What kind of tactic is this? In fact, this is the article "Burning Xinye" that Ma Lin learned from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". At the beginning, Cao's army was strong, and Zhuge Liang saw Cao Cao's army attacking after "burning Bowangpo", and knew that he was not capable of the enemy, so he took the initiative to withdraw from Xinye City and gave Xinye City to Cao's army.

That night, Cao Jun rested in the city. But Zhuge Liang had already left a shadow in the city, and he also prepared enough materials to set fire. Then, while Cao Jun was asleep, the shadow son left by Zhuge Liang was fire in Xinye City, which caused Cao Jun to be in chaos. Seeing the fire all over the city, Cao's army fled from the east gate, and then was chased and killed by Zhao Yun's army for a while, with huge losses. And Cao Jun fled to the White River, and was opened by Guan Yu to release water, drowning a large number of soldiers and horses......

Of course, it is, not really. Moreover, the strategy of "burning the new wilderness" in Naples City will not work. Why? This is due to the difference in building materials between the East and the West. In the city of Naples, the structure of masonry houses is predominant, and it is not easy to ignite. In ancient China, Xinye City was dominated by wooden houses, which was convenient for setting fires.

Moreover, in order to avoid being injured by the Spanish muskets, the French army specially chose to leave the city on a rainy day. Even if there are many wooden houses in Naples, it is not easy to set fires. Therefore, it is not possible to copy the "fire of the new field".

Marin thought about it and had no choice but to adopt a weakened version of "Burning Xinye". That is, there was no "fire", but the back door was left to facilitate the French army to kill back the carbines.

The Spaniards had never seen any schemes, and after entering the fortified city of Naples, they would certainly not have imagined that the French army would kill back the rifles, and this was the opportunity of the French army......

……

Sure enough, when the French army arrived outside the city, the Spaniards did not move at the top of the city. At this time, the French horses stopped 5 kilometers away, and they all sealed their mouths with strips of cloth, and wrapped the horses' hooves with thick cloth to avoid making too much noise. Then, all the French soldiers dismounted and walked, leaving only some of the men in the distance to protect Louis XII and his party.

The rest of the men, including the French knights, dismounted and walked with their two-handed swords......

On a rainy night, it was pitch black and there was no light. But the French, who were familiar with the terrain, moved cautiously hand in hand, and came to a point not far from the city walls.

Then, hundreds of knights took the lead in coming to an old tree, and opened the hole in the tree, revealing the black hole......

"Get down down and into the city!" The French commander ordered.

But the French knight who took the lead was a little depressed and said:

"There's no light in the tunnel, you can't see anything!"

The commander handed him a canvas bag and said:

"It's candles, and it's a fire fold (a fire rope in a tube that the spark won't be discovered) and gunpowder. Once inside, light a candle and stick it on the wall. Remember, no light is allowed on the side of the entrance. Otherwise, military law engages! ”

The knight nodded, went into the tunnel, and then lit candles inside, which were inserted into the walls on either side. In this way, there is no need to discredit the tunnels.

Then, 100 French knights, who were powerful in foot combat, entered the bright tunnels one after another and quietly moved forward......

Arriving at the exit of the cemetery behind the chapel on the north wall of the city, the French knight who had the head carefully and slowly removed the hollow tombstone, climbed up, and then, turning around, returned to the tunnel.

"How? Is there a guard around here? ”

"The church door was closed, and there was a wheelbarrow in front of it, and there were probably a few Spaniards living in it. However, it doesn't matter, we can go around from behind and not alarm them. As for the door, I don't dare to approach it, there is probably someone stationed there, it doesn't matter, we can just kill it later. Anyway, the Spaniards at the north gate did not block the city gate hole with debris! The French knight at the head reported.

The commander nodded, and whispered to the French knights who had come up with him:

"Don't say anything else, warriors of France, get ready to fight!"

Everyone nodded silently, pulled down the masks of the plate armor helmets one after another, and then, led by the commander, crawled out of the hollow tombstone with light hands. Then, they left the cemetery, clinging to the city walls, and quietly approached the north gate, two hundred meters away......

……

At this time, it was past 4 o'clock in the morning, and it was almost dawn. But it is this time period when people are most sleepy. At this time, the Spanish soldiers were basically asleep, and the night patrol team would go to rest in the middle of the night.

100 French knights walked all the way to the inside of the North Gate, but they were not found. Then the commander ordered several torches to be lit with fire breakers, which illuminated the hole in the city gate......

"Who?" At this time, a Spanish goalkeeper who was sleeping in a daze in the city gate saw the firelight, yawned and asked casually in Spanish.

However, he had no chance to know the answer. Seeing that the defenders were alarmed, the French commander immediately ordered a storm. Before the Spanish soldier could stand up, the French knight who rushed forward chopped into several pieces with his two-handed broadsword......

Subsequently, more than 30 Spanish troops in the cave of the city gate were wiped out in a very short time. After all, they were up against French knights with high martial arts. Moreover, it is still a French knight in plate armor, who is too special to bully people......

But the battle in the cave of the city gate still alarmed the Spaniards in the city. The Spanish defenders in a courtyard near the city gate cave were immediately awakened when they heard the terrible howl coming from the city gate cave. Then its commander blew the horn, alarming the whole city.

Hearing the sound of the horn, the French vanguard commander was anxious, and after ordering several French knights to open the city gate, he led the others to gather at the inner exit of the city gate to prevent the Spaniards from counterattacking.

And after opening the city gates, several French knights in the back shouted in French:

"Rush, brothers!"

Then, outside the city gate, a large number of French troops rushed to the city gate......

After repelling the first Spanish soldiers who counterattacked, the main French army was already close to the gate. The commander of the vanguard of the French army, seeing that the army was coming, immediately ordered:

"Warriors, follow me!" Then, brandishing his broadsword, he took the lead and rushed forward, followed by 100 French knights behind him, making way for the French soldiers behind him......

A large number of French soldiers then poured into the city, rushing along the streets, led by French knights on foot.

At this time, all kinds of horns sounded throughout the city of Naples, and the Spanish soldiers hurriedly got up......

Armed with weapons, groups of Spanish soldiers rushed into the streets, driven by the officers, to fend off the French charge.

But the French knights who charged at the front were so fierce that the ordinary Spanish infantry was defenseless in front of them. After all, these open-hung French knights were wearing invulnerable plate armor, and the two-handed swords they wielded in their hands were extremely lethal......

As a result, the Spanish army retreated in the streets and retreated in the direction of the Governor's Palace of Naples, in the center of the city. There, there lived 5 Supreme Commanders of the Spanish Army......
