Chapter 276: Surprise Attack on Shengjing (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)

It was a snowy dawn, and the endless snow, as in the past, shrouded Liaodong in ice and snow. The biting cold wind forced people to rarely go out, and only a few people begged for a living, driving their cars and horses to walk on the road full of ice and snow, and Shengjing City naturally lost the bustle and hustle and bustle of the past.

In fact, since a few months ago, after the emperor ordered all the soldiers and horses and distributed the Eight Banners Ding Zhuang, the princes and Baylors in Shengjing City also led the minions to go out to rob the Han people, this is an opportunity to make a fortune!

Because more than 100,000 people were requisitioned, almost all the adult men of the Eight Banners were requisitioned, so only the old and weak women and children were left inside and outside the city, and at most there were some Han people. For a time, the Shengjing City became sparsely populated.

Because of the small number of people, the soldiers guarding the city gate also became very slack, the weapons were leaned against the cave wall of the city gate, they kept rubbing their hands, cursing the ghost weather, so that they did not have the opportunity to go to the west or the Central Plains to rob the Han, occasionally a few Han people driving a firewood cart passed by, and the soldiers did not bother to check and pass with them.

"There seems to be some movement."

Although they complained in their hearts that they had missed the opportunity to rob the Han people to make a fortune, the soldiers guarding the city gate still picked up their weapons when they heard the movement in the snow, and although the heavy snow blocked their view, they could still vaguely see a team of soldiers and horses coming.

Horses and soldiers coming back from the west?

Turiji, who was wearing a bearskin coat, squinted his eyes and looked towards the end of the road, because the snow was flying and blocking his view, so he couldn't see the people at all, listening to the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, and when the team of people and horses slowly approached the city gate, he finally saw who the group of people was.

It's a man with a red flag.

I don't know if the master came back from the west?

The guards of the gate also hurriedly stood by the gate so as not to block the way, squinting in confusion at these snow-covered cavalry.

"I wonder who led the troops?"

During Turiji's check, the leader directly threw a waist card and replied in a blunt Jurchen dialect.

"It was on the emperor's order to escort the injured Beile Ye back to Beijing."

Several Belle Lords were actually injured!

No wonder there were more than a dozen carriages, so many masters were injured, and they were sent back.

It's not an easy battle!

In a trance, Turiji seemed to be a little wrong, but he couldn't tell where it was wrong, there was no problem with this waist card, as for

Soldiers and horses should be fine.

But it seemed a little wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Although his heart was wrong, Turiji still let people into the city.

What's wrong?

Even Turiji can't say why, the people and horses who can go to the Shengjing City of the Great Qing Kingdom, apart from the people and horses of the Great Qing Kingdom, who else can they be?

In any case, Turiji could not guess that these cavalry were nothing more than Ming troops wearing Qing army armor, after all, for them, even if they dreamed, they probably could not have imagined that the Ming army would suddenly appear under Shengjing City. After all, even fools know that the Ming army is on the Jinzhou side, and even if they fly, they can't fly to Sheng

In this way, this horse team of more than 1,000 riders entered Shengjing City from outside the gate in the wind and snow, and their speed into the city was neither fast nor slow. When almost a hundred horses entered, there were dozens of riders retreated to both sides of the road, when they intentionally or unintentionally approached the horse road on the city wall, the head of the soldier guarding the horse road was puzzled and ready to come forward to ask a few words, suddenly, he saw those cavalry moved, he couldn't help but be stunned, then he saw that the man also drew the knife, he subconsciously just wanted to scream, only to see the cavalry in the wind and snow smiling and rushing over, the knife in the man's hand suddenly cut over, he only felt a cold under the neck, a sharp pain hit the heart and lungs.

"Ah......h

The soldiers with their mouths wide open didn't even have time to scream, and their heads were separated from their necks.

"Ah......h

The soldier next to him was about to scream in shock, when the knife also fell on his body, and blood sprayed out violently, splashing all over the horse road. The sudden attack made the Qing troops on both sides of the horse road not react in a hurry at all, and watched these cavalry ride their horses and rush up the city wall.

"You ...... Yes! ”

The movement inside the city gate made Turiji just want to shout to ask the identity of the other party, when he saw a bearded rider smiling and knocking him to the ground from his horse, and before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.

"Ah...... Woo ......"

Turiji, who opened his mouth wide, only felt as if he had lost all his strength all at once, and at this time, Turiji heard someone shouting.

"Kill!"

"They're ...... dogs"

When Turiji's consciousness changed, he heard a burst of screams from the cave in the city gate, and the soldiers were cut down to the ground by the cavalry before they could even react. Under the impact of weapons, soon, the battle in the city gate hole was over.

In the midst of the melee, more and more cavalry poured into the outer gate and flocked to the main gate of the Manchu capital.

"Forward, forward, kill in the direction of the palace!"

Ding Pengcheng, who led the troops into Shengjing, gave an order while leading the men and horses from the horse road next to the city gate all the way to the arrow tower of the city wall. At this time, only a few Qing troops on the arrow tower had been cut down by the officers and soldiers who rushed up earlier.

In fact, even to death, the Qing army on the arrow tower did not know that it would be the Ming army that would enter the city, and they even thought that it was the Belle Lord who was making trouble.

Even when the cavalry of the brigade poured into Shenyang City from the outer gate, along the road covered with ice and snow, slashing and killing pedestrians on the road as they went, there were still officials with red roofs on their heads shouting and asking.

"Who are you? It's the minions of that flag......"

What awaited him was the knife and gun that slashed the man to the ground, and his lifeless body fell to the snow. The cavalry rode through the streets, slashing at anyone they met.

At the same time that Ding Pengcheng led hundreds of cavalry to kill the city, the carts were also dragged by horses along the horse road to the city, as soon as the cart went to the city, the coachmen hurriedly lifted the artillery from the cart, the short and light nine-pound mountain howitzer, aimed at the front from the city, aimed at Shengjing...... No, it's aimed at Shenyang City.

Although the wind and snow obscured their view, the gunners directly stuffed the shells into the barrels without asking, and then fired without hesitation, and the shells immediately whistled towards the city.

For a while, there were explosions everywhere in the city, and the gunners on these city walls did not aim at all, and the order they received was to hit the cannonballs into the city as much as possible, as for the target, it could be any target, the palace, the palace, the yamen, the houses, ......
