()( ) Seeing that there were more and more enemies on the city and fewer and fewer brave soldiers on our side, Sentinel Yuan De looked miserable.
Yesterday, Zheng Zhilong's envoy entered the city and said that the general Cai Yifan and more than 3,000 soldiers had been killed by Huang Chen, and the entire army was wiped out. He advised Yuegang not to make unnecessary resistance, but to open the city and surrender as soon as possible. Because Yuegang was attacked by pirates
With a tight blockade and no news, the officials and people of Yuegang did not know whether the matter was true or false, but even if it was true, they would never surrender to the pirates, and there was no room for compromise between the two sides.
Today, Yuan De learned that his opponent was Huang Chen, who was said to have completely annihilated Cai Yifan's tribe. He was extremely vigilant. When the two sides actually fought, he immediately concluded that the words of Zheng Zhilong's envoy were 80% true. Huang Chen's thieves were
It is so powerful that the combat capability of a single soldier is not surprising, but if a dozen people gather in one place and charge in formation, many times the number of officers and soldiers will often be overwhelmed in one fell swoop.
Moreover, the opponent has an "unheard of" sharp weapon in his hand, which looks like a cannonball (cannonball). The thieves hold it in their hands and explode when thrown. Every time the officers and soldiers get together, the thieves will immediately throw a "bomb".
Exploding the officers and soldiers to pieces has no disadvantages. It can be said that this object is the culprit for the officers and soldiers falling into a precarious situation so quickly.
Several more familiar loud noises were heard. Yuan Deshun's voice suddenly changed, and he saw a mess behind the city gate. Countless people were lying on the ground, some were already dead, and some were still alive, covering their bodies with bloody flesh.
His body let out a miserable cry, and the uninjured people seemed to be frightened by the tragic situation around them, and stood there in a daze. Then a group of elite armored thieves rushed up with swords and guns, and instantly killed the remaining people and attacked the injured.
The player lasted a few seconds and tried to open the city gate.
"We can't let them open the city gate!" Yuan De shouted out loud. He soon discovered that sentry officer Cai Kun was leading dozens of people down the city. He thought he was going to stop him, but before Yuan De could breathe a sigh of relief, a scene that shocked him appeared.
Without even looking at the city gate, Cai Kun and his men quickly left the battlefield and disappeared on the streets of Yuegang.
Yuan De was stunned for a moment, only to feel that all the blood in his body rushed to the top of his head, giving him the illusion that his head was about to explode. He immediately led people to the city gate, but it was a pity that Cai Kun was so delayed that it was too late.
Looking at the slowly opening city gate, Yuan De stood there in a daze, crying without tears.
"Sentinel..." a captain said cautiously.
Yuan De gritted his teeth and said: "Withdraw! We can't hold the city gate any longer. Tell all the people above to withdraw. We will fight the bandits in the streets!"
"yes."
Yuan De took one last look at the city gate and retreated resolutely to the depths of the street.
"The city gate is opened, the city gate is opened... the city is broken... the city is broken..."
There was a burst of cheers from above and below the city, and everyone was jumping for joy. Huang Chen saw it in his eyes, and smiled slightly on his face. Seeing Meng Lao, Wu Qi Lao and others all looked impatient, Huang Chen said lightly: "I have already talked to you beforehand.
All the leaders have said: I, Huang Chen, have rules, not many, just two: no killing innocent people indiscriminately, no rape of women. Since you are acting together with me, of course you must abide by my rules."
Baoshan and Yinhai were in front, and Shang Meng Lao, Wu Qi Lao and others were all very anxious. They wanted to pounce on them immediately and plunder them, but they didn't care what Huang Chen said. They were afraid that Huang Chen would ask them to die, so they would keep nodding their heads.
Not a word at all.
Huang Chen immediately darkened his face and said with murderous intent: "I will tell you the ugly story first. Then I will organize a law enforcement team to patrol the streets. Anyone who dares to violate the rules I have set will be killed. I will kill one person I see and two people I see."
A pair, including you."
Huang Chen's murderous intention made Meng Lao, Wu Qi Lao and others wake up one after another, with a chill on their necks. For the sake of their own lives, they said: "Don't worry, Mr. Huang, we will definitely keep it in mind."
"I hope so." Huang Chen said calmly. "Let's set off."
"Master Huang invites you first, Master Huang invites you first." Mr. Shang Meng, Mr. Wu Qi and others said quite sensibly.
Huang Chen nodded and said nothing more. He led Zhao Hongyi, William and others to ride towards the city gate. When they arrived, all the officers and soldiers had retreated, and the surrounding area was under control. Several of his subordinates stood at the city gate to welcome Huang Chen's arrival.
.
Huang Chen glanced over and asked with a smile: "Breaking the city gate so quickly gave me a big surprise. Who broke the city gate?"
Lin Xishan stepped out and clasped his fists and replied: "It's me, the big leader. But I am not the only one responsible for this. Brother Ruan helped me a lot. Without him, I might not have been able to capture the city gate so quickly."
Ruan Jin waved his hand and said: "I just helped a little bit, it's not worth mentioning, it doesn't count as much credit."
Lin Xishan couldn't help but said seriously: "Brother Ruan, why do you have to be so modest?"
Huang Chen looked at the two of them and smiled and said: "Okay, you two, stop arguing. Xi Shan has the first credit, and Brother Ruan has the second credit." There are only two of Huang Chen's subordinates who don't call them by their first names, and one is Zhao Hongyi.
, one is called "Brother Zhao", one is Ruan Jin, and the other is called "Brother Ruan", the two of them are Huang Chen's right-hand men, and they enjoy a very special status in the team.
Lin Xishan sighed and said: "The big leader got something called a "grenade" from Xiyi. It was so powerful that it blew up the officers and soldiers in a few blows."
Ruan Jin and others believed this: "The capture of the city depends on the power of this thing."
Huang Chen smiled. He not only bought armor, firearms, and artillery from the Chicken Coop Spaniards, but also dozens of barrels of gunpowder and more than two hundred grenades. The grenades of this era were not light, and their explosive effect was not very good.
, to be honest, the effect when used on land is average. It was originally intended to be used on a ship, but unexpectedly it had a miraculous effect during the siege.
Huang Chen was afraid of being shot in the dark, so he rolled down, led the horse into Yuegang City, glanced at the messy and peaceful streets, and said to his men: "The city gate was lost suddenly, but the opponent's strength is still there.
There will be another street fight soon, and the intensity may be even higher than that of the city siege. I would like to warn the people below not to be dazzled by money, lest they lose their lives."
"yes."
As expected, everyone encountered a lot of trouble as they advanced. The officers, soldiers, warriors, and merchants and private soldiers took advantage of the geographical location to block the pirates' advance. They were familiar with every corner and were at home in the narrow, twisty, and complex lanes. In this kind of terrain,
, Huang Chen's fire gun soldiers were weakened to the extreme, and it was difficult for the spearmen to line up and charge, but the combat power of the sword players was not greatly affected.
The main force in street fighting is no longer the officers and soldiers, but the private soldiers of the merchants. Firstly, the fall of the city gate has greatly weakened the fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers. The private soldiers of the merchants fight to the death to protect the interests of their masters. Secondly, the private soldiers of the merchants cannot
He is good at fighting in formations, but has excellent martial arts. When defending the city, he is not showy, and when fighting in the street, everyone is a hero.
Those who are proficient in handling firearms can hide in the dark and hit them accurately.
Huang Chen had no choice but to use a step-by-step method to push forward inch by inch. When encountering difficult-to-solve areas, in order to avoid casualties, he would use grenades to blow up the enemies to death or blow them out and surround them. Huang Chen
The stock of grenades in your hand is depleted very quickly.
Shang Meng Lao, Wu Qi Lao and others were greedy for the treasures in the shop. They were not as cautious as Huang Chen, and they did not have weapons such as grenades. As can be imagined, the number of casualties soon exceeded 30%. It is no exaggeration to say that,
Every step they take is paved with the corpses of their companions.
Perhaps Huang Chen's invasion of Yuegang triggered a chain reaction. Zheng Zhilong, Li Kuiqi, and Zhou Lao, who had been in a stalemate, broke into the city one after another, kicking off a full-scale street battle.
More than an hour later, Huang Chen's troops successfully wiped out most of the Xicheng District. At this time, the sun dropped into the sea level. The sky gradually became hazy, and once it was dragged into the night, the situation would be even more difficult. Huang Chen could no longer hold back and give
His subordinates issued a death order to completely resolve the battle before dark.
With Huang Chen's order, the progress was greatly accelerated, but the number of casualties also increased sharply. You can never have your cake and eat it too.
In order to complete Huang Chen's mission, the leaders of the several brigades worked hard and personally led the charge to the front. Ruan Jin, Zhuang Mo, and Lin Xishan, the three who rushed the most fiercely, were injured one after another. Fortunately, they only suffered flesh injuries, and finally arrived in time.
Clear out the enemies before dark.
Xicheng District became the target. Huang Chen immediately divided his troops into Beicheng District. Beicheng District was the territory of his enemy Zhou Lao. He didn't have to worry about anything. He had sent some people there to fight against the autumn wind before. Now that the war in Xicheng District has calmed down, he is even more worried.
He led a large group of troops northward to snatch the spoils that originally belonged to Mr. Zhou Zhou. He said in a good name: Seeing the stalemate between allies and enemies, I came here to help.
Even Huang Chen himself might not believe this, but it doesn't matter whether he believes it or not, all he needs is an excuse.
Stepping into Beicheng District, Huang Chen's people marched forward hand in hand, and they frantically swept away all the goods they could see. As they went deeper, they inevitably ran into Mr. Zhou and other leaders. Huang Chen had already planned it beforehand.
He ordered not to take the lead in launching an attack. He only said that he was here to help the alliance leader when asked, and ignored everything else. If the other party dared to attack, he could use his hands or feet, whatever he wanted, as long as no one was killed. Soon there would be outbreaks in several places.
There was a small-scale conflict, but Huang Chen didn't have any problems along the way. Firstly, he was personally in charge, and secondly, he led many soldiers, so no one dared to provoke him.
Mr. Zhou Zhou's behavior is the most corrupt in the Pirate Alliance. He burns, kills and loots every day, and does all kinds of evil. Not to mention Huang Chen can't stand him, Zheng Zhilong also has great opinions on him. Beicheng District falls into this category.
Hands, the tragedy is unbearable to witness.
Yang Dong twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Hit his mother! What a sin! I, Yang Dong, never think of myself as a good person, but compared with this old dog Wednesday, I am simply the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva."
William was so angry that he could not help but tremble. When he saw a four or five-year-old boy dying tragically in the road, and a disheveled woman beside him, the anger accumulated in his heart finally burst out: "Damn it! Damn it! Dog!"
Shit! These dirty, despicable, shameless pirates who deserve to go to hell! How could they treat a child like this? How could they?!"
Huang Chen's face was particularly gloomy, and he was about to speak when a beautiful young woman who was pregnant suddenly ran out of an alley not far ahead. When she saw Huang Chen's team slowly approaching, she felt as if she had lost her soul.
, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Huang Chen couldn't help but was startled. Before he could react, a man walked out with a knife. He was covered in blood and obviously suffered serious injuries. A dozen pirates rushed out of the dark alley with him and surrounded him.
He was chopping and chopping, but he didn't pay attention to Huang Chen for a moment.
The life-and-death fight between the two sides was extremely brutal. The man with the knife was extremely brave and good at fighting. He chopped down three people in a few moves. He rushed out of the encirclement and saw the beautiful young woman lying on the road. He couldn't help but
He shouted: "Why are you still dawdling? Let's go!"
The beautiful young woman had been frightened by Huang Chen's team. She sat on the ground and shook her head with tears in her eyes.
Only then did the pirates and sword-wielding men notice Huang Chen's men. Especially the former, someone recognized Huang Chen and secretly warned them not to move without permission.
One moment it was a fight of life and death, but the next moment it was dead silence, and the atmosphere was quite strange.
Huang Chen rode up to him on a tall horse, pointed his riding whip at one of the pirates, and said, "Aren't you that nicknamed... by Lin Qi's men? What's your name?"
"Back to Master Huang, I nicknamed Gun Jianglong." Gun Jianglong, who was also unruly in front of Lin Qilao, was extremely careful when facing Huang Chen, for fear of angering this gentleman.
Gun Jianglong is the right-hand man of his enemy Lin Qilao, how could he not know about it and deliberately pretend not to know. Huang Chen slapped his forehead and said: "Yes, it's called Gun Jianglong. I also remember someone with the same name as you, Chen Jiao."
Jing’s.”
Gun Jianglong was speechless and thought to himself: "Didn't Chen Jiaojing be killed by you?"
Huang Chen pointed his riding whip at the beautiful young woman and the knife-wielding man, and asked, "What's going on?"
"..." Gunjianglong was speechless and couldn't answer. After all, leading people to hunt down pregnant women and young men was not a glorious thing.
Only then did Huang Chen realize that the face of the man holding the knife was very young, even younger than him. He was only similar to Zhang Ruozhong and Zhang Yunlong. Huang Chen couldn't help being shocked. This kid's martial arts skills were much better than him. Could it be that he started in the womb?
Have you practiced martial arts yet? A love for talent suddenly arose in his heart, and Huang Chen asked him gently: "What is your name, how old are you? What is your relationship with her?"
"My dear, Gan Hui, is about to turn seventeen. She and I have never met each other before. I just couldn't stand what they were doing, so I helped her." Gan Hui heard something fishy from the brief conversation between Huang Chen and Gun Jianglong, and knew that
The two of them were not in the same group, he replied calmly. Gan Hui was a servant in Dongyuan Village, Haicheng. His parents died early, and his family was impoverished. He was lonely and helpless since he was a child. This made him good at martial arts, a man of justice and a chivalrous man, and he liked to fight against injustice.
, thus offending many wealthy families, and being persecuted many times by the village chiefs, he had no place to stand in his hometown. Not long ago, he left his hometown and came to Yuegang to work hard for a living.
"We don't know each other?" Huang Chen was stunned for a while. He had previously speculated that the two of them were either siblings, husband and wife, or master and servant, but he never thought that the two of them were strangers. Who would risk their lives for someone they didn't know?
It just happened that he met such a weirdo.
"Is this kid out of his mind?" Huang Chen looked at Gan Hui with strange eyes. (To be continued...)
