Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 281 Ambush
"Sure enough... it's oil!"

Ma Fengsun yelled in his heart that it was not good.First entangle the boat with fishing nets, and then seal the river with kerosene...

This... is planning to burn them all to death on the river in this urn city!

"Paddle! Quick!"

"Exit the water gate!"

Ma Fengsun yelled loudly, in fact, he didn't need to say it, the ships behind Panmen water gate had already used the stern as the bow, and the bow as the stern, and planned to exit the water gate backwards.However, I don't know how much kerosene was poured into the water, the fire was so fierce, and the boats were entangled by the fishing nets underneath, no matter how hard they tried, the burning boats were still unable to move.

On the city wall, under the command of the two princes, the rain of arrows was still pouring down the river as if they didn't want money.A group of panicked Japanese and the remnants of the Zhang family were shot down in the burning river one after another.Some people jumped into the river braving the flames, trying to swim ashore by force.

However, it was in vain. At some time on the shore, a circle of heavily armed Ming troops had already appeared, and a group of Suzhou guards firmly guarded the position near the shore.Even if one or two people were lucky enough to swim to the shore, what greeted them were only the spears of the Ming army like a forest...

Panmen Urn City instantly became a purgatory of flames.Many Japanese and the remnants of the Zhang family died one by one on the river without even touching the clothes of the defenders.

Dead and worthless.

"It's over." Ma Fengsun felt desolate in his heart.He has changed three ships, and this one is already the fourth.But even if it is replaced again, I am afraid that today it will be difficult to escape the fate of being buried on the river.When his heart was sad, he raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, swim with the old man, kill one smart dog to earn money, kill two smart dogs to earn money..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill in his throat, and he couldn't say anything after that.

With a good hand, there was a sharp arrow stuck in his throat at some point...

"What a fierce thief leader. At this time, I still want to resist..." On the eaves of the city tower hidden in the darkness, Zhu Su held a telescope to confirm that Ma Fengsun, who was the leader of the thief, was pierced by an arrow in the throat Falling into the water, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The kerosene collected temporarily is not oil after all. In fact, the fire on the river has almost been extinguished by now.If these thieves lead others to risk their lives by swimming and charging, under the fear of the neglected Suzhou Wei, maybe there will be a loophole...

This is also the reason why he let Cao Yuan's troops, who are available to the army, guard the river bank.

"Dog, good at archery." Zhu Su patted the dog beside him holding a big bow.The dog hurriedly bowed his head, but his face couldn't help showing joy.The current him is already more than a head taller than Zhu Su.Leaving aside his infinite strength, Zhu Su had noticed his archery skills since the last time he was ordered to attack with the cavalry of King Qin's guard.

At that time, he thought about using the dog's shooting skills... As a time traveler, the first thing he thought of was sniper and beheading.

Hiding in the dark and sniping the enemy general, this is a man's romance!It is also the most effective way to weaken the enemy's fighting spirit.

So Zhu Su tried a little trick and asked Zhu Xi and Zhu Di to take charge of the overall situation. Anyway, the arrangements were well arranged, just let the archers of Suzhou Wei release their arrows.

And I took the dog to find a high place, used the binoculars to find the general who gave orders, and then sniped with a bow and arrow.

"Surrender! We surrender..." Sure enough, when Ma Fengsun fell into the river, someone on the river shouted. "I'll wait for my wish to come down, and take my life!"

The Ming army has a tradition of not killing and surrendering. Sure enough, the rain of arrows on the city wall slowed down, and the soldiers all looked at Zhu Xi and Yang Lu over there.

Yang Lu looked at Zhu Xi, but Zhu Xi was still hesitating, but Zhu Di had already stepped forward and said loudly: "Keep shooting arrows! Don't stop!"

"These thieves will never be allowed to come to the shore! They must be shot to death in this urn!"

Zhu Di knew very well that Zhang's remnants were not the only ones among these thieves, there were also quite a few Japanese.Even if the remnants of the Zhang family sincerely surrendered, if they stopped shooting arrows and waited for the flames on the river to dissipate, Suzhou Wei would probably have to face the frontal attack of the Japanese.

Standing in a safe place and shooting arrows into the river is okay. With the level of Suzhou Wei, can it stand up to the wolf-like Japanese pirates?

Zhu Su also heard Zhu Di's immediate decision, and nodded approvingly: With the fourth brother here, the turtles in the urn inside the city gate should have no problem.

What needs to be taken care of now is the remaining thieves outside the city.

……

Outside the city, the river.

At the moment when he saw the city gate closed, Zhang Li already sensed something bad in his heart.When flames suddenly appeared in the dark and silent Urn City, Zhang Li was even more frightened, his face turned ashen.

Counted!
"Everyone, turn around and return immediately!" After struggling for a moment between forcibly attacking the city to rescue the troops and retreating for their lives, Zhang Li immediately chose the latter.Coincidentally, the Japanese pirate Oida Shizhi's flagship over there also immediately chose to retreat, and everyone on board paddled their oars as if fleeing, and headed back in the direction they came from.

"Huh...it seems...safe for the time being." The city seemed to be busy ambushing the group of people, horses and boats that entered the Wengcheng, and had no time to take care of them.Seeing the majestic Panmen tower drifting away, Zhang Li breathed a sigh of relief.While rejoicing that he did not enter the city first after hearing Ma Fengsun's words, he wondered why the people in the city didn't set up an ambush directly at the gate of the city since they already knew that they would attack the city tonight.

There are not many troops in Suzhou, so letting people into the city is risky after all...

"Mr. Zhang." Just as he was thinking this way, Ojing Tian Shizhi also jumped onto Zhang Li's boat. "It seems that there has been an ambush in Suzhou City for a long time..."

"It's just strange, why didn't they ambush us outside the city? If they did, they would be able to scare us away without abolishing those Zhou Zhang..."

"I'm thinking about this too." Zhang Li, who had come to his senses, stroked his chin. "Maybe, they are thinking about eating as much as they can, so they take the risk of eating as much as they can."

"Maybe, I'm still thinking about whether I can trick the two of us into the city..."

"That King Wu of the Ming Dynasty is quite courageous." Mrs. O Jingtian stared back at the flames inside the door, and the flesh on his face twitched slightly with some pain. "However, in this way, although we are not considered injured, we can no longer continue to attack the city..."

"Zhang Jun, next, we should scatter and loot everywhere to see if we can recover some losses."

"Mr. Da Jingtian..." Zhang Li hastily persuaded him to stay. "Suzhou City is empty of troops. Zhu Su knew that we were going to capture the city, but he didn't dare to set up an ambush under the city to fight us. This just shows that they have no other choice!"

"Let's hold on for a little longer. There must still be a chance. Otherwise, at dawn, let my people try to forcibly attack the city..."

He was a little panicked. If he didn't seize this opportunity and seize a city to gain a firm foothold, his Zhang family would definitely disappear...

"Mr. Zhang." Mrs. Ojinga was a little unhappy. "This is the place of the Ming Dynasty, and Suzhou is the big city of the Ming Dynasty. Even if there are not many Ming troops in Suzhou, it will be difficult for us to break through this city."

"Earlier you said that King Wu in the city was just a child, so I believed your words and brought my warriors to try to attack the city..."

"But now, that King Wu is not an ordinary child at all..."

"Mr. Dajing!" Zhang Li still wanted to persuade him to stay, but Mr. Dajing firmly refused.The Japanese pirates were able to gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Ming army by relying on their ability to come and go freely.Being here for nearly ten days has already made him feel very dangerous.

What if reinforcements from the Ming army blocked them here?
Just as they were arguing, suddenly the sound of rumbling war drums came from the ears of the two of them.A soldier from the front boat rowing a small boat scrambled up to the deck and reported to Zhang Li with tears in his voice:
"Second Young Master, the front... the front."

"Countless Ming warships!"
