As soon as the troops saw this formation, their excited expressions immediately froze.

The shouts from the city shook the sky, and the enemy took advantage of the gap in the loading of shells to regroup the ground forces to attack again, and in the dust and sand in the distance, another piece of men and horses from Hesse showed their heads.

The centaur was waving a golden handsome flag in the center, and the big red cover was hidden next to it, which was the army of the headquarters of the Ota Army.

Yan Zongbing put down his clairvoyance, made a gesture, someone around him rushed to the back window, squeaked twice and released the arrow, the arrow body exploded in the air, the smoke burst red and yellow, the defenders on the south of the city, the north of the city and the east of the city immediately heard the sound and moved, divided the troops to help, several generals and leaders brought over are crossbowmen and firecrackers, arrived and immediately put into battle, weaving a firepower network in the air to intercept the enemy's eagle wing troops. Chen Shengyi brandished a golden knife, and Xinlu led the crowd to defend the city, killing the Tartars who landed and climbed the city.

At the foot of the city, even people and horses, the corpses are like mountains, the enemy specially allocated a team of people to pile up and carry them, plus the rolling wood and stones thrown down, quickly piled up into a gentle slope, the rear army stepped on the corpses, straight to the middle of the city wall, the escalator is much easier, and the battle situation is getting more and more intense.

The sound of the stairs after pedaling, General Yan looked back, Qin Langchuan took An Ziteng, Chang Sihao, and Yu Zhide upstairs, Qin Langchuan concisely: "Tell me about the situation!"

General Yan pointed with his hand and said very quickly: "The enemy army uses the cavalry and archery troops as the vanguard to open the way, the speed is very fast, and the longbow and heavy arrows used have an extremely long range and amazing power. Now the former army has used horse carcasses to fill in the moat to build a flat bridge, and what is even more hateful is that they actually borrowed the power of the wind and war horses to throw people directly into the city, and the threat is very great! According to my estimates, they used no less than 40,000 horses and horses in the vanguard alone, nearly half of their troops!

Qin Langchuan looked out of the window, and more than 300 people of the enemy's Eagle Wing troops had landed at the head of the city and were fighting bloody battles with the defenders, while another four or five hundred people were still in the air, constantly firing at the ground, and both sides suffered casualties. The dense Tartars outside the city were all red-eyed, howling and screaming, and they looked like crazy, and they all rushed forward bravely despite the fierce artillery fire, and the wood and stones were like rain. In the distance, the flags of the main army of Alta were like a sea, approaching as quickly as the rising tide, and the sound of the hooves of tens of thousands of horsemen shook the earth.

Although Chang Sihao has been fighting in battle, the momentum of the soldiers is far worse than these Tartars, thinking that it has only been a short time from the dart game to the arrow tower, and the battle has been carried out to such a white-hot level, it seems that the enemy is really ruthless!

He swept his eyes and found something strange, and said strangely: "Strange, the Tartars did not go to attack the city gate." ”

Yan Zongbing said: "The city gate has a number of weights, and there is an urn city, I have fought Datong more than once before, I heard the general who has been stationed here for a long time said, the Tartar has eaten more than once the loss of catching turtles in the urn, relatively speaking, the city wall is relatively easy to attack." Before these two sentences could be uttered, more than 100 eagle-winged enemy soldiers landed on the city. An Ziteng drew his knife and said: "Although there are not many of these people, they are extremely threatening, and they must not be allowed to settle down in the city!"

"I'll go!"

Before the words fell, Chang Sihao rushed out directly from the window, a swallow flew down the arrow tower, and went straight to the top of the enemy army that had landed, choking and collapsing springs, and the two long knives of Xue Zhan and Ben Lei were unsheathed at the same time, and the white light flashed, and the two Tartar heads in the vicinity were swept away, and their feet were on the ground, joining the battle group.

"Big brother, you're here!"

Someone laughed and greeted not far away, the red clothes were like butterflies, it was Qin Juexiang, his face was excited, and he was shooting the hidden weapon into the air without stopping, hitting more accurately than the firecracker, and the middle of the one was all splashed with blood and killed.

Chang Sihao smiled at him between swinging his knife, and said loudly: "Jue Xiang, you be careful!" Qin Jue Xiang didn't care: "These tartars are not much stronger than sparrows, and they can also hurt the deity? Don't worry!" Chang Sihao saw that there were Gu Yanxin and Mo Ruzhi around him who were focused on maintaining it, and he didn't worry, so he let go and slaughtered people.

Yu Zhide and An Ziteng then swung their knives to kill, and An Ziteng shouted: "Young master, isn't Lei Sheng guarding the east of the city with you? What about the others? Why didn't they come over?" Qin Jue spat loudly and scolded: "! I stayed together for the past two days, I thought he was a good person, but when he came over just now and saw this situation, he was so frightened that he immediately turned around and ran, what the hell! More than 20 cakes in one meal are eaten and dog's belly are gone? Bai Chang is such a big man! You people who divide the rudder are too inferior!"

When An Ziteng heard this, his face was a little unbearable, so he had to move hard, the enemy's strong arrows in the air were like rain, and there were constantly Tartars turning up at the bottom of the ladder, and the Ming army was difficult to take care of, and the battle was extremely hard. Suddenly, a roar was heard in mid-air, a cannon thundered, more than a dozen Eagle Wing enemy soldiers were blown to pieces, and the air flow generated by the explosion caused other people to deviate in the air, and a few could not control it, and fell down into meat patties with a whirlwind.

Qin Juexiang looked sideways, and saw a big man like a mountain bear running next to him, with his upper body bare, his muscles were tight and full, full of elasticity, and he was holding a small black bucket with a thick barrel, and the green smoke from the muzzle of the gun had not dispersed.

The Tartars and the defenders in the battle were all shocked when they saw it: this man was holding the Fran cannon on the fort at the head of the city!

The Franc cannon is divided into two parts, the mother gun is the gun body, there is a front sight and a light door on it, there is a long notch in the rear, and there are multiple sub-guns, and the gun can be fired after the internal loading ammunition is placed in the mother gun groove, and only the sub-gun needs to be replaced when the next shell is fired, and the loading speed is very fast, and this design is extremely advanced. Its manufacturing method is learned from the Portuguese, at the beginning of this year was officially mass-produced and put into use, Datong as a frontier town, the first batch of factory was divided into fifty-two pieces of equipment to help the city defense, because of its heavier weight, must be chiseled stone to build a platform to place, the thick barrel is cast of fine iron, the weight of three or four hundred catties, was held by this big man with the cannon ear in his hand, but it is as easy as a firecracker.

Qin Juexiang's body was lit with a hidden weapon, and while holding a stronger crossbow, he scolded with a smile: "!

Yin Lei Sheng laughed and said: "The fight here is in full swing, and our cannon over there is still idle, so I brought it here, young master, don't worry, I won't embarrass the Qin family, and I won't discredit Datong!"

Qin Juexiang smiled and said, "Okay, it's up to you!"

"Lei Sheng be careful!" An Ziteng reminded with a loud shout.

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a few strong arrows were shot at his feet, "I'll fuck your grandma!" Yin Lei Sheng hurriedly lowered his body, and replaced the sub-gun to reload and fire, the sub-gun was loaded with flowering shells, hitting one person, exploding a piece, the enemy air force had nowhere to escape, how could it stand it, and most of the casualties were killed and wounded after a few cannons.

The rain of arrows on the head was scarce, the pressure dropped sharply, and the soldiers in the city saw that the morale of the army was greatly boosted, and they all moved forward bravely!

The Tartar who had already climbed the city was forced to retreat step by step, seeing that there were battlements behind him, and if he took another step back, he would fall down from the city and fall into flesh, and everyone thought of one place: the left and right are death, why not kill him a few more Ming soldiers to accompany the funeral! The fear in his chest suddenly disappeared, and he braved the guns and halberds to slash desperately, and his mouth roared so loudly.

General Yan looked at the battle situation from the arrow tower, his expression was solemn, and he spared his life against the tens of thousands of people in the attack, and the sound of screaming could cover the sound of artillery, and the scene was really palpitating.

"Your Excellency, we've picked it up!" a sergeant ran up from the top of the ladder, holding the fragment of the eagle-winged giant kite in his hand.

"Take it and see!"

Yan Zongbing and Qin Langchuan took it around, spread the fragments on the ground, combined them slightly, and spelled out a rough gestalt, the eagle wings were made of ordinary fabric, and the surrounding was tied to the supporting skeleton with leather strips, and the shape was relatively simple.

"This thing is well designed," Qin Langchuan fiddled with, "but judging from the materials, the folding skeleton is all transformed with arrow shafts, which is obviously a temporary construction, and in my opinion, the number will never be too much." ”

Yan Zongbing said: "Today's northwest wind is blowing about four watches, according to the time, at that time the enemy was already on the way, come up with such a means and immediately put it into practice, can be used in the face of war, the efficiency is quite high." ”

Qin Langchuan glanced at his blackened eyes, and said lightly: "How easy people are to do things, 80,000 troops, it's not easy to do something." ”

He paced a few steps slowly, turned his head to look out the window, and when the main army approached, he slowed down a little, as if he was observing the battle.

Looking at his military appearance and combat strength, it is obvious that he did not suffer much damage when he went south to attack Shuozhou and other places, if he attacked like today, his strength would never be preserved so completely, it seems that the previous strategic analysis was wrong, and the first line of attacking Shuozhou in the south was just a disguise, his mind never left Datong, and the fierceness and determination of this surprise attack have proved this. The so-called military deeds, I replied that he was an expert in actual combat, and his actions were really unexpected, but although this move was unexpected, it was also reasonable, in fact, he took Shuozhou, there was Datong, and there was still a barrier in Beijing, since he was going to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and force the imperial court to make a decision on the matter of Tonggong, then Datong is the most suitable. From this point of view, it has become a good thing that there is no reinforcement to the south, otherwise the reinforcements will meet the enemy on the way, and there is no way to defend it, how can they be able to defeat the 80,000 army, and the iron hooves will pass by, and the people will be gone.

General Yan said: "The enemy army is now attacking head-on, the loss is about six to seven times that of our army, and only a few of them fly to the city with the power of the zither. ”

Qin Langchuan was not optimistic: "If we can't take the city in one go, our morale will decline after a long time, and I won't know this, so he won't give us time to breathe." ”

Before the words fell, I saw that the main army outside the city had changed its route to the left and went straight to the south of the city!
