"Kill!"

"Don't stop!" Seeing a large number of Qing troops rushing up desperately, Zhang Wenliang was full of excitement, and then roared wildly. These Qing troops probably received Kangxi's death order, and it seems that they will not give up if they die or not take Tianjin City. At this time, Zhang Wenliang himself was really anxious, and he felt that all the hair on his body stood up.

This group of Qing troops is crazy, and Min Baxi, who leads the army, is also crazy. The Qing army all poured up, obviously to take down the city of Tianjin in one go. Min Baxi deployed so many troops at the beginning, and launched an attack without his life, of course, the Mawei army could not hesitate in the slightest. Throw all your belongings out. In this battle, either you die or I live!

"Pass the order, grenade ready!" Zhang Wenliang commanded loudly.

"Grenades ready!"

"Throw!" When the Qing army rushed to a distance of more than 30 meters, the soldiers of the second division at the head of the city began to ignite the grenades in their hands and threw them out, and the soldiers stood at the head of the city, condescendingly, and threw the grenades out at a distance of 40 meters.

"Boom Boom"

"Boom Boom"

"Boom Boom"

The fierce gunfire could not hide the sound of more than 100 grenade explosions, but the sound of more than 100 grenade explosions suppressed the sound of rifle gunfire.

"Mom! What is it! ”

"Help, Erhu, pull me. My retreat! ”

"Little Sanzi. Little Sanzi! ”

In the area covered by grenades. Suddenly, a clearing appeared, and a piece of Qing soldiers fell on this clearing. These explosions brought the Qing army's offensive to a halt, and some of the wounded let out various shouts, but in an instant, the follow-up large force continued to rush forward.

"It's okay to cool down the barrel! Start reloading and firing! If you don't fire at this time, when will it take? At this time, the Qing army had already rushed to the city wall, and even the two rushing cars used to hit the door came to the city gate under the cover of the Qing army. Half of the Qing troops who originally carried the ladder fell, but after they fell, the other Qing troops continued to carry the ladder and continued to move forward, which can be seen that they are not afraid of death! In fact. When you get to the battlefield, you will be involuntarily, it's not that you can retreat if you want to, there is danger ahead, but if you win, you will succeed. But now if you want to die and retreat, the overseers behind you are not decorations, and those guys will shoot the retreating deserters to death mercilessly.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

The cannons at the head of the city were decisively loaded with grapeshotfire, and at this time, in the face of siege, no solid bullets could be used, and only this grapeshotfire could produce the greatest damage. Sixty cannons emitted dense grape shells, which continued to fall in the middle of the Qing army. Marbles were splashing everywhere. The Qing army continued to fall. However, the number of Qing troops. There were still too many, and the grape bombs fell, as if something had fallen into the water, and it was just an insignificant ripple. The water behind quickly dispersed the ripples.

"Quick!"

"Faster!"

"The brethren will have to wait to go up to the tower, as long as we go up, we will be victorious!"

"The North Korean army is also a little sharper in firearms, and the melee combat is all waste, kill!" The Qing army in the team continued to change the law to boost morale, stimulate the courage of the soldiers, and continue to rush up violently.

Tianjin City, Anxi Gate.

There is also a constant upsurge of people here, and the sound of gunfire is constant. White smoke from rifle and cannon fire enveloped the castle. Similarly, in the open space outside the city gate, the attacking Korean army was also constantly bending their bows and shooting arrows, but their archers were not numerous, and they were only used to suppress the battlefield of prayer. However, they were completely wrong, and the rifles of the Mawei Army were completely superior to the bows and arrows in all aspects, so these Korean archers became the priority targets of the Mawei soldiers at the head of the city.

This group of siege troops dominated by the Korean army, supplemented by the Qing army, can be clearly distinguished from the banners and armor. Under the supervision of the Qing troops behind, they continued to rush in the direction of the city wall. According to Minbassi's attack plan, all the attacking troops were rushed up, leaving no reserves. The same was true of Simon's attack, with an attacking force of more than 5,000 men completely overpowered. Looking out from the city, it was also a black head.

However, compared with the Qing army at Gongbeimen, the enterprising spirit of the Korean army at Ximen was obviously inferior to that of the Qing army. Although the difference in numbers between them was not very large, they lacked the power of silence and indomitability. After all, they belong to the guest army, and it's good to be able to help you come to the battle, and this siege is the most casualty in a battle, so it's better to take it easy! After being bombarded twice by the artillery from this side, these North Korean soldiers hesitated about a hundred and fifty meters from the city gate. As a result, he was naturally beaten in vain and kept falling.

Under the guns of the Mawei Army, the North Korean army attacked slowly. The slower their attack speed, the more effective the horsetails' guns will be. At great distances, horsetail rifles were able to shoot them, not to mention artillery at a longer range. The Fourth Division was stationed on the side of Anximen, and the number of artillery pieces was slightly smaller, only thirty, and the guns were not operated by army gunners, who were temporarily transferred from naval warships.

Compared with the fourth division of Anximen, their pressure was obviously much easier than that of Gongbeimen. The commander of the Qing army who supervised the battle here was the Shengjing general Wai Nei, who supervised the battle here at Anximen, but it did not have much effect. The Qing army around him constantly threatened the North Korean army to come forward. If anyone tried to retreat from the front, they were immediately shot by the Qing archers. However, the offensive of the North Korean army, in the eyes of the Japanese people, was obviously far from sufficient. The North Korean army was killed a lot, but there was still a long way to go from the city wall.

Over here. He could also clearly feel the sound of gunfire on the side of the Gongbei Gate. But it's unprecedentedly intense. The rumbling sound is endless. The Gongbei Gate of the entire Tianjin City seems to be boiling. It sounded like dozens or even hundreds of cannons, roaring without a break. Wa Nei felt that if they wanted to break through Tianjin City, it was estimated that there would be a lot of simple things.

"Call them on!"

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the person in the back! ”

Seeing that the Korean army in front of him showed signs of retreating again, Ugnai shouted angrily.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

The Qing army supervising the team behind kept releasing arrows. Coerce those North Korean troops to move on. This means that the North Korean commander Kim Wanhong is not in the West Gate, otherwise he would not know what contradictions would arise when he saw Unei commanding his army like this.

The total number of North Korean troops here was only 5,000 people, and they had no choice but to continue to move forward. At this time, the North Korean army, one by one, regretted it to death. The stubborn counterattack of the Mawei Army in Tianjin City has made these North Korean troops regret it. I knew that I would encounter such a strong opponent when I ran to the Qing Kingdom, not only did I not get any benefits. Instead, he took the lives of so many soldiers. If they had known that this was the case, they would have said that they would not have come. Right now. Moving forward is death, retreating is death, there is no way to live at all!

With the efforts of the Qing army's warlords, the Korean army in front finally approached the city wall a little more. Although the men in front of him were quickly defeated again, Unet saw hope. However, at this moment, a fast horse hurried in front of the U Nei, and shouted in a hurry and panic: "Report to the general, Lord Tutong has ordered the withdrawal of troops!" The Gongbei Gate has been evacuated, you better evacuate quickly! ”

This Min Baxi is the commander, and he is still the title of the deputy commander of Manchuria in the Yellow Banner, and it stands to reason that the two are at the same level, but he is in Shengjing all the year round and does not know the situation here, so this time he is the deputy, and at this time Min Baxi's military order arrived, and he had to carry it out.

Unei turned his head and saw that it was Piten, the leader of the guards beside Minbassi. At this time, Pi Teng was less majestic than before, and his face was pale and his movements were flustered. When he saw his appearance and asked him to withdraw his troops, he was immediately furious and shouted angrily: "Bastard! The good army has already leaned against the city wall, how can it be said that it will withdraw? ”

Piten didn't dare to resist when he saw that he was angry, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "General Yu, the attack on Gongbeimen did not go well, and the troops suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat. Counting the casualties, there are almost no 6,000 soldiers and horses left! ”

The Japanese finally reacted, and it seems that the casualties over there were really too large before they withdrew. "What's going on? How many casualties have been killed, and Min Du has a lot of people who retreat in the face of difficulties? ”

Piten said in frustration and fear: "Dead, all dead, up a total of 6,000 people, the front army will all die." The 3,000 in the rear were also bombarded by the later artillery, and even the 2,000 Korean troops who followed the attack on the side were all wiped out, and the Korean General Kim Man-hong was angry! ”

Uchi suddenly felt the darkness in front of him, and his steps were swaying and he almost didn't stand firm. It's only been a long time, and the number of casualties has already exceeded one-tenth of the total number of soldiers and horses. It has been a very serious matter for the army to have more than 10% casualties, and if you look at their side, it seems that the battle situation is also very unfavorable. But at this time, it was not said that they would be withdrawn, and the Korean army also rushed to the front of the city wall and tasted a dozen killers of the Mawei army - grenades!

"Boom, boom!"

"Boom, boom!"

"Boom, boom!"

A series of violent explosions were even more powerful than the three cannons on the head of the city, and these grenades exploded in batches and took the lives of the North Korean soldiers. How did these sticks know that the Mawei Army still has such powerful weapons, and they were all dumbfounded, and they were already not highly motivated, and they couldn't care about the Qing Army's supervising team behind them, so they turned around and ran away one by one, and the battlefield showed an overall trend of retreat. They turned around and fled, but the rifles on the horsetail side still didn't stop, and the bullets kept chasing the back of the rout's butts. The 30 cannons at the head of the city did not miss this opportunity to beat the water dogs, and after the first shot, they continued to extend the muzzles, which was bound to leave some more corpses of the Korean soldiers.

Oh my God, how can this be? U Neijian almost couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, and they finally attacked the city with such a result, which was really unacceptable to anyone. The North Korean army on his side retreated without his orders. He is also a person who has led troops for many years, and he knows that it is not good when he looks at this form on the battlefield. This is not a retreat, it is simply a retreat, and this also has to prevent the Mawei Army from rushing out of the city to chase and kill.

"The left pacesetters and horses obey the order, cover the retreat of the Korean army left and right, and prevent the rebels in the city from going out of the city to pursue!" At this time, the Japanese could only make their last efforts, and it seemed that half of the 5,000 Korean troops had been removed. I just heard what Pitten said, the North Korean army at Gongbei Gate also lost 2,000 people, and there were more than 2,000 less here again, I am afraid that the North Korean general Jin Wanhong will be completely mad, and he will be in trouble if he leads the troops to return to North Korea in a fit of anger.

In the continuous retreat, the artillery fire of the Mawei Army still brought a lot of damage to the Qing army, and the backward Qing army, including the Korean army, continued to fall.

"Pass my order, it's time for General Bing to go out and let him take the cavalry troops out of the city to pursue, but don't go deep, and withdraw immediately when he encounters a large army of the Qing army!" Jin Yinghu saw that these Qing troops and the Korean army in front of him were really retreating, and immediately ordered. The Fourth Division of their army is indeed a pure army division, not an authentic cavalry, and the soldiers and horses under the command of Bing Guangyan, the deputy chief soldier of Yuantian, have a cavalry unit, although some cavalry were killed before, but there are more than 400 under Bing Guangyan's own command and the rest of the collection. There was no shortage of horses in Tianjin, and Jin Yinghu decisively incorporated this cavalry with the idea that the cavalry could help at a critical moment. All the officers of the Qing army, from the lowest-ranking additional foreign commissioners to Bing Guangyan's own family members, were still under the control of the Mawei Army, and Jin Yinghu was not worried that these people would rebel again.

"Brothers, everyone has also seen that the horsetail army is brilliant, and the soldiers and horses outside have been beaten and retreated before they even come up to the city. The Qing Dynasty is finished, the change of dynasty is in the present dynasty, we have just surrendered, and the opportunity to make contributions is in front of us, we also want to have a wife and a son, kill! "Originally, this pursuit task didn't require Bing Guangyan to go out by himself, just let his subordinates rush up. But he still won't let go of this opportunity, he also saw the appearance of the army attacking the city outside the Anxi Gate just now, it looks like the dense human heads are quite scary, but they can't withstand the repeated bombardment of the Mawei Army's cannons, rifles and grenades, and soon more than half of the casualties were killed and wounded, and this time it became a collective retreat, how can you let go of such an opportunity to pick up battle merits!
