"When did it happen?" Li Xiao suddenly jumped up, and everyone in the room also stood up. Just now he said that with the help of red-haired people, it would be difficult to defend Jinzhou City. Now, he actually heard the Tatars

News of the attack on Jinzhou City.

How can this not be shocking!

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, Tanma saw the Tatar team this morning. When I left Jinzhou, I could already see the Tatar flag.

Master Yuan said that he must not forget his agreement. He will defend Jinzhou City to the death, and also asked the commander-in-chief to send reinforcements as soon as possible." The captain who followed Li Hu in said in a panic.

Li Xiao came in in a hurry, and then he saw clearly that the person who came in was actually Wu Sangui. Listening to his words, when he left Jinzhou to report the news, the Tatars had not yet begun to attack the city.

In other words, the Tatars would start attacking the city at noon at the earliest. In the past, Li Xiao still had some confidence in Yuan Chonghuan, but now that the Dutch have joined, Li Xiao's confidence is not that strong. After all, no matter how strong the city wall is,

It cannot withstand the bombardment of artillery.

But Li Xiao was also puzzled, how could he get from Bayuquan to Jinzhou in just three days? There was hundreds of miles of land in between, and he had to unload the ship and cross the Liao River. How could it happen on a broken road like Liaodong?

Did it.

There is no time to think about how the Dutch can reach Jinzhou in three days. The problem now is to rush to Jinzhou as soon as possible.

"Huzi, take a boat to Juehua Island to find your second brother now. Tell him to rush to the outskirts of Jinzhou Port tomorrow morning. If the Tatars attack the city, use artillery support..."

"Don't panic, your general. When something big happens, if you panic, the people below will panic even more. Sit down, the emergency of the war is not at this moment." Sun Chengzong stood up and patted Li Xiao on the shoulder to signal.

Li Xiao sat down.

Seeing the panicked faces of other people in the room, Li Xiao immediately calmed down. Sun Chengzong was right, he was the leader. If he panicked, the people below would also panic.

Panic is contagious and will spread in the army faster than the plague. Some things that are usually no problem may go wrong if you panic.

After taking a look at Sun Chengzong, I saw that the old guy was indeed calm and had the air of a general.

"You have learned a lesson, boy!" Li Xiao bowed and saluted Sun Chengzong.

"Information says that there are more than twenty warships of the red-haired people. But the warships under your command are only five or six. If they really meet off the coast of Jinzhou, it is still a matter of uncertainty whether they can really defeat each other.

In addition! Although the Tatars are eager to attack the city, today is the 28th, and there is almost no moon in the sky. If the Tatars want to attack the city in the dark, they will not get any advantage.

If the Folangji people join the battle, they will be accidentally injured because of the darkness. I am sure that the Tatars will never start a war overnight.

In this way, I have an idea. It can not only relieve the siege of Jinzhou, but also take advantage of the chaos to kill and injure a large number of Tatar soldiers." Sun Chengzong, an old fox, walked to the sand table and looked at it, showing a confident smile.

Zu Kuan's tight-fitting cat was behind the battlements of the city wall, not daring to show any of his body. The red-haired men below fired their muskets accurately, and the guy named Big Eye next to him was lying on the ground with his face now.

There was a big hole in it, and two big eyeballs fell out and stuck to the side of the nose. It was as scary as you want.

The crenellations of the Jinzhou city wall are now like the front teeth of an old lady. It is good to have the crenels to hide, and many people continue to lie down on the cold city wall.

Compared with being able to survive, it's okay to suffer a little bit of freezing, but you won't freeze to death.

"Woo!" "Woo!" "Woo!" There were three more horn blasts.

"Damn it, you won't let it go. We are all ready. When the Tatars come, we will greet them with grenades." After Zu Kuan shouted, the city wall under his feet shook violently. Zu Kuan, who was squatting behind the battlements, was

Jumped with shock.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"... It's the red-haired man's cannon again, and countless iron balls have been embedded in the city wall. The reason why the city wall has not been stepped on yet is entirely because before the Tatars came, Mr. Yuan asked

People poured water on the city wall. The city wall and the foundation were frozen together.

A large bucket of boiling water was poured down the city wall. The smoke evaporated for just a moment, not even a quarter of an hour. The boiling water turned into sparkling ice, and the iron balls fired from the cannons hit the ice.

Go up. Immediately, ice and debris flew everywhere, but the city wall did not collapse even after receiving numerous blows.

The shaking feeling came up again and again. I had no way to fight back. I could only hold my head and get beaten. Damn it, those French cannons on the city wall. Only an hour after the battle started, they were beaten by other people's cannons.

The fire was extinguished. I heard that all the gunnery officers were killed!

Now it's all supported by the trebuchets behind the city towers, which were built about two meters lower than the city wall. The red-haired people's cannons can't hit it, but the explosive packets thrown by the trebuchets can hit the red-haired people's artillery.

This afternoon, several red-haired soldiers who were pushing cannons and trying to get closer to fire were killed. Those guys no longer dare to approach the city wall!

"Bang!" A broken brick hit my back painfully. I turned around and looked over. The pillar hidden behind the battlement had been broken into two pieces. The lower half of my body was on the wall, and the upper half of my body had flown into the city.

The accuracy of the red-haired man's cannon was actually not very good. Only about twenty of them died like Zhuzi in one afternoon.

"Fuck!" One more member of his centurion team was missing. Of the hundred men who came up at noon, there were only fifty-nine left.

"Get the hell down, get down!" Zu Kuan's shout was lost in the rumbling sound of artillery, the sound of "dong" and "dong" drums, and the shouts of charging Tatars. There were also the sounds of sobbing, cursing, and injuries.

Among the screams of people and the shouts of Zu Dashou with a broken voice.

The various sounds on the battlefield were chaotic, but Zu Kuan was surprised to find that he could distinguish every sound, and he could also hear clearly what he wanted to hear.

"Hoo!" The sound of a trebuchet sounded behind him, and then a smoking sack was thrown out.

The sack, which weighed fifty kilograms, flew out with a puff of green smoke. It exploded with a loud bang after landing, and nails, rolling balls, and gravel flew everywhere.

The charging Tatar soldiers fell instantly like wheat.

The silly and bold Zu Chengxun held his head and glanced secretly, then cursed and lay down behind the battlements. A few plumes of smoke and dust immediately rose up from the battlements, and gravel hit the cotton armor with a "bang" "

"Bang" sound.

The black powder provided by the court did not work well with grenades. Although the explosion knocked down a group of people, it only killed a few unlucky ones closest to the explosion point. The rest got up and brandished machetes, and then charged.

If Zu Chengxun looked up again, he would see some people rushing towards him and then falling to the ground without moving.

The sound of firecrackers began to sound sparsely, and Zu Kuan knew that gunpowder must have been thrown into the formation of the red-haired soldiers.

The military formation of the red-haired soldiers is very similar to those of the soldiers under the Commander-in-Chief. Going to the battlefield is like a military parade, with neat ranks. They march on the battlefield listening to the command! The difference is that the soldiers are beating drums and singing.

Blow the whistle and don't know which one to play.

Although it’s hard to tell how this was done, the volley of shots hit the real murderer. In the afternoon, Zu Kuan and the others were so pressed that they couldn’t lift their heads. As long as they showed their heads, a lot of bullets would be fired at them. If there were too many bullets, there would always be one and one

Get intimate contact with your own head.

This is how big eyes die!

"Pop!" "Pap!"...!

This was the fire cannon on the city wall being fired. Hearing the sound, Zu Kuan knew that the Tatar soldiers were still about a hundred steps away.

"Raise your shield!" As Zu Kuan roared, the soldiers lying on the ground picked up their shields one after another. They shrunk their bodies to the smallest size, and the sky seemed to darken. Then countless arrows fell down, and Zu Kuan only felt that the shields were on the ground.

There were "bang" and "bang" sounds, and I don't know how many arrows were hit.

The shelling stopped, which meant that the Tatar soldiers rushed to the city.

The shouts of the Tatar rebels could already be heard below the city wall. Zu Kuan did not hesitate to pull a grenade and throw it down.

"Boom!" The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the nose, and the shouts just now turned into screams. What a fucking scream!

Hand grenades can't actually kill a few people. Those tiny shrapnel will penetrate into the flesh, making people miserable.

I didn't dare to poke my head to look at the miserable situation below. In the morning, a fool did just that. Then there were a few more feather arrows on the body. Tianling Gai let the bullets fly to who knows where. The brains splattered all over the floor, which was extremely disgusting.

Got it!

Finally, a ladder came up. Zu Kuan yelled, "Come on!" and led five people to pick up a bumping pole!

The knocking pole is a thick wooden stick with a fork on the front. Six strong men shouted slogans and overthrew the ladder on the city wall with force. This was considered as completing the task.

One afternoon, Zu Kuan and the others actually didn't use swords or guns to kill. They basically took the bumping pole and overturned the ladder they had put up over and over again.

The city wall of Jinzhou is more than three feet high, and the ground in this winter is as frozen as stone. If the ladder were to be overturned, the people who fell would not be safe.

Zu Kuan jumped down from the two-foot-high window sill yesterday, and his feet were so shaken that it hurt.

Therefore, every time a big guy shouts a slogan and overthrows the ladder, there are always one or two screams coming up. The sound is long and sad. It is usually accompanied by the screams and curses of the people below.

Those who dared to climb the ladder first were all warriors. Now these warriors can only lie on the cold ground, waiting for their companions to send them back.

Those who are lucky will break their arms and legs, while those who are unlucky may not be able to take care of themselves for the rest of their lives. I believe that after knowing the result, they would even want to fall to death.

"Work harder! Hold on until dark, and we can go down and rest." At this time, any official appointments and promises of generous rewards are all fake. Being able to walk down the city wall alive is everyone's biggest wish.

The ladder was overturned again, and the brothers laughed and cheered each other up. It would take a while to put the ladder up again, but everyone could take a breather at this time.

"Wow...!" The Tatar soldiers below the city seemed to be in trouble. The Tatar cavalry in the distance rushed towards the city wall crazily on horseback. Looking around, the Tatar soldiers seemed to be crazy. While shouting,

While rushing towards Jinzhou City crazily.

"Are the Tatar soldiers crazy?" The brothers looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

"The city gate is broken! The city gate is broken!" The news blew like the wind, and the brothers were all stunned.

"Haha! The Tatar soldiers are unlucky this time. We have a Wengcheng in Jinzhou City." Zu Kuan actually laughed out loud when he heard the news that the city gate had been breached.

The opponent has cannons, and the city gate will be breached sooner or later. The reason why it has not been breached is because before the Tatar soldiers came, straw stacks poured with water and frozen hard were dropped from the tower. Although this thing is not

It's so strong, but when a cannonball hits it, it's like a bow and arrow shooting into cotton.

It is estimated that the Tatar soldiers finally moved the straw piles away, and the cannonballs blasted the city gate open.

The broken city gate full of holes was trampled underfoot, and countless pairs of big feet stepped on the door panel to run inside. If you ran slowly, all the good things would be snatched away by others.

Such things as gangsters and gangsters were strictly prohibited in Hou Jin's army.
