Xu Shiming taught Qingzhuang a simple method, tie the mine string to the rope, and then configure a two-foot thick stick for each person.

When you want to throw a mine, hold the mine outside the city wall with both hands, press the mine against the wall, then hold the mine string with your left hand and fix it temporarily, take a thick stick with your right hand, and put a ...... on the mine.

This method uses gravity to make the mines fall freely, and as for where to explode on the city wall, it is relatively safe for the entire young man who is sheltered by the city wall.

The explosion of a mine is far more powerful than a grenade, and the explosion has more fragments, as long as the explosion is made when the enemy soldiers climb the city wall, it can always cause damage and at least have a certain deterrent effect.

As for the killing of the enemy, Xu Shouren could not predict it, it was a strategy that was better than nothing, and Xu Shouren did not have much hope.

The 6,000 crossbowmen on the south gate wall lost nearly 1,000 people in the battle just now, although the number is still small compared to the rebels, but for the overstretched troops, it undoubtedly makes the defensive force more dispersed.

As a supplement to the crossbowman's arrows, Xu Shouren believes that this trick is still useful.

And the final fact is that Xu Shouren underestimated the bloody nature of these five hundred young people, and it was precisely because Xu Shouren taught them a simple and rough way to use them, so that these five hundred young people had a way to die with the enemy.

It can be said that if it weren't for these five hundred young people, the south gate would not have been guarded.

On the other hand, it can be said that if there were no mines, even if these 500 young men had to work hard, they would not have been able to exert their strength.

The so-called times create heroes, and the times are conditions. Without the current situation, even if you want to be a hero, it is impossible.

So it can be said. Landmines have made the name of 500 brave men.

People are all forced out, and this sentence is the truth wherever it is placed.

When the defenders on the walls were constantly depleted with crossbowmen, and the arrows fired could no longer cover the rebels who climbed the walls, it was an irreversible fact that the enemy ascended the walls.

And the defenders on the city wall, except for the crossbowmen, were only the five hundred young men who had just been recruited for a day.

They had no other armament in their hands except a handful of grenades and mines that they had not been skilled for a long time. Not even a decent piece of armor.

The regular army of Dali was equipped with leather armor, but Xu Shouren considered that there were too many young men and women who were recruited, and it was not suitable to participate in frontal combat. They were just asked to do the work of transporting supplies, so they didn't distribute the corresponding equipment.

Later, it was also on the impurple, that 500 young men were selected and asked to throw grenades and mines down on the city walls. It can also be regarded as cooperating with crossbowmen to defend the city.

But once the rebels climbed the city wall. The crossbowmen also had to throw away their crossbows and draw their knives to fight them, and although the crossbowmen were far from being the match for the infantry, there was always room to fight back in the momentary chaos on the walls.

But these 500 young men were just temporary conscripts, and they didn't even have the most basic training, and they didn't even have the swords they wanted to fight for.

The first thought of the young men was to escape, but once the rebels poured onto the walls. And more and more, and they will never let you go because you are clothed in the garments of the people. In fact, as long as any creature is on the walls, it is an enemy.

There was a great confusion on the walls, except for the ear-chilling sound of swords clashing against each other, and all that remained was the sound of angry shouts and death-forming wails.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of young men were cut to the ground by the rebel soldiers.

By this time, the fall of the South Gate had become irreversible.

Xu Shouren, who was watching the battle, quietly left the city tower with sixteen guards and headed towards the north gate.

The situation is extremely bad, once the plan is undefinable, Xu Shouren will plan to retreat with the crossbowmen, but at this time, if the crossbowmen are ordered to retreat, I am afraid that even he will not be able to leave.

Xu Shouren could only change his plan, abandon the south gate, and retreat to the east gate after joining up with the Ming army at the north gate.

Just after Xu Shouren left the city wall, an explosion of a mine sounded.

There was something unusual about this explosion, as it had not been remembered from the moment the first rebel soldier rushed to the wall.

Xu Shouren was a little surprised, and couldn't help but stop and turn around.

After this explosion, there was no further explosion for some time.

Xu Shouren shook his head, smiled bitterly, and ordered to continue to march towards the north gate.

But at this moment, a series of explosions sounded, getting denser and denser, more and more intense, and ......more and more continuous.

According to the accounts of those who witnessed it among the five surviving survivors, the qiē happened so suddenly, so helplessly, and so exciting, that if he were allowed to experience it again, he would not hesitate to detonate the mine, just like those who were crushed to pieces.

When the rebel soldiers began to kill the young people, there were always one or two people who were particularly arrogant.

With no room to fight back, landmines are their only option.

Xu Shouren only taught them how to detonate, but did not tell them how dangerous it was to get up close.

Qing Zhuang didn't know what a safe distance was, but he knew from the scene after throwing it just now that this thing could give them a chance to fight back.

So, as soon as it happens, it happens logically.

The first explosion came from a young man who was stabbed in the stomach by a rebel soldier, and no one knew what this person was called, and he couldn't find out, because even the city tower had disappeared, and how could he still find the body?

According to the survivors, this man was holding a mine in his left hand and a stick in his right hand to stab him in the city, when he happened to rush up from under the city wall.

In this world, some people's first reaction to being injured is to be afraid, some people immediately save themselves, and some people's first reaction is to fight back.

If people's personalities are different, the ending will naturally be different.

Therefore, character determines the outcome.

And this young man is the last kind of person, and his reaction is to fight back, since you want me to die, I will let you die faster.

He had only one option to fight back, and that was to detonate the mine, and his movements were so fast that the rebel soldiers didn't even notice.

He just let go of the stick in his right hand, pinched the mine, and pulled .......

The explosion happened like this, and it happened on the crowded city wall surrounded by people, and in an instant, the crowd centered on them appeared a hollow with a radius of more than two feet.

No matter how far away, people can only hear the explosion, but they can't see what is happening.

Everyone stopped fighting at this moment, and looked in unison at the place where the explosion had occurred, which had long since become a blur of flesh and blood.

Even if it was a soldier who was fighting, he was sick to his stomach when he saw this paste-like piece of flesh and blood. (To be continued......)
