Fire!

When that desperate roar came, the gunner who operated the cannon was frightened, and he didn't know what to do, after all, there were hundreds of brothers in front of him.

At this moment, I don't know who snatched the torch from the gunner's hand and headed for the fuse at the tail of the gun.

After a cannon sounded, in the smoke of gunpowder, hundreds of lead shots flew forward, and the bodies of those who stood in front of them, whether they were unarmored loyal soldiers or Eight Banner soldiers, were instantly penetrated by lead bullets.

"Throwing grenades ......"

In the midst of that scream, Gan Xiaozhuang, who was holding a torch, shouted at the gunner again.

"What the hell are you doing in a daze, pretending to be a cannon and bombing the fucking ......"

After that burst of white smoke dissipated, looking at the street that had been swept away by lead, Yu Shujie shouted.

"Good!"

Then he immediately turned back and said to the military gate.

"Junmen, this person is very decisive, he will be able to reuse it in the future......"

At this time, he saw the military gate beside him, his expression was very solemn, and he stared at the street that was swept away by lead bullets, Zhu Mingzhong's heart, which he thought had become hard-hearted, was still touched, and he muttered in his mouth.

"My brother, what the hell, what is Li Ziyuan doing to eat, why hasn't he broken the city yet! If...... Lao Tzu must sacrifice his head to the brothers! ”

When the words fell, his eyes were fixed on the direction of the Divine Gate, if, if everything is as it is in history, then the hope of breaking the city is there!

From the very beginning, when Zhu Mingzhong pinned his hopes for breaking the city on the Shence Gate, and even when he had not deceived the opening of the Jimen, in the big tent of the Zheng Army's forward camp outside the Shence Gate, Zhu Daxian was lobbying Yu Xin.

"Will the Qing soldiers of the Shence Gate really move?"

Again, Yu Xin, who was the commander of the forward battalion, looked at Zhu Daxian, who was once the general's clerk, and the two had hundreds of relationships, but he had always looked down on scholars.

"General, the Qing army accounts for half of the whole city in this Shence Gate, if someone launches it in Tongji Gate, how can Lang Tingzuo not move?"

Staring at Yu Xin, Zhu Daxian knew that no matter what, he had to persuade this person to send troops to attack the city, after all, the junior brother's troops were too small.

"Tongjimen?"

Frowning and staring at Zhu Daxian, Yu Xin's brows raised slightly.

"You mean, Zhu Mingzhong opened the city gate from Tongji Gate, and after launching there, I took advantage of the emptiness of the Qing army on the Shence Gate to attack the city?"

If it were a normal siege, this would be an opportunity, but now ...... Yu Xin said after a moment of silence.

"Although Yu advocated attacking the city immediately, if there was no order from the general, how could Yu transfer troops out of the camp to attack the city? Besides, do you know that this siege is not just about attacking the city, not to mention anything else, but how can it take three or two hours for the siege equipment in this camp to be sent to the city......

When Yu Xin emphasized the objective difficulties, Zhu Daxian said with a smile.

"The generals are soldiers, so naturally they don't dare to whisper, but does the general know the difference between this divine sect?"

"What's the difference?"

"Exactly!"

Subsequently, Zhu Daxian explained.

This Shence Gate is the most unusual one among the thirteen inner city gates of the Nanjing City Wall, and the related legend is a folk slip of the tongue: "Inner thirteen, outer eighteen, a door bolt is inserted outward." And this "bolt to the outward" city gate refers to the Shence Gate, and the folk have vividly summarized its special architectural form. The scale of the Shence Gate is small, the city gate is inside, the urn city is outside, and the urn gate is not directly facing the city gate, but is open in the northeast corner of the urn city, so the Shence gate is also called the outer urn city gate. And this is not the most distinctive place, in the inner city of Nanjing, there is only one door opening in the twelve city gates, only the god gate has two door openings on the left and right. Liu Bowen, the prime minister of the Hongwu period, believed that this place was a place where soldiers must fight, and they must be able to attack and defend. It should only be opened when the military situation is urgent and the last resort is necessary. ”

Zhu Daxian's explanation made Yu Xin's brows jump suddenly, and he looked at Zhu Daxian in surprise.

"And a city gate? This, how can the general not know? ”

Although he had studied in Nanjing, Zheng Chenggong naturally had no way of knowing this kind of military secret, and naturally did not know that outside Weng City, another "hidden gate" would be built. This hidden door made of bricks and stones does not look any different from ordinary city walls, but the ordinary door hole has always been blocked with bricks and stones, and it has been almost unknown for hundreds of years. Although it is a military fortress, it is rarely populated due to its remote location. The city gates were also largely closed.

Because of this, although this is facing the big tent (Shogunate Mountain) on Baitu Mountain, it is not valued by Zheng Chenggong, and the vigilance of the Ming army in this area is also extremely lax, and even when the officers and soldiers of the left wing battalion of the three thousand loyal and righteous army wearing red clothes arrived in the area of Shence Gate, there was no one to stop them along the way, but for the defenders on the Shence Gate, when they saw this support army, they were still startled, but it was only limited to this, after all, in this area of Shence Gate, there were 5,000 troops guarded, The most important reason why Lang Tingzuo stationed most of his troops here was that he had ordered people to reopen the Hidden Gate, so that if necessary, he could send troops to attack the Ming army outside the city.

The "hidden gate" was only a thin wall, which could be pierced by striking the wall one after another, and then the soldiers in the city would quietly attack the enemy outside the city through this side gate. It is precisely because of this that Lang Tingzuo will deploy most of his troops here to prevent the Zheng army from entering the city from here. However, he did not expect that someone would cheat the city, let alone that the people who cheated the city would risk their lives and use themselves as bait to lure Lang Tingzuo to transfer the defenders near the Shence Gate to Tongji Gate.

"You, you mean, you can knock it away with just a slight bump?"

Listening to Zhu Daxian's explanation, Yu Xin's whole person was stunned, he almost couldn't believe his ears, if he had known that there was a vulnerable "hidden door" near the Shence Gate, I am afraid that he would have already crashed into that door and entered Nanjing, how could he not be moved when he heard Zhu Daxian say this.

Noticing the eagerness in Yu Xin's eyes, Zhu Daxian said in an accentuated tone.

"Exactly, with just a slight bump, you can knock open the door, and now that Zhu Junmen's deployment has already explored the location of this gate, just wait for the Tongji Gate to launch, when Lang Tingzuo transfers troops, he will break open this gate and enter the city!"

"But, there is no general's military order, and besides, if Lang Tingzuo does not move, what if he startles the snake?"

Facing Yu Xin's concerns, Zhu Daxian said in a low voice.

"Then how can the general allow the success of taking the city and missing it in front of him? Furthermore, has this merit broken the city? How could the general blame the general? As for Lang Tingzo......"

After a moment of silence, a painful color flashed in Zhu Daxian's eyes.

"If he doesn't transfer troops, my Zhongyi Palace will naturally fight to tear a way for the general! The general can only lead his troops into the city......"

Just when his voice fell, there was a faint sound of an arrow in the air, listening to the voice, Zhu Daxian said in an accentuated tone.

"General, my family's military gate has been launched, and the first merit of Ming history is in front of me, please make up your mind as soon as possible!"
