The stubborn defense of the Ming army in Sizhou greatly surprised Duoduo, since he led the troops east out of Tongguan, the Ming army encountered all the way has always been to look at the wind and surrender, where has he encountered such fierce resistance?

The Ming army on the city wall is just that, after all, relying on the high city wall has a natural advantage over the green battalion soldiers attacking along the ladder, but what about the Ming army at the gap? Obviously the city wall has been broken, but what is the purpose of still fighting to the death?

"Lord Wang, let the minions lead the troops, these green battalion soldiers are all waste rice buckets!" Seeing this situation, the Han army was in the blue banner of Maile Ezhen Li Shutai, and asked for his life angrily.

Li Shutai is the son of the old slave horse Li Yongfang, who has served Nurhachi since he was a child, and his father Li Yongfang was the first batch of traitors to surrender to the Manchus, and has long been regarded as his own by the Manchus. Now he follows Duoduo Vaiming as a member of the military department, and is eager to make military exploits so that he can be reused by the Qing court.

"Now is not the time to use the Eight Banners Warriors." Duoduo shook his head and vetoed Lee's plea.

"Pass the order, break through Sizhou, let the green battalion soldiers plunder for a day, and if there are those who retreat and coward, they will be killed!"

As Duoduo's military order reached the city, the green battalion soldiers besieging the city were startled at first, and then their morale soared.

As long as the Ming army defending the city is defeated and invaded into the city, the rich women inside are at their disposal, and this kind of incentive is better than anything else. Isn't it a rich woman who fights as a soldier?

As for whether the people in the city are their own compatriots, this is basically not in the consideration of all the green battalion soldiers, and most of these green battalion soldiers are northerners, and they will not have mercy on the local people.

The military discipline of these green battalion soldiers who had just been transformed from the Ming army was already poor, and the things of killing good people and robbing the people were repeatedly prohibited. But large-scale robbery and murder will still take care of some, and no general dares to do so at the risk of the world's condemnation. But now the prince of Manchuria actually promised like this, which surprised the green battalion soldiers. Morale boiled all at once.

"Kill into the city, don't seal the knife for a day!" The generals of the Green Battalion roared wildly, driving their men to attack, and the soldiers' eyes were as red as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

The frantic attack of the Green Battalion put the Ming army's defense line in jeopardy. The defenders on the walls were relatively good, and the army at the gap was unable to withstand it at that time.

Ma Yingkui led his men to fight for a long time, repelled several attacks by the green battalion soldiers, he and his soldiers were exhausted, more than half of his 2,000 soldiers were killed or wounded, and Ma Yingkui himself suffered several wounds. If it weren't for him, the main general, who had been in front, his soldiers would have abandoned their weapons and fled.

In the face of the green battalion soldiers who were attacking frantically with high morale, Ma Yingkui's troops couldn't withstand it at that time, and they were killed and retreated.

Seeing this situation, Jin Shenghuan knew that the situation was already very critical, and hurriedly sent his 1,000 Ping Southern Army to support. The 1,000-square-level southern army rushed to the gap under the leadership of a sentry and replaced the defeated Ma Yingkui's troops.

A battalion of the Pingnan Army in Sizhou City has been watching the battle, and it has not joined the battle as a reserve, so it has long been in a hurry, and it has been greeted one by one like a dragon and a tiger, and the green battalion soldiers are fighting together.

Because of the collapse of the city wall, the gap is full of rammed earth bricks, as well as the corpses of soldiers killed in battle, which is extremely uneven, which makes the gun array of the Pingnan army unable to be discharged, but the Pingnan army has long been trained for this kind of chaotic battle, and the soldiers form small formations one by one according to the small flags. A dozen men in a small banner, sword and shield men burst forward to protect the two wings, pikemen were responsible for the attack, and crossbowmen and musketeers were in the middle, shooting the enemy with accurate shots.

The attack of the Green Battalion is often blocked by the sword and shield soldiers with their shields, and the pikemen next to them take advantage of the situation to stab their spears, often two or three pikemen assassinate an enemy soldier, making the enemy unable to defend himself.

Compared with the Heping Southern Army, the attack of the Green Battalion soldiers was too chaotic, and there was basically no coordination at all, and it was often the generals' families who took the lead in fighting in front, and ordinary soldiers rushed behind. Of course, the general's family team is brave and good at fighting martial arts, but in the battle array, no matter how clever the martial arts are, they often can't play out. In this gap dozens of zhang wide, the Green Battalion and the Pingnan Army added up to three or four thousand people, and the formation was extremely dense, crowded with people next to each other, and there was nowhere to dodge in the face of the opponent's attack.

Xu Biao brandished a steel knife to lead the attack, and after Xu Dingguo was assassinated, most of his soldiers were led by Xu Biao. Duoduo was eager to capture Nanming, and he didn't have the time to sort out the surrendered green battalion soldiers, so he casually gave Xu Biao a position as a general soldier, so that he inherited Xu Dingguo's men and horses, anyway, they were just cannon fodder, and Duoduo didn't care.

However, Xu Biao is different, he has just surrendered and has been reused by the Manchu master, which makes him grateful, and he is brave in every battle, and he has also made some military exploits along the way.

In this attack on Sizhou, Xu Biao once again rushed to the front with his green battalion soldiers, and attacked inside along the gap opened by the red-clothed cannon.

But now, he found that he had hit a nail, the Ming army on the opposite side was too powerful, and in a short period of fighting, more than 200 people were killed and wounded by his subordinates, while the casualties of the Ming army on the opposite side were few.

What's going on? When did the combat effectiveness of the Ming army turn out to be so powerful!

Xu Biao was extremely shocked, but he had to command his subordinates to continue the attack. The old men of the Eight Banners are supervising the battle behind with bows and arrows, and there is absolutely no good end to retreating at this time.

Unconsciously, the family in front of him died in battle, Xu Biao felt empty in front of him, and when he looked up again, he saw the calm faces of the Ming soldiers not far in front and the blood stains dripping from the head of the gun.

Xu Biao felt a chill in his heart, and before he could react, several spears stabbed at the same time from several directions. Xu Biao danced the steel knife and hurriedly blocked, split a spear that pierced the door, and separated a spear that pierced the tip of the chest, and was about to split a spear that pierced the ribs with his backhand, when he felt a cold light flashing in front of him, his eyes were in sharp pain, and a strong crossbow shot straight into his eyes.

When Xu Biao covered his eyes and fell, the green battalion soldiers on the battlefield were stunned, and then there was a loud uproar.

"The chief soldier is dead!" A green battalion soldier shouted in panic, and all the soldiers panicked.

It will be the spirit of the soldiers, the generals are all killed in battle, and the soldiers, of course, do not want to fight, and one by one they shout wildly and turn around and flee. The soldiers of the Pingnan Army were greatly boosted and pursued after them with weapons. Dealing with deserters is the simplest, as long as you catch up with a light knife, you can reap a life. The 1,000-square-level southern army pursued the defeated soldiers.

In the array of Eight Banners outside the city, Duoduo looked at all this expressionlessly, and gently waved his hand and ordered: "Open the cannon!" ”

With Duoduo's order, more than twenty transferred guns opened fire at the same time, and the muzzles of the guns pointed directly at the gap in the city wall.

On the top of the city, listening to the sudden rumbling cannon, Jin Shenghuan's expression changed greatly.
