"Ignition!"

In the trench outside Hefei, two Ming soldiers carried an iron pipe the thickness of a calf on their shoulders, and one of them stared at Nanxunmen, which was thirty zhang away. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In front of him, there was a wall of dirt, above his head, the earth stirred up by the cannonballs was constantly splashing, behind him, there was a specially dug open opening, another soldier was standing beside him, quickly lit the fuse on the iron pipe with a match, the fuse that burned quickly disappeared into the iron pipe in a blink of an eye, and suddenly a light rocket dragged the blazing flame out of the mouth of the pipe, and roared across the moat while the tail flame hit the parapet, and crashed straight into the city gate hole of the Nanxunmen Urn City.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sounded.

Even the Nanxun Gate Tower trembled visibly.

Of course, this is not the heavy rocket with 80 catties of gunpowder, in order to avoid causing a large number of deaths to the people, that kind of thing cannot be used here, this is just a light rocket with 10 catties of gunpowder, it is obvious that its explosive power is not enough to blow up the city gate and the earth and stones piled up behind, after all, this is gunpowder not explosives, but this is not a big deal, because then the first group of rocketeers retreated, and the second group of rocketeers carried the same rocket launch tube, aiming at the Nanfumen Gate that was still shrouded in dust and gunsmoke.

"Here we go again!"

A green worm on the city wall who had just stood firm let out a heart-rending scream.

Blazing flames swept across the moat in an instant.

"Fire!"

Yu Chenglong, who was holding the arrow stack, screamed.

"Boom!"

A second explosion rang out, and the shaking was so violent that he nearly fell to the ground.

The Qing army on the city wall screamed in horror, and they all aimed at the Ming trenches below and opened fire, a solid cannonball was hitting the front of the rocketeer who had not had time to retreat, and after passing through the two-foot-thick earthen wall, the shell weighing more than ten pounds almost flew over his shoulder, and then fell in the dirt behind him.

The rocketeer wiped the cold sweat on his head and hurried away.

At the same time, the third group of rocketeers stood in his original position, and dozens of pounds of rockets roared out again......

In fact, the simple city gate cannot withstand the bombardment of even one rocket, and the real difficulty is the earth and stone blocking the city gate behind, and these things can only be gnawed open little by little.

However, the city was not the main city wall after all, and when the explosion of the fifth rocket sounded, the city gate was easily blasted open.

Then there is the main city gate, fortunately, the south smoke gate is not the urn city gate that opens on the side, but is facing the main city gate, the rockets through the urn city gate one by one crashed straight into the main city gate, just after the fifteenth rocket entered, with the huge explosion, the inside of the south smoke gate obviously rose heavy gunpowder smoke and dust, and soon with the city gate cave the gunpowder smoke faded slightly, you can vaguely see that the light has been revealed inside.

Obviously, the gap has been blown open, but the bombardment is not over, the rockets are still flying in non-stop, and the artillery fire of the Qing army is also constantly attacking the Ming army below, braving cannonballs, shotshots, lead bullets from smoothbore guns, and those heroic rocketeers have shot ten rockets into it in a row, and the passage through which the Nanxun Gate was blown open is enough.

"Fire!"

With a sudden roar, inclined to stretch out to the Nanxun Gate in the trench, thousands of Ming soldiers who had already entered the combat position pulled the trigger almost at the same time, the originally silent earth, as if a volcano erupted, countless flames sprayed out from the edge of the trench, dense bullets whistling out from the muzzle of a gun to the city wall, at the same time all the snipers in the rear also fired, the stormy bullets hit the Qing army in mourning, those who stood in the wrong position, were even more splashed by the bullets.

"Rush!"

Directly opposite the Nanxun Gate, the commando captain waved his saber and shouted, and then the first one rushed out of the trench, and hundreds of commandos around him jumped out one after another, with a cork lifebuoy borrowed from the river fleet on their shoulders, and threw themselves into the wide moat, swimming to the opposite bank as fast as they could.

In the trenches behind them, all the Ming soldiers also opened fire as fast as they could, desperately suppressing the Qing troops on the city walls.

"Quick, block!"

Yu Chenglong, who was hit by bullets and didn't dare to raise his head, lay on the city wall and shouted at the thousands of Qing soldiers waiting to seal the gate in the city.

But at this moment, a flame suddenly passed through the open city gate, and crashed straight into the Qing army that rushed forward, and countless stumps and broken arms flew into the sky in the fire of the explosion, and at the same time, the fastest Ming army had also swam across the moat, and the commando captain rushed into the urn city gate hole first, and a large number of commandos swarmed in behind him, braving the fire of the Qing army on the main city wall, rushing through the dangerous urn city at the fastest speed, and directly into the door hole of the main city.

And after the initial chaos of the explosion, the Qing army inside the door also mustered up the courage and shouted to meet the battle, and then received a grenade and was blown up in a mess, but after all, there were many of them, and the Qing army in front of them was still stepping on the dead bodies of their companions under the crowding of the Qing army behind, and the Ming army who were about to rush out of the door were scuffled together.

The South Smoke Gate immediately turned into a meat grinder.

Just like in the warfare of the era of pure cold weapons, guns and grenades were useless in the narrow doorways, and soldiers on both sides were huddled together with bayonets, swords, spears, and even fists with everything they could use, and dead bodies were quickly piled up in the gates. At the same time, reinforcements from both sides were still pouring in from outside, but the vast majority of people could not enter due to the restrictions of the battlefield, in order to avoid being flanked inside the urn city, a large number of commandos had to be blocked outside the urn city gate, relying on grenade burning ping and outside the city to cover the battle with the Qing army on the urn city.

"Get ready to attack on all fronts!"

He Jin said with a frown.

Obviously, the Qing army that was cornered still had a certain combat effectiveness, and if the assault team continued to be blocked at the city gate and could not break through, this attack would be in vain, and it was better to take advantage of the opportunity that a large number of Qing troops were transferred down from the city wall at this time.

The order to storm was quickly given, and the Ming troops hidden in the trenches were immediately ready to storm the city walls.

At the same time, a large number of Ming troops in the rear also began to move forward, this trench is not enough to support a large-scale attack, once the strong attack must be carried out in the most violent way, not only the Nanxun Gate, but also the adjacent Desheng Gate and Shiyong Gate will also attack, but this will inevitably suffer some casualties, after all, the work of climbing the city wall itself is fatal.

And Yu Chenglong, who was on the city wall, also discovered the abnormal movement of the Ming army.

"Quick, the thief army is about to attack!"

He anxiously shouted to the gunners and musketeers, who were all lying behind the arrows and screaming with their heads held at this time because of the suppression of the Ming army's guns, especially the snipers.

"Get up, everyone will die if the city is broken!"

Governor Yu shouted.

His words are still a little useful, that's what the defenders of Nanjing City did at the beginning, and in the end, didn't all the captives in Nanjing City drag them to the Xiaoling Tomb and pile up Jingguan? Thinking of this, the old, weak, sick and disabled people of the Eight Banners and Baoyi also mustered up the courage to stretch out their guns one by one in braving the bullets that kept flying, or trembling to reload the cannons.

However, at this time......

"Mada, it's spectacular!"

Xu Shou looked at the Nanxun Gate in front of him in amazement, where the dense Qing army was blocked outside the door, and the sound of shouting and killing was coming out like a boil, and even the commando team had been killed, but it was blocked by the sea tactics of thousands of Qing troops, although the combat effectiveness of the Qing army was very bad, but thousands of people were blocked at a narrow city gate itself, which was already an effective defense, and it was said that thousands of pigs were blocked at such a density, and the Ming army could not enter the city.

Not to mention the fact that these are thousands of people with weapons.

"Brothers, kill!"

Without hesitation, he shouted with a wave of the revolver in his hand.

Behind him, countless people shouted in unison.

Well, this is the people in the city, the guerrilla attack in the city, the biggest effect is not to contain the Qing army, but to mobilize all the people who are hiding everywhere, after knowing that the Ming army entered the city, after seeing the Ming army killing the Tartars, how can the people who are already full of hatred still be able to endure it. Immediately after that, they poured out of their hiding places one by one, picked up the weapons of the Qing army that were killed by the Ming army, or simply took a shovel and hoe, and quickly rushed over with a group of Ming troops, at this time there were already thousands of people behind Xu Shou, and there were many more people pouring from the streets and alleys.

The entry of these people into the battlefield instantly determined the outcome of the battle.

The Qing army that was attacked by the enemy in the Nanxun Gate finally and inevitably collapsed, and the Qing army, which was originally composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled, screamed in horror and fled in all directions, and then was caught up by those ordinary people, and the meek sheep on weekdays immediately turned into fierce beasts, hoes, shovels, and even wooden sticks, and the Qing army with flintlock pistols had no resistance in front of them, and then they were killed by random sticks, shoveled down by shovels, and their heads were cut off by hoes, and even the people who killed red eyes rushed directly to the city wall along the steps of the city, Rush to rescue your relatives who have been held hostage.

"God will kill me!"

Yu Chenglong, who was watching this scene on the city wall, couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

At the Nanxun Gate that had been opened at his feet, those blocked commandos were surging in, and the Ming army that entered the city also began to rush up the city wall, the Qing army that had collapsed completely lost the courage to fight, and could only scatter and flee in panic, while more Ming troops outside the city were rushing out of the trenches, rushing to the moat, and rushing into Hefei City.

Obviously, the city is broken.

"Your Majesty, only a slave has a negative grace!"

Governor Yu screamed sadly and habitually knelt down on his knees to the north, and suddenly remembered that Kang Mazi had changed places, so he quickly turned to the west again, and then resolutely put the sword across his neck, it was obvious that Governor Yu was ready to repay us with this blood.

But just as he was about to pull the knife, suddenly something hit him the head, and then he fell to the ground in the dark.

Behind him, the green worm, who had touted him the hardest not long ago, was trembling with a broken brick. (To be continued.) )
