"Put!" The commander of the Ming army roared angrily, "Boom! "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" The artillery of the Ming army is also struggling to launch a counterattack, and the barrels of these guns have been obviously red after several days of continuous overload, but there is no time for them to rest at this moment, even if they know that it is dangerous, but the Ming army is still operating them to give the most powerful blow to the enemy.
"Quick! The pit over there was quickly filled with sandbags! The back ones are made up with cement! Fast! "At the head of the city, the commanders of the Ming army commanded in an orderly manner, constantly repairing the loopholes caused by the artillery.
"Whew!" "Whew!" "Whew!" Accompanied by the artillery there are also the enemy's huge trebuchets, under the cover of artillery, the enemy's trebuchets have also entered the firing range, a piece of boulder like a meteor shower has been used towards Jinzhou City, a piece of boulder flew into Jinzhou City without any scruples, with bursts of dust and mist, accompanied by a huge shock and the screams of the injured Ming army and the wail of broken houses, on the wall of Jinzhou City, although the Ming army tried to throw a variety of city defense machinery, but under the suppression of the enemy's bows and muskets, It still caused a large number of enemy troops to rush towards the city like ants with the help of cloud ladders, and the head of Jinzhou City was in danger.
"Let the soldiers not poke their heads out. Use the cover of the battlements to throw grenades at will! Man Gui commanded, "The rest of you come with me!" As he spoke, he drew his sword and quickly struck at the side of the wall, because the enemy had already poked out his head there, and it was obvious that the defense was no longer able to effectively resist the enemy's attack.
"Kill!" The Ming soldiers roared and killed the past, just when those Tartar soldiers happily climbed the city wall and prepared to show their might, a touch of spatula light and sword shadow quickly slid by, and then splashed a beautiful blood splash in the air, under the brave resistance and cover of the Ming soldiers, a large pot of fire oil poured down from the gap, accompanied by bursts of screams and wails, the danger was slowly lifted.
Wiping a handful of blood on his face, Man Gui said: "Let the soldiers hold on to it and change the guard at night!" β
"Full of soldiers! It's been four days! The army of this imperial court has not yet come, and it will continue like this! Jinzhou City is in danger! Zhang Cunren said.
"The reinforcements who want to come to the imperial court have arrived! However, I suspect that they have already occupied Matsuyama, and if Matsuyama is not broken, the road will not be passed! Man Gui shook his head, and then said: "I didn't expect that these cunning yellow hairs can still have heavy artillery, under the protection of those bunkers, it is difficult for our artillery to cause damage to them, if you don't get rid of them, it's really dangerous!" β
"The last general wishes another death squad! Blow up their artillery positions! Zhang Cunren said.
"There's yellow hair, and there's tartars! Are you sure? Man Gui looked at Zhang Cunren solemnly.
"I am willing to fight for my life!" Zhang Cunren continued.
"No! No unnecessary sacrifices can be made! Man Gui shook his head, and then asked, "The five hundred horsemen who came to train in Jingying are still there, right?" β
Zhang Cunren was stunned for a moment, then nodded, Man Gui nodded, and then said: "We have eight hundred horsemen, let them rest and recuperate, and gather on time tonight!" β
"General Man, what are you?" Zhang Cunren was taken aback, "You don't want to take such a little people out and do it alone with them, right?" Even if it's a sneak attack, this is not enough! β
Man Gui waved his hand and continued: "Go!" Bring out all the useless trebuchets in the library and carry them to the city wall tonight! β
"Full of soldiers! What's the use of this? Zhang Cunren was stunned, with artillery, these outdated things have long been still in the library.
"Isn't there a lot of thunderbolts and poisonous fireballs in Curry? Prick a few of them, light them, and throw them into their positions! Let all the cavalry put on grenades, gunpowder, and fire oil on their backs, and we will burn them at night! You see, the wind is just right tonight! Man Gui pointed to the fluttering flags.
Zhang Cunren was taken aback after hearing this, then looked up, nodded, and then gave a thumbs up and said, "It's still a great soldier!" Then he muttered for a while and said, "General Man, the last general has another proposal!" β
"Oh?! You said! "Man Gui said.
Zhang Cunren pointed to the mountain of corpses outside the city and said, "Since we used the thunderbolt poison fireball, then we will burn those Tartars and the yellow-haired corpses together, and the smell is estimated to be enough for them to choke!" β
Man Gui couldn't help frowning after hearing this, and there was some contention in his heart, although those were all enemies, but the dead were the greatest, he always felt that it was not appropriate to do this, Zhang Cunren saw that Man Gui was hesitant, and continued: "Man Zongbing! For the sake of Daming! β
"Good! You go and prepare something! "Man Gui said.
"The last general commands! Watch the last general at night! Zhang Cunren said a little excitedly, and then left quickly.
Man Gui turned his head to look at the guards beside him and said, "Go and call Zhang Chun!" β
"Yes! Full Soldiers! The soldier took the order and left.
"The last general will see the general army!" Soon, Zhang Chun, who was commanding at the head of the city, was inexplicably called in front of Man Gui.
"I won't say much nonsense! From now on, you will be in charge of the defense of Jinzhou City, and I will watch from the sidelines! "Man Gui said.
"Full of soldiers! This...... Zhang Chun was stunned, what kind of thing is this?
"If you want to do it, you will do it! Let's go! After speaking, Man Gui patted the stunned Zhang Chun and walked to the command platform, the defenders of the Ming army could not miss him as the backbone, Jinzhou City today, it is still the screams of artillery and soldiers as the main theme.
The dark and dreary night, as if the boundless thick ink was heavily smeared on the sky, there was not even the glimmer of the stars, and occasionally a worm chirped, breaking through the silence of the river night, and then falling into boundless silence. After a day of bloody battles, the city of Jinzhou fell silent, at this time the land of Jinzhou was full of scattered siege equipment, mutilated weapons and all kinds of stumps and broken arms, crimson blood slowly flowed, converging into streams, flowing towards the endless darkness, flowingγγγγγγ
After a day of bloody fighting, the Ming army was tired, the enemy army was tired, in addition to strict defense, most of the soldiers fell asleep, at this time, the wind blew and blew, although with bursts of blood, but also for the tired soldiers to bring bursts of coolness, so that they slept more comfortably.
Looking up at the night sky, Zhang Chun looked at Man Gui at the city gate again, Man Gui nodded, and then Zhang Chun ordered the city gate to open, under the careful operation of the Ming soldiers, the city gate of Jinzhou City slowly opened a crack, and then the cavalry of the Ming army slowly came out under the leadership of Man Gui, at this time, all the soldiers were dressed in black, and then, under the order of Man Gui, 1,300 cavalry quickly charged towards the enemy's position, looking at the cavalry that was surging quickly like a tide, Zhang Chun estimated that after a distance, waved the order flag in his hand and said, "Let's go!" β
For a time, more than 20 trebuchets fired thunderbolt poison fireballs at the same time, and the thunderbolt poison fireballs rushed into the night sky, and the fiery red balls were particularly conspicuous in the black night sky, and then they were like meteorites, quickly smashing down towards their targets.
