After discovering that the Ming army could not do anything about them, the Han soldiers under the city gate became excited, spitting, and pushed the shield cart to the city gate with extra force.

With a bang, the two shield carts slammed into the city gate, shaking the gate slightly, falling a cloud of dust, and the solid stones behind the door also shook, and several stones rolled to the side.

"One, two, three!"

The Han soldiers shouted loudly, and once again pushed the shield cart and slammed it towards the city gate.

The Han soldiers in the distance saw that they were hitting the city gate, and the Ming army at the head of the city had no way to take the shield car, and they couldn't help but regain their morale, and every time the shield car hit the city gate, they all let out cheers, waiting for the moment when the city gate was knocked open.

At the head of the city, the Ming army stared at those shield carts, and there was no way at all, they put their guns down in vain, shooting arrows, and they were so anxious that they all changed color.

No matter how strong this city gate is, no matter how solid the back is blocked, it can't help the Jin army to keep bumping, even if it is not knocked open, as long as it is knocked out of the big hole, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"General, you have to think of a way quickly, otherwise this city gate will be smashed open by them sooner or later!"

As soon as Cao Bianjiao bit his teeth, he wanted to take some brothers who were not afraid of death to hang from the rope. Shi Dayong grabbed him and ran to the city gate building.

looked down at the city, waved at the dozens of young men on the tower of the city who were holding the "10,000 enemies" and shouted: "Throw it down, throw it down!" ”

Hearing Shi Dayong's order, those young men were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly threw the "10,000 enemies" in their hands to the city.

Dozens of large quilts fell on the top of his head, and his vision was suddenly black, and the golden soldiers under the leather shield were a little panicked, not knowing what was happening in the road.

"Give me the arrows!"

Shi Dayong couldn't help but snatch the bow and arrow from a soldier, tore off the cloth on the banner casually, wrapped it in the arrow, dipped it in some boiling oil, lit it with a torch, and then shot at the "ten thousand enemies" who were thrown on the shield cart.

The "10,000 enemies" inside were shot by rockets and burst into flames, erupting incessantly.

The flames not only spewed upwards, but also downwards, and the scorching flames made the golden soldiers scream and hurriedly throw the quilts off their bodies.

But dozens of large quilts were thrown down at the same time, and no matter how fast the action was, it was impossible to shake them off, not to mention that those quilts erupted with flames, and the cotton wool inside was burned and emitted black smoke, which made the already not wide city gate passage a black smoke, choking people.

It was fire and smoke, and the Han soldiers couldn't stand it anymore and retreated one after another.

But there was a shout from the top of the city: "Pour the oil on me!" ”

Suddenly, the two large pots of boiling oil were poured into the city without leaving any of them, and the soldiers who poured the oil were a little unbearable.

After the boiling oil was poured down, half of it fell on those shield carts, and half of it fell on the golden soldiers who were burned by the "ten thousand enemies".

The hot oil of the boiling soup is stained on people's skin, and almost instantaneously makes a "whoosh" splashing sound, how can people stand it.

A few Jin soldiers were even drenched by the hot oil, and all of a sudden the skin of the whole head was burned, the eyes, ears, and nose were burned, and the braids were also burned and yellowed, straight and hard, and very brittle.

The Jin soldiers, who spoke the various dialects of the Han people in Guannai, were miserable, hundreds of people were in a mess there, some wanted to run forward, some wanted to retreat, and some wanted to run in both directions, and a large number of people were scurrying around like headless flies.

The "ten thousand enemies" were also thrown from this person to that person, and that person was thrown to the side, but he didn't notice that he threw it on his own people.

What is even more odious is that those "ten thousand enemies" are just thrown on the ground and stepped on it hard, but they can't stop stepping on it, but the fire is getting bigger and bigger.

When the boiling oil fell down, although the heads of the golden soldiers hiding under the shield car were not burned, the small buttocks exposed outside were poured right at once, and the hot air was bubbling out, and the cloth was scalded and deformed, tangled there, wrinkled and brittle. The buttocks that were poured were even more miserable, the skin was all scalded off, the red and tender meat was exposed, and the hot oil was fried in the meat and blood, which hurt my heart!

"Torch Hands are here!"

Seeing that the Jin soldiers were in chaos, Shi Dayong hurriedly shouted at the dozens of gunners on the left and right, and pointed down fiercely and shouted: "Shoot me!" ”

Hearing the shout, those gunners hurriedly rushed over with firearms, and pointed to the city gate tower, "bang" There was a bang, and more than 20 golden soldiers were hit by the guns and fell to the ground. Seeing this, dozens of Ming soldiers armed with crossbow arrows also surrounded them, gathered together and fired their crossbow arrows at the city in a dense manner.

The Jin army, who was in charge of covering the shield car, saw that the Ming army was powerful, and the guerrillas under his command hurriedly shouted: "Shoot, shoot them quickly!" ”

The Han soldiers who had recovered their lives from the repeated attacks of the "Ten Thousand Enemies" and boiling oil were also in a hurry, and shot their bows and arrows towards the battlements with red eyes.

There are dozens of veteran archers in it, and their archery is very accurate, and after a little aim, they let go. The sound of bowstrings sounded, and dozens of sharp arrows shot towards the dozen battlements on the tower of the city gate.

The gunner, who was busy loading the medicine, was suddenly shot more than a dozen, and some of them fell to the city with a scream.

The crossbowmen and young men were also shot seven or eight, some seriously or lightly wounded, and gritted their teeth and endured being carried down the city in a hurry by their companions.

There were screams on and off the city, and dozens of golden soldiers were hit. The Ming army, which had suffered a loss, became smarter, no longer exposed the battlements, and squatted on the spot after the fight, and the Jin soldiers could not shoot them. When the medicine is loaded, he lifts the gun up and squats when it is fired. is very cunning, so angry that the Jin army archers under the city scolded her mother.

A regiment of soldiers training hands and feet slower, after the fight, did not squat down for the first time, was shot by an arrow by a superb archery soldier under the city, hearing the sound of breaking the sky, he was in a hurry, hurriedly to the side, but it was a step too slow, the sharp arrow hit his right eye, the whole person took a few steps back, then stopped. Raised his hand and touched it, and pulled it hard, and immediately blood flowed all over his face. When I saw that the arrow was nailed to my right eyeball, my face changed at that time, and the person went crazy, waving the arrow nailed to his eyeball, and ran around the city gate building.

A few young men saw that he was mad, and hurried to hold him down, but before they could rush forward, an arrow came out of nowhere and flew towards his neck. People, after holding up for more than ten seconds, they lost their breath.

When the young men saw the death of this person, they were so shocked that they didn't dare to move, or Cao Bianjiao found that there were a few young people stupidly surrounding a corpse and did not move, so he was so anxious that he stepped forward and yelled at them, "It's all him. Mother wants to find death, don't find a place to hide! Only then did the young men come to their senses, and they crawled to find a place to hide from the arrows.

Downstairs in the city, there is now thick smoke choking, dozens of large quilts are burning there, and there is boiling oil to help burn, and the smoke that comes out smokes all the doorways. The golden soldiers and shield bearers in those doorways really couldn't stand it, they choked their lungs with every breath, their eyes couldn't open for a long time, and they saw that the covering archers had already run out, and they ran out crying wolf. In a moment, apart from more than a hundred corpses, there was not a single living person under the city gates.

Li Guoheng, the deputy general of the Jin army, saw that he could not climb the city or knock on the door, but he killed and injured so many people, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet there, and he could not get the order to withdraw the troops for a long time, so he could only force the Han army soldiers to attack again. But where did those soldiers dare to go to the city again, and the officers did not want to send them to death again, pushing each other, and no one was willing to move.

Li Guoheng was helpless, and he didn't dare to force it, otherwise these soldiers would rise up against the water, kill themselves before the battle and surrender to the Ming army in the city, which would really be bad for eighteen lifetimes. Fortunately, although these soldiers did not dare to attack the city again, no one dared to run back, so they also gave an account to the chief soldier.

After sending his own soldiers to hurry up and ask the chief soldier Li to order the withdrawal of the troops, Li Guoheng ordered the remaining hundreds of archers to shoot at the head of the city without stopping, picking up the Ming army at the battlement, and venting the grievances and anger in his stomach.

The distance was too close, there were few guns, and the artillery battle was used up, and Shi Dayong had no effective means to eliminate the remnants of the Jin army for a while. The only order could be sent down, and the gunners were told to continue firing, and the others hid behind the arrow board so as not to be hit by the arrows of the golden soldiers.

The battle situation has been obvious, the Jin army under the city has been unable to attack the city, but the Ming army in the city does not dare to go out of the city, and the two sides have reached a stalemate for a while.

More than 100 Ming army gunners and more than 500 Jin army archers shot at each other in this way.

In the confrontation shot, one of Zuo Liangyu's subordinates was unfortunately hit by an arrow in the face and fell to the ground. More than a dozen gunners were also hit by arrows, but they were not critical, but they could not shoot again, and were carried down by the young men.

Overall, the Ming army's guns had the upper hand, because they were condescending and had the city walls to cover them, while the Jin army had nothing to cover them, and they shot at the city, which greatly reduced their lethality.

On average, for one Ming army gunner, three Jin army archers were hit by guns.

After shooting, both sides of the Ming and Jin sides consciously reduced the number of shots, and slowly, the sound of guns in the city quieted down, and the Jin army under the city stopped shooting arrows.

The Ming army hiding behind the city bricks boldly showed their heads and looked down, and the Jin army also looked at them fixedly, as if there was a tacit understanding, and the enemy and us kept peace within a hundred paces of the city.

Under the short silence, the Ming army at the head of the city suddenly burst into cheers, "Hold it, hold it, let's hold it!" ”

The soldiers and the young men hugged each other and wept, jumping there excitedly. Qiu Hejia and Chen Ang, who were anxiously waiting for the battle situation behind the city, heard the cheers on the city, and they looked at each other in unison, with joyful smiles on their faces.

Thousands of young men and defenders were also cheering in ecstasy, with the spread of cheers, the whole city of Jinzhou was boiling, the officials of the yamen banged the gong one by one to announce the good news to the people, the people who were anxious and waiting for their fate suddenly became excited, they hugged their relatives in the house and laughed and cried excitedly

"Let's go, let's go to the city, Benfu wants to reward the soldiers!"

The excited Qiu Hejia took Chen Ang's hand and was about to climb to the top of the city, but saw a big flag embroidered with a golden dragon suddenly rise on the head of the city.
