In the distance, siege engines rumbled in.

Each one reaches straight into the sky, higher than Yangma City. Once they get close, thousands of Japanese can easily climb up the towers.

In addition, there was not only the pressure from the tools, but also the priests and monks who were unable to deal with the red lotus fire and were severely scolded by Hideyoshi. They all cast spells, causing the originally clear night sky to suddenly rain heavily.

As a result, the individual firearms of the coalition forces that were slightly behind suddenly flamed out, and rockets could not be used to ignite the haystacks.

Among the group of Japanese bandits outside the city, some were topless and were pushed by horses, pushing the siege vehicles forward crazily, as if rushing to reincarnate, while some were holding big bunches of rice and heading down the city layer by layer.

Crazy pile.

Wet hills formed one after another, first filling the moat, and then trenches filled with sharp blades.

During this period, the Ming army did nothing.

There is no general cannon stationed at the east gate, but there are more than a dozen ancient giant catapults——

Two hundred soldiers worked together to carry up the boulders collected in advance.

The remaining nearly a hundred cavalrymen bent their bows and set arrows, and fired at the Japanese army's rain-proof iron artillery team.

Everyone had a death wish and wanted to recruit a few more Japanese bandits to follow them on the road before leaving.

Lu Li's expression was solemn, and he made a bow and arrow gesture. The next moment, a bow and arrow made of divine iron suddenly appeared.

The Zhuque mythical beast carved on it is not realistic, so it is not a work that he put a lot of effort into making, it is a work of practice.

But even so, they are not ordinary soldiers.

Among the Japanese, there were some capable generals who mingled with the group of warriors outside the city and chopped up the huge rocks shot by the catapults in the air to reduce losses.

Little did they know, their actions had turned themselves into targets.

Lu Li was reluctant to use divine iron and arrows made from demon bird tail feathers, and instead used the Ming army's standard iron arrows. They were strong enough and used divine bows as carriers. As long as they penetrated vital points, they could kill Japanese generals.

Bend the bow and nock the arrow.

Three shots at once!

When the sound of breaking wind reached the ears, the foreheads of the team commanders had bloomed, and a smelly mixture of red and white immediately splashed out from the back of their heads.

next round.

As he whispered in his heart, three more iron arrows were missing from the arrow pot. Seeing the generals who were the backbone of the Japanese army fall down one after another, Lu Li was not happy.

Obviously, the east gate where he was located was not the main target at all. There seemed to be many attackers below, but in fact there were no big fish, just a few kittens.

The same must be true for Ximen guarded by the Bull Demon.

Because, both city gates have signs of the existence of red lotus karma fire.

In fact, Simon did not.

The ancient divine beast Zhu Yan and Qi Earth Water God Qing Ji are both Lu Li's vests. They were transformed from him, so you can only choose one.

Otherwise, why would there be such a headache?

There is no need to inquire. The situation in the south and north gates must be critical. Each gate must face at least two daimyo-level legion commanders. In addition, they must also add the seven guns of Shiyue who are famous for their personal combat effectiveness.

Maybe...that Dongguo Wushuang is here too!

Frankly speaking,

Even large-scale general artillery cannot make up for this gap, unless the number is extremely large and multiplied dozens of times on the original basis.

But this kind of powerful weapon for ruling the country is not a street cabbage, there are only a few of them in Nanyuan.

"If you want to kill a thief, you can't save him."

Lu Li murmured.

Today, there are only three hundred soldiers. No, with the Japanese using iron cannons to suppress them from a distance, there are only more than two hundred people left alive to guard this place, and the only hope is themselves.

It is true that the Japanese are feigning an attack, but the number of people is there. Once he leaves to support the other two gates, this place will also be conquered.

It’s hard to think about the head but the tail.

If any one of the four gates is breached, it will be like a breached fortress with no chance of recovery.

"You go to support the south gate and tell Qin Chuan that you must hold on for two hours, and then retreat with the remaining soldiers to the west gate where the demon is. Then join me and fight out together!"

The originally tangled decision became very easy when it was a matter of life and death and I had to make a decision.

In the original history, General Yang Yuan only defended for a few days before being forced to break out from the west gate. Now Lu Li had to follow suit, but the result was horrific.

Who dares to punish him?

Even when he was in front of the imperial court, Lu Li dared to stand tall and speak to anyone. He could even accuse the person being impeached of having bad intentions and being a traitor bought by Japanese bandits!

With so many achievements, as long as the emperor is not blind, he will definitely not want to offend the Liaodong Army guarding the north again, even if Ma Gui insists.

"Sir, what should I do at the north gate?"

One of the hundred households looked excited.

Under this situation, no one was stupid enough to take the initiative to mention how Nanyuan should be defended after breaking out of the siege.

I can't hold it at all!

Rather than die heroically for the country, it is better to serve as a useful person!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this battle still has to be fought. They have bought so much time for the rear. The army mobilization and various strategic arrangements are already so bad that it is not worth dying here.

"I'm going to help guard it for a while."

Lu Li's face was solemn and he said in a deep voice:

"That group of Li Chao militiamen are mainly infantry and cannot be killed at all. I hope they understand this and stay and work together to kill a few more Japanese bandits."

The reality is very cruel.

To put it mildly, they are cannon fodder.

In the peaceful years, they worked like cows and horses, and were bullied by civil servants. When the war came and the country was about to be destroyed, the gentlemen shouted the slogan that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country, but they only focused on their own family and young children to escape for their lives, and encouraged the poor to defend their homes -

So that these carnivores can escape and buy more time.

Of course, when these people were dreaming at midnight, or when they got together to drink and talk, they would pretend to squeeze out a few tears and denounce the Japanese pirates as being really hateful.

Sympathy is sympathy.

The country is weak and the upper class only knows how to be arrogant, extravagant and nepotistic. This is the main culprit.

No wonder Ming Dynasty.

Four thousand cavalry were far away from their homeland, and it was not easy for five hundred to finally leave Nanyuan alive.

If you don’t quit, uukanshu.com www.uukanshu.com What else do you want?

As what everyone calls the Commander-in-Chief, Lu Li has to think about it for them.

At this moment, the more than two hundred warriors who had originally had a life-or-death ambition, upon hearing that there was hope for survival, instantly showed gratitude in their eyes.

How ironic is this scene?

Japanese pirates are really hateful!

While his mind was agitated, Lu Li did not forget that he had something serious to do.

As piles of large bundles were piled up, the straw under the city had been piled very high, and the siege engines that were pretending to be pushed over were getting closer and closer.

Heavy rain can cause the Ming army's firearms to malfunction, but it cannot stop the true fire of Samadhi.

A ball of flame the size of a fist was thrown out, and then, the five-animal fan exchanged with someone in A Chinese Ghost Story appeared in his hand.

This magical weapon that could fuel the fire swelled in the wind. Lu Li fanned it twice, and the Samadhi True Fire, which was only the size of a fist, spread rapidly, quickly evaporating the rainwater below and igniting the fodder and wood.

"Use this to resist temporarily. After two hours, immediately leave and head to the west gate."

The feather fan was handed to a hundred households.

In fact, under the scorching heat of Samadhi's true fire, this city gate will collapse on its own in one night at most, and it will not be able to hold on for too long.
