Chapter 921: The pressure of the oil barrel of the fire of the 7 days under the city

? Siege the next day!

With the deployment of the Chinese in place, they piled up at least fifty "hills" over ten meters above the city of Colombo, 100 meters away from the city, overlooking the city wall "under the hill".

Hong Maofan was shocked by their speed because of the number of people, the strength, the number of people, and the diligence.

Carry the small cannon up the mountain, launch shotguns, and hit the vigorous force!

Assemble the small trebuchet on the mountain and launch fire bombs.

There are observers on the mountain, and when they see where there are many people and where the firepower is strong, they shoot with colored arrows to guide the army to attack that area.

Hong Maofan fired back with the city artillery, but they attacked back and were in a disadvantaged position. The effect was very poor. Instead, the shotguns killed the gunners in the city.

Hong Maofan also used mortars to project cannonballs from inside the city to the hills outside the city. However, the cannonballs of that period were either blasting rounds or iron bullets. Although it was unlucky to hit people, the hit rate was too low and it consumed a lot of gunpowder. The gain is not worth the loss.

Taking a step back, even if you hit a sergeant on the mountain, with the frenetic spirit of the Southeast Army's slight injury to the line of fire, it is simply not a problem!

A mortar shell hit the hill, and the guy who hit it was smashed with blood. The person next to him was indifferent and did whatever he wanted!

The Chinese fire bombs were thrown at the positions of those cannons. After finding a target, sometimes five or six trebuchets threw fire bombs there, not caring how many were thrown, and even saw a red hair in the city. When he appeared, he also sent him several large, medium and small fire bombs. The Chinese called the fire bombs dropped by the large counterweight trebuchet "big" and the fire bombs dropped by the manpower trebuchet as "big". "Medium", call the Molotov cocktail cast by hand as "small".

As long as you see the target, throw some, don't care how much they cost, "High DPS output, break the enemy's spine!" This is the leader's original words.

The leader's speech is sometimes mixed with the nonsense of Hong Maofan, but he must not say that the leader is admiring foreigners and foreigners, only that the leader is inclusive of the world.

There was a sudden loud noise, thick smoke rose high, and the violent explosion made the Chinese people outside the city couldn't help but shrink their necks, let alone the Hong Maofan inside the city.

It should have exploded the gunpowder depot or gunpowder pile of Hong Maofan. The nearby Hong Maofan is miserable!

The Southeast Army’s attack on the second day continued using the skirmish line. In fact, it pretended to attack and fight for the vigorous force of Hong Maofan. After all, their counterattack firepower was not weak. Even if the bunker was attacked by kerosene, when the fire was extinguished, the bunker would spray. The bullet came out.

As a matter of course, they were "taken care" by the Southeastern Army's gunfire and Molotov cocktail, and the personnel continued to be killed and injured.

Bombs were continuously dropped from the city and inside the city, effectively resisting the attack of the Southeast Army.

The troops in the city had grief and anger in their eyes, and they had not yet shaken their minds completely. However, they saw the artillery shells and fireballs smashing into the city, and they could hardly fight back, which made their hearts more and more frightened.

Not only that!

Mr. David calmly said to the officers: "With the permission of the leader, we have brought two hundred large counterweight catapult kits, and it's the turn to assemble them!"

The engineers and migrant workers of the Southeast Army were busy, and they began to carry out night battles to assemble the trebuchets outside Colombo.

The Hong Maofan in the city saw that it was bitter and straightforward, and they assembled the trebuchets under their noses, and all the trebuchets were assembled.

What frightened them even more was that the lighthouse on the pier was shining, reflecting the arrival of night-flight ships. It seemed that the Chinese had a new fleet of ships calling at the port, and they could see the large barrels being moved ashore. During the day they saw those The big barrel is filled with kerosene, which is then poured into a ceramic jar to become a fire bomb.

One barrel after another, I don’t know how many barrels there are!

The Chinese deliberately intimidated Hong Maofan by accumulating barrels of fire and oil. The area was first a basketball court and then piled up to half the area of ​​a football field.

The dense piles were laid over, making Hong Maofan feel drums and numb in his heart!

Fire bombs were projected into the city at night, reflecting the sky. Above the city, Governor Rogerio and Commander Romario thought that the kerosene would be poured onto their heads, all with gloomy faces.

They looked at the kerosene dumps of the Chinese, and they couldn’t wait to see fire in their eyes and detonate the kerosene.

Rogerio said anxiously: "We can't beat the Chinese like this. Can you see if you can give each of us a bucket of (kerosene)!"

"Concentrate the crowds, rush out, detonate their kerosene, and send them to see their Mazu!" Rogerio said tough.

Romario took a sigh of relief and looked at the deep ditch and thick fortress under the city. The military industry of the Southeast Army used the long fortress to surround the city extremely firmly.

Regardless of the opponent's musketeer, Romario's finger: "My lord, do you see the position there?"

The Chinese were lighting up lights everywhere, and Rogerio could see clearly that it was an artillery position equipped with 6-pound field guns, at least hundreds of them!

"This artillery array must have prepared a large number of shotguns. If we concentrate our forces and rush out, we will be bombarded by them!" Romario said with experience.

"If you don't charge, you will still die in the city. It is worthless to die. If you rush out, there may be some results!" Rogerio said a philosophical saying: "Efforts do not necessarily have results, but in the city , There is absolutely no result!"

Rogerio and Romario’s names are similar, but they are not in harmony. Rogerio forced Romario to order an attack, but when Romario summoned the officers to prepare for an attack, the red-haired fans all Shake his head like a rattle.

Youcanyouup! (proceed if you can!)

A red-haired army officer bluntly said: "This is suicide!"

The southeast army was ready to fight, and the murderous aura was clear at a glance, and none of the Hong Maofan officers dared to go out to fight.

Set aside as a disciplined army in the East, they dared not obey the commander, often cutting it on the spot, but Rogerio was helpless for the western army that could not beat the flag and surrender.

However, there was a brave man among the indigenous team. Under the temptation of Spanish silver dollars, a team of indigenous people voluntarily went out of the city and burned the Chinese fire oil depot. With one hundred silver dollars a person's life money, Hong Maofan recruited eight people. The death squad was dispatched.

They were dispatched overnight, carrying arson objects, and going down from the west city wall. They divided into two canoes, walked in the west waters, circled a big circle, and landed behind the south of the city, trying to destroy the Chinese oil depot.

The sea area to the west was blocked by the Southeast Fleet. After all, the conditions were limited at that time. The death squad successfully passed the blockade. There was no movement on the dark sea, which gave Rogerio some hope.

He waited and waited, when it was almost dawn, he heard noises from the southwest corner of the Southeast Army camp, and then gunfire rang!

Looking forward to the good news, however, Rogerio did not see a big movement, and the noise there subsided.

The death squad of the night raid had a good opportunity. They launched an assault in the darkness before dawn. This is the time when people are most tired.

But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ people are tired, dogs are not tired, and geese are not tired!

It turned out that the Chinese used Chinese garden dogs and big goose guards, and received good results.

It goes without saying that dogs can guard their homes. Goose is an anseriforme animal, with strong territorial awareness, good memory, strong alertness, and extremely sensitive. It will sound an alarm when it predicts danger. From the perspective of security, it has considerable advantages.

As early as when the Gauls invaded Rome, the Roman garrison used the geese to report to the police in time to find the Gaul who was about to attack, thus turning the tide of the war in one fell swoop.

Similarly, in the Southeast Army, guards of the big goose are also arranged. They usually serve as errands and also serve as food reserves. When the Chinese are ready to leave, they will become a delicacy for extra meals, killing two birds with one stone!

In this way, the death squad was discovered by the animal, and the Southeast Army immediately organized a search and wiped them out!

At five o'clock in the morning, fire bombs were flying all over the sky, and the city of Colombo was plunged into flames!
