Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 677 Kyushu Battle 2
Amid Yang Menglong's roar, the Transformers fleet began its second salvo.More than 160 rockets poured out, and the tail flames emitted by the burning collodion formed a blazing curtain of fire that swept over the coastline and covered the Satsuma clan's troops.

It is very miraculous that these more than 160 rockets have all scored into Kagoshima Castle.A wall of flames rises from the ground, amidst thunder and lightning, the gust of wind wraps the flames in a circular and overwhelming spread, enclosing one block after another into the flame vortex.The blown cherry trees were uprooted, civil structures collapsed, and houses made of bark burned like matchboxes. Countless Kagoshima residents struggled and wailed in the raging fire.Seeing the purgatory flames, the faces of the Dutch and Japanese were pale. Yang Menglong was so angry that he jumped his feet. His grandma fired more than 300 rockets. The rockets are all for nothing!

Considering that the rockets are consumed very quickly, and the level of these rocket shooters is really a bit apologetic, Yang Menglong angrily ordered the rockets to stop firing. He must reserve enough rockets for the next battle, wasting too much in Kagoshima No way.

"120 gun, fire!"

With an order, the three 120mm rifled guns located on the bow pointed their cannons at the fort, and were about to shoot, but saw the Japanese soldiers inside the fort holding their heads and screaming and escaped from the inside, rolling and crawling to escape. Go down to the high ground and escape.The gunner was stunned, I haven't even fired yet, why are you running?

They didn't fight, but the terrifying scene of two rounds of rocket fire, like a volcanic eruption, had frightened the soldiers of the Satsuma clan in the fort. They finally ran away without hesitation when the rocket fire stopped. When he came out, the soles of his feet flew up and down, raising a cloud of smoke and dust, like a galloping horse, with that kind of speed, that kind of passion, that kind of desire for sunshine and life, even if he invited Bolt, he would have to kneel down!
Yang Menglong blinked and blinked his eyes: "Why are they all running away? It's really useless!" Shrugged, and said to Wu Sheng: "You come to direct, I won't play anymore, it's boring!"

Wu Sheng said in his heart: "It's time for me to come!" He turned his head and said to the flag bearer: "Sign out the flag, let the tiger battalion land, and establish an outpost!"

The flag signal was sent out, and 200 heavily armored Oroqen tiger soldiers, armed with strong bows and spears, boarded sixty small boats and soared towards the dock like arrows off the string.These tiger soldiers were all captured in the Battle of Lushun. After being sent to Shandong, they were trained to death by Wu Sheng for nearly a year. They were extremely powerful in combat, but after receiving almost cruel training, they became It was even more terrifying. The armor on each person's body weighed sixty kilograms. In addition to the tiger spear and engineer shovel made of high manganese steel, the weapons they used also included a strong bow and forty sharp arrows. In this way, they all Still have room to carry six grenades.Someone also brought a short-handled hammer weighing eight pounds, which was specially used to deal with those iron cans.In addition, there are sleeping bags, dry food, water bags, kumiss, raincoats and other equipment. Adding up the bits and pieces, each tiger soldier can carry at least [-] kilograms!Carrying such heavy equipment can still run like flying, which makes people marvel at the physical strength of these barbarians.The training in Denglai New Army is naturally very difficult, but the tiger soldiers feel that it is like paradise here. They have strong wine, fresh meat, delicious vegetables and fruits every day, and there is a hospital when they are sick. These are in the white mountains and black waters. It was unimaginable. Many tiger soldiers approached Wu Sheng, hoping to return to their hometown and bring their family and friends. After careful consideration, Wu Sheng agreed and allowed more than [-] tiger soldiers to secretly return to the Northeast via North Korea. Bring your relatives here.Before the expedition, some tiger soldiers had returned to Shandong with their relatives and friends. I believe that it will not be long before the strength of the tiger barracks will be doubled.

However, these tiger soldiers are no longer as simple and honest as they were in Shandong. Everyone pursed their lips and rowed hard. The taste of the four-stone pulley compound bow -- this thing can pierce the belly of a cow with a single arrow at sixty steps. Even if there is a pulley labor-saving device, it is not easy for ordinary people to pull it apart, but for these tiger soldiers, this is not easy. count.

The one-year training is still very effective. Even when they are rowing, the Tiger Battalion consciously maintains their formation, instead of rushing like before.The sixty warships were lined up in three rows, with twenty paces between the ships, leaving plenty of space to avoid being bombarded and rammed into a ball.Seeing this scene, Shimadzu Nurshi frowned again, and asked a retainer beside him uncertainly: "This...is this really the army of the Ming Dynasty? Why don't I look like it at all?"

When that retainer was young, he led a group of bankrupt samurai to plunder the coastal areas of China. The wealthy people and the beggar-like army in the coastal areas of China left a very deep impression on him, even though Japan was in Ren Chen Zhan was defeated by the Ming army, but it didn't change his contempt for the Ming army. It's just a group of beggars. What's so scary?However, the Tiger Barracks shattered his arrogance. Seeing the Tiger soldiers leaping up a few meters away from the coast and jumping steadily onto the land, he felt a lot of pressure. He said nonchalantly: "They have nothing but flags and Except that the Ming army is the same, there is nothing similar to the Ming army..."

More and more tiger soldiers rushed to the pier, and the shining armor light merged into a sea of ​​metal, which made the Japanese samurai's complexion turn pale.Looking at those metal fortress-like tiger soldiers, and looking at the samurai sword in his hand, he became more and more discouraged—it didn't look like he could chop these tin cans.However, their cross spears can still be tried, provided that these pikemen with only leather armor can rush to these iron cans alive.Shimazu Nushi gritted his teeth and said, "Changyong, go ahead, drive these Ming dogs back to the sea, and take back the fort! Baga, let me catch the guys guarding the fort, chop them up and throw them into the sea Don’t feed the fish!” Just now, the scrambling and scrambling behavior of the fort defenders to escape from the position exploded his lungs, and he just wanted to kill.The fort is lost, what will he use to defend Kagoshima Castle!
The short Changyong shouted "Hey", got on his horse, raised his cross gun and pointed it towards the dock, shouting: "Iron artillery team, pikemen, and loyal and brave warriors of the Shimadzu family, follow me!" Riding the horse! Run towards the pier.Two thousand soldiers of the Satsuma domain, armed with blunderbuss, long bows, bamboo spears and long knives, followed quickly. Everyone looked nervous, even a little confused, but there was no fear on their faces.This is also due to the national situation. Now the entire Japan is in the stage of rising national power. The style of samurai is extremely strong. Everyone is brave and cruel, and they care about life and death. They are just a pack of wolves. No matter how powerful the enemy is, they dare to pounce on it and bite it.

Shen Tingyang asked Wu Sheng nervously, "Do you want to fire support?"

Wu Sheng shook his head: "No, the tiger soldiers can deal with them!" He turned his head again and gave an order to the flag bearer: "Sign the flag and let Yuan Zongdi prepare!"

The semaphore was hung up again, and the sailors worked together to lower the boats one after another. The archers of the Criminal Legion silently arranged their equipment and boarded the boat with knives, bows and crossbows.

At this time, the troops led by Chang Yong had approached only 400 meters away from the tiger soldiers. The tiger soldiers remained silent, but silently inserted the tiger spear with a spike at the end obliquely on the ground, and raised their strong bows.

Chang Yong was secretly surprised, isn't this Ming army too calm?This battle is not easy to fight!As soon as he raised his cross spear, the Japanese army howled loudly, accelerated suddenly, and rushed towards the Tiger Barracks. A wave of people suddenly rolled up on the flat ground.Yang Menglong was a little surprised and called out: "You charge directly without even probing?"

Wu Sheng pursed his lips and said, "It's just a tactic. Their bluffs and longbows are not capable of shooting. They have to accelerate to [-] steps in front of our army before they can shoot. Otherwise, shooting is useless. Of course, if they can bluff to lure the enemy It will be even more wonderful if the firecrackers shoot first."

Yang Menglong chuckled: "It's a beautiful idea!"

At this time, there was a sharp whistling sound from the pier, and a sharp arrow tied with a red string shot out. It was inserted a hundred meters away, and the red string danced in the wind, which was very conspicuous.This arrow marks the shooting range——100 meters, which is the best killing distance for the four-stone pulley compound bow in the hands of the tiger soldiers.Although the Japanese army didn't know the power of the pulley compound bows in the hands of these bloodthirsty tiger soldiers, they also knew that the opponent was marking the shooting range. They let out terrible roars in their throats and gritted their teeth to speed up against the arrowheads pointed at them.The feeling of rushing head-on to the arrow array will naturally not be wonderful, but they have nothing to do. The more afraid they are at this time, the faster they will die. The only way to survive is to pass through the firepower net of the enemy archers as soon as possible. So, bite the bullet let's go!

The surging crowd passed the arrow tied with a red string.

The general of the Tiger Battalion roared, "Fire the arrow!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh———

There was a whistling sound, and the triangular arrowhead turned into dots of cold stars, and flew towards the Japanese samurai, and immediately screamed loudly!The lasing arrowheads violently tore apart the thin and small body of the Japanese samurai. The front chest went in and the back chest came out, bringing out a cloud of blood. Feet off the ground and flew backwards!
Before the first wave of arrow rain fell, the second wave of metal storms came again, and thousands of sharp arrows were shot out like the wind. The charging Japanese warriors fell down again, and many wounded who fell to the ground screaming from the arrows were even worse. Being directly nailed to the ground by a sharp arrow, the person was completely dead, and his body was still slightly convulsed.The protective equipment of Japanese samurai is really bad. A pair of leather armor is considered luxurious equipment, and bamboo armor is also so-so, and more people only have coarse clothes. Such equipment is like running naked in front of the rain of arrows pouring out of the Tiger Barracks. What's the difference?The experience of the Mongolian army in Polu City was repeated on the Japanese samurai, and the Japanese samurai were worse than the Mongolian army. The Mongolian army still had leather armor. They didn't even have this, they could only scream!The rain of arrows is howling, continuous, and the death storm sweeps across the battlefield. Every second, piles of people fall down. The screams and blood splatter make the hearts of the warriors who are lucky enough to miss the arrow tremble, and their footsteps cannot help themselves. Hesitant down.

Chang Yong yelled: "Don't stop! Speed ​​up! If you stop here, you will only be shot at by others. Samurai of the Shimadzu family, the time has come to prove your courage and loyalty. Go——" A sharp arrow It was nailed into his chest, and a large section was exposed from the back, sealing his words.However, his rhetoric inspired the courage of the Japanese warriors. Facing the rain of arrows, they rushed forward with closed eyes on the bloody bodies of the dead and injured, and crossed the dead line until they reached 50 meters.The iron gunner who was protected in the middle passed the spearman at the fastest speed and appeared at the forefront, raising the bird gun.The ten rounds of arrow rain in the Hu Bingying caused too much damage to them. Everyone was red-eyed, wishing to beat these hateful guys into a sieve!

The rain of arrows came to an abrupt end.

Yajiro Bingwei, who replaced Changyong's command, was overjoyed and howled: "They have no strength to open their bows! The Iron Cannon Team——"

The roar formed by more than 1000 voices drowned out the sound, and all the Japanese samurai widened their eyes in horror!

A wall of iron and steel slammed into them!

Under the horrified eyes of the Japanese samurai, the tiger soldiers threw down their pulley compound bows, raised their tiger guns, lined up in three rows and slammed into the Japanese army at a speed of [-] meters!
My God, are these guys still human? They can still sprint [-] meters in such heavy armor!

Yajirobei howled: "Shoot, shoot!"

The Iron Cannon team pulled the trigger almost unconsciously, bang bang bang bang!Gunshots sounded like popping beans, hitting the tiger soldiers' breastplates with a clang, and some tiger soldiers fell down, but the large army did not turn their heads, and just rushed forward with all their strength!

In the next second, the chests of most of the gunmen of the Iron Cannon Team were pierced by the oncoming gun blades, and their thin bodies flew backwards with a rain of blood.
