Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 252
Located at the border between Jizhou and Kuancheng, Xifengkou is a pass in the eastern section of the Yanshan Mountains.

The high cliffs on the left and right sides of Xifengkou Pass face each other, and the terrain is dangerous. From this pass, you can go east to the Daling River, north to the Tongliao River, and westward to the capital through Zunhua and Jizhou, an important town in Jibei.

Since ancient times, this road has been an important traffic route from the Hebei Plain to the northeast, and Xifengkou has closed the throat of this main road, so its strategic position can be imagined.

At this time, Xifeng Pass, which has stood for thousands of years, is undergoing the most severe test in its history.

Azig and Jierhalang commanded an army of [-] strong, and had launched a fierce attack on the Xifeng Pass for six consecutive days.

Two huge cannons in red clothes spewed huge iron balls out of the firing range of Xifengkou Guancheng. The iron balls hit the city wall, peeling off more blue brick walls.

After six consecutive days of bombardment, several openings had been blasted by red cannons on both sides of the entire pass, and soldiers from both sides of the attack and defense gathered in every gap.

Under Azig's crazy roar, groups of Jianlu soldiers rushed towards the gap with scimitars in their hands, and Li Jie, the general soldier of Jizhou Town, personally took command of the town. For six consecutive days, no Tartar soldiers were allowed to enter.

Both sides are fighting for an inch of land, and these gaps are like huge mouths, devouring the Manchus, the Mongols, and the Han.

This was the last conquest of civilization by barbarism.

"My lord, the gap in the west is almost over!" A bloodied soldier ran from the battlefield and knelt on the ground with his saber.

"Useless stuff! You've completely disgraced the frontier army of Ming Dynasty!" Li Jie, the chief soldier of Jizhou, slapped the desk with his iron fist tightly and said angrily.

He was dressed in dark black armor, and the iron helmet was placed on the table beside him. Dried blood was still faintly visible on his face, and white gauze was wrapped around his left arm. The blood seeped through the white gauze, and he was a fierce general!
The soldiers bowed their heads and remained silent. The entire Jizhou defense line was so long, and the total number of Daming defenders was less than [-]. In order to guard against the Jian captives, they had to disperse the defenses at various passes.

There are only [-] defenders at Xifeng Pass, but there are tens of thousands of prisoners... at least tens of thousands, and those two giant cannons... If this continues, there will be one or two gaps without tomorrow. Fengkou couldn't hold it anymore.

"Why haven't the defenders at Qingshan Pass come yet? Didn't I already issue a military order yesterday to ask them to come to support?" Li Jie asked the messenger.

"My lord, they have joined the battle just over an hour ago when they arrived, and now they have been fighting Jianlu in the east gap all morning!" Li Jie, the general soldier, said the first civil servant.

"Bring my saber!" Li Jie pondered for a moment, picked up the iron helmet on the table, and put it on his head again.

"Master Chief Soldier, your arm is injured, you can't..."

"Shut up, what is this injury? If you lose the pass, everyone will die! Get up and follow me to meet the enemy!" Li Jie interrupted the chatter of the food and fodder officer, took the saber handed over by the soldiers and out the door.

In Shaoqing, five hundred soldiers belonging to Li Jie, the chief soldier of Jizhou, gathered at the gap on the west side of the pass. They were all dressed in red armor and wore plain knives on their waists.

Most of these soldiers had bloodstains on their bodies. In fact, for a few days, they had been taking on the responsibility of firefighters. Wherever they couldn't hold on, Li Jie led them wherever there was danger.

"Follow me to meet the enemy!" Li Jie was all dressed up, carrying his saber and walked to the guards and shouted loudly.

The commander-in-chief never likes to talk too much, and the soldiers are also well aware of this. Fortunately, Li Jie has never treated them badly, and most importantly, there is no coward among them.

The deeds of Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu, the former garrison generals, have spread to the border. They trapped the isolated city with [-] defenders and resisted the Jianlu army of tens of thousands for three days. In the end, they all died in battle and died for the country.

I heard that the court was shocked. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. There is a flat river behind him. Everyone knows what this means.

The battle at the gap west of the pass has reached a fever pitch, with the Tartars holding machetes and the frontier spearmen fighting together.

More than [-] steps behind the Tazi soldiers, several rows of crossbowmen scattered arrow feathers at the frontier soldiers in the gap, and some frontier soldiers fell to the ground from time to time.

The frontier soldiers on the walls on both sides of the gap bent their bows and set up arrows, and they did not show any weakness to fight back at the Jian captives below. The corpses in the gap were piled up higher and higher, and the soldiers behind wanted to join the battle, and even crawled with their hands and feet Go up to the high ground made of green bricks and corpses.

Boom—a loud bang, a section of the city wall next to the gap was hit by a shell, and a section of the city wall without support broke instantly. fall.

The wall collapsed backwards and hit several frontier soldiers who had no time to dodge. The gap was widened, and the frontier soldiers who were already struggling to support each showed desperate expressions.

"Hahahaha—the city is about to be broken! Kill this king! Kill!" Azig and Jierharang rode on horses and stood at the rear of the battle formation. Azige couldn't help saying happily when he saw the battle ahead.

He is not good at siege and prefers field battles. The entire attack at Xifengkou is directed by Jierhalang, but this does not prevent Azig from bluffing. In such a bloody scene, if Azig can restrain himself from speaking , then it is not Azig.

He was waiting, waiting for the city to break, and he led [-] iron cavalry behind him into the city, killed the dog officer who defended the city, and brought the iron cavalry straight to the capital of the puppet Ming Dynasty. He will be the first to enter the pass The prince of the Qing Dynasty, he is the Batulu of the Qing Dynasty!

Azig's eyes widened fiercely, and the veins in the hand holding the scimitar bulged, and he even trembled a little. This was trembling with excitement. He was eager to slaughter and to see the screams of the Han people under his knife.

Under Azig's gaze, suddenly, there was a high-pitched shout of killing from the gap, and a team of frontier troops in red armor instantly blocked the newly torn gap.

The red-armored soldiers were very brave, especially before the red-armored soldiers, a well-known general in black armor passed by without a single general, and he repelled the Tazi soldiers who had just rushed up in just a moment.

"Yeah-Azig, I can't take it anymore, I want to go to battle in person!" It's been three times, and three times in the past few days, I almost broke the city. The red-armored soldiers repelled his Qing warriors.

Rao Jierharang was calm and sullen, but Azig was alright, he was the regent's brother, but what about him?Not even the direct lineage of the first emperor!

It has been six days since the siege of the city, and Daishan and the others would probably blame him again if he went on like this. Jierhalang was silent for a moment, intending to acquiesce in Azig's actions.

But just as he was about to give the order, a sentry galloped up to the two of them on a fast horse.

"Report! Your Royal Highnesses, an unknown army has been found in the rear!"
