The fourth year of the empress, the fifth day of the eighth month.

It rained heavily for two days in a row, and to this day, the rain has not stopped.

Late at night, the one-armed tall Dajun sat on the steps in front of the gate of the city tower, listening to the crackling rain outside, holding a flintlock pistol in his hand, and watching carefully.

It's this thing, it shoots farther than a bow and arrow, and is more powerful than a bow and arrow.

Beidi, who was frightened outside the city, did not dare to attack rashly in the past few days.

Looking at the flintlock pistol in his hand, Gao Dajun couldn't put it down.

Having been a soldier all his life, he knows the importance of weapons and equipment to soldiers.

The Weizi battalion to which he belongs is the trump card of the Xu family's army, every time they fight the most difficult battle, their task is also the most arduous, the high battle loss rate is terrifying, and the brothers around him have changed one after another.

Gao Dajun was thinking, if they had this kind of weapon in their hands, wouldn't they have to die so many brothers in the difficult battles before?

The answer is yes.

In these two days, he learned to use a flintlock pistol.

He was surprised to find that this thing was very easy to use, even ordinary people who had never touched a blade before and had never been on the battlefield could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy after practicing for a while!

And the combat effectiveness is very strong!

He tried to raise the flintlock pistol in his hand with his remaining arm, the butt of the rifle against his chest, his cheek against the cold flintlock pistol, and turned a blind eye to the dark and rainy night ahead.

Then there is a thumping sound in the mouth.

The void fired a shot, and Gao Dajun slowly put down the flintlock pistol, but the gaze that fell on the dark and rainy night outside the city did not immediately retract.

The perennial military career, in life and death, has made him develop a keen sense of danger.

A certain moment.

He sensed something was wrong.

He couldn't say what was wrong, he just felt furious and a little panicked.

Between heaven and earth, the rain became heavier and heavier, blending with the darkness of the night.

Outside the city, there was nothing but the sound of crackling rain.

Taking a deep breath, Gao Dajun got up from the steps and took a few steps forward, and soon came to the edge of the city wall, he opened his eyes wide and tried to look out of the city.

It was too dark to see anything clearly.

However, there was a lot of fire in the Beidi camp in the distance.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, the sound of breaking wind pierced through the rain curtain.

A soldier standing guard on the city wall was shot to the ground before he could make a sound.

Gao Dajun looked startled, and hurriedly ran to check.

I saw that the soldier had a crossbow bolt stuck in his head, which hit him in the forehead.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

Immediately after, a series of breaking wind sounded.

Several more soldiers standing guard on the walls fell.

Gao Dajun secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and hurriedly shouted:

"Enemy attack!"

"Beidi touched it in the night!"

"Enemy attack! Alert, all on alert! ”

As Gao Dajun continued to shout, several generals in the city tower rushed out together and hurriedly asked what was going on.

"Under the city, Beidi under the city has touched it!" Gao Dajun pointed to the city and shouted urgently.

Everyone looked outside the city, it was pitch black outside, and they couldn't see anything clearly, but the crossbow arrows that shot at the head of the city from time to time indicated that Beidi had launched a sneak attack at night!

"Flares!"

"Five flares!!"

"Quick!"

The captain of the musket battalion shouted.

Five flares quickly rose into the air, and when they reached the predetermined altitude, the incandescent light instantly exploded, illuminating the entire pitch-black night sky, reflecting as if it were day.

The crowd, who had never seen the flares, suddenly noticed that it was dawning, and they all opened their mouths wide and looked at the suns that appeared above their heads in amazement.

"Look!"

"Beidi, Beidi really touched it!"

"Many, many!"

On the city wall, someone shouted in panic.

I saw that on the muddy and rain-soaked flat ground outside the city, countless Beidi soldiers were already less than a hundred steps away from the city wall, and they had never seen a flare, so they were stunned for a moment, looking at the place where the dazzling light was shining in the sky.

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

The Beidi generals were the first to react, pulled out the scimitar at their waists, and ordered the army to attack.

Under the suppression of Beidi's wave of arrows, the Daji soldiers on the city wall did not dare to poke their heads out.

Knock knock!

The drum of warning sounded.

The Daji soldiers in the city all woke up at once, hurriedly grabbed the weapons at hand, and rushed out of the camp.

Gao Dajun dodged the rain of arrows that came up, and at the same time commanded the soldiers to go up to the city wall to defend: "Hurry up, kill the enemy for Lao Tzu!" ”

"Over there, over there!"

"Quick, you must not let Di Gou climb the city wall, hold it, and give it to Lao Tzu to guard!"

In the face of the enemy's sudden sneak attack, although Gao Dajun was a little anxious, he still commanded the defense on the city wall in an orderly manner.

But at this moment, in Qingyuan County, behind him, there were suddenly several explosions.

"Enemy, the enemy has entered the city through the tunnel!"

"Authentically?" Gao Dajun couldn't believe his ears, and hurriedly looked into the city behind him.

The whole city has been in chaos, and a large number of Beidi soldiers have appeared in the city along the tunnel, and they are fighting fiercely with their own side!

"Damn!"

Gao Dajun sighed angrily.

The belly and back are affected by the enemy, and this battle is difficult.

"Fry it for Lao Tzu! Grenades, quick, throw them down! In the city, Xu Biao stood at the entrance of the cave with a large horse splitting knife in his hand, cutting off the bodies of the three Beidi soldiers who tried to crawl out of the tunnel, and roared.

The soldier behind him hurriedly pulled the fuse of the grenade and threw it into the hole, and after a few breaths, "Boom......!" There was a loud bang, and the grenade exploded in the hole, and the Beidi soldiers in the hole were blurred with flesh and blood.

"Quick, throw it again!"

Countless grenades were thrown into the hole, and with a few loud bangs, the hole was blown up at once.

After solving a hole, Xu Biao took people and immediately rushed to the next hole.

Gao Dajun looked at it, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.

What's that?

How powerful is it than a flintlock pistol!

Outside the city.

Yeluwu squinted her eyes when she saw the flares rising in the sky.

She didn't know what it was, but she was sure it was another new weapon from the Aki.

She stood in the distance and saw that the Beidi soldiers were storming the city wall, and the Daji soldiers on the city wall were desperately resisting.

And the sound of explosions in the city from time to time made Yelu Wu full of uncertainty about the success of this night attack.

How many new weapons are there in the hands of Daji!
