The shotguns fired by several cannons swept over, and immediately killed another one, and unlike the musket salvo just now, the bombardment of the cannons not only killed many cavalry, but also killed many horses. The remaining horses that were lucky enough to not die were also hit more or less once or twice, and these horses suddenly couldn't care about their masters, so they immediately stood up and ran away. Some of the cavalrymen who had dodged these rounds of blows had not yet understood, but they found that their horses had thrown off their horses and ran away, and they couldn't help but panic suddenly, turned around and ran.

Hani's luck this time was not as good as the previous times, several shotguns hit him, one of them hit his right leg, and immediately broke the leg bone of his right leg, and another shotgun hit his right shoulder, and the whole right arm was instantly unconscious. Hani tilted his body and fell to the ground. He barely looked up, and saw the other soldiers running backwards in a hurry, some on horseback, some simply on foot.

Hani knew she couldn't go. After this guy, I'm afraid that no one will dare to come up to save him, if it falls into the hands of those pirates, he doesn't need to ask, he knows what the result will be. So Hani twisted his left hand with great difficulty to pull out the knife hanging from his waist, but when he went down, he just pressed the scabbard, and the knife was a little longer, and it was very difficult to pull it out, and it took a while to pull out the knife. Hani raised his knife and tried to wipe his neck, but when he wiped it, he realized that his armor was still neatly dressed, but his neck was covered by the sagging armor under the helmet. Hani lost a lot of blood and only felt that his head was getting dizzy. His right hand was completely unable to move, so he could only put the knife down first, and he tried to reach for his helmet and remove it.

With great effort, Hani took off his helmet and reached for the knife. As soon as he touched the hilt of the knife, a foot stepped on his hand, and he heard a voice shouting something. Then his eyes went dark, and he fainted.

"There's a living monk here! You've got something to do again! There's still a live one here! Private Cui Anzhi shouted.

"What? I'll take a look! The monk ran over, looked down at Hani who was lying at Cui Anzhi's feet, and said, "Yes, looking at this armor, it looks like an official." He glanced at the hand Cui Anzhi was stepping on again.

"Ah, that's a good knife! Well, it's our country's knife. The monk bent down and pulled the knife out of Hani's hand. He looked at it carefully and said, "Looking at it like this, maybe it was exiled in your Korea during the Battle of Wenroku Keicho back then." Well, then these Tartars hit you again, maybe they were snatched from you. Well, that's not bad, this guy is also well maintained, you see his knife, it's sharpened very well, this knife probably has a three-carcass cut. Do you know? In our Japan, the samurai got a good sword, and sometimes they would go to a random civilian to try the sword, just go over with a knife and see if they could cut him into two pieces......"

As he spoke, the monk held the knife in both hands, and made a knife test gesture towards Cui Anzhi with a cruel smile. Frightened, Cui Anzhi jumped back and said, "Monk, what are you going to do!" ”

The monk smiled and said, "Fun with you!" Then he put away his knife. And he said, "Come here, help me drag this tartar back." ”

Cui An answered, but he didn't come up, just stared at the knife in the monk's hand. The monk frowned, turned the knife upside down, and handed it to Cui An to know: "Take it!" Then he bent down, lifted Hani up, and said, "This man will not live long, so hurry up and put him on." ”

At this time, Shang Kexi had already rushed over, but he saw a group of pirates piercing the bodies of prisoners and soldiers who had died in battle with sharp stakes, and erected a large area in front of the front in dense turns, like a small forest.

Shang Kexi looked at the Qing troops around him, and from their distorted faces, Shang Kexi could clearly see anger and fear.

Shang Kexi looked at the opposite position again, sighed and said, "We didn't bring anything to siege the city, let's go back first." ”

……

The news of the defeat soon reached Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji was angry, so he ordered Duoduo to personally lead the team to the monk Kexi to meet peace. And said to Duoduo: "Fifteenth brother, when you go there, the first is to build the fortress safely, and the second is to curb the attack of the Zheng family's army. And finally, you go and take a good look at the people's defenses to see if there is any way to deal with it. If you have any ideas, you can also try them, but don't hit them too big. ”

Duoduo knew what Huang Taiji meant, that is, it was not the time for a large-scale attack when the army was outside, but the opponent's defensive means and skills needed to be understood through various tentative attacks. Of course, such a tentative attack inevitably kills people. At this time, Huang Taiji threw himself over, but he may not really have any good intentions.

Of course, Huang Taiji still transferred some people from other flags to assist him, such as Bo Hetuo of the Zhenglan Banner who came with a few Niu Lu to follow him.

If it was according to Duoduo's previous temper, after seeing Shang Kexi, most of them would have taught him a hard lesson. However, after suffering Zheng Jiajun's losses, I heard that Shang Kexi was tied to them, and suffered a lot of losses, but he was faintly happy in his heart. However, he quickly restrained such undesirable emotions, and said to Shang Kexi, who came to greet him: "King Zhishun doesn't need to be polite, now that the military situation is urgent, King Zhishun should tell this king about the military situation." ”

Shang Kexi hurriedly let Duoduo into the lobby, and after the two sat down, Shang Kexi told Duoduo about the surveillance of the model army crossing the river bank with a small boat every night and attacking the villages in the rear, and said: "A few days ago, I received a holy decree, and the emperor instructed the minions to merge the small Zhuangzi into a large village to strengthen the defense. I did what I was told, and now there are a lot fewer attacks, and there is no Zhuangzi being opened by the Haikou Kou, and both men and women are killing. But just last night, there was another special attack. It was also at night that those pirates, with a large rocket, shot in from outside the walls of Da Zhuangzi and set fire. Although we have been prepared for a long time, and the water and buckets have been prepared, the fire is extraordinarily evil, and ordinary fires will naturally be extinguished as soon as they are poured with water. This kind of fire, when poured with water, the flames will rise all at once, and even the fire can continue to burn on the surface of the water, flowing along the water. In addition, the black smoke from this fire is particularly powerful, and ordinary people will feel chest tightness and panting after taking two or three puffs. Therefore, after this fire was burned, it seems that there were more people burned to death than when Xiao Zhuangzi was attacked before. ”

Duoduo frowned when he heard this, and he thought for a moment and said, "This king thinks that it is not okay to blindly wait for them to come and fight us. In fact, the sharpest thing about the pirates is just firearms. At night, they can't see far, and at night, their guns are gone. In fact, we can also organize some cavalry teams to ambush the pirates and reinforce the attacked villages. As long as we can catch them a few times, we can overwhelm them. King Zhishun understands this point. However, before this king came, King Zhishun had limited soldiers and horses in his hands, and he couldn't afford to play such a tactic. This king brought some soldiers and horses, all of whom were battle-hardened Zhushen warriors. When you send it out in the evening, you will definitely be able to give them a good look. Well, King Zhishun, I wonder how this fortress has been built? ”

Shang Kexi hurriedly replied: "Prince Yu, the walled city is still going well, and it will be almost the same in another month or two, but even if it is repaired, the artillery is not easy to use at night, and it is still easy for them to take advantage of the night." So I thought of another way, which is to pull up a few more iron chains on this Da Liao River. Make it impossible for ships to pass. Without the help of ships, it would not be easy for them to harass us. ”

When Duoduo heard this, he also nodded and said, "This is also a good way!" You can try. Well, let's talk about the defense on the other side with this king, right? ”

Shang Kexi then talked about the defense situation on the opposite side that he had discovered.

"How's that wire rejection?" Duoduo asked again.

"Prince Yu, I really don't know much about this." Shang Kexi said, "The emperor won't let me attack." But what the hell is going on with this thing always has to be beaten to find out. ”

Duoduo nodded.

……

"Hurry up!" With an angry shout, a leather whip fell on Li Tai's back, and Li Tai trembled all over his body and almost fell to the ground. But he knew that he couldn't fall down no matter what. Once he falls, he is likely to be greeted with a stab in the head. Those white armor who oversaw the war, killing a clothed minion like him was easier than killing an ant. He saw with his own eyes that a man who was pushing a shield cart like him fell on the road, and when the white-armored soldier next to him saw it, he stepped forward directly and stabbed the man to death with a single sword. So he pushed the huge, heavy shield cart with all his might.

The shield cart was still far away from the enemy's fortifications, and began to encounter shelling from the castle one after another, and the cannonballs whistled and smashed the shield cart to pieces. But more shield carts are still on the way. They don't just have to face the cannons on the other side, sometimes there will be a sudden explosion underground, blowing the wheels of the shield carts to pieces, and soon, most of the shield carts are waste.

Li Tai was lucky, his shield car was never hit by the cannon. Soon they began to approach the first trench. The shield cart had to stop in front of the trench, and a group of coats came out from behind the shield cart and threw bags full of sand into the trench, and soon the trench was not too deep to make a way for the shield cart to advance. Of course, in the process, quite a few shield carts were hit by artillery, but after all, this trench could no longer stop them. And those mysterious wire rejections are not far ahead.
