Wang Yong and others not only lamented Wang Dachun's tragic death, but also thought of Ye Fanggu, who had not been seen, did not know whether she was alive or dead, and their hearts were extremely heavy. I can't wait to jump off this cliff for a hundred years. ”

Song Nan came back to his senses and warned himself not to be swayed by love, this is a battlefield where a big war is about to break out, and tens of millions of lives will be buried here at the sound of his order, but he has no time to let himself grieve for one person. Ye Fanggu's life and death are uncertain, if she can live, everything will be fine, if she unfortunately becomes an opponent, then there is nothing to be done, Song Nan will never leave the current major event to rescue. On the contrary, if you can defeat the Tartar soldiers, you can capture the bald fierce trapped in the Great Wall, or you can coerce Ye Fanggu to rescue them, in addition, there is no good way for the time being, and it is impossible for you to take these wounded soldiers to save people desperately with the Tartars.

Song Nan said slowly: "Brother Wang, don't blame yourself, you brothers don't blame yourself, I don't know how many people have died in the battle with the Tartars in the past few months, whose family is not painful to die?" If Aunt Fang sacrificed her life for the country today, I would not be surprised at all. You, me, and even anyone who is here can die here at any time, and fighting is cruel, so why should it be someone else who dies, not yourself and your own relatives? There is no such reason in the world. So you don't have to worry. The most important thing at the moment is to get out quickly, although the Tartar shells are destroyed, they will definitely attack hard, because the Tatar leaders trapped the bald beast in the salt pond, and the tens of thousands of troops of Lord Jiang and Ningxia Wei are on the way to arrive, before noon, if they can't break through the pass of the Great Wall, they will turn the bald beast into a turtle in the urn, so the big war is about to begin. ”

As if to verify Song Nan's words, in the dawn of dawn, a continuous trumpet sounded on the top of Siye Mountain, and a personal guard climbed to the pine canopy to look out, and turned around to report: "The Tartars are all blowing trumpets and gathering, and there are at least five or six thousand people in the valley on the left. ”

Song Nan nodded and said: "It seems that we are about to attack, this is a good opportunity for us to get out, the Tartars refuse to give up, their attention is all on attacking the city wall, we can go back from the side after going down the cliff." ”

Wang Yong nodded and said: "The adults will go back first with a few brothers who can go, and a few of us will find a place to hide first, so we can't delay the time of the adults, so the big battle can't be done without the adults." ”

Song Nan nodded and said: "Yes, this is a good place, as long as it is not windy and rainy, you can hide for a few days, and then I and my five brothers will climb down the cliff and go back, leaving two people to take care of you, leaving you dry food and water, and you will wait here to support you." If you win this battle, I will send someone to pick you up, and if you lose, I am afraid that I will die a martyrdom, then you will have your destiny. ”

Wang Yong nodded heavily and said: "I wish the tartar beaten by the adults will fall into the water, and it is best to capture that bald beast alive, I will slap him a few mouths to relieve his anger." ”

Song Nan smiled: "I hope I can have this opportunity." This guy tosses us a lot, and I want to kick him twice. ”

When the second son of the bald man, Urus, learned that all the cannons and shells of the Condor had been destroyed, and that these Condors had become gray rats crawling on the ground with broken wings, and he was furious and angry; Grabbed several commanders who were in charge of the safety of the Condor cannons in front of the big tent, took off their clothes, and beat them to death with a horsewhip. When he heard that there were only a few dozen Ming spies who came to sneak attack, Urus was even more eager to capture all the barracks along the way and torture them.

But in fact, he knew in his heart that this army formed by improvised patchwork and coercion was very loose, only the more than 30,000 people on his hand could fight, and the rest were all manpower pieced together from various tribes. Most of the spies of the Ming army were able to enter the realm of no one, and most of them were also because of the loose structure of the army, and a set of interconnected systems and orders were not formed between each other, and they were exploited.

But in any case, things have already happened, and the attack on the Great Wall Pass is still going on. Father Khan was on the side of the Great Wall, and if he wanted to take him out, he had to attack hard.

Abandoning all the resentment and unhappiness in his heart, Urus ordered someone to blow the horn of assembling for an attack, standing on the peak in front of the big tent, watching the soldiers and horses all over the mountains slowly gather together, the momentum was really terrifying, Urus suddenly felt that even if he lost the help of the Condor cannon, it seemed that it was no big deal, and what he was facing was just a wall. Although his fathers and the people of the steppe said how impassable the wall was, Urus, who was not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, never believed the words of the old things.

The morning sun rose, the heaven and the earth suddenly became hot and dry, the midsummer weather, even in the morning, it was like a fire falling from the sky, and on the battlefield, it was even more hot, and the atmosphere was almost suffocating.

The 100,000-strong Tartar army launched an attack on the Great Wall Pass with a cross-section more than three miles wide. At the same time that the Tartars sounded the horn of attack, on the Great Wall, Xu Tai personally waved drumsticks and beat the war drums, and more than 16,000 Ming troops stood behind the one-man high battlements, holding bows and arrows, holding stones, and carrying logs waiting for the Tartar soldiers to come like a tide.

Xu Tai's expression was solemn and calm, the sound of the explosion in the Tartar military camp last night resounded throughout the world, and he naturally understood in his heart that it was Song Nan who had succeeded. Xu Tai's heart was already close to worshiping Song Nan, and from the time of the explosion of the Tartar military camp, a battle that had no chance of winning was suddenly easier again. Sitting on this five-zhang high solid city wall, from the perspective of the same leading general, there are almost no effective means of attack, unless it is a hard fight with manpower, but no one can say how many manpower will be lost.

It's just that there is one thing that is a little worrying, when the morning dawned, Song Nan and the others did not return to the Great Wall as originally planned, and when the military orders were assigned, many generals asked about it, and Xu Tai could see that the outstanding generals did not see the panic of Song Nan's presence. Not only them, Song Nan is not here, Xu Tai's own heart is also a little unstable, Song Nan has become a big backer in everyone's minds, including himself, although he is reluctant to say it, but Xu Tai has to admit it in his heart. Song Nan is not here, he wants to independently assume the command of this big battle, and there are still some drums in his heart, but he is not worried about Song Nan's safety at all, and he is not worried that Song Nan will have any accidents. Or he didn't want to think about it, if Song Nan fell into the enemy camp, how would this battle continue, Xu Tai didn't dare to think about it.

The shouts resounded through the mountains, and tens of thousands of Tartar soldiers swarmed in, and the mountains were covered with their ant-like bodies and the dust under their feet, no one knew, not even they knew what they were going to face, and they rushed forward with a blank mind carrying a ladder several feet high, and did not think about anything else.

The first to charge were the soldiers and horses of the various tribes, including the old and weak people who were forcibly pulled, Urus was even more ruthless than his father's heart, he also knew that losing the help of the Condor cannon would make him lose the ability to easily capture the pass of the Great Wall, and he would lose a large number of men if he attacked forcibly, and the bows and arrows of the Ming army on the Great Wall were not ornaments, and there was no way to prevent them from condescendingly pouring these things on their own soldiers and horses, so he let tens of thousands of tribal soldiers and improvised old and weak people take the lead. The purpose is very simple, these people are consuming the defense materials and energy of the Ming army, how many bows and arrows can the Ming army have on the pass of the Great Wall? The nearest supply point in Salt Pond City had already been occupied by Father Khan, and they must not have prepared much supplies in a hurry.

Urus's guess is correct, based on the situation near the pass on the left side of Yanchi City, the number of bows and arrows equipped by the Ming army is 100,000, which sounds a little scary, but in fact, if you spread it evenly, you will find that if you shoot arrows from 10,000 people, one person can only shoot ten arrows. Although the soldiers and horses brought by Xu Tai and Song Nan from Yanchi City to the city wall carried bows and arrows on their bodies, they did not add up to more than 200,000. This is not enough.

By the time the Tartars had rushed to within a hundred paces, the archers had already begun to shoot arrows from above the battlements, and round after round of arrows rained down on the locusts and slammed into the ground; The Tartar soldiers on the ground fell one after another with arrows, and in just the moment of engagement, hundreds of souls flew to Heaven and took refuge at the feet of their Immortal Heaven.

The locusts rained down and screamed so badly that the Tartars had to pay the price of hundreds of men before they had made a charge of ten or twenty paces, and they did not even think to dodge, because they were all the sound of arrows breaking through the air, and perhaps you thought that you could dodge an arrow that could be seen at you, but you would send yourself under the sharp edge of another arrow; The Tartar overseers in the rear shouted loudly with flashing scimitars, and there was no way out, the only option was to rush to the bottom of the city wall and dodge the Ming army's blows in the dead corner.

More than 3,000 people died in the charge, and tens of thousands of Tartars finally rushed to within twenty paces, which was already close to the archers' shooting corner, but they were not favored by the god of luck because of this, on the contrary, another ferocious blow came head-on.

The 1,000 firecrackers that Song Nan brought with him, except for the fifty people who went with Song Nan and others to attack the enemy camp, all the rest were here. The twenty paces distance was condescending, just the right strike distance, but listening to the order of the officer of the Guards Battalion, the black smoke rose into the air, and the invisible and untouched iron sand was like thousands of stinging wasps rushing towards the Tartars.

Although the Tartar in it may not be shot, the probability of hitting such a large area is so high that it is tongue-smacking, and the speed of the iron sand driven by gunpowder is not imaginable, even if you know that they are aiming at you, you can't run or jump to dodge, you can only pray not to be shot.

After a round of firecrackers, almost all the more than 1,000 Tartars who were running in the front line were knocked down, just like a long knife suddenly slashed on the first line of the Tartar attack, and the remaining Tartar soldiers were still twenty paces away, and the Tartar soldiers who rushed into twenty paces were left with only a few hundred people standing alone.

"I'm cāo!" It was the first time Xu Tai had seen the power of the fire gun fired in front of him, and he was not interested in firearms before, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he finally understood why Song Nan was holding these guys like a baby, and it was rare to see them once on weekdays.

"These 1,000 people are worth 10,000 of my archers. Terrible. Xu Tai smacked his tongue.
