Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 411: Attacked from both inside and outside, surrounded!
The fourth prince of Ming Dynasty!

Hai Tong was fully conscious in an instant and shouted: "Enemy attack! Archers! Archers! Get ready!"

"Come on, come down to the city! Go down to the city, block the city gate, block the city gate!"

……

As Hai Tong shouted, the chaos caused by the explosion began to calm down.

At this time, Zhu Di had already rushed within two hundred steps.

Zhu Di took the lead, holding a blunderbuss in both hands, and ran at the front.

The open city gate is just ahead, just ahead...

Look along the city gate.

Inside the urn city, there are already many people.

The Yuan Army garrison must have sent troops to block the city gate.

Must be fast!
"Hurry up!"

Sun Yuanchu's face turned pale as he ran. Seeing that he was thrown away by Zhu Di, he tried his best to increase his speed and at the same time, he desperately shouted to the brothers in the first battalion behind him.

If the prince has three advantages and two disadvantages.

He, Sun Yuanchu, was too embarrassed to face his brothers.

tom tom tom...

The dull sound of artillery suddenly sounded.

They are the artillery of the Beiyuan Army at the head of the city, and the Army's First Artillery Battalion in the distance.

Both sides fired cannons almost simultaneously.

Yang Dongxu stood next to the artillery camp, pursed his lips tightly, and bit his lips with his teeth. Blood began to ooze, but he did not notice it.

His eyes were fixed on the tall and vague figure rushing towards the city gate in the firelight.

Many tents outside the city have been set alight.

Thick smoke, fire...

The war has not yet reached its most intense intensity.

The atmosphere seemed to foreshadow the course of this battle in advance.

Bang bang bang!
The dense projectiles whizzed towards the city in the blink of an eye.

The female wall above the city gate collapsed instantly.

Rubbles splashed at the top and bottom of the city.

Yang Dongxu looked at a projectile and landed directly in front of Zhu Di. He bit his lip fiercely and his face turned pale instantly.

Turning around suddenly: "What's the gun? What's the gun? It fell outside the city!"

"NO.15 gun!" came a cry with a cry.

Yang Dongxu rushed over...

The shelling continued.

Zhu Di led the soldiers of the first battalion and continued to rush forward on the artillery point.

Just a hundred steps away.

For a moment, it seemed very long.

It makes people anxious.

At the top of the city, Haitong pushed away several soldiers who had turned into corpses to protect him. He shook his head, his ears were ringing, and he stood up unsteadily.

The first time I saw Zhu Di with a golden epaulette on his shoulder.

"The Fourth Prince of Ming Dynasty!"

He yelled with all his strength, "Archer, shoot! Shoot!"

A captain of thousands listened to the roaring sound in the darkness in the distance, and desperately pulled the sea boy: "Captain of thousands! Let's go! Let's go quickly! The Ming army is shelling!"

"Get away! Quick! Save the Fourth Prince of Sheming, save the Fourth Prince of Sheming!"

bang bang bang...

Another round of three-stage artillery fire came.

The captain threw the sea boy under him.

at the same time.

Zhu Di rushed into the city gate with the sound of flying rubble and rattan military caps hitting him.

bang bang bang...

The Beiyuan Army rushed out of the city gate and met the first battalion's intensive volleys of gun fire.

It fell down in an instant.

The survivors turned around in fear and wanted to escape.

The Yuan army behind them, under the urging of their generals, pushed forward desperately.

After Zhu Di shot, he inserted his gun sword and shouted: "Kill!"

"kill!"

Behind him, the soldiers of the first battalion led by Sun Yuanchu shouted.

The two torrents collided instantly in the narrow city gate.

The scimitars used by the Yuan army were at a disadvantage when faced with longer fire blunderbuss with blunderbuss inserted into them.

The Yuan army slashed with their swords.

Before they could touch the soldiers of the first battalion led by Zhu Di, a forest white blunderbuss sword struck out, poking holes in the bodies of the Yuan soldiers.

"prick!"

"prick!"

……

Sun Yuanchu shouted, the soldiers around him fell, and the soldiers behind him came up.

The soldiers at the back nervously loaded their ammunition quickly, then held up the blunderbuss with both hands, over the heads of their own soldiers, and fired towards the front.

The entire battalion of soldiers gradually poured into the city gate cave.

City head.

Kaidong pushed away Qianhu, who had been hit in the head by gravel and died in the battle. He struggled to get up and heard the distant roar coming again.

After glancing at the collapsed city tower, he evacuated the section of the city wall where the artillery battalion focused its attack.

After it is safe, visually inspect the entire battle situation.

The city was in chaos.

Just a few moments.

The Fourth Prince of Bu Guangming led a group of new troops to break into the city gate. Even the top of the city was breached. There were several climbing points at the top of the city. The warriors from the first town of the Army led their soldiers and fought fiercely to expand the climbing points.

Haitong summoned a commander of a thousand men and kept giving orders to adjust the troops according to the situation at the top of the city.

The chaos in the city gradually subsided.

Tan Yuan, Zhang Wu, Xu Huizu and others led the attack on the climbing point at the top of the city, and the pressure suddenly increased.

Haitong looked towards the west of the city.

He also hid an ambush of a thousand elite scouts in the west of the city.

Unexpected, cautious move.

Now it is going to play a big role!

blah blah blah...

The sound of hurried footsteps came, and a captain rushed over with a pale face and said in panic: "General, the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty is charging very hard. The soldiers cannot withstand it and are retreating inside the city gate!"

After hearing this, Hai Tong laughed.

Then he ordered: "Let the soldiers attract the fourth prince of Ming Dynasty to Wengcheng!"

He wants to catch a turtle in an urn!

Haitong's eyes fell on the bottom of the city wall, twenty or thirty steps away. He was not afraid of death. He stood up to the rain of arrows and fired at the city wall to provide support for the army's first town infantry to climb the city.

"Go to the west of the city and send an order to the commander of the scout team to charge the enemy troops below the city!"

……

Three miles away, next to the artillery camp position.

Yang Dongxu observed the top of the city, turned around and suggested: "Uncle Wen, the master has already rushed into the barbican city. The most important thing now is that Uncle Tan and the others quickly make achievements at the top of the city and drive away the Yuan soldiers. I suggest that the artillery battalion should be [-] steps closer to the city. Wherever there are more Yuan troops, bombard them!"

The two artillery battalion leaders headed by Wen Qi laughed instantly.

After all, he is the prince's student.

"it is good!"

Wen Qi immediately accepted Yang Dongxu's suggestion.

Then he turned around and ordered: "Stop this round of artillery volleys, push the artillery cart, rush forward, rush to five hundred steps away from the city, and fire the guns and swords!"

As he spoke, he had already taken the lead in pushing up an artillery piece, and with the cooperation of several soldiers, he rushed forward.

rumbling...

kill!kill!kill!

Yang Dongxu had just assisted several brothers in the artillery battalion to push up a gun carriage when he suddenly heard the rumble of horse hooves from the west and suddenly raised his head.

His complexion suddenly changed.

As far as the eye can see.

Qian Yuqi suddenly rushed out from the corner of Xicheng.

Rush all the way towards the soldiers who are attacking the city.

"Quick! Quick! Notify Uncle Zhou!"

rumbling...

When Yang Dongxu screamed urgently, a roar came from behind.

Haha ...

Amid hearty laughter, Zhou Lang led the cavalrymen passing by and shouted: "Don't worry, boy Dongxu!"

The sound still lingers behind.

Zhou Lang had already galloped his horse diagonally towards the west, rushing towards the Yuan army's scout team.

……

The infantry brothers in the first army town near the west of the city.

Seeing more than a thousand riders rushing towards him.

Didn't collapse in panic.

Under the leadership of team officers at all levels, they completely ignored the attack of the Yuan army at the top of the city and turned to the Yuan army's scout team.

"put!"

Bang bang bang!
After a round of firing.

More than a hundred soldiers placed their guns and swords, smashed the butts of their guns on the ground with a bang, and stepped on the butts of their guns.

Both hands tilt to hold the gun.

The gun sword tilted forward.

Bow slightly and lower your center of gravity.

Every soldier faced the rushing Yuan army cavalry without fear of death.

boom!
The war horses collided with a small 'forest of guns' formed by more than a hundred guns and swords.

After spending 80 people, the Yuan army's scout team submerged this small square formation.

bang bang bang...

But another phalanx was already waiting for the Yuan army's scout team.

Moreover, this square is larger.

Three teams have been assembled!

This is the time that the first team bought for the brothers to assemble at the cost of all the brothers and their lives!
In intensive barrage.

More than a hundred of the Yuan army's scouts fell instantly.

The scout team of the Yuan Army looked at the "Lin of Spears" illuminated by the firelight and saw a larger scale of white blunderbuss swords. They were frightened and subconsciously reined in their horses to avoid the second square formation.

"kill!"

"Avenge your brothers!"

……

Without waiting for the Yuan army's scout team to find the next target, Zhou Lang finally arrived with his cavalry.

The cavalry mark commanded by Zhou Lang includes the first town cavalry mark and the first mixed association cavalry battalion.

The total strength is 600 people.

The Yuan Army's scout team has already lost 300 people!

Twice the strength of the enemy!
When Zhou Lang met a Yuan army scout, he slashed him with his sword.

Just now, he witnessed it with his own eyes.

Brothers in a team, in order to buy time for their brothers, disappeared in the horse hoof stampede of the Yuan army scout team.

The prince said.

In war, if you want to avenge your brothers, you can only do so while the war is ongoing.

Once the opponent surrenders.

If you kill again.

That's not avenging a brother who died in battle.

It's an insult to the heroic spirits of our brothers who died in battle!
It's an insult to the Army's No. [-] military spirit!

Therefore, if you want to take revenge, you can only do it on the battlefield.

kill!

This team of Yuan army scouts must leave no one behind before the end of the war!
Only in this way can we comfort the heroes of that team and the brothers who died in battle!
All the cavalry brothers have the same mood and purpose as Zhou Lang.

This is also one of the reasons why the Army's number one commander is not afraid of death on the battlefield.

First of all, the love between soldiers is deep.

Once again, everyone has the belief that only those who kill the enemy in war can truly comfort the heroic spirits of brothers who died in battle.Only then can we live up to the military spirit of Army No. [-] Town!

……

Haitong stood at the top of the city and watched the scout team quickly melt away during the encirclement and suppression of the army's first town cavalry target.

Clench your fist tightly.

Close your eyes in pain and disappointment.

It's not that the scout team isn't brave enough or elite enough.

But the army’s number one suppressor, Xueyong, is too scary!
When a hundred-man team charged with thousands of cavalry and fired with guns, they were still brave enough to form an infantry versus cavalry formation.

He watched helplessly as he was submerged by the iron hooves of more than a thousand cavalry.

Not even a scream of pain came out.

He knew he had failed!

How did the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty train his troops?

Can a group of flesh and blood be trained into a body of iron?
tom tom tom...

The sound of shelling awakened Hai Tong.

Opening eyes suddenly...

Five hundred paces away.

Artillery one after another aimed at the city head and fired.

Can artillery still be used like this? !

madman!A bunch of lunatics!
……

"Captain of ten thousand! Captain of ten thousand! The outer city cannot be defended. The outer city cannot be defended!"

Haitong was awakened by the cry of a captain.

Turning around, as far as the eye could see, under the bombardment, our own soldiers were already in chaos at the top of the city. The soldiers of the Army's First Town who climbed onto the city took the opportunity to expand the climbing point, and more soldiers of the Army's First Town swarmed onto the city.

Yes... I can't hold it anymore!
"Quick! Send an order to the west gate and north gate to reinforce the inner city of the south city! At the same time, tell them to completely abandon the outer city and retreat to the inner city!"

"Captain Ten Thousands, what should we do with our soldiers?" The Captain asked loudly with a cry: "Captain Ten Thousands, this is what you need to stand on!"

Hai Tong glared sharply.

Yes, the soldiers at the top of Nancheng City are the foundation for his foothold.

Except for the five thousand in the inner city.

He has 5000 soldiers and [-] people concentrated in the outer city.

But once he worries about his own capital and orders a retreat, the Army's First Town will rush into the inner city with broken troops!

For Bei Yuan!

Now we can only abandon these fifteen thousand soldiers.

Let them hold back Army No. [-] Town!
Thinking of this, Haitong gritted his teeth tightly, blood oozed from the corners of his lips, and then stared: "Go and give the order!"

After the commander left.

Haitong continued to avoid the bombardment from the city, while trying to stabilize the morale of the soldiers and issuing orders one after another.

Groups of Beiyuan troops, in panic, were driven by generals at all levels towards the boarding points established by the Army's First Town at the top of the city.

He wanted to adjust the deployment of troops in the inner city and buy time.

At the same time, since these 5000 people want to give up.

Then make the most of it.

Even if ten soldiers are exchanged for one of the army's first soldiers, it is still valuable.

The prince will come back tomorrow.

When the time comes, the fourth Ming prince's army's first town to seize the outer city will be Du Bao Rou!
Turtle in the urn!
I can’t even leave even if I want to!
……

When Zhu Di led the first battalion of soldiers from Wengcheng to the top of the outer city.

It was getting brighter.

The Yuan army has completed the deployment of troops in the inner city.

Haitong also returned to the inner city under the escort of personal soldiers.

Boom!

Violent noises were heard.

Zhu Di turned his head and looked at the sound...

Then, at the junction of the inner and outer city, sections of passages were blown up by the Yuan army.

Zhu Di's face gradually turned solemn.

But the outer city in the southern section of the city had not yet been cleared, and he had no time to think about anything else.

At this moment, there was no way to send troops to seize the passage.

……

With the sound of collapse.

The Yuan army resisting in the outer city gradually lost its will to resist.

Half an hour later, the battle in the outer city ended.

Tan Yuan and others who went to the west gate and east gate returned.

Their faces were all ugly.

"My lord, all the passages connecting the inner city have collapsed." The collapse was not serious. According to the design, a gap about one person high and several meters wide collapsed.

But the soldiers jumped down and climbed on the other side.

What awaits the soldiers is the sword forest and sword rain of the Yuan army!
An already narrow passage.

A collapsed gap appears, doubling the difficulty of the attack!
……

After Zhu Di pondered silently for a moment, he analyzed: "The Yuan army defending the city seems to be preparing to wait for Naha to return with reinforcements and attack us from both inside and outside..."

If so.

They become sandwich cookies!
Exit the outer city now?
With so many casualties, we finally managed to capture the outer city, so we couldn’t give up no matter what.

Although the passage was blown down.

But after all, it would be easy to capture the outer city and then attack the inner city.

"Now we have two ways. First, capture the inner city before Naha rushes back. Second, if we cannot capture it, we must hold on to the outer city until the main force arrives."

As he spoke, Zhu Di looked at Xu Huizu, "Did the staff count the statistics? What are the casualties?"

Xu Huizu's pained expression flashed away.

Snapped!
Then he stood up and said: "One thousand were killed in battle! Three hundred were seriously injured!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he clenched his fists instantly.

Nails dug deep into flesh.

The casualties in this battle were too great!
In the previous wars, including Zhang Bei's, the total losses were not so huge!
Tan Yuan saw that Zhu Di was feeling uncomfortable, and he felt uncomfortable too, but he still comforted him: "Your Majesty, our brothers can even fight this kind of battle. From now on, there will be no battle that our Army's First Town cannot fight!"

Zhu Di smiled bitterly.

He quickly recovered and asked again: "Where are the prisoners? How many are there?"

"Of more than [-] people, about [-] of the Yuan army died in the battle, and some of them fled to the inner city."

Zhu Di nodded.

After thinking for a while, he ordered: "Send soldiers immediately to the yurts under the city to collect all available supplies, especially water and food."

Their food was gone.

Last night was the last meal.

As for hitting the inner city.

In any case, the soldiers have to rest for half a day.

Running thousands of miles, they attacked the city overnight.

The soldiers were already very tired.

Such a big loss.

It also has a lot to do with the fatigue of the soldiers.

If they don't recover, they will attack the inner city. The remaining [-] people will probably suffer even more losses!

Moreover, it may not be possible to capture the inner city.

Rather than doing this, it is better to let the soldiers recharge their batteries.

"Move our artillery cart to the top of the city, immediately aim at the Yuan army's artillery in the inner city, and find a way to knock out the Yuan army's artillery!"

The distance between the inner and outer cities is too close.

The artillery in the inner city of the Yuan army posed a great threat to them.

Especially if you are attacked from both inside and outside.

Therefore, it must be done before the Yuan army generals react.

Destroy as many Yuan army artillery pieces as possible.

"In addition, drive the Yuan Army prisoners out of the city and release them on the spot. Send envoys to the Yuan Army wounded soldiers inside the city and let the Yuan Army garrison generals receive treatment! Send back those who are about to die!"

Tan Yuan and others frowned.

They understood the purpose of sending the wounded soldiers back to the city.

First, show the benevolence and righteousness of their first army town to the Yuan army.

This thing of benevolence and righteousness is useless.

If the Yuan army is weak, it is destined to be defeated.

The benevolence and righteousness shown now can prompt the Yuan army to quickly give up resistance when they are defeated.

Secondly, the tragic images of sending wounded soldiers back will inevitably affect their morale.

Especially the kind that's about to die.

"Brother-in-law, will the more than 7000 captives be driven out of the city to find Naha? If so, they will take up arms again and become our enemies!"

Zhu Di looked at Xu Huizu, looked around at everyone, and couldn't help but smile, "It's possible, but when they go back, the heroic battle of our army's first town will spread throughout Naha's army, and the enemy will definitely be affected, and Our behavior of capturing them but letting them go can also show our benevolence and righteousness to the entire Beiyuan Army..."

……

"The most important thing is that we currently have no ability to guard seven thousand prisoners."

He only has a total of more than 1 troops.

Keep seven thousand prisoners around you?
too dangerous!
"I don't care about killing prisoners, but now, killing prisoners in front of the entire inner city Beiyuan garrison will only arouse the anger and fear of the Beiyuan army, and they will inevitably attack and defend to the death..."

The purpose of the current war is to capture Helin as quickly as possible.

end the war.

Then rush to the fishing sea.

War must not be artificially made more difficult.

As for killing the young grassland and making it unable to recover in a short period of time?
It is not meaningful.

As long as this battle can be won.

He sent people to the grassland to issue recruitment orders, so that he could recruit a large number of young people from the grassland.

There is a better solution.

Why use the last resort?

Explained by Zhu Di.

Everyone understood.

Tan Yuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I will make arrangements right away!"

After everyone leaves.

Minfeng came to Zhu Di's side and said, "Master, let me show you the injury."

Zhu Di nodded, took off his military uniform, and exposed his arms.

While asking Minfeng to check the location where he was hit by the fire projectile, he asked: "Have the soldiers been almost treated?"

"Zhou Guandai is dealing with the soldiers..."

Minfeng looked at Zhu Di's wounds carefully.

His brows were furrowed.

The master had five wounds on his body.

Two arrow wounds.

Three gunshot wounds.

Arrow wounds and two blunderbuss penetrating wounds are easy to deal with.

Minfeng quickly treated Zhu Di's four wounds.

When checking the last wound on his left arm, he carefully touched it and felt it. His face gradually became serious, "Master, this projectile is stuck in the bone, and you need to have surgery."

Zhu Di turned his head and patted the young man on the head with a smile, "Here it is, come and do it for the master!"

"Master, you have to drink hemp powder..."

Zhu Di shook his head, "No need, master can bear this little pain!"

After drinking Ma Fu Powder, you will lose consciousness for at least half an hour.

The current situation does not allow this.

Naha goes out, and he may arrive at some time.

"master……"

"Minfeng, let me help you!" Minfeng still wanted to persuade, but a voice suddenly came from behind him. Yang Dongxu walked quickly, looked at Zhu Di's injuries, pursed his lips tightly, and said: "Our current situation is very dangerous, master. If you can't use Ma Fu powder, I'll give you a hand."

As he spoke, he took out a towel, rolled it up, and handed it to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di smiled and opened his mouth to bite the towel.

The two newly married young men cooperated with each other and began to cut Zhu Di's wounds and remove the projectiles.

……

When it's over.

In the distance, billowing dust waves swept in, accompanied by the rumble of horse hooves.

Naha is out!
