Luo Yang rushed to the gate of the city, led the troops to the city, a large number of Chinese officers and soldiers, quickly entered the city, but did not attack directly along the streets, but waited for the Qing army's counterattack, if the attack, in the case of equal weapons and equipment, the loss will be very large,

All the artillery came to the city, especially those foreign artillery units, which are indeed the strongest striking force at present, and the flying thunder cannon is a heavy weapon to bombard the enemy's infantry, and their power has been affected when the enemy is equipped with a large number of foreign artillery.

The troops of more than 4,000 people transported the follow-up shells and explosives packages to the front line, occupied thousands of kilometers of city walls, and set up layers of defensive positions relying on the city towers and some civilian houses under the city.

Luo Yang's estimate was not wrong, two quarters of an hour, that is, half an hour later, the large forces of the Qing army gathered and launched a deadly charge here,

Several general soldiers of the Qing army were sent to this line, because the loss of the city gate would shake the defensive front of the entire Qing army city, so the Qing court was furious, and more than 10,000 troops were dispatched here.

The Huaxia army stood still, waiting for the enemy's attack, and the Qing army immediately bombarded the artillery of the Huaxia army.

The Huaxia Army estimated the enemy's attack, adopted a deceptive method, hung the flag of the Huaxia Army on the foreign artillery on the city of the Qing army that was blown up, and also sent some officers and soldiers to hurry back and forth to attract the enemy's attention.

The Qing army used dozens of foreign cannons, bombarded fiercely, and then, attacked with infantry,

The Huaxia army still secretly followed Luo Yang's orders, concealed and endured,

"The bandit army is very rampant." Qing officers and soldiers are also worried,

However, something happened to their delight, a large group of Chinese officers and soldiers got out of their hiding places, abandoned their weapons and fled.

Then, dozens of officers and soldiers got out of the city and fled outside.

This was a sign of weakness, so the Qing army finally mustered up the courage and said, "Rush." ”

The terrible charge, the crowd of people rolling in the Qing army, made the blue-gray military uniform, the blood-red weft hat and red tassels, look particularly shocking,

A large number of Chinese officers and soldiers came out of the hidden place, turned around and fled, crying while fleeing, "Run, the Qing demon is coming." ”

The Qing army was frightened at first, and gradually became excited and crazy: "Hurry, the bandits have run away, the bandits are afraid." ”

The Qing army charged to a position of more than 100 meters, and was still vigilant, but watching more Huaxia Army infantry flee, they were suddenly high-spirited, and several officers of the Qing army rushed to the front line to show their bravery.

Fifty meters away, suddenly, someone shouted, "Shoot." ”

The Qing army is rushing fiercely, where do you care about this, continue to rush, some people have already brandished their sabers, aimed their foreign guns in front, and are ready to pull the trigger to shoot at any time,

More than 30 flying thunder cannons, more than 30 20-pound explosive bags, all fell on the heads of the Qing army with a bang, and then, the sound of explosions one after another filled people's ears and eyes.

The dense tide of Qing soldiers suddenly suffered heavy casualties, and thousands of people were wiped out.

Relying on the various terrain conditions near the city gate, the Chinese officers and soldiers took the defense as the attack, and the losses were very small, and the fierce artillery fire bombarded the Qing army to kill and wound one by one, and soon, the Qing army that came to attack found that most of the men and horses were gone, only the mountains of corpses and splashed blood, which were hideous in front of people's eyes.

"Alas, Qing Demon, I haven't grown at all, no wonder I'm bullied by foreign devils." Luo Yang sneered and said that the rest of the Chinese officers and soldiers were also very excited.

The Qing army did not dare to attack again, and two of the four chief officers had already been blown up, and although the remaining two tried their best to urge the soldiers to attack, everyone either pretended to be stupid, or deliberately slipped forward, so many corpses and blood, and if they pounced forward at will, there would be an excuse,

Prince Gong, one of the supreme rulers of the Qing court, after learning the news, personally went out and rushed to the vicinity, his appearance not only greatly shocked the morale of the Qing army, but also brought enough weapons and ammunition, and 8,000 officers and soldiers,

In any case, it is an inevitable choice to immediately recover the lost territory and restore the city fortifications, so Prince Gong did not hesitate at all, first summoned the commander-in-chief in charge of the command, asked a few words, and immediately shouted: "Drag it down and cut it down." ”

The saber flickered, blood splashed, and the fat bodies of the two commanders slumped on the muddy ground, which also became a scene of horror for everyone, Prince Gong was ruthless, and ordered the heads of the two commanders to be hung on high poles, and shouted to all the officers above the garrison who participated in the battle, asking everyone to take warning,

"The emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the queen mother of the two palaces are in the city, and we and other loyal officers and soldiers will inevitably fight to the death to protect the emperor and the queen mother of the two palaces.

Not only beheading, Prince Gong also announced ten beheading orders, and suddenly, let all the officers understand that this is the most severe moment, and if you don't fight to the death, you have to die.

The Qing army used artillery to bombard the enemy fiercely, Prince Gong was not a reckless person, his combination of grace and power soon made all the officers and soldiers glow with fighting spirit, many officers and soldiers on their faces, there is a despair that would rather die than give in, and there is the joy of generosity,

It is Prince Gong's ability to make a group of Eight Banners dare to fight.

This is not necessarily a good thing,

A new round of offensive by the Qing army, after the preparation of firepower, was overwhelming.

The officers and men of the Huaxia Army suffered many casualties, hundreds of them were killed and wounded, and in order to protect the artillery, especially the explosive bags used by the flying thunder artillery, the infantry who fled also reduced their strength.

Since Luo Yang has set up a defensive counterattack tactic, he ordered that, in addition to the necessary amount of use, the rest of the explosives packages should be placed outside the city gate to prevent the enemy's bombardment.

On this day, from early morning to noon, fierce battles continued, and in the end, the shells of the Huaxia army were almost exhausted.

Together with the previous Qing army of three or four thousand people, including the first wave of the four general soldiers who came to counterattack, more than 10,000 people, and the eight thousand people led by Prince Gong himself, most of them were explained here, and in the end, Prince Gong saw that the soldiers were killed and wounded too much, but they could not shake the enemy's position at all, so angry that he vomited blood and fainted to the ground.

20,000 Qing troops were killed and wounded on the position, and finally, the corpses were piled up waist-deep,

The surging blood converged and became countless small rivers, rushing towards all sides, smearing the entire battlefield into a terrible background.

The infantry of the Huaxia Army, who walked through the forest of these corpses with great difficulty, finally launched an attack on the Qing army, and the spirit of the Qing army had collapsed, and they turned around and fled in an instant.

More than 4,000 Chinese troops also lost more than 700 people and wounded 100, mainly due to the enemy's foreign artillery bombardment.

In front of dozens of foreign cannons, the Qing officers and soldiers had fled, leaving only intact cannons, and the piled up shells and blood had spread from hundreds of meters away, soaking the base of the cannons into disgusting pictures.

Luo Yang led the troops forward, collected and captured a large number of Qing rifles, ammunition, sabers, etc., and rescued the wounded Qing soldiers in one place.

The battle in the northeast of Beijing lasted six hours, and the Qing army was defeated, which determined the historical fate of the Qing court.
