When King Yin Ye heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, he was shocked at first, thinking that he had been exposed.
But what followed was a scream from above his head.
As someone who had led troops in battles for many years, King Yin Ye immediately recognized that this must be the screams of the Japanese after being shot by arrows.
"Hurry, brothers, move faster."
The speed of the soldiers under King Yin Ye was even more desperate than before.
Looking at Yang Xiao at this time, he once again put an arrow on the bowstring.
Wei Yi, who was standing aside, said with a smile: "Old Yang, what's going on with you? Why can you still make that Japanese woman make a sound? Can't you just shoot her in the head?"
Yang Xiao said: "The distance is so far and the light is not good. It's already very good to be able to shoot. Don't be picky. Come if you have the ability."
Wei Yi smiled and said, "Why should I come here now?"
"The Japanese are already alert. Let's let the soldiers cover and suppress them with arrows first to buy some time for King Yin Ye."
…
Arrows flew directly towards the top of Dongchuan City like rain. In the words of later generations, this was the so-called fire suppression, and this fire suppression did provide great help to King Yin Ye.
"Brothers, hurry up, hurry up..."
After the Ming army soldiers placed explosives under the city wall, they quickly evacuated the area.
The Japanese on the city wall had long discovered the intentions of the Ming army. Even the simple-minded Japanese could guess what the hundreds of Ming soldiers under the city were doing. However, although they were in a dominant position at the moment, they were suppressed by the Ming army's arrows.
Wei Yixiao shouted loudly: "Soldiers, don't worry about the arrows, and don't worry about whether you can see the Japanese on the top of the city clearly. Just shoot arrows. You must buy some time for General Yin. Don't let the Japanese get a breather. Otherwise, there are still hundreds of our soldiers under the city, and their lives are in your hands."
There is an east wind tonight, and with the help of the wind, the arrows all fly very far, and the suppression effect is naturally surprisingly good.
At this moment, Yang Xiao also lit an arrow and aimed it at Yin Yewang under the city: "General Yin, hurry up, we have to clear out the Japanese in the city before breakfast."
"If you delay this general's breakfast, I will never forgive you."
…
Yin Yewang ignored Yang Xiao at first, but after a moment, he shouted to Yang Xiao: "General Yang, shoot."
Several burning arrows, including Yang Xiao's, flew directly towards the place where the gunpowder was piled.
In an instant, a beam of fire shot straight into the sky, followed by a deafening explosion, and then what happened next was the shock wave mixed with smoke, dust and debris.
In an instant, the soldiers at the front of the Ming army camp were all shocked and fell to the ground, and their ears became temporarily deaf.
Duan Zihao, who was in the tunnel far away, only felt that the guards were a little shaken. Obviously, the shock wave after the explosion of the explosives was more obvious underground.
"Explode, explode, soldiers, we will capture the city today, we can't embarrass the Marshal, follow me and fight our way out."
…
When the explosion sounded, Inoue Xiong, who was sleeping in Dongchuan City, suddenly opened his eyes. When he heard the sound, he instinctively knew what the Ming army was going to do.
However, just when he was anxiously planning to go out to check the situation and stabilize the morale of the troops, he pulled the wounds on his shoulders and private parts in a hurry.
At this moment, Inoue Yu felt excruciating pain and broke out in cold sweat.
Looking at Sasaki again, Sasaki had clearly reached the critical moment, but the explosion brought him back to reality.
He didn't care about the beauty under him. He just quickly put on his clothes, stepped back and rushed out.
The beauty was also frightened to death by the explosion just now.
"General, General, where are you going? I'm afraid..."
She was just a woman, and Sasaki had no time to care about her at the moment. After Sasaki walked out of the room, he vaguely heard the sound of shouting and killing.
Although Sasaki was also a waste, he understood at this moment that the explosion just now must have been the Ming army bombing the city, and the shouting and killing at this moment must have been the Ming army starting to attack.
Although Sasaki had known for a long time that "this day would definitely come", even if this expected day really came, he would still have to do something.
Sasaki roared and called his personal guards, and then led them to the direction where the explosion came from.
…
The Ming army's tens of thousands of pounds of explosives directly blew down a city wall. This time was very different from the last time. This time, the Ming army blew a hole that was more than ten times as big as the wall.
Moreover, there was enough gunpowder, so even the rammed earth piled up inside the city wall collapsed on a large scale, so that even if it could still serve as a secondary defense, the effect was not great.
The Ming army outside the city was desperately charging into the city. The Japanese were obviously prepared. There were also many soldiers on duty in the city. Those Japanese soldiers were also trying their best to move closer to this place under the command of their respective generals. But what they didn't know was that at this moment, Duan Zihao was also leading hundreds of heavily armored soldiers to kill here.
Just as he said before the war, Duan Zihao had only one goal, which was to help the Ming army outside the city occupy the blown-open hole.
As long as two or three thousand people can enter the city, the morale of the Japanese army in the city will definitely be lost. At that time, the outcome of the matter can easily develop into a massacre on the ground.
…
"Kill, kill..."
The cries of killing had already resounded throughout the world. Duan Zihao was also a man of blood. After all, he was the one who had fought with Zhang Wuji with real swords and guns. He first led hundreds of heavily armored soldiers and quickly arrived at the location of the previous explosion.
At this moment, there are no less than two thousand Japanese soldiers blocking the way here. The gap is only a dozen feet long, but with nearly two thousand Japanese soldiers, if there were no special forces in the city, the Japanese might be able to block the gap with their few brave men.
…
The Japanese in the city were still relying on their few brave men to fight against the Ming army outside the city who wanted to break in, but the sudden shouts of killing from behind made them panic.
It was terrifying to think that hundreds of Ming soldiers holding long-handled axes suddenly appeared behind him, let alone the Japanese facing them directly.
Under the leadership of Duan Zihao, the hundreds of Ming soldiers armed with long-handled axes quickly killed and disrupted the Japanese troops at the gap in the city wall.
In just over half a quarter of an hour, the opening in the city wall was firmly occupied by the Ming army.
