Chapter 473 Reinforcements are coming

It was a cavalry! The cavalry was covered in dust, and the constituent clothes on their bodies were covered with dust, but they were all brave enough. They waved their spears and used the impact of the horse to penetrate the chrysanthemum of the Tianwan Army.

The battle flag flutters in the wind, and above it, there is a large character Xu.

It’s Xu Da! Xu Da finally arrived!

Xu Da waved his spear and kept stabbing Tian Wanbing who was standing in front of him. He was very anxious. Although he ran all the way and no one had a rest, he immediately entered the battle.

Originally, Xu Da thought he could not arrive on time no matter what, but suddenly he became a quick idea and made them realize his mission.

After the stone bridge collapsed, Kang Maocai led the infantry and felt that they could finally rest assured. For several days, they were exhausted. Therefore, Kang Maocai only sent a few people to the riverside, and most of them retreated for several miles, set up camp at a suitable location, and temporarily rested.

After the 30,000 infantry led by Zhou Dexing caught up, he met with Xu Da. Zhou Dexing was also very anxious when he saw Xu Da's predicament.

Suddenly, a strategy appeared in Zhou Dexing's mind. Now, since it's too late to detour, I might as well build another bridge!

It takes a long time to build a strong bridge, but it would be simple to build only one simple bridge that allows them to travel with each other temporarily.

As soon as Zhou Dexing and Xu Da talked, Xu Da immediately agreed.

Zhou Dexing sent a team of thousands of people to the nearby villages and collected all the wooden boards of each household, such as door panels, bed panels, etc.

At the same time, more than 20 soldiers who knew water dragged long ropes and swam across the other side. They found several strong trees thick enough on them, and tied the rope tightly on them. In this way, more than 20 ropes were tied to both sides of the straits, forming a bridge made of ropes.

Due to gravity, the middle is sinking. Although I tried to pick up high places and tied them to both sides, the middle still almost touched the water surface. Fortunately, this was only about forty steps, and if it was longer, it would definitely not work.

At this time, the wooden boards were already gathered, and the soldiers nervously laid the wooden boards on the rope bridge and fixed them properly. In this way, the proposed bridge was built, and it was slightly wider than the original bridge, but when you walked up, it was still tangible.

Although this movement is not small, Kang Mao was at ease. His army had already been asleep and had not noticed it.

After the stone bridge was built, Zhou Dexing's infantry first passed 10,000. On the one hand, he tried whether the bridge was strong. On the other hand, he immediately rushed towards Kang Maocai's station after it passed. At this time, it was time to give Kang Maocai a better look.

After that, Xu Da couldn't wait to go up the bridge. After all, it was his important task to cross the river and go to Taiping.

The bridge is tangible. In order to prevent the horses from being afraid, even though it was already night, the horses still blindfolded. Then, the soldiers led their war horses and finally crossed the floating bridge.

There were already shouts of killing in the distance. It was Zhou Dexing's infantry and Kang Maocai's army handed over in the dark. Xu Da did not participate in the war. Zhou Dexing's subsequent 20,000 infantry continued to cross the bridge. Moreover, this time it was a night attack, I believe that Kang Maocai would suffer a great loss.

For Xu Da, the most important thing now is to go to Taiping City to support him immediately.

After some running around, he finally arrived outside Taiping City. Without rest, he just arrived and saw that the battlefield was so critical. Although he was exhausted along the way and had not eaten yet, he still immediately entered the battle. Even if he was exhausted, he had to exert force!

Xu Da grasped this fighter very well. At this time, he was about to break through the city. Wan Sheng, the commander of the Tianwan Army here, attacked very fiercely, and he wanted to drive everyone down to the city.

All the troops rushed forward in a hurry, and the people behind pushed the people in front. In this way, even if the people in front didn't want to rush forward desperately, they would be in control. And many injured soldiers in front didn't want to retreat. As long as they were not dead, they had to rush forward!

Wan Sheng's method was very high. Under such an attack, he suppressed Zhu Yuanzhang and couldn't breathe. Even Zhu Yuanzhang himself had to fight in front like a big-headed soldier.

Such an offensive was very strong, but later it became empty and had no defense.

There were 70,000 people attacking here, and this time Xu Da brought only 20,000 cavalry, but the cavalry against infantry was like wolves entering the flock of sheep!

Seeing this team of cavalry coming, Wan Sheng immediately panicked. Infantry against cavalry, he had to form a formation to fight. Now, he didn't even have a complete team of 100 people in his hands.

And that team of cavalry knew at a glance that there were at least tens of thousands of people. It was probably impossible for him to mobilize personnel to block the arrival of this team of cavalry. Looking at the attacks of those cavalry, fear immediately occupied Wan Sheng's mind. He knew that if he didn't run away, he would definitely be trampled into flesh by these cavalry!

Finally, Wan Sheng left his troops behind and fled to the south with dozens of personal soldiers.

On the top of the city, the soldiers fighting hard felt something behind them. When they looked back, they saw that the brigade of cavalry was coming quickly towards them. Wherever they went, there was a sea of ​​blood.

The attack of this army was so fierce that the soldiers who were trampled under the horse's hooves made desperate screams, and this sound made the others frightened.

Who dared to fight against such a unit? The soldiers who did not come to the city were scattered, and there was only one idea in their minds: run away!

The handsome flag behind has disappeared, and even the main general has run away. Who is willing to fight again?

Without the subsequent soldiers coming up, the situation on the city head changed immediately. Tianwan's troops became less and less, and the courage just now was gone. The rest were either surrender or poked to death. Some people had no choice but to jump off the city and fell into flesh mud.

The spear in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand was still dripping with blood. He took a breath. Just now, he even thought that he was really not good. Now, the arrival of Xu Da's army finally made him feel safe.

Wait! At this time, the navy troops facing the north may have already stepped onto the city wall? Thinking of the rising water, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that the pressure on the north city wall is now the greatest, how could the hundreds of defenders there be defended?

"Boom, boom!" At this moment, a huge roar came from the north.

What is this sound? Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he was a little familiar.

"Boom, boom!" The sound rang out again. Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang was convinced that it was the sound of the bowl gun equipped by Chen Feng!

However, Chen Feng transferred the bowl guns to the city wall to the west, where there was no such firearm?

Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled, and at the same time, he did not hesitate. He turned the danger into safety here. He needed to hurry to the city wall to the north.

At this time, the defenders on the top of the city had changed from 1,200 to less than 600. The battle just now was so tragic.

While walking along the city, Zhu Yuanzhang heard the roar constantly coming. Hearing this sound, the number of these bowls of guns was definitely more than those dozens, and I'm afraid there were hundreds of them!

Zhu Yuanzhang was jogging along the city wall. At this time, he was confused, excited, and hopeful.

Halfway through the road, I saw from a distance that there was a fierce battle on the top of the city.

The people wearing red scarves fought together. Sure enough, the Tianwan Sailors had already climbed to the top of the city!

However, just like the situation on the east wall just now, although the battle on the top of the city was fierce, the enemy's subsequent troops were unexpectedly attacked.

From the downstream, a team of warships drove up against the current. These warships seemed to have forty or fifty ships, almost all of them were vehicles and ships. The flags hung high on the bows represented that this was the Taihu Navy's ship.

Chen Feng's Taihu Navy finally arrived, and once they arrived, they also joined the battle.

The two warships could not confront Chen Youliang's navy, and these dozens of warships were different, not to mention that these warships were equipped with long-range bowl guns.

When there are fewer numbers, the bowl-mouth guns are not effective. Now, dozens of warships and thousands of bowl-mouth guns are fired again, and the effect is completely different.

Liu Yanchang stood on the boat building, looking at the situation outside Taiping City with a thousand-mile mirror. The warships all raised their heads, and in this way, the bow of the boat was higher than the city wall, just so that the soldiers could jump directly to the city wall.

The commander of this navy army was so smart. Although he was hostile, Liu Yanchang admired them a little.

Even though I admire him, for Liu Yanchang, the most important thing now is to kill these naval troops!

Liu Yanchang was observing with a thousand-mile mirror while calmly placing orders.

"Line-lined, all use port firearms, aim at the warships near the city."

Although Liu Yanchang had not entered the naval schools of later generations and had no teachers, he learned without a teacher and had mastered the skills of naval battles in the era of artillery duels in later generations.

For example, now, if you want to maximize your own firearm advantages, you must line up so that all firearms on one side can shoot.

Just now, I just tested the shooting point, determined the bounce point, and then corrected my shooting angle, and then shot again, which would be a rocky mountain!

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he had to first defeat the Tianwan soldiers who had reached the top of the city into the water, so that he could win.

Just before he could run to the battlefield, he heard a sound coming from afar that made people's ears deaf.

Boom, boom, boom!
Chapter completed!
