Zhu Cilang jumped out of the carriage, and his boots fell on the muddy ground, splashing water.

Zhu Cilang looked up at the sky. Although it was still covered with dark clouds, the rain had obviously become much smaller.

This is obviously not good news for the Ming Dynasty official army defending the city.

Wang Chengen had already surrounded him with his followers.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the enemy is sieging the city, so don't go up." Wang Chengen said sincerely, with obvious concern in his expression.

Standing here, there was only a city wall between the enemy outside, and you could clearly hear the shouts of killing from outside the city wall.

On the ground not far away, several arrows were inserted crookedly, obviously from the work of the rebels outside the city.

Zhu Cilang laughed: "It's all here. Do I have any idea of ​​regressing? Let's go."

I didn’t sign in here, which means I have to go to the city.

Zhu Cilang was stopped just after taking two steps.

An officer, with several soldiers, said expressionlessly: "The Admiral and the Eunuch have a order that no one can go to the city except His Majesty's will."

Wang Chengen behind him quickly spoke and shouted, "You are blind. This is the prince's prince, so he won't let go!"

After hearing this, Zhu Cilang's mood was a little subtle.

When Wang Chengen said this, why did he feel that this palace has become a villain who bullies others by virtue?

Forget it, don't care about these details.

Zhu Cilang's expression was gentle and said to the officer in front of him: "I want to go up and take a look. You should get out of here. My father is also aware of it, but the matter is urgent and he has not obtained the will of His Majesty."

The officer hesitated for a moment and obviously retreated a little, but insisted: "Your Highness, please go to the city after you get the order!"

At this moment, suddenly there was a loud noise on the city wall, followed by a burst of exclamation.

"Castballs! They are the cannons of the thief army!"

"Hide!"

Zhu Cilang subconsciously looked up and happened to find a stream of smoke rising into the sky, and many stone fragments fell from the sky.

Zhu Cilang was a little anxious and said coldly: "Get out of the way!"

The officer said: "Crown Prince, no!"

Wang Chengen suddenly spoke: "You are the nephew of Eunuch Cao's family? Go and tell Eunuch Cao, just say that I, Wang Chengen and the Crown Prince are here, and Eunuch Cao will naturally let His Highness go up."

Zhu Cilang looked at the officer in front of him and then realized.

It turns out that it is Cao Huachun's man.

Then it will be easy.

Just thinking about it is obvious that this guy must have a share in Cao Huachun's great cause of surrender in the city.

so……

Zhu Cilang pulled out his gun directly.

With a bang, the helmet above the officer's head fell to the ground.

The officer screamed and staggered back, his face as if he was earthy.

Zhu Cixuan blew the gun and said lightly: "Do you think if I kill a guy like you, Cao Huachun and my father will hold me accountable?"

After saying this, Zhu Cilang strode directly towards the city wall.

The officer stood on both legs and did not dare to say another word.

Zhu Cilang quickly stepped onto the city wall, and the sound of the system sounded as soon as he stepped onto the city wall.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in, obtaining one AWM sniper rifle and twenty bullets, obtaining S-level sniper rifle firing skills, and A-level artillery skills. The sign-in mission is started: Please help the Ming official army repel the attack of the rebel army."

Zhu Cilang felt a little relieved and began to look around. When he saw the situation in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath.

Above the city walls, hundreds of officials and soldiers guards, some holding muskets, some holding bows and arrows, and some holding swords.

A sound of footsteps sounded, and Wang Chengen and others followed.

Zhu Cixuan turned his head to look at Wang Chengen and said coldly: "Why are there so few people?"

You must know that there must be at least hundreds or thousands of people in this section of the city wall. What’s the use of these hundreds of people?

Wang Chengen's face turned red and he couldn't speak.

Now that Li Zicheng's troops are at the city, everyone in the capital is in danger. Sixty or seventy percent of the officers and soldiers in the capital camp are missing. Where did people come from to defend the city?

Zhu Cixuan asked again: "Where is Cao Huachun? Isn't he responsible for the guards of Changhua Sect? Why don't he supervise the battle here?"

Wang Chengen was still speechless.

Zhu Cilang's heart suddenly became angry.

Look at the people in front of you, they were dressed in disheveled, without any command or organization, and they hid behind battlements, fearing that they were shot by the archers and cannons of the rebels.

The most insulting thing is that these are already warriors who are truly willing to take their lives to defend the capital!

Suddenly, someone shouted again: "The rebel army has started to attack the city again!"

Zhu Cilang looked up and found that hundreds of rebels were shouting outside the city, holding ladders and pushing siege cars.

In the center of these rebel troops, a large banner with the word "Liu" is quite conspicuous.

"Liu? Who is that?" Zhu Cixuan frowned slightly, and soon thought of a name: "Liu Zongmin?"

Liu Zongmin is the number one general under Li Zicheng and is also the murderous devil.

But now it is not the time to care about this. The rebel army obviously plans to really attack the city. It can only be said that Zhu Cixuan is just right.

At this moment, Zhu Cixuan suddenly heard a conversation between two official soldiers who were taking a few steps in front of him.

"Boss Li, let's run away too, there's no one left here."

"Run? Where to go?"

"We will run wherever others run. Let's hide with our wife when we go home. There is no one in this place, so how can we guard it!"

Zhu Cixuan snorted heavily and said coldly: "Why run away? Don't worry, the rebel army cannot attack."

One of the soldiers glanced at Zhu Ciyang and asked in confusion: "Who are you?"

Zhu Cixuan glanced at Wang Chengen, and Wang Chengen immediately understood and said loudly: "Everyone, our Prince's Palace is down from the Ming Dynasty! Everyone fight well and fight back all the rebels. Your Highness and Your Majesty will naturally be rewarded!"

When Wang Chengen shouted, all the nearby officials and soldiers turned around and looked at Zhu Cilang, with obvious surprise in their expressions.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

"The prince actually came here?"

Zhu Cilang took a deep breath and said loudly: "I am the Prince of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Cilang. You are all warriors of our Ming Dynasty. As long as you guard the city well, I and my father will naturally have a lot of rewards, and promotion and wealth are no problem!"

Perhaps it was Zhu Cilang's identity that played a role, or perhaps it was Zhu Cilang's promise to get promoted and make a fortune, and in short, although the Ming army on the city walls were still scattered, their morale seemed to be a little better.

It's just that little.

Zhu Cilang waved his hand and said loudly: "The enemy is here, please follow me to fight!"

Above the battlements, many officials and soldiers began to poke out one after another, shoot arrows carefully and shoot.

But these people were sparse and the damage they caused to the crusade army was like drizzle. What's the use?

Looking at the tide under the city, which was as morale as the rainbow, and looking at the two or three kittens on the city wall, Zhu Cilang was in a complicated mood.

Has the Ming Dynasty actually reached this point?

Fortunately, I am still there!

Zhu Ciyang was about to take out his sniper rifle and find several generals of the trespassing army to play with him when he suddenly heard Wang Chengen's voice coming from beside him: "Come on, help me fire!"

Zhu Cilang turned around and found that Wang Chengen was struggling to carry a cannonball.

Zhu Cilang came to his senses and found that there were cannons on the city wall.

Zhu Cilang strode to the cannon. This was a cannon from Portugal. The barrel was long and the tube wall was very thick. There were cylindrical gun ears on both sides of the center of gravity of the cannon body, with sightseeing sights and gates, 3 meters long, with a diameter of 110-130 mm, and a weight of more than 2 tons.

This is the famous red cannon from Portugal, which is said to have bombed Nurhaci's life in one shot!

This is a weapon of war, but no one is using it on the city wall at this moment, only Wang Chengen thought of this.

Zhu Cixuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I'll do it! You guys load it!"

Then, Zhu Cixuan began to skillfully operate the sightseeing and the gate, and began to make orders.

"Put less gunpowder, right!"

"Okay, start lighting!"

"Be careful, it's about to launch!"

With a loud bang, the shells instantly shot out from the barrel, landed in the original charge formation of the rebel army with huge kinetic energy, and instantly sent more than a dozen rebel army to the Hall of Hell.

Seeing this scene, everyone on the city wall cheered.

Zhu Cilang's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Don't stop, continue to load!"

He could see clearly that there were dozens of shells next to the cannon.

Wang Chengen wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Zhu Ciyang in surprise: "Your Highness can still shoot/cannon?"
Chapter completed!
