Above the city wall, Wang Shouren's army of [-] left, but the movement was not small, but these generals did not understand what was going on with Wang Shouren's departure. They were afraid that it was Chu Yi's trick, and they informed King Ning immediately. .

King Ning specially summoned Liu Yangzheng, Li Shishi, Yang Tinghe and others for this purpose.

It's just that everyone didn't know that Wang Shouren led the army to leave not because of some conspiracy to calculate them, but to go to Jiangnan to pacify the rebellion, so a few people accompanied King Ning to discuss it, but in the end there was no result, only Can order the defenders to be more careful.

On this day, the mighty reinforcements came along the river, and it was the reinforcements sent by the imperial court from the local area, adding up to a total of [-].

Originally, Zhu Houzhao planned to recruit a local army of [-] troops to help Chu Yi, but at Chu Yi's request, he selected [-] strong soldiers from the [-] troops.

The [-]-strong army gathered the remaining [-] soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court reached more than [-] soldiers and horses at once. It can be said that the number of soldiers is almost close to the soldiers defending the city of Nanjing.

When the imperial reinforcements arrived, in Nanjing city, King Ning was shocked three times a day, unable to eat and sleep. In one day, he sent more than ten waves of fast horse messengers to various places in the south of the Yangtze River, trying to recruit the bravery of those noble families in the south of the Yangtze River to help you defend the city.

Chu Yi drove his horse to the bottom of Nanjing City, and looked at the high city wall from a distance. Behind it, tens of thousands of troops came slowly. The rebels above saw the scene below, and many people couldn't help showing panic on their faces.

King Ning, who was informed of the news, also appeared on the city wall for the first time, and saw King Ning in a dragon robe standing on the city wall, looking at Chu Yi below him and the army behind him, his eyes couldn't help but look at him. Shrinking, and looking at Chu Yi's eyes filled with hatred.

In order to deal with Chu Yi, King Ning spent all his energy to invite Zuo Lengchan, and tried every means to persuade Feng Qingyang. He thought that even if he couldn't kill Chu Yi, he would at least be able to inflict heavy damage on Chu Yi, but the result was good.

Zuo Lengchan died at the hands of Wang Shouren, and Feng Qingyang was killed by Chu Yi with a sword, but Chu Yi was not damaged at all.

King Ning and Chu Yi only met for the first time, but they were staring at each other.

After taking a look at King Ning, Chu Yi shouted at King Ning above the city wall and laughed: "King Ning's rebels listen, Your Majesty has a purpose, His Majesty is merciful and can't bear to kill, remembering that you are under the care of King Ning. Force, Your Majesty hereby decrees that you and others will be forgiven for their crimes. Those who surrender in front of the battle will be exempted from the death penalty. If there is someone who offers the head of King Ning, the official will be promoted to three ranks, and the reward will be [-] taels of gold!

Many rebels couldn't help showing strange expressions when they heard the words. I have to say that Chu Yi's remarks had a great impact on the rebels' military spirit.

Maybe no one dares to stand up at this moment, but they have successfully planted a seed in the hearts of these rebels. As long as the time comes, they may not take root and sprout.

It can even be said that Chu Yi's remarks made it clear that in the division between King Ning and his soldiers, does King Ning dare to guarantee that his soldiers will not be beaten on the head?

If someone wants to exchange his head for a rich and noble situation, wouldn't he be wronged to death?

King Ning's face became very ugly, and before Chu Yi had finished speaking, he roared: "The robber, don't deceive people, how could Zhu Houzhao be so magnanimous after slaughtering so many people in the capital. ."

Speaking of that, King Ning shouted at his subordinates: "Everyone should not believe the nonsense of Chu Yi, the robber, in the eyes of Zhu Houzhao, the faint-hearted lord, we are all rebel thieves, think about it, what happened to Zhu Houzhao? A group of rebels may be pardoned!"

Ning Wang's remarks made many people dispel the bad thoughts in their hearts, but Chu Yi's remarks also took root in some people's hearts.

During the speech, King Ning, in order to prevent Chu Yi from saying anything that would shake the hearts of the army, shouted at the soldiers around him, "Come here, shoot me, shoot this eunuch!"

A rain of arrows went straight to Chu Yi, Chu Yi squinted his eyes, waved his cloak, and immediately saw that dozens or hundreds of arrows could not break through the cloak, all of them fell to the ground, and the ground was covered in a blink of an eye. arrows.

All the rebels above the city wall watched Chu Yi walk leisurely in the rain of arrows, none of the arrows could get close, standing there like a god, the arrows did not add to their bodies, one by one showed horror in the color of fear.

Send it in [-]D, ask for a ticket, and give a reward for your support.mwah】

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Seeing that Chu Yi was not affected in the slightest by the arrow rain, King Ning's face was ashen. The stronger Chu Yi showed, the less shocked his army was. This was from the reactions of the soldiers around him. See one or two.

In the hearts of many soldiers, Chu Yi was originally portrayed by King Ning as a big devil, but now that even the rain of arrows can't hurt Chu Yi in the slightest, wouldn't it make Jun Jun's heart even more turbulent.

"Where is the fire gun, put the fire gun on me, smash him to death, blow him to death."

King Ning looked at Chu Yi, who was not damaged at all, his eyes were full of madness, and he even roared at the surrounding soldiers.

Chu Yi glanced at King Ning, and returned to the front of the formation after several ups and downs. Many imperial troops saw that Chu Yi was safe and sound under the rain of arrows from King Ning's rebel army, and they all naturally regarded Chu Yi as a god. .

"Master Wansheng, master Wansheng!"

The army couldn't help shouting loudly, which could be described as high morale. On the other hand, King Ning's rebels were pale and fearful.

The war has not yet started, and as a result, King Ning's rebels have been disillusioned by Chu Yi's shock.

Seeing Chu Yi raising his hand slightly, slowly falling down, he shouted in a deep voice: "All the officers and men obey the order, the army will attack the city, kill King Ning, and seal the marquis!"

Countless people couldn't help but stare at King Ning above the city wall with gleaming eyes.

Appointing a marquis, what a feat this is, the Ming Dynasty may not be able to seal a marquis for decades.

That is to say, King Ning established himself as the emperor, so the person who killed King Ning had the opportunity to be named a marquis, otherwise, no matter how great the merits, he would be named an earl.

Just like history, Wang Shouren's more than [-] days of quelling King Ning's rebellion was nothing more than a title of marquis.It is conceivable how difficult it was to seal the marquis before Daming was defeated.

This time, Chu Yi used this as a reward, how big the temptation for the army is.

King Ning felt the eyes of the tens of thousands of troops in the city staring at him, and the whole person became sick in an instant.

"Chu Yi, Chu Yi, castrated thief, castrated thief..."

King Ning angrily smashed the city wall with his fists, scolding furiously.

Following Chu Yi's order, more than a dozen bronze cannons were slowly launched from the army that had already prepared to attack the city.

Artillery can already be regarded as a common siege weapon for the Ming Dynasty.

Even if the artillery is difficult to move, the deterrent power of the artillery cannot be overwhelmed.

To be honest, most of the artillery pieces of this era are solid bullets, relying on the impact of the shells to kill the enemy, the power of the artillery can't compare with the power of the blooming bullets, but the artillery is more of a deterrent.

Chu Yi Bingfeng is a chemistry expert. He doesn't know much about artillery, but he knows the formula of more powerful gunpowder.

Under the request and support of Chu Yi, the East Factory directly dispatched the best craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry and the Armory Workshop of the Ministry of War to study artillery according to Chu Yi's requirements.

In the past few years, although it is said that no modern artillery with terrible power has been produced, the newly cast artillery and the produced blooming bullets are quite powerful, at least much stronger than solid bullets.

King Ning's rebels couldn't help being stunned when they watched the dozen cannons in the city being pushed out.

The most famous capital of Ming Dynasty, Nanjing City naturally also has artillery, but Jiangnan has been in peace for a long time, and artillery has long been a decoration.

In addition, the water network in the south of the Yangtze River is not suitable for the operation of artillery, so very few big cities have artillery.

There are actually more than a dozen cannons on the city wall of Nanjing. Unfortunately, these cannons are almost all left over from hundreds of years ago. They don't even have any maintenance on weekdays. Many cannons are directly rusted. Before killing the enemy, he was killed first.

Several generals of King Ning's generals were surprised when they saw the artillery being pushed out, and said to King Ning at the same time, "Your Majesty, please hurry down the city wall, just in case."

King Ning frowned and said, "It's just a few cannons. I'm afraid even the city walls of Nanjing can't be blasted. Why should I be afraid?"

The city of Nanjing is really high and thick. Just as King Ning said, the solid bullet fired by the Daming artillery can't hit the city wall of Nanjing at all.

Just as several generals were persuading King Ning, a dozen cannons under the city suddenly made a rumbling sound like thunder.

The fire at the muzzle flickered, and the next moment, a rumbling sound was heard above the city wall.

In the dust all over the sky, countless gravels were flying, and a section of the city wall was blasted out to reveal the loess under the bricks.

King Ning was directly terrified, and the whole person shrank behind the city wall, feeling the vibration of the city wall and the rubble thrown all over the sky.

Most of the dozen or so soldiers who were bombarded directly lost their lives. As for those who didn't die, they wailed mournfully.

"Blooming bomb, this is a blooming bomb, how is it possible, how can the power be so great."

It's not that there are no blooming bullets, but because of the power of gunpowder, the power of blooming bullets is not even as good as that of solid bullets, so there are not many blooming bullets.

"Boom, boom, boom"

Waves of artillery bombardment continued to bombard the city wall, and sections of the city wall exploded.

The soldiers who were originally guarding the city wall had long since been frightened. They were lying in the ruins, either covering their wounds and mourning, or shivering and praying that the cannons would not hit them, otherwise there would only be a dead end.

Under the city wall, all the generals opened their eyes one by one, and their faces were full of disbelief.

They naturally understand the performance of those artillery pieces in the Ming army, and for many generals, they would rather use their soldiers to storm rather than transport the heavy artillery thankfully.

Originally, they didn't take the artillery that Chu Yi brought to heart at all, and they were all gearing up to lead the army to attack the city.

As a result, the dozen or so artillery pieces had such amazing power that it could be said that everyone was stunned.

After reacting, these people couldn't help roaring with excitement: "Da Ming Wansheng, Chief Manager Chitose."

Countless imperial troops who were stunned by the power of the artillery also cheered loudly, and the sound shook the four fields, which made all the rebels in Nanjing feel terrified.

Chu Yi looked at the city wall that was filled with gunpowder smoke, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and his eyes narrowed: "Siege the city!"

Immediately, a group of generals roared for him, and many soldiers carried high ladders to attack the city wall.

The King Ning rebels, who were bombed and dared not stand on the city wall, were still in a daze. Some of the generals who responded saw the artillery stop and the astonishing shouts of killing, and immediately understood that the imperial army began to attack the city. !

ps: Too bad, the power outage hasn’t come yet. I knocked out this one with my phone, just this one. My hands are sore and my arms hurt. What is the power outage? Alas, ask for a monthly pass, give a reward

It's just a cup of tea

Three hundred and eighty-four chapters three thousand guards [1 more]

Several generals got up from the ground and shouted: "Everyone goes to the city wall to defend against the enemy!"

The group of people who came back to their senses in a daze then grabbed the weapons at hand and ran to the jagged city wall, looking down one by one with horror.

It was like a black wave below, and countless soldiers came towards Nanjing City with high cloud ladders.

The cloud ladder was placed on the city wall, and the soldiers climbed up the high cloud ladder with shields in their hands. From the air, it seemed like countless ants were crawling on the cloud ladder.

"Kill!"

Not all of the rebels were a mob, some brave people tried their best to push down the ladders one by one, but many archers of the imperial army below shot waves of arrows towards the city wall.

At the same time, the rebels were condescending and shot their arrows downward.

After all, the rebels have the advantage of defending the city. In all the battles of siege, even an elite division wants to break the city without paying a little price.Unless you can open the city gate from the city.

The previous wave of shelling made King Ning feel like a lifetime had passed. When the shelling stopped, King Ning walked out of the hiding place under the protection of several trusted generals.

These generals were not bad at all, relying on the shields in their hands to block the inadvertently shot arrows, and escorted King Ning to the city wall.

From the gap in the shield, King Ning looked down the city, and at a glance, he saw a black patch below, all of which were the imperial army.

In particular, the morale of the imperial army was high, and the momentum of the siege was really amazing, even if King Ning saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Looking at a general next to him, King Ning gritted his teeth and said, "General Li, from your point of view, how long can this Nanjing city last?"

Li Zhenshan was one of King Ning's most trusted generals in the army, and King Ning's forbidden army was led by Li Zhenshan. It could be said that this person had the most elite troops under King Ning's command.

Li Zhenshan frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the last commander will not dare to speak falsely!"

King Ning said: "Whatever you say, I forgive you!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Zhenshan said slowly: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the last general, the morale of the court is high, while our morale is low, and it is very likely that the other party will be swept down..."

Seeing that King Ning's face became ugly, Li Zhenshan hurriedly said: "But if we can block the first wave of offensive, then the next defenders can settle their minds. , relying on the city wall, it is not difficult to defend the city of Nanjing."

At the beginning, what Li Zhenshan said really shocked King Ning, but after listening to Li Zhenshan's last few words, King Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when King Ning's eyes fell on the soldiers guarding the city, he couldn't help but frown again.

Obviously, even King Ning himself could see that the morale of the defenders was very low. Under such circumstances, it seemed that it would be difficult to survive the first wave of siege.

Taking a deep breath, King Ning gritted his teeth and said, "Pass on my will, as long as you can defend the city wall, kill one enemy, and reward you with [-] taels of silver, if you survive today, everyone will be rewarded with [-] taels of silver!"
