Chapter 1214: Who Can Break the City?
After hearing that Li Yan had no news, Li Zicheng's already bad mood became more irritable.
It's no wonder that since Li Yan joined his command, although Li Zicheng has become more and more disgusted with whether Li Yan is making noise in his ears, he even handed over the task of breaking the gap to him.
But at this moment, he suddenly missed Li Yan very much, if Li Yan was still by his side now, he would definitely be able to give himself a good advice in the face of such a situation, instead of relying on himself to think about everything.
Thinking of this, he swept his eyes around, and found that the leaders around him either lowered their heads or looked thoughtful after coming into contact with his gaze, one by one, they were afraid to come into contact with him, even Liu Zongmin, who shouted the most happily on weekdays.
Seeing this, Li Zicheng became even more irritable, and said unhappily: "Aren't you always shouting for revenge on Jiang Ningjun on weekdays, and now that Jiang Ningjun is here, why don't you speak?" ”
The generals are still silent, they don't know what the combat effectiveness of the Jiang Ning Army is, just talk about this kind of scene, whoever wants to take it seriously is a fool, but seeing Li Zicheng is really anxious, no one dares to touch his brow at this time.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Li Zicheng became more and more angry, "What, are you dumb?" What am I asking you? ”
Seeing that Li Zicheng was angry, Liu Zongmin spoke: "King Chuang, this melon baby Zi Shicai also said that although the Jiangning army that just broke in has three or four or five thousand people, these four or five thousand people include a large number of baggage and hundreds of artillery pieces.
I estimate that it will take more than 1,000 people just to serve these artillery, plus those heavy soldiers, the Jiangning army can fight with more than 2,000 people at best, even if all these 2,000 people are put on the city wall, it is just a drop in the bucket for the Hangzhou Mansion of Nuoda, so I think that we should continue to attack Hangzhou Mansion.
Isn't Jiang Ningjun's firearm powerful, we don't have anything else, but there are a lot of people. What about how many people die? As long as there are those hungry soldiers who stutter, how many do we want, and even if we don't have them, won't we rob them? This is our old business, it's just 2,000 people, we can use people to pile them to death, everyone said this is not the reason? ”
"Yes, Liu Ye is right."
"No matter how powerful Jiang Ningjun is, he doesn't have three heads and six arms, and we don't have anything else, but there are too many people, even if we rely on people this time, we can pile them to death."
"As long as these Jiangning troops can be killed, then the baggage they brought into the city just now is ours, as well as those firearms and artillery......
I have to say that people's imagination is rich, especially the last sentence magnifies the greed in the hearts of thieves to the extreme.
Just a few days ago, Li Zicheng set up a bureau outside the Huizhou Mansion, at the cost of thousands of people to annihilate a cavalry team of 100 people of the Jiangning Army, after this battle, Liukou captured more than 50 intact brown beisi firearms, 100 armor, more than 100 war horses, although the results and the price paid are not proportional, but it is enough to make Liukou very excited.
Especially those captured brown beth fire guns, after the test firing, the powerful power and the range of the bow and crossbow made Li Zicheng and other bandit leaders ecstatic.
Li Zicheng immediately ordered these dozens of firecrackers to be equipped with his escort team, but the most regrettable thing for him was that the ammunition was still too small, and on average, each firearm was less than fifty rounds of medicine.
If he can really capture the baggage of the Jiangning Army this time, doesn't that mean that he can also set up an army of pure firearms? And those more than a hundred artillery pieces?
If his own rebel army also had such a powerful firearms force, Li Zicheng could swear that he would dare to march to the capital now and compete with the old Zhu family for the world.
"Hit ...... Be sure to fight, fight now! ”
Li Zicheng slapped his thigh and shouted out with a fierce look in his eyes, and Liu Zongmin and other leaders shouted with him.
With Li Zicheng's order, countless hungry soldiers poured towards Qingbo Gate like a tide under the supervision of the battle team......
Looking at the thieves who came like a tide, all the people on the gate tower of Qingbo Gate were stunned, even Pan Ruzhen, who had been in the city gate tower for several days, couldn't help but grow his mouth and muttered: "Are the thieves going to make a desperate bet?" How can this be resisted, right...... Believe in the country, the country, what should we do now? ”
It was only then that he remembered the support soldier who had just arrived and Yang Feng beside him.
Yang Feng didn't panic at all, he still looked calm and relaxed: "What's the hurry, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, since the thieves have attacked, let's just fight back." In the past, even the Manchu Tartars were destroyed by Bengong, not to mention the thieves. ”
Listening to the unconcealed arrogance in Yang Feng's words, Pan Ruzhen's heart unconsciously began to settle down.
After that, Yang Feng stretched out his right hand, and the herald behind him hurriedly handed him the walkie-talkie, Yang Feng took the walkie-talkie and pressed the call button and said loudly: "Mr. Wang Qian, Mr. Zhao Qian, are you ready there?" ”
A rustling sound sounded in the walkie-talkie first, and then a voice came out of the walkie-talkie: "Grandpa Qiyuguo, the humble post has been prepared, and he can be put into battle at any time." ”
"Okay, you remember, you have to beat them hard, you have to beat them hard, understand?"
"Humble duty understands."
After giving the order, Yang Feng said to the herald behind him: "You immediately tell the baggage battalion and let them hurry up and send a batch of medicine and 10,000 enemies to the city wall." Let the medical battalion send someone over, ready, ready to rescue the wounded at any time! ”
"Understood!"
Listening to Yang Feng's orderly orders there, Pan Ruzhen and those civil officials who were originally a little flustered slowly settled down, and many people then remembered, yes, the Jiangning Army is known as the strongest army in the world, although there are only a few thousand people who came this time, but it must be able to resist for a while, right?
Just when everyone was thinking, a group of Jiangning Army sergeants had already gone up to the city wall, and stood at the battlement under the command of the officer, and a fire gun also stretched out from the battlement.
After doing all this, the hungry soldiers rushed to the city in shock, and some of the hungry soldiers in ragged clothes held high all kinds of weapons, and some carried ladders, and rushed towards the city wall with hideous faces.
But if you look closely, you will find that behind these people there are many thieves with grim expressions, all of whom are wearing armor, and the weapons in their hands are much better than those of the hungry soldiers, and there are even many archers mixed in the middle.
They are the overseers sent by Li Zicheng and others, these people have great power, and they have the right to shoot all those they think are passive and sluggish on the battlefield.
