【Chapter 401】All sent to the guillotine!

(0401) As long as there are no large-caliber redcoat cannons, there is nothing to fear. Of course, if you have a trebuchet, you can also deal with such an earthen weapon. A boulder falls down, and anything can be smashed into meat sauce. It's a pity that there is no one in Pingyu City. In addition, the solid shells fired by the Franc cannon also have a certain effect. It's a pity that the hit rate of solid shells is too low to hit at all. As a result, the white-clothed army was getting closer and closer to the city gate.

"Block them!"

"Shoot! Shoot! Block them! ”

Lu Yide subconsciously sensed that it was not good, and hurriedly shouted.

His soldiers, musketeers, fired their guns in ping-pong, sending the ground around the target into a splash of dirt. And the archers kept firing their arrows, and the arrows kept falling around the target. However, without exception, none of these projectiles and arrows have any effect. The white-clothed soldiers, hiding under the table of the Eight Immortals and the wet quilt, continued to advance.

Lu Yide gathered his own soldiers and asked them to shoot specifically to prevent the target from approaching. His own soldiers, equipped with imitation Lumi guns, have a longer range than ordinary firearms, and have better accuracy. At a distance of about 30 zhang, the lethality is still relatively objective. However, the projectile shot out by Lu Mi Gong encountered a wet quilt, and there was also nothing to be done. The caliber of the Lumi gun is too small, which is destined to be quite weak in penetrating power.

On the contrary, it was the white-clothed army's Yue Yue Gong who fully demonstrated his power at this time. The caliber of a finger and the rifled gun are enough to overwhelm all muskets on the battlefield and become the overlord on the battlefield. Perhaps the penetration of the Mini bullet is also a little weak, but the caliber of 16.7 mm ensures that it can penetrate most armor within the effective range. As long as you are hit, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Chirp!"

Constant Mini bullets whistled across the city, bringing the greetings of death.

Many officers and soldiers were pressed by Minnie's bullets and did not dare to raise their heads at all. They clung to the back of the battlements, keeping no visible parts of their bodies from being exposed. Those soldiers who were not afraid of death had already been killed by Minnie's bullets. There was blood everywhere on the city, and it was all shot by Minnie. Some of the soldiers of the Ming army were hit in the face by Minnie's bullet, and the whole face suddenly blossomed. Even, even the firing of the cannon stopped. The gunners are also hiding. There is no way, the lethality of Mini bullets is too much of a threat to them.

In the ranks of the white-clothed army, the most feared are, of course, the stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry. The other white-clad musketeers were basically salvos with no clear goal. If Mini hits the target, it's pure luck. However, the Eagle Cavalry stragglers are completely different. They took careful aim before they opened their guns decisively. As their guns rang out, there were often Ming soldiers who fell to the ground. Those Ming army officers with obvious markings were the targets of their key attacks. Under their threat, Lu Yide did not dare to show his face.

"Chirp!"

"Puff puff!"

Constant Mini bullets hit the battlements, splashing a lot of dust. The Ming army hiding in the city did not dare to move. The Ming army on the tower of the West Gate City was crushed to death by the musketeers of the white-clothed army, and they didn't even have the courage to look up and observe the situation outside. Because, the guy who tried to probe out to see what was going on before had already been killed. Their bodies haven't been carried away yet. Unless someone wants to repeat the mistakes of the past, no one wants to follow in their footsteps.

Under the cover of the moon gun, the demolition team marched all the way to the city gate cave unharmed. Pingyu City has no moat, making it easy for them to move forward. They let go of the Eight Immortals Table and the wet quilt, and rushed into the city gate hole with light movements. Soon, more than a dozen No. 3 explosive packets were piled up. After lighting the fuse, they immediately and quickly retreated.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

On the side of the white-clothed army, with the heaviest fire, covering the retreat of the demomen, the gunfire shook the sky. Countless Mini bullets flew in the direction of the castle tower together. The officers and soldiers who were suppressed by the gunfire had no chance to fight back. Their minds went blank in shock, completely oblivious to the danger beneath their butts. As a result, the Demomen of the White Army returned to their positions unharmed.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of the sky cracking and the earth cracking.

A black pillar of smoke rose up, and the gate of Pingyu City was quickly opened.

The entire city tower at the west gate of Pingyu City was violently exploded and directly overturned into the air. The Ming army at the head of the city was naturally blown to pieces and disappeared. The violent explosion deformed the entire land around Pingyu City. The sand and gravel that was blown up, the stumps and broken arms, and even flew to the vicinity of Xu Xingxia. If it was an outsider coming, at first glance, it would not be possible to recognize Pingyu City at all.

"It's over!"

"It's completely finished!"

Seeing this, Lu Yide could only wail helplessly.

His reliance was on the walls of the city of Pingyu, and now that the walls were opened, his reliance was gone. The next battle is basically no suspense, but it is just a copy of the battle of the Qingshui Battalion. The difference is that this time, he is only afraid that he will not have such good luck in the Qingshui Camp. Whether you can escape or not, you have to say twice!

"Plug the gap!"

Lu Yide finally reacted quickly and hurriedly ordered the gap to be closed.

He drew his sword and ordered the soldiers around him to assemble in the direction of the gap. He demanded that his subordinates, no matter what means they used, must close the gap. However, in private, he quietly signaled his own soldiers, changed his clothes, and prepared to retreat. As a general, he had two or three hundred personal soldiers, all of whom he fed with silver. This is his last armed force, and whether they can get out of trouble depends on them.

"Kill!" A loud shout of killing came. Lu Yide turned his head to look, and unfortunately found that the Ming troops who tried to seal the gap were quickly defeated by the swarming white-clothed army. The white-clothed army, which poured up like a tide, did not shoot at all, but directly used bayonets to break down the Ming army's defensive line. In front of them, the Ming army was as fragile as noodles. There is no way, the city gate is opened, and most of the Ming army no longer has the will to fight, and they have no intention of fighting.

"Withdraw!"

"Come with me, everybody!"

Seeing that the opportunity was not good, Lu Yide hurriedly shouted.

He took his own soldiers and hurriedly retreated to the south gate of Pingyu City.

This was planned by him early in the morning, and if the battle situation was unfavorable, he would immediately retreat to the south gate. As long as you rush out of the south gate, you can desperately flee in the direction of Ningxia City. However, if he wants to leave, he has to agree to the white army, right? This time, the white-clothed army concentrated five armies and attacked Pingyu City. In addition to the troops attacking the West Gate, the other three city gates also had special troops to attack. In addition, there are reserves. Outside the reserves, there were also skirmishers of the Eagle Cavalry. Among them, the ones responsible for attacking the south gate were the lion cavalry and the mastiff cavalry.

Lu Yide has the intention of escaping, how could Xu Xingxia not know? Last time in Qingshui Camp, Lu Yide escaped from Shengtian, and he was already very unhappy. If Lu Yide is allowed to escape again this time, Xu Xingxia estimates that he will not be able to forgive himself. Lu Yide is an important minion of Li Guozhen, and he must be killed as soon as possible. Therefore, he deployed two armies at the south gate of Pingyu City in one go, just waiting for Lu Yide to throw himself into the net.

Xu Xingxia's deployment soon played the role of a substantive surname. Lu Yide did hit his head into the net this time. In fact, in the battle just now, it was not Zhang Quanfu's department, who was the first to blow up the city gate, but Gao Jie's troops. The mastiff cavalry led by him blew up the city gate a little slower, but the action of entering the city was faster than Zhang Quanfu. Even, Gao Jie himself, was the first to rush to the front.

Gao Jie was originally an unruly guy, and he had an indescribable bullish energy all over his body. He knows very well that if he wants to get ahead, he must be braver than others, more cunning than others, and more ruthless than others. Only in this way can more combat exploits be established, so that Xu Xingxia can pay attention to himself. Therefore, when he trained his troops, he always aimed at madmen. If you don't practice crazy, you won't stop! It just so happened that Lu Yide's retreating troops met Gao Jie. This time, Gao Jie suddenly became energetic.

What a godsend! What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Damn it! How so? Lu Yide couldn't help but lament loudly.

He really didn't expect that when he got out, he would suddenly encounter a group of crazy people. The battle movements of the mastiff cavalry are simply a group of crazy people, who don't care at all, rushing and beating violently, as if they were drunk. Lu Yide's team, almost instantly, was broken by this group of madmen. He knew very well that this was the most critical moment, and once he was entangled, he would not be able to get out. If he can't get out quickly, what awaits him must be a very beautiful fate. Old Demon Xu was staring at him silently.

"Rush out! Only by rushing out can you survive! Lu Yide shouted desperately.

"Kill them! Kill them all! Don't let one go! Gao Jie shouted menacingly.

He saw Lu Yide's figure from a distance. Although Lu Yide took off the armor of a general and changed into the uniform of an ordinary soldier, the handwriting team around him revealed his identity. Who else can be protected by hundreds of pro-soldiers except Lu Yide? Gao Jie is not a fool, he can judge it in a blink of an eye. Knowing that the other party is a person with a great background, how could Gao Jie let it go easily? Of course, he was beaten to death.

Gao Jie's own mastiff cavalry was not enough, so he immediately summoned the lion cavalry army with high merit. The lion cavalry army commanded by Gao Yigong was also responsible for attacking the south gate. The two troops converged and immediately blocked the south gate to the ground. Lu Yide became more and more anxious, so he had to attack desperately. As a result, the two sides fought near the south gate of Pingyu City, one wanted to escape, and the other wanted to block, which was difficult to solve. There are countless corpses in layers.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The white-hot gunfire at the south gate naturally attracted the attention of the other white-clothed soldiers. After eliminating the enemy in front of them, they quickly assembled at the south gate. Xu Xingxia himself also entered Pingyu City and went down the street to the south gate. He estimated that Lu Yide was there. A large number of carve cavalry stragglers simply gathered from outside the city near the south gate, forming a new blockade outside the city again. Even if Lu Yide successfully broke out of the south gate, he would have to pass through the stragglers of the Eagle Cavalry. It can be said that today, Lu Yide is absolutely dead.

The Mastiff Cavalry Army commanded by Gao Jie, although it is a newly established unit, its combat effectiveness is not weak. In particular, this standard three-stage shooting is the most basic subject of ordinary training, and it is impossible for the level to be low and the skill to be unproficient. The three squadrons of the Mastiff Cavalry happened to shoot in turns. A fierce volley of guns just blocked the Ming soldiers. If you encounter a desperate counterattack by the Ming army, the lions and cavalry behind will also come up and shoot in turns, strengthen firepower, and attack head-on. Even if Lu Yide was furious, he was helpless.

After repeated battles, the number of soldiers around Lu Yide is estimated to be two or three thousand. In addition to those who were killed, many people fled. On the side of the white-clothed army, the strength of two armies is almost close to 2,000 people. In the case that everyone's strength is basically equal, where is the Ming army the opponent of the white-clothed army? The musket power of both sides is not at all the same grade. Besides, the chaotic Ming army has long had no intention of fighting, and its morale is basically zero.

"Kill!"

At this time, the shouting and killing sound behind was also close. The other units of the White Army, successively solving the frontal enemy, pressed towards the south gate of Pingyu City. All the remaining Ming troops were also driven to the south gate of Pingyu City. This time, Lu Yide was really desperate. He began to feel his spine, cold, as if frozen in an ice cellar. At the beginning of the battle, he definitely didn't expect that his fate would be like this.

The combat effectiveness of the white-clothed army far exceeded his expectations. Last time, in the Qingshui Camp, he was able to escape with his life, obviously due to luck. At that time, the white-clothed army had no intention of attacking the Qingshui camp at all. Otherwise, he would have been doomed long ago. The fortifications of the city walls of Pingyu City were stronger than the Qingshui camp, and as a result, it was also captured in a matter of moments. It can be seen that even if there is a city wall to rely on, his 5,000 soldiers are still scum! I'm afraid that this time, even Ningxia City will not be able to defend it. If the white-clothed army continues to attack Ningxia City!

Unable to advance or retreat, the Ming soldiers could only raise their hands and surrender. They threw their weapons at their knees, hands raised. Others simply lay on the ground to avoid being hit by the whistling Minnie bullets. Lu Yide was naturally not among those who surrendered. Even if he surrendered, he would be hacked to death by Xu Xingxia. Desperate, he could only desperately find a place to hide, and he was able to hide for a while.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, Lu Yide felt that there seemed to be a sound of wind coming from the back of his neck. Before he could react, he felt that his back had been slashed hard. The force of the impact almost knocked him to the ground. Fortunately, his body has always been burly, and his vitality is tenacious, and he has not fallen to the ground after being stabbed.

"You ......"

Lu Yide turned his head with difficulty and looked behind him in disbelief.

It was not the men of the white-clothed army who slashed him in the back, but the soldiers under him. To be precise, it was his own soldiers who were fed with silver. He didn't expect that these pro-soldiers would actually do something to him. This knife, although it did not kill him, cut his vertebrae, making him completely lose the ability to fight back.

"Against you...... You guys...... It's ...... the other way around."

Lu Yide said subconsciously. However, he just uttered these words, and he swallowed. Because, there were several knives in a row, and they slashed him in the back. Among them, there was also a knife that stabbed directly into his ribs. His pro-soldiers, when they moved, were not polite at all. They directly cut off Lu Yide's body and waist.

"The White Army wants your head, not ours! Only when you die, we will live! Before he died, Lu Yide heard a Ming soldier say this to himself. At the same time, he found that the other soldiers were looking at him with mocking pity and contempt. It's as if he's a clown. He suddenly felt that he was really a failure. If there was a regret medicine in the world, he would definitely buy it and eat it. It's just a pity that no. Immediately after, he fell into darkness unwillingly.

Soon, Lu Yide's head was sent to the hands of the white-clothed army. Gao Jie and Gao Yigong didn't know Lu Yide, so they submitted it step by step. It was sent to Xu Xingxia until it was judged to be Lu Yide. Since Lu Yide was dead, the other Ming soldiers immediately stopped resisting and all raised their hands in surrender. Keep fighting, they have only a dead end. The gunfire gradually died down, marking the end of the battle. The white-clothed army began to clean up the battlefield. The captured Ming soldiers were all sent out of the city.

A brief inventory of the battlefield shows that in this battle, the white-clothed army killed and wounded more than 1,300 officers and soldiers, and captured more than 3,500 officers and soldiers. The white-clothed army itself had more than 20 casualties, and it was speculated that it might be the accidental injury of Yue Yue.

"What about Peng Feng? Where is he? Xu Xingxia asked in a deep voice.

"He was shot and killed in front of his house." Gao Yigong replied cautiously.

He took Xu Xingxia to Peng Feng's corpse. Peng Feng was outside the door of a thousand houses, and was chased by the soldiers of the Lion Cavalry, and was shot and killed on the spot. Lu Yide died, Peng Feng died, the participating Ming soldiers were captured, and the entire Pingyu City and the forces that opposed Xu Xingxia were swept away. Gao Jie gave full play to his true character as a killer demon king, and led the mastiff cavalry army to search for enemies everywhere. And the military households in Pingyu City also spontaneously organized and sent all the guys they didn't like to the guillotine.
