Du Min shouted: "Quick, force those people to rush up the embankment, and the second wave of attacks will immediately follow, quickly." The Minzhuang team, which was still chaotic just now, was suddenly driven by the Qing army supervising the battle behind and continued to rush to the embankment.

After the order was given by the Qianhu of the Restoration Army, the attack never stopped. There are people who are falling, and these are unarmed people. What the Restoration Army is doing now is like a one-sided massacre, and all the officers and men of the Restoration Army feel uncomfortable, but the current situation cannot help but attack.

While attacking, the Restoration Army shouted: "Retreat, don't come up, run from both sides." But at this time, no one listened at all, and the Qing army behind was still driving the people forward. Finally, some Qing soldiers didn't pay attention, chased the people and drove them away, and inadvertently, they had already walked into the people to drive away. After the people of the Restoration Army found out, many Restoration Army with good archery skills immediately singled out the Qing Army.

These Qing army overseers lost more than a dozen people at once. Seeing this, the Qing army's warlords did not dare to step forward again, but only threatened to shoot Minzhuang with bows and arrows to let them continue to charge. In this way, without the Qing army coming forward to drive away, the situation of the people rushing forward is not satisfactory. Now that the Restoration Army is killing people with real swords and guns, these people don't dare to rush up like just now.

Seeing this, Du Min in the back said: "Give weapons to the second wave of people, let the second wave of people come forward, and drive the first wave of people to rush forward." Tell them that as long as the first wave of people breaks through the Ming army's defenses, the second wave of people don't have to die. ”

The Qing army on the side immediately passed Du Min's words to the people who were about to step forward. When the second wave of people heard this, they were all overjoyed, after all, they didn't have to die. They all took their weapons and stepped forward to drive away the first wave of people.

In this way, if the people in front of them do not rush, they will be directly hacked to death by the second wave of people. Impatiently, Minzhuang, who had retreated a little just now, began to rush back to the defense line of the Ming army.

This time, the people of the Restoration Army are no longer soft-hearted. Because of their previous hesitation, the people quickly rushed to the embankment and then rushed to the bridge. With the arrival of the second wave of attacks mixed with a large number of Qing soldiers in the back, the people in front were almost pushed by the people behind to pounce on the defense line of the Restoration Army.

At this time, all the Restoration Army was stubbornly guarding the bridge. The people in the back kept firing arrows, and the people in front raised their knives and slashed at the defenseless people. It was simply a one-sided massacre, and the soldiers of the Restoration Army did not suffer many casualties, but no one was happy in their hearts. The wounded and the dead were pushed down the river one after another.

The whole river has been dyed red for a long time. As time passed, the 3,000 people in front of them were exhausted, and the second wave of attacks later also washed up the embankment. The team mixed with the Qing army finally let the Restoration Army also die.

In this way, the Restoration Army is even more ruthless, and the Restoration Army that was on the front line just now. It's already retreated to the back to rest. The archers who shoot arrows have also changed in a wave. All kinds of murderous weapons are on a small bridge, cooperating with each other, constantly harvesting fresh lives.

When the attack was launched here, Phoenix Mountain and Turtle Mountain were also attacked by the Qing army at the same time. The Qing army that attacked Phoenix Mountain first rushed up the mountain with fear, but they kept rushing to the mountainside and were not attacked by the Restoration Army. The Qing army, which rushed up, was suddenly very puzzled, and everyone was very worried along the way, not knowing where the Ming Restoration Army would attack from.

But when everyone went to the top of the mountain, it turned out that the Phoenix Mountain, which had been abandoned by the Restoration Army, had been removed, and all the cannons on the mountain had been removed. The hungry people of the Qing army in Shangshan immediately cheered loudly, after all, no one wanted to really fight with the Restoration Army. Who knows if it will be himself who died, and now it is better for the Restoration Army to withdraw by itself.

Just when the Qing army on the top of the mountain was cheering, on the wall of Hanyang City, suddenly cannons rang out, and countless cannons suddenly roared towards Phoenix Mountain. More than 30 shells went straight to the top of Phoenix Mountain, and the Qing army, which was still cheering just now, fled in all directions in fright.

But it was too late, the shells fell from the sky, and suddenly the Qing army on the top of the mountain was blown up all over the field. When attacking the mountain just now, no one died, and when the army went up the mountain, it was killed and injured by a round of artillery of the Restoration Army.

The angry general who attacked Phoenix Mountain jumped to his feet, but before he could get angry, the second round of artillery of the Restoration Army came again. The general had no choice but to immediately retreat to the bottom of the mountain with his army.

After Du Min knew about this situation, he immediately understood Gou Xingwang's thoughts, and said: "Since they easily gave up Phoenix Mountain, it means that they don't have many troops at all, you immediately attack Turtle Mountain, as long as you take Turtle Mountain, the warships and cannons of our naval division can directly threaten Hanyang City." At that time, I will see how the Ming army in the city will defend the city. ”

Gou Xingwang in the city also found that the Qing army, which was originally attacking Phoenix Mountain, was moving towards Guishan Mountain. Said: "Let someone inform Zhou Linyuan on Turtle Mountain, and let them command our artillery array to support the defense of Turtle Mountain." ”

Suddenly, the flag bearers on Hanyang Castle and Turtle Mountain immediately began to communicate with each other using the language of the flag. After a while, the cannons on Hanyang Castle began to roar. The shells fell one after another on the heads of the Qing troops rushing up the mountain, and the Qing army was already stranded in front of the trenches built by the Restoration Army. Now that they were beaten by the cannons, many of the people in the team began to find a way to escape.

For a time, the Qing army had to resist the bows and arrows and firearms of the Restoration Army on the mountain, and also guard against the artillery on their heads. Looking at the people who had already fled in all directions, the Qing army also fled down the mountain.

The Qing troops at Hanyang Castle and Gushan Mountain, the attack was blocked. But the Qing army in Hankow was different. There are no three lines of defense for Hanyang Castle, and there are no trenches and mountain roads for Guisan. What's more, as soon as the Qing army came up, it directly attacked with all its might, with the people in front and the Qing soldiers behind.

Although there was the support of Kameyama's cannons from time to time, it was not very effective. Now Ma Rong led 3,000 Fuming troops, and the whole line took Minzhuang and the original Hankou to the laborers, and went up to fight against the Qing soldiers.

Although the Qing army's attack was fierce, due to the topography of Hankou, the Qing army could not send a large number of troops to attack the city. This is one of the few advantages of Hankow. In addition, Hankou was originally a place for storing grain, and due north was blocked by a huge Houhu Lake.

In this way, the terrain of Hankou becomes a curved and narrow terrain. Therefore, the Qing army could only attack from both ends of this terrain. In this way, the Qing army's attack area was divided into two sides, and a section of land was taken to attack on the west and north.

In addition, the cannons of Guishan protect the Yangtze River and the Han River, Ma Rong only needs to defend, and now the Qing army will attack the two sections. Therefore, although the Qing army attacked fiercely, Ma Rong was not worried, and just let the people and the laborers defend the two defense lines. It's just the people and laborers, and now there are many casualties.

Zhang Changgeng, who was in Wuchang, saw that the Qing army was unable to open up the situation for a long time, and he was immediately very anxious. Directly asked Bu Shilong to cross the river with 20,000 Minzhuang and 10,000 Qing troops to support. In this way, the Qing army that was preparing to attack Hanyang and Hankou reached 70,000 men.

Du Min saw that his two waves of attacks failed to capture the bridge defended by the Fuming Army. only to find that he had fallen into the trap of the Restoration Army, and he hurriedly transferred the 10,000 people behind him to step forward and pick up soil to fill the river. At this time, seeing that the Qing army finally let Minzhuang fill the river, Gou Xingwang also knew that the second line of defense could not be held.

But it's a pity to withdraw now. If Minzhuang is not stopped from filling the river, the Qing army will soon fill up the river. At that time, the Qing army can, walk the filled river and directly pass through the defense line, and the 3,000 Fuming troops defending the Yong'an Bridge will not be able to stop the Qing army at all.

Qianhu, who was defending the Fuming army near the Yong'an Bridge, saw this and said: "Shoot directly the people who fill the river, and the bow and arrow will take special care of the Qing troops who supervise the war." Many soldiers said: "Lord Qianhu, we really want to shoot the people who fill the river." ”

Qianhu said: "What if you don't kill them?" Do you want to wait for the people to fill the river and let the Qing soldiers come and kill us? When the time comes, the Qing army will rush up, and we will no longer be able to hold the Yong'an Bridge. When everyone heard this, they all understood that what Qianhu said was reasonable. But there are still a lot of Fu Ming troops who can't do it, and there is no way to do it, so they shouted: "If anyone doesn't do it, they will all be dealt with according to disobeying the military order." Hurry up and release the arrows. ”

The side of Hanyang City has been facing each other like this, and the Qing army is not attacking on a large scale, but only urging the people to fill the river. The Fuming army did not attack, but only used bows and arrows to constantly shoot and kill the people who filled the river. For a time, near the Yong'an Bridge, there were only the shouts and screams of the people filling the river.

On the Hankou side, the Qing army could not attack for a long time, and the morale of the Qing army gradually declined. The charging Qing army and the people are no longer as unhesitating as before. However, the battle situation in Guishan was diametrically opposite, and the charging Qing army and Minzhuang were still fiercely rushing, making the entire front of the defending Restoration Army feel crumbling.

This made the Qing army attacking Guishan feel that the victory of Guishan was just around the corner. This also made the Qing army attacking Guishan high-spirited, and the battle with the Restoration Army became more and more intense. If it weren't for the trenches repaired in advance, it is estimated that the Restoration Army would have been forced to retreat to the top of the mountain.

Dong Erchang, who had been defending on the front line, was now covered in blood, using a knife and pestle on the ground, panting heavily. They had just repelled another wave of Qing attack, and the Qing army had left thousands of corpses and retreated down the mountain.

At this time, Zhou Linyuan came over and said, "Lao Dong, you go back and rest first, let me stay for a while." Dong Erchang gasped twice and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you are a deputy to a regular position, and you can do the ideological work of being a soldier." Let you carry a knife to fight with the Qing army, you are afraid that you don't have the ability. It would be good to go back to the mountains, command the gunners in the city, and support us with artillery. ”

Zhou Linyuan said angrily: "What are you talking about? Can't I, Zhou Linyuan, fight? If Lao Tzu can't fight, how did I take this turtle mountain? ”

Dong Erchang said: "I'm not saying that you can't fight, your head is flexible, and there are many places to use you later." I'm different, I don't have a good head like you, but I have the strength of my own body. What you can do, I can't do, I have to protect you first, and I can't let you have any accidents. ”

Zhou Linyuan was about to say more, Dong Erchang roared: "Hurry up and go back to the top of the mountain, the Qing army is attacking again." Zhou Linyuan had no choice but to retreat to the top of the mountain. Command the artillery in Hanyang City, block the Qing army rushing up the mountain, and support Dong Erchang and others.

After Dong Erchang waited for Zhou Linyuan to leave, he said to the soldiers of the Restoration Army who had just rested for a while: "Brothers, the Qing army looks down on us. Looking at the way they looked, they wanted to take away this turtle mountain today, did you agree? ”

The surrounding soldiers of the Restoration Army all said: "If you don't agree, how can you take Guishan Mountain from us with these bullshit Qing troops under their mountain." If you want to take Turtle Mountain, first ask Lao Tzu if the knife in his hand will agree. We still have to keep the cannon and fight the sailors in the Yangtze River. ”

Another soldier said: "They are naïve, they want to eat the turtle mountain we defend, I don't know if they have such good teeth." ”onclick="hui"
