Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 28 Preparations are complete, set fire to break the city!
Even Wang Tianba, the well-informed lieutenant general, was at a loss right now, unable to figure out what the red scarf thieves outside the city were going to do.

"My lord, are the thieves already going to burn down the city wall?" A soldier reminded him.

Lieutenant General Wang Tianba explained it to them.

If the hole is attacked to the bottom of the city wall, a huge hole will be dug out, and it will be supported by a piece of wood. Just burn the wood before leaving, and the city wall above will collapse.

"Fart! It's only been a day. How could the thief dig it here? Do you think it's a dog hole?"

Wang Tian scolded.

For a moment, everyone murmured.

"It seems that I'm still a little ignorant. If Lord Luo were here, I might be able to see through what tricks the thief is hiding!"

Wang Tianba thought hard, but he couldn't figure out how to explain the strange behavior of the red scarf outside the city.

"Go and invite Master Luo!"

In the end, Vice General Wang Tianba decided to ask Master Zhizhou to take a look in person just to be on the safe side.

The soldiers who received the order quickly stepped down the city wall, and just turned the corner of the street, they met Luo Wenqing, the magistrate of Haozhou, who was patrolling the street.

"Master Luo, there is something wrong with the thief, Vice General Wang invites you to check it out!"

When Luo Wenqing heard this, his heart immediately shivered.

Afterwards, with the support of the crowd, Luo Zhizhou quickly climbed up the city wall.

Luo Wenqing, the magistrate of Haozhou, climbed up the city wall out of breath, and saw the red scarf outside the city retreat a lot.

"Vice General Wang, what's going on?" Luo Wenqing asked immediately.

"My lord, this is where the culprits are weird. The last general can't understand it, so I have to ask my lord to come and inspect it in person!" Wang Tianba said respectfully.

Afterwards, Wang Tianba described a series of actions of the red scarf outside the city.

Even Mr. Luo Wenqing, who is more knowledgeable and knowledgeable, is still confused.

"It's all right, what's the thief doing fifty steps back?"

"Could it be to lure our army to attack?"

"Or is there an internal response in the city?"

Lord Luo, the magistrate of Haozhou, thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand it.

Anyway, everything in the city is stable now, even if the thieves outside the city play tricks, they will never let themselves go out of Haozhou City.

"Whatever his schemes and tricks, I will stand still. How could the thieves make the city wall of Haozhou fly?"

Luo Wenqing ordered the deputy general Wang Tianba to continue to hold on, and then slowly walked down the city wall along the steps.

. . . . .

Outside Haozhou city.

Zhu Chongba led the red scarf army back fifty steps.

Then he stopped and stared at the Haozhou city wall in front of him without moving.

They all knew that Zhu Qiwu planned to use gunpowder to blow down the city wall of Haozhou.

Regarding such a bizarre idea, everyone except Zhu Chongba was full of doubts.

but.

When Zhu Qiwu lit the fuze, as time went by, Zhu Chongba's confidence was gradually weakening.

"Qiwu, can it really work?"

"Qiwu, are you sure the fire is on?"

"Qiwu, is the gunpowder for a coffin a little short?"

"Qiwu, it's been such a long time, why hasn't there been any movement?"

Zhu Qiwu never knew that his brother was so good at chattering.

In fact, he was already anxiously waiting in his heart.

Zhu Qiwu even began to suspect that if Hu Yiba and the others left in the end, would they accidentally break the gunpowder fuze?

Or, would there be a sudden seepage of water in the tunnel, causing the fuze to go out?
The soldiers of the rebel army, who had been engrossed in waiting, had gradually begun to relax.

Most of the soldiers guessed that Zhu Qiwu's coffin of gunpowder was probably a dumb fart!

How thick is the city wall of Haozhou? How can a mere coffin of gunpowder be of any use?

Zhu Chongba also let out a long sigh, patted Zhu Qiwu on the shoulder, and said encouragingly.

"Qiwu, it's okay, let's think about it..."

suddenly!

A violent tremor came from the soles of his feet, and Zhu Chongba's words were cut off in half.

All the rebels felt this tremor, and some even fell to the ground in fright.

Immediately afterwards, there was another loud bang.

boom!
Zhu Qiwu only felt that the trembling under his feet hadn't ended yet, and he received another heavy blow in his ears.

There was a ringing in his ears.

A huge cloud of yellow dust rose up from the location of Haozhou City, straight into the sky!
The dust that filled the sky even covered up half of Haozhou City!
Zhu Qiwu felt ecstatic in his heart.

"It's done!"

. . .

Haozhou City Wall.

After Luo Wenqing gave some instructions, he walked down the city wall slowly, leaving Lieutenant General Wang Tianba to continue to stand firm.

As Luo Wenqing walked, he wondered about the purpose of the thieves' strange actions outside the city.

The more he thought about it, the more he lost his mind, and even felt dizzy for a while.

In order to arrange the city defense, Mr. Luo stayed up almost all night.

Not only is his head a little dizzy now, but even his steps are trembling.

Huh?
It seems that it's not the trembling of his own feet, but the trembling of the ground?

Luo Wenqing only felt his legs go limp, and his feet were empty, and he fell to the ground.

Then, there was a roar of thunder coming from behind.

Before Luo Wenqing got up to check, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, face and body.

Crackling!

A burst of rubble and rammed earth unexpectedly fell from the sky, hitting Luo Wenqing like raindrops.

Poor Mr. Luo, he was smashed with blood all over his face in a blink of an eye.

"what happened?!"

Luo Wenqing was shocked and angry.

He covered the wound on his head with one hand, and stood up while leaning on the wall of the street with the other.

The surrounding servants and officials were also in a panic.

There were even two unlucky ones laying motionless on the ground, obviously knocked to death by stoning and knocked unconscious.

"What's going on..."

As soon as Luo Wenqing turned around, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The section of the Haozhou city wall that was heavily defended turned out to be missing!
The thick rammed earth city wall is now only left with a slope.

Through the gap in the slope, Luo Wenqing even saw the flag of the red scarf outside the city.

Do justice for the heavens!

The bandit flag fluttered in the wind, as if it was showing off its might.

"It's over, it's over!"

Luo Wenqing staggered and collapsed to the ground in an instant.

A section of the city wall of Haozhou was torn off by thieves out of thin air!
"quick!"

"Go and seal the gap!"

Luo Wenqing, the magistrate of Haozhou, suddenly came to his senses. He struggled to get up, led a few servants and officials, and rushed towards the collapsed city wall.

However, no matter how he yelled, there were no soldiers around to respond.

When he arrived at the gap in the city wall, he couldn't help being frightened by the tragedy in front of him.

Haozhou lieutenant general Wang Tianba, who was full of confidence just now, is now half buried under the collapsed city wall, only a chubby head is exposed, but it is obvious that he has lost his breath.

The surrounding Haozhou defenders were either dead or injured.

The few soldiers who were completely hands and feet were all deaf and dizzy from the shock. They fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

"Closing the gap!"

"Quickly plug the gap!"

Luo Wenqing dragged several soldiers and yelled loudly, but none of them could get up and obey orders.

at this time.

woo woo woo woo!

A loud horn sounded from outside the city, and Luo Wenqing looked up in astonishment.

I saw the flags of the red scarf thieves flying outside the city of Haozhou, and thousands of people rushed towards the gap in the city wall!
