"???cease?
With a slight sound, the lit fuse quickly faded in the firelight.
"Boo...hoo...boo..."
The tails of the ignited rockets continued to spray sparks into the air. Upon seeing this, the defenders on the city took a few steps back, using the cover of the parapet to avoid the flying rockets, so as not to be injured by the flying rockets.
Although the trajectory of these rockets was a bit messy, most of them passed over the city head and flew into the city. However, a few rockets lost their momentum and fell into the city wall road.
"Sir, this group of rebels has bullied people too much. I humbly request to go out and fight with them." Looking at the defenders on the city wall who kept retreating to avoid the incoming rockets, Lu Dahu seemed to be extremely angry and knelt down on one knee. He asked Chen Yiqi for help again.
"Dahu, I understand your bravery. But you also heard the military order just passed down from above. Just wait and see!" Chen Yiqi patted Lu Dahu who was kneeling on one knee and consoled him.
Chen Yiqi understood Lu Dahu's desire for military glory. This green battalion is no better than the flag soldiers. If they want to move up, it will be difficult to operate without real military merit.
In a big city like Jiangning Mansion, there are all kinds of people that you can't afford to offend, so it's useless to guard it by yourself. The resources that I dare to use are limited, so I can barely survive by myself. He, Lu Dahu, a green camp boss like Qian, only had people to look at the city gates and feed the horses, so it was really not worth mentioning.
If I had been a few years younger, I might have wanted to go down there and grab some military glory, but as a grandson over the years, I've become used to it, so it doesn't matter. But Lu Dahu is still young.
Jiangning Mansion has been peaceful for so many years, but now there is a wave of rebels and there are still so few people. How could this make Lu Dahu not moved?
If he could behead the rebels in front of so many people on the city, no matter how great his military achievements were, he would be able to share some of them!
Of course, if Lu Dahu can achieve military success, he will definitely be able to share some of it. If possible, I wouldn't want to stop him.
But…
"Damn it, these bannermen are really despicable and shameless. They stopped us from going out, but went out to grab military honors." Lu Dahu said, squeezing his head and hitting the female wall.
Chen Yiqi asked after hearing this. As expected, such a good thing would not be left to the Green Camp to snatch. About a hundred Eight Banners cavalry have gathered under the city gate and are putting on armor and preparing to leave the city.
At this moment, I heard a voice coming from under the city wall.
"People on the top of the city, listen, I am Yang Qiuchi, commander of the vanguard cavalry of the bandit suppression army. Millions of lions from our army will arrive in the near future. If you are wise, surrender as soon as possible to avoid bleeding like a river..."
"What an arrogant and arrogant guy. He dares to come here alone to shout. I really don't know how to write the word "death." Listening to the shouts under the city wall, Chen Yiqi couldn't help but read.
"Hey..."
Accompanied by a deep city gate call, the heavy city gate slowly opened. A group of cavalry jumped out of it.
"Company commander, the city gate has opened, and a group of Tatar cavalry came out. What to do?" a sentry in the bandit suppression army warned.
"I saw it." Yang Qiuchi replied: "It seems that they came out to bully us because they were thinking about us."
"Brothers, are you afraid?" Yang Qiuchi asked loudly.
"Not afraid..."
"Good job. But there is no need for us to waste time with them here. Everyone mounts up and prepares to evacuate." Yang Qiuchi ordered.
"Company Commander, are we leaving like this?" a voice in the team asked.
"Of course not. Just run back and let other people laugh at our cowardice. Don't you all brag about your marksmanship on weekdays? Give them a shot one at a time and then run away." Yang Qiuchi replied.
"Hey, company commander. I'm not bragging, I'll definitely be able to kill one of them in a while." Another soldier said teasingly.
"Second squad leader, don't just brag." Yang Qiuchi pointed at the speaker and replied.
"Company commander, just watch! Now wait for them to come." Second squad leader Dai Shen patted his chest and said.
"Okay, it depends on your performance." Yang Qiuchi nodded with satisfaction.
"Xiang Danyu, Zhang Dali. Have you buried the landmines that you were just asked to bury?" Yang Qiuchi looked at the other two people not far away and asked.
"Coming back to the company commander, they have been buried and marked. As long as the Tatar soldiers dare to follow, they will definitely not be as good as them." Zhang Dali replied with a military salute.
"Well, okay. You two will lead the way in a moment. Everyone must follow their route closely. You are absolutely not allowed to run around. Do you understand?" Yang Qiuchi ordered seriously.
"knew…"
After a neat reply, the sentry reported again: "Company commander, the Tatar cavalry is coming soon."
"Everyone load up and mount your horses. Xiang Danyu, Zhang Dali, you lead the way." Yang Qiuchi shouted.
"yes…"
Under Yang Qiuchi's instructions, the bandit suppressing troops present completed all the instructions very neatly.
The Eight Banners cavalry who came out had already entered the attack range of the Mini flintlocks.
"All are available, launch..."
"boom…"
Following the sound, an almost uniform volley of gunfire sounded. Several of the Eight Banners cavalry who were still concentrated in front of the city gate fell instantly, causing chaos in front.
After firing their guns, the cavalrymen of the bandit suppressing army showed no signs of sloppiness. They quickly turned their horses and ran back. The Eight Banners cavalry who had just left the city gate gritted their teeth.
"Sir, what should I do?" asked a team leader.
"You still have to ask? Chase." The assistant commander replied angrily, but then he quickly ordered: "But don't chase deeply, in case you are ambushed by the rebels."
"Understood, sir." the leader replied.
"Soldiers, come to me! Kill these rebels and everyone will receive a reward..."
"Kill..."
The Eight Banners cavalry who came out of the city gate used their legs to clamp down on the sitting horses and accelerated to charge out.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Dahu seemed to be in a good mood and was glad that he could not go out just now. If he had gone out, maybe the rebels would have killed him with the burst of gunfire just now. If he died like this, what would be the point of talking about military merit? "
"Sir, the rockets that the rebels just carried were carrying these papers. I don't know what they are written on. Can you take a look?" On the top of the city, soldiers from Lu Dahu's camp came over with some papers and gave them to him.
After hearing this, Lu Dahu took the paper handed over by his subordinates. Indeed, there were words written on these papers, but the words knew him, but he did not know the words!
Damn it, M, I would have known if I had read this book, it would be so infuriating.
"Huh? By the way, Lord Guard is here, isn't he! I don't understand, but you must understand." Lu Dahu suddenly thought of Chen Yiqi beside him. So he walked up to Chen Yiqi with the paper and said:
"Sir, the rebels just carried a note in the rocket. I don't know what it says. Can you take a look?"
