Lushun was taken by Houjin in the sixth year of Chongzhen, Yue Tuo, who captured Lushun at that time, has been killed by the Ming court, interestingly, Lushun has a great relationship with Shang Kexi, when Shang Kexi was the general of the Ming army who stuck to Lushun, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming surrendered after the Jin Tartar, because the two had a grudge against the general soldier Huang Bing stationed in Lushun, and repeatedly instigated Huang Taiji to attack Lushun, Huang Taiji had no interest in Lushun, and could not withstand the repeated requests of Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, and decided to attack Lushun, in this battle, Shang Kexi's younger brother Shang Keyi died in battle, and many of Shang Kexi's relatives were captured by the Houjin Tartars, Shang Kexi was forced to surrender to the Houjin, and the general soldier Huang Bing stationed in Lushun committed suicide after the defeat.

It should be said that Shang Kexi is very familiar with Lushun, and it makes sense for Huang Taiji to ask Shang Kexi to assist Ye Bushu and train sailors in Lushun.

The city of Lushun is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, after six years of Chongzhen, Lushun has not encountered a war, and slowly began to calm down, and the trauma caused by the siege of the Houjin Tartars is also slowly calming down, but the Han people here always feel humiliated, under the rule of the Houjin Tartars, they are not convinced, and they always think about the Ming court to recover Lushun.

Shang Kexi is very clear, the Houjin sergeant does not have much foundation in Lushun, a few years ago, Huang Taiji did not pay attention to this place at all, all his thoughts were in Liaodong and the border pass, only to Su Tiancheng arrived in Liaodong, Huang Taiji had no way to attack in Liaodong, so he began to pay attention to this place in Lushun, but unfortunately the time was too short, and the Qing State lacked a foundation in Lushun.

Looking at the black artillery outside the city, Shang Kexi felt hopeless.

The prestige of the Jiangning battalion, he knows very well that the Han army led by Kong Youde is the most effective among all the Han troops. However, under the attack of the Jiangning battalion, there was almost no room for counterattack, and the 30,000 Han troops stationed in Dalinghe City were annihilated, and Yue Tuo and Kong Youde were captured alive and escorted to the capital of Daming. Kong Youde was executed by Ling Chi, and after a long time, Shang Kexi learned that the Jiangning camp took Dalinghe City, but in one day, the walls of Dalinghe City were higher than those of Lushun, and the city was stronger.

The prestige of the Jiangning battalion is by no means blown out, and whether it is brave or not in battle. Boasting is useless.

But Shang Kexi must resist, otherwise he will have no way to live.

After the surrender, Jin's life was not so good, although Huang Taiji's attitude was very good, and he was also very concerned about them, the surrendered Ming generals, but the rest of the Manchurian nobles did not have such a view, to put it mildly, their status in the Qing Dynasty. Even inferior to ordinary Manchurians, people can still hold their heads high and be the masters. But they can only keep their heads down and be careful, if they offend the Manchurians, then their lives will be even more difficult.

As for the Ming side, that's not to mention, they are rats crossing the street.

Su Tiancheng looked at the Houjin Tartar guarding the city wall. In fact, many of them are Han Chinese, these people used to be Ming troops, and after surrendering to the Houjin, they turned the knife edge. Fought against the Ming army.

Su Tiancheng will not be indecisive, in his plan, at most a week, he will occupy Fuzhou, Yongning, Xuancheng, Tieshan and Xuanzhou and other places, can not be delayed, at most a week or so, Huang Taiji will be able to know what is happening here, will find a way to mobilize troops to attack, if these places are occupied by the Jiangning battalion, and step by step, then Shenyang will be really dangerous, if it is not good, Huang Taiji will be forced to leave Shenyang and return to Changbai Mountain.

Just after Shin, the offensive began.

With artillery, Su Tiancheng will not ask the soldiers to attack the city first, relying on the power of the artillery to the greatest extent, minimizing the casualties of the soldiers, and the battle of attacking the city and pulling out the village, under normal circumstances, the casualties are very large, but Su Tiancheng changed this situation by setting up an artillery battalion.

A hundred cannons began to roar, and the earth trembled.

In an instant, the Houjin Tartar guarding the city wall was blown into the air, and the flags, barbed wire and other things on the city wall were blown away in an instant, and the moat in front of the city wall was also blown flat.

Shang Kexi was almost hit by a cannonball, if it weren't for the personal soldiers around him, who quickly carried him down the city wall, at this time, he might not have started the war, and he would have become a soul under the artillery fire.

In fact, Shang Kexi has lost the confidence to defend the city, not only him, but also the sergeants in the city, there is no confidence, and even some sergeants suggested, whether to escort the people in the city to resist on the city wall, and Shang Kexi, who has a trace of conscience, prevented such a practice, he knows very well that if he does this, I am afraid that there will really be no place to die.

When the artillery was still roaring, the sergeants retreated from the city wall one after another, but fortunately, the artillery of the Ming army, mainly aimed at the city wall and moats, did not extend inside, that is, the artillery did not blow up the houses and shops in the city.

In Lushun City, there are almost no people on the street, all the shops are closed, and the people have returned to their homes, hiding in the house and shivering, when fighting, it is always the people who suffer, who knows what the fate of the people will be after the city of Ludao is broken, if the Ming army also kills the people, the unarmed people have no chance to resist at all.

Half an hour later, the siege began, at this time, on the city wall, there was no one to see the Houjin Tartar, the bombed dizzy Houjin Tartar, still hiding under the city wall, dozens of meters away from the city wall.

An unprecedented siege battle began.

The soldiers of the Jiangning battalion climbed the city wall almost at the same time as the Houjin Tartars, and the top of the city wall was already potholed by artillery shells, there were gravel everywhere, and some buttresses were also blown away.

Without any extra movements, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion raised the flintlock pistols in their hands and opened fire on the Houjin Tartars who rushed over.

However, in ten minutes, a large number of soldiers climbed the city wall, and the golden tartars were suppressed to the edge of the city wall and began to retreat downward, and the scattered arrow rain was impossible to stop the attack of the Jiangning battalion soldiers.

Soon, the city wall was completely occupied by the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion, some of whom rushed down the stairs to the bottom of the city wall, and some of whom slid under the city wall along the ropes.

The battle between the two sides unfolded in the open space in front of the city wall.

From the Han army led by Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi, a lot of sergeants were drawn, and some of the Liaodong Han people were transferred from the middle of the Manchu Eight Banners, and only a few sergeants from the Manchu Eight Banners, these people's focus was to be familiar with naval operations, and they did not pay special attention to the training of personal fighting ability, and they were not opponents at all in front of the well-trained Jiangning Battalion soldiers.

A large number of Houjin Tartars fell in the fight.

The rise of Li Dingguo's killing, he almost forgot to ask the soldiers to open the city gate, he didn't need to attack the city in person, but when he saw a large number of soldiers on the city wall, he also climbed up, although He Renlong was not very reluctant.

The city gates were opened, and after the cavalry of the Jiangning battalion rushed in, everything was settled.

The Houjin Tartars on the open ground of the city wall knelt down one after another, and some of the Manchu Tartars who resisted stubbornly were quickly shot and killed, Li Dingguo cut down five Manchu Tartars in one go, and the excited waw wow scream, Li Dingguo, who was covered in blood, also made the Houjin Tartars feel afraid, they had never seen such a brave army, nor had they seen such a desperate person.

Most of the Houjin Tartars kneeling on the ground were former Han soldiers, but fortunately, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion did not kill the Houjin Tartars who had surrendered, which also prompted more Houjin Tartars to put down the weapons in their hands and kneel on the ground.

Soon, Ai Nengqi was ordered to lead a part of the soldiers to take the surrendered Houjin Tartars out of the city, and gathered them in a place to guard, these Houjin Tartars who walked out of the city, saw the majestic Jiangning battalion soldiers outside the city, and saw the shining armor, they all gasped, such an army, where can they resist.

Liu Wenxiu led the soldiers to extend towards the city, they first had to occupy the seat of the government, all the officials were guarded, and then they had to search for the escaped Houjin Tartars, the four gates out of the city, all were fenced, and it was impossible for the Houjin Tartars to escape through the city gates, only possible to hide in the city.

Liu Wenxiu's most important task is to find Ye Bushu, Ye Bushu is the son of Huang Taiji, if Ye Bushu is caught, it can be regarded as a sensational thing.

To say that the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion are also confident enough, when the battle is still going on, some soldiers began to clean up the battlefield, as if they were already winning, which is an expression of absolute confidence.

At the time of unitary, Su Tiancheng entered Lushun City.

When He Renlong, Liu Wenxiu, and Li Dingguo came to report, the expressions on their faces were a little gloomy.

"Dashuai, the subordinates searched in the official residence, captured a lot of officials, but did not find Ye Bushu monk Kexi, asked the surrendered Houjin Tartars, they also don't know the way, the subordinates suggested, is it in the city to carry out a search, Lushun City is so big, Ye Bushu monk Kexi if he hides in the people's homes, he will definitely be able to search out."

Su Tiancheng was a little surprised, the movements of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion were lightning fast, Ye Bushu and Shang Kexi had no chance to escape, as for hiding in the homes of the common people, the possibility was even less likely, once the Jiangning battalion occupied Lushun, the prominent Ye Bushu monk Kexi had no chance to leave.

He shook his head and rejected the proposal of He Renlong and others, if he broke into the homes of the common people to search, he didn't know what happened to the search, no matter what, the military discipline and military rules of the Jiangning battalion could not be violated, the city must not be slaughtered, and ordinary people must not be harmed, even if the people are full.
