Chapter 325: Stubborn Resistance
The power of the elm spray is very great, hitting the ground, even the frozen soil has risen countless pillars of smoke, but hitting those strange things, there is no effect of the collapse of the earth that the owner of Zhao Zhuang expected, after splashing a piece of ice and a few strands of cotton wool on it, there is no movement, even if the owner of Zhao Zhuang is well-informed, he is puzzled.
Just as he was stunned, he saw that the monster that had been hit only paused, and then began to move slowly, slowly but very firmly.
The owner of Zhao Zhuang hurriedly yelled at the stunned Xiangyong Zhuang Ding; "What are you still doing in a daze, quickly release the arrows, stop him, and the gunner quickly loads."
Xiang Yong woke up from the shock and stepped forward to release the arrow charge.
But as soon as a group of people rushed to the edge of the battlement, there was a sudden thunderous noise under the wall, and lead swept across the wall like a storm, and there was another bloody rain and a wail on the wall, and there was no one standing there.
Lord Zhao Zhuangzi knows. This is the ten elm sprays of the thieves under the city, and the people are divided into two groups of launches, so cunning bandits.
Seeing that there were thieves taking advantage of this gap to run to the front of the elm spray, and began to load gunpowder nervously but methodically, the owner of Zhao Zhuang was in a hurry, and shouted again and again that his fellow villagers also hurriedly loaded the ammunition and released arrows, but after shouting for a long time, no one agreed, and when he looked back, he saw those villagers squatting on the ground with pale faces and trembling, where is the courage to fight? Master Zhao Zhuang knew that now was the critical time of life and death, so he could not hesitate for a minute and shouted; "Children of the Zhao family, follow me." After speaking, the long body stood up and pounced on the elm spray, dozens of Zhao family disciples saw that the patriarch had risked their lives, and their blood was also surging, some held a big shield and some carried the door panel and rushed up, against the rain of arrows that continued to shoot up under the city, while fighting back while spraying the two elm sprays, after losing a few children, the Zhao Zhuang owner ignited two elm sprays with red eyes, and listened to the two booming sounds, an elm spray erupted hundreds of iron, knocking down more than a dozen thieves under the city. The other one was put into the empty tube because of the too little charge, and a piece of iron flew out of the muzzle of the cannon weakly, and when he looked at the big shield, the monsters had approached the city wall, and one had simply entered the city gate hole, at this time, dozens of outlaws smashed the boulder on the city to a monster, but only let the monster shake a few times but did not break, the bow and arrow against him, even the arrow could not shoot in.
"Pour out the oil." A kid looked at this invulnerable thing but came up with a way, in principle, everything is afraid of fire.
was reminded by him, so braving the rain of arrows in the city, several strong men carried a bucket of hot oil and fell desperately, and then a villager raised a torch to throw, but was immediately killed by a few sharp arrows, and another child picked it up and quickly leaned out and threw it, but it was also immediately pierced by several sharp arrows, but the torch still accurately fell on the monster that was already covered with fire oil.
"Bang", the flames soared, and some people in the city and under the city said that they opened their mouths and stared for a while, waiting for the result, forgetting to counterattack and attack.
The flames burned for a while, and I saw several fire people covered in fire screaming and running out under the monster, and when everyone was stunned by such a scene, a loud sound of the sky and the earth cracked, and the monster was blown up in an instant, and the flying dust and wood fragments flew all over the sky, almost ten zhang, and fell to the city like rain, and there was nothing left where the monster existed, leaving only a large pit with billowing smoke, and the powerful shock wave made the city walls tremble.
Lord Zhao Zhuang and the people in the city were defenseless, and they were knocked to the ground and became a gourd rolling on the ground.
The Black Tiger Army arrayed outside the city was also affected, not only the archers who were close were shocked a lot, but mainly the two monsters next to each other were suddenly overturned by a huge wave of qi, revealing more than a dozen people who were shocked and confused, most of them had died of bleeding from their mouths and noses, and the rest were like drunks, staggering and staggering.
Zhao Zhuang is also a person who has seen the world, just after this explosion, he immediately judged that this is the thief who used the thunder thunder used by the official army to defend the city, but he has seen the thunder, that thing is thunder and rain, but a burst of fireworks, scaring people mostly, the killing effect is not good at all, it can only be used to defend the city, where is there such a great power? If you want to achieve such power, how many thunderbolts do you need to ignite and explode together?
Got up with a disgraced face, and looked out of the wall with his hand, and saw that the other two monsters had also been overturned by the huge explosion, revealing more than a dozen people underneath, each bleeding from the mouth and nose seemed to have suffered internal injuries and could not survive for a long time, but he saw the clues, two of them rolled down beside four square, wrapped by thick cotton cloth, maybe this is the explosive that was ignited by the fire just now, why is such a small thing, but has so much power? But now I don't have time to think about it, now I know that this is an invulnerable monster but I am very afraid of fire, and the owner of Zhao Zhuang shouted to the ignorant subordinates around him who were also shocked; "Hurry up, pour fire oil immediately, this thing is afraid of fire, hurry up."
All the people were inspired, and rushed up together, and threw fire oil out of the city in the face of the rain of arrows under the city, hoping to completely stop these deadly monsters.
But at this time, it was too late, and I saw that half of the monster that moved to the city gate cave had already entered the city gate hole, and before the fire oil fell, a few people rushed out from under it, and ran away from the black tiger thief team, although there were more than a dozen arrows in the back, but there was no big problem with the protection of double rattan armor, and he ran back to the team in a moment.
Then the archers of the thieves also quickly retreated to their own team, and Lord Zhao Zhuang saw that he couldn't help the monster in the city gate cave and jumped to his feet in a hurry, but he also stared at it uselessly.
At this moment, another dull explosion exploded in the city gate hole, followed by a puff of black smoke mixed with broken wood and masonry spewed out of the city, and then the rammed earth-based and not very strong city wall shook for a while, and suddenly countless cracks crawled all over the city gate like thousands of thin snakes, and then the city wall collapsed like a walnut cake.
The entire fortress wall of Zhaojiabao is like a big mouth without front teeth, standing empty in the cold wind of this winter.
The stars are done. shouted with a wave of the saber; "Avenge the brothers, kill the entire Zhao family, brothers rush." A clip on the belly of the horse. The first rushed to the slope formed by the masonry of the city gate of Zhaojiabao, which had been blown down.
The cavalry behind Guo Tianxing had already had blood-red eyes, and they were waiting for the commander's order to charge, and when they gave the order, they all rushed forward, shouting a terrible killing sound and rushing over like a burning flame.
The surviving Zhao Zhuang owner immediately left the village Yong on the city wall and rushed down to the city with his close sons and nephews.
The city has been broken, and it is pointless to guard the wall again, now is the time for the whole clan to fight in the streets, I am very grateful to the thieves for their persuasion at that moment, and if they do not surrender, they will destroy the entire Zhao family, hahaha, this is exactly what I want. There is no way out, and it is the time for the whole clan to fight desperately in the streets.
Wu Tao saw Tianxing piling up along the gentle slope of the collapsed city wall, leading the cavalry to rush into it frantically, and he stomped his feet in a hurry.
Cavalry is not a street fighting class at all, and it will definitely suffer a big loss. But it was impossible to stop him, and the Grand Commander had already been stabbed in the eyes by his brother's dead and wounded. Now it was only his own spearmen who decided the victory, so he shouted after him; "The spearmen are in battle, rush."
The neatly lined spearmen beat their spears and shouted loudly; "For the fathers and elders behind him, he will not retreat. Kill. In the atmosphere of slaughter, the waist drum sounded, everyone stepped together, and the entire black and heavy military array was like a black cloud in the sky, slowly and forcefully pressing towards the collapsed city wall of Zhaojiabao.
There was no resistance on the city wall for a long time, and Xiang Yong and the children of the Zhao family retreated into the city.
After crossing the city wall, Wu Tao saw the embarrassment of the Tianxing cavalry, and the road leading to the Zhao family ancestral hall in the center of the fortress had been completely blocked by the Zhao family's children with broken tables and chairs. It was difficult for the cavalry of the sky to move an inch, and the children of the Zhao family continued to climb to the houses on both sides under the command of the owner of Zhao Zhuang, and condescendingly opened their bows and arrows.
More than 400 cavalry hedgehogs gathered in a group, and they were only passively beaten, but they had no power to fight back. I was angry and screamed but helpless.
Fortunately, the cavalry was also equipped with double-layered rattan armor and rattan helmets, as well as rattan cards, but there were not many casualties. But after this delay, Lord Zhao Zhuang had already begun to allocate manpower, lurked in the houses on both sides of the road, and began to block the cavalry of the Black Tiger Star.
Wu Tao came in with a spearman, and when he saw that the Black Tiger Star could not advance or retreat, he immediately sought the way through the Heavenly Star, and said anxiously; "The commander quickly let the cavalry withdraw, this street battle is still a spearman."
Although the stars in the sky were already red, they were thunderous. But not yet losing their minds. At the next call, he hatefully led the cavalry to make way for the spearmen.
Wu Tao waved his hand, and the spearmen began to fill the first line with the rigorous drum beat to replace the open space of the cavalry.
The longbowmen of the firearms battalion also began to form two rows to suppress the village archers on the houses on both sides, and this adjustment immediately changed the situation.
The gun array rolled forward, and when he encountered a broken table and a broken chair, he used a spear to pick it open, and he pierced a transparent hole for the children of the Zhao family who were blocking his advance, and the gun array began to roll up unstoppably.
But the owner of Zhao Zhuang is not an easy person, seeing that this method is different, he immediately changed his tactics, and ordered Xiang Yong and the children of the clan to sneak into various houses with short blades, and really began to fight for the Black Tiger Army house by house. This time, the Black Tiger Army began to suffer casualties again.
The cavalry could not enter the house, but the spearmen could not use it in the house because the guns were too long, so there was no progress except for the street, and they were constantly attacked from behind by the Xiang Yong and the children of the Zhao family who rushed out of the house, and the so-called occupation was just a street and alley, and the others had no results at all.
Wu Tao also once ordered people to shout, surrender their guns, and surrender on their knees, but because of Guo Tianxing's shouting in the city, he once said that once he resisted, the Manchus would be slaughtered when Zhuang Po. This gave Zhao Jiazhuang the heart of hatred and hatred.
The whole village of Zhaojiabao is surnamed Zhao, and only a few village warriors are temporarily recruited, so they all have the determination to resist to the end, and both men and women pick up swords and guns to fight to the death with the Black Tiger Army.
Now for the Zhao clan of Zhaojiabao, war is death, and not fighting is death, so let's fight.
