Chapter 86 Flooded Eight Banners Soldiers

Hearing the roar of the cannon, Huang Taiji knew that the city was probably impossible to take down.

The power of the Ming army's artillery in the Battle of Ningyuan is still engraved in my heart.These Ming people didn't dare to fight in the field, so they knew how to show their prestige by relying on the city wall and firearms.He also invented the sinister enemy of ten thousand people, who wrapped quilts with explosives and threw them down, turning many Eight Banners soldiers into barbecues.

Sure enough, the cannon at the head of Jinzhou City made a terrible noise and sprayed brilliant flames, blasting the shield car wrapped in cowhide into the sky, along with the soldiers behind the shield car.The shield chariot soldiers continued to advance and were constantly killed by bombs, but under the cover of the corpses of their comrades, they finally came to the bottom of the city and began to erect ladders on the city wall.

The archers shot upwards for cover, and the soldiers behind continued to climb up the ladders on the city wall.So one party began to climb up desperately, and won by climbing up.Yi Fang desperately prevented the opponent from climbing up, and if he resisted, he won.After all, the side at the head of the city had the advantage, and used everything they could use. Stones, logs, and kerosene were all basic operations.The cotton wrapped in straw and gunpowder was thrown where many people were thrown, and the burned Eight Banners soldiers were rolling all over.

The Eight Banners soldiers who attacked in the first wave were defeated by fierce resistance.

"Damn it! These cowards know that cats are throwing stones at the top of the city!" Mang Gurtai said bitterly as he saw the first wave of offensive being frustrated.

"Sweating profusely? What should we do now?"

Huang Taiji didn't know what to do. It would be better if there were no cannons.As soon as the cannon was fired, flowers bloomed everywhere it went.

The Eight Banners soldiers are not afraid of any battle, but they can't die, right?Hundreds of soldiers died in a short time.This is only a tentative attack.It seems that in the battle of Ningyuan, the Ming army tasted the sweetness and began to pay more attention to firearms.

"Attack the western wall."

Huang Taiji gave the order.Perhaps there are no cannons to the west?

But the facts disappointed him, and the sound of artillery from the top of the city made him a little depressed.Another hundred soldiers were killed in the siege.

It can't go on like this.

Do not!
Can't fight anymore!
Jinzhou does not have to be defeated, we are here to grab some food and drink to continue our lives, not to run to the city to die.

So Huang Taiji decided not to fight anymore.

He led his army around Jinzhou City and crossed the Xiaoling River mightily.Then came to the Dafu Fort, but at this time the Dafu Fort had been deserted, and there was no living person inside.After some searching, only a few useful things were found.Then there are Daxing Fort and Lumuchong Fort.But nothing came of it.Everyone retreated to Jinzhou in advance.

Then Huang Taiji and Mangurtai had a disagreement.

Huang Taiji advocated retreating, because Ningyuan would be farther ahead.

Mangurtai advocated to continue to move forward and attack Ningyuan Zhongzuo, that is, Tashan Fort.He firmly believed that with the fighting power of the Ming army, he did not have the courage to go out to fight in the city.Ning Jin's defense line is similar to his own back garden.

"Big Khan, I think we should just separate, and we won't be able to grab anything if we gather together. Ming people dare not go out of the city, so where can we go outside Shanhaiguan?"

Huang Taiji still disagreed. He thought that Jinzhou City could be captured smoothly. Relying on Jinzhou, he would advance steadily and step by step, but who knew that the defense of Jinzhou City, which was once defeated by himself, was now so strong.Even if it is defeated, it will definitely suffer heavy losses, which is not in line with the purpose of sending troops.Looking at the impatient Mang Gurtai, Huang Taiji wished he could kill this fifth brother who was jumping around in front of him all day long.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji suddenly made a plan.

"My fifth brother Zhenglan Banner soldiers are all brave and good at fighting. It is better for fifth brother to be the vanguard and lead the men to continue to advance. My eldest brother and my second brother will follow closely behind. If the Ming army does not leave the city, let them go. Back and forth."

When Mang Gurtai heard this, he felt good.Those mice that nest in the hole dare to come out?I am the pioneer of the blue flag, but I really snatched a good thing, don't I have to keep up with myself?Immediately agreed, he led [-] soldiers under his banner and ran towards Tashanbao.

Huang Taiji fell behind not far or near, as to whether Mangurtai would be ambushed.It's best to die outside, and I just went back to collect Zhenglan Qi.

But this time Huang Taiji was wrong again.

There was no one in Tower Hill Castle either.

Then Shaheer Fort, Changlingshan Fort, Baitayu Fort, and Xingshui County Fort were all empty.

What about people?

They all fled to the city.

Before the war, Zu Dashouren reported the news of Jiannu's attack to the court.Zhu Youjian knew it after a little thought when he received the Tang newspaper.The last big defeat, coupled with the attack on Shanxi merchants, Jiannu came to attack at this time, there must be nothing to eat.

So he ordered Ningyuan to be filled with troops, and asked him to fortify the walls and clear the fields, and guard the city.

Mangui's execution ability is very strong. After getting the news, he immediately moved all the soldiers and civilians from each castle to Ningyuan City.Leaving empty fortresses behind.Mang Gurtai didn't catch anything, and he turned back angrily to reunite with the army.

Huang Taiji was also very surprised, what the hell.When did Mingren become so useless?Don't you fight six thousand soldiers and horses in front of you?Mang Gurtai was a little frustrated, but he still acted like he was planning a strategy in front of Huang Taiji.

"I just said that people have no courage. Look, there is nothing wrong."

Huang Taiji gritted his teeth angrily, but held back without saying a word.

"Big brother and second brother, do you have any good suggestions?" He set his sights on Daishan.

"Ming people are cunning, and they can't shrink back. I don't think they can make any money if they spend more. How about going to the east?" Daishan frowned and said after thinking for a while.

"Yes! Go to North Korea!" Amin's eyes lit up, and he agreed.He is good at fighting North Korea. He fought once the year before last, and he is familiar with the road.

Huang Taiji also nodded. Although he signed the Pyongyang Alliance with North Korea the year before last, his side is in a difficult situation right now, so he can only borrow some food from them.

After some discussions, everyone decided that there was no need to delay and leave immediately.

The next day, the army came to Xiaolinghe again unimpeded all the way.

"Haha, my Eight Banners army is invincible in the Ming people's territory, and even the river has stopped flowing." Mang Gurtai was overjoyed, and immediately led the crowd to cross the river, not even leaving the bridge.

Huang Taiji also crossed the river, standing on the north bank of the river, watching the army crossing the river.I always feel that something is not right, how can it stop flowing when it is good?

not good!

Counted!
Huang Taiji hurriedly ordered the army that had already entered the river not to delay, and hurry up to cross the river.But it was too late, and there was a rumble from upstream.Everyone's face changed drastically when they heard this!Picked up the pace again.

But no matter how fast and how fast they crossed the rushing river, for a while, the Eight Banners Army who was still in the middle of the river was turned upside down by the rushing people.

Huang Taiji ordered people to rescue the soldiers in the river, and at the same time ordered them to be on strict alert. At this time, there were nearly [-] soldiers who had crossed the river, and there were thousands of infantry on the south bank, most of them were shield chariot soldiers and archers.

An ominous premonition enveloped his heart.

Soon, his premonition came true.

The sound of rumbling horseshoes came from a distance, and at a glance, there were at least three thousand cavalry.

The infantry on the south bank reacted immediately, pushing carts into formation, preparing to defend against the cavalry attack.

But in a hurry, there is no time.As soon as the archer shot two arrows, he was rushed to the front by the cavalry.

Charge, divide, destroy.

On the other side of the river, Huang Taiji watched the cavalry with three-eyed guns massacre the Eight Banners soldiers one-on-one, his teeth were about to be gritted!
The [-] Banner soldiers behind them also had red eyes, wishing they could fly across the river and bite these sinister Ming people to death.

Two hours later, except for a small number of Eight Banners soldiers who could swim and swam to the north bank, all the rest were killed.

The general of the three thousand cavalry leaped to the river and looked at Huang Taiji and others on the other side.

Huang Taiji recognized each other at a glance!
Man Gui!
