Chapter 150: The Battle of Jinzhou (11)

Updated: 2012-12-09

Without an order to retreat, the Jin army could only continue to attack the city, but the momentum was obviously inferior to Fang Cai. Just read the novel~]

In the city, the boiling oil in the cauldron was already hot, and seeing that the Jin army had gathered again, Cao Bianjiao hurriedly waved his hand at the young men who were boiling oil.

Immediately, the six young men lifted the cauldron with iron rods, slowly carried it to the edge of the battlement, and then lifted it fiercely and fell down to the city.

Six cauldrons fell at the same time, boiling hot oil poured down like a waterfall, and a terrible cry rang out from the city. The golden soldiers who were poured on their heads with hot oil were scalded one by one, they were not like those iron heads, who were wearing two or three layers of iron armor one by one, but they wore a simple cotton armor, where could the thin cotton armor withstand the hot oil!

The cotton armor was also scalded to the point of "snorting" and smoking, and those Han soldiers without armor were even more miserable, a face was burned in an instant, as if it was cooked, red fluttering, tender... The hands were also full of bubbles, and pieces of red skin were separated from the flesh, and they were stacked there piece by piece.

The Iron Heads were better, but they were frightened by the burned companions, and no matter how brave they were, they couldn't help but show hesitation on their faces when they saw this horrible scene.

On the city wall, the Ming army smashed down the wood from time to time, and stones of different sizes were also smashed here and there, causing great casualties to the golden soldiers who landed in the city, and even more fearing the golden soldiers who were already demoralized.

The Jin army began to cringe, they no longer dared to climb boldly, nor did they dare to gather under the city hard, at first it was just a group of Han soldiers retreating, and then the Jin soldiers were also retreating.

Seeing this, Azig was furious, raised his hand, and immediately six hundred recruits waved their bows and arrows at those retreating companions.

"Those who retreat will be killed!"

"Go back! Get back! ”

Azig drew his sword in his hand, roared loudly, and the tooth swingers began to press forward silently, looking at those sharp arrows, listening to the roar of the banner master, the golden soldiers had no choice but to muster up their courage again, picked up the ladder from the ground, and turned back to lean on the city wall again.

"Up!"

Under the order and coercion of the Shideba officers, whether it was the Han soldiers or the Jin soldiers, or whether you were the dead soldier who was trapped in the city, they were all shouted to climb the ladder.

But before they could climb halfway, the Ming army in the city poured the hot oil again, and it was so hot that the golden soldiers on the ladder cried wolf and fell down.

When the golden soldiers on the other ladders on the side saw it, they were all so frightened that they wanted to climb down, but their feet were full of people, and they couldn't get down.

Looking at the battlement with great fear, his heart was in his throat, the sky was pitiful, he waited for a while, but he didn't see the Ming army pouring hot oil down at the head of the city!

"They're oiled, they're oiled!"

The golden soldiers cheered as if they had escaped death, there was no oil in the city, there was no oil in the city!

It's not that there is no oil in the city, but it's not hot, and it can't burn people if they fall.

The golden soldiers under the city were greatly inspired, and more than a hundred Shengnuzhen who were pioneers climbed up from more than a dozen ladders. Those ladders were full of oil, and when I stepped on them, I slipped them straight up, and I used my hands and feet at the same time, so that I could barely stand firm.

"Up, on!"

Niu Lu and Shi Deba couldn't wait to roar, one just climbed up, and the other pushed up, lest if they were not happy, the Ming army would pour oil again.

But when the golden soldiers at the top of the ladder were very close to the battlement again, the Ming army's fire guns rang out again, and there was a burst of gunsmoke, and more than a dozen golden soldiers fell from the ladder screaming. But there were also some iron heads who were not injured, but a spirit, and quickly climbed up again.

Stones, wooden blocks, and even city bricks, everything that could kill the city was smashed down by the Ming army.

Under the city, the arrows of the Jin army also kept shooting towards the city, because the Jin army had too many arrows, the Ming army could only passively defend, and gradually, the Ming army at some battlements became less and less.

There are more than 400 people under the white flag Niu Lu De Clan, but before they get close to the city wall, there are more than 100 casualties in the army, all of whom died under the artillery fire of the Ming army at the head of the city.

As Niu Lu, Deklee's armor has an extra layer than the iron head, the innermost layer of chain mail, then a layer of iron armor, and then a layer of iron-inlaid cotton armor. Under the protection of these three layers of armor, the Ming army's firearms and bows and arrows were helpless. However, the armor that weighed dozens of pounds on his body also made Dekry a little out of breath, and he was also sweating, as if he was in a stuffy box, which was very uncomfortable.

Now Dioclery didn't want to make any great achievements, but only hoped to take the city as soon as possible, so as to end everything in front of him.

He's had enough of the nightmarish battle.

The sky lived up to his wishes, and under the encouragement of Deklee's leading soldiers, the golden soldiers with the white flag shot the Ming army in the city, and there were actually a few golden soldiers on the ladder who were about to climb to the top of the city.

…………

There were heavy casualties in the front, and in the back, Erke and other generals couldn't hold their breath, especially after seeing that there were not many of the remaining red flag soldiers, Erke was so anxious that he grabbed Azig's hand and persuaded hard: "Master, this city can't be attacked again, and if it is attacked again, it will all be gone!" Master, withdraw it! ”

Ah Shan, Hu Li and the others didn't want to fight anymore, and looked at Azig with a helpless expression.

Not only did the generals not want to attack any more, but even the ordinary Jin soldiers didn't want to stay under this Jinzhou city for another second. The huge casualties have exceeded their psychological expectations, if they can't break through and continue to fight like this, I am afraid that it will not be long before they put a knife on their necks, and the Jin army will collapse by itself.

Jinzhou, which was trapped by the remnants of the army, actually claimed that it had lost so many people, was the Ming army in this city really only two or three thousand old, weak, sick and disabled?

The tenacious combat effectiveness shown by the defenders had already made Azig doubt the real situation of the Ming army in the city, and Erke's hard persuasion made him hesitate, but after finding that there were several ladders with a white flag about to attack, he immediately stopped hesitating, pointed his knife there, and shouted: "Take it, take it!" ”

Looking at Azig's long knife, Erke and the others also froze, only to see three ladders set up in one place, and their own warriors were constantly climbing up to the top of the city from there.

Who is Niu Lu Dekry, who was the first to climb the city and not the white flag?!

…………

"Jiannu is up, Jiannu is up!"

The first to notice that there were golden soldiers climbing up the battlement were a few young men, they shouted in fear, and no one had the courage to rush forward.

As soon as Derek climbed to the top of the city, he used a round shield to protect himself from the spears of the Ming army next to the battlement, and when he found that there were no Ming troops near the battlement, he became ecstatic, and brandished his long knife to kill the Ming army at the next battlement, and made a strange cry in his mouth while rushing.

Unexpectedly, a Ming general suddenly rushed from behind the battlement, and the Ming general carried a spear in one hand, and the roar from his mouth was louder than Derek's, and Dekri was stunned when he heard it, and subconsciously waved his knife to cut. But the general was faster than he was, and the spear was already coming at his chest.

Delhikou held a shield in his left hand and three layers of armor on his body, and when he saw that Na Ming was slashing at his chest, he was not afraid at all, and he smiled fiercely and was about to slash the knife at Na Ming's neck.

Before the knife could be raised, his body was hit hard, and he flew backwards with the shield, and fell to the ground with a "plop", which made him dizzy. Before I could understand what was going on, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and at the same time, several knives slashed at the neck...

When his head rolled off, his eyes were still wide open, and he really couldn't blink his eyes.

…………

Cao Bianjiao's timely arrival resolved the crisis, and the Jin soldiers who came up along the ladder could not defeat him at all, and then Wang An's battalion arrived and blocked the gap in the city wall in time, so that the Jin army could no longer take advantage of the chaos to climb to the top of the city.

In the clairvoyant mirror, Huang Taiji could see it clearly, although the people in the golden dragon banner on the city gate tower were angry, but he couldn't help but force himself to calm down.

"Second brother, call the twelfth brother back."
