Chapter 360: Retribution Comes Quickly
Boom, the fire guns at the head of the city blasted down first.
A bowl was facing the opposite gate, and a group of rebels had just run out of the door.
Boom, a shot in the middle.
"Ahh
But soon some people rushed out and scattered in both directions.
The tragic ant possession is about to begin.
It should be said that both sides made preparations for the ant attachment before the war, Zhu Gaoxu did not feel that all the cities could be taken down with a drum because of the surrender in many places, and he carried a large number of bags with the army, which was also to prepare for the siege, after all, there has never been a shortage of siege battles in ancient wars.
Let's not talk about the Zhending siege of the Yan army and the siege of Jinan in Jingjing.
There were also a lot of attacks on the side of the official army, only Guo Liang was in the peace of Shouyongping, and the official army came to attack several times, not to mention the siege of Beiping for a long time.
Zhu Zhi, as one of the kings of the Nine Sides, of course, also guarded against the rebel siege, he just didn't expect the rebels to break the outermost water city so quickly, but fortunately, when he retreated, he had already taken a large number of weapons that could be taken away.
Of course, he still had a lot of supplies left unfortified before the rebels filled the moat, which ensured that he had plenty of supplies to use in the back.
Both sides can be said to be fully prepared, as a large number of rebel troops dispersed to both sides of the city gate, a cloud ladder appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the siege of Jingzhou officially began.
"Boom" the guns of the officers and soldiers on this side continued, and the shouts of killing shook the sky to strengthen morale.
They have lost all their artillery, so now they rely on firearms such as bowl-mouth guns, guns, flying rockets, and a nest of fronts.
When guarding the water city before, the heavyweight firearms were too late to be withdrawn, and the bowls brought back were relatively light.
As a result, the power of their firearms has been reduced considerably.
But fortunately, the rebel army is now very close, and the city gate of the two sides is only less than 30 steps apart, and the rebel army must come out of the city gate, so the firearms of the official army are concentrated on the city gate.
But the rebels must have seen this, and after the first wave of soldiers and horses were hit, the successors ran out with sandbags, and then stacked them on the ground, and many of them came out with shields to protect themselves first.
Arrows rained down on the officers and soldiers, and firearms rang out, but before a quarter of an hour, a new wall was built in front of the rebels.
The rebel army should have made preparations last night, made a lot of shield carts in the late Ming Dynasty with carts, and filled in the height, and after pushing out the city gate, they piled up sandbags, and in less than a quarter of an hour, they formed a defensive line and blocked the city gate.
After this shield protected the city gate, people inside finally began to run out carrying the ladder, and waves of people carrying the ladder and the siege soldiers appeared one after another.
Bian Jun and Zhou Kun also made full preparations, and they got a lot of bows last night, in Zhou Kun's words, the more bows they had, the fewer bows they had to defend the city.
Almost a dozen of them had a bow in their hands, which occupied a lot of resources, and then they fished at the head of the city, shot an arrow casually, and then squatted down to rest.
The archers already needed to rest, otherwise their hands would hurt if they shot too much, and for a while, no one on the scene actually cared about them.
But just now a hundred households said right, the beginning of the rebel army from the brick city shot a small number of arrows, and after the official siege of the city, there are arrows and firearms on the opposite side and under the city.
The head of the city is really raining arrows.
"Mother's." Someone just got up and shot an arrow blindly, then squatted back to Zhou Kun's side, and whispered: "King Han doesn't know if he got this letter, this arrow is really special." ”
The corners of Zhou Kun's mouth twitched, thinking that it was really hard to say, but even if the King of Han got the letter, it would definitely rain arrows, because the King of Han did not know whether it was true or false, and at the same time, he had to ensure that the soldiers who were besieging the city were covered.
"Being a soldier and fighting and taking money to sell your life, this is our duty, don't panic, if you die in battle, King Han will not treat our family badly."
Everyone smiled bitterly, the key to death was in the hands of their own people.
But Zhou Kun said again, there is no way back now, let's follow the destiny of heaven.
I speak.
There was a loud bang around the "horn", and a ladder was set up to their battlement.
Several people's eyes lit up, and they quickly looked down at their left arm, their left arm was tied with a red scarf, the red scarf was not thick, so it was not obvious, but it could definitely be seen at close range, this is to prove that they are people.
"Arise, arise, all arise, they have come up." There was a hundred households walking around the scene holding a shield.
These hundred households are also quite strong, and there are several arrows stuck in his body, but he holds a shield in one hand and a knife in the other.
When dang dang, the arrows on the opposite side kept falling on his shield, and after a while, his shield was densely inserted.
Flutter, and an arrow hit him in the middle.
His whole body trembled, his teeth squeaked in pain, but he didn't go down, he was still screaming, they all got up, and the rebels came up.
Horn click, horn click, in front of the west gate, within a hundred steps, more than a dozen ladders have been set up.
A ladder was placed about every two meters or so, and the rebel army began to be attached to the ants.
The officers and soldiers got up one after another, but the arrows and firearms outside were non-stop, and some people had just emerged.
Flutter flutter, several arrows were shot at the body.
Another man hurried to take the replacement, and this man held a shield in one hand and quickly glanced at the ladder, where someone was climbing up below.
He turned and crouched down, and took something, like a grenade in later generations, but mostly with a flint, and threw it at the bottom of the ladder.
"Whew" that thing didn't explode, but a ball of fire just dispersed.
"Ahh
This thing is a bit similar to the petrol bomb of later generations, but it is relatively large, and the officers and soldiers have to hold it with both hands.
It was stuffed with flammable materials such as cotton wool and oilcloth, and then wrapped in sheepskin with a lot of fierce fire oil, threw it down and burst open, and the fierce fire oil spread to all sides with the fire.
Originally, the lethality was much smaller than that of a gasoline bomb, but now it is March, the weather is slightly cold, and everyone has more clothes.
Zhou Kun gestured with his eyes at this time, more than a dozen people went to the bottom of a cloud ladder every two people, accounting for a total of six cloud ladders, and a partner in the middle was shot by an arrow from the opposite side, and he was down, and the corners of Zhou Kun's mouth twitched.
They continued to fish, got up and shot arrows, then dodged, waited a while and then got up and shot indiscriminately, and then crouched down again.
And watch from time to time where the rebel army has attacked? How many people have gone up the ladder and approached the battlement?
On the other side, Bian Jun and his younger brother were under a cloud ladder, and next to him was a big iron pot, which had already boiled the pot full of oil.
There were several officers and soldiers on the scene, all of whom were knocked down by arrows or firearms from the opposite side, and there were a few young men doing it at this time, and these young men were not professional, Bian Jun looked at one of the young men and dug a spoonful with a big scoop, but he didn't dare to get up, and he closed his eyes and sprinkled down.
There are still a lot of rebel soldiers and horses in the city, and there is a scream immediately, and someone should have been sprinkled.
Bian Jun rolled his eyes, and deliberately said sharply: "What are you splashing blindly, stand up and watch the splash." ”
The young man glanced at him, hesitated, dug the spoon again, and then slowly got up, looking to see.
Whoosh, an arrow from the opposite side swept through his ear, almost hit.
"Did I drip?" Qing Zhuang sat on the ground in fright, and the spoonful of hot oil in his hand fell over to himself.
"Ah," Qingzhuang suddenly screamed.
The souls of other young men on the side flew into the sky, and a young man threw away the guy in his hand, got up and wanted to run backwards.
Unexpectedly, just after running a few steps, he threw an arrow from under the city wall, which entered through the battlement and shot him in the back.
"Ahh
There were fierce battles everywhere in front of the West Gate, and both armies were struggling, and the scene was extremely tragic.
Bian Jun was looking darkly, and suddenly someone not far away shouted at him: "Bian Jun, come here." ”
Bian Jun looked back and saw that it was his own boss, a hundred households surnamed Xu.
The whole army of their hundred households was arranged here, and they guarded it with the soldiers and horses of the guard.
The top boss called him, and Bian Jun couldn't help it, so he hurriedly squatted and walked over.
"Dog stuff, they're all up, get up." Xu Baihu watched it angrily and funny.
This will make the rebel army already attack the city with all their might, almost all of them are standing up, fighting against the rain of arrows on the opposite side, because there are arrow stacks to protect, so the probability of hitting the arrow will also be reduced, and then it depends on luck.
"Xu Baihu, the little one is an archer." Bian Jun held up his bow and smiled bitterly.
"Do you know how to shoot arrows?" Xu Baihu was inexplicably wonderful, remembering that Bian Jun hadn't shot arrows much before, but he couldn't care so much now.
"The arrows and firearms on the opposite side are too fierce, and the siege is fierce, you go down there and call the reserves up again." Xu Baihu pointed to the city, in order to maintain combat effectiveness, Zhu Zhi divided the soldiers and horses guarding the city into several waves, and they had already lost a lot in this first wave.
Bian Jun was overjoyed when he heard it, and it was good to leave the city: "The little one obeys the order." ”
He quickly picked up a shield from the ground, and ran cautiously down the wall, and when he reached the bottom, he breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that he had escaped death.
Behind the city gate, a large number of soldiers and young men gathered on the street and all around, many people looked a little panicked, the scene was also a little chaotic, the ground and houses, there were arrows flying here everywhere.
Bian Jun wanted to go back slowly, and deliberately shook the street to delay time, but a hundred households dozens of steps away shouted: "Who let you come down?" Are you from that battalion? ”
The hundred households said that Bian Jun was a little far away from the first time, and he didn't hear what he said, but he saw that the hundred households were talking to him, and hurriedly ran forward.
After running closer, the hundred households spoke again, and then they understood.
Bian Jun hurriedly said: "Xu Baihu asked the little one to come down and ask for support." ”
"Can't stand it so soon? How long has this been going on? The hundred households were surprised.
"The rebels of the Han king's -—— attack are very fierce, and arrows rain down-——"
As Bian Jun was speaking, the hundred households suddenly glared behind him, and then ran to the left.
Bian Jun turned around inexplicably.
Whew, I saw a stone bullet above my head, and after crossing the city, it flew towards me like a meteor.
"Mother, my glory and wealth?" Bian Jun was still thinking about the great work after breaking the city, and when he pounced, the stone bullet hit him right in the chest.
Boom, there was a soft sound at the scene, and Bian Jun's whole person was smashed into a pile of mud.
