Ming Dynasty: The army is forcing the palace, you say that Lao Zhu faked his death

Zhao Long felt cold all over as soon as he imagined that scene.

Fortunately, none of this will happen, and he is now in Prince Ning's camp.

Even the people on Zhao Long's side were so surprised, let alone Zhu Di and the generals under his command.

They saw the soldiers on Zhu Quan's side pushing the square fort that was half a man high, continuing to advance toward them, and even pointing the fort at them.

My heart is in my throat!

No way!

Aren't these all going to be launched at them?!

Although they kept praying that things were not as they imagined.

However, God did not fulfill his wishes.

Those square forts were really aimed at the city wall where they were located.

The soldiers began to carry the cannonballs and load them into the barrel.

At this time, the generals on the city wall panicked and looked at Zhu Di.

"Your Highness, what should we do? Once the opponent fires, the city wall will inevitably be unable to be defended!"

"Your Highness, how about we give up Peiping and escape as soon as possible!"

"No, Your Highness, we should take the initiative! Destroy the opponent's fort!"

Everyone held their own opinions and had their own ideas.

But at this critical moment, no matter what they did, it was already too late.

Zhu Di was confused and his mind was in chaos when he heard what everyone said.

He knew what he should do at this moment. He made a decision.

But his brain was rusty and he couldn't think of any solution.

There was only one image lingering in his mind.

That was the scene where Zhu Quan's large number of cavalry rushed towards him.

That image was his life-long memory. Nightmare.

It was also a scene that he did not want to experience a second time no matter what.

So, Zhu Di murmured:"No, we can't attack! No matter what happens, don't attack!"

Zhu Di was really frightened by Zhu Quan's cavalry.

He had formed an irreversible idea in his mind.

That is, he must not confront Zhu Quan's army head-on.

Otherwise, his army will only be destroyed!

Those generals who followed Zhu Di to Yingtian all understood the bitterness contained in Zhu Di's words.

But those generals who had been guarding Peiping and had never been out did not understand the heaviness contained in these words.

They just wanted to continue to fight. At that time, I suddenly heard the huge explosion sound coming from under the city wall!

The sound was earth-shattering!

The entire city wall made a rumbling sound!

The magnitude of the vibration was much greater than before!

Just now, I could barely hold on and stand still. The general was completely unable to support him now. He could only squat or lie on the ground to protect his vital points!

No one thought that the thick city wall that had been specially reinforced had even been poured with a layer of cold water. A city wall covered with a thick layer of ice can be so vulnerable!

You know, before this, basically all the generals believed that this wall could be sustained for a period of time, and it was entirely possible that the opponent could not attack it. Oh!

Who would have thought that in the face of ruthless cannonballs, the city walls would be blown away!

Those city walls lying on the ground even doubted their lives.

Aren't they here to defend the city?

What are they doing lying here now?

Then The shaking lasted for who knows how long, and suddenly everyone heard a high-pitched and desperate cry!

"not good! The city wall collapsed!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked towards the place where the sound was coming from.

They saw that a big hole had collapsed on the west side of the city wall under the continuous bombardment!

Then, like a chain reaction, many city walls collapsed. Collapses continued one after another!

Many soldiers did not expect that the city wall they relied on for survival would suddenly collapse at this time.

Many people fell directly when the city wall collapsed!

On such a high city wall, as long as it fell Falling down would be basically the same as death.

Whether it was the soldiers who fell or the soldiers who were about to fall, they all screamed out of fear, and then there was the sound of human bodies falling heavily to the ground.

The ground was full of broken bones and flesh, and the thick bloody air spread.

The generals looked at this scene and felt as if they were in hell!

The screams continued until finally, near the collapsed city wall, No one dared to get close anymore.

At this time, whether it was the general who just said he would not be able to get out, or the general who wanted to take the initiative.

At this moment, they did not know what to say.

Continue to defend, on the city wall It is already impossible when there is obvious collapse.

Taking the initiative?

Are you kidding!

Those square forts can even penetrate the city wall, let alone their mortal bodies?

I am afraid that if they are hit, they will be Exploded to pieces!

Generals can understand this truth, but how could those soldiers who were about to go into battle not understand it?

They saw that their comrades were either blown to pieces in an instant, or were turned into flesh due to the collapse of the city wall. Mu was immediately frightened out of his wits!

The people on King Yan's side clearly told them that as long as they guarded the city gate, they could win.

But the reality was clearly different!

The opponent's artillery fire was stronger than anything they had seen before. Much more terrifying!

The most helpless thing is that the range of the opponent's artillery fire is farther than the range of the only few cannons on their side!

In other words, even if they can't hit the other party, the other party can easily hit them!

How can they still fight? What

's more, the scary thing is that the fort on the opposite side looks small, and the cannonballs are much smaller than those on their side, but the power is far beyond their side!

Even the opposite side can use it at once Twelve shells were fired, so that they did not dare to show their heads. As long as they showed their heads, it would be death!

In the face of this situation with no hope of victory, how could the soldiers think about defending the city?

One by one, they abandoned their own Weapons, regardless of the shouts of the officers behind them, they tried their best to escape. They could run anywhere, as long as they could stay away from this battlefield, they could do anything!

Seeing the soldiers abandoning their armor and retreating one after another, the generals were anxious He had to shout:"Everyone stop! Deserters will be killed without mercy!" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Deserters will be killed without mercy! Everyone, stop!"

Although the generals shouted loudly, how could the soldiers controlled by fear listen to their words? They would all die anyway.

Compared to being blown to death or falling to death, they would rather be killed by swords. Hack them to death!

At least they still have a certain possibility of escaping! []

So, when the soldiers heard the generals’ threatening voices, they did not stop, but ran faster!

At this time, no matter what Any general realizes that the situation is over.

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of him, Zhu Di has strong self-doubt in his heart.

From the beginning, why did he think that he had a chance of winning against King Ning?

No matter it was The advanced firecrackers and the powerful cavalry were all powerful enemies that he had not expected. At this time, Zhu Di suddenly thought of something.

He remembered that they were going to attack Yingtian. At that time, he saw that the city wall outside Yingtian Mansion was full of holes.

At that time, he thought it was caused by a hard battle between King Ning and the defenders of Yingtian Mansion.

Now it seems that it is not evidence of a hard battle at all!

On the contrary, that This is strong proof that King Ning brought out artillery to bombard Ying Tiandu!

In other words, as early as when he attacked Yingtian Mansion, King Ning had brought out such terrifying weapons as artillery!

The scary thing is that these people are actually starting a war He knew nothing about Prince Ning’s situation before! He still wanted to defend Beiping City!

Now it’s better, he was about to lose completely!

Maybe he should have followed Wang Cong’s advice from the beginning.

At least after losing, he still He could save his life.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di felt infinite regret in his heart.

But now regret is of no use. What matters is what he should do next.

At the moment of life and death, Zhu Di realized that no matter it was the throne or anything Nothing else is as important as his own life.

Zhu Di immediately ordered his generals:"Everyone, guard the city gate! Just fight! No retreat!"

After that, Zhu Di was about to go down to the tower.

Seeing Zhu Di's behavior, the generals couldn't help but curiously asked:"Your Highness, what are you going to do now? Zhu

Di tried his best to calm down and said,"You guys fight now. I will fetch my beloved horse. Later, I will lead my troops out of the city to fight to the death with King Ning!""

The generals were excited by Zhu Di's words and responded one after another.

Some even came forward and said:"The last general is willing to go with His Highness! Zhu

Di waved his hands and said:"No need, I will come as soon as I go, you continue to resist here.""

With that said, he hurried away without caring about anything else.

Zhang Cong stood among the generals, sighed and said,"King Yan is about to escape."

When other generals heard Zhang Cong's words, they couldn't help but glared:"What the hell are you talking about?" Didn't the prince say that he was going to get his beloved horse and fight to the death with Prince Ning later? A sarcastic smile appeared on Zhang

Cong's face:"If you really just want to get your favorite horse, it's enough to send a pawn there. Why does the prince need to go there in person?""

When the generals heard this, they immediately started to beat up in their hearts.

You're right!

Who can't do this small matter of getting a horse? Does the prince have to do it himself?

Besides, the prince said he wanted them to stay here and continue to resist.

But how could they stop it?

They saw the shell flying directly towards them and then exploded. They were not gods, so what else could they do?

Thinking of this, the faces of the generals showed a bit of surprise and uncertainty.

At this time, Zhang Cong suggested :"Even the prince is about to escape, how can we hold on? It would be better to surrender as soon as possible."

This time, no general immediately refuted Zhang Cong.

Everyone was even considering the feasibility of this proposal.

They had already heard that Mu Chun and Zhao Long under King Ning were both demoted generals.

King Ning accepted After they surrendered, they loved him even more.

If they surrendered, not only could they avoid their own death, but they might also have a good future. Why not?

In the face of the road of certain death, not many people are willing It's a dark road.

Especially when the master they were loyal to, King Yan, has run away.

So why should they remain loyal?

Everyone began to test the feasibility of Zhang Cong's proposal.

Zhang Cong saw everyone moved. , immediately patted the soldiers to get white cloth to make a white flag, planning to hang it on the city wall as a sign of surrender.

While they were discussing, the soldiers on Zhu Quan's side had already loaded their artillery shells.

Since Zhu Quan was not in a hurry to attack City, but wanted to take this opportunity to let the soldiers experience how to use rocket launchers.

Therefore, the orders given to the soldiers were to fire at the city wall to train their accuracy.

The soldiers were not willing to miss this rare test of the cannon. Given the opportunity, they all volunteered to test the cannon.

Since the aiming difficulty was relatively low, Zhu Quan saw that their direction was correct, so he approved the soldiers to fire.

One of the soldiers was not familiar with the height of the fort, so he directly lowered the barrel of the cannon. , ignited and fired.

The cannon that was originally supposed to be aimed at the city wall was blasted directly towards the city gate!

Only a few loud"rumblings" were heard, and 12 shells hit the city wall of Peiping!

The city gate immediately hit the city wall. Not to mention the shattering of the city gate, the fragments of the blown city gate flew everywhere!

One of the big rocks that was blown away flew directly towards the King of Yan, Zhu Di, who was about to leave on horseback in the city!

Zhu Di, who was focused on escaping, only heard With a whistling wind and the exclamations of the people around him, he was hit by the huge boulder flying down from the sky!

The boulder, which was a foot wide, smashed Zhu Di and his horse into a puddle of flesh and blood on the spot!.
