"Enemy attack!" Inside the city of Mumbai, an explosion was heard outside the city, and the sleeping Naldeden was awakened.

Hastily dressed, Nend arrived at the city walls and the sound of explosions outside the city had gradually faded.

At this time, the staff officer who had returned from the position outside the city saw Nard on the city wall, so he stepped forward and said: "General, this is just a sneak attack by the Great Zhou army, which has been repelled by our army, so the general does not need to worry too much. ”

Hearing this, Nold was relieved.

However, as soon as he stepped down the city wall, the explosion outside the city sounded again, and Nold hurriedly returned to the city wall to look at the position outside, "What does this Sun Dingzong want to do?" ”

The explosions outside the city, one after another, the other disappearing, and the opportunity every half an hour made Nolde depressed.

"Come to think of it, the Great Zhou army doesn't want our army to rest well!" The staff officer replied.

After listening to the staff officer's words, Nold felt more and more that such a possibility was possible.

Like tonight, let alone encountering it, Nolde has never even heard of it.

The previous wars in Europe did not mean that there were no night raids, but it was the first time that Nolde had seen the Great Zhou army like a dog's skin plaster.

So there is no good solution for this situation.

So the next morning, when Nard came to the position outside the city, he encountered such a situation: the British soldiers had dark circles on their faces, and they looked like they had not rested.

Even, many soldiers were lying on the trenches of the position, looking like they were sleeping.

Seeing this, Nold was worried: "If this continues, I'm afraid that the soldiers won't be able to hold out for long." ”

The result was indeed as Nard's expectation, and in this day's battle, the Great Zhou army advanced another two miles to the British position.

Now, only the last three lines of defense left in the fortifications built by the British outside the city.

Moreover, the number of British casualties in this day's fighting more than tripled compared to yesterday.

"This can't be done, if the Great Zhou army comes to sneak attack again tonight, I'm afraid that the army outside the city will be wiped out by the Great Zhou army!" Thinking of this, Nold had to follow the advice of his staff and withdraw his army into the city.

On the side of the Great Zhou army, after Sun Dingzong saw that the British army had withdrawn to the city, he summoned the generals to discuss: "Now that the British army has withdrawn to the city, if our army wants to sneak attack again, it is almost impossible." So the old man thought, why don't we take the opportunity to blow up the walls of Mumbai, not only what do you think? ”

"But the walls of Mumbai are so tall that it's almost impossible to blow them up!" The adjutant general worried.

"You don't have to worry about this, the old man has his own way to blow up the city wall!" Sun Dingzong is confident.

"General, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and blow up the city wall for the general!" At this time, Zhang An stood up and said.

In Zhang An's opinion, since his own commander has a way to force the British army to retreat into the city, there must also be a way to blow up the city wall.

Hearing this, Sun Dingzong stared at Zhang An's sides for a while before he spoke: "In this case, tonight's sneak attack on the city wall will still be led by Commander Zhang!" ”

Leading everyone to retreat, Sun Dingzong told Zhang An his plan: "Commander Zhang, have you heard of the explosives package?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang An was a little confused, shook his head and said, "No!" ”

Speaking of which, Zhang An's subordinates are all ordinary soldiers, and at most they have thrown some grenades, and they have not even touched the musket a few times, and how do they know about the explosives package.

Sun Dingzong explained: "You have also seen the power of hand grenades, if dozens of grenades are bundled together and detonated, how powerful do you say it will be?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang An's eyes lit up and said, "Naturally, it's earth-shattering!" ”

In fact, the firearms department of the Great Zhou has developed an explosive package, but it has never been equipped with an army on a large scale, so Sun Dingzong's side actually does not have an explosive package.

But Sun Dingzong had been staying in the capital before, and he was always one of the first people to know about the weapons developed by the Firearms Division, so Sun Dingzong couldn't forget the power of the explosives pack.

Although Sun Dingzong did not understand any physical and chemical principles, in Sun Dingzong's view, the so-called explosive package was nothing more than concentrating more gunpowder together, thus triggering a more destructive and stronger explosion.

So Sun Dingzong thought, since this is the case, if the dozens of grenades are bundled together and detonated, I am afraid that the effect will not be small, so he thought of this idea.

However, just in case, this night, Sun Dingzong personally came to Zhang An's military camp to instruct the soldiers on how to tie up, how to tie up and detonate.

After doing this, it was already late at night, and Sun Dingzong quietly came to the city of Mumbai with Zhang An and his family.

"Remember, you must go lightly, and don't let the British on the walls find out. Also, after the grenade is lit, retreat immediately, don't hesitate! ”

Just in case, before taking action, Sun Dingzong naturally had to give thousands of instructions and instructions.

"General rest assured, the inferior people understand!" Several soldiers with grenades replied, crawled out of their positions, and walked lightly towards the city walls.

There was no rest for two days and one night, so after dinner, the British troops who returned to the city rested early.

At this moment, except for the occasional patrolling soldiers passing by on the city wall, it was quiet.

According to the method of Sun Ding's religion before, several soldiers came to the city wall to bury the grenade, lit the fuse and ran outward.

"Boom ......"

The sound of a loud explosion caused the earth to shake.

In the light of the explosion, the British soldiers patrolling the city wall could clearly see the Zhou soldiers running out of the city.

"Enemy attack!" The patrolling British shouted as they shot at the Zhou soldiers who were running wildly outside the city.

However, by the time the British soldiers aimed and shot, the Zhou soldiers outside the city had already rushed out for dozens of meters.

There was a burst of gunshots, and all but one of the unlucky ones who was shot in the thigh were unharmed.

Ordering the wounded soldier to be carried back to the trench, Sun Dingzong began to scrutinize the city wall where the explosion occurred.

Through the dim moonlight, Sun Dingzong found that the city wall was still standing there unharmed.

Seeing this situation, Sun Dingzong frowned lightly and ordered: "Wait for the British troops on the city wall to rest, and then go to a few more people to tie up ten bundles of grenades together and detonate them." Remember, this grenade must be buried deeper, and also, remember the lead, the lead must be longer. ”

"Don't worry, general, just wait for the good news from the last general!" This time, the commander Zhang An decided to go in person......
