When Li Wei arrived at the south gate, the situation could still be recovered, since he was ready to hold the city, then the trench antlers or something, always have to be prepared, within the four gates, many trenches were built layer upon layer, and the two sides were shooting muskets back and forth, Li Wei arrived here, and the generals who resisted were overjoyed, and he shouted, "General Li is here!" ”

"General Li is here!" "Great!" A black-faced soldier of the Black Flag Army said loudly, "There is a French nemesis general here, and anyone who comes here will die!" ”

The Black Flag Army's heart was greatly boosted, and the muskets were fired, killing a few French soldiers, and the arrogance of the French suddenly subsided a lot, Li Wei looked at the terrain and cursed, "These Vietnamese soldiers who have no eggs have lost the city gate so lightly, only someone is still on the city gate at this time, do we still have to fight so hard?" Ouch! He bowed his head, the dust was flying, and he swished a few times, and the defensive earthen wall in front of him stirred up dust, and Li Wei scolded loudly, "On the contrary, let the French condescendingly beat us as targets!" ”

The half-collapsed city wall turned into a small hill, the French soldiers stood on the broken stones and bricks, raised their muskets and shot at the black flag soldiers below, fortunately, the gap that was blown up was not large, and the fan range of the French soldiers' shooting was not wide, Li Wei had experienced a white-knuckle battle with the French army, and now at this time, it is absolutely impossible to engage in a white-knuckle battle with the French army at close range, and the foreigners can only use muskets first, "Fight me!" Don't give a damn a damn about attrition, as long as you stop these Frenchmen, no musket ammunition will matter! ”

"Boss," the general who was originally in charge of the war here touched the sweat on his forehead, dodged the bullets fired from above, and walked to Li Wei's side, "There are more and more French devils here, I'm afraid we can't withstand it." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"If you can't stand it, you have to resist it, if you are not as stupid as the Vietnamese, you know that we are defeated here, and what will happen to the brothers on the other city gates!" Li Wei shouted unceremoniously, he slammed the trigger towards the leading French army who rushed down in front of the gap, the man fell in response, and the rest of the Black Flag soldiers were not afraid of the bullets fired from above, stood up, and shot to death all the French soldiers who intended to rush down, the south gate was not the most important originally, but now as soon as such an accident happens, the south gate has become the most critical point, it can be guarded here, everything is negotiable, as long as it is withstood by the French, the mortality rate of the soldiers will be consumed by time, The soldiers of the Black Flag Army are all rotten lives, and it is worth the life of a few people for a Frenchman. However, if the south gate can't be guarded, let the French enter the city, caught off guard, the rest of the comrades on the gate will be attacked by the enemy, even if you want to retreat at that time, you can't get it, when the time comes, you have me, I have you, and it will become a mess, which is definitely not conducive to the Black Flag Army with fewer people, and it can only be resisted at this time!

At the very least, give the defenders of the other two gates time to retreat!

Standing in the position of Guba, you can just see the warships on the water of the Red River, shooting artillery at the north gate in an orderly manner, although it seems that a long time has passed, but Guba took out his pocket watch and saw that it was only two hours before the start of the attack, the sun was hanging high, obviously it was almost noon, in this case, it was too surprising to be able to continue the fierce battle for so long, and what was even more surprising was that the herald came to report: "The resistance at the south gate is fierce, and we can't enter the city!" ”

"The soldiers of France should not be invincible against these country monkeys," said Lone Pull, slowly getting up and unbuttoning his cloak, "I will personally go to the south gate to supervise the battle, if necessary," he took from his own soldier a long-handled musket with a sharp bayonet at the end, "I must lead by example!" ”

"General, I object to such a dangerous act," protested the adjutant, "you are the commander-in-chief, and you must not take any risks. ”

"If you don't take any chances, you'll lose a great gain," Guba threw the cloak to the adjutant, "and now there is no need for any battle command, what is needed is a sudden increase in weight, so that the balance of victory will be tilted in our favor, and this is what I need to do." ”

"General!" The herald suddenly trotted over and announced, "At the north gate, there are hundreds of Black Flag troops between our army and the warship!" They fought it! ”

"That's probably their last resort," Lonely nodded, "trying to blend in with our soldiers and make the guns on the warship unable to shoot, but their tricks didn't work." I decided, he beat him, I beat mine, as long as we stormed the gates, then they would be sandwich biscuits. Okay, dear adjutant, you are here to keep in touch, there is good news of victory, please send someone to tell me at once. ”

Liu Yongfu nervously looked at the Black Flag Army fighting under the city gate, this is the only reserve force in the city that can come in handy, sure enough, in order to prevent accidental injury to his own soldiers, the shelling on the French warship was suspended, and the battle under the city became a piece, he looked at his subordinates nervously, as long as he repelled an offensive in one place, then he could gather his troops, block the south gate together, and drive the French out, and Shanxi City would never be lost.

You must hold on, Liu Yongfu prayed silently in his heart, his palms were full of wet sweat, "Report!" Handsome! The herald knelt on one knee, "The south gate can't be guarded!" ”

"What!" Liu Yongfu was furious, "Li Wei, this waste, why can't he keep it!" ”

"The commander of the French army came to supervise the army in person, the French devil was imposing, General Li couldn't resist it, and the French army had already entered the city."

Liu Yongfu's eyes were black, and the French army entered the city, which was very unfavorable to the Black Flag Army, which was not manpower enough and scattered everywhere, so it had to be, "Mingjin withdraws the troops!" Liu Yongfu closed his eyes helplessly, "Let the brothers on the city wall retreat, and we will have a street battle with the French!" ”

The Black Flag Army on the city wall retreated like a tide, and the Black Flag Army outside the north gate also retreated to the east gate, and suddenly there was no longer the strength to defend the city on the city wall, and the adjutant with the telescope was overjoyed, "God bless France, Your Excellency's plan has succeeded!" ”

The ant-like French army climbed the city wall, and crackling gunfire rang out from time to time in the city, apparently the two sides were fighting, "Now these Chinese monkeys are going to be finished!" The adjutant was gearing up, if it wasn't for Gu Ba's order, he would definitely have to enter the city to participate in the battle at this time, but he was immediately glad that he didn't enter the city, "Your Excellency Adjutant! There is a movement across the Red River! (To be continued.) )
