Chapter 234: Burning Purgatory

[Note: The perspective of Jiannu in this chapter]

Ba Dahai returned to the barracks with a tired face.

Ba Dahai is an ordinary flag man of Zhengbai Banner, who has just turned 18 years old this year, but is already the father of two children, and he circled more than 300 acres of land in October last year.

There is more land, and the only two coats at home are not enough.

So this time when he went south, Badahai thought about grabbing a few more coats and going back.

Seeing Ba Dahai coming in, Huang Deheng, who followed the expedition, immediately greeted him, and said with a flattering face: "Master, you can be regarded as coming back, and the minions are about to starve to death." ”

"Here you go." Ba Dahai casually threw half of the wheat cake to Huang Deheng to eat.

The Qing court would only take care of the rations of the bannermen, and the rations of the coats that accompanied the army to the army would be borne by the bannermen themselves, so Huang Deheng was the coat of Bada Hai, and his rations had to be found by Bada Hai himself.

Ba Dahai is actually quite good for coating, and Huang Deheng can at least be half full.

Like the coats of other bannermen, up to now, people have basically lost a lot of weight, which is all for hunger.

Because the vast majority of the Eight Banners soldiers just treat the coat as livestock, and give a bite when they have food, and they are hungry if they don't, anyway, as long as they don't starve to death and die of exhaustion.

Half a wheat cake was in his stomach, and Huang Deheng's whole person finally felt better.

"Master, is it our turn to break down Niulu tomorrow?" Huang Deheng asked cautiously.

Recalling the last demolition, Huang Deheng really had more than one season, the fire oil was poured down from the city, and the raw cowhide on the cart was scalded and smoking.

As soon as the torches of the Ming army fell, the whole thing turned into a sea of fire.

If they had run slower, the two of them would have been burned to ashes.

It's just that the other dozen or so flagmen on the same team as Badahai were not so lucky, and they all died in the fire.

After that, only their master and servant were left in the barracks.

Ba Dahai hummed lightly, and said, "But don't worry, Minggou's Menghuo oil has been exhausted, and the corner tower in charge of our Niu Lu is about to collapse." ”

"Really?" Huang Deheng said happily.

"Really." Ba Dahai nodded and said, "So according to the previous agreement, after Shanyang City is broken, it should be our people with white flags who are the first to enter the city and loot for a day first!" ”

"Master, can the slave make a request?" Huang Deheng said writhingly.

"You're a dog minion." Ba Dahai kicked Huang Deheng, and then said with a smile, "But for the sake of your loyalty, I can promise you, say, what do you want?" ”

Huang Deheng whispered: "Master, the slave wants to snatch a woman back." ”

"You mean that?" Ba Dahai smiled, "Cheng, I agreed." ”

"Thank you, master, the slave will knock one for the master." Huang Deheng was overjoyed.

"Alright, go to bed early." Ba Dahai smiled and said, "I have enough physical strength tonight, and tomorrow I will go into the city to grab a woman!" ”

"Yes, go to bed early." Huang Deheng responded continuously, and immediately fell asleep, and before falling asleep, he even took off the cotton clothes he was wearing and covered Ba Dahai very intimately.

As for Huang Deheng himself, he tried his best to sleep by the campfire.

The next day, at the sound of a trumpet, the master and servant were awakened.

Ba Dahai turned over and sat up, and Huang Deheng hurriedly came over to put on his armor.

Badahai has two sets of armor, one chain mail and one cotton armor.

Ba Dahai's chain mail was passed on by his grandfather to his father and then to him, and this cotton armor was captured from a thief during the Battle of Shanhaiguan, and it was also in that battle that Ba Dahai was promoted to a vest.

Helping Ba Dahai put on the chain mail, Huang Deheng took the cotton armor and put it on Ba Dahai's body.

As a result, Ba Dahai said: "Forget it, I already have chain mail, it makes no difference if you have one more cotton armor or one less cotton armor, you still wear this cotton armor." ”

"Thank you, master." Huang Deheng immediately exchanged tears.

Seriously, it is really rare to meet a master like Badahai, so Huang Deheng cherishes it very much.

The master and servant were draped up, first with the other flags and coats of this Niu Lu, and then with another Niu Lu, and then pushed the overnight repaired cart to the corner tower in the northeast corner, along the way, there were constantly tiger squat guns to hit, most of the guns were blocked by the car, but there were also a few guns fell in the crowd.

So from time to time, Bao Yi would fall to the ground screaming, bleeding nonstop.

But there is basically nothing wrong with the flags, the conditions of the flags of the white flag are still good, almost everyone has a stomach, as long as there is a stomach at such a distance, they are not afraid.

Huang Deheng was also very unlucky to get a lead.

Luckily, this time he wore cotton armor, so it was fine.

Soon, the two Niu Lu arrived on the outside of the corner tower in the northeast corner.

At this time, the other two bannermen of Niulu had already guarded the earthen platforms on both sides of the corner tower, and launched a confrontation with the Ming army on the head of the city, and from time to time the Ming army was shot down by the bannerman with heavy arrows.

At a distance of about thirty paces, a large bow foot can crush the Ming army's bird gun.

When they were still twenty steps away from the corner tower, Badahai and their bannermen also stopped.

After suffering several losses in front, the bannerman easily stopped reaching the base of the city wall, but stayed at a distance of twenty paces, using a large bow to suppress the Ming army at the head of the city.

As for the demolition, it was handed over to Huang Deheng for these coatings.

Huang Deheng and more than 30 other coats pushed the bulky cart to the corner tower.

The Ming army at the head of the city brought down straw bales, wheat straw bales and dry firewood bales and other incendiary materials, but the vault of the chariot was a pointed arch, except for the fire oil, other combustibles could not be hung.

So, the coating hidden in the car was unscathed.

Anyway, the Ming army at the head of the city was shot and killed a lot by the Eight Banners because they leaned out of their bodies.

Immediately, there was a sound of guns sounding on the top of the city, but it was the musketeers of the Ming army who stepped forward to suppress the bannermen and archers outside the city.

"The Ronin Who Started from Douluo"

Taking advantage of the gap when the Ming army had no time to pay attention, more than 30 coatings quickly entered the gap, some of them pry off the hard rammed earth piece by piece with a latte and a hammer, and some of them are responsible for shoveling soil with shovels and pickaxes.

Sweat quickly soaked Huang Deheng's clothes, and even the cotton armor was soaked.

"Kacha!" There was a sudden cracking sound, and dust fell in a plop.

"If it collapses, the corner tower will collapse!" An experienced coat roared, "Retreat!" ”

Hearing this, Huang Deheng turned around and ran out, and in the chaos, he didn't throw away the shovel in his hand, and he was going to be beaten if he lost the shovel.

Huang Deheng had just escaped a few steps away, when a loud rumbling sound sounded behind him, and when he looked back, he saw the dust flying over, covering him in it.

"Oh no!" Under the domination of the strong desire to survive, Huang Deheng felt like a wind under his feet, and finally escaped more than a dozen steps away before the rammed earth fell, so as to avoid being buried alive.

But most of the more than 30 coats with him were buried alive.

only escaped Huang Deheng and the other experienced coating.

"Dog minion, come on!" The roar of the Bada Sea rang in my ears.

Huang Deheng looked at it urgently, and saw that Ba Dahai and more than 200 other bannermen had already rushed over quickly, and Ba Dahai even threw the horse chopping knife on his waist.

Huang Deheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it.

"Go, follow me into the city and rob the woman!" Badahai roared excitedly.

"Robbing women?" Huang Deheng was stunned for a moment, and then shouted excitedly, "Rob women, rob women!" ”

Immediately, Huang Deheng brandished a horse chopping knife and rushed into the gap in the smoky corner tower behind Ba Dahai's ass.

However, because the smoke and dust blocked his vision and he couldn't see the ground under his feet clearly, Ba Dahai fell to the ground, and Huang Deheng hurriedly stepped forward to help his master up.

With this delay, Bada Hai fell at the end of the entire Niu Lu.

"Damn." Ba Dahai roared with some chagrin, "Dog minion, hurry up and chase!" ”

At that moment, the master and servant supported each other to climb up the gap, and the collapsed rammed earth formed a slope a few feet high, and it was still a little laborious to climb over this slope.

The two finally climbed up the dirt slope and were about to rush down, but they stopped their steps.

Because the master and servant who rushed to the top of the dirt slope were horrified to find that the gap was not densely packed with houses, nor rows of shops, but ...... A monstrous fire!

The red flames filled the vision of the two people.

As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but the flames of the flying scroll and the flames of the flying scroll.

And what surprised the two even more was that straw, wheat straw and even dry firewood were constantly thrown from the city walls on both sides of the gap, and the walls inside the gap were also thrown down, etc., inside the gap?

The two of them were horrified to find that there was actually a city wall in the gap!

Just when the two of them were in a daze, a large bundle of dry firewood was thrown down from above.

Ba Dahai was caught off guard, and was instantly smashed to the ground, and was pressed by the scattered dry firewood.

Immediately a large amount of hay and straw was thrown from the top of the city, and finally torches, and the whole gap was soon consumed by the flames.

"Master!" Huang Deheng roared angrily, quickly bent down and used his hands and feet together, desperately picked up the hay and wheat straw, and finally dragged Ba Dahai out of the dry firewood.

In order to save Badahai, Huang Deheng's hands were blistered.

But just for a moment, Bada Hai had already fainted from the smoke.

Huang Deheng did not hesitate to pick up the Bada Sea and rush out of the gap.

In the end, he miraculously rushed down the gap and picked up the dog's life.

When I looked back, I saw that the flames in the gap were higher than the city walls.

With such a fire, the two Niu Lu and more than 200 bannermen who rushed into the gap before are afraid that they have been burned to ashes, right? This is a lot of trouble, and there is no need for convergence and burial.

[Note: These two Niu Lu were seriously damaged in battle, and there are only 200 flags left]

"What's going on? What's wrong? An angry voice suddenly came.

Huang Deheng looked back, but it was the Jiala of Jiala where their Niu Lu was located, but he couldn't name it.

A big man like Jia La Ezhen will not have any intersection with Huang Deheng, so Huang Deheng has no way of knowing what Jia La's name is?
