Chapter 359: The Son of Heaven Breaks the City (Second Update!) Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass! )

This judgment made by Zhu Youlang determined the balance of the offensive and defensive battles in Nanchang.

At this moment, the defects of the city gates wide open are infinitely magnified!

The Tiger Ben army rushed into the city and quickly took control of the west gate of Nanchang City.

Hong Chengchou had already reacted as soon as he saw the chaos in the city, but unfortunately he was still a step too late.

By the time the reinforcements he sent arrived, Ximen had already fallen into the hands of the Ming army.

At this point, it is inevitable that a fierce battle will be avoided.

The Qing army knew very well that if they could not recapture the West Gate, a defeat awaited them.

The longer the time drags on, the more Ming troops will pour into the city, and the worse the situation in the city will be.

When the forces of both sides reach a certain percentage of the city, the situation will get out of control.

At this moment they are no longer fighting for the Qing court, but for themselves.

Because they know very well that if the Ming army takes Nanchang, then they will definitely not survive!

"Kill the thief!"

"The brothers fought for them!"

"Kill one to earn one, kill two to earn a pair!"

The Qing soldiers rushed towards the Ming army like crazy, and they had a posture of breaking the net to the end.

"Hmph, it's not enough!"

Zhao Xu snorted coldly and said, "Mandarin Duck Array!" ”

The Tiger Army attaches great importance to formation training in its daily training.

Not just a few fixed formations, but also random transitions between different formations.

It used Qi Jiguang's way of training Qi Jiajun as a template, supplemented by some ideas of the Son of Heaven, and finally formed a set of effective models.

The Mandarin Duck Formation is a very easy to use formation.

It was originally designed to deal with coastal pirates, and after several improvements, it was also useful in the north.

Of course, the best place to use the Mandarin Duck Array is still in the south.

Probably because the humid environment in the south is not conducive to the use of firearms, and the cooperation of cold weapons can maximize the combat effectiveness.

The large use of vehicle formations and firearms in the north can weaken the formation effect of cold weapons.

But in this kind of street fighting, it is more straightforward to go directly to the knife.

It's just that the Qing army is just a simple sword and shield hand, while the Ming army has a variety of weapons to cooperate with each other.

Zhu Youlang removed some weapons in the Qi family army that were too complicated to adapt to the changes on the battlefield, and retained basic weapons such as rattan cards, spears, swords and shields.

The length and shortness, both offensive and defensive, can be said to be the most reasonable mode of cold weapon street warfare.

Those green battalion soldiers slaughtered violently, but found that they had not yet approached the body of the Ming army, and they were stabbed out of several blood holes by spears.

"Ahh

Cotton armor simply could not resist the power of the spear.

An inch long, an inch strong.

At this moment, the advantage of the spear is vividly manifested.

The Qing soldiers who were poked screamed again and again, and rolled on the ground with their stomachs covered.

Blood trickled down the cracks in their hands, staining the ground bright red.

For a while, the Qing soldiers in the back row were shocked and stopped one by one.

"Don't be afraid, the thief is a paper tiger, fight with them!"

"If you coax it now, you will definitely die, and now you may have a chance to fight for a shot."

Encouraged by the officers, the soldiers regained their courage and rushed towards the Tiger Army.

"Thorn!"

Zhao Xu continued to read the password without hesitation.

In the daily training, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army no longer knew how many thorns they had trained, and these Qing soldiers took the initiative to send them to the door, and they pierced them as easily as a scarecrow.

"Die, Qinggou!"

"Two Tartars are more damned than Tartars!"

"The dog thing that works for the tiger, the ancestor will be ashamed of you!"

The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army stabbed and scolded at the same time, but it was very enjoyable.

"Kill the Tartars!"

Liu Huzi is a recruit trained by Zhao Xu.

Although he has only been in the army for about half a year, Liu Huzi has grown up very quickly and is almost no different from a veteran.

He stabbed a Qing soldier of his age with a spear and kicked him into the air.

At this time, several Qing soldiers on the flank came around, and Liu Huzi's flank was exposed.

"The fifth old man will help me fill in the position!"

Liu Huzi shouted sharply.

"No problem!"

He Lao is five years older than Liu Huzi, and he joined the army earlier than Liu Huzi.

He was extremely experienced, and he raised the rattan card and pushed it outward.

The rattan cards equipped by the Tiger Ben Army are far larger than ordinary shields, almost the height of a person.

He Lao Wu was infinitely powerful, and several Qing soldiers who rushed under this shield were ejected.

"Haha, even if you look like this, you dare to come to Tai Sui's head to break ground."

"Death to the dog thief!"

Liu Huzi's flanks were not in danger, and he let go of his hands and feet and stabbed at the Qing soldiers in front of him.

The Tiger Ben Army has inherited the advantages of the Qi family army very well in terms of mutual cover in robes, and has done the best to complement each other.

It is precisely because of this that the Tiger Army can always earn battle losses when fighting the enemy.

After the Qing soldiers poured into the Ming army's formation, it was like mud and sand mixed into the sea, and it was instantly washed away.

Damn, these Ming troops are too capable of fighting, right?

It is impossible for the Qing soldiers to escape now, so they can only fight to the death.

It's just that they are very divided, and they can only fight separately, and their combat effectiveness is very average.

In close-quarters combat, the role of the sword and shield hand is reflected.

Compared with the sword and shield hands of the Qing army, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army moved more neatly.

The knife falls without dragging the mud and water.

With a swing of the knife, a big head flies.

"Death to the dog thief!"

"A clear dog can't die well!"

And the Qing army not only seems to be inferior to the Tiger Ben Army in terms of frequency of action but also strength.

Don't look at this cut-off gap, but it is infinitely magnified.

In addition, the formation of the Ming army is more reasonable, and it can often form a local advantage of fighting more and fighting less.

The Qing soldiers were like punching on cotton, and they couldn't use their strength. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

"Poof!"

Zhao Wu slashed at the neck of a Qing soldier, but he didn't cut it off.

Blood gushed from the wound like a fountain.

Not long after the Qing soldier was bled out, his legs collapsed to the ground, and his body twitched for a moment before he stopped moving.

Another Qing soldier was stabbed in the lower abdomen with a knife, and he bared his teeth and screamed in pain.

Naturally, the soldiers of the Tiger Army also suffered casualties, but the proportion was far lower than that of the Qing army.

Adequate training and complete protection finally played an important role at this moment.

In the earth-shattering shout of "kill the captives and serve the country", the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army became more and more courageous, but the Qing soldiers became softer and softer like deflated sheepskin rafts.

The weaker the enemy, the stronger I become.

This advantage is infinitely expandable.

Although it is not achieved overnight, it is also accumulated gradually.

The Qing soldiers were gradually killed.

They tried to huddle together to keep warm, at least not so quickly.

"Cheer up, don't be discouraged! There is nothing to be afraid of thieves, fight with them to the end! ”

A Qing general wanted to boost his morale, but the next moment he was blinded by a stray arrow.
