Section XI
A bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the sky, and the sky and the earth flickered like day and night, and the muffled thunder rumbled and rolled, roaring and swooping towards the earth.
The wind rose, and the yellow sand was like clouds, roaring towards the capital, enveloping a whole army in it, drowning out all sounds.
Zhao Guangyuan led more than 100 cavalry to rush to the front, straight towards the inner city of the Beijing Division, rampage along the way, passers-by dodged in a hurry, and cursed loudly this arrogant officer army, but the scolding continued, they then found in shock that the cavalry just now was just the vanguard force, and there was actually a large army behind, layer after layer of infantry instantly filled the entire street, the knife out of the sheath and the arrow on the wound murderous spirit, a few hawkers blocking the way could not dodge, and were immediately taken up by the officers and soldiers, and the corpse was on the ground in an instant.
Hot blood was sprinkled all over the ground, the headless body was trampled under the feet of the soldiers, and then turned into a puddle of mud, people looked at the swarming soldiers in disbelief, for a while they were a little stupid, the soldiers who rushed to the front ran faster and faster, their eyes were red like ghosts, and they slashed away when they encountered pedestrians blocking the road without looking at them, and when the white blade was on the neck, I didn't know who shouted, and the people on the street fled in an instant, and the lively streets suddenly fell silent, like a ghost domain.
The rolling torrent of steel was divided into several teams along several avenues, and they were killed at the other eight gates of the capital, and there was no resistance along the way, Lin Feng led the main brigade under the guidance of Zhou Peigong and went straight to the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army.
Lin Feng rode on the horse, wiped a handful of sweat on his face, and saw that the outer city was going well, and his heart was slightly relieved, "Pei Gong!" β
"The subordinates are here!"
"Hurry up and bring Liu Laosi's men and horses to support Zhao Guangyuan, and you must take the inner city defense!" I will hand over the six yamen, the major official offices, and the Forbidden City to you, according to what I said at the beginning, all the soldiers and horses are at your disposal, and those who disobey the order are beheaded - all the bastards below Kangxi are not allowed to leave one, otherwise I will only ask you! β
"General rest assured, Kangxi can't run!" Zhou Peigong arched his hand dashingly on the horse, and smiled casually.
When Zhou Peigong led the army to go in response to the name, Lin Feng's Chinese army brigade had already arrived at the yamen of the infantry commander, and several Goshha who were standing guard looked at this army with puzzled faces, and the officer led by him was stunned for a long time, and shouted loudly in a trembling tone, "The military plane is heavy, come and stop!" - It's the military gate, please send a notebook first......"
There was no answer, without waiting for Lin Feng's order, the Chinese army did not hesitate to fire arrows, the officer at the head was instantly shot into a hedgehog, not waiting for the undead Goshha to draw his knife to resist, the soldiers in the front row immediately rushed up the steps and cut down with knives, and after a while, the door opened, Lin Feng knocked the horse's belly, the war horse neighed, and he took the lead in killing it.
In order to guard against changes, he led the main force of nearly 2,000 Chinese troops to attack this city defense center, just because he was afraid that there would still be a tragic battle, but at this moment it was obviously not the case, and the battle was over in less than half an hour. In this year of smoke, the army left behind in Beijing by the Qing Dynasty was really the old, weak, sick and disabled, and the commander of the infantry army, the yamen, had already existed in name only at this time, and the patrol team left behind was not only pitifully small in number, but also greatly reduced in function, and their task at this time was only to suppress the market and cooperate with the officials of Shuntianfu to maintain law and order.
Relatively speaking, the fiercest battle took place in the backyard study of the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, and the fiercest resistance was not the Qing soldiers, but a few personal servants of Luo Ji Hari, the commander of the Nine Gates, but this resistance only lasted for a few minutes, when Lin Feng just sat down in the Yamen hall, Li Ergou, the captain of the personal army, dragged the Manchu important minister in like a dead dog, and the soldiers behind him dragged it horizontally and vertically, and the civil and military officials at all levels of the Yamen together with the staff and pen posts were all tied up a lot.
Lin Feng smiled lightly, stood up, ready to be tortured, and when he approached, he suddenly smelled a strange smell, Admiral Luo Ji Harry of the Nine Gates had gray hair about forty or fifty years old, and his face was full of horror at this moment, and his lower body was already wet dripping orange liquid, he frowned, covered his nose and reluctantly asked, "You are the Admiral of the Nine Gates?!" β
ββ¦β¦ Rebel...... You ......"
Lin Feng waved his hand, and suddenly felt a little funny, what is there to talk about with such a little guy? He snorted at Li Ergou, and the two personal soldiers immediately rushed forward, recklessly pressed Luo Ji Harry's neck, pulled out his waist knife, and cut off his head on the spot, blood sprayed wildly, and the head of the person dragging the pigtail rolled on the ground of the lobby with filthy blood dripping, and it was instantly red.
Fuck, really forgot about education, is there such a murderous person? Don't know how to drag it out and cut it again? Lin Feng cursed in his heart, hurriedly dodging the spurting bloodstream, jumped to the top of the lobby and looked up, at this moment, the officials were already as pale as earth, all of them were trembling with fright, and a few old people simply rolled their eyes and fainted, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, chuckling, "The officials stand on the left, and the clerks and gentlemen stand on the right!" β
These people first looked at each other, as if they realized something, trembling and reluctant to move their steps, Lin Feng waved his hand, and a team of pro-soldiers viciously rushed into the crowd, smashing and slashing across the back of the knife, and divided them into two sides according to the color and grade of their clothes, and after they were barely separated under the pull of the soldiers, Lin Feng nodded, "Give the officials on the left to Lao Tzu!" - Drag it out and cut it again! β
There was a ghost crying wolf, and after a while, one after another human heads were presented to Lin Feng for Lin Feng to look at, but he didn't look at them, pointed to these bloody and blurred heads, and said to those trembling officials, "Do you surrender?!" β
As expected, unlike those officials, these officials are only money in the officialdom for a long time, all of them are extremely cunning but timid as a mouse, naturally there is no integrity at all, when they all knelt down and surrendered, Lin Feng grinned, and asked the pro-soldiers to untie them, and then ordered them to cut off their braids, and ordered the pro-soldiers to pay 100 taels of silver per person according to the head, and then their faces changed again, and ordered them to cut off their braids immediately and start to grow hair from now on.
I was about to comfort a few words, but suddenly there was a sharp sound of horses' hooves outside the front door, and soon a soldier was covered in blood and rushed into the lobby with an excited expression, "Report - my lord, the inner city has been taken, the six yamen, Dali Temple, Duchayuan and other yamen have been taken, most of the princes and ministers of the Qing court have been captured, but a few have fled into the palace Forbidden City, Lord Zhou is besieging the palace while suppressing the families of the eight banners in the inner city, searching for Baylor, Elu and other ......"
"Well done! Zhou Peigong is Zhou Peigong, fuck!! Lin Feng jumped up, looked at the sweaty soldiers, and laughed, "You kid is good, reward a hundred taels!" β
"Master Xie...... But...... However, the Imperial City Imperial Forest Army saw that our army entered the inner city and immediately set up defenses, the Forbidden City was strong, and our army had no siege equipment, it was difficult for a while, and the soldiers of Zhou were not enough to surround the four gates, so they sent a humble post to ask for help, and asked the adults to ......"
"Okay, Rory is verbose, don't fucking say it sooner," Lin Feng became more and more shocked the more he listened, it turned out that Kangxi was still struggling to the death, and there was still the possibility of repeated things, so he was in a hurry, and he didn't care about saying much at the moment, so he immediately rushed out of the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, and led the Chinese army to rush to the aid of the inner city.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, the air was lightning and thundering, but the heavy rain was not falling for a long time, Lin Feng led the Chinese army to just rush into the inner city, and suddenly a rapid bell came from the direction of the palace ban, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, turned his head and asked, "What's going on?!" β
The pro-soldiers next to him all looked at each other, they were either Liaodong peasants or Fujian peasants, how did they know these things, but one person next to them replied, "General Hui, this is Emperor Kangxi who hit Jingyang Zhong and summoned his ministers to guard!" β
"Haha, I'm still guarding a fart, I'll cut it one by one when I wait for Lao Tzu!" Lin Feng laughed, put his mind at ease, turned around and asked, "Who are you?!" β
The man was dressed in the uniform of a low-level official in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and when he saw Lin Feng turn around, he immediately knelt down, "In the ninth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the second-class jinshi, Chen Menglei of Fujian!" β
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, the name Xindao seemed to be a little impressive, but he couldn't remember it when he thought about it carefully, so he got up and followed at this time, slowed down the horse's hooves and frowned and asked, "Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Chen-Mr. Chen was born as a Jinshi, why is he so miserable now?!" β
Chen Menglei smiled bitterly, "The humble post was originally awarded to the subordinate officers of the army, but later because of the letter Kangxi said that Geng Jingzhong would be offended, he was demoted to the commander of the Nine Gates!" He smiled reluctantly, "Fortunately, otherwise I would have died under the sword of the adult just now!" β
"That's really offended," Lin Feng arched his hand on the horse, "Mr. Chen, since you are willing to be with us, we don't treat you as an outsider, the infantry army commander Yamen is related to the defense of the city of Beijing, the battle situation is critical at the moment, once there is a change, the consequences are unimaginable, Lin Moushi is also a last resort, Mr. Wang's forgiveness!" β
Chen Menglei said, "The adult is wrong, Chen thinks that there should be extraordinary means to do extraordinary things, and the adult is decisive on the spot, he is really a person who has achieved great things, Chen Mou is convinced!" Speaking of this, his face suddenly looked a little embarrassed, "Shicai has heard the accent of the general and the soldiers, it seems that he is from Fujian?!" β
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered why he took the initiative to contact and test himself, it turned out that he was still a fellow villager, and the local concept in these years is really not fucking strong! At that moment, he suddenly realized, immediately rolled the saddle and fell off the horse, holding his hand tightly, "Sin, sin, it turned out to be Brother Xiangzi, my old Lin was reckless, and I almost killed my own people!" He immediately made a decision, turned around and shouted to the soldiers beside him, "Brothers, fellow villagers, from now on, Mr. Chen Menglei is my adjutant general, his words are my words, you bastards are polite to Lao Tzu!" β
Chen Menglei immediately bowed down again, "How can Chen ...... what virtue?"
"Forget it, Brother Chen, don't come to this set of our own brothers," Lin Feng unceremoniously pulled him up, personally helped him onto his own war horse, got on another one himself, and galloped with him, "I said Lao Chen, you have also seen the current situation, according to today, I don't know if it will be over in the Qing Dynasty, but Kangxi, this kid must be dead, now the war is fierce, Shenzhou is swinging, and the heroes are rising up in the troubled times, and our men are just going to sacrifice their lives- I don't know if you have anything to point to your little brother this time?! Lin Feng's heart is bright, now that his strength is weak, he wants to do his best to receive the inheritance of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the current Chen Menglei is the first.
Seeing Lin Feng personally helping himself to get on the horse, Chen Menglei was moved to tears, his life and death were uncertain just now, this will be a gift, appreciation and promotion, isn't this what the reader wants? Stroking the mane of the war horse in his hand, he was full of emotion, it was really like a dream, it seemed that this one was really right, he quietly wiped a handful of tears and gathered his mind, "The general is actually in the bureau and doesn't know what's going on, and he doesn't know what is going on in Baoshan!" β
"Oh? What does Lao Chen mean ......? Lin Feng was happy in his heart, but there was surprise on his face.
"I used to be an official in the Ministry of War, so I think I know a lot about military affairs," Chen Menglei regained his composure and said with a smile, "Since the eighth year of Kangxi, the pseudo-Kangxi Emperor has been planning to cut the domain, so he has been hoarding grain, grass, salary and silver, and ordered craftsmen to cast cannons and refine Ge, as far as I know, there are now countless cannons, muskets, and war horses in the Arsenal Division and the Che Driving Division of the Ministry of War - although the war horses are not in the Beijing Division, the cannons and muskets, armor, and weapons in the arsenal are still sealed, I don't know what the general thinks?!" β
"Ah!?h Lin Feng opened his mouth wide, his mind was blank, and he didn't have any thoughts.
"The day before yesterday, I visited my colleagues in the Ministry of War, and during the conversation, I learned that the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War has sealed a total of 420 Hongyi cannons and tiger squat cannons, including more than 200 siege cannons of more than 2,000 catties, in addition to more than 12,000 guns of various types, arquebuses, broadswords, spears, upper and lower armor, and arrow clusters......"
Lin Feng didn't hear the words clearly at all, at this moment he salivated and fell into a state of dementia, and shouted in his heart, I sent it, this time it was really sent, Kangxi, you kid is still playing with a fart, eat, Lao Tzu will immediately use a cannon to bombard you, he didn't have time to answer, turned his head and shouted, "Rick!" Captain Rick!! β
Rick was next to him, and when he heard this, he turned his head strangely, and saw that he was still looking left and right behind him, and couldn't help but reach out and pat him on the shoulder, "General, I'm right next to you!" β
Lin Feng was in a good mood at the moment, and he didn't care about his rudeness, and asked at the moment, "Rick, how are you and your subordinates training now?" β
"General, as you know, we have not been issued muskets, and with this kind of cold weapon now, I think it will be difficult for us to exert greater combat effectiveness."
"I'll send it to you right away - by the way, you can't operate the cannon!"
Rick frowned, "Your Excellency General, I'm an infantry captain, why do you say that, you have to know the class ......?"
"You can't operate a cannon!!"
ββ¦β¦ Well, as you wish, I'll just think it's on the battleship! β
"Captain Rick, I order you, you now, you follow this Chen ...... The colonel went to pick up the firearms and equipment, and I ask you and your men to familiarize yourself with the weapons and go into battle within a quarter of an hour......"
"God !!" Rick exclaimed, "General, are you going to frame me?" It's impossible! - You shot me!! β
"I will, Captain! If you don't fulfill my orders! Lin Feng ignored it, "I hope I can see you on the battlefield in a quarter of an hour, that's it, the weapon is over there, the enemy is over there, go ahead and do it!" β
He turned his head and pointed at Rick and said to Chen Menglei, "Mr. Chen, this red-haired ghost is my subordinate, now please take them to the treasury of the military department to get the cannon musket!" β
Chen Menglei nodded, and immediately bowed his hand, and led the way first, Rick looked at Lin Feng, who looked fierce, and waved helplessly, and followed with his more than 100 "musketeers" armed with broadswords and spears.
At this moment, the imperial city was already in sight, and Zhou Peigong, who led his troops to command here, had already received the news, and brought Zhao Guangyuan, Liu Laosi and other officers to greet him, Lin Feng immediately saw that they were all dressed in tatters and their faces were black, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "What's the matter?" Why did you become a stove god?! β
Zhou Peigong smiled and said, "Yes, it's the fire - some of the princes in those mansions want to resist stubbornly, so let's burn it down!" β
Lin Feng raised his eyes and looked, there seemed to be a faint black smoke from the fire, but the sky was too dark and the wind was blowing, he didn't pay attention to it just now, he frowned and said, "The women and children of the Eight Banners are not harmed, right?!" β
Zhou Peigong looked at Lin Feng in surprise, the soldiers searched for Manchu officials, burned, killed, looted, robbed and raped that was absolutely indispensable, but seeing Lin Feng's different expression, he thought slightly, and seemed to understand, and arched his hand, "The general doesn't need to panic, the strong men of the Eight Banners have all gone out to fight, and recently the Chahar rebellion, even the stronger clothed minions have followed Tuhai to join the army, and the rest are less than a thousand people, including the disabled, if those women, children and old people dare to do wrong, let's just surround the exit and set fire on all sides, In a few hours, these hundreds of thousands of people can be killed cleanly! He smiled slightly, "My lord is thoughtful, and I admire it very much. β
Lin Feng almost turned his back on his anger, but looking at Zhou Peigong's sincere eyes, he had to wave his hand weakly, "I see, I'm too worried!" β
Lin Feng was born in later generations, naturally not like the Han people of this era full of resentment, he has no hatred of the Manchus at all, in fact, he himself has a few Manchu classmates in college, often drink and chat together and play computer games, get along very well, but at this moment is naturally very different, he finally understands that at this time to protect the innocent women and children of ethnic minorities is definitely an unrealistic idea, the war of the nation against the nation is one of the most terrible things in the world, When the white knives are facing each other, there is simply no room for manoeuvre.
With a bitter smile at the moment, he changed the subject, "How is the war?" The Outer City and the Forbidden City are going well, right? β
Zhou Peigong and the officers glanced at each other and bowed slightly, "General, the battle in the outer city is going well, all the defenders of the nine gates of the Beijing division have been annihilated, and they have not escaped one, now they are all in my hands, the Shuntian Mansion Yin was killed by our army, and most of the officials surrendered, and now they are cooperating with our army to eliminate the small bandits who took the opportunity to make trouble, and the admiral of the nine gates is under the jurisdiction of the adult himself, so he is naturally worry-free!" Zhou Peigong paused, "The periphery of the inner city is also controlled by our army, and the six yamen, the Duchayuan, the Dali Temple, the Zongren Mansion, the treasury of the various ministries and the prince's mansions have also been taken, but when the inner city was attacked at the beginning, many ministers took advantage of the chaos to flee into the palace, and the Forbidden City was very well defended, and it was difficult for our army to capture it for a while!" β
Lin Feng sighed slightly and nodded, "Pei Gong is capable, I am naturally very relieved, but this is related to the lives of thousands of brothers, and I don't dare to be sloppy," he smiled and patted Zhou Peigong's shoulder, turned around and said, "Allocate elite men and horses, guard the arsenal and the household treasury, protect the books and household books, and there can be no mistakes, and inform the officers outside that those green-skinned scoundrels who make trouble and rob should not be killed, and those who are willing to join our army will be given silver, and Liaodong veterans will be sent to form a new army for officers, and strictly control them!" β
He thought for a while, then looked back at Zhou Peigong, "Peigong, there is still something to trouble you here!" β
Zhou Peigong smiled, "Subordinates listen to orders!" β
"Now you take a team of soldiers to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, ask those officials, masters, and clerks to assist, and immediately draw strong men according to the household register of the capital - the only son does not draw, the infirm do not draw, and the old and young people in the family do not draw, first limit 10,000 people, and the draw is full, and those who produce strong men will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver per household, and ...... will be withdrawn from the household treasury."
Lin Feng looked up at the night sky, said lightly, suddenly his expression tightened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If anyone takes the opportunity to extort, cause trouble, or resist conscription, they will be beheaded on the spot!" Lizheng, local security, and large households who do not cooperate will be executed all over the door!! β
Zhou Peigong was shocked, "General...... Our army is now on a stable foothold, so if it arouses public resentment......"
Lin Feng nodded heavily, grabbed Zhou Peigong's shoulders with both hands, and said painfully, "It's just that the situation is too difficult, so we have to expand our strength, and now our army is like a boat sailing against the current, if you don't fight, you can't do it!" This matter must be cautious, not only to thunder, but also step by step, the original Shuntianfu officials, the neighborhood of Baozheng, the rich and wealthy and other links can not be missing, others I am afraid that I can't do it, Pei Gong, you are both civil and military, resourceful, and good at the right time, is the first general around me, this matter belongs to you! β
Zhou Peigong's expression was excited when he heard this, his eyes were full of joy and gratitude, the corners of his mouth squirmed and stopped, Lin Feng knew what he wanted to say, waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Although the Qing Court is dying by our army now, there are still the patrol guards of Tianjin Wei outside, the remnants of the Fengtai battalion, and even the defenders of the state capitals of Zhili, although they are ignorant and the troops are not strong at the moment, but I expect that in ten and a half days at most, they will definitely gather in one Qinwang Jingshi, no matter what, we will have to pass this pass!" β
He walked back and forth a few steps, holding the war knife at his waist, and sneered, "And as far as I know, the people of the capital division may not have any blood, our troops are worth 5,000, and the soldiers are already beyond their strength to rob the palace and the major palaces, and they have absolutely no ability to harass the people, as long as you take care of those leading figures, promise not to infringe on their interests, I believe that at this juncture, they will not dare to come forward and oppose our army!" - Besides, our conscription is not given in vain, your side tightens the pass, and the whole family of the person who withholds the reward of the military household will be slaughtered, and there will be no mercy, it is better to catch a few stupid people as a model, so that the strong man's family can get real benefits, I believe that even if there are some complaints, it will arouse the anger of the people! β
Zhou Peigong thought for a while, sighed with a wry smile, and arched his hand, "Don't worry, my lord, Zhou Chang will not be dishonored!" β
"Your Excellency General, Your Excellency General......" A strange voice shouted, Lin Feng let go of Zhou Peigong, turned back in amazement, and suddenly was overjoyed, only to see Rick commanding the soldiers to rush to this side, and the high-spirited barrel was faintly visible at the end of the team. When I got closer, I saw that there was a wooden wheel mount under the artillery, which was dragged by several sturdy mules, and the livestock were extremely difficult to slide step by step, and it was obvious that the cannon body was extremely heavy.
"Rick!" Lin Feng pointed to the Forbidden City not far away, "I want you to blow up the city gate for me, is there a problem?!" β
"Your Excellency, General! ......" Rick was covered in sweat, and immediately a puff of water vapor rose from his head and neck as he stood still, which showed that he was indeed working very hard, "This old Portuguese artillery is very backward, and there are no sighting equipment, I'm not very sure," Rick wiped his sweat with a wry smile, "There are mostly solid bullets in the warehouse, only a little grape bullet!" β
Lin Feng shook his head, "I don't care, I just need the city gate!" He pointed to the thick palace gate of the Forbidden City again, "And right away!" β
Rick nodded helplessly, and after a European-style military salute, he stopped talking nonsense, and immediately turned around and commanded his soldiers to get busy, and soon four huge gun emplacements were dug out of the ground, and hundreds of soldiers rushed up, making enough strength to feed, dragging and pulling, and placing the cannon in it with the help of mules and horses, while Rick cheered up, visually measured the firing range, and calculated the amount of gunpowder that should be used.
Lin Feng watched for a long time, his patience was worn out by time little by little, and seeing that everything was about to be ready, he stretched out his hand and beckoned Zhao Guangyuan, "Old Zhao, is your brother afraid of cannons!" β
Zhao Guangyuan, who had a black and gray face, smiled, revealing his miserable white teeth, "How come?!" Our Liaodong Army has long had artillery, and every time we fight or drill, we have to make a few hits, and we are not even afraid of war horses! β
A stone in Lin Feng's heart finally fell to the ground, and he said with relief, "Wait for you to take your cavalry as close as possible, once the cannon blasts the door open, you will rush in with the brothers to cut his mother with a torch here, as long as you hold on for a while, the brothers in the back will come up!" β
"Don't worry, my lord, our brothers will all count it, just eat and drink porridge this time, everyone will die a bunch of people, and it will be ours to become old Beijing!" Zhao Guangyuan's expression was solemn, and the cavalry behind him also nodded in unison.
Lin Feng was slightly relieved, and turned his head to look, at this time, Rick was looking at him in a daze, his eyes were relative, Rick immediately made an "OK" gesture, but Lin Feng waved his hand and beckoned him to come up from the gun pit.
"What? Everything is ready, Your Excellency, just waiting for your order!! β
"Captain, are you ready to shoot all the yuan?!"
"No, we still have to test a few rounds to calibrate, but I believe it's not a big problem, you see, our field of vision is very wide, and the distance is not far!"
Lin Feng looked at a square outside the Forbidden City, nodded in agreement, "After the calibration of the test firing is completed, you will take your musket team to the front to ambush, as close as possible to the city gate, the cavalry will charge first, you must be the second to rush up to meet them, and take the city gate at all costs!" β
"But Your Excellency, the artillery is ...... here."
Lin Feng interrupted him, "I'll personally command the artillery position, and you will command the musket team," seeing that Rick was still arguing, he waved his hand, "Okay, sir, pay attention to your rankβshow me some knightly demeanor, let me see the military wisdom of the Europeans!" β
"Bang ......" There was a loud bang, only to feel a slight numbness on the soles of his feet, as if the earth was trembling, thick smoke rose and spread everywhere, and a strong smell of gunpowder choked Lin Feng coughing, tears flowed, damn it, the ancient cannon was actually this virtue, like cooking on fire, Lin Feng cursed secretly, barely staring at it, only to see Rick standing next to the artillery, a face had already been colored by thick smoke, at this moment he was enduring the stinging pain of his eyes, and he was concentrating on observing the effect of the shelling. Lin Feng secretly admired, these guys are really a bit professional.
After firing a few shots, Rick finally calibrated the cannon and signaled to Lin Feng above that it was foolproof.
Lin Feng nodded, looked around and waved his hand vigorously, the torches on the left and right were all put down immediately, and in an instant, there was darkness on the position, the left and right footsteps and the sound of horses' hooves were mixed, Rick and Zhao Guangyuan led the cavalry and infantry to the front to lurk, Lin Feng took a deep breath, he was actually not sure in his heart, and he didn't know if this combination of the roughest and most rudimentary infantry artillery would work.
He pulled Chen Menglei beside him and told him with concern, "Brother Chen, stand away, you are a literati, don't get hurt!" β
Chen Menglei said with a smile, "It is a long-cherished wish that the Fengyun will help the Ming Lord, why should the soldiers be afraid?!" Don't bother with me!! Although he said this, he still stepped back according to the order.
"The Lord's ?!!" Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, feeling strange in his heart, he didn't know how to answer for a while, nodded vaguely, estimated that Rick and Zhao Guangyuan were in ambush, raised his hand again, a little certainly, and then waved it down fiercely, and shouted in his mouth, "Fire!" βββ
"Bang bang ......" several loud sounds, this time Lin Feng had experience, standing upwind and looking intently, only to see that the brightly lit city gate not far away instantly collapsed several big holes, stone chips flew everywhere, and the gate below was also hit with cannonballs, obviously deformed.
Without waiting for Lin Feng to order again, those temporary artillerymen pushed the artillery back to the gun position, and immediately re-fired the artillery, and after a few rounds, the city gate was finally bombarded to pieces, and the defenders of the city were also panicked and chaotic, but it is no wonder that since the completion of the Forbidden City, although the dynasty has changed, it is the first time in hundreds of years to eat cannonballs, and no one has ever thought that someone would attack the column with such fanfare as today.
The defenders were in a panic, Lin Feng saw clearly, immediately picked up the torches on the ground, personally ran to the highest place and raised them high, in an instant, the shouts of killing were everywhere, the hooves of the horses in front of him trembled, a cavalry army ignored the resistance of the city, rushed towards the city gate like a whirlwind, white smoke rose in the darkness, the arquebus shot sporadically, the main force of the brigade around him was silent like death for a few seconds, and suddenly the excited group of people made a noise, and shouted hoarsely and rushed forward.
The whole army began to charge.

The day before yesterday, a buddy told me that he wouldn't read a book without 100,000 words.
It is said that this atmosphere was ruined by a few bastards such as Blood Red \ Cloud Sky and hated them evenly.
PS: Continue to go crazy today.
