260 Jinxiang Offensive and Defensive Battle

On the head of Jinxiang City, Wang Yuncheng held a saber in his hand, looking at the outside of the city with a solemn face, last night Luck Dehun's soldiers and horses came to Jinxiang City, Wang Yuncheng also fought in Liaodong in the early years, and he was no stranger to the name of Luck Dehun, but this was the first time to fight with Luck Dehun, and he was also full of heavy heart at the moment, he had shrunk the soldiers and horses, but there were only five or six hundred people, he didn't know if he could hold it.

Although Wang Yuncheng has a determined heart, but he also knows that his soldiers, if they fight with Luck Dehun, their combat effectiveness is still slightly inferior, so what he can do is to refuse to defend the city, after Jinxiang City is repaired, it is also able to defend for a while, the Qing army has no artillery, he is also a fluke, he is still confident that he can hold Jinxiang City for a while, and Zhuang Zigu has already received the news, I believe he will send troops to the rescue.

But Wang Yuncheng did not rejoice for long, the Qing army's reinforcements arrived first, it turned out that when Luck Dehun passed through Jining Prefecture, he had mobilized the defenders of Jining Prefecture to lead the army to follow, because these people were escorting supplies and ordnance, so the action was a little slower, but it also arrived before noon the next day, ten artillery, hundreds of muskets, to fight with the Ming army.

"General, the enemy is attacking the city!" Just when Wang Yuncheng was melancholy, the soldiers around him shouted a word, pulling Wang Yuncheng's thoughts back.

"Prepare for battle!" Wang Yuncheng also shouted, and all the soldiers were busy, holding weapons, gearing up, ready to move, ready to kill the enemy at any time.

In the camp of the Qing army, Luck Dehun also looked at Jinxiang City in front of him angrily, and then waved his hand and shouted: "Beat the drum and give the order, the whole army will attack the city, take Jinxiang in one battle, and kill all the Ming dogs!" ”

"Knock knock......" The sound of rumbling drums sounded, and one after another of the Qing soldiers shouted "kill the Ming dog", and approached Jinxiang City step by step with a violent, they marched in an orderly manner with a Niu Lu as a team, as long as they were close to the city wall, ready to attack at any time.

Wang Yuncheng looked at the Qing soldiers approaching step by step, and he was also holding his breath at the moment, and when they entered two hundred steps, he immediately shouted: "Kill!" ”

The soldiers who had already been ready to go lit the lead of the artillery, and blue-gray smoke came out, and with a "bang", a cannonball shot out, heading towards the sky, and soon fell into the camp of the Qing soldiers, "boom", and then exploded, killing and wounding several people, and shouting very sadly. Another artillery shell fell, and there were casualties, but after all, the number of artillery is limited, and it takes time to load ammunition, and the Qing soldiers and soldiers also relied on the spirit of not being afraid of death to rush up, only a few dozen steps away from the city, this distance, the artillery has not played much role, but the Ming army still has muskets, thunderbolts and flint shots, which can kill and injure the enemy more effectively.

"Bang bang...... "Hundreds of muskets scattered above the city, firing at the Qing soldiers who were already close to the city, the sound of bullets was endless, many Qing soldiers just wanted to raise their heads, they were concentrated on their heads, and the arrows in their hands were not full, they were shot to the ground.

The artillery and muskets of the ......Qing army were also powerful, and there were more of them, and they were bombarded indiscriminately at Jinxiang City, regardless of whether the people in the city would be affected, which no longer cared about them.

Luck Dehun is completely crazy, regardless of the casualties of the fierce siege of the city, artillery one after another, muskets like locusts attacking the Ming soldiers defending the city, the Ming army continues to fall, this battle is very tragic, the wailing of the wounded soldiers outside the city comes and goes, shocking, and above the city pass, the Ming soldiers are also heavy casualties, Wang Yuncheng is the first soldier, guarding the city pass, commanding the soldiers everywhere to fight back, tragic and abnormal.

In the face of the thunderous cannons, the Qing soldiers and soldiers all stepped forward bravely, regardless of life and death, and constantly people fell to the ground, after approaching the city wall, some were killed and injured by the firearms of the Ming army, but they did not take a step back, someone had already rushed to the city wall, that was the guard of the Great Khan Lekedehun, and the Eight Banners were the most elite.

"Pour oil ......" Under Wang Yuncheng's call, more than a dozen pots of hot oil poured from top to bottom, and poured on the Qing soldiers who were preparing to enter the city, making many people scream and scream, very miserable, but the people in front fell, and the people behind rushed up again, one after another, not afraid of death.

Under such a fierce offensive, someone finally rushed to the city wall, and the Ming army started hand-to-hand combat on the city, head-to-head duel, the Ming army fell behind at the moment, two people fought against a Qing soldier, all seem a little thin, Manchurian soldiers are born warriors, from the moment they were born, they are fighting, and the Ming army is different, although it is also after the baptism of blood, but after all, the combat experience is not richer than the Qing soldiers, and the fighting skills are also inferior.

"Soldiers, fight with them and drive them out of the city!" Wang Yuncheng hacked to death a Qing soldier who rushed up, blood splashed his face, he didn't even have time to wipe a handful, and constantly commanded the soldiers in the city to fight, and the Qing soldiers outside the city continued to follow the ladder and began to rush to the city.

The battle above the city is very tragic, one side swears to seize the city, the other side swears to defend the city, the two sides come and go, are already killing red eyes.

"Turning to the street fighting ......" Seeing the Qing soldiers pouring into the city, Wang Yuncheng knew that they had lost their advantage at this time, and decisively issued a military order.

"Boom ......" A huge explosion sounded, and the Ming soldiers went to their deaths, igniting the unused * above the city, and the remaining ammunition suddenly burned and exploded, and half of the city wall collapsed, and the Qing soldiers above and below the city were all buried in this explosion, but the muskets and artillery of the Ming army were almost all lost.

Seeing this scene, Lekdehun was also dumbfounded, this explosion caused them to lose at least two or three hundred people, and many people were blown to pieces, Lekdehun was also gritting his teeth with hatred at the moment, and his eyes were red.

"Rush into the city and kill them all, men, women, and children, and leave not one behind!" Luckedhun gave the final military order, he wanted to slaughter the city to vent his anger.

A group of Qing knights roared past, crossing the avenue in front of them, when the last few knights followed by, suddenly from the dark alley out of a team of Ming troops, they fell from their horses to the ground, and then slashed and killed, the rest of the Qing knights immediately killed back, surrounded these ambushed Ming troops, and slaughtered, but also paid a painful price.

Things like this are happening all the time in Jinxiang City, only two hours after breaking into the city, the Qing army has lost two or three hundred people, and Luck Dehun is also gloomy to the extreme, it seems that this number is not much, but if all are counted, it is seven or eight hundred people, most of them are the elite of the Eight Banners, although the Ming army is a thousand men and horses, but the Ming army is not strong, and he has suffered heavy losses.
