The sound of firecrackers sounded, and the wall suddenly became a mess.

The first reaction of the temporarily arranged Minzhuang and the archers was to squat down with their heads in their hands, and everyone trembled like chaff.

"Don't mess around, don't be afraid!" Zhang Jingxian stood on the city wall and shouted.

With the experience of the last time the bandits disturbed the city, he was now much calmer than these ordinary people.

Chen Hua also reacted at this time, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't mess around, it's just a firecracker, you can't go far!" ”

Only then did everyone react, yes, the fire gun, you can't get up after a hundred steps, listen to the sound, the person who fired the fire gun is still far away.

Thinking of this, although everyone is still scared in their hearts, they will finally not be like just now.

But just as everyone had recovered and their heads poked out of the wall, suddenly, a flash of fire flashed in the darkness in the distance, and in an instant, the sound of gunpowder explosion sounded.

Everyone hurriedly shrank their heads, but in the next second, a hysterical cry sounded on the city wall: "Uncle, uncle, who will save my uncle, he was hit in the head by a bird!" ”

When Xu He heard this, he hurriedly bent down and lowered his head and rushed over, only to see a young man hit in the face by a projectile, and the wound was gurgling and bleeding.

He screamed in pain, his open mouth covered in blood and broken teeth.

"It's not a bird!" Xu He was stunned.

When the enemy had just launched, he also looked out of the city, and at first, the fire was at least two hundred steps away from the city wall, which was definitely not the range that Great Wei's current firearms could reach.

"It's a firearm of the Franc man!" Chen Hua thought of the words of Wakou Wanbo and exclaimed.

"Be careful, don't show your head too much!" Chen Hua shouted again.

At this moment, the crowd was even more frightened, and they dared to look again, and they all shrank back.

Zhang Jingxian was so angry that he almost jumped up when he saw this: "Chen County Order, you give me down!" ”

Chen Hua also knew that what he said recklessly affected the morale of the army, and he walked down the city wall with a face full of shame.

At this time, Zhang Jingxian instructed his soldiers: "The Japanese will come up soon, quickly, bring our firearms." ”

Xu He didn't dare to delay in Dongcheng, he walked quickly to Zhang Jingxian's side and said, "Lord Bingxian, I'm going to Beicheng!" ”

Zhang Jingxian looked at him deeply and said, "Be careful, these gangs are not simple!" ”

Xu He nodded and hurriedly ran towards Beicheng.

As soon as they arrived in Beicheng, they saw Qin Lie, Zhou Bi and others looking towards Dongcheng in a panic, and the soldiers were also extremely frightened, but they were much stronger than the village warriors and archers who had never been trained, at least everyone had not left their posts without permission, holding the knives in their hands one by one, squatting under the wall and listening carefully to the movements outside the city.

Qin Lie had already made arrangements for this, every twenty or so steps, there were soldiers to observe the movement outside the city, most of the people squatted down and silenced, no noise, and those who walked and talked were all hacked to death!

Xu He saw that his side was in order, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He turned his head to Xiao Er and said: "Xiao Er, you lead the knife and the thirteen of them, go in person, and take the monkey and the others, if there is resistance, kill them!" ”

Xiao Er's face was tense, and he crossed his hands and said, "Yes!" ”

As soon as he left, Zhou Bi said, "Childe, what kind of monkey?" ”

Xu He told Xiao Er what he had discovered.

"These people sneakily came to Beicheng, originally I didn't want to touch them, but now that the Japanese have launched, no matter what these people are doing, they must eliminate the hidden dangers!"

Zhou Bi nodded and said, "Childe is thoughtful!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a lot of noise in the eastern city.

Suddenly, the fire on the city wall exploded, and Xu He was startled.

Look at the size of the fire, as if something was being launched outside the city, and with the firelight, there was an explosion.

Seeing this, Qin Lie said: "The Japanese are coming up, this is a thief gun, I am on Taihu Lake, and I have seen the officials and soldiers use it." ”

"Thief Gun?"

Qin Lie explained: "This thing is made of iron, the tube is three feet long, and it has a handle of two feet, and it can hit thieves more than 300 steps away after firing, but it is basically harmless to people at 200 steps, and the best distance is about 100 steps." ”

A hundred steps, Xu He nodded.

A hundred steps from the city wall can be said to be very close.

Just now he was on the east city, and the firelight he saw was two hundred steps away, and the Japanese came up.

At this time, in the east city, the sound of explosions and shouting and scolding came from afar, which made everyone in the north city feel uneasy.

Xu He called a soldier to go to Dongcheng to check the situation.

Soon after the man was gone, the pig went up to the city with a hideous face.

Seeing his appearance, Xu He hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

The pig seemed to be immersed in some terrible scene, panting, and after a while, he said, "We killed them all!" The corpse of a family was found in a private house, along with fire oil in a clay pot! ”

"Sure enough!" Xu He smashed his fist on the city wall, "These people are the spies of the Japanese Bandits!" ”

Zhou Bi said: "Childe, it seems that Wan Bo is right, there is a feint attack on the east side of the city, and we are the point chosen by the thieves to break the city!" The Japanese are too cunning, so they don't feel at ease when Wan Bo and those people sneak into the city, so they find some people with local accents to enter the city! ”

When Xu He heard this, he said to Qin Lie: "Prepare quickly, the Japanese will attack at any time!" ”

Qin Lie clenched his fists, for fear of causing commotion in other parts of the city wall, so he called Daozi and others to station in various sections of the city wall.

When Xiao Er heard this, he suppressed the fear after the murder just now, and hurriedly left.

Qin Lie leaned on the battlement wall on the city tower and glanced out of the dark city before retracting his head, he took the bow from behind his back, and then pulled out an arrow with an arrow that was a cloth ball and dipped it in fire oil on the side, and after igniting it, an arrow shot out of the city.

When the bright rocket drew an arc in the night sky and gradually fell, a scene that made Xu He's pupils dilate appeared.

I saw a dozen teams like long snakes standing under the city, and when they saw the rockets, the people in those teams looked up one after another.

"Wako ......" didn't know who it was, and exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone saw this scene that they will never forget!

Qin Lie scolded: "It's here! ”

With a wave of his hand, the drums sounded on the city wall.

In the darkness of the night outside the city, there was a sudden eruption of chaos, like the howl of wild beasts in the forest at night.

Soon, there was an explosion of "bang", and the chopping wall where Xu He stayed was hit by the firearm projectiles of the Japanese Kou, and in an instant, stone chips flew.

Ding Ze, who had just settled down at home and rushed to the city wall, saw this, and pressed Xu He's head with one hand: "Childe, it's dangerous, you retreat to the city tower!" ”

Xu He pushed him away and scolded, "What are you afraid of? Lao Tzu has already died once! ”

Ding Ze looked at Xu He inexplicably, unable to figure out what he meant by dying once.

But Xu He's actions shocked everyone present.

Xu Gongzi, a [high-minded] old man on weekdays is not afraid, we are still afraid of an egg.

Qin Lie was encouraged, took out a knife from his waist and shouted: "Damn, brothers, don't be cowardly, let's let the son take a look today, let the officials and masters see, it's all a group practice, we are much stronger than the group of soft eggs in the guard!" ”
