In this way, Li Zicheng reached the northern capital city amid the cheers of all the people, and on the same day, the Ming army's attack on the military grain city also began.

"Fire!"

Nikan screamed.

The dozen or so surviving cannons beside him spewed flames at the same time, and the shells shot columns of water on the rising tide in front of him, and between these columns of water, countless small boats, rowboats, and even rowing fishing boats rode the tide......

Behind them were arrays of battleships.

A column of cruisers lined up on the Haihe River erupted flames on the side of the river, filled with gunsmoke, eighteen pounds of solid bullets, twenty pounds of flowering bombs, and even powerful rockets, creating all kinds of different whistling sounds in the sky all the time, and then hitting the city wall to destroy the city and explode a ball of flames. There is no intact building in the entire military food city, most of the arrow stacks on the city wall are unrecognizable, and the collapse of the wall here and there is a shocking look, billowing smoke and cannon fire, making this small city suddenly shrouded in a black fog of doom.

This is the suppression of real strength.

Thirty cruisers participated in the attack, and even if only one side fired, the Ming army was bombarding the small city with more than 400 cannons, and the lowest was a six-pounder cannon.

And there are thirty rocket launchers.

This was already unprecedented firepower, and the few counterattacks of the Qing troops on the city walls were like a futile struggle, although they also hit a few small boats, but in the face of the landing and strong attack of two brigades, this gain was meaningless. Nikan and the remnants of the Qing army beside him watched as the Ming advance rushed to the city under the impetus of the tide, and then landed and carried a long ladder straight to the city wall. However, bullets and shotguns began to shoot from the city walls, and the Ming army continued to fall in the charge, but the others continued to move forward, and soon the first long ladder was set up on the city wall.

An officer in three-quarter armor was the first to climb the ladder.

A Qing soldier on the city wall raised a gun and aimed,

But the short gun in the officer's hand was the first to fire, and the Qing soldier immediately fell backwards, and then the man next to him shot arrows at the officer, although it was only less than ten meters away, but the bow of these Eight Banners Divine Army was not the hard bow of the Eight Banners Manchuria, and the arrow bounced directly off the latter's helmet.

The latter went up at full speed.

At the same time, more and more ladders were being put up.

The Qing army's resistance was also fierce, after all, the Eight Banners Divine Army stationed here, although the artillery and rocket attacks that lasted for many days made the five thousand defenders in the city have been killed and wounded nearly two thousand, but the living have no way to retreat, their bullets, shotguns and arrows are also constantly causing Ming casualties. However, the latter is just as tenacious and unrelenting, they all know that behind them is the Lord Protector who is watching, and the Ming army, who regards him as a god, does not care about death at all.

Even regard death in battle as glory.

After all, the mythological system that Yang Qing had transformed before had been circulating for many years, especially in the army, almost no one believed in it, and in their opinion, dying on the battlefield meant that the soul was immortalized in the fairy world.

In the same way, dying on the battlefield brought them tangible benefits.

They are not enjoyed.

But their descendants can!

In this way, the power of two mythological systems and two beliefs used this wall as a battlefield to launch a bloody fight.

Soon the officer was the first to rush up the wall, and at the moment he showed his head, a spear from the opposite side stabbed him, and he was immediately stabbed in the shoulder, but the sturdy plate armor still caused the spear blade to slide away, and the force of the impact almost made him fall. The subordinate who raised his gun to cover under the city wall pulled the trigger, and the attacking Qing soldier fell down, and the officer threw away the short gun casually, grabbed the spear with one hand, and climbed the broken arrow stack with the other hand in the action of the Qing army falling backwards, and then this pull suddenly turned in, and before he could get up, he pulled out his saber and slashed it to the right. There, a Qing soldier who was about to throw a stone downward, had his thigh cut open, screamed and fell to his knees, and before he could come to his senses, the officer pulled out a dagger and stabbed him in the neck.

Nikan, who was not far away, drew his sword and rushed over with a loud roar.

At this time, more Ming troops landed in the city.

The Qing army did not flinch, and the fight with cold weapons on the city wall began.

The officer slashed down a Qing soldier with his sword, and just as the men who had landed in the city behind him blocked the attack from behind, he stood there with his bloody saber and looked at Nikan who rushed towards him......

The latter was in front of him in a blink of an eye.

is also a famous general of the younger generation of the Qing army, although the role in history is to achieve Li Dingguo's two famous kings, but as the son of Chu Ying, the eldest son of wild boar skin, he also fought for half his life, and the sword in his hand slashed this officer. The latter was like a brain pump, and crashed into him without the slightest dodge, although he was a little confused, Nikan's knife did not stop, and the Yanling knife with the sound of breaking the air fell instantly. The officer's head was slightly to the side, and the blade was slashing at his shoulder, the force of which caused him to fall to the side, but the two-millimetre-thick charcoal wrought iron provided maximum protection.

In particular, he also has a bearskin vest that keeps him warm in winter as a second layer of protection.

Nikan's knife stuck directly in his shoulder.

The officer straightened up like a bloodthirsty beast, and then looked at the King of the Qing Dynasty with a sinister smile.

Nikan is a little stupid!

He tried to pull out the knife with all his might, but the knife stuck in the bone was not easy to pull out, and almost as soon as he drew it, the dagger in the officer's left hand suddenly plunged into his neck.

Nikan's left hand also grabbed his left hand.

But it was useless now, and the officer, with his knife on his shoulder, yelled at him almost less than a foot away, and Nikan, who had already been pierced into his spine, lost his eyes and hung his head limply at the roar. Immediately after that, the officer dragged him to press on the broken arrow stack next to him, and Nikan's last vision was the Ming army still coming. The next moment, the dagger of the Ming army officer behind him was raised upward, and Nikan's head was strangely drooping outside the city wall in the disconnection of his spine......

"Jiannu's resistance is very tenacious!"

On the sea in the distance, Yang Qing, who was watching the battle with a telescope, sighed.

It's tenacious indeed.

In this way, the Qing army still did not rout.

However, they have nowhere to rout, at this time, the news of Li Zicheng's raid on the northern capital has reached here, where can these Eight Banners Divine Army retreat even if they retreat? Anyway, no matter whether Li Zicheng broke through the northern capital or the Ming army opened Tianjin, their result was the same annihilation.

Although theoretically they can hide and even abandon the gods......

The gods can also be renounced.

But the problem is that in order to show the fact that he has become the master, the Eight Banners Divine Army is the same as the other armies with shaved heads! Their faces are indeed the same as Hermes-Epitek's, but the rat's tail on the back of their head can't be changed! It is also impossible to pretend to be the Han army or North Korea, and the eight banners are all relatives' nests, and they do not intermarry with other banners, and the final investigation will find out. There was such a tragic example in the last battle of Shandong, and it was found that the divine army pretending to be the Han army was all singled out, and none of them succeeded in hiding their identities.

In that case, let's fight to the end!

Anyway, it's a dead end, and it's all in the morning and in the evening!

"Protector of the country, in this way, the casualties in Tianjin will not be low!"

Zheng Chenggong said.

In fact, he vaguely reminded Yang Qing that it was better to give these people a chance to live, after all, this was to force them to resist to the end, these people had no loyalty to Jiannu in essence, but they were forced to fight to the death by the purge policy of the imperial court.

If you give them a chance to live......

Even if they were given some other milder punishments, they might just endure it, after all, they really couldn't blame them for resisting to the end if they were wiped out.

"Do you know how the Spaniards dealt with them?"

Yang Qing said.

"Please teach the Lord Protector?"

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly said.

"Tied to the stake and burned, repeatedly searched and burned one by one, even if it was found wrong, as long as there was a suspicion, all of them were burned, the Spaniards began to burn hundreds of years ago, and the burning has not stopped until now. The Inquisition was notorious in Europe, and it could be said that it did nothing good, but it did the most unprecedented, which was to completely clean them out of Spanish soil, and until now it has been the only one that has succeeded in dealing with them.

The reason for the success of the Spaniards is simple.

I'd rather kill three thousand by mistake than miss one! ”

Yang Qing said.

Zheng Chenggong quickly shut up.

"I'll leave it to you here, there will be a military sea to the north to reinforce next, it is estimated that Dongchang will be opened soon, in short, don't care about casualties, it is worth dying thousands or even 10,000 soldiers to defeat Tianjin." However, it is absolutely impossible to let the fish that slip through the net be hidden, and the Jinyi Health Department will set up a special heresy court to deal with the heresy in the northern occupied areas. You and your subordinates will use Tianjin as a base after conquering Tianjin, and you don't need to participate in the battles after that, the main thing is to help the Inquisition deal with these things. ”

Yang Qing said.

The Spaniards have already set an example, so of course he will follow suit.

The Ming also had to have his own heresy trial.

The traitor trial and the heresy trial, these two iron fists must be smashed down, the northern recovery area must be thoroughly cleaned up, and then a comprehensive land reform in the north will be implemented.

And Li Zicheng has also completed Juntian there.

In addition, there is also the Huangzhuang District in the Huaibei area before, and it can almost be said that the north of the Huai River except for some areas in Shandong will complete the Huangzhuang in the future, and these add up to more than 10 million people. With the suppression of this more than 10 million people, the southern gentry were forced to accept a comprehensive communalization, and if they did not accept it, then this more than 10 million people and countless imperial villages in the south would let them know what the wheel of history is unstoppable.

This is Yang Qing's strategy.

The public land in the south is a must, and after cleaning up these separatist forces around him, the most important thing Yang Qing has to do next is to complete the land reform in the south, and he is only preparing for this now.
