Chapter 848 Breakthrough

Chen Changbing led thirty elite soldiers, all of them wearing double armor, holding big knives, long axes, and firecrackers. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Jindou Pass being suppressed by the artillery of the rebels, they rushed over fiercely.

A few long arrows and a few projectiles were shot here and there here and there, but I don't know where they went.

When Chen Changzhu came under the city gate, he saw that the Qianjin gate wrapped in fine iron had been blasted by the "General Qingtian" to open several holes and cracks, but due to the restriction of the fine iron outside, it could not allow soldiers to pass through.

At this time, there was a rumbling sound of guns overhead, gravel and sand fell down, and the smashed helmets of soldiers rang loudly.

Chen Changzhu made a decisive decision and immediately ordered: "Slash with a knife and axe!"

This jack gate is about two or three inches thick, wrapped in fine iron on the outside, and solid wood inside, so it is extremely strong.Originally, it was hard to break with a knife and axe, and hard to hurt with a gun.Fortunately, the rebels cast ten-thousand-jin Hongyi cannons and fired fifty-jin iron bullets, which were able to penetrate easily.

After the Qianjin gate was pierced by the rebel shells, although there was only a six- to seven-inch hole left in the fine iron outside, the solid wood inside cracked along the grain.

Chen Changbing and the others followed the cracked grain of the wood, chopping it from top to bottom in turn.

As soon as I closed it, I heard the "ding ding dong dong" hacking sound, and I became anxious immediately.Under the temptation of the guards, some people took advantage of the gaps between the artillery fire of the rebels to shoot arrows, guns, and stones at the gate.

"Close to the city wall, all close to the city wall, you continue to chop!" Chen Changzhu shouted, and ordered the soldiers to chop faster.

Several knives and axes had broken their blades, so they had to be discarded and replaced with new ones to continue chopping.

The rebel army has already cut a gap along the crack in the solid wood inside the Qianjin gate, and needs to cut another gap, and then cut off the whole piece, so that the soldiers can enter.

Zhang Shun looked at it from a distance, and couldn't help feeling anxious.Righteous brother Chen Changbing and these thirty masters are now being beaten passively. If something happens, how will he face his sister-in-law Wang?
He originally thought that his righteous brother Chen Changzhu had fought hard and failed in Tongguan, but this time he was allowed to go into battle to pick up a mistake, which can be regarded as an explanation.But he never expected that the Qianjin gate would be so strong.

Only then did Zhang Shun realize that if the Qianjin gate is a little bit easy to break through, how can it be allowed to stay until now?If it wasn't for relying on the power of the "General Qingtian Cannon" this time, I'm afraid the rebel army would still be overwhelmed by the ocean, and their troops would be under the strong pass.

Just as Zhang Shun thought of this, he suddenly saw a few packages thrown by Jin Douguan, hitting the city wall, flying a large amount of white powder, and creating a puff of smoke.

Immediately, the powder fell all over the soldiers in the city, just like a light snowfall on March [-]th.

Zhang Shunzheng was puzzled, but heard a few soldiers covering their eyes and screaming.

"What's going on here?" Zhang Shun hurriedly asked Dudu Zhang.

"Zhiniang thief, this is quicklime!" Dudu Zhang couldn't help gnashing his teeth, and quickly turned around and ordered to the soldiers beside him, "Go get a pot of oil, and send it up quickly!"

The soldier left quickly after hearing the words, and then Dudu Zhang explained: "Quicklime boils when it meets water, and it must not be washed with clean water. Only by using oil in time can there be a chance of rescue!"

Hey, I still need you to teach me?Of course Zhang Shun knew that quicklime could not see water, but he did not expect that the rebel army could use oil to solve the problem of quicklime getting into eyes.

It turned out that when the officers and soldiers suffered a disastrous defeat, Zuo Guang first led the soldiers to retreat to Tongguan.It's just that due to the long period of peace in the country and the weakening of armaments, many of the wooden artillery stones above Jindouguan and Tongguan have already been lost, and only the firepower of firecrackers, bows and arrows is weak.

It happened that a lot of quicklime and sand were piled up near the checkpoint, ready to repair the gate.

Then Zuo Guangxian ordered people to take quicklime and crush it, wrap it in paper and cloth and throw it down to stop the rebels.

Where have you seen this before?Immediately, the damage was heavy, and many people were burnt to their eyes, or even directly blinded.

Cao Wenzhao and Chen Changzhu offered a huge reward to solve the problem. Fortunately, there was a cook in the rebel army who had encountered a similar situation before, and he proposed to wash his eyes with oil, which solved the problem.

This is really "the local people have their own methods". Although the ancients may not understand the principle, the bloody experience and lessons handed down from their ancestors are also their survival strategy.

Not long after, some soldiers rushed up with the guns and bows of the officers and soldiers, delivered the oil, and washed the eyes blinded by the quicklime.

After another half hour, only a burst of cheers was heard.

Immediately, there were fewer and fewer rebel soldiers outside Jin Dou's gate, and as the last person got in, Zhang Shun saw a small door on the Qianjin gate was slashed open by the rebel soldiers with knives and axes.

"Okay!" Zhang Shun cheered up, and couldn't help but order, "Hurry up and send someone to follow up, we can't let Changzhu and others fight alone!"

Although both Jindouguan and Tongguan are called Guan, Guan and Guan are different.The former is actually just a checkpoint, while the latter is a checkpoint.

The difference between the two is that the latter is really a city, with not only walls and gates, but also Tongguanwei's family soldiers living in the city.

But Jindouguan is just a large mound, with nothing but a closed gate for people to enter and exit, not even a closed tower.

When Chen Changzhu led the crowd to break through the Qianjin Gate of Jindou Pass, they only saw an empty space behind the pass, without any buildings.

It turned out that the officers and soldiers were stationed at this three or four zhang thick pass. If the enemy could not be wiped out, the rebel army would still be unable to pass through.

Chen Changliang looked around and saw a narrow staircase, which was on the side behind Jindou Pass.He quickly ordered: "Kill up, the other brothers of the rebel army will follow immediately!"

The [-] or [-] people led by Chen Changbing were all daredevils. Hearing this, they didn't even frown. Holding a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, they rushed up against the city wall.

The officers and soldiers who closed the door also discovered the rebel army in time, and quickly shot at the soldiers rushing up with bows and bullets.It was just because these soldiers were wearing double armor that Yamaru could not enter.

The two sides quickly fought hand to hand, and because the stairs to the pass were very narrow, only one person could pass through.Moreover, one side of the stairs was suspended in the air, and the rebel soldiers could only rely on the wall on the right to fight. They couldn't use it, and they were quickly driven down by the officers and soldiers.

"Left-handed, who the hell is left-handed, let me go to the front!" Chen Changzhu couldn't help shouting loudly.

Only left-handed people can hold a shield in their right hand and a knife in their left hand, avoiding the obstruction of the wall on the right and fighting to their heart's content.

It's just that before Chen Changlan could find the left-handed man and stepped forward, the officers and soldiers went down the stairs, intending to wipe out the twenty or thirty people in one fell swoop.Chen Changbing hurriedly ordered his soldiers to block the officers and soldiers at the stairs, preventing the opponent from taking advantage of their large numbers.
