The door actually opened! ? ! ?
Pu Shisi was stunned.
He asked the pirates to provoke him, which was just perfunctory. He didn't think that the defenders would really be stupid enough to open the door in this situation.
In a daze, the tea cup he was holding fell from his hand and hit his thigh. The hot tea poured on him and woke him up.
No, it couldn't be a scam, right?
Pushus realized something was wrong and shouted, "Let them come back! Let them come back quickly! This may be a trap!"
This reaction made Baiyan Jiao very confused, "A trap?"
Then he lowered his face and said, "No way, even if there is a trap, it's too late for them to retreat now..."
After all, pirates are pirates, and they were gathered together not long ago. They have no systematic drums and flags at all, and they can't enforce orders and prohibitions.
Moreover, the pirates have been carried away by this time. Even if they hear Ming Jin's signal to withdraw their troops, they may not execute it. On the contrary, it is more likely to cause chaos.
After realizing the actual situation, Pu Shisi could only look at the city gate with a twisted face, praying in his heart that the defenders were really stupid.
In front of the city gate, forty lightly armored officers and soldiers quickly rushed towards the provoking pirates, hacked the remaining four or five pirates to death, and quickly cut the ropes on the people.
"Run! Run to the city gate, run to the end, and don't look back!"
The officers and soldiers yelled at the people, and then more than twenty people, regardless of whether they were injured or not, all ran towards the city gate as long as they could move their legs.
The officers and soldiers also held the heads of the fallen soldiers in their arms and retreated.
At the same time, the pirates who charged madly shot many arrows indiscriminately.
This accuracy was so outrageous that only one officer was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, but he was still able to speed up and run towards the city gate.
At this time, the front of the pirates was less than 40 feet away from the city gate. Qi Dali shouted from the top of the city, "Shoot, shoot the hell out of me!"
Instantly, eight huge crossbow guns with more than two hundred crossbow bolts plunged into the pirate team, causing a large area of bloodshed. The crossbow guns in particular could often string together four or five pirates and plow a bloody alley.
In just a few moments, more than two hundred pirates were killed or injured.
Most of the pirates were so frightened by this brutal scene that they couldn't help but slow down their pace, and many even started to turn around and run in both directions.
Waves of pirates, so the momentum slowed down a bit.
But many of the desperadoes were also aroused. They saw the last four or five officers and soldiers dragging a few civilians, still five or six feet away from the city gate, but the city gate was still open. , seems to be shining with gold and silver.
"Keep rushing! The city gate is too late to close!"
"I'm afraid, the officers and soldiers' crossbows still need to be cocked. Let's rush in and win..."
"Rush, rush, rush through the city gate, Quanzhou City is like a naked girl!"
"If you are afraid of death, get out of the way and don't block my way of making money..."
"You will die faster if you stop... hurry up and rush!"
The fierce men and some big and small bosses continued to move forward with wild shouts. The other pirates no longer hesitated and once again brandished their weapons and rushed towards the slowly closing city gate.
Just when the pirates rushed two feet in front of the door, the two huge and heavy gates closed.
Could it be that all the previous efforts have been wasted just one step away? ?
The pirates obviously had no intention of giving up, "Crash into it! Crash into it! They won't have time to lock it!"
The first few dozen pirates slammed into it regardless of their flesh and blood bodies. The city gate shook, revealing a crack as big as a fist. It must have been blocked by something.
"It's not locked! Push harder and it will open! ... Push harder from behind! ... It's about to open, it's about to open!"
The city gate only lasted a few breaths before it was completely pushed open by the raging wave of pirates.
The ecstatic pirates squeezed out of the doorway like toothpaste.
The first few rows of pirates felt their eyes light up and found that there was a huge open space in front of them. When they looked up, they saw that they were still surrounded by high city walls.
Selin mother
! Forgot about the Wengcheng!
After waking up, the pirates couldn't retreat even if they wanted to. The accomplices behind them were pouring in continuously, forcing them to move forward involuntarily to make room.
In this case, they can only find the location of the inner city gate and rush over.
Moreover, the officers, soldiers and people were not seen in the urn city. They must have escaped from the inner city gate, and the city gate there should not have had time to be closed and locked.
The positions of the inner city gate and the outer city gate are staggered to prevent the enemy from breaking through at once.
The pirates quickly arrived at the inner city gate, but found that the gate was tightly closed and would not budge no matter how hard they bumped or pushed.
Suddenly, a strong uneasiness enveloped the hearts of the people in front of them.
"Yao Xiu, if this door can't be opened, there must be a ghost!"
"I've been fooled, I can't stay here, run back, run back quickly..."
"You're still squeezing your mother's breasts. The door is blocked, so you're going to fucking step back..."
"This is a trap, go back, go back!"
The men yelled angrily and tried to run back.
But the people behind didn't know the real situation, so they still rushed in like crazy, and even if they understood, they would still be pushed away by those from behind.
There was chaos in the urn city. Most people couldn't even tell the direction and were squeezing around based on instinct. A stampede happened naturally.
The people behind finally realized that something was wrong and became hesitant in their actions, which soon caused a blockage in the outer city gate.
At this time, more than half of the pirates had not yet entered the outer city gate. When they saw their accomplices blocking the doorway, some cursed and continued to squeeze in, while some became alert and wanted to retreat.
When Pu Shisi saw this scene, he was basically sure that it was a trap, so he no longer had any illusions and looked at the white-eyed dragon.
"Bang the gong and withdraw as much as you can..."
But before he finished speaking, the city head that had been silent for a long time began to move. More than 300 officers and soldiers fired at the rear and both wings of the pirate team.
After one round, the officer handed the finished crossbow to his comrade who was sitting on the ground next to him and was in charge of stringing it. He took the strung-up crossbow and quickly fired another round. Repeatedly, the crossbow arrows continued to harvest the pirates' weapons. life.
Under such a blow, many pirates did not dare to retreat at all, and their survival instinct drove them to look at the city gate.
"It's over! It's all over now..."
The white-eyed dragon was in despair and kept mumbling.
A small half of the more than 3,000 pirates are from his headquarters, and the rest are elites from other families, but now they are basically ruined by the machinations of the official army.
Pu Shisi, on the other hand, calmed down. After all, pirates were just tools in his eyes, and he would not feel sorry for them even if they died.
"I really underestimated Uncle Xie Fang. He actually had the guts to use Wengcheng as a trap..."
This strategy is indeed not a clever one. Under normal circumstances, anyone who encounters a more cautious and formal army will not be fooled. Unfortunately, pirates are not an army, and their discipline and organization are much worse.
After six to seven hundred people were shot dead by the army, except for a few hundred pirates who fled scatteredly, the others had already entered the Wengcheng.
Immediately, countless rolling stones and wood gathered at the outer city gate. After being blocked, the urn, which was about fifteen feet long and ten feet wide, became a real urn, containing nearly two thousand desperate "turtles".
They have fully understood their situation. Some people are slashing at the inner city gate with their weapons, some are even digging at the corners, some are leaning against the city wall as if resigned to their fate, and some are kneeling on the ground and keep digging towards the city wall. kowtow.
Uncle Xie Fang and others stood on the top of the two-foot-high city, silently looking down at all this, thinking about how to deal with these pirates.
Zhou Mi thought for a while and said, "These people are desperate, why not surrender?"
"How to arrange them after they are surrendered?" Uncle Xie Fang frowned slightly, wondering, "We only have so few troops, how can we guard them? These pirates are ruthless and cunning people, and putting them in the city will only cause disaster."
"It's because the official didn't think carefully..." Zhou Mi felt ashamed.
Zhao Jujing said, "Aren't there many people who were arrested outside the city? In my opinion, maybe these pirates can be exchanged." Z.br>
Hearing this, Uncle Xie Fang shook his head again, "No, even if we don't consider the risks in the exchange process, we successfully exchanged the people back, but the pirates will definitely catch more people. We just let the pirates regain their strength in vain... …”
"Either the general said, we might as well kill them all." Qi Dali muttered in a low voice.
Zhao Jujing raised his eyelids and said, "Nonsense! Don't you know that killing prisoners is unlucky? What's more, these are two thousand lives..."
He is both a clan member and a scholar, so he naturally does not want to be known as cruel and unkind. In fact, it is also because of this concern that Uncle Xie Fang has not made a decision.
Qi Dali, a military general, did not dare to talk anymore, but Qian Long was not afraid of Zhao Jujing's identity, so he disapproved and said, "Being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. This is what His Highness said. In the current situation, of course it is easiest to kill." "
"Then...just kill him."
Uncle Xie Fang made a decision and was about to order the soldiers to take action, but Qian Long said, "Why waste so much energy and crossbow arrows? It's up to me."
Then he stuck his head out and shouted, "Everyone down there, if you want to survive, just listen to me..."
After several calls, the pirates in the urn city all looked up and saw a big, round face with a bit of simplicity and joy.
"You people have committed many evil deeds and will never be redeemed. However, God is kind to you and I have decided to give you a way out."
When the pirates heard this, they were all very happy, almost thinking that this round face was a Buddha or a Bodhisattva.
Qian Long continued, "But there are so many of you and it's really hard to keep an eye on. Let's do this. You can select 300 people to survive. As for the rest... you know."
Now the pirate was furious, "Guan Gu! You clearly want to trick us into killing each other..."
"Do you think we are fools? How could we be fooled like this!"
"This dog official is too vicious. Brothers, please don't believe him. As long as we persist, the boss will definitely come to save us..."
Immediately, Qian Long picked up the enemy's crossbow and shot the pirate who yelled the most fiercely, "What are you arguing about? Don't forget that you are just lambs to be slaughtered. If I really want to kill you, it will be easier than crushing a nest of ants. You will survive." I’ve given it to you, it’s up to you whether you leave or not.”
Then the pirates fell into a daze, and then a big leader gritted his teeth and asked Qian Long, "I wonder who you are and what position you hold. Can you be the master?"
Qian Long*** smiled, "I am an eighth-grade Xiu Wu Lang, the deputy commander of the fifth squadron of Si Dong in front of the palace, and a personal guard of His Highness King Yan. Today, I am the master of His Highness the King of Yan. Even Xie Xianggong must recognize it."
"Okay, since you are using the name of His Highness Prince Yan, then we believe you...Brothers, do it!"
The leader decided to take a gamble, and immediately summoned the seventy or eighty confidantes around him, and waved the butcher knife at the nearby pirate associates.
In an instant, a chaotic and cruel cannibalism unfolded. Regardless of whether they wanted to or not, all the pirates were involved in the crazy fighting.
