Chapter 1201: Retreat from the enemy

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The setting sun is like blood, and the grass and trees on the hillside are all red, stained by the blood of the Tatars.

    Dong Fox is like a gambler who has lost his sights. He always thinks that all the soldiers who collected the troops will die in vain, so he keeps adding more money and more money!

    In order to regroup, he transferred Changbald from the middle and ordered him to lead his troops and continue to launch a fierce attack on the right!

    "Charge, kill! Rush up the side wall to reward a cow and a Han woman!" Baldy took off his robe, bare his upper body, brandished a machete, screamed strangely, and led the Wuliangha warriors  He crossed over the wounded soldiers on the ground and launched an unknown number of attacks towards the side wall where the corpse was resting.

    As expected, there was no 'swarm' of arrows this time, and the sporadic arrows of the Ming army could not stop the pace of the elites of Wu Liangha.  Except for the shirtless bald man, they all wore leather armor and helmets, and held leather shields in their hands.  It can withstand ordinary bows and arrows and even the lead of fire blunderbuss very well.

    Subahai and Chaohua, who suffered heavy casualties among their troops, could not help but secretly curse, Dong Fox, this old fox, deliberately consumes our strength and then picks peaches!

    But this is not the time to care about things, it¡¯s still important to capture the side wall quickly!

    So they shouted orders, ordered their troops to shoot at the wall, and suppressed the Ming army with dense arrow rain.

    The Ming army on the side wall was suppressed under the crenellations and could not raise their heads at all.  For some reason, the watchtowers on both sides went silent at the same time

    The bald man took the lead and rushed to the top of the hill desperately. Using his legs, he jumped onto the wall!

    The Ming army behind the arrow stack was startled. Before they could swing the three-eyed blunderbuss, he swung his two knives and killed several of them in a row, like chopping melons and vegetables.

    The morale of the Wuliangha warriors was greatly boosted, as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood. They jumped up on the wall one after another and started to kill the Ming army.

    The Ming army collapsed at the first touch and jumped off the wall to escape

    In the blink of an eye, this side wall was already filled with Wuliangha warriors!

    They held a scimitar in one hand and a leather shield in the other, cheering and celebrating their victory

    "A bunch of idiots, they haven't won yet!" Dong Hu cursed, but his eyes were full of doting. He was so brave and unparalleled, he really deserves to be his younger brother.

    This time I really let him talk, and it¡¯s not over yet

    Dong Fox suddenly saw two fire dragons spraying out from the watchtowers on both sides almost at the same time, covering the entire side wall in the blink of an eye.

    The Uuliangha people who were celebrating suddenly turned into flaming men and fell to the wall screaming.

    ??~~

    The swarm of bees in the enemy tower has indeed been used up, but there is still a fierce fire oil tank

    This was restored by Qi Jiguang based on "General Martial Arts", and also borrowed from the drainage king invented by Zhang Jian, so that the fire snake can spray seven or eight meters away.  It can be said to be an enhanced version of the fierce fire oil tank.

    It uses the "fat and kerosene" produced in Gaonu County, Shanxi Province as fuel, and uses wrought copper as the cabinet. It has four legs at the bottom and a horizontal pump with a pressure rod on the top. It is connected with the oil tank. Each time it is pressed, the fire can be extracted.  About three pounds of oil spurted out!

    When kerosene meets fire, it ignites, and the flames spurt out like a fire dragon.  Because the watchtower is more than one foot higher than the side wall, the fire dragon is two to three meters longer than the jet on the ground.  The volleys from both sides just covered the twenty-meter-long side wall

    Looking at the warriors who were showing off their power just now, they turned into burning men and fell down in the blink of an eye.  The Uliangha people under the side wall rushed forward to rescue.  They took off their robes and beat them, took off their water bags and poured water on the burning man. However, not only were they unable to extinguish the fire, the fire only grew stronger and stronger, even causing the rescuers to burn themselves.

    When the Mongolians from other tribes outside saw it, they dropped their weapons and knelt down in piety.

    "Are you planning to surrender?" On the fortress, Tong Ziji couldn't help but be stunned.

    "No." Qi Jiguang said with a faint smile: "They believe in shamanism that worships nature. The first thing worshiped in this religion is fire. They believe that fire comes from the heaven and is part of the sun and moon. It is the most sacred and holy, and can wash away all dirt.  , to drive away devils. So they cannot be enemies with fire, otherwise they will offend the God of Fire and they will not be able to light fires in the future."

    "No wonder the commander went to such great lengths to get kerosene from Shaanxi." Tong Zigong suddenly said: "It turns out that they are most afraid of this. The commander really knows everything!"

    "A general should know himself and his enemy, and he should also have a little knowledge of astronomy and geography." Qi Jiguang said with a smile on his lips: "We should be here today."

    The sun had already set, and only the afterglow illuminated the sky. Dong Hu was not in the mood to fight, and soon blew the clarion call to retreat.

    In the dusk, he stood on the hillside with cold hands and feet, staring blankly at the defeated soldiers and generals.

    Dong Fox knows very well that although his main force is still there, the Mongols are no longer Genghis Khan., he occupied and converted it into Cangcheng, preparing to temporarily store the food and materials plundered from the Ming Dynasty.

    This way, you can make more trips to grab it, and avoid being like a blind bear tearing off corns and not bringing back much with you.

    So he left a few men and supplies in Kuancheng. If he couldn't rob them now, he could go and rest for a while before making other plans.

    ¡°Alas, there are too few thoughtful leaders like me on the grassland¡± Dong Huxu gave himself a thumbs up, then secretly complained about God¡¯s injustice.  Why should a good place like the Hetao be left to the idiot like me?

    While I was thinking wildly, I suddenly heard the rapid sound of horse hooves coming from far away.

    "Report to Taiji, it's bad!" A scout who was exploring the road reported immediately with a worried look on his face: "Our way forward has been blocked by the Ming army!"

    "What?" Dong Hu was surprised at first: "What did they do?"

    Then he asked: "How many troops are there? Where to stop them?"

    "Right at the mouth of the river valley, the sky is covered with people. I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of people" The scout's voice trembled.

    ps. I have to get up early tomorrow morning, and I¡¯ll be here tonight.  I¡¯ll write again tomorrow¡­ (Remember this website¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
