Global Games: I am invincible

next day。

“Set off! ”

With Lu Ming’s order,

800 armed guards began to march towards Jiguo. In order to capture Jiguo’s city, Lu Ming not only brought 60 light artillery, but also took away most of the ammunition. Only some were left

for the 200 soldiers. The armed guards guard Xin’an Town.

The firepower can be said to be very powerful.

Each armed guard has several bamboo tubes hanging on his body. Some of them are gunpowder, some are pellets, some are water, and some are sugar. It is only

fifty miles away.

It can be walked in less than half a day. End.

The so-called troops and horses have not moved yet, food and grass go first.

This is the biggest problem that limits the marching speed.

What Lu Ming wants is a quick victory. Compared with corn, it is more convenient and suitable to carry sugar as military rations. Of course, this is only suitable for the short term. Do it.

If they fail to defeat the following country before the sugar is exhausted, they will retreat simply and never hesitate to fight.

For this battle,

Lu Ming assigned 20 copies of ammunition to each person in the armed guards, and a total of 800 people carried it. 640 kilograms of black powder, each light artillery is allocated 40 rounds of gunpowder.

Each shot uses 200 grams of gunpowder.

A total of 960 kilograms!

A total of 2,400 rounds can be fired!

Also, Lu Ming equipped each person with a bamboo tube The bomb contains 100 grams of gunpowder and a large number of steel balls.

Anyone who is hit at close range will definitely be blown to pieces.

No army or city wall in the cold weapon era can withstand such firepower. Ming spent a lot of money this time. This battle will cost 1,760 kilograms of black powder.

Unless a miracle occurs,

Jiguo will definitely fall into Lu Ming’s hands.

Jiguo.

Also known as Jicheng.

You can see it from a distance. I saw a magnificent city sitting on the ground. The thick city wall was centered on the city gate and extended to both sides. There was no

end visible at a glance.

The wall of Jicheng was about 8 meters high, 5 meters wide at the top and 5 meters wide at the bottom. About 10 meters. Although the interior is made of rammed earth, only the outer layer is made of wall bricks.

But its strength is amazing.

There is an arrow tower at regular intervals on the city wall. If Dacheng or Beishuo want to attack by force, the arrow tower should not be used To destroy it, you must pay a heavy price.

Not to mention inside Jicheng.

The lively scene outside Jicheng alone is far better than anywhere in the Dacheng border. Caravans and people from all directions gathered from all directions, and they were guarded after passing through the city gate. Enter the city after inspection。

“This is Jicheng, it’s really spectacular!”

“It is difficult to see such a majestic city even in Dachengdu!”

“Of course, this city was the capital in the old dynasty。”

“If one were to say where was the safest place on the border, it would be Jicheng. Here there was no need to worry about being plundered by the Beishuo people, nor was there any fear of Dacheng troops approaching the city. It was the most peaceful place. ”

Everyone who came and went marveled at the majesty and prosperity of Jicheng. There were many merchants and merchants in the city selling goods along the street. They were full of pedestrians and it was very lively. On the city wall. The soldiers stationed on the city wall looked into the distance and saw a group of orderly people hundreds of meters

away

. I didn’t know what was being fiddled with, so I immediately became wary.。

“Who is that?”

“Send someone over to see what those people are doing! ”

Five hundred meters away.

60 light artillery were arranged neatly, all aimed at the gate of Jicheng. The cold steel reflected the clear light.。

“Start loading! ”

The commander of the artillery unit gave the order, and the armed guards quickly loaded the black powder into the barrel, and then stuffed an iron artillery shell into it. The

movements were uniform and smooth.

The loading was completed.

The commander resolutely shouted: “Fire! ”

In an instant. Boom,

boom, boom!

Boom!

The sound was like thunder, shocking everyone.

Lu Ming looked at Jicheng. It’s not that he didn’t want to use better combat methods to capture Jicheng, but with his current weapon level, he could only

(Read more novels by visiting our website: Knights Novel) Use such a forceful attack method.

You are not allowed to bring iron weapons into the city.

It is absolutely impossible to bring firearms into the city.

Moreover, with the performance of the flintlock gun, if you wait close to the city wall and then attack the Jicheng defenders, it will really be difficult for their archers and The archery tower is not a decoration.

Within the same shooting range, bows and crossbows are as deadly as bullets.

The number of the armed guards is not large, and Lu Ming will not be stupid enough to let the armed guards die. A direct attack is the only way, and the archery tower must be destroyed first.

Then . Suppress the city wall defenders.

Only in this way can they approach Jicheng safely.

As long as the armed guards can capture the city wall and avoid being surrounded by the archers of the Jicheng defenders, then Lu Ming will have won more than half of the

battle. Stationed at The soldiers on the wall of Ji City saw a burst of white smoke rising in the distance.

They were confused.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Deafening explosions exploded after themselves, and the shells went straight into the towers, and some even hit the tower directly. It fell on the city wall, causing rubble to fly.

The movement was extremely shocking.

All the Jicheng defenders were frightened to death.

Even if they couldn’t figure out what the noise was, there was only one thing they could understand clearly. The city wall The defenders on top roared。

“There are enemy troops attacking the city, go and report it!”

“Pull up the suspension bridge and don’t let the enemy troops enter the city! ”

The sudden change caused chaos among the civilians inside and outside the city. The defenders at the city gate immediately pulled up the suspension bridge, and those who had not yet entered the city could only flee in all directions.。

“Ouch, I haven’t entered the city yet!”

“Quick, quick, get away from the city wall!”

“Didn’t I say that Jicheng was the safest? Why did they start fighting? !”

“Throw the goods away quickly, or your life will be lost if you don’t run away!”

“I have been so unlucky for eight lifetimes that I didn’t fight sooner or later, but now it happened to me. Hurry, run to the south, don’t go to the north! ”

The commander of the artillery unit visually observed that the impact point of the artillery shell was somewhat deviated, and ordered: “Adjust the elevation angle, clear the barrel, and start loading ammunition! ”

Jicheng had just pulled up the suspension bridge, but before the arrow towers on both sides launched a counterattack, the second round of artillery bombardment by the Wuwei Army struck again. This time, it hit the arrow towers right in the middle. Sixty solid shells hit the arrow towers on both sides intensively, even if they were accurate

. It’s not that high, but the victory is that there are enough cannonballs and the target of the watchtower is large enough. One round of shooting is enough to cause effective damage to the watchtower. Boom! Broken bricks flew down in the air, and a window appeared on the baffles of the watchtowers on both

sides

. There was a hole, and the tragic situation inside was unknown. Only screams could be heard.

Although the artillery troops of the Armed Guards effectively hit the arrow towers on both sides, these two rounds of shelling alone did not completely destroy the combat effectiveness of the defenders in the arrow towers.

After two rounds of shelling,

the crossbows in the archery tower finally launched a counterattack, shooting a shower of arrows at the armed guards.

They were hundreds of meters away, and although the crossbows were within reach, they were not that easy to hit. The armed guards, except for the artillery troops, were all hidden. , and the artillery troops were loosely distributed.

In this round of shooting, no one hit.。

“Clear the barrel and start loading! ”

In the face of Jicheng’s counterattack,

the Wuwei army was completely fearless and remained in order.。

“Fire! ”

An order was given.

There was a roar and the shells were flying.

The archery towers on both sides of Jicheng were hit again.

Boom!

A cannonball hit the archery tower from the archery window, destroying a powerful crossbow and also destroying the defenders who were loading the crossbow. The army was also hit.

It was very powerful.
