The Ming army generals at the top of the city were always watching the surrounding situation and constantly issuing orders one after another.
Immediately, there were several soldiers, holding weapons that looked like forks, stabbing at the ladder, and then pushing the ladder away with all their strength.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The surrendered soldiers who were still climbing up the ladder let out a series of miserable screams, and then fell backwards together with the pushed ladder.
However, two of the Ming soldiers who pushed away the ladder were each hit by an arrow in the forehead.
"Be careful of the emperor's sharpshooter!"
After seeing two of his own men being shot over, the team leader in charge of this area immediately shouted loudly.
The Jurchen army will be equipped with some sharpshooters. These sharpshooters are very skilled in archery. They are specially used to kill the emperor's brave soldiers or commanders.
¡°Perhaps the Jurchens don¡¯t understand what the ¡®decapitation tactic¡¯ is, but they do understand the principle of catching the thief first by hitting the snake within seven inches.
In this era of cold weapons, the role of a general is huge, and the role of a modern officer cannot be replaced.
"Because there are many illiterate soldiers in this era, and they have very little knowledge, and what they know is not that rich at all.
Therefore, the soldiers will obey the orders of their superiors.
This is why in the Cold Weapon Age, once a general dies, even if the remaining army still has combat effectiveness, it has no will to fight.
Such a thing is unthinkable in modern times.
And the Jurchens know this, so they will send sharpshooters in the army specifically to kill enemy generals, leaving the enemy in a leaderless and chaotic situation, unable to continue fighting with their own side.
Moreover, this method did bring considerable results to the Jurchens in their confrontation with the Ming Dynasty.
And there are such sharpshooters in the surrendered army that is currently attacking.
It¡¯s just that the marksmen in the surrendered army are not the real marksmen in the Jurchen army. They were just guys selected by the Han soldiers in the surrendered army and given a little training.
They are still far behind the real marksmen in the Jurchen army.
But, it can still be used to fool the enemy.
The commander of the Ming garrison who just shouted is a veteran from Liaodong, so he understands this very well.
It is precisely because of understanding that I shouted so loudly.
Most of the Ming troops here in the capital are bastards who have never been on the battlefield. If they are not warned, the reckless ones will definitely be killed by the sharpshooters hiding in the darkness under the city.
However, the veteran from Liaodong also guessed wrongly, that is, the sharpshooters he thought were just fakes from the surrendered army, and were not the Jurchens' own elite sharpshooters at all.
But the existence of these counterfeit goods in the surrendered army also brought great harm to the defenders.
The defenders had to deal with the enemies climbing ladders to attack the city, and at the same time they had to be careful of the opponent's very accurate cold arrows. The psychological pressure can be imagined.
Therefore, when they fight with the enemy, they will appear a little timid.
Because they have to be careful and be prepared for sudden arrows.
In this way, they will not be able to truly fight the enemy, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
The situation at the top of the city seemed a bit urgent and critical for a while.
"You can't go up. The Jurchens' offensive is very strong now, and their marksmen can shoot very accurately. We can't afford it if there is any danger."
Zhao Hongyu and his group were stopped at the corner of the steps leading up to the city wall.
Although Eunuch Xue explained to the general who stopped them, he still did not approve of them going up.
¡°Besides, there¡¯s a lot of fighting going on up there right now, and he can¡¯t guarantee your safety if you go up there.
One is a confidant of the emperor, and the other is a prince from a foreign country.
You said you people don¡¯t stay well in the palace and residence, so why do you have to come here?
But the Jurchens, who were still alive, launched an attack at this time, and they also targeted this direction and area.
The general stationed here now has a headache. He feels that he is very unlucky.
If he had a choice, he really wouldn't want to fight the Jurchens.
thisThis military general has never been to Liaodong, nor has he really been on the battlefield. He is just a military attache who inherited his father's position.
Originally, he thought that as a military attache here in the capital, he would not have the opportunity to fight in battle, so this life was just a matter of muddling along.
But now he found that his previous imagination was still too beautiful.
The Jurchens were so strong that they were able to cross Liaodong and directly attack the capital city.
Are all those people in Liaodong just eating shit? They ask for so much money from the court every year, but even the Jurchens can't stop it, causing the capital to fall into such a big crisis.
Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t know anything about the thoughts and thoughts in the heart of this general with a flattering smile when facing Eunuch Xue, and he didn¡¯t want to know.
Although this guy is afraid of the Jurchens, Zhao Hongyu is not afraid at all.
After all, Zhao Hongyu has confidence in his heart.
Relying on weapons that transcended this era, Zhao Hongyu did not put the Jurchens in his eyes or heart at all.
??Even now, he is still a little excited.
The reason for excitement is simple, that is, he can kill those Jurchens.
"It doesn't matter, those Jurchens can't hurt us yet. Even if they are their sharpshooters, I don't have anything to worry about. You can rest assured. If something really goes wrong, it has nothing to do with you, Xue Brother is here to testify, I said so.¡±
Zhao Hongyu couldn¡¯t say anything to the military attache who stopped him. After all, he had good intentions and was afraid that he might be in danger or get hurt after he went up.
"Your Highness, it is indeed dangerous up there. Otherwise, I think you shouldn't go up there. Just send two people casually, right? Anyway, this kind of weapon is just for testing, and you don't have to go up there in person."
Eunuch Xue is a eunuch after all, and he is not very courageous.
He didn¡¯t want to come up earlier, but he couldn¡¯t resist Zhao Hongyu.
Now that he heard what the military attache said, he didn't even dare to do it.
"Why, Brother Xue doesn't want to go up either?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Hongyu turned his head and looked at Eunuch Xue. "If Brother Xue doesn't go up, he won't be able to see how powerful this weapon is, and you won't be able to go back and deliver the goods."
Zhao Hongyu also saw Eunuch Xue's timidity, but he didn't want to stop here.
They are just Jurchens, what is there to be afraid of?
They are not three-headed and six-armed monsters. A single hit from a musket lead bullet can kill them.
Like the Han people, they are made of flesh and blood.
In terms of knowledge, Zhao Hongyu is far superior to Eunuch Xue and other Ming people at the same time. He also knows the details of the Jurchens, so he doesn't worry about this at all.
Besides, when he came here, he was followed by 300 Imperial Guard soldiers, as well as 30 mercenaries led by Roderny wearing European-style armor, as well as Hattori Chizuru and four Japanese Kendos. Master.
Not to mention the Imperial Guards, with Roderney and thirty large European beasts alone, it would not be that easy to hurt him.
The armor these guys wear makes them look like a big movable iron bucket. They follow around them. This is an excellent human shield.
What's more, beside Zhao Hongyu, there is also the monster Chizuru Hattori.
Even the four Japanese sword masters cannot be underestimated.
marksman!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Zhao Hongyu sneered in his heart.
No matter how powerful it is, can it be as powerful as a sniper?
It¡¯s just a bow and arrow. I would be scared of modern firearms, but bows and arrows don¡¯t scare me.
It¡¯s so stubborn!
As soon as Zhao Hongyu finished speaking, the military attach¨¦ had a definition in his mind.
¡°If it weren¡¯t for Eunuch Xue¡¯s sake, this military attache would never have spoken so kindly to Zhao Hongyu.
You must know that even if the military attach¨¦s of the Ming Dynasty had a very low status, they were still much higher than those from foreign countries.
¡°That bullshit crown prince, who knows who is the crown prince of a small country in a remote mountain country.
"I'll just ask the little eunuch next to me to take a look. When he sees it and comes back to tell me, I can go back and do business, right? So let's not go up there."?
The battle not far away was very fierce, and they could hear the shouts of killing here.
And the dull, acidic sound of the sharp weapon hitting the body made Eunuch Xue feel trembling. To be honest, he really didn't want to go through.
"It doesn't matter if Brother Xue doesn't want to go with me, but I must go. Since Brother Xue can't accompany me, please send a confidant to follow me. While the Jurchens are still attacking, I need to let them Let¡¯s see the power of my Great Song Dynasty¡¯s thunderous thunder. If they stop attacking, it will be more troublesome if I want to show it to you. "
No matter what, Zhao Hongyu is going up, and there is nothing you can do to stop him.
Eunuch Xue had nothing to do about it.
¡°Besides, what Zhao Hongyu said is right.
The emperor asked them to demonstrate the power of the thunder, so this is a good time, isn't it?
The Jurchen army's offensive is fierce. It is really a good opportunity to show whether these thunders are easy to use.
Seeing this, Eunuch Xue stopped blocking him.
"Let your highness go down."
When Eunuch Xue thought of this, he said something to the military attache.
"But, sir", the military attache wanted to say something else, but Eunuch Xue raised his hand to stop him.
"Brothers! Let's go up to support the garrison brothers, and at the same time, let's show the strength of those Jurchens. The ancestors of these guys have enmity with our ancestors!"
It¡¯s already this time, but Zhao Hongyu hasn¡¯t forgotten to continue to involve this identity.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The three hundred Imperial Guards behind him responded in unison.
Afterwards, Zhao Hongyu smiled at Eunuch Xue, and then led everyone up the stone steps to the top of the city where the fierce battle was taking place.
As for Eunuch Xue, he could only shake his head with a wry smile, and then sent a young eunuch beside him to follow Zhao Hongyu and the others (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster! )
