Chapter 277
After several times of feigned attacks by the Ming army, they didn't react when they saw the captive Tartars on the top of Shengjing city. As long as the Ming army under the city didn't set up a ladder to attack the city, they almost ignored them.

Qi Jiguang knew that the feint attack for many days had completely paralyzed the Tartars in the East. With an order, the artillerymen of the Ming army aimed the muzzle of General Shenwei in the direction of the city gate.

The chariot standing in front of the cannon was pushed aside, revealing five huge muzzles with black holes. There was no other way. General Shenwei still had a limited range and had to move forward.

The Tartars saw five super cannons, and they were amused by the appearance of the mighty general:
"Hey, how could there be such a big cannon, Minggou dared not attack the city, but frightened us with fake cannons!"

In the past, the wars fought by the captive Tartars in the East were all barbaric charges. They relied on fast horse charging and riding and shooting to win. They only had firearms after Kong Youde and others surrendered.

The red-clothed cannon was already a magic weapon for them, and a cannon as big as General Shenwei completely overturned their cognition.

There was no reaction for a long time, they all thought it was a fake cannon made of wood, and the Tartars pointed at the general Shenwei and began to laugh at the Ming army.

Jiala Ezhen, who was sitting resting behind the city wall, heard the discussion of the Tartars, and hurriedly got up and picked up a single-tube telescope to watch.

But seeing that the fuses of the five super cannons had been ignited, they were almost scared to pee, and hurriedly shouted:

"No, it's a real cannon. Hurry up and inform the prince that the Ming army has set up cannons to attack the city. Brothers opened fire on those five cannons."

"Boom"

They reacted too slowly, and before they could ignite, five huge shells flew towards Shengjing City, and the shells hit the city wall, causing the city wall to shake instantly.

Then there was a big hole in a city wall blasted by three hundred catties of solid bullets, and one of the huge shells bombarded the top of the city.

With a loud noise, the Tartar Jiala Ezhen and several Tartar artillerymen who had just commanded the red cannon on the city to fire were immediately smashed to pieces.

The red-clothed cannons around them were also destroyed, but the huge solid bullets still did not stop and were still rolling forward rapidly.

The tartars were frightened and turned around to run away desperately, but with so many people crowded together, how could they be faster than the cannonballs of General Shenwei.

The solid bullet crushed another ten tartars before stopping, leaving only piles of meat paste where the huge solid bullet bounced and rolled.

"fire……"

"Rumble..."

Other places on the top of the city captivated the Tartars, and they also found five mighty generals. Their artillery immediately began to bombard them, targeting the five super giant cannons.

But under the panic, it was impossible to aim at all. The artillery shells on the city flew over the heads of the Ming army artillerymen and landed on the grass not far behind the Ming army artillerymen.

Qi Jiguang put down the binoculars and immediately issued an order to the artillerymen of the Ming army:

"General Shenwei, don't worry about the Tartars on the city, target the city gate and the city wall at the gate, other artillery bombards the Tartars on the top of the city."

"fire……"

"Rumble..."

Immediately, the sound of cannons rang out, and the Ming army's artillery had an advantage in both quantity and quality, and countless shells flew towards the city of Shengjing.

The artillery shells on the top of the city were also bombarding the Ming army, but they were obviously in a weak position. With the artillery restraining them, this gave the five great generals room to play.

The artillerymen of the Ming army didn't care about the shells flying over the city, and five huge shells fired out from the muzzle of General Shenwei angrily.

"fire……"

"Boom...

"Bang bang... click..."

Under the bombardment of General Shenwei's [-]-jin solid bullets, the city walls of Shengjing visibly shook time and time again, and several large holes were finally blasted out of the city walls.

"Fire..."

"Rumble..."

When General Shenwei's artillery bombarded the city that was about to collapse again, a section of the city wall was finally bombarded.

Under the bombardment of powerful shells, the solid city gate was also shattered into countless debris. As the super cannons continued to bombard, another section of the city wall was hit by three shells.

"Boom"

"Boom"

The city wall collapsed suddenly, and the moat was filled with broken bricks and stones from the city wall. Qi Jiguang drew out his sword and immediately ordered:
"The three gates attacked the city gate at the same time to cover our entry into the city. Be careful not to force the charge, and try to avoid unnecessary casualties. The Xuanjia iron cavalry Qi's army, all the masters of the Qi family army, followed the governor to enter the city to kill the enemy."

"rush"

Go, kill, kill all the dog tartars..."

Shouts of killing rang out from the four gates of Shengjing at the same time. Under the cover of the other three Ming armies, the [-] Ming troops who were mainly attacking the south gate swept towards Shengjing City.

Shengjing Palace
"Report to the King Regent and the Queen Mother, and the Ming army will attack the city."

Dorgon and Dayuer looked at each other:
"Why panic, they are feinting."

Seeing that Dorgon still had some disbelief, the reporter stammered anxiously:

"My lord, the city wall... the city wall has collapsed, and all four Ming armies have begun to attack!."

Dorgon stood up abruptly, rushed out of the palace, and shouted as he ran:

"Hurry up, tell everyone to prepare for the battle, and at the same time tell Hauge to guard the gap..."

After Dorgon left, Da Yuer also hurriedly delivered an order:

"Come on, step up the patrol of the palace immediately, and close the gate of the palace immediately if things change. If you find a stranger entering the palace, kill him immediately!"

"twitter"

Feeling bad, Da Yuer immediately began to arrange the defense in the palace. Once the gate of Shengjing was breached by the Ming army, the Tatars could retreat into the palace and temporarily close it.

At the same time, the Ming army at the east gate, west gate, and north gate of Shengjing lifted up the ladders and launched an attack at the same time. They mainly attacked the Ming army at the south gate to attract the soldiers from the east.

As soon as Dorgon ran up to the top of the wall, the Tartars came to report:

"My lord, something is wrong, the Ming army launched an attack at the four city gates at the same time!"

"Cunning Ming dog, they have not attacked the city for so many days. So they are paralyzing us. Quickly, let the people in the city come up to defend the city. Immediately notify Hauge to lead the bordered blue flag to the south gate to stop the Ming army from entering the city."

"twitter"

The Tartar messengers agreed, and immediately went to gather the men.

The Ming army outside the south city gate divided into three groups, and attacked Shengjing from the collapsed city wall and the south city gate respectively. Dorgon commanded the Dongyao Tartars to fire guns, arrows and throw rolling logs and rocks down the city.

Although the Ming army wore heavy armor and held shields, they also caused certain casualties.

This is the case in siege warfare. As long as the opponent defends, no matter how great your advantage is, there will be a large number of casualties on the siege side. This method of warfare cannot avoid casualties at all.

The end of this battle was the end of the battle. For the long-term peace of Ming Dynasty, the Ming army charged fiercely. There were no city gates and walls to stop it.

The Xuanjia iron cavalry was the first to charge into Shengjing City. As soon as they entered the city, they met the Dongyao Xianglan Banner. Li Cunxiao urged the horses, and danced the king of Yu to kill the Dongyao cavalry.

"Quick, stop them, stop them at any cost..."

King Hauge of the Qing Dynasty was in a panic and commanded the Dongyao cavalry to intercept the Xuanjia cavalry, but how could they stop the Xuanjia cavalry and Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao waved the God of Yu King and quickly charged into the cavalry of the Eastern Captives. The God of Yu King in his hand immediately turned into a scythe of death, continuously harvesting the lives of the Tartars of the Eastern Captives. He was unstoppable.

Ordinary cavalrymen couldn't last two breaths in front of Li Cunxiao, and Li Cunxiao's head would be smashed immediately. Wherever his horse went, there were only tartar corpses on the ground.

The two Jiala foreheads really urged them to go forward and fight Li Cunxiao in both battles.

"Boom bang..."

After two rounds, they failed to hold on, and they were headed off by Li Cunxiao, and their bodies turned over and fell off the horse.

Seeing that Li Cunxiao looked like a god descending from the earth, Hauge became anxious immediately. He took off his strong bow, and immediately stretched his bow and set an arrow at Li Cunxiao and shot an arrow.
