Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 784 Entering Hanzhou City

Hanzhou City is a wooden city gate. Once it is destroyed by fire, the army will rush into the city and start a street battle with the Chinese Empire with an army of [-]. The chance of victory will be greatly increased.

The deputy general was also a ruthless man. He immediately summoned a second shield phalanx and rushed towards the city gate with each shield protecting an archer.

bang bang bang...

The dense bullets came at an angle, killing and wounding many soldiers.

However, there were still some shield bearers who approached the city gate about two hundred paces under a hail of bullets.

This distance is far away from the attack range of grenades, and it can shoot bows and arrows towards the city gate very well. It can be said to be an excellent position.

Now there are no cannons in the defense of the city. Xuanyuan Lingyu ordered the soldiers to block their way, but they were blocked by those shields.

"Archers, prepare! Shoot in the direction of the city gate!"

In the square formation, the deputy general shouted an order.

The archers hiding behind the shield soldiers bent their bows and arrows, and fired countless rockets at the city gate, which were immediately nailed to the wooden city gate.

The city gates were quickly set on fire.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

The lieutenant shouted an order and retreated with his shield hand.

"Reporting to the General Zhenguo, they used rockets to set the city gate on fire. It is estimated that the city gate will burn down soon."

Vice General Wang Mian reported loudly.

"Wang Mian, lead the army and occupy the tall buildings and rooftops around the city gate. Any enemies who come in will be shot on the spot."

Xuanyuan Lingyu gave the order decisively.

"understand!"

Wang Mian turned around and left.

"and many more……"

Xuanyuan Lingyu stopped him.

"General, what's the matter?"

Wang Mian said puzzledly.

"Bring the more than 30 submachine guns and put them on the surrounding tall buildings to block the enemy's offensive."

Xuanyuan Lingyu actually handed him the submachine gun.

This submachine gun is very powerful and continuous, and can effectively block the enemy's group charge.

Zheng Guohua looked at the burning city gate and did not order to continue the attack, but waited silently.

In his opinion, as long as they storm into Hanzhou City, the [-] troops of the Chinese Empire will definitely not be able to withstand the impact of a hundred thousand troops.

However, the battle lasted for so long and Lu Hao never showed up, which made him feel at ease.

As long as a master-level master like Lu Hao does not participate in the battle, he can defeat the First Army of the Central Army of the Chinese Empire with human sea tactics.

The enemy did not attack, so the imperial soldiers on the city wall naturally did not fire, and the entire west gate suddenly became quiet.

"General Qi, the city gate has been set on fire and will probably burn down soon."

Deputy General Zhou Yuan came to report.

"It's okay. Let General Wang Mian guard the city gate. The other soldiers will guard the stone sleepers and move the tung oil to the attic at the city gate..."

"The enemies will definitely swarm in from the city gate soon. General Zhou, go and guard the attic at the city gate and just smash it down."

Xuanyuan Lingyu explained.

"As ordered!"

General Zhou Yuan took the order and left.

At this time, the city gate had been ignited with raging fire, and there were bursts of squeaking sounds. It was obvious that there was tung oil on the rocket just now.

In the distance, Zheng Guohua and all the soldiers of Zheng State focused their eyes on the burning city gate, waiting quietly for the gate to collapse.

"General, the city gate should be burned down soon."

One of the lieutenants said with a smile. "Hahaha... General Zhang, as soon as the city gate is burned down, he will immediately lead the cavalry into the city and start a street battle with the soldiers of the Chinese Empire. I don't believe that an army of [-] people can't take Hanzhou City!"

Zheng Guohua chuckled.

"The general is wise and powerful! The last general will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and capture Hanzhou City!"

General Zhang immediately responded loudly.

"Very well, go ahead and remember to tell the soldiers to use bows and arrows to deal with the enemy!"

Zheng Guohua added.

"I will understand at the end!"

General Zhang was overjoyed and turned around and left.

Under everyone's expectant eyes, the solid wooden city gate finally fell apart in the raging fire.

Bang!
The gate fell down and collapsed into a pile of firewood.

"The gates of Hanzhou City have been burned down. Soldiers, follow my general into Hanzhou City and kill..."

General Zhang roared fiercely, led the cavalry, and rushed towards the city gate.

"Kill! Kill! Kill..."

Zheng's cavalry followed and launched a charge.

"Shoot! Shoot..."

Xuanyuan Lingyu roared loudly.

bang bang bang...

Intense bullets were fired at the unprotected soldiers, and many soldiers fell from their horses.

Some horses fell to the ground after being shot, and the soldiers on the horses fell to the ground with the horses, and were killed or trampled to death by the horses behind them.

The horses were very fast. Although the first round of bullets killed many soldiers, General Zhang still rushed into the city gate with most of the soldiers.

At this moment, countless imperial soldiers emerged from the upper floors and rooftops around the city gate square.

"Shoot! Block them!"

General Wang Mian shouted loudly.

bang bang bang...

The dense rifle bullets slanted down, and General Zhang, who had just rushed into the city gate, was beaten into a hornet's nest before he could be happy.

The soldiers who rushed in after him were killed on the spot by bullets from all directions before they could see the situation clearly.

Even the war horses were beaten to death and screamed before they died, finally falling down.

Zheng Guohua watched General Zhang leading the army into Hanzhou City, and he was immediately overjoyed. He felt that he was sure to win this battle.

"Kill! Kill..."

Zheng Guohua roared loudly and commanded the cavalry to charge.

Of course, if you want to rush into Hanzhou City, you will definitely need to brave a hail of bullets.

After all, Xuanyuan Lingyu has been commanding the soldiers on the city wall to carry out saturation attacks on the cavalry, and there are not many enemies who can really rush into the city.

On the city tower, Zhou Yuan directed the soldiers to block the city gate. Not to mention the dense bullets, even the stone sleepers and tung oil that were smashed down formed a natural barrier.

If you want to rush in, you must overcome these obstacles and the flames.

Besides, if too many enemies came in, General Wang Mian would have already used a submachine gun.

The Zheng cavalry outside launched wave after wave of attacks. Although there were casualties, many people were also seen rushing into the city gate.

This not only made Zheng Guohua full of fantasy, that is, the soldiers who rushed into the city could capture the city gate and then attack the city wall. At that time, a large number of infantry would be able to enter Hanzhou City, and capturing Hanzhou City would be easy.

It's a pity that the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Those soldiers who rushed into the city died faster. They died under the enemy's gun before they could see the enemy clearly. How could they have a chance to fight on the tower?How can we talk about having a chance to capture the tower?
"What's going on? Logically speaking, if so many people rushed in, they should also take down the city gate? How come there is no movement?"

Zheng Guohua said to himself.
