Section 10 Sweeping

After arriving at Yulinpu, the Ming army immediately began to make siege deployments, although it was a rudimentary civil structure fortress, but the Ming army's three-pounder field artillery was obviously helpless against the city wall. Of course, there was no problem with the wooden fort gate, and the three-pounder cannon was a big hole when it went down, and after a few shots, the gate collapsed like waste paper.

After the gunners lined up in formation, the Ming soldiers began to approach the Inner Fort Gate with huge rattan signs—a side gate that the artillery did not dare to approach so they could not reach it. Although the Houjin soldiers on the enemy tower tried their best to shoot arrows, but there was no effect at all, although the accuracy of the firecrackers on this lonely few targets was extremely different, but they couldn't stand much, one hundred and thirty firecrackers took turns to shoot, and the Houjin soldiers fell down with a scream as long as they were hit.

After firing more than a dozen cannons in a row, the three-pounder cannon finally hit the enemy building on the left side, and with a loud click, the enemy building was crooked dozens of degrees, and several Houjin soldiers on it immediately rolled most of the way, and one of them desperately clung to the wooden fence to hang himself, and was quickly hit by the firecracker.

After the enemy building on the right side was also bombarded, the trench in front of the fort gate had been filled in a bit, and the barricades had been removed. With the order of the front-line officer, dozens of death squads began to hit the inner door with big trees.

Huang Shi watched the progress of the battle and sighed comfortably: "It's really easy." "This fortress is only used to defend against bandits and thieves, and it has little ability to defend itself in front of an army of two thousand.

The Houjin army in the fort also knew that this was a life-and-death situation, and the wooden walls on both sides of the fort gate kept poking out human heads, and bluestones and logs were thrown down fiercely towards the Ming army who hit the door.

Although there was a rattan cover, there were still Ming soldiers who were smashed to the head and bleeding from time to time, but unfortunately this kind of casualties hardly counted for nearly 2,000 Ming troops, and every time someone fell, they were immediately replaced with new soldiers. And the more and more terrifying cracking sound from the fort gate was also bent inward again and again.

After the threat of the enemy tower was removed, the Ming army's musketeers had already set up their muskets on the edge of the trench, and rows of guns flew the sawdust and gravel of the fort wall.

Soon the wooden wall was mixed with the figures of women, who were just as brave as the Houjin men and threw stones downward, and the Ming army's gunners, who had no pity for the jade, beat them to the ground.

After a while, smoke suddenly rose in the fort, Huang Shi shrugged, and said to Wu Mu with a sneer: "Jiannu is already desperate and is burning supplies, but I don't want it anyway, they will save me effort if they burn it." ”

The non-stop discharge of the probe horse always reported that there were no enemy reinforcements, and the fort gate finally collapsed with a bang, and the Houjin soldiers inside rushed forward to block the door, and the Ming army rushed to the door and fled in all directions as soon as they shouted, and the covering shield hand threw the big shield at the enemy fiercely, and then he was also rushing to jump into the trench.

Two hundred Ming soldiers with spears were already lined up in battle, and the tips of their guns were densely pointed at the enemy at the door. And the enemy did not rush out, one by one resolutely waved their knives and spears and rushed out to block the gate, followed by someone throwing javelins at the Ming army battle array, and a few feather arrows shot over.

After the Ming army in front jumped down the trench, the three-pounder cannon that had been extinguished for a long time after the collapse of the enemy building also roared angrily, and I saw a large ball of blood crushing a way from the enemy army in front of the door, jumping on the ground and rolling into the fortress.

Then there was a volley of firearms, and the rest of the Houjin soldiers struggled to pounce on the guns of the Ming army, and then they were poked to death in front of the battle one by one.

After the artillery rang out again, the defenders blocking the door had basically been shot out by the firearms, and just as the Ming army's gun array was cautiously moving forward, a person suddenly got up from the dead body at the door.

The Houjin warrior drew a semicircle horizontally in the air with a pestle in his left hand and a long knife in his right hand, as if to say something, the front-line officer glanced back at Huangshi, then sneered and spit out the whistle and took two steps back, and the gunner took the opportunity to leisurely adjust the muzzle of the gun.

The Houjin warrior coughed up a mouthful of blood, and Huang Shi saw that the fierce man's stomach had been opened by the fire gun: "The intestines are all flowing out and you can still stand up, what a fierce warrior!"

"I ...... I am Barutu of the Zhenghong Banner......" Houjin Samurai said intermittently in stiff Chinese, his legs and his left hand holding the barrel of the gun shaking more and more: "...... Who dares to fight with me? Wait for Han Dog, Han Dog, dare to fight!"

"Silly x!" Huang Shi couldn't help but scold, he thought he could hear some bold words, but he waited for this for a long time. Huang Shi waved his hand to stop He Baodao, who was eager to try, "Lao Tzu brought so many people here, it is clear that he is going to fight in a group, who the fuck is with you?" He shouted: "Fire hand, understand him!"

......

More than 100 corpses of the Houjin army were placed in a line waiting to be examined, men, women and children, and finally those pig-studded Houjin soldiers rushed out and killed their wives before rushing out, Huang Shi slowly paced from beginning to end: "How can there be more than 30 batches of armor soldiers?"

He Baodao, who was behind him, picked up the conversation: "It seems that Jiannu did not assemble immediately with the red flag, and Gaizhou Jiannu is not clear about the scale and determination of our army to attack." ”

"Yes, I see it that way. "Huangshi doesn't know if this is an opportunity or a setback, if the red flag can't be quickly assembled, then Huangshi can destroy more enemies by sweeping more Houjin strongholds, and in the face of this absolute advantage, the exchange ratio of the Ming army will also be very good. But on the other hand, if Gaizhou could not assemble an army comparable to the Ming army, the enemy army might not dare to come out to fight, and the plan to defeat the enemy army would be in vain.

"Put the wounded soldiers in the carriage, and bring the soldiers who died in the battle with them, and bring them back to Changsheng Island for burial when they return. "In this battle, the Ming army lost 12 people, and more than 30 people were seriously wounded.

Several post stations and warehouses encountered before the evening were burned by the Houjin army, and the defenders also slipped away early, and the battle in the afternoon made the Houjin army understand that this Ming army was not here for an armed parade, so they all sensibly avoided the Ming army's edge.

"Set up camp and rest. ”

After Meiyu Huangshi gave the order, he brought He Baodao and Li Yunrui, who accompanied him: "It seems that Jiannu has begun to assemble." Tonight, Jiannu's messenger is also about to arrive in Haizhou. We will cross the Qing River tomorrow as planned, sweep the post stations and warehouses between the Polo vortex and Gaizhou, and see how Jiannu reacts. ”
