    They waved their scimitars and spears, shouted, and rushed towards the Ming infantry on the opposite side. They wanted to rush past the opposing infantry and rush to the baggage train behind them. When they got there, they would kill them and kill their baggage.  Destroy all weapons that may be harmful to the city, and then fight back.  There is still a kind of fanatical blood in their bones. When this fanaticism is inspired, they will be invincible.  Now, that's it. Seeing our own troops rushing out regardless of their own safety, even the defenders at the top of the city screamed and cheered for their own side.  In contrast, the Ming army was very stable. Seeing this situation, their baggage team urgently unloaded several large cylinders from the vehicle, and then began to fix them. Everything was done in an orderly manner. Here  At such times, he was still able to maintain his composure. In comparison, the Mongolian shouts seemed dull.  At this time, if the army that rushed out had seen the power of the Ming Dynasty people, the best choice would be to quickly pull their horses and run back. Unfortunately, they have not seen it.  So, they still move forward courageously and still want to move forward.  "Hiss" He stepped on the horse's hoof in the snow nest and suddenly stepped on something special. The horse's hoof was pierced. Immediately, the horse felt pain and raised its legs to the sky, causing the person on the horse to fall off.  There were several more horses, and while they were running, they suddenly stumbled and threw the people on top of them.  Fortunately, since the snow on the ground was still very thick, they could not run very fast, just faster than walking. Moreover, the thick snow provided a buffer. They rolled and stood up again.  got up.  The horses could no longer be ridden, but they still screamed wildly and ran towards the Ming army on the opposite side. The Ming army were also infantry anyway, and no one took advantage of such a fight between the two sides.  "A hundred tigers will run together without weapons, let go." A voice in the distance shouted quietly.  Hearing his words, Huo Zhezi ignited the fuse of the cylinder, and the burning fuse soon got into the cylinder.  "Chi, chi, whoosh, whoosh" With the continuous sound, black smoke ignited, and arrows flew out one after another, carrying flames.  "Quickly, withdraw the troops!" On the top of the city, Tuotuo saw this scene of the opponent and was immediately frightened. His own soldiers rushed over, but the opponent's archers did not draw their bows to shoot. It turned out that the opponent did not need to shoot arrows at all.  The arrows flying out of the cylinder are powerful weapons!  The withdrawal bugle sounded immediately: "Woo, woo" In fact, the cavalry also saw the arrows flying in front. They had no cover. At this time, it was obviously unwise to rush over, so they immediately and unanimously  Turn around and start running back.  Even so, the opponent's arrows were so accurate that after this round of arrows flew by, the number of cavalry who could return to the city was less than half of the number when they set out. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Tuo Tuoyin had a sullen face and saw that his own cavalry had left so many corpses and came back in embarrassment.  "Attention, the Ming army is about to attack the city. We are waiting for work, and we will definitely be able to defeat the Ming army!" Tuotuo knew that at this time, we should not be discouraged: "We are defending the city and have a great advantage. In this ice and snow, the Ming army must not be  Our opponent!" Tuotuo's words were so loud that everyone on the city heard them, and the low atmosphere was suddenly aroused again.  "Yes, we have a great advantage in defending the city. Our city is so high, let's see how they can get up." "Even if they have a lot of bows and arrows, they can't fly up on the arrows." The soldiers were all talking about the defeat just now.  , and were forgotten by them.  "My lord, the general has an idea." At this moment, Mo Rigen spoke again.  "Speak." Tuotuo said.  "The weather is so cold now. Let's light a fire and boil water on the top of the city. After the water boils, we pour it on the city wall. Soon, the snow on the city wall will freeze into ice, and there is also a thick ice under the city wall. Then the Ming army  , No matter what siege equipment is used, it can't be attacked," Mo Rigen said.  ¡° Moreover, boiling water on top of the city can also keep the soldiers on top of the city warm. This is a reason that Mo Rigen did not say.  Hearing Mo Rigen's words, Tuotuo nodded for a while: "Yes, let's boil the water immediately!" Soon, thick smoke appeared on the top of the city, and then, the fire appeared, getting stronger and stronger.  What are the Tatars doing?  Seeing the lights everywhere on the city, Feng Guosheng was a little curious.  "Just now, it was thrilling enough. If the Tatars rush over without fear of death, these grains of mine will be destroyed."The baggage is probably in danger. If the food and grass are burned, and the ice and snow cover, all of our troops will starve and freeze to death here.  Fortunately, the five gates and a hundred tigers ran together, which scared the opponent back. It was only these five gates, and the baggage behind them had not arrived yet. If the Tatars were not afraid of death and continued to charge forward, they would not be able to stop them.  But now, he was no longer afraid. Watching the baggage being unloaded, especially the bowl-mouth guns, were finally moved down and assembled, Feng Guosheng gradually felt relieved.  As long as the bowl-mouth guns are assembled, the initiative is completely in his own hands. Feng Guosheng looked at the soldiers sent by Prince Chen in the army, who were assembling them in an orderly manner. Prince Chen told him that as long as these bowl-mouth guns were assembled,  With a bang, the opponent's city will be blasted away, and then our own soldiers will be able to enter the city calmly.  This time to fight Helin, although Chen Feng did not send out his own army, but Feng Guosheng led the Ming army. However, if he wanted to attack the city, he must have a big weapon. Therefore, Chen Feng mobilized from the Taizhou Ordnance Bureau.  These twenty newly developed bowl-mouth guns were sent to soldiers who were skilled in operating these firearms to help Feng Guosheng fight the war.  As long as they open a gap in the city, their task will be completed, and now it seems that this task is not difficult.  Hundred Tigers Qi Ben carried a lot of them. After the baggage arrived, they began to distribute it to the city gates on all sides. These equipments were prepared to prevent the troops in the city from escaping. If they dared to open the city gates and fight out, they would be punished.  These attacks of a hundred tigers rushing together.  Of course, outside the city gate in the east, the largest number of Tigers gathered here is the Hundred Tigers. After a while, after opening the gap, the Hundred Tigers will completely cover the top of the city, covering the charge of one's own army.  After half an hour, you can attack the city, and when it gets dark, you can spend the night in the city!  Feng Guosheng felt relieved when he thought that his army, after trekking in the wilderness for so many days, could finally enter the city and have a good sleep.  At this moment, he saw the actions of the soldiers on the city wall. They brought the hot cauldron to the side of the city wall, and then, with a bang, poured out all the water in it.  What are they doing?  Bathing the city wall?  Feng Guosheng observed with a telescope, and saw that the hot water rushed to the city wall, and the steam melted all the snow. Then, almost quickly, without even a cup of tea, it formed  ice.  Damn it, the defenders want to turn all the city walls into ice, so that their soldiers can't climb up the city walls!  If you want to use ordinary methods to attack the city, it will be really difficult. However, the soldiers on the top of the city can do whatever they want, because their soldiers will not climb the city wall.  The sun gradually got higher, and soon it was approaching noon.  Now there is no need to hide his traces. Feng Guosheng ordered a fire to be cooked. After a hot meal, he began to attack the city. He worked hard to break into Helin City and capture the Tatar emperor and ministers.  .  The ice on the city wall is getting thicker and thicker, the city is gradually becoming stronger, the top of the city is peeling off, and the mood is gradually relaxing. At this time, it is impossible for the opponent to attack the city.  Seeing the other party lighting a fire to cook, Tuotuo also ordered the soldiers to eat immediately!  So, the soldiers who had been hungry since last night finally had a full meal. Moreover, because they were about to fight, they were surprised to find that their meal was not bad. They were boiling water in a large pot.  Inside, thinly sliced ??mutton slices were put in, and then, the fresh smell of mutton spread throughout the city.  Eating mutton slices and nibbling flatbread, everyone felt that their whole body began to get hot and their eyes began to turn red.  Tuotuo ate a few mouthfuls, then went to the top of the city to observe the movement of the opponent's army. Based on his understanding of Chen Feng's army combat mode, Tuotuo knew that the opponent would soon attack the city.  The first attack must be the most intense. As long as the first attack is blocked, the soldiers will be familiar with it later, so it will be a tough battle in a while!  Sure enough, almost as soon as the soldiers had eaten, the other side's army began to take action.  The soldiers of the other side began to form a formation, and behind their positions, a series of bowl-mouth blunderbuss were placed.  It turned out to be a firearm!  They want to use a bowl-mouth blunderbuss to blow open their own city wall!  ¡°Hmph, when the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, the city wall will become very strong. If it rains non-stop in summer, maybe the city wall will collapse with a blast, but now, it is absolutely impossible!  "The firearms of the Ming army sound very loud, but they are not accurate at all. Send the order, don't be afraid, and fight bravely for a while!" Tuo Tuo said.Tao.  "Yes." Just as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of firearms from the other side. Sure enough, "Boom, boom, boom!"  With the sound of firearms, where the black smoke came out from the other side, several projectiles flew straight over with a sharp whistling sound.  Hearing the loud noise, some soldiers subconsciously covered their ears.  But, looking at it again, two of the flying projectiles hit the open space outside the city, still a few feet away from the city wall, one hit the inside of the city, and none of them hit the city wall.  This accuracy is too bad!  Suddenly, they remembered the order that had just been sent. The other party's firearms were not scary at all, so everyone gathered their courage.  People from the Central Plains!  bring it on!  ¡¾Hey, want to read this book for free?  Follow us on WeChat: and read]
