Arrows rained down, and the sound of killing shook the heavens and the earth. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The 30,000 Qing army, under the leadership of the Manchu Mele Ezhen Li Shutai, was launching a fierce attack on Jiangyin.

In the southern city of Jiangyin, the Qing army has braved the swordfish bricks and stones at the head of the city to erect twelve pontoon bridges on the moat. Countless green battalion soldiers carried the ladder and ran along the pontoon bridge to the bottom of Jiangyin City.

The bricks and stones at the head of the city were raining, and every moment there were green battalion soldiers screaming and falling in a pool of blood, but the butcher's knives in the hands of the Eight Banners forced them to risk their lives to continue the siege.

Long ladders were erected at the head of the city. The green battalion soldier with a sharp blade and a round shield climbed towards the city.

"Knock the ladder down!" At the head of the city, Yan Yingyuan calmly commanded, a group of several village soldiers, holding a long fork in their hands, forked the cloud ladder exposed on the upper side of the battlement, jacked it hard, and then pushed it to the side, the cloud ladder fell down the city wall, and there were immediately screams below, and five or six green battalion soldiers who climbed on the cloud ladder screamed and fell.

There are also some ladders with their heads under the battlements, and they can't be forked down in the same way, so some villagers lift bricks and stones and push them down the battlements, so there are screams from the city.

The sound of the bowstring sounded, and round after round of feather arrows shot from the city to the city, which was the Qing army archers covering the green battalion soldiers to attack the city.

For the bows and arrows of the Qing soldiers, the township soldiers at the head of the city have long been prepared, and each battlement has a special dozen soldiers responsible for defense, half of which hold wooden shields in their hands, which are made of thick door panels.

Not to be outdone, the village archers at the head of the city drew their bows and arrows to give the Qing soldiers color, although their archery skills were far inferior to the well-trained Qing soldiers, but they had a condescending advantage, so that they could slightly make up for the lack of archery.

"Ahh A country archer had just emerged from the battlement, and before he could take aim, an arrow of feathered fire came from under the city, striking him in the left eye, and he fell on his back with a scream.

It's amazing! The other village archers were so frightened that they no longer dared to emerge from the battlements.

Seeing that after attacking for a long time, he still couldn't really attack the city, Li Shutai finally couldn't bear it anymore, and sent his Eight Banners soldiers to cover the green battalion soldiers who were besieging the city.

The archery skills of the Eight Banners are far superior to those of the Green Battalion, and they are not comparable to the township soldiers who have not undergone much training at the head of the city. Five hundred and eight banner archers lined up under the city, immediately bringing disaster to the defenders at the head of the city. As soon as many villagers probed from the battlement, before they could throw bricks and stones down, they were immediately shot by the archers of the Eight Banners under the city, and dozens of villagers fell under the arrows. The arrows of the Eight Banners were shot extremely accurately, and the villagers were either shot in the face or in the eyes, and many died without saying a word.

"Shieldman cover!" A small leader of the villagers shouted, and a villager with a shield came to hear the sound, and stretched the shield out of the battlement, and the other villagers took the opportunity to throw the bricks and stones down the battlement.

A feathered arrow flew from under the city, through the gap between the shield and the wall, and hit the shield bearer in the chest, and the shieldman screamed, and with a shake of his hand, the shield fell down from the city.

Yan Yingyuan, who commanded the battle at the head of the city, gasped, the archers of the Qing army were so accurate!

"Don't show your head again, everyone!" Yan Yingyuan said in a deep voice.

If you don't show your head, won't you let the green battalion soldiers climb up? The villagers at the head of the city were stunned, but out of trust in Yan Yingyuan, they silently distanced themselves from the battlement.

Seeing that the Ming army at the head of the city no longer threw bricks and stones, the green battalion soldiers who climbed on the ladder were all overjoyed, and they accelerated up one by one, and soon approached the head of the city.

Finally attacked the city, and Li Shutai, the main general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty who was watching the battle, couldn't help but sigh a sigh. Tens of thousands of Qing soldiers attacked a small county town, wouldn't it be a joke if they couldn't even attack the city wall!

A valiant Green Battalion soldier was the first to climb to the top of the city, but before he could remove the steel knife he was holding in his mouth, a spear stabbed through the battlement.

"Yikes!" He hurriedly used his shield to block it, and the tip of the spear was piercing the shield, and before he could secretly rejoice, suddenly a strong force came, and he felt that his feet could no longer stand on the ladder, "Ah! He screamed in terror and rolled and fell to the head of the city.

The three village soldiers shouted happily, and quickly moved away from the battlement, just now the three of them worked together to push the green battalion soldiers down the city.

There were one or two pikemen in each of the battlements, and as soon as a green battalion soldier appeared from the battlement, everyone would work together to push him down. So Li Shutai was angry and found that although the green battalion soldiers attacked the city one after another, no one could gain a foothold in the city.

"You can't count on these green battalion soldiers!" Li Shutai led the way to the soldiers around him.

"Lord Dutong, the last general is willing to personally lead people to attack the city, and he will definitely attack the city and defeat Jiangyin!" Leader Hurlu is a real Manchurian, and he has long looked down on the cowardice of the Green Battalion soldiers.

"Okay, Khurlu, you will lead your men to attack the city personally, as long as you can defend a section of the city wall, I will credit you for your first credit." Li Shutai said in a deep voice.

Kuerlu gave a military salute to Li Shutai, walked to the side and began to put it on, soft armor, chain mail, and armor, he put three layers of armor on his body, and carried a thick mace like a bear in front of the formation, behind him were thirty Eight Banner soldiers who were also fully armed, although there were only thirty people, but they exuded an earth-shattering aura.

With Li Shutai's order, Hu Erlu crossed the moat with thirty heavily armed Eight Banner Warriors and came to the city of Jiangyin, and the green battalion soldiers on the side of the cloud ladder under the city scattered one after another.

With a wave of his hand, the thirty men were divided into three groups and crawled along the three to the head of the city.

With a mace in one hand and a ladder in the other, he climbed the ladder and climbed the way up, and the bricks and stones at the head of the city kept falling down the battlements, all of which he waved his mace to the side.

Soon Hurlu climbed to the top of the city, took hold of the battlements with one hand, and leaped to the wall.

A glittering spear stabbed at the head, and Hurlu swung his mace and swept it, and with a "click" the barrel of the spear was swept into two sections, and Hurru had already jumped onto the city wall.

"Kill!" The villagers guarding the battlements held all kinds of weapons in their hands and fought hard to kill Huerlu.

Hurru swung his mace, smashing a pawn's weapon with each swing, "Hey, hey, hey! Huerlu shouted three times, took three steps in succession, and with each step he smashed one of the villagers in front of him, ignoring the weapons of the other villagers.

"What's going on?" A villager was shocked to find that the spear in his hand could not pierce the body of the bear-like Eight Banners soldier opposite. Not only him, but the weapons of the other villagers were also blocked by Khurlu's three-layer armor, and they couldn't hurt Khurlu's body at all.

Following the road opened by Huerlu, another Eight Banners soldier jumped onto the city, and the situation suddenly became very dangerous!
