Zuyo and the remnants of his army were still fighting the enemy, and he still had no intention of sending out reserves, although the city walls had been lost in several places by this time. Seeing more and more rebels climbing the wall, he organized several desperate counterattacks, and his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, but these defenders knew the consequences of the destruction of the city, and they were all fighting to the death.

The musket reserves, which were hiding in the city, were in a hurry, but they must not attack without the order of the commander.

More than half of the 2,000 defenders at the head of the city have suffered casualties, and less than 900 are still struggling to support, while the rebels have left nearly 10,000 corpses under the Tiger Pass, and the battle loss ratio between us and the enemy has reached 10 to 1, which is still within the acceptable range for the besieging side.

Zu Yue looked at his subordinates who had been fighting for a long time, and still reluctantly gave up dispatching the musket reserves, the reserves of firearms in the Tiger Prison Pass were limited, and the consumption of gunpowder was a little less, and firearms must not be used until the critical moment.

You must know that in case Mengjin is broken by the king of Chengdu, the tiger prison will be attacked on both sides, and the contact with Luoyang will be completely severed, and it will be impossible to get a supplement at that time, so Zu Yue will have to be careful at the beginning.

It was with this idea in mind that Zuyo led the defenders to snipe the rebels desperately, as long as he could, and tried his best to rely on cold weapons to block the rebels' attacks. If you can keep the Tiger Prison Pass, it can be regarded as the right one from the Great Tianzun, and the right from the prince to know the grace, even if you die in the last battle for the country, you can go down in history.

was fighting hard to kill Zuyo when he suddenly heard a cheer from the rebels next to him, and turned around to see that a section of the city wall on the west side had been lost, and a large number of rebels were pouring up the city wall from there! Zuyo was so shocked that the horizontal knife in his hand almost fell to the ground......

"Is the Tiger Prison about to be breached?"

Before Zu Yue could react, a soldier covered in blood stumbled in front of him, "My lord, there is a rebel army on the eastern wall that has broken through our defenses and is killing this side. ”

"What's going on? How could the enemy break through the line of defense? Zu Yue was shocked, and now the disadvantage in strength was finally reflected, and he took the guards back and forth to check and fill in the gaps, but he still couldn't stop more and more gaps.

"Hahaha......" Zu Yue suddenly burst out laughing, and for some reason, everyone looked blankly at the bloodstained face, and laughed at the extremely hideous general.

"Phew! It's time! Brothers, don't worry, everyone hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon! Zuyo patted the guard on the shoulder and strode towards the enemy......

The sun began to turn westward, and the bloodied Zuyo killed the rebels who stood in front of him, and then gave the order to attack the musketeers on standby in the city, and many soldiers were by his side, in front of and behind them, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the screams continued, and they were gradually besieged by the rebels......

Once there was a gap in the city wall, coupled with the weakness of the troops, it was difficult for the defenders on the city wall to stop more and more rebels, and in just half an hour, thousands of people poured into the city wall from the gap.

Zuyo and others were surrounded by a large number of rebels and could not move. Many soldiers kept rubbing their hands and looking ahead, and kept muttering: "Where are the reinforcements?" Why haven't there been reinforcements yet? ”

At this moment, there was a burst of cheers from the left wall, and it could be seen that several rebels had discarded their blades and scurried like headless flies, and the originally neat rebel formation suddenly became chaotic......

A large area of fiery red suddenly appeared on the head of the originally vague western city, like red flowers beating! Isn't that the red uniform worn by the musketeers?

Zuyo finally breathed a sigh of relief, the musketeers arrived at the most critical moment, and now there was no need to worry about the walls being breached......

The musketeers began to charge like a tide under the banner of special use, and a rebel army that had landed through the gap was struck by the destruction as soon as it emerged.

"Bang bang bang!" The sound of popping beans continued to sound, and the rebels fell in large swaths at once. The rebels, who were still superior, were turned the tide by musketeers in the blink of an eye.

Groups of sword and shield soldiers with weapons and guards guarded the musketeers' flanks, and the two of them worked together to crush the rebels' advance. By the time they had advanced to the besieged area of Zuyo, the rebels had been cleared of the way.

From the western wall to the northern corner, more than a thousand corpses of rebel soldiers lay along the way, stunned by the musketeers who suddenly killed them.

"Kill! Kill! Kill all the rebels! ”

The musketeers, who had long been holding their breath, shouted neat slogans, and the muskets in their hands reflected the cold light, and strode towards the rebels on the wall. In this way, the outnumbered rebels suddenly lost their numerical superiority, and because they were on the city walls, they did not even have a place to escape.

One of the rebel officers who led the team saw that the situation was not good, turned around and was about to flee along the ladder, at this time the remaining rebels heard the shouts of killing in all directions, and saw a large number of defenders rushing out from the east and west side of the city wall, and at the same time saw their own generals fleeing, and their morale was even lower. The formation suddenly became chaotic, and some soldiers fled with the main general.

The muskets cleanly cleared the rebels on the western wall, and then divided into two groups and advanced to the northeast two sections of the wall, and small groups of rebels were constantly killed on the wall. The musketeers were trained according to their usual practice, grenades were used when the rebels were numerous, muskets were used when they were far away, and when they came to the front and were missed by the sword and shield soldiers, they had to use bayonets to clean up.

They were in three rows, the first on their knees, the second on half-bends, and the third on their feet, with their black-pressed firearms just facing the rebels in front.

"First Discharge!" One of the officers shouted.

Bang bang~~

A large cloud of smoke suddenly erupted from the position of the first platoon, and as the muskets rang out, a group of rebels who had just stood on the wall fell to the ground weakly.

"Second row, put!" Bang!

"The third row comes forward, the first row is ready!" Bang bang!

Ah~~ The screams kept ringing out, and the rebels were beaten by the musketeers! Of course, the musketeers were not without casualties, and when hand-to-hand combat was not possible, the rebels began to use bows and arrows for long-range attacks. One of the marching musketeers was shot in the chest by an arrow and fell to the ground, and a man immediately came up from the reserve, picked up his musket, and filled the gap left by the opponent.

The sword and shield men held their shields aloft, shielding the musketeers from the arrows fired by the rebel archers, so that the musketeers could use their muskets to attack the rebels.

Whether it was the rebels who were fighting fiercely on the wall, or the rebel camp under the gate, they were blinded by this sudden reinforcement, especially the King of Hejian, when he came to his senses, he was stunned to find that the situation they had finally opened up at the beginning was suddenly in danger of losing!

"Send reinforcements now! Send reinforcements...... Don't give up no matter what! ”

If this time the success falls short, not only will the previous loss of troops be in vain, but it will also be a huge blow to the confidence of his own soldiers. If you want to organize another decent offensive, I am afraid it will not be possible to do it in a short time.

Zhang Fangwei groaned, and personally led a part of the soldiers along the ladder to the top of the wall, at this time, the rebels on the city wall had been forced to a corner by Zu Yue with musketeers, and they were about to be annihilated.

Zhang Fangzheng was about to step forward, but suddenly his heart trembled, making him stop involuntarily, and then stretched out his hand to make a stop movement, the rebel soldiers behind him didn't know why, but they still stopped according to the order.

Zhang Fang found that the defenders surrounding the rebels were a little different from what they had seen before, each of them was holding something similar to an 'iron rod' in their hands, and as soon as a spark came out of the front end, and then there was a bang, the rebel soldiers would fall.

"Is this the legendary firearm?" Zhang Fang's heart sank,

Bang bang bang!

A puff of smoke suddenly rose from the first row of musketeers on the opposite side, and several rebel soldiers who had fled immediately fell to the ground, and after a few struggles, there was no more sound.

Zhang Fang frowned, the power of the defender's firearms was somewhat beyond his imagination, he had never seen such a sharp weapon before, and he was ready to try the power of the musketeers himself.

At this moment, a group of musketeers also seemed to have spotted Zhang Fang and them, and under the leadership of an officer, chanting slogans, they ran towards Zhang Fang and them.

Zhang Fang snorted, and was not in a hurry, took the bow and arrow from the hands of his own soldiers, filled it up, but did not trigger it, pointed to a defender opposite, turned back to his subordinates and said: "Look at the general's divine shooting!" ”

As soon as he said that, he let go of his hand, and the bow made a dull sound, and an arrow shot at the opposing defenders. The rebel soldiers watched intently at the castration of the crossbow arrow, which hit the throat of one of the defenders opposite, and the other man fell to the ground and died before he could even snort.

"The general is mighty!"

The might of the main general can often greatly improve the morale of his own soldiers, and Zhang Fanglu's hand greatly alleviates the fear of his subordinates for musketeers. They cheered for it, and they were no longer afraid of the musketeers. Under the command of Zhang Fang, he rushed towards the musket team with his weapon.

The officers who were under his command and were preparing to shoot were taken aback by the group of rebels who suddenly rushed in. The officer of the musket team snorted coldly, and unhurriedly ordered his subordinates to load the ammunition, and then lined up in five rows, mainly because the city wall was a little narrow, if it was lined up in three teams, I was afraid that it would not be easy to perform, so I had to line up a few more rows.

Eighty steps......

Fifty steps......

Thirty steps......

It's finally within range!

At this moment, the ten musketeers who were half-kneeling in front of the formation suddenly opened fire together under the command of the officer, and the white smoke rising from the air suddenly completely enveloped their figures.

Bang bang~~~

The rebel soldier who was rushing forward suddenly felt a huge impact, and then the whole person was forcibly stopped from moving forward, and then staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.

Zhang Fang was also taken aback by the terrifying lethality of the musketeers, he didn't dare to stay any longer, relying on his neat skills, he came from the city to the pass in an instant.

With the addition of the musketeers, the rebels who had just had the advantage were wiped out by the musketeers in a blink of an eye, and there were no rebels left in the city, and the defenders once again firmly controlled the situation on the city walls. However, Zu Yue, the main general of the defenders, did not have a trace of excitement, because he knew that if he had to rely on firearms every time, the Tiger Prison would definitely not last long.
