"You mean the slaughter of the city?" Zheng Zhilong was obviously dissatisfied with Zheng Xing's bad idea, "We are going to defeat the Portuguese and seize the Malacca waterway, as long as they surrender, there is no need to kill them all." ”

"Don't worry, commander, don't slaughter the city, just kill the people who have mastered the technology, once we enter the city, the soldiers will be in chaos, kill a few Portuguese soldiers......"

Zheng Zhilong glared at Zheng Xing, "You guarantee that the '10,000 enemies' will fall at the gate of the city?" ”

"Even if it doesn't fall at the gates, it's nothing to lose to us - we've only lost a few balloons, and judging by the situation in the city, the Portuguese are already like frightened birds, and if they are hit again from the air, not to mention casualties, it will cause them a certain amount of panic." Zheng Xing still wanted to give it a try.

Zheng Zhilong turned his face and thought silently for a while, he still agreed with Zheng Xing's opinion, "In this case, when the Portuguese army is a little slack, when the ugliness is tomorrow night, let the balloon rise into the air, first observe the wind direction and pay attention to the angle." ”

Zheng Zhilong naturally does not have the concept of fluid lì, he cannot accurately calculate the direction of the balloon's flight, however, the balloon soldiers have been flying in the sky for a long time, and they have certain practical experience in the air current, as long as the Portuguese army does not discover it too early, the unmanned balloon may fly to the sky above the city gate to wait for the bullets of the Portuguese soldiers.

Early summer, clear night sky.

Countless stars twinkled in the sky, as if they were spying on the human feat that was about to happen at the city gates, and the second quarter moon collected a lot of the light of the stars, and from a distance, there were diǎndiǎn sparks everywhere, either bright or dark.

Outside the East City Gate, in front of the tent of the Ming army, the number of diǎn sparks slowly rose into the air, because the burning charcoal was covered by a black cloth, the light diǎn was very small, from a little distance, it merged with the stars in the sky, except for drifting with the east wind, no one would care about these few faint light diǎn.

The Ming army outside the city saw that the light was about to approach the city wall, but the defenders at the head of the city still didn't notice it, and not only became anxious.

"Master, what should I do? The balloon is about to float to the gates. The soldiers standing beside Zheng Xing looked extremely anxious, the target of the balloon was the fort at the city gate, and now the angle was very good, once it flew over the city wall, even if the "ten thousand enemies" landed and exploded, there would be no good gain, it was better than nothing.

∑dǐng∑diǎn∑小∑語,.≈.o∨s_(); "Did they heal the scars and forget the pain? This scar, it doesn't seem to be there yet, right? Another soldier grunted.

"What to do? Can I go and inform the Portuguese? Zheng Xing was also anxious, he came up with this idea, Zheng Zhilong ordered him to carry it out, in the early stage, the stars in the sky allowed the balloon to avoid the Portuguese sentry, but the balloon was too well camouflaged, it was close to the city gate, and the Portuguese sentry still did not find it.

But his own words reminded Zheng Xing, "All of them, loud and loud, the louder the better." "Since the Portuguese sentries did not find the balloons of the Ming army, it is better to sue them.

"Teacher's ......"

"There's no time, quick, loud." Zheng Xing didn't have time to explain, so he could only ask the soldiers to execute it immediately.

But it was too far away from the city wall, and the clamor of the Ming army still did not alarm the defenders at the head of the city.

Zheng Xing went out, and the Portuguese army at the head of the city was going to sleep again, and the balloon was about to float over the city wall. ”

"Bang, bang, bang......"

The sound of flintlock pistols finally alarmed the defenders at the head of the city, and even the Portuguese soldiers who were sleeping began to flock to the city. ”

"General, the moving spark, could it be the Ming Army's Kong Ming Lantern?" A soldier found that the sparks that were moving had reached their heads, and he had not seen Kong Ming lanterns at all, only that it might be the secret weapon of the Ming army.

"It's not a star, it's flying ......so low," the supreme commander at the city gate was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he had already received instructions from Manodi, as soon as he spotted the moving Starfire, immediately shot them down with fire# guns, in case they bombarded the barracks again, "concentrate your fire, shoot them down." ”

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Hearing the gunshots coming from the city, Zheng Xing smiled, "Stupid Portuguese, congratulations on winning the lottery!" “

The Portuguese soldiers at the head of the city seemed to be trying to show off their marksmanship, and the bullets of hundreds of soldiers were so dense that they were cobwebs, not to mention a balloon, even a mosquito would be shot down.

The balloon was beaten into a sieve, dragged by the "10,000 enemies", and fell sharply towards the head of the Portuguese soldiers.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

The prize of the Portuguese was the flowering bomb and the "10,000 enemies" detonated by the flowering bomb.

The loud explosion plunged the Portuguese soldiers at the head of the city into fear again, this time with the fear of knowing the consequences.

Sure enough, the tragedy happened again, near the bullet, the soldier cried wolf, either from shrapnel or from the invisible shock wave, and even the supreme commander was torn apart, and a piece of his bloody minced flesh actually splashed on the face of a soldier, and the soldier's face immediately turned bright red.

Several artillery pieces on the head of the city were all hit by the "10,000 enemies" and were damaged by different Cheng dù, if there was time, maybe they could repair it, but the Ming army did not give them time to repair it.

Hearing the explosion at the head of the city, Zheng Xing's naval guns and mountain guns were all transported to a place of a thousand steps outside the east city gate, and taking advantage of the chaos at the head of the city, he wanted to start attacking the city.

When Ma Nuodi heard the news of the attack on the East City Gate, he was still lying in the thin quilt dreaming, and after being stunned for a while, he finally understood that the spark of those days was indeed the secret weapon of Kong Ming Lantern - the Ming army.

When the soldier told him that all the artillery at the head of the city had been destroyed, he immediately understood, "The Ming army is about to attack from the east city gate, quickly, dismantle two guns from each of the other city gates, and quickly transport them to the east city gate." ”

Manodi, who had no time to dream, put on his cloak and immediately ran to the east gate.

The artillery of the Ming army was deployed in place first, which also saved Manodi's life.

The rumbling cannon sounded unscrupulously at the east city gate, without the deterrence of the Portuguese artillery, the artillery of the Ming army started from the head of the city, and gradually extended to the city, ploughing the fields like hundreds of lively Portuguese troops on the head of the city, so that they could not even find the bones.

Ma Nuodi was desperate, the Ming army didn't spend a single soldier, and he suffered ** hundred soldiers last night, I don't know how today's casualties were, in case the city was breached...... He didn't dare to think about it anymore, but as the governor of Portugal, he still ran towards the east gate.

"Your Excellency Governor, you can't go to the East City Gate, there are flowering bullets of the Ming army everywhere." The herald's words made Manodi fall into the abyss, and he was cold, as if he had just been dug out of an iceberg in the North Pole.

"Blossom bombs?" Manodi muttered, he vaguely felt that this Malacca city would not be able to be defended sooner or later, "What about the other city gates?" What actions did the Ming army take? ”

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Ming troops at the other gates did not attack the city, but their camp was brightly lit and seemed to be ready......"

"What the hell is the Ming army going to do?" Manodi, like an ordinary soldier, was already in great fear, the other Ming troops outside the city gate were ready, his hope of breaking out of the city had been disappointed, even if he broke out of the city, what could he do? They had lost all their ships and could not return from the sea, and after breaking through, they were still chased and beaten by the Ming army.

The artillery of the Ming army did not stop for a moment, and these flowering shells seemed to fall on Manodi's heart, which made him startled, "What should I do?" You can't just let the Ming army shell it, right? ”

The Portuguese wounded soldiers were constantly snatched out of the vicinity of the East City Gate by their companions, although they were temporarily away from the artillery fire of the Ming army, but they still screamed endlessly, these screams were more worrying than the flowering bombs, if they died under the flowering bombs of the Ming army, it might be a kind of happiness.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the East City Gate can't be guarded, and the Ming Army's flowering bombs are too terrifying."

"Horror?" Manodi didn't know how the soldier could use the word, "What the hell is the situation?" ”

"The artillery fire of the Ming army continued to extend, and the brothers couldn't withdraw if they wanted to......"

"The East Gate has been lost?" Manodi didn't believe it anyway, the Ming army had entered the city so quickly.

"That's not true, the Ming army just used artillery to fire flowering shells, and there is no siege yet," the herald was already a little out of breath, "but the Ming army will attack the city sooner or later, and the city gate is difficult to resist the Ming army's flowering shells." ”

Just as Manodi was hesitating, another herald rushed over, "Lord Governor, it's not good, the city gate has been broken by the Ming army. ”

"Huh?" Manodi was shocked, "Aren't the gates made of iron? ”

"The flowering bombs of the Ming army are too powerful......"

"Has the Ming army begun to attack the city?"

"Not yet, maybe the Ming army wants to blow up the city wall, anyway, the flowering bombs fell in the city like rain, and I don't know how the Ming army had so many flowering bombs......"

In Manodi's ears, there was the sound of flowering bombs exploding, and he didn't need to ask to know that the artillery of the Ming army did not stop, "What is this Ming army going to do?" No, I will go to the East City Gate in person, and don't let the Ming army enter the city. ”

"Your Excellency Governor, now within 500 steps of the East City Gate, there are all Ming army's flowering bullets, and there is no way to command them at all, and the soldiers have been scattered by the Ming army's flowering bullets, and they can't gather at all."

Listening to the Ming army's bursts of flowering bombs, Manodi was completely desperate, now the east city gate can't command at all, depending on the situation, who goes and who dies, once the Ming army enters the city, it will be even more impossible to stop, flesh and blood, how can you stop the Ming army's flowering bombs? The ammunition depot of Portugal was bombed, ammunition was tight, and even the flintlock guns of the Ming army might not be able to deal with it.

A glimmer of light began to appear in the east, indicating that the weather was still so sunny that it would have been another sunny day without the Ming attack, but in the light of the blossoming fire, the stars seemed to lose their light, only occasionally blinking, as if to mock him, the last governor of Malacca.

Manodi has no master, and in front of the flowering bullets of the Ming army, he can only turn a deaf ear now, and numbness is the best weapon.

"It would be nice if there was a rain, maybe only the rain could extinguish the flowering bombs of the Ming army." Ma Nuodi muttered silently, losing the will and courage to fight fiercely with the Ming army, but his heart calmed down.
