However, such an attack did not make the Qing army under the city fearful, they still rushed forward desperately, and a team of Han army flags desperately held their shields, and pushed the ladder to the city wall, and the city wall was densely packed with people.

"Stone it." The Jingbei army defending the city shouted and threw the stones behind the battlements down the city wall, and almost every stone could be smashed on the head of the Qing army under the city without their aim.

The sword and shield soldiers of the Qing army, one by one, bent over their shields, covered the soldiers who set up the ladders, while the musketeers and archers of the Qing army kept shooting at the city.

The sound of killing, firecrackers, and cries shook the heavens and the earth up and down the city walls.

After shooting a round of arrow rain, the young men who assisted in the defense probed from the battlement and used the big forks in their hands to push the ladder that came up, and the pikemen of the Jingbei Army used the spears in their hands to cut the Qing soldiers who climbed up.

In those areas where the ladders were dense, the soldiers of the Jingbei Army kept throwing down the logs, and the logs full of iron nails rolled down the ladders, sweeping a large area, while the archers and musketeers of the defending army poked their heads out from behind the wall battlements and kept shooting at the Han troops who were climbing.

At this moment, human life was not as good as mustard, and one group after another of the Qing troops were killed, but more Qing troops were screaming and swarming up.

Li Xingzhi, who was defending the city, was also secretly surprised, this Qing army had taken the wrong medicine, and according to yesterday's battle situation, it would be time to retreat.

"General, what kind of soldiers are they?" Yang Fei of the Fire Gun Squad suddenly asked in surprise.

Li Xingzhi looked fixedly, but found that the newcomers were dressed in blue cotton armor and covered with copper nails, and they were rudely pushing away the Han army flag around him and began to climb the city with a knife.

"Is this a full soldier? This is Abatai's Blue Flag vest! "Abatai actually put in the Manchurian soldiers he treated as a baby pimple right now?

He hurriedly looked at the Qing army's military array, and saw a blue Jiala military flag set up in the Qing army's large array, knowing that it was indeed the real Manchuria.

However, even if the Manchurian soldiers went into battle, Li Xingzhi was not afraid, after all, the city wall was already guarded, and the Manchurian soldiers were attacking from the back, that is, exchanging two for one, Li Xingzhi also thought that this deal was worth it.

"It doesn't matter what kind of soldier he is, just fight." Wang Zhong said nonchalantly.

Three hundred Manchurian soldiers in double armor and armed with long knives violently pushed the Han soldiers who stood in their way to the ground, and then stepped on their bodies to climb the ladder.

The Manchurian soldier Niu Lu Actun who led the team was an old man who followed Abatai, and he was known as Baturu in his Niu Lu.

"Sons, kill Lao Tzu."

Acton brandished his long knife and personally led the team to the city, and the nearby Han army saw that the Manchurian soldiers were so brave, and their morale was also greatly boosted, and they climbed up behind these Manchurian soldiers.

"Shoot the arrows, release the guns!"

Although Shi Tingyu, the commander of Wuzhen Chaoha, who commanded the city, was angry with the rudeness of the Manchurian soldiers, he still shouted hoarsely and shouted at the fire soldiers around him to shoot to cover the Manchurian soldiers to enter the city.

Shi Tingyu knew that since the Manchurian soldiers were in battle, he couldn't help but let go, no matter how strong the city wall was, no matter how dare the defenders fight, they were not the opponents of those Manchurian soldiers.

These soldiers and horses who were treated as baby bumps by the Seven Baylors were all warriors in the banner, and they were all wearing several layers of armor.

They are not afraid of the guns and arrows of the Ming army at all, since this southern expedition, I don't know how many cities of the Ming army were captured by these Manchurian soldiers, and I don't know how many Ming troops were scattered by these Manchurian soldiers.

If he doesn't work hard at this moment, if there are too many Manchurian soldiers who have been damaged, Seven Baylor can spare him, it is Qibeile who spares him, and the families of those Manchurian soldiers will not spare him.

The war was already raging, and the Manchurian soldiers made the Qing army as excited as if they had drunk chicken blood.

During the siege of the Manchurian army, the casualties of the Jingbei army and the young men in the city began to surpass the Qing soldiers who climbed the city, and many of them were not killed by arrows, but were hacked to death by the Manchurian soldiers who climbed up.

Those Manchurians dressed in several layers of armor were not afraid of hitting the guns and arrows on their bodies, and one by one they desperately climbed to the city wall, although from time to time people were hit by stones or rolling logs and fell down the ladder, but they were not afraid of death at all, and still attacked one after another.

After dozens of Manchurian soldiers were killed and wounded, more than a dozen Manchurian soldiers finally climbed the city wall of Gaoyang.

After these Manchurian soldiers entered the city, they rushed and struck, and in a short time they emptied a small section of the city wall.

"Quickly turn the muzzle of the cannon and shoot it at Lao Tzu!"

Wang Zhong roared

You're not afraid of arrows, the artillery is always something your armor can't bear!

Several 400-pound tiger squat cannons deployed on the battlements adjusted their positions and fired non-stop at the Manchurian soldiers who rushed up the city wall, while the small cannons continued to suppress the traitor army who only wore those who followed closely behind the Manchurian soldiers.

Piles of scattered bombs smashed into the Manchurian soldiers who clashed back and forth, even if they were fierce and abnormal Manchurian soldiers, they couldn't withstand such dense firepower, and the Manchurian soldiers in Shangcheng began to keep people injured and fell to the ground.

The few remaining Manchurian soldiers could only retreat to the cloud ladder, wanting to meet the follow-up troops to enter the city.

"Put lime!"

Wang Zhong also saw that the Manchurian soldiers wanted to take over the follow-up Han army banner to the city, and once again sacrificed the best weapon to defend the city, lime powder.

Bags of cut lime were sprinkled down the city.

The banner of the Han army under the city suddenly fell into a thick fog, and then ran around like a headless fly.

At this time, the ten general cannons transferred from Beicheng were also urgently transported to Dongcheng, and then set up in the northeast corner, constantly bombarding the traitor army who were choking on lime and crying wolf.

A few Manchurian soldiers who attacked the city without backup were finally overwhelmed by the Jingbei army that rushed up.

Under the pressure of the defenders' lime powder, the brave Acton had no choice but to let his Manchurian soldiers leave the battlefield.

As soon as the Manchurians retreated, the Han army also retreated, but they did not receive the order to collect their troops, but reorganized themselves a lot of ground from the city wall.

At the end of the war, the Han army was the first to attack, and it was noon until now, whether it was the Qing army or the defenders, both sides were exhausted, and they were expecting that the other party could not support the rout, but as time passed, both sides knew in their hearts that this vicious battle was far from over.

The Manchurian soldiers did not capture the city wall after losing nearly 100 men, which made Abatai, who was watching the battle, faintly uneasy, but did not order the withdrawal of troops, but instead ordered to continue the onslaught, and to take Gaoyang City at all costs.

"General, if our Niu Lu is damaged too much, it will take Gaoyang City, and I am afraid that the emperor will also be angry."

Yang Guli, who was standing behind Abatai, felt sorry for his Niu Lu too much loss, and couldn't help but step forward to persuade him.

Abatai was still a little hesitant, but when he saw that Yang Guli actually mentioned Huangtaiji, he was furious: "The city is about to be broken, and you are actually afraid of the battle, this Huang Wenchang is so brave, if you don't get rid of it early, sooner or later it will be the disaster of my Qing Dynasty, pass on the general order, continue to attack." ”

"Wow!"

Yang Guli took the order and hurriedly stepped down to give the order.

"Knock, knock, knock......!"

The war drums of Abatai's urging troops sounded again, and the two Manchurian Niu Lu, who were waiting for the battle, rose up when they heard the sound, and pressed towards Gaoyang City with swords and spears.
