553 Hypocrisy

Sure enough, there was nothing to do all night, and the Heavenly Army did not attempt to go out of the city at all. This surprised Chen Qiyu, who got up early in the morning.

In his opinion, if the number of the Heavenly Army is so small, if you want to turn defeat into victory, taking advantage of the cover of night to steal the camp is the most likely means. I didn't expect the Heavenly Army to give up such an opportunity for the sake of the untouchables. The legendary and extremely powerful Hu Guang, the leader of the Heavenly Army, is he smart or a fool, or is he Song Xianggong, who is benevolent, righteous and moral?

Chen Qiyu couldn't guess, and he didn't guess either, anyway, as soon as the sky dawned, everything would be under his control. Called the Heavenly Army? That's it.

Thinking of this, Chen Qiyu was in a particularly good mood. Immediately ordered a military meeting to be held, including the leaders of the Rogue Army, all of whom were to come to the meeting.

The content he wanted to lay out was very simple, and it didn't take long for the Ming army battalion to start moving.

The porridge that can shine the shadow is carried to the camp of the thief army, as long as it is not a strong man, that is, the elite main force of the non-thief army, and the rest of the old and weak women and children, all of them receive a bowl of this porridge, and then they are not given weapons, what is in their hands, that is. All rushed to the front of the battle, and did not line up, just waiting for orders.

The number of these people is 50,000, but Yulin City is not that big, even if it is besieged, it can only be invested about 10,000 at a time.

The first 10,000 people were driven out, mixed with the elite of 3,000 rogues from all walks of life, and behind them, there were Ming soldiers in red mandarin duck robes, holding bright machetes, acting as the military law team on the battlefield.

Chen Qiyu looked at the head of Yulin City in the distance, looked at the faint figure of the soldiers of the Heavenly Army, and thought to himself: "This appetizer, see how you can eat it?" ”

Looking up at the sky, he waved his hand, countless war drums. It rang at about the same time, and the sound shook all over the world.

Those more than 10,000 people who were obviously used as cannon fodder had already numbed their faces, and they also changed at this moment. They know that the time has come to decide their fate.

It is to tell the men of the heavenly army not to fight them, so that they can capture the city and live a few more days. Or do you want the heavenly army to at least fight back and harvest their lives for self-preservation?

In fact, even a three-year-old child knows what the answer is.

Forget it, such a world, living in this world, is also sinful. Death is death! Some of the older ones thought so.

But there are also young women and children who don't really want to die, they want to live, even if it's one more day.

With such thoughts, under the shouting and intimidation of the military law team behind him, and under the urging of more than 3,000 thieves, the crowd was densely packed. Carrying some siege ladders to attack Yulin City.

It's almost within the range of the general's cannon, but the heavenly army at the head of Yulin City hasn't moved yet. Chen Qiyu saw this. A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. That's Hu Guang, the leader of the Heavenly Army, shouldn't he really be so naïve and treat these untouchables as treasures, right?

Among those cannon fodder, there are also some who survived the battle, and they almost know the range of the general's cannon. But now that his side is definitely within range, the Heavenly Army has not fired yet. Could it be that they really regard the common people as the sky as the legend says, and are the real common people's team? A hint of luck came to their hearts.

And those elite thieves mixed in the team, they are actually afraid in their hearts, with their numbers, if the heavenly army ignores those cannon fodder. If they really have to kill, they believe that they are not much different from those cannon fodder.

Now that it has entered the range of the general's cannon, but the heavenly army has not fired the cannon, does this mean that the heavenly army is really afraid to fight back? That means that not only may he not die, but he may also make meritorious contributions? As soon as they thought of this, these rogue elites were excited.

But when the attacking team was still about a mile away, they suddenly saw a puff of smoke coming from the city. On this sunny day, it is very clear. Then there was a loud bang.

It's not good, let the heavenly army open fire! All people with a little common sense, whether they were cannon fodder, or the elite of thieves or Chen Qiyu, the governor of the three sides, got this idea.

The only difference is that Chen Qiyu has another idea: as expected, it is nothing special to call the heavenly army, just shouting slogans, fake benevolence and false righteousness, and buying the hearts of the people. When it comes to the critical moment, their true colors will be revealed.

However, to everyone's surprise, what flew out of the city was actually flying at a speed visible to the naked eye. And it couldn't fly far, it was only about half a mile, and it fell to the ground, and stopped after a little tossing.

What kind of iron egg is this, what kind of cannon is it? It's not a small momentum, but that's it? It's scary!

As soon as I thought about this, I heard the "boom" sound of the "iron eggs" in front of me, which was much louder than the sound just now. Huge smoke rose into the air like mushrooms.

After the smoke passed, large pits were left on the ground. As long as you have a little eyesight, you can see at a glance that this kind of cannon that has never been heard of is extremely powerful. If the "iron egg" falls into the crowd, it will definitely kill a large area!

"Boom God Cannon?" Chen Qiyu was shocked, at this time, he finally saw the weapon mentioned in the imperial court's reply.

However, he was not frightened, because he could see that the cannon was powerful, but it did not seem to be far away.

However, for the more than 10,000 people who besieged the city, they would sooner or later come into range. Some of the timid people were already frightened when they saw such a powerful artillery. Some people didn't even know the range, thinking that the next time it would probably fall to their side, so they were so frightened that they hurriedly ran back.

However, they didn't have to go far before they ran into the Judge Advocate General's team with a bright machete. Without greeting or warning, he raised his knife and slashed at it.

With the scream of "Ahh

However, the military law team did not stand still, and they slipped in a long line, approaching in unison, driving them forward like sheep.

More than 10,000 cannon fodder and about 3,000 elite thieves were desperate, they were not yet naïve, and they could resist the powerful explosion just now with their own torn clothes.

But at this time, there was movement again at the head of the Heavenly Army. I only heard hundreds or thousands of soldiers shouting loudly: "Old and young masters, folks, if you don't want to die, listen to the arrangement, and if you don't obey, you should be treated as the enemy of the heavenly army, and there will be no mercy!" ”

The sound was so loud that it spread far away, and even Chen Qiyu heard it. When he heard this, he was very curious. (To be continued.) )
