Not only the Tartars, but also the surrendered troops who were preparing for the first attack on the city were even more frightened, collectively looking at the direction of the Tartar artillery battalion, and watching the two Tartar artillery battalions disappear in the artillery fire.

Several rounds of shelling resulted in the abolition of two Tartar artillery battalions, and soon the shelling turned towards the Tartar musket battalion, and one shell after another exploded in the Tartar musket battalion.
on the city walls.
The soldiers looked at the dense explosions outside the city, watching the shells explode one by one, and almost wanted to jump up and cheer if they didn't kill the soldiers, everyone knows that this is their own new cannon, which is so powerful!
The artillery fighters, methodical and orderly with everyone's coordination, shot out one shell after another, flew into the sky, and then flew to the Tartars, exploding in the midst of the Tartar crowd.
The crowd of the Tartars is too dense, because of the lack of understanding of modern artillery, the Tartars from the Duoduo down are still in a relatively primitive understanding, using a completely cold weapon fighting method, dense formation, set up a formation, so that every shell reflects a huge power.
One shell after another was fired, box after box of shells was emptied, the artillery fighters were completely in shape, 36 guns were fired, and the shells were fired quickly.
Outside the city, there was complete artillery fire, explosions, screams, the smell of blood, the smell of gunsmoke, and so on.
Duoduo was stunned at first, his face was full of horror, and he watched his two artillery battalions disappear in a daze, until his two artillery battalions were also covered by artillery fire, and Duoduo finally reacted.
"Retreat, retreat!"
In such a situation, where can you continue to attack, it is important to save your life, and as Duoduo yells, the Tartars finally began to retreat.
However, many people retreated in a mess, very panicked, Duoduo's inlaid white flag is slightly better, this is the Tartar elite after all, those surrendering troops are completely chaotic, swarming and retreating backwards, these surrendering troops are afraid of death, if it weren't for the fear of death, these surrendered troops would not surrender.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The dense explosions never stopped, and after the soldiers began to shell freely, the number of Tartar casualties increased rapidly, and even if they retreated, many were killed in the process of retreating.
Duoduo was also retreating, and under the protection of a large group of Tartars and Tartar generals, he was retreating away from Tianjin Wei and towards Langfang.
However, the cannonball didn't last long, and a cannonball whistled and exploded not far from Duoduo, and in the violent explosion, several Tartars, including one of the Tartar generals, were killed, screaming, neighing horses, and flying mud and sand.
Duoduo was also affected, splashing mud and sand, exploding shrapnel flew over, and the mud and sand splashed onto Duoduo's face, and in an instant, the blood on Duoduo's face was obviously broken.
There was a Tartar general next to him who didn't have such good luck, a piece of shrapnel flew over, penetrated the wild boar skin armor of the Tartar general, and inserted it into the belly of the Tartar general.
"Protect the master, retreat!"
Seeing that Duoduo was also injured, some people shouted and shouted, and more people covered Duoduo and quickly withdrew into the distance.
Duoduo was a fast runner, and it didn't take long for him to run away, finally running out of the range of the shells. And there are a lot of people who don't have that speed.
These people were unlucky, and were constantly killed by shells, starting from the Tianjin Guardrail Wall, extending all the way to the front of nearly a kilometer covered by artillery fire.
on the city walls.
Zhang Feng was condescending, looking ahead, watching the Tartar being constantly blown up, Zhang Feng thought happily in his heart, run, run, soon you will find that there is no way to run.
The Tartars have indeed had no way to escape, as the brigades and regiments have all reached the designated positions, the soldiers have been deployed in accordance with the tactics, everyone has completed the encirclement on three sides, and a huge encirclement has been formed, plus the Tianjin Guard City, that is, it is surrounded on all sides.
A huge encirclement encircled the seventy or eighty thousand Tartars, including the Tartar commander Dodor, in this huge encirclement, and the Tartars were completely unaware of it, and they were fleeing for their lives at the risk of being blown up.
"Commander-in-chief, they're retreating, haha......" Zong Dechao laughed.
Zhang Feng sneered: "It's impossible for them to run away, our huge encirclement has been formed, where are they fleeing." ”
Zong Dechao took the initiative to ask for battle: "Commander-in-chief, how about I personally take one or two infantry regiments out of the city and chase after the Tartars?" ”
Zhang Feng said: "There is no need, when the Tartars find that they are surrounded on three sides, it is estimated that some of the Tartars will attack the city like crazy, and we need to defend the city." ”
There are only about 5,000 soldiers in the entire Tianjin Acropolis, and the defense of the city is just right, and there are no extra troops to go out of the city to fight, Zhang Feng's mind is very clear, the task of these 5,000 soldiers is to defend the city, and to go out of the city is also to wait until the battle is about to end, when the soldiers go out of the city and clean up the mess.
Outside the city.
The chaotic retreat of the Tartars, including Duoduo, after paying heavy casualties, the Tartars finally got out of the artillery fire of the fighters, at this time, the fighters also stopped shelling, it was originally planned to finish all the shells, but because the Tartars ran away and ran out of the range of the artillery, there was no point in shelling again, so there were still a lot of shells left.
After such a fierce shelling, at least twenty or thirty minutes, the outside of the city was already devastated, and as far as the eye could see, there were corpses everywhere, craters everywhere, and in some places there was still smoke or burning.
Duoduo finally ran away, and seeing that there was no shelling, Duoduo also stopped, rode on horseback, and looked back in the direction of the Tianjin Acropolis, Duoduo also saw that he had suffered heavy casualties.
Looking at the Tianjin Acropolis fiercely, Duoduo didn't want to admit defeat, although the two artillery battalions suffered heavy losses, basically no longer existed, and the two musket battalions also suffered heavy losses, but Duoduo thought that he still had tens of thousands of people, and as long as he had the opportunity, he could make a comeback.
But now, it is not appropriate to attack again, on the one hand, after such a blow, the morale is very low, and on the other hand, and most importantly, Duoduo finds that he does not know enough about Zhang Feng, and even less about the defenders of Tianjin.
If he had known that the Tianjin Guards had such powerful artillery, Duoduo would not have blatantly set up his artillery battalion and musket battalion outside the city.
If there is no if, defeat is defeat.
Duoduo didn't know that Zhang Feng not only had a powerful breech-loading gun, but also a very advanced breech-loading gun, using copper-shelled bullets, this kind of breech-loading gun was not comparable to any musket, and even Dorgon didn't realize the power of this gun.
The Tartar had to pay a heavy price before it was possible to get to know this breech-loading musket.
Riding on horseback, Duoduo looked in the direction of the Tianjin Acropolis for a long time, and then said with hatred in his heart: "I will come back, I will come back with an army of 100,000, step on this place, kill all the people here, I will slaughter the city, even the common people will be killed, not a single one will be left." ”
Obviously, Duoduo can only think about it in his heart, but he is afraid that he will not have such an opportunity in his life, because the warriors have completed the three-sided encirclement, and Duoduo does not know that he has become a turtle in the urn.
"Withdraw! Cloister Square! ”
After thinking about it hatefully, Duoduo waved his hand and gave the order to retreat, preparing to return to Langfang, so the Tartar heralds began to convey the order, and the Tartars began to prepare to retreat towards Langfang.
However, it didn't take long for many Tartars to even prepare to leave, and it is estimated that the fastest Tartars did not go out of three or five miles, and soon a situation came.
A Tartar general panicked, covered in blood, miserable, was riding over, dismounted in front of Duoduo, and then stumbled over, knelt on the ground, and said miserably: "Master, it's not good, Zhang Feng's people cut off our way back to Langfang, their firepower is very fierce, and the warriors have suffered heavy casualties!" ”
What the!
Not only Duoduo, but the rest of the Tartar generals were also shocked, the retreat was cut off, it was impossible, aren't they all in the city, the city wall is densely packed with human figures, it is clear that there are at least tens of thousands of people, how can there be someone to cut off our retreat.
If it weren't for the fact that this Tartar general was miserable, as if he had gone through a big battle, Duoduo would have been a little unbelievable, but looking at the appearance of this Tartar general, it was clearly not like he was telling a lie.
Hearing this, Duoduo's brows furrowed, and years of experience told Duoduo that the situation was not good.
Duoduo hurriedly looked at the direction of Tianjin Wei again, Duoduo thought that since someone cut off his retreat in the direction of his retreat, the defenders of Tianjin Wei would definitely go out of the city, and then come to attack from both sides.
However, there was no movement in the direction of Tianjin Wei, and there was no sign of anyone leaving the city at all, and Duoduo suddenly didn't understand, how could this be?
Duoduo didn't think about it, there are not many people in Tianjin Wei at all, only about 5,000 people, it is these 5,000 people who are guarding the huge Tianjin Wei, those who look densely packed on the city wall, all of them are scarecrows wearing military uniforms and steel helmets, very realistic scarecrows, and real people are one to one size, if you don't look closely, you will definitely not see the flaws.
There are no pursuers behind, but there are people in front of them blocking them, so what's going on.
Duoduo couldn't figure it out, but Duoduo knew that he still had tens of thousands of people in his hands and would definitely be able to rush over, so Duoduo prepared an order to order the Tartars to break through the resistance of the warriors and return to the Corridor with his army.
At this moment, another Tartar general stumbled over, and said in fear: "Master, it's not good, we have a large number of Zhang Feng's people on the right, on the left, and in front of us, and they are thousands of them, all of them are firearms, and they are very fierce, and we are surrounded on three sides." ”
Surrounded on three sides!
Is it surrounded!
Many Tartar generals looked at each other, with a look of disbelief, and shouted wildly in their hearts, surrounded on three sides, how could he Zhang Feng have so many people, impossible!
