Chapter 64: The Bitter Battle (I)

Zhang Dingbian's first reaction was that Taishi Zou Pusheng wanted to cooperate with the anti-thief Ni Wenjun, raised the steel knife, and slashed at the latter's head.

Taishi Ni Wenjun hid sideways behind the pillar with agility that was not commensurate with his usual appearance, and while fleeing for his life by detour, he loudly defended himself, "It's not me, it's not me... This matter has nothing to do with me. Hurry up, there aren't many of them, hurry up and find a way to get rid of them. lest the enemy take advantage of the opportunity to attack the city..."

The second half of the sentence can be regarded as saving his life. Chen Youliang, who was already red-eyed and ready to chop him into meat sauce with Zhang Dingbian, immediately gave up the interception of him. Picked up a shield with one hand, and climbed out of the enemy building with his saber held high, "Kill me, kill all these guys who eat inside and out..."

"Kill... Kill them all..."Wang Pu, a soldier of a thousand households, with more than a hundred guards, rushed out of the enemy building following Chen Youliang's figure. When I saw the person wearing the color of the Royal Forest uniform, I couldn't help but say, and I chopped my head.

Some of the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who were overwhelmed by the sudden change were confused. More innocents let out a scream and drew their sabers, desperately defending themselves.

"Chen Youliang is reversed, Chen Youliang is reversed..."Someone fished in troubled waters and shouted loudly.

"It's Zou Pusheng, Zou Pusheng led the Imperial Forest Army to collude with foreign thieves..."Countless people responded with their voices pulled.

The chaos quickly spread in the north and south directions along the enemy tower and the horse's face, and some of the Chen soldiers who had recovered from the sudden blow drew their weapons one after another and pounced on the royal forest army closest to them. so that the latter, whether they participated in the murder and arson or not, had to stand up to the fight,

The two sides fought on the narrow walls, and hatred was written in each other's eyes. No one has time to distinguish between right and wrong, let alone the enemies who are getting closer and closer outside the city.

"If you don't want to rebel, put down your weapons and retreat down the horse road..."At the critical moment, it was Taishi Zou Pusheng who took the lead in discovering the problem, holding high the iron horn commonly used by Chen Youliang, standing at the window of the enemy building and reminding loudly, "I am Zou Pusheng, I did not rebel... Someone pretended to be the Imperial Guards and blew up the artillery... Don't be fooled, guys. General Chen, keep people under the knife. Brethren of the Royal Guards, lay down your weapons and retreat down the horse path..."

"If you don't want to rebel, retreat quickly. General Chen, some people pretend to be the Imperial Forest Army, and some people pretend to be the Royal Forest Army..."Zhang Dingbian also woke up like a dream, and rushed to the second floor of the enemy building with his cronies, condescendingly, shouting.

The Imperial Guards on the city wall were originally forced to protect themselves, and when they heard the shouts from the enemy tower, they immediately sensed that something was wrong. They turned around, or ran down the horse path, or fled for their lives along the city walls to the north and south. Soon, there were only two or three people left to stay and continue to work hard with Chen Youliang.

I saw two or three hundred rebels, each with a white cloth wrapped in their arms, under the command of a high-nosed and deep-eyed cannibal, fighting and retreating, and every time they passed a section of the city wall, they must try to set fire to several nearby gunpowder chests. Even if your own people are affected, you will not hesitate to do it.

Chen Youliang and the others who chased after them and slashed them were stopped again and again by the explosion of gunpowder. It was slow to clean up the rebels. It wasn't until Zhang Bixian led hundreds of other elites to bypass the back of the rebels and behead the big cannibal that the battle barely ended.

"Damn the lustful man, the white-eyed wolf that can't be raised..."Chen Youliang was exhausted, holding a steel knife in his hand, panting like an ox.

Standing where he was, he looked at the scene. The bodies of the innocent hacked to death of the big gunmen and the soldiers of the Imperial Guards were next to the corpses, and the blood flowed profusely.

However, the enemy did not give him a chance to boost his morale at all, and with the sound of an explosive war drum, the Ni soldiers hiding behind the shield cart suddenly accelerated forward, and in three steps and two steps, they once again rushed into the effective range of the big gun.

"Ah.........h The other hand quickly set up a figure-eight ladder and dragged it steadily.

The soldiers of the Ni family, who followed closely behind him, quickly bent down and poked the mugwort that had been prepared long ago at the lead. A string of scarlet sparks jumped into the pipe, and dozens of lead bullets the size of broad beans shot out, sending sparks flying from the city.

The near-suicidal bravery of the two inspired more Ni family soldiers. In the blink of an eye, dozens of people rushed out of the protective range of the shield with a wild scream, and before they could organize an effective counterattack at the head of the city, they set up their big guns and ignited the fuse.

"Bah...""Bah...""Bah...""Bah...""Bah...""Bah...", the smoke was filled, and countless lead bullets smashed into the city like hailstones, hitting the defenders all over the body with bullet holes. At the same time, more soldiers of the Ni family rushed forward and quickly erected more guns.

"Brothers, fight back, fight back, press them down..."At the head of the city, Zhang Bixian's eyes were so anxious that his eyes were on fire, and he urged loudly.

His brothers were indeed fighting back, but they had just experienced a sneak attack, and they could no longer maintain the layered triad formation that they had before. According to their own judgment, they can only rush to the nearest arrow stack and scramble to spray projectiles at the enemy.

"Woo Woo T But in the missing range of the rain of bullets, there were countless large guns of the same specification, which continued to shoot towards the city. The defending side was also beaten to the ground of heavy casualties and misery.

"Ah.........h The chest was densely covered with bullet holes, and the blood was pouring out. The other big guns around him began to stiffen, and the hurried projectiles either didn't fall into the range of their targets, or were noticeably out of step with the other big guns around him. As a result, there are more and more "safety points" outside the city, and the rain of bullets shooting at the head of the city is becoming more and more dense.

After all, they were all elites who had followed Ni Wenjun to fight for many years, and the rebels outside the city quickly seized the opportunity. Many more rushed forward at the risk of being blasted into a sieve, or bent their guns on the ground with iron shelves and tilted projectiles towards the city. Or use moxa to set fire to the previously abandoned guns and make them work again. For a time, on the city wall, on both sides of the arrow battlements, and even in the enemy tower, there were countless projectiles flying in all directions, and all those who were hit by the projectiles were bleeding like an infusion, and the heavy ones were desperate on the spot, and the next investigation was miserable.

"Splash, splash, what are you eating..."Chen Youliang also hit his head, although he was blocked by the fine iron helmet, but the huge kinetic energy remaining in the lead still made him dizzy. Condescending and being beaten like this, if "

"There are many of them, and they are all fierce and not afraid of death..."Zhang Bixian carried a blood-stained shield, rushed to Chen Youliang, and reported loudly, "The surname Ni has revealed all his family background this time, and it is his own soldiers who take the lead in the attack. Our side was caught off guard by the inner ghost just now, and we can't even supply gunpowder."

His voice was immediately swallowed up by a series of explosions. "Boom... Rumble... Boom...""Boom... Rumble... Boom..."Hundreds of fires flickered at the top of the city, and the smoke from the burning of gunpowder obscured the sky.

It's not a bore... Although the big guns built by the Tianwan Empire are not as sophisticated as the arquebuses of the Huai'an Army, they will not start to explode in batches after only a few rounds. It was outside the city, and outside the city, Ni Wenjun frantically used a new killing move. Countless fist-sized projectiles were thrown up with a magic spell.

"Lord be careful..."The lookout post standing on the top floor of the enemy tower rushed down in time and shouted a warning to Chen Youliang, "The Mongols, the Mongols have also come up." They, they tied gunpowder packets to the shafts of arrows ...

As soon as the words fell, several sharp arrows dragging the red star slammed onto the city wall. "Snap" nailed to the beam of the enemy building behind Chen Youliang, trembling slightly.

Immediately after, the gunpowder bag tied to the tip of the shaft exploded, scattering the fine iron sand like a plague.

"Ding Ding Dong ..."Although he was pressed down by the two pro-soldiers who sacrificed their lives, Chen Youliang still heard the sound of rain hitting plantains. It was the sound of iron sand striking his helmet, far less powerful than buckshot, but more subtle. It made him feel as if his head had been hit by countless drumsticks, and it could explode into a blood gourd at any moment. Suddenly, he opened his mouth, "Wow...", all the things he had eaten in the morning and at noon spurted out of his throat.

"Raise the shield, raise the shield, go down and get the shield..."Zhang Bixian's voice echoed repeatedly above his head. Immediately, there was another "clanging" sound. Some of them came from the iron sand that flew from all directions, and some of them came from carved feather arrows, which made Zhang Bixian and others have to squat to protect themselves, and they can't organize an effective counterattack for a long time.

When the knocking sound outside gradually stopped, Chen Youliang pushed away his own soldiers and got up from the mess. The two loyal soldiers did not die on the spot, but their arms, necks, calves, and other places that were not protected by armor were blown black and purple by the iron sand, which was miserable. Scarlet blood flowed from several arrow wounds, and the embers of gunpowder mixed together and trickled down the boots. Every inch of movement is accompanied by a huge puddle of blood underneath.

"General, general...", the two pro-soldiers seemed to have lost their sense of pain, grinned, and both gave Chen Youliang a sincere smile, "It's okay, it's okay, the gunpowder arrows of the Tartar are useless." It's all, it's all some skin trauma. ”

"Lord, lord be careful, don't get too close to the battlement. This gang, these bastards are simply shooting indiscriminately, covering one, covering one counts as one, and the arrows are also smeared"

As they spoke, their voices slowly lowered. The body that barely half-knelt down was soft and sloppy, and in the blink of an eye, it was like a gossamer...

"Zhang Dingbian, Zhang Dingbian!" Chen Youliang was angry and painful in his heart, picked up a shield and held it in his hand, and shouted at his own robe nearby, "Zhang Dingbian, go and mobilize the grenadiers, and the grenadiers come up to deal with them." I don't believe it."

"The grenadiers can't come up, and the big gunners can't come up. Tartar, Tartar is really playing this time..."Zhang Dingbian, who is known as the first brave general in the world, stumbled forward and reported hoarsely, "Archers, countless archers." The brethren were so crushed that they could not show their heads at all..."
