The general attack of the Fu Han army on the Qing positions outside the eastern city came quickly and fiercely. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

There was no time to move the artillery to the east of the city, so Chen Ming concentrated the mortar in his hand and allocated one hundred and forty or fifty more guns to the second garrison division in one go, and then he resolutely issued an order to attack the Qing army's position outside the east city. And it's a three-sided attack!

Ma Lantai, who was standing on the front line, was sharpening his saber with the masonry in the trenches, and behind him was a splendid green dragon flag with a yellow background.

Ma Lantai, a son of the Niu Colu clan, is still the nephew of Qianlong's old mother, don't look at his official son all the way to the first-class guard of the third grade, but he has never even touched the battlefield, he is a guard in Qianqingmen, compared with Changling, Ayintu, Duan Xiulin and other generals, he is as tender as a delicate lady. But now he had to come to the front - this precarious place, otherwise Feng Shengyi would definitely dare to kill his head.

In the trench area outside the east gate, Feng Sheng's forehead sent out all his personal guards, such as Ma Lantai, who was mixed in the center of the army, and was sent to the trench to supervise the battle.

Ma Lantai sharpened his saber, hoping that this treasure knife left by the ancestor from the time of Kangxi Ye could bring him martial luck. Suddenly, his ears roared, and he looked up to see that his own artillery on the head of the city was firing one after another. Ma Lantai didn't stretch out his head to see that the attack of the Fu Han army must have begun.

A puff of dust and smoke rose from the western position, and almost at the same time, the screams of mortar shells broke through the air!

Malanthai was in the northeast corner, he was sitting at the bottom of the trench, and he didn't enter the anti-artillery hole, he didn't think that he would be so stunned by the shells and fall into the tunnel. But ......, the shrill voice is really getting closer and closer!

Frightened, Maranthai didn't have time to get up, when he saw a ball of flame burst two or three feet away on the right side of the tunnel, and the flowering bullet really hit 'closer', and it landed right in the trench impartially. As soon as Ma Lantai screamed, the person was lifted high by a wave of qi, and then smashed heavily on the side wall of the tunnel, and his whole body was numb.

His face was wet, his nose smelled a thick smell of blood, and when he looked up, he could see that the trench was filled with gunsmoke, and there were terrible screams coming from the trench, and the soldiers on the edge of the trench were leaving here one after another as if they were hiding from the plague. Then his two goshkha stumbled over, and the two looked nervously at Marantei, opening their mouths wide in Marantey's ear to say something, but Malantai couldn't hear it clearly.

There is no cannon in the Fu Han army, but the small cannon is unusually dense, especially in the front, the flowering shells exploded in front of the attacking troops, and the billowing black smoke and the cover of the night, Chen Ming felt that the Qing army in Changzhou could not necessarily see the figure of the attacking troops of the second division of the frontal garrison. The first round of shelling here broke the battle flag, and then the overwhelming artillery fire made Malantai feel bad.

He mustered up all his strength to slap away the two goshkha who had fallen on top of him, and sat up staggeringly, "Two scraps." Don't hurry up and help me go to the anti-artillery hole. There's a fart to press on the master. With one shot, the three of us were all in a pile of mud. Then he nagged and scolded the Fu Han army.

He knew that there would be a bloody battle outside the East Gate tonight, who made the seventy or eighty thousand people in Changzhou City not expect that the other three sides would be lost so quickly? The Qing army had to defend the position outside the east gate, otherwise they would be completely locked in the city.

After a burst of yelling, Malantai's ears regained some hearing, and the man was dragged into an anti-artillery hole by the two Goshkha, where the sound of crying, moaning, and wailing could be heard. He shouted loudly on the spot, and when he scolded, the whole cave was silent. But soon the muffled crying sounded again in the cave.

Malantai's eyes lit up with a fierce light, and he didn't want to hear the cry now. Who is not afraid of death? He was also afraid. But he will not surrender. Crying is a coward in Marantey's eyes.

The war has been fought until now. Although there were not a few people in the Qing army who surrendered, except for the absence of commanders and provincial ministers, the prefect of the general army had a platform. But the middle and high-level figures of the Eight Banners, especially those who are full of the Eight Banners, really did not surrender.

Enduring the severe pain all over his body, Ma Lantai moved over step by step, grabbed an officer of the Eight Banners who was wiping his tears, and shouted: "Cry, your mother, cry? You're not dead yet, why are you crying!? "This man is a nephew of Marantai." Straighten up for Lao Tzu. After a while, if the two of us die on this position, they will also face Chen Rui to death, and we must not embarrass our Niu Colu clan. ”

It's a pity that Ma Lantai's nephew not only has the same greed for life and fear of death as Ma Lantai, but also lacks Ma Lantai's responsibility and dedication to the ancestors of the family lintel. Raising his eyes to look at himself Ma Lantai, he couldn't say a word with his mouth wide open.

The sound of cannon fire outside the cave faded away, and the dust falling overhead slowly decreased. Sporadic gunshots reached everyone's ears.

"It's a man's, all go with Lao Tzu! I remember it clearly, cut off a head for ten taels of silver, ten taels of silver! ”

Ma Lantai's roar brought everyone in the cave back to their senses, only to see Ma Lantai looking at everyone with a knife, and no one dared to delay, and they all carried knives and guns out of the anti-artillery hole.

Just when the Qing soldiers caught up with the position, the soldiers of the Fu Han Army with bayonets and swords and guns had already poured up. Gao Jinghui only invested three battalions of troops in this attack, one battalion on each side, but he made a bigger momentum on the front, and one or two hundred small and medium-sized plywood trucks were placed.

Malantai is the position of the northeast corner of the Qing army, facing the attack of the Fu Han army on the north side, but the artillery cover of the Qing army here is relatively less, and the firepower of the Qing army in the east city is aimed at the front.

On the position of Ma Lantai, the mortar artillery of the Fu Han army continued, and the grenades rained down, and the attacking troops of the Fu Han army attacked in the trenches again, and wanted to rely on muskets to block it, which was nonsense. The battle between the two sides is to throw grenades at each other first, and then purely hand-to-hand combat.

Marantai's nephew had disappeared from his eyes, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, or if he had fled. It seems that only a quarter of an hour later, the Qing army in the northeast corner position could not support it. But Ma Lantai didn't want to escape, and fled back and was hacked by Fengsheng?

He is a Manchurian, he is the Niu Co Lu clan, and the Niu Co Lu clan is the emperor's mother family! It's okay to die on the battlefield, but dying in the hands of Fengsheng is really insulting to the spirit of the ancestors in the sky. Although Maranthai had never seen so much blood, so many dead people.

The sound of fighting soon fell in the northeast corner.

Ma Lantai was still scolding in his mouth, but his voice was getting quieter and quieter, and his vitality was disappearing faster and faster. The cold chill filled his body, and the chest and abdomen were pierced by a bayonet, and the gurgling blood took away his energy and soon his consciousness.

……

Chen Ming had been paying attention to the battle situation in Dongcheng, but he did not come to the front line in person, because he was waiting for the Qing army's horse team to come. This fire-fighting moth.

The Qing army's horse team did not stay in the city of Changzhou, but cruised outside the city, and retreated to the direction of Wuxi when it was dark.

And now, this group of horses has appeared in the west of Changzhou City.

"Report to your lord, Chen Wei's infantry has launched a surprise attack on the position outside the West Gate! The morale of the officers and soldiers was low, and the northwest corner had fallen. ”

"Report ......, Chen Wei's infantry has broken through to the front line of the official army, and the officers and men of the official army are desperately resisting."

"Chen Rebellion's offensive was fierce, and the defenders of the position outside the West Gate were difficult to resist. Now the position outside the West Gate has been lost! ”

"......, Chen Wei began to attack the positions outside the north and south gates......"

Successive battle reports poured into Wuge's front in an uproar. Wu Ge trembled inside, he knew that the army had miscalculated. The defense line that everyone has worked so hard to build will really collapse overnight under Chen Wei's blow.

Cavalry!

Now only cavalry can be relied on, and only cavalry can be relied on. Use cavalry to turn the tide.

"Send a message to the general, so that the city must hold on. The cavalry is on the move. ”

After the pacification of Amur Sana, he did not go to the battlefield in person for more than ten years. But Wu Ge is still sharp, the situation has come to the current point, and he still has the courage to break the kettle.

Although he didn't know if Feng Sheng's forehead could block the attack of the Fu Han army outside the east gate.

But that's a matter of abundance, and what Wu Ge has to do now is what he can do.

A team of 4,000 horses slowly moved on the flat fields of Changzhou.

Wu Ge took them from Changzhou East around the boss in a circle, moved to the shore of Zhuhu Lake, seven or eight miles away from the No. 1 artillery position, sharpened his knife immediately, and just waited for the soldiers of the Fu Han army to attack the east gate, and then he made a blow and killed the artillery of the Fu Han army. It's a pity that Wu Ge didn't know, his caution was all useless, before he led the cavalry around the edge of the lake, Chen Ming 'saw' a military qi towards the flank of the Fu Han army, and ordered the reconnaissance troops to carefully probe the news over there.

The front line erupted in a burst of high-pitched cheers. Soon the news came that the attacking 2nd Garrison Division had captured the northeast corner. Chen Ming and the other high-ranking members of the Fu Han Army all showed heartfelt laughter on their faces at this moment.

The northeast corner has been opened, so is the southeast corner still far away? The two corners are gone, and the east side is coming to an end. If it weren't for the horse team wandering outside the Qing army, Chen Ming would have already asked the artillery to move the artillery. At least remove a batch of 10-pound cannons and 12-pound cannons and block the city gates.

The Second Garrison Division fought very well tonight, like a sharp knife, decisive and invincible!

So they have reason to cheer.

Chen Ming looked up at the west, he wanted to watch the Qing army's horse team disappear. He believed that with the soldiers of the Fuhan Army who had prepared in advance, they would never let themselves down.

More than 4,000 cavalry, in the dark night, like a hungry wolf quietly approaching the artillery position. Before devouring the delicious fat of the artillery position, they also needed to tear apart the defensive positions of the 3rd Division on the periphery. Of course, Wu Ge didn't think that his more than 4,000 horses could sweep the entire garrison of the Fu Han army's artillery in front of him, all he wanted was to pass through, pass between the garrison positions of the Fu Han army regardless of casualties, and then sweep all the artillery of the Fu Han army.

Even if the whole team is buried for this!

Twenty minutes later, red emergency flares rose into the sky. The cavalry of the Qing army was dispatched. The highest level of early warning was issued by the reconnaissance unit.

"Soldiers, warriors of the Qing Dynasty,...... Kill! Rebellion—"
