The green battalion soldiers in the city were originally adapted from the surrender of the Ming army in Tianjin, and their combat strength was weak and their morale was low. If there were no Eight Banners stationed in the city, they would have opened the city and surrendered when the Ming army arrived, and now where would they be willing to fight to the death.

When they saw their companions being killed by projectiles flying from the city, many of the Green Battalion soldiers were frightened, and they hid behind the battlements one after another, refusing to show their heads again after being killed.

suppressed the green battalion soldiers with muskets, and Yang Xiaolei, who was in charge of commanding the siege, ordered the soldiers to attack. Dozens of ladders have been prepared, and more than a dozen shield carts covered with wet quilts have also been pushed to the front of the formation, the attack of the Qing army in the city is really pitiful, and it will not be difficult to attack the city by relying on the shield cart to cover it.

"Persuade someone to surrender first!" Jin Xin stopped Yang Xiaolei's plan to attack the city, and through this period of attack, he saw the weakness of the will of the green battalion soldiers in the city.

More than a dozen loud-voiced Ming soldiers were selected to stand in front of the formation, and began to shout at the city under the protection of the shield cart.

"Listen to the green battalion soldiers in the city, we are the army of His Royal Highness the King of Qi of the Ming Dynasty, the 50,000 Eight Banner soldiers of the Linqing War were wiped out, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is already a grasshopper after the autumn for a few days.

If you turn your back on your ancestors and surrender to the Manchu aliens, you are actually aiding and abetting abuse, and everyone should be punished for their crimes. However, God has the virtue of a good life, and Nian'er and others are all Han people, giving you a chance to make meritorious contributions.

Kill a surrenderer of the Eight Banners, eliminate past sins, not to mention, and reward thirty taels of silver! The first one to surrender in Kaesong will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver!

Give you half an hour, if you don't surrender, the army will immediately attack, and if you don't leave a single one in the city, you will be killed! ”

More than a dozen soldiers with loud voices shouted loudly, and at first they were not proficient in shouting, but after several times, the voices became unanimous, and the sound of killing disappeared from the whole position, but the shouts of persuasion to surrender were heard.

At the head of Tianjin City, listening to the persuasion of the Ming army under the city, the green battalion soldiers at the head of the city exchanged heads and ears, and the army's heart suddenly wavered.

"Shoot at the outside of the city now!" In the city gate tower, the leader of the Eight Banners Army listened to the shouts from the city, his face changed greatly, and he immediately ordered Yao Chengqing, the chief soldier of the Green Battalion, who was standing beside him.

"Yes, yes, the last general will order." Yao Chengqing smiled and began to pass down the order, ordering the artillery in the city to open fire immediately.

Tianjinwei, as an important town in the southeast of Beijing, is a military city, and there are more than 20 artillery pieces of various types in the city, all of which are hundreds of catties of artillery. However, the Green Battalion soldiers were negligent in training, and the artillery was not well maintained, and they had not fired a single shot until now, which made the Eight Banners very dissatisfied.

The herald ran to the fort position, and after receiving the order, Ma Yongjie, who was in charge of commanding the artillery, was about to give the order to open fire, but was stopped by the soldiers around him.

"My lord, don't." The soldiers said nervously, and Ma Yongjie raised his eyes and saw that his subordinates all showed pleading expressions to him.

Thinking about the shouts of the Ming army he heard, he knew that if he really ordered the artillery to be fired, when the Ming army entered the city, none of these artillery under his command would survive.

"My lord, let's come down!" The artillerymen pleaded. At this time, everyone knew that the Manchu Qing Dynasty was gone, and who was willing to die for them again!

Most of the green battalion soldiers in Tianjin City are locals, all of them are former Ming Dynasty military households, and no one dares to fight against the Ming army for their own lives.

"Grandma's, it's down!" Ma Yongjie scolded angrily and made a decisive decision.

"Little five and six, a few of you go to connect with the other brothers in the city, and the big guys surrender together. Brothers, load up the big guns, let's kill the Tartars! Cut off the head of the Tartar and go to the Ming army to receive the reward! ”

"Kill the Tartars!" His soldiers suddenly became excited, a head of the Eight Banners was worth thirty taels of silver, which was a huge fortune.

At this time, the green battalion soldiers in the city had eliminated their fear of the Eight Banners, and regarded the Eight Banners as silver ingots that could walk.

But although it is a good idea, where is the head of the Eight Banners so easy to cut? Discover the movement of the green battalion soldiers in the city. The leader of the Eight Banners took decisive measures, and the Eight Banners soldiers in the city gathered and put their knives on the neck of Yao Chengqing, the chief soldier of the Green Battalion.

"Brothers, stop, don't move, don't move!" The small life is in the hands of others, Yao Chengqing's face turned pale, and he shouted hoarsely.

The green battalion soldiers who were already clamoring in the city hesitated when they saw this, and the general army was in the hands of others, which made them dare not move.

"Little Wu, you lead someone to fall down the city with a rope and open the city gate. Xiao Liu, you stepped forward with a big gun, and each big gun was loaded with loose guns, and fired at Lao Tzu at the Eight Banners. Ma Yongjie quietly commanded.

"However, the general soldier is still in their hands." Xiaoliu is embarrassed.

Ma Yongjie stopped talking and glared at him fiercely.

Xiao Wuyi pulled Xiao Liu's arm and whispered: "We are all going to surrender, where are there any general soldiers, the surname Yao is just a general soldier appointed by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, what does it have to do with us?" ”

Xiao Liu suddenly realized, and immediately led people in the direction of the city tower.

"Let them open fire on the Ming army!" Seeing that the green battalion soldiers in the city were all frightened, the leader of the Eight Banners ordered again. So Yao Chengqing continued to order.

Yao Chengqing has been the chief soldier for two or three years, and naturally there are a group of henchmen under him, and the general soldiers have given orders, and his henchmen have ordered the other green battalion soldiers to return to their positions and prepare to attack the Ming army.

At this moment, Xiao Liu quietly arrived at a distance of fifty paces from the city tower with five or six big guns, and ordered his subordinates to immediately fire in the direction of the city tower.

"Are there still your own people over there?" The subordinates were embarrassed, and in addition to the Eight Banners on the city wall near the city tower, there were more green battalion soldiers.

"If you want to fire, you will fire, what so much nonsense!" Xiao Liu scolded angrily, personally put the bracket in front of the big gun, and ordered his subordinates to light the fuse.

"What are you doing, go back to where you came!" The abnormal movement of more than a dozen artillery soldiers attracted the attention of Yao Chengqing's henchmen at the city tower, and shouted to this side.

However, he was answered by a loud bang and a rain of projectiles. Each of these guns is more than 10 catties, can be loaded with 30 or 40 projectiles, and has a range of more than 100 paces. Five or six large guns opened fire one after another, and countless projectiles flew towards the city gate tower. There was chaos on the city walls.

"Kill the Tartars!" Xiao Liu shouted, threw down the big gun in his hand and turned around and ran.

A few firebolts rang out, and more than a dozen green battalion soldiers and Eight Banner soldiers were shot to the ground, and the Eight Banners Leader and Yao Chengqing looked at the fleeing attackers in surprise, and then at this time the city was already in chaos.

Limited to the obscenity of the Eight Banners, there are very few Green Battalion soldiers who dare to fight face-to-face with the Eight Banners, but for the reminder of Xiao Liu's loud guns, many fire gun archers unconsciously turned their bows and arrows around and aimed at the Eight Banners soldiers in the distance.

There was a loud "bang", and a green battalion soldier pulled the trigger because of nervousness, so the sound of fire at the head of the city became a loud sound.

Seeing this situation, the leader of the Eight Banners didn't know that the general trend had gone, and immediately retreated to the city with his Eight Banners.

In the sound of "bang", the city gate was pushed open by Xiao Wu and others, and Tianjin Wei opened his arms to the Ming army.
