please make me king

Chapter 748 Fighting hard at Runing City

The so-called thousand-jin gate is actually a vertically falling gate made of solid wood wrapped with iron sheets. It generally weighs more than one thousand catties, and some even weigh more than [-] catties.

Whether it is Runing hero Shen Wandeng or private salt dealer Liu Hongqi is not a magnificent sea, naturally they can't afford this heavy gate, but they are not helpless.

Since the jack gate is called a gate, it naturally has lifting equipment.

Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi are also heroes, when their own lives are at stake, they naturally would not accept their fate.

The two couldn't help discussing: "Now we are all in the urn, and we were accidentally caught in the urn."

"Why don't you and I, one lead the crowd to seize the gate of Wengcheng, and the other lead the crowd to open the Qianjin gate."

After the two discussed it, Liu Hongqi led his clan brothers Liu Hongchao, Liu Hongli, Liu Hongdao, Liu Hongjun and dozens of people to seize the gate of the Wengcheng;

There is a gate tower attached to the city tower in the Ming Dynasty, which is specially designed for the Qianjin gate.There are grooves and winches on the gate tower to facilitate the storage and lifting of the jack gate.

After Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi said goodbye, they hurriedly led people up to the tower, only to see more than ten soldiers guarding there.

He immediately rushed up, killed three people in a row, and the rest of the soldiers scattered, Shen Wandeng took the gate tower.

Immediately Shen Wandeng found two winches in total, one on the left and one on the right to hang the jack.

He divided the soldiers under his command into two waves and pushed the winch hard together.

But Shen Wandeng never expected that the jack is very heavy, and everyone tried their best, but they still didn't move.

At this time, Niu Jinxing, Guo Sanhai, and Sheng Zhiyou were also in a hurry around the city.

Accidents will inevitably happen on the battlefield. Although Niu Jinxing is well versed in Sun Wu's art of war, he is still qualified as a counselor; but if he is the commander-in-chief of an army, his shortcomings of resourcefulness and inexperience have been exposed.

How to do?Do you want to send people to bypass other city gates, or do you want to send people to forcibly board the city?

The enemy's situation is unknown, what if we detour to other city gates and return in vain?What if Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi were defeated and died if they forcibly ascended the city?
Niu Jinxing's forehead began to ooze sweat, and he had to pretend to be calm in order to stabilize Guo Sanhai and Sheng Zhiyou.

At this time, Guo Sanhai saw that Niu Jinxing hadn't ordered for a while, so he couldn't help asking anxiously: "Mr. Niu, the city gate guard is dead, what should we do?"

How to do?Salad!Obviously Niu Jinxing didn't know what to do.

But at this moment, he had no choice but to hold on and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, the military division has its own plan, just wait a moment!"

"Wait, wait, how long do we have to wait? If we wait any longer, Liu Hongqi and Shen Wandeng will die, but do we still want this Runing City?" Guo Sanhai complained after hearing the words.

Niu Jinxing was about to explain a few words to this stupid man, but suddenly there were several shouts from the tower.

Everyone listened carefully, it was the voice of Runing hero Shen Wandeng.

He shouted: "Mr. Niu, we have captured the gate of the city. However, the gate is too heavy to open at all. What should we do?"

Niu Jinxing couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard that, and quickly ordered to Guo Sanhai: "I'm here, leader, please quickly lead more than a hundred people to climb the tower, open the thousand-jin gate, and let the rebels enter the city!"

After confirming that Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi in the city were not wiped out by the officers and soldiers, and even occupied the city tower, Niu Jinxing breathed a sigh of relief, and hastily made a decision.

"This... in the middle of the night, how can we climb the city wall?" Niu Jinxing asked Guo Sanhai in a bit of a dilemma.

"Find some ropes first, and climb up!" The rebel army had no time to prepare the climbing equipment, and Niu Jinxing didn't have a good idea.

He had no choice but to come up with an idea, regardless of whether it would work or not.

Fortunately, in the end Shen Wandeng found two spare nooses in the city, and threw one down, hanging some soldiers.

After a lot of difficulty, all the people pushed the winch and hoisted up the Qianjin gate, and the rebel army was able to enter the city.

It's just that it has been delayed for a long time.The city of Runing got the news that the rebel army was attacking the city early, so they organized people to fight for the city tower in turn.

Liu Hongqi's men were few, and he fought dozens of times with the officers and soldiers, suffered heavy injuries, and had seven wounds on his body.

He had no choice but to abandon the gate of the urn city and retreat to the top of the tower, so the whole urn city became occupied by rebels and officers and soldiers.

It's just that there is no ladder to climb the city in the Wengcheng, and the rebel army occupying the outer city gate is of no importance. The battle between the two sides is the Qianjin gate on the gate tower.

If the rebels could break through the gate of the Wengcheng before the officers and soldiers seized the Qianjin gate, then the entire Runing City would be infinitely defensible; There is no place to die.

When meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins. Liu Hongqi and Shen Wandeng were originally courageous and ruthless people, and even in desperate situations, they could not help breaking out their will to fight to the death.

In Zhang Shun's previous life, the two who were supposed to kill each other couldn't help looking at each other and said with a smile: "Big man, you can't eat with five tripods, but cook with five tripods. If you die today, you can't be underestimated!"

Immediately, the two led more than ten people to guard the stairs to prevent the officers and soldiers from seizing the Qianjin gate.

Niu Jinxing saw it below, how could he not know that the situation was urgent?
He hastily issued an order to Guo Sanhai: "Break through Runing City in one fell swoop, and eat hot and spicy food, just today."

"If you can seize the gate of the Urn City in time, you will have endless enjoyment of gold, silver and treasures, otherwise, it will not be a pity to kill and exterminate the nine clans!"

Guo Sanhai heard the words and couldn't help but solemnly responded: "Sir, don't worry, even if the tower is demolished, Guo will definitely enter the city."

Seeing Guo Sanhai's answer, Niu Jinxing breathed a sigh of relief.These people are all mobs, if they can't be coerced and lured to work hard, I'm afraid they would have dispersed in a hurry.

He quickly promised: "General Guo, don't worry, but if you take this city gate, you will have a commander-in-chief!"

"Is this true?" Guo Sanhai couldn't help being overjoyed, he was willing to sacrifice his life this time, but for the wealthy and beauties of the Chongwang Mansion in Runing City.

As the saying goes: "Man dies for money, and birds die for food", but it is nothing.Unexpectedly, there would be such a surprise, with their own strength, Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi could not help but be dissatisfied.

Guo Sanhai happily took the order, and at this time Niu Jinxing said to Sheng Zhiyou: "Brother, I can't trust everyone else. You are the only one who is honest. Please pass the rope as soon as possible and climb to the top of the tower to help They help."

"If you can defend the city tower without losing it, you won't lose your position as commander-in-chief!"

Sheng Zhiyou has been following Niu Jinxing for a long time, and seeing that he finally has a place to use his skills, he couldn't help but respond a little wretchedly: "I can't believe the position of the commander-in-chief, I just want to take down Runing City and let me enter the Chongwang Mansion If I choose two wives, I will be satisfied."

"See how promising you are, that's enough, I'll do it!" Niu Jinxing said with a chuckle.

So Sheng Zhiyou arranged fifty people to guard Niu Jinxing, and he personally led the people to climb up the gate tower, and assisted Shen Wandeng and Liu Hongqi to guard the gate tower.

Fortunately, there are many night blindness in this era, and the rebel army can barely hold on.

Everyone fought hard until dawn, but no one was there. However, they lost two or three hundred elites for no reason.

Seeing that the sky was already dark, there were still not enough rebels who climbed to the top of the tower.

Niu Jinxing couldn't help being frightened. The protection of the night is no longer there. The officers and soldiers are about to take advantage of the advantages of firearms and numbers to slowly capture the gate tower. What can they do?
It's too late, but it's fast.In a short moment, it seems like a thousand years have passed.

He only heard the sound of horseshoes shaking the mountains, Niu Jinxing looked back, and saw a black mass of cavalry, carrying wolf smoke, billowing.

"Officers and soldiers!" The rebel army couldn't help being terrified, and they threw away their helmets and armors, turned and fled.

It turned out that the mob under Guo Sanhai's command could not stand such a fierce battle long ago, and the cavalry galloping from a distance became the last straw that broke the camel's camel.

"No!" Niu Jinxing looked desperately at Guo Sanhai's rebel army swarming out of the city gate, scrambling to escape to the outside.

Not long after, Guo Sanhai also ran out, shouting: "Mr. Niu, run quickly! The reinforcements from the officers and soldiers have arrived, if you are later, you will be hacked to pieces!"

Immediately, Guo Sanhai couldn't help but order the soldiers to set up Niu Jinxing and run outside.

It didn't matter if the rebels ran away, the officers and soldiers followed immediately, sticking behind the rebels, vowing to kill them all, and they never showed any mercy.

The two sides chased and fled, and in an instant they opened a distance from Runing City.

In just this short distance, I don't know how many rebel soldiers died on the spot, and the corpses were scattered outside the gate of Runing City, countless.

At this moment, Liu Hongqi, Shen Wandeng, and Sheng Zhiyou, who were isolated on the tower, had long been in the mood to live or die. They only hated their parents for giving him two missing legs.

Seeing that the rebel army suffered heavy losses, but the house was leaking and it was raining all night, the cavalry turned around and rushed over.

"It's over, it's over!" Guo Sanhai looked desperately at the cavalry rushing over like a landslide, and couldn't help but close his eyes and cursed at Niu Jinxing: "Without you, a thief, how could Guo be here today?" Kind of place!"

Niu Jinxing smiled wryly, and was about to defend himself.Unexpectedly, the cavalry suddenly split into two parts, one on the left and one on the right, and directly inserted into the formation of officers and soldiers chasing behind them.

Niu Jinxing was stunned for a moment, then he said happily: "What nonsense did General Guo say, this is because the reinforcements from the rebel army came!"
