Chapter 852 Beginning: Artillery Battle

Chapter 852 Beginning: Artillery Battle
After seeing Lang Qing's right arm raised high, he waved it down heavily.

Ye Hao, also known as Ying Qi, weighs 230 kilograms and looks very strong, but in fact he is a bit chubby and a newbie.

He immediately covered his left ear with his left hand and held a burning pine tar torch in his right hand.

He moved closer to the exposed fuse on the fire door of a two-thousand-pound cannon in front of him.

As a result, there was no way to cover the right ear. Fortunately, it was blocked with a small ball of rags in advance to prevent it from being directly deafened by the loud sound of the cannon.

As for why the left ear was not blocked, it was because he still had one ear left to listen to Lang Qing's orders.

No!Soon after, there was a loud noise that was still loud even if you covered your ears; even if the wooden wheels were cushioned by sandbags, the gun carriage immediately jumped up and took a big step back.

It wasn't until several ropes and vines used for fixation were tightened that it was completely pulled and stopped.

At the same time, in the loud noise of the cannon, Yingqi, who had blocked his ears, also felt that there was some buzzing in his head.

Damn it!He did expect that this thing would be louder after firing, but it was definitely not expected that it would make such a sound.

It's just that at this time, he couldn't care less about it.

The reason for concern is whether the six-pound iron weight fired can hit the Yin artillery below, attract more attention of the Yin artillery, and reduce the pressure on Hu Biao and the others.

Because after their investigations and statistics over the past few days, they found that the Yin army had a total of 83 artillery pieces at the foot of the mountain.

The largest caliber is 32 pounds, and the smallest is 6 pounds.

Originally, they all aimed at Panlonggang. As long as the people on the mountain planned to get closer, they would rely on muskets with a longer range to kill them.

Immediately, several artillery pieces will come over and provide fire coverage.

This is also the biggest reason why Hu Biao and the others are only missing the kill data of 40 to [-] people, but until today, they are unable to unlock the space equipment.

These Yin Army bandits are bad enough, but they are not stupid at all.

And today, because there are more than [-] people in the Yangcheng area, the Yin army has been tightly surrounded.

With the fear in their hearts, they turned the muzzles of the 23 artillery pieces and aimed them at the civilians; the remaining [-] guns continued to aim at the hills.

The existence of these artillery is a huge threat to Hu Biao and others who have already begun to take action, as well as to the common people.

Therefore, those who stay on the fort need to destroy and attract their firepower as much as possible...

In the eyes of Shadow Cavalry and others, with extremely expectant eyes, a six-pound iron ball drew an arc in the air and hit an artillery position at the two o'clock direction.

Unfortunately, the iron ball fell to the ground seventeen or eighteen meters away from the position.

After a burst of mud and sand splashed, it bounced up and rolled forward for a certain distance, and finally stopped completely. Not even a single hair of the Yin Army was injured.

Even if he knew that this shot was a test firing, the greater role was to let Lang Qing understand the trajectory of these artillery pieces.

For a moment, Shadow Rider was still a little disappointed with such a result.

Mainly because of this cannon, the artillerymen of the Yin army below were immediately alerted and no longer cared about Hu Biao and others who rushed down; they are currently adjusting the muzzle of the cannon frantically. I believe that soon there will be a large number of explosive shells. Say hello to the fort.

In short, there is not much time left for them.

Just when Shadow Cavalry was feeling a little disappointed because the shot failed to hit the target.

A foot had already kicked him over, staggering him, and then cursed: "What are you doing standing still? Hurry up and continue filling."

After scolding, Lang Qing had already rushed a few meters away, adjusting another loaded cannon there.

It's not that Lang Qing has a bad temper, but that he can't care about so much at this moment.

After hearing such a sentence, not only Shadow Cavalry, but also the two rookie village rookies Han Jiang and Shouzheng Taoist who were in charge of an artillery piece with him also realized that now was not a good time to be in a daze.

Immediately, Hanjiang took a bristle brush stained with water and hurriedly thrust it into the barrel of the cannon.

Immediately with the sound of "Bah~", a line of white smoke rose up. At the same time, Han Jiang, whose hand was burned, also twisted his mouth.The main reason is that this profession in the modern dimension is actually a rookie who is sent by a certain U to send errand boys. I didn't expect that this thing would be a hit and it would be so hot.

If you are not careful, you will be hit.

And after Hanjiang pulled out the brush in his hand.

Ignoring the burn on the back of his hand, he replaced the brush in his hand with a stick with a piece of cloth tied to one end.

Because the Taoist Keeper had already taken a bag of gunpowder wrapped in silk, about three kilograms of gunpowder, and stuffed it into the muzzle of the cannon; he needed to go down with a stick, push the gunpowder bag to the bottom, and beat it tightly.

After the Taoist Shou Zheng stuffed another solid cannonball into the muzzle, Shadow Cavalry pushed the stick down again and pounded the cannonball tightly.

During this process, Shadow Cavalry was not idle either.

An awl was inserted through the fire door, and after piercing the silk gunpowder bag, a fuse was installed.

The three generals completed the loading, and Lang Qing also completed the adjustment of the other three artillery pieces with a wave of his hand.

The fuses on the three artillery pieces were lit immediately.

A second or two later, amid the louder gunfire, Yingqi and the other three people had no time to cover one ear, and their heads were buzzing again from the sound.

Fortunately, this time the three shells were fired at the same artillery position.

Although there was still one shot that missed the edge of the position, two shots still hit the target.

One of the iron hammers directly hit the chest and abdomen of a Yin soldier who was on guard with a musket. The astonishing impact immediately smashed into a huge blood mist.

Later, the remaining shells continued to move forward, knocking over two more people before stopping.

The other shot hit a 12-pound cannon of the Yin Army with unusual precision. It immediately lifted the cannon from the sports car and knocked over several people who were working around it.

Upon seeing this, Yingqi immediately burst into cheers.

Just a second later, the wolf yelled "get down", and at the same time grabbed Yu Hong beside him and fell to the ground.

Those were the other 22 artillery pieces of the Yin Army. The artillery pieces facing this side also opened fire one after another at very short intervals.

The ability of these Yin artillerymen to calculate ballistics is naturally not as good as that of Lang Qing; but they can't stop them from summoning more shells, and the key will explode after hitting the ground.

At Lang Qing's reminder, his instinct was to lie down on the ground and hug the shadow rider's head.

In the blink of an eye, a dense explosion was heard, including three or four shells, which even fell very close to them.

In the explosion, large swaths of sand were lifted up and hit them all over, causing pain.

A few seconds later, the shadow rider felt that he had been kicked, and Lang Qing's words came to his ears again: "Are you dead? Those who are not dead, get up and fire."

"What the hell! The donkeys of the production team wouldn't use them to death like this."

After making such remarks, Shadow Cavalry still quickly climbed up from the ground.

Then, when he accidentally saw that Lang Qing, who had just rushed over and slapped the fire brand, had blood on his forehead, he was immediately frightened.

Immediately he couldn't help but ask: "Brother, are you okay?"

"He was hit on the forehead by a flying stone. It's a trivial matter that can't kill anyone."

After lifting up his dirty sleeves and wiping the blood that flowed into his eyes, Lang Qing said this lightly.

This allowed rookies like Shadow Cavalry to clearly understand how dangerous this artillery battle would be.

Ten seconds later, the artillery sounded again, and after a ball was sent out, it smashed into an artillery position...
