Chapter 61: The Battle of Yingtianfu (5)
In order to avoid accidental injury, when Zheng Jiajun reached the city, the artillery suspended the attack.
The speed of Zheng Jiajun's march this time was too fast, and the siege equipment prepared before was still on the road and had not been transported.
Under the city, dense Zheng soldiers were carrying simple ladders on the city wall, desperately climbing up.
The Qing army sentries on the wooden poles in Nanjing saw it and hurriedly sounded the gong.
When Marseille heard this, he immediately ordered the Qing soldiers to go to the city.
The Qing soldiers rushed up to the city and fought with the Zheng army who had climbed up first.
The Qing soldiers were in a hurry and could not resist the impact of the Zheng family's army at all, and the killed retreated step by step.
"Quick, quick, attack Lao Tzu!"
Liu Guoxuan had already climbed to the top of the city, fighting hard with the Qing army, and at the same time hoarsely beckoning the soldiers under the city to climb the city tower as soon as possible.
But there are not many soldiers who can really follow Liu Guoxuan to climb to the top of the city, and the towering and solid city wall of Nanjing is far beyond the ordinary city.
Liu Guoxuan held a shield in one hand and waved a knife in the other, slashing left and right, like a fierce tiger, the whole person seemed to crawl out of the river of blood, and Yin Red was like a fierce god.
Under Liu Guoxuan's hard work, more and more soldiers of the Zheng family army were rushing to the city through this gap, and for a while, more than 100 people had poured into this section of the city wall.
Marsai saw it and shouted, "Ke Qui! Lead the troops to Lao Tzu to plug the gap! ”
Hangzhou Angbang Zhangjing Ke Kui hurriedly drank: "Yes! ”
Ke Kui led his subordinates to rush over, and after squeezing out the Qing soldiers who were blocking the way, "Little thief, die to Lao Tzu!" ”
With a deep drink, Liu Guoxuan felt an extremely fierce wind hitting his head.
Liu Guoxuan hurriedly raised his knife to meet him, and the sound of "Qiang Qiang Qiang ......" gold and iron colliding continued to sound.
Liu Guoxuan is young in the end, not Ke Kui's opponent at the peak.
Liu Guoxuan was slashed by Ke Kui's powerful force and retreated.
Liu Guoxuan was overwhelmed by Ke Kui's knife.
The Zheng soldiers behind him had no space, and it was difficult to attack the city for a while.
Ke Kui was unforgiving, and slashed down with his knife again.
The tiger's mouth broke, and Liu Guoxuan's big knife flew away.
Ke Kui roared, and the big knife in his hand slashed down, wanting to cut Liu Guoxuan in half.
Liu Guoxuan had no weapons to resist, so in a hurry, he grabbed the ladder behind him, and kicked on the city wall with his right leg, and the ladder soon fell westward in a parabola.
Ke Kui's broadsword slashed into the ground, sparks flying.
Liu Guoxuan escaped by luck, but Nancheng City is more than ten meters high, and if he falls like this, he will immediately fall into a meat patty.
Fortunately, the city was full of Zheng Jiajun, and when the ladder was about to fall to the ground, the soldiers of the Zheng family army saw that dozens of soldiers were busy stepping forward to support the ladder.
Under the effect of the soldier's desperate support of the ladder, the ladder slowly fell, and Liu Guoxuan landed safely.
"Damn, it's your fate!" Looking at Liu Guoxuan, who was safe and sound in the city, Ke Kui spat hatefully, and continued to lead people to continue to plug the gap very unwillingly.
Liu Guoxuan drove people down to the city, and his lungs exploded.
Push away the creeps that are about to climb up, and grab the ladder as if you have climbed the city and fought again.
As soon as Liu Guoxuan took a step, his shoulders were pressed.
When Liu Guoxuan turned around angrily and wanted to scold the other party, he saw that it was Gan Hui who came.
"Brother Gan!"
Gan Hui looked at Liu Guoxuan's cracked tiger mouth and said, "Little Brother Liu, go and bandage your hands first!" ”
Liu Guoxuan hurriedly said: "Brother Gan, I'm fine, I can kill again!" ”
Gan Hui said with a straight face: "You are not his opponent, let me deal with him." You step back first! ”
When Liu Guoxuan wanted to say more, Gan Hui drank: "Don't you even dare to listen to my words?" ”
Seeing that Gan Hui was angry, Liu Guoxuan said helplessly: "Yes, big brother!" ”
Liu Guoxuan, escorted by several soldiers, retreated to bandage his wounds.
Gan Hui grabbed the ladder and climbed up quickly. "Little ones, kill me!"
Under the attack of 100,000 Zheng Jiajun, the city of Nanjing is like a small boat in the waves, which will overturn and sink at any time.
The full generals also knew the importance of Nanjing City, and at this time, they all went into battle in person and rushed to the front line with the Qing soldiers.
Under the leadership of the Qing army, the Qing soldiers also fought quite tenaciously, and the head of the city was guarded.
As soon as Gan Hui went up to the city, he saw Ke Kui driving a pair of Zheng Jiajun off the city.
Gan Hui roared angrily and led dozens of personal guards to attack Ke Kui.
Ke Kui knew that the person who came was Gan Hui, the fierce general of the Zheng family's army, and hurriedly raised his sword to meet him.
Gan Hui's knife is like wind and rain, stretching endlessly.
After blocking Gan Hui's more than a dozen knives in a row, Ke Kui also became angry, holding the knife in one hand, wielding the big knife like a wind, and soon fought with Gan Hui to a draw.
After more than ten rounds, Ke Kui knew that he was not Gan Hui's opponent.
But at this moment, he can't think too much, so he can only fight to the death with his opponent with his own strength.
The sound of the big knife wind was fierce, like thunder, and the knife wind brought over his face and even made Ke Kui feel pinprick-like pain.
"Hey ......!" After a loud shout, the big knife in Gan Hui's hand went straight through the layers of defenses and stabbed Ke Kui's chest.
Ke Kui's breathing suddenly became short, he gritted his teeth violently, and slashed at the opponent's neck with all his might, completely in a life-threatening way.
Gan Hui drew his knife and spun around, dodging Ke Kui's blade, and slashed diagonally.
Blood splattered, and the cotton armor on Ke Kui's right chest was separated, and a bottomless wound was cut on his strong chest muscles.
Blood splattered suddenly, and blood gushed like a fountain.
Ke Kui's personal soldiers saw that they were busy leaving the Zheng family soldiers who were fighting, and protected Ke Kui, who was pale and sweaty.
Without Ke Kui's charge, the Zheng army, under the leadership of Gan Hui, occupied the advantage of the city and retreated the Qing soldiers step by step.
Seeing that Ke Kui was slashed, the Qing army at the head of the city was killed and retreated.
Guan Xiaozhong hurriedly shouted: "My lord, you can't wait any longer, let's do it quickly!" ”
Seeing that the Qing army at the head of the city could no longer resist the Zheng family's army, Marseille gritted his teeth and shouted: "Do it!" ”
Under the somewhat puzzled gaze of Gan Hui and his soldiers, the Qing army ran out of a thousand Qing soldiers from behind and threw countless clay pots towards Gan Hui and the Zheng family army under the city.
The crockpot smashed on the soldiers of the Zheng family army, bursting open, and the hot oil juice poured on the body, boiling the flesh and skin of the soldiers, revealing only the white bones.
Looking at this terrifying situation, the offensive of the soldiers of the Zheng family army was stagnant.
After the crockpot was thrown, Gan Hui saw that there were dozens of Qing soldiers behind him who were rushing towards this side with torches.
"Not good!" Gan Hui is so experienced that he immediately knows what the other party is going to do. He didn't care about continuing to attack, and roared fiercely: "Quick, get out of the city!" ”
Gan Hui turned around and ran, grabbed the ladder, and slid down at a rapid speed.
As soon as he landed, Gan Hui didn't look back to the ground, and ran forward quickly.
"Throw torches!"
The shouts of the Qing army came and went!
Gan Hui didn't run a few steps, and the falling torch instantly ignited the boiling oil, and immediately burst into flames, turning the city and part of the city head into a sea of fire.
The fire came quickly, and Gan Hui's trousers were stained with a little boiling oil, and they caught fire in an instant.
Gan Hui rolled around and tried his best to extinguish the flames.
Gan Hui saw the opportunity quickly, but before some soldiers with slower hands and feet could escape, they were surrounded by flames and fell to the ground in wailing.
The Qing soldiers who were still fighting fiercely were also burned and burned to death by boiling oil in their own fields.
Only a small number of agile soldiers of the Zheng family army broke away from the city and fled back to the formation in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, Zheng Chenggong shouted angrily: "Artillery battalion, give me a hard beat!" (To be continued.) )
