Chapter 427 The Battle of Shenyang

After the east turned white, the trumpet of the Ming army sounded, and when most of the soldiers and civilians in Shenyang City were still hiding in their beds, the battle for the inner gate started.

The artillery phalanx showed off its power just like when it bombarded the Great South Gate. There was a roar, and pieces of iron roared towards the top of the city, setting off pieces of gravel and dust.

The deadly irons falling from the sky made the golden soldiers guarding the city sweat. They huddled there and covered their ears to endure the vibration of their bodies. Huh, even if their mouths are full of dust, they dare not close their mouths, because the consequences of doing so will only make it more difficult for them to breathe.

Most of the iron hit the city wall, but a few of them crossed the city wall and hit the stones piled up behind the city wall. These stones were used by the Jin army to block the gap. It flew up, smashing the surrounding Jin Bing and Aha ghosts and howling.Seeing that the Ming army's artillery showed no sign of stopping, the clever Jin soldiers immediately scattered with a blast, hiding far away from the stone pile, so as not to suffer a disaster.Aha, who was inexperienced, stood there stupidly at a loss. When the Ming army's cannon fell again, he couldn't run even if he wanted to, and his whole body was smashed to pieces by the crushed stones.

On the top of the city, the sound of broken bones from being hit by the body was loud, and the sound of wailing also made people's hearts tremble.The blooming broken iron shell is the most difficult for people to dodge. Obviously the cannon exploded far away, but it was able to blow up itself, making it impossible to guard against.In the end, almost all the golden soldiers chose to lie on the ground, and no one had the courage to stand there anymore.

An iron ball fell from mid-air impartially and hit the back of a prostrate armored soldier, immediately smashing a big hole in the armor, and the rolling iron ball jumped heavily from the ground with the flesh and blood of the man He jumped up, flew to the wall on the other side, and shot back in the firelight to hit another unlucky golden soldier, smashing the base of this man's thigh, which was horrible.

In order to reduce the damage of the Ming army's artillery, under the suggestion of Sun Degong and other Han generals, the Jin army piled many sacks filled with soil on the city wall.These soil bags dissipated the power of iron to a certain extent, so that not many golden soldiers were hit by the iron jumper, most of them were killed by the flowering iron shell, and many injured golden soldiers fell on the top of the city. It is much more difficult to get from this area to the other.

[

Amidst the howling of the roaring cannons, Sun Degong yelled at the top of the city in embarrassment, telling the gunners of the Han army to remember where the Ming army's cannons hit, and then carried the cannons to the places that had already been bombed, so that You can avoid being hit by the Ming army's shelling.

The powerful artillery of the Ming army shocked Sun Degong, and made him even more unbelievable. The Ming army in his memory had never concentrated so many artillery in World War I, and there were dozens of them in the sky.But looking at the posture of the Ming army on the opposite side, it was clear that hundreds of cannons were firing at once, but Mang Gurtai really didn't say anything, the Ming army is really powerful.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, no matter how many cannons the Ming army has, they can't continue to fight. The cannons always have to dissipate heat

Sun Degong couldn't help cheering for himself, and also for the Han army under him.Sure enough, after six rounds were fired, the Ming army's cannons under the city slowly became dumb. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Degong quickly ordered the Han army to move the remaining dozen or so cannons on the city to a safe place, and then quickly shot at the Ming army. fight back.

Only seven or eight of the more than ten cannons fired, and only half of them were able to hit the artillery formation of the Ming army.When the four big iron balls flew over from the top of the city, the artillery array of the Ming army inevitably shuddered.Dong Zhong and Shen Yi of Qianhu immediately ordered people to find out the position of the artillery of the Jin Army, and then let more than a dozen Western light artillery that could still fire fired over.

After the sound of the cannon, the artillery of the Jin Army on the top of the city went silent.The artillery of the Ming army did not blow up those cannons, but it killed many gunners. Even Sun Degong himself was shot in the shoulder by an iron shell, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.

After the shelling was over, Mang Gurtai couldn't wait, and ordered his subordinates to seize the city without asking Shi Dayong for instructions.This time he sent not 500 bannermen, but more than 4000 people rushed towards the city wall.Of these 4000 people, 3000 were the Han people who belonged to his blue flag that Mang Gurtai forcibly recruited last night. If the Ming army did not allow him to conscript the Han people of the other banners, Mang Gurtai could pull up the Han people overnight. Thousands of soldiers rose up.

In the case that the cannons can only cause casualties of the Jin army but cannot break the city gate, there will always be casualties if they forcibly ascend the city. After all, it is not the Han army who has no fighting spirit, but the elite of the Eight Banners who stay in Shenyang.

Victory is just around the corner, and Dayong is definitely unwilling to let the soldiers who came all the way with him fall in front of this last city gate, so he did not interfere with the Han people who conscripted him with the blue flag in Mangurtai as cannon fodder for the siege, but instead tried his best to provide armaments and supplies so that Manggurtai can successfully seize the city.At this time, it is meaningless to care about whether the Han people or the banner people died.

Commanding the capture of the city was Mang Gurtai's confidant General Bai Jia, a general of the Eight Banners capable of writing and martial arts.In order to seize the city in one fell swoop, Mang Gurtai handed over all the banner soldiers brought from Liaoyang to Bai Jia, and also asked the Bai Yala who escaped with him from Shenyang to follow Bai Jia to seize the city.

In short, in order to win the inner city, Mangurtai has given everything he has.If he fails, he has everything.Abilun advised him not to put all his eggs in one basket. Although the artillery fire of the Ming army had damaged the city wall and killed many golden soldiers defending the city, the defenders still had the strength to fight back. Send all of them up now, in case they attacked the city. If you fail, your family will be seriously injured, and there is no room for bargaining with the Ming army.When the Ming army conquered the inner city, nothing would happen to their father and son.However, Mang Gurtai insisted on his own opinion, refused to listen to Ebilun's persuasion, and insisted on taking the inner city before the Ming army, and must not let the Ming army win the great achievement of breaking the city.Abilun was puzzled by Ama's stubbornness, but he could only obey.

Why did Mang Gurtai insist on robbing this great achievement of seizing the inner city?He didn't want to hoard wealth in the inner city, but wanted to get the right to dispose of the more than 3 Eight Banners women and children.These "women", children and men all went out with Hong Tai's army. If they came back and found that their relatives were all in the hands of Mang Gurtai, would they still work for Hong Tai?

Mang Gurtai had a good idea. He was worried that Shi Dayong knew the value of those women and children, so no matter what, he had to let his own people break through the city first, so that he would have more confidence to negotiate with Shi Dayong.He doesn't want half, he wants all.

[

Bai Jia understood his master's thoughts very well, and also knew the value of those Eight Banners women and children in the inner city, so he put on three layers of heavy armor and went all out to break through the city in one fell swoop.

After rushing to the city wall, Bai Jia immediately commanded the Liaoyang Banner soldiers to shoot arrows at the defenders at the top of the city.The archery skills of the Liaoyang Banner Soldiers were very good, and many of the golden soldiers who poked their heads out were shot by them, showing no mercy at all.

It's no wonder that these Liaoyang Banner soldiers who originally belonged to the Zhenglan Banner made a deal, because they all came to Shenyang City with deep-seated hatred.The Hupiyi tragedy has already made them hate the Jin army in Shenyang City, and they will all be trying their best to attack the city to avenge their dead relatives.The wealth in the inner city also made them crazy, and Big Baylor (Mang Gurtai) promised to let them loot for a day after breaking the city.

Hatred and desire for wealth, women, and slaves made the Liaoyang banner soldiers red-eyed, staring at the crenels on the top of the city, and a sharp arrow was always stretched on the bowstring.

After discovering these Liaoyang banner soldiers, the Jin army on the top of the city also immediately organized archers to suppress them.All the bannermen had double armor, only showing a pair of eyes, which made it impossible for the Jin army on the top of the city to take them down, but the unarmored Han people were very easy to shoot and kill.

Hundreds of ladders were erected on the city wall, and the cannon fodder of the Han people was driven up like ants to the top of the city under the urging of the banner soldiers. Countless people were shot down by the golden soldiers on the city, and several people followed closely behind. .

There is a powerful defensive crossbow on the top of the city, and the scene after the arrows are shot is almost unbearable to witness. The arrows of the strong crossbow can easily kill people at close range.

In the face of death, the Han people were timid. They realized that the Jin army on the top of the city was not as strong as the flag soldiers said. If this continues, they are likely to die under the top of the city. Therefore, Their pace became slow, and they would rather be whipped by the bannermen than die.

Seeing this situation, Bai Jia immediately made a decision. He bit the big knife in his mouth and stepped on the ladder to climb to the top of the city wall. Several banner soldiers behind him also carried their bows and arrows on their backs, biting their long knives and climbing up.

The unarmored bannermen ignored the soreness of their arms and shot arrows with all their strength to suppress the top of the city.Many Jin soldiers who want to check the situation only need to show their heads like a bird shot by an arrow and fall from above.However, more golden soldiers hid behind the battlements and threw stones and logs down.Under their resolute counterattack, dozens of brave bannermen were smashed down in mid-air, and Mangurtai, who was watching from afar, was so heartbroken that his facial features squeezed together.

Finally, after paying hundreds of lives, Bai Jia climbed up to the city with a few Mangurtai Ba Yala, and then fought with the golden soldiers on the city.

It is very embarrassing that the enemy and the enemy with pigtails of money are killing each other to the death.

The brave fight between Bai Jia and Bai Yala freed up a large space on the top of the city, and more and more bannermen climbed up and joined the battle group.

Witnessing this situation, Mangurtai's long-lost smile appeared on his face again, but the smile didn't last long before disappearing.

Jin Bing was indeed worthy of being the elite of the Eight Banners, and Sony, Yi Lintai and others were also worthy of being the famous generals of the Eight Banners. After finding out that something was wrong, they immediately mobilized Bai Yala to go to the city.

These Baiyala belonged to the Daishanzheng Red Banner and the Khan Palace, and they were all brave fighters from each banner, the best of the best.Their appearance lifted the spirits of the armored soldiers and Han soldiers on the top of the city. Facing the swarming banner soldiers and Han people, they fought to the death without retreating. The area is gradually shrinking, gradually exhausted, and there is a possibility of retreating at any time.

Bai Jia's back was already full of Jin Bing's arrows. He waved the long knife in his hand and rushed forward, roaring, but retreated again and again.The teeth of the Jin army are really powerful. They alone can block the attack of three or four armored soldiers, causing too many casualties to the banner soldiers who attacked the city.

Seeing that he was about to be driven down the city again by the Jin army, he suddenly heard the roar of the cannon, and then there was a blast above the city, and the stumps and broken arms were thrown everywhere.

The Ming army opened fire, attacking differently, whether it was the Jin soldiers or the banner soldiers of Manggurtai, as well as the Han people under the city, they were all within the coverage of the artillery fire.
