Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 226
Don't underestimate the positive red flag of Daishan, the Prince of Dongyaoli, and these dozen red cannons.

If it was changed to deal with the Ming army before Zhu Youjian did not cross, his Zhenghongqi and [-] Han troops, plus the current firearms, could completely brutalize the Ming army several times their size.

It's a pity that he met Zhu Youjian's summoning soldiers. Qi Jiguang gave an order, and fifty red cannons quickly turned their muzzles and locked their targets on the Dongyao artillery position.

At this time, the Dongyao Tartars had already loaded their ammunition and were about to fire at the city of Liaoyang again. They didn't realize that disaster was imminent.

"fire"

"fire"

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Dongyao Artillery and Daming Artillery fired the fuses of the red cannons almost at the same time, and the sound of the cannons on both sides was deafening.

"Hit, our shell hit Minggou..."

Seeing the flames spewing from the muzzles above Liaoyang City, the Dongcap artillerymen thought their shells had hit the target and cheered happily.

However, they were overjoyed too early. Before their cheers died down, the artillery position was instantly covered by the artillery fire of the Ming army.

Thirteen cannons pk fifty cannons, the result can be imagined, and the artillery of the Ming army still bombarded from a height.

Two crenels of the city wall around Huang Ming were bombarded, and three artillerymen were injured by the collapse of bricks and stones.

All the artillerymen of the Eastern Captives were blasted into meatloaf by Ming army shells, and even the barrels of the artillery were smashed and turned into a pile of scrap iron.

This is not only the complete failure of the gunner's technology, but also the result of the advanced generation of artillery. The artillery of the Ming army was created systematically, and of course it is more sophisticated.

Seeing the artillery fire roaring from the top of Liaoyang City, the shells did not hit his shield chariot, but passed over their heads.

Daishan hurriedly looked back, just in time to witness the artillerymen under his command, all of which were crushed into meatloaf by shells, and Daishan almost fell off the horse.

Fortunately, the two sons were by their side, reaching out to protect Daishan.

"Ama, what's the matter with you, don't worry."

"Ama is fine, let them attack the city, hurry up!"

The two Baylors also hurriedly ordered to attack the city in a panic. After receiving the order, the shield chariot immediately began to charge.

"Siege the city, quickly attack the city..."

The Han army served as cannon fodder in front, and the Dongyao Tartars followed behind, and the shield chariot started again.

As soon as Huang Ming saw the shield car moving again, he hurriedly ordered concentrated artillery fire to bombard the shield car.

All the artillery immediately began to bombard the shield car frantically.

The shield car was made of wood after all, no matter how strong it was, it was impossible to withstand the bombardment of the artillery for a long time, and soon the shield car was broken one by one.

Once the protection of the shield car was lost, the Han army hiding behind the shield car immediately became cannon fodder.

In the end, after more than 20 shield vehicles were destroyed, other shield vehicles came to the moat. At this time, the artillery lost its effect, and the Han army took the opportunity to quickly erect the siege ladder.

A Ming army saw the siege ladder on the city wall, and hurriedly grabbed a long spear to push the siege ladder.

But after pushing for a long time, the siege ladder did not even move, and the iron hook was firmly grasped on the city wall.

Daishan saw that the siege ladder had been set up, and immediately sent an order:

"Order the Han army to attack the city immediately."

There is no way, since they have surrendered to the captives, they will definitely be used as cannon fodder during the war. The generals Zhu Shichang and Liu Liangchen of the Han army immediately ordered to attack the city.

The [-] Han troops immediately rushed to the base of Liaoyang City, trying to climb up the city's top along the siege ladder.

Zhu Shichang

A native of Liaoyang, the hereditary command of the avant-garde guards in Dingbian of Liaoyang in the Ming Dynasty, six years of destiny, that is, in 1622, Nurhachi broke through Liaoyang, Zhu Shichang led the crowd to surrender, and was named a lieutenant general.

Tian Cong was one of the lieutenant generals who surrendered to the East captives in the fifth year of his conquest of Dalinghe.

Liu Liangchen

A native of Northern Zhili, former general of Liaoyang in the Ming Dynasty, subordinate to Zu Dashou, served as a guerrilla general and stationed at Daling River.

In 1631, the army was defeated in the Battle of Dalinghe, failed to keep the Ming Minister Festival, rebelled against the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the East, and was awarded the third-class captain of Qingche, and later the third-class general.

In 1645, he entered the customs with the Eight Banners of the Eastern Captives, attacked Ningwu and invaded Gansu, Shanxi.

The two rebels commanded from behind, and the [-] Han troops scrambled to climb the siege ladder. These rebels were defeated in the first battle against Dongcap, and they were full of energy when they beat up their compatriots.

Qi Jiguang's face became more and more gloomy when he saw that the soldiers of the Eastern captives had not moved while the Han army was so brave.

He was extremely angry in his heart. If these scum of the nation were not killed, they would be sorry for the Ming soldiers who died in battle.

"Huang Ming, give up bombarding other places and aim the cannons at the city gate. As long as anyone approaches the city gate, whether it is a shield vehicle or infantry, a hundred cannons will bombard them at the same time to wipe them out."

"Yes"

Huang Ming immediately ordered to execute.

Qi Jiguang looked at Li Cunxiao again:

"General Li, immediately order the black armored cavalry to go up to the top of the wall, and all the cavalry officers and soldiers stand by the crenel, waiting for the rebels to come up to the top of the wall, and cut off their heads."

"Okay, execute it now."

Li Cunxiao agreed, and immediately sent an order to let all the soldiers of Xuanjia cavalry climb to the top of the city.

The Xuanjia iron cavalry officers and soldiers were very fast, and they all reached the top of the city in about 5 minutes.

Li Cunxiao looked at his capable subordinates, nodded in satisfaction and said:

"Soldiers, under the command of the governor, you immediately stand by the crenel, let the rebels climb to the top of the wall, and then have their heads chopped off by this general."

"Yes"

Li Cunxiao gave an order, and the Xuanjia army, wearing heavy armor and holding a Mo knife, quickly stood at the city wall and crenel, waiting quietly for the Han army to enter the city to die.

While the Xuanjia soldiers were getting ready, most of the Qi's army soldiers were also getting ready. They all held loaded flintlock guns.

All the guns were aimed at the crenels of the city wall, and as soon as the heads of the rebels were exposed, they would be blown up immediately.

Qi Jiguang's move was really ruthless. The rebels were under the city, and it was inconvenient for him to kill the Ming army. Once they failed, they would run away.

But when the rebels were allowed to board the city, the result changed completely. They had nowhere to escape, and there were only two paths left for them.

Either be beheaded, or jump off the city wall. Jumping off such a high city wall is tantamount to suicide. Anyway, both roads are dead ends.

Most people dare not use this kind of tactics at all. Let the opponent climb to the top of the city. Once they cannot be eliminated, their follow-up siege troops will continue to climb up, and it is very likely that they will lose the city.

The rebels thought that when they climbed the siege ladder, they would be beaten and shot fiercely by the Ming army, but soon found that no one paid any attention to them.

The rebels thought that the Ming army was frightened, so they seized the opportunity to climb up desperately, and soon dozens of rebels showed their heads at the crenel.

With a big wave of Qi Jiguang's hand, dozens of mo knives that cut iron like mud smashed on the heads of these rebels with a cold light, and their heads immediately rolled off the top of the city.

As soon as the heads of the rebels in front were cut off, dozens of people stretched out their heads immediately, the result was the same as before, the Xuanjia soldiers raised their knives and chopped off their heads.

Heads flew up one after another, streams of blood spurted out wildly, and dead bodies fell from the high walls of the city into the moat.
