The Shun army under the city effectively shot at the Ming army and approached fifty paces, and the king of Xinshun saw that the morale was high, so he ordered the soldiers to change the formation, and used the archers to cover the cavalry to break through and let the infantry be responsible for pushing the ladder, and also notified the artillery battalion in the rear to open fire on the city and bomb wildly, and the Ming army was a little unable to resist after two rounds of offensive!

At this moment, Prince Ming Qin Jing in the city: Zhu Cunji, was walking in the garden of the mansion, he heard the sound of cannons, and he was a little frightened, so he hurriedly took the Qin Wangfu Honor and Guard Division out of the mansion to see if there were any rogues attacking? It's good to prepare the frame to escape at any time, just after leaving the mansion and turning a corner, he saw the nervous appearance of the prefect of Ming Xi'an, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "His Royal Highness Prince Qin, why are you out of the mansion?" If this is known to the Lord by the Inspectorate, he will be punished. But Prince Jing of the Ming Dynasty said, "King Gu just heard that there was a cannon outside the city, so he came out to take a look, presumably you also know that during the war, the officer has the responsibility to escort the vassal king and his family to evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise the officer who was killed by the vassal king is also responsible!" ”

The prefect of Ming Xi'an, who was refuted, had no choice but to honestly confess: "Don't hide it from Your Highness, the Liukou are indeed attacking the city!" But please rest assured that our soldiers can resist for a while, and the governor has already issued an order for the surrounding garrisons to come to guard Xi'an Mansion, and it is estimated that it will arrive in a few days. ”

Despite this, Prince Ming Qinjing was still a little worried, so he followed him to the palace for temporary refuge, but when he came here, he saw a person who was also wearing the regular clothes of a vassal king, but the pattern was a little different from himself, and the curious Prince Ming Qinjing asked, "Which vassal king are you?" Why did you come to the palace? When questioned, he got up and turned his head to reply, "Xiao Wang is the king of Yongshou County, could you be His Royal Highness Prince Qin?" As soon as these words came out, Prince Jing of the Ming Dynasty couldn't cry or laugh, because the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty stipulated that the vassal kings were never allowed to see each other, so he had never seen the county kings in the country under his jurisdiction since he ascended the throne, and he was surprised to see it today.

In order not to embarrass the two of them, Lu Zhiqi, the political envoy of Zuobu in Shaanxi, stepped forward and said, "Right now, the two highnesses will temporarily live in the palace, and when they have repelled the rogues, they are not in a hurry to return to the mansion!" ”

Then the Ming Shaanxi Zuobu political envoy sent people to Lishan to inform the funeral team to come back to defend the city, and issued a reward order to let the whole city soldiers and civilians go to the city to meet the enemy, kill one person and reward one or two silver to confuse the people, this trick really worked in the city up to the battalion generals down to the people who sold vegetables and farmed the fields have picked up hoes and sticks, some brought their own bows and arrows to defend the city, and rushed to the city to the Liukou heavy armored cavalry wave after wave of repulsion, the soldiers and civilians of the four gates poured oil on the ladder and ignited the fire, the raging fire accompanied by the rolling stones sliding down the ladder and hitting the soldiers of the Shun army, As a result, a fire ignited on the rogue who went up the ladder, and General Zuo Guoyi of the Shun army saw this and hurriedly ordered the rogue behind him to change to a shield to resist.

The right mighty general of the Shun army, who was watching the battle behind him: Dang Shousu, said to the soldiers on a whim, "Go to the Chinese army to find a batch of meteor hammers, which will be replaced by the siege soldiers." When the soldier heard this, he immediately ran down to pick one.

At this moment, the Ming army gunners saw that the Liukou was defending with a shield, so under the guidance of the Ming Xi'an Zuowei Zhenfu, they stabbed the Liukou leg with a spear and shot the Liukou in the face with a bow and arrow, and once again repelled the attack of the Liukou to defend the city gate.

Ming Xi'an Left Guard General: Gao Ruli, looking at Liukou's strange behavior in surprise, shouted, "Lord Governor, look, what kind of offensive is Liukou?" "The governor of Shaanxi Province quickly picked up the monocular and looked at it, only to see that the thing spinning in Liukou's hand seemed to be a meteor hammer? He wasn't sure, but this thing was very powerful, and once it was wrapped around his neck, it would easily pull people down the tower, which made the governor of Ming Shaanxi very worried, and before he could react, the rogues rushed over.

Throwing the meteor hammer to the city tower and wrapping around the neck of the Ming army to pull down, most of the Ming army was dragged down the city tower on the spot, a few kicked the city wall and held the iron chain to support, and some Ming soldiers used swords and axes to help the brothers around them cut the iron chain, only the artillery under the shield continued to fire the cannon unharmed, seeing that the Ming army was about to be suppressed by the rogue enemy, the funeral team withdrew in time at the critical moment, the Ming aid suppressed the general soldiers: Bai Guangen, Ming Pingliang general soldiers: Zuo Guangxian, Ming Jingyu guards general soldiers: Liang Fu, Ming Henan general soldiers: Chen Yongfu, and Wu Junzhen and Ma Wei and other 30,000 Ming troops were killed, and when they heard the news of an invasion of the Liukou, the generals immediately became murderous, and they rushed to avenge the Governor.

After going up to the city tower, the rogues who climbed the cloud ladder were repelled again, so that the defense of tens of thousands of Ming troops was instantly strengthened a lot, and the rows of Ming army gunners in the city continued to organize reloading and shooting, and Wu Junzhen ran to the artillerymen to command them to adjust the muzzle of the cannon and blow up the rogue generals.

The Shun army had no choice but to retreat, and the general of the left battalion of the Shun army, who was attacking the city in the front, hurriedly asked the soldiers to run to report to the king of Xinshun that the attack could not take the city tower, and the king of Xinshun was angry at that time, and he shouted: "Where are the people?" Pull 20 Weiyuan cannons, 15 iron cannons of the second general, and 5 red-clothed cannons for King Gu, and King Gu will personally supervise the artillerymen to blow up four guns in Xi'an. ”

So the soldiers of the Shun army pushed these cannons up and placed them in the plain area three hundred steps away, and the cannons exploded heavily in the direction of the city gate, (dong, dong) with the long-range lethal artillery exploded towards the city gate one by one, forcing the city gate to bear huge pressure and crack a few gaps.

The Liukou artillery fire lasted for a cup of effort, but it was still stubbornly resisted by the Ming army to attack the Liukou, the two sides were evenly matched, so that the Liukou suffered heavy casualties, and the Ming army only killed some of the generals of the Weisuo Army, the generals of the thousand households, so the new Shun King was very angry, but he had no choice but to put down the cruel words, so that the Shun soldiers shouted under the city, "Defend the city, the Ming army, listen, you are limited to open the city and surrender within three days, our king can guarantee the safety of your lives, otherwise the city will be killed and merciless." ”

When the soldiers of the Ming army heard this, their hearts were somewhat shocked, and some timid and fearful Ming soldiers began to mumble, among which the Ming Xi'an guard guarded: Wang Genzi, knowing that the Liukou would not easily stop in order to succeed and retreat, deliberately colluded with the Shun army, he took advantage of the rest of the two armies to come to the corner of the city wall and looked left and right to confirm that there was no one, so he quietly pulled his bow and shot the arrow under the city tower.

Then pretending to be casual and continued to go back to defend the city with the brothers, and soon the soldiers of the Shun army patrolling outside the city found the letter on the arrowhead, and hurriedly handed it to the king of Xinshun to see, and the king of Xinshun, who was sitting in the camp, learned that there was a Ming army in the city and was willing to surrender, so he attacked three days later according to the letter.

In the early morning of October 12th, the governor of Shaanxi Province of the Ming Dynasty, who had breakfast, continued to arrange defenses in the city, and the generals were also busy checking the supplies, not paying attention to the movement outside the city at all.

After about a cup of tea, there is still no movement in the city? The anxious King Shun was about to order the cavalry of the Shun army to charge, but at this moment, the west gate really opened? Because of the fear of fraud, let the Shun Junquan general, lead the front team of Shun saber players in the front of the city gate to explore the truth, the front team of the Shun army slowly approached the city gate into the city, and confirmed that there were no ambushes inside? Only then did he turn around and wave his flag to the king of Xinshun behind, but the king of Xinshun was not stupid, he still walked in the middle and let the generals in front, and when he just walked to the city gate, suddenly a Ming army quickly greeted them?

Suddenly the generals of the Shun army were startled, and the generals thought; Could it be that the Ming army wants to lure our army into the city to exterminate it? But if you look closely, there are only about a hundred Ming troops in front of you, and General Shun Junquan in front hurriedly ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle.

But when he saw the leading general, he stepped forward and said, "You don't have to panic! I am the Ming Dynasty Xi'an Left Guard Xianning Baihu: Liu Mangda, I am here to greet the Shun army on the order of the garrison, please enter the city quickly! Hearing this, General Shun Junquan reacted, and asked the left wing Shun army to be vigilant and enter the city one after another, leaving only a small number of Shun troops stationed at the gate of the city to prevent the Ming army from discovering flaws.

At the same time, the general soldier of Ming Pingliang stationed on the tower of the West Gate City vaguely felt that something was wrong? He observed that the enemy camp seemed to have significantly fewer flags, and that there were not as many soldiers outside the camp as there had been two days before, and he wondered if the rogue was going to do something. Just in case, he selected two soldiers with better force value, disguised as civilians and secretly swam out to the moat in the city to find out about the situation of the rogues, and when the soldiers swam out of the moat and arrived outside, they lurked on the grass and slowly approached the enemy camp, and found that there were only some second-rate soldiers in coarse cloth clothes in the rogue army at a position of two hundred paces.

What's even more strange is that there are less than a few hundred Shun troops guarding the camp next to it, and just when the soldiers are wondering, they accidentally see that there are Ming troops on the left city tower being cut down? The soldiers outside the city immediately wondered if the rogues had entered the gate from the castle tower on the left? At this moment, there was a sound of fighting in the city? And the governor of Ming Shaanxi who was in the barracks thought it was strange? He put down the 'Ji Xiao New Book' in his hand, got up and asked, "What's going on in the city?" Shall you go check it out? ”

The Ming saber players on both sides hurriedly ran out to check, only to see that there were Shun saber players and Shunjun spear teams everywhere on the streets of the city, and the battle scene was very chaotic with the Ming army in the city! A row of Ming gunners on the street raised their guns to shoot at the Shun army, and the smoke of gunpowder (bang, bang, bang) quickly hit over, and then drew their sabers and stepped forward to slash and kill.
