Chapter 1837 : Zhang Wen's Move

The city was suddenly ablaze.

At this moment, Zhang Wen suddenly discovered that soldiers and horses were surging under the city. At this time, the full moon was in the night sky, and the silver-white moonlight illuminated the surroundings clearly. Zhang Wen saw that the Tatars not far from the city were rushing.

Retreating, the crowd of tens of thousands quickly made way for a small path. Zhang Wen squinted his eyes, put his hands behind his back, stared at the surging Tatars, and shouted in his heart: "What the hell are you doing?"

After a while, the path opened wider and wider, and a man walked out of the crowded crowd. The man lowered his head and couldn't see clearly. What was surprising was that he was actually dressed in Ming army uniforms and was covered by the people behind him.

A group of young generals were pushing and shoving and walking along the path that the Tatars had left to the foot of Lanzhou City.

Zhang Wenyu looked more and more strange. He stared at the man for a long time. Since he couldn't see his face and didn't know who it was, he just felt that this Tatar was very strange. When it was dark, he suddenly heard someone on the tower say: "

General, is it General Yu——?"

Zhang Wen was shocked: "Yu Guang, what is he doing here? Why is he in the Tatar camp?" He didn't know that Yu Guang was defeated by Wang Baobao at Malantan and Yu Guang was captured. All this happened in Lanzhou City

Naturally, Zhang Wen didn't know that before him, there was a big battle outside Lanzhou City. He originally pinned all his hopes on Guang's rescue. Now that he saw Yu Guang, he probably understood a little bit.

Under the city, Yu Guang walked to the city tower without saying a word. It was not until he saw the city gate that Yu Guang raised his head, smiled at the soldiers on the city gate, and said: "Brothers, I'm sorry, I was arrested by them.

Now, you must hold on to the city, General Xu (Xuda) will arrive soon with his army."

"This -?" Wang Baobao, who heard Yu Guang's words clearly from a distance, was stunned when he heard this, and then became furious and shouted: "Kill him, kill him!"

The Tatar next to him had long been unhappy with Yu Guang. If the coach hadn't said that he was useful, he would have been treated harshly. Now that he heard Wang Baobao's shouts, he couldn't be polite. He drew out the single sword from his waist, raised the sword with his hand, and dropped it.

The great man's head was chopped off.

"General Yu——?" The 30,000 Ming troops on the city wall saw all this clearly. Everyone shouted loudly, and many people even burst into tears.

Zhang Wen sighed softly, and then cursed: "What a bastard Tatar!"

At this time, Wang Baobao saw that there was no hope of persuasion and was very angry. Taking advantage of the sadness of the Ming army on the city wall, he quickly mobilized a large army, each with a shield, set up a ladder and stormed the Lanzhou city.

The soldiers in Lanzhou City witnessed Yu Guang's death with their own eyes, and they were already holding back a sense of hatred in their hearts. They were not polite at this moment. They threw down their muskets, bows, arrows, and thunderbolts, but those under the city were all Wang Baobao's elite soldiers.

Master, who has followed Wang Baobao in the north and south for many years, and is the best at attacking and massacring cities. Now

They had already been guarding the front with shields. Thousands of people formed a formation under the city. The thick shields were guarding the front, covering their heads airtight. The shields were made of iron and were extremely hard. They could only hear "

"Dang-dang-dang" made a non-stop sound, which was very good at blocking the flying arrows and rocks that came like a storm.

The Ming army on the city wall obviously did not expect that the Tatars had this trick. They just gave up their arrows and used firearms and fire blunderbuss to bombard them. The firearms were very powerful. Although they killed many Tatars, those Tatars were

This Tatar was not afraid of life and death and came very quickly. Someone came to take over the Tatar who had just fallen, and he was unable to retreat for a while.

The Tatars relied on the shields in front to set up ladders and Luban chariots. The army from behind swept in one after another, climbed up the ladders and rushed to the top of the city.

Zhang Wen looked at these Mongolian Tatars, all of whom were strong and vigorous, climbing the ladders and climbing the city as if they were on the ground. As long as they climbed to the top of the city, they would engage in a hand-to-hand melee with the enemy. With the current strength of the troops, the Lanzhou city would probably not be saved. Now it is gone.

With no reinforcements on our way, we have no choice but to imitate the Chu Overlords of the past and risk their lives to fight!"

Guarded by shields, the Ming army on the city wall had limited lethality. These Tatars were not afraid at all. At that time, hundreds of Tatar soldiers, relying on their strong skills, climbed to the top of the city wall. Zhang Wen carried a machete and walked away

He stepped forward, swung the machete, and

He killed the first Tatar soldier who climbed up with his sword, and then kicked the ladder over with his kick. Only a scream was heard, and the kicked Tatar fell into the city. The Lanzhou city wall was several feet high, and those Tatars

He fell to the ground and vomited a mouthful of blood, then died.

The soldiers on the city tower were inspired, and they immediately waved their swords and shouted: "Kill all the Mongolian Tatars to avenge the general, kill all the Mongolian masters, avenge -?" The shouts of killing were like thunder, and quickly swallowed up all the shouts around him.

Killing sound.

Wang Baobao did not expect that the little Zhang Wen could be so capable and constantly urged the Tatars to attack the city.

Zhang Wen killed several more Tatars, and looked up at the Tatar army surging under the city. He knew that if this continued, sooner or later Lanzhou City would be unable to stand it any longer. Seeing that there were more and more Tatars, the people on the city towers

Although the soldiers rely on the city

Strong, with sharp weapons, we risked our lives to fight fiercely with the enemy, but after all, the enemy was outnumbered and we lost the opportunity to face the continuous influx of enemies. Seeing that the city was about to be unable to withstand it, I didn't know what to do for a while.

good.

At this moment, Zhu Yourun came over with a big knife in hand and a face full of blood. He cupped his fists and said: "General, this shield is strong. Although it is not afraid of firearms and arrows, it is most afraid of oil and water. Now the oil soup prepared by your Excellency has been

Burning and boiling, it can be utilized!"

When he heard it was "oil soup!" Zhang Wen slapped his thigh and said, "I am really confused, I have forgotten this!" At that moment, he hurriedly summoned ten guards from the city and asked each of them to go to the tower to get ten pieces of soup.

A lantern was lit, as a command, and then the soldiers were told to fetch boiling oil soup from the cauldron to fight against the enemy.

At this time, the oil soup was boiling on its own and was packed in wooden barrels. The soldiers listened to the order and saw ten yellow lanterns lighting up at the same time. The soldiers who had been prepared poured the barrels of boiling oil soup from the barrel at the same time.

It was splashed all over the city.

Although the shield is extremely hard and invulnerable, even the boulders are not afraid at all, but after all, one thing falls after another, and the most afraid of grease is that the fallen oil soup flows down the gaps in the shield, and in this way, the soup is boiling

Grease flows into the shield and onto the Tatar soldier

, screams were immediately heard, and many soldiers lost their shields, but the oil soup was not as good as water. Once it got on it, the soup was really severe. If it was said that it could be tolerated on the back and arms, but once it dripped

If it enters the face or eyeballs, it will be fatal.

The soldiers under the shields did not expect that the opponent was so vicious. Countless Tatars lost their shields due to wounds in the soup, and the formation was immediately chaotic. The archers and fire gunmen on the city wall took advantage of the chaos to shoot and kill, and those who were killed by the arrows were killed.

There are countless Mongol Tatar troops, that is

Those Tatar soldiers who climbed onto the city wall were also beheaded and thrown off the city wall. The morale of the Tatar army suddenly dropped. Wang Baobao gritted his teeth and saw countless soldiers being scalded to death by the boiling oil soup. He knew that there was no hope of breaking the city today.

The trumpet had to be blown.
