The elephants have thick skin and thick flesh, and their strength is amazing, and if they are rushed by the elephant army, they don't have to go back.

Zhang Fu also had to be afraid of this, and said, "If this is the case, then there is only a preemptive strike!" Looking at it this way, tonight, Hu Hancang is bound to attack us, if we can find the direction of the elephant army, we can try the power of artillery. ”

Mu Cheng was so excited that he clenched his fists with both hands and said, "Dashuai, if it doesn't work, then twenty cannons, each bombardment one place, as long as the bombardment is in place, are you afraid that the elephant will not go crazy?" Once the elephant goes berserk, we don't do anything, and he himself will be messed up! ”

"This is a good idea, then pass the order, let the cavalry guard the city gate, once someone rushes out of the city, shoot directly, first surround the Hu clan in the city, and when the rear army comes, let's think about the rest of the matter."

Mu Cheng immediately issued the order, the six thousand Ming army is ready to attack the city tonight, the cavalry guards the gate, the artillery attacks the city, the task is very simple, although the Ming army is cautious, but not nervous at all.

The logistics army took out pots and pans from the car and began to make rice.

Seeing this, the Hu family and his son also put their minds at ease, it seems that the Ming army has just arrived, and they also know the dangers of waiting for work, and they don't plan to do it tonight, which creates a good opportunity for them, once they miss tonight, if they want to find another chance to raid, it is unlikely.

Hu Hancang went down to the city tower, he went to discuss with his general, and decided to send a death squad out first to test these big iron boxes of the Ming army to see what kind of weapons the iron boxes were.

Hu Jichen himself was a leading general, who had fought many battles against Champa and had rich experience, and he personally selected a group of death squad members, and promised to give their families rich pensions once they died in battle.

All prepared together, and in the middle of the night, Hu Jichen and the second son climbed the city tower again, and saw that it was pitch black outside, and in the dark, he only vaguely saw the Ming army's angry wind lamp hanging on the front of the car, and the faint light was swaying in the night wind, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It seems that the Ming army also has careless times!" ”

With that, he raised his hand and waved it forward.

There was light on the city tower, this scene fell in Zhang Fu's eyes, at this moment, his hand also waved, and the horn of the armored car under him sounded, and the sound came out, and the horns of twenty armored vehicles rang one after another, all of which responded to the order, indicating that they had received the order.

Hu Jichen suddenly felt bad, this voice came from the iron box of the Ming army, what did it mean?

And at this moment, a rumbling sound sounded, and I saw that on the armored vehicle of the Ming army, the head of the cannon was aimed at Duobang City, and a shell passed over Hu Jichen's head and fell behind him, making a deafening sound.

The mountains shook for a while, Hu Jichen stumbled a step and threw himself on the ground, behind him, the heat wave rushed in, bursts of screams sounded, and the bricks on the city tower fell on his body in a swoop, and he lay on the ground, like a dead dog, not daring to move.

In the huge city of Duobang, at this time, like thunder falling from the sky, one after another improved cannonballs flew from the distant horizon and landed in every corner of the city.

Before Hu Hancang had time to send a death squad to attack, a cannonball whistled in, slowly enlarged in front of his eyes, and landed in the courtyard of a rich and noble family, a huge explosion sounded, and the rockery was blown into pieces, like a bullet fired, he hurriedly hugged his head and lay down, avoiding this stone rain.

"What's going on?"

A eunuch beside Hu Hancang ran over and shouted, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, the Ming army has attacked, the elephants have been alarmed, and they are rushing everywhere, and the elephant slaves can't control it." ”

Hu Hancang didn't care about this, he hurriedly got up, he was not afraid of death, climbed up towards the city tower, and saw that a very large snowball emitting white light was hanging on the camp of the Ming army, shining as bright as day, and the general of the Ming army held a thing like two small cannon barrels in his hand, caged in his eyes, and looked this way.

Hu Hancang hurriedly lowered his body and hid on the edge of a battlement, he gritted his teeth and waved his hand downward.

It's already so, it's better to fight.

The pioneer officer of the death squad downstairs in the city saw Hu Hancang's gesture, he pulled the reins of the horse, and shouted, "Erlang, rush!" ”

The gates of the city were slowly opened, and the vanguard officer rushed out first, and behind him was a death squad of a thousand of Annam's bravest sergeants.

This city gate is the west gate, not the east gate where Zhang Fu and Mu Cheng are located.

The cavalry guarding the gates saw it and blew a loud trumpet.

Mu Cheng heard it and said with a smile, "Dashuai, this is to fight back!" ”

Zhang Fu nodded, Mu Cheng beckoned to the soldiers, and the soldiers aimed at the figure on the city tower and fired a shot, the figure didn't know who it was, his life was big, he escaped this catastrophe, but the death squad that could rush out was not so lucky.

Governor Huang Zhong heard the gunshot, and he waved his hand, "The Ming army has an order, shoot all the Annan troops who dare to rush out, and no one will be let go!" ”

"Yes!"

In the real rain of bullets, a platoon of ten submachine gunners rushed forward, and did not approach, under the strafing of the submachine guns, Annan's death squad fell at the gate of the city before they could rush out.

They didn't know what the Ming army was holding in their hands, and the death squad behind them didn't have time to stop before they fell to the ground again.

Half of the 1,000 people rushed out, and they didn't fight the Ming army, and they all fell to the ground and died.

Ruan Zongdu, the general of the Hu Dynasty, stood in horror inside the city gate, looking at this scene, all the blood on his face receded, he saw that the Ming army was forcing in, and hurriedly shouted, "Close the gate, close the city gate!" ”

The rest of the death squads don't have to go out, and when they go out, they will also give the Ming army their heads.

Ruan Zongdu wanted to rush to the city tower to find the emperor Hu Hancang, Hu Hancang was helped down from the city tower by two eunuchs, his legs were like noodles, he was paralyzed, and was carried down by the two eunuchs.

Seeing this, Ruan Zongdu was worried and asked, "Your Majesty, how are you?" ”

Just now, Mu Cheng's personal soldiers released the gun, it was Zhang Fu who gave the order, if there is a military situation, it will be reported with the sound of the trumpet, and Zhang Fu's side is ordered by the sound of the gun. In order to save a bullet, Mu Cheng's own soldiers put their guns on the city tower, and his guns were different from the guns in the Battle of Jingjing, after improvement, the range was longer and the accuracy was more accurate.

However, when it was dark, the soldier couldn't see the city tower clearly, and just fired a shot from a distance, but it almost killed Hu Hancang.

Hu Hancang heard the wind in his ears, and he just reflexively dodged, he dodged, on the battlements, leaving a crater, Hu Hancang picked up the falling bullet, imagining that if this iron lump entered his head, today, he, the emperor, will also do it.
