At such a short distance, the hit rate of Minnie bullets has greatly improved. Near the east gate of Lingshanwei, there was a rain of bullets. Almost every battlement was covered with scars and holes by Minnie bullets. People hiding behind the battlement could even feel the vibration caused by Minnie bullets when they hit the battlement. In such a shocking rain of bullets, if anyone touched his head, the outcome would be very miserable. Therefore, everyone was pressing against the battlement tightly and did not dare to expose any body parts.

"Bang bang bang!"

This is the sound of the Hu Ben gun.

"Puff puff puff!"

This is the sound of Minnie bomb hitting the city wall.

"Smack!"

This is the sound of Minnie bombs knocking the gravel from the battlements away.

Various sounds were mixed together, as if a storm was hanging across the Lingshan Acropolis. The defenders on the top of the city were suppressed by Minnie bullets so dared not look up. Anyone who looked up would definitely be killed. During the intensive shooting just now, many defenders had been knocked down to the ground, and blood kept flowing to the low-lying area, gradually forming pools of blood of all sizes.

Some of the defenders who were not afraid of death were extremely brave and stood up without fear, trying to use their courage to suppress the firepower of the other party. As a result, they were knocked over to the ground in a short time, and their bodies were bleeding. Some of them rushed forward and fell from the top of the city. There was only a puff sound, falling to the bottom of the city wall, without knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Dugu Lie and the others have found their respective sniper positions at a distance of thirty feet. The snipers in the guard team have expanded to ten people. Their targets are these desperate guys. The more fierce you are, the calmer I will shoot. If one of the enemies appears, they will destroy one, and see how many fierce enough you have!

"What kind of musket is this? So powerful?"

A commander squatted behind the battlements and shouted in shock.

The other Lingshan Guard officers were also bloodless. The sound of gunfire made them all frightened. Zhang Zhun didn't need artillery at all. The musket alone could make them unable to raise their heads. They couldn't even raise their heads, so how could they fight back? Whether it was archery or musket shooting, they had to stand up to do it. However, as soon as they stood up, they would immediately attract a pouring rain of bullets and beat themselves into a hornet's nest.

The four Florian cannons have become the targets of focus. Apart from the initial shooting, these cannons have no effect. Don’t you want to fire the cannon? OK, see if you have the chance to fire the cannon! The gunners didn’t dare to look up at all. Minnie bombs hit the cannon and made a ding-ding sound. Some Minnie bombs were knocked to one side by the gun barrel and turned into a jumper, which happened to hit the gunner next to them.

Yang Weiguo and others did not play any role when they were fighting against Hei Iron Head. Today, they were all holding back their energy and would never let the defenders' artillery have any chance to shoot. The artillery on the city was not like the artillery of a pirate ship. They only had very small artillery windows and could not move flexibly on the sea. As a result, they were effectively curbed. The original gunners were either killed or lying on the ground tightly and did not dare to move at all. Without the threat of artillery, the gunshots of the guards became even more dense. They were completely like entering a no-man!

Wang Jian comforted himself and said, "Don't worry, Zhang Zhun and the others can't get up to the city wall!"

This is also the only comfort for all of them.

Zhang Zhun and the others did not carry any siege weapons, or even bamboo ladders. Even if the defenders were so pressed that they could not raise their heads, you would not be able to fly to the top of the city. As long as the city gate was not broken, Zhang Zhun and the others could only shoot randomly outside the city. He could not continue fighting like this, right? At a certain time, he would naturally retreat.

When Zhang Zhun landed in Lingshan Guard, Wang Jian had sent cavalry to seek help as soon as possible. For safety reasons, Wang Jian asked for help from many parties at the same time. The nearby Laizhou Prefecture, Qingzhou Prefecture, Andong Prefecture, and Huai'an Prefecture were all targets of Wang Jian's request for help. Shandong Dusi of Jinan Prefecture and Prince Lu of Yanzhou Prefecture, Wang Jian also sent envoys. He was in a hurry to seek medical treatment, and Wang Jian didn't care whether he had the right to ask them for help.

Among so many targets for help, as long as one or two soldiers are sent to successfully collapse the crisis of Lingshan Acropolis. No matter how capable Zhang Zhun is, he can't stand the attack of many officers and soldiers, right? He is not Nezha with three heads and six arms, nor is he Sun Wukong full of monkey hair. As long as the rescuers arrive in time, Zhang Zhun's doomsday will come.

However, Wang Jian's self-comfort was quickly broken.

Suddenly, someone screamed: "Sir, it's not good, the enemy is rushing up."

Wang Jian was shocked and hurriedly hid behind the battlements, quietly revealing half of his eyes. As a result, he was shocked and angry and saw that among the floating white smoke, several soldiers of Zhang Zhun were carrying large jars and moving quickly towards the city gate. The outside of those jars were wrapped in thick quilts, and they didn't know what they were inside.

Wang Jian asked casually: "What is the jar?"

A commander casually said, "It's not gunpowder, is it?"

Wang Jian's face changed and he said in a disgusting voice: "Damn it! Hurry up, stop them!"

Although he was not interested in the musket, Wang Jian also knew what the consequences would be if so much gunpowder was detonated. Because of his poor management of gunpowder, the Ming army caused many accidents every year, killing and injuring a large group of people. The most terrifying accident was the explosion of a large gunpowder depot near Wang Gongchang during the Tianqi period. The entire capital shook three times, which was even worse than an earthquake. Thousands of houses collapsed and tens of thousands of people died. If such a large tank of gunpowder was placed at the city gate... Wang Jian would not dare to think about it.

The commanders and commanders were both bloodless, shocked and scared. The enemy carried the jar full of gunpowder, obviously to blow up the city gate. Damn, if the city gate was blown up, the situation would be irreversible. As soon as the enemy entered the city, the military households inside and outside the city would launch a riot. As long as tens of thousands of people participated in the riot, they would feel numb when they thought about it.

The situation has completely lost control.

"Shoot the arrow!"

"shot!"

"Stop them from getting closer!"

Wang Jian screamed in anger.

He kept scolding his servants and asked them to stand up and fight. He wanted to kill all the enemies who sent gunpowder to death at the city. With Wang Jian's constant scolding, his servants really wanted to stand up and prevent the black gunpowder from approaching. However, the guards did not give them a chance to stand up at all.

"Bang!"

The first servant just carefully appeared and was shot. His head was broken directly, blood and brain burst, red and white, flowing out together. Even Wang Jian was so heartless that he couldn't help but close his eyes and couldn't bear to look at it.

"puff!"

The second servant was quite brave and had very flexible movements. He wanted to poke his head out, shoot arrows at the fastest speed, and then squatted down immediately. As a result, he was knocked over as soon as he showed up. The bow and arrow in his hand didn't even have time to take action.

"bite!"

The situation of the third servant was even worse. The servant used a musket. He lay on the ground, loaded the gunpowder and the projectiles with difficulty, and then wanted to find an opportunity to shoot outside. As a result, his head was just raised and he was shot to death. The musket in his hand was inadvertently raised, and as a result, it immediately attracted a crazy rain of bullets. When the musket fell, the barrel had already been concave.

The other servants couldn't help but shrink their heads and no longer had the courage to stand up.

"Smash the stone!"

"Take a squat!"

There was no way, so Wang Jian had to change the way he fought back.

It should be better if you smash the stones and throw the mulberry trees downwards without exposing too much of your body. However, it is good to throw the stones and mulberry trees down. However, no one knows whether there is a hit or not, and no one sticks out his head to check. In front of the enemy's rain of bullets, even the lookout hole is quite dangerous.

Too cruel!

The enemy's musket is so ruthless!

Even if they stood up without fear of death, it would be useless! They were killed by the enemy's musket before they could shoot. What else would they talk about counterattack? Even if all of them were not afraid of death, they could only continue to die and could not control the development of the situation!

Wang Jian looked along the city wall and saw at least hundreds of servants falling down behind the battlements. Blood had formed streams and flowing through him. It was not that they were not brave, but that Zhang Zhun's musket was too fierce. Wang Jian had never seen such a fierce musket. No wonder he was beaten so badly in Xiahe City that day that day, even Wu Jie was beaten to death. Afterwards, Wu Jie's body was inspected, and he was shot, and it turned out to be fatal.

"Sir, please withdraw!"

"Sir, retreat! If the city gate is blown up, we will not even be able to retreat!"

There were two commanders and four commanders in Lingshan Guard. They realized that something was wrong, and six people asked Wang Jian to retreat one after another. Moreover, the speed of retreat was as fast as possible. As for whether he would be held accountable in this way, he could not care whether he would be held accountable. He had no life left, and he was still worried about whether he would be held accountable?

Several enemy jars are getting closer and closer to the city tower. I believe that they will be sent under their butts soon. Since the enemy cannot be stopped from approaching and will not retreat, continue to stay here. If the jar is detonated, everyone present will be bombed into the sky.

Wang Jian had no choice but to sigh helplessly and said with difficulty: "Get away!"

The commanders and commanders, and four thousand households, were immediately as if they were amnesty and shouted: "Retreat!"

The defenders on the top of the city hurriedly retreated along the stairs and flew out of the city like flying. The west gate and the north gate were quickly opened, and all the officers took their families and soft and retreated one after another under the escort of their servants. The military households in the city were still hiding at home without knowing what had happened. As a result, the streets were soon empty.

The gunshots on the top of the city suddenly became silent.

Ma Yi listened to the increasingly sparse gunfire and said half-believingly: "Sir, the defenders seem to... retreat."

Zhang Zhun nodded.

Wang Jian is a sloppy person. He saw that the opportunity was not good, so of course he quickly fled away.

In fact, this is what Zhang Zhun needs to do. If Wang Jian is still fighting in a trap, the guard may have to suffer greater casualties. If the other party really resists stubbornly, street fighting will also cost life. There is no need. If Wang Jian leaves, there will be no chance to come back in the future.

Liu Jixiang and his friends rode their war horses and soon came to Zhang Zhun to report what they saw. Wang Jian and others did escape along the direction of the west gate and the north gate. Now, the north gate and the west gate are both open. Yang Weiguo and the others have entered the city and are preparing to open the east gate.

Sure enough, not long after, amid the creaking sound, the east gate of Lingshan Acropolis was opened. After Yang Weiguo opened the east gate, he carefully looked at the large water tanks outside the door, thinking that if the explosives contained there were hundreds of kilograms of explosives, it would be amazing. For safety reasons, Yang Weiguo decided to cut off the lead first. However, after searching, he could not find the lead.

"What's going on?"

Yang Weiguo, who was full of suspicion, took the lid away in wonder.

"Ah? Sand!"

Looking at everything in the water tank, Yang Weiguo was completely stunned.

In the water tank, there was no gunpowder at all, but sand! He took off the lids of several other water tanks and suddenly found that all the water tanks were filled with sand! It was not a few hundred kilograms of gunpowder, but a few hundred kilograms of sand!

faint!

Yang Weiguo seemed to understand something vaguely, but he didn't understand anything.

Fortunately, Wang Jian did not see this scene, otherwise he would have vomited blood and died. Because he was scared away by the sand. In fact, Zhang Zhun had no extra gunpowder to make a big gift package, and all the water tanks were filled with sand. However, someone was smart enough to use it as gunpowder and ran away in a hurry.

"Weiguo, what are you looking at?"

While Yang Weiguo was in a daze, he suddenly heard Zhang Zhun's voice.

"Sir, this..."

Yang Weiguo wanted to speak but stopped.

Zhang Zhun smiled faintly and said calmly: "What do you think it is?"

Yang Weiguo said without hesitation: "Gunpowder!"

Zhang Zhun smiled, said nothing, and rode his horse into the city.

Yang Weiguo shook his head vigorously, and finally figured it out. He couldn't help but say to himself: "Gao! It's really high!"

Zhang Zhun heard the voice from behind and smiled bitterly. Gao, how about a big deal, do you think I want to do an empty city plan? But I really have no gunpowder, so I have to use this trick. Otherwise, letting Wang Jian make a local plane, wouldn’t it be a complete end to them? It would still be a problem for them to run away safely and easily?

Fortunately, Hao Linyong and the others have already caught up. Whether Wang Jian can catch him depends on his own escape ability. He gave up the strong acropolis and fought with the guards, which is equivalent to a sheep jumping out of the sheep pen and fighting with the jackals. He must have felt good.

"Sir, the military household of Lingshan Guard, welcome to the city."

Fang Yu excitedly rode his horse to Zhang Zhun and shouted loudly.

Lingshan Acropolis was taken down like this. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Fang Yu would really not believe it. Now he still couldn't understand why something suddenly became easier when it came to Zhang Zhun's hands? Wang Jian was such a fierce person. As long as the Lingshan Guard's military household knew it, he could only run away in shame in front of Zhang Zhun.

Behind Fang Yu, Lingshan Guards, who were mixed with horror and surprise, stood densely on both sides of the street to welcome Zhang Zhun. These military households felt a little like they were in a dream, and they still didn't understand what was going on. They were fighting so lively just now, but in less than half an hour, all the defenders in the city disappeared. Even the city gate was opened. Zhang Zhun, the legendary figure, appeared in front of them.

Zhang Zhun nodded and slowly rode his horse forward.
Chapter completed!
