In Miyun City, Adun didn't sleep well all night, there was a black line around the old man's eyes, and he sent seven heralds to Pinggu overnight to ask for help, and none of them came back so far, which made him very anxious.

When Adun was about to eat some breakfast, he saw a soldier running hurriedly and said, "My lord, the Ming army is attacking the city!" ”

Adun was taken aback, why didn't the crown prince of the Ming Kingdom play his cards according to the routine? He doesn't care about the hundreds of thousands of people in Miyun City? What about righteousness? What about the way of the saints? Ah Dun Rao knew Da Ming very well, and he also became confused at this time.

He was even more depressed in his heart, although the Ming army had 10,000 people, half of them were cavalry, and only a few thousand people could attack the city.

By what means did they attack the city? Firebolt? I've heard that this part of the Ming army is sharp, but the siege effect is not great, so you can't shoot while climbing the city, right?

"It seems that this Ming army is going to fight to the death with my Qing soldiers!" Ah Dun was worried, he was afraid that the Ming army would fight hard with him, it didn't matter how many other flags died, his yellow flag was personally led by the emperor, and it was not good to return to Shengjing if there were too many casualties......

"Quickly let the people of the Ming Kingdom go to the city to defend, who dares to disobey and kill on the spot!" After giving the order, Adun hurried to the south gate, and before he could climb the tower, he heard the roar of artillery outside the city.

Ah Dun hurriedly kicked the city tower in a few steps, and just poked his head out to look into the distance, only to hear a black iron bullet flying above his head, which frightened Ah Dun to fall on the spot.

The old slave Nurhachi was destroyed by the Hongyi cannon in Jinzhou that year, as the old slave's guard, Adun was next to him at the time, witnessed the history with his own eyes, and was stunned when he heard the sound of artillery.

Ah Dun fell to the ground and was scared out of a cold sweat, and said in his heart: It's so dangerous, I almost went to see Lao Khan.

The iron bullet smashed a cornice on the city tower, and the tiles and remnants of wood fell one after another, and Adun, who was clever, was another clever, and the Tartar generals beside him immediately helped him up.

Adun walked to the side of the city tower, and stretched out his head to look, only to see that the Ming army array was neatly arranged under the city, there were about dozens of artillery pieces lined up in front of the array, and there was a trench two zhang wide and half a zhang deep in front of the artillery array, and dozens of artillery guns fired at the city gate of Miyun City in unison, and the momentum was very impressive.

Zhu Cihong didn't plan to let the soldiers kick the ladder to attack the city at all, and directly used the Hongyi cannon to forcibly blast open the city gate! This is not only simple and rude, but also protects the walls and the people from harm.

The sound of artillery bombardment under the city continued to be heard, some hit the city wall, some hit the city tower, some smashed on the city gate, and there was not a single living person within twenty or thirty steps of the city tower, and the Tartars had already flashed aside.

Not only the south gate, but also the west gate was also attacked, and the city gate had already been hit by a lot of cannonballs, and the cannonballs fell on the city gate panel, only to smash "dong dong" straight sound, as if it could be smashed open by cannonballs at any time.

In the past, the artillery of the Ming army was generally used as a weapon to defend the city, and no one thought that it would be used to attack the city, and Adun naturally did not expect that the artillery could be used in this way.

Thinking of defending the city, Ah Dun hurriedly said: "Hurry up and use artillery to fight back!" ”

The captured Ming artillerymen in Miyun City were driven up to the city wall, and brought gunpowder shells, and began to load and fire cannons in a hurry.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

More than a dozen artillery pieces on Miyun City began to counterattack, and Ah Dun lay on the battlements and looked out of the city, waiting for the shells to fall into the position of the Ming army, and felt a little relieved, and finally could counterattack.

However, after more than a dozen shells fell one after another, most of them only hit more than 200 steps, which was still far from the position of the Ming army, although a few hit a little farther, hitting a mile away, but the shells bounced on the ground a few times, and then moved forward dozens of steps, and finally rolled into the trench in front of the Ming army's artillery array.

Most of the cannons on Miyun City are Franco, with a range of only 200 paces, and a few six-pounder Hongyi cannons have a range of only one mile, which does not pose a threat to the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion at all.

The Shenji Battalion brought more than twelve pounds of Hongyi cannons this time, and it was easy to fight two or three miles away, Wang Wannian was very proud, it was only a matter of time before the city gate was broken, and this Shenji Battalion was won!

The artillery of the Shenji Battalion is still firing like a city tower, and the city gate is almost unbearable, dozens of holes have been smashed in the middle of the city gate, and huge cracks have appeared around the city gate.

A quarter of an hour later, a soldier came to report to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, the city gate has been blasted open!" ”

Zhu Cihong saw clearly through the binoculars, and he immediately said: "Order, the musketeers march in formation, and after entering the city, they will use the sentry as a unit to clean up the Tartars in the city!" The cavalry of the Divine Battalion followed! ”

Zhang Shize has no objection to the crown prince's arrangement, the Shenshu camp has already made a lot of contributions, and it is a bit unreasonable to grab the credit for entering the city.

In fact, Zhu Cihong did not simply let the Yongwei battalion make meritorious contributions, although it was better to enter the city and use cavalry to charge to open the way, but there were four or five thousand Tartar soldiers in the city, and it was no problem for the young master soldiers of the Shenshu battalion to pursue and defeat the soldiers, if they really did it, it would be a bit hanging.

The drums of war beat, the musketeers of the Brave Guard Battalion advance in layers according to the ranks, and the shieldmen guard around the musketeers, fending off the bows and arrows of the Tartars on the walls.

Seeing the dense Ming army pouring into the city gate, Ah Dun, who was standing on the city wall, was like ashes, and he muttered: "The city gate ...... Is this broken? ”

I think that when they captured Miyun, it took a lot of effort and thousands of Qing warriors died, but I didn't expect that now they were blasted away by the Ming army without a single soldier.

Adun really wanted to go back alive, bring this new method of warfare to the Qing Dynasty, and tell the banners that now the Qing Dynasty has a lot of artillery, and when the time comes, it will be able to blast open the city gate of Jinzhou, break the mountain customs, and enter the hinterland of the Ming Kingdom from the main road.......

However, he had little chance, and not only was the south gate blasted open, but the west gate was also broken, and a large number of musketeers from the Yongwei battalion rushed into the city gate under the escort of shield soldiers.

The other side of the city gate hole was full of Tartar soldiers, seeing that the Ming army rushed in and drew their bows and arrows, for a time ten thousand arrows were fired, and a large number of musketeers in the front row of the Yongwei battalion fell, and the shield soldiers who covered the musketeers entering the city on both wings hurriedly held their shields to avoid the casualties of the Yongwei battalion.

Several artillerymen of the Yongwei battalion carried the tiger squat cannon to the front of the city gate hole, and under the cover of the shield soldiers, aimed the tiger squat cannon loaded with shotguns at the Tartar soldiers blocking the city gate hole.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

After a few sounds, a large number of steel balls, lead bullets, and stones erupted, and the Tartar soldiers in front of the city gate were shot into a hornet's nest.

As soon as they entered the city, the musketeers lined up in three rows to strike indiscriminately at the surrounding Qing troops, and the Qing troops also returned fire with bows and arrows.

Dozens of artillerymen of the Yongwei battalion in the rear team all carried tiger squatting cannons into the city to support, and all of them loaded shotguns and fired indiscriminately at the Qing troops surrounding the city gate.

The Qing army saw that the Ming army's firepower was so fierce, how could they come forward to rush forward and kill, retreating again and again, while the Yongwei battalion was advancing in several rows in a burst of drums, loading and shooting while moving forward.

The Qing army was a little dazed by these sharp firearms, and began to scatter in the streets, blocking residential houses, and began street fighting.

The Yongwei battalion was based on the sentry unit, and dozens of people were still in three rows in parallel, cleaning up the streets one by one, and the gunfire in Miyun City continued for a while.

A quarter of an hour after the musketeers of the Brave Guard Battalion entered the city, the cavalry battalion and the Shenshu battalion also launched a full-scale attack, charging the Tartars in the streets.
