Chapter 149: The Battle of Jinzhou (10)

Updated: 2012-12-08

The battle became more and more intense, and under the supervision of Azig's personal soldiers, the Jin army and the Han army worked hard, and every second, countless lives were lost in the city and under the city. Just read the novel)

Pounding wood and stones kept falling from the city, and under the city walls, the corpses accumulated more and more.

Both sides were red-eyed, even those Han soldiers were also red-eyed, and they climbed up the ladder desperately.

"Ten thousand enemies" continued to be thrown from the city, sparks and smoke everywhere, with the sound of guns and cannons, the city head seemed to be the New Year.

The attack on the city gate are all ironclad soldiers, the Jin army also called these heavy-armored dead soldiers "iron heads", these iron leaders are not afraid of death of the birth of the real women, they rushed to the city gate, except for a few crashed into the city gate, the others actually directly hit the city wall, back and forth several times, there was a big pit on the city wall.

There are more and more pits in the city wall, and the Ming army in the city has learned to use boiling oil and "ten thousand enemies" to attack them just now, but they can't do anything with these "iron heads" wearing several layers of heavy armor, they are not afraid of boiling oil and burning at all, except for a dozen or so iron heads who were burned, the other iron heads didn't even hide.

However, the grass on the ground was scalded yellow, and the rocket was fired, and it immediately burned, but the fire was limited and could not threaten those iron soldiers.

In addition to the hundreds of iron chiefs who kept hitting the city gate and the city wall, the rest of the iron heads took out the shovels hidden in the shield cart and dug at the root of the city wall, intending to hollow out the city wall, and then bury gunpowder to blow the city wall down.

There are more than 200 iron leaders attacking the dead corners of the city wall, and the Ming army on the city can't see them at all except poking their heads out to look, but the archers of the Jin army who are pressing the formation are very vicious, and the Ming army who picks up those probes shoots. After being shot dead more than a dozen in a row, the Ming army no longer dared to poke their heads out to check the golden soldiers on those dead corners.

"If it doesn't go on like this, sooner or later this city will be hollowed out by them!"

Shi Dayong was so anxious that he turned straight, and saw a few long big stepping stones not far away, thinking about it, he shouted, and led more than a dozen personal soldiers to carry the long big stepping stones.

The long stepping stone was not only long, but also heavier, one piece weighed seven or eight hundred catties, and a dozen or so big men had great difficulty carrying it. More than a dozen young men rushed to help, and everyone worked together to slowly lift the long stepping stone to the side of the city wall, let out a shout, raised it above their heads, and then smashed it towards the golden soldiers below.

The boulder fell from the sky, and there was a "plop" sound, and before the iron head could react, he was smashed squarely.

Under the long stone, I don't know how many people were smashed, but the four sides were full of flesh and blood, the head, hands and feet were exposed, and blood and white sweat poured out from under the stones, which was very disgusting.

One trick worked, Shi Dayong hurriedly asked the soldiers to move another piece, this time to the south a little, and there were dozens of iron heads who were digging the roots of the wall below.

There was a tired iron man who looked up and looked up, and suddenly lost color, and he screamed, and those iron heads hurriedly stopped their hands and looked up together, and before they could blink, a large stone slab had already smashed down.

Except for the seven or eight who ran fast, the other iron heads were all smashed, and like the previous ones, they were smashed to pieces, and they died no more.

The big stone slabs smashed down on the top of the city frightened the iron leaders who dug into the corners of the wall no longer dared to stay there, and they all screamed and retreated.

At this time, there was a doubly passionate drum sound in the big array in the distance, but it was Huang Taiji who saw the improvement of the siege in the clairvoyant mirror, and ordered the drums to be beaten for the siege soldiers.

From time to time, there was a sound of guns on the battlements at the head of the city, but not only guns but also arrows were shot down.

Under the city, the arrows of the Jin army also rained down on the city. Some of the golden soldiers who shot arrows well were even able to shoot arrows through the small holes under the battlements, causing some damage to the Ming soldiers hiding behind.

There was a veteran soldier in the left battalion who was afraid that the arrow board full of arrows on the side was affecting his movement, and pushed it a little to the north, and before he could turn around, six or seven sharp arrows immediately shot at him, and he was hit by an arrow on his left cheek, right chest, and neck, and planted backwards with a scream.

The gunners next to them saw it, which one dared to move the arrow board, and shrank there carefully one by one, and after loading the medicine, they had to look around again to make sure that there was no danger after rising, so they stood up at once, and did not look at it, facing the city is a gun, and then quickly shrunk down again. The speed is so fast that even the archers of the Jin Army are difficult to catch. Later, some archers who were good at archery only opened their bows and pulled the strings, but did not shoot, but stared at the battlements, and did not shoot when the Ming army was rising. In this way, more than a dozen unlucky Ming army gunners were shot. But it was also so frightened that the Ming army didn't dare to raise their heads, and with it, the sound of fire guns on the city became more and more thin.

Under the city gate, the iron head of the Jin army is still there to hit the city gate, there are about more than 100 iron heads in the door hole, the stone slabs of the Ming army can't hit them, and the boiling oil and the "ten thousand enemies" can't do anything about them, so they hit the city gate unscrupulously, and the door posts and stones behind the city gate are loosened, and the Ming army behind the gate is frightened to quickly gather the young people, and they hurriedly go to block it.

The iron chiefs who suffered the loss of the stone slabs learned wisely, they no longer went to dig the city wall, but put arrows on the city, many of these iron heads were hunters in the deep mountains and old forests, and they were born with good archery skills, and shot and killed many Ming soldiers.

The Ming army only had firearms, bows and arrows, and crossbow arrows, and there was no way to take these iron heads wearing two layers of heavy armor, so they could only watch them shoot arrows at the city.

At the critical moment, Cao Ying's sub-command took Shi Hai to rush over with four big poles, the big poles were more than twice as long as the ordinary guns, and the guns were much thicker. Even if it can't break your armor, the powerful impact will also break your bones.

However, this big pole gun has a fatal shortcoming, that is, it is easier to blow up the chamber than the ordinary fire gun, and it often can't open a few guns, and it will blow up the chest, so the Ming army does not dare to use this big pole gun. The Liaodong Army did not have some equipment, only some in the Beijing camp. When Zhang Chun left Beijing, he took all the big poles of the Beijing camp out of the pass, and the battle of Dalinghe played a lot of roles, killing and wounding many gold soldiers. It's a pity that most of them were blown up, and the rest were mostly captured by the Jin army, and some were scattered all over the battlefield, and the Songshan army only had six or seven shots back. Upon inspection, only four rods were available.

There are only four shots, and it is not safe, and it is easy to blow up and injure the guns, so it is useless to be put there by the Ming army. It wasn't until he saw that those Jin Army ironclad soldiers were too powerful that Shi Hai thought of the big pole and hurriedly took someone to carry it.

As soon as it was put on the plane, Shi Hai couldn't wait to roar: "Release!" ”

The gunners were busy lighting the fire, and suddenly they heard a loud "bang, bang, bang", but there were only three sounds, and one of them was dumb and fired!

The gun was strange, and he looked at it, but the gun suddenly rang again, and hit him in front of him with a "bang", blowing up a face that was bloody and fleshy, and the flesh and blood flew away, and the whole face was like a skull, so it was not terrifying. The soldier held his face and screamed, and after a few screams, he swallowed.

This scene only scared the Ming soldiers enough, and the hands of the three big poles were even more trembling, looking at the big poles in their hands with indescribable fear.

The Ming army was frightened, but the iron leader of the Jin army under the city was hit solidly, and there was a scream, and more than a dozen iron leaders were blown backwards, either the armor was torn or the chest was suffocated, like a sledgehammer smashing, and the bones were shattered.

"Put!"

The three big poles were fired again under the worry of the guns, and the screams of the iron heads were heard from the city, and it was roughly estimated that no less than twenty iron heads were killed by the big poles.

Seeing that the firearms of the Ming army were so powerful, the iron leaders did not dare to stay where they were any longer, and instinctively retreated backwards, the farther away from the city, the better.

Several roads leading to the city wall were young men who carried corpses and wounded soldiers back and forth, and several roads were full of blood, and Langzhong under the city could not be cured at all.

As the number of wounded and corpses increased, the people began to become restless and panicked, and looked towards the city in horror from time to time, lest they see Jiannu climbing up, but fortunately, the defenders fought tenaciously, although the casualties were large, Jiannu did not rush up.

Cao Bianjiao's battalion was less than five hundred, and Zuo Liangyu's subordinates were only five or six hundred, Shi Dayong urgently ordered Ge Qing's battalion to go to the city immediately, otherwise, it would be impossible to suppress the Jin army's offensive.

After Ge Qing's battalion went to the city, the Jin army's ascending momentum was once again suppressed, dozens of ladders were destroyed, and morale was a little low.

This city was attacked too badly, and the corpses of the Jin army were piled up under the two or three miles wide city wall, although there were many soldiers who were not inlaid with red flags, as well as those of the Han army, but it was enough to make Azig regret, and he regretted a little that he should not have come to fight Jinzhou, otherwise, how could the casualties be so miserable. I knew that the defenders of Ludao were so tenacious, so they should return to Shenyang.

As the casualties increased, the Ming army in the city could not see the exhaustion, Azig had a bad feeling, he felt that this Jinzhou seemed to be unable to take it, and if he continued to fight, maybe the blood of the red flag would really be drained.

But he boasted about Haikou, and the king of Khan issued a strict order, if he didn't take Jinzhou, he Azig would have to raise his head to see him, so no matter how miserable it was, the order to retreat Azig would never dare to say it. can only force himself to calm down, and constantly send people to urge the Jiala Niulu to strengthen the attack. Seeing that the 500 personal soldiers given by Huang Taiji did not attack the city, but only fired arrows on the city, and the casualties were very small, I don't know whether he wanted Huang Taiji to lose some money, or if there were really no soldiers to send, Azige simply sent Huang Taiji's 500 personal soldiers to attack the city
