There was a panic on the tower of the East Gate,

Billowing black smoke mixed with the smell of blood filled the entire city wall,

"Don't mess up, the soldiers are attacking again, continue to release!" Huang Liangji roared loudly, commanding from another Hongyi cannon position.

The loud noise stunned the Ming army, but soon the Ming soldiers regained their calm,

After all, no one saw what was going on just now, maybe it was a bomb, right?

Now the main thing is to defend the city, and no one cares how this thing is blown up.

Suddenly,

There was another loud bang, and the earth-shattering fire rose at the east gate, and even the Shengfan army thousands of paces away could see it clearly.

A huge explosion, the Ming soldiers in the city turned on their backs,

Even the heavy soldiers under the city who were responsible for transporting arrows and rolling logs were unstable.

Many Ming soldiers were affected by the explosion and flew upside down.

A large number of limb fragments were swept into the air by the huge impact and landed all over the city, startling the defenders of the city and screaming again and again.

This time the Ming troops in the city were all dumbfounded,

I saw that there was only a pile of broken copper and iron on the two red-coated cannon positions, and there were some scraps of minced meat.

The main general Huang Liangji was seriously injured on the spot,

Simply a few personal soldiers desperately protected him, otherwise he would have exploded and overturned into the sky at this moment.

Liu Yu saw it clearly,

He and Zhu Honghuan hid on the city tower and witnessed the whole process of the explosion of the red-clothed cannon.

It's not a bore at all,

Instead, the shells flew into the gun position and detonated the black powder that had accumulated near the gun position.

After the black powder was detonated, the huge force directly blew the nearby Ming army into pieces.

"Whoosh."

A sharp sound broke into his ears, almost piercing the eardrums of the Ming soldiers present.

It was as if something was flying across the sky at high speed, heading towards Mingcheng.

"Boom!"

Mingcheng shook violently,

A solid bullet hit the middle city tower, directly overturning a corner of the city tower,

Another solid bullet slashed through the walls of the East Gate and flew into the inner city, smashing a wooden house.

Before the Ming army could react, a few more shells,

Accurately hit the wall of Mingcheng, and a shot slashed through the city wall and bounced into the moat, splashing a lot of fire and soil.

And Mingcheng shook violently, and there were a large number of cracks in the walls that were hit in several places.

"It's the Spaniards' artillery!" Such a thought suddenly flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

"It's the Franc man," shouted someone from the city wall, pointing in horror into the distance.

Liu Yu hurriedly stepped forward and looked fixedly,

It was a hill two miles away, and at this moment, black smoke rose from the sky.

Liu Yu's face was shocked,

That hill is about two zhang high, and it is about two miles away from Mingcheng.

As early as when Huang Liangji wanted to fight with the Spaniards and outside the city, Liu Yu took this into account.

This is almost the only high place within the range of more than ten miles of Mingcheng, and Liu Yu was also worried that the Spaniards would occupy this place and bombard Mingcheng with artillery.

But after careful observation, the Ming army thought that it was impossible, because although there was a small road here, the cannon body was too heavy, and it was impossible to push the artillery to a high place by relying on animal power, not to mention that it was two miles away from Ming City, and the weight of the artillery that could have this range was by no means lighter than the red-coated cannon, how did the Spaniards transport the heavy artillery.

It was not only Liu Yu who was shocked, but also the Ming soldiers present who were terrified.

"Hex,"

"Hexology, the Franc machine man has hexology!"

The morale of the Ming army plummeted,

The Franco Cannon was able to hit Mingcheng two miles away without missing a shot, so it could not make the soldiers of the Ming army frightened?

People in this era believe in the power of ghosts, gods and monsters, especially in the army, when they encounter things beyond their expectations, they will often be classified as ghosts, and the main general Huang Liangji is seriously injured and dying, and the Ming army at this moment is in chaos, and the morale that has finally risen has fallen to the bottom in an instant.

"Franc is magical." One shouts out a thousand people to drink,

The panic on the city wall instantly spread throughout the east gate, and even the people who assisted in defending the city knew about the magic cast by the Franco.

For a while, the entire Mingcheng army was panicked.

Of course, Liu Yu would not believe the absurd idea of the Franc machine outside the city to cast a demonic spell, but at this moment, he had no good way.

Not far from the hills, the two Saikou cannons were hot, and wisps of black smoke rose up.

Since the natives under the command of Breux did not wait for the Spanish soldiers to fully arrive to attack the city, the Spanish artillery at this moment only pulled two nine-pounder guns to the hill and hurriedly opened fire.

In fact, as a nine-pounder artillery, the ultimate range in the seventeenth century was only one or two miles, and Officer Gil'an did not report any hope, he wanted to contain the Ming artillery on the Ming city, who would have thought that the Spanish artillery was so powerful.

Both rounds of artillery bombardment were all hit, and even the two heavy guns on the city wall were destroyed in the first round of fire.

"General Bolo, the Spaniards have opened fire." One of the pro-soldiers shouted.

Seeing this, Bo Lu, who had just been shocked by the red-clothed cannon, stood up despite his injuries,

"Haha, it's still the Spanish artillery fierce,"

"Order the Bangbangya to attack immediately." Bruce snapped.

"Look, General, Simon was blown down by the Spanish artillery." One of his own soldiers pointed to the west gate of the city.

Bolu calmed down,

The Ming City was suddenly attacked by the Spanish artillery, and for a time the battle was in chaos and a large part of the west gate wall collapsed, which was an excellent opportunity to attack the city.

Bo Lu and several tribal generals glanced at each other, and commanded in a deep voice: "All departments listen to my orders, attack the east gate of Ming City, and the first person to climb the city tower will be rewarded with 1,000 silver yuan." ”

The reward is not unsubstantial, and the soldiers present are all red-eyed, eager to kill directly to Mingcheng, and be the first to climb to the head of Mingcheng.

Several tribal generals hesitated for a while, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that they should attack Simon immediately at this moment.

The west gate city wall was bombarded by artillery, but it was much easier to attack than the east gate.

Several tribal generals glanced at each other, but they led their troops to attack.

The tribal generals present at Bloch's little ninety-nine naturally also knew,

Just as their Luzon natives fought in front of the Ming City, while the Spaniards waved their flags and shouted behind them.

The life of the Spaniards was more noble than that of the natives of Luzon, and the soldiers around Bolo were naturally much more noble than the Bonbonya people under their command.

Naturally, they were the ones who went to the east gate to suffer, and it was naturally he who attacked the west gate and picked peaches.

"Knock knock knock," with a burst of drums, the soldiers once again launched a tidal attack.

Rushing to the front is naturally the Bang Bang Ya people and other soldiers,

It's just that this time Boru's own soldiers also went into battle,

They rushed straight to Simon,

Simon

In the case of thousands of soldiers attacking the east gate, Bolu's personal soldiers quietly launched an offensive against the west gate.

The walls of the West Gate collapsed in the shelling of the Spanish artillery just now.

Because the Ming City itself is a coastal defense city, it has been damaged in several wars, because the offensives are from the sea, so the West Gate has been repeatedly attacked by the sea, and the city wall itself has collapsed.

The Ming army only partially repaired it with ashlar and wood in a month, and only a few stray bullets crossed the east gate and directly collapsed the damaged part of the west gate.

Gave Blü a big chance.

Hundreds of Boru's own soldiers swarmed and set up wooden ladders towards the west gate.
