The sun rose in the east, and at three o'clock in the morning, the rebels under the city opened their positions and prepared to attack the city, and the defenders at the head of the city also moved in an orderly manner.

After all, the two sides have been fighting for seven days, and they are already quite familiar with each other's tactics, to put it in layman's terms: as long as the other party's tail is cocked, they know whether to poop or pee.

As the war drums sounded, hundreds of rebels shouted and rushed to the city wall from both wings, and at the same time, three ladders and two arrow towers were also slowly moved to the front of the formation under the impetus of the rebels.

"Shoot the arrows!" As soon as Yu Linsheng gave an order, sharp arrows poured down like raindrops on the rebels under the city, and at the same time, the rebels on the arrow tower also began to release arrows and shoot at the defenders on the city.

Kill...... The shouts of killing shook the world.

As soon as the battle between the attackers and the defenders began, it became white-hot, with sharp arrows and boulders flying all over the sky, constantly harvesting human lives. The sound of killing, screaming, firecrackers, explosions, arrows entering flesh, and broken bones rang out in one piece.

At this moment, human life is not as good as grass mustard!

Dangdangdang......

Several powerful arrows were shot in front of Xu Jin, but they were all blocked by the shields held by his own soldiers.

Xu Jin was wearing a jade-colored shirt, and stood in place with a calm expression, unmoving. In order to boost morale, Xu Jin has personally gone to the city to supervise the battle in the past few days, and he has become accustomed to this situation.

At this time, the only civil officials who still had the courage to stand beside Xu Jin were Meng Xiancheng, and Wu Linguang and Fang Tianlu and others had already hid inside the city tower.

Boom Boom Boom Boom ......

The defenders' four bowl-mouth guns fired one after another, but unfortunately all four shells missed and did not hit the two remaining bed crossbows of the rebels, and by this time the city gate had already received a heavy arrow from the bed crossbow. Fortunately, the city gate was strong enough, and if it were an ordinary house gate, it would have been cracked by a thick heavy arrow.

"Damn, I'm aiming at Lao Tzu, come again!" Yu Linsheng jumped like thunder with a waist knife in his hand.

The gunners hurriedly reloaded their ammunition, and at this moment, a boulder fell from the sky, instantly smashing one of the gunners into minced meat, and the bowl cannon was also smashed into the air, flipped around a few times before falling, smashing the city bricks out of a shallow pit, and the cannon body was also deformed, presumably scrapped.

"Grass!" Yu Linsheng couldn't help but crack his eyes, and scolded: "First kill that return cannon for Lao Tzu!" ”

The remaining three gunners hurriedly adjusted the angle of the bowl cannon and fired it...... Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Three solid iron balls flew out with a roar, perhaps because of the large size of the return cannon, but this time two shots hit at the same time, and the wooden frame erected high was torn apart on the spot.

Yu Linsheng laughed and said: "Good fight, that's it, give Lao Tzu the rest of the return cannon to ......"

Before Yu Linsheng's words were finished, a terrifying loud bang suddenly sounded in the enemy formation, shaking the ground, and the defenders at the head of the city were so frightened that they fell down, including Xu Jin, of course.

After the terrifying loud noise, there was silence, and time seemed to stand still at this moment. After a few seconds, the defenders at the head of the city came to their senses, looked around, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so they all looked down the city.

Xu Jin got up with palpitations, patted the dust on his body, and asked loudly, "Yu Qianhu, what's the matter?" ”

At this time, Yu Linsheng was looking at the city from the battlement, and when he heard this, he turned his head palely, and said in a dry voice: "Lord Tongju, the calf is finished, it is a general's cannon!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Lin'er and other personal soldiers all changed their faces greatly, and Xu Jin hurriedly went to the battlement of the women's wall to look down, and immediately gasped.

I saw a large pit with a diameter of about one meter appear more than ten meters away from the city wall, and several rebels with broken hands and feet were screaming in pain on the edge of the pit.

Wang Lin'er said with a solemn expression: "My lord, I see that this power can only be made by a great general's cannon, fortunately, the gunner of the thief soldiers is not very skilled, this cannon misses the head and hits his own people, if it hits the city gate, the consequences are unimaginable." ”

Xu Jin frowned and said, "Yu Qianhu, can you blast the other party's cannon first?" ”

Yu Linsheng put his hand on the pergola and visually inspected it for a few seconds, shook his head and said, "No, the distance is too far, our cannon can't reach it." ”

Xu Jin's face couldn't help but become ugly.

At this time, in the formation of the rebels, Wu Sanba was fanning the sergeant who was operating the cannon to the ground with a big ear, and scolded angrily: "Grass, your grandmother, is the dog blind?" You couldn't hit such a big city, and you just killed your own people, did you do it? ”

The gunner covered his cheeks and said, "The general is angry, the first time I use this kind of heavy artillery, I am not very proficient, and I will definitely be able to hit it again." ”

Wu Sanba said with a dark face: "This time I aimed at Lao Tzu, and the city gate is over there...... Hey, wait! ”

Wu Sanba's eyes looked at the city, and he happened to see a young man in a Xiucai robe standing at the battlement and looking down, vaguely familiar, and couldn't help but move in his heart, could it be Xu Jin's sour?

Wu Sanba showed a sneer on his face, pointed to the city, and said in a cruel voice: "Did you see the scholar in the white robe on the city?" Boom there! ”

The gunner nodded again and again, and with the help of several assistants, adjusted the angle of the general's cannon, which was too cumbersome for one person to operate.

After adjusting the angle, the gunner skillfully loaded the ammunition and ignited.

Wu Sanba looked at the sizzling and burning lead, his heart was inexplicably excited, and he looked up at the city again, however, at this time, he could no longer see the scholar standing at the battlement, and it was estimated that he had retreated, but it didn't matter, with the power of the general's cannon, as long as the kid was nearby, it would definitely be difficult to escape.

At this time, Xu Jin and his relatives at the head of the city had retreated to the vicinity of the city tower, discussing ways to deal with the rebels' heavy artillery.

Rumble......

There was another earth-shattering loud bang in the enemy formation, Xu Jin almost instinctively threw himself on the ground, and a group of personal soldiers also hurriedly raised their shields and squatted down to protect Xu Jin's group.

I only heard a loud bang, and half of the city tower collapsed like papier-mâché, and bricks, rubble, and wood poured down in an instant, burying Xu Jin and his own soldiers.

"Your Excellency!" Yu Linsheng was shocked, threw away the waist knife in his hand, and strode over, and the nearby guards also rushed up to the rescue, moving the bricks, rubble, wood, etc. away.

In the billowing smoke and dust, Xu Jin was "dug up" from the rubble, coughing violently.

Yu Linsheng couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief when he saw that Xu Jin was fine, and hurriedly ordered someone to take a water bladder and hand it to Xu Jin. Xu Jin took a few puffs before he stopped coughing, and looked at the city tower that had collapsed in half, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

Fortunately, Xu Jin and the pro-soldiers just stood under the eaves of the city tower just now, and there were not many bricks and stones falling down, plus the pro-soldiers reacted quickly and blocked it with shields, so Xu Jin was unscathed, but three pro-soldiers were slightly injured.

Xu Jinzheng was secretly happy, but suddenly his face changed, and he blurted out: "It's not good, Wu Zhixian!" ”

Only then did everyone suddenly wake up, and Wu Linguang, the magistrate, and Bo Fang Tianlu, the lord, were both in the city tower.

Although Xu Jin was not interested in Wu Linguang and Fang Tianlu, the two of them were the first and third leaders in Leadshan County, so they hurriedly ordered someone to rescue them.

Dozens of people started together, and the collapsed masonry rubble, beams, etc. were quickly moved away, Wu Linguang and Fang Tianlu were rescued, but the former had already bled through seven holes, and there was gas in and out, and the Da Luo Immortal couldn't be saved, but Fang Tianlu had a big life, hiding in the corner of the wall unscathed.

Xu Jin checked Wu Linguang and confirmed that he had lost his breath, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and ordered someone to find a curtain to cover the corpse. In the face of death, everyone is equal, whether you are a citizen or a county magistrate!

Rumble......

At this moment, there was another earth-shattering bang, and this time before Xu Jin could lie down, a group of guards had already thrown him to the ground.

However, this time there was no movement at the head of the city, and the city walls did not feel a violent vibration, and the cannonballs flew away?

Everyone was puzzled, and suddenly there was a burst of wanton laughter, only to see Yu Linsheng's goods lying on the battlement, pointing to the outside of the city and laughing wildly, even laughing with tears.

Xu Jin and Meng Xuan couldn't help frowning, they had just died, and it was a bit unreasonable for this guy to laugh so happily.

Yu Linsheng obviously realized that he was laughing out of place, but unfortunately he couldn't help but want to laugh, and puffed out his cheeks and couldn't help laughing: "It's blown up...... The general's cannon blew up, haha! ”

Xu Jin walked quickly to the battlement and looked down, and sure enough, he saw a big pit in the enemy camp, with stumps and broken flesh nearby, wounded soldiers everywhere screaming, and a war horse whose stomach was blown up was dying and struggling......

Xu Jin couldn't help but secretly call it a fluke, it seems that God is on his side, the rebels' general cannon was blown up, it was really February Erlong raised his head, what a good omen!

It turned out that the general's cannon in the Yujiang County Treasury was abandoned because it was not of good quality. At that time, a craftsman from the Ordnance Bureau discovered that there were cracks in the wall of the medicine chamber of this cannon, which was easy to explode.

Sure enough, after firing a few shots, the general's cannon couldn't withstand the pressure and exploded, the gunner and several assistants were killed on the spot, and Wu Sanba nearby was also affected, and he was unlucky on the good day of February 2nd!
