Chapter 217: Shelling of Nurhachi

The addition of Liu Qu and Qi Bingzhong temporarily stabilized the front of the crisis, but it was still precarious under the impact of the Jurchens.

Liu Qu was covered in blood and fought with the Jurchen armor soldiers. He swung his knife to block a steel knife and raised his hand to slash down a Jurchen armored soldier. Under him and Qi Bingzhong, the Ming army stabilized the defense line little by little.

When he was fighting with a soldier, Qi Bingzhong shouted in his ears: "Brother Liu! Be careful! ”

Liu Qu hurriedly forced the Jurchen armor soldiers to look ahead, only to see a shield cart directly crashing into him.

"Be careful!" His own soldiers rushed forward and withstood the shield cart to the death. Qi Bingzhong also rushed over, he pulled Liu Qu up and turned around and ran.

"Boom!" A loud bang exploded behind them, and the two of them were swept away by the air wave.

Liu Qu felt that the whole world was buzzing, and he couldn't stand up at all when he was dizzy. Reluctantly sat up straight and saw Qi Bingzhong not far away.

I saw that Qi Bingzhong's vest was sticking an arm-thick piece of wood, and the blood had stained the ground red.

"Brother Qi!" Although he shouted with all his might, he could not hear any sound himself. Liu Qugang wanted to stand up and run over, but his body shook and fell to the ground.

The intense vertigo made him unable to stand up at all, and he could only crawl forward with his hands and feet.

finally approached Qi Bingzhong, and when he pulled up his partner who was fighting side by side, he found that Qi Bingzhong had already died.

When the Jurchens saw that the main generals of the Ming army were all blown down by them, they excitedly "Whoa!" "Scream. They kept attacking forward, and the Ming army kept retreating.

The death of the main general made the Ming army lose their fighting spirit, and they mechanically waved the swords and guns in their hands, and were forced to retreat by the Jurchens.

Liu Qu was also coerced by the Ming army and slowly retreated back to the small dirt slope, he felt that he was finished! The Ming army is finished! Quang Ninh is finished!

In despair, he put down Qi Bingzhong's corpse and pulled out his sword from his waist. This sword was a gift from his father when he was sixteen years old, and from that moment on, loyalty to the country became his motto.

Looking at this cold-shining sword at this moment, he felt that he was worthy of his family and Da Ming.

The Jurchens drove the Ming army to the narrow dirt slope and stopped the attack, they surrounded the Ming army and did not attack, and aimed their bows and arrows at the Ming army above.

A man with the banner of the Han army stood at the foot of the dirt slope and shouted: "The king of the Khan has the virtue of a good life, as long as you surrender, the king of the Khan will definitely let you go and wait for a way to live." If you don't come to your senses, today next year will be the death day you are waiting for! ”

The Ming army on the dirt slope was silent, and everyone turned their eyes on Liu Qu. Liu Qu sorted out the armor on his body, took his treasure bow from his own soldiers, put it on the wolf tooth arrow, and aimed it at the Han army flag in Chinese.

"Brethren! Would you like to shave your hair? Are you willing to not be able to enter the ancestral grave after you die? Do you want your children and grandchildren to be slaves of Jiannu? After he asked a series of questions, the Ming army began to stir.

"I don't want to!"

"Go to the special Jiannu, Lao Tzu would rather die than keep ugly braids!"

……

These voices changed from whispering at first to neatly shouting: "Unwilling! ”

Liu Qu smiled, he smiled and shot the wolf tooth arrow in his hand. The Han army banner who persuaded him to surrender knew that it was not good when he heard the neat shout, and before he could turn around, he was shot in the eye by an arrow.

The wolf's tooth arrow was so sharp that a tip peeked out from the back of his head. Seeing that the Ming army dared to shoot the Han army banner that persuaded him to surrender, Abatai angrily gave the order to shoot the Ming army.

Heavy arrows like rain covered the slope, and despite the best efforts of the Ming army's shields to protect it, the Ming army continued to fall to the ground with arrows.

Liu Qu put the sword on his neck under the protection of his own soldiers, but his personal soldiers desperately grabbed Liu Qu.

"My lord! Reinforcements are coming, let's hold on! ”

Liu Qu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There will be no reinforcements!" If you want to come, you should have arrived a long time ago, and after I die, you will break through at night as soon as it gets dark......"

Just as he was giving an account of the afterlife, a detachment of men appeared in the distance. At the front of the group were a hundred and ten vans, and the rest of the men and horses were rushing forward behind them.

Looking at the sudden arrival of reinforcements, Nurhachi was furious. He rode on his horse and roared, "Why did Minggou's reinforcements appear here? What about the horses? What about not collecting at night? Are you dead? "Anyone who sees a boiled duck fly off will be furious.

The desperate Ming army also saw the reinforcements, and they cried with joy and shouted desperately.

"Rush over! Let's go home! Liu Qu's simple words inspired the fighting spirit of the Ming army, and the simple word of going home lingered in the hearts of every surrounded Ming army.

They seemed to see their parents, wives and children at home, and the only thing standing in their way was these damn slaves.

Whoever doesn't let them go home is their mortal enemy, an unending enemy.

"Kill all the slaves and go home together!" In the midst of the slogans, the Ming army burst out with a strong fighting spirit. They launched a desperate attack on the Jurchens, although many of them were shot by the Jurchens and fell to the ground.

But more rushed forward, and the surrounded Ming army did not seem to know what death was. Seeing the Jurchen steel knife slashing over, he didn't dodge or dodge, and would rather be slashed than stab the Jurchen armor soldier.

Seeing that the armor soldiers under his command were being defeated and retreating, Abatai continued to wield steel knives in the air.

"Push the cart up and blow up these crazy mud guys!"

Finally, the ten shield carts rushed towards the Ming army under the impetus of the Han army flag, and a Ming army saw that the shield carts rushing over did not flee in horror as before, but met them and blocked the advance of the shield carts with their own bodies.

Following his movements, the second and third Ming troops blocked the shield cart. There were even more desperate Ming soldiers who jumped over the shield cart and jumped behind the cart to cut down the Han army flags that pushed the carts.

An explosion sounded in front of the Ming army, but this time not only did not blow the Ming army back, but two shield cars were snatched away by the Ming army.

Looking at the shield cart rushing towards him, the Jurchens also began to be calm. This kind of devastating force was not something that could be defeated by bravery at all, and they also retreated one after another to avoid the impact of the shield cart.

Abatai's retreat made Nurhachi's face gloomy, and he immediately ordered: "Huang Taiji, you bring people to support Abatai, Azig, you take people to stop Minggou's reinforcements, you must not let them meet!" ”

Huang Taiji and Azig on the high slope each led their men and horses to rush down, and they divided into two teams and fought on the battlefield.

With the addition of Huang Taiji, Abatai finally stabilized the defense line and was able to block the crazy Ming army.

Anyone knows that the outbreak of the Ming army is temporary, and as long as they can resist it, these Ming troops will soon lose their strength and let them kill them.

Azig led thousands of men and horses to the side van, but before he could get close to the side van, it was bombarded by artillery.

Fortunately, if the Ming army wanted to open fire, they had to stop the side van, and Azig kept wandering outside the side van and kept harassing him.

"Boom!" A loud bang came from inside the side van, and a puff of smoke rose from the high ground where Nurhachi was watching the battle from a distance.
