Chapter 108: Bitter Battle (2)

The soldiers of the Wansui Mountain Qianhu stationed in Linxian County were deadlocked under the city with Yuan Zong's first department, and the siege losses were too great, and it took quite a bit of time to rely on manpower to transport the Buddha Lang machine to the city, but Yuan Zong was not in a hurry at the first point.

He had time, anyway, he knew that there were only two thousand defenders in Linxian, and he still had fourteen thousand warriors who were dazed by silver.

But at this time, Liu Hongjian was really a little anxious, it was past noon, Liu Honggradually looked to the north and frowned, the sentry rider who reported the news had come back for a long time, why was Wei Penghong so slow?

"My lord, six prisoners have been brought." Fang Xian Ling came back to his life, and a few strong men behind him escorted the sturdy six sons of Jin merchants who were tied by ropes.

Liu Hong gradually gave Niu Zhuang a look, and Niu Zhuang immediately pulled up Wang Youcai and pressed it to the battlement.

"The king spares his life! My family is rich, my father will be willing to give up as much money as you want, and the king will spare his life! ”

Wang Youcai thought that this guy was going to throw him off the city wall, and his frightened pants were wet.

"Made, who is your king, you seedless fellow, shut up!"

Niu Zhuang smelled a commotion, his nose was crooked, and he slapped Wang Youcai on the back of the head, directly glaring at the fan, only to feel that the stars were turning around his eyes.

"Wang Dengku, do you know this person?" Liu Hong gradually grabbed Wang Youcai's hair and turned his lowered face towards the city.

Wang Dengku was originally in the rear of Yuan Zong's army, and when he heard the city wall put down and shouted his name, he was still puzzled at first, and looked at the city wall with squinted old eyes.

"Master, that's our eldest young master!" The young Wang family had good eyes, and he took a look at it from behind the shield, and pointed to the people in the city.

"My son, my son! Daddy is here to save you! Can you hear me? ”

Sure enough, he was still his own son, and as soon as he heard what his subordinates said, Wang Dengku walked out from behind the shield excitedly, and advanced a few steps and shouted.

Wang Youcai was slapped on the back of the head by a bull mallet, and as soon as he woke up, he heard an extremely familiar voice in the distance, and his eyes immediately became eager.

"Daddy save me! Daddy save ......"

Smack - another slap, this time Wang Youcai fainted directly.

"Wang Dengku, the eight of you listen, this matter started because of you, the official doesn't talk nonsense with you, every ten steps forward from this cannon in the city, the official will kill one of your sons, now you have three breaths to think about it!"

The Buddha machine has been moving slowly towards the city, and it is still more than two hundred meters away from the city, Liu Hong gradually estimated it and shouted.

Niu Zhuang immediately pulled out the war knife in a hurry, and the sharp and bright war knife flashed with dazzling swords that pierced Wang Dengku's eyes, Wang Dengku trembled, and as soon as he turned around, he saw seven colleagues behind him who had been cheating for half their lives.

Jin Liangyu's face was pale and he didn't say a word, Huang Yunfa was noncommittal, and the rest of the people were all anxious.

With a look, except for Jin Liangyu and Huang Yunfa, the other six people trotted to find Yuan Zongdi, begging Yuan Zongdi to save their son.

It is possible that the army may be influenced by the generals and the emperor, but it will not be affected by the merchants they consider to be lowly and greedy for money.

No matter how the six people cried, Yuan Zongdi didn't even let the six people into the camp.

On the city wall, Liu Hong gradually calculated the time silently.

"The time has passed, Wang Dengku, say goodbye to your son!" Liu Hong gradually yelled.

"Niu Zhuang, do it!" Before Wang Dengku could rush over, Liu Hong gradually ordered that the young men who died in the battle in the Thousand Households of Long Live Mountain made him heartbroken, the bandits misled the country, and the profiteers were even more hateful.

Niu Zhuang's eyes widened angrily, and he shouted, with only one knife, the unconscious Wang Youcai's head fell to the ground, Niu Zhuang was sprayed with blood, holding Wang Youcai's head, and threw it down the city.

Wang Dengku, who had just come to see his son for the last time, and the rest of the people, only saw a human head dropped from the city, and Wang Dengku wailed and rolled his eyes and fainted.

Although several people have long lost hope for their son's life in this action, they are still grief-stricken to see their son's head in a different place.

"Now you know that the devil is crying wolf? When you colluded with the Tartars to harm my Ming people, why didn't you cry? Why don't you weep when they lose their fathers, their brothers, their sons, and their wives when they are insulted by the Tartars?

Profiteers have no country, traitors seek glory, damn it! Niu Zhuang, next! ”

Liang Shanggao, Tian Ruhai, Fan Jian......

Every other minute, a human head fell from the wall, and after half an hour, until the last person was in the same place, the Franc was less than two hundred meters from the city.

"Listen to my orders, the eight major profiteers in front of you, strafe!" Liu Hongjian suddenly gave the order to the soldiers at the head of the city to shoot 100 households.

Bursts of gunfire tore through the sky.

The eight Jin merchant tycoons knelt weakly in front of Yuan Zongdi's army, staring at their blood-red eyes one by one, as if they had not yet woken up from the pain of losing their son.

Although the distance was very long, several stray bullets hit two of the eight, and the eight of them woke up from their nightmare and pulled each other to quickly hide behind the heavy shield, leaving only two lines of blood.

Boom –

The two Franc cannons in the center finally adjusted their positions and loaded the projectiles, and the shells weighing 20 pounds (about 18 catties) crashed into the city wall of Linxian with a loud bang.

The soldiers on the city wall clearly felt the slight tremor of the wall, and a cannonball hit the city wall, and a large piece of blue brick was peeled off by the huge impact of the cannonball.

The target of the other shell was the city gate, although the city gate was not as strong as the city wall, but the commander of the defense of the city was Yan Yingyuan, and the back of the city gate had already been blocked by him with a boulder, so there was no need to worry.

Boom boom - another three-angled Franc machine has been launched.

"Be careful, sir!"
