When the enemies see each other, they are very red!

The general Li Zicheng glared at the only remaining eye, and shouted to Zhu Youzhen at the head of the city in shock and anger: "You, you... Aren't you the fake Maoshan Taoist?! ”

And Zhu Youzhen was also unceremonious. As soon as he thought that in history, he was forced to a dead end by this one-eyed dragon little by little, and finally hanged himself from the coal mountain, he was angry, and said with a cruel smile: "Open your dog eyes and take a closer look, this king is Zhu Youzhen, the king of Qin in the Ming Dynasty!" Last time, I pretended to be a Taoist priest and played with you, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid, you believe in such a thing! I can also tell you that it was this king who fought against you in Fuping and Tongchuan a few days ago! How about it, do you have the guts to attack the city? ”

"I'm stealing your mother'!!" When Li Zicheng heard this, his lungs were about to explode!

Since the flag rebellion, he has also experienced a lot of winds and waves. But in Ruicheng County, he lost a look, and the whole process was extremely funny, which made this "general" a laughing stock among the thieves and lost face. The beautiful concubine Xing even thought that his one-eyed appearance was ugly and scary, so Gao Jie had a chance. At this time, new hatred and old hatred came to his mind together, and Li Zicheng, who was usually calm, finally lost his mind, and roared wildly: "Give me a siege of the city and break this guy's body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

At the sound of an order, the cavalry rushing into the camp rushed towards the outer city wall of Qinwangzhuang like a tide.

In fact, the forwards of Liu Zongmin and Hao Shaoqi, as well as the Chinese army led by Li Zicheng, are the most elite cavalry in the camp, good at field warfare, and it is a little inappropriate to use it to attack the city. In the past, Li Zicheng would have let Li Guo and Tian Jianxiu's infantry attack the city. But today he was furious, and secondly, he felt that there were not too many enemy troops at the head of the city, and there were no red-coated cannons or Francophone cannons, so he couldn't wait for the large army to arrive, and directly let the cavalry charge.

Of course, it was impossible to storm the city on horseback, and the thieves only rushed to the bank of the outer moat about fifty paces from the city wall, and had to dismount and change to infantry. Fortunately, when the villages and towns in Jingyang County were sweeping, Li Zicheng deliberately asked the soldiers to collect dozens of wooden ladders, and this moat was not too wide, only about one zhang, and the ladder was just enough to pass.

Zhu Youzhen saw a large number of thieves rushing across the outer moat in a chaotic manner, and sneered: "Good coming!" Bird-handed, shoot! ”

With this order, the muzzles of dozens of black holes stretched out from the battlements at the head of the city. The drooping arquebus in front of the muzzle had been ignited, and sparkling sparks crept towards the chamber.

"Bang! Bang bang! Suddenly, there was a loud gunshot, and the dozen or so thieves who were the first to rush through the outer moat were immediately shot, screaming and falling to the ground.

This is also the purpose of Zhu Youzhen's establishment of an outer moat. The river was not meant to keep the enemy out, and if it were, it could have been dug wider. On the contrary, the river was deliberately crossed by enemy troops!

Of course, due to the obstruction of the river, the speed of the enemy's crossing of the river will be slowed down. On the other side of the river, it happens to be the best range for birds. The river bank is a natural ruler, and the enemy army crossing the river is like a fixed target, and the bird gunner can go on a killing spree!

Of course, Li Zicheng's camp, as a leader among the thieves, still has a certain combat effectiveness. Liu Zongmin, the commander of the forward battalion, personally supervised the battle, and he was not intimidated by this volley of bird guns, but shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, rush over while the birds are loading!" ”

The thieves also knew that their position was extremely dangerous, and the closer they rushed to the wall, the safer they would be, because the bird guns at the head of the city also had a shooting blind spot. As long as they stick to the city wall, they are not afraid of bird shots, so they continue to charge without fear of death.

In the meantime, the birds at the head of the city fired another volley, knocking down nearly twenty thieves. And the thieves also gathered one or two hundred men, and fired arrows at the head of the city with short bows. Although it was extremely disadvantageous to attack from the bottom of the city, the Qin soldiers at the head of the city suffered almost no damage because of the protection of the battlements, but the speed of firing the bird guns was indeed affected to a certain extent. Under the cover of a rain of arrows, hundreds of thieves soon passed through the open area between the outer moat and the city walls to the banks of the inner moat.

But when they arrived, the thieves were dumbfounded. It turned out that the inner moat was much wider than the outer moat, three zhang wide, and the murky river water below it could not be seen how deep. The ladders that were scavenged from the people's homes were only two zhang long at most, and they could not reach the other side at all.

But they all rushed here, this is called chasing ducks to the shelves, and you have to get by if you can't get by! Liu Heizi, one of Liu Zongmin's subordinates, shouted: "Go over!" ”

Li Zicheng's camp can be regarded as the strictest military discipline among all the thieves. Especially when fighting, you must obey the general's orders, otherwise you will not be spared. This Liu Heizi was the highest-ranking general near the moat, and the thieves could only obey his orders, jumping into the river one after another and swimming to the opposite bank.

However, Shaanxi has been short of water since ancient times, and most of the thieves are landlubbers, and there are very few who can really drain water. At this time, he plunged into the water at the same time like a dumpling, and when he couldn't reach the bottom, he immediately panicked. Some people opened their big mouths, drank a few sips of water, and immediately dizzy, slowly sinking to the bottom of the river. And the surrounding thieves had to guard against the bird's gun shooting overhead, so they were still too busy to take care of themselves, and they didn't have the heart to take care of their companions. However, dozens of thieves drowned in the river!

Fortunately, the river was only more than three zhang wide, and the rest of the hundreds of thieves stared at each other, and finally grabbed the opposite bank and jumped up. After a few more steps, the walls were attached, and the thieves finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Heizi saw that most of the thieves had crossed the river, and he was in high spirits and said: "Set up a ladder and climb up from the shortest part of the city wall!" ”

It turned out that before the attack was launched, Liu Zongmin found that although the city wall was built magnificently as a whole, there was a city wall about three zhang wide that was obviously unfinished, only one zhang high, which was in stark contrast to how high three zhang was in other places. Of course, the thieves will not take advantage of such a big flaw, so they came to this "short board" from the beginning.

But as soon as they gathered under the city wall, and were about to climb up, a row of more than ten bird guns suddenly stretched out from above, and suddenly shot at the crowd. Because the distance is too close, and the formation of the thieves is too dense, the bird gunners don't need to aim at all, and they can hit people wherever they want. After a series of explosions, more than a dozen thieves fell in a pool of blood.

"Rush up! Don't give them time to reload! Yes!! Liu Heizi just shouted half a sentence, and suddenly screamed in horror!

It turned out that the more than ten bird guns had already pointed at the thieves in an instant, and let out a terrifying roar!
