Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 621 Hami Chi: There's an old saying among the Southern Barbarians [2 updates]

"Jill—"

A sharp whistle rang out in Tanzhou City, and a streak of flames rapidly climbed into the night sky!
"Big brother, Qian'er gave us a signal!"

Lu Junyi shoved Cai Fu several times:
"It's time for us to fire!"

Cai Fu was lying on the ground with his hands behind his head, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, legs crossed, squinting as he gazed at Tanzhou City.

Upon seeing the line of firelight, Cai Fu's eyes lit up, and he jumped up with a "carp leaping out of the water," staring intently at the source of the firelight!

"boom--"

Suddenly a huge roar resounded, and a fiery meteor flew into the city from the darkness!

The flying fire meteor struck precisely where the flames had risen, and Cai Fu couldn't help but throw two punches into the air:
"Pretty!"

After receiving guidance from Cai Fu, Ling Zhen and Tang Long successfully created the legendary "Red Cannon".

Although the red-coated cannon wasn't exactly high-tech, it was sufficient for this era.

As for high technology, that's not something that Cai Fu could create in this era with just a few casual words of advice.

"I wonder where Qian'er marked the first place."

Cai Fu instructed Shi Qian to mark important locations, but Shi Qian had to determine the specific locations and their importance himself.

"Your Majesty, shall we set off now?"

The field battalion commanders, Xie Zhen and Xie Bao, came to inquire, saying that the two brothers' iron forks were itching for action!

Cai Fu smiled and said, "No rush, let Ling Zhen fire a few rounds first."

"It's not too late for you to set off when the city is in complete chaos."

Jie Zhen and Jie Bao had no choice but to run back to mobilize the field camp, give them a pep talk, and keep them excited.

"Father, let's go too!"

The four youngsters ran over to Cai Fu and volunteered, along with Cai Fu's disciples Shi Xiu, Lu Junyi's disciples Zhang Kui, and Wu Shangzhi.

Cai Fu shook his head: "No, that's not your battlefield."

"Only when the city gates open will it be your time to prove your worth."

"Xiuer, you can go."

"Thank you Master!"

Shi Xiu left happily, and the children were so envious that Jill turned purple.

But there was nothing they could do; after all, Shi Xiu was an infantry general, while the others were cavalry generals.

After the children had moved aside, Lin Chong and Wang Jin approached:
"Your Majesty, let us go too!"

"We excel at infantry combat!"

Cai Fu agreed. With Lin Chong and Wang Jin, two formidable generals, the mission of removing the treasures and smuggling the precious items would be even more secure.

……

"Hurry up……"

A group of Jin soldiers ran chaotically down the street, completely unaware that someone was scaling walls and rooftops.

Almost parallel to them, Shi Qian walked on the rooftop as if it were flat ground, and soon arrived at the granary.

The granary was heavily guarded, but it was all for naught, because Shi Qian was a "flea on the drum"!
"Whoosh-"

Shi Qian leaped onto the roof of the granary and lit a firecracker in the same manner.

This "skyrocket" was named by Cai Fu, and Ling Zhen was also instructed by Cai Fu on how to make it. Unexpectedly, it came in very handy in the first real battle.

Shi Qian lit the fuse and ran away.

"Jill—"

The rocket shrieked as it soared into the night sky, leaving a trail of fire marking the granary.

broken!

General Jin, who had been ordered to protect the granary, felt a sudden pang of fear. Fortunately, he was prepared and shouted:
"Shoot it down!"

One hundred archers were already waiting with their bows drawn and arrows ready; without him saying a word, they immediately unleashed a volley of arrows!
"Whoosh whoosh—"

A hail of arrows chased after the rocket, but to their despair, the rocket was too fast...

"We can't shoot it down, General!"

The archer complained to the Jin general, who looked utterly desperate.
"Why don't you run away?"

Having said that, the Jin general shoved the archer aside and galloped away. Moments later, thunder roared behind him.

"Boom—" We're doomed!

Jin lunged forward, lay on the ground, and looked back to see that the granary had not only been blown up but was also on fire!

Seeing the granary destroyed, Jin Wuzhu felt a chill run down his spine.

"Strategist, what should we do?"

"I never expected that the cannons of the Southern Barbarians could hit any target!"

"It can still shoot this far!"

Hami Chi was also desperate: "Your Highness, we'll send people to the Song Kingdom to buy cannons later!"

"Right now, there's no good solution. If we let them keep bombing like this, the city will be flattened sooner or later!"
"Your Highness, there is an old saying among the Southern Barbarians: 'Where there's life, there's hope.'"

"It's not as good as us..."

"Wait!"

Jin Wuzhu, unwilling to give up, pressed on: "Why don't we break out and fight them in the dead of night?"

Hami Chi shook his head with a wry smile: "They must have already set up a trap for us!"
"If we fight our way out, wouldn't we be walking into a trap?"

"Ah this..."

Jin Wuzhu couldn't help but clench his fists:

"I have already sent someone back to claim credit for taking over Tanzhou..."

"Your Highness!"

Hami Chi emphasized, "Cai Nanman must have another trick up his sleeve!"
"If we don't leave now, I'm afraid..."

Jin Wuzhu: (_)
……

"The city is on fire, let's go!"

Jie Zhen and Jie Bao exchanged a glance and immediately ordered the field battalion to rush towards the moat.

Shi Xiu, Lin Chong, and Wang Jin also changed into night clothes and moved with the field battalion.

They rushed to the moat in one breath, and as they ran, Jie Zhen and Jie Bao each untied the hemp ropes they were carrying.

The hemp rope was as thick as a child's arm, with an iron anchor tied to the end. They swung the rope above their heads.

"call--"

Taking advantage of the momentum, when they reached the moat, Jie Zhen and Jie Bao threw the anchor violently to the other side!

"Crack! Crack!"

With two sharp cracks, the anchor had apparently snagged something. Jie Zhen and Jie Bao tried to pull it out, but couldn't budge it.

That's it!

Jie Zhen and Jie Bao exchanged a glance, tied the rope on this side of the bank, and then climbed over to the other side.

The two brothers climbed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye they reached the other side of the moat, where they tugged on the rope a couple more times.

The field unit received the signal and began to line up to climb over the moat using ropes.

Lin Chong, Wang Jin, and Shi Xiu also climbed over, and once everyone had gone, they arrived at the foot of the city wall.

The city wall was straight up and down, like an impregnable fortress, but Xie Zhen and Xie Bao climbed it up with their bare hands.

The two brothers were like two big monkeys, disappearing into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

This was the first time Wang Jin had ever seen such skill. He looked up at the city wall, his mouth agape in disbelief.

"Shuh-huh--"

A moment later, two hemp ropes dangled from above the city wall, nearly falling into Wang Jin's mouth.

"go!"

The field battalion immediately and nimbly climbed up the rope, while Shi Xiu, Lin Chong, and Wang Jin could only watch from the sidelines.

Having observed enough, the three of them climbed up the rope.

Although they had no training, the three of them had years of martial arts experience and were strong, so they quickly climbed to the top of the city wall.

By the time they climbed up, a fierce battle had already broken out on the city wall!
"Enemy—attack—"

A Jin soldier yelled at the top of his lungs, and with a "thud," a heavy iron fork pierced his mouth.

You are the only one who talks a lot!
