"Give it to me!"

At midnight, south of the city, the Jurchens began to attack.

They drove the selected 8,000 Shun troops and began an attack on the southern part of the city.

For three days, there had been no movement of the Jurchens outside the city, which made the Ming troops stationed here think that maybe the Jurchens would not attack.

However, now the unforgiving reality shattered their illusions, and the legendary fierce Jurchens began to kick in.

The Jurchens are in the mouths of those merchants from Liaodong, but they are vicious and murderous without blinking. Legend has it that they even eat human flesh raw, and will dig out the hearts and livers of their enemies on the battlefield.

I have heard too many legends like this, and when the defenders here in Jingshi see the Jurchens, they will be more or less nervous and panicked.

This so-called people are the same as the clouds, and this is the truth.

In fact, this kind of rumor is not true at all, and no one believes it at all in modern times.

Everyone has one head and two arms, so there's nothing surprising about it at all.

But this is the 17th century.

People's thinking and gaze cannot be compared with modern people.

If the Ming defenders have a person who is sensible, and encourages everyone a little, the big guy will be relieved.

The Guishun army in the charge, wearing the Houjin uniform, with a money rat tail on the back of their heads, looked no different from the Jurchens at that time.

In fact, they were all Ming people who were arrested by the Jurchens and wanted to survive.

It's just that they spend a lot of time with the Jurchens, and they have killed a lot of their own compatriots with the Jurchens, so they just go one way to the dark group.

However, after all, I learned such ruthlessness from the Jurchens.

At first glance, they are no different from the Jurchens.

The city wall of the capital division is very tall and thick, and the Guishun army besieging the city has prepared more than 50 ladders, which are densely packed like ants and rush to the city wall at night.

In their rear. A thousand true Jurchen Jiala soldiers were on standby, and their role was to supervise the attacking Guishun army. If the Guishun army retreats without hearing the order, then wait for their soldiers to mercilessly slash and kill.

The military law of the Jurchens has always been very harsh, and they are not allowed to leave without permission before the battle.

If you really do this, then you will be beheaded by your own people when you come back.

Especially when the Jurchens enforced the law against the people of the Shun Army, they were even more ruthless.

The soldiers of the Guishun Army, who knew this very well, knew very well that going back would be death. So one by one, they gritted their teeth and rushed over, hoping to take the wall.

In fact, letting them attack is just letting them die as cannon fodder.

Huang Taiji is not stupid, he knows it very well. That is, with such a mere 8,000 Shun army, it is obviously impossible to seize this city wall.

How stupid must the Ming army defending the city be to be repulsed and let the Guishun army capture this city wall.

What's more, there is a gate under this wall.

Once lost, the Jurchen army will be able to drive straight in.

If the Jurchens were allowed to take this city wall and gate, then the capital would ...... But it will be ruined.

So, the defenders here will definitely fight back desperately.

And the fate of these 8,000 Guishun troops will not be much better.

Huang Taiji didn't think about success at all, all he had to do was to launch an attack on the Jingshi by the Anggui Shun army. Psychological pressure on the Ming court to force them to make the reaction they wanted.

Using 8,000 appointments to achieve his own goals, only Huang Taiji can do such a thing.

However, for Huang Taiji and the Jurchens, the lives of these 8,000 Guishun troops were not valuable.

in their eyes. Not even a mule and a horse.

Yes, in the eyes of the Jurchens, the names of the Guishun Army, the original Ming people, are not even comparable to the animals.

So, what are the 8,000 names?

That is, the number of surrendered troops in the army is not very large. Otherwise, Huang Taiji can also send more lives.

The soldiers of the Guishun army, with torches and weapons in their hands, poured over like a tide.

At the same time as the Jurchens attacked. The Ming defenders at the head of the city also took action.

Bang Bang!

The sound of the rapid tapping of iron reverberated in the night.

"The Jurchens have attacked the city!"

The defenders ran to the battlements.

And in these ranks of defenders with panicked expressions, there were such a group of people with no fear on their faces, and even when they heard that the Jurchens had launched an attack, their faces showed a trace of excitement.

"Your Highness, the Jurchens have attacked."

Master Wang didn't know where Lu Dao got a suit of armor, but his small body was covered with such a pair of armor, which made him look a little nondescript.

After Wang Fuzi received Zhao Hongyu's order, he immediately went to the Li Fan Yuan and told the Li Fan Yuan that they were going to sell weapons, and asked the Li Fan Yuan to be responsible for telling Zhu Shangwu.

And after Zhu Shangwu learned the news, he immediately summoned Zhao Hongyu and them again.

Originally, Zhu Shangwu thought it was just ordinary swords and other weapons, but when Zhao Hongyu showed them, Zhu Shangwu realized that these weapons were things he had never seen before, and they were extremely powerful.

When Zhu Shangwu saw the weapon displayed by Zhao Hongyu, he suddenly had extremely strong confidence in repelling the Jurchens outside the city.

Even Zhu Shangwu felt that if he could buy these weapons, then Liaodong would ...... It seems to have stabilized as well.

It's just that when Zhu Shangwu asked about the price of these weapons, Zhao Hongyu's offer startled him.

Oh my boy!

The price of these weapons is not cheap at all.

For example, something that can be thrown out of the canopy to produce a huge explosion, something similar to a firecracker, then one will cost fifty taels of silver.

Because he had been in contact with Zhao Hongyu yesterday, Zhu Shangwu asked Eunuch Xue in detail about the purchasing power of one or two pieces of silver after Zhao Hongyu left.

Therefore, the current Zhu Shangwu is not a novice.

He now really knows how valuable a tael of silver is in his Ming Dynasty.

And the kind of sophisticated fire gun displayed by Zhao Hongyu costs three hundred and fifty taels of silver a stroke.

But. That thing called a 'grenade' is really powerful.

If it is used against the Jurchens, as long as it is thrown out, then it can kill such a large number of people, which is an absolute killer.

At the same time, those firecrackers are also better than the Ming firearms, and they reload faster after firing. The weight of the gun is also very light, and only one soldier is needed to use it.

Where is it like the fire gun of the Ming Dynasty, it needs two people to carry it to use it so troublesomely.

It's a little more expensive, but these weapons are worth it.

Especially after asking Eunuch Xue about the price of the Ming Dynasty's own firearms. Zhu Shangwu immediately agreed to buy it.

According to Eunuch Xue, the firecrackers made by the Ministry of Industry are far inferior to these firecrackers, not to mention the weight, the price of building a firecrackle is more than six hundred taels of silver, and the price is more expensive than the firecracker taken out by Zhao Hongyu.

Of course, what Eunuch Xue didn't tell Zhu Shangwu was that more than 500 taels of silver in the Ming Dynasty's fire gun of more than 600 taels of silver was corrupted.

Eunuch Xue didn't dare to talk nonsense about such a thing.

After all. If he speaks, he will offend many people.

As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, and those ministers of the DPRK and China value silver more than their parents.

These weapons are practical. It's powerful, it's sophisticated, and it's cheap.

However, Zhu Shangwu, who opened his mind. It's also rare to be smart once.

That is, before he really signed an arms sales contract with Zhao Hongyu, he needed to let Zhao Hongyu use these weapons to prove their true battlefield practicality.

Other words. It is useless to just show it in front of him.

It is necessary to really experience a battle and prove that the power of these weapons is indeed an enemy that can kill and injure the enemy, and then Zhu Shangwu can do this trade with Zhao Hongyu.

In fact, it was Zhu Shangwu who remembered what Eunuch Xue told him, that is, even if the people in the market sell garlic, they have to take two green onions and take a small advantage.

Then he learned and used it, and decided to take advantage of Zhao Hongyu.

I have to say that Zhu Shangwu's strange personality, once he is wonderful, it will really be strange and borderless.

He never thought that it would be a very shameful thing for him to do this as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

However, it can be seen from this point that Zhu Shangwu is not as ruthless as the rest of the old Zhu family, and the sea of hearts is very simple.

For Zhu Shangwu's condition, of course Zhao Hongyu will not refuse.

Since you want to see, then let you see and see.

Moreover, Zhao Hongyu also wanted to give the Jurchens something to see.

So, he agreed to go with the flow.

And this kind of thing, Zhu Shangwu must be impossible to check in person, so Zhu Shangwu appointed Eunuch Xue to do this.

"Your Highness, this soldier is in danger, you don't have to go up. If there's a bad guy, we won't be able to explain it. “

When Zhao Hongyu and Wang Fuzi asked and answered, Eunuch Xue, who was following them, spoke.

Zhao Hongyu waved his hand disapprovingly when he heard this, and said: "It's okay, when I was in the Americas, I also experienced wars with the British, the Spaniards and the Dutch, and now this little thing is nothing." ”

Zhao Hongyu was not afraid at all.

Now he is not just coming to this era.

After so much experience in the Americas, Zhao Hongyu will not be so afraid of war anymore.

"Jurchens, this is the sworn enemy of my ancestors. I heard my father say that I was ...... in the Song Dynasty at the beginning", Zhao Hongyu temporarily talked about the story that had been made up a long time ago.

Although there was some blood, Eunuch Xue really believed it. (To be continued......)
