Twelve or thirteen millimeters of lead in diameter hit the human body at such a distance, the wound formed is very terrible, into a small hole, but can be the human body's internal organs at once, if it hits the arm, neck, the huge kinetic energy can almost tear the human head and arms away from the human body on the spot, in short, at a distance of dozens of steps, even if you are wearing iron armor, you can't stop such a lead bullet.

Of course, the most terrifying thing is that when he hits the head directly, the human head is like a rotten watermelon that blooms, the brain bursts and dies miserably, and the person who is shot dies simply, a hundred, but such a scene will undoubtedly become a nightmare for their lives for other people around him, and it will linger for the rest of their lives.

This kind of killing and wounding made the little morale of the defenders of the city that had just been summoned fall suddenly, and the officers and soldiers were so frightened that they hid under the battlement wall one after another, not daring to rise up like just now, and fired guns and arrows downward.

Zhao Er Donkey has been leading his troops to rush to the city, for this siege, Zhao Er Donkey showed quite bravery, this year, he is really aggrieved, since that time he was defeated in Liujiabao, although ordinary people don't care much, but he is deeply ashamed, the experience of that fiasco, in his opinion, has become an inextricable stain on his body, for which he paid a heavy price, originally with his qualifications, now at least should be on an equal footing with Luo Li, Li Xuanzhu, Yan Chongxi, but because of that defeat, But he could only deign to be under Li Xuanzhu and be a deputy.

Although the Xingtian Army fought several battles with the official army after the year, he failed to get the opportunity to perform and reshape his image in Xiao Tianjian's heart, and this time he attacked Yongning County, he was the first echelon in the attack, and on the other hand, Luo Li, who was famous for his fierceness, was attacking the East Gate, how could he make achievements in this battle, overpower Luo Li, let the Xingtian Army look up and down, he Zhao Erdonkey is not a bad breed, compared to Luo Li and their battalion commanders, he is also good!

So when the siege began, Zhao Erdonkey was ruthless, rushed to the front first, dispatched the soldiers under his command, and after unfolding, while suppressing the defenders on the city wall, he personally supervised the battle, and urged his soldiers to start climbing over the sheep and horse wall outside the city and leaning under the city wall.

Because the Xingtian Army came too quickly, they didn't give the Yongning County defenders much time to prepare, and they didn't even have time to build a rejection horse and a deer outside the city, but just scattered some thistles under the foot of the city to stop the attack of the thief army, not to mention that in the past few years, they have long been accustomed to fighting with the surrounding bandits, and they have never encountered such a fierce opponent as the Xingtian Army.

Although Wu Dalie, the magistrate of the county, personally sat in the south of the city to supervise the battle, but when he saw the fierce thief army outside the city clearly, the defenders in the city were still frightened.

Some officers and soldiers tried to release arrows through the arrow holes in the battlements, but to their surprise, the musketeers of the thieves under the city fired very accurately, and they could actually hit some projectiles directly into the arrow holes, and immediately beat the people lying in the arrow holes to the brains and turned on their backs on the city wall.

As a result, the defenders began to be unable to stand up, and some timid people wanted to flee from the city, but at this time, Wu Dalie, who was a civil official, became angry, opened the Qingfeng sword in his hand, and cut down several defenders who tried to escape from the city one after another, and shouted with red eyes: "We are the officials and soldiers of the imperial court, and we eat the king's money and take the court's money, how can we run away without a fight?" Today, my martial artist is here, if anyone takes half a step back, he will blame the sword in the hand of the official for being merciless! These people are your example, and if anyone dares to escape, they will end up like them! Give this official a call! Roll the wood! Beat them down to the officer! As long as you repel them, the prince will have a heavy reward! Kill! ”

Seeing that this Wuzhi County is like a madman, holding a sword dripping with human blood, blocking the horse crossing leading to the city, not allowing anyone to escape, the defenders in the city have lost their attention, seeing that the wooden ladders are being erected by the thieves on the city wall, these defenders are really forced to fire, anyway, they are all dead horizontally and vertically, it is better to fight to the death, after all, their wives and children are in the city, once the thieves break in, then God knows how these thieves will treat them, since they are even dignified county magistrates, At this time, they are all crazy in the city, so what are they to be afraid of, these little soldiers?

In this way, these defenders, who had been frightened, were much more courageous, and began to lift the rolling wood and stones one by one, and threw them towards the city with all their might, and some soldiers even erected door panels, large shields and other things, and supported them on the city wall to prevent bullets, hid behind the shields and door panels, and began to fire arrows again towards the city.

There were even some officers and soldiers who hurriedly reloaded the guns on the city wall with ammunition, pushed the cannons to the battlements, and lit the cannons against the people of the Xingtian army who were surging under the city.

I only heard the chaotic roar and shouting of killing on the city, and suddenly countless rolling wood stones and various bullets were thrown down from the city, and the Xingtian army members who had been leaning on the foot of the city, although they raised their shields, but the offensive was still contained at the foot of the city wall, and the rolling wood and stones that fell on their heads and faces were immediately stoned to death and wounded, and they were lying under the city wall screaming.

There was also a group of soldiers, carrying a long ladder, was climbing over the sheep and horse wall, trying to rush to the foot of the city wall, a bowl of scattered bullets fell in their crowd, and immediately they were hit with flesh and blood, fell down, and even the ladder was blown into two sections on the spot, the casualties were very heavy, more than a dozen soldiers rolled behind the sheep and horse wall, and the screams were terrible to the extreme.

And that's not all, the defenders of the city also prepared some fire oil and gold juice, which were burned on the city wall, and when they saw the siege soldiers, leaning against the foot of the city wall, they immediately carried the cauldron, or scooped up these things with a big horse spoon, and poured them down from the city, and these hot gold juice that exuded a foul smell, as long as it was poured on the skin of the person, it immediately burned the skin and flesh of the person, and the pain made the person roll all over the ground.

Just when everything was going well, seeing that the long ladders were erected on the city wall, Zhao Erdonkey's heart was ecstatic, but the counterattack that broke out in the city in an instant made him suddenly feel as if he had been hit head-on, and the defenders were stunned to push down several long ladders, and the momentum of the attack was also stopped.

Zhao Erdonkey scolded angrily outside the city wall, but seeing that the casualties were too large, it was not a way to fight like this, if he forced the generals to rush up, in addition to increasing the casualties, it was likely that he would not be able to achieve greater results, so he had to temporarily order a retreat and reorganize the team to do a second charge.

Seeing the thieves retreat like a tide, Wu Dalie suddenly had weak legs, and almost sat on the city wall, just now he also relied on a bloody bravery, hard support on the city wall to supervise the battle, forcing these defenders to resist to the death, and now finally repelled the enemy's first attack, he looked at the corpses of several officers and soldiers who were killed by his own hands at his feet, and then looked at the officers and soldiers who were lying on the city wall, and couldn't help but be a little afraid, and the strength of his body seemed to be suddenly emptied, He almost lost his strength and sat in a pool of blood, that is, the two servants of his subordinates helped him, and he forced himself not to sit down.

However, the defenders of the city, when they saw that the thieves had retreated, also breathed a long sigh of relief, and some people let out cheers, so many defenders on the city wall followed with a roar.

However, some officers were still relatively sober, and hurriedly organized people to knock down several long ladders that had been erected on the city wall, and dropped some torches, poured fire oil, and set fire to the abandoned long ladders under the city.

Xiao Tianjian silently looked at the battle situation in front of him, for such a battle situation, he was fully mentally prepared, Yongning County was strong, and the defenders had not lost confidence, it was obviously not easy to attack the city in one fell swoop.

After Zhao Erdon led the team to launch the first attack failed, it was not long before the Luo Lisuo department in the east of the city also came with news that the first wave of attacks they organized also ended in failure under the fierce resistance of the defenders of the city, and they were forced to retreat, and they were reorganizing the second attack.

Looking at the casualties and generals who were carried down one by one, Xiao Tianjian's face was cold, and he ordered to immediately send them to the temporary medical camp behind for treatment, and he handed over more things to Li Xuanzhu and Luo Li to deal with by themselves.

Although the first attack was unsuccessful, he also saw that now the ability of the Xingtian Army to attack the fortification is much stronger than at the beginning, after the artillery attack, the infantry launched an attack, and the musketeers suppressed the defenders on the city wall with a platoon of guns, and supported the attacking troops to climb the wall as much as possible, these tactics have gradually matured, and the battalions also pay more attention to mutual cooperation when organizing the attack, so that the casualties of the attacking troops are controlled within an acceptable range, in short, compared to what he expected, The performance of the attacking troops was relatively satisfactory to him.

The reason why the attack failed was not because the soldiers were greedy for life and afraid of death, but because the will of the defenders in the city to resist had not been completely destroyed, and at the same time, he also saw that the training and equipment of the defenders were very limited, and the troops were also at a disadvantage, so he had no doubt at all that the next attack would get better and better, and it was only a matter of time before he took Yongning County.

And what he is more concerned about now is the official reaction, as well as the reaction of the local bandits, when he attacked Yongning County, he didn't want to see any of them come here to get involved.

For Yidougu and clay pots, which are often active in the local area, before he led his troops south, Feng Gouzi had already arranged for Xizuo to investigate in this area, so Xiao Tianjian already knew something about their situation.

This Yidougu and clay pot are all local heroes, pull the pole and rebel in a gang, in fact, they just want to be a bandit who is entrenched on one side, and they can't even be called an ordinary rebel, their military discipline is very corrupt, in addition to dealing with the rich, it is also a harm to the ordinary people in the local area, burning, killing and looting them do everything, so for such thieves, Xiao Tianjian does not regard them as peers, as long as he occupies this area in the future, forces like this also belong to the object of his elimination, Otherwise, if they were allowed to entrench themselves in the surrounding area, he would not be able to complete the effective control and operation of the area.

"Send some scouts to search Bear's Ears Mountain and Oxheart Mountain and other places to find out the situation of the poles in the surrounding area! As soon as you find that the large strands of poles are gathering and coming towards the county seat, you will quickly come to inform me! Xiao Tianjian instructed the iron head who followed him.

Tietou is currently the company commander of the Guards Company, and he is also Xiao Tianjian's adjutant, so when Xiao Tianjian gave orders, many of them were directly conveyed through Tietou, and after having Tietou, a loyal adjutant, Xiao Tianjian did things a little easier.

Tietou immediately nodded in agreement, turned around and began to arrange, this time they brought not only the scout team of the battalion, but also Situ Liang's cavalry brought 300 people as their assault force and auxiliary reconnaissance force.

After a short time, Situ Liang was ordered to send out the cavalry under his command in groups and searched around Yongning County, while Situ Liang personally led a team of cavalry to search in the direction of Luoyang, and the officers and soldiers in the direction of Luoyang sent troops to rescue after receiving a call for help from Yongning County.

In addition, Liu Yaoben's teaching camp was also dispatched, and a blockade line was arranged around Yongning County to prevent the Huangzhuang of King Wan'an outside the city and the surrounding big families from sending Xiangyong Zhuang Ding into the county seat to support, completely isolating the county seat.

Soon after these arrangements were completed, the 2nd and 3rd Battalions adjusted their deployment again and began to attack Yongning County again.

On the one hand, the battalion artillery team continued to suppress the defenders at the head of the city, and on the other hand, more musketeers were dispatched to press outside the city to provide more powerful fire support for the pikemen and knife players responsible for the attack, and at the same time, the grenadiers selected by the knife players were grouped into the offensive echelon, and the company was used as a unit to form a wave attack to maintain the continuity of the attack.

And the people of the engineer battalion did not stay idle, and were ordered by Xiao Tianjian to directly join the offensive formation, providing cover for the attacking troops to clear obstacles, and also taking on the task of transporting the wounded downward.

After this arrangement, the position of the battalion artillery team that had fallen silent outside the city roared again, and the solid projectiles suddenly flew up the city wall like locusts, causing dust and rubble to fly on the city wall, and from time to time there would be human limbs and flesh rising on the city wall.

The Xingtian Army members who were ready to attack pursed their lips tightly, clenched the weapons in their hands one by one, and began to slowly enter the starting position, adjusting the attack formation......
