Chapter 410: Temptation

Fan Wencheng stared at the gun position where the cannon was fired, and couldn't help praying in his heart, the cannon could fire a few more shots, and he couldn't see anything on his face, and the night sè, the flickering firelight, covered up a lot of things.

There was another sound of cannons firing, and the city wall on the west side of Zhenjiang Fort was splashed with bricks and stones, and the city wall had collapsed for a long time.

Fan Wencheng kept pinching his fingers to hide the fear in his heart, although the artillery siege was very beautiful at this time, but Fan Wencheng was quite afraid in his heart. After pondering for a long time, he turned to Huang Taiji and said: "Great Khan, according to the minion, it is better to try to attack the city, and now, it has collapsed more than a hundred steps, and there is a wide enough place." ”

Huang Taiji was quite happy, and said: "Okay, according to the Xiantai, there are more than 100 steps, it is enough, all the departments according to the previous arrangement, start attacking the city, remember, it is still the old rule, one into armor, the others are clothed, if you can make a breath of the best, the first to attack the city wall Ben Khan to give him the flag, the noise everywhere is still non-stop, sharing Mao Wenlong's heart." Huang Taiji looked at Zhenjiang Fort, which he couldn't get close to before, and now had a big hole in his face, and his face was quite happy, although he also knew in his heart that Zhenjiang Fort was by no means so easy to capture, but he also had some hope, after all, now it was such a wide opening.

……

The horn of "Woo ......" began to sound throughout the battlefield.

The torches outside Zhenjiang Fort suddenly became more numerous, and the figures became clearer.

Zhang Heng has been squatting on the top of the second layer of the city wall, heard the horn of the Tartars, and also knew that the Tartars were going to make a move, I am afraid that the Tartars will attack the city immediately, and the tense nerves will settle down a little, and the siege will be over, and the artillery will definitely stop, this kind of feeling of being beaten all the time is not comfortable. Turning his head to see, just a little better mood, and sink a lot, the first city wall has collapsed, the terrain of the second city wall is higher than the first, so it was mistakenly hit by the cannons of the Tartars, there have been a few loosening, the battlements of the city wall have been broken a few, and many people have injured a lot of people, many people are holding on to the bleeding places and trying their best to endure the silence, and some are re-stacking the bricks and stones that have been blasted away, although they cannot resist the cannons, but the arrows used to block the Tartars are enough.

……

"Ermao, are you afraid?" The old man saw that Ermao's face beside him was filled with a light of "happiness" and asked.

"Don't be afraid, don't you just light a grenade and throw it out? I've been here for a long time, and I'm ready to collect the Tartars' heads when I'm done throwing them away. Ermao replied easily.

"This time it's not like before, this time, our city wall has collapsed for a long time, let's just go to fill in that section of the city wall, hehe, there is a ** can go back, Ermao, are you really not afraid?" This veteran is also a veteran of the army, what he hears, what he sees, and what he recognizes is much clearer than Ermao, a new ding, although he knows what he will do, but he seems very calm, and he is not afraid, and he will even joke with Ermao.

"It's okay, aren't you just going to kill the Tartars? I've been practicing my skills for a long time, and I haven't had the opportunity to play one-on-one with the Tartars, this time, I want to try real kung fu and see if the kung fu is practiced in vain...... "Ermao replied indifferently.

As the two were talking, the hundred households of this team shouted: "Brothers, let's get live, let's go to the remnant wall in the west, which is specifically responsible for blocking the Tartars rushing in from the gap, and we don't have to worry about the rest, let's go, brothers, follow me to kill the Tartars......" After speaking, the leader ran towards the ruined city wall, and Ermao and the old pawn immediately stopped talking and followed.

The drums of war in the sky constantly bombarded the hearts of the soldiers on both sides of the war.

Ermao gasped, just now, followed their hundred households to this section of the city wall, this section of the city wall, in the north of the collapsed city wall, Ermao leaned against the city wall, panting, resting.

"You, you, you, all of you, come here, and bring up some big stones, and block this step, so that the tartars will not come up." Baihu checked the terrain and immediately shouted.

Ermao sounded as if he was calling himself, and immediately ran down and began to move stones to the city wall, this step is usually used to climb the city and transport goods, but now because the city wall on the side has collapsed, this step is no longer needed, it has become a shortcut to the city wall of the tartar, so it must be blocked.

Ermao then faint firelight, began to sigh to the top to concentrate on moving stones, since he became a soldier, he has learned one thing, that is, obedience, attentive obedience, absolute obedience, the instructor's whip let him remember the word "obedience", so, Ermao did this seriously, as for the shouts of the Tartars outside the city, he seemed to hear, and he didn't seem to hear it, just concentrated on moving stones to it. ,

Zhang Baihu leaned against the city wall, observed the situation outside with a periscope, looked at it for a while, and couldn't see it clearly at all, but the voice was getting clearer and clearer, and the shouts of the Tartars attacking the city, the footsteps, could roughly distinguish what the position was. Zhang Baihu shouted: "Who is down there, who else?" Don't come up yet, the Tartars are coming, don't die, come up, the Tartars are coming, don't lù head, this time, not only the front of the lù head, but also the back of the lù, the city wall is open, just lie on your stomach, remember" Zhang Baihu shouted loudly, the footsteps of the Tartars attacking the city were already clearly audible, Zhang Baihu suddenly remembered something, and shouted loudly.

Ermao is bending down to pick up a few broken city bricks, hearing hundreds of households shouting on it, immediately pick up these city bricks, one foot higher, one foot lower to move up, to block this stone steps, you must need a lot of bricks, stones, otherwise, can't be blocked, the Tartar is easy to go up along this stone steps.

Ermao blocked the city bricks and stones on the stone steps, which was more satisfying.

"Grenade ready ......"

In the dark, hearing the commander's order, Ermao took out a grenade without hesitation and unscrewed the lid.

The screams of the Tartars are already close at hand, and you can even smell the peculiar smell of the Tartars.

"Target, wall gap, throw ......"

Ermao didn't hesitate to light the grenade and threw it, lit the first one, and then lit the second.

Dense explosions immediately sounded on the broken openings of the city wall, the bricks were blown up by grenades and flew everywhere, and the Tartars climbed and collapsed the city wall, and they were suffocated, and the momentum was immediately much smaller, and no one could not be afraid of this overwhelming fire.

Immediately afterwards, under the city wall of Zhenjiang Fort, there was a thunderous and lightning explosion, which made this noisy battlefield, the battlefield of shouting, and the battlefield of drums shaking the sky instantly become quiet.

"Okay, blow up well" Zhang Heng lay on the second city wall, by the light of the grenade, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but shout Okay, this grenade guarding the city is really a sharp weapon, especially when dealing with a lot of people, it is simply invincible, what ants were attached to the siege of the city before, there were many people bullying people and few people, here, it no longer works.

……

Huang Taiji looked at the golden soldiers who poured into the ruined city wall from a distance, his teeth clenched, hoping for a miracle, but unfortunately, the dense firelight and dense thunder told him that this was unrealistic.

"Come on, give an order, let the ministries step up their clamoring, and create opportunities for the western section......" Huang Taiji clenched his palms and ordered unwillingly.

"Chirp"

……

Ermao lay on the edge of the broken wall, his face was full of smiles, snorting and panting, while the old soldier who was on the same team as him smiled: "I say, the Tartar is capable of this, and if a grenade goes down, there will be nothing,...... It's a pity that you are not allowed to throw hooks today, otherwise, I don't know how many heads I can catch...... "Ermao looked sorry.

"Ermao, don't think about the Tartar's head, tonight, it's a great credit to keep it, if you don't keep it, Zhenjiang Fort will be gone, what do you want those heads for?" The old pawn laughed.

"That is, if Zhenjiang Fort is not defended, then those heads that were caught before will be useless......" Ermao thought for a while, and felt that what the old man said was right.

"Look, although we have grenades, but grenades are not omnipotent tonight, Ermao, you have to be careful...... my eyelids are always ......jumping" The more the old man said the back, the quieter his voice became, and finally it was so small that there was only a little sound, completely hidden in the earth-shattering war drums and shouts.

"Grenade Preparation...... The enemy was already within reach, and Hyakhe could estimate where the enemy had arrived without looking, and immediately shouted loudly.

Ermao didn't have time to think about the old man's words, so he immediately unscrewed the grenade lid.

……

"Boom...... Boom ......, boom ......" There was a burst of thunder and flint in the sky, and the whole battlefield was quiet again, and those loud shouts and those earth-shattering war drums looked weak and pale in the face of this explosion.

Huang Taiji pinched the clairvoyant mirror, looked at the situation of the siege, and gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Command, drum......"

"Chirp"

The drums of war sounded again. It made the soldiers on the battlefield even more crazy.

"Grenade Preparation ......"

Baihu looked at the crowd below at the head of the city, and he was also moved, just went to a batch, and came again, although it was not dense, but it was also like a net scattered over, by the light of the fire, looking at the Tartars who were shouting and running to the city wall, Zhang Baihu also felt a chill in his heart. ,

"Boom ......, boom ......, boom ......" Thunder and fire broke out again outside the collapsed city wall on the west side of Zhenjiang Fort and the remnants of the walls on both sides of the city wall.

The waves of the siege were like slapping on the solid shore rocks, only splashing a few waves, and then disappeared in a blink of an eye, retreated, and the rest were only war drums, shouts, and from time to time explosions and gunfire could be heard from a distance.

Huang Taiji was also beating the drum in his heart, and the grenades of Zhenjiang Fort seemed to be batch after batch, endless.

"Order, and then urge the drum ......," Huang Taiji gritted his teeth and ordered.

"Chirp"

……

Zhang Baihu listened to the war drums that were higher than a while, and seemed to think of something in his heart, but in the blink of an eye, the torches in the sky, the shouts in his ears, the guns, and the sound of war drums were covered up.

Seeing that the figures outside were coming towards Zhenjiang Fort again, Zhang Baihu said without hesitation: "Grenade ready ......"

……

There was another roar of thunder and ploughing, and the waves that slapped against the shore rocks retreated again. Some of those who had not been blown up in the middle of the remnant wall retreated after seeing the thunder.

"Okay" Zhang Heng was on the second city wall, looking at the first city wall almost perfect to block the enemy, he couldn't help but shout hello, these successive sieges, the Tartars are afraid that they have left a lot of people here.

Like Zhang Heng, the soldiers lying on the second city wall also relaxed, and the original tension was also swept away, and the Tartar cannon stopped firing, just relying on this person, wanting to attack was simply wishful thinking.

"My lord, the Tartars are just this ability, look, those brothers below are afraid that they will have to catch a lot of heads today......" A soldier said enviously, their second city wall, there is nothing to do at all.

"No, the commander has an order, don't hook the tartar today, you didn't see it, the brothers below didn't throw the hook, if it was in the past, I'm afraid the head will be broken......" The other soldier argued.

Listening to the arguments of the surrounding soldiers, Zhang Heng felt that such a fierce siege by the Tartars seemed to have a purpose, and it would never be such an aimless waste of people.

……

Huang Taiji is about to tighten his teeth, how many times has this been? The people who rushed up still only splashed a wave and disappeared, this kind of play is really torturous.

"The order is to urge the drum ......," Huang Taiji still ordered. The surrounding Baylors, large and small, have long been suppressed by the Ming Dynasty's grenades that don't want money and rain all over the sky, and who can resist this kind of thunder plough that comes after a while? Hearing Huang Taiji give the same order again, they all looked at Huang Taiji in surprise.

"Chirp"

……

Zhang Baihu listened to the war drums urging more tightly outside, and couldn't stop laughing in his heart, how can people be compared with iron and stone? No one can stand the explosion of this thunder plow.

"My lord, my lord, we don't have many grenades......" A voice sounded in the darkness.

Zhang Baihu, who had been laughing at the Tartars to send him to death, only then did he remember that he had forgotten this, and now that this section of the city wall has collapsed, it is quite inconvenient to store grenades and transport grenades, and he only cares about throwing them refreshmently, but he forgets that it is not easy to replenish grenades.

"Each small flag immediately sent someone to the north fence to transport grenades, remember, ...... quickly" Zhang Baihu hurriedly ordered, this is the first time to order to replenish grenades, in the past, as long as you throw it once, you can scare away the Tartars, this time, it has been several times in a row, and the Tartars seem to rush up without scruples. On Zhang Baihu's face, sweat suddenly fell, but in the darkness, a more determined face was faintly visible.

"Ermao, go and transport grenades......" As soon as the old man heard Baihu's shout, he immediately patted Ermao beside him and asked Ermao to transport grenades.

The small flags of this team were also fluttering in the dark, and he had to call the shots in this matter, but he didn't think much about it, and then shouted: "Ermao, go quickly, you are responsible for transporting grenades for our team." ”

Ermao didn't think much about it, immediately bent over, and quickly ran towards the north, now the west wall has collapsed, and it is impossible to transport grenades from the south, nor can he take grenades from the inside of the city wall, but can only take them from the fence further north, which is quite inconvenient.

Listening to the sound of guns and cannons everywhere, and listening to the shouts of the Tartars attacking the city, Zhang Baihu wiped the sweat beads on his face and shouted calmly: "Be careful, don't throw too much, I've already gone to get the grenade, and it will be transported to ...... soon."

In the dark, they couldn't see everyone's faces clearly, and many people subconsciously mō mō the grenade on their body.

"Grenade ready to ......" Zhang Baihu's voice sounded loudly in the dark, covering the guns in the distance, the shouts of the enemy. ,

"......Boom, boom, boom......" Another explosion sounded.

The tide of the siege, accustomed to the retreat of xìng, this siege, is just a wave of jī huā.

Zhang Heng looked at the real thing on the city wall, listened to this explosion, felt that something was wrong, and suddenly said: "Oh no......, come on, quickly tell the fence on both sides, and let them replenish the grenades on the remnant wall as soon as possible......"

The explosion of this unusual grenade made many people famous.

Huang Taiji listened from a distance, and heard that this explosion was far less continuous than the last few times, and it seemed that it was less than half of the last few times.

Huang Taiji got excited, he guessed correctly, although the grenades in Zhenjiang Fort are fierce, but the number of people carried by each person is also limited, if it is usual, it must be quite convenient to replenish, and he may not dare to use human life to test it like this, but today is different, the cannon collapsed the city wall of Zhenjiang Fort, presumably the people on the remnant wall cannot replenish the grenade from inside the city wall, so, it can be tested once, this time, it is right.

"Come on, give orders, and then urge the drums," Huang Taiji ordered excitedly.

Everyone looked at their Great Khan in surprise, didn't the Great Khan always oppose the use of human lives to fill the Zhenjiang Fort? Why is there such a non-stop drum urging without scruples today?

"Chirp"

……

Listening to the drum sound of the Tartar urging again, Zhang Baihu's face sweated again, a mistake, it was definitely a mistake, his own team, the grenade had been thrown almost completely, but he didn't have time to replenish, looking at the Tartar that came like a big net, Zhang Baihu's face was even more resolute.

The command "Grenade ready ......" still sounded calmly.

However, there were not many unscrewed grenades.

The "......boom" explosion sounded, but it was noticeable, much weaker. The explosion exploded between the waves of the siege, but apparently, without the effect of the thunder plow, many Tartars found that they could actually survive this hellish thunder, which was incredible, and they were hesitating whether to continue the attack, or to retreat as before?

Huang Taiji watched from afar, heard the explosion, was ecstatic, and immediately shouted: "Urge the drum, step up the drum, don't stop......"

Houjin's big and small Baylor, the generals, looked at their own Khan in surprise, it turns out that the grenades in Zhenjiang Fort are also limited, and they cannot be thrown out indefinitely. This time, by taking advantage of the night, I tried out the bottom line of Zhenjiang Fort, presumably, without grenades, Dajin's warriors should be able to climb to the top of the city.

"Knock...... Boom...... Boom...... The drums of the ...... were constantly sounding, and the Houjin soldiers, who were still hesitating to continue the attack just now, heard the drum and immediately chose to continue the attack.

Zhang Baihu stared angrily at the city wall. Draw your saber and shout, "Kill the Tartars"
