In the distance, the flag of the Jianzhou main formation waved, the drums sounded, and several teams could be seen rushing forward, trying to intercept this team outside the city and strangle, since those people in Dongjiang Town came by boat, the battle situation began to stalemate, they fought all the way from Jianzhou to Guangning, and they had never seen such a difficult Ming army.

The distance between the two sides is very far, and there are shield vehicles and other barriers, it is not easy to rush over, taking advantage of this opportunity, the nearly thousand Ming army retreated back into the city, and the Jianzhou Jurchens did not go to ponder the city gate, they knew that there were three fortifications in the city gate hole, which would be filled at any time, and there was no difference between hitting that side and attacking the city wall.

"If there are dozens more sets of such armor, we still have a chance of winning!" Zhang Pan said with emotion at the head of the city, he was also born in Dongjiang Town, so he naturally knew the foundation and playing style of Dongjiang Town, he knew that this armor was not from Dongjiang Town, and this style of play was not from Dongjiang Town.

But when he said this, there was no excitement on Zhang Pan's face, and there was no joy on the faces of others, even on the faces of those who returned to the city, they once again thwarted the offensive of the Jianzhou Jurchens, which was also getting more and more difficult, just now a person was shot in the leg and was dragged back to the city directly, and the armor was not invulnerable.

Now everyone knows one thing, their time is running out, and it is difficult to say how many times they can fight back like this, so far, the offensive of the Jianzhou Jurchens is constantly intensifying, but it has never moved the real chapter, and it is still consuming the Han prisoners and the newly attached Han army.

"It depends on when the ship comes back." Someone muttered something in a muffled voice, but no one answered.

After the fierce battle, he didn't have much to breathe, but he heard the drum beating of the Jianzhou Jurchen on the opposite side, and the soldiers who were watching the city shouted: "The Tartars are up!" ”

This time the Tartar team came up, the teams slowly approached, there were still embarrassed prisoners and Han troops in front, but the slowly advancing brigade did not rush to attack the city, but began to clean up the wreckage of the shield cart and various siege equipment in front of the city, which couldn't help but make people more nervous

This is to sweep the battlefield and prepare for the attack of the brigade, and then I am afraid that it will not be those cowardly, pitiful and hateful prisoners and the newly attached Han army, but the Jianzhou Eight Banners that have been waiting for the Jinzhou defenders to consume, and it will definitely be very difficult to fight next.

"Why is the brigade dispatched at this time?" Chen Jisheng and Zhang Pan have this doubt, after a long time on the battlefield, they have an understanding of the rhythm of the war, when to send troops and when to retreat, in their opinion, at this time, it is not yet the time for the Tartar team to dispatch, because the Jinzhou defenders are still sharp, the main force has lost but has not damaged the fundamentals, it should continue to be consumed, and then take it in one go, why is it dispatched now, this is confusing.

However, they didn't think much about it, the Jianzhou Jurchens stepped forward at this time, and the next battle must be a vicious battle, but when they can kill the enemy, kill a few more Tartars, and finally don't lose, and now no one thinks about how long they can live, it's nothing more than the idea of killing one and killing two to make money.

At this time, it was almost dark, and the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses were still cleaning up the battlefield, so did they want to attack the city overnight? This is difficult in Golden State, where there is a lot of fog on the sea at night, and it is difficult to see anything five paces away in the fog, and the defenders have a much advantage over the attackers.

Thinking so, the defenders of Jinzhou still didn't dare to slack off, and they were all tense and solemn for battle, waiting for the battle to come, but after the Jianzhou Jurchens cleaned up the battlefield, they did not step forward with siege equipment, but retreated.

What kind of mystery is the Tartar doing, I was wondering here, but I heard a sudden movement in the Jianzhou Jurchen army array, I thought it was a roar and shout, but when I listened carefully, it was cheering, no matter how you look at this situation, there is nothing worth cheering about, what are you happy about?

"Cannon. Cannon. One of the archers at the head of the city screamed, his voice trembling.

By the light of the setting sun, they could see each other clearly, and objects such as cannons were not hidden, and the cannons that shimmered with metallic light could be seen pushed out, a total of two cannons.

The head of the city of Jinzhou has become quiet, everyone is staring at the artillery in front of the Jianzhou Jurchen army, since the Jianzhou Jurchen invaded Liaozhen, a large amount of equipment of the Ming army has been captured, and there are a lot of firearms, as long as the Ming army is willing to surrender, there is a good treatment, but Liaozhen has been comfortable for too long, and the artillery is mainly used for the defense of the city, so there is not much artillery stock here, all of them are used in the western direction of Liaoxi, which is more important to the Jianzhou Jurchens, not to mention the inconvenient road from Liaoyang and Shenyang to Jinzhou, The Jianzhou Jurchens did not have suitable means of sea and river transportation, and it was very inconvenient to transport artillery.

Therefore, for the remnants of the Ming army in Jinzhou and Phi Dao, firearms are their strength, regardless of what firearms are on the Tartar side, and the people transferred from Dongjiang Town have also proved this, the Jianzhou army attacking Dongjiang Town is obviously the main force, and such a large scale does not carry artillery, so this side is obviously a partial division, let alone consider this.

I never expected that two artillery pieces would be taken out here! ”

The general's cannon is the general's cannon"

The so-called general cannon is roughly the caliber of the nine-pounder cannon in Western artillery, which is already a powerful weapon in the Ming army, and this kind of cannon is also known as a cannon "eroding for several miles, killing and injuring countless people".

"This is to transport the cannons at the head of Liaoyang City," Chen Jisheng muttered, everyone in Liaozhen has a little number, and it is natural to judge where such a militaristic weapon comes from.

Someone suddenly cried at the head of Jinzhou City, the cry was very loud, and after crying a few times, he was knocked down by the people around him who covered his mouth, Chen Jisheng and Zhang Pan didn't even bother to order the marching method, after seeing these two artillery, everyone was indeed dying, and this battle was probably going to be difficult.

"Two generals, we have to block the city gate quickly, otherwise it will be over after knocking on the city gate!" When it was quiet, I only heard a young voice shouting, which woke up the stunned everyone, and looked over, but it was Kong Youde who shouted there.

Jinzhou City has not been a dead defense, the dead guard must not last too long, so there are two city gates that are not blocked, maintaining a state of attack at any time, one is to fight head-on with the Jianzhou Jurchens, and the other is to receive the support of the port wharf, it turns out that this tactic is quite effective, but once the other party has artillery, the city gate must be blocked, otherwise it will become the weak point of the city, after being bombarded by artillery, the enemy army is easy to rush in.

If you want to place such a general cannon, you need very cumbersome steps, you need to build an earthen platform on the ground, then bury the wooden box in it, and then fix the heavy cannon body on it, and then charge and shoot after correction.

"Go and block the city gates, both city gates are sealed!"

"It's up to the ship to come back," someone muttered, but no one answered.

"The Tartars are going to fire, hide quickly!" Some people shouted and shouted, this side is very close, every time the artillery fires the movement is very noisy, for example, there will be fire around the artillery, the busy crowd will suddenly disperse, etc., the Jinzhou defenders listened to those people on Phi Island, what Xuzhou people artillery fire quickly and so on, everyone does not believe it.

There was no one exposed at the head of the city and everywhere in front of it, and there were two loud bangs, and the defenders who were hiding heard the whistling of cannonballs, and then the walls shook with it, which was hit by cannonballs.

Immediately after the two cannon shots, someone from the defender's side rushed to the top of the city, lit the lights and looked, they wanted to see the damage to the city wall by the shells, they didn't care much about the second round of shelling, experienced officers and soldiers knew that it would take a long time to reload after the cannon was fired, as long as they kept an eye on it, there was nothing unsafe.

The general cannon is known as opening the mountain and cracking the stone, in fact, the rammed earth city wall inside the outer layer of masonry is not so damaging, but two pits are opened, but since there is artillery, it will definitely not just stare at the frontal bombardment, with a small city like Jinzhou, if it is aimed at a corner of the city wall, the possibility of two cannons collapsing the city wall is very large, and even hitting an inclined plane in the front city wall is a big trouble.

No matter how tenacious the Jinzhou defenders are, they have no chance of winning in the face of the superior soldiers and horses of the Jianzhou Jurchens, as long as the soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners of Jianzhou are given a place to settle down and land in the city, and the siege and defense of the city are turned into a situation of flat field warfare, it will be a disaster.

Although the day has been exhausted, but now no one mentions the matter of rest, and the food used in the careful budget is also taken out and eaten openly, at this time, although everyone does not mention it, but they all know in their hearts that the days of staying in Jinzhou will not last long

Facing the head of the Jianzhou Jurchen artillery port, some people were staring at every move over there, for fear that the opponent's artillery would fire again, but they waited until it was dark, and waited until the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses on the opposite side rested at night, and did not wait for the second round of artillery to fire.

But this did not make the Jinzhou defenders feel the slightest ease, it was dark and there were too many dangerous night battles, so wait for the next day to start at dawn, as long as the artillery knocks the Jinzhou City open, then everything will be over, even if the city wall cannot be broken for a while, this thunderbolt sounds, and the morale may not be able to support it.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, the morale of the Jianzhou Jurchen camp on the opposite side is high, and even singing and laughter can be heard, while the city of Jinzhou is dead and silent, no matter how worried you are, the exhaustion of these days, coupled with the sense of relaxation that has confirmed despair, makes many people fall asleep, but some people can't sleep.

Chen Jisheng and Zhang Pan are considered old in the Dongjiang Town system, although they are still standard young people in the Guannei Jiangmen, the two of them gathered in front of the fire to eat dried fish and drink hot water, dried fish is also the only material that is not lacking in Jinzhou, take this as a snack, drink water without tea, it is a rare leisure.

"Mao Shuai is a scholar, he had a peaceful and well-off life, but he came to this dangerous Liaodong to endure hardships, he has great righteousness in his heart, but he also wants to seek great wealth!" Chen Jisheng and Zhang Pan are both Mao Wenlong's confidants, so they can naturally speak very clearly, and the situation has reached this point, there is nothing that cannot be said.
