Rise From the Humble

Soon, just when Zhu Ping'an commanded the young and strong people to send the villagers down the city wall, the Japanese pirates' feather arrows whizzed up the city wall.

"Swish swish"

The sky-blocking arrows pierced the air, exuding the sound of death, covering the city wall like a violent storm. Although the city was covered by city walls, many casualties were inevitable.

"The defensive equipment on the city has been exhausted. Don't miss this opportunity. Don't give the city any chance to breathe! This time, eight more siege ladders were built quickly. Everyone, they all pressed up. If there is no siege ladder, they will pile up. Human ladder! We must capture the small town of Jingnan! Anyone who dares to cower will die!"

The Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro was unwilling to fail. He raised his Japanese sword and roared and ordered the Japanese pirates to attack the city again. He believed that the last wave of siege failed because there were too few Japanese pirates who attacked the city wall. As a result, the two-legged sheep on the wall had the advantage of numbers to drive down the Japanese pirates who were like wolves and tigers under his command. So this time he learned a lesson and not only In a hurry, eight more siege ladders were built, and the Japanese pirates were ordered to use human ladders to attack the city.

Under the roar of Heihachiro and under the cover of the flying arrows, the Japanese set up siege ladders, set up human ladders, threw flying claws and ropes. They used all kinds of siege methods, densely packed, attacking the city like locusts.

"The Japanese pirates are crazy!"

Seeing the Japanese pirates attacking the city as densely as locusts, everyone in the city took a deep breath.

"Haha, the Japanese pirates think that we have exhausted all the defensive equipment, so we will give them a surprise!"

Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth, clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and shouted to everyone.

"Hahahaha, what the county magistrate said is to give him a surprise! Make it unforgettable for them!"

"Give him a surprise!"

Zhu Ping'an's joking words were a good way to lighten the tense atmosphere on the city wall. People laughed and geared up, preparing to surprise the Japanese pirates.

"Smash!"

When the Japanese pirates were halfway up, Zhu Pingan shouted and took the lead in throwing down a stone.

Then stones, water jars, millstones and other heavy objects were smashed down, blocking out the sky and the sun, and golden juice poured down.

"Damn it, are there no defensive weapons on the city? Why the hell are there more than last time?!"

"Heihachiro, I'm going to fuck Ni Mamo!"

"Help!"

The Japanese pirates did not expect that there were so many defensive utensils on the city. They were densely packed like locusts attacking the city, and they were stunned when they raised their heads and covered their faces with heavy objects that blocked the sky and sun. They cried for their fathers and mothers and screamed, and they were all dead and injured.

"Quick, move everything up."

When the battle started on the city, the people below the city continued to carry stones, door panels and other heavy objects to the city wall. The young and strong people on the city supported them and attached the defensive utensils supplemented by the people to the city wall. to the front line.

Therefore, the huge rocks, logs and other heavy objects that fell on the city did not break. The Japanese pirates who attacked the city seemed to be massacred, with heavy casualties.

"idiot!"

When the Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro saw this scene, he gritted his teeth in anger and his eyes were filled with hatred. He waved his Japanese sword and chopped down a lagging Japanese pirate. He screamed ferociously to supervise the battle, "Attack up, attack up!"

Under the bloody supervision of Heihachiro, the Japanese pirates gritted their teeth and climbed up the huge rocks, planks, gold juice and other heavy objects on the city.

There were sufficient siege equipment on the city wall, but the price paid by the Japanese pirates was much heavier than the previous wave of siege. They only climbed the city wall after paying the price of more than 500 lives. However, since the Japanese pirates had twenty-three siege ladders, plus human ladders and flying claws, the number of Japanese pirates who attacked the city wall was doubled compared to last time.

After the Japanese pirates attacked the city wall, the young men on the city spontaneously formed simple mandarin duck formations to surround and kill the Japanese pirates.

Although the Japanese pirates were more numerous, they still suffered head injuries and bloody injuries in front of the simplified version of the Yuanyang Formation.

Damn it!

After the Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro noticed the cooperation of the young men in the city, he couldn't help but frowned and cursed. This little magistrate of Jingnan was by no means a brat with no hair at all as the Jiang clan leader and others said, let alone a fool for reading. What a nerd! On the contrary, not only is he not stupid, he is also very capable. Not only can he encourage the mud-legged people to defend the city, but he can also train a group of mud-legged people to know how to fight in a short period of time!

but!

pity!

You are unlucky if you meet me, Heihachi Honda! That’s it for you! No chance for growth!

hehe!

It must feel pretty good to nip a Ming genius in the cradle with your own hands! The Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro licked his tongue, waved his Japanese sword under the city, and shouted ferociously to the Japanese pirates on the city: "Snake formation! Set up snake formation!"

There are two battle formations that the Japanese pirates make good use of, one is the snake formation and the other is the butterfly formation. However, the butterfly formation is not suitable for fighting on the city wall, so Heihachiro ordered the Japanese pirates on the city to put up a snake formation to fight against the simplified version of the mandarin duck formation on the city.

The Japanese pirates used these two battle formations to travel across the south of the Yangtze River and defeated many regular Ming troops, not to mention the mud-legged men in front of them who had just learned the battle formations and were obviously unfamiliar. The Japanese pirate leader Heihachiro had this confidence.

"Snake formation! Set up snake formation!" The Japanese pirate supervising the battle shouted and passed Heihachiro's order to the city wall.

After the Japanese pirates on the city wall heard this, according to the order of the leader Heihachiro, seven or eight Japanese pirates formed a small team, like a long snake, with the most elite and most capable Japanese pirates at the head and tail of the team, acting as the head and tail of the snake.

The Japanese pirates often used snake formations in melees, attacking from two directions: the head and the tail of the snake, so that the Ming army could not take care of both the head and the tail. Once the head and tail of the Ming army showed a flaw, the Japanese pirates would bite the flaw like a poisonous snake and tear the Ming army into pieces.

The Japanese pirates on the city wall were very familiar with the snake formation, and they quickly formed snake formations.

As soon as the snake formation appeared, the situation on the city wall immediately changed.

In fact, strictly speaking, the Yuanyang Formation is not afraid of the Snake Formation. On the contrary, the Yuanyang Formation is the nemesis of the Snake Formation. The Yuanyang Formation was originally a battle formation developed by Qi Jiguang against the Japanese pirates, and it defeated all the Japanese pirates' various battle formations.

The two people in front of the Yuanyang Formation advance with long cards and shields, and at the same time cover the battle formation; the next two people hold wolf swords for wolves, and use four or five-meter-long wolf swords to assassinate the Japanese pirates to cover the advancement of the shield bearers and the attack of the spearmen behind them. , followed by four spearmen holding long spears, two on each side to take care of the shield bearers and wolf bearers in front respectively; followed by two soldiers holding boring palladium and short blades on their waists to serve as warning, support and other tasks . If the enemy attacks in a roundabout way, the short-bladed hand behind will rush forward with a short sword to kill the enemy. The mandarin duck formations cover each other from the beginning to the end. They are not afraid of the Japanese pirates' snake formation attacking from the beginning and the end. They are still afraid that the Japanese pirates will not come.

However, the young and strong people on the city wall had just come into contact with the Yuanyang Formation, and their personal force was far inferior to that of the Japanese pirates. The young and strong people in the front row were holding shields and were not afraid of the attacks of the snake-headed Japanese pirates. However, the young and strong people in the back row were holding long knives and serving as guards and support. Opponents that are not attacking the snake-tailed Japanese pirates cannot effectively shoulder the important task of protecting the back row.

After the Japanese pirates formed a snake formation, the young people on the city wall began to be at a disadvantage, and the number of casualties increased.
