Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Fu Weiming didn't have much confidence in his heart, and She Chongming didn't have much confidence in his heart at this time, and he was also fighting hard.

He ordered the whole army to attack the city just now, but the guards left around She Chongming are actually not that many. If a large army suddenly appeared at this time, She Chongming himself would have to confess here today.

What made She Chongming regret it even more was that he didn't know the situation in the city at all.

Although the number of artillery fires of the Ming army has been decreasing day by day, what if this is a trick played by the Ming army to reduce the number of stoves?

If the whole army presses up to attack the city, the probability of success is certainly higher, but if the Ming army does not lack bullets, then the losses of these troops will be greater.

However, what kind of soldiers do you have in your heart?

For these people, it is no problem to let them fight with the wind, but if they continue to attack with casualties beyond their tolerance, I guess I will have the same end as my son Sheyin.

It's just that it's too late to regret it in my heart. Now that the army is overwhelmed, life or death depends on this fight.

In fact, the real combat effectiveness of She Chongming's army is worse than what She Chongming thought in his heart.

In other words, the defense commanded by Fu Weiming was much stronger than what She Chongming expected at the beginning.

There is a lack of weapons on the top of the city, right?

It doesn't matter, there are plenty of golden juice.

Fu Weiming, who had seen Emperor Chongzhen use this thing to deal with Jiannu, followed suit. He cleared up all the dung pits near the city wall, and then recruited some peasants and peasant women, just letting them set up a big pot to boil the cesspool. stuff.

And the result made Fu Weiming very satisfied.

Although this thing smells a bit outrageous, after all, it is boiled shit... But, this thing is very useful.

It doesn't matter how many people are poured on a siege ladder, as long as the two people who are about to climb to the top of the city are poured, the two people will definitely fall down screaming.

And when these two people fell down, they would inevitably pull more rebels down together.

Therefore, when there were not enough rocks and rocks in the city, the impatient Fu Weiming simply pinned his hopes on Jinzhi.

Chapter 338 Who is more ruthless

The Yi soldiers are actually very good at fighting, which Fu Weiming also has to admit, the characteristic of fighting to the death and never retreating can also be found in them.

But no matter how hard the Yi soldiers thought about it, they never imagined that Fu Weiming would actually come up with a big killer that no one was willing to use for a long time, the golden juice.

Especially when the Ming army had cannons to help defend the city, the generals of the Ming army used gold juice less and less.

This thing is like a double-edged sword. When it hurts the enemy, it often hurts itself.

Among other things, the stench alone cannot be dissipated in a day or two.

At the very least, the dose used by Fu Weiming in front of him should not be dispersed for at least ten days and a half months, and this must be done after the battle to clean up the traces of gold juice under the corner of the city wall.

A stench rose up into the sky, whether it was the siege or the defenders, at this moment they all wished that they had typhoid fever, so that they could not smell this pungent smell.

Fu Weiming didn't care at all, what's wrong with the golden juice, what's wrong with boiling it, I'll pretend I can't smell it, if I frown, I won't be a hero!

At this moment, the south wind was picking up, so Fu Weiming simply walked a few more steps towards the head of the city—forget it, let's smell it less.

It's just that as time goes by little by little, the golden juice is gradually not enough.

Although the raw materials of the golden juice are everywhere in Yongning City, enough for Fu Weiming to misfortune for a few more days, but the cooking speed can't keep up.

I don't know if changing it to cold ones will have any effect, but if someone is willing to climb to the top of the city covered in shit, there is really no way.

The ladders used to attack the city were not the ones that Emperor Chongzhen had seen in TV dramas before. Even when Jiannu besieged the capital, Emperor Chongzhen had no chance to see this thing.

——It is impossible for Jiannu who came from afar to come here with a ladder, and the materials needed to build a ladder have basically been cleaned up in advance, so it was not until the time when Wang Zuohang was cleaned up that Emperor Chongzhen really saw the ladder. appearance.

From then on, Emperor Chongzhen knew clearly that what he had seen in TV dramas was basically a thicker ordinary ladder, which was made by the director team or the prop team to save money and fool people.

The real ladder is like what Fu Weiming is facing now.

This thing is not like an ordinary ladder, but like a slope, it is placed obliquely on the top of the city, and there are hooks on it that can be hung on the city wall.

It is not easy to get this kind of hook after the siege battle is over, not to mention that at the beginning of the war, the city will throw a rain of arrows at the top of the city to suppress it.

This kind of ladder is actually quite cumbersome, with a steep slope, and even the soldiers on the attacking side can be described as walking up.

In this case, there are only a few ways to prevent the soldiers from the attacking side from attacking the city.

The Leimu Rolling Stone is a kind of thing, relying on its own gravity and inertia, it will forcefully smash the soldiers on the ladder to the ground;

Gold juice is also a kind, and it is uncomfortable to splash this thing on anyone - the boiled dung water is no less than any biochemical weapon, and once a wound on the body is contaminated with this thing, it basically means waiting for death;

Another way is to burn the ladder or use a bumper to knock it open.

But whether it is burning the ladder or using a bumper to break it, generally speaking, it is not realistic.

The first thing is to knock the ladder away. The bumper used is so stupid that it takes 30 people to push it at the same time.

But the crux of the problem is, if there are 20 people standing horizontally on the top of the city and then pushing against the wood, except for the large cities like Beijing, Jinling, and Chang'an, how many of the city's tops can hold so many people?

In this way, the last solution left is to burn the ladder.

But if you want to burn down the ladder, you have to ignite the fire. This is easy to do. Da Ming doesn't have strong kerosene, as long as he pours it upwards and then ignites it, he will be able to survive. Even if it is raining, he is not afraid of this.

But the problem goes back to the first question. If you want to remove the hook, you will face the rain of arrows thrown from the city. When you light the fire on the ladder, it will not be covered by the rain of arrows?

That is obviously impossible.

Although it is said that the protection of the shield can start to work when the fire is ignited, but isn't it just in case?

In case any unlucky guy is shot, the torch in his hand just ignites the kerosene on the top of the city. Is it burning the ladder or burning himself?

All in all, once a ladder like this is on the top of the city, to the defenders on the city, it is like a toad climbing on the feet.

Under normal circumstances, as long as the defenders are well-prepared, it is difficult to capture the top of the city by simply relying on ladders, but it will bring great casualties to the defenders at the top of the city. In short, it is very disgusting.

The current Fu Weiming encountered such a situation. He couldn't hit it when he knocked it away; he was burned, and he was afraid of hurting his own people. It would take too long to burn it with a torch.

And the golden juice in the city gradually began to run out.

As the defense of the defenders at the top of the city gradually weakened, She Chongming and An Bangyan began to feel that there was great hope of winning Yongning.

Already looking forward to the scene of massacring the city, An Bangyan, the elder of the fourth generation, said: "Your Majesty, you can also throw in the troops in my hand. Yongning is already waving to us."

An Bangyan instinctively felt that something was wrong, and objected: "Wait and see, if there is no change in half an hour, throw your soldiers and horses in together."

Although An Bangyan was born as a great elder, his experience in leading troops in battle was far inferior to that of She Chongming. Hearing this, he just hummed and stopped mentioning the matter of throwing the last reserve troops in his hands into the siege Son.

Fu Weiming at the top of the city looked at She Chongming and An Bangyan in the distance who had not invested the last reserve forces in the siege, but the pressure on the top of the city was slowly increasing, so he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Send me the general order , drive them down, and burn the ladder!"
