The sun was setting, and under the dim sky, the adjutant general led 5,000 elite left troops to rush out of the fortifications with a loud shout, and rushed towards the front of the marching Tang army's battle array.

Seeing the left army rushing out of the fortifications and rushing towards itself, the Tang army's military formation immediately stopped, and then immediately set up a formation and prepared to meet the enemy.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Bang 。。。。。。"

With the leading captain of the Tang Army, the three rows of Tang Gunners quickly formed a three-stage strike formation in the front and rear rows.

Among the 4,500 shots, the 1,500 in the front row was the first to start.

Then, the first row stepped back to the back of the third, followed by the second row's 1,500 Lumi.

Then the second row retreated to the first row, and the third row of gunners came up and fired another 1,500 Lumi guns.

At this point, a complete three-stage blow is completed.

After the third row of gunners was completed, the original first row of gunners had already loaded gunpowder and bullets, and continued to go to the front, ready to start a new round of firing again, and the three-stage attack process began again.

The sound of gunshots like bursting beans rang out densely, and the muzzle flames formed a row of dark red flying fire curtains, and thick white smoke immediately surged up on the shields lined up in a straight line.

Countless whistling small lead bullets weighing three coins let out a slight scream, and shot away at the left army that was rushing towards the opposite side.

These hot, piping thin buckshots roared away, and immediately pierced into the bodies of those leftists like hot knives piercing butter.

Under the almost endless, seemingly endless blows of the Tang army, the 5,000 left troops who rushed forward together were instantly shot and killed more than 800 people in the first three-stage salvo.

The lieutenant who led the charge was quite different because of the bright armor he was wearing, so he himself could be called a bullet magnet.

The first three-stage salvo of the Tang army, a full fifteen lead bullets, hit him at the same time, leaving the lieutenant general from head to toe, covered with dense small blood holes.

The deputy general of the Left Army, who was originally brandishing a war knife and shouting to rush forward, stopped rushing forward as if he had been suddenly hit with a heavy hammer. After being stunned for less than a second, he fell to the ground on his back and did not move again.

As soon as the leading lieutenant general was killed, he encountered a head-on attack on the left army, which suffered heavy casualties, and the formation was suddenly in chaos.

The remaining 4,000 or so left troops, as soon as they were a little sluggish, everyone turned around and fled as if they were crazy about gain and loss. A very large number of people lost their weapons and just wanted to run faster.

It's just that the interval between the next three strikes is extremely short, and the dense and non-stop Lumi guns completely dispelled their desire to escape, and countless lead bullets caught up with them, and shot them five or six hundred people from behind.

After seeing the remaining more than 3,000 left troops fleeing back to their main formation in an extremely embarrassed posture, the Tang army gunners packed up their weapons, and after a shout, continued to maintain a stable formation with the soldiers and horses of the main formation behind them, and continued to advance towards the city.

Seeing this tragic scene, the main general Hao Xiaozhong and all the left troops who were hiding behind the fortifications that were urgently repaired were suddenly beaten.

Depend on! The firearms of the Tang army were so powerful, this was not a war at all, but an outright massacre.

Moreover, what the hell is going on, the Tang Army's firecrackers are not like the firecrackers seen in the past, but they have been continuously released endlessly, this, this is simply a nightmare!

After all, in the impression of all the left army, as long as the Ming army's guns in the past withstood the first round of salvos, then, in the next few minutes, the Ming army was in the most defenseless state because it had to reload the ammunition, and it was just seizing such an opportunity to carry out a surprise attack.

It's just that what is now beyond the imagination of the main general Hao Xiaozhong is that the Tang army on the opposite side, the dense thousands of Lu Mi guns, as if they will never stop, actually defeated the five thousand left army headquarters that wanted to be strangled in close combat on the spot in one go, killing a lot of people, which is simply beyond everyone's imagination.

Such a dense and concentrated shooting, as if it would never stop, was completely different from any Ming army that had been faced before. This kind of almost endless firepower, this kind of slaughtering battle that wiped out all the attacking troops, was a very great blow to the left army's heart.

With such an almost mortal ending, the left army no longer had the courage to assault, and all the remaining troops were cowered in the city.

At this time, the most anxious and panicked person was Hao Xiaozhong, the main general of the city.

What to do?

The Tang Army's offensive was so fierce, could the remaining soldiers under his command who were demoralized and demoralized and had no fighting spirit, as well as those even more unbearable temporary summons, really be able to withstand it?

Hao Xiaozhong's face was full of fear and confusion.

At this time, the Tang army had already marched quickly again, and came to the accurate shooting range one hundred and sixty paces away.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Bang bang bang! ……”

It was again a dense and incessant, as if it would never stop beating, like bursting beans, and it sounded densely, shooting any left army that dared to show its head on the fortifications at once.

Such a one-sided and complete slaughter was an extremely happy thing for the Tang army, but for the left army, it was simply an endless hell.

With the rapid increase in the number of dead and wounded, the left army defending behind the fortifications began to quickly disorganize. There were even a lot of young men who had been summoned temporarily, wailing and throwing down their weapons, turning around and fleeing backwards.

Only then did they get up and flee, and their bodies, which were exposed outside the fortifications, would immediately be hit by several whistling lead bullets, killing them on the spot.

The entire defensive position of the Left Army suddenly became an extremely terrible slaughterhouse for humans.

"Don't run, don't run, fuck you don't run!"

Hao Xiaozhong's eyes were blood-red, and he shouted at the young men who had fled.

It's just that he shouted to cut his throat, but it didn't have much effect, and those young men who had been frightened out of their souls, and even more defenders, began to leave their posts one after another, taking advantage of the deeper and deeper twilight, to flee into the depths of the city.

Hao Xiaozhong was furious, his face was hideous, he roared sharply, drew his waist knife, and then took the lead in slashing at the rout soldiers who turned and fled.

Seeing that the Lord was so mercilessly slashed, the guards also mercilessly slashed at the deserters.

It's just that under the sound of Lu Mi, which is dense like firecrackers and almost doesn't know when it will stop, his method of killing and intimidation is obviously ineffective, and under the crazy killing of his own main general and the continuous shooting of the Tang army on the opposite side, the left army, which was already in a panic, has reached a state of collapse, and the number of people fleeing is increasing.

Exercise! If you run away any longer, Lao Tzu will become the commander of the light pole, and this city is still guarding a fart!

Hao Xiaozhong's heart was full of despair.

Is it true that I am going to die here?

No, no......

It should be enough to be loyal to Zuo Liangyu so far. I don't need to really give my life here, after all, there is still money and wealth that I have accumulated for many years, waiting for me, and dying here in battle is not worth it......

There are still too many beautiful things in this world, and I haven't had time to enjoy enough of them.

Alas, damn it, Lao Tzu has descended!

Where there is life, there is hope!

Finally, Hao Xiaozhong raised his head, looked around at everyone with a dying look, and shouted in a low voice: "Pass my order, the whole army will stop resisting, raise the white flag, and surrender to the Tang army!" ”

"Yes, yes."

Soon, at the entrances of the various garrisons in the city, the white flags were raised high and waved vigorously, which was very conspicuous in the dwilight twilight.

Seeing the white flag raised high in the left army's formation, Huang Degong's face had a smug smile, but there was an inexplicable sigh in his heart.

Unexpectedly, I originally thought that attacking this Jiujiang City would have a bloody battle with the defenders in the battle to capture the city after the city was broken, but I didn't expect that these left troops would collapse so quickly with these three salvos, and they didn't even have the determination to die for Zuo Liangyu's guy, which was really disappointing.

In the past, the Left Army, which was flying high and powerful in Huguang and other places, completely lost its combat courage after seeing the Tang Army's brutal and fierce slaughter-style battles, which is really speechless.

However, the rapid decline of Jiujiang City can also show how amazing the current power of the Tang army's firearms is, perhaps, with such an indestructible firearm, it is also completely possible for the Tang army to dominate the world in the future.

Huang Degong groaned slightly, then waved his hand and ordered the whole army to stop attacking.

The sound of bursting beans was like a non-stop shooting, and it stopped instantly, and under the dusk sky, the entire battlefield was suddenly quiet.

Only large clouds of white whistle smoke filled silently everywhere, and finally disappeared into the sky of large dusky clouds, and disappeared into the blood-red sunset.

Soon, the three gates of Jiujiang City, east, west and north were all wide open, and the Tang army surrounded outside entered the city in large numbers like a raging flood, and continuous cheers surged up and resounded in the sky.

The entire left army and the young men in the city, under the leadership of the main general Hao Xiaozhong, threw away their weapons, formed a column, and walked out of the position in despair, and were immediately detained by the Tang army.

At this point, this siege of Jiujiang has finally come to an end.

According to statistics, including the cavalry of the Left Army who were killed earlier, a total of more than 2,800 Left Army and young men in the city were killed by the Tang Army, and countless were wounded. Among the Tang army, only a few soldiers were slightly injured.

Such a battle was a completely one-sided slaughter.

From early morning to now, it took less than a day for the Tang army to successfully defeat Jiujiang City, an important southeast town that Zuo Liangyu painstakingly managed, and its efficiency can be described as amazing.

Huang Degong is very proud, now that Jiujiang City is broken and the southeast is in deficit, the Tang army under his command should be able to drive straight into Wuchang from here and attack Wuchang, and Zuo Liangyu's general trend will go.

When Huang Degong was sighing, Hao Xiaozhong, who raised the flag and surrendered, was quickly pushed and shoved by the Tang soldiers and brought to Huang Degong, who was sitting upright on a horse.

Huang Degong and the guards all looked down on him with smug and contemptuous eyes.

"This general is Huang Degong, the mayor of the ninth town of the Tang Army, who are you, can you understand Chinese?"

Hearing Huang Degong's question, Hao Xiaozhong secretly hated it, but he couldn't attack. He thought for a moment, then threw himself on his knees and kowtowed.

"Under is the chief soldier Hao Xiaozhong under the Marquis of Ningnan, and he was ordered to garrison Jiujiang City, but it is a pity that he has no eyes and no pearls, and he does not know the heavenly soldiers, and he dares to confront the Tianwei of the Tang Army, so that the city is broken and defeated, which is really a crime that deserves death."

Hao Xiaozhong replied with stammering words while kowtowing on the ground like pounding garlic.

Seeing that this Hao was loyal to the main general, and now he was kneeling in front of him so servilely and begging for mercy, Huang Degong was very contemptuous. With a sarcastic look, he looked him up and down.

It's funny, Huang Degong hasn't spoken yet, and Hao Xiaozhong, who is kneeling on the ground, thinks that Huang Degong refuses to accept his surrender, and he can't help but be afraid.

He raised his head, with a face full of dust, but a flattering smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to Huang Degong urgently: "Lord Huang, but for the sake of the great subordinates leading the people to surrender, spare the next cheap life!" Although it is not a pity to die, after all, he still understands the current affairs and has not fought against the heavenly soldiers to the end. Lord Huang, as long as you can spare your life, from now on, you will be willing to be a cow and a horse. “

Hao Xiaozhong's embarrassed and humble words caused a group of Tang soldiers on the sidelines to eat and snicker.

It's just that Hao is loyal to the desire to survive, and he doesn't care at all, he is like a stray dog begging for his master, kneeling on the ground, but his eyes are staring at the ground, looking at Huang Degong who is sitting upright on the horse.

Huang Degong despised this person to the extreme, but he smiled slightly, and replied loudly: "Hao Xiaozhong, don't be so afraid. Ben has always had clear rewards and punishments, and he was fair and unbiased. Although you don't know the current affairs, and you should be severely punished against the heavenly soldiers, but thinking that you are lost and know that you have the merit of leading the people to surrender, it can be regarded as a small achievement. I will spare you the death penalty. “

"General Huang really has a big belly and a big heart, his heart is like the sea, and he admires it below, how can he express it! Thank you, General Huang! “

Listening to Huang Degong's words that decided his own life and death, Hao Xiaozhong's face was happy, full of lightness, and he kowtowed anxiously like pounding garlic.

At this time, he seemed to think of something again, and asked Huang Degong softly with a sneer: "Lord Huang, since you have allowed our troops to surrender, then what are you going to do with these soldiers and horses and young men who defend the city next?" “

When Huang Degong saw him, his face showed displeasure, and he immediately shouted: "This matter will have its own decision, so why do you need to ask more!" “

Hao Xiaozhong saw that Huang Degong was angry, and his face suddenly showed a look of fear, he snapped a few times, slapped his mouth a few times, and said loudly: "Damn it, have more mouths and more tongues, and hope that General Huang doesn't remember villains, and doesn't care about the general below." “

Huang Degong saw that he was so timid and frightened, and he couldn't help but be even more contemptuous of this person.

Zuo Liangyu used such cowardly people to defend the city, this Jiujiang City is not down, there is really no heavenly reason.

"The soldiers and the people in the city, Ben will have his own arrangements, you don't need to worry, you can get up and speak, if there is anything, Ben will ask you." Huang Degong replied with a sneer.

Hao Xiaozhong got up tremblingly, nodded and stood beside Huang Degong's horse, the expression on his face, flattery and grievance intertwined, he couldn't tell how ridiculous it was.
