Chapter 25: The Hour of Danger

Huang Xiancheng's eyes were not good, and he didn't see those two things clearly, but he had been in the border town for so many years, so he naturally knew what it meant to be a "thunderbolt and a thunderbolt artillery".

The "Thunderbolt Artillery" can be used to defend cities, and is even better at sieges, and the cannonballs are powerful enough to blow up city gates and collapse city walls. Now there are more than 3,000 Tartar soldiers under the city, as long as they blow open the city gate, the chicken song post will definitely not be able to defend it, but I don't know where the Tartars got this kind of cannon.

The Tatar general Bodarmo, who had attacked the three passes of Erliban, Wulipu and Jimingyi, led his troops to break through Erlibanyi, and was burning and looting in the city.

He also knew that the Jimingyi was much more difficult to fight than Erli and a half, so he led more than 1,000 people to advance to the Jimingyi with the "Thunderbolt Artillery" captured from the Erli and a half post, and had just arrived at this time, and heard that the besieging soldiers had been killed and wounded more than 1,000 people, so he immediately ordered the army to retreat and use artillery to bombard the county.

Rao is Jiang Bin is brave, at this moment he also knew that the general trend had gone, he threw the two bladed sabers to the ground, and said to Huang Xiancheng: "Lord Huang, abandon the city!" ”

Huang Qiyin's face was gray, and the long beard under his chin trembled: "Abandon the city? You and I have the responsibility to defend the land, if we abandon the city and flee, how can we explain to the saints? Huang would rather live and die with the city! ”

Jiang Bin's eyes flashed, and he roared angrily to the county officials: "As soon as the city gate is broken, the Jiming Station will inevitably be lost, do you want to bury your surname in vain?" When the interruption continues, it will be chaotic! He turned around and shouted to the soldier, "Is Lord Min awake?" I'm going to report to Lord Min about the military situation! ”

The soldier trembled and said: "Lord Min has a high fever and has not yet woken up", Jiang Bin listened to his teeth and gritted loudly, like a trapped beast in the hall, a group of officials looked at each other, and some of them already showed a look of horror, but no one dared to say the word abandon the city first.

Yang Ling didn't know what was going on, in his mind, he couldn't defend and retreat, why bother with the gains and losses of a city and a place, just accumulate strength and make a comeback. But they didn't know that the word "integrity" was much more important to the ancients than their surname, so what they sometimes did seemed stupid in modern times, but it was normal at the time.

He stepped forward and said to Huang Xiancheng: "My lord, since you know the ending, why don't you retreat as soon as possible while the Tartars have not yet captured the city, although the baggage materials are too late to take away, but it is important to keep everyone's surname, stay in the green mountains, are you afraid that there will be no firewood?" ”

Huang Xiancheng didn't want to scold him loudly, he just waved his hand weakly, and sighed: "Everyone in the Tartars is a healthy horseman, and they can't escape from abandoning the city at this time." Continue to defend the city, and you can still kill a few more Tartars."

Yang Ling hurriedly said: "In this case, we will continue to stay here to delay time, send a few adults to organize the people to quickly escape from the north gate, and flee to the mountains immediately after leaving the city, no matter how powerful the Tartar cavalry is, they may not be able to chase and kill the people all over the mountains, besides, these Tartars have not yet been able to take away my Daming country, but they are just pretending to be robbers to loot, and they will inevitably loot the people's property when they enter the city, and they can also delay their trip." ”

Huang Xiancheng's eyes lit up, and he said: "Yes, the old man is confused", he immediately said to the king and the squires who had not had time to leave: "Wang master, you and Ma Yicheng, the lieutenant chiefs, and the chief of the security department organized the people to withdraw from the north gate, and immediately dispersed up the mountain when they left the city!" ”

The king said, "My lord, what about you? ”

Huang Xiancheng gritted his teeth and said: "Although the old man is a scholar, he can't kill the enemy with a sword, but he must live and die with the soldiers defending the city!" Jiang Bin knew that he was going to die in the city, and he might not have the intention of monitoring and supervising the war, and when he heard this, he gritted his teeth and turned around and smiled at the disabled soldiers of less than 100 people: "Okay, Lao Tzu's more than 100 catties are stacked here, kill one more and earn one, give me each back to their original positions, swear not to retreat, and those who dare to retreat without permission will be killed!" ”

Huang Xiancheng glanced at Yang Ling and said, "Virtuous nephew, you take Master Min and withdraw from the city too."

On the one hand, Yang Ling admired the spirit of the old master Huang, and on the other hand, he thought that even if he escaped with his surname, he was not much, so it was better to stay here, although there was no talk of compensating the families of the martyrs at this time, but if he died here, how could the Lord of Min County and the Lord of the King not take care of the young mother? ”

Thinking of this, he immediately said with great righteousness: "No, I will also stay here, and guard the city with Huang Lao and the soldiers", the king received a task of evacuating the villagers, and his heart was really a lot easier, at this time, when he saw Yang Ling's behavior, he was immediately ashamed, and the kind of scholar business was angry, and immediately said: "Eat the king, you can't worry about the king, the old man is ashamed, it's really in vain to read the sage book." Master Yang, please leave with the adults, and I will stay too."

Yang Ling also pointed out that he would take care of Han Youniang in the future, how could he be willing to let him die, and hurriedly said to him deeply: "The king is responsible for the safety of the people and the net worth and surname of Lord Min, and the responsibility is heavy, how can you sacrifice lightly?" Take Master Min away, it's too late. It's just that the little nephew has something to entrust, and the clumsy young lady hopes that the adults will take care of it in the future! ”。

Wang Zhushu was moved to tears, and when he saw that he was a little nephew, he said: "In this case, the virtuous nephew can rest assured, but teach the old man to have a breath of air, and he will never live up to the trust." After that, he immediately called someone upstairs to carry Master Min down.

Ma Yicheng has already had cowardice, he is just a post, and he has just come here to have no feelings for Jimingyi, he wished to take his son and daughter immediately and fled immediately, seeing this, he hurriedly stood at the door and commanded a group of squires and elders to leave immediately, preparing to evacuate the people out of the city.

Yang Ling hurried to the entrance of the building, called Han Youniang and said, "Young lady, the city can no longer be defended, you immediately follow the king's master book to escort Lord Min out of the city and escape up the mountain."

Han Youniang hurriedly said: "Xianggong, what about you?" ”

"I'll take the first step, and I'll go later", Yang Ling casually prevaricated.

Han Youniang looked at him suspiciously and said, "No, I'll accompany you, I'll wait for you to go with me if I want to go."

Yang Ling was in a hurry and shouted, "Why are you so confused? If you don't listen to your husband's words, do you want me to divorce you now? ”

The more he urged, the more Han Youniang expected that he was determined to die in the city, but he didn't know that his greatness was all because of the selfishness of love, the little girl was originally surnamed fierce, and she had never committed a stubborn surname only in front of him, and at this time, she couldn't care about any "three obedience and four virtues", and her neck protested: "The concubine has never committed seven examples, why should the princess divorce me?" ”

"You!" Yang Ling was angry and waved his hand to fight, Han Youniang stood there and closed her eyes, not dodging at all, Yang Ling raised her hand, seeing her immature face, how could this slap continue?

At this moment, only two loud noises of "boom, boom" were heard, and Jiang Bin shouted: "The Tartars have fired!" Yang Ling didn't think about it, he hugged Han Youniang, threw her to the ground, and pressed her on top of her.

I heard a loud noise, the dust was flying, a corner of the building was hit, the whole building collapsed a little half, the masonry and tiles kept falling, the gentry officials in the house were hit by the flying masonry, and they were more or less injured, and most of the wounded soldiers who were lying in the corner of the wall were buried alive in the rubble.

In fact, not only the stupid geese in the house, but even the soldiers outside did not know the truth that lying on the ground could avoid explosion damage to the greatest extent. It seems familiar to us now, and we almost thought that we were born with such a simple thing, but in fact, I don't know how many generations of exploration were discovered.

Han Youniang was thrown to the ground by him, and pressed on herself, she was a little confused, she didn't understand what kind of family method was newly invented by her husband, and the explosion sounded before she realized that he was afraid that he had been injured, she hurriedly drilled up from Yang Ling's body, and saw a large pile of rubble smashed beside Yang Ling, and half of the window lattice was pressed on her body, so frightened that she hurriedly moved the window open, and asked nervously: "Xianggong, have you been injured?" ”

At this moment, a gentry who had already run to the side of the steps of the city stood up from under the wall and shouted: "Save people, Ma Yicheng is buried below", at the same time, Jiang Bin, who was lying on the head of the city, suddenly let out a burst of haha laughter: "His grandmother's, fried well, fried well, hahahaha."

Is Jiang always crazy? The grizzled Huang Xiancheng and the others all glared at him angrily, only to see that Jiang Jiang was shirtless, and he was still laughing wildly under the city.

Everyone looked down at the city, only to see the two "thunderbolt artillery" in the Tartar army, one cannon flew more than two feet away from the place, the gun carriage was facing upward, smashed into the crowd, and one was killed and wounded. The other cannon had only one barrel left lying in a large black pit, and the wheel of one gun carriage was still swaying forward in the snow, and it was only after a while that it fell to the ground crookedly.

Everyone was surprised, I didn't know what was going on, but I heard Jiang Jiang laugh wildly: "The Tartar won't use our cannon, it's not fixed with an iron bolt, one cannon cannons are bouncing, and the other cannon is filled with too much fire, it's fucking blown up, hahaha."

ps: When I got home at night, I saw everyone's votes, and suddenly my courage doubled, and I was inspired, and I guess I had no problem ^_^ guarding the chicken post alone, so please continue to support me.

Another: Writing about Ma Li'er is a feminist movement? I've never thought about it, so it's still called us men to live? Writing that paragraph is just a foreshadowing for her later behavior, please don't misunderstand.
