Mo Jingzhang didn't expect Daming to be so unyielding. After a round of shouting, he didn't even open the gates, but they actually attacked the city directly. They were too unyielding.
As expected, as expected, I didn't guess wrong. This is Great Ming's attitude. Ruan Huang, that trash, that spineless fellow.
Ruan Kuan looked at the approaching Daming's army with an ugly expression. However, he was more afraid.
Qi Jin didn't care. He used his binoculars to look at Haiyang City. Soon, he found Mo Jingzhang. Through the binoculars, he could see Mo Jingzhang's expression clearly.
Qi Jin smiled and raised his eyebrows. There were indeed people who couldn't see the situation clearly in this world. Such people were the most suitable to be sacrificed to the sword.
"Your Majesty, please make a decision!" Ruan Kuan looked at Mo Jingzhang and said urgently.
What decision at this time?
Ruan Kuan's meaning was clear. Hurry up and give the order to surrender!
Looking at Ruan Kuan, Mo Jingzhang shook his head and said, "No, I can't open the gates. Tell the people below to hold the fort. I'll ask the Majesty for help immediately!"
The military order was quickly passed down. The news of the battle with Daming spread quickly. The expressions of the defenders of Haiyang City were different.
However, they didn't have much time to react because Daming's army had already come up. They nocked their bows and shot arrows. They were prepared to rain arrows on Daming, just like how they used to defend cities in the past.
Unfortunately, they were wrong this time. Although they were on top of the city and looking down, they felt the rain of arrows from Daming first.
Daming's archers were all meticulously trained. Not only did they have a long range, but they were also very accurate. All of them used compound bows with pulleys, which had a longer range and greater power. At the same time, they used less energy.
With the sound of bowstrings, countless arrows were shot from Daming's army, flying straight toward Haiyang City.
Mo Jingzhang, who was standing on top of the city wall, was the focus of the arrows.
"Protect the Majesty, protect the Majesty!"
Ruan Kuan shouted for his men to protect Mo Jingzhang. At the same time, he followed Mo Jingzhang closely, waiting for the others to protect him as well.
Mo Jingzhang's bodyguards hurriedly gathered in front of Mo Jingzhang. Then, the sound of arrows piercing through bodies could be heard. In an instant, blood splattered all over the city walls, and screams of agony could be heard. This was not the end.
The gunmen in Daming's army were also ready. They took turns to fire at the top of Haiyang City.
Bullets rained down on the city wall of Haiyang City as if they were free. In such a situation, even if you wanted to fight back, you did not dare to show your head.
When the shield-bearers were close enough, they all took out the grenades from their waists, pulled off the ropes, and threw them.
Compared to bullets, grenades were parabolic in shape, so it was easier to throw them behind the city wall. Even if one hid behind the city wall, it would not work. Those who were good at throwing would be able to throw the grenade into the city wall.
Among Qi Jiguang's shield-bearers, many of them used to be sheep herders. They were used to throwing stones and keeping the sheep.
The shield-bearers were strong and accurate. They were famous in Daming's army. Now, Haiyang City had become a victim.
The grenades were thrown into the city wall of Haiyang City and exploded instantly. Although Daming's grenades could only explode into four or five pieces, the power was still very strong.
The grenades were thrown over like they were free. The entire city wall of Haiyang City was in chaos. Some bodies were directly blown up and fell to the bottom of the city wall.
Screams of agony could be heard. Some were injured by the sound, while others were directly injured by the explosion.
Mo Jingzhang was protected as he walked down the city wall. At this moment, Mo Jingzhang's heart was filled with fear. It was over, it was all over.
The speed of the Ming Army was very fast. They arrived at the bottom of the city wall very quickly. Then, someone started to bury the explosives. As for blowing up the city wall, the Ming Army had actually studied it thoroughly.
What kind of city wall, how high and how thick the city wall was, what material was used to find the explosive point and where to bury the explosives. These things were all very professional.
Very soon, the explosives were placed. Then, there was a loud bang. It was like the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Smoke and dust were everywhere.
In an instant, a large part of the city wall of Haiyang City collapsed. The shield-bearers behind did not have the slightest hesitation. They raised their shields and rushed forward. The musketeers also followed closely behind.
The battle of Haiyang City did not take much effort. Or perhaps it could be said that it was not a battle. They just occupied a city after landing.
Haiyang City was quickly cleaned up. The streets were under martial law. Anyone who went out would be beheaded. From this moment onwards, Haiyang City's owner had changed. It belonged to Daming.
In Mo Jingzhang's imperial residence, Qi Jin saw Mo Jingzhang who was being pressed down. There was a playful expression on his face.
At this moment, Mo Jingzhang straightened his neck and stood upright. He had no intention of kneeling down. He looked very unyielding.
When Qi Jin saw this scene, he suddenly laughed. He waved his hand and signaled the soldiers who wanted to press Mo Jingzhang down to retreat. Then, he said slowly, "I don't know if you are pretending or not. I, I, don't want to know either. Someone, take him out and behead him. Search his family and behead them together."
"By the way, ask who wants to go with him. Send them on their way. Our Daming doesn't have any other strong points, but his knife is fast!"
When they heard Qi Jin's words, the surrounding General Daming all laughed. They did not take Mo Jingzhang's Lord seriously at all.
What kind of Lord was this?
In the eyes of the Daming, this kind of Lord was nothing.
The Daming was extremely arrogant now. Who did you think you were? How dare you challenge the Daming?
"Find someone who has the final say!"
Qi Jin thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Find one of his strategists. Right now, I has the final say here."
Very quickly, Ruan Kuan was pressed down. Compared to Mo Jingzhang, Ruan Kuan was much more adaptable. When he saw Qi Jin, he hurriedly bowed. "Student Ruan Kuan greets General Daming!"
"Oh, a scholar?"
When he heard that Ruan Kuan could speak Daming, Qi Jin instantly laughed. He did not expect Ruan Kuan to be a scholar. As for his ability to speak Daming, it was not a big deal. In this day and age, one had to know how to speak Daming. How could one not know how to speak Daming? Whether it was Korea or the Japanese Empire, one had to learn how to speak Daming.
"Yes, I am a scholar!" Ruan Kuan hurriedly said.
Before Qi Jin could speak, someone suddenly walked in from outside. It was the person who had dragged Mo Jingzhang out to watch the beheading. At this moment, he placed Mo Jingzhang's head on a tray. The tray was covered in blood. Mo Jingzhang's eyes were wide open, and his expression was abnormally ferocious. He looked extremely terrifying.
The present General Daming watched indifferently. They had seen many heads and had beheaded many people. What was a mere Mo Jingzhang's head?
Ruan Kuan, who was standing at the side, was scared out of his wits. His face was pale, and his entire body started to tremble. With a thud, he knelt on the ground. Seeing this scene, even Qi Jin was stunned. This was too cowardly.
