Most of the Qing soldiers in Xianning were green battalion soldiers, and Xu Bin himself was also the deputy general of Zheng Erpin, but he still had to listen to the orders of that Aliha Chao Hazhangjing. Don't look at Ali Hachao Ha Zhangjing is just a positive third product, but they are Manchu Eight Banner soldiers, and they are the masters in front of the Green Battalion soldiers, even if Xu Yong himself comes, he has to be polite to this middle-level officer of the Eight Banners.

Going out of the city to attack the artillery positions of the Chu army was the order of Aliha Chao Hazhangjing.

Seeing that the city gate was about to be destroyed by the artillery of the Chu army, Xu Yong once proposed to build a second line of defense inside the city gate, block the roads in the city with sacks and knife carts, and arrange heavy troops to meet the Ming army. The city gate hole is relatively narrow, and the number of Ming troops that can attack at one time is limited, and it should be able to hold the south gate.

But that Aliha Chao Hazhangjing disagreed.

Setting up a second line of defense inside the city gate is equivalent to giving up the city tower, and the Ming army can climb the city wall and attack the Qing army on both sides of the city, so that the Qing army on the city head will be attacked on both sides, and the breakthrough will be bigger and bigger.

Moreover, once the banner of the Ming army was planted in the city tower, it was a heavy blow to the morale of the Qing army, even if the Ming army was blocked in the second line of defense, ordinary Qing soldiers would think that the city would be broken, and they would hesitate in battle. After the Ming army occupies the city tower, it can also repeatedly attack the so-called second line of defense, in case the cannon is mounted on the city tower again, the second line of defense will collapse immediately, and Xianning will really not be able to hold it......

All in all, Xu Bin had no better answer to every question raised by Ali Hachao Ha Zhangjing, and could only say that he obeyed the order and went out of the city to attack the artillery positions of the Chu army, but he knew in his heart that it would be an even more stupid choice to rush out against the artillery of the Ming army.

Sure enough, when the first batch of Qing troops rushed out of the city gate, they were immediately attacked by the Ming artillery.

The cannonballs whizzed with afterimages. Exactly what fell in front of the ranks of the Qing army, whatever stood in front of them was torn to pieces by heavy projectiles, and as screams and wails rang out, the severed limbs and weapons that were catapulted fell to the ground, and a body and wounded soldiers fell in front of the city gate.

The black cannonball hit the ground and bounced again, the speed slowed down a little, but the angle suddenly turned, and a Qing soldier couldn't dodge the general, and struggled to raise the iron gun in front of him. Like a parry weapon, you want to block the oncoming cannonballs. But the cannonball was not hindered like chopsticks piercing wet paper, and with a thud his body was broken in two, and the iron gun in his hand broke into seven or eight small iron rods, and shot out in all directions, immediately wounding several Qing soldiers.

Two shells passed through the ranks of the Qing army. Falling to the ground and turning, like a naughty child pushing a lawnmower. Shengsheng opened two crooked death passages. The severed limbs and mutilated bodies were unbearable, the blood flowed into several streams into the moat, and the Qing army behind was full of liver and gall, and subconsciously wanted to turn around and flee, but was cut down again and again by the officer who supervised the battle.

The corners of Xu Bin's mouth twitched slightly, and the first batch of people who rushed out of the city gate were all his green battalion soldiers. Although he has long been aware of being cannon fodder, Xu Bin is still a little distressed when he sees such heavy casualties.

"Rush! Rush! Nanban wants to load the cannon, hurry up and rush out and it'll be fine! The Green Battalion officer who led the team shouted. This situation had already been thought of in advance, according to Xu Bin's orders, the first few waves of charges were not the elite of the green battalion.

Another group of green battalion soldiers poured out of the city gate, and some of their companions who were lucky enough to be uninjured outside the city gate also rushed to the drawbridge again, not brave, but unwilling to remain near the city gate and be killed by the artillery.

"Bang! Boom! ”

Two more shells flew in, the Qing army was knocked down, one of the shells aimed very accurately, directly into the black city gate hole, the limbs in the door hole flew sideways, some soldiers were lucky not to be hit by the shell, but also the corpse of the companion weapon smashed, this shell from the front of the Qing army to the end, actually killed and wounded thirty or forty people, the uncontrollable howl immediately sounded, in the city gate hole formed an echo, sounding extremely loud and harsh.

"Rush forward! Rush forward! With a wave of his hand, Xu Bin sent another 200 Qing troops to launch a third wave of attack, and the military law team brandished a big knife to stop the rout, and rushed out with them.

The five hundred Aliha Chaoha soldiers have been assembled, standing behind that Aliha Chaoha Zhangjing, all looking at this qiē expressionlessly, for them, it doesn't matter how many deaths the Green Camp Han Army has, as long as the rhythm of the Chu army's artillery can be disrupted, and when these five hundred Eight Banner cavalry rush out of the city gate, the slow rate of fire of the cannon will not be too threatening.

As expected by Aliha Chao Hazhangjing, as the number of Qing troops increased, the artillery of the Ming army was forced to increase the firing density, from two salvos to four volleys, and barely blocked the third wave of the charge of the green battalion.

That Aliha Chao Ha Zhangjing is experienced, and immediately asked Xu Bin to send three hundred elites to launch a fourth wave of attacks, and attracted a salvo of four artillery guns from the Ming army, and when the shells have not completely stopped, he will be the tiger tooth knife in his hand Uàn Sakura Pan Hao 倜 16.

This is the opportunity he has been waiting for.

The Chu army has more than 20,000 people, the strength is obviously superior, and there are also cavalry troops, if these 500 Aliha Chaoha soldiers go around from other city gates, they will definitely be intercepted by the Chu army, although this Aliha Chaohazhangjing has a strong self-confidence, but he does not think that only 500 Eight Banners can defeat the 20,000 Ming army and rush to the artillery position of the Ming army.

You have to attack from the south gate.

The artillery position of the Ming army was only a few hundred steps away from the south gate, and the cavalry could rush through this distance with only a few breaths, so that the green battalion soldiers could be used as cannon fodder to attract the firepower of the Ming army, and then use the cavalry to charge the formation during the interval of the shelling.

More than 300 green battalion soldiers were killed and wounded in the artillery shelling of the Ming army, and that was not a problem.

The interval between artillery attacks is very long, and Aliha Chao Hazhangjing calculated very clearly, when the Eight Banners cavalry rushed out of the city gate, they would be hit by two or three more cannons at most, and the speed of the cavalry was very fast, and there would not be too many casualties if they resisted these two or three cannons, as long as they rushed across the drawbridge and spread out the formation, the artillery basically lost its threat.

In front of the artillery position of the Ming army, there were thousands of infantry guards, but Aliha Chao Hazhangjing was very confident, for the brave and invincible Eight Banners cavalry, it was a very simple matter to rush through the defense line of these thousands of people.

You don't have to destroy them all, you don't even have to defeat them, just rush over and destroy the cannons, and you're done.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

The artillery position of the Ming army let out three roars, three balls of flames and white smoke came out, and three shells flew rapidly.

In some cases, it is safest to rush forward, and the more people there are, the more dangerous it is!

That Aliha Chao Hazhangjing has experienced a hundred battles, so he naturally understands this truth, and he took the lead in rushing in front of the whole army, on the one hand, to boost morale, and on the other hand, to advance and retreat freely and ensure his own safety.

Sure enough, the three shells were aimed at the city gate hole, and Aliha Chao Hazhangjing rushed to the suspension bridge in time to easily avoid this round of shelling, and there were some green battalion soldiers with quick eyes and legs beside him, who also rushed across the suspension bridge in time.

"Rush! Don't stop! ”

Aliha Chao Hazhangjing ordered again and again, urging these green battalion soldiers to continue to rush forward, but he himself pulled the war horse to hover in front of the drawbridge, as the commander of the whole army, of course, he couldn't charge in front all the time, and he had to wait for the Eight Banners cavalry behind to catch up.

Behind him, there was a scream of the Eight Banners, mixed with the screams of the war horses, these three shells were aimed at the city gate hole, and two of them shot directly into it, because the city gate hole was too narrow, although the Eight Banners cavalry was very fast, they were also hit by the shells.

But what is beneficial to the Qing army is that the war horses weighing seven or eight hundred catties are more resistant to beating, and after a cannonball kills two or three war horses, they basically lose their kinetic energy, these Qing troops first got the guidance of Aliha Chao Hazhangjing, and they all shrank tightly, holding on the war horse and relying on the meat shield to resist the cannonballs, although these three cannonballs are very powerful, they only killed less than ten Eight Banner cavalry, and more than ten Eight Banner cavalry were injured and crushed by the corpses of their companions and war horses.

Rush!

When the shells stopped, the Eight Banners cavalry rushed out of the city gate and across the drawbridge with the corpses of their companions, and Xu Yong's green battalion soldiers followed and rushed out of the city.

"Bang! Boom! ”

The Ming army fired two more shells, and the Qing army was killed and wounded, but it was no longer possible to stop more Qing troops from leaving the city.

In the battle sequence of the Qing army, the Aliha Chaoha soldiers were a grade lower than the Bayala soldiers, but they also belonged to the strongest elite soldiers of this era, after rushing out of the drawbridge, more than 400 Aliha Chaoha soldiers did not hesitate, they turned their horses and rushed to the artillery position of the Ming army.

"It's a crack soldier indeed." Wang Kefan nodded in his heart, based on this alone, neither Ti Zhaorong nor Wang Meng's cavalry battalion could do it, if they were to be transferred to the same position, there must be a whole process, although the time was very short, they would also be subjected to another round of shelling.

However, the Qing army thought that it would be able to rush to the artillery position of the Chu army in this way, but it was too simple.

Wang Kefan waved the flag, and the Tongcheng camp and the Tongshan camp stepped forward together.

The commander of the Tongcheng battalion is Xiao Zhuge Teng Shuanglin, and the commander of the Tongshan battalion is Zhou Guodong, these two infantry battalions are the main force of the Chu army, experienced in a hundred battles, brave and tenacious, enough to fight with the Eight Banners Force.

As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was any, as soon as the two infantry battalions moved, the spear array faintly revealed a sense of slaughter, and Aliha Chao Hazhangjing immediately saw that it was powerful, the cavalry rushed to the infantry phalanx to lose money, and these two infantry battalions had thousands of men and horses, and although the Eight Banners cavalry under his command were fierce, they could not fight with them.

Steering interspersed!

Na Aliha Chao Hazhangjing suddenly reined in his horse's head, led his more than 400 Eight Banner cavalry around a semicircle, and rushed towards the right flank of the Tongcheng Camp and the Tongshan Battalion, preparing to attack the Ming army's artillery position in a roundabout way.

Agility is the advantage of cavalry, and there is no need to fight with infantry. (To be continued......)
