Chapter 33

With the extreme agility, the Later Jin soldiers could not catch up with Gao Shixin. All the Later Jin soldiers who were blocking the road in front were shot to death by him. He rushed to the wall of the village, and all the Later Jin soldiers who were sleeping on the wall of the village also woke up. In a hurry, the Later Jin soldiers hurriedly picked up bows and arrows and shot arrows at the attacker who was trying to attack them at night.

It is not easy to shoot a person running at the extreme speed in a panic. The arrows shot by the Later Jin soldiers either landed behind Gao Shixin or in front. However, the arrows that Gao Shixin fought back were accurate.

Less than twenty steps ahead was the village wall. Gao Shixin first shot two consecutive arrows and shot two Later Jin soldiers who were pulling arrows in the front direction. Then he ran, put his bow on his back, rushed to the village wall with one steadily, and used his hands and feet together, and then climbed up the village wall. As soon as the man jumped on the wooden board above, two Later Jin soldiers slashed over with swords.

Gao Shixin pulled out the tiger-toothed sword at lightning speed, and with one knife, he cut off the head of the Later Jin soldier on the left. Then he turned around and took the knife from the right, and stretched out his left hand, grabbed the guy's rat-tail braid, pulled his head to the floor, and raised his hand and fell to the other side of the head of the Later Jin soldier.

More Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers rushed over along the wall of the village. Of course, Gao Shixin could not stay here to fight with them. Instead, he quickly turned off the wall of the village, spread his legs and ran towards Mangui and the others.

"Shoot the arrow! Shoot him to death!" A loud roar was heard from above the village wall.

Gao Shixin ran desperately, and rows of arrows roared down from behind, and several arrows hung on his back. Fortunately, the armor of the Later Jin army was strong and thick, and the arrows were just stuck on it and did not shoot through. In fact, it was because he ran too fast, otherwise the armor-breaking heavy arrows of the Jianzhou Jurchens could still shoot through his armor.

If an arrow shot on the face is sure to penetrate.

Man Gui, who was hiding in the dark, shouted: "Hurry up, shoot the arrow!"

One hundred and three brothers blew their bows and arrows at the same time, and a round of arrows flew out. A scream sounded from the village wall. The Later Jin soldiers who were aiming at Gao Shixin's back shot archery fell down immediately.

Gao Shixin had already run to Man Gui and the others: "Go away, I was discovered by Jiannu, let's go back to the city quickly!"

The camp of the Later Jin army was more than one mile away from the Kaiyuan city wall, but no Later Jin soldiers chased him out. First, it was dark and could not see clearly, and secondly, it was afraid of being ambushed, so the Later Jin generals ordered that they were not allowed to pursue him.

After such a big disturbance, the pseudo-khan old slave in the golden tent had been awakened long ago.

"What happened outside? Why did you make a loud noise in the middle of the night?" the old slave sat up and asked.

A guard outside came in to report: "By the master, Ming Gou entered my camp in our military uniform tonight, trying to steal the camp, but was repelled by our army."

Another guard said: "Fortunately, we adopted the plan of Four Beller (Huang Taiji). Those who were guarding and patrolling at night took off their helmets, which did not allow Mingdog to succeed."

The old slave laughed: "Minggou barbarians are so cowardly, how can they accomplish things? It is said that I will attack the city tomorrow morning!"

Now that the Jin army's Baoyi Aha has arrived, as long as they drive them to attack the city, there is no need to consume Dajin's own warriors. What's more, Dajin was attacked by someone this time, and the food and grass were lost. If some Baoyi Aha is not consumed, Dajin will probably have a famine this year.

Before, whenever the old slave was famine, he always killed people without food, and killed all the Baoqians in his family without food. Later, Huang Taiji persuaded Lao slave that instead of killing Baoqi, he might as well take them out to fight.

Gao Shixin took his brothers back to the city. Although the night attack failed, all the brothers returned unscathed and killed at least fifty Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers. Therefore, the failure of the operation had no effect on the defenders in the city.

The next morning, the Later Jin army began to attack the city.

The sun was not rising, and it was just dawn. The gate of the camp of the Later Jin army was open. Groups of coats pushed cars full of macao and walked out of the camp. Following them were countless coats carrying simple cloud ladders. Behind were the neatly armored Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers. The formation of coats in front was chaotic. They were originally cannon fodder, and their mission was to fill the trenches and put the simple cloud ladder on the top of the city.

At this time, the Later Jin army's siege skills were very poor. They had not yet appeared siege weapons such as shield cars, ladder cars, and collision cars. Therefore, the old slaves usually rely on the method of opening the city gate in the city to break the city by siege. If they did not do it in detail, they would persuade the surrender first. If they failed to persuade the surrender, they would use the method of ants to attack the city to attack.

Until the death of Lao Nu, Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne. By that time, the siege technology of the Later Jin army improved a lot. With artillery and shield chariots, there were more coatings to help them build large-scale siege weapons.

Seeing the unprotected coat pushing the car full of macaques gradually approaching, Marin sneered repeatedly: "Jiannu's siege is not as good as Err!" After saying that, he turned around and shouted: "Send the order, wait until Jiannu gets closer, fire the gun and shoot arrows! Don't waste arrows and ammunition at will!"

There were still fewer archers in the Ming army. That was because of the large number of firearms, and many Ming soldiers no longer learned to arch, but used more labor-saving firearms. So much so that ordinary Ming soldiers could not even have the ability to fight with cold weapons. However, the servants of various officers and generals were still good at fighting with cold weapons.

In fact, in this era, firearms could not replace cold weapons because the firearms were loaded too slowly and their reliability was too poor. The shoddy Ming munitions were easily exploded, and soldiers did not dare to fill enough gunpowder, resulting in a significant reduction in power and a shortened range.

When the vehicle pushed by the coat was still a hundred steps away from the city, the servants of officers at all levels began to shoot arrows.

The servants took out light arrows, pulled out the small bow, aimed at the sky at an angle of 45 degrees, and relaxed their fingers, and the arrows covering the sky flew into the sky and fell into the crowd of Baoyi Aha.

Only a scream was heard in the crowd, and dozens of Baoyi Aha were nailed to the ground by long arrows falling from the sky. There was a little chaos in the Baoyi crowd. Some people dropped their vehicles, turned around and ran away, but were stabbed by Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers behind them, all of them chopped off their heads.

A Jianzhou Jurchen soldier with a bearded face shouted with a head in his hand: "Those who retreat without authorization will be killed!"

Some of the Baoyi Aha were so scared that they hid under the car to avoid the arrows they shot. However, the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers did not let them go. The Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers wearing thick armor walked forward, grabbed the Baoyi braids hiding under the car, pulled their heads out of the car, and then took their knife and fell down, and their heads with rat-tailed braids with money rolled to the ground.

When the alive Baoyi Aha saw the tragic situation of his companion, he had to bite the bullet and continue pushing the cart, braved the rain of arrows shot from the city, and continued to move forward.

At this moment, a few dull roars sounded from the city. The Ming army's Fran cannon fired, and four liang of solid projectiles crossed into the crowd, pulling out blood lines. Dozens of coats were beaten into scattered bloody minced flesh without even having time to scream.

The arrow rain on the top of the city shot one after another, and every round of light arrows could take away the lives of dozens of Baoyi Aha.

The Franco gunners nervously loaded the gun. They pulled out the gun, stuffed the new gun into the belly of the cannon, and then inserted the horizontal bolt into the holes on both sides of the cannon abdomen, fixed the gun, and then ignited the fire.

"Boom boom boom" was another dull roar, and six solid shells crossed from their wings into the coated crowd, causing another bloody storm.
