As a result, most people didn't take the fire seriously. Occasionally, one or two people noticed the fire under their feet and wanted to extinguish it, but they were squeezed away by the dense crowd.

It stands to reason that with such a dense crowd, the explosives thrown down would definitely be extinguished by stepping on them, but Daming has too many skilled craftsmen who specialize in making explosives.

The explosives they made are difficult to extinguish unless water is used, and in order to prevent accidental branches, the fuses of the gunpowder are also set very short.

In this way, the enemy will not have much reaction time.

boom!boom!boom!

The huge explosion resounded through the sky and could not be heard. At the same time, Qin Jun's stumped limbs and arms were accompanied by the huge explosion.

After special processing, the grass shield is indeed superior in defense, but it is useless in the face of science and technology.

When each ball of gunpowder exploded, it burst into incomparably huge flames. Under the blue sky and broad daylight, it was an incredible thing to be able to clearly see such a huge flame.

It is enough to see how outrageous the power of this explosive is.

The Qin army gathered under the city wall, because of the continuous explosions, killed and injured a large number of people in an instant.

During the siege just now, because of the bad location, they were ravaged by the soldiers of Ming Dynasty. Now it can't be said to be ravaged, it's completely a one-sided massacre.

The explosion in just a few seconds caused tens of thousands of casualties, and the soldiers of Daqin had no idea what happened.Some of them have not yet realized that so many casualties are all due to the explosives dropped from the city wall.

But their survival instinct also made them flee immediately, and they no longer dared to stay under the city wall, for fear that they would be the next to die.

Seeing Li Xin with a broken arm flying in front of him, he was dumbfounded.

He even forgot to give the order to retreat. The turn of the battle was too sudden.

They have been led by the nose by the people in the north all the time?From the beginning of not fighting behind closed doors to the sneak attack, and now, pretending to be invincible, but using such a perverted weapon, this is completely being led by the nose.

Hou Shen, who had just walked out and was not very big, immediately had a bad feeling when he heard Zheng Eryulong's voice. He knew very clearly that there was no way for Qin Jun's weapons to create such a big commotion.

This huge noise was definitely made by Daming's army.

"Damn it, this Chongzhen, if he had known about it, Yingxi would have killed him directly. At first, he wanted to keep this guy alive, so that the people of the Ming Dynasty could be more honest. I didn't expect this guy to add so much to Daqin now. trouble, damn it!"

After Hou Shen cursed angrily, he hurried back.

But what he saw was a scene of purgatory on earth.

After the Ming Dynasty was in Qin for so many years, explosives had already developed very advanced.

The grass shield is fireproof, but the armor worn by the soldiers cannot play the role of fireproof.

When the bomb exploded, the fuel inside spewed out and landed on the soldiers. Countless Daqin soldiers were set alight just like that.

In such a dense crowd, as long as one person is on fire, it is easy to run around because of being too frightened, causing the fire to spread to other companions.

Under the city in the north, there is now a sea of ​​flames.

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·?????????????????????

Those Qin troops who were ignited by the fire were completely in disarray, causing huge casualties to themselves.

Li Xin came to his senses. He was commanding with the other two deputy marshals and wanted to evacuate the army.

But at this moment of life and death, in this atmosphere of extreme panic, are their orders so effective?

Most of the soldiers couldn't hear the commands of Li Xin and others. All they could hear were the endless screams and the screams of the soldiers who were trampled and their bones were broken because of the chaos.

 …  

How could this be?An army of one million against a northern border with tens of thousands of people, it would be so embarrassing.

Although this was just a vanguard, Hou Shen never expected that the well-trained and powerful Qin army would be played like this.

The grass shield that cannot withstand the flames is now just a burden.

Those who wanted to escape for their lives threw their heavy objects on the ground, and the grass shield, the life-saving weapon just now, was also thrown on the ground as garbage at this moment.

There is no way, it is too much trouble to escape with such a thing, and my life is so important that I can't take care of so much.

But what they didn't know was that if they threw away the grass shield, the consequences would be even worse.

The most taboo thing in marching and fighting is self-disruption. No matter how many troops you have, no matter how powerful weapons you have, once you are in disarray, all soldiers will panic and run for their lives. It can only be a lamb at the slaughter.

At this moment, the fleeing Qin army did not have any weapons in their hands, and their life-saving armor was also thrown away. At this moment, they are the so-called lambs.

Chapter 470

When they were in a hurry, the Ming army on the city wall poked its head out again.

This time, the weapons in their hands became repeating crossbows.

Concubine Dongjun Yan once told Chongzhen that Qin State's current weapons and equipment are very good, especially their grass shields, which have amazing defensive power and have multiple functions.

Therefore, when attacking the city, Daming's army did not use any crossbow arrows, because they knew that it was a waste and would not have any effect.

But it's different now. Qin Jun can be described as throwing away his armor and armor.

They have now lost the most important life-saving means of their "Mo Hong", the crossbow arrows, which can play the greatest role at this moment.

On the city wall, there are about two hundred continuous crossbows. Although the power of each crossbow bolt of these continuous crossbows is not very great, the firing speed of these continuous crossbows is very fast, and the ammunition load is also very large.

In a short time, hundreds of crossbow arrows can be shot.

The power of crossbow bolts fired from a high position can be increased.

On the contrary, the Qin army was at a low place, and the power of the crossbow arrows they shot was reduced due to gravity, and the advantage of the terrain was revealed at this moment.

In addition to the advantages of terrain, the advantages of weather have also gradually emerged.

As the saying goes, go all out, then decline, and exhaust three, Qin Jun is now in such a state.

In the beginning, they were full of momentum and fighting spirit, and they wished they could solve the battle in minutes.

But now their high morale has been hit, and they are hung up and beaten by others time and time again. Every time they seem to win, they are punched hard by someone. Who can stand it a few times? ?

No, countless crossbow arrows shot at Qin Jun's northern city wall, and Qin Jun was hit hard again.

Although the power of these crossbows is not great, they are enough to penetrate armor, and the coverage area is extremely wide, and the shooting density is particularly high. It can be said that the fleeing Qin army had nowhere to escape, and almost all died in the Under the crossbow arrows of the Ming army.

"withdraw!"

Li Xin finally realized it, he finally understood that the Northern Territory is not something that they can win if they want to. Who is Ying Ziye, the most talented person in the Qin Kingdom.

His talent surpassed his father Qin Shihuang's by many times, and his force value was also the most powerful existence known in this world.

It is true that there are few people in the northern border. The undeveloped northern border is indeed a country that is easy to bully.

But now the king of the northern border is Ying Ziye, if he is there, the northern border will definitely not be so easy to break through.

Even with a million troops in hand, at this moment Li Xin is no longer as confident as before. Although there is no statistics on the number of casualties, a rough estimate shows that at least 2 people have died in this battle. In a charge without progress.

In Daqin, there are quite a few families that are no longer complete because of their own wrong decisions.

He is extremely guilty at this moment, and he is extremely guilty of Jiangdong's elders in Daqin.

Compared with Ying Ziye, he is really far behind.

Winning Ziye to attack the Xiongnu and the Northern Territory only required a small amount of troops, and they took all of them back without any loss. As for him, Li Xin, there were already so many troops before the official opening of the battlefield. casualties.

How will this battle continue?The strengths of the two sides may not be in the same dimension, but judging from this confrontation, it is very obvious who wins and who loses...  

After Li Xin gave the order, the horns and drums for retreat also began to sound. This time, the soldiers finally heard the order to retreat amidst the noise.

This also made the soldiers of Daqin subconsciously begin to retreat in an organized and orderly manner. The speed of retreat was much faster than before.

Even so, it is still impossible to retreat so densely and quickly, and many soldiers died on the way to retreat.

Emperor Chongzhen stood at the top of the city with a proud expression on his face. The grievances that had come over this period of time were finally vented.

The fly in the ointment is that Yingxi is not present, if Yingxi is present, he will feel more at ease seeing this scene.

"How about it, Marshal Li Xin, didn't you think we should surrender just now? Didn't you just want us to open the city gate and welcome you in? You can't even find the city gate in the north, how can we let us open it?" Surrender the city? Hey, I really want to do this, but you guys are too disappointing."

"If His Royal Highness knows that Chongzhen has surrendered to your capable Northern Expeditionary Army, what will be the face of Chongzhen~"

Chongzhen's complacent look made all the Qin soldiers extremely unhappy. Although Meng Tian didn't take part in the command, many of his soldiers from the Meng family army died under the city wall during the charge.

He can allow others to insult him, but he absolutely does not allow anyone to insult dead soldiers.

So, Meng Tian took out a big bow coldly, aimed at Emperor Chongzhen on the city wall, and wanted to kill him.

Chapter 471

Meng Tian is at the rear of the army, at least 300 meters away from the foot of the wall. Generally, this distance is already the limit of archery, let alone shoot the arrow on the wall of nearly 50 meters based on this distance. .

There are only a handful of people in this world who can do this, not to mention that in the age of Daming when the value of force was seriously declining, no one could do this feat.

Therefore, Chongzhen subconsciously thought that his position was safe, and he didn't notice that there was a hidden arrow aimed at his chest at this moment.

Meng Tian's arm strength is so exaggerated. He can break bows and arrows that ordinary people can't draw. The bow in his hand was tailor-made for him by Ying Zheng.

In the Meng family army, apart from his position as Meng Tian, ​​only his younger brother Meng Yi can barely use it.

At this moment, Meng Tian exposed 29's thick arms covered with veins in the snowstorm.

"General Meng Tian, ​​if you do this, will His Highness the Crown Prince be unhappy? If Chongzhen stood so firmly in the position of His Highness the Crown Prince, defending His Royal Highness against Daqin's attack, if he is shot and killed so easily here, the Crown Prince Will His Highness be very angry?"

Wang Ben said with some concern, from Chongzhen's tone, it was obvious that he was definitely Ying Ziye's dog leg, and he was also a very capable dog leg.

Killing him might really make Ying Ziye angry.

However, Meng Tian can't control so much now.

What he can see now is the tragic death of Daqin soldiers. For hundreds of years, Daqin has never suffered such a disadvantage in war.

The enemy didn't even have any hair, and if he touched one, there would have been so many casualties. If he didn't open a breakthrough as soon as possible, how could he have the face to go back to see Daqin's fathers and fellow villagers, how would he have the face to go to the Nine Springs to meet his elders? General Meng Ao meet?

"How can we care so much now? The morale of our army has been severely hit. If we don't do something to boost morale as soon as possible, this battle will be unnecessary!"

"If the task entrusted by His Majesty is not completed, the soldiers of Daqin and the people of Daqin will be affected by the war for a long time, and the quality of life of the people will be greatly reduced."

"What is the purpose of the late emperor's efforts? Isn't it to save the world from the suffering of war?"

After Meng Tian finished speaking, he let go of his tight right hand.

This tailor-made bow has great power. The moment Meng Tian let go of his hand, there was a piercing wind from the bowstring, which shows how terrifying the power contained in it is.

In addition, the arrow also broke through the wind very domineeringly, uttered a loud and clear cry, and headed towards Chongzhen.

It is true that Chongzhen has courage and brains, but the only thing he does not have is martial arts. His martial arts can be said to be very bad. In the barracks of Daqin, his martial arts are not even as good as a big soldier.

He didn't notice Meng Tian's arrow at all, and he was still looking at Qin Jun proudly on the city wall.

"Have it!"

Meng Tian is extremely sure about his arrow technique. Although the weather is not very good now, but it is snowing, it will not have a big impact on the accuracy of the arrow feathers.

His arrow has absolute certainty that it can hit Chongzhen's heart.

As for Li Xin, his self-confidence was aroused by the piercing arrow.

That's right, they are the great marshals of Daqin, why they were named marshals, isn't it because of their high martial arts?

They can easily do many things that ordinary soldiers can't do. Ordinary soldiers can't attack the wall, so what about their marshal?

They came not only to command the battle, but also to lead the charge and set an example.

Following the loud sound of arrows, Li Xin drew out his great sword.

Li Xin's big sword weighed a terrifying eighty catties. Although such a huge sword is very heavy, its power cannot be underestimated every time it is cut.

Li Xin drew out his big sword and jumped up from his horse.

In front of a master like Li Xin, the law of universal gravitation seemed to have no effect. Holding such a heavy sword, he could still fly into the air.

Chongzhen, who was still a little complacent, couldn't calm down when he saw this scene.

With Li Xin's aura, is he going to fly up to the wall and fight him to the death?

Although there are many soldiers of the Ming Dynasty by his side, he is very clear that the strength displayed by Li Xin is not something their ordinary soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can compete with.

Of course, no matter how good Li Xin's qinggong is, it's impossible for him to fly up directly.

He is not on the front line of the battlefield here, he has no choice but to fly directly up to such a high city wall in one breath, if he has this ability, he doesn't have to take such trouble.

He was at a distance of six to seventy meters from the foot of the city wall. He had to rush under the city wall before he could climb up the city wall with the help of light work.
