In order to defend Lushun City, Chen Jisheng no longer cared about offending some people in the city.

If he cannot defend the city of Lushun, he will be punished by the imperial court without anyone having to do anything to him.

With the example of Mao Wenlong before him, he did not dare to bet whether the court would punish him for losing the city, and he did not want to go to the capital to keep Mao Wenlong company.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The cannons placed outside the city under the Tiger Character Flag suddenly started firing.

"General, be careful!"

The soldiers around Chen Jisheng took Chen Jisheng and hid in a slightly safer place.

On the city wall, other generals were also hiding under the protection of their own soldiers.

No one wants to use flesh and blood to carry the cannon.

However, there were too many cannons flying into the city from outside the city. One general was unlucky enough to be hit by the cannons. Even the soldiers around him had no time to save him. He was torn to pieces by the cannons on the spot, and his flesh and blood were scattered everywhere.

land.

Several soldiers and soldiers around were killed or injured.

More than one cannon hit the city wall, and the soldiers guarding other parts of the city wall suffered even more casualties.

For a time, there were constant wailing on the city wall and blood flowed all over the ground.

"Quickly, go and take out all the wooden boards and quilts used to protect against artillery fire. Be sure to hold on." Chen Jisheng squatted behind a virgin wall and shouted to his men.

The gunfire outside the city continued to sound, and he didn't shout loudly because he was afraid that the people around him wouldn't hear clearly.

"General, Shangdusi hasn't come back yet. There are some wooden boards, but not many quilts." The one who spoke was a general guarding the city wall.

When the gunfire sounded outside the city, he, who was also avoiding the bombardment, happened to be hiding not far from Chen Jisheng.

Chen Jisheng glanced at the speaker.

He felt a bit familiar, they should be the soldiers and horses under Shang Kexi's command. He said: "Use all the soldiers and horses under Shang Kexi's command. Tell the gunners on the city wall to fire back immediately. As long as they hit a gun on the tiger thief, I will

Just give them five taels of silver and go quickly!"

There was constant sound of cannon outside the city.

If they cannot fight back, the city will have to be passively bombarded, which will cause a huge blow to the morale of the soldiers defending the city.

As the general of a city, he must fight back, even if he kills or injures some people.

After receiving Chen Jisheng's instructions, although General Manager was unwilling to leave the hiding place, he did not dare to disobey the military order, so he had to bite the bullet and walk out of the hiding place.

In order to ensure his own safety, he specially asked someone to walk in front of him with a quilt-covered door panel and trot along the city wall.

However, just halfway through, a cannon fell from the air and hit the door panel. The door panel shattered on the spot and the quilt was burned black with a gap.

The boss who was hiding behind the door panel was hit by a cannon on the spot and died.

When Chen Jisheng, who was hiding behind the female wall, saw this scene, his mouth twitched and helplessness appeared on his face.

A single wooden board and quilt obviously cannot block the cannon fired from outside the city.

As for the commander-in-chief who died under gunfire, he didn't feel too sad.

People will always die on the battlefield, not to mention a general, even a general like him will be shrouded in horse leather one day.

"General, the shelling by the tiger thieves is too intensive, it is difficult for our people to stay on the city wall." At some point, Huang Chinchilla came to Chen Jisheng's side with his waist down.

After hearing this, Chen Jisheng pressed his back against the wall tiles, looked at Huang Long and said, "Vice General Huang, is there any good way to solve the current dilemma?"

"The general can't think of any good solution for the time being. There is only one stupid solution." Huang Long said, "The general might as well withdraw from the city wall first and leave a few people to guard the city wall. As long as the tiger thieves come up, we can give him

Others deliver messages."

Chen Jisheng shook his head and said: "No, if we withdraw from the city wall, once the tiger thieves attack, our people will not have time to return to the city wall."

"The general only thought of this one way." Huang Long spread his hands.

Who would have thought that the Tiger Flag brought so many cannons. Once the cannons were fired, the cannons fell on the city like raindrops. The guards on the city wall could not even stand under the bombardment, let alone fight back.

Chen Jisheng moved his body back and put one arm flat against the brick wall. He looked sideways at him and said, "Shang Kexi went to get wooden boards and quilts. As long as the quilts are thick enough and water is poured on them, they should be able to block the cannons."

son."

"Shang Kexi left not long ago. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while." Huang Long frowned.

Even if Shang Kexi, who just left not long ago, comes back, how many quilts can he bring with him?

Chen Jisheng said: "Shang Kexi will definitely rush back as soon as he hears the sound of cannons. If you hold on for a while, the situation will turn around when Shang Kexi comes back."

"Then just wait!"

It's good that Huang Long is not optimistic about it, but if Chen Jisheng said this, he wouldn't be able to refute the opponent's face in public.

Why do you say that the other party is the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, and he is just the deputy commander-in-chief.

The city wall was constantly being bombarded, and the casualties of the soldiers defending the city were increasing.

If there are only a few cannons bombarding the city wall, excluding some missed cannons, the few casualties will still allow the defenders to persevere.

Nowadays, the muzzles of nearly a hundred cannons are aimed at a city wall. Even if some of the cannons miss, it is still guaranteed that nearly half of the cannons will land firmly on the top of the city.

No matter how hard the guards on the city wall dodge, there are always guns that can hit the guards.

The increasing number of casualties made the guards on the city wall unable to bear it anymore, and they began to flee towards the horse crossing, hoping to escape down the city wall through the horse road.

However, the exit of the horse trail had already been guarded by the general's personal soldiers, cutting off the possibility of these guards escaping.

As soon as the guards who ran out of their hiding places and tried to escape appeared, the casualties suddenly increased.

The horse path was impassable, and the guards on the city wall were constantly being killed by artillery fire.

Some of the guards panicked and simply jumped down the city wall.

If you jump off the two-foot-high city wall, you may suffer broken bones and tendons, or you may be killed on the spot.

Even so, some of the city defenders still jumped down desperately.

The defenders on the city wall could only watch the soldiers jumping off the city wall, but they could not stop them.

If you come out of the hiding place, you will probably be hit by a cannon.

Only words can't stop these city defenders who want to survive.

Any general is shit when he wants to escape.

"Send someone to look for Shang Kexi, why haven't you come back?" Chen Jisheng, who also noticed that the guards in the city were about to lose their hold, couldn't help but send someone to look for Shang Kexi.

He was afraid that if he waited a little longer, all the guards on the city wall would escape, even if they were not dead.

"Let's go, General!" Huang Long took the initiative to take over the errand to find Shang Kexi when he returned.

Chen Jisheng stared at Huang Long's face for a while, and then said: "Okay, Deputy General Huang, could you please go there personally and be sure to bring back Shang Kexi and all the things to resist the cannon."

"I will obey your orders." Huang Long bent down and retreated towards the horse path.
