For Luo Xin, after thinking about it for a while, there is only one way, that is, after withstood the siege of the prairie coalition forces, attack the camp at night today, attack the prairie camp, and prevent the prairie coalition forces from bypassing the capital tomorrow , the time and opportunity to go deep into the hinterland of Ming Dynasty.

Although this decision has great risks, it also has great opportunities.

Because today's bloody battle will exhaust the strength of both sides, Luo Xin believes that after a while, if the siege engine completely blows down the barbed wire fence at the top of the city, Huang Taiji will not send only those 7000 people to attack the city. The troops were thrown in.As long as the Ming soldiers can withstand the crazy attack of the grassland coalition forces and persist until sunset, the physical strength and morale of the grassland coalition forces will definitely drop significantly.

but……

Luo Xin is different here!

Don't forget that there is still an army hidden on Luo Xin's side, which is the Shenshu camp of eight thousand cavalry.No matter how fierce the team was, Luo Xin didn't even think about letting the Shenshu camp defend the city, because he knew that the [-] cavalry was his only chance to finally defeat Huang Taiji.

This is a fresh army that has rested for more than ten days, while Huang Taiji's side is an exhausted army that has exhausted its physical strength and morale.

not to mention……

Luo Xin has prepared [-] thunderbolts for Shenshu Camp.

With thunderbolts, Luo Xin dared to lead 2000 people to kick Alatan Khan's 20 company battalion. Now there are [-] cavalry in the Shenshu camp. After this battle, I am afraid that Huang Taiji's grassland coalition army will be less than [-]. ?
So this plan has a great chance of success.

However, once it fails, it must be fighting alone with 8000 people, because at that time the gate of the capital cannot be opened, and maybe the [-] cavalry will be wiped out.

"boom……"

A huge boulder rose into the air, and this time it hit the barbed wire fence heavily. After the siege vehicle corrected its height many times, it finally threw the boulder onto the barbed wire fence.Only in this round of attacks, a large area of ​​barbed wire was destroyed.All the generals looked tense.

"Kill!" The grassland coalition forces on the opposite side uttered a neat and frantic shout.

"boom……"

The moment after the siege engine outside the city threw the boulder into the barbed wire, a siege engine outside the city was knocked down by the catapult inside the city.The Ming soldiers in the city couldn't help cheering.

"Boom boom boom..."

The siege engines outside the city kept smashing huge boulders on the barbed wire fence at the top of the city. The barbed wire fence was blasted out one by one, and then completely torn.

The catapult soldiers in the city also became anxious, constantly correcting their direction and height, and continuously bombarded the siege vehicles.

Finally, the last siege engine outside the city was knocked down.However, the barbed wire fence on the top of Beicheng City was also completely destroyed.

outside the city.

Huang Taiji drew out the scimitar, raised it towards the sky, and then pointed in the direction of the capital.

"kill……"

"kill……"

The prairie coalition forces charged towards the city wall.There are still [-] cavalry riding around under the city wall, constantly releasing arrows towards the city.The prairie coalition army that retreated just now ran towards the city wall frantically with red eyes.The [-] prairie coalition troops who had been standing behind Huang Taiji also rushed towards the city wall.This time Huang Taiji put all his eggs in one basket, and more than [-] soldiers launched a frenzied attack on the city.

"Catapult, throw fire oil cans!"

"Calbista soldiers, suppress the archery tower!"

"Fifth Army Battalion, Shenji Battalion, go to the top of the city to fight."

"Auxiliary soldiers, continue to put out the fire!"

Luo Xin shouted hoarsely, and the catapult immediately began to load the fire oil tank into the tipping bucket, and the ballista soldiers continued to oppress the arrow tower.It's just that the firing speed of the crossbow arrows is too slow, and the pressure on the arrow tower is limited. Fortunately, there are not many people standing on the arrow tower, which makes the crossbow arrows suppress the arrow tower to a certain extent.

The soldiers of the Fifth Army Battalion and the Shenji Battalion, under the protection of the shield bearers, quickly came to the top of the city and took their positions.

Archers in place!
The musketeers are in place!
The soldiers who threw the rolling logs and rocks took their positions.

Pairs of eyes looked towards the prairie coalition forces below the city...

"Bang bang bang..."

With the sound of a series of hammers hitting, countless kerosene tanks rose into the sky and crossed the sky. Countless kerosene tanks collided and shattered in the air. The kerosene tanks fell from the sky like rain, and more kerosene tanks It fell on the shield raised by the coalition army on the grassland, or fell on the ground, the earthen pot shattered, and the fire oil flowed out.

Without Huang Taiji's order, all the grassland coalition forces turned around and ran away.It is faster than when it came.In the same way, the Ming archers on the top of the city did not need Luo Xin to issue orders, and the rockets shot out from the city.

"boom……"

Another sea of ​​flames was formed under the city, and the prairie coalition army uttered shrill and desperate screams. The prairie coalition army, which was doused in kerosene, had almost turned into a burning man at this time, rolling all over the ground, and the air began to fill with The smell of barbecue.

Luo Xin on the top of the city let out a sigh of relief. With this round of fire oil tanks, he could burn some prairie coalition forces to death and delay for some time. As long as it was dusk, Huang Taiji would retreat.

"And are they all fuel tanks?" Luo Xin turned his head and asked.

Immediately, a quartermaster replied: "You can still throw two rounds."

Luo Xin frowned slightly. He could only throw two rounds, but he couldn't delay until dusk. After a little calculation, if the two rounds of fire oil tanks were thrown away, it would be less than half an hour before dusk. It will be the final battle, a battle to the death.

When the fire on the ground outside the city began to lighten, before it was completely extinguished, the prairie coalition army rushed towards the city wall again under Huang Taiji's order.The prairie coalition army seemed to have lost their vigor, and they stopped shouting to kill, and just ran forward with their heads muffled, while the Ming soldiers on the top of the city also silently looked at the prairie coalition army below the city, and there was silence above and below the city , the atmosphere seemed very depressing.At this time, the catapult had already loaded the fuel tank, and was waiting for Luo Xin's order.

When the Prairie Allied Forces entered the range, Luo Xin shouted sharply:

"put!"

Luo Xin's sound resounded from the top of the city, and the prairie coalition forces stopped suddenly, stopped and looked up at the city wall, and heard the sound of "bang bang bang" next to their ears, and then they I saw countless fire oil tanks rising from the city, flying across the sky, and falling towards the coalition forces on the grassland.

Those prairie allied forces immediately turned around and ran back, but there were still some prairie allied forces lost in the sea of ​​flames, screaming shrill and desperate.

The fire caused by the second round of fire oil tanks began to extinguish, and the prairie coalition forces, under Huang Taiji's order, ran towards the city wall again.Still running in silence, there was no other sound except footsteps.Until Luo Xin's shout came from the top of the wall:
"put!"

It was too hot, and I was wet when I just returned to the inn.Turn on the air conditioner, it's much cooler.
