Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 370: This is the time to show off the power of our army (Part )
"Are you afraid?" With a cry of a warbler, Yumhargas appeared in front of Sumur carrying a long bow.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

"I came to see my husband kill the enemy."

"Hmph, I guess you want to see me defeated so that you can fish in troubled waters and revive Junggar." The King of Liao snorted from his nostrils.

"For the sake of Junggar, I really hope you defeat. Only if you lose, the Junggar people will have a chance; but for myself, I hope you can win. If you lose, I can only marry that bad old man Subadi." Yumhagasi's voice was like complaining, with a hint of deep sorrow.

These words aroused Sumur's anger, "Don't worry, that bad old man will never have a chance." After saying that, he took off the long arrow and pulled the string to the full. The carved feather arrow carried a whistling sound and shot a The Khalkha warriors were shot down from their horses.

Seeing that most of the trenches had been filled, Zasak Tuhan Subadi calmly ordered a "change of formations", and the cavalry squads in twos and threes quickly gathered into teams of hundreds and thousands.

"Attack the city", the old Khan's eyes flashed with coldness, and the previous kindness was no longer there, only the king's domineering military orders were left.

"Woo~wu~wu~"

The sound of the horn sounded like a reminder, and the ladder trucks advanced slowly. The Khalkha soldiers behind the ladders were either hiding behind the ladder trucks or holding large shields made of double-layer wooden boards. Teams of archers or gunmen followed. , in small groups, approach the city wall to shoot and cover.

"shoot!"

The guards at the top of the city started shooting, and the whistling of arrows and bullets could be heard everywhere.

Amur ran towards the city with a double-layered plank of wood and a large shield made of cotton. He was originally an adak (inferior person) from the Zasak Tu tribe. He did not know why he wanted to fight, so the Great Khan ordered The levy was summoned. As an ant-like Adak, this kind of thing happens often. He does not believe that war is a bad thing, but rather that it is a good opportunity to change one's destiny and plunder the spoils of war.

The large shield is made of birch board and is very thick. The simple Khalkha people did not draw any fancy patterns on their shields, but they were simple and practical. Several arrows hit the large shield and could not penetrate.

"Bah~bah~bah~"

The guard's three-eyed musket began to fire. It was more powerful than a bow and arrow. It could penetrate heavy armor at close range, but it still could not penetrate this simple and thick double-layer wooden shield.

Amul only felt that the big shield in his hand was shivering after being shot, but he was still safe. He couldn't help but feel refreshed. He would definitely grab more valuables for his mother-in-law when he invaded the village later! The thought was beautiful, but he didn't realize that he was being targeted.

Ao Dun, the chief of the guard army, flattened the holder of the big bird gun, narrowed his eyes, and aimed at him. Ao Dun was originally a soldier of the Heshuote tribe in Qinghai. After returning to the guard, he could get military pay, eat well, and get a promotion. Therefore, he was very satisfied and planned to make military exploits. Behind him, there was a policeman holding a merit book and a sword to supervise. If someone made a meritorious service, he would write it down, and if someone escaped from the battle, he would be stabbed.

The big bird gun in his hand was made by the skilled craftsmen of the Arms Department of the Ministry of War, imitating the "Eagle Gun" of the Rumi Kingdom (Ottoman Turkish Empire) and the "Bird Gun" of the Ming Dynasty. It is about two meters long and has an effective range of up to Two hundred steps (about three hundred meters). After it was made, it is said that His Majesty the Emperor personally fired a few shots and was very satisfied with it and thought it was a powerful weapon in the military. Originally, the craftsmen named this gun "Zanbarak", but His Majesty loved the gun so much that he personally gave it the royal name "Sultan". Good guy, named after the emperor, it shows how seriously he is taken!

Although this kind of big bird gun is extremely powerful and has a long range, it is very heavy and difficult to rely on a person's back. It is not practical for the Ming army who lacks war horses. They prefer to use lightweight fire guns. But for the guards with many horses, it is not difficult to use heavy muskets. The reason why Emperor Qianyuan insisted on equipping this kind of heavy musket was because he knew that in the war between the Junggars and the Manchus in another time and space, this kind of big bird gun caused huge damage to the Eight Banners Army due to its fierce firepower and long range. As for the problems of cumbersome and cumbersome manufacturing process, it doesn’t matter and can be improved gradually.

The Sultan Big Bird Gun has been improved many times and now has three models. The one in Ao Dun's hand is the "Sultan Type 3". Different from the previous two models that require a match rope to ignite, this is a self-generating fire gun, equipped with a flint automatic ignition device. It is not afraid of wind and rain and does not need to be ignited in advance. The firing speed and accuracy are greatly improved, but due to the high cost and Issues such as the misfire rate were opposed by many ministers. "Use it first, and if there are shortcomings, you can slowly improve it later." Under the strong push of His Majesty the Emperor, this kind of gun was still equipped to the Guards. The King of Liao's army was equipped with large bird blunderbuss, of which were self-generated fire blunderbuss. "Bang", Ao Dun pulled the trigger, and a large projectile, with the sound of death, shot through the first layer of wood, the middle layer, and the second layer of the shield, leaving a big hole on Amul's forehead. Bullet holes.

"Plop", another insignificant Adak was missing from the Zasak team.

The fighting became more and more intense, and soldiers kept pouring onto the city and were driven back down again and again.

The Liao King's shirt had turned blood red, and with a fierce slash, a Khalkha's body was dismembered. He put the knife away in his hand and found that Yumhagas behind him also began to shoot arrows at the Khalkha people who rushed to the city. His eyes suddenly became much warmer. This woman finally chose to be with him!
Madal, the fierce general of Zasaktu tribe, climbed onto the north wall of Muzhai and shouted "Gugui" to summon his companions. A large number of Khalkha soldiers then climbed onto the wall and occupied a large climbing point on the north wall. "Gugui~Gugui~Gugui~" The voices of Khalkha warriors calling their companions could be heard everywhere on the north wall.

"It's not easy! Finally a breakthrough!"

The white-haired Zasak Tukhan Suba sighed deeply and said to Ombu Erdeni, Hang Tudai, and Norbu: "This is the time to establish an offensive. Go and let the Oirat people see the Kawasaki." The sharpness of Erkha's saber".

"Yes!"

The three men took the order and each led their own troops to attack the northern city in a fierce manner.

On the city wall, Sumur saw that the enemy was overwhelming and coming with overwhelming force, and knew that the opponent had already dispatched its final reserve team.

"Hmph! These Khalkha people are quite barbaric, and they are not afraid of death in battle!" he praised.

"Can't we hold on anymore?" Seeing how ferocious the enemy was, Yumhagasi's face changed color.

"No, on the contrary, the enemy will be defeated at this time." Sumur showed a strange smile and ordered: "Light the beacon and send a signal outside the city."

The guards lit a beacon fire at the top of the wall, and thick smoke billowed.

In the mountains to the north of the stockade, the guardsmen Du Qianhubu and Artu and his three thousand men were recharging their strength.

"Du Qianhu, look, there's a signal coming from the city," a sergeant pointed at the beacon and said.

"Warriors, His Royal Highness the King of Liao ordered us to attack. Warrior David is advancing but not retreating. Follow me forward." After saying this, Bu and Artu rode away with their guns drawn.

"Ta~ta~ta~" The three thousand warriors shot at the enemy like three thousand sharp arrows.
