Chapter 299: The Tiger Ben Army Joins Forces with the Zheng Family Army (Second Update!) Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass! )

I don't know if I don't see this, but when I look at it, it startles Zheng Jing and Li Shishi.

It is true that this kind of thing is not something that can be done well with enthusiasm alone.

Maybe they can still resist one or two when they meet the ordinary miscellaneous army king Er Mazi, and they really encounter the powerful Eight Banners Army, and they only have to be slaughtered.

Li Shishi took the trouble to explain to the soldiers how to defend the city, as small as when to throw rolling wood and stones, when to shoot arrows, when to pour boiling oil and gold juice.

There are two reasons for this.

One is that he really wants to see someone stand up against the Qing Dynasty besides the Son of Heaven, King Jin, and King Zhong. Of course, this will take time and cost, so Li Shishi is willing to teach as much as he can.

Second, they are now grasshoppers on a rope, Jiaozhou City can't hold it, not only can he not complete the mission given to him by the Son of Heaven, it is likely that the whole army will have to fold here.

Zheng Jing's attitude is probably similar, and he still agrees with what Li Shishi said.

If you want to hold Jiaozhou, you can't just rely on him and Li Shishi, 10,000 people. All soldiers, even the youngest, had to do their best.

Only by perfecting the details can you not fall behind when the Tartars are attacking the city.

While the Tartars are not yet here, teach these soldiers as basic skills as possible.

Of course, it's impossible to be perfect.

In such a short period of time, I can only pick up the important teachings, and as for how the soldiers can learn, it depends on the creation.

In fact, Zheng Jing himself didn't know much about the skills of defending the city.

After all, the Zheng family started out as a maritime business, and Zheng Jing was better at commanding naval battles than others. This is engraved in the bones, and it cannot be easily changed.

When Li Shishi explained, Zheng Jing was also listening very carefully, hoping to learn a thing or two from it.

Li Shishi went into battle hand and foot, and danced hand and foot, which can be regarded as teaching the soldiers some basic things.

As for the effect, we can only wait until the Qing army attacks the city.

But one thing is certain, at least it is a big improvement from before he taught.

"General Wang, the Tartars have been killed!"

At this moment, the words of the pro-soldier made everyone's hearts rise to their throats.

Although Zheng Jing and Li Shishi have experienced many large and small battles, it is actually the first time that the two of them have faced a great enemy alone.

They actually don't know what this battle can be, so they can only cross the river by feeling the stones.

"The order will go down, and the whole army will enter a wartime state, and the people will be ready to go to the city at any time to help defend the city."

Wang Er Mazi's reaction was still very fast, since this day was coming sooner or later, it would be better to come earlier.

"His Royal Highness, General Li, the city is in danger, why don't you go to the county government first?"

"General Wang, what are you talking about, didn't you ask the soldiers to poke our backbones? I, Li, am here, and I'm not going anywhere. ”

Zheng Jing also nodded and agreed: "One more person, one more strength." and the son of this world shall stay at the head of the city. ”

Seeing this, Wang Er Mazi no longer persuaded him, but only nodded and said, "So it's hard for the two of you." ”

...

...

"Woo woo, woo woo, woo woo..."

With the muffled sound of bull's horns, the siege of the Qing army began.

Now it seems that the fort group set up by the rebel army outside Jiaozhou City is of little use, and it does not even stop the Qing soldiers for much time.

At the forefront were the Green Battalion soldiers, who trotted all the way up the ladder.

The Ming army had no artillery available, so they could only watch the Qing army rush to the foot of the city.

This distance is not very effective with arrows, so you can only wait for the Qing soldiers to rush closer.

Forbearance, now there is only forbearance.

When the Qing army rushed to a distance of only one hundred and fifty steps from the city wall, Li Shishi ordered: "Archers prepare." ”

This order was given to him with the five thousand tiger troops.

Because he was skeptical about the archery ability of the rebels.

Even the Tiger Army, after a year, has only completed a salvo.

As for accuracy, you can't be demanding.

Firearms are easier to use than archery.

It's just that the number of guns and cannons of the Tiger Army is limited, and this trip only brought a certain amount of flintlock ammunition, and even if they want to use it, they must not be used at the critical time.

As for the grenades, I brought a lot, this thing has already achieved mass production, at least the Tiger Ben Army can be fully equipped inside.

One hundred and fifty steps is still a long way off, and even if you shoot it from the top of the city, the arrow will look soft.

So Li Shishi just asked the archers to prepare, but did not let the archers immediately release the arrows.

He was waiting for the Qing army to rush closer.

One hundred and thirty steps, one hundred steps...

Now is the time!

"Shoot the arrows!"

Li Shi shouted, and the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army shot arrows one after another.

The arrows in the sky were woven into a large net, and they went towards the charging Qing soldiers.

Unlike the Eight Banners, ordinary Green Battalion soldiers were only wearing ordinary cloth armor.

Therefore, even ordinary arrows can pose a great threat to them.

From time to time, the Qing soldiers were shot by arrows and let out screams.

Those who were shot in the eyes were the worst, desperately trying to pull out the arrows, but this was only hastening death.

"General Li is mighty!"

Seeing this, Wang Er Mazi felt a little more at ease.

It would be nice if his subordinates also had the execution power of the Tiger Army.

The Tiger Benjun not only has strong execution, but also has a high level of archery, which he is really envious of.

Seeing this, Zheng Jing naturally didn't want to be left behind, and after glancing at Gan Hui, he ordered: "The whole army prepares, shoot arrows!" ”

Similar to the Tiger Army, the Zheng Army was more accustomed to using firearms.

But being accustomed to using firearms doesn't mean they don't know how to use bows and crossbows.

In a way, the Zheng Jiajun's proficiency in using bows and arrows was even stronger than that of the Tiger Benjun because they had been in contact for a longer time.

It usually takes at least three years to train a good archer, sometimes even longer.

The addition of the Zheng army made the density of bows and arrows greater, and the Qing army suffered heavy casualties in the process of attacking.

But Zishiha didn't panic at all.

In his opinion, these green battalion soldiers are just cannon fodder for the charge, and it doesn't matter if they are all dead.

Anyway, when the time comes, Jiaozhou will be taken and the strong men will be caught on the spot, and then there will be tens of thousands of green battalion soldiers.

As long as the main force of the Eight Banners is not damaged, they can suppress these chaotic people at any time, and the green battalion soldiers will also be deterred, and they will willingly die for the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, in Ji Xiha's opinion, how to preserve the strength of the Eight Banners Army is his primary consideration now.

Until the last moment, he will not send the Eight Banners.

The strength of the Ming army gave Wang Er Mazi confidence, and he ordered his soldiers to join the ranks of archery.

It's just that these patchwork rabble are obviously not the level of the Zheng Jiajun and the Tiger Army, their arrows shoot crookedly, and their strength is also soft, not to mention that they can't kill the enemy or kill the chicken.

Wang Er Mazi was extremely embarrassed, and kept coughing to cover up.
