Inside the barracks.

Chen De took the letter and handed it to Chen Yongfu and said, "Father, this is shooting from the outside @ in." ”

Chen Yongfu took the letter, opened it and read it, and fell into deep thought, he didn't know whether to go out and talk to Su Jing.

"Father, can you go? Let Li Yan come in and talk, as long as Li Yan is caught and his people are withdrawn. Chen De hurriedly persuaded.

Chen Yongfu sneered and said, "Will he come?" I didn't dare to go out, and he didn't dare to come in either. By the way, all the gunpowder and artillery are here, right? ”

"yes, they're all following us into the city." Chen De replied. After that, he finally reacted and said in surprise: "They still have cannons on the city wall!" That's not good. ”

Chen Yongfu thought for a while and ordered: "Inform them to meet ten steps outside the camp gate." Also, Su Jing and Li Yan must come. ”

"Let's talk to them, children." Chen De hurriedly proposed.

Chen Yongfu waved his hand and said, "You just need to command well in the camp." If I make any mistakes, don't resist, save your life first. Everything will wait until it is opened. ”

Chen De knelt down and said, "If Li Yan dares to do any harm to his father, the child will definitely break him into thousands of pieces and scatter his bones and ashes!" ”

"Alright, get up." Chen Yongfu called Chen De and admonished: "Remember, you must calm down and don't act rashly. Lao Tzu's life is in your hands. ”

"Rest assured, the child knows how to do it." Chen De nodded heavily and said.

After that, the two sides shouted in the air near the camp gate, and after some twists and turns, they finally decided to meet ten steps outside the camp gate.

Li Yan asked the five soldiers to hold their shields and slowly escorted him and Su Jing towards the camp gate. And Chen Yongfu was the same, and walked out of the camp gate under the escort of a layer of shields.

Chen De was on the turret on the left side of the camp gate at this time, and the Franky cannon beside him had already been loaded with sub-cannons, which could be fired as long as they were ignited. However, if the artillery fired solid bullets, it might not be accurate, and if it fired grapeshot bullets, it would hurt his father. So Chen De finally arranged eight archers on each of the turrets on both sides of the camp gate, and they all put their arrows on the bowstring at this time, ready to shoot arrows at any time.

And Wang Renjie looked at the situation in front nervously. Two guns were already aimed at the batteries at both corners, and he had to destroy the battlements above at the first opportunity, and then block them with grapeshot. He is not under pressure either.

"Look at the arquebus, don't let it go out!" Wang Renjie reminded the ignitionist.

From time to time, the igniters blow the arquebuses clamped to the long poles to keep them on the burning.

Outside the South Gate.

General Zhang finally prepared the water bag and let Wang start the attack. This time he had three hundred archers come forward and fire arrows at a distance of one hundred and fifty paces from the city wall, covering the king's men to attack the city.

"Attention! The enemy is about to release arrows, so hide behind the female wall! Wang Renfu ordered loudly.

The captain and the captains repeated the order to keep their men in hiding. Only the person responsible for intercepting Feng Cheng on the horse road is an exception.

He commanded: "Quick, quick, get off the road!" Line up on the horse track! "The best choice is for them to hide in the upper city road, which can not only complete the task of interception, but also avoid the enemy's feathered arrows.

His men began to leave around the corner, down the road. The shield-bearer is in front, the pikeman in the back, and finally the crossbowman. The horse lane was not wide, and only five people could be lined up in each row, so the crossbowmen were discharged in six rows.

As soon as Feng Cheng and the others went down, the feather arrow fell. Some fell on the city wall, some fell in the urn city, and the arrow tower of the urn city is like growing rows of wheat stalks, and dense arrow shafts are inserted everywhere.

He looked behind him and saw that something seemed to be missing. So he commanded his lieutenant, "Go and call some grenadiers, and throw them here, just before you reach the gates." ”

"Yes!" The deputy captain agreed, ordered a few archers behind, held a round shield, and went up to the city wall with a cat.

The deputy captain stepped forward, patted the shoulders of several grenadiers hiding together, and ordered: "Go, follow us!" ”

The grenadier squatted behind the women's wall, and when he looked up, he saw the red fluff more than a foot long on the iron helmet of the deputy team, and knew that it was a captain-level figure. So he said, "Sir, we don't have a shield. ”

"Bring the bomb and walk inside us!" The vice-captain continued to order.

Several grenadiers bent over their waists and came to the inside of the crossbowmen, following the crossbowmen's slow movements, listening to the sound of the arrows falling on their shields.

"Ahh One of the crossbowmen suddenly screamed, and he stopped in pain as he was shot in the calf by a feathered arrow.

The deputy captain glanced back and ordered: "Guo Laixi, don't pretend!" Keep going! ”

The injured Guo Laixi replied: "I know, I can persevere." After saying that, he was supported by the grenadier next to him, and limped on.

After waiting on the horse road, Feng Cheng came over and asked Guo Laixi to sit on the stone steps. He took out a towel, put it around the shaft of the arrow where Guo Laixi was injured, and instructed: "If you don't hurt the bones, press it." When the enemy is repelled this attack, you will be sent to the infirmary. ”

"Captain Xie." Guo Laixi gently pressed the towel and thanked him.

Feng Cheng came to the side of the grenadier behind the archers and ordered: "You guys are throwing bombs right here, and you have to throw them near the city gate, understand?" ”

"Understood." The grenadiers agreed.

In a few moments, the enemy peeked out of the hole in the gate, but there was only one, and he was there to check on the situation. He saw the array on the road clearly, and then retracted.

When the enemy came out again, the first two rows were all sword and shield bearers holding shields, and the other enemies were hiding behind the shield bearers and slowly approaching the horse road.

Feng Cheng never let the crossbowman release the arrows, but ordered the grenadiers: "Throw the bomb!" ”

The Grenadier ignites the bomb with an arquebus, then spins twice in the air with a net rope to gain enough speed, then lets go at the right angle to fly the bomb towards the enemy.

After the bomb fell in the crowd, the king always wanted his men to douse the bomb with water from a water bag. But when it really comes to this time, all the soldiers will retreat into the distance, and who knows when this "10,000-strong enemy" will explode, and it will be safer to stay away.

"Shoot the arrows!" Feng Cheng took advantage of the enemy's panic and broke away from the cover of the shield, so he immediately ordered.

The lieutenant captain behind the pikemen immediately swung his waist knife down, and the crossbowmen in the first row released their arrows. The vice-captain then swung his waist knife down for the second time, and the crossbow arrows in the second row came out in response.

"Boom", "boom", "boom", the three bombs finally exploded one after another, kicking up clouds of black smoke.

After suffering a blow, the enemy immediately took advantage of the smoke and quickly retreated to the city gate, not daring to come out again to invite battle.
