Chapter 25: The Moment of Dangerous City

Huang County Chief had a bad look and didn't see the two things clearly. However, after staying in a border town for so many years, he naturally knew what "thunderous artillery" was. When he heard it, his face suddenly turned pale.

"Booming the Blue" can be used to defend the city, and it is better to attack the city. The shells are powerful enough to blow up the city gate and collapse the city walls. Now there are more than 3,000 Tartar soldiers under the city. As long as they blow up the city gate, Jimingyi will definitely not be able to defend it, but they don't know where the Tartars got this kind of cannon.

It turned out that the Tatar soldiers, the chief general of Wulipu and Jimingyi, led his troops to break through Erlibanyi and burned and robbed the city. He heard that Boyan Mengke's son Xulie Boqi was killed by the Ming army, and immediately ordered his deputy general Zhu Lindada to lead his army to Jimingyi, vowing to massacre the entire city to avenge this.

He also knew that Jiming Post was much more difficult to fight than Erli and a half, so he led more than 1,000 people to advance to Jiming Post with the "Boom-Booming Artillery" received from Erli and a half, and just arrived at this time. He heard that the siege soldiers had suffered a thousand casualties, so he immediately ordered the army to retreat and bombard the county town with cannons.

Even though Jiang Bin was brave, he knew that the situation was hopeless at this moment, so he threw two curled swords on the ground and said to Huang County Magistrate: "Mr. Huang, abandon the city!"

Huang Qiyin's face was gray, and his long beard was trembling under his jaw and said, "Abandon the city? You and I have the responsibility to defend the territory. If you abandon the city and escape, how can you explain to the emperor? Huang would rather live and die with the city!"

Jiang Bin's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he roared at the county officials: "As soon as the city gate is broken, the Jiming Post will inevitably be lost. Will your life be ruined in vain? If you stop, you will suffer the chaos!" He turned around and shouted to the soldiers: "Mr. Min is awake? I want to report military information to Master Min!"

The soldier said tremblingly: "Mr. Min's fever has not subsided and has not yet woken up." Jiang Bin's teeth were chewed, and he was circling around the hall like a trapped beast. The officials looked at each other, and some of them were already showing horror, but no one dared to say the word "abandoned city first.

Yang Ling didn't know that it was so powerful. When he thought that he could not defend himself, he would retreat. Why bother to worry about the gains and losses of a city and a place? He would accumulate strength to make a comeback in the future. However, he didn't know that the word "constituency" was much more important to the ancients than life, so what they did sometimes seemed extremely stupid in modern times, but it was normal at that time.

He stepped forward and said to Huang County Magistrate: "Sir, since you know the ending, why not retreat quickly while the Tartars have not yet captured the city? Although the supplies are too late to take away, it is important to save everyone's lives. If you keep the green mountains, are you still afraid of not burning firewood?"

County Magistrate Huang was not good at scolding him loudly, but he waved his hand powerlessly and sighed: "Everyone of the Tartars is a strong cavalryman, and he can't escape the abandoned city at this time. If you continue to defend the city, you can still kill a few more Tartars."

Yang Ling said anxiously: "Since that's the case, we will continue to stay here and delay time. We will send several adults to organize the people to escape quickly from the north gate and immediately flee to the mountain after leaving the city. No matter how powerful the Tatars' cavalry is, they may not be able to chase and kill the people all over the mountains. Moreover, these Tatars are not able to seize the Ming Dynasty. They are just pretending to be robbers and robbing them. Once they enter the city, they will inevitably plunder the people's wealth and delay their itinerary."

The Huang County Chief's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, I'm confused." He immediately said to the gentry who had not had time to leave, "Zheng Zhuan Wang, you and Ma Yicheng, all the village chiefs, the security chiefs organize the people to withdraw from the north gate and immediately go out of the city and go up the mountain!"

The king said, "Sir, where are you?"

County Magistrate Huang gritted his teeth and said, "Although I am a scholar, I cannot kill the enemy with my sword, and I must live and die with the soldiers guarding the city!" Jiang Bin knew that although he was going to sacrifice his life for the city, he might not have the intention of surveillance and supervising the war. He laughed loudly when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and turned around and smiled at the disabled soldiers of less than 100 people, "Okay, I will pile up this place for more than 100 pounds. If you kill one more, you will earn one. I will return to my original position. I will never retreat. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"

County Magistrate Huang glanced at Yang Ling and said, "Nephew, take Lord Min with you and evacuate the city."

On the one hand, Yang Ling admired Master Huang's character, and on the other hand, he thought that even if he escaped, he had not had enough time to stay here. Although there was no such thing as paying attention to the family of the martyrs, if he died here in battle, how could the magistrate of Min County, and the Lord Wang Zhuan not take good care of his young mother?"

Thinking of this, he immediately said righteously: "No, I will stay here too, guard the city with Mr. Huang and his soldiers." The bookkeeper Wang took the task of evacuating the villagers, and felt much more relaxed. At this time, when he saw Yang Ling's behavior, he was ashamed. The scholarly spirit surged up and said immediately: "Eat your salary and cannot share your worries. I am ashamed. It is really a waste of reading the sages. Master Yang, please take your lord away, and I will stay there too."

Yang Ling also pointed at him to take care of Han Youniang in the future, so he was reluctant to let him die. He quickly bowed deeply to him and said, "The Chief Wang must be responsible for the safety of the people and the lives of Lord Min. The responsibility is heavy, so how can you sacrifice lightly? Take Lord Min away quickly, it will be too late. But my nephew has something to ask, and I hope my grandmother will take care of him in the future!"

The king was so moved that he burst into tears. Seeing that he was confessing to his nephew, he said, "Since that's the case, don't worry, but I will teach me that I will never let go of my trust." After that, he immediately asked someone to go upstairs and lift Lord Min down.

Ma Yicheng had already become timid. He was just an official secretary, and he had just come here and had no feelings for Jimingyi. He wanted to take his son and daughter immediately and escape immediately. Seeing this, he hurriedly stood at the door to direct the gentry and elders to leave immediately, preparing to evacuate the people and leave the city.

Yang Ling hurried to the entrance of the building, called Han Youniang and said, "Youniang, the city can no longer be defended. You immediately follow the king's clerk to protect Lord Min from the city and escape up the mountain."

Han Youniang said anxiously: "My husband, what about you?"

"I'll take the lead first, I'll go later," Yang Ling said casually.

Han Youniang looked at him suspiciously and said, "No, I will accompany you. If you want to leave, I will wait for you to leave."

Yang Ling was anxious and shouted sternly: "Why are you so confused? You don't listen to a word of your husband, do you want me to leave you now?"

The more he urged, the more Han Youniang thought that he had decided to sacrifice himself to the city. But he didn't know that his greatness was because of his selfish love. The little girl was originally stingy and never had stubbornness in front of him. At this time, she didn't care about the "three obediences and four virtues" and said with a stuttering on her neck: "I haven't committed seven examples, why can you give up on me?"

"You!" Yang Ling was so angry that he waved his hand to hit him. Han Youniang stood there and closed her eyes and did not dodge at all. Yang Ling raised her hand and saw her tender face. How could she continue to slap her?

Just then, there were two loud "boom, boom" sounds, and Jiang Bin shouted, "The Tartars are firing!" Yang Ling hugged Han Youniang without thinking, threw her to the ground, and pressed her on her body.

There was a rumbling sound, dust was flying, and a corner of the building was hit, and half of the building collapsed, and bricks and stones continued to fall. The gentry and officials in the house were hit by the splashed bricks and stones, and were more or less injured. Most of the wounded soldiers who were originally lying in the corner of the wall were buried alive in the rubble.

In fact, not only the group of stupid geese in the house, but even the soldiers outside do not know how to lie on the ground to avoid explosion damage to the greatest extent. We seem familiar now, and almost think that this is a very simple little thing that should be born with. In fact, I don’t know how many generations of people discovered it.

Han Youniang was thrown to the ground by him and pressed against herself. She was a little confused. She didn't understand what family law she had invented. After the explosion, she realized that he was afraid that she would be injured by the explosion. She quickly got up from Yang Ling's body. Seeing a pile of rubble hit Yang Ling, half of the window frame was pressed on her body. She was so scared that she quickly moved the window and asked nervously: "Honey, are you injured?"

At this moment, a gentleman who had already run to the steps of the lower city stood up from the base of the wall in a rustling manner and shouted anxiously: "Save people quickly, Ma Yicheng is buried below." At the same time, Jiang Bin, who was lying on the top of the city, suddenly burst into laughter: "His grandma, it's well fried, it's well fried, hahahaha."

Is Jiang Ba Yuan crazy? The dirty county magistrate Huang and others glared at him at the same time. They saw Jiang Ba Yuan barely and still laughing wildly under the city.

Everyone looked down at the city and saw the two "thunderous cannons" in the Tartars. One cannon flew more than two meters away from the original place. The cannon stand was facing up and hit the crowd, killing and injured. The other cannon was only one cannon barrel left, lying in a large black pit, and the wheel of the cannon was still rolling forward on the snow. After a while, it fell to the ground crookedly.

Everyone was surprised and didn't know what happened. Jiang Bachang laughed wildly and said, "The Tartars don't use our cannons, they don't use iron bolts to fix them. One cannon was bounced up, and the other cannon filled too much fire, it was a fucking explosion, hahaha."
