Seeing the soldiers of the two red flags scattered in the gap in the city wall, he directly said to his eldest son Chang Adai: "You go up, don't escape back, even if you die, you will die in Gaizhou City!" ”

"Yes!"

Chang Adai shouted to the Eight Banners under his command: "The cavalry will rush with me!" ”

Siege the city with Manchurian cavalry, which belonged to the practice of the Eight Banners Army. Because they dismount and are infantry, and they are all the elite of the elite.

I saw more than 3,000 horsemen, rushing out of various passages of earthen walls and trenches, and following Chang Adai straight to the gap in the city wall.

Hauge also ordered: "Gather the rout and rest." Turg, Chaohar, you two lead your troops, and help the warriors with red flags at any time! ”

"Yes!"

Turg and Chaohar knelt down on one knee to receive the order, and then gathered their troops and set off.

Turg and Chaohar are both the elder brothers of Kubilong, and Turg once surrendered the Mongolian Chahar Department, and attacked the Ming Dynasty in history to break 67 counties in a row.

While the brothers were on the move, Chang Adai's cavalry had already rushed out.

More than 3,000 Manchurian cavalry, all dressed in double armor, rushed to the city in a loose formation under the artillery fire of the Datong army.

Because the Manchu moat was too close to the city wall, only more than 100 cavalry casualties were paid, and these cavalry had already rushed to the vicinity of the city wall. Those who approached the gap in the city wall immediately dismounted and turned into infantry, carrying ladders and rushing to the earth and stone platform. Those who were far from the gap rode and threw their arrows at the city.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

It was another 10,000-strong enemy, but it couldn't stop the attack of these Aliha Chaoha battalions.

In order to guard against the heavy arrows of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Li Fuguo did not let the soldiers guard the edge of the earth and stone platform. Chang Adai personally led the soldiers, and under the bombardment of outsiders and enemies, climbed the wooden ladder to the earth and stone platform.

"Bump!"

Li Fuguo gave an order, and the rattan players in the front row rushed forward together in a tight formation.

Aliha Chaoha soldiers, who had just climbed the earth and stone platform, were suddenly knocked down by a whole row of rattan players. The earth and stone platform is only three meters high, and it generally does not fall to death, but the Manchurian elite wearing double armor still falls down and falls to the ground, becoming the target of grenadiers and firecrackers.

"Shoot!"

At the same time, the Aleha Chaoha soldiers in the back shot heavy arrows at the Datong Army rattan players who rushed to the edge of the earth and stone platform.

"Come back!"

Li Fuguo hurriedly ordered, but there were still four rattan players with heavy arrows in their hands.

Taking advantage of this short gap, some of the Aliha Chaoha soldiers climbed the earth and stone platform again and strangled with the rattan players and pikemen of the Datong Army.

After Chang Adai was knocked down, his bare hands had been injured by shrapnel from 10,000 enemies, and he couldn't even hold the weapon firmly. A face was also bloody and fleshy, so smoked by lime and pepper flour that he couldn't open his eyes, and when he came back to his senses, the troops of Turg and Chaohar had already come to support.

"Kill the Southern Barbarians!"

The two brothers, Turge and Chaohar, rushed to the earth and stone platform at the same time and strangled with Li Fuguo's defenders.

Chang Adai staggered to his feet and went to climb the wooden ladder again.

"Bang!"

A bullet came from the left wall and hit Chang Adai's right shoulder, and this time he couldn't hold the knife at all.

"Kill!"

Chang Adai changed the knife to his left hand and continued to rush forward with his soldiers.

The gap was only 12 meters wide, and the two warring sides gathered hundreds of men. If you hit the back, you squeeze forward, and you can't swing the knife at all, but the 10,000 enemies keep smashing into the pile.

However, the enemy smashed less and less, in addition to the lack of ammunition, because of the gap in the walls on both sides, the enemy army was also using ladders to attack the city, and some grenadiers had to take care of those who landed in the city.

The Datong Army, which was defending the gap, was squeezed back a little bit, and several rattan players accidentally fell down and were trampled to death by the Eight Banners.

"Boom, boom!"

Chang Adai, who was smashed down by 10,000 enemies and wounded all over his body, was hit in the throat by a piece of shrapnel.

Blood gushed out of his mouth, and the son of the Red Flag Banner Master finally breathed on the battlefield. He didn't even fall, because there were people on all sides, and the corpses were squeezed to keep going.

The Datong army was also affected by the lime and chili noodles blown up by the 10,000-strong enemy, and it was blown by the wind, and both sides kept coughing with their eyes closed.

Hu Dinggui personally came to the city wall on the left side of the gap, regardless of the enemy troops who were climbing the ladder, gathered hundreds of firefighters, and fired their guns at the Aliha Chaoha soldiers who had gathered together.

"Three-stage strike!"

"Raise the gun!"

"Put!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Immediately, the most two or three hundred and eight banner soldiers were shot, and two Datong soldiers who defended the gap were also killed by mistake. It's still as much as possible to shoot outward, more at the follow-up troops outside the city, otherwise there will be more allies who are accidentally wounded.

There were still countless Eight Banner soldiers rushing up, and the gap was already unevenly piled up by corpses. The Eight Banners Army stepped on the corpse and rushed forward, and there was a condescending momentum, and some of them freed their arms and held knives with their backhands to cut their throats.

However, the firecrackers and 10,000 enemies in the city continued to cause casualties to the Eight Banners. The Eight Banners could not attack again, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated here.

"Kill!"

On the side of the city wall on the east side, there was a sudden earth-shattering shout of killing.

However, there were too many troops invested in the northern city wall, and as long as the eastern city wall was defended by peasants and civilians, it was attacked by two white flags and two yellow flags under the command of Dorgon.

The regular soldiers of the Datong Army fought bravely, but some peasant soldiers formed by the people of Liaodong were so frightened that they turned around and fled. They had only been training for two or three months, and had been enslaved by the Tartars for a long time, and there was always a fear of the Tartars in their hearts.

Liu Dazhang roared hard: "Don't escape, don't escape, if you escape, you will be a slave to the Tartar!" Lao Tzu doesn't want to be a slave, kill! ”

Kim Guozhen shouted in Korean: "Don't you have a surname? Don't you want your land? Do you want your wife? My wife is pregnant, for the sake of my wife and children, hurry up and work hard! Zhao Bodhisattva bless! ”

"Zhao Bodhisattva bless!"

These Liaodong peasants and soldiers didn't shout anything to farm and eat, but even shouted "Zhao Bodhisattva bless" one by one. It was as if the gods had possessed the body, and except for a few of the mischief, most of the peasants and soldiers who had fled were killed again.

Pan Hui, who was organizing and leading women to deliver supplies to the soldiers guarding the city, picked up the flat shoulder with a big belly: "Sisters, men are working hard, and we women are not afraid of death." If you don't want to be captured by the Tartars, kill the enemy with me! ”

Pan Hui is a young lady from a Hunan gentry family, and her husband is Yang Ye, the commander-in-chief of the artillery who died unexpectedly.

She used to stay with pregnant women, but when she heard that her husband had died, she came out with tears in her eyes to organize women to help.

Hundreds of women, carrying poles and clubs, climbed up the tower to join the battle. Seeing this, many people also put down their transportation work and rushed to the city wall together.

Seeing this, Liu Dazhang shouted: "Protect the woman, don't let the woman be killed by the Tartars!" ”

"Kill!"

Regardless of whether they had participated in the training of peasants and soldiers, the young and strong people defending the city rushed to the Eight Banners with red eyes.

Because the women who came to support were all wives of soldiers and civilians defending the city.

Darhan led his troops to attack the city wall, and his soldiers were killed one after another, but he stubbornly held the female wall at the cloud ladder and covered more Eight Banner soldiers to climb the city wall.

This is Nurhachi's son-in-law, during the bloody battle of the Daling River, more than 500 Ming troops went out of the city to fight, and Darhan led 80 people to defeat the Ming army. During the assault on the Mongol Zalut tribe, Darhan pursued and captured the tribe's Taiji (crown prince or younger brother).

Darhan originally belonged to the Blue Banner, and Dolgon adjusted the Eight Banners troops to bring Darhan, a fierce general, under his command.

Now, Darhan has been sent to attack the city!

Under the fighting of Darhan, more and more Eight Banner soldiers climbed up. On his left is the Datong army, and on the right is the peasant army, which carries the Datong army by himself and lets the friendly army fight the peasant soldiers.

Seeing the peasants and soldiers collapsing one after another, who knew that there were people who kept boosting morale, shouting and then killing back.

Some peasant soldiers with red eyes even threw away their weapons and sacrificed their lives because of the inferior equipment. Two or three peasant soldiers, knocked down one of the Eight Banners, and then rolled and wrestled on the city wall.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Wu Huapu hissed and shouted, the dragoons under his command had been temporarily converted into firecrackers, and they were in charge of other sections of the city wall.

After receiving the alarm here, Wu Huapu immediately led the team to support, the musket was loaded, and the bayonet was also put on, but it was stopped by a large number of people rushing up. Especially those women, who fought and had no combat effectiveness, blocked the reinforcement channel.

Fortunately, I don't need his help.

The frantic fighting will of the peasant soldiers broke out, which made the Eight Banners soldiers who engaged in the battle feel terrified. The Eight Banners soldiers who were close to the women's wall were even held by the peasant soldiers, and they fell over the women's wall together and fell to their deaths.

Darhan, a fierce general, was covered with many wounds, and after all, his two fists were invincible to his four hands.

After the soldiers around him died, he was pressed against the women's wall with several spears, and was stabbed into the throat by a single shot.

At the gap in the city wall, the Eight Banners could not withstand the fire of 10,000 enemies and firearms, and finally lost their troops and returned to the battalion.

On this day alone, the Manchus lost more than 3,000 killed and countless wounded. On the side of the Datong army, more than 500 regular soldiers were killed, and more than 100 peasant soldiers and civilians died.

Such astonishing casualties made the nobles of the Eight Banners unable to sit still, and they all clamored to withdraw their troops.

A few thousand more deaths will already break the muscles and bones for the Manchu Qing Dynasty!

That night, the fifth watch.

The vanguard of reinforcements landed by boat on the seashore on the west side of the battlefield. The number of people is not large, only more than 2,000 people, but Lu Xiangsheng and Xiao Zongxian are all here, and only Li Zheng stays to control the large army.

When the sky was about to turn white, they had already circled behind the Manchu batteries along the river.

"Kill!"

Lu Xiangsheng and Xiao Zongxian each led more than 1,000 people to raid the riverbank fort.

The Manchus clearly did not expect the enemy to come out from behind, and the artillerymen were killed one after another.

In charge of this section of the fort was Dolgon's confidant, Cao Zhenyan, an artillery general from Baoyi, Cao Xueqin's great-great-great-grandfather.

Cao Zhenyan woke up from his dream and saw that several forts had been lost, and immediately said to his son: "Escape!" ”

Cao Xi, Cao Xueqin's great-grandfather, drew his sword and shouted: "Father, the regent treats my Cao family like a mountain, how can he escape at this moment?" ”

"If your grandfather is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, our Cao family will be gone a long time ago, at this time, it is important to save your life!" Cao Zhenyan felt that his son was mentally retarded.

Cao Xi was reprimanded, and the father and son were loyal to the agreement and withdrew from the battery with all the remaining artillery.

"Don't let any of them go, kill!"

Lu Xiangsheng led hundreds of cavalry, and he had already blocked the escape route of Cao's father and son.

Most of the enemies here are artillery, and the enemy there is better than the cavalry?

Cao Zhenyan immediately knelt down and asked to surrender, he just knelt down, but saw his son draw his sword and rush towards the Datong army, so anxious that he hurriedly shouted: "Rebel, come back quickly!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng rode his horse and shot the young and vigorous Cao Xi to death.

In the faint morning light, Cao Zhenyan saw this tragic situation, and immediately knelt down and collapsed there, holding back tears and shouting: "The sin will be surrendered!" ”
