The huge cannonball, tumbling and smashing into the territory of a goose cart, smashed the goose cart out of a big hole, several people in it were killed immediately, the boulder smashed the internal structure of the goose cart, the goose cart stopped suddenly, under inertia, the top of the goose cart swung violently a few times, and the soldiers inside were shocked to lean forward and exclaim.

"All down, the car is broken!"

The soldier in the cart below shouted, and the soldier in the cart immediately ran down in a hurry.

Guns, cannonballs, and cannonballs formed a dense net, and the thieves and soldiers who rushed forward were constantly beaten upside down and flew out.

Annanwei had no moat, only a moat, and the thieves paved the trenches and bridges, and the soldiers rushed through.

Braving the rain of bullets, the sergeants of the "up" thieves rushed to the bottom of the city, and the ladder leaned against the city wall, and the soldiers first lifted it high, higher than the city, because it had a huge iron hook at the top, and after it was higher than the city wall, and then pulled down, the iron hook hooked the head of the city, so that the defenders could not knock it down.

As soon as the ladder to the city was fixed, the thieves like ant colonies climbed up quickly, and a thief soldier just showed half of his body, and he was about to rush to the head of the city.

Goose carts, nest carts, ladders, all kinds of equipment have arrived under the city, on the city wall of Annanwei, the thieves and soldiers are all over like ants, the city is filled with gunsmoke, rolling stones and thunderwood fall like raindrops, and the Ming army shoots the thieves who climb the city continuously on the shooting hole of the horse's face.

The swarming thieves fell one after another like sticks beating jujube trees.

There are many thieves, thieves gradually appear in the city, the battle begins to be fierce, the Ming army is a member of a thousand households, at once to knock down a thief leader, see a siege tower has been set up on the city wall, the thief army has been on the city since then, and his own soldiers only care about fighting, he is so anxious that he shouted: "Siege tower!" Siege Towers! ”

After roaring, he hurried out a few steps, stabbed to death a thief who had just jumped on the city wall, pushed the body down the city, and then picked up a fire pot and smashed it out, and the surrounding soldiers followed suit, smashing the oil canister into the siege tower, the clay pot was broken, and the fire oil immediately flowed all over the ground.

The thieves who climbed to the top of the tower, seeing this scene, immediately changed color, a rotating torch drew an arc, getting closer and closer in their eyes, and the soldiers retreated in horror, but they were resisted by the soldiers in the tower.

With a "boom" sound, the raging fire suddenly rose, and the soldiers on the tower were immediately engulfed in flames, and the soldiers on fire burned, screaming and falling off the tower, while the soldiers below hurriedly rushed out of the tower.

Chen Youlong in the city paid close attention to the battle situation, where there was a hole in the defense, or the loss was too great, the elite armor soldiers behind him immediately replenished it.

At this time, the battle on the city wall was fierce, the shouts of the soldiers of the two armies shook all directions, and in the distance, Sun Ke saw that the soldiers were constantly falling into the city, and his heart was like iron, squinting his eyes and scanning everywhere.

The battle lasted from morning to noon, and the western army once occupied a large section of the city wall, but under the desperate struggle of the Ming army, it was driven off the city again, and the battle was extremely fierce.

In the brutal siege battle, every moment, there were countless soldiers died, as the Ming army did not retreat, the thief army gradually declined after nearly two hours of fighting.

A burst of "dang dang" sounded, and the thieves who had paid heavy casualties finally retreated like a low tide.

The defenders of the city, looking at the thieves who were frantically attacking, dragged their weapons and flags, and left the city wall with their weapons, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and many people immediately sat down on the ground with exhaustion.

The thieves retreated, but the Ming army in the city did not rest, and the soldiers walked around the city, picking up weapons and cleaning up the dead bodies.

Chen Youlong pressed the sword and led a team of soldiers to walk through the city, the wounded soldiers next to him wailed, several soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, squatted down to check the injuries, and then called a stretcher to carry the wounded soldiers aside.

"How's it going?" Chen Youlong pressed the sword, looked at the situation in the city, and asked as he walked.

"There are no statistics yet, but it is estimated that there are at least 1,000 casualties." Wang Ding followed behind him and hurriedly replied.

Thousands of casualties a day, this number made Chen Youlong frown, if he continued to fight like this, Annanwei would not be able to withstand it for many days.

"So much?" Chen Youlong groaned for a while, and let out a heavy sigh, "If you can save it, you must save it." ”

"The lowly knows that he has recruited all the Langzhong in the city. These casualties are mainly caused by artillery, and if there is no countermeasure, I am afraid that it will still be difficult to defend tomorrow. Wang Ding's face was still a little worried, full of worry, "Duzhen, in addition to casualties, the key is that the city wall is seriously damaged, if the thieves always maintain such an attack, tomorrow's casualties will probably be even greater." ”

After hearing this, Chen Youlong couldn't help but stop and turned around, "Then let people repair it overnight, how much can be done, and then let people go to Guiyang and transport a few red-coated cannons as soon as possible." ”

Several Hongyi cannons in Guiyang were lost halfway when Wang Yan entered Sichuan three years ago because the road was difficult to travel and it was really difficult to transport.

This year's road to Guiyang was repaired, and these cannons that were thrown in the middle of the road were transported to Guiyang one by one.

"I understand that I will order my subordinates to do it as soon as possible."

Wang Ding nodded, it can only be like this at present, but he estimates that the artillery will not play a big role, there are only a few in total, and it is impossible to suppress the hundreds of artillery trucks of the thief army, and the red-coated cannon is actually not suitable for defending the city at all.

"More than 3,000 people fled into Yunnan, and no one in the government and the opposition paid attention to it and did not pay enough attention to it, but who would have thought that Sun Kewang has become a major threat to the imperial court in the southwest." Chen Youlong sighed a little.

After speaking, he continued to walk forward, Wang Ding and the others saw this, and hurriedly followed, "Yes, in just two years, the development of the western thief has become bigger, which is really unpredictable." ”

"The characteristics of thieves are like this, the imperial court defeated Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong several times, but the two thieves can immediately pull up tens of thousands of horses after a period of hibernation. It is reasonable that Sun Kewang has the strength he has now. ”

& amp ; quot ; Governor Town, do you want Guiyang to send some soldiers and horses over? & amp ; quot ;

"Although Sun Kewang has a great threat to the southwest, but compared with Haoge, it is weaker, the most important thing in the southwest at the moment is to block Haoge in Chongqing, if Haoge is allowed to hit Chongqing in one go, maybe the Jin army can go further and rush directly to Guizhou, then the southwest will really be erosive." Chen Youlong was silent for a moment, "So our Guizhou must send troops to support Sichuan, and the main force must be transferred to Chongqing to support, but you don't have to worry too much, although we have been transferred 20,000 people, and there is no town army to come to support, but Inspector He has already recruited Tusi people to rush over." ”

Chen Youlong was talking, when a member of Qianhu hurriedly ran up the city wall from a distance and reported to him: "Governor Town, Sichuan has sent someone over." ”
