Chapter 156: It's Time to Come

The arrows shot from the head of Tiannan City became more and more frenzied. Those Tiannan defenders had even ignored the rain of arrows shot by the officers and soldiers under the city, and tried their best to poke their bodies out of the arrow stacks on the city tower, and bent their bows to shoot at the officers and soldiers who were approaching rapidly. At any time and anywhere, Huaizhou rebels were shot dead by the archers of officers and soldiers and fell off the city tower. But the threat of death could not stop the Huaiyang soldiers from going berserk in the slightest.

The destruction of the city is imminent, and no one is immune. There is no hope of survival for anyone in Huaiyang City. I just hope that I can repel the offensive of the officers and soldiers again, and one more day of life will be one day. Is there a mad person, holding a gunpowder jar or an oil jar, jumping off the tower, and setting off a wave of death in the crowd of people who climb like ants?

The smoke and smoke of the flames have completely lost people's sense of direction, and they have collapsed half of the lanes of the urn city.

Wu Ningzhen, one of the three towns in Tiannan, will Sun Longqiu, his arm trembling slightly, but he can't lift it, like a dehydrated fish, exhausted to the extreme, and a feeling of weakness envelops his whole body. Scattered all over him were corpses, the corpses of his loyal subordinates, and the corpses of officials and knights.

The cavalry just now rushed in recklessly and slammed into the array of spears. It is foolish to charge with a cavalry with tall horses in such a narrow passageway,

Sun Longqiu wanted to crack his mouth and smile, but found that even this slight action brought heart-rending pain. Although the cavalry of this group of officers and soldiers was stupid, they were really elite and fierce, so that his subordinates were almost killed and wounded.

Although all kinds of dying wails and the whistling of arrows came from his ears, it didn't mean anything to him anymore. Looking at the approaching figures, suddenly there was a deafening tapping sound from inside the door.

"Kill ......", a group of armored cavalry brandished their sabers, shouted and swept past Sun Longqiu, crossed the piles of corpses, and rushed out of the Ximen City Cave, like a storm, sweeping those graceful figures down and knocking them away, and also tearing and dispersing the shrouded fog and dust and smoke, and rushing out of the city.

Sun Longqiu coughed lightly, watching these solemn and resolute cavalrymen pass by, they were draped in embroidered robes, and they were one of the three family offices under the office, he moved his hands with some excitement, trying to lift the knife, but his extremely weak hands could not complete such a simple action.

But he could no longer suppress the blood gushing out of his mouth, and his body fell on his side like a golden mountain and jade pillar, leaning against the wall of the city gate, and then slowly slid down the wall, slumping to the ground. The eyes full of affection gradually dimmed, and only a hoarse call poured out of his throat: "Your Majesty, see you in the next life."

For me, the leisure and comfortable life before the battle has ushered in a new day.

"It's so enjoyable......"

I greedily embroidered the scent in the air, and couldn't help but stretch. The guards have already set up a copper hot pot,

The chicken and duck rack is a soup, and the fish fillet, chicken slices, squid slices, tenderloin slices, as well as Tiannan's local fish noodles and pho are boiled and tumbling, and the aroma is overflowing, making the mouth water.

A large plate of fried sanghua, kidneys, liver slices and intestine flowers, fried together in fried scallion oil, can be described as crispy and refreshing. Let's take a look at the five-year small roast made of Xiajiang's unique glutinous rice, which can be described as a hard-won enjoyment on this battlefield.

When I came to the life in the army before the battle, I was not so free in the rear, and the so-called entry and exit between the various camps were also strictly controlled, and there was no way to blatantly live privately or anything like Anguan Town.

If you want to continue to contact friendly forces to expand your business, you can only do it secretly.

Fortunately, the caravans from all walks of life, who came with the army, spontaneously gathered into a large market at the rear of the camp, and bought and sold almost everything, showing a certain short-lived and deformed prosperity.

I also sent a group of people there, mainly Qian Shuining and Zheng Zhou. Qian Shuining is mainly responsible for leading the team to promote and promote some of his own products, as well as the special products of the Borneo Hall.

For example, my family's specialty military rations, fried noodles and canned food of all kinds were originally only supplied to the navy and a small number of ships. Now it is time to take the opportunity to promote and distribute these officers and army divisions in disguise in order to open a certain breakthrough.

As the traditional munitions industry of the Southern Dynasties is extremely large-scale, and the interests in it are intertwined, and idlers cannot interfere with it.

Then, according to the Borneo people-based merchant group, they bought some local specialties, mainly jade materials, incense medicines, etc., with high added value and light weight, and loaded them on the river and shipped them to the sea.

In a short period of time, hundreds of people were sold and transshipped out by him, mainly through his own channels, to the agents of the distant border states to do development, including some of the local domains of Borneo

For this reason, Xin Jiaxuan also advised me, this move will hurt the peace of the sky, will damage the character, affect the reputation or something, for this I will advise like a stream, and then turn back to explain to Zheng Zhou, and do it more hidden.

After all, relying on his personal will and moral cleanliness will not be able to change the whole general trend, at least the account that has been traded out by our hands will end better than others.

It is better to be a regulated pioneer than to sell to the Tuwang family of Fanbang as a slave, or to go to the black-hearted mines and mines to see the sun a few times in this life.

That's the best I can. After all, we didn't come to the battlefield to focus on charity that was against everyone.

Because I have the income and sources of the rear, I can also add food to the generals from time to time, or secretly open a small stove by myself to entertain myself or something.

"Enemy Attack ......"

"Enemy Attack ......"

The shouts one after another, one more panicked.

"What the hell......"

I threw down the dishes and chopsticks, ran out of the tent, and stood on a high place, and saw that the direction of the city wall was already billowing with smoke and dust.

"Obviously this is not the direction of attack......"

I muttered to myself,

The camp besieging the city was boiling with boiling water, and it was clear that before the enemy approached, there were already quite a lot of panicked figures, obviously lacking sufficient psychological preparation for the surprise attack in the city.

In other words, the more elite troops have been transferred to other directions to make key breakthroughs, and the troops that remain here are a notch worse in quality and quantity.

As the smoke and dust quickly approached, I really saw what it meant to be a horse and foot joint camp, and those officers and soldiers who were desperately shooting arrows from the camp or gathering to intercept them, almost without a single enemy, were broken and scattered

These raiding cavalry from the city exemplified a certain mastery of horsemanship that had lasted for a long time, and they moved like equestrian dances, carrying their horses over obstacles and through seemingly narrow places, barely enough to cause any obstacles.

Like mountain streams flowing through the earth, rushing and gathering into strands, there is hardly anything to hinder them.

This is the elite iron cavalry, this is the real horse fighting skills, see them accurately throw fire pots, or other incendiary objects, in those tents, like smoked rats, to drive away the hidden officers and soldiers, or block out.

It's a pity that I can't praise it, because the chickens and dogs that have been driven between the camps, and the wolves and rats are all my allies, and they are quite determined, and they are approaching me.

Your sister, a fool can also see that the other party's target is this earthen platform, I shouted loudly.

"Beat the drums, prepare for the ......"

After a few breaths, a heart-rending drum and trumpet sounded behind me, followed by the shouts of the officers

"Spear team, come forward to meet the enemy......"

"The White Soldiers cover the ...... of the wings"

"The shooters take the lead, and the guns are ready to ......"

At this moment, those cavalry had already gone from hundreds of paces ago, and suddenly more than a dozen people fell, but the archery team standing in the front row had begun to exert its might, but unfortunately the experience was a little lacking and the firing was early, only a small half hit the target, and then these cavalry began to dismount, and then drove the cover of the horses, blocking most of the arrows fired again, leaving a pile of horse corpses to quickly press forward.

I couldn't help but curse, I didn't care about the war horse, which meant that we were facing a death army that had been determined by Xia Ding and had no return.

The two archers almost didn't need to be ordered, they ran backwards, and a few of them were a little slower to react, and they were caught up by these enemy troops and cut down and covered, but fortunately their target was the earth platform, and they didn't pay much attention to the fleeing archery team.

Taking advantage of the prelude to the containment and harassment of the shooting team, according to the rules of conduct, the three teams of gunners who were on the earthen platform were divided into two long columns before building a half-man-high bunker, and began to prepare for the enemy.

Almost a little sluggish, or stiff, or trembling, they began to inspect the pressure springs and flint clips, and then went to the erection of the long guns, tore open the medicine tubes, filled the sub-medicines, and tamped the pressure rods......

Although I usually went through repeated training, in the first round of firing, due to the tension of the battle and other reasons, there were still some unevenness, and even some forgot to reload, or did not use wax paper to compact the projectile, and the projectile rolled out first before it was fired when the gun was facing down.

The surging enemies were almost undiminished, and only a few figures in the front row shook and disappeared into the crowd. They roared almost mockingly, and rushed forward even more excitedly.

Under the hoarse reprimands and corrections of the veteran officers who had participated in the attack on Meishan Xingguan and survived, these guns that had already been fired were almost a reflex, or they turned around and retreated to the rear with relief, giving up their positions to those who had already been most loaded in the second team.

The edge of the earthen platform was once again submerged in a faint white smoke, and the enemy still did not shrink significantly, but the figure standing in the front row seemed to have changed somewhat, and there were still people with wounds, bleeding and trotting.

After the third round of volleys, these gunners seemed to find a feeling, although the number of shots was still so large, but the hit rate suddenly increased a lot, at least dozens of bodies, like broken water bags, suddenly spurted blood, or the body shook and covered the wounds, and was pushed down by the people behind them, trampled under their feet.

This was from the camp behind the earthen platform, and the other guns that went around to the two sides, also under the cover of the white soldiers on both flanks, began to fire in long horizontal formations, one after another.

At this time, those enemy troops had already rushed to the edge of the earthen platform

The spear team that was squatting in the trench behind the wood-pointed fence on the slope also suddenly stood up in unison, clenched the long pole with both hands, and suddenly exhaled, stabbing in the direction of the diagonal front, and those who rushed to the front were like sparse waves, like sparse waves, when they encountered a reef full of spikes, and suddenly they were stained red by the bright red color of the spots on the dirt slope.

Even if they have well-protected armor, they will inevitably be injured, or they will be slammed against the spearhead stuck in their homes, and they will lose their support or roll down the dirt slope.

The slight setback of the offensive did not seem to affect their determination, and after a few breaths, I saw dozens of hands that I did not know where they were lifted up in front of me, and rushed up to the earthen platform again, because of the need to cooperate in formation, this time the speed was inevitably much slower, but they succeeded in approaching the rudimentary fence, almost shoulder to shoulder with the spear tips of those stabs, the iron-clad cards and the fine iron spear tips, scraping and making a piercing sound, and then another side could not bear to turn over, or break.

Then some of the cards are pressed against the wooden fence and become tiptoes to leap over. Although many of them are very fast,

The reflexive spearmen were pierced in the air, or their legs and feet were stabbed when they climbed over the fence, and they hung upside down on the wooden tip with their intestines pierced, but there were also those who successfully jumped over the fence and slashed among the spearmen under the cover of their hands and corpses, while others could only drop the spear shaft and try to engage in hand-to-hand combat with their short knives and long daggers.

By this time, the guns on both flanks had already completed several rounds of shooting, and the poorly protected flanks of the enemy army fell layer after layer like peeled onions.

The three condescending guns on the earth platform crossed their heads and fired directly at the rear team that lacked cover, because the close hits increased greatly, and almost every time the gun rang out, the human body broke away and rolled down.

It seems that sensing the crisis on both flanks, these brave enemy soldiers are almost instantaneous.

Quickly divided into two teams, bypassed the earth platform and attacked the two wings, dispersed the persecution of those guns and hurriedly dispersed and retreated, taking advantage of the momentum to chase for a while, but was once again blocked by rows of spear teams.

After all, these people who came out to attack the camp were dead soldiers who were accustomed to fighting, and they almost rushed up with the tip of the spear, and after being pierced and picked up more than ten people, they also dragged and pressed the spear forest, opening a big gap, and the people behind took the opportunity to step on their shoulders and backs, jumped into the spear team and slashed at close range, and suddenly the scene of flesh and blood became tragic.

Then these gunners were surrounded by spearmen, and under the leadership of the officer, almost pinching the hot barrels of their guns, red-eyed began to reload and fire again, and after accidentally wounding the friendly troops, they slightly stifled the enemy soldiers who rushed into the crowd.

At this time, the white soldiers who rushed over under the leadership of the Wind Banner did not meet them head-on, but attacked them from the side along the deep ditch, and immediately scattered these small but quite capable enemy soldiers with a sharp spirit, saving the spear team that was in danger and almost collapsed.

And behind the earthen platform,

"Go back ......"

And I personally led the pacesetter team and another white soldier team to block the group of fleeing Shenji troops on the earthen platform,

"Fleeing from the ...... of death"

"Those who do not strike first in the face of the enemy will die ......"

They roared after me, and immediately took a few steps back in shock as the fleeing crowd fell.

"I am a sergeant of the gods, in the order of the five armies, you dare to ......"

A middle-aged lieutenant almost roared and splashed foam in my face.

Then there was a thud, and I replied with a projectile fired at the door of his head

In the silence and horror, the corpse that had broken open most of the skull, and the barrel of the gun, which had taken up the red and white things, was slowly wiped clean.

Then he muttered in a low voice,

"Spit or something, it's the most annoying......"

Then these deserters, who had lost their souls, were driven back by me, only to find the pale face with the blade in hand, and the few people who had stayed on the position, Guo Duwei, who glared at me with a complicated expression, but did not say anything

By this time, the spear corps that had blocked the enemy had almost been wiped out, and the white corps I had brought with me had almost overpassed the somewhat flustered gunners and fought head-on with the enemy soldiers again

At this barrier, the gunners finally finished preparing for the formation again, and then leaned forward again, and continued to shoot at the rear of the enemy army, to support the white soldiers to some extent.

"Can you turn down the downward cannon......"

I said to Guo Duwei,

"Haven't tried ......"

His face changed and he didn't speak, but someone next to him answered

"Then give it a try......"

I called out the person who was speaking, "You can help......"

And then it seems that the aftermath of my murder is still there, and someone really tried it. The outermost artillery group, under the pressure of the pacesetters, the wooden platoon and the baffle were knocked down, and after an extraordinarily long reloading and plugging, the top of the gun body was lowered diagonally forward, and only the lead could be heard.

There was a deafening bang, the dust was flying, the ground trembled, and the tinnitus was buzzing, and I saw the trail of a black object, which swept directly over the heads of the hard-working white soldiers, and sank into the earth.

Then he saw the large projectile bouncing diagonally in the fragmented fragments, and then crashed headlong into the crowd of people who were shocked by the sound of the cannon, and tore the tall and mighty general in armor and shield, even with the card, and then ploughed a bloody serpentine trail from the crowd of people who were trying to get close to the cover.

Suffering from this blow, the morale and offensive of those attacking the enemy seemed to have been interrupted by a certain key, and they suddenly became stagnant, and even shouted at a loss. Then the reorganized remnants of the shooting team, led by Xin Jiaxuan, also rushed to the right and fired at the enemy troops on the slope, and the spearmen and white soldiers on the left flank also climbed the slope to reinforce them.

At this time, there was also a new change in the rear of the enemy army, Han Liangchen, who was ordered to lead the team to maneuver on the periphery, did not know when he had rushed to the rear of the enemy's flank with the first teaching team, dismounted and lined up, and after two or three rounds of volleyed fire, it became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Because of the multi-horizontal group of rounds of fire, the actual density of firepower is limited, and only a dozen people are actually shot and fall to the ground in each round, but for the enemy troops who feel that the rear is under attack, it is as if they have received continuous fire from the brigade of men and horses, and the last bit of persistence and morale is broken.

It's a pity that my men and horses are also exhausted, and I can only rely on Han Liangchen's not so qualified cavalry to further expand the results. nevertheless

Looking at the white soldiers and spearmen who had learned to rush down the dirt slope, and the guns who had been dragged after them with their guns in their blood, and used the heavy solid wood butts to knock down the fleeing enemy soldiers one after another, I couldn't help but twitch the corners of my mouth, and once again made up my mind that I must get the bayonet out first.

"The heroic jumping camp that raided the west base is over......"

Seeing this contrasting scene, standing on the tower and watching the defenders cheering and shouting, I couldn't help but lose my voice.

"Below the Marquis of Liudu Yu, all the martyrs ......"

In the small court hall of Tiannan Palace, which is known as the Yin'an Palace, there are more than a dozen civil and military warriors in a row, with a beard full of scum, describing the haggard Ning Haigong, who got this reward for the last way, almost crushed the jade cup, and broke it into a small bloody mouth on his face.

"Did they encounter an ambush of the Marquis of Yu or a pro-direct battalion......

He kicked away the maid who had tried to come forward and wipe him with a bandage, and said in a tight voice

"Who can sue sù lonely ......"

There was silence on the left and right, and it took a long time before there was humanity

"The banner of the other party is,,Longzhou regiment left ......"

"Do you want to sue Sù Lone, the daring man who was sent to seize the fortress was frustrated by the training of a foreign feudal regiment......

No one could answer him again this time.
