Arrows are like locusts, blocking the starlight.

Yamada's eyes widened in fear, looking at the sky like a black cloth covering the dead, and pulled it away with a cry.

After the screams, countless people died.

No one knows what they were thinking about in the last moment before they died. They left no words behind and only gave the world the result of death.

Yamada pulled out the arrow from his shoulder and looked at the bloody edge. It was extremely sharp and seemed to have been specially polished. It was far sharper than the arrows of the Seoul defenders!

With blood flowing on his body, Yamada looked towards the battlefield, filled with death songs, undulating tunes accompanied by moans.

"kill!"

Yamada stared with red eyes, raised the long bow in his hand, shouted and charged. He only took two steps forward when he felt his body tremble suddenly, and he suddenly lay back. The speed at which he lay down was very fast. Slow, very slow.

A thick spear pierced the chest, and one end was shot directly into the earth, becoming a support. Yamada seemed to hear the sound of bones rubbing against wood, and his hands dropped weakly.

Take one last look at the city, at the stars, at the world, and exhale your last breath. The pupils are no longer bright, and you can't see the flying arrows...

Countless mountains and fields are advancing, and countless mountains and fields are dying.

Akamatsu Hironobu looked at the not-so-high city wall in front of him in shock. Its bows and arrows were so fierce that they were actually stronger than Seoul! There are not many people hidden in this small city, so why is the counterattack so sharp?

The Japanese army stopped sixty steps away from the city wall. Even if a few were lucky enough to get within fifty steps and use longbows to fight back, they were quickly killed. Those in the middle could not keep up, and those in front could not defend. Hold on, the people behind are still charging.

The tragic battle situation exceeded the level of the Red Army

Matsuhirosin's surprise.

Hosokawa Yorimoto, Yoshima Itshu and other attacks were almost in the same direction. They all suffered heavy losses and were stopped outside the city without even touching the city wall.

withdraw troops.

Akamatsu Hironobu issued an order to reorganize the army and find a new way to defeat the enemy. If he continues to rush forward like this, I don’t know if Turtle City can be defeated. But without the soldiers, he will have to be the grandson of a turtle, and he will be weak to others. If you want to gain benefits on the battlefield, there is no hope of dividing the territory in the future.

Hosokawa Yorimoto, Akamatsu Mitsui, and Yoshima Itsuhide rushed to Akamatsu Hironobu's place to discuss countermeasures. After some discussion, the result was:

Continue to attack...

The reason is:

There is no wild boar that a brave man cannot kill, there are only cowards who can escape from it.

The thinking of the Japanese is very simple. All enemies are wild boars. The weaker ones are small wild boars, and the stronger ones are naturally big wild boars. For example, the Ming army is the wild boar king in their eyes.

You have to forgive them. There were no tigers on the three islands of ancient Japan. The one that caused the greatest harm to them and became a disaster in their lives was the wild boar.

There are heroes who fight tigers in the Central Plains, and they are mighty. Japan can only be a wild boar-fighting hero...

The second forceful attack was obviously an effort.

Hironobu Akamatsu, Yorimoto Hosokawa, Itsuhide Yoshima, Mitsui Akamatsu and others each personally lead the team, and they must overcome it!

On the city wall, Zhang Fu keenly felt that this charge was unusual and issued a military order: "The use of grenades is allowed."

As two whistle arrows flew out.

One by one, the sergeants opened the wooden boxes at their feet. There were long-handled grenades in the boxes. Some sergeants took out two directly.

Hang it around your waist and get ready.

The Japanese army began a crazy attack. The speed and ferocity of this attack were no longer as careless as the first time. Instead, they had a real consciousness of death. They shouted and ran, regardless of the rain of arrows above their heads and the arrows of the people around them. die.

In their eyes, there is only offense!

The man carrying the wooden ladder died. The people behind him caught up and lifted him up to move forward. Before he could take a few steps, he was shot dead. Before the wooden ladder could fall, someone had already taken it.

Use death relay to get closer to the city wall step by step.

The longbowmen began to suppress the Ming army on the city wall. Although the Japanese longbow had great killing power within fifty steps, it was still not worth mentioning in front of the Ming Dynasty's new push shield.

After several modifications, the push shield with several layers of composite materials weighed 20 kilograms. This thing appeared during the Annan War and was a product specially designed to protect against Annan firearms. After iterative improvements, it became the standard shield of the Ming Dynasty.

The Beijing army has tested the defensive capabilities of push shields. Ordinary push shields are enough to prevent the explosive fragments of ordinary Tiger Crouching Cannon gunpowder shells. For example, the push shields carried by Zhang Fu's two brothers are extraordinary versions, specially designed to defend against gods. The machine gun is designed to damage the gunpowder shells, and the total weight reaches forty kilograms.

The Japanese longbow was unable to break through the defense of the push shield.

Sergeant Li San saw that the Japanese troops had piled up under the city wall. He picked up the grenade and hit the wooden handle on the city wall hard. Seeing smoke coming out, he grinned and threw the grenade down.

A bunch of people, a bunch of grenades.

Zhang Fu wants to curse. Can he throw the grenades one by one in order? Also, can he throw them farther away? What if they slide down the city wall?

What if this broken city wall is given to me?

If it blows up, I will have to fight these people hand-to-hand!

Under the city wall, blood has become a river.

Those who were climbing the city wall were even worse. Some of them were hit by grenade fragments on both legs and fell directly. There was also one who fell down and covered his middle leg. I wonder if that guy can still use it. Oh, man. You're dead, don't think about this problem anymore...

firearm!

The noise caused by the grenades was far greater than that of the firecrackers, and the loud sounds merged into one, covering up the shouts of killing.

Akamatsu Hironobu from behind looked horrified when he saw it!

Is this the legendary firearm of the Ming Army?

It's like thunder exploding, taking away the sergeant's life at any time!

The people who arrived at the city after paying a heavy price were instantly turned into corpses, some of which were even mutilated!

far away.

Kyogoku Chimitsu and others have driven their horses to the high slope three miles away, hiding in the dark to observe the battle ahead.

Niki Mikawa originally saw that the army had begun to climb and thought that victory was coming. Unexpectedly, in an instant, those sergeants were either dead or disabled. The Ming army once again had the upper hand, and all the charges turned into meaningless deaths!

"Is this the Ming Dynasty's amazingly powerful firearm and the culprit responsible for the destruction of Iki Island?"

Niki Mikawa asked uneasily.

Kyogoku Chimitsu frowned and looked at Shiba Yishige.

Shiba Yoshitaka was a little unsure and looked at Kyogoku Chimitsu: "I heard from my father that the Ming army's firearms fell from the sky, and there was no sign of the Ming army around. If the Ming army is really nearby, you and my father I’m afraid there is no way to survive.”

Kyogoku Chiguang nodded heavily: "That's right! So, this is just a type of firearm in the Ming army, a close-range firearm! Now

It seems that when the Ming army destroyed Iqi Island, they didn't even use their full strength! "

Hatakeyama Motokuni looked into the distance, and loud noises kept coming. Along with the light and fire, he could see the seriously injured sergeants one by one, and his eyes became cold: "No matter what kind of firearm, it is people who determine the victory of the war! We have to participate in the battle. If Turtle City is not conquered, we can’t go directly to Uiju with confidence, let alone cross the Yalu River!”

Shiba Yizhong looked solemn: "If this happens, a lot of people will be sacrificed."

Niki Mikawa stared at the battlefield in the distance, somewhat doubting whether this small city could be conquered. It would be difficult for the Ming army with firearms to win this battle without paying a huge price and killing countless people.

With murderous intent on his face, Kyogoku Chiguang stared at the city in the distance and said coldly: "Don't forget, when the war started, our target was not Li Fangyuan, but the Ming Emperor Zhu Yunwen! The Ming army is our enemy. , they are already in front of us, if we can't even defeat the small Turtle City, then how can we reach Peking and Nanjing?"

"Let me say, it may not be a bad thing for us to encounter the Ming army's firearms elite here. As long as we break the city, we will definitely be able to seize a large number of firearms and even the firearms craftsmen! By then, the secret of firearms will no longer be It is exclusive to Ming Dynasty, and with this capture, we will gain the power to completely eliminate Ming Dynasty!"

Shiba Yi nodded and stood up to support Kyogoku Chimitsu: "Yes, there must be someone in this city who knows the secret of firearms! Only by taking down Turtle City can we go further! Wealth, fame, land, women, slaves , all outside the Yalu River

, our footsteps cannot stop here, we must fight quickly! "

Mitsuya Hatakeyama looked at Niki Mikawa. Niki Mikawa had no other choice but to express his position: "I also want to see what secrets are hidden in the firearms, which can kill people in an instant!"

Kyogoku Chimitsu, Shiba Yoshitaka and others made a decision, commanded the sergeants to set off, and sent troops to reinforce Akamatsu Hironobu and others. The 40,000 troops were dispersed to a city wall with 10,000 people!

This is the new force and the main force of the Japanese army.

The Shiba clan and the Kyogoku clan are both good at fighting, especially Kyogoku Chiko. The troops he leads are not afraid of death. They are tyrannical and hard to find. They will win every battle!

Mao Zheng saw the approaching army in the distance and informed Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu stared into the distance, stretched out his hand to scratch his beard, and said calmly: "Since they have dispatched the main force, we should not be polite. Send the order, the tiger crouching cannon and the divine machine gunner are ready. The time is almost up, even if they react Come here, it’s too late to return to Qingchuan River for support.”

Mao Zheng grinned.

The real battlefield is not Turtle City, but Anzhou by the Qingchuan River. It is the base camp of Shiba Yishige and Akamatsu Hironobu, where their last food supplies are stored and a group of unsuspecting troops are stationed.

As long as Qingchuan Bridge and Anzhou are occupied, Yoshitaka Shiba, Hironobu Akamatsu and others who stayed west of Qingchuan River will lose their stronghold and rear.

This will be their grave, and no names will be left.

The Tiger Crouching Gunner and the Divine Machine Gunner finally got excited. The Eight Bull Crossbows gave way, and the black muzzles began to protrude from the city wall, while the Tiger Crouching Gunner was mainly inside the city, like an urn city, with black iron looking around the city in all directions.

Zhang Fu's eyes

Passing by more and more Japanese troops outside the city, I looked straight to the east, where armies were marching out of the darkness...
