1664 Great Wall of Flesh
Because standing outside the chest wall is equivalent to facing the artillery fire at the Qing army's city! Within a distance of more than 200 steps, the artillery can be said to be shot in every single shot! Each shell can take away at least three soldiers' lives or limbs!
But facing the influx of Qing soldiers, they did not retreat, and pressed firmly outside the chest wall! Moreover, the commander on the front line was quite wise. He placed the Qing army as close as possible, and kept suppressing the fire rate of the muskets, trying hard to control the Qing army to a distance of 40 or 50 steps!
Within this distance, the artillery on the city head did not dare to fire at all. Because the distance between the two sides was too close, once the artillery fired, half of the shells would probably fall on the heads of their own soldiers! Therefore, the Qing army artillery had shifted its target and turned to bombard the rear of Shandong soldiers!
Seeing the sacrifices made by the comrades in front, the Shandong soldiers behind were also trying hard to speed up! The chest wall quickly became taller, thicker, and longer! Every time a section of fortification was completed, artillery soldiers would enter. As soon as they were in place, they began to shoot flowering bullets at the top of the city!
When Liu Pei saw the first flowering bullet explode outside the wall of Tucheng, he knew that the two Tucheng had obtained it!
Since the first flowering bullet exploded, other flowering bullets have hit Tucheng one after another! After two rounds of shooting, a flowering bullet finally exploded on the top of the city! By chance, this flowering bullet happened to fall into the Qing army's artillery position!
The explosion of the flower bomb killed all the Qing army artillery, not only did it ignited the gunpowder accumulated on the artillery position, causing a second explosion! A thick smoke suddenly rose from the city and pointed directly at the sky! At the same time, the explosion also killed all the Qing army soldiers within seven or eight steps around the artillery position and injured them! None of these people seemed to be intact!
Seeing the black smoke on the top of the city, the Qing soldiers also knew the seriousness of the situation! Under the supervision of the officers, they launched wave after wave of impact! However, Shandong artillery organized a fire blockade line with dense flowering bullets, and all the Qing soldiers rushing over had to withstand the baptism of artillery fire!
When they rushed out of the smoke of gunfire, they were facing dense gun shooting! As a result, they were firmly suppressed to a distance of about forty and nowhere to go.
!For a moment, the corpses piled up and blood flowed into a river!
But Dorgon at the top of the city knew the seriousness of the matter! He shouted loudly: "Let the artillery shoot at the opponent's musketeers! Immediately!"
An officer shouted: "Prince, you will hit your own people! The distance between the two sides is too close!"
Dorgon turned around and slapped him in the face, saying, "Idiot! If those strange artillery cannons are allowed to stand firm, our Tucheng will not be able to be saved! At that time, Shenyang City will be directly besieged! Now send someone to fire the artillery immediately!"
The officers did not dare to neglect and hurriedly sent people to pass orders. However, when the orders arrived at the artillery, the artillery did not dare to fire artillery easily! They were not like Liu Pei's artillery, and they also had the help of the ballistic chart! If the cannon hits his own team, they might be beheaded! So the artillery kept shaking their heads!
But the officer received Dorgon's death order and had to let them fire! He immediately pulled out his waist knife and shouted loudly: "Fire the cannon immediately! Otherwise, military law will deal with it!"
The artillery could only load the artillery helplessly and began to aim. The first round of artillery fired far away without any accident! Because the artillery were afraid of hurting their own people by accident, they loaded more drugs! The shells they fired fell far behind the chest wall, which scared the soldiers transporting sandbags!
However, the landing points of the second round of shells entered a lot! By the third round, two shells successfully entered the ranks of Shandong musket soldiers! Many soldiers were killed and injured by jumping shells! But seven or eight shells fell into the Qing army's team!
This caused a large number of casualties to the Qing army that was charging, and the entire rhythm of the Qing army's attack was chaotic! But the chaos was quickly suppressed by the officers, urging the soldiers to continue charging again! At the same time, the Qing army's bird gun soldiers also rushed over, and among the mixed crowd, they shot at the opposite Shandong soldiers in the form of a squad!
But among the crowd, they couldn't stand steadily, so there was no sufficient accuracy! Besides, if the smoothbore gun could not form a barrage shooting, the hit rate would be pitiful! As a result, they did not kill many opponents, but were beaten to death by the opponent and injured a lot!
At this time, the fourth round of artillery of the Qing army came again, and six shells still fell among the Qing soldiers! You must know that the Qing army was in an attack and the formation was quite dense! These six shells caused huge casualties and immediately dispersed the only remaining morale of the Qing army! They all cried and shouted to retreat!
Although the Qing army retreated, after the two sides set aside, the gunners in the city could feel at ease and boldly bombard the musket soldiers! However, the musket soldiers could not easily leave their current positions, because the Qing army was reorganizing their formation and preparing to kill them again! So they could only use their flesh and blood to force the bombardment of the cannons!
Fortunately, the forward artillery's firing rate is not high, and there are many artillery pieces on the top of the city, so there are not many shells fired in each round! The soldiers can barely withstand it! But the losses are inevitable!
Just like this round of artillery fired, the officer watched a cannonball jump into the crossing lineup and took away the calves of the two people! The two soldiers could not support themselves and fell to the ground, and blood gushed out of the wound, moistening a large area of ground!
Just as he was screaming around him, medical soldiers rushed over to quickly bandage them and stop the bleeding, and then organized people to carry them down! In this case, these rounds of artillery attacks were everywhere! The soldiers fought against the shelling and formed a flesh-and-blood Great Wall with their bodies!
Fortunately, the officer ordered all soldiers to retreat at this time! Because after a long period of construction, the first chest wall had been repaired! The musket soldiers in front were able to retreat. They quickly retreated to the camp through the hole left by the chest wall. As a reward, they would not have to participate in the battle within the next two days.
The newly arrived soldiers and soldiers put the muskets on the chest wall and prepared to counterattack the enemy with their breast wall! At the same time, a large number of mortars were also arranged behind the chest wall. Some of the mortars will continue to bombard the artillery on the city wall, and the other will cooperate with the infantry to defend their positions!
