Chapter 104: Bloody Battle at the Head of the City
The cloud ladder of friends is only set up at the head of the city, and Zhong Xiancai, the officer of the sentry team, can see clearly from the battlement wall of the battlement, and there are already a few people wearing heavy armor! ”
Immediately, the two auxiliaries lifted the cauldron with iron rods, and lifted it to the height of the battlement, and the iron pot fell hard, and the boiling dung juice in it was immediately poured outward. Like a waterfall pouring down, it glows golden in the sun. The extreme smell was pervasive, and a terrible cry sounded, and the three or four Qing soldiers who were climbing on the ladder, as well as a few unarmored soldiers who were following the wooden ladder under the ladder, they were all poured with boiling dung juice all over their faces, and immediately screamed and fell to the ground, rolling back and forth on the ground, making a howl that did not resemble a human voice.
Those vests holding big shields were useless, and no one was spared from the boiling dung juice that split their heads and covered their faces, and they fell off with their skin and flesh open, and even the cotton armor on their bodies was sneering and smoking, and the iron leaves inside were exposed. As for the unarmored henchmen below who did not have the protection of the shield, they were even worse, their hands and faces were all burned open, and even the white bones inside were exposed.
These people rolled on the ground and screamed, they poured dung on their bodies, and they were badly burned, even if they didn't die on the spot, in such a hot weather. The feces corroded deeply, and the wound was heavily infected and rotten, and there was absolutely no chance of survival.
On these people, there was also the stench of gold juice coming from under the ladder, which made the nearby Qing soldiers vomit when they smelled it.
At this moment alone, six or seven Qing soldiers were seriously injured at this cloud ladder, and there was no possibility of saving them.
Looking at their miserable appearance, with the viciousness of the dead soldiers of the Qing army who were about to enter the city under the city or next to the trenches, they looked at the high city walls, and their faces also showed hesitation and fear.
Not only that, but there are also stones falling down on this section of the city wall. Although the accuracy is not high, it continues to cause casualties to the Qing soldiers who ascend the city, especially those who have no armor or only wear cotton armor, and many people are stoned to death and injured!
Some of the thick stones fell from above, and even the dead soldiers had their armours and shields in their arms, and some of them had their hands and feet broken.
There were constantly screams of Qing soldiers under the city. This small square inch of land is a place of death.
Seeing that the Qing soldiers were stagnant, the Niu Lu Zhangjing, who was commanding on the outside of the trench, was furious, and the trumpeter beside him immediately sounded the drum and urged, and at the same time, the sharp arrows of some white-armored soldiers around him were also shot with bows, not aimed at the city. He led two hundred soldiers and three hundred auxiliaries to capture the city. Unexpectedly, before approaching the castle, there were more than ten casualties in the army, all of whom died under the fire of the Ming army at the head of the city, and several of them were soldiers, and the calf of a white-armored soldier was crushed by the fallen war horse.
On this part of the way to the castle, more than ten Qing soldiers were locked by the Ming army in the city and were killed and wounded.
After approaching the city, the Niu Lu Zhangjing soldiers divided into two routes. On the left side of the city gate, this Niu Lu Zhangjing led more than 150 soldiers and more than 200 auxiliaries to personally command the siege. On the right side of the city gate, one of them led the other, and there were more than 50 horsemen and infantry soldiers of Niu Lu. One hundred auxiliaries led the attack.
The next warriors and archers took cover, and when the followers were filling in the trenches and clearing the trenches, the horses, antlers, and thistles were removed, and there were more than forty casualties in the army on the side of Niu Lu Zhangjing alone. More than a dozen of them were heavily armoured soldiers.
Especially those who have no armor or only wear cotton armor, they not only have to brave the shooting of the Ming army in the city, but when removing the thistle, many of the feet of the unarmored followers are also pierced by the sharp thistle. When carrying those barred horses full of iron thorns. There are also quite a few people who have injured their hands.
It was easy to clear the moat in front of the tribulus terrestris, and after filling a trench of more than ten steps to pass, the Qing soldiers began to take the ladder to the city, here, and by the Ming army on the city to beat the stone and gold juice of the river, and on both sides of the Ming army under the shooting of the dumplings is also a rough estimate of casualties, here, there are nearly 30 Qing casualties, in fact, more than half are heavily armored soldiers. Haven't climbed the walls yet. The casualties are so heavy, how can you not let that Niu Lu Zhangjing beat his chest and cry bitterly?
In the distance from the city wall on the left side of the south gate to the front of the moat, the corpses of the Qing soldiers and the howling wounded were lying all over the place. The deceased all had very large mouths, especially those Qing soldiers who were scalded to death by gold juice and smashed to death by rolling wood and stones, and their bodies looked even more miserable.
Among the wounded and corpses, nearly 30 were soldiers of the Qing army. In addition to the damage caused to them by the rolling wood and stones and gold juice on the city, some people were hit by the fire system, and the two layers of heavy armor they wore on their bodies did not bring them safety, and the fire system of the Ming army in the city could easily break through their double layers of heavy armor and let them die miserably on the ground.
Hearing the officer's order, a group of auxiliaries immediately rushed up and moved some of the horses on the inside of the city wall and placed them on the battlement wall at the place where the ladder was leaned. These repulsors were covered with sharp iron barbs, which were intimidating to look at, and in order to strengthen the blocking and lethal power, the auxiliaries were under the command of the officers. They are all about rejecting horses.
After the auxiliaries set up their horses, they left this section of the wall, their mission here was completed, and the rest of the battle was handed over to the soldiers brothers.
Behind or beside these horses on the city wall, the twenty-five ironclad pikemen of the left sentry were staring at the ladder with their spears raised, and they were divided into five columns, each standing at a wall. Each commander fought with four men.
In the military discussion before Wang Dou and others, the enemy soldiers came to the city, which was a good opportunity to kill and injure them in large numbers. At the same time, you can also train your own sergeant's hand-to-hand combat ability. Only in the struggle for life and death will those recruits of their own grow up quickly!
In order to reduce casualties, Wang Dou stipulated. When encountering most of the Qing soldiers, those who can shoot with fire soldiers will first shoot from a distance with fire commanders, and the rest will be pikemen rushing up to assassinate them.
The left sentry and rear sentry of Shunxiang Fort who fought at the head of the city had a total of 200 fire mirror soldiers, and under the rain of arrows caught off guard by the Qing soldiers in two rounds, some young and strong auxiliary soldiers were connected, and the next confrontation between the city and the city was hit. About thirty people were killed or wounded. The Left Sentinel Team also suffered several casualties, leaving a large area of blood in the area.
At this time, in addition to leaving a corps of fire commanders of Team A to continue shooting at the city on horseback, the remaining fire commanders of the team were also led by their own captains in the team, waiting for opportunities to support the shooting around or behind the pikemen.
The upper part of the wall of Shunxiang Fort is about four meters and a half wide. Even if these rejection horses are placed at the battlement, behind and around the rejection horses. These teams can be accommodated loosely.
In the end, the pikemen and fire commanders of each squad were under the unified command of the first captain, and the sergeants of the five squads were under the unified command of the team officer Zhong Xiancai, beside him. Two of them were armed with round shields, and one was holding a ladder knife. One was armed with a long-bladed broadsword, and they had heard the roar of the Zenda, and they hesitated for a moment. His eyes swept away, but he could see the movement inside the city walls.
There was a look of surprise on their faces, that. The horse armor holding a long-bladed broadsword suddenly jumped on the dead Qing soldier Zhuanda, and the shield in his left hand was pushed violently, and he wanted to push away the few horses in front of him.
The leader of the B squad shouted urgently, "Spearman, back off!" ”
Immediately, several sergeants of the spear corps of the leader of squad B hurriedly drew their guns from Na Zhuanda and retreated.
The leader of Team B shouted, and the spear in his hand stabbed at the Qing soldier's vest with a long blade and a big knife, and the vest net was about to push away the last horse in front of him, and suddenly, the spear was already fiercely stabbed in front of him, and he hurriedly blocked it with a round shield. There was a loud bang of the wave, and the spear was blocked by him.
The strength of this gun is so great, the vest has not yet let go, but the armor commander followed by a heavy stabbing shot, this armor commander is practicing hard every day to sprint a move, the gun is indescribably ruthless and accurate, plus the vest is still trapped in the rejection of the horse, where can he block this gun?
With a scream, the vest was stabbed in the throat by the armor's long gun, and the tip of the spear came out of the throat.
The armor commander drew his spear, and the armor soldier spurted blood from his throat, and his body staggered for a while, and he fell crooked on the horse and died.
Another. The vested soldier with a round shield and a ladder knife in his right hand was a few steps ahead of the battlement wall. Jumped from a place where there was no rejection. In front of him were the pikemen and fire commanders of the C squad of the left sentry team, and he raised the round shield broadsword in his hand. There was a cruel smile on his face, although it was a pair of eleven. But there was no fear on his face.
He roared, and was about to rush up with a big sword and a round shield. There were several loud sounds, and the pungent smell of gunpowder and gunpowder spread, but it was the five fires in the fire team of the C squad that all hit him.
This horse armor soldier was covered with double layers of heavy armor and held a round shield, but it was so close. Ding squad fire lock guide, shoot".
The fire commanders of the two squads had already aimed at the rejection of the horses at the entrance of the two ladders, and when they heard the order, they pulled the board machine on the four or five Qing soldiers who fell at the two rejection places at a distance of a few steps. The sound of the fire mirror was loud, and a few Qing soldiers were heavily armored in two places, and it was inconvenient to move. Gab is trapped. They had no power to resist, and could only scream and be beaten to death.
As they died, the soldiers waved their shields. They also hoped that the armor on their bodies would protect them, but they were all disappointed, the power of the Shunxiang Fort Fire Dysprosy, no matter how thick their shield armor was, without exception, they all watched themselves being killed.
For a time, the two areas of rejection were covered with the corpses of the Qing soldiers full of bloody holes. Blood flowed everywhere, and it looked terrible. Some Qing soldiers who did not die for a while were still screaming loudly.
The next few soldiers risked falling into the city, and jumped down from the battlement wall in surprise, and two of them rushed to the side of Team B. One of them had a big sword with a round shield, and the other had no shield. He carried a heavy long-handled tiger tooth knife in his hand.
"Kill!"
The commander of team B shouted an order, and the five pikemen of team B rushed over, and they divided into two waves to meet the two of them. Two attacked the shield-wielding Qing soldier, and three attacked the Qing soldier with a tiger's tooth knife. A Chang is watching from the sidelines.
Five spears stabbed at the two, and their guns were neat and sharp, and they were all aimed at the throats and hearts of the two of them.
The sergeants of Shunxiang Fort have undergone rigorous training. A group of guns and knives, with the tacit understanding of technical attacks has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, they only practice one move on weekdays, I don't know how many times they have practiced repeatedly, one shot stabbed away, either you die, or I die!
They rushed and stabbed, that kind of fierce momentum, the eyes of the two Qing soldiers showed a look of surprise, the combat effectiveness of these Ming army pikemen. It's more fierce than the family members they have seen next to many Ming army generals! A thought came to their minds, where did these Ming troops come from? The shield in the left hand of the shield-wielding soldier was sharply blocked.
Sun Sanjie estimated that their casualties reached more than 30 people, including more than a dozen soldiers. There were also nearly 20 casualties on their own side, most of whom were fire commanders and young and strong auxiliaries. As the Qing soldiers continued to climb up, the casualties of the pikemen also increased.
Sun Sanjie kept directing the battle back and forth, but at this time, he was standing at the first place on the right side of the city wall, at the horse's face, from the lookout hole of the battlement wall, and through the corner of the battlement, he looked coldly at the Qing soldiers who climbed up from the ladder.
The archers of the Lezi soldiers under the city were obviously exhausted, and they had no time to react to the obvious movements of the soldiers of Shunxiangbao on the horses, and the arrows they shot were also very crooked and weak, and now they did not dare to stand openly outside the shield cart. Instead, they often had to rely on the protection of the shield cart to avoid the Ming armies in the city.
Sun Sanjie had been observing the Pashku of the godson soldiers in the city for a long time, and he was surrounded by a few white-armored soldiers, protected by a shield cart. From time to time, he probed his head into the city, and it could be seen that this person was the commander of the shoe soldiers of the city wall, and if he could be killed, the morale of the army would be greatly boosted, and the thieves would be frightened.
"The Buddha said: Life in the world is like being in the midst of thorns. If the heart does not move, people do not move, and if they do not move, they will not hurt"
Sun, Sanjie stroked the bird in the center of his hand, as a Buddhist, he closed his eyes slightly, and said something in his mouth, hoping that the Buddha would appear and bless himself to kill the enemy.
"If the heart moves, people move recklessly, hurt their bodies and hurt their bones, and then experience all kinds of pain in the world
Suddenly, Sun Sanjie opened the hanging door, raised the hammer and shot outward, and with a snap, the fire flared.
