Chapter 199: Almost
"Ah Nian, have you seen it?" At the head of the city, Zhang Ning pointed to a few big men on horses not far away, and said, "Can the cannon bombard?" ”
Liu Nian was on duty at the head of the city, and Zhang Ning went up to the city, but he didn't expect to see a few people coming out of the Wara camp, and they galloped to a stop not far from the city of Datong.
A few people thought that at this distance, bows and arrows could not be shot, and grenades could not be thrown.
Liu Nian suddenly came to his senses, gestured, and said, "I guess I can't shoot." However, you can try it with fire. ”
"Open! They are clearly spying on the movements of our army, how can they just let them go? Zhang Ning said domineeringly.
Although it is not clear about the identities of several people, it can be seen that the status is not low, especially the man who is surrounded in the middle, with an extraordinary bearing, and it is likely that it is the first master of Warat.
If you don't try it, you don't have a chance, try the principle of half a chance, Zhang Ning advocates a few shots first.
Of course, this is also after Zhang Fu canceled the order not to go to war, if the order not to go to war was still there, Zhang Ning would definitely not have this thought.
Moreover, before the Wara army attacked the city, a large number of people gathered under the city, and the Ming army threw grenades wherever they went, and all the grenades exploded under the city. At this time, the sergeants of the five military battalions carried soil out of the city to fill the pit, and they were also under the city, far away from those people, and the shells would not hit their own people.
In such a situation, why not bomb?
Liu Nian was bent on making meritorious contributions, and when he saw Zhang Ning agreeing, he immediately took matters into his own hands, adjusted the range of the cannon to the farthest, and then filled the projectile, ignited it, and launched it.
…………
He also looked at the open gate and sighed, "How did the news leak out?" If I don't leak the news, I'm already in Datong at this time. ”
Captain Wan reminded: "Taishi, even if the news is not leaked, we will be caught off guard by the Ming army, and we will not be able to help the thing in the hands of the Ming army." ”
Last night's scene made Captain Wan feel deep despair, the Ming army has such a sharp weapon in its hands, how can it fight? I'm afraid that from now on, there will only be one way to hide from the Ming army. It's just that he didn't dare to say this, for fear that the Taishi would kill him in anger.
also said with a disdainful face: "Don't grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige." That thing doesn't have eyes, the sergeants on both sides are scuffling together, how dare the Ming army throw that thing? Besides, there are not many defenders in Datong, our army is attacking, Jiang Gui and Daniel Zhang are overwhelmed, where can they free up their hands to throw that thing? ”
He couldn't figure out how the news had leaked out. He obviously killed all the Ming people on the grassland before he called on the tribes to send troops, and it was impossible for the Ming people to escape back to Datong.
Could it be that there is a mole? Who is the mole? I also thought of Gessel, the unlucky guy he sent to the Ming Court. But then he felt that it was not, and when Gessel sent the envoy, he did not know the specific time of sending troops. Even if the two sides are tense and there is no specific time to send troops, it is useless to say it.
How did Daniel Zhang and Jiang Gui, who were in Datong, not know that a big war was about to break out? Still use Gessel Baba to snitch?
Just when he was puzzled, there was a loud "boom" on the Datong city wall, and a cannon spat out fire, shooting something in their direction.
Cannon, also first not only heard, but also detailed information and seen graphics. The Ming army has not been using this thing for a day or two, and he has all the information that should be available.
But he also knew very well that if the artillery of the Ming army was not operated properly, it would explode the chamber, and if it exploded, it would injure the sergeant who operated it. And the cannon is bulky and inconvenient to carry. Therefore, the Ming army rarely used it.
Unexpectedly, a few people watched from such a distance for a while, and the artillery of the Ming army bombarded.
Was it Jiang Gui or Daniel Zhang who gave the order? No, it can't be Daniel Zhang, this old guy likes to be brave, if it were him, he would definitely go out of the city to invite the battle.
Then it must be Jiang Gui, the traitor.
also thought about the electric rotation first, and the captain next to him turned pale with fright, and exclaimed repeatedly: "Taishi, go quickly." ”
He also turned a deaf ear at first, just looked up at the cannonball with the glow of fire.
The captain was horrified and whipped on the buttocks of the horse that had straddled the horse first. The horse was in pain, spread its hooves and galloped away. But he ran to the city of Datong.
"Wrong." The captain was so frightened that he cried out. I hope that the suddenly stunned Taishi can return to his soul and flee back to the camp with his horse's head turned around.
…………
At the head of the city, Zhang Ning saw that the men who were surrounded in the middle suddenly rushed towards the city, and hurriedly said: "The sergeant enters the city, and the 'thunder' is ready." ”
No matter who comes, let's blow it up first.
There was such a big commotion here, Gu Xingzu had already rushed over, and just heard Zhang Ning's words, he immediately gave an order, and the sergeants under the city hurriedly threw down the iron pickaxe and rushed into the city, and the city gate was closed.
The sergeant of the Shenji Battalion on the edge of the battlement had a grenade in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the horse that was galloping, and when the distance came, he threw the grenade in his hand down.
…………
The horses were bumpy, and finally woke up first. Captain Wan and a few entourages shouted behind him again, and the Datong city wall, which was too familiar to be familiar with, was getting closer and closer, and he knew very well what all this meant.
Relying on his superb riding skills, he turned his horse's head diagonally, interspersed in the direction of the camp.
The back of the captain who was so nervous that he screamed was soaked, and he finally returned to his soul, otherwise it would be dangerous.
I also ran out of the road first, returned to the place where I had just reined in the horse, looked again in horror, and found some unusual places. How could there be so many people on the walls?
Just now, I only looked at the city, but I didn't pay attention to the city.
"Hurry up, the Ming army reinforcements are coming." He dropped a sentence and slapped his horse and galloped towards the camp.
He had a lot of experience in combat, and when he saw countless bodies leaning out from behind the battlements just now, he immediately thought that the Ming army was coming for reinforcements. At such a tense moment, it was normal for the Ming Court to send troops to help.
…………
On the city wall, countless sergeants of the Shenji Battalion let out a "hey", it was a pity that they were only ten zhang away from entering the farthest distance where they threw the "thunder".
Liu Nian said: "Do you see it?" I usually ask you to practice hard, but you don't listen, and now you're falling short, right? ”
Countless sergeants said in their hearts: "Why don't we listen? We've been practicing hard, okay? It's just that manpower is sometimes poor, and there is no way. ”
The commander and the coach did not dare to refute, so they had to bow their heads one by one, and their eyes were still staring at the direction of the enemy.
Zhang Ning said: "Can Gu Hou Ye recognize who this person is?" ”
Gu Xingzu sighed and said, "He is also the first." "Who can understand how sad he is? It's just a little bit close, and you can blast it into scum first.
"He's the first?" Zhang Ning's eyes froze slightly.
"That's right. Alas! After galloping on the battlefield many times, Gu Xingzu, who was scheming, couldn't help but sigh, just a little bit, which couldn't help but make people sigh.
Zhang Ning also felt a pity, but he quickly looked away, comforted Liu Nian and Gu Xingzu, and said: "Next time he will definitely not be able to run, this time let him escape, but he is lucky." ”
"Yes, he was cheaper this time, and he won't be able to run away next time." Liu Nian nodded heavily.
