Daming: Start with an Altar of Luck

Chapter 104 A battle to set the world
"Xu Shuai, the opponent has suffered such a huge loss, yet he still hasn't retreated. Just now, he could clearly see that the army has begun to become chaotic. After killing a group of troops from behind, the situation of the entire army has stabilized again."

Mu Ying didn't go anywhere, she followed Xu Da all the time, and Xu Da didn't arrange tasks for Mu Ying. It was really the generals of Ming Dynasty who heard that it was a war of destroying the country, and many of them followed. This Funing City It's not like when they were besieged in the city of Beijing, they were surrounded by enemies in all directions. Now they only need to garrison one city wall, which is very easy.

Since Xu Da did not arrange missions for Mu Ying, Mu Ying consciously followed Xu Da, learning Xu Da's battlefield experience, and most of the generals who did not have missions also followed Xu Da's side, looking at the people below. The Qing army attacked.

All the generals of the Ming Dynasty on the city wall were extremely relaxed. The defense of the city this time was much easier than that of Beijing before. At that time, there were not many soldiers coming from the early Ming Dynasty. If there was a need to garrison the four walls, no one knew the enemy. The army will launch a general attack from which direction, so everyone has a task.

This time, it was because they were stationed in Qian'an, Lulong, Luanzhou, and Leting respectively before, and finally all led their troops to Funing City. All the soldiers came, so it seemed that there were too many generals without missions. If it wasn't for this It is impossible for Xu Da to gather these people to waste time here.

They have been sent to follow General Chang to go south to search the world. Here, so many people are too wasteful.

"Well, if they are willing to die, let's do it. Let's kill as many as they come. It's just wishful thinking to take down the city where our Ming soldiers are stationed with this simple siege equipment." Guo Xing said without waiting for Xu Da to speak. .

They were all old brothers, and Xu Da didn't say anything when he saw Guo Xing open his mouth. Besides, they were indeed idlers, so let's chat if they had a chat.

"Well, what Guo Xing said is right. If you want to try my Da Ming's artillery, then you have to think about losing troops and destroying generals. Even so, I can't be careless. You must know that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is wrong to be careless and underestimate the enemy."

Xu Da said lightly, and it was also a warning to the Ming generals around him, don't underestimate any enemy, sometimes a slight change on the battlefield can determine the outcome of a war.

All the generals of the Ming Dynasty bowed their hands and said yes.

Xu Da glanced at Mu Ying next to him again, and he had a plan in his mind. This time, as long as these invading enemies were eliminated, Xu Da decided to lead some Ming soldiers back.

As for the candidate for the credit for destroying the country, Xu Da already has a candidate, so the 'Mu Ying' beside him, Xu Da's own credit is already great enough, not to mention the late Ming world, just in the early Ming world, Xu Da Da led the Northern Expedition and drove Emperor Yuan Shun and the others out of the land of China, which was already a great achievement.

Coming to this world and continuously commanding the army to defend and attack and eliminate the enemy, the credit is even more astonishing. If you add a piece of credit for destroying the country at the end, it will not be of much use, it is just icing on the cake. On the contrary, if you give this opportunity to Mu Ying However, Mu Ying's chances of being the commander of the navy will be greatly increased in the future.

Besides, as a courtier, the credit should not be too much. First, if the credit is too great, how to reward?The second is to say, Xu Da has already taken most of the credit, so if you don't give his subordinates a taste of the sweetness, is it because you want to betray your relatives?
That's why Xu Da decided that after eliminating this wave of invading enemies, he was ready to lead his army back. Even Xu Da wanted to return to Yingtian. After all, he had just returned from the Northern Expedition. to this world.

Then another few months passed, and he also wanted to go home and take a look, and at the same time, he wanted to give himself the limelight. Although Daming would definitely continue to conquer other worlds in the future, Xu Da still didn't want to keep putting himself on the peak In words, he has already passed the age of being competitive.

All the people were watching from the city wall. Even if someone watched the ladder rush to the bottom of the wall, they were quickly killed by the grenades thrown down by the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. The city ladder, and the others have no effect at all.

Fortunately, the general stopped after bombarding for a while. The barrel of the continuous attack gun has become hot, and it needs to cool down for a period of time before it can continue firing. Otherwise, continuous firing for a long time will only reduce the service life of the general's gun. Now It's not a critical moment, so naturally it doesn't need to be like this, anyway, after cooling down for a period of time, just continue shooting.

In the Qing army, Wu Sangui let out a long breath when he heard the cannons stop, and sighed in his heart, "It finally stopped".

Just a cup of tea time after the sound of gunfire stopped, Wu Sangui ordered the remaining 7000 Guanning Army to send [-] people to assist in the siege.

As for the remaining [-] Guan Ning troops, they all became supervisory teams, and anyone who dared to retreat would be killed without mercy, no matter whether it was the Han Banner or the Guan Ning Army, they were not allowed to retreat, and Funing City had to be captured.

The moment the artillery stopped, Dorgon, who was in the camp far behind, also let out a long breath. The artillery finally stopped. If the bombing continues, his 4 siege troops still don't know if they will be able to survive in the end. how much back.

You must know that these more than 4 people were all cavalry before. Once they lost arms and legs during the explosion, they would no longer be able to mount their horses to fight.

The loss of a man is the loss of a cavalry!

These are all elites. Although they are not the Eight Banners, they have lost too much. Dorgon is also very distressed. After all, these people will be cannon fodder for the Qing Dynasty in the future. They can't all die at once. If they all die, Isn't it true that many battles have to be fought by his Eight Banners in person.

The muffled sound of grenade explosions kept ringing below the city, and the sound of flintlock gunfire on the city wall never stopped. Fortunately, there was not much white smoke after the gunpowder was upgraded, otherwise the city wall would be filled with white smoke from the burning gunpowder now.

Even if occasionally a few siege ladders were built on the city wall, no one could attack them. They were either disabled by the grenade or killed. After the general's guns stopped roaring, most of the siege troops died in or Wounded by the flintlock.

You must know that being injured on the battlefield is not a trivial matter. They themselves have no armor, and basically there are two holes in the front and the back after being shot. As for those who are slightly stronger, they can still avoid one or two, but the shooting density is too high. , If you can dodge one shot, you can't dodge other shots, so the number of people who can touch the city is only one or two out of ten.

As his subordinates kept coming to report their injuries, Wu Sangui's entire face was so gloomy that water could drip out.

No matter how confused he was, he understood that there must be something wrong with the Ming soldiers on the city wall, but he was now in a dilemma. Behind him, the Eight Banners cavalry led by Duoduo were overwhelming the formation.

At this time, Wu Sangui was one head and two big. At the same time, he regretted not dismantling the cannons from Shanhaiguan in order to hurry. , How could they allow such arrogance on the city wall on the opposite side.

And the powerful firecrackers also caused Wu Sangui a headache. It's not that there are no firecrackers in his Shanhaiguan, but those firecrackers are not only slow to fill, but also have average power. They are not as powerful as the firecrackers on the city wall.

"My lord, do you want to postpone the siege?"

"No, we have already lost so many soldiers. We must take Funing City today. Only by taking Funing City can the army go south smoothly. Let the Supervising Team do a good job of supervision. Anyone who dares to retreat and escape will be killed without mercy."

Wu Sangui said with a ferocious face, seeing Wu Sangui's appearance, his subordinates didn't dare to persuade him anymore, so they could only go down and finish what Wu Sangui had told him.

The siege has been unsuccessful, resulting in the loss of soldiers and generals. Some soldiers have already started to retreat. Unfortunately, they were beheaded by the supervisor team following them before they ran far. They have killed more than a hundred people before stopping this retreat. Escape the storm.

All the Qing and Han Banners and the Guan Ning army rushed towards the city wall with gritted teeth and red eyes. As time went by, more and more siege equipment was placed on the city wall.

No matter how fast the grenade was thrown, some people started to slowly climb up the city wall against the wooden escape. Unfortunately, even if someone came up, what was waiting for them was Daming's swords and guns, and it was useless if the number of people coming up was too small.

Just when the situation was about to fall into a stalemate, "Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~"

The General's Cannon fired again, and for a while there seemed to be a fault in the siege army. The explosive shells in the middle exploded continuously, clearing out a lot of densely packed people, which also slowed down the progress of the Manchu siege.

And hearing the sound of cannons, not only Wu Sangui's complexion in the Manchu and Qing camp was not good, but Dorgon's complexion also became gloomy.

Dorgon, who could still sit in the handsome tent, can't sit still now. The siege has been nearly an hour, but there is no progress at all, and a lot of manpower has been lost. Dorgon led his guards towards Go to where Wu Sangui is.

At the same time, Dorgon ordered the Mongolian Eight Banners and Guanning cavalry to approach together, and all gathered together.

"Wu Sangui, what's going on, I gave you so many people, you can't even take down Funing City, and you lost so many people?"

As soon as Dorgon came to Wu Sangui's camp, he couldn't help asking angrily.

"My lord, the firearms on the opposite side of Funing City are mighty. I have tried my best, but there are too few soldiers who can survive to the bottom of the city. Even if the siege ladder is erected, there are too few people to attack, and it is impossible to occupy the top of the city. "

Wu Sangui suppressed the anger in his heart and explained to Dorgon.

In fact, the anger in Wu Sangui's heart at this time is no less than that of Dorgon. You must know that in order to prevent the Han Banner from retreating, he went up to the Guan Ning army with more than 7000 people. Now the casualties of the Guan Ning army are no less than Han Banner casualties.

"Hmph, if it wasn't for your dedication to Shanhaiguan, you would not be able to spare you today."

Dorgon also understood that if Wu Sangui hadn't ordered his subordinates to go up to more than 1 people today, Han Qi would have retreated long ago, and saying this was nothing more than venting his anger.
