Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 288: Capture Beiping City and capture Ouyang Lun alive! (Please subscribe!!)

Two hundred meters!

"Your Majesty, General Shi Hadiao and the others have successfully broken through the thunder array!!"

Seeing his men approaching Beiping City, Wang Baobao also became excited.

"good very good!"

"Bring the drum hammers, I will personally play the drums for Shi Ha Diao and the others!!"

"Yes!"

dong dong——

Wang Baobao waved the drum hammer with both hands and hit the war drum hard.

"Haha, the prairie warriors, the prince himself is beating the drums to cheer us up, come on!"

"Take Beiping City!"

"kill!"

The scene below the city finally shocked He Fang.

"General! The enemy is coming!"

Hearing the soldier's report, He Fang stretched, stood up from his chair, and yawned again, "Damn, these Beiyuan people are so useless! I've been sleeping on this wall for almost half a month. Only then did they destroy the mine array!"

After saying that, He Fang stuck his head out and looked down at the city.

"Isn't it still a few hundred meters away?"

"Look at how excited they are. Those who didn't know it thought they had captured the city of Beiping!"

"Come on!"

"General!"

He Fang waved lazily, "The big gunners in red are ready. When all the enemy's forward troops cross the minefield, they will fire directly. I am too lazy to direct. Just watch and fire. I will sleep for a while and call me after the fight." !”

"Yes!"

boom -

boom -

When Shi Hediao and his 10,000 forwards finally passed through the trap area and mine area, they were about to reach the foot of Peiping City.

The sky was filled with artillery shells.

The explosion directly knocked over ten thousand people, killing many and injuring others.

At this time, the Beiyuan soldiers could not hear Wang Baobao's war drums at all.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Seeing that something was wrong, Shi Hediao quickly issued a retreat order.

The Beiyuan soldiers retreated quickly. Some of them panicked and triggered landmines and traps. Only four or five hundred of the last 10,000 people were able to escape alive, and the eyes of these four or five hundred people were full of fear. I can't even go to the battlefield for playing time.

"My lord!"

Shi Hediao survived, his armor was blown to pieces and his whole body was burned. He knelt down in front of Wang Baobao with a 'pop' sound, "There is really no way to fight this battle!"

"Their firearms are too powerful! We can't rush through them at all!"

"Let's retreat!"

"Otherwise, when the reinforcements arrive tomorrow, we will be surrounded!"

Shi Hediao's cry caused the morale of the Beiyuan army to drop a lot instantly.

You must know that the Beiyuan army has been blocked here for fourteen days. It cost tens of thousands of people to come back, but they have not even touched the walls of Beiping City. Faced with the endless means of Beiping City, no one knows what will happen next. What kind of dangers are waiting for them!

They thought they could easily capture Beiping City after taking care of the traps and thunder formations, but the 'Red Cannon' just now completely shattered their thoughts.

Listening to Shi Hediao's words, Wang Baobao's face became more and more gloomy.

"Somebody come!"

"Shi He Diao was defeated before the battle and deceived the morale of the army. He was dragged down and executed!"

Soon, the two swordsmen pressed Shi Hediao down and "clicked" him away in front of hundreds of thousands of troops.

"Whoever dares to withdraw troops again, this is what will happen!"

"Beiping City is right in front of us. That was their red cannon just now. It is very powerful, but as far as I know, the price of this cannon is millions of taels of silver, and a cannon shell costs tens of thousands of taels of silver. They don’t have much at all!”

"And there are 300,000 of us, and it's absolutely impossible for the red cannon to kill us all!"

Just when Wang Baobao was lecturing loudly.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, I have received the latest news. The Ming Army's three-way reinforcements have become two-way reinforcements, one going to Shanxi and the other to Shanhaiguan!"

"Huh!?" Wang Baobao was stunned at first, then he was delighted, "So no one came to help Beiping City?"

"Yes!"

"Okay! Very good!" Wang Baobao said with a smile: "Warriors of the grassland, you heard it! Beiping City is now an isolated city, and no one is coming to save them!"

"We have enough time to take them down!"

"Hooho-"

"The Yuan army must win!"

Originally, the Beiyuan army was under pressure, but now that I heard that there were no reinforcements in Beiping City, the confidence I had lost suddenly came back!

"Pass this king's order!"

"Go back to camp today to reorganize. Starting tomorrow, I will clear the traps and thunder formations outside Peiping City little by little. When the traps and thunder formations are cleared and the whole army attacks, I would like to see how many red cannons they have. Can blast!"

"In addition, send ten strong men to me to shout to the city, saying that they have been abandoned by the Ming Dynasty and there will be no reinforcements at all. The only way to survive is to surrender as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

Peking City.

Chief Secretary's Yamen, inside the castle.

"Take it yourself! It's all one dragon, give money, give money!"

Ouyang Lun shouted excitedly.

Looking at the mahjong tiles that fell in front of Ouyang Lun, Princess Anqing, Tang Miaomiao, and Xu Miaoyun frowned and pouted in grievance.

"Husband, can't you just let us do it?"

"That's right, you've lost all our money!"

“Although mahjong is fun, it’s not fun to lose all the time!”

"I want to do it too! But who said I'm so lucky!" Ouyang Lun said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't have money. If I win later, you can just take off a piece of clothing! How about it?"

Just at this time.

"Sir, it's not good!"

"It's not good, my lord!"

He Fang ran in in panic.

Ouyang Lun said angrily: "Damn it, just a few days ago, you fell ill again!" "Sir, the Northern Yuan army outside the city shouted again, saying that the imperial court did not send reinforcements at all, and we were abandoned!"

He Fang was out of breath.

"That's it?" Ouyang Lun asked nonchalantly.

"Yes!" He Fang said anxiously: "Sir, if there are really no reinforcements coming, sooner or later our Beiping City will be attacked by the Beiyuan army!"

"Now that many people in the city have heard that there are no reinforcements, they are very panicked. Some people are even shouting to surrender!"

Hearing this, Ouyang Lun rolled his eyes and said angrily: "He Fang, you have been following me for so long, but you are still so stubborn. No wonder you have never been able to be a commander. Do you believe what the enemy says?"

"Uh" He Fang was stunned for a moment, but then he frowned and said: "Sir, that's what I said, but half a month is enough to get to Peiping from the capital, but now there is no movement outside the city. The key is the Beiyuan army. There is no panic at all, it is obvious that we have no reinforcements at all."

Ouyang Lun shook his head, "He Fang, He Fang, I'm really disappointed in you. Have you forgotten what I said?"

"Um" He Fang said awkwardly: "Sir, you have said many classic words, but I don't know which one you are referring to."

"Ahem, you have to rely on yourself in everything! That's right!" Ouyang Lun continued: "You are very incompetent as a city-defending general by handing over the lives of hundreds of thousands of people to unknown reinforcements and placing your hopes on others. !”

"Are the many means we prepared before just for good looks? In the past half month, traps and mines alone have prevented the Beiyuan army from touching our Beiping City. Even if they continue to attack, we only need to Keep coming up with measures to deal with it, what are you afraid of!"

"Besides, if others don't know the importance of Beiping City to the Ming Dynasty, doesn't the emperor know it? How could he not come to the rescue? I really don't understand what you are panicking about!"

"Sir, I. I was wrong! The general was a little anxious for a while!" After hearing Ouyang Lun's scolding, He Fang not only did not have any dissatisfaction, but instead smiled and complained.

"Yeah." Ouyang Lun nodded, "You must have been bored watching on the city wall for the past half month. In this case, you go to Zhou Bao and ask for a pair of mahjong and let him teach you. Then you call Xu Liang and Li Fuyuan and the others set up a card table on the city wall and give orders while playing mahjong!"

"Yes!"

that's it.

The Battle of Peking fell into a strange scene.

Under the city wall, the Beiyuan army of 300,000 people was divided into several groups, working day and night to clean up the surrounding traps and mine formations. On the city wall, except for the "red-coated gunners" who were on high alert, everyone else was extremely relaxed. He Fang, Xu Liang, Li Fuyuan and others played mahjong happily.

The originally panicked people saw that the adults were playing mahjong so calmly and leisurely, and their worries disappeared. Moreover, there were many mahjong parlors in the city, where people could gamble and enjoy themselves. Everyone was indulged in playing mahjong. Who has time to pay attention to the Beiyuan army outside the city?

"Eighty thousand! You think this Beiyuan army is really stubborn! They have been fighting for so long and are still reluctant to leave."

"Ten thousand! We from Beipingyuan are their capital, so we must be obsessed with it."

"Ten thousand hits, nine! It doesn't matter if they have obsessions. If they encounter our chief envoy, they can't even think of breaking through Peking!"

"Sanjo! Fighting outside the city and playing mahjong inside the city. This is the first time in my life that I have encountered this, but it feels really good."

"Hey, touch it yourself! I accepted it, and it's thanks to the government that we asked us to prepare more supplies. This is the benefit of preparing in advance."

"No more fighting. I plan to move some fallen rocks to the city wall and check the progress of the Beiyuan army. The Beiyuan army is not powerful! As a result, I have to play cards for half a day every day to kill time."

"I am coming too!"

The life of the people in Beiping City was also very simple. After eating every day, they would either brag and play cards, or move some defense supplies up the city wall. However, there were too many people who hesitated to move, and they couldn't even fit on the city wall, so the government could only restrict the people from moving.

After moving the things, the common people would look at the progress of the Beiyuan army on the city wall, curse a few words, and even shout "come on," of course with a sarcastic tone.

Faced with the humiliation of the soldiers and people in Beiping City, Wang Baobao was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. However, he still endured it and kept urging his men to deal with traps and minefields.

"You have all heard the taunts from the people in Beiping City! Keep your spirits up and clear these obstacles outside the city!"

"When these obstacles are cleared, that's the day we break through Beiping City!"

"Yes!"

Perhaps Wang Baobao's encouragement had an effect, or perhaps they couldn't stand the cynicism of the people on the city walls. The soldiers of the Beiyuan Army worked hard to clear traps and minefields.

Finally, another ten days have passed!

With the non-stop efforts of 300,000 Beiyuan troops day and night, all the traps and minefields outside Peiping City were finally cleared.

Wang Baobao and his army finally came to a distance of 500 meters from the Peking City Wall.

Clang——

Wang Baobao pulled out his sword and raised it high, "Warriors on the grassland, we will retake Dadu today! You may be killed by bombs, but don't be afraid. The enemy's shells are limited! As long as you are brave enough, you will be afraid of enemy!"

"Capture Beiping City and capture Ouyang Lun alive!"

"After capturing Beiping City, massacre the city for three days!"

After a month of torture, Wang Baobao had already lost his initial composure, and his eyes were red and bloodshot!

"kill!"

Following Wang Baobao's order, in addition to leaving 100,000 troops as reserves, the remaining Beiyuan army launched a full-scale attack on Beiping City!

Seeing the Beiyuan army launching a full-scale attack, He Fang turned over the mahjong table!

"What a shame! If Wang Baobao wants to fight him, then fight him!"

"Send my order to the general! All gunners are in position and fire!"

"Archers, falling rocks, rolling logs, and gold juice are ready!"

These things have been practiced many times, and the city wall quickly became busy, and everything was in order.

boom--

boom--

The red cannons on the walls of Peiping fired cannonballs.

boom -

boom -

Every time a shell falls, it will take away the lives of dozens of Beiyuan soldiers.

Although the Beiyuan soldiers were extremely afraid of the red cannon, they still rushed forward. After all, Wang Baobao had arranged a supervising team in the rear. If anyone deserted, he would be killed by the supervising team.

You may die if you continue to rush, but you will definitely die if you run away.

The Beiyuan army suffered heavy losses.

When Wang Baobao saw this situation, he felt a lot of pain and said almost madly: "Come on, keep rushing on for me, you must not stop!"

"I don't believe it. Until their artillery fire is used up, no one can stop me from taking Beiping!!"

Hundreds of thousands of people charged with great momentum. Dozens and hundreds of people died every second on the battlefield. The Beiyuan army charged like crazy, but the ruthless artillery fire firmly blocked them from the city wall!

Six whole days!

The sound of artillery fire on the walls of Peiping never stopped!

Outside the city wall, the original loess turned into charred black, and flesh, blood, and soil were mixed together. There were stumps and broken arms everywhere. The scene was extremely miserable and horrifying.

Ouyang Lun came to the city wall again.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but sigh, "These Beiyuan people are really cruel! They were blown up like this, but they haven't collapsed yet!"

"I appreciate Wang Baobao more and more. If we encounter such a hard nut, we will never choose to fight hard."

"Sir, in the past month of this war, the other side has lost at least 60,000 to 70,000 people, while we have only lost one person, all thanks to your good guidance, sir!" He Fang said excitedly.

"Looking at history, there is no other record like this for your Excellency!"

"My lord, this battle will definitely leave a mark in history!"

"Master is wise!"

The officials behind him also started to flatter Ouyang Lun.

After hearing these "flattering words", Ouyang Lun was still very happy and said with a smile: "Just average, third in the world!"

"Wait, why did He Fang lose another person?"
