The Ming army continued to approach, but Altan Khan was still confused.

That's not right!

Isn't this Ming army coach crazy?

Are you kidding?

This Songshan Fort can be garrisoned by 50,000 foot soldiers!

The Ming army's men and horses, the blind can count them!

The total number of Ming troops is less than 100,000, this is absolutely true, after separating half of the defense and left, there are less than 50,000 left, and then counting the artillery arranged a mile away, the Ming army has a total of 20,000 people, there is absolutely no doubt about this, with the approach of more than 20,000 Ming troops, inexperienced people are counted clearly.

Is there a mistake that 20,000 horses attack a fortress garrisoned by 50,000 men?

Not to mention whether Songshan Fort can be captured, it is a question of whether these 20,000 horses can rush to the city wall!

At this time, the shield wall on the city wall had been erected, and behind the shield wall, rows and rows of archers were already waiting.

The commander of the Ming army seemed to have something really wrong, and let the 20,000 horses continue to approach the city wall, and there was no other action, and even the artillery did not bombard.

Five hundred, four hundred, three hundred, two hundred steps, as the 20,000 Ming army approached, Altan Khan slowly discovered a problem.

These Ming troops are hiding behind the chariots!

In other words, the archers he prepared were almost useless, and it was impossible for the arrows to penetrate the chariot, so there was no need to think about it.

At this time, he also thought of rockets, if he had enough rockets in his hand, a burst of fire and rain down, the Ming army's chariot was scrapped, and the Ming army's foot soldiers hiding behind the chariot became a target.

It's a pity that there is a shortage of materials on the grassland, and they basically don't have any oil for stir-frying, even if it is fat on cattle and sheep, it is all a hot item.

People with a little experience know that fat fat is the most hungry, not to mention, the fat fat is indescribably fragrant and attractive when roasted over fire, and there are more people who like to eat.

Therefore, the fat of cattle and sheep has been eaten, and on the grassland, there is no fire oil, rockets or anything, there is no way to talk about it.

There were no rockets, and he had to attack with ordinary arrows, and as soon as the Ming army approached about one hundred and fifty paces, he gave the order, and the archers began to throw.

The rain of arrows on the city wall was sparsely falling, but the chariots of the Ming army did not mean to stop at all, Yu Dayou casually pulled away a few oncoming bows and arrows, and his face was still calm.

This kind of siege battle is simply too simple, because the wall of Songshan Fort is about one zhang high, and the height of the roof of the chariot is almost the same, as long as the chariot is close to the city wall, and then the soldiers are ordered to climb on the roof of the chariot and jump up, there is no difficulty at all.

Now, the only problem is the Tartar shield wall, and the only way to destroy the Tartar wall and then attack it with muskets and artillery will cause chaos on the defenders of the wall, and they will not suffer heavy casualties when they rush up the wall.

By this time, the chariot under his command was less than a hundred paces from the city wall, and it was time to release the rockets.

Without hesitation, he ordered: "Stop, set up, ignite, shoot all the rockets." ”

As he gave the order, the 4,000 chariots gradually approached, and the 20,000 foot soldiers quickly lit the torches, then picked up the longbow on the chariot, took out the rockets that had been prepared, lit them, and shot them at the city wall.

The rockets shot like a rain of fire towards the city wall, and Altan Khan was stunned again, when did the Ming army lose so many bows?

A salvo of 20,000 people and a salvo of 4,000 or 5,000 people is not an effect at all, the number of rockets is so large that no matter how much cold water and sand you prepare, it is useless, then the rockets are like rain, how can you extinguish them!

This time, Yu Dayou prepared 200,000 rockets, that guy, only halfway through the shot, the city wall was already a sea of fire, no matter how the defenders above splashed water or covered the soil, they couldn't extinguish it.

What should I do if the shield catches fire?

Naturally, it is necessary to throw it away quickly, and to hold it in your hand again, then the whole person will catch fire!

The city walls have gradually begun to get out of control, and the giant shield is no longer a life-saving lock for the Tartars, but has become their life-saving talisman, this guy, the thigh-thick stake is burned, and the whole cow can be roasted.

Anyone who has roasted beef knows that they quickly threw away the stake, and those who have never roasted beef also know that this thing can't be held in their hands, otherwise it will have to be roasted!

The walls were soon in chaos, the fire was filled with panicked howls, the shield array was gone, and almost everyone was trying to hide from the fire's barbecue.

Seeing this, Yu Dayou decisively ordered: "Order, all artillery, five rounds of continuous bombardment. ”

"Boom, boom", soon, the huge roar muffled the howling on the city wall, and the Ming army's shells rained down on the city wall.

This time there was no shield wall on the city wall, and the cannonballs fell in the dense crowd, and the lethality was quite amazing, and five rounds of artillery bombardment came down, and the city wall was already heavily wounded, and there were wails everywhere.

Seeing this, Yu Dayou ordered without hesitation: "Abandon the bow and lose it, change the spear, and rush!" ”

The 20,000 Ming army suddenly burst out with a tsunami-like roar, and 4,000 chariots rushed forward at a rapid pace, and soon rushed to the city wall.

Yu Dayou stood up directly from the horseback, stepped on the chariot in front of him in a stride, and then kicked on one leg, and jumped onto the city wall with a "whoosh".

When he went up, he was like a humanoid meat grinder, and everywhere he went, flesh and blood flew everywhere he went.

When the soldiers of the Ming army saw that the commander was so brave, they jumped on the city wall one after another as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, brandishing their spears, which was a stab.

Don't look at the seemingly chaotic way they stabbed, but the strength is quite amazing, because at this time, the cold weapons were almost eliminated by the Ming army, and only the chariot soldiers would use spears in close combat, so at this time, the Ming soldiers basically abandoned other weapons and only practiced spears.

That guy, when he stabs someone, it's called a fierce one, basically a hole when he shoots him, fast, ruthless and accurate.

Tens of thousands of defenders on the east city wall saw that they were about to die, Altan Khan hurriedly ordered, and the ten thousand reserves under the city wall were quickly filled, and at the same time, he also ordered that all the foot soldiers on the south, north, and west city walls should assemble on the east city wall, and the Ming army must be driven down.

After giving these orders, he took his brother Kundu Liha and his son Tiebeitai and ran down the city gate tower under the arch guard of a group of guards, mounted a war horse, rushed out of the west gate, and ran straight in the direction of the Khanting.

He knew that Songshan Fort would definitely not be able to hold it, and these foot soldiers who defended the city would die if they died, anyway, they were not from their Tatar department, he just wanted to go back and flee to the northwest with his own men and horses, so as not to be surrounded by the Ming army to the south of Songshan Mountain, and he couldn't run away!

He thought that this time, as before, it would be okay to run away, and after a period of reproduction, he could make a comeback.

But they never thought that Yang Cong had already prepared a backhand, and the loss of Songshan Fort was just the beginning of their suffering.
