the number of troops to one cow, and the number of chariots increased from two to twelve at once. Just as He Luohui said, he was going to drown the crowd This gun platform.

The Ming army on the gun platform remained silent, not a single soldier appeared behind the protective wall.

Seeing this, Shi Tu and Niyaha showed a cruel smile on their faces at the same time. These stupid Ming soldiers still stick to Xuzhou's tactics, but they don't know that their death is approaching!
Soon, the first group of bannermen climbed the ladder and rushed to the gun platform, and then climbed over the parapet.

Unsurprisingly, the Ming army on the gun platform threw out the fishing net again, and there was a steady stream of golden juice splashing in the air.

Only this time, the screams and screams on the blunderbuss platform continued for a long time. Obviously, the Ming army on the blunderbuss platform was no longer capable of annihilating the dozen or so Jiannu who rushed up the blunderbuss platform at once.

After two rounds of banners, Niyaha rushed forward with eleven Bala soldiers.

After climbing over the parapet, Niyaha saw that more than half of the twenty-four flagmen who rushed up just now had fallen, and only five or six retreated to the parapet to resist.

"Hoo!" Niyaha opened his hand and shot an arrow.

Ten steps ahead, a Ming soldier was shot in the face and killed on the spot.

The other eleven Baya soldiers drew their bows and fired arrows at the same time, shooting down another thirteen Ming soldiers in an instant.

Yes, you read that right, eleven heavy arrows overturned thirteen Ming soldiers, because two of the heavy arrows pierced through the cheeks of the Ming soldiers in front and then hit the heart of the Ming soldiers in the back, killing both with one arrow!

However, these Ming troops were not intimidated.

Even more than a dozen fishing nets were thrown over while spinning.

One of the fishing nets was placed under Niyaha's hood, and Niyaha quickly made a sideways somersault on the ground, barely rolling to the edge of the fishing net without covering it.

However, before Niyaha got up, a ladleful of golden juice had already been poured over.

There is really no way to avoid this, because the golden juice is splashed in the air in a fan shape, all over the top, bottom, left, and right, leaving no dead space at all, and Niyaha was splashed straight.

A lot was splashed on the legs, body and arms.

There is also a lot of gold juice splashing from the visor into the nose and mouth, making the middle man want to vomit.

But what was even more unbearable was the severe pain from the palms and arms.

Niyaha let out a wail, and the big bow in his hand fell to the ground immediately.

Immediately, paper bags and cloth bags came over one by one, and hit Niyaha and the other Bala soldiers, shattering and cracking at the same time, and the quicklime inside splashed out.

This time it was even more sour, because quicklime splashed in from the eye hole of the visor and fell into Niyaha's eyes.

Although the amount of ashes was very small, Niyaha still felt a sharp burning pain, and now Niyaha wailed more and more terribly, because few people could bear this kind of pain.
