Chapter 60: Attack on Jinzhou

The fierce war drums of "dong dong dong" in the Ming army's formation continued to roar.

As the artillery was fired, the fire on the city alternated with black smoke.

The flags at the head of the city were moving, and there were many people, but they were surprisingly quiet, and there was no response.

The Yuelong Army and the Yulin Army held long shields, followed the drum beat, and shouted in unison: "Kill, kill, kill."

Then attack at the four gates, and dozens of stairs quickly approach the city walls.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Seeing that the Ming army was approaching, the few soldiers who were captured began to fire artillery.

A handful of sharpshooters fire arrows from time to time. There was no way, there were not many arrows left in the city, so they had to be gathered and handed over to the archers to use.

Most of the Yulin and Yuelong armies were armed with shields, and it was difficult for the Jianyu archers to succeed, so they had to shoot the soldiers carrying siege ladders.

But those people were also well protected, and the archers had a feeling that they didn't know what to do for a while.

However, the artillery at the head of the city frequently succeeded, constantly shattering the shields and blowing up the rushing siege ladders. However, the number of artillery is too small, and the effect on the entire battlefield is minimal.

Soon, a large number of siege ladders were transported under the city walls, where they were lifted high by the combined efforts of the soldiers.

The phase of the siege with the greatest casualties began.

"Holy Lord, I see that Jianyu's counterattack is weird, how do you feel that the number of defenders is less than 100?" Wu Sangui said.

Zhu Youjian nodded, and he was also suspicious.

"Li Qing, did you see clearly the night before, how many people were there in the city?" Zhu Youjian was strange, the siege was too smooth, and it made people's scalps tingle.

I always feel that there are bad things waiting for everyone.

"Back to the saint, the night before was filled with fire, thick smoke was billowing out, and the minister really couldn't see the number of survivors of Jianyu."

"Let's go, let's go forward, take a closer look, and help by the way." After that, Zhu Youjian held a rifle in his hand and patted his horse forward.

Walking near the range of the artillery, Wu Sangui stepped forward to persuade Chongzhen.

With the victory in hand, of course Zhu Youjian didn't need to risk his life, he stopped his horse, picked up his rifle, and aimed at the city.

At this time, the Ming army had begun to climb the ladder, and the archers at the head of the city had also begun to shoot arrows with bows.

Zhu Youjian had already discovered this situation, but it was very strange, and the city seemed to have only this effective defensive force.

Although Zhu Youjian was puzzled, the rifle in his hand did not stop, and after a while, he had already shot more than ten defenders of the city.

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”

The Ming army shouted, attacking the city more rapidly.

Less than a stick of incense was left before the war drums were beating, and a large number of Ming troops had already climbed to the top of the city on the city wall that Zhu Youjian was helping to fight.

They quickly cleared the remnants of the defense and attacked in several other directions.

After another incense stick, the walls of the four sides were taken down and the gates were opened.

Zhu Youjian was restless and always felt that things were not so simple.

"Order, the soldiers at the head of the city are temporarily holding on to their place, and they are not allowed to go down the city!"

"Yes."

Li Yutian immediately stepped forward, "Holy Lord, but what changes have you discovered?" ”

"It just feels weird. If Jianyu is so fierce, how can he take this city so easily? Every soldier of mine is very expensive, so it's better to be careful! ”

"Holy mercy. The minister asked to enter the city first, wait for the stability in the city, and then welcome the saint to sit in Jinzhou! Li Yutian said loudly.

The gate of Jinzhou City is open, and it is easy to enter the city, and this credit must be deliberately let out by Chongzhen.

This is obviously a saint's love, and he must grasp it, Li Yutian's eyes are like torches.

"Exactly! Remember, be cunning and be careful. If Jianyu still has combat power, he must hide in the streets and alleys, waiting for an opportunity to make a sneak attack. And the cannon on the city wall barely roared, and I was worried that the Jianyu would lose his heart and be buried in the city! Zhu Youjian frowned.

Li Yutian was like an initiation, he really didn't expect this.

If you swagger through the streets and light gunpowder, you will definitely be blown up to the western sky.

"Thank you. Ministers must be cautious. Li Yutian said, ordered 3,000 men and horses to gallop towards Jinzhou.

Li Yutian rode his horse to the city of Jinzhou and restrained the war horse.

He looked up at the two big characters of Jinzhou at the head of the city, and was very excited, in addition to recovering the homeland of Jinzhou, more of a step closer to the marquis.

Even if it is not given to the marquis, the earl is a sure thing.

"The city gate can be carefully inspected, and there are no dead soldiers in ambush!" Li Yutian asked the Ming army guarding the gate in the city.

"Yudu Division, the inside and outside of the city gate have been inspected many times, and no one has been found, there is no danger!" The soldiers drank.

"Good! Town! ”

Li Yutian took the lead and rode in, he was really high-spirited, and his prestige spread far and wide today!

"Boom!"

Just as Li Yutian was about to pass through the city gate, a fire burst out of a house in the city, and the roar was loud.

The city gate was instantly ablaze and black smoke billowed to the sky.

"Oops!"

Outside the city, Wu Sangui shouted.

I saw black smoke gushing out of the entrance of the city gate, and more than 100 soldiers who entered the city gate rushed out, all of them panicked.

"Go, take a look at Li Qing's condition!" Zhu Youjian drank heavily.

Before the guards around him could react, the soldiers outside the city gate rushed into the city gate again.

I faintly heard a hissing roar: "Rush over to me and kill those birdmen!" ”

"Your Majesty, it's the voice of Li Dusi. It's very strong! Tian Shouxin said.

Zhu Youjian still stared at the city gate and said nothing.

When Li Yutian heard the roar just now, he subconsciously jumped off the war horse, kicked the ground hard, and flew towards the wall to escape.

This is the first reaction of years of war.

The city gate is not large, but if there is an attack, it must give priority to attacking the middle area. At this time, the base of the wall is the safest.

Before Li Yutian could land on his second foot, more than ten catties of lead bullet smashed on the back of the war horse he was riding.

The lead bullet the size of a human head went straight into the horse's body and exploded.

The huge shockwave flew away with the blood and bones of the horses.

Li Yutian flew out like a kite and slammed into the inner wall of the city gate.

The soldiers in the vicinity were also blown out, and several of them were seriously injured and lay on the ground without saying a word.

Li Yutian's blood was churning, and he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

After a few breaths, I took my first breath.

Stroking his chest, he sat up with difficulty.

"MA's, it's a flowering bomb, this is going to kill, fortunately, Lao Tzu is alert!"

Li Yutian adjusted his breathing with all his strength, and shouted with all his might: "Rush over to me and kill those birdmen!" ”

The Ming soldiers inside and outside the city gate were at a loss when they saw Li Dusi being bombarded.

Looking at the torn war horses and the billowing black smoke, I only thought that Li Dusi had returned to Huangquan.

Who would have thought that they could still call the shots loudly.

For a while, the soldiers at the head of the city, at the gate of the city, and outside the city all roared and rushed to the houses that were burning just now.

In that private house, more than a dozen Jianyu heard the Ming army rushing towards them, they all clenched their bows and arrows and steel knives, and with the mood of killing one to make one, killing two to earn one, they directly opened the courtyard door and rushed out.

The two armies soon met each other in short quarters, and the Ming army relied on the large number of people, thinking that it could quickly suppress Jianyu.

I didn't want to build a captive and repeatedly killed and injured the Ming army.

"Don't fight to the death, use a crossbow!"

Whoosh ......

The Jianyu soldiers could not avoid it, and they were instantly pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows, and only three or five reacted quickly and retreated back to the courtyard.

The Ming army did not give them a chance to escape and rushed in.

I saw four Jianyu soldiers with fierce faces, surrounding a person in a general's uniform.

More than 30 Ming soldiers held five-arrow crossbows, did not speak, and directly began to release arrows.

"Hahaha...... I didn't expect to be able to pull so many cushions in the end! ”

Abatai was like a madman, he didn't dodge or hide, and let the crossbow pierce his body, and the lead under his body rang out, and soon burned to the ground......

Rumble......
