Chapter 279: Ambush
"Sure enough...... It's oil! ”
Ma Fengsun yelled in his heart that it was not good. Fishing nets were used to entangle the boats, and then the river was sealed with kerosene......
This...... This is the intention to burn them all to death in the river in this urn city!
"Paddle! Fast! ”
"Get out of the watergate!"
Ma Fengsun yelled, in fact, there was no need for him to say that the ships behind him near the Panmen Water Gate had already used the stern as the bow and the bow as the stern, intending to exit the water gate upside down. However, I don't know how much oil was poured into the water, and the fire was so fierce that the boats were entangled in the fishing nets underneath, and despite all their strength, the burning ships were still unable to move.
On the city wall, under the command of the two princes, the rain of arrows was still pouring down the river as if they didn't want money. A group of panicked Japanese people and the remnants of the Zhang family were shot down in the burning river. Others braved the flames and jumped into the river in a vain attempt to force their way ashore.
However, it was only in vain, and at some point on the shore, a circle of heavily armed Ming troops had appeared, and a group of Suzhou guards were desperately guarding the position near the shore. Even if one or two people were lucky enough to swim to the shore, he would only be greeted by a forest of Ming spears......
Panmen Urn City instantly became a purgatory of flames. Many Japanese and remnants of the Zhang clan did not even touch the corners of the defenders' clothes, and they died on this river one by one.
Dead, worthless.
"It's over." Ma Fengsun's heart was desolate. He has changed three ships, and this one is already the fourth. But even if it continues, I am afraid that today I will not escape the fate of being buried on this river. When his heart was sad, he raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, swim with the old man, kill one Ming dog is enough, kill two Ming dogs to make a ......lot of money."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a cold in his throat, and he couldn't say the rest of the words.
With a sharp arrow stuck in his throat at some point......
"What a fierce thief. At this time, I still want to resist stubbornly...... "The city tower was hidden on the eaves in the dark, Zhu Su held a telescope, and confirmed that Ma Fengsun, who was the head of the thief, fell into the water after being pierced through the throat by an arrow, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This improvised fire oil is not oil after all, in fact, by now, the fire on the river has almost been extinguished. If these thieves lead people to rush to the death and swim together, under the cold of the negligent Suzhou Wei, maybe there will really be flaws......
This is also the reason why he let Cao Yuan's troops, who are available to the army, guard the riverbank.
"Dog, good archery." Zhu Su patted the dog holding the big bow beside him. The dog hurriedly lowered his head, but his face couldn't help but show joy. Now he is more than a head taller than Zhu Su. Regardless of the infinite strength, from the last time he was ordered to attack with the cavalry of the Qin King's guards, Zhu Su noticed his archery skills.
At that time, he thought about using the dog's archery skills...... As a traverser, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally snipers and decapitation operations.
Hiding in the shadows to snipe enemy generals, this is a man's romance! It is also the most effective way to weaken the enemy's fighting spirit.
So Zhu Su tried his hand and let Zhu Fan and Zhu Di preside over the overall situation, anyway, what should be arranged was also arranged, just let the archers of Suzhou Wei release the arrows.
And he took the dog to find a high place, used the binoculars to find the general who gave the order, and then sniped with a bow and arrow.
"Surrender! We surrender ......" Sure enough, when Ma Fengsun fell into the river, someone on the river immediately shouted. "I'm waiting for my wish to surrender and take my life!"
The Ming army has a tradition of not killing and surrendering, and sure enough, the rain of arrows on the city wall was slowed down when they heard it, and the soldiers all looked at Zhu Fan and Yang Lu over there.
Yang Lu looked at Zhu Zhang, and Zhu Fan was still hesitating, but Zhu Di had already stepped forward and said loudly: "Continue to release arrows!" Don't stop! ”
"Don't let these thieves come to the shore! Shoot them all to death in this urn! ”
Zhu Di knew very well that among these thieves, there were not only the remnants of the Zhang family, but also a large number of widows. Even if the remnants of the Zhang clan surrendered sincerely, if the archery was stopped and the flames on the river dissipated, Suzhou Wei would probably have to meet the frontal attack of the Japanese people.
It's okay to stand in a safe place and shoot arrows into the river, with the level of Suzhou Wei, can you withstand the wolf-like wolf?
Zhu Su also heard Zhu Di's quick decision, and nodded approvingly: With the fourth brother here, there is no problem with these turtles in these urns in the city gate.
Now it's time for the remaining thieves outside the city to take care of it.
……
Outside the city, the river.
The moment he saw the city gate closed, Zhang Li's heart had already sensed a hint of something wrong. When it was originally dark and silent, a fire suddenly appeared, and Zhang Li was even more frightened.
Hit the trick!
"Everyone, turn around and go back immediately!" After being entangled for a moment between the two options of forcibly attacking the city to rescue his troops and retreating and fleeing, Zhang Li immediately chose the latter. Coincidentally, the flagship of the Uida clan over there also immediately chose to retreat, and everyone on the boat rowed their oars as if they had fled, returning in the direction they had come.
"Whew...... It seems to be ...... for the time being. It's safe. "The city seems to be busy ambushing the men and boats that have entered the city, and they have no time to pay attention to their ships. Watching the majestic Panmen Tower drift away, Zhang Li breathed a sigh of relief. While he was glad that he had just heard Ma Fengsun's words and did not enter the city first, he wondered why those people in the city had already known that they would attack the city tonight, but they did not directly set up an ambush at the city gate.
Suzhou does not have many troops, and it is risky to let people into the city after all......
"Zhang Jun." Just thinking like this, the big Ida clan over there also jumped on Zhang Li's boat. "It seems that there has been an ambush in the city of Suzhou for a long time......"
"It's just strange, why didn't they ambush us outside the city, if they were ambushed outside the city, they wouldn't have to waste those Zhou chapters, they could directly scare us back......"
"I'm thinking about it too." Zhang Li, who was calm, stroked his chin. "Maybe they take the risk of eating as much as they want."
"Perhaps, I'm still wondering if I can trick the two of us into the city......"
"That King Wu of the Ming Dynasty is so bold." Ota looked back at the firelight inside the pan door, and the horizontal flesh on his face twitched slightly in pain. "But in this way, although we are not yet broken, we can no longer continue to attack the city......
"Zhang Jun, next, we should scatter and loot everywhere to see if we can recover some losses."
"Ida-kun......" Zhang Li hurriedly retained. The city of Suzhou was empty, and Zhu Su'er knew that we were going to take the city, but he didn't dare to plan and set up an ambush under the city to fight a decisive battle with us. This shows that they have no choice! ”
"Let's hold on a little longer. There must still be a chance. Otherwise, let my men try to forcibly attack the city at dawn......"
He was a little panicked, if he didn't seize this opportunity to seize a city and gain a firm foothold, his Zhang family would definitely disappear next......
"Zhang Jun." Ota was a little upset. "This is the place of Daming, and Suzhou is the big city of Daming. Even if there are not many Ming troops in the city of Suzhou, it will be difficult for us to break through this city. ”
"Earlier, you said that the king of Wu in the city was just a child, so I believed your words and brought my warriors to try to attack the city......"
"But now, that King Wu is not an ordinary child at all......"
"Ida-kun!" Zhang Li still wanted to keep it, but the Onida clan resolutely refused. It was by relying on the freedom to come and go that they could gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Ming army. The delay here for nearly ten days already made him feel very dangerous.
What if the reinforcements of the Ming army blocked them here?
was arguing, and suddenly the rumbling war drums came from the ears of the two. A soldier who rowed a small boat from the boat in front of him climbed onto the deck and reported to Zhang Li with a crying voice:
"Second son, ahead...... Front. ”
"Countless Ming warships!"
