Bring the whole war back to Nanming

Chapter 259
"I count to three, if you don't open the door again, don't blame me for being merciless!"

The defense of Nanchang is backed by the imperial court, and the mere He family's family members, isn't that something that can be easily captured?
Outside the gate are densely packed with torches, and you can’t see the edge at a glance. The guards brought no less than 500 people, and reckless efforts will definitely not work. It doesn’t matter if they die, but it would be bad if He Song’s family is involved.

The wall of He Song’s mansion is about [-] meters high, and the servants are equipped with expensive hand crossbows. Anyone who tries to climb over the wall will be attacked by them. A few soldiers paid the price with blood, so everyone dared to surround the mansion. Dare to go one step further.

When Fang Xiaobai arrived and found this scene, he was almost not annoyed. If he couldn't get over the wall, could he not hit the door?

Ignoring the servant who was ready to go on the roof not far away, Fang Xiaobai strode forward, came to the gate of He's house, and contemptuously left behind the timid old officers and soldiers behind him, raised his hand, and punched the gate superior.After a violent shake, the sturdy door fell to the ground.

In an instant, dozens of crossbow arrows attacked Fang Xiaobai at the first time, and everyone couldn't help exclaiming, knowing that at such a short distance, it was still a volley, and it was impossible to avoid it without preparation.

Many officers and soldiers not only closed their eyes, but did not dare to see Fang Xiaobai being shot into a hedgehog.However, a miracle happened. Seeing that the crossbow arrows were about to hit his body, Fang Xiaobai's eyes suddenly blurred. Fang Xiaobai, who was standing in front of the gate, unexpectedly turned to the door, and dozens of crossbow arrows shot empty. .

The sudden change not only fooled the officers and soldiers outside the gate, but also fooled the servants inside who were determined to win.

"Brother, was that kid outside the door just now?"

A servant wiped his eyes, thinking he had misread, and asked his boss in doubt.

"I saw someone there just now, why did I lose my time in a while? Leave him alone and prepare for the next round!"

The boss was also puzzled, so he temporarily dispelled his doubts and prepared to fight defensively.As soon as the gate opened, under the lure of the beautiful woman with money, the officers and soldiers obviously did not learn from the previous lesson, rushing into He Zhai first, Quan Lan forgot what happened to Fang Xiaobai just now.

Sure enough, the officers and soldiers had just emerged, before their front feet fell into He Zhai, and the dense rain of arrows shot them down one by one as if they didn't need money. They didn't have any armor on their bodies, and the number of shields was sparse. The army left dozens of corpses and hurriedly withdrew from the gate of He Zhai.

Fang Xiaobai, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but help his forehead: I heard that the fighting power of the Ming army was low, but I didn't expect it to be so low. How can this be a war?Proper gangsters fighting, knowing that he has just been attacked by a rain of arrows, why doesn't he have a long memory?

Nanchang's defense didn't care. Daming had plenty of people, but what it lacked was gold, silver, treasures and land. It didn't matter if the dead were dead, as long as the gold, silver and treasures were in hand in the end.

As a result, the defense did not make any strategic adjustments, and still ordered the officers and soldiers to continue the attack. As soon as the order was issued, Fang Xiaobai ruthlessly interrupted: "My lord, it is not a problem to continue fighting like this. The servants have long-range weapons. I'm afraid the empty crossbow arrows won't be able to go in, so let me try it."

The Nanchang guard glanced at Fang Xiaobai, and found that he was actually a mysterious master who followed Feng Yongwen (so he thought) when he was in the Wen Mansion, and he probably belonged to the Yue Palace. He refused in his heart, but he dared not provoke the Yue King. He had no choice but to agree against his will: "In that case, I will let you try."

Seeing that the other party agreed so quickly, Fang Xiaobai was not polite. The first thing he did after gaining the command was to gather the shields and heavy armor of the entire army into the hands of some strong soldiers, and they formed a chain of shield formations. , put out a cone shape, and walked into He Zhai in a uniform manner.

The servants in the house found that the officers and soldiers dared to show their heads, and unceremoniously fired another round of volleys. This time, most of the crossbow arrows hit the wooden shield wrapped in iron, making the sound of metal collisions.

"Not good! Send the firecrackers!"

Captain Ding found that the crossbow arrows had lost their effect. He not only lamented that the officers and soldiers had become smarter, but also ordered his men to fetch the firecrackers that were placed on the side.

It can be seen that for the safety of himself and his family, He Song has deployed defensive offensives in the house. He even took the firecrackers that are only allowed to appear in the army to the warehouse for emergency needs.

The loading steps of firecrackers in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a three-eyed blunderbuss or a bird blunderbuss, are very complicated, and it can't be done within three to five minutes, which gives the officers and soldiers a chance.

"Brothers! The thief has no arrows! Gold and silver treasures are ahead! Go!"

The serial shield formation that was barely neat at first fell apart, and the soldiers rushed in all directions impatiently, for fear that if they were a step too late, the good things would be snatched away by the robes around them.

The few soldiers rushing to the front were about to pass through the arch and enter the yard. Unexpectedly, one second they had just stepped on the arch, and the next second they shot seven or eight sharp arrows from the hidden place on the side. The arrows glowed green in the fire, obviously Smeared with poison.

Without any preparation, none of the soldiers at the front were spared. They were shot through their limbs by poisonous arrows. They were so lucky that they died on the spot. Those who were unlucky soon felt the toxin flowing through their blood vessels, and it was extremely itchy. In less than a few minutes, the seven orifices bleed to death.

The officers and soldiers at the back, who took a step back, stopped desperately, looked in horror at the corpses of several soldiers lying on the edge of the gate, and did not dare to move forward even if they were killed.

This series of defensive measures was temporarily opened by the officers and soldiers just after the siege of He Zhai. The whole He Zhai was like a huge group of traps. Without acquaintances as guides, every step was extremely dangerous.

The stagnation of the officers and soldiers gave the servants time to breathe. They picked up the hand crossbows placed aside one after another, and pulled the triggers towards the places with the most people. Throw it to the crowd.

The serial shield array was gone, and there was no protection on the upper flanks. Bows and arrows struck, and easily shot down a large number of money-obsessed officers and soldiers. The thunder exploded on the ground, blowing the officers and soldiers within five to ten meters around to pieces.

The officers and soldiers who lost their organization and discipline once again retreated noisily, crowded and stomped, and the number of dead was as high as 200!

"Damn! If the mud can't support the wall, isn't it just a hundred families? Is it so difficult to solve?" Fang Xiaobai deeply understands the importance of military reform. If this kind of army is allowed to go to the front to fight against the enemy, how many chaos will be killed? .

In desperation, he had no choice but to mobilize two hundred dwarf rangers who were repaired in Wenfu.Fang Xiaobai's sharp eyes can see the enemy's figure in the dark night.

He pointed out the various locations of the enemy to the dwarf ranger, and bought two hundred sets of black cloaks for them. Under the cover of the night, a group of three sneaked into He's house one by one, and quietly approached the servants in various places. The fine iron small ax aimed at the unsuspecting enemy, and threw it out with a whooping sound.

The moment the small ax was thrown, the ranger in charge of melee killing picked up the battle ax behind his back, and trotted towards the enemy.Realizing that the danger was coming from behind, the servants could only dodge the small axe. They had nothing to do with the heavy weapon of the dwarf ranger. They could only watch helplessly as the sharp ax passed in front of them, splitting their heads in two. Half.

　The writer's assistant ate another [-] words from me. Fortunately, I still have the manuscript saved. Why don't the officials fix it?It's silly.
