Ming Dynasty: Summoning game players at the beginning

Chapter 80 My Cyber ​​Brothers, My Regiment

"Enemy artillery fire!" The captain who received the news immediately repeated it loudly.

Huang Zilong and the others immediately squatted against the wall as a cannonball flew over their heads.

Another hit the main wall of the city, its powerful impact like a stone piercing through soft tofu, smashing the battlements on top. The broken stones flew everywhere, injuring several people.

Huang Zilong looked through the thick dust and fog at the place where the shell hit. A part of the wall was completely destroyed, just like a piece of biscuit was pinched off.

The rubble smashed the militiamen's limbs or embedded themselves in their skin and muscles, and there were injured people wailing all around them.

"Hurry up and rescue the wounded!" A player set an example by carrying a stretcher to transport the wounded down the wall.

He divided the militia into three levels according to the severity of their injuries, and hemostatic strips and boiling water came into play at this moment. The civilians who stayed in the city were also mobilized to rescue the wounded.

"Everyone get down!"

The player captain in charge of the wall shouted loudly, and the surrounding auxiliary soldiers and militia immediately followed his orders and lay down on the wall.

Only those players who were not afraid of death just squatted behind the parapets, and some even boldly stood behind the crossbows and cannons, howling and fighting back against the enemy.

The government army's cannons roared again. Although the hit rate of the bombardment was not high, the shells either hit the city wall and scraped off a few pieces of bricks and tiles, or passed through the city wall and entered the neighborhood and fell into a civilian's home.

"What the hell is this caliber of cannon? It's so fierce!" Huang Zilong screamed at the top of his lungs.

"It should be a Red Cannon! At least an 18-pounder, maybe even a 24-pounder!" In the chaotic and noisy battlefield, Wu Litou had to raise his voice and shout, "Some of the Red Cannons of the late Ming Dynasty were produced in Guangdong, and some were purchased from the Portuguese in Macau. % to % of the heavy artillery was deployed to the border troops, and the rest was given to these inland governors!"

"That's too powerful! If our new fortress wasn't built with specially designed low walls to block artillery fire, it might have been smashed to pieces by heavy artillery!"

"The generals who single-handedly assassinated the governor have performed a great deed. This buys us time to reinforce the fortress!"

"I don't believe it, let me taste the power of the bed crossbow!"

The "Breakthrough Expert" seemed to be energized. He strung the crossbow alone, and then the kind-hearted Liu Changsheng came over to help.

One of them turned the angle of the crossbow to aim at the crowd of government troops, and the other pulled the trigger.

With a whoosh, a crossbow arrow as thick as a spear was shot out, drawing a beautiful parabola.

The crossbow arrow that fell to the ground was like a bowling ball hitting pins, piercing several people at once. The surrounding government troops were frightened and scattered several steps. The details of this hit were immediately fed back.

"Great!"

"Let me shoot too, please!" Jiang Xiaobai on the side looked like a good-talking guy in a shooting game, asking his teammates to give up the vehicle so that he can play.

"We share happiness and difficulties together, come on, brothers!"

The coordinated operation of the three people made the crossbow's string faster. A "spear" filled the groove, and the second arrow was shot out with a whoosh.

"Ooooh! Hit!"

The place where the spear landed was like a stone falling into water, creating ripples. The three of them immediately stood up and cheered and howled.

Suddenly, a heavy artillery bullet flew over the fortress wall, and Huang Zilong and others who were squatting on the ground were safe and sound.

The three people standing suffered a tragedy. The impact of the artillery shells cut off the heads of two of them. Liu Changsheng, who was standing on the side, was blown away by the impact and his shoulder was broken. Only some muscles remained connecting his broken left arm to his body.

Liu Changsheng, who was blown far away, took a while to regain his senses, "Ahhh! I was hit!"

The relatively real pain made him feel both painful and happy.

"You idiot, turn down your pain sensitivity! Are you some kind of pain-prone alien?" Huang Zilong hurried over and gave emergency treatment to his teammate.

"Hahahaha——" Liu Changsheng laughed for no reason, "I'm still alive, I'm still alive and well!"

"You hurt our brothers! Damn you!" "Ajie" quickly took over the shooting position of the crossbow, and Zhang Xianzhong and Wu Litou on the side helped him to string and load arrows.

At the same time as the third crossbow arrow was fired, a horn sounded in the government army camp, penetrating the battlefield, and thunderous war drums also beat at this moment.

Perhaps realizing that several rounds of heavy artillery bombardment would not be enough to capture the county town, the bandits reinforced the walls. Finally, the government troops sent in infantry to attack the city.

Over ten thousand soldiers pressed forward in a black mass toward the county town. Heavy armored soldiers bearing shields advanced slowly, while auxiliary soldiers diligently pushed shield carts and battering rams. Hundreds of militiamen carrying ladders blended into the advancing ranks. From their perch, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei scanned the ground, watching the ant-like enemy soldiers approach like in a game of God.

Liu, Guan, and Zhang opened the voice command, "The enemy soldiers have entered the range, fire back!"

On the main wall, the player captain on the fortress immediately drew his sword and ordered the surrounding artillery groups.

Several small cannons suddenly sat back, making a deafening explosion, and several shells flew over the wall and fell into the crowd, leaving bloody marks.

"Archers! Gunners!"

The order from Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei was once again relayed to the militia through the captain. Arrows and lead bullets flew over the wall and rained down upon the government troops.

However, the government troops leading the charge not only held shields but also wore heavy armor. Even if ordinary arrows bypassed the shields, they would only add a few more arrows to the heavily armored soldiers' bodies.

The fierce government troops came to the foot of the city and formed a shield formation. The civilians who were carrying sandbags and ladders to climb the wall threw the props at the feet of the government troops and ran back.

The auxiliary soldiers picked up sandbags and threw them into the trenches filled with sharp stakes. From time to time, unlucky guys were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.

"Damn it! The enemy soldiers spotted stakes in our trenches."

"This enemy's intelligence is ten times stronger than in Mount & Blade 3. They even know siege tactics!"

As more and more sandbags were thrown into the trench, several avenues leading to the base of the wall were paved out, and ladders of reserved length were placed on the main wall and the fortress.

"The enemy soldiers are climbing up!"

The angle formed by the ladder itself and the base of the wall makes it very stable and it cannot be knocked over with a slight push.

The government troops, wearing heavy armor, advanced slowly, and the sunlight shining on the iron plates of their armor reflected a silvery-white light.

A hail of arrows whizzed down on the heads of the government troops, and the arrowheads hit the armor and helmets with a crisp tinkling sound. Even if the arrows pierced their flesh, or they were knocked to the ground by bullets and fell down with screams, the soldiers behind them would still continue to climb up.

"Smash the ladder! Don't let the enemy soldiers climb up!" The sound of arrows whistled overhead and the sound of artillery roared in the ears.

"Wang Tutu" threw away his bow and drew his sword, chopping hard at the ladder that was leaning against the wall. The blade pierced the wood and debris flew everywhere.

"Step aside!"

Suddenly, a shout came from behind Wang Tutu. It turned out that several players were rushing towards the ladder holding a pitchfork.

Several players worked together and pushed the ladder that several people had climbed up to the top away, forcing it to fall down. This caused several soldiers to fall backward along with the ladder. The soldier who was only one step away from the top fell into the unfilled sharp stakes with an unwilling roar.

"Pour the golden juice!"

With a call, the militiamen guarding the big pot seemed to wake up from a dream. They immediately worked together with their companions to lift the bracket next to the hot pot and tip the stinking iron pot out.

Several pots of dark brown boiling water were instantly poured over the heads of dozens or even hundreds of officers and soldiers.

The boiling water mixed with turbid matter penetrated the gaps in the armor, passed through the undergarment, and touched the tender skin.

The boiling hot golden juice tore through the tender skin and quickly penetrated into the bodies of the government soldiers with its scorching temperature.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

The soldiers who were doused with gold juice felt excruciating pain, as if all the pain nerves in their bodies were tortured by the scorching heat.

The stench and high temperature spread the death rapidly, and the originally swift offensive stagnated.

Huang Zilong drew his bow and shot an arrow, while his teammates around him were also fighting hard.

This scene of unity reminded him of the past. It was a Friday evening when it was pouring rain. He was sitting in front of his computer with fried chicken and ice cola at his side, and all his friends who often played games with him were online.

They then entered a "World War I shooting game", running and fighting with rifles in the battlefield amidst roaring artillery fire.

Yes! Right now, he's fighting alongside his cyber brothers!
The past and present moments overlapped completely, and Huang Zilong felt a shock like an electric shock running down his spine and straight to the back of his head.

Awesome! Awesome!
