Chapter 226 This is also the famous king of the two towers!
My head was blown up!
No, it was a violent explosion in the box containing the head!
Fourteen people, including Shang Zhixiao, Shang Zhidian, Li Rucai, and eleven other Shang Zhidian Goshha, were all affected by the power of the explosion, and all died in this "head explosion" incident. Some died on the spot, while others were seriously injured and waiting for death!
Needless to say, this "head explosion" incident was a thunder attack planned by Zhu San's grandson Zhu Hetong, which was specially modified with two dead heads. There was a mezzanine layer, which contained two thunders made by Zhu Hetong himself.
This is not an ordinary thunder, but two "high law" thunders installed with the "yellow phosphorus friction ignition cable" made by Zhu Heying himself!
The yellow phosphorus cable uses the principle of early yellow phosphorus matches, which can be lit with a little friction, which is too unsafe. Therefore, it is not possible to use it as a grenade ignition device, but it is suitable for this wooden box sky thunder.
When the box was handed over to Shang Zhixiao and Li Rucai, the cable of the bomb was hung on the lid of the wooden box. When the lid was opened, the cable rubbed and ignited the lead wire that was soaked in the sugar medicine. The lead wire sent the flame into the sky thunder, and then there was a big explosion!
"It's a pity that's just a little bit! Who is this? Why stop Shang Zhixiao? If he doesn't stop him, he might have taken Tuhai, Sun Yanling, Sun Sike, and Ma Xiong in one fell swoop!"
The person who was yelling about a pity was of course Zhu Hetong, the grandson of Zhu San, who planned the attack.
His original plan was to stew Tuhai, Sun Yanling, Sun Sike, and Ma Xiong. If these guys were killed, it would be difficult to win this battle without a big victory!
As a result, the filial son Shang Zhidian was ruined!
"Criminal, that's Shangzhidian," Yang Qilong put down the Qianli Mile Mile, with a regretful expression on his face, "What a pity! If I had known that this thunder was so powerful, I should have taken it to Beijing to bomb Xuanye."
"It's not easy to explode Xuanye," Zhu Heying shook his head, "This day, the thunder box will leak when it is checked. How can I not check the things given to the emperor?"
"There are also some who don't check it," Yang Qilong gritted his teeth, "If you don't check the secret box for Xuanye, you can just send it to the guard office outside Taihe Gate! However, after this incident, Xuanye will definitely open the box first and then take out the secret box for him!"
What a pity! Zhu Heying also felt a pity now, and almost blown up the "Little Holy Lord" of the Qing Dynasty.
"But the size of the person who was just bombed is also a figure," Yang Qilong said again. "If I read it correctly, that person should be Shang Kexi's son Shang Zhidian. He was originally a hostage in Beijing, but was sent by Xuanye to Guangdong to be the prince of Pingnan. You are considered two famous kings!"
"Two famous kings?" Zhu Heying thought, it seemed like that, "Haha, Gu family is catching up with King Li Jin, but this is just the beginning of Gu family clearing the world!"
At this time, the shouts of Guangdong Mandarin sounded again on the battlefield: "Pingxi Bo Wu Sangui has raised his troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. He will sweep Guangxi soon."
This shouting is actually part of Zhu Hetang's strategy to attack his heart.
The tactic he adopted in this high-level battle was to "attack the heart first, then fight in the field". The so-called "attack the heart" was divided into three parts. One was to bombard the Qing army camp with rockets last night; the second was to kill Shang Kexi and launch an attack with a "human-headed bomb"; the third was to spread the news that Wu Sangui had rebelled, and also declare that Wu Sangui was about to advance to Guangxi!
If three arrows are fired at once, how can they shake the morale of the Qing army?
Seeing that Shang Zhidian was bombed to death, Tuhai had not yet reacted from the shock at this time! He was not only shocked by Shang Zhidian's death, but also shocked by the ruthlessness, despicability and treacherousness of Zhu San Grandson Zhu Hetong!
How could Emperor Chongzhen have such a bad grandson? Kill me in front of someone else's son, then put my head in a "thunder box" and use it to blow up my son. This is not a bad guy who is so bad that he usually can't do it.
If a king who is so bad as to have a certain degree of strength, it is generally difficult to defeat.
Just when he thought about how bad Zhu and Ji were, the Ming army's shouts sounded again, and when Shang Kexi was beheading, the shouts stopped for a while, and now they are getting up again.
However, he, the Manchus, couldn't understand Cantonese Mandarin, so he turned around and asked Zhou Peigong, "What are they shouting?"
"It seems that" Zhou Peigong is from Hubei after all, and he has had a lot of contact with local officials and scholars in Guangdong during this period and has heard a lot of Cantonese Mandarin, so he can still understand it after working hard.
"Wu Sangui! They said that Wu Sangui was rebelling and was attacking Guangxi!" Zhou Peigong said this, his face suddenly changed, "No! The Han flag soldiers and green camp soldiers from Guangxi can understand this."
Zhou Peigong could understand this, let alone those green camp soldiers and flag soldiers who lived and even grew up in Guangxi and Guangdong?
"Bang the drum! Fire the cannon!"
Tu Haima, who knew something was wrong, issued an order to bombard the shelling.
As a sound of drums sounded, more than a hundred goalkeepers who were listed in front of the Qing army began to tremble at the same time, and then clusters of black smoke were sprayed out.
The smoke was quite big. After one round of artillery bombardment, there was already black smoke in front of the Qing army!
The cannon sound was also quite loud, and the rumbling rumbling quickly covered the shouts of the Ming army opposite.
But the accuracy of the shelling is indescribable.
These are general artillery with very poor artillery accuracy, and the distance is too far, so the cannon can barely reach the Ming army's position. There is no accuracy at all, and at most it can only be heard.
However, Tuhai's shelling order still achieved some goals. At least the Ming army was no longer calling for "Wu Sangui's rebellion", and the shaky morale of the Qing army seemed to have recovered a little.
"The order to order Guangdong Admiral Yan Ziming to be the governor of Pingnan Prince Shang Zhijie!" Tu Hai ordered again at this time, "The Guangdong army is under their command and let them launch an attack immediately to avenge the two Pingnan Princes!
Then I ordered Deng Zhong that he would personally lead the Fire Thunder Team to follow Yan Ziming's people up and not be busy throwing thunder. First, build a cannon and set up a cannon!"
After giving these two orders, Tu Hai couldn't help but sigh again.
How should we report this to the top if we die two kings of Pingnan at one time?
One of them was buried once, and even had a posthumous title! How to report this? Could it be that King Jing of Pingnan was resurrected and died?
"The Qing Yao is coming!"
Yang Qilong, who had been holding a thousand-mile mirror to observe the situation on the front line, suddenly shouted, "Pushing the shield cart to see the flag, it should be the vassal army of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion in Guangdong Green Camp. They pressed up to the two wings of our army. There were about 3,000 people from each of the two routes, and they were also pushing the shield cart."
Zhu Heying laughed and said, "Okay, just be willing to come and die!"
The sound of drums and cannons rumbled. Under the guidance of the green camp and the flags of the vassal princes' palace flag army, the five or six thousand Qing troops were divided into two groups and pressed towards the left and right wings of the Ming army.
The front of the Ming army was actually very narrow, only five or six miles in total. So the front of the Qing army, which was divided into two routes, was even narrower, less than one mile, that is, two infantry and military formations were pushing shield chariots in front, followed by a few cavalry that were pressing the formation.
At the same time, the generals laid in the middle of the Qing army were still firing artillery to bombard the Ming army's camps. Although there was no casualties, they could still give the attacking Qing army a courage. They could make the Shang family army, who had just died, step forward and die!
The Ming army's position was quiet and did not launch artillery counterattacks. This time they marched by land, so they could not carry heavy artillery, and only brought some three-pound field cannons cast in bronze. Although the power of this artillery was stronger than that of the Qing army's general cannons, the power of long-range fire was still insufficient.
