The more Turai looked at Zheng Jun, and the more he observed the other party from a close distance, the more he felt that he was not wrong.

Although the opponents are still mainly infantry, most of them are armored and drenched in cold light, not to mention the sharp firearms, which is not comparable to the Ming army against in the past. Now all of them are shrunk behind a low breastwork, in front of which is a trench, and in front of the ditch is arranged with antlers to resist horses, and behind the breastwork is a red as far as the eye can see, and it is impossible to tell how many guns there are, and you can vaguely see melee weapons such as knives and guns.

This Ming army gave him a very strange feeling, an indescribable taste.

Thurai frowned and looked at it for a long time, and finally remembered what the strange thing was—the sound.

The cattle village in front of you, no matter on land or water, inside or outside the city, it was silent.

Although he was the commander-in-chief of the battle, Turai was also afraid of heavy casualties, because all the troops under his command came from the two yellow banners, which were the root of Huang Taiji.

As for the Meng Han Army, if he can follow Huang Taiji down from the Songjin battlefield, it will naturally be in Huang Taiji's eyes, although he is not afraid, it does not mean that he has to find more trouble.

"Aobai, what do you think of the military formation on the other side?"

The latter's face was not good-looking, he arrived earlier than Turai, and he had a better understanding of the cow farm's terrain. Otherwise, how could he ask Sheng Jing for help? It's not like he doesn't know how to fight.

said: "Nikan firearms are very good, and there are warships on the Liao River, and the north and south roads of Niuzhuang are under the muzzle, so you must not use swords and soldiers." The only way to do this was the western route, and both wings were made of warship artillery. If you want the army to attack the city without the threat of artillery on the Liao River, I am afraid that only more than 100 steps in the middle of the west of the city can be passed. The width was too narrow, and the Ming army had muskets under it and artillery on it, so if they insisted on attacking with troops, the damage would be too great. ”

This Niuzhuang city is located on the east bank of the Liao River, so the east of the city is needless to say, the south and north of the city are also covered by naval artillery fire, even the west passage of the city must be subject to its jurisdiction.

If the Qing army wanted to attack the city, if it only brought shackles and shackles, it would not be able to use half of the ten cost.

However, both of them are smart people and know Huang Taiji's will better. Ao Bai couldn't break the enemy, and he also asked for reinforcements, which already made Huang Taiji disappointed and annoyed. If Turai can't succeed either, it will affect their family's status in Huang Taiji's heart too much.

"If you can, I don't want to watch the Eight Flags athletes die in vain. Back then, the old Khan once instructed us not to attack the enemy's fortified city in vain, and if we could not conquer it, it would ruin the prestige of our army. The emperor also said that if the fortified place was attacked and the sergeant was injured, although the victory was useless.

But this time and that time. Turai spoke.

"Brother Qi is right. Now that my Qing army is invincible, Nikan has been defeated again and again, and he has no power to fight back. But I don't want to kill a Zheng Zhilong in this halfway, and take advantage of the weakness to attack and disturb many places in my eastern Liaodong, this wind can't rise, otherwise where is my prestige in the Qing Dynasty?

If he didn't take advantage of the fact that his troops and horses were lonely overseas, and went deep into our territory, he was still entrenched, gathered and annihilated, and indulged this Ming army to leave, so that Zheng Zhilong tasted the sweetness, and I will be really in trouble in the Qing Dynasty in the future. ”

Aobai's words made Turai nod his head, which made sense.

Since Jiannu started the army, it has been difficult to meet a defeat, and the habits developed for more than 20 years have a very high spirit. You can't lose the momentum at this time!

But the two of them are still a little afraid that the loss is too big, if the loss is too big, it is to take Zheng Zhilong's army, what can they do? If you don't take credit, you are guilty.

After all, they also knew that Zheng Zhilong was difficult to kill. The warships of the Ming army could not sail ashore, and their horses could not run on the sea.

Zheng Zhilong saw that the situation was not good, so he got on the boat and left, they couldn't stop him.

And after the people left, they themselves failed to cut off the culprit, but there were a large number of more casualties, which was really fatal. Whether it is Turai or Aobai, all of them are in the midst of gains and losses for a while.

"Fortunately, you've prepared a lot of shield carts." Thus said to Aobai.

At this time, there was a sudden noise of drums and music at the head of Niuzhuang City, but I saw ten people wearing red-edged and yellow-bottomed cotton armor being dragged up to the city, and each of them was tied up with five flowers and tied to the flagpole. All of them were bareheaded, and only the hair, the size of a cup, was still on the bare skull, and a thin braid hung from it.

Armored soldiers with yellow flags!

Turai immediately realized who those people were, and also realized what Zheng Jun was going to do, and the anger in his heart rushed over.

For many years, he has only seen Ming prisoners of war trampled on by the Eight Banners, but he didn't want to, today he actually saw so many prisoners of the Eight Banners. The Ming army also tied them to the flagpole and humiliated them so much, which was a provocation to him to the Qing Dynasty, a great provocation.

Since the old slave raised the army, they often chased hundreds of people against the Ming army, thousands of people and tens of thousands of people, and they had never seen the Ming army dare to do this.

Strands of shame and anger just engulfed him.

Shi Lang personally handled the knife, and the sharp blade was on the neck of a Jurchen soldier who was tied up, looking at the Qing army outside the city with a cruel smile, and his heart was very unhappy.

There was a commotion in the ranks of the Qing army. Just as Thurai thinks and feels at the moment, so do they. There was a buzz in the ranks, and the fault was not that the discipline of the Qing army was good, and I don't know how many people had already started scolding.

Shi Lang gestured for a while, and swung a knife suddenly, the knife flashed, and a human head fell from the neck that spurted blood, but it was already grabbed by Shi Lang. Triumphantly carrying his braids, holding his head high and swaggering on the city wall, the Ming army array immediately resounded with a burst of "Kill the Tartars!" Kill the Tartars! Cheers.

And in the cheers of the sky, nine sword lights and nine heads fell to the ground.

There is one who has been commanded a long time ago, and he guards the heads of those who fall from above. From a distance, Turai saw a thin man, and with a lift of his feet, a head was picked out and flew a few feet away. Then I saw another person, who was not strong, but who was athletic. A kidnapping meteor, where does the head come from, where does it go.

The thin man laughed, stepped forward and kicked his feet, and his head was like the swallow returning to the nest, firmly on his feet.

When the surrounding soldiers saw this, they applauded loudly.

Ao Bai gritted his teeth and looked at it, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Seventh brother, if the emperor knows about the current scene, and the two of us never fight, can we still be good?" ”

Tulai looked at the proud Ming army on the opposite side, and said fiercely to the soldiers behind him: "Let Wuzhen Chaoha prepare." Bayala dismounts and puts on armor! ”

"Ordered the Han army to approach the front with a shield car. As soon as the enemy ran out of guns, the Mongols attacked the Manchurian army, and then rushed in. "The Han army, who used firearms, lured the Ming army into firing guns, and then took advantage of their reloading to launch an assault. This is the usual routine of Eight Banners.

As for the shield car, it was even more equipment that each of them was familiar with.

Behind the two, the Eight Banners armor soldiers who had not yet put on armor dismounted one after another, and Zha Hai, who had a pig's kidney face, put on cotton armor with the help of Bao Yi, and there was a pair of chain mail under the cotton armor, and there was a pair of iron armor outside.

Bayala is the absolute elite of the Eight Banners Army, wearing heavy armor, their defense is amazing, and they can also ride on foot, because if the tartar grows normally, then one counts as one and starts from the infantry armor.

Once these bayalas fought, they were like humanoid tanks, rampage, and invincible to all those who blocked them.

Zha Hai also took down a bow from the deputy horse, and hung a bag of arrows on his body, all of which were heavy arrows, full of bows and long bows, and the tips of the big bows, which were most suitable for using heavy arrows, so that the light arrows were clumsy, and finally carried a thick-backed machete in his hand.

As soon as the signal for battle was given, they would mount their horses and go straight to the bottom of Niuzhuang.

The Ming army laid out more than a trench and a wall there, and there were also horse repellents in front. But Zahai is all in his eyes.

Whether it was breaking through the Central Plains earlier, or the previous battle of Songjin, the Ming army was vulnerable, and he believed that the enemy at present was the same.

In particular, Turai gathered most of the army in one place, ready to clench a fist and fight out, the more than 30 white-armored soldiers, in the eyes of Zahai, only need them to be able to get close to the Ming army, and this battle will be won.
