Chapter 16: A Rain of Beads

The Mongolian Tatars under the city had never seen the power of the 10,000-strong enemy, and when they saw Ziren leading their troops to retreat, they wanted to take the opportunity to enter the city, but they were unprepared and swept to the ground in groups by the sharp weapons that flew into the sky after the explosion of the 10,000-strong enemy.

A tartar with iron armor had his throat slit open by a flying weapon. After falling to the ground, he covered his wound in pain, but it was still to no avail, and he was drowned alive by his own blood as the blood poured into his lungs. However, compared to other Tartars, he is still considered 'lucky'.

Many unarmored tartars were shot into their bodies by the splatters of iron nails and thistles, and they screamed in pain. One of the tartars was shot into the eye socket by a flying spike, wailed and fell off his horse, trampled to pulp by the wounded and struggling horses.

In an instant, the previously ambitious Mongol cavalry did not have the joy they had when they first saw the collapse of the city wall, and all that was left in their minds was pain and fear.

The explosion of 10,000 enemies, the scattered roar of sharp weapons and the screams of the Mongols like ghosts and wolves were intertwined, and the resounding in the sky plunged people's ears into unprecedented confusion, accompanied by wisps of black and red smoke along the city wall and straight into the sky.

Hundreds of corpses of Tartars fell under the city in this way, and the blood suddenly stained the ground outside the city, and the soil gradually became muddy after absorbing the blood. The Mongolian Tatars couldn't help but tremble when they saw the tragic situation of their companions, and they didn't wait for the order of the big brains to turn around and flee directly.

Although Ziren couldn't see the results of the battle of 10,000 enemies after the rattan brand, he knew that the Tartars had suffered a lot by listening to the screams in his ears. I secretly thought that with this group of dog tartars as 'fertilizer', by this autumn, the land around Pingyu Fort would definitely have a good harvest.

"Well fried!" After hearing the Tartar ghost crying wolf, Sun Shoujing laughed loudly, came to Ziren's side, and said with bright eyes: "Ziren, what did you add to the clay pot, the power is so great, transfer some to my brother later." ā€

Jin Guan, who had broken into the catastrophe, also came over at this time, and said with a hippie smile: "Yes Ziren, don't forget me if you have such things." As a result, after being glared at by Ziren and Sun Shoujing, he flashed to the side knowing that he was wrong.

The head of the commander outside the city is big, and he thought that the Ming people must be vulnerable after the city wall collapsed. Unexpectedly, so many men and horses were lost, but they were never able to attack the city, and the Ming people became more and more brave the more they fought.

"This bunch of waste, what's the use of raising you!" Brainy and furious, after swinging his sword and cutting down several of his subordinates who had fled back, he began to gather the guards and prepare to lead the siege himself.

"Aha and slow!" Seeing this, Gong Tu immediately stepped forward and grabbed the reins of his brother, and when he saw that his brain was still unwilling, he persuaded with good words: "This gap is only ten steps long, and now that the reinforcements of the Ming army have arrived, plus the help of vicious firearms, if you gather heavy troops to attack at this time, I am afraid it will only cost the lives of the warriors in vain." ā€

At this time, the brain hair was big and thought for a moment with his eyebrows, and said angrily: "Gong Tu, then what do you say is a good way?"

Seeing his brother's question, Gong Tu said confidently: "Why don't we send a small number of men and horses to continue to attack the gap to attract the attention of the Ming army, and at the same time order the archers to stand on the mound of earth that has been built and put arrows to suppress the city, and take this opportunity to divide troops to attack the city from both sides of the gap." ā€

"Good! Just as you say. Brainhair replied in a loud voice.

But he didn't know that a thousand commanders with a pinch of mustache behind him flashed a fierce light in his eyes, but this gaze was fleeting, and the big brain hair and the generals around him did not notice it.

At this time, a white-looking soldier in the city saw that the Tartars were gone and returned to kill, and forgot to hide his figure. As soon as he lit a 10,000-strong enemy and raised it above his head, before he could throw it, suddenly a sharp arrow was shot from under the city, and with a "bang", the 10,000-strong enemy in his hand was shattered.

The scattered gunpowder was instantly ignited by the fire rope, and the flames burned most of the soldier's hair and eyebrows, and the face door was also scratched by the broken pottery shard, and the face was ruined. Fortunately, after the clay pot was broken, it was impossible to gather fire, otherwise the sharp weapons would fly and the surrounding soldiers would suffer.

Seeing that the Mongolian Tartars deliberately released arrows to counterbalance, Ding Shoutie and others couldn't help but slow down the speed of throwing 10,000 enemies for safety. In addition, the rockets gradually ran out, and the firepower on the city was greatly weakened for a while.

Looking through the smoke that gradually dissipated, a group of Mongolian cavalry in thick armor took advantage of this opportunity to rush to the gap. The Mongol soldiers were skillfully coordinated, with the front row of Tartars raising their skin shields, and the back row of Tartars beginning to stretch their bows and arrows, assuming an offensive posture.

Seeing that Tartar was going and returning, Ziren felt his right eyelid jump, and he was just about to lead his troops forward to meet the battle, but he was pulled by Sun Shoujing, and he saw the corners of his mouth raised, and said with a smile: "Come on, push the cannon." ā€

When the words landed, I saw several soldiers with big shoulders and round waists pushing over two artillery carts, and there was also a "Lianzhu cannon" composed of dozens of bamboo cannons on each car.

This cannon is made by Shenyang Wei, although the range is not far, and each barrel is only thicker than the three-eyed gun. However, the firepower is amazing, and it is better to use it to block the enemy forces that hit the gap. Sun Shoujing had brought people to push this cannon before, and it was only a moment later than Ziren

Seeing that the Tartars were approaching quickly, Sun Shoujing said loudly: "The shield man is on guard, the gunner is on guard, prepare to ignite!" ā€

"Prepare ......, stabilize ......!"

"Fire!"

The Mongol Tartars released their bowstrings almost at the same moment, and flying arrows and ejected projectiles staggered through the air. The speed of the bullet was much faster than that of the arrow, and the sound of "servant" hitting the target was heard for a while.

The arrows of the Mongol Tartars also hit at this time, and although there was a shield cover, one of the gunners was shot in the heart. Sun Shoujing is not as thick as Ziren, everyone in the battalion is wearing armor, and the mandarin duck jacket worn by the gunner is not very protective, and he fell to the ground on his back after being hit by an arrow, and kept spitting out blood and foaming blood from his mouth, and he couldn't be saved.

However, compared to the results achieved, this casualty is acceptable.

The Mongol cavalry, which was still menacing just now, was instantly crushed under the bombardment of a dense rainstorm. Riders and horses fell to the ground, and the tartars who had fallen here earlier blocked the road to the breach.

Sun Shoujing nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, Feng Wensheng, who was defending in the southern city, also led his troops to arrive, and at the same time carried the grinding discs piled up on the inside of the south gate. Just as he was about to build a stone wall in the gap to block the enemy, he heard Ziren shout: "Not good! ā€

"Tartar, this is going to turn the tiger away from the mountain!" In the incomprehensible eyes of everyone, Ziren anxiously explained that he didn't care about asking for the opinions of a few people, and directly ordered: "Third Brother Sun quickly led his troops to defend the city on the right wing of the gap, Jinguan, your kid is on guard at the gap, his life is hard, although the guard officer will go to the left wing......" Before he could assign a task to Feng Wensheng, there were bursts of shouts and killings on the left and right wings of the city. (To be continued.) )
