Chapter 544: Heaven and Earth Thunder
Boom boom...
The sound of artillery was still there, but it was also getting weaker, and the city gate was still filled with gunsmoke and shrouded in a thick layer of fog.
Shang Kexi's eyes narrowed slightly, looking into the distance, and saw dozens of soldiers of the Dashun Army breaking away from the team, constantly galloping in the direction of the city gate, and the army in the rear was also slowly approaching, and he suddenly knew that although he didn't know what the commander of the Dashun Army wanted to do, he knew that the time for himself and others to act was also quietly approaching.
At this moment, Huang Taiji walked quickly from afar with a gloomy face, the armor on his body was sonorous, his expression became more and more ugly, and as he got rid of the scope of the dense fog and smoke, he finally saw the situation on the battlefield clearly.
The corpses lay there everywhere, mixed with the charred horse corpses, criss-crossed, horizontally and vertically, and ravaged by the flames of the unknown firearms of the Dashun army, and Huang Taiji knew that his plan had failed, and he worshiped them all to die!
In particular, the opponent's artillery position is still there, and an encirclement has been formed in front, which is the position where they launched their charge, and all of this has verified Huang Taiji's judgment in his heart.
Seeing Huang Taiji constantly approaching his own defense area, Shang Kexi's heart was happy, and he thumped nervously, but he still forcibly suppressed the Ji Dong in his heart, endured it, and while pretending to be calm, he even glanced at several henchmen nearby and made a secret gesture.
Shang Kexi didn't stand there anymore, and hurriedly greeted him, pretending to be sympathetic, and said with pity in his mouth: "Your Majesty, the battle between them is too tragic, I don't know where the Dashun army got those vicious firearms, they can actually spew out nearly a foot of fire dragon, plus the attack of the fire gun and the tiger squat cannon, they can't get close to the other party's red-coated cannon at all." ”
As a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years, at this moment, if you can't see Huang Taiji's intentions, this soldier who is still happy will be in vain.
Huang Taiji's face was gloomy to the extreme, he was blue, and he just wanted to say something, but he was preempted by Shang Kexi, pointed into the distance, and pretended to be anxious: "Your Majesty, you see, the Dashun army is attacking the city." ”
In an instant, all the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back, Huang Taiji followed the direction of Shang Kexi's finger, looked over, and the whole person stopped, his expression suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly ordered the captain next to him: "Quick, spread my will, immediately trigger the red-clothed cannon, block the Dashun army, and all the defenders are ready to live and die with the city." ”
At this moment, Shang Kexi couldn't wait to slap himself immediately, so angry that he didn't remind Huang Taiji that the Dashun army was approaching, but this sentence made the latter stop and did not continue to advance, and there were still more than ten steps away from his own defense area.
However, the anger returned to the anger, the secret hatred returned to the secret hatred, Shang Kexi's steps did not have any pause, and he sped up to meet it, and when Huang Taiji issued the holy decree, he hurriedly gave a look to several henchmen around him, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, which was fleeting, and he returned to his flattery.
"Your Majesty, let's command here, the city gate tower has become the target of the Dashun army's red-clothed artillery, the smoke is filled, the fog is shrouded, and you can understand the situation on the battlefield and the movements of the Dashun army in time."
"What King Zhishun said is right, then I will stay here for the time being and conduct command operations."
Huang Taiji dealt with it hastily, didn't say anything, and didn't continue to walk towards Shang Kexi's defense area, just stood there motionless, looking into the distance.
I don't know if I found Shang Kexi's abnormality, or if it was due to the wartime situation, the defense around Huang Taiji was strengthened a little, and no one was allowed to approach easily, even Shang Kexi, the king of Zhishun, could only stand three steps away without Huang Taiji's command.
Seeing this situation, Shang Kexi's heart suddenly became anxious, but he had no choice but to force himself to calm down, wait for the opportunity, and have to make a flattering and respectful attitude.
Boom boom...
The red-clothed cannons in the city suddenly sounded, and countless cannonballs shot in the direction of the Dashun army, however, with the sound of explosions, Huang Taiji did not ease up in the slightest, but became more and more solemn.
"Your Majesty, this group of Dashun troops is also too cunning, knowing that the range of our red-clothed cannons is just outside the range, but their cannons can hit us, which is also too annoying, and this battle is too embarrassing."
Between speaking, Shang Kexi looked indignant, slowly paced, trying to approach Huang Taiji, but was blocked by the latter's guards, Shang Kexi did not continue to approach, otherwise, it would be suspicious, but put himself in a dangerous situation.
"King Zhishun, there is no way, the weapons and equipment are not as good as the people, so our army is congenitally inferior to people, so we can only defend passively, relying on the city, to block the attack of the Dashun army......"
Before Huang Taiji's words could be finished, he was interrupted by a shocking explosion.
Rumble!
There was a sudden thunder between heaven and earth, as if it was about to tear through the sky, and the moment a huge explosion sounded, it was accompanied by a huge shock wave and a shaking.
At this moment, it was as if time and space had stopped, except for the explosion, there was no other sound, and the cannons on the city wall seemed to be dumb and stopped spitting shells one after another.
I don't know if it was because of the shock wave, or because of people's instinctive reactions, Shang Kexi and Huang Taiji suddenly fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and lay there.
At such an instant, I saw that the Dashun army moved again, and a cavalry of thousands of people separated from the ranks, and rushed straight to the direction of the city gate, which was also the direction of the source of the huge explosion, and under the gallop, in less than a minute, it had rushed into the dense fog and dust, and more and more cavalry disappeared into the smoke, as if there was a bottomless pit at the city gate.
Huang Taiji had already stood up, saw the gallop of the cavalry of the Dashun army, and found a scene full of weirdness, and immediately reacted, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly exclaimed: "It's not good, the Dashun army exploded the city gate with gunpowder, hurry up, let the defenders must guard the city gate, and not let an enemy enter the city!" ”
However, when these orders were issued, Huang Taiji would never have thought that an earth-shattering change just now had put him in danger, and when he was about to say something, he felt a cold in his neck, and a steel knife was in his throat.
"Action!"
When Shang Kexi shouted these words, one hand had firmly clasped Huang Taiji's shoulder, and the other hand held a big knife, which was on Huang Taiji's neck, constantly retreating, and several henchmen and guards were even closer, surrounding the two of them, protecting them in the center, and confronting Huang Taiji's guards.
"Kill~!"
With mental calculations or unintentional, in a moment, but only a few minutes, Shang Kexi's subordinates had already killed most of the nearby Tartars, and those Han troops who didn't know what was going on reacted in an instant, and raised the banner of the uprising one after another, joining Shang Kexi's team.
"King Zhishun, I think I am not thin on you, the Ming court is ruthless to you, but I have given you high-ranking officials and grace for generations, but you have betrayed the Qing Dynasty and betrayed me like this......"
Huang Taiji did not panic in the slightest, and let Shang Kexi pull him back, but he did not give up, and began to use words, trying to persuade Shang Kexi, and turned out his past reward for Shang Kexi.
"Haha... Huang Taiji, do you think it's still interesting to talk about this now? Will I let you go? ”
