"Brothers, we..."
"boom!"
Wu Guogui outside the city gate was about to take the opportunity to make a fuss, but was almost hit by a fire cannon and hurriedly retreated.
Wang Shoulin glanced at Wu Guogui with contempt and shouted loudly: "Brothers, Wu Guogui has rebelled. Whoever can take his head will be promoted to the third level immediately and rewarded with ten taels of silver!"
"Anyone who follows Lord Wang and kills the enemy will be rewarded with two taels of silver. If he kills a Jurchen, he will be rewarded with another one tael of silver..."
As Wang Shoulin's voice sounded, all the soldiers stopped, and some even looked ashamed.
It turned out that although Wang Fuzhi had not been in Shanhaiguan for a long time, he had been eating and living with the soldiers and was quite popular.
In addition, he was kind-hearted and considerate of the soldiers. He took great care of everyone. Whether they were Ma Jinzhong's soldiers or the local warriors of Shanhaiguan, he could treat them all equally.
He even killed a powerful man in the pass for an ordinary country hero, and won the favor of many country heroes.
When Ma Jinzhong's soldiers and horses were walking together, many people admired him. Especially after he subdued Zhu Chenggong without any blood last time, even more people admired him.
After the two groups merged, they often talked about it. The Liao people worshiped heroes, so Wang Fuzhi had high prestige in the army and had many followers.
When everyone saw Wang Euzhi rushing towards the Jurchens first, many people wanted to follow him, but they did not act because they were afraid of the Jurchens' power.
At this moment, they saw the dark muzzle of the gun behind Wang Shoulin, and they thought about getting money for killing the enemy, and their thoughts became a lot more vivid.
At this time, I don’t know who shouted “Kill Wu Guogui” first, and everyone responded one after another.
Wu Guogui had been wary of this before, but when he saw that the situation was not right, he immediately fled on horseback.
But although he ran fast, he suffered a lot from the three hundred Guan Ning cavalry, and nearly half of them were killed in the blink of an eye.
Then most of the soldiers rushed out of the city, and the remaining half looked reluctantly into the city. Seeing that Wang Shoulin seemed to be waving, they hurriedly turned around and rushed out of the city.
But their pace was not fast, like old ladies with bound feet.
There are still many people wandering around the city gate, ready to take refuge in the city at any time.
When Wang Shoulin saw that everyone had turned around and left the city, he felt a little relieved, and at the same time he felt a cold feeling on his back.
He calmed down and was about to order everyone to move away the Buddha's machine and other objects so that he could close the east gate of the town.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Dabiao brought Zhu Yuanzhang's order, instructing him not to close the city gate and clean up everything. He only had to pretend to carry it and take the opportunity to bury some gunpowder.
Wang Shoulin was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why the infantry rushed out of the city gate earlier.
After he bowed in agreement, he ordered his cronies to act according to Zhu Yuanzhang's will.
Just as Wang Shoulin was laying out the gunpowder, Wang Fuzhi outside the pass had already engaged the incoming cavalry.
But what surprised him was that half of the four to five thousand cavalry were Guan Ning's cavalry.
When Wang Euzhi saw this, he was furious. The spear in his hand danced like a dragon, and there was a cry of mourning everywhere he went.
It's just that although he is brave, the combat power of other soldiers is far inferior to Guan Ning and the Jurchen cavalry, so even though he leads the army, they are gradually losing ground.
Seeing this situation, Wang Euzhi knew that if he continued to fight like this, his entire army would be destroyed.
So after killing a few people with all his strength, he rushed towards a Han general in front.
The Han general was Wu Sangui's confidant Xia Longshan. Although he had defected to the Jurchens, he was still a little uneasy about attacking the old city because he still had relatives in the city, so he did not go forward to kill them.
At this moment, when he saw Wang Euzhi riding his horse, he felt angry in his heart, and he also rode up to meet him.
"Qiang!"
As soon as the two of them fought, Xia Longshan was so shocked that his blood surged, and he almost lost the sword in his hand.
He was about to take advantage of the horse driving opportunity to adjust, but he didn't expect Wang Fuzhi to come and kill him again.
Seeing this, Xia Longshan had no choice but to fight.
Unexpectedly, Wang Fuzhi made a false move, causing his full-strength blow to miss.
Just when he secretly screamed, he felt another strong force coming from the long knife, and then flew out uncontrollably.
Xia Longshan was already a little panicked. Now that he had lost his weapon, he no longer dared to fight Wang Euzhi and hurriedly fled on horseback.
Wang Fuzhi was angry, and he wanted to capture him and weaken Guan Ning's cavalry, so he would not let him go easily.
Just when Xia Longshan was anxious, he suddenly heard a rough voice saying: "Brother Xia, don't worry, wait for me to help you!"
Xia Longshan heard the sound and went to see Hu Xinshui riding his horse, so he hurriedly turned the horse's head and ran towards Hu Xinshui.
Seeing that Wang Fuzhi was unable to catch up, he danced with a spear, changed his gestures, and then threw the spear towards Xia Longshan.
"ah!"
With a scream, Xia Longshan's armor was pierced by a spear, and he fell off his horse and died.
When Hu Xinshui saw this, he roared and rushed towards Wang Fuzhi with murderous intent.
Although Wang Fuzhi lost his spear, he was not afraid. He drew out the sword from his waist and rushed forward quickly.
It's just that although he is brave, he has consumed a lot of energy due to the previous battle. In addition, Hu Xinshui is much stronger than Xia Longshan, and his long weapons also have a lot of advantages, so Wang Fu's battle is quite difficult.
At this moment, Yang Qi finally broke through the blockade and came to Wang Fuzhi's side.
Wang Fuzhi took advantage of Yang Qi's obstruction, took back his spear, and immediately rushed towards Hu Xinshui like a tiger down the mountain.
Hu Xinshui's previous battle with Wang Fuzhi was only evenly matched, but now Wang Fuzhi had a spear in his hand, making him hurriedly killed. In addition, Yang Qi took advantage of the opportunity to pass the knife to him, making him even more embarrassed.
Hu Xinshui fought hard for once, but did not dare to fight again.
After making a feint, he prepared to retreat.
But Wang Fuzhi had already seen his intention. When he retreated, he kicked off the saddle with both feet, and his whole body flew up like a roc, and his spear pierced Hu Xinshui's back vest.
"puff!"
"when!"
Just when Wang Fuzhi's spear pierced Hu Xinshui's armor, a long knife cut off the barrel of his spear.
Wang Fuzhi took advantage of the situation and rolled over, then jumped on the horse that had just arrived and looked at the person coming.
The person who came had a ferocious face and a huge waist and abdomen. He turned out to be Azige, Duduo's brother.
When Wang Fuzhi saw Azig, he was not surprised but overjoyed. He danced towards Azig with his spear that had lost its tip.
Zhu Yuanzhang on the city wall saw Wang Fuzhi's bravery through the telescope, and he felt even more happy.
In order to prevent Wang Euzhi from making mistakes, and seeing that Wang Shoulin at the bottom of the city had made arrangements, he asked a dead tiger soldier next to him to pass the order to Wang Euzhi to temporarily stay away.
At the same time, a decree was sent to Wang Shoulin, asking him to let the soldiers into the city without leaving any trace.
After a while, several tiger warriors killed Wang Fuzhi.
Soon afterwards, Wang Euzhi was seen leading the crowd to kill more fiercely.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he was stunned for a moment, then understood what the other person was thinking and recognized him even more.
As Wang Fuzhi broke through, Guan Ning and the Jurchen cavalry came towards the east gate of the town like wolves and tigers.
At the same time, with Wang Shoulin's tacit approval, all the soldiers fled towards the pass.
After a while, hundreds of Jurchen cavalry rushed in.
Seeing that Duduo and others had not entered the city, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Wang Shoulin to launch a counterattack and drove out some Jurchen cavalry.
Seeing this, Duduo and Azig commanded their troops to charge, and the two of them slowly advanced towards the east gate of the town.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smile.
Suddenly, a more violent sound of artillery fire came from the east.
