"Kill!..."
Following Zhang Rui's order, the army rushed out with shouts, rushing towards the Nanjing city wall like a flood discharge.
There is still thick smoke billowing on the Nanjing City Wall Road, but except for some ignited wood, the open flames lit by oil on the city wall have basically been slowly extinguished.
The echelon carriers who were rushing in front were carrying long ladders and rushing desperately to the edge of the city wall. The defenders on the top of the city still did not appear.
Perhaps it was because the "air force" of the previous anti-bandit army "bombed" the city of Nanjing too harshly. So much so that the defenders were still in fear and did not notice that the bandit suppressing troops were already climbing the city wall.
"Attention, the rebels are about to attack. Come out and defend quickly..." the sentry in the Jiao Tower shouted in warning.
"Quick, come out with me to defend. The rebels are coming to the top of the city... Come out with me." Amuniptas Wangtuoba, the city wall guard, pulled out the saber from his waist and shouted.
At this moment, Amuniptas Wangtuoba did not care about the billowing smoke still rising from the city head, and ran out of the tower quickly.
The defensive materials originally prepared on the top of the city became a mess after being attacked by the bandit suppressing army from the air. Although the stones and bricks have not changed much, there are no defenders in the city wall at this time.
Except for the people who had just come out of the burnt building, there were only some charred dead bodies in the city road at this moment. Many of the dead bodies were still covered in flames and smoke that had not receded.
The hell-like miserable situation makes people feel chills running down their spines.
There was a roar like an angry beast under the city wall, but it was eerily quiet in the city road.
"Ugh... ugh..."
Several defenders who rushed to the city finally couldn't bear the disgusting sight, especially when stimulated by the smell of burnt corpses. The contents of his stomach poured out, and he squatted on the ground and vomited violently.
At this moment, stimulated by the various smells of feces, urine, corpses, and some vomit on the city road, the number of people vomiting is still increasing.
Nanjing City has an urn city inside. The foundation of the urn city?
The cave for hiding soldiers is so big that it can hide two thousand soldiers.
Although the battle was extremely brutal after the city was attacked by the "Air Force" of the bandit-suppressing army, the strength of the troops in the Tibetan Soldier Cave was not affected at all. At this time, the only remaining troops in the entire city wall that could still fight were all here.
These forces are also the most important forces of the Manchu Qing garrison at present. If they can hold the city head and wait for reinforcements to arrive, then the bandit suppressing army may be driven off the city head this time, and the siege will be in vain. But if they cannot hold on, the outer city of Jiangning Mansion may be completely occupied by the bandit suppressing army.
…
The blazing fire on top of the city caused the temperature in the Tibetan Soldier Cave to continue to rise. The stench carried by the thick smoke made many soldiers want to vomit out the food they had eaten last night.
Outside the city, shouts echoed across the sky and the earth, getting closer and closer.
"You all listen carefully. Lord Amuniputas Wangtuoba has given an order for all of you to go to the top of the city to defend yourself immediately. No mistakes will be made. Violators will be punished according to military law." The Eight Banners Commander received the order. Loudly mobilized.
At this time, the Green Camp soldiers who had been hiding in the Tibetan Soldier Cave and listened to the bombing and screams above the city for a long time were unable to react and were still looking at each other.
"Hurry up, get me up there as fast as possible. The rebels are coming to the city. Do you all want to die?..." Looking at the green camp soldiers who still didn't move, Atura Mo. Yan Tu Ren He kept shouting and cursing.
At this time, the Green Camp soldiers still looked like they wanted to move but didn't want to move, dawdling there. When the few Eight Banners soldiers saw this, they had no choice but to stop and watch the development of the matter.
After all, with their hundreds of Eight Banners soldiers, even if the heavenly soldiers descended to earth, they could not stop the attack of the short-haired thieves. They could only wait for the green camp soldiers to act together.
After Atullam Yantu's voice, the army still stood there without moving. At this time, several more green camp guards joined in the shouting and cursing, urging the green camp soldiers to go to the top of the city.
However, how many of the Green Camp soldiers at this moment are willing to go up and die?
After all, the deafening explosion and the miserable cry that I just heard in the Tibetan Soldier Cave are true. So many defenders on the city were unable to block the attack of the short-haired thieves. How could such a small number of people like myself be able to stop them? What happened? It's just to go up and give more heads to the short-haired thieves.
However, the military order was issued. No way!
Let’s wait! See if you can avoid it!
…
Therefore, everyone is planning their own little calculations in their minds. It is best if the superior officials can realize something and not do anything like slapping an egg against a stone and commanding everyone to die.
As for the Eight Banners soldiers. The salary they received was already high, but now they still receive double ring. None of them made any moves, so what could I do if I was still acting blindly?
"Qiang..."
There was a crisp sound of a sword being unsheathed. I saw Atula Mo Yantu pointing his waist knife at one of the people in the crowd and shouting: "Chen Yiqi, if you don't take your people, go immediately. Do you want to disobey the military order?"
At this moment, Green Camp guard Chen Yiqi rushed out and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, absolutely don't dare."
After saying that, Chen Yiqi turned his head and nodded to Lu Dahu, who was not far beside him, and then made a chopping gesture with his hands.
After reading it, Lu Dahu nodded. Then he said loudly to the Green Camp soldiers following him: "Are you all ready?"
"yes…"
"Then follow me and kill the enemy..." Lu Dahu pulled out his waist knife, shouted and walked towards the exit where Atura Mo Yantu was.
Seeing their high morale, Atura Mo Yantu nodded with satisfaction and casually inserted the saber in his hand into the scabbard.
"The Han people just can't do it. I thought they could be so united. I have to be the one to scare the monkeys! Unexpectedly, I still can't win, Han people..." Even though the shouts outside were completely close to the city wall, But Atullamo Yantu was still mumbling to himself in a good mood.
"puff…"
There was the sound of a knife piercing flesh.
"Well…"
The intense pain suddenly occupied Atura Mo Yantu's brain, causing him to make a sound involuntarily.
"This is...?" Atura Mo Yantu, who came back from being filled with pride, looked at the dagger inserted into his body in disbelief. The person who intervened was Lu Dahu, who was preparing to defend the city in response to the military order.
He didn't notice when Lu Dahu had an extra dagger. He saw Lu Dahu quickly pull out the dagger and take a few steps back. Everyone was shocked by this sudden scene.
"You...cough...what do you mean?" After the dagger was pulled out, Atura Mo Yantu quickly covered the wound with his hand and asked with confusion.
