The Qing soldiers on duty at the Fengtian Gate would never believe that in the middle of the night, a group of dead soldiers with machetes would rush towards them.

Many Qing soldiers were still asleep when they were hurriedly woken up by their companions, and hurriedly raised their knives to meet them.

They are equal in number, but they are completely unprepared and clueless, and they do not have any advantage.

Moreover, at this moment, the Qing generals in charge of the defense of this gate were still asleep, and the Qing soldiers were a little passive for a while.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty strictly forbade ordinary people to possess crossbows and firearms. However, it is not forbidden to use bows and arrows and horizontal knives in general.

Like the nursing homes of wealthy businessmen and giants, they all choose their own sharp swordsmen, and their knife skills are extremely fierce. It's just that large-scale operations are not as skilled as the army, and they become the climate.

But in the chaotic battle, there was no discipline on both sides, and the ruthlessness of the nurses reflected the advantage.

Liu Xingming and others threw grenades at the Qing soldiers in the chaotic battle, and for a time the Qing soldiers' positions were blown up, crying for their fathers and mothers.

Liu Xingming was overjoyed when he saw this, and it was not difficult to open the city gate according to this momentum. It seems that it is possible to report to the Ming army.

He took out a prepared firework canister and lit it on the ground, only to hear the swish of fireworks fly into the sky.

Brilliant fireworks burst into the dark night sky, and they were very vivid.

Li Laiheng, who was outside the city, was shocked when he saw the fireworks.

"Xingming has signaled."

"It's Fengtianmen!"

"Pass my general order and storm Fengtianmen!"

The Ming army had already adjusted its work and rest, and it was sleepy at the moment.

Under Li Laiheng's order, tens of thousands of troops went to Jiujiang City to kill Fengtianmen.

The sound of killing shook the sky, which naturally alarmed the Qing army in the city.

They rushed to the head of the city one after another, and the Qing soldiers who were already stationed at the head of the city also began to turn the winch together and lift the Yaksha and other city defense equipment.

Although the Ming army launched a night attack within their plan, it was still a bit of a hurry to launch it.

Wu Kuan and Zhao Liben also hurried to the head of the city and found that the direction of the Ming army's onslaught was Fengtianmen.

Zhao Li was still in doubt, but he heard a loud bang, but the city gate was broken!

Zhao Liben was shocked, and Wu Kuan's face turned pale.

All this was completely unexpected by him.

The thieves actually sent spies into the city and opened the city gates in advance.

This is to break through the city from the inside and outside!

"Quick, send reinforcements to Fengtianmen. I will take back the Fengtian Gate at all costs! ”

Wu Kuan's reaction was quite fast, and he immediately dispatched troops to block this opening.

But the Ming army pinched the time just right, and the moment the city gate opened, the Ming army that attacked the city gate happened to be able to pour in.

Soon, thousands of Ming soldiers entered Jiujiang City along the Fengtian Gate!

Li Laiheng had already made a full set of plans before, and these vanguard troops also acted exactly according to the plan.

Entering the city, they did not blindly spread, but built simple fortifications around the Fengtian Gate.

Fortifications were everywhere, sacks, stones, and even deer firewood, and they simply built them to form barricades and bunkers.

With these bunker barricades, they can delay as much time as possible and allow more Ming soldiers to rush into the city!

...

...

At present, time is the most precious thing for the soldiers of the Ming and Qing armies.

Wu Kuan even personally rushed down the city from the horse road to supervise, but when he led his troops to Fengtianmen, he was dumbfounded.

The Ming army has already set up bunkers and barricades in advance!

In any case, this city gate must be recaptured, and Wu Kuan didn't want to fight in the streets with these Ming soldiers. This is not his advantage, not to mention that the Qing army is not superior in numbers.

Under Wu Kuan's strict order, the Qing soldiers rushed forward one by one.

Liu Xingming ordered the soldiers to throw the last grenades. They brought a limited number of grenades, and this batch ran out of them.

But it can be delayed for a while.

Dozens of grenades were smashed at the Qing soldiers, and for a time they exploded in all directions, reflecting the night like day.

The huge power of the grenade caused many Qing soldiers to be directly torn apart, and there were no corpses left.

Blood flowed all over the floor, and the air smelled of burning.

For a while, the Qing soldiers who were charging all stopped, and their eyes revealed incomparable fear.

Death itself is not the most horrific thing, but this tragic way of death.

They can't accept such a tragic death!

Seeing this, Wu Kuan was so angry that he jumped to his feet: "The thief's firearms are limited, don't stop, rush up, give me a top!" ”

He ordered his own troops to step forward and drive away the stopped Qing soldiers.

These Qing soldiers had no choice but to rush forward.

But it really seems that things are as the chief soldier said.

The Ming army didn't throw out that terrible thing again.

Instead, there was a dense rain of arrows.

Although from time to time Qing soldiers were shot and fell, the oppressive and deterrent power brought by arrows was far inferior to that of grenades.

The Qing soldiers also mustered up their courage and became more and more courageous.

Seeing that the Qing soldiers were about to rush to the bunkers and barricades, Liu Xingming yelled: "Come on, get gunpowder." ”

Previously, the Ming army had prepared a lot of gunpowder, preparing to dig tunnels and use coffins to blow up the city walls.

But because Liu Xingming opened the Fengtian Gate in time, this plan became an alternative.

But gunpowder was abundant and readily available.

A group of soldiers carried the gunpowder of a coffin in front of them, and Liu Xingming ordered the coffin to be pushed forward more than ten steps.

Then he ordered someone to light the fuse!

With a hissing sound, the fuse gradually ignited and rushed towards the coffin.

Everyone held their breath and waited for the moment of the explosion.

But the soldiers were completely unaware of the danger.

When they saw that the Ming army had pushed a coffin over, they thought they were performing some kind of magic spell.

Suddenly, there was a bang, and the coffin was blown away.

The huge impact force directly set off the Qing soldiers in front of them, and many Qing soldiers were directly killed.

Wu Kuan, who was in the distance, was directly frightened.

What the hell is this, it's even more terrifying than artillery fire.

It's a pity that all those cannons are placed at the head of the city, and they don't have time to adjust them for a while.

Otherwise, Wu Kuan really wanted to order someone to directly take the cannon to bombard.

With the passage of time, more and more Ming soldiers poured into the city, and there were already more than 3,000 people.

Although there were 5,000 soldiers transferred by Wu Kuan to seize the door, they did not have an advantage locally.

What's more, the Ming army has just carried out the explosion of the coffin, and the psychological impact on the Qing army is too great.

In a short period of time, Wu Kuan estimated that no soldiers would dare to rush forward again.

In desperation, Wu Kuan could only mobilize more soldiers to prepare for street battles with the Ming army.

At this point, Liu Xingming's hanging heart can finally be put down.

The Qing troops only besieged but did not attack, and they were obviously instigated.

In fact, Liu Xingming has no backhand. After the gunpowder of that coffin was blown up, they could only fight with knives.

The Qing army chose to deal with it conservatively at this time, which was the best answer for the Ming army.

Liu Xingming was very confident that as long as they guarded the city gate, the soldiers would enter the city safely. Victory must belong to the Ming army.
