"The first platoon prepares, ignition ..."

Outside the city, there was a faint shout.

"My lord, there's movement outside the city." The sentry beside Toudun warned.

"Got it. It's okay, they just shout and scream scary. Toudun nodded in reply.

Immediately, with a smile on his face, Toudon shouted to the defenders at the head of the city: "Brothers, do not be afraid. If the anti-thief artillery can't hit it, it can only be used as a firecracker to make a noise for everyone to hear! The archers all came forward, and if anyone dared to come and call for surrender, they would shoot at me. ”

"Yes," the archers of the city replied.

"Haha... Everyone came to watch the artillery battle! The generals next to Toudun also laughed and greeted the defenders on the wall.

"Haha..."

The generals' words made the defenders, who were still nervous, instantly relax a lot, and laughed.

……

“… Whew... Whew..."

Wisps of faint white smoke came out.

The primer fire rope quickly disappeared under the ignition of a flash of white light, and the artillery of the bandit army next to the artillery saw the lit fuse and immediately ran to the side of the trench to hide.

"Haha... Look, even the thieves knew that their artillery was not good, so they all ran to the side and hid. A general on the city wall said with a laugh as he pointed to the artillerymen of the bandit army at the artillery station.

"The thieves themselves know that their own things are not good, what are we afraid of..."

"No, brothers, don't be afraid..."

……

“… Boom... Boom... Bang..."

A burst of glittering fire erupted from the wide cannon muzzle, and a loud sound rang out. After the sound, a huge disk-like object was ejected and flew rapidly towards the head of the inner city of Nanjing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The anti-thief's artillery has something shooting, pay attention to dodge and hide." The sentries on the walls shouted loudly again.

The sound of the sentry was followed by a huge explosion that resounded through the sky.

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."

The explosive packets that flew over continued to explode at the head of the city, and the air waves generated by the huge explosion directly lifted many people into the air and slammed them to the ground. Some of the defenders didn't even have time to figure out what was going on, and they were stunned and killed by these flying "cannonballs".

Smoke billowed from the top of the city, and the thick smoke covered the entire section of the city wall like a cloud falling from the sky to the ground.

The explosion lasted for two quarters of an hour, which was not a long time for the bandit army outside the city, but the defenders at the head of the city felt that every second was going through purgatory on earth.

Amid the prays of thousands of people in the inner city, the explosion was over.

At this time, there was no one standing at the head of the city. Toudun, who had been laughing just now, had now fallen to the ground bleeding and died, and it was difficult to show a sneering smile.

The explosion covered the entire length of the wall, and even the defenders hiding in the caves were affected by the explosion. It is also a pity that the bandit army now uses only black powder, and if it is yellow powder or even explosives such as TNT in later generations, they will not be spared.

"Didi... Didi..."

The charging suona of the bandit army sounded.

With the thick smoke of gunpowder on the city, the bandit army officially launched an attack.

"Kill..."

"Rush..."

Under the shouts of the sky, the vanguard siege force of the bandit army poured into the city like a tide. The people and horses who carry the bamboo ladder and push the ladder cart dare not have a trace of laziness and delay, and they can run as fast as they can.

The army rushed all the way, and there was not a single bow or arrow shot by the defenders, nor a single brick or stone falling, and it was incredibly calm. It wasn't until the army climbed up to the top of the city that a defender appeared at the head of the city.

……

"Kill... Kill all the Tartars and clear the dogs..."

…

"Quickly drive all these thieves out of the city..."

…

"Ding... Bite... Boom... Boom..."

Iron objects collide, swords intersect. People on both sides continued to fall, bleeding profusely.

This was the strongest resistance to the bandit army since the siege. The war was intertwined, and none of the flag soldiers had the intention of surrendering, and there were even old men with bannermen pulling bows, healthy women raising swords, and children wearing armor on the top of the city.

The battle has been fierce so far. Looking at the corpses that were bleeding and falling to the ground all over the city wall, some of the undetermined siege vanguard soldiers even had a faint intention of retreating.

"Attack, the squad leader retreats, and kills the squad leader; The company commander retreats, cuts the company commander... Those who carry the guilt will retreat, and the whole family will be beheaded. There is no thief with me..."

A loud shout came from outside the city, and the besiegers on the head of the city, who were still waiting for Mingjin to withdraw their troops, had to rush up and slash with their knives in their hands again.

At this time, the Manchu people had crops and silver to harvest since they were born, and they didn't need to engage in other things and only needed to practice martial arts.

However, the siege of the bandit army is not vegetarian, and many of them are also banner people (although they are forced). In particular, after the improvement of the sword technique of the bandit army by Hong Xiguan and other martial arts leaders, not only the sword strength is even worse, but even the fighting style of exchanging life for life makes it difficult for the defenders to resist.

As the regular troops of the anti-bandit army climbed the wall, the defenders who had faintly stood on the wall could no longer support it.

"Where is this man, he is simply a demon who does not know pain. Slash them, they can laugh and slash back..."

Some of the defenders with a slightly lower will could not bear it any longer, and they pulled their legs and ran back.

One, two...

Slowly, the defenders at the head of the city began to lose their way. Looking at the bandit army that kept pouring into the city, it slowly retreated.

"Kill..."

The bandit army occupying the city continued to drive the rout into the city.

The city gate is right in front of you.

As long as the gates are opened, the inner city can be determined.

"Quick, rush forward. Don't let the thieves open the gates..."

At this time, the reinforcements sent by Toudun for help had just arrived. Looking at this messy situation, I saw that the general quickly stopped the rout, and commanded his men to stop the bandit army that had already arrived at the city gate to open the city gate.

"Kill..."

The Qing reinforcements took bows and swords, and rushed up shouting.

"Company commander...", a soldier of the bandit army who had been arranged to open the city gate shouted worriedly to the company commander who was going to block the reinforcements.

"Leave us alone, go and open the gates to the army. That's an order. The company commander shouted back.

"Yes," the warrior replied with tears in his eyes.

"Brothers, give me time to hold on here, give the army time. See you at the Shrine of Loyalty...", the company commander shouted.

"Loyal and righteous shrine...", the warriors who followed him shouted one after another.

"Bell... Clang... Bell..."

A rain of arrows came, and although these bandit troops were wearing shields, many people were still killed by arrows. The company commander was also shot in the thigh, and he still gritted his teeth to engage the Qing troops who came over.

"Kill..."
