Chapter 150: Vietnam (10) -- Miserable
"Open the gates! Open the gates! Under the city walls, the cries of the soldiers were continuous. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This Kyoto army is the old team that followed Nguyen Van Hue to fight the country. In Vietnam, it can be regarded as a division of tigers and wolves. Letting them keep Kyoto safe is also out of trust. But now, this tiger wolf division does not have a bit of tiger wolf spirit. It looks like a sick cat.
Actually, it's no wonder that they do! Who let the opponent open the plug-in Da Ming? Although it was a mercenary, it was not as good as the regular troops of the Ming Dynasty. However, in Vietnam, which is dominated by cold weapons, it still has the strength to crush the Kyoto army.
After all, muskets and cannons are one era worse than iron and stick broadswords.
Ruan Guangzan looked at the city wall, his body was weak, and he almost couldn't stand steadily. This is the Kyoto Army he is most proud of and trusts! It was so completely defeated! All of them are grizzled and dirty, like those who ask for food.
Li Zhong, the chief secretary of the city, also has a concern. When he shot arrows at the top of the mountain before, he hadn't seen how powerful Ruan Yi was. Later, the other party launched the cannon, and he didn't take it seriously. Because the cannons of this era had a relatively short range and low intensity. So he thought that the other party was at most using it to scare and scare people.
But I didn't think that the cannon was coming, it was really terrifying! Not only did it shoot high, but it also landed on their heads with extraordinary precision. Then it exploded, and it was extremely ferocious. If he hadn't been clever, he would have rolled down the hill the moment the shell landed.
Otherwise, it would have exploded into a ball of meat and puree!
However, his luck to survive is a great shame in Ruan Guangzan's eyes. This failure made his heart full of hope fall into the valley and made him feel unprecedented disappointment. It was as if a lightning bolt struck him in the chest, scorching him on the outside and tender on the inside, and wounding him completely.
Even for a moment, I couldn't believe it was true!
Fortunately, Chen Wenji next to him is not stupid! Hurry up and let the guards open the door and let the Kyoto army in.
I saw a frightened soldier rushing in as if he had escaped life. As soon as they fled inside, they fell to the ground in groups. With his mouth wide open, he kept kicking. It looks like I'm tired enough.
It was really the Ming cannonballs that were too fierce and scared their courage. Therefore, one by one, they run faster than rabbits. From the sea to Hue City, it is 8 thousand meters to say the least. This non-stop running is really physically demanding.
So some of the soldiers who fled in completely relaxed. But suddenly, I foamed at the mouth and convulsed and convulsed, as if I had a seizure. This caused the onlookers to be frightened and retreat again and again.
In their eyes, this is a demonic disease. But in fact, it's just exhaustion.
It is a pity that at a time when superstition and belief are prevalent, these sick soldiers are not only unable to receive medical treatment. He was also wiped on his neck one by one and lost his life.
And in front of the city gate, there were still many routs rushing forward. The chaos made the atmosphere in the city more and more tense. At this moment, a torrent suddenly surged on the official road in the distance. It was mercenaries in green uniforms, gathered together like fast-spreading algae. The naked and exposed official road is dyed green at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty on the city wall all had white faces.
Especially in that torrent, the fluttering five-star red flag. So that the people present couldn't take their eyes off. Although the Xishan Dynasty, like the Qing Dynasty, implemented a policy of seclusion and seclusion. But that doesn't mean they don't know anything about the outside world. What's more, when it is so close to Nanyang, how can they not know the news of Daming at all.
Isn't Ruan Yi in the south so strong with the help of the Ming Dynasty?
So seeing this iconic five-star red flag, everyone instantly understood that it was Da Ming who came! Da Ming is here! No wonder there were steel giants coming from the sea, no wonder the cannon was so fierce, it was difficult to change the defeat of the Kyoto army so completely.
The five-star red flag, which is getting closer and closer, has solved all mysteries.
Ruan Guangzan's expression couldn't help but become in a trance, and he muttered to himself, "What should I do?" What to do? As he spoke, he burst into tears. At the end of this catastrophe, he finally showed the timidity of his peers.
Chen Wenji immediately hugged Ruan Guangzan and comforted him with a good voice. For some reason, he suddenly felt a chill in his body. At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, I felt an unusually cold chill. It was as if a bucket of ice water had suddenly poured down from the top of his head, drenching him with a chill.
Not only him, but also Ruan Wenming and others around him also looked defeated. After all, who doesn't know the prestige of the Ming Dynasty? With the fierce artillery fire just now, it is unknown whether Kyoto can be saved.
And Ruan Wenbao looked at the faces of these mortal enemies, and his heart was already happy. Secretly shouted, "Kill them!" Kill them! ”。
Li Zhong, who was guarding in front of the city gate, saw that the Ming army was getting closer and closer, and immediately ordered: "Close the city gate, close the city gate quickly!" ”。 Although his body had not yet recovered his breath, under the intimidation and intimidation of Daming, he still stood up and gave an urgent order.
Then I heard a creak, and the city gate creaked dullly, like a scrapped sprinkler truck. Some of the soldiers who had not yet come in were immediately anxious. One by one, they scrambled inward. In order to get in first, some people pushed down their companions who were in front of them. Then step on the body of his companion and make a big leap forward.
For a time, hundreds of people were injured and trampled in front of the city gate. And as the gates closed, the stampede became more severe.
Because many corpses and soldiers were in front of the bronze gate. As a result, the gates closed very slowly. And the shrinking space also makes more and more soldiers blocked in the middle of the door. In the end, it all came together. Like dumplings, densely packed, so that the city gate can no longer get closer.
Listen to the passage, all kinds of cries such as insults, scolding, crying, howling, and begging for mercy are intertwined. So that many soldiers in the city couldn't bear to listen.
In order to prevent the Ming army from entering, Li Zhong gave the order to attack these crazy soldiers.
Whizz, swish, swish, and arrows galloped. With such a dense flow of people, people were constantly stabbed through the body and filled with arrows.
After a while, there were many dead and wounded in front of the door. The soldiers, who were still alive, immediately retreated far away. Those who walk slowly are reduced to a wisp of dead souls.
Now, the gates of the city were closed without the slightest hindrance!
With a bang, the two bronze doors were stitched together. Many of the soldiers who had retreated came up again. He banged on the gates, crying and letting them in. Someone recognized Ruan Guangzan at the head of the city, and even knelt down and begged for a way out.
This situation made the soldiers in the city can't help but be moved. After all, they are all soldiers, and if they were replaced, they would be in the same situation now.
Li Zhong understood that keeping these soldiers would lower morale. Then he ordered his bow again to be raised, and the arrow was aimed at the soldier who was kneeling on the ground. Seeing the ruthlessness of their compatriots, the soldiers were forced to retreat.
Even many people scolded loudly. They knew that the gates would never be opened again. So they all pointed at Ruan Guangzan unscrupulously and scolded. Anything unpleasant can be said. There are also hot-headed soldiers, pulling and pee towards the hundred officials on the city wall.
In the case of being driven crazy, these people vented the anger in their hearts without reservation.
It wasn't until another rain of arrows came down that the soldiers relented a little.
When the Javanese regiment arrived, the soldiers willingly knelt on the ground, vying to be prisoners.
It made Lehi think that these people were sent spies!
