Take the arsenal to Da Ming

Chapter 51 Siege

The officer defending the city was completely dumbfounded, stupid, panicked, and scared. He didn't understand what was going on at all, let alone why the opponent's firepower was so terrifying.

The hastily organized defense was quickly suppressed at the beginning, and now no one dared to take the lead in the area closest to the city gate.

Ye Dacheng would not give the other party time to react. He took the lead and rushed into the city gate with six soldiers at the first time, opening up the passage into the city, and wiped out all the enemy troops who did not have time to escape into the city.

The moment the city gate opened, Tangning also took action with her main force, and quickly rushed towards the city gate. With the help of Ye Dacheng and the others' suppression of the enemies on the city wall, they quickly closed the distance.

More people joined the action to suppress the defenders of the city wall, and two GrW34 mortars were also erected. In order to prevent accidental injuries, they tried to avoid the direction of the city gate.

The main function of GrW34 is to attack the defenders hiding behind the toothed wall, and to destroy the opponent's Fran cannon as much as possible.

The biggest threat to our side right now is the enemy's Franco machine gun, so the machine gun focuses on the places where the muzzle is exposed. A gunner who just tried to aim was directly blown out of his head.

The remaining gunners were terrified and did not dare to take the lead easily.

At this moment, a Fran machine gun exploded without warning, and several gunners surrounding the gun were immediately blown away.

It turned out that a machine gun bullet just penetrated through the muzzle. After wiping out a string of sparks in the chamber of the mother gun, it plunged into the sub-gun of the Franco machine, igniting the propellant in the chamber and causing an explosion.

With a "boom", a Fran cannon couldn't help igniting and firing. The projectile flew out with a whoosh, but it didn't know where it flew.

No way, there is no aimed shooting at all, so it is naturally difficult to control the aim.

The gunner can't control so much, he just wants to keep firing the projectiles, which is better than nothing.

One person immediately took out the sub-cup that fired the gunpowder projectile, put another sub-cup filled with gunpowder projectile into the belly of the mother blunderbuss, and the shooter held the torch and immediately ignited the fuse.

With a bang, another projectile was fired.

It can be seen from this that although the firing speed of the Fran cannon is much worse than that of the GrW34 mortar, it is already very good in this era.

The main reason is the special structure of the Franco cannon. The Franco cannon is mainly composed of three parts: the barrel, the belly, and the sub-cannon.

The structure of the mother gun and the child gun is adopted. The mother gun is the barrel, including the barrel and the belly; the child gun is a small fire gun, which is mainly loaded with gunpowder and projectiles.

When firing the gun, the gunpowder pellets are first loaded into the sub-cannon, and then the sub-cannon is loaded into the belly of the cannon, and the sub-cannon fire door can be fired.

Each mother gun can be equipped with four to nine sub-guns, and the sub-guns can be loaded with ammunition for backup before starting a battle. When fighting, one sub-gun is first loaded into the belly of the mother gun.

Because of this, the Franc cannon is also known as the mother-child cannon.

After firing, the empty gun is taken out and replaced with another loaded gun.

Repeating this way saves the time for temporary loading, and the rate of fire is naturally greatly improved.

With a bang, another Fran cannon also fired blindly. Although it missed the charging soldiers, the splashing mud and rocks wounded two soldiers.

"Blow it up..." Tangning snorted coldly, she didn't care about capturing these cannons anymore.

In his heart, the value of these cannons is not as good as the lives of the first batch of trained soldiers, even if the opponent's accuracy is poor, but in case of bad luck.

The GrW700 deployed 34 meters away, beyond the effective range of the Franco cannon, aimed immediately.

With a bang, the gunner made a test shot first, but failed to hit the target directly. The shell jumped over the top of the city and entered the city.

The first gunner made a quick fine-tuning, and the second gunner immediately fired another round.

It still didn't hit the target directly, but it hit the top of the city, and the two soldiers were thrown off the top of the city amidst the earth and rocks flying.

A gunner fine-tuned again, and the third shell was fired immediately.

With a bang, the flames flashed on the top of the city, and a long gun barrel jumped up, then rolled over and fell from the top of the city.

"Boom boom boom..." For a while, the gunfire continued, and GrW34 fired rapidly, and the shells exploded on the top of the city from time to time, causing the defenders to flee in panic.

Although the opponent's firepower was ferocious before, but at least there was a wall of teeth to cover them. As long as they didn't take the initiative to show their heads, the danger was not great.

But at this moment, the opponent's artillery seems to have eyes, and it is specially aimed at the top of the city, and it is so powerful that it can explode a large area, who can bear it.

Immediately, the guarding officer could no longer stop the soldiers from disintegrating, and his voice was drowned out by the sound of artillery.

At this time, Ye Dacheng had already gathered 16 people in the passageway into the city, and they were the first group of disguised personnel driving two mules and carriages, each of them carrying an MP40.

Ye Dacheng did not immediately order an attack, but deployed his troops on both sides of the corridor.

Under the cover of our own firepower, more people began to enter the tunnel.

When the two soldiers who arrived at the city gate were about to rush into the corridor, they felt their clothes tighten on their backs. When they looked back, they were dragged by their companions.

"Be careful……"

As soon as the words fell, a rolling log fell from the sky above the city gate, hitting the ground with a muffled bang.

Seeing this scene, the two soldiers couldn't help but their hearts tightened violently, and then they kept beating non-stop.

Fortunately, he was dragged by his comrades, otherwise, wouldn't he have been smashed into meatloaf?

The soldiers following behind all slowed down their pace, looked up vigilantly towards the direction of the tower, did not see anyone appearing, but saw another rolling log appearing in the field of vision little by little.

It seemed that someone was hiding behind the toothed wall and pushed the log down, which was a means.

The machine guns and artillery of one's own side dare not attack the city tower directly, for fear of accidentally injuring one's own people, so they gave the other side an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Stand back." A soldier who was startled just now gave a deep shout and pulled a grenade from his waist.

Seeing this, the others immediately backed away for a certain distance and crouched down.

After waiting for the log to fall, the soldier immediately unscrewed the cover of the grenade, pulled out the fuse, and yanked it.

Immediately, a plume of blue smoke rose from the cover of the wooden handle of the grenade. The soldier ran up and threw the grenade towards the tower.

Seeing that the grenade jumped over the toothed wall and entered the tower, the soldier immediately lowered his head with his hands in his hands.

With a "boom", the grenade thrown into the tower exploded directly.

"Ah..." A painful scream came.

The soldier immediately waved back, indicating that his comrades could act, and the group got up and rushed into the corridor.

The warrior was the last to enter, because his attention was still on the tower, in case any escaped fish made a surprise attack.

Seeing that there were already more than thirty people, Ye Dacheng turned his head to signal to a soldier beside him, who immediately ran to the gate of the city and began to wave two command flags.

Tangning has been paying attention to the actions here, and when she saw it, she immediately shouted, "Stop the bombardment."
