Chapter 256: Fire Burns the City

"Quick! Burn the wind! Rush in before the Ming army reacts!"

All the armoured and Korean soldiers advanced quickly, and for each point faster, they had an extra chance of winning.

Because it was a siege, Turg's command was full of infantry, although it was not as fast as the cavalry, but it still ran to the city gate in a very short time.

At this time, ten strong men had already used precious grenades to blow up the Ming army that had heard the sound.

A precious gate to defend for the follow-up soldiers.

Turg kept an eye on it and let the North Korean soldiers enter the city first.

When they heard that the 3,000 Korean soldiers who led the advance to the city were not ambushed, they quickly sent leather armor soldiers to pour in.

At this time, the sound of fighting began to sound in the city.

Li Shutai had also run more than 800 meters outside the city, and saw that there was almost no sound of fighting in the city, so he believed Shang Kewei's words, and hurriedly ordered the army to advance at full speed, preparing to take Kaesong in one fell swoop.

Seeing that no less than 6,000 people had poured into the city, King Ding, Chen Yongfu and others knew that the time had come, and ordered someone to light the fuse.

At this time, Turg also rushed into Kaesong.

But soon he discovered the anomaly, no matter how defenseless the Ming army was, it was impossible for him to break through to such a deep part of the city without resistance.

"Oops, it's a trick! This is an empty city!"

But it was too late, and on the city wall, dozens of ghostly light points jumped down from the head of the city and jumped to the streets everywhere.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Dozens of explosions rang out through Kaesong, a strange red light illuminated the rising smoke, and the smell of blood was scattered in Kaesong, accompanied by a raging fire, burning in the city.

The choking smell of sulfur and thick smoke wafted everywhere, causing the captives and Korean soldiers to cough and cry.

Turg led the people back wildly, and those who entered the city first would definitely die in the fire, and themselves, close to the city gate, must still have hope of life.

He is not a hot prince yet, but he can't die in battle.

Boom Boom Boom......

When he was still more than 30 meters away from the city gate, Turg saw countless huge stones pouring down on the city head, blocking the city gate.

At the same time, countless straws and water fell from the sky.

A rubble wall of nearly one and a half meters was formed, blocking the north gate tightly.

Outside the city, Li Shutai heard a loud noise in the city and saw the fire in the sky, and shouted in shock: "Fooled!"

The first thought in his heart was that the Ming army learned Zhuge Liang's fire to burn Xinye.

The North Korean soldiers who followed Turg into the city, there were still more than 3,000 people who did not enter the city, listening to the explosions in the city, looking at the falling boulders in front of them, and suddenly lost their fighting spirit.

There was no longer a Jurchen around to control them, and they immediately scattered as birds and beasts, fleeing in all directions.

Without waiting for Li Shuotai to rush over, there was not a single Korean soldier in front of the north gate.

In the city, in addition to the fires in the sky, the Ming army at the head of the city also kept releasing guns and arrows, and kept harvesting the lives of the enemy.

As soon as there are captives gathered, there will be shells that will fall and send them to heaven en masse.

Turg looked at the sea of fire in the city, looked at the tightly blocked city gate, and sat on the ground with his ass, "It's over, it's over......

Li Shutai was still running wildly, he knew that no matter how powerful the Ming army was, it would be impossible for the night to eliminate more than 10,000 people in such a short period of time.

As long as you attack it yourself, you can win a chance to survive your comrades in the city.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Just as Li Shutai led his troops to run wildly, more than a dozen cannon shots rang out around him, and the dirt splashed by the explosion hit him in great pain.

Li Shutai immediately heard that it was the sound of mortars.

"The Ming army is really well prepared!"

When Li led Tai to run 150 steps below the city, countless rockets fell from the sky, and regular muskets rang out from time to time.

The Ming army stood at the head of the city, desperately shooting at the Jianjiao outside the city, and the arrow clips of the five-arrow crossbow were changed and replaced, and they kept shooting sharply.

In the city, under the light of the fire, the captives and Korean soldiers could not hide

, or was engulfed in flames, or shot by the Ming army.

In particular, the Jianyu armored soldiers, their clothing was too eye-catching, and they became the primary target of the Ming army, and in just a quarter of an hour, more than 1,500 people had died at the hands of the Ming army.

At this time, after the bombardment of explosives, the devouring of the sea of fire, and the shooting of the Ming army, the real prisoners in the city were almost killed, but most of the Korean soldiers survived because of the mercy of the Ming army's men.

Li Shutai listened to the gradually thinning gunshots and explosions in the city, and he knew that most of the Turg troops were all killed.

At this time, his men and horses also galloped not far under the city wall, seeing that the wall was in sight, and did not want to throw more than a hundred grenades on the city.

The sound of dense explosions immediately took a large number of lives.

The armored soldiers, in particular, became a live target for the Ming army, and most of the grenades were thrown at them.

It can be said that most of the people killed by the more than 100 grenades were real captives.

Seeing such an explosion, the North Korean soldiers lost their courage and fled in all directions.

Li Shutai shouted the order, but he couldn't stop it at all.

After all, he only had 3,000 armored soldiers, and at this time, he could not protect himself, so he really had no extra strength to prevent the North Korean soldiers from escaping.

Boom Boom Boom ......

There was another dense explosion, and the scene was full of severed limbs, as terrifying as hell.

All the Korean soldiers understood that they would not be able to climb the city wall under any circumstances, and if they didn't escape while there were fewer prisoners, they would really have to die here.

For a time, seven or eight thousand people were running around with their heads in their hands, and there were people everywhere except in the direction of the city wall.

Lee believes that even if 3,000 more people come, it will be impossible to stop the retreat of these North Korean bastards.

Suddenly, Li Shutai was stunned, and he thought of an important situation.

Kaesong does not occupy a large area, and there are nearly 30,000 Ming troops in the city, and it is impossible for all of them to stand on the city wall.

Such a large explosion and sea of fire will definitely hurt the Ming army itself.

But Wu Sangui is not a fool, he will not do such a self-harming thing.

This can only show that there were not so many Ming troops in the city at all, and a considerable part of the Ming army left Kaecheng ahead of schedule.

Li Shutai's scalp was numb, if there was an ambush of the Ming army nearby, a charge at this time would definitely be able to annihilate the 3,000 soldiers he led.

"Withdraw!" Li Shoutai shouted.

When the armored soldiers heard this, they hurriedly retreated and ran out of 2 miles with Li Shutai in one go.

Li Shutai looked back and saw that there were only 2,000 people who came out with him.

He didn't have time to regret it, but quickly looked around and looked for the Ming army.

But the surroundings are dark and quiet, and there is no Ming army.

"It's broken!"

Li Shoutai shouted.

"The Ming army doesn't look down on my remnants at all, and they must make a detour to the south, either to attack Hanyang or to attack the big tent of the Chinese army in Banzai!"

……

At this time, Hauge listened to the explosion several miles away, and was very worried, did the Ming army in Kaesong have so many explosives!

He said happily: "Fortunately, it is a sneak attack at night, if it is a general attack tomorrow, I don't know how many Jianyu warriors will be killed in battle!"

Da Da Da ......

Suddenly, a hurried sound of horses' hooves came from the west.

Hauge suddenly became alert and shouted, "Prepare for battle, enemy attack!"
