Chapter 92

Live along the river, build along the river.

This is the case for most cities built these days.

When Nuer Gandusi chose the site for his subordinate Wei, he naturally couldn't do without this point.

Two rivers meander out from the Songhua River and flow down smoothly.

The coast has naturally become a place where people gather.

When the army arrived at this time and place, it had already broken through the barriers of the frontier defenses and fortresses on the edge, and truly entered the hinterland of Jiannu.

Compared with the individual Niulu who came to the border areas to take root for the sake of land and resources, it goes without saying that such areas have been developed and operated for some years, and the number of people living in them naturally goes without saying.

The two reconnaissance teams went upstream, and along the way encountered many scattered Jian slaves wandering along the river, either fishing, hunting for opportunities, or digging some wild vegetables.

In a face-to-face meeting, Jiannu either fled in a hurry on horseback, or was caught up without riding a horse.

So, with the local Jiannu personally leading the way, the two reconnaissance teams soon had a harvest.

In other words, even if there is no Jiannu to lead the way, it is very simple to find the two guards that Zhu Youjian targeted.

Because the two guards were built on top of the hill by the river.

And there are a large number of Manchus in and around it.

During the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the Nuer Gandu Division was abolished, and it has been 200 years since the Chongzhen Year.

After 200 years, most of the guards of Nuer Gandusi have been abandoned.

However, places like the Nalin River Guardhouse and the Molin River Guardhouse, which are close to the river and were originally built quite well, naturally couldn't be left to grow grass in place by the Jurchen tribe back then.

As soon as the Han people left, the rest of the guard house consisted of houses and walls, and they were all built of bricks and stones, just like a small castle!Isn't it more exciting than the original grass shed and wooden house?

If you're lucky, you won't even have to decorate the interior, and you might even pick up some things left by the former guards.

What's even better is that the soldiers in the guard are going to garrison the fields.

A large piece of reclaimed cultivated land can also be taken over along the way.

It is also close to the river, and everything that should be there is available, so it is impossible to be abandoned. The big house picked up for nothing, the Jurchen tribe directly moved in with their bags.

So far, the two guards have naturally become the residences of the two Niulu.

Because the resources are good at the beginning, the soldiers are also strong and strong.

It's a pity that this strong soldier and horse went south.

After a day of repairing, under the pressure of knives, the captives made what Zhu Youjian wanted on time, and then the army went straight to the Nalinhe Guard.

Perhaps it was because the reconnaissance team had alarmed Jiannu yesterday. When the army arrived, the reconnaissance team had seen a large number of Manchus or serfs wandering outside the fortress of the guard, but now they were all gone, only the guard on the hill was full of people.

The Black Banner Army spread out on the bank of the river more than a mile away from the guard post, and the black formation made the heads of them pop up violently to look around.

At this time, Zhu Youjian also rode his horse to the front and looked at the guard.

It is obvious that this place has been expanded. There is a circle of masonry buildings and low walls in the center.

There are large wooden houses and thatched sheds on the periphery, and further down the hill where the guardhouse is located, there is a circle of rammed earth and stone walls as tall as the city walls of Ninggu Pagoda.

A large number of archers with bows and arrows or guns are calling to each other behind the stone wall, actively preparing for battle.

It is estimated that there are a lot of troops gathered in it, so all of them are full of fighting spirit, and many of them are still cursing and roaring wildly at the Black Banner Army.

Therefore, Zhu Youjian thoughtfully used the elm cannon as the horn to launch the attack.

"Oh!"

The cannons exploded.

The shouting and cursing on the other side suddenly fell silent.

Then, a large number of prisoners of war rushed forward carrying the baffle with all their strength, because they were the luckiest. The savage said that as long as they carried the baffle and put it back, the battle would have nothing to do with them.

Can hide behind.

The large baffles were pushed forward in a dense manner, and the arrows had no effect at all.

After recovering from the intimidation of the cannon, there was a burst of firecrackers crackling on the outer wall of the guardhouse, and a large amount of smoke rose up. Two or three prisoners fell down, which made them run harder against the baffle.

On the side of the Black Banner Army, the five prototype Francophones obtained from Ningguta moved forward for a certain distance, and several Manchu Wu Zhenchaoha also started firing cannons under the supervision of the Black Banner Army.

Although these Wuzhenchaoha were kept because they were not skilled enough and could not compare with the Han Wuzhenchaoha, but the guard is so big and the distance is only more than 400 meters, so it's over.

"Bang bang bang!"

The cannons fired in unison, one shot hit the stone wall inside the guard, and the other four fell into the house or the open space inside. The inside was already crowded, and a stream of minced meat poured out from the window of the house that was hit, and there was an uproar in the guard immediately. .

Zhu Youjian saw that they couldn't pull out any decent firearms from the guard during the time when the demo Frang machine was loaded, so he simply waved his hand, and more than 40 four-in-one elm guns also began to move forward.

The memories of the other two people in their minds, whether they advocated personal force or were knowledgeable, they all quite recognized the tactic of firepower coverage.

Now that the advantages of firepower and range are in his hands, Zhu Youjian naturally has to taste it.

Moreover, when preparing the stone bombs, Jin Yiwei, the overseer, urged him very hard, but he gouged many prisoners' hands with bleeding blisters, and even Zhu Youjian, who was looking at bloody hands, looked sideways at him.

We all know that His Majesty Chongzhen is the most kind-hearted, how can we see this?

If you don't use it at this time, wouldn't it be a disappointment to everyone?

So the elm cannon advanced 100 meters away from the stone wall, and the Black Banner Army who was in charge of firing the cannon started firing with the help of the baffles dropped by the captives as cover.

The first round was a bit unlucky, and the four-in-one elm cannon directly blew five pieces apart.

But the rest of the elm cannons all showed their power!A burst of stone bombs blasted towards the front of the guard!The already crowded environment inside has been bombed by this round!Suddenly, in the eyes of everyone inside, the safe guardhouse became a cage for lambs to be slaughtered!

The sound of howling and screaming suddenly exploded, and the Jiannu who were still resisting on the city wall seemed to retreat.

How many cannons are there outside!
Could this be a savage?
It was rumored before that Jia Laezhen was just forced to retreat! ?It's not that all the members were killed and then became the rations of the savages! ?

Therefore, by the time of the second round of shelling by the Elm Cannon, a large number of Manchus and serfs had already swarmed out from the small gate at the back of the guard.

The Black Banner Army saw it.

Under the great power of the elm cannon, these people were already certain trophies in the eyes of the Black Banner Army. Jia Lama made an urgent request to Zhu Youjian, and after getting permission, he waved, and all the Black Banner cavalry immediately moved towards those soldiers. Those who try to escape go straight away!

Seeing all this, Xingjia's complexion was a little distorted.

There is no way.

Like Ningguta City before, there was a gap in the strength of the troops, but the savages still had a bunch of cannons, and this guard was even more miserable. They didn't even have a single cannon, so they could only shrink in the city and be beaten.

The most important thing is that there are also a large number of old and weak women and children who have heard of the threat of the savages and come to seek refuge.
Thinking of this, Xing Jia couldn't help gnashing his teeth, his eyes were slightly red, and his face was distorted.

But suddenly a trace of cold was felt on his neck, which brought him back to his senses.

"Why are you blushing?"

Jin Yiwei embroidered the spring knife across his neck and asked in a cold voice, Xingjia's body froze, and the blood that had been a little bit cold suddenly cooled down, and he replied bluntly: "You are refreshed."

Jin Yiwei sneered and put the knife back into its sheath: "It's okay to glow, but you can't shake it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Youjian waved to Xingjia.

Xing Jia naturally apologized and said, "Master Gu Shan?"

"I really don't like it, can I go to persuade you to surrender? Hurry up, if you don't go, the people inside will rush out to fight my black flag army to the death."

 Thanks to 'Flowing Year_Passing Guest' for the reward!
