Chapter 216 Blowing Up the City Wall

In the fifth year of Honghua in the Great Zhou Dynasty and the 22nd year of Kangxi in the Puppet Qing Dynasty, on the third day of October, the lunar calendar was cloudy, with light rain occasionally, and white gas could be seen when soldiers breathed. 【】

After wheel-type excavation, the Third Infantry Regiment successfully excavated a two-meter-deep and less than one-meter-wide trench leading directly to the city of Dujigensk.The trench turned underground when it was [-] steps away from the city wall. In fact, the last part of the distance was dug in an underground way, because no matter how concealed it was, it was impossible to really dig a trench towards their city wall under the eyes of the Russian army at the head of the city.

Seven hundred catties of black powder were packed in three large pottery pots and carried into the tunnel at [-]:[-] a.m. Maoshi. A two-meter-long matchlock was rushed out overnight. The person responsible for the ignition and blasting was the No. The first team of the first team, the first team, the team officer, Guo Sidai, a Sauron, was a former Red Banner soldier of the Qing army, and was good at handling firearms.

After everything was ready, the sky was still dark, and there was no light in the eastern sky, only a little white belly.

The two brigades of the Second Infantry Regiment and the two brigades of the Third Infantry Regiment had been ordered to assemble in the trench. They had received orders to rush into the city as soon as the city wall fell.The first brigade of the first cavalry regiment and one brigade of the second cavalry regiment were the second assault group, which only waited for the infantry to follow up after entering the city, completely disintegrating the resistance of the Russian army in the city.

Before the battle, all the alliance teams that entered the city received orders issued by the Guanning Army Marshal Zhao Qiang himself. After entering the city, they did not stay behind.

It was Zhao Qiang's deliberate decision to massacre the city after breaking the city. He believed that only in this way could he negotiate with the Russians after the war in his own favor.As long as the goal can be achieved, the massacre is not shameful, not to mention that most of the city is armed with Russian soldiers, and their hands are no less bloody than others, so Zhao Qiang did not have any psychological burden when he issued the order to massacre the city. It is completely different when the day ordered the driving of civilian husbands and people of all ethnic groups to serve as cannon fodder.

Just after Mao Shi, Zhao Qiang led a group of generals to a small soil slope. This place is condescending, and everything that happened on the battlefield can be seen. The location here is also convenient for timely adjustment of troop deployment.

It has been raining for a while, and the few coir raincoats of the army have been distributed, but most of the soldiers still have no shelter from the rain, so they can only nest in the trenches and let the drizzle fall.Cold, every soldier feels cold, but their hearts are hot, and their blood is hot. With the order to massacre the city, the Guanning Army boiled from top to bottom, and military achievements, wealth, and women were deeply stimulated like a black hole. them.The [-] heads of the Raksha people yesterday also drove them crazy. Some Fei Yala and Ewenki who had sucked the blood from the heads of the Raksha people were even naked. It is fanaticism, and the eyes are full of confidence and firmness.

"Master."

Looking at the fuzzy city wall of Dujigensk in the distance, Liu De took a breath, and nervously asked Zhao Qiang whether he could blow up the city wall of the Rakshasa people. Except for Zhao Qiang himself, all his subordinates including Liu De were skeptical. They are very afraid that this time they will return with the same success as Governor Rakshasa in persuading surrender.

In order to show that he and his subordinates share weal and woe, Zhao Qiang has no other protection from the cold except for the cotton armor, and he doesn't even have gloves on his hands. Standing on a high slope, although he has a wide view, he also has to be blown by the cold wind Raid.His teeth were trembling from the cold, and after hearing Liu De's words, Zhao Qiang gave a slight "hmm", walked forward a few steps, glanced calmly at the soldiers in the trench, and then turned to the crowd and said two words heavily: "start!"

After receiving the order to do something, Guo Si swallowed in a daze, glanced nervously at the soldiers behind him, and told them to retreat in a low voice.After the soldiers all exited the tunnel, he held up the torch and moved forward cautiously.Feeling forward all the way, all the way, Guo Si was stunned, thinking about Lord Qianhu's promise to keep him as the general banner after the fulfillment.

General flag!This is the team officer. Now Guo Sidai is just a small team officer, and he was promoted to the general banner at once, but the officer was promoted to three ranks, and there were many benefits corresponding to it. This made Guo Sidai, who was born as a captive of Sauron, yearn very much. The Oroqen people who are already a hundred households, he is very jealous, and often slanders in private, these Oroqen people have surrendered earlier to get high officials, if I also voted for the Guanning Army earlier, how can you get promoted and make a fortune? .

Guo Sidai is full of confidence in this mission. He arranged and moved the gunpowder himself, and calculated the quantity. He also twisted the matchlock by himself. Now he is the one who lighted the fire himself. No matter what, the general flag is a sure thing!

fry!Blast you red-haired ghosts to death!Blow up a general banner for me!After touching the end, Guo Si stared blankly at several large jars and shot the last glance, and stretched out the torch without hesitation, "Hey!" Quickly burning forward along the track.Guo Sidao didn't dare to go any further, so he turned around and ran outside. Although the matchlock was long enough for him to run to a safe place, he was just afraid, afraid of being buried alive in the ground.

He ran desperately, didn't want the torch, and ran forward with his eyes closed. He didn't know how many times he knocked his head, and he didn't know how far he ran. There was a muffled sound, the ground under his feet trembled violently, and then a heat wave hit him from behind, throwing him to the ground in one fell swoop. Accompanied by the heat wave, there were countless soil and debris, which choked his eyes, nose, tears, and snot. As if suffocating, I couldn't breathe, and then my eyes went dark, and I passed out.

Outside the tunnel, everyone heard the muffled sound and felt the violent shaking coming from the ground.

"Blast! Blast!"

Outside the tunnel, the general banner and hundreds of households who waited until their noses were dripping with sweat jumped to their feet, dancing and shouting, regardless of their identities.Excitement spread instantly, and all the soldiers cheered in the trenches.

Qi Zhuang, Ma Long, and He Manchuan also breathed a sigh of relief, with smiles on their faces.Zhao Qiang's eyes were fixed on the city wall of Dujigensk. The explosion happened underground, so the flames and smoke did not appear. He only felt the ground under his feet shake violently, and then disappeared. Trace, as if nothing happened.

Zhao Qiang was there, staring at when the city wall of Dujigensk would collapse, but a minute passed, and the imaginary city wall did not collapse as scheduled, and was still standing in front.

"Did the city wall collapse?"

Everyone was stunned at Dujgensk, everyone has arrived, and the city wall has not collapsed!

what happened?Everyone asked this question from the bottom of their hearts, the cheers disappeared in an instant, and the officers and soldiers stared ahead with wide-eyed expressions of doubt.

Guo Sidai, who was carried out of the tunnel by his soldiers, also woke up. The first thing he said when he woke up was to ask "Has the city wall collapsed?" But no one answered him. People's faces were full of doubts and disappointments. Guo Sidai struggled to get up, he realized that something was not right, and sure enough, the part of the city wall that should have collapsed was still standing there.

"Damn, why can't it blow up!" Guo Sidu's face was full of disappointment and anger, but he got nothing in exchange for his life, which made him stunned on the spot as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer.

The Russian army at the top of the city didn't know what happened. The violent trembling made them unsteady on the city wall, thinking it was the Qing team attacking, but their field of vision was still so calm that no one could be seen.

what happened?All the Russian troops were at a loss. They asked each other with their eyes, but no one knew what happened.

The sleeping officers were also awakened by the explosion and shaking. They rushed out of their residences and crawled towards the top of the city without even caring about putting on their clothes. They asked all the soldiers they could see, but no one could answer their questions. .

Nikita didn't sleep all night. He knew that the Qing team outside the city would choose to attack the city immediately after killing the governor, so he didn't dare to rest. He had to stay at the top of the city until the attack of the Qing team was repulsed. Only then can you feel at ease.The violent shaking just now instantly disappeared the drowsiness that had troubled him all night, and also made him feel uneasy.From the sound, it seems that the Qing people used gunpowder, but the city wall was not bombarded by the Qing team's cannons, nor did the Qing team launch an attack.

What the hell are the Qing people doing?With doubts in their minds, Nikita and Vasily, who was driving the city, and other officers began to search around, trying to find out what happened just now.

After walking a few steps, I heard the shouts of several people suddenly coming from outside the city:

"Collapse! Collapse! Collapse!"

Thousands of soldiers of the Guanning Army shouted the same word "Collapse!" in different voices, and it was unknown who shouted it first, but all the people followed suit in a moment, even Zhao Qiang Then shouted.

"Collapse! Collapse! Collapse!"

Fuck it!Zhao Qiang shouted anxiously, he couldn't accept what his eyes saw, because he had no way out, if the city wall didn't collapse, Duji Gensk would become Guan Ningjun and his Waterloo.

Perhaps the chorus of thousands of people moved the heavens. Under the bewildered gaze of the Russians, the soldiers in the ditch closest to the city wall suddenly fell a stone straight from the city wall, and when the stone fell to the ground, it moved thousands of pairs The eyes have touched the nerves of thousands of people.

"not good!"

When the first stone fell to the ground, Nikita knew what was going on, but it was too late, it was over, and the next he couldn't scream anymore, because he had to run somewhere else immediately, or he would die. Brought to the city by the crumbling walls, and buried alive in stone.

"The city wall has collapsed, run!"

The musketeers yelled and ran towards the walls on both sides. No one dared to stay there anymore. The three-meter-high city wall swayed down like an old man, and countless stones fell from the city wall, smashing down Dust came out.After the dust passed, a gap of more than 20 meters appeared in front of Guan Ningjun.

"Come on!"

Qian Lin, deputy Qianhu of the Second Infantry Regiment who was the first to react, yelled when everyone was staring at the gap in a daze.One, two, three, the number of Guanning Army soldiers crawled from the trench and rushed towards the gap.The [-] infantry from the four brigades gathered in one place like several streams, and the sound of shouts, gunfire, and swords resounded like a symphony ensemble, resounding throughout the Dujigensk space.

"God, we're done!"

Looking at the densely packed clearing team rushing into the city through the gap, Nikita collapsed to the ground in despair, his mind went blank...
