Chapter 66: The Bitter Battle (II)

"Lao Tzu is Chen Youliang, holding Jinwu Chen Youliang" The arrogant laughter continued to drill out in the gap between the explosions, tenacious as a weed in spring.

"Crazy..."Taishi Zou Pusheng spat bloody spit and staggered off the road.

"Lao Tzu is Chen Youliang, Chen Youliang, as an official, you must be Jinwu, and if you have a son, you should be Chen Youliang..." The pale face is full of unruliness.

He is Chen Youliang, Jinwu General Chen Youliang. Back then, Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty, started with this position and walked step by step to the glory of life.

To be an official is to be a ruling Jinwu, and to marry a wife is to marry Yin Lihua. Although Chen is from a humble background, Chen's ambition is no less than that of the heroes and heroes of ancient times. (Note 1)

"Crazy..."Zhang Hongsheng, a thousand households of the Imperial Forest Army, poked out half of his head from the doorway and gritted his teeth. If it were normal times, when he heard these shouts, he would definitely rush up and ask Chen Youliang what he should be guilty of. But now, he just wanted to stand up, stand with that madman, and die together.

"His grandmother's, Lao Tzu has been down for eight lifetimes..."Zhang Dingbian scolded, while swinging the steel knife left and right, trying to push the sparkling medicine arrow away from the city, and at the same time using his body to firmly protect Chen Youliang behind his back.

"Don't worry about the head, just go to a crowded place..."The commander Zhang Bixian also lit the grenade, and while throwing it at the head of the enemy, he loudly reminded the surrounding robes to follow up. One life for one life, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that Tartar is not afraid of death..."

His arm strength is extraordinarily large, and with his condescending superiority, almost every grenade can be thrown thirty paces away, and when it falls in the midst of the enemy army, it is a ghost crying wolf.

Seeing that the three most powerful men all stood up and took the lead in counterattacking at the risk of being killed by ten thousand arrows, the other soldiers became more and more reluctant to die, and smashed the grenades that lit the fuse like hailstones, wave after wave towards the outside of the city.

"Boom boom..."Boom boom...""Boom boom..."Boom boom..."Boom boom..."The explosions came one after another, and the officers and soldiers of Meng Yuan, who were bending their bows and arrows outside the city, did not expect that there were really people in this world who were not afraid of death, and hundreds of them were blown over in an instant, and the broken flesh and limbs were splashed in all directions.

The archers, who had not been affected by the explosion, immediately slowed down and retreated away from the walls. Before they could stabilize their position, more thunder thundered, dragging the scarlet flames into the air.

"Boom, boom, boom..."In the gray twilight, the fire burst from the thunder explosion was particularly gorgeous.

Countless Mengyuan archers were sent into the sky, and countless soldiers of the Ni family screamed and ran away.

However, more Meng Yuan officers and soldiers rushed forward, cut down those who fled in panic, and then continued to raise their strong bows and crossbows. Poisoned feathered arrows and ignited gunpowder arrows were sent to the castle in waves.

Another row of black feathered arrows fell at different angles, behind the shield wall.

Two shield bearers were wounded in the back of their necks, and more feathered arrows and gunpowder arrows entered through their exposed gaps, cutting down several grenadiers in leather armor like wheat cutters.

"Go up, go up, Iron Guard, go to the front..."The centurion raised his shield and walked forward under the rain of arrows. The shining armor-piercing cone smashed into his lower abdomen and thighs, clanging and clanging.

"Whoosh...", a gunpowder arrow flew along the scarlet trail, and the commander Ou Puxiang stepped forward and slapped it with his sword. The gunpowder arrow swirled in mid-air, flew backwards, and exploded with a bang.

Iron sand and highly poisonous things mixed with gunpowder flew one after another, falling towards the head of the Ni family army who was erecting a ladder under the city wall, frightening the other party to hold his head and run away.

"Go up, Ironguard, go to the front. The armor-piercing cone can't break the Huai'an armor. Just pay attention to the rocket..."Yu Guang quickly summed up his experience and shared his experience with the brothers around him with all his strength.

"Armor-piercing cone, Tartar's armor-piercing cone doesn't work, it doesn't work..."Not far away, someone chimed in loudly, his tone full of incredible surprise.

The plate armor purchased from Huai'an has unparalleled protection in the world, and it can block most of the feather arrows from twenty paces away. This is news that has been widely circulated for a long time. But having heard about it and seeing it with your own eyes are not the same after all. When they found that the arrows smeared with poison could not help Huai'an armor at all, the morale of the ironclad guards was greatly boosted. Quickly disperse along the walls, replacing the unarmored ones at the front of the line, and using their bodies and shields to build a second line of defense for the robes.

Taishi Zou Pusheng led a group of Imperial Forest Army to run up along the horse path, in groups of two, and put down baskets of grenades. These grenades are all made by the craftsmen of the Tianwan Empire, and their power is slightly inferior to that of the grenades sold by the Huai'an Army. But the advantage is that the cost is low, and it can be supplied in open quantities, so there is no need to worry about the problem of running out of stock.

Chen Youliang and the others turned their heads and grabbed the grenade, lit the fuse with moxa, and threw them out of the city one by one. The speed is far more than the four-pound cannon.

Meng Yuan's soldiers, who were bending their bows and arrows, were knocked down by a row and had to retreat in a panic. Soon, however, a new wave of soldiers poured under the walls, pouring a new round of death rain on the city.

"Boom..."A four-pound cannon that was pushed less than fifty paces away from the city suddenly became powerful. A solid cast iron projectile was sent to the city with a roar.

"Smack..."The shield that was hit by the projectile was torn apart. The iron bullet did not fade, and by inertia it slammed into the shield bearer's chest again. The Huai'an plate armor with excellent performance was smashed inward into a deep pit. The shield-bearer didn't even have time to snort before he was pushed backwards by the projectile, blood and shattered internal organs spurting out of his gaping mouth.

"Boom..."Another four-pound cannon was pushed forward and opened fire on the city. The black projectile swept over the heads of Chen Youliang and the others, smashing the enemy building behind them into pieces.

"Kill it, kill it quickly..."Someone shouted behind Chen Youliang, but he couldn't think of any countermeasures. The sudden "civil strife" in the city had killed most of the gunners. The artillery placed at the head of the city was either blown up by the rebels or left unmanned, and did not work at all.

"Bed crossbow, there's a bed crossbow over there..."Taishi Zou Pusheng jumped his horns and shouted, and the steel knife pointed at an ancient weapon on the horse's face to defend the city.

A small group of Royal Forest Sergeants, shields held alof, quickly ran towards the bed crossbows on the horses' faces. This ancient weapon was extremely powerful, but it was born at the wrong time, and after the six-pound cannon and the four-pound cannon appeared, it was declared obsolete before it was put into use.

The Mengyuan soldiers outside the city quickly discovered the moving target on the city, adjusted the direction, and arrows rained down.

Before they could get close to their target, more than half of the Imperial Guards soldiers who tried to operate the bed crossbow had already been killed. But the remaining four people still rushed with shields and crossbows.

"Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Boom..."Someone risked death in the enemy building and opened fire, attracting the attention of most of the archers with a four-pound cannon.

"Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Boom...""Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Boom...""Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Boom..."Gunpowder arrows and cannonballs were fired alternately into the enemy tower from under the city, and exploded one after another, blowing the enemy tower to the ground.

"Protect their backs, Iron Guards, protect their backs for me..."Chen Youliang commanded loudly with red eyes.

Six heavily armored warriors stood in a diagonal line along the walls, using their bodies and huge shields to block most of the arrows flying towards the Guards.

"Boom..."A solid bullet flew in, sending one of the ironclad guards into the sky along with the shield in his hand, and shattered in all directions.

The remaining five ironclad guards gathered their formation, plugged the gap left by the deceased, and continued to protect the back of the robe.

Four Imperial Forest soldiers took advantage of the opportunity of their robes to exchange their lives for their lives and approached the bed crossbow. Someone quickly hung a dozen grenades on the crossbow rod, and another lit the fuse with mugwort.

Countless feathered arrows flew and shot both of them into hedgehogs.

The remaining two warriors raised their shields and protected their robes. The other one, however, threw himself on the ballista with his body, and pressed the angle of the giant crossbow down as hard as he could, and pressed down...

The shield-raising warrior used his own foot, instead of a firing hammer, to kick the trigger.

Huge bolts flew into the air, carrying the warriors who were crushed on the ballista out of the city.

More than a dozen grenades, together with crossbow rods, flew more than three feet away and landed on the gun carriage.

"Boom...", red light shone brightly, and black smoke and dust swayed up.

The Yuan troops within two zhang of the explosion site fell to the ground as if they had been cut by a huge sickle.

Farther away, the archers screamed and retreated like a tidal wave.

"Blow the horn... Continue to transfer people to the city..."Chen Youliang spat out the dark red blood, gritted his teeth and gave an order.

"No one, third brother, it's really no one... Those who dare to come up, all come up..."Zhang Dingbian was angry and reminded in a dumb voice.

"If you want to blow it, you can blow it, I don't believe it, there are only a few men in the Tianwan Empire..." Chen Youliang couldn't listen to his advice at all, and continued to repeat loudly.

"Woo woo, woo woo, woo woo, woo woo" The agitated horn sounded, and the indomitable will was quickly spread throughout the city.

Several of the firecrackers who were squatting at the base of the city wall were stunned and looked up hesitantly. Immediately, a shout came out of his mouth, and he staggered towards the road.

Several grenadiers set the mugwort together on the houses that had been destroyed by the shells and set them on fire. Then he strode after the crowd.

Several gunners climbed out of the collapsed enemy building, closed the eyes of their seniors, and straightened the four-pound and six-pound guns from the pool of blood.

Zhang Hongsheng, a thousand households of the Imperial Forest Army, took the remnants of six, seven, or eight hundred soldiers who had just been gathered out of the streets and alleys, and rushed along the horse road to the head of the city.

The new shieldbearer stepped over the corpse of his predecessor and erected the last line of defense above his robe.

The new Boss pulls out the fired and unfired guns from the stack, shoves the guns behind his back, leans out of the city, aims at the enemy, and ignites the fuse.

"Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Boom..."The guns and guns fired like thunder.

"Woo woo, woo woo, woo woo, woo woo" The horn sound is like a dragon's groan, piercing the clouds and cracking stones.
