At this moment, the smoke was rising, but this sound seemed extremely abrupt and fell on Qi Zeguang's ears.
"Aren't these the gangsters from Suzhou City?"
Someone suddenly shouted something like this, and Qi Zeguang turned around and saw that they were all the gangsters he had seen that day.
But now, more than a hundred people were carrying large jars of things on their shoulders. Before Qi Zeguang could speak, the young man in the lead picked up a barrel of oil and poured it towards the city gate.
At this moment, all the flying ladders climbing on the city wall were Japanese soldiers. When this barrel of oil went down, they were all poured out.
Before these Japanese pirates could react, the young man took a torch that had been prepared and swung it downwards.
As soon as the torch touched them, the flames started to burn on the Japanese pirates' bodies.
"ah!"
Qi Zeguang felt shocked. The Japanese soldiers on the ladder were all wrapped in flames, and they all fell down in an instant.
With the sudden participation of these 100 people, the battle situation was instantly eased. More than 100 barrels of oil were poured down. Not only the Japanese pirates were burned, but the flying ladders were also set alight.
Just listen to the young man shouting: "General, quickly use your bow and arrow to stop these Japanese pirates, don't let them put out the fire!"
After hearing this, Qi Zeguang hurriedly commanded the sergeants present: "Hurry and shoot the Japanese pirates below!"
Brick bows and arrows kept calling down, and the Japanese pirates who were about to step forward to put out the fire were immediately forced back.
Perhaps it was because the Japanese relied on the cannon, or they began to feel that this time they could rely on internal and external cooperation to easily capture Suzhou City. There were no large siege equipment, and flying ladders were their only siege equipment.
instrument.
As long as all these flying ladders are burned, it is absolutely impossible for these Japanese pirates to capture Suzhou City today!
Even though iron bullets are constantly flying towards this side from a distance at this moment, it is no longer possible to stop these hot-blooded sergeants on the tower.
Each and every Qi Jiajun was knocked to the ground by artillery fire, but in the end, they still persisted until the flames burned these flying ladders and made it difficult to use them.
"Get down!"
Under Qi Zeguang's order, everyone lay down again and leaned behind the city gate.
Everyone let out a long sigh, feeling thankful in their hearts that they had defended it, even if it was only temporarily defended, but as long as they persisted today, they would be saved when the main force arrived tomorrow.
Qi Zeguang glanced at the Japanese army in the distance who could only stare blankly, and then he sighed and said: "Brother, it's all thanks to you this time. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to defend this city today."
The young man waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Although we are just a group of street gangsters, in front of our country, we can be like you, a great hero who saves the country and the people."
Hearing this, Qi Zeguang felt a lot for a while. He thought this person was a bastard before, but he didn't expect that he actually harbored such righteousness in his heart. He really misjudged him.
"I don't know, brother, what do you call me?"
The young man smiled: "Wang Qiang."
"When the Japanese are driven away this time, I will definitely write a letter to Sima, and I will definitely give you a big reward."
After all, he helped him defend Suzhou City, which was of great significance to the entire war situation.
But Wang Qiang waved his hand and refused: "Rewards and other rewards are optional, but I heard that General Qi and the King of Shuchuan know each other, is it true?"
Seeing the expectant look on Wang Qiang's face, Qi Zeguang was silent for a moment and nodded: "Yes, you are my brother. What's wrong?"
"If you can, please help me introduce him. King Shuchuan is so legendary. I have always wanted to meet him."
As soon as he heard this, Qi Zeguang understood a lot of things instantly. No wonder this man's gang was called Xiaochuanmen, and he turned out to be an admirer of Chen Mu.
"Don't worry, Chen Mu will also come this time. He should be on the way now. Not only will you be able to see him, but you will also be able to kill enemies with him, haha."
A few years ago, when Chen Mu led the Sichuan disciples to make waves in Bajun, Wang Qiang began to pay attention to him. At that time, Wang Qiang was just a little gangster.
Later, Chen Mu defeated the Tibetan army, was granted the title of Yizhou Mu, and became the commander-in-chief of the state. Wang Qiang was completely fascinated by this man.
Not only Wang Qiang, but all the gangsters in the country felt the same way at that time. Chen Mu's series of deeds let them know that gangsters can also be like this.
So later on, Wang Qiang simply set up his own business and founded the Xiaochuan Sect here, hoping to become a man like Chen Mu.
"General, let's take advantage of the opportunity to consolidate the city's defenses. The Japanese are cunning. We can use fire dragon oil to burn down their flying ladders today, but I'm afraid they won't be able to do it tomorrow."
Qi Zeguang nodded: "Let's take a rest for a while. Those cannons are too powerful. Let's just hold on until tomorrow. When Yingtian's main force comes, we won't be so stretched by then."
With those cannons bombarding the city gates, it actually makes no difference whether the city defense is consolidated or not. For now, we have to defend until the main army arrives.
In the Japanese camp, Oda Guishuo sat quietly on the commander's seat.
Even though the generals around him were all tough men, they still didn't dare to make any move in front of this woman. It can be seen that Japan was still in the Warring States Period, and warlords everywhere were divided. It was this woman who single-handedly controlled the war.
The entire Japanese country was unified.
"It took a whole day, but we didn't capture a single remote city. There were only a few thousand people in the city. It's really ridiculous."
Seeing Oda Guishuo start to reprimand, several people's expressions suddenly became stern.
Then someone hurriedly knelt down and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, our heavy siege equipment has not arrived yet this time. It will arrive tomorrow morning. How can we not be able to capture a single Suzhou city with an army of 100,000 people?"
At this time, Oda Guishuo was also a little angry. The 100,000 men under his command were all the elite troops he had used to unify Japan and attack Goryeo, but now they were blocked outside the city by thousands of people. It was really ridiculous.
Of course, they are more worried. You must know that Suzhou City is too important to them. Only by capturing this place can they have a base. With a base, they can send troops to conquer other places in the south of the Yangtze River.
Moreover, this was originally a raid and could not be captured quickly. Once Yingtian's support arrived, it would be difficult to enter the Central Plains.
At this time, Qi Zeguang's lieutenant had arrived at Yingtian Mansion, dismounted and ran towards the Commander's Mansion.
"Lord Sima, it's bad, the Japanese are here!"
Li Conghou was still reading in the study. When he heard this, he was so frightened that he almost fell off his stool.
"Japanese people? How did they suddenly attack?"
The deputy general came to the study, looked at Li Conghou's frightened expression, took a few long breaths, and said: "No... it's Suzhou City. The Japanese attacked Suzhou City at night, but they were resisted by General Qi. Now he only has
There are less than two or three thousand people, Lord Sima, please send troops as soon as possible."
