Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 921

The artillery cart behind the wall was hiding in a blind spot, and it was difficult for the artillery group of the Ming army to strike, but the archers of the Jin army behind the artillery group could lob it.

Facing the sudden attack of cannon stones, the archers of the Jin Army behind the wall immediately became chaotic and scattered like frightened ants. The general of the Jin Army Wu Zhimao shouted anxiously, "Keep the formation, everyone returns to their original positions, and those who leave without permission will be killed! "

The flat land behind the closed wall is not wide, just like the closed wall, there are only a thousand steps, and the Jin army can actually walk wherever they want to disperse.

After hearing the roar of the generals of the Golden Army, the scattered Golden Army regrouped, but shadows did appear in the sky again, and large pieces of cannon stones shot towards them rapidly.

The soldiers of the Ming army attacking in front of the pass suddenly felt the pressure on their heads lighten, and the rain of arrows like locusts thinned out. Ming general Huang Tianlei hid behind a shield car, and couldn't help but look up at the sky. In addition to the cannon stones thrown from the closed wall, after countless cannon stones were thrown into the closed wall, he regained his energy for an instant, and instead of avoiding it, he stood up and shouted with his veins bursting out, "Kill!"

The soldiers of the Ming army who were suppressed by the bows and arrows of the Jin army burst out immediately, rushing out from behind the shield chariot one after another, shouting to kill and shaking the sky, climbing along the equipment.

A small flag of the Ming army, who saw his comrades halfway up the climbing ladder, was smashed by a thigh-thick wood and fell down. He overwhelmed several comrades, cursed in his mouth, suddenly bit his saber, and held Shield, he climbed up the ladder. On the ladder next to him, people kept falling down, screaming endlessly, but he turned a deaf ear to it, and just used his hands and feet to climb up.

He knew that stones might be thrown down from the top of the city at any moment, gold juice would be poured, and a piece of wood would roll down from above. He held his shield at an angle, and the wood would hit it and fall from his side, making his arm numb and startled. Break out in a cold sweat.

The little flag was almost smashed down, but after he stabilized his body, he didn't stop, and continued to climb up, clinging to the ladder, but just as he was close to the top, he was suddenly stabbed by a long spear. His arm was sore and numb, he blocked it with a shield, and the spear pierced against his left rib, and he was almost thrown off the city wall by the barrel.

Xiaoqi was secretly in danger, he was relieved that he didn't come, the golden army above pulled back and stabbed again, at the very moment, Xiaoqi couldn't help roaring, and suddenly flew the shield in his hand to the top, smashing the golden army's face, and Just when Jin Jun was in a hurry to block, he grabbed the top of the wall, held the bitten saber in one hand, and then leaped vigorously, knocked down the spearman with one swing of the saber, and jumped onto the top of the wall.

Seeing him ascending the top of the city, the Ming army below burst into cheers. However, the small flag that jumped onto the city was faced with four or five weapons in an instant, and slashed at him head-on. As soon as he rolled, the Jin army attacked and cut to the ground, while he half-kneeling and pulled his saber, and cut another Jin soldier's thigh, Xiao Qi was about to get up to make up the knife, which ended up the guy's life, when a long spear behind him shot directly. Stabbed him in the back, causing him to lunge forward to his death.

On a small hill in the distance, under the banner of Dazhu, He Tengjiao saw that the artillery group of the Ming army began to bombard the pass. As soon as the golden army's arrow rain thinned out, the infantry attacking the pass began to climb the pass wall.

"Old He Ge, the Wuwei Army has lost a lot, and the attack will soon be exhausted!" Qin Liangyu next to him is worthy of being a veteran, and he is very good at timing, "Now is the time for the most elite Zhenwu Battalion to attack. "

The 5000 members of Huang Tianlei's department suffered nearly a thousand casualties after being hit by cannon stones and bows and arrows.

Although the bow and arrow phalanx of the Jin army was disturbed by the artillery formation of the Ming army, they began to attack Guancheng continuously, but after all, this army suffered too much loss and almost lost its vigor. Qin Liangyu predicted this, so he was not exhausted in Huang Tianlei's department. Before, He Tengjiao was reminded to put the Zhenwu Battalion into the battlefield to push the morale of the Ming army to a climax, instead of waiting for Huang Tianlei to retreat before launching the next wave of attacks.

He Tengjiao listened to Qin Liangyu's words, thought for a while, and said to the flags and drums beside him: "Send the order, let the Zhenwu Battalion attack!"

The drum sounded on the top of the mountain, and the flag representing the Zhenwu Battalion waved forward, and immediately fell into the eyes of Li Dingguo on the hillside.

For a moment, there was only a "chuckle" sound, Li Dingguo drew his sword in his hand, pointed at the sky obliquely, and then shouted loudly: "Wu Zhongerlang, break through the wall and save Du Town!"

The five thousand soldiers on the hillside all stood up in an instant, and the main force of the Five Loyalists was besieged in Hezhou. As a member of the Five Loyalists, they broke through the barrier and saved their comrades from fire and water.

"Break through the wall and save Dudu Town!"

It didn't take too much mobilization, just a word, and the five thousand sons of men raised their weapons and shouted loudly.

"Kill!" Li Dingguo moved forward with his saber, and the Zhenwu Camp after a rest, immediately shouted, like a mudslide rolling down a mountain, like an avalanche, like hot magma erupting from a volcano, with an unstoppable force, Rush down the hillside and kill the wall.

As the Zhenwu camp rushed out of the mountains, the momentum of the Ming army outside the pass was at its peak, and the shouts of killing immediately went straight to the sky, and waves slapped the wall of the pass.

In Fotu Pass, Wu Sangui, who had retreated to the second line and handed over the command to Hu Guozhu, heard the terrifying momentum, raised the curtain and came out of the big tent, and a general was walking towards him, "My lord, the Ming army's offensive is fierce. I can't stand it anymore."

Wu Sangui had just stepped out of the camp when he saw artillery stones flying into the pass, making big holes on the ground. A single artillery stone killed several Jin army archers, and the Jin army archers faced the continuous falling artillery stones. Still have the guts to stand behind the gate and shoot arrows.

Seeing this, Wu Sangui heard the shouts of killing on the wall, and knew that without the suppression of the archers, the Ming army had already scaled up the city wall on a large scale. Go directly to the city."

Seeing the chaotic scene in the pass, Wu Sangui ordered one after another, "The reserve team will immediately go to the pass with the king and beat down the Ming army."

After Wu Sangui pressed his saber, Wang Guanqiang walked away, but Wang Pingfan hugged his waist and said anxiously: "My lord is in danger!"

The Jin army had enough reserves, and the Ming army artillery vehicles bombarded the pass in order to attack the archers of the Jin army and interfere with the reserve team going to the pass.

Wu Sangui glanced at the falling cannon stones, his eyes sharpened, he broke Wang Pingfan's arm, and waved his hand resolutely, "Stop talking nonsense, go to the gate!"

Seeing this, the generals could only follow Wu Sangui, risking being hit by artillery stones, and climbed up the wall from the slope behind the wall.

After the Zhenwu Battalion participated in the research, the morale of the Ming army reached its peak, and countless Ming soldiers rushed to the pass wall. Li Dingguo shot a golden soldier flying with a big gun.

He rushed to the top of the city, pulled up a banner of the golden army, and then threw it down on the top of the city. The soldiers behind him immediately planted a bright flag on the wall, and the Ming army immediately cheered even louder. While continuously expanding the results of the battle, suddenly a large group of golden soldiers rushed up to the wall and immediately stopped the retreat.

When the Ming army formed a large formation outside the Guan, He Tengjiao suddenly put down the binoculars, "No, Wu Ni has gone to the city!"

Wu Sangui's big banner appeared at the pass, and the Ming army's offensive was blocked, but there was such an open area before the pass. The Ming army's current investment in troops has reached the limit, and the pass is almost secret. Troops don't work either.

He Tengjiao also understands that Qin Liangyu's plan is to rely on a burst of energy. If the Jin army can't hold back, the pass will be broken. But if it can't hold back, the Ming army will have to retreat today, so he saw Wu Sangui go up. City, my heart tightened immediately.

"Old He Ge, let the white-armed soldiers and elite magicians attack the hills on both sides of the pass!"

The old matriarch is still calm, unable to deploy before the pass, but can attack on the hills on both sides.
