Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 378 Chaos in Daizhou City

"It's not good, the rebels have started to attack." Sun Chuanting's face changed greatly when he saw the flames rising outside the city and the screams that kept ringing out.

Chen Zhong stared dumbfounded at the rocket shells flying towards this side outside the city, with a look of panic on his face.

"Is this the weapon used by the rebels? What kind of weapon is this?" Chen Zhong stammered and pointed at the rockets flying over.

Before the words were finished, the rockets fired by 40 fire landed on the city gate.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of rocket explosions sounded one after another, and the wooden city gate was instantly destroyed by the explosive rockets, sending sawdust flying.

"My lord, it's not good, the city gate was blown open."

A messenger hurriedly boarded the city wall and shouted at Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong's face changed drastically, "What? The city gate was blasted open? How is this possible? How long has it been before the city gate has been blasted open?"

In just a few breaths, the city gate was blasted open?This weapon is really too scary.

"My lord, the city gate has indeed been blasted open, what should we do?" The messenger looked at Chen Zhong in panic.

"What else can I do? Hurry up and get someone to block the city gate. Otherwise, the rebel army will rush in, and Daizhou City will really be gone." Chen Zhong pointed at the messenger, his face pulled out, and he shouted hoarsely. shouted.

Sun Chuanting looked at the soldiers of Song Hu who had already set up a formation and prepared to charge, his expression changed, "It's too late, they are about to launch an attack."

Chen Zhong hurriedly looked outside the city wall, and saw that Song Hu's soldiers and horses had already set up their formations and were ready to attack.

Song Hu rode together on the horses and shouted loudly: "40 Fire continues to suppress the defenders on the city wall, everyone fills up the moat for me first."

Song Hu gave an order, and the soldiers who were ready behind rushed towards the moat carrying sacks filled with mud.

"Hurry up and shoot the arrows, and shoot all the rebels filling the moat to death." Chen Zhong looked at the soldiers carrying sacks, his face changed drastically, he pointed in the direction of the moat, and kept yelling loudly.

The archers among the defenders on the city wall also hurriedly raised their bows and set up arrows at this time, and the few Fran cannons on the city wall were also pushed out by the gunners.

But before they opened fire, the soldiers carrying 40 fire pointed at them.

After a burst of chaotic screams passed, the rockets fired by 40 Fire flew towards the city wall like a gust of wind and rain.

At the moment when the 40 guns fired, Sun Chuanting hurriedly squatted down, shrank his body into a ball, and squatted under the crenel of the city wall.

Chen Zhong was also pressed to the ground by the guards behind him.

"Boom!"

The rockets fired by the 40 fire fell on the city wall, and explosions rang out one after another.

Before the large wave of defenders on the top of the city could react, a large number of them were killed by rocket bombs.

The fragments produced by the explosion of the rockets easily passed through the thin armor of the defenders like sharp arrows, crushing their internal organs.

"what!!!"

"Help, help!!!"

For a while, the screams on the city wall rang out endlessly.

Some soldiers were hit by the fragments produced by the explosion in non-critical places, and couldn't die for a while. Under the severe pain, they all screamed loudly.

Hearing the screams coming from his ears, Chen Zhong was in a state of confusion.

Chen Zhong wanted to stand up and take a look at the situation, but the guards on his body pressed him down firmly, making him unable to move.

"Oh!"

A 40-shot rocket hit a crenel on the city wall.

The violent explosion instantly blew up the crenel to pieces.

The defenders behind the crenel were hit by the broken bricks and tiles of the crenel, and fell to the ground with screams, unable to move.

Some soldiers were blown and fell to the bottom of the city wall by the shock wave generated by the explosion.

There were explosions everywhere, gunpowder smoke everywhere, and defenders who were killed and blown up everywhere. Blood was continuously flowing on the city walls. The air was filled with the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke, which made people sick.

Sun Chuanting squatted under the crenel, looking at the purgatory-like scene on the city wall, his heart was full of horror. He had only heard that Zhao Wen's firearms were powerful, and he could easily destroy Jiannu's army formation.

Before, he only thought that even if these rumors were true, they couldn't be as outrageous as the rumors said, but now he finally understood that they were all true.

Under the attack of this kind of firepower, let alone counterattack, he couldn't even raise his head.

"This city can't be defended anymore, master quickly retreat!"

A fat servant squatting behind Sun Chuanting roared, picked up Sun Chuanting who was squatting on the ground, and ran to the bottom of the city wall.

Under this level of attack, the defenders on the city wall quickly panicked.

The defenders threw away their weapons and fled down the city wall in panic.

Daizhou Zhizhou covered his ears, and hid under the crenel with a panicked expression, his crotch was wet.

"Run, we are no match for the rebels at all. Run, if you don't run, you will die." A defender threw away the weapon in his hand, let go and fled to the bottom of the city wall.

Next to him were soldiers who were as frightened as he was, and they fled to the stairs screaming.

Soon, the stairs were clogged with fleeing soldiers.

Song Hu held up the binoculars and looked at the city wall where no defenders were exposed, and shouted at the messenger: "Let 40 fire stop the attack!"

After a few breaths, 40 Fire's attack stopped.

Taking advantage of this gap, the surviving soldiers on the top of the city let go of their girls and fled downwards.

Chen Zhong was also pulled up from the ground by his personal guards, and fled downwards.

Before leaving, Chen Zhong looked at Zhizhou squatting under the crenel, trembling, his eyes glazed over, and hurriedly asked his personal guards to take him with him.

At the same time, Song Hu's men had already filled the moat of Daizhou City.

Song Hu looked at the filled moat, waved the long knife in his hand, and shouted: "Everyone mount your horse, charge me!" "

A moment later, Song Hu rode his horse and led the soldiers towards the city gate.

At the other two city gates, the soldiers sent by Song Hu also rode their horses and started rushing towards the city gates.

As long as the city gate is breached, Song Hu is confident that he can take the entire Daizhou City within a short period of time, relying on the strong mobility of the cavalry and the advantages of weapons in his hands.

"kill!"

Song Hu charged forward, holding a long knife made of fine steel, and rushed into the city gate first.

After rushing through the city gate, Song Hu saw the defeated army running wildly all over the ground.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes coming from behind, these rout troops rushed forward without looking back.

But how could the speed of a human be compared with that of a war horse.

Song Hu quickly caught up with them, and Song Hu led the soldiers to divide and encircle the rout.

"Those who kneel and surrender will not be killed!" Song Hu shouted angrily, looking at the panicked defeated army.

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers behind them shouted in unison.

"Those who kneel and surrender will not be killed, those who kneel and surrender will not be killed, and those who kneel and surrender will not be killed!"

All the soldiers following Song Hu looked at the defeated army on the ground fiercely and shouted in unison.

There was a murderous look in the shout, and when the rout army heard the voice, they all knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands under the desire to survive.

Song Hu pointed at the soldiers kneeling on the ground, and looked at the various households following behind him.

"The thousandth household stays here, and the rest follow me!"

Song Hu shouted, then waved the whip in his hand, leading the soldiers behind him towards the city.

Under the guard of his personal guards, Chen Zhong fled towards the camp where Zhenwuwei was located.

At this time, the city of Daizhou had begun to become chaotic. The rout soldiers who escaped from the city wall rushed into the city, shouting incessantly in the city: "The rebels have rushed in, run, these rebels are Murderous demon, run away quickly."

Under the impact of these defeated troops, the people in the city quickly panicked.

Especially those wealthy gentry, after they learned that Song Hu's troops had breached the city wall, they hurriedly closed the gate and started packing up.

"Damn it, what happened to these defenders. Why did the rebels rush into the city so quickly? There were no rebels who came over yesterday, so why did they suddenly rush in today?"

A middle-aged gentry named Wang He led the servants in the family to keep packing the luggage at home, swearing non-stop.

"Damn rebels, what are you doing in Daizhou?"

"Master, it's not good. Some of the rout soldiers who escaped from the city wall are heading towards our house."

At this moment, a servant rushed into the hall in a panic. He looked at Wang He who was packing his luggage in the hall, and shouted anxiously.

"What? The broken soldiers rushed towards our house? What's going on?" Wang He hurriedly put down the things in his hands, rushed to the servants, and asked anxiously.

"Back to the master, it is indeed coming towards our house."

"Damn it, this group of damned soldiers, they definitely want to take advantage of this time to make a fortune, really damn it." Wang He walked around the yard twice, then looked at this servant, "Quickly block the gate for me!" , don't let them in."

"Yes!" The servant roared, and hurriedly ran towards the gate.

At this time, a team of more than 30 defeated troops hurried towards Wang He's house.

The one running at the front is called Li Daning, who is a hundred households in Zhenwuwei.

"My lord, is it really okay for us to do this?" A soldier shouted at Li Daning.

Li Daning laughed ferociously, and said coldly: "Hmph, what's wrong. This Wang He just doesn't take us seriously because he has some connections in Shanxi towns and cities.

On weekdays, he often releases loan sharks, not to mention us, even ordinary people in and outside the city are bullied miserably by him. Wang He's loan sharks alone have killed many people.

This time, I'm going all out to kill him, and I'm going to abolish his Wang family. "

Wang He is a well-known gentry in Daizhou City, and he has quite a lot of connections in Shanxi towns and cities.

Relying on these contacts, Wang He committed crimes in Daizhou City, mainly lending loan sharks.

One characteristic of Wang He is that he is very courageous. As long as someone dares to borrow money from him, he will do so.

For so many years in Daizhou City, Wang He made a lot of money from usury, but he didn't know how many people he killed.

Especially in times of disaster, the imperial court has to collect taxes, but the grain harvests grown by ordinary people are very poor, and they cannot pay the taxes handed over to the imperial court.

At this time, Wang He would give loan sharks to these common people. The interest on the loan sharks released by Wang He was astonishingly high. Even if it was a loan of one or two taels of silver, if it was not returned in time, it would rise to more than ten taels of silver.

Once these common people borrowed his usury, they would never even think about paying it back.Many people were forced by Wang He to sell their sons and daughters in order to repay the loan sharks.

Although there are many people who can't understand Wang He, but because of Wang He's background, they can only dare to be angry and dare not speak out.

For the people who can’t afford it, Wang He will ask them to sign the land transfer documents.

In this way, the land in ordinary people's homes became Wang He's.

Relying on this trick, Wang He became the largest and richest family in Daizhou City in a short period of time.

In the previous time, because of his mother's sudden illness, Li Daning had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Wang He to borrow money after borrowing all the people who could borrow money.

Although Yinzi was borrowed, his mother was not cured and passed away not long after.

While Li Daning was preparing for his mother's funeral, Wang He brought someone to the door and asked him for money, which was 50 taels of silver including the principal and interest.

But at this time, Li Daning was penniless. In order to treat his mother's illness, he emptied his entire family property, and now he had to deal with the funeral affairs, so how could he have money to pay back the money.

Just when Li Daning was praying for Wang He to relax for a while, Wang He led the family's evil slaves to make a big disturbance in the mourning hall, which made his mother feel uneasy until she died.

Li Daning was so humiliated that he wanted to kill Wang He immediately.

But at this time, Li Daning's wife stopped him and said that if Li Daning killed Wang He with one knife, then his family and his twin sons who were just born a few days ago would all be ruined.

Because he cared about his family and the young twin sons, Li Daning had no choice but to endure the bad breath.

Li Daning recalled the previous scenes, his eyes spewed fire, and the ruthless spirit in his chest kept hitting his forehead.

"Old thief Wang He, if you don't slaughter your whole family today, I will take your surname!" Li Daning roared, and rushed towards Wang He's house.

After a while, Li Daning led the troops to stop in front of Wang He's house.

"Kill me!" Li Daning roared, brandishing the waist knife in his hand and charging towards the gate of the palace with all his strength.

The soldiers behind also mustered their strength at this moment, and rushed towards the gate together with Li Daning.

Behind the gate, the servants of Wang He's family blocked the gate tightly, preventing them from entering.

But under extreme anger, Li Daning is like a wild horse that has run wild, with inexhaustible strength.

Under the impact of Li Daning and his soldiers, the gate was quickly knocked open.

Li Daning held the waist knife tightly and rushed in.

After rushing in, Li Daning shouted: "Today, I will not take anything from the palace. Everything belongs to you, but I only have one request, and that is to kill everyone in the palace."

Under Li Daning's instigation, the soldiers under his command rushed into the palace wielding their waist knives and rushed towards the people in the palace.

These soldiers can't deal with Song Hu's soldiers, but it is not too easy to deal with these servants.

The villainous slaves raised by Wang He are usually fierce fighters, but when they saw these ferocious and violent soldiers, they couldn't help but shrink back.
