When Yu Ming saw the harvest, the bandits suddenly plucked up their courage.
He put down his telescope and commanded the Crouching Tiger Cannon again to bombard the enemy indiscriminately.
A wave of bombings and a wave of charges.
Three times like this.
Jiangzhou soldiers finally rushed to the city.
"kill!"
"Put down your weapons and surrender to death!"
More and more Renaissance troops are swarming up the city wall.
Not to be outdone, the alliance army saw that they had an advantage on the city wall and rushed like a chicken to the blood.
The power of the Crouching Tiger Cannon is there, and it is the first time for the Alliance army to see the power of the Crouching Tiger Cannon.
With such strong teammates, there’s nothing we can’t defeat.
This is the time to grab the battle glory.
There are more and more people on the city wall.
The number of thieves defending the city is getting smaller and smaller, and the space is getting smaller and smaller.
"Don't retreat! Fight with me!"
"The general took us well and gave us all the treasures! Can't we be loyal to the general!"
Liu He stood at the front holding a steel knife, followed by the defenders who had been bribed by him.
Although most of the defenders laid down their weapons and surrendered, there were still a few hundred people who still thought of Liu Jinpeng.
Guo Ming led the Fuxing Army and trapped the city defenders on a very small section of the city wall.
Seeing that Liu He was still resisting, he immediately called to the Renaissance troops around him.
"Load the musket and kill the thief general first!"
The Renaissance troops immediately aimed their guns at Liu He.
Liu He had already seen the "fire stick" aimed at him, and he knew he was going to die. At this time, he just wanted to give it a try and buy time for the Liu Jinpeng brothers and sisters.
"Kill! Charge forward, and you will have to hold on to your back even if you die!" Liu He shouted and pulled out the steel knife.
Just as he took a step forward, he heard a "bang bang" gunshot.
"Puff puff!"
At a distance of twenty or thirty steps, the hit rate of the musket is very high.
Liu He felt the pain coming from his body, and his body seemed to fall forward uncontrollably.
He knew his life was coming to an end.
At the last moment, Liu He turned his head and looked in the direction of Xicheng.
He seemed to see Liu Jinpeng and his sister leaving the city.
"Second Young Master! Third Young Lady! I, Liu He, am worthy of the Liu family!"
After Liu He said this, there was no more movement...
To the west of the city, soldiers poured out of the open gate.
The carriage of the Liu brothers and sisters was at the front, followed by five thousand elite men.
These five thousand people were Liu Jinpeng's die-hard loyalists and were willing to go to Qianzhong Road with him to seek a living.
After leaving the city gate, Liu Jinpeng and his sister stood on the carriage, looking at Changsha City behind them.
They have lived in this place for a year, but now they have to give up completely.
Moreover, their loyal servant Liu He sacrificed his life to help them get a chance to escape.
"General! There is an ambush!" A cry of surprise broke the mood of Liu Jinpeng brother and sister.
"not good!"
Liu Jinpeng looked in the direction pointed by the soldier and was stunned.
On a hillside in front, there were twenty black tubes lined up!
It’s that thing!
When Liu Jinpeng saw the Tiger Crouching Cannon, he knew it was bad. If there was a black tube, there must be something explosive.
Liu Jinpeng felt that he was probably in trouble this time.
"Sister! You heard about me! In a moment I will lead people to rush over to stop the officers and soldiers! You go first!"
At this time, Liu Jinpeng finally no longer wanted to survive for himself, he wanted his sister Liu Manqing to survive.
Liu Manqing held Liu Jinpeng's hand tightly and said: "Second brother! We must die together!"
"Yes! We want to die together! Second brother! Third sister! Although I am not your biological sister, you treat me like a close relative, and I am willing to die with you!" Manying also pulled Liu Jinpeng's brother and sister aside.
"Okay! Then we three brothers and sisters will live and die together!" Liu Jinpeng looked at the two sisters and said with deep emotion in his heart.
"Brothers! Rush with me!" Liu Jinpeng took his two sisters and drove the carriage forward.
On the top of the mountain, Song Chengwang stayed here bored. Yu Ming asked him to come over and stop him just in case.
The artillery battle ahead does not require any skills, it is just constant bombardment, and anyone can direct it.
The interception battle here requires a qualified commander.
So Song Chengwang became a qualified candidate.
As a result, I didn't see anyone until I fell asleep.
Fortunately, hard work paid off, and the thieves finally fled to the west of the city.
Yu Ming and others had already analyzed the whereabouts of the traitors' escape, and they could only go west to the Central Guizhou Road.
There are Alliance troops in all directions except the west.
The thieves have no way to go.
"Haha! It's coming! Brothers, get ready to light the fire!"
"The crouching tiger cannon is ready for firing! All the musketeers have loaded the bullets for me!"
"Take out all the bombardier's grenades and prepare to fire at my command!"
Song Chengwang directed in an orderly manner.
Seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, Song Chengwang was very excited.
The one who ran out at this time was definitely a big fish. If he shot him to death, he could brag about it with Song Lei and his gang for the rest of his life!
Song Chengwang held a telescope and carefully watched the bandits approaching.
He is calculating the distance.
Whether it is explosive shells, muskets, or bombs, the distance is not very far.
To achieve maximum effectiveness, you can only wait for them to pass through the valley.
"Two hundred meters!"
"One hundred and fifty meters!"
"one hundred……"
Song Chengwang was calculating the distance, but suddenly his hands trembled and he almost dropped the telescope.
I grabbed it frantically before I could hold the telescope steady.
"What! Why is she there?" Song Chengwang said in shock while holding the telescope.
The telescope was so hard it hit my eyes.
"is her!"
"is her!"
"That's her!"
Song Chengwang trembled with excitement.
Through the telescope, he saw the carriage approaching gradually, and the figure of the girl on the carriage firmly caught his eyes.
It's Liu Yuhua!
Song Chengwang once asked Song Yang to find Liu Yuhua for him!
"Why is Yuhua with the thief?"
"She was kidnapped!"
"Bastard thief!"
Song Chengwang shouted angrily.
"General! What's wrong with you? The enemy has come over! Do you want to fire?"
The flag-waving messenger looked at Song Chengwang who was angry for no reason and asked.
Song Chengwang's hands were shaking violently at this time. He turned his head and looked at the Crouching Tiger Cannon, and suddenly shouted: "Don't move! Don't fire!"
"Put out the fire for me! Do you hear me?"
The soldiers who were waving the flag were dumbfounded. What the hell kind of order was this?
If it weren't for Song Chengwang being Song Yang's nephew, the old Song royal family would not have the possibility of defecting to the enemy. The soldiers would have suspected that Song Chengwang was planning to defect to the enemy.
But doubt is doubt, and incomprehension is incomprehension.
The general gave an order, and the ordering soldiers could only carry it out in this way.
After setting off the flag and going out, the Tiger Crouching artillerymen also looked confused.
After knowing that the flag-waving commander had waved the flag three times, the soldiers realized that it was not the wrong flag.
Although they were confused, they all put down the torches in their hands.
The musketeers no longer aimed their muskets.
"Yuhua! Yuhua! Don't be afraid! I'm here to save you!" Song Chengwang yelled down the mountain.
Danzig's soldiers had already rushed to the foot of the mountain, and his shouts could not be heard amid the commotion of a large crowd.
On the carriage, Liu Jinpeng saw that the torch above him had died down, and he suddenly became excited.
"Quick! Rush over! Quick! Their torches are out!" Liu Jinpeng hurriedly led people out of the valley.
Even though the torch was out, he didn't dare to attack the mountain. Who knew whether the torch would light up immediately.
At this time, he had no intention of fighting and could only hope to escape and ascend to heaven.
Liu Manying in the car seemed to hear someone calling Yuhua.
These two words made her look a little dazed.
I looked around and saw that there were rioters everywhere.
"Manying, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't worry, we have rushed out! We have rushed out!"
Liu Manqing happily pulled her and smiled.
"Yeah! Rushing out! Second brother! Sister! We're coming out!" Manying's mind was pulled back by Liu Manqing, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
The original situation of certain death was inexplicably resolved.
Liu Jinpeng did not dare to delay, for fear that the iron tube would show its power and lead everyone to escape westward.
On the hillside, Song Chengwang's voice became hoarse from shouting.
He looked stupidly at the carriage going away, with a look of regret on his face.
They came to fight an ambush and didn't bring any cavalry with them.
I chased the carriage with my legs without even thinking about it.
And the guards would not let Song Chengwang take risks.
Yu Ming had told them to protect Song Chengwang's safety.
"It turns out she was kidnapped by thieves! No wonder she has never been found!" Song Chengwang sat on the ground exhausted and muttered to himself.
"General! The thieves have escaped. What should we do now?"
The words of the soldiers made Song Chengwang come back to his senses.
"Oh! It's my fault. I will admit my mistake to Uncle Wang when I get back!" Song Chengwang sighed heavily.
…
In Changsha City, Tanzhou Wang Songtong had already led a large army into the city to clean up the chaos and pacify the people.
When the people heard that Master Wang had returned, they all happily went out to greet him.
Thousands of people gathered on the street.
The further we go into the city, the more people there become, and the streets are almost deserted.
Yu Ming finally appeased the people and then escorted Song Tong to the general's mansion.
This place was Liu Jinpeng's former official office. Song Tong directly requisitioned it and used it as an office in the future.
"Strange? Didn't the thieves leave from the west gate? Why didn't they hear the sound of the cannon?"
Everyone has settled down, Yu Ming frowned.
"That's not right! I just asked, the bandit came from the west gate!" Guo Ming stood up and said.
"Where is the person who responded?" Yu Ming asked.
"General, we have been sent!" Guo Ming said immediately.
"Mao'er, go to the west of the city and see if anything happens to Chengwang!" Song Tong was also a little worried and said to his son.
"Yes!" Song Mao was about to go out when he saw Song Chengwang bringing someone in outside the door.
"How is it? No one was blocked?" Song Tong was relieved and said to Song Chengwang with a smile.
"Oh! It's all my fault for letting them run away!" Song Chengwang sat down on the table with a look of annoyance on his face.
"Run away? What happened?" Everyone was curious.
Can the tiger crouching cannon, muskets and bombs still make them run away?
"They hijacked Yuhua!" Song Chengwang said with a bitter face.
"Liu Yuhua?" Song Tong asked doubtfully.
Song Chengwang nodded.
Song Tong also heard about Liu Yuhua.
"Chengwang, now that Yuhua's whereabouts are known, we must find a way to rescue her. The thieves probably fled to Qianzhong Road. I will send people to sneak into Qianzhong Road to find their hiding place first.
If so, let’s make other plans.”
Song Tong sat over and patted Song Chengwang on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you, Uncle Seven, for causing you trouble." Song Chengwang said embarrassedly.
"It doesn't matter. We are all one family!" Song Tong said with a smile.
"Everyone has gathered and the traitors have been driven away. Let's discuss the follow-up arrangements."
After appeasing Song Chengwang, Song Tong sat back and looked at everyone and said.
"Just stay with Mao'er's troops here."
"The other gentlemen will return each other, and all food and salary will be provided by Tanzhou. Thank you again for your help!"
Song Tong cupped his fists and said to everyone.
Everyone hurriedly said they didn't dare, but they didn't refuse the food and salary.
The army entered the city and directly moved Liu He out to labor the army's grain and grass and confiscated it.
Song Tong now used it as a favor, and everyone accepted it.
