Later, most people who have experienced all this cannot describe even what they have witnessed with their own eyes, because they don’t know what words to describe it to express what they saw and what they later. The scene they saw was so terrible and amazing that they couldn’t accept it, completely subverting their worldview, so that at the beginning, everyone was stunned, and there was a vacuum period on the battlefield.

Mei Guozhen later mentioned the scene at that time in his letter to Emperor Wanli, only eight words were used, but it perfectly reproduced the terrible scene - overturning the huge city, like uncovering a piece of paper.

In most people's memories that are not clear and real, their initial feeling was a slight vibration, and they felt that the earth was shaking, like an earthquake. The Ming army was a little panicked, and the rebels on the city were even more panicked. They knew very well what the earthquake meant to the rebels.

Then there was a faint roar, which became louder and louder. As the frequency of vibration continued to increase, the sound became louder and louder. The entire earth was shaking and the entire field of vision was shaking. According to traditional thinking, they even thought that there were earth dragons rolling underground, and even earth dragons would break out of the ground!

What broke through the ground was not the earth dragon, but a large amount of gas and a more violent roar.

"boom--------"

At that time, many people only had such sounds and long roars left in their ears. Even if they were blocked with cotton, the loud noise still shocked them, fearing that something like a destruction would happen to them. The white smoke gushed up from the ground, and the entire earth seemed to be bulging from the bottom of the city wall, and that piece burst directly.

This amazing force hit a section of the West City, a section of the city wall of about twenty meters long. The entire section of the city wall jumped up like a wave, as if the plane figure suddenly became three-dimensional, which was astonishing as if it was a plane figure. Countless bricks and stones flew into the sky, and the main body of the city wall still fell to the ground after it was broken, and white smoke covered everything. Of course, due to the violent airflow, the smoke came and went quickly.

At the same time, countless bricks and stones fell from the sky to the ground like raindrops. The speed and momentum were unprecedented in countless people. All three layers of shields were penetrated, some were penetrated, and even two layers of iron shields were penetrated, and one layer was penetrated, and the remaining one was smashed deep into a hole.

The shield-holder's hand was broken, and several unlucky soldiers were directly hit by bricks and stones. Some died on the spot, and some were disabled. Although there were very few, some were.

The earth was still shaking, and the gravel continued to fall. From time to time, screams could be heard in the Ming army formation. Although they were well prepared, everyone underestimated the power of gunpowder to break the city. What Xiao Ruxun would not forget was that a brick and stone as big as a fist hit his feet directly, embedded deep into the ground, and made a deep hole. Xiao Ruxun imagined countless times that what would happen to the stone if it was slightly tilted a little?

When the big hole more than ten meters wide appeared in Xiao Ruxun's vision, his heart was beating violently. He knew that he knew at the first time that he had succeeded. He tied his future and the future of the whole world to this attack. With the destructive attack, all of this began to become clear.

At that time, there was a vacuum period in which there was no movement and no movement in the rebels or the Ming army.

Wei Xuezeng in the camp struggled to turn over, staggered and touched outside the tent, and looked at the scene that looked like the end of the world, tears flowed.

Xiao Ruxun was the first to wake up. He knew that Mei Guozhen only trembled and woke up after him, but it was not Xiao Ruxun who shouted the slogan of rushing, but Mei Guozhen, who was like a madman in war.

Xiao Ruxun still remembered that at that time, Mei Guozhen's eyes were red, like a bloodthirsty demon, and abandoned all the gentle and literary styles. Mei Guozhen in armor was a military general, not a literati.

Under the leadership of Mei Guozhen, the three thousand elite troops of the Ming army forgot their anxiety and fear, and their desire for credit suppressed everything. They roared and rushed into the gap.

Ma Gui, Xiao Ruhui, Li Bing, Dong Yikui, Zhao Wu, Niu Bingzhong and Li Ben, they all seemed to have lost their minds, and they roared like crazy and rushed into the city with their troops. Then, ten thousand soldiers from the Ming army camp also roared and rushed into the gap with the battle number, and began to hunt the rebels frantically.

The rebels were doomed to fail from that moment on. Most of the rebels whose spirits were taken away by gunpowder did not even dare to resist. They were slumped on the ground and waited for the heads of the vicious Ming army to be cut off.

The Ningxia Rebellion has subsided.

The Ningxia Battle, which officially broke out on the 18th day of the 20th month of Wanli, ended in the afternoon of April 22nd year of Wanli, totaling two months and four days. Compared with the original historical process, it was more than six months shorter, greatly reducing the manpower and material resources consumed by the Ming army in the original historical process. The entire process of suppressing the rebellion was only one-third of the money used in the original historical process.

The main contribution is Xiao Ruxun, who offered the strategy of blasting the city wall with gunpowder and personally presided over it from beginning to end. He is the well-deserved first hero and the first hero who has no objection to everyone.

In the memorial written by Ye Mengxiong, he clearly asked Xiao Ruxun for his merits, and mentioned that if Xiao Ruxun had not offered the "Standard of Gunpowder to Break the City", he would have offered the "Storage Water to Irrigate the City" at that time, which took longer, suffered greater losses and had more variables. Therefore, Xiao Ruxun's merits "responsible to the heavens."

Of course, Xiao Ruxun's contributions were more than that. After the first wave of troops, he led the second wave of troops into the city. After leading troops into the city, he killed the main rebels who suffered heavy losses in the direction of the city gate. At this time, because he approached the blasting point, the deaths of a large number of rebels gathered on the southern city were very tragic, which was not an exaggeration to describe as a sea of ​​corpses and blood. Moreover, many people died of blood in their seven orifices - the explosion was too loud and they were shocked to death.

Qibai was not dead, but it was almost done. When Xiao Ruxun led his team to capture the broken city gate, a ragged figure appeared in front of the army, laughing wildly, with disheveled hair, and looking like a madman.

At that time, someone immediately pointed out that this was the rebel commander. The leader of the rebellion was Wei Bai. Without saying a word, Xiao Ruxun picked up the bird gun and shot and killed the obviously unconscious rebel commander Wei Bai. Wei Bai was broken and died. Xiao Ruxun shot three times at his body, and finally cut off his head with his own hands.

Wei Chengen was cut to death by Ma Gui. He was not dead in the blast, but his left leg was completely shattered by a brick and stone. When Ma Gui was found, he was still crying when he was found. Ma Gui cut eighteen times and finally cut off his head.

The young man was shot to death by random shots, and his credit was divided equally by ten people.

Tu Wenxiu was killed by Niu Bingzhong. He could have been captured alive. He was not affected by the explosion. His army was the most complete, of course, and it was useless. He was defeated by Niu Bingzhong's troops. The rest of his troops ran away in scattered ways. This guy was captured alive, but this guy actually knocked Niu Bingzhong over and wanted to run away. Niu Bingzhong swung his hand and stabbed it deeply into the neck and died on the spot.

Zhou Guozhu is the most tragic. He was hacked to death by Mei Guozhen. A soldier-born scholar was killed by a red-eyed literati with a sword, and then beheaded. He was also considered a stranger among the martial artists...
