The Ming defense line began to loosen.

Realizing this, Chi Erhan quickly ordered to stop the arrow attack and led his troops to launch a diversion attack on the Qing army from the flank.

But it's still too late.

The cavalry of the Qing army exchanged their lives for their lives in a frenzied manner, forcibly broke through the defense line of the Zhou Dahu Department and the Liruhai Department, and tore the second division into a hole several zhang wide.

The Qing army poured into the city of Hangzhou like a flood.

The tide of battle is changing rapidly.

Wu Zheng and Wang Yilin beside him suddenly changed their faces.

Wu Zheng immediately ordered the city to defend the army, but in fact, at this time, Wu Zheng was no longer worried.

After the forcible resistance of the three divisions, the Ming army that had been scattered before had completed the encirclement and was shrinking in the direction of Hangzhou City.

In other words, it won't take too long, as long as a pillar of incense is in time, the Ming army from ten miles away will arrive.

Although the number of people in the city is small, but with the support of artillery, there is still hope for the time to withstand a pillar of incense.

Chen Shoujie has been ordered to open fire.

This was the second shelling today, and Wu Zheng's order was to fire all the shells, even if they exploded, they must not stop.

The shelling here is no longer aimed at killing the enemy, but only delays and stops the enemy.

The salvo of sixty-three guns roared, causing mud flowers to bloom in the area two or three miles outside the city wall.

The cavalry of the Eight Banners shuttled through it, and from time to time there were cavalry who were shaken away by the air waves, and a large number of war horses, because they were afraid, and people neighed and lifted off the soldiers on the horses.

But after all, it was impossible to stop the Tartar cavalry from approaching the walls.

Behind the Tartars, Chi Erhan and Li Ruhai were full of heart, and frantically commanded the army to chase after him.

While running, he didn't even pay attention to the Tatar infantry who passed by.

They have only one goal, to send back reinforcements!

Seeing the Tartar cavalry advancing to a mile in front of the city wall, Wu Zheng and Wang Yilin glanced at each other, "choking" and drawing their swords, ready to fight to the death.

But the tide of battle changed again, and the Tartar cavalry suddenly turned.

Turn north outside Qingchun Gate.

A huge arc was drawn, and the crossbow arrows fired by the defenders on the city wall all missed.

What's even more strange is that the Tartar infantry who passed by Chi Erhan and the others immediately turned around and also headed north.

Be all abroad!

Wu Zheng only had these four words in his mind.

The Tartars are going to attack the North Gate?

Interesting?

Obviously, there is hope to capture the Qingchun Gate and kill himself, why did Duoduo turn to the North Gate?

Although the defenders of the North Gate are only five hundred, compared to the Qing army that has been close to the city wall, the artillery on the city wall of Qingchun Gate has lost its effectiveness, even if the artillery participates in the battle, there are more than 600 people in Qingchun Gate, why bother to attack the North Gate?

This is inconsistent with Wu Zheng's imagination, Duoduo's temperament, Qingchunmen has his own presence, isn't Duoduo thinking about killing himself to vent his anger?

Moreover, even if Duoduo led the army to capture the north gate, once the three armies on his side met, the controllable army would reach more than 40,000 people.

With such a disparity in strength, can Duoduo be sure to block his full counterattack with the power of one force?

Wu Zheng was really stunned.

The battlefield became very strange, and Chi Erhan and the others, who were out of breath, were also stupid, and watched in a daze as the whole army of Tartars turned around, standing in place and covering the circle.

Almost watching the back of the Tartar go away.

Then again, at this time, even if Chi Erhan and the others wanted to chase, they would not have the strength to chase.

At this time, seeing that Wu Zheng on the city wall was unhindered, and the tight strings had already been relaxed, how could he still have the strength and mind to pursue?

The whole person is soft.

The Ming army, which had completed the encirclement and rushed in the direction of the city, was still three or four miles away.

Such a time difference was firmly grasped by Duoduo.

Duoduo understands people's hearts very well, he knows that once the city gate is in danger, the first thing that all the Ming troops who block him will only think of is to return to help.

Four or five miles away from the city gate, even if it is a cow, it will not have the strength to rush down.

And the Eight Banners Army charged cavalry, and the four- or five-mile road was not a problem at all.

As for the Eight Banners infantry, they almost watched Chi Erhan and other troops come back to help, and they didn't even stop it, so they saved their strength and turned north.

The Ming army that rose behind him was beyond the reach of the whip.

As a result, a transfer that can almost be said to be lossless was staged under Wu Zheng's nose.

It can be described as hearty.

Wu Zheng, who got an urgent report from the defenders of Genshan Gate, came to his senses.

Rather than besiege the city, Dodor retreated.

The Tartar passed by the Genshan Gate, and without even looking at the city gate, he walked away.

And the urgent report he got next made Wu Zheng completely figure out Duoduo's intentions.

The city of Jiaxing was recovered.

This explains why Duoduo broke through to the north first, because with his army of 7,000 men, he couldn't go back.

Wu Zheng did not order a pursuit.

Because there is no need, north of Hangzhou is Deqing, which is at least the territory of the Tartars for the time being.

In addition, after today's battle, the general is tired and tired, and there is no sharpness to pursue.

If you are ambushed by Duoduo again, it will be more than worth the loss.

For Duoduo's previous strong counterattack, the Ming army soldiers had lingering fears.

With the return of the Ming army in the east, the three armies met, and the cheering waves resounded outside the Qingchun Gate.

This battle was indeed not easy to win, and it can be said to be thrilling.

Three folds and three ups, like a dream.

All those involved in the war have the right to be proud, even if it is the Ming army that has been broken up before.

Because if they hadn't returned to Hewei, Chi Erhan and the others would not have been able to resist Duoduo's more than 7,000 Eight Banners Army.

The deterrence formed by these more than 30,000 people made Duoduo have to choose to retreat north.

Although he ran Duoduo, Wu Zheng gained a lot, not to mention the stabilization of Hangzhou City and the people's hearts earned, let's say that the remnants of Duoduo retreated, and the eight artillery pieces left behind had already made Wu Zheng and Chen Shoujie and his son grin.

This is a 1,600 jin and 2,000 jin decent Ming red-coated cannon, not like the imitation Western cannon in Wu Zheng's hand now.

Not only is the range long, but also the power is incomparable.

Chen Shoujie was excited to hold the cannon and not let go, so he almost kissed it.

It is no wonder that people who love artillery, seeing the loss of artillery one by one, and now seeing them back for the first time, the excitement in their hearts is understandable.

The people in the city cheered and flocked to the city gate, such a battle with a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and us, and ended in the complete victory of the Ming army, it was really worth celebrating.

Before it got dark, fireworks were already burning in the city, and the sound of firecrackers was almost the same as the sound of artillery.

This was a battle that changed the pattern of power in Jiangnan.

As long as anyone who knows a little about the current situation understands that the power of the Tatars south of Suzhou will disappear because of this battle.

Hangzhou City, at this time, can be regarded as truly recovered.

The people cried with joy, even if the Ming Dynasty was dark, but as a Ming person, they still cherished their homeland.

They celebrated with joy, exchanging the food they had for wine, and had no intention of continuing their lives.

Sleepless tonight!
