"No matter who breaks into the city, this is a good opportunity!" Zhang Fu immediately shouted: "Soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, capture Duobang City in one fell swoop! Kill!"
"Kill!" Countless Ming soldiers howled loudly and fought with the Annan people again.
At this time, the momentum of the Ming soldiers surpassed that of the Annan soldiers again, forcing the Annan people to retreat step by step. However, the Annan people still defended desperately. Although they were defeated, the Ming army had the upper hand, but it was still difficult to defeat them in one fell swoop.
Zhang Fu couldn't help but look at other places where shouts of killing were coming, hoping that the Ming army in other places would make a breakthrough and capture Duobang City.
But no such signal came yet. The sounds coming from everywhere were still fierce shouts of killing, and they were in both Chinese and Annan dialects.
Zhang Fu looked at the soldiers of the two countries who were still fighting hard in front of him, and was about to turn his head to say something to Sang Jing. Suddenly, he saw an incredible scene.
…
…
"Damn, why is there a fire in the south of the city?" Xu Jingchang fired a shot and knocked an Annan soldier to the ground. Just as he was about to retract his head, he suddenly saw a fire rising into the sky in the south of Duobang City.
.
"Our army of the Ming Dynasty is all in the north of the city at this time. Even the advance army led by Chang Jizong and the Annan people who defected to the Ming Dynasty are also in the northwest of the city. There is no one in the south!" Xu Jingchang retracted his head and shot the gun just now on his helmet.
He pulled out the arrow and said again.
"Sir, it's likely that the Annan army originally stationed in the south of the city saw that Duobang City was about to be lost and decided to do it anyway. Maybe this person has some relationship with Ruan Xun, and I hope Ruan Xun will give him a few good words."
Sun Bingwen from Baihu said.
"No need for Ruan Xun, I'll give him a few nice words!" Xu Jingchang said excitedly.
He couldn't help but be excited. Because at this time, although he had led troops to invade Duobang City, he was still struggling. If there was no external force to break the situation, it would be difficult to capture Duobang City.
After cutting down several trees as thick as a person's thigh from the forest and dragging them to the city gate, Xu Jingchang ordered the branches and leaves to be trimmed, divided the trees into several sections, pulled out the armors from the fallen generals, and put them on dozens of soldiers.
, each lifted a piece of wood and hit it against the city gate. With a "Duang" sound, the city gate, which had a broken bolt, was knocked open.
In an instant, countless arrows were shot from the open doorway, hitting the Ming army carrying the wood.
The Ming army carrying the wood was well prepared and immediately threw the wood in their hands to the ground. They also lay down and leaned against the wood. When they threw the wood to the ground, they deliberately tilted it at an angle so that it could be shot from the front.
Most of the arrows were blocked by the wood; even those who crossed the wood were all wearing armor and helmets. Most of them were unharmed, and only a few were slightly injured.
After the rain of arrows passed, Xu Jingchang led the rest of the soldiers to rush to the door, raised his hand and fired a volley of guns, making the other side scream in agony.
Xu Jingchang immediately put the musket in his hand on his back, took out the sword from his waist and rushed forward.
At this time, the Annan people on the opposite side were stunned by this volley of guns. Because it was too easy for the Ming army to conquer Polei Pass and other places before, Zhang Wen, Lan Zhen, Mu Sheng and others did not let the musketeers of the Zhiwei appear.
Although these Annan soldiers knew that there was a very luxurious "steel helmet army" in the Ming army, and they also knew that they were the elite of the Ming army, each armed with a musket as their main weapon, they still did not know the power of the volley.
Until this moment, they were just like the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty who fought against the British and French forces in the Second Opium War. They were fooled.
Of course Xu Jingchang didn't know why the Annan people opposite him were stunned, but this did not prevent him from killing the enemy at this time. He rushed in front of them, waved the simple knife in his hand and chopped off one of their heads, then turned sideways
Cut off half of the other man's head, and the red and white brains flew everywhere, like a glass of juice that had been touched. Other soldiers rushed over quickly and killed the Annan people. Soon the Annan people guarding near the door were wiped out.
Li Sanzhou, in particular, wielded his machete and slashed at the Annan people crazily. Several Annan soldiers who had knelt down to surrender were also hacked to death by him. Xu Jingchang wanted to leave a few alive, but he had no time to speak, so he had to admit it.
He leaned against the front line built by the Annamites with wood, stones and corpses, wiped the blood on his knife, took the musket from his back, loaded it with projectiles and gunpowder and stabbed it firmly with a skewer, took off his helmet and stabbed it with a stick.
The arrow that had hit it was about to come out and rush into the city again.
But as soon as he showed his head, an arrow hit his helmet. He hurriedly retracted his head, only to hear the "crack of thunder", and countless arrows hit the stone in front of him. At this time, Chen Yuan
The Annan soldiers who came from the top of the city to support them had already come down. When they saw that the defenders at the city gate had been wiped out, and the Ming army was about to continue to attack the city, they immediately drew their bows and arrows to stop the Ming army.
Xu Jingchang organized his soldiers several times to break through the enemy's blockade, but they were all beaten back, and he suffered heavy losses. The Annan soldiers on the opposite side were elite and occupied the commanding heights. As long as they showed their heads, they would have many arrows.
Shooting over, he couldn't get out at all. Xu Jingchang found that although he had entered the city, he still couldn't advance an inch, and the situation was even worse than when he was outside the city gate. At least he still had the initiative at that time, and now
At that time, they were blocked here. They couldn't advance if they wanted to, and it was not easy to retreat if they wanted to.
Xu Jingchang tried to persuade the other party to surrender. He said something like "Follow the imperial army, the benefits will be great" in Chinese. He was afraid that they would not understand, so he asked someone who could speak Annan to speak again in Annan, but the other party only cursed him.
There was no other sound besides the words. Someone else shouted loudly: "You even kill people who are kneeling down to beg for mercy. Even if we surrender, we will all be killed by them in the end. It is better to fight with you, even if we lose in the end."
Even if you kill one, you will be able to earn a profit, but if you kill two, you will earn a profit." Xu Jingchang could only smile bitterly.
However, he still did not give up the hope of victory. He saw an opportunity and led the soldiers to venture out and shoot for a while, killing several Annan soldiers. However, due to the terrain restrictions, the power of the volley was greatly reduced. He put down the gun.
, just as he was about to retract his head, he saw a fire burning to the south.
He was stunned for a moment, then blurted out the words he just said, and an arrow shot over and hit him in the head. He was startled and hid behind a stone.
He asked all the soldiers to shout in unison in the Annan dialect they had learned temporarily: "There is a fire in the south of the city! Duobang City has been captured!"
When Annan's army who was fighting with him on the opposite side heard this, he subconsciously turned around and looked behind him. He saw the fire soaring into the sky and was immediately stunned.
Sun Bingwen popped his head out secretly and looked at the Annan soldiers in front. When he saw them all looking at their backs blankly, he shouted: "Kill!" The Ming soldiers immediately stood up from behind the block, raised their muskets and fired in a burst, and then
Rushed over.
The Annan people's front on the opposite side immediately collapsed. A fire broke out in the south of Duobang City. Duobang City had been breached. It was meaningless for them to continue to hold on. At this time, they all ran to the east.
At the same time, the shouts in Annan language on the top of the city could no longer be heard. Instead, there were various sounds that made people feel frightened when they heard them. The Dobang City was broken!
