I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

She was practicing "walking" which she hadn't done since her injury.

She is trying to rejuvenate her "rusty" body due to lying down for a long time.

next day

The 10th day of the attack and defense of Red Moon Fortress

The 12th day when Ogata left the Red Moon Fortress

Red Moon Fortress, inner city wall

"It's really cold today." Lin Ziping rubbed his palms.

"Today's weather is not very good." Chanup standing next to Lin Ziping looked up at the sky, "Look, there are layers of dark clouds, and it is very likely that there will be wind and snow."

"If there is a snowstorm, it will be troublesome." Lin Ziping smiled wryly, "Once there is a snowstorm, our muskets will be useless."

It was the habit of Chanup, Lin Ziping and the others these days to climb up the inner city wall to observe the enemy troops outside the city at dawn.

At this moment, the sky was already bright, but because of the thick dark clouds covering it, the sky was a little dark.

On the inner and outer walls of the Red Moon Fortress, every soldier has taken his position at his respective position, but the peace army outside the city has not launched an attack for a long time.

These days, the Japanese army's attack time has been fairly fixed.

But today, the attack time of the past has long passed, and the Hejun camp outside the city is still quiet.

All the soldiers on the inner and outer city walls were slightly agitated by today's strange scene.

And Lin Ziping had already frowned and muttered softly:

"Something is wrong, why have we not launched an attack at this time?"

Maybe it's a coincidence.

Just after Lin Ziping finished speaking, there was finally movement in the military camp, but it was not like before, with the sound of conch shells and thousands of soldiers rushing out of the military camp.

Only a small group of people walked out of the barracks at a slow speed.

Lin Ziping frowned more tightly at this moment.

With excellent eyesight, he narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the small group of people who came out of the barracks.

Looking intently, Lin Ziping saw that some members of this small team were pushing a big thing that made Lin Ziping's hair stand on end immediately.

The thing they're pushing is a cannon.

"Mr. Chanup! Do you have any good archers here? Shoot those people back!"

Inamori's entire army consisted of only 9 cannons and 52 cannons of various types. Under Inamori's order, they dispatched all the cannons and cannons they had.

Under the escort of some soldiers, the gunners and gunners successfully came out of the shooting range of the archers and musketeers in the fortress, and at the same time they were as close as possible to the position of the Red Moon Fortress.

The whole army

"Today's weather is not very good." Inamori raised his head, looked at the dark sky above his head, and muttered.

The sky covered by layers of dark clouds above his head made Inamori feel extremely unhappy. He was just about to use firearms today, but the sky was not good.

"Don't let the wind and snow fall"

As soon as Inamori finished saying this in a prayerful tone, an orderly rushed towards him.

"Master Inamori!" The orderly said respectfully, "Everyone is in their positions!"

Inamori nodded: "Okay!"

He turned his head and looked at the fortress in the distance.

He took a deep breath, and then waved his army with great momentum:

"Fire! Blow down the city walls!"

The order to fire was quickly conveyed to the artilleryman, Datongshou, who was now standing at the forefront.

With a little clumsy movements, they stuffed gunpowder and shells into the cannons and cannons they were in charge of, aimed at the fortress in the distance, and then

boom!boom!boom!boom

Nine cannons and 9 large cylinders roared almost at the same time.

In this era of Japan, the accuracy of the artillery and large cylinders used is extremely poor, so a row of shells hit the past, only 3 shells fired from the large cylinder, and 1 shell fired from the artillery hit the outer city wall of the Red Moon Fortress , the remaining shells only hit the snow outside the city wall.

Instantly shake the mountain.

The soldiers on the outer city wall felt the city wall shaking under their feet and felt the world shaking

As for the snow field that was taken care of by most of the shells, the snow on the ground disappeared and they burst open. The snow was smashed, crushed, and torn into pieces, and the snow blocks fell like raindrops.

Inamori has made up his mind to take down the Red Moon Fortress within a day today, so he spared no expense on the artillery shells and gunpowder reserves in the army. The hands let go.

Round after round of shells poured towards the outer wall of the Red Moon Fortress.

Although the accuracy is extremely poor, coupled with long-distance shooting, there are only a handful of shells that hit the city wall, but under rounds of shells, some shells can always hit the city wall.

Every time the city wall was hit by shells, the soldiers on the outer city wall clearly felt that the city wall was shaking and shaking more and more violently.

On the Red Moon Fortress, the counterattack had already started before the Hejun started shelling.

Chanup gathered the best archers and musketeers, let them stand on the outer city wall, and shoot those artillerymen and musketeers.

However, the distance is too far, and the arrows of the archers can't shoot such a long distance at all.

The musketeers' projectiles could barely hit that place but the accuracy was too poor. Whether they could hit such a far place depends entirely on God's will.Until now, the musketeers had not hit a single enemy soldier.

The air became acrid and pungent with heavy gun smoke and fog.

The smoke with the smell of gunpowder makes people feel a bitter taste on the tongue every time they take a sip.

The continuous roar of artillery and large cylinders made the whole world seem to be shaking. The rumbling echoes and continuous roar made the eardrums of everyone in Red Moon Fortress ache.

The surrounding air churned and roared like crazy.

The sparks from the explosion of the cannonball illuminated the earth darkened by the bad weather.

Three more large shells hit the outer city wall.

Squeak squeak squeak!

Quack quack quack

The outer city wall made an extremely unpleasant sound that could be heard clearly even standing on the inner city wall.

Chanup looked at the outer city wall that seemed to be crumbling, and then looked at the archers and musketeers on the outer city wall who had been shooting desperately but still couldn't take the gunners.

He gritted his teeth as if he had made up his mind, and then

"Go and tell the people on the outer city wall!"

Chanup called out to several young men beside him who were carrying orders for him.

"Let them all retreat! Evacuate the outer city wall!"

"Mr. Chanup." Lin Ziping said anxiously, "Do you want to abandon the outer city wall?"

"If you don't give up, you can't do it!" Chanup said in a deep voice, "The outer city wall may collapse at any time now! If we withdraw later, I don't know how many people will die!"

After Chanup's retreat order was conveyed to the outer city wall, the soldiers who had already been frightened by the dense bullet rain withdrew from the outer city wall as if fleeing for their lives, and retreated to the back of the inner city wall.

After the last fighter had withdrawn from the outer city wall, four more shells hit the outer city wall.

Quack quack quack quack!

There was a crackling sound enough to cover the entire Red Moon Fortress.

The outer city walls are now like melting ice.

Chanup and the others saw that the outer city wall was slowly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

First many pieces fell, and then more and more pieces fell, bigger and bigger.

In the end, it seemed that it completely lost its support, and the entire outer city wall collapsed, and a big gap appeared.

Red Moon Fortress, the outer city wall fell.

I originally wanted to write a 8400 chapter, but I couldn’t do it. I only wrote [-], but this is extremely conscientious, so I humbly beg for some monthly tickets.

In order to let everyone feel the description of being bombarded by artillery as if they were on the scene, I wrote the description of artillery bombardment over and over many times. I am very satisfied with the description of artillery bombardment in this chapter.I also hope that you will not glance at the scene of artillery bombardment carefully described by the author.

Chapter 564 The Legendary Giant X Sniper 【7200】

When a big hole was blasted out of the outer city wall, everyone on the inner city wall stared blankly at all this.

Suddenly there was a breeze blowing towards Chanup and the others.

When the wind blows this way, it brings a strong and slightly unpleasant smell. This is a strange smell mixed with the smell of gunpowder and the burnt smell produced by burning things, which is disgusting.

"Get ready for the bombardment! The artillery of the Hejun should hit the inner city wall later!" Facing this scene that seemed like a catastrophe to everyone in the Red Moon Fortress, Chanup was the first to react, Gao yelled at the people around

Outside the city, the shogunate army camp, the main formation of the whole army

No need to use binoculars to see. People who are not blind can clearly see the city wall that blocked them for 9 days, and a big hole was blasted out by their artillery fire.

Feeling elated, Inamori let out a very happy laugh.

"It's so satisfying!" Inamori couldn't hide his smug smile, "Finally, this damned city wall was blown down!"

Inamori waved his palm:

"Words to the gunners and big gunners! Keep firing! Give me the inner wall of the citadel too?"

Before Daomori could finish his new order, he saw snowflakes falling in front of his eyes, and landed on his military equipment and armor.

He raised his head and looked at the sky. What came into his eyes was the black clouds that had crowded the entire sky since dawn, and made a very beautiful embellishment of snowflakes.

It snowed heavily.When Inamori just raised his head, it was still "moderate snow". After only a few breaths, the snow turned into heavy snow with strong wind.

"Tsk" Inamori curled his lips, showing a very displeased expression, "It's not fair to have such a heavy snowstorm at this time."

"Master Inamori." A confidant standing beside Inamori said softly at this time, "It's impossible to use firearms in such a heavy snowstorm."

"I know." Inamori said in a deep voice, "There is no other way. Let the artillerymen and the big gunners withdraw temporarily. After the wind and snow subside, we will deal with the last wall of this fortress."

In this era, even the most advanced artillery and gunpowder in Europe are extremely afraid of rainy, windy and snowy days because in such weather, gunpowder is extremely susceptible to moisture.

So there is no need for this cronies to remind, Inamori also knows that under the current environment, their firearms are temporarily useless.

"In the bombardment just now, the shells and gunpowder we brought were at least one-third less." At this time, another confidant twitched the corners of his mouth and continued in a regretful tone, "These are not cheap."

"At this time, don't worry about the money anymore," Inamori said in a helpless tone.

After saying that, Inamori got up and left Maza under his buttocks.

"I'll go back to the tent to rest, and when the wind and snow stop or lessen, let me know as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

"Master Inamori!"

Before Daomori had gone far, another person called his name and stopped him.

It was Gui Yizheng who stopped him.

"What's the matter?" Inamori turned to look at Gui Yizheng.

"Now, the outer city walls of those barbarians have been demolished by us. They must have lost their courage." Gui Yizheng said slowly, "Do we need to persuade them to surrender again?"

"No need." Inamori replied without thinking.

He raised disgusted eyes and looked at the fortress in the distance.

"These days, those barbarians had countless opportunities to surrender to us, but they all chose to resist."

"They need to pay for their foolish persistence."

Crimson Moon Fortress, Kunoya's Clinic

"Little girl, why are you sitting up again?"

As soon as Kunoya returned to the clinic, she saw Ah-Ming sitting leaning against the wall.

"Kunoya, you're back."

Machi cast a surprised look at Kunoya.

"It's really strange to see you come back at this time."

"Didn't you say two days ago that my body has recovered very well, and I can already sit and walk slowly."
