Chapter 140 Surprise Attack
"No. 3, No. 3, you don't know the word, and you don't know the red cross above!!" Under the city wall, the second son of the Huang family ran around after six bronze cannons, and kept shouting loudly, "No. 4 cannon, No. 4 cannon, no. 4 cannon, no. 4 cannon, no. 4 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 5 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no. 6 cannon, no.
"No. 5, No. 5, it's your turn soon. Put the muzzle right and smash it into the enemy building as much as possible!"
"No. 6, don't be so anxious at No. 6! Sixty breaths are available, this is the rule! It's already sixty breaths, grandma, why are you doing so fast? Slowly, follow me and take a deep breath, yes, that's it, remember! It's your turn after the fifth one is ten breaths!"
"Auxiliary soldier, assistant soldier. Your grandma, put a wooden pole on the river bank and show me the way to build a bridge! Can't you match it? Can't you match it? Can't you beat it randomly with a hammer? If you want to cheat, you have to pretend to be a little bit!"
"Who brings the grenade? Which one brings the grenade? Hurry up and let me out! Stand by the river, lit the grenade and threw it at the city gate! I don't care whether you use a rope or a bamboo pole, I have to throw it to the other side anyway! It's not that you'll blow the door! I don't have enough guns here, so I have to use you as a substitute!"
The gunners, auxiliary soldiers, and grenades responsible for protecting artillery were urged to circle around him, but their cooperation between them was obviously much smoother. Ten breaths were one shell, two or three breaths of grenades, which blew up and down the East City Gate into yellow smoke, as if falling from the earth to the Avici Hell.
The smoke shell was originally developed by Huang Laowai, who summed up the experience of fighting with Asu Army last time, and specially developed it to deal with war horses. In addition to loading many grape-sized lead seeds, it also absorbed the advantages of the "poison smoke ball" of this era, and specially added arsenic, grass-headed black, croton, wolf poison, dogwood, pepper and other things. Although the lethality is far less than that of ordinary flowering bullets, its irritation to the nostrils has been fully utilized. (Note 1)
But no one expected that this thing was not used on the cavalry for the first time, but was used by Huang Lao Er to injure people. Six bronze cannons were fired in turn at intervals of ten breaths. The speed was not fast, but every time the shelling attack, it pushed the defenders on the city into despair a big step...
Among the people who escaped from the daytime, they had heard of the great power of the large muskets in the hands of the Red Turban Army, so they tried their best to hide their bodies behind the battlements so as not to be smashed into a ball of meat sauce by the projectiles. Unexpectedly, the projectiles fired by the Red Turban this time were no longer solid iron balls. It was a poisonous thunder that could not be guaranteed to bloom after landing. If it did not explode, it would be thick smoke. Even if the soldiers around them were not killed on the spot, they would be dizzy and their noses and tears flowed out.
"Press up, push up and shoot arrows, and set rockets down the city. Don't let them cross the river!" Deputy Wanhu Tiejin swung his sword and cut over two soldiers who escaped from the enemy building, and ordered in a hoarse voice.
Although he was standing at the connection between the city wall and the horse road, he was also smoked by poisonous smoke and his eyes turned black. His mind was far less flexible than during the day. "Push me up, who dares to retreat again, kill you without mercy!"
"Sir, the enemy building, the enemy building can't stand at all, wow!" Liu Hulu, the commander of the thousand-time man who was running to the iron gold knife, lay his head on the brick walls on both sides of the horse road, and said loudly, "If, if you force your brothers to go, wow, go in. No, don't kill him, they will all be smoky to death! wow!"
"Hu, Wu said! Xun, how can this cigarette smoke kill people!" Deputy Wanhu Tiejin pointed at the back of the head of the commander Liu Hulu with the tip of the knife, and threatened loudly, "You, don't be up or not, don't be up, wow!"
Halfway through his words, he lay on the brick wall and vomited wildly. His nose and tears flowed down his cheeks in a string.
"General, General, I can't stand it anymore, I really can't stand it!" The Mongolian leader Baolige also ran down, his beard covered with white spit. "The red scarf thief put heartbroken grass in the fire thunder. After a long time, even if no one died, the brothers could not hold up the knife!"
"General, general, hurry up and raise the fire and ask Lord Daluhuachi for help. Everyone, everyone really can't stand it!" On the horse road on the other side of the enemy building, the headmaster Zheng Wannian of Huai'an City also ran down, and dozens of yellow-faced local heroes followed behind him, "The red scarf thieves and red scarf thieves have started building bridges. If you don't ask for help, the east gate will definitely be the first to be broken!"
"Nonsense! Even the red scarf thief didn't see the shadow, how could I ask for help?" Deputy Wanhu Tiejin grabbed the cloak and wiped the tears on his face, and responded angrily. "Even if the bridge is built, they can't climb up the city wall three meters high for a while!"
It seemed as if it was specifically to sweep his face, "Bang!" A muffled sound suddenly appeared at the east gate of Huaian City, and it was smashed to pieces. Immediately afterwards, the explosion sounded in the door opening, and thick smoke gushed into the cracks of the door.
"They are smashing the door, they smashed the door with large guns!" The defenders who had retreated to the side wall of the urn city shouted at the top of their throats. Some immediately ran to the connection between the city gate and the horse road, preparing to go down to strengthen the city gate. Some stared at the desperate eyes, dazed and at a loss.
"Kill, kill into Huai'an City, and the one who captures it alive will be amused!"
"Kill, the one who captures it alive and sell him to the Emperor of Tartars!!"
"Kill, break Huai'an City, and the person who captures it alive will be amused!"
The earth-shaking shouts of killing came across from the city gate. There was also the "bangbang" sound of hammers hitting the wood, and the noise of messy and noisy footsteps.
"Boom!" Another poisonous bomb exploded in the enemy building, rolling yellow smoke and orchid flames rose up around the pillars. Even the bravest person did not have the courage to persevere in the enemy building. With a look of snot and tears on his face, he escaped, lying on the edge of the horse road and gasping heavily.
The deputy ten thousand households had just lost a battle in the daytime, and they were already in a lingering fear. At night, they squatted in the enemy building for half a night, exhausted. After being fumigated by poisonous smoke and screaming for killing, even the old army could not remain calm. Hearing the muffled thunder outside the door, he became more and more anxious, he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly, "Come on, ride my horse, ride my horse to ask Lord Daluhuachi for help. The thief immediately rushed in from the east gate!"
"Yes!" Several messengers on standby under the city wall immediately jumped onto the horse, whipped their mounts hard, and rushed towards the government office like lightning. Seeing the panicked soldiers and Min Zhuang along the way, they drove all to the east gate without hesitation, "Hurry, go and support the east gate. The east gate is tight. If you don't want the red scarf thieves to attack the house, go quickly. Lord Tiejin will not forget you!"
Those civilians who helped the patrol were all servants of several large salt merchants. How could they have seen such a scene?! I heard Tiejin's personal soldiers say anxiously, and they didn't even bother to think about it. They immediately surrounded each other and ran towards the east gate. While running, they did not forget to call more people to help, "East Gate, the red scarf thief attacked the east gate."
"East Gate, the Red Turban Army exploded the door with thunder in the palm of his hand!"
"East Gate, the Red Turban Army exploded the east gate with its palm thunder. Hurry up, hurry up and go over! If you can't go over, it will be too late!"
For a moment, most of the soldiers and Min Zhuang in Huai'an City knew that the East Gate was in danger. Anyone who could pull away was taken away by their respective centurions and killed them towards the East Gate like ants. When Tiejin sent his personal soldiers to ask for help to arrive at the government office, the danger had been artificially magnified by more than ten times. It turned into the East Gate that was broken, and the enemy and us were fighting to the death in the urn.
Daluhua Chizhe was obscured by Chu Buha for a long time, and he couldn't even remember the names of the Mongolian and Han generals under his command. At the critical moment, how could he tell the truth clearly? When he saw Tiejin's confidant coming to bring reinforcements, he was immediately panicked. He didn't even dare to ask in detail. He grabbed the arrow on the table and sent him down regardless. "Shuchi, you take my personal soldiers to the east gate immediately and hold me back. No matter how you support the people from the other gates. Ha Xin, go to the west gate, transfer half of the troops and horses down, and immediately go to the east gate. Xing Ge, Nasuladin, you two go to the south gate and the north gate, and let them divide half of the troops to support Tiejin. The others all put on armor. Today, I will take you with you to survive and die with Huai'an."
Although he didn't know the war, as a city of Daluhachi, he still had some blood and courage. Seeing that his last words were harsh, the soldiers immediately felt a little nervous. No one dared to talk more nonsense and agreed to execute the order.
Because of the full treasury in Huai'an City, the streets in the city were well built. The personal soldiers who were sent to the command ran wildly, and soon sent the orders of the people to several other city gates. The defenders in charge of the city defense listened to the continuous thunder at the east gate and shouted to kill the earth, and were already as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. At this moment, when they received the order from Daluhuachi, how dare they delay? They immediately divided the soldiers under their command into two, picked up the elite ones, and sent their confidants to run towards the east gate.
The enemy building at the east gate had already been burned into a huge torch. The golden flames were swept up and down in thick smoke, and could be clearly seen across dozens of miles.
Rudin, the general who was responsible for guarding the north gate, was a cautious man. He had heard the shouts and killing at the east gate for more than half an hour, but there was no sign of weakening or strengthening. The muffled thunder continued from beginning to end. He gradually became suspicious in his heart, turned his head and asked his confidant Zhao Xiucai, "We have that gun on the wall of the city. If we don't fill the dose, we will continue to hit like this. After half an hour, we should have exploded. Why did the guns outside the east gate sound endlessly tonight!"
"Dong Weng doesn't know something!" Zhao Xiucai immediately shook his feather fan and explained with a shaking head, "Then Zhu Bashiyi was said to be born at the 1st of August. He has a fire-headed gold life. But his surname is Zhu, Zhu, the Zhu, the most aids the fire luck. This gun was made of pure copper, and it was filled with gunpowder. Both gold and fire were also occupied. Therefore, if it falls into someone else's hands, it must stop after hitting seven or eight times, otherwise it will explode. If it falls into the hands of Zhu, it will not only increase its power exponentially, but the gun barrel will also become particularly strong."
"So as you say, isn't Huai'an City so unlucky?!" Hailudin was confused when he heard this, frowned and continued to ask.
"No, no!" Zhao Xiucai continued to sway the feather fan lightly, as elegant as Zhuge's brightness, and as mysterious as purple ginger buds. "Our Huaian City has three water vapor. Huaian, Huaian, if there is water, it will be peaceful. The city is surrounded by water. Although Zhu Bashiyi is cinnabar fire-headed gold, when encountering the water in Huaian, I am afraid that he will return in vain this time!"
"Really?" Hailudin was overjoyed when he heard this, his eyebrows pounding up and down.
"It's so true, but I don't dare to sing about anything else. This astronomy, geography, yin and yang gossip has been immersed in it for more than ten years. If you can't even calculate this little thing, General?"
Just as he was blowing, he found that Herudin looked behind him with his eyes hooked, his legs and hands trembling like he was thrusting his chicken feet. He turned around and saw a row of evil ghosts emitting stench on his body pounced on the horse path. Wherever he passed, all those blocking the road were cut off with one knife.
Note: Something needs to be handled, so there is only one update today and tomorrow, both at night. Thank you for understanding.
Note 1: Poison smoke balls, a firearm invented in the Song Dynasty. They were filled with black gunpowder, various poisons, cigarette items, asphalt, etc., and then ignite them and threw them at the enemy. According to records, they could directly poison people.
