Chapter 1840 Separate pots to attack the city
What happened was just as Zhu Pingan expected. After the reinforcements arrived, the Japanese pirates made intensive preparations for the siege. Ladders were carried to the front and moved in After hitting the wood, the Japanese pirate leaders, big and small, were running back and forth, organizing their teams, selecting the Japanese pirates who would board first, and putting armor on them, and the archers were also gathered together.
The siege of the city is about to begin.
The posture of more than 20,000 Japanese pirates was very scary. They were like black clouds covering the city. Except for the Zhejiang Army, the other defenders on the city including Magistrate Shang and others were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they could hardly breathe. Almost suffocating.
A few hundred Japanese pirates had just attacked the city, and they were all frightened to death, let alone the more than 20,000 Japanese pirates outside the city.
After experiencing today's fighting, they finally understood that the Japanese pirates who attacked the city before were just a joke. Just now, when the Japanese pirates attacked the city, in order to lower their morale, they also personally revealed that the Japanese pirates who attacked the city before The Japanese pirates in the city are not real Japanese pirates. They are all ordinary people captured by the Japanese pirates and deliberately come to die. The purpose is to show the enemy's weakness, inflate their self-confidence, and lure them out of the city to pursue the Japanese pirates.
In the end, that idiot General Wang really fell into the trap. He went out of the city to pursue the Japanese pirates and was captured by the Japanese pirates. In order to survive, he surrendered to the Japanese pirates. He also helped the Japanese pirates to falsely open the city gate and led and protected the Japanese pirates into the city
< br>Now that I think about it, I get chills in my head. I was so close, just so close, that the Japanese pirates’ conspiracy succeeded.
Fortunately, Master Zhu and the Zhejiang Army's magic soldiers descended from the sky and saved Suzhou City, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Oh, talking about General Wang.
At this moment, General Wang is still under the city. Speaking of which, this guy is also a tough guy. He was hit by several muskets at the beginning and fell to the ground. When the Zhejiang army and the Japanese pirates fought for the door, he was trampled on countless times, but he is still there until now. He is still alive, and even has the strength to shout for help. It is indeed a disaster to live for thousands of years.
"Sir Shang, save me. I was coerced, I was forced, and my heart goes to Yuhu."
General Wang was lying on the ground, bleeding from his mouth and nose. , miserable and miserable, stretched out his hand to the city wall, calling for help.
"You surnamed Wang, you betrayed your king for glory and took refuge with the Japanese pirates, and you were in vain as a minister; you led the Japanese to deceive the city, and ignored the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and you were in vain as a son of man; for these two major crimes, you Even if you die a thousand times, it won’t be a pity, you He still had the nerve to shout for help, but I can’t wait to kill you, a bastard who has no ruler and no people.”
When Magistrate Shang heard that General Wang had the nerve to shout for help from the city, he couldn’t help but get angry and covered his face with anger! A scolding.
"I was dismissed." General Wang said shamelessly.
“You can choose to be loyal to His Majesty, so that after your death, your concubines and children can be prosperous and wealthy; at least after you enter the city, you will have many opportunities to warn the city. Unfortunately, you chose to sell to others for glory. You will be able to enjoy your life after death, but you will be in disgrace for thousands of years in the future!"
Prefect Shang sneered at his sophistry.
Seeing that calling for help inside the city was useless, General Wang immediately changed direction and shouted for help to the Hou Kou who were preparing to attack the city.
"King Xu, all heroes, I am yours. I led you. I also helped you deceive the city. And you have all heard it, right? After I entered the city, I did not inform the city. ,I I am loyal to your army, and I ask you all to save my life. The defense of Suzhou City is all in my mind. You still need me when you attack the city. I will definitely do your best for you all."< br>
In order to survive, General Wang tried his best to flatter the Japanese pirates and completely gave up all moral integrity.
"Just think of it as a thousand pieces of gold to buy a horse bone, but you have to save me. Otherwise, how will the general dare to serve your army in the future."
General Wang shouted again.
After hearing this, Xu Hai was convinced and nodded. Yes, the man named Wang is still useful and cannot die yet.
“Go, carry him back, and let Tu Langzhong take a look at him. Stop the bleeding that needs to be stopped, and treat the injuries that need to be treated.”
Xu Hai ordered his men to carry General Wang back.
"You are extremely shameless. Come here, strengthen your bows and crossbows. Zi Hou, you also send your magic gunners to target the man named Wang. He is not decent, so we will help him to be decent, so that he will not do what he did. More things that will bring shame to our ancestors."
Prefect Shang ordered angrily.
It is not a pity to die for such a traitor. Zhu Ping'an naturally agreed with ten thousand people and immediately arranged for people to take aim.
Suddenly thousands of arrows were fired. Not only did General Wang die, but even the two Japanese pirates who went to carry him became dead souls under the arrows.
"Baga!"
The Japanese pirates were furious when they saw this, and the crowd was excited.
"The men are so angry that it's a good time to attack the city. Let's order the attack." Maye and Chen Dong looked at Xu Hai.
“Attack the city!”
Xu Hai nodded without hesitation. Although he knew that the siege was doomed to fail, he had to shoot the arrow when the arrow was on the string, and the siege failed, not all bad thing. At least the blame for the failure of the Suzhou Raiders can be given to Maye and Chen Dong. Let them bear the blame together with themselves, which is better than shouldering it alone.
So, under the command of Xu Hai and others, the Japanese pirate army began to attack the city.
The Japanese pirates rushed toward the city wall with ladders. Hundreds of Japanese pirates with big shoulders and round waists rushed to the city gate carrying wooden blocks. Thousands of Japanese archers shot arrows at the city head to cover the Japanese pirates who set up ladders and wooden blocks. Siege the city.
"What are you still doing stupidly? Shooting arrows, aiming at the Japanese pirates attacking the city."
"Asshole, what are you hiding from? If you don't have a bow and arrow, just throw rocks at me. Japanese pirates. ”
< br>"Why haven't the reinforcements from the other city gates arrived yet? Lieutenant General, please quickly send someone to see why the other city gates haven't sent reinforcements yet. Take my order and order them to send troops to support quickly. If they don't send troops, I will take them." It’s a question!”
After the Japanese pirates began to attack the city, there was a panic on the city. Magistrate Shang hurriedly directed the defenders on the city to attack the Japanese pirates. The command was a bit chaotic. He commanded what he thought of and there was no order. Zhu Pingan shook his head a little.
In view of the command loopholes of Shang Zhifu, Zhu Pingan made up for it and directed the Zhejiang army to focus on attacking the archers gathered by the Japanese pirates.
Concentrate your firepower and fire thousands of muskets to suppress the Japanese archers.
The archers of the Japanese pirates caused many casualties to the defenders on the city, which made the defenders shrink back. They also covered the Japanese pirates' climbing ladders onto the city and bumping against trees and gates.
They are the biggest threat to the siege, and they must be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, the defenders on the city would not be able to use their hands and feet to attack the Japanese pirates.
The Zhejiang army was located high up, and was protected by the city wall. Facing the Japanese archers below the city, the advantage was not as great as usual.
Bang, bang, bang
With bursts of smoke-filled firecrackers, the Japanese pirate archers in the city fell one after another. The attrition was serious. After a while, nearly 30% of the archers were lost. The casualties caused by the Japanese archers to the Zhejiang Army were almost zero.
As the Zhejiang army's gunfire became more powerful, the Japanese archers suffered heavy casualties and were beaten so hard that they could hardly lift their heads.
The pressure on the defenders on the city was immediately reduced, and the casualties were greatly reduced. (End of chapter)
