Ma Fengsun screamed in his heart that it was not good. He first wrapped the boat with fishing nets, and then used kerosene to seal the river surface...
Then...are you going to burn them all to death in the river in that urn city?
"Paddle! Hurry!"
"Exit Watergate!"
Ma Fengsun yelled, but he didn't need to say anything. The boats behind him that were close to the Panmen water gate had already used the stern as the bow and the bow as the stern, and planned to exit the water gate backwards. However, there was no telling how much fire was poured into the water.
The fire was so fierce that the boats were entangled in Didong's fishing nets. No matter how hard they tried, the boats on fire could not move.
The city wall was there, and under the command of the two princes, arrows poured down the river as if they were asking for nothing. A group of panicked Japanese and the remnants of the Zhang family were shot down in the burning river. Some people were also shot down.
Coal dazzled with flames and jumped into the river, trying to force himself to swim on the bank.
However, it was all in vain. At some point, a circle of heavily armed Ming troops appeared on the shore, and a group of Suzhou guards firmly guarded the position near the shore. Even if one or two people were lucky enough to swim in,
Near the shore, what greeted him was a forest of spears from the Ming army...
Panmen Wengcheng instantly became a blazing purgatory. Many Japanese and remnants of the Zhang family died in the river one by one without even touching the corners of the defenders' clothes.
Dead and worthless.
"It's over." Ma Fengsun felt desolate in his heart. He had already changed three boats, and that one was already the fourth. But even if he changed to the east, he was afraid that the bright moon would not be able to escape the fate of being buried in that river.
When his heart was desolate, he raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, follow me and swim over there. Kill one bright dog to make enough money, kill two bright dogs to make a lot of money..."
Before I could finish speaking, I suddenly felt a chill in my throat, and I couldn't say the next words.
Take a look at your legs and you will see that there is a sharp arrow stuck in your throat...
"What a fierce leader of thieves. At that time, I really want to resist..." Under the eaves of the city tower hidden in the darkness, Zhu Su took a telescope and confirmed that Ma Fengsun, the leader of the thieves, was shot through the throat by an arrow.
Falling into the water, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
The temporarily collected kerosene is not oil after all. In fact, by now, the fire on the river has been almost extinguished. If those thieves lead others to risk their lives by swimming in the water and charge, the Suzhou Guards, who are neglectful of training, will be frightened.
There may be some flaws...
That's why he asked Cao Yuan's men, who had military morale, to guard the river bank.
"Dog, your archery skills are good." Zhu Su patted the dog holding the big bow next to him. The dog hurriedly lowered his head, but his face couldn't help showing joy. Now he is even more demanding than Zhu Su.
Much taller and taller. Regardless of his immense strength, Zhu Su noticed his shooting skills when he was ordered to attack with the Qin King's cavalry.
At that time, he thought about using the dog's shooting skills... As a time traveler, the first thing that came to mind was naturally sniping legs and beheading operations.
Hiding in the dark and sniping at enemy generals is not a man's romance! It is also the most effective way to weaken the enemy's fighting spirit.
So Zhu Su just tried his best and let Zhu Xi and Zhu Di take charge of the overall situation. Anyway, what should be arranged has been arranged, so he just let the Suzhou Guard's bow legs release arrows.
He took his dog to find a high place, used binoculars to find the general who was giving orders, and then used his bow and arrow to snipe.
"Surrender! They surrender..." Sure enough, when they saw Ma Fengsun falling into the river, someone in the river immediately shouted, "He is willing to surrender, so spare his life!"
The Ming army had a tradition of not killing and surrendering. Sure enough, the rain of arrows on the city wall stopped after hearing this, and the soldiers all looked at Zhu Xi and Yang Lu over there.
Yang Lu looked at Zhu Xi, while Zhu Xi was still hesitating, but Zhu Di was already one step forward and said loudly: "Keep shooting arrows! Don't stop to the east!"
"Those thieves will never be allowed to reach the shore! We must shoot them all to death in this barbican city!"
Zhu Di knew very well that among those thieves, there were not only the remnants of the Zhang family, but quite a few Japanese. Even if the remnants of the Zhang family truly surrendered, if they stopped shooting arrows and waited for the river to dissipate in flames, the Suzhou guards would most likely have to greet them.
Japanese frontal attack.
He is very good at shooting arrows into the river while standing in a safe place. With the level of Suzhou Guards, can he withstand Japanese pirates who are like wolves and tigers?
Zhu Su also heard Zhu Di's decisive decision and nodded approvingly: With the fourth brother here, those turtles in the jar outside the city gate will be fine.
Those who are looking for food now should be the remaining bandits outside the city.
…
Outside the city, the river.
The moment he saw the city gate closed, Zhang Li already felt something was wrong in his heart. When fire suddenly appeared in the originally dark and silent Wengcheng, Zhang Li was so frightened that his face turned ashen.
Fell into a trap!
"Everyone, change direction and return immediately!" After being entangled for a moment between the two options of forcibly attacking the city to rescue the people, and retreating to escape, Zhang Li immediately chose the latter. Coincidentally, the Japanese pirate Oida clan over there
The flagship also immediately chose to retreat. Everyone on the ship paddled their oars as if they were fleeing, and headed back in the direction they came from.
"Huh... It seems that it is... safe for the time being." The city seemed to be ambushing the group of people and boats entering the Wengcheng, and had no time to take care of their boats. Looking at the majestic Panmen Tower getting further and further away, Zhang Li finally
He breathed a sigh of relief. While he was glad that he had listened to Ma Fengsun's words and not entered the city first, he was also wondering why those people in the city didn't directly set up an ambush at the city gate since they already knew that they would attack the city tomorrow night.
Suzhou doesn't have many troops. Is it dangerous to let people into the city?
"Zhang Jun." Just as he was thinking this, Nao Oida jumped on Zhang Li's boat over there. "It seems that there has been an ambush in Suzhou City for a long time..."
"Isn't it strange why they didn't ambush them outside the city? If they had ambushed them outside the city, they could be scared away directly without abolishing those Zhou Zhang..."
"He's thinking about that too." Zhang Li, who came from Dingdong, stroked his Dongba. "Maybe they risked eating as much as they thought about."
"Perhaps, I am thinking about whether I can trick the two of them into the city..."
"The King of Wu of the Ming Dynasty is so brave." Mr. Oida looked back at the fire outside Panmen, and the flesh on his face twitched slightly with pain. "If they come like this, even though they are very
It’s not a serious injury, but it’s no longer possible to continue attacking the city…”
"Zhang Jun, if you come from the east, they should disperse and plunder everywhere to see if they can recover some losses."
"Oita-kun..." Zhang Lilian went to persuade them to stay. "Suzhou City is empty of troops. Zhu Su knew that they wanted to seize the city, but he didn't dare to use his plan to set up an ambush in the east of the city to fight them. That just shows that they have no other choice!"
"If they persist for a few more months, they will definitely have a good chance. Otherwise, let his people try to attack the city by force at dawn..."
He was a little panicked. If he didn't seize this opportunity and seize a city to gain a foothold, his Zhang family would definitely disappear in smoke...
"Zhang Jun." Mr. Oida was a little unhappy. "That's where the Ming Dynasty was, and Suzhou is a big city of the Ming Dynasty. Even if there are not many Ming troops in Suzhou, it will be difficult for them to break through that city."
"I said earlier that the King of Wu in the city only had a child, so he believed me and brought his warriors to try to attack the city..."
"His posthumous title is here, that King Wu is no ordinary child at all..."
"Oita-san!" Zhang Li wanted to persuade him to stay, but Oideda firmly refused. Only by relying on their ability to come and go freely could the Japanese pirates gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Ming army. They were delayed there for nearly ten years.
God, it already made him feel very dangerous.
I wonder if Ming army reinforcements have blocked them there, what should they do?
While they were arguing, suddenly the sound of rumbling war drums came to their ears. A soldier who was rowing a boat from the front rolled up to the deck and reported to Zhang Li with a cry:
