: Kill as much as you come

In Datong City, the defenders were already ready for battle.

Wang Pu asked Zhao Liujin's 3,000 Datong border troops to be divided into three teams, guarding the north, west and south gates, and asked Zhao Xin to lead a team of fifteen hundred people. In order to help Zhao Liujin defend the city, in order to boost morale and boost the morale of the army, Wang Pu promised that regardless of whether Jiannu would launch an attack from the north, west and south gates, each person would be rewarded with 100 taels of silver after repelling Jiannu!

Wang Pu's firearm battalion had a total of 50 hundred-man teams. Except for the fifteen people taken away by Zhao Xin, the remaining 35 hundred-man teams and Xiao Qi's 500 teams all gathered in the east gate. Big Bearded Man and Scarface each led 500 people to guard the city walls on both sides of the gap, and the remaining 3,000 people all gathered in the gap.

The open space in the gap has changed a lot at this time, and Wang Pu has built a slaughterhouse to massacre Jiannu.

Last night, Wang Pu asked Wei Daben to take more than 10,000 Minzhuang to spend a whole night to modify and strengthen the fortifications in the gap. The shoulder-length low wall moved back thirty steps, and it was no longer parallel to the city wall, but built annular fortifications with the gap as the center.

Wei Daben also led Min Zhuang to dig a large pit in the semicircular area within the ring fortification. The shallow edge of the center of the pit was deep, and the depth was two meters near the edge of the ring fortification. In this way, the height of the low wall formed a broken wall of more than three meters. Without tools, it was not easy for Jiannu to climb a broken wall of more than three meters with his bare hands.

Of course, it is even more difficult for Jiannu to rush under the broken wall more than three meters high through the gap.

This semicircular pit with a radius of fifty steps (about 75 meters) and a concave edge of the center is the slaughterhouse carefully prepared by Wang Pu for Jiannu. The capacity of this slaughterhouse is large enough. Wang Pu asked Zhen Youcai to estimate it. Without 30,000 to 50,000 corpses, Jiannu would not want to fill this pit!

The bloody military flag had been inserted into the semicircular fortification because it had a special meaning. Wang Pu did not make anyone modify it. It still retained its original rough appearance, without borders or banners. The only difference is that the cross pattern stained with blood had faded its original bright red and turned into a dark red.

However, compared with the original bright red, the dark red color has more solemnity and solemnity.

Lu Liu, with ten musketeers, stood beside the military flag with his head held high and his chest held high.

Wang Pu once said that this military flag is the soul of this army. Wherever the flag is, Wang Pu is where his army is. People are there, the flag is there, and people are there, and the flag is lost.

Unless the entire army is wiped out, this bloody military flag will never fall into the hands of the enemy.

Under the floating military flag, Wang Pu stood in front of Wang Pu. Three Thousand Musketeers were lined up in neat formation, and the three thousand murderous eyes were already focused on Wang Pu.

Outside Datong City, the rumbling cannons had not dissipated, the smoke and dust on the broken walls were still churning, and the noise from thousands of Jiannu had already resounded throughout the sky. But all this could no longer make the soldiers of the Firearm Battalion nervous. Even the new recruits were already growing up in fierce fighting with the thieves and Jiannu, and they grew up into a qualified veteran.

The north wind is strong and the smoke disperses.

The chill of early spring still enveloped Datong, but the soldiers of the Firearms camp felt the scorching murderous intent from Wang Pu's eyes, the kind of burning heat that could cook and burn people!

Wang Pu took a deep breath of air conditioning, his eyes flashed across the faces of the soldiers, and shouted loudly: "Last August, when I was in Songshan, many people once told me that Jiannu was very powerful. Their Eight Banners Army was invincible, and our Ming Dynasty army would never defeat them!"

The eyes of the three thousand soldiers suddenly showed dissatisfaction. They would never admit that Jiannu was invincible!

"They said that in the Battle of Sarhu, our Ming Dynasty was defeated; in the Battle of Fushunsou, our Ming Dynasty was also defeated; in the Battle of Iron, our Ming Dynasty was defeated again; in the Battle of Shenyang, our Ming Dynasty was still defeated. In less than twenty years, our Ming Dynasty lost a large area of ​​land in Liaodong, and hundreds of thousands of Ming soldiers died outside the cold gates. Therefore, the invincible army of Jiannu's Eight Banners!"

After Wang Pu said that, he shouted loudly, "Is that true?"

"no!"

"no!"

"no!"

The soldiers responded with a loud bang, and the loud sound surged into the sky.

"Well said, no, it's definitely not like this!" Wang Pu raised his arms and shouted, "I only brought a thousand lonely troops to capture Jiannu's nest Shengjing. The three thousand iron guards of the slave chief Huang Taiji are powerful enough, right? They were still killed by the musket team of less than one thousand lands, and even Huang Taiji became a captive to this general!"

The soldiers' eyes showed an excited look.

"This time, Jiannu gathered 150,000 troops to attack Datong. Someone told me that Jiannu was invincible and we could not defeat him. Resistance was a dead end. It would be better to open the city as soon as possible." Wang Pu said this, and his tone suddenly became particularly shrill, "But, I want to say, no! We will never surrender, and we will not be afraid of Jiannu!"

"Not afraid!"

"Not afraid!"

"Not afraid!"

The soldiers of the three armies responded with a loud bang, and the officials and soldiers standing solemnly on the city and the Datong Minzhuang, the old, young, women and children who were crowded on the streets in the distance also shouted hysterically.

Wang Pu raised his hand suddenly, and the shouts of the soldiers of the three armies stopped abruptly as if they were cut by a knife. On the long street, the shouts of the people of Datong gradually subsided.

Wang Pu turned around and faced the gap, suddenly pulled out his waist knife and raised it over the top, shouting loudly: "Let them come, we will kill as much as we come! Kill the slave!"

"Kill the slave!"

"Kill the slave!"

"Kill the slave!"

The soldiers of the three armies roared at the top of their lungs, and then the officials on the top of the city and the people crowded on the streets in the distance also roared at the top of their lungs. The roars of tens of thousands of people instantly gathered into a huge sound like a tsunami, breaking through the clouds and spreading through the night.

"The first team..." Amid the trench of landslides and tsunami, the roar of monk Zhang's thunder exploded, "Prepare!"

The first team of 200 musketeers quickly stepped forward and spread along the half-ring fortification. Two hundred musketeers had been mounted on the fortification. The black muzzle had been aimed at the gap fifty steps away. Two hundred musketeers were distributed in an annular shape, so that the gap could be covered with crossfire.

Of course, in order not to injure one's own people, the two fortifications closest to the city wall are not fortified by musketeers, but those two fortifications are also very high. If Jiannu wants to go around both sides, it is obviously a delusion, and he will be bombarded by the Dragon King's cannon on the top of the city.

With the tide of shouting, Jiannu finally rushed to the nearest gap, and the real fierce battle began.

The musketeers guarding the city headed and looked under the city wall, and saw that there were Jiannu densely covered with Jiannu, just like an ant, throwing a stone down. It would definitely hit several Jiannu.

However, this time Jiannu was obviously prepared. At the front, Jiannu was close to the city wall, all of whom were holding shields. These shields were thick and large. Hundreds of shields gathered together to form a solid shield wall. A lighter rolling wood and rock hitting it on it would not pose any threat at all.

The Dragon King Cannon hit the wall of the oar shield, and could only blow up one or two shields, and soon another oar shield would be filled. It was built again to build a shield wall, and it was precisely with the cover of the shield wall that the subsequent Jiannu rushed to the foot of the city wall. Some grounds began to destroy the wall, while others began to attack the gap.

The bearded man found that the Dragon King Cannon was not effective in killing. He suddenly remembered a tactic that Wang Pu had taught, and shouted to the musketeers behind him: "That who, please bring me a few more Dragon King Cannons. I don't believe this evil. Today I have to blow up these bitches to death.

"yes."

Several musketeers responded with a loud promise and handed over the Dragon King cannon in their hands.

The bearded man took at least seven or eight Dragon King Cannons, picked up a hemp rope and tied them into a ball. He first twisted the leads of the Dragon King Cannon into one piece, and then ignited it with a fire twister, and then threw a bundle of Dragon King Cannons out of the city with force.

The weight of the Dragon King Cannon is actually not light, and it will be even heavier if it is tied up seven or eight pieces. When the blocked shield is smashed, it is immediately smashed to the side, and a gap is revealed between the shields. The bundle of the Dragon King Cannon, which is emitting black smoke, rolls under the shield wall along the gap.

"Boom boom boom..."

Seven or eight Dragon King Cannons exploded at the same time, dozens of Jiannu rose into the air with the dazzling black smoke, and dozens of heavy shields flew into the air. The bodies of dozens of Jiannu's bodies were torn into pieces in the air. A large piece of Jiannu's shield wall was instantly lifted off and became incomplete.

"Haha." The bearded man laughed, "Did you see it? Just throw it away! Kill these bitches to death."

"yes."

The musketeers on the city wall responded, picked up several Dragon King cannons from the bamboo basket, then found a few ropes to tie them together, and then twisted the leads together with the big beard, then used the fire twister to ignite the leads and then threw them out of the city. Soon, several huge black smoke exploded outside the city.

In less than a moment, the shield wall near the left side of the gap had been blown to pieces and could no longer provide protection for Jiannu.

However, Jiannu was not powerless to fight back, especially Jiannu's archers and the five red cannons from Tong Yangxing in the distance, which caused considerable casualties to the Ming army on the top of the city.

A musketeer ignited a bundle of Dragon King Cannons. As soon as he straightened his waist and tried to throw the bundle of Dragon King Cannons down the city wall, a sharp arrow shot into the air and ruthlessly shot through his throat. The musketeer suddenly raised his eyes, hissing and sucking the air conditioner in his throat, and no longer had the strength to throw the bundle of Dragon King Cannons down.

"puff!"

The Dragon King Cannon in the dark smoke fell at the foot of the musketeer.

The next moment, eight Dragon King cannons tied together exploded. In addition to the musketeer who had been shot to death, six musketeers were directly torn to pieces by huge air waves. In addition, more than a dozen musketeers were knocked off the city by air waves, landed in the Jiannu Rebellion Army, and were quickly hacked to death by random knives.

Also, the bearded man was also killed.

At that time, the bearded man had just thrown down a bundle of Dragon King cannons and killed dozens of Jiannu. He was laughing proudly at the sky, and suddenly heard an extremely shrill scream that almost flew past his forehead. The bearded man was suddenly surprised. When he turned around and looked into the city, he happened to see a huge ball of black smoke blooming in the city. A house collapsed in an instant and turned into a ruin.

"Bastard, it seems to be the flowering bullet of the Red Cannon!"

The bearded man scratched his head. When he was at a loss, another shrill roar rushed towards the city. This time, the red cannon blossomed bullet hit the city directly, and exploded at the foot of the bearded man. The war was ruthless, and the red cannon blossomed bullet did not fly around because the bearded man was Wang Pu's confidant.

"boom!"

After a deafening loud noise, smoke and dust filled the city, and gravel splashed. The strong body of the bearded man was torn into countless pieces. Only one head was intact and flew away in the air. It landed outside the city, and its eyes widened until death.

The Ming army musketeers guarding the city were exposed to the direct attacks of Jiannu archers and the red barbarian cannons, so many casualties were suffered. However, Jiannu's casualties were even more severe, especially the two thousand Han army Eight Banners led by Shi Tingzhu and Li Yongfang. Because they were closest to the city wall, they became the target of the focus of the Dragon King cannon bombing, and more than half of them had been injured and killed!

"General, the Dragon King cannon in the Ming Arms Battalion is too powerful. I can't stand it anymore."

"Yes, retreat quickly, otherwise the brothers will explain it to you here."

"We are almost dead, but the bastard Jiannu and the Mongolian Tatars hid behind and were happy and stopped doing it, and the brothers stopped doing it."

Seeing the heavy casualties of the Eight Banners of the Han Army, several subordinates began to clamor and urged Li Yongfang and Shi Tingzhu to retreat.

"Nonsense!" Li Yongfang hid under the wall of the oar and shield and said furiously, "Shut up, even if you all die here today, you must not take a step back!"

Li Yongfang was originally a guerrilla general in the Fushun Institute of the Ming Dynasty. After Nurhaci captured Fushun, he surrendered to Jiannu. At first, he was quite respected by Jiannu. Nurhaci even married his daughter to Li Yongfang. However, as the power of Jiannu became stronger, Li Yongfang's status gradually declined. Now he has become a dog of Jiannu.

Before the attack began, Dorgon had already given a death order to Li Yongfang. If he could not defeat Datong this time, he, Shi Tingzhu and the eight banners of the Han army led by the two, he would not want to return to the camp alive. Things were already obvious. If you retreat, you would undoubtedly die. You might have a glimmer of hope to move forward!

"boom!"

As Li Yongfang finished speaking, a bunch of Dragon King Cannons rolled down beside him in black smoke. Before Li Yongfang could react, the Dragon King Cannons gathered in black smoke and exploded. Li Yongfang and the dozen Han army Jiannu who were surrounded by him were blown to the sky in an instant.

Li Yongfang's body was blown into two pieces at the waist, and the lower half and his legs were torn into pieces. The upper half flew out ten steps away and landed on the shield wall. Li Yongfang, who was still not dead, actually supported the shield wall with his hands and crawled forward several steps, dragging a bloody path on the shield wall.

The Eight Banners of the Han army responsible for demolishing the city walls suffered heavy casualties, while the Eight Banners of the Mongolian army responsible for the attack gap also suffered heavy casualties.

Under the cross-coverage of the Ming army's firepower, it was difficult for the Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers to rush through the gap to rush to the circular fortifications. Almost all the Mongolian Eight Banners soldiers were intensively shot and killed by Ming army musketeers after just crossing the gap. The fierce battle lasted for less than half an hour, and the circular pit was already covered with Jiannu's corpses.

"kill……"

Amid the tide of shouting, the Mongolian flag soldiers pulled up their legs, waved their scimitars and jumped into the gap, stepped on the bodies of their tribesmen and rushed towards the circular fortifications guarded by the Ming army musketeers. The Mongolians were eagles on the horse's back, but once they left the war horse, they would become overshadowed.

"boom……"

"boom……"

"boom……"

Rows of dense bullets roared, and finally rushed through the gap and fell down one by one. Many Mongolian flag soldiers were directly killed, while more Mongolian flag soldiers were only seriously injured and lie in pools of blood and struggled and wailed. However, at most they would die of blood loss in just one cup of tea.

Some Mongolian flag soldiers also escaped the Ming army's musketeers and rushed to the front of the ring fortification. However, the three-meter-high broken wall became an insurmountable gap for the Mongols. One after another, the Dragon King cannon flew over from behind the Ming army's ring fortification, and the Mongols crowded under the broken wall were blown away, causing flesh and blood to fly.
