After paying the losses of hundreds of people, the Shang family soldiers climbed the city again, this time the top soldiers of the family had a shield, and they blocked the shield above their heads and climbed up desperately.

With the shield covering, the soldiers of the family were effectively reduced when they climbed the city, seeing this, the Taiping army on the city cut a bag of lime and sprinkled it down the city, and suddenly there was a white fog under the city, and the soldiers with shields on their heads were not affected by the lime, but the companions under their feet were all choked by the lime. Many Qing soldiers choked on lime in their eyes, and they reached out to rub them, but the more they rubbed their eyes, the more painful they became, and the tears couldn't stop flowing. The lime entered the human eye, and it was enough to cry, and once it cried, it suddenly became boiling, and the pain made those Qing soldiers cry and cry. Finally, some Qing soldiers couldn't stand the lime sprinkled from the city and jumped off the ladder, and the Qing soldiers below who didn't have time to climb turned around and retreated directly, but they were quickly driven back, but it was Qin Guocheng, the commander of his own army, who led his own soldiers to supervise the battle there.

"The one who retreats is slashed!"

"Attack, no one is allowed to retreat!"

Looking at the city, Qin Guocheng was furious, and his flesh was full of pain, these soldiers were not only the heart of King Pingnan, but also the heart of Qin Guocheng, you must know that every soldier of his family was a soldier selected by him from the flag, but now he has buried so much in this Xinhui City, how can he not let his heart drip blood.

Under the supervision of Qin Guocheng, the soldiers of this family and those banner soldiers subconsciously turned around and climbed the city again, and every second, countless lives were lost in the city and under the city. Under the city walls, corpses are accumulating more and more. Both sides were red-eyed, and even those green battalions were red-eyed, desperately climbing up the ladder.

"Knock on the door!"

Seeing that Pancheng was unable to break through for a long time, Qin Guocheng drank the personal soldiers around him with a bloody face.

"Wow!"

Qin Guocheng's Goshha was not wearing cotton armor, but real iron armor, all of them were Liaodong athletes who were not afraid of death, they rushed to the city gate bravely, except for a few cars that crashed into the city gate, the others actually crashed directly into the city wall, and hit back and forth several times. A large pit appeared in the wall.

There are more and more pits in the city wall, and the Taiping army in the city has learned to attack them with boiling oil just now, but they can't do anything about these ironclad people wearing several layers of heavy armor, they are not afraid of boiling oil and fire at all. Except for a few ironclad soldiers who were burned, the other ironclad soldiers didn't even hide. However, the grass on the ground was scalded yellow, and the rocket was fired, and it immediately burned, but the fire was limited. You can't threaten the ironclads.

Dozens of ironclad soldiers pressed hundreds of battalions to constantly hit the city gate and city wall, while the rest of the battalion soldiers, under the command of the officer, took out the shovels hidden in the shield cart and dug at the root of the city wall, intending to hollow out the city wall, and then bury gunpowder to blow the city wall down.

The cave in the city gate is the dead end of the defenders, and the Taiping army in the city can't see them at all except poking their heads out to look, but the Qing army archers who are pressing the formation are very poisonous, and the Taiping army who specializes in picking up those probes shoots, and they are shot dead more than a dozen in a row. The Taiping army no longer dared to poke their heads out to check on the Qing soldiers in those dead corners.

"If it doesn't go on like this, sooner or later this city will be hollowed out by them!"

Zhou Shixiang was so anxious that he turned around, and saw a few long big stepping stones not far away, thinking about it, he shouted, and led more than a dozen personal soldiers to carry the long big stepping stones.

The long stepping stone was not only long, but also heavier, one piece weighed seven or eight hundred catties, and a dozen or so big men had great difficulty carrying it. More than a dozen young men rushed to help, and everyone worked together to slowly lift the long stepstone to the city wall. Let out a shout, raise it above your head hard, and then smash it towards the Qing soldiers below.

The boulder fell from the sky and "plopped" with a sound. Before the ironclad could react, he was smashed. Under the long stone, I don't know how many people were smashed, but the four sides were full of flesh and blood, the head, hands and feet were exposed, and blood and white sweat poured out from under the stones. It's disgusting.

A trick worked, Zhou Shixiang hurriedly asked the soldiers to move a piece again, this time to the south a little, and there were dozens of green battalion soldiers who were digging the roots of the wall and the wall below. A battalion soldier who was tired of digging looked up and looked up, and suddenly lost color, and screamed, and those battalion soldiers hurriedly stopped and looked up together, and before they could blink their eyes, a large stone slab had already smashed down. Except for seven or eight who ran fast, the other battalion soldiers were all hit, and like the previous group of ironclad soldiers, they were smashed to pieces and died, and they could not die anymore.

The large stone slabs smashed on the top of the city frightened the ironclad soldiers and battalion soldiers who dug into the corners of the city no longer dared to stay under the city gate, and they all retreated screaming.

At this time, there was a doubly passionate drum sound in the camp of the Qing army in the rear, but it was Shang Kexi who saw in the clairvoyant mirror that the siege had not improved for a long time, and ordered the drums to beat for the majesty of the siege soldiers.

The resistance of the Taiping army at the head of the city is also becoming more and more fierce, the two sides come and go, and there is a sound of guns on the battlements from time to time, but it is not only the guns that shoot down, but also the arrows.

Under the city, the arrows of the Qing army also rained down on the city. Some Qing soldiers who shot arrows well were even able to shoot arrows through small holes under the battlements, causing some damage to the Taiping soldiers hiding behind.

Before he could retract his gun, six or seven sharp arrows came at him, one of them in the left cheek, one in his right chest, and one in his neck, and he fell backwards with a scream. The gunners next to them saw it, which one dared to stand up with the charge and squatted there carefully one by one, after loading the medicine, they had to look around to make sure that there was no danger after rising, so they stood up at once, and did not look at it, facing the city is a gun, and then quickly shrank down again. The speed was so fast that even the sharpshooters of the Qing army were difficult to catch. Later, some of the archers of the Qing army who were good at archery only opened their bows and pulled the strings, but did not shoot, so they stared at the battlements, and did not shoot when they saw the Taiping army rising. In this way, he shot more than a dozen unlucky guards of the guards, but it also frightened the guards of the guards battalion who did not dare to raise their heads, and the sound of fire on the head of the city became more and more thin.

Under the city gate, the remaining ironclad soldiers are still there to hit the city gate, there are about more than ten ironclad soldiers and more than 30 battalions in the door hole, the stone slabs of the Taiping army can not hit them, and the earth-shaking thunder is also used up, seeing that the Taiping army has no way to take them, the Qing soldiers will hit the city gate unscrupulously, and the door pillars and stones behind the city gate are loosened, and the Taiping army behind the gate is frightened to quickly gather the young and strong, and they are in a hurry to block it.

The Qing soldiers who suffered the loss of the stone slab learned wisely, they no longer went to dig the city wall, but fired arrows at the city, these ironclad soldiers were sharpshooters, and shot many Taiping soldiers. The Taiping army only had firearms, bows, arrows, and crossbow arrows, and there was no way to take these Qing soldiers in iron armor, but to watch them shoot arrows at the city. (To be continued.) )
