The people of Huang Taiji, who were watching the battle in the rear, became more and more ugly after seeing so many weapons defending the city by the Ming army.

Amin on the side asked Huang Taiji, "Great Khan, do you still need to continue to attack the city" Huang Taiji looked at the corpses under the city and shook his head, the Eight Banners are not good at attacking cities, and it is almost impossible to fight in the face of a super city like Beijing.

Looking at the super city in front of him, Huang Taiji understood that there was still a huge gap between his Dajin and Daming, but the Daming in front of him had a problem with himself, so he let himself take advantage of it, so he must keep tossing Mingren, and he must not let Mingren slow down.

"That's it for today, tomorrow I will take someone to drive the nearby Ming people to come and attack the city" After giving the order, Huang Taiji turned his horse and returned to the camp with his own soldiers, while behind him, Amin and Mang Gurtai looked at the tall city wall in front of them with an unwilling face.

At this time, the Jurchen camp, a large number of captured Ming Dynasty craftsmen, under the command of Fan Wencheng, began to build various siege equipment according to the characteristics of Beijing City.

Chongzhen in the enemy platform quietly watched the Jurchens retreat back like this, originally thought that he would have this fear and discomfort when he saw such a cruel cold weapon war, but now, looking at the corpses and wailing everywhere under the city, Chongzhen found that he was extremely indifferent to all this.

The two armies confronted each other, there was nothing to do all night, early the next morning, countless Jurchen cavalry scattered, half a day later, countless people near the capital, were driven to the city by the Jurchens, and the Jurchens behind them were full of booty on their horses, and countless gold and silver jewels were worn on the group of savages.

A large number of wooden spears and simple wooden shields were thrown around the Ming people who were driven by the Jurchens. Large ladders, small trebuchets, carts, crossbows, and a small number of artillery began to be rolled out of the Jurchen camp.

Looking at the green bark on the ladder and the rushing cart, it was obvious that the Jurchen craftsmen had made it in a hurry last night. And the perverted length of the ladder and the huge metamorphosis rush cars made many Ming soldiers worried.

The Jurchens were in the position of besieging the city, occupying the time of day, and they could choose the time and weather of the siege at will. The Jurchens began to prepare to attack the city, and the Ming army in the city also began to defend the city.

After the Jurchens were ready, they once again took the lead in bombarding the city wall, hundreds of thousands of people began to pick up improvised wooden shields and wooden spears under the threat of Jurchen bows and arrows and sharp blades behind them, and were forced to participate in the siege of the city.

Looking at the people wearing Ming Dynasty costumes below, many soldiers began to hesitate, and at this time, Chongzhen said to Wang Chengen beside him: "Find someone to read a holy decree to Sun Chuanting, in this special period, anyone who dares to approach the city wall without authorization, regardless of their identity, will be killed." "Although these people are persecuted, such a large-scale massacre of their own people, for whatever reason, the general who gave the order will not have any good results after the war.

Ordered to shoot the people who were driven to besiege the city, this pot Chongzhen did not intend to let Sun Chuanting carry it, such a general who was willing to die for the empire and dedicated his whole body to the empire, how could he let him face all kinds of public opinion and hatred after the war, I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, this pot is still good for me to carry it, that is, I have this pot on my back, and in the future, there will be ministers and scholars who dare to talk about me, and it is really my knife to call out.

A small number of Jurchens and Mongols mixed into the hundreds of thousands of Ming people who besieged the city, and the war broke out again.

After being shelled by the Jurchens, the cannons on the walls of the Ming army also roared and began to counterattack. The sound of this cannon was the signal to charge, and in the enemy platform, Chongzhen watched the dense figures and began to push various equipment to attack the city. The giant crossbow on the city wall once again exerted the power of this ancient weapon, and countless spears were fired, nailing the besieging figures one by one.

As more and more siege equipment approached the city wall, Chongzhen finally found out that something was wrong, the huge rushing car was wrong, the bottom of the rushing car was actually empty, there was no battering ram, and this rushing car was too big, it was actually twenty meters long, seven or eight meters wide, and more than three meters high, except for two rows of wheels and a top, it was completely an empty shelf, and a crossbow arrow shot to the roof of the car, but it did not penetrate, and this top was a little too thick.

There are too many people to attack, although the artillery and giant crossbow are big killers, but they can't stop the deadly sea of people tactics, Chongzhen stared at the weird rushing car, close to the moat, and then "plopped", the huge rushing car rushed directly into the moat, and the rushing car formed a bridge above the river surface on the moat, at this time, another rushing car continued to move forward along the roof of the original moat, "poof" another rushing car fell into the water, and in a blink of an eye, the moat was half filled by this rushing car.

The defenders on the city walls also spotted the dangerous chariot, and the artillery defending the city began to turn their muzzles to focus on the huge chariots. Under the huge fire of the artillery, the rushing carts were shattered, and the slaves and civilians who pushed the carts were crushed by the artillery.

The Jurchen trebuchets and crossbow carts began to threaten the moat, and these weapons became a great threat to the defenders on the city walls, and as the battle progressed, the besieging troops and civilians gathered around the moat in a haphazard manner.

The trebuchet position in the city, with the order transmitted from the city wall, a large number of sappers operating the trebuchet began to operate, adjusting the direction and angle of the trebuchet, one by one the fire oil bombs began to ignite, "the first line, release" A row of burning fire oil bombs fell into the crowd gathered near the moat in a semicircular arc.

"The second column, put" was fired in a wave of fire oil bombs

"Third column, release" With the order of the lookout, batch after batch of fire oil bombs fell outside the city, and several columns formed an uninterrupted three-row round attack, forming a deterrent and intensive firepower of continuous killing. The people and Jurchens outside the city only saw that fire and oil bombs kept flying out of the city, and under the attack of such firepower, the untrained people collapsed and began to scatter and flee, no matter how the Jurchens suppressed, it was useless.
