Ignoring the artillery at the head of the city, Li Shuotai urged 1,200 full troops to approach the city of Jiaozhou. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info another hundred cavalry were cruising in the distance, guarding against possible enemy attacks.

Three hundred full soldiers lined up in front of the moat and began to shoot arrows at the head of the city. The moat was only one zhang from the city wall, and the city wall of Jiaozhou was only two zhang high, so the full army archers could easily shoot arrows at the head of the city.

Originally, the musketeers of the Daishan Army were shooting down from the battlements, shooting the Manchu soldiers who were approaching the moat. But before a few shots were fired, the arrows under the city were fired in unison, and immediately there were more than a dozen Daishan musketeers with arrows, turning over and falling, most of them were arrows in the front door, which shows that the arrows of the full army are extremely accurate.

The other musketeers were too frightened to poke their heads out to observe, but simply shot their guns out of the battlements and fired with feeling.

Only 300 archers suppressed the Ming army at the head of the city, and the other full soldiers began to fill the moat with the earth and stones they carried, and soon filled in a road ten zhang wide, so the full army finally reached the city wall.

More than a dozen full soldiers carried a pair of ladders, put the ladders to the head of the city, and one by one the Manchurian warriors climbed the ladders with steel knives and began to climb the city.

When the ladder is erected, the hypothetical position is very tricky, and the top of the ladder is just under the battlement, so that although the last section of the wall is a little troublesome when climbing the wall, there is no need to fear the defenders lifting the ladder with forks and turning it down to the bottom of the city.

At the head of the city, the lookout of the Ming army held a shield on his hand, looked out from the battlement, and reported loudly the location of the ladder placed by the full army.

The Ming soldiers on the city wall threw the ash bottles one by one into the city according to the report of the lookout, and suddenly there were bursts of coughing sound from the city. Many of the soldiers were blinded by the lime and fell down the ladder screaming.

There are even Ming soldiers who lifted the boiling hot oil pot, brought it to the buttress with a ladder, and poured the hot oil down. Immediately there was a terrible scream from below. A torch was thrown onto the ladder, and the whole ladder immediately took up a large torch, and the soldiers covered in fire jumped down the ladder screaming, and broke their bones and tendons one by one.

A piece of wood was lifted by several Ming soldiers, carefully lifted to the top of the battlement, and with a slight push, the wood rolled and fell down the city, smashing the ladder, and the full soldiers who climbed on the smashed ladder sprayed blood.

In a round of attack, none of the full soldiers could climb to the head of the city, but dozens of people were killed and wounded, Li Shutai was furious when he saw this, and ordered all the full soldiers to shoot covering bows and arrows at the head of the city.

Hundreds of arrows were thrown to the head of the city, and then fell from mid-air, like raindrops on the head of the Ming army, most of the defenders at the head of the city were new soldiers, there was no armor on their bodies at all, where could withstand the arrows of the full army, there were dozens of people killed by arrows on the city wall at the moment.

An arrow was hit on the side of a burning hot oil pot, and the whole oil pot was immediately knocked to the ground, and the hot oil flowed on the city wall, and several Ming soldiers nearby felt a huge burn on the soles of their feet, jumping their feet and exhaling pain, an arrow flew in, hitting the neck of a Ming army, he stopped shouting, and poofed in the hot oil, and no longer felt the pain.

A round of arrows was fired, and in the blink of an eye, the head of Jiaozhou City was repeatedly covered by bows and arrows full of soldiers, and the Ming army on the head of the city suffered heavy casualties. They were all new soldiers, and when they died, they died, and the soldiers who were not dead or wounded were crying out in pain, and the whole city was in a panic.

Experienced veterans would hide under the battlements or cover their heads with shields, while the recruits had never been in battle and didn't know what to do at the moment, just shouted in panic.

Taking advantage of the archers' covering shots at the head of the city, more than a dozen ladders were erected at the head of the city, and one hundred and ten warriors with full troops climbed on the ladders and quickly climbed towards the head of the city.

"The full army is coming up again!" A Daishan veteran with a shield on his head, risking his life to observe the movements under the city, warned loudly.

But at this time, the recruits at the head of the city were in a panic, one by one hiding under the wall like quails, trembling, and no one dared to brave the rain of arrows to stop the enemy's attack.

"Set up, let them up!" Huang Fengwu said suddenly.

"Are you crazy?" Ren Siqi looked at her in amazement.

"Don't you think this city wall is the best training battlefield?" Huang Fengwu smiled, "The arrows of the full army are too powerful, our soldiers can't show their heads to attack their ladders, instead of this, it is better to use this city wall as a battlefield, this battlefield we can occupy an absolute advantage." They can only climb one person at a time, and we can set up a position near the ladder and wait for them to come up. After the full army enters the city, the full archers under the city will naturally no longer shoot arrows, and we can calmly deal with a small number of full soldiers! ”

Ren Siqi thought it carefully, and felt that Huang Fengwu's idea seemed ridiculous, but it was very reasonable, so he immediately ordered it to do what Huang Fengwu said.

The Ming army at the head of the city gave up the attack on the ladder and formed more than a dozen groups, mainly the existing veterans. Shielding their bodies with shields, a dozen spears from each group were aimed at the battlements, quietly waiting for the full army to show up.

The full soldiers on the ladder were getting closer and closer to the city, and for fear of accidental injury, the arrows shot at the city were much more sparse.

Finally, a full soldier climbed to the end of the ladder and reached the city wall with his hands. As soon as he took off the title from his mouth, he was about to jump onto the city wall with a strong buttress of battlement, but he was shocked to see more than a dozen Ming soldiers looking at him coldly.

Five or six spears stabbed at the same time, and the Manchu soldier hurriedly used the steel knife in his hand to block, but at this moment, his feet stepped on the ladder, one hand held the city wall, there was no room to dodge at all, the steel knife could block one or two spears, but it couldn't block five or six at all.

Two spears pierced through his sword and stabbed him in the chest, but the soldier was wearing three layers of armor, and the spears pierced twice, but they were blocked by the third layer of armor, and they could not pierce his body at all.

The soldiers sneered, and were about to swing their knives to cut off the two spears, the two Ming soldiers used force at the same time, pressing the strength of the whole body to the spear barrel, if this strength was flat again, the full soldiers were not afraid at all, but now his feet were stepping on the ladder, and there was not much relay at all, so he felt a strong force coming, and his body involuntarily leaned outward, and his body was empty, falling towards the city.

The full soldiers of the other cloud ladder were particularly brave, and their knife skills were excellent, and when the steel knife was waved, they actually cut off six or seven spears that stabbed him in succession, and the hand that was propped on the city wall jumped into the city wall with a strong force. The steel knife was waved continuously, forcing back several Ming troops who were attacking him, and confronted more than a dozen Ming troops with their backs against the city wall.

As soon as the leading Zhoushan Army Xiaoqi gave an order, more than a dozen spears stabbed at him at the same time. The Manchurian warrior screamed, swung his knife and slashed five spears, his body flashed, and with a clamp of his left hand, he clamped the remaining spears under his armpit. Just as he was about to swing his knife and slash at the Ming army on the opposite side, a musket came out of the gap in the Ming army, and with a loud bang, the muzzle of the black hole came out of flames towards him.
