[60] The Great Wall of Flesh
In this round of attack, the Qing soldiers suffered more than 900 casualties, and most of them were elites like Iron Boss and Balaya, and they also broke Amba Lingwu, which made Yue Tuo feel distressed.
"Master!" Bamitai said: "It seems that there is no red-clothed cannon with the Han military flag, and this Jinan City is a difficult bone to gnaw!" ”
"Joke!" Yue Tuo snorted coldly: "The old Khan King didn't have a cannon at that time, so he didn't attack the city and conquer the city?" It's just that our army is good at field warfare, and the southern barbarians are good at defending cities. Yue Tuo suddenly smiled slyly: "I remember that we still have a lot of clothed minions in the red flag?" ”
"That's right, there is about one cow that is so many!" Bamitai nodded
"Let them dress up as refugees and blend into the city, let's meet inside and outside!" Yue Tuo clasped his palms together and signaled
"Master, your plan is to cross the river in white clothes in "Three Kingdoms", right?" Bamitai asked with a smile
Yue Tuo nodded proudly, "Your Majesty asked us to take a look at "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is really beneficial to open the book, and all of this strategy is ready-made!" Ahem~"
"Master!" Seeing Yue Tuo coughing again, Bamitai hurriedly stepped forward to help him with concern
"Lang Zhong who accompanied the army has taken the pulse~ It's just an ordinary wind chill!" Yue Tuo smiled and pushed away Bamitai's hand
Every time the Qing army fought at that time, many young children who were less than the age of the Eight Banners also had to go to battle with the head of the family. They fought hard between the battle formations, fetched water and cooked food at the camp, and grazed the horses at night. At the same time, in order to plunder more supplies, when going to war, if the officer has a coated servant at home, he can also accompany him. There is no limit to the number, the more the merrier.
"But they've all shaved their heads!" ”
"Didn't we catch a lot of new slaves along the way, let our old wrappers cut their braids, and then mixed with the new slaves, saying that we were helping the escaped slaves come back to surrender!" Yue Tuo said with a smile
"What if they really do a fake show and really escape back to the Southern Barbarians?" Bamitai crooked his mouth
Yue Tuo's face straightened, "How much did the owner of this flag compensate you for escaping, how about it?" ”
Bamitai hurriedly begged for mercy: "Where does the slave dare to ask the master to compensate!" If they flee back to the Southern Barbarians, Lao Tzu will arrest them again! ”
That night, the Qing soldiers retreated for ten miles, and then there were about 200 people at the four gates outside Jinan City, claiming that they were captured by the Tartars.
"They are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, and they are not willing to make cattle and horses for the Tartars to escape back, they should be allowed to enter the city!" Song Xuezhu strongly opened the door to accept
"The Tartars are very cunning, and I am afraid that there will be deception!" Kutsuru shook his head in disapproval
Feng Guan was noncommittal, and just set his eyes on Song Youliang
Song Youliang also shook his head and said, "I think this is a trick of the Tartars, and those Han people who have not been haircut are all newly caught by the Tartars." And those who have shaved their hair are the old coats of Tartars. If you take advantage of the chaos to escape, whether it is a newly captured or an old coat, there should be women of all ages. Why are the newly arrested old and weak women and children able to escape, while the old ones are all in the prime of life? ”
Feng Guan thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "It makes sense, what Song Shoubei means is that these so-called Han people who have shaved their hair are fake in their surrender, and they should be true as Tartars?" ”
Ge Tsuru also nodded, "It must be so!" ”
Song Youliang looked at Song Xuezhu and said seriously: "Song is against letting them into the city!" After that, he looked at Feng Guan and Ge Zhu, and the two of them also nodded
Song Xuezhu was helpless, so he could only say: "But now that it's freezing outside, the official can't bear to see them cold, so it's better to give them some food and clothing and let them go elsewhere, right?" ”
"You can give warm clothes, but you can't give food!" Song Youliang suddenly had a cold chill when he spoke, "And I have to give them those clothes!" ”
"Those? Which ones are they? Song Xuezhu asked in confusion, but in an instant he came back to his senses, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "No, how can you give them the clothes of smallpox patients?" It is already a great evil act for us to let them fend for themselves, and you still want to deliberately kill them, people's hearts are flesh and blood, how can you still do such a hurtful thing? ”
Song Youliang also stood up and said in an unceremonious tone: "Human death is heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather." If they can spread smallpox to the Tartar army, the Tartar army will inevitably collapse without a fight, the siege of Jinan can be solved, and many people will die! ”
"Jinan people don't want to die, do they want to die?" Song Xuezhu shouted
"Once Jinan is not guaranteed, who will die? Have you forgotten what the ghost said, the Jinan catastrophe, millions of dead? Which is more important? Song Youliang was angry for a while, and also said loudly
I didn't expect a guard to dare to shout loudly to himself, "You~You~~You!" Song Xuezhu pointed at Song Youliang's face with his right halberd, and his trembling fingers almost poked Song Youliang's nose, but he was so angry that he couldn't speak
Gou Haoshan couldn't help but shout loudly: "Song Shoubei, you are too presumptuous, how can you talk to Song Xunji like this?" ”
Feng Guan hurriedly came out to play a round, "The two adults are for the sake of tens of millions of people in Jinan, both of them have heard the story of Lian Po and Lin Xiangru "Will Reconcile", and now the enemy is present, the two still have to unite sincerely. Doesn't it mean that we are united? ”
"Even if Jinan is relieved of the siege, Song will report the matter as such!" Song Xuezhu clasped his hands into fists and bowed to the north
"Listen to it!" Song Youliang: Don't look over
"I don't care!" Song Xuezhu flicked his sleeves and walked away
Feng Guan asked: "Song Shoubei, although the ten Hongyi cannons are your personal property, but when you built the small city of Ximen, you also used the Franc machine in Jinan City. Shouldn't we also divide two Hongyi cannons to our two northeast gates? ”
Song Youliang smiled and said to Ge Zun and Feng Guan: "Two generals, please send someone to my camp to take the thunder in ambush and bury them between the moat and the city wall. In addition, Song will send someone with a flying thunder cannon to the Northeast Ermen to help in the battle! As for that Ko Feilin, a special Hongyi gunner is needed to fire the cannon, is there anyone in the two armies who can speak Yi? ”
Feng Guan and Ge Zhu glanced at each other, and each shook his head
"That's it!" Song Youliang said: "Don't look at the shortness of the flying thunder cannon, but a single shot can shoot a bag of thirty catties of explosives to a hundred steps away, and the power is extraordinary!" ”
"Really?" Feng Guan thought that if the power was really so great, it would be good to get a few more doors at his north gate
"Of course, you are guarding the same city, if Lord Feng and Master Ge have three longs and two shorts, then won't I have to die ugly?" Song Youliang laughed
"Bastard thing!"
In the camp of the Qing army ten miles away, Yue Tuo whipped Bamitai, who was crawling on the ground, like a beast, with a horse whip in his hand. New Aha only puts some old and weak women and children, but the old clothes are all selected and strong, which can also earn the city? If it were me, I'd be suspicious. ”
Papapa~~ Yue Tuo whipped three times in a row, hitting the bare spine of Bamitai, and the whip was bloody
"I said how much you put it, how much I will give you~~ You are still reluctant to give up those few Ahha!" The more Yue Tuo said, the more angry he became, and the heavier his hand became, and within a few strokes, Bamitai's back was blurred with flesh and blood
Bamitai is a tough guy, gritting his teeth and humming
When Yue Tuo raised the whip again, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and there was a violent cough, "cough~cough!" ”
"Master~" Bamitai ignored the pain in his back, and quickly stood up to help
"Get out!" Yue Tuo shouted
Bamitai didn't dare to slack off, gritted his teeth and hurriedly retreated
"Cough~cough~" Yue Tuo stroked his chest with his hand and said to the soldiers on the side: "Order, give those clothes to the soldiers to wear!" ”
The soldier whispered: "Master, I smell that those clothes and quilts seem to smell a strange smell!" ”
Yue Tuo scolded: "Will the Nanban take a new quilt and give it to me?" If you want to storm the city early tomorrow morning, and go into the city, you have everything! ”
"Wow!" The pro-soldiers were bored with themselves, and they hurried away in disgrace
Early the next morning, the sky was overcast, and the vicious Qing army reappeared in the field of vision of the defenders of the West Gate of Jinan. This time, the Qing army advanced rapidly at the beginning, and both foot and cavalry rushed towards the foot of the Jinan city wall at a speed of 100 meters.
Boom~ Kou Feilin at the head of the West Gate City once again let out an earth-shattering roar, but the Qing army broke through too fast, and most of the shells fell behind the Qing army. The Franc machine on the barrier outside the west gate also fired continuous cannons, and the shells continued to pounce on the screaming Qing soldiers, but the Qing soldiers were like lone wolves smelling blood, not only did they not have the slightest timidity, but they were ferocious, and rushed forward more and more desperately.
The smell of nervousness could be smelled everywhere in the air, Song Youliang looked up at the sky, the sky was overcast, and some sunlight emerged from the gaps in the clouds, but it looked extremely hideous.
A large number of Qing troops soon exceeded the range of the artillery, and Song Youliang pointed at the Yanling knife in his hand, "Fire!" ”
呯呯~呯~
Bird-guns, spear-lifters, flintlock pistols, and three-eyed guns were fired together, and bullets whistled out, knocking down a group of Qing soldiers who rushed to the front and carried the ladder, but this time the Qing soldiers seemed to be determined to win, and even the flesh and blood bombarded by the firearms flew sideways, and they still moved forward. The later Qing soldiers grabbed the ladder and put it on their shoulders and continued to rush forward
"Iron pomegranate~" Song Youliang grabbed two iron pomegranates and lit them on the torch, and then threw them out hard, blasting seven or eight Qing soldiers with two bangs. Before Song Youliang could get complacent, he suddenly felt a shock in his shoulder, and the severe pain immediately spread
Song Youliang looked down and saw that it was a feather arrow that had shot into his right shoulder, but fortunately, his Shanwen armor was strong and only slightly injured. He didn't have time to pull out the arrow, but just snapped the feathered arrow. At this time, the Qing soldiers had climbed the barrier guarded by Pan Yuzhu and the city wall of the West Gate of Jinan, and the firearms were no longer useful, and the fierce hand-to-hand combat began.
Although most of the soldiers of Haiyangwei and the militia of Jinan lacked actual combat experience, they fought hard with their enthusiasm and the fierce and battle-hardened Eight Banners Army. If one life for one life is not enough, two lives for one, two lives for three, and if three lives are not enough, four lives. They roared, and with their flesh and blood they built the second steel wall of Jinan
