A small soldier of the frontier army in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 478 Indiscriminate Bombing
The movements of the Ming army, regardless of Huang Taiji in Rufeng Mountain City, or the Qing army in Songshanling and Huangtuling, are all paying close attention.

On the top of Songshan Ridge stands a tall hollow enemy tower, and around the hollow enemy tower are dense Qing army camps with deep trenches and deep walls.All the flags flying on the mountain are blue, or blue flags with red borders.

On the enemy platform, two huge gold-woven dragon banners were erected. Under the dragon banners, stood the eight-banner manchurian inlaid blue banner, Prince Zheng Jierhalang, Zhenglan banner bannerman, and Prince Su Hauge.In particular, Hauge's gold-woven dragon banner is a prince-like three-pointed dragon banner with a three-sided flame and silver top, which is very gorgeous.

Behind the two of them, Zhangjing, the most elite Baya soldier in the banner, stood in charge of guarding the banner of Longzhu.There are also a large number of officers and generals such as Meilezhangjing and Jialaerzhen in the banner standing, and they all follow the two princes to look at the Ming army's position.

Around the enemy's platform, there are also capable Ba Ya La soldiers of the Second Banner, each of them has a bright helmet and armor, and the excellent armor leaves are exposed, all of which are very thick.There are huge heart-protecting bronze mirrors on the front and back chests, and a dazzling red-tasseled flame side flag is planted on the back.

These warriors were all tall and strong, and they carried heavy weapons in their hands, either heavy swords, sledgehammers, or long-handled pick knives.The bows and arrows on his back are full of strong bows with several stones, which can penetrate heavy armor at a distance of dozens of steps.

They stood vigilantly. Even though they were wearing thick and heavy armor, they stood still in their positions in the hot weather.

Jierhalang and Hauge both had binoculars awarded by Huang Taiji. In the binoculars, it could be clearly seen that the artillery battalion of the Ming army was about to bombard the defenders of Huangtuling.

Taking back the binoculars, Hauge said displeasedly: "Prince Zheng, why did you prevent me from leading the warriors to attack? Look at the formation of the Ming army."

He pointed to the distance below the mountain, and the Ming army on the upper left shouted angrily: "If you lead thousands of Qing cavalry to attack from behind and from the side, the Ming army will be in chaos and stop the attack on Huangtuling."

Jierhalang earnestly persuaded: "Prince Su, Hong Chengchou is cautious in deploying troops. He will not fail to consider this. Look at their right side. There are at least tens of thousands of people guarding them. And my garrison in Songshanling is guarding Huangtuling. The army is united as one, and it will not be too late for me to attack after the Huangtuling defenders give a signal. We can also give the Ming army a hard blow from the side when they are tired of attacking the mountain, and it is too late now."

Haoge snorted coldly: "Not in time? Look, the Ming army is coming, under the banner of Wu Sangui and the others, right? There are so many civilians behind them, are they going to dig trenches between Songshan Ridge and Huangtu Ridge? If they don't attack again, They've dug the trenches."

Jierhalang still shook his head: "The boundary between Songshan Ridge and Huangtu Ridge is wide. How can it be so easy to dig a trench to cut it off? Prince Su, let's wait a little longer. We will attack when the sun rises and they are exhausted. It will definitely work wonders.”

No matter what Ren Haoge said, Ji Erhalang was just being cautious and stubborn. Haoge was angry, but there was nothing he could do.

Although the two banners are stationed in Songshanling, but because of Hauge's reckless temper, according to Huang Taiji's will, Songshanling's strategy announcement is mainly based on Jierhalang.At this time, the military discipline of the Qing army was strict, and no matter how domineering Hauge was in the Eight Banners, he would not dare to disobey the military order and his father's order, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Looking at Ji Erhalang's face that was not filled with oil and salt, Hauge managed to suppress the anger in his heart, and then raised the binoculars to look at Huangtu Ridge.

Seeing that the artillery battalion of the Ming Army had been set up, Hauge suddenly felt a little gleeful. The first line of defense in Huangtuling was mostly guarded by the Eight Banners Han and Korean troops. Already!"

……

At this time on the Huangtu Ridge.

There is an enemy tower on the main ridge, which is called the Dongling tower. The Dongling tower is a two-story hollow enemy tower, five feet high, eighteen feet wide, with arrow window crenels, and the ring towers are all made of large stone masonry.

Above the tower, there are more gold-woven dragon banners here, including the Eight Banners, Manchuria, Zhengbai Banner dragon banners, inlaid white banner dragon banners, and some Han army banners with real dragon banners with solid mountain foreheads.These dragon banners are not much different from the main dragon banners of the Manchurian banner, the only difference is that the Han army has a moon, while the Mongolian and Manchurian dragon banners do not have a moon.

In addition to these Qing flags, there is also a tall Taiji flag on the platform, which is the banner of the North Korean coach. At this time, the leader of the North Korean government is You Yizheng Kim Zidian.

The North Korean government is similar to the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty. It has a leader and a left and a right, both of whom are of the first grade.After the Bingzilu Rebellion, the pro-Ming Xiren Party of the Joseon Dynasty lost power, and the pro-Qing Luo Party gained power. The representative figure is You Yizheng Jin Zidian.

Jin Zidian was a political rightist, and his son-in-law Xing'an Jun Li Yu was the great-grandson of King Zhongzong and cousin of King Guanghai, and he also had the support of the Qing Dynasty, so he was very powerful in North Korea.

In this battle of Jinzhou, Jin Zidian thought it was a good opportunity to show his loyalty to the Qing Dynasty, so he volunteered to lead his army.There are many elite soldiers and powerful generals of the Korean country under his command, including generals, deputy generals, participating generals, chief leaders, and deputy leaders.

Similar to Ming Dynasty, North Korea is also rich in culture and military, and soldiers have no status in North Korea.Although Li Renzhan, the general who led the army, was also a member of the first rank, he was ordered around by Jin Zi and treated like a slave.

Jin Zidian was in his fifties at this time, with a clean appearance, and he was wearing the Korean official uniform of a first-rank official.This official uniform is quite similar to the official uniform of the Ming Dynasty, but the belt is pulled up, which is the same as the skirts of Korean women.

Beside him, stood some domestic staff, all of them were wearing robes, cotton soft-soled high-waisted boots, and big-brimmed hats on their heads, accompanied by some generals.

Like all the North Korean officers and generals, Jin Zidian was very anxious at the moment. He just looked at the Ming army positions far below the mountain, and could vaguely see that their artillery formations had already been erected and were about to fire.As for the first line of defense in Huangtuling, they have a lot of troops under their command.

In the same way, there are several Gushan Ezhens of the Han Army Banner, such as Zhengbai Banner Gushan Ezhen Shitingzhu, Xianghong Banner Gushan Ezhen Liu Zhiyuan, Zhenglan Banner Gushan Ezhen Zu Zerun, Xiangbai Banner Gushan Erzhen Wu Shoujin several people.

The Ming army is about to attack the mountain, and our own side should also fire.

But it was useless for them to worry, because Huangtuling was in charge of Dorgon, the leader of the Eight Banners Manchuria Zhengbai Banner, and Duoduo, the leader of the Bordered White Banner.Even Rao Yubaile Abatai, the weight of words is higher than them.

Hearing everyone shouting urgently, and looking at the Ming army at the foot of the mountain, Dorgon remained calm, and just asked Kong Youde beside him: "King Gongshun, how far can my Shenwei Great General Cannon of the Qing Dynasty hit?"

Kong Youde's Red Banner troops were not stationed in Huangtuling, but part of his artillery was stationed here.He cared about his artillery, and came in a hurry when he heard that the Ming army was attacking Huangtuling.

Kong Youde glanced at Shi Tingzhu and the others, and snorted coldly in his heart. He, Shang Kexi, and Geng Zhongming were newcomers to the Qing Dynasty.Contradictions with Shi Tingzhu, Ma Guangyuan and other old voters are not small. In the Han army banner, the old and new disputes are equally fierce.

Without looking at the trembling flesh on Shi Tingzhu's face, Kong Youde said, "It can hit four miles."

Dorgon's eyes lit up, and then he said: "Can you hit the target?"

Kong Youde pondered for a long time, then shook his head and said, "It's difficult, if within three miles, there is some certainty, the rest is nothing more than an empty shot."

Shi Tingzhu said angrily to Kong Youde: "King Shun, before the fight started, you said you were not sure. You are boosting other people's ambitions and destroying your own prestige! Don't you just watch them shoot and your brothers get bombed?"

Kong Youde smiled and said: "Old Shi, three miles away, the artillery battalion is not sure, it's a waste of medicine!"

What Shi Tingzhu wanted to say, Dorgon waved his hand: "Don't waste gunpowder and cannons, wait for the Ming army to enter within three miles before firing. The walls of our army's stronghold are strong, and it is not so easy for the Ming army to use artillery to fight. "

Shi Tingzhu had no choice but to say: "Yes."

He glanced at Kong Youde angrily.

Jin Zidian was anxious, but he still flattered Dorgon and said: "The king of Ruijun sees thousands of miles away, this is the old saying of seeking the country, good steel must be used on the blade."

Dorgon laughed, and said: "You Yizheng came to help from thousands of miles away, and the friendship between Qing and North Korea will be brought closer."

At this time, they were all speaking Chinese. The upper class in Korea was proud to speak Chinese, and most of the upper class in Qing Dynasty could speak Chinese. After all, they used to be one of the ruling tribes of Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, the Manchurian language is vulgar and extremely difficult to learn. Otherwise, there would be very few people who would learn it in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and the species would almost become extinct.Therefore, at this time, the upper echelons of the Qing Dynasty, such as the Han and Manchu, communicated with each other, or communicated with the officials of the Korean state, and most of them used Chinese.

Seeing Jin Zidian and Dorgon talking and laughing at Yan Yan, Shi Tingzhu cursed in a low voice: "Korea dog, flatterer!"

When the North Korean officials behind Jin Zidian heard this, their faces all changed, but Jin Zidian acted as if nothing had happened, with a slight smile on his face, showing a refined demeanor.But he scolded Shi Tingzhu contemptuously in his heart: "Hu dog, get rid of Chinese clothes, money rat tail, arrow sleeves and Hu clothes, dogs, pig tail slaves!"

Regarding the land of the Central Plains, the hearts of the Korean monarchs and ministers were complicated. Politically, they had to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but culturally, they were full of admiration for the Han culture.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea regarded the Qing subjects at that time as the slaves of the big country, the slaves of the Qing Dynasty, and the land of the barbarians, while the Korean family regarded itself as a small China.When Yuan Shikai went to North Korea as an envoy, he was also scolded as a bulldog by Empress Min of Ming Cheng.

Jin Zidian at this time is such an ambivalence.

Under Dorgon's strong pressure, the Qing army in Huangtuling watched the Ming army set up artillery, anxiously waiting for the fate to come.

……

"The Nanmanzi is about to attack the mountain, give Ben Jiala some energy!"

A Jialazhangjing in his forties, dressed in fine white armor with red trim, patrolled along the Niangniang Temple tower to the wall of the village, roaring at the Han and Dynasty defenders behind the wall from time to time.

This Jia Lazhangjing has a big pancake face, a flat nose, and several scars on his face.

Behind him, followed by a large group of elite vests, all with bright and dark armor, with a strong hostility and arrogance on their faces.

There were a few more Niu Luzhang Jing, one of them had a thin face and two mustaches, but he was Niu Luzhang Jing Niu Gulu, and the other was Niu Luzhang Jing Ning Erjia.

They, Jiala, suffered heavy losses when they attacked Shun Township Fort, and the elite vest soldiers of Bayala in Jiala suffered a lot.Although Abatai later attacked Shunxiangbao, which also proved that Yan Zhajiala was indeed known as a warrior, but they lost their soldiers and lost their generals. It is good that they were not punished, so they don't want to be promoted.

In the 11th year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the bandits, but Yan Zha, the Jiala, did not enter the customs. The Qing army respected military merits. Without fighting, they could not obtain military merits and promote their official positions.

So after so many years, Wang Dou has been promoted from the defense of the past to the left commander, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, and won the title of Earl Zhongyong. This Yan Zha has always been Jiala.His subordinate Niu Gulu, not to mention Ning Erjia, has always been Niu Luzhangjing.

Fortunately, in this battle of Jinzhou, Yan Zha also fought with the army. After so many years of management, his Jiala has returned to its former glory.Yan Zha naturally became ambitious and wanted to make great contributions in the Battle of Jinzhou and improve his official position.

In addition to Yan Zha, a Jiala Qing army, there is also a Jiala army from the Zhengbai Banner of the Han army, and a participating army from the Korean army, totaling about [-] soldiers.They guarded a walled moat about two miles long.

However, the main forces defending the wall were mainly the soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner of the Han Army and the soldiers of the Korean State. Yan Zha, the Jiala, was used to supervise the battle, and it was used for hand-to-hand combat after the Ming army invaded the wall.

Along the undulating wall of the village, behind the earthen and stone walls, you can constantly see Han and Korean soldiers holding bird guns and three-eyed guns. Only a few of them are holding shields, broadswords, bows, arrows and spears.Others used weapons such as crossbow bolts, trebuchets, and cannonballs.

In particular, the Korean soldiers were the main force using trebuchets.

There is also Dewu Zhenhachao's artillery battalion, along the mountain defense line, at some favorable terrain on the wall, some Hongyi three-pound guns, and Frang machine guns are arranged.Especially on the platform of the Niangniang Temple, four Hongyi three-pound guns were arranged.

These sergeants, the Han army and the full soldiers dress no differently. The armored soldiers also wear cotton armor. The armored sergeants of the Han army who are facing the white flag are all white and dark armor.

As for the Korean soldiers, their armor is very similar to the Eight Banners armor and the Ming armor.Of course, the armor of the Qing army was derived from the armor of the Ming army. Both the Qing and the Dynasties were actually deeply influenced by the culture of the Central Plains.

These Korean generals, the high-level generals, mostly wore bright red long-body cotton armor, with a lot of iron leaves embedded on the arms and upper body of the armor, and the armor leaves were densely packed, like medals.Ordinary soldiers wear short padded armor, also bright red in color, with only copper bubbles nailed on the surface of the clothes, and there are no nail leaves inside and out.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha patrolled all the way, acting as a master, shouting and roaring at the Han and North Korean soldiers beside him, kicking and beating them from time to time.

People who are beaten and scolded, either dare not speak out, or obediently obey, here the Pashiku, Niuluzhangjing of the Han Army Banner, or the deputy lieutenant, sergeant and other officers in the North Korean army should also treat them I didn't see it, they didn't want to offend the genuine Tartar head of the Eight Banners for some small soldiers.

A North Korean soldier was kicked and was furious. After Yan Zha swaggered past, he muttered in Korean: "Savage!"

Yan Zha turned his head abruptly, looking at him for a moment, the scars on his face trembled, making him look even more vicious and ugly.

……

In the Ming army's position, everyone breathed and condensed their breath, and the surrounding fields were quiet. Finally, Hong Chengchou took a deep breath and said, "Let's fire!"

Fu Ying Chong responded: "Yes!"

With a wave of his hand, he said in a majestic manner: "Start testing the cannon!"

A gunner lit the fuse of a twelve-pound cannon. Everyone looked nervous and focused on the hissing and sparking fuse.

The lead wire was sparking, hissing and burning, and suddenly the fire door flashed, and then there was a loud noise, and thick gunpowder smoke was ejected from the thick muzzle.In the light of the fire, the gun body shook violently, and a large black iron bullet rushed out of the gun chamber and flew towards the Qing army's position in the distance.

For a while, both the Ming and Qing Dynasties looked at the flight direction and landing place of the cannonball.

……

With a gloomy face, Yan Zha asked the Korean soldier in Manchu, "What did you just say?"

The vest soldiers behind him also looked at this soldier with cruel eyes.

The Korean soldier was so frightened that he knelt down in a hurry, yelled something in Korean, and kowtowed repeatedly, and soon his forehead was dripping with blood.

The Korean soldiers next to them all looked sad and indignant, as if the rabbit died and the fox felt sad.

Seeing the faces of these people, Niu Luzhang Jingniu Gulu frowned, seeing that the North Korean military officers looked over with displeasure on their faces.He stroked his whiskers, and persuaded: "Master Yan Zha, why should you be angry with a small slave? Right now, the Ming army is about to attack the mountain, so peace should be the best..."

Just as he was talking about this, he suddenly heard the sound of a cannon from the Ming army's position, and the artillery shells roared towards him. Niu Gulu screamed: "The Ming army fired a cannon!"

Hastily hid his body behind the stone wall.

Like the wind blowing ears of wheat, all the Han troops, Korean troops, and Manchu troops on the wall of the stronghold hurriedly evaded.Even Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha, ignoring the impolite North Korean soldiers, quickly dodged behind the stone wall and leaned his body against the wall.

But he heard the shells whistling past, over the wall of the mountain village, and went downhill behind the mountain.

With a bang, it hit a mound of soil at the bottom of the slope, stirring up a large piece of soil, and finally rolled and jumped, rolled down the slope, and stopped motionless in front of a stone house.

Rows of stone and wooden houses were also built behind the mountain, as the place where the defenders stationed troops and hid their soldiers.

Seeing that there was no threat from the artillery of the Ming army, there were cheers on the wall of the village.

Najia Lazhang Jingyanzha laughed wildly, pointed at the Ming army artillery formation and cursed: "Haha, Hangou's cannons are pure nonsense!"

The Ming army's artillery shells made the defenders on the tower of the Niangniang Temple very confident. There were all kinds of cheers, laughter and curses, and all kinds of songs were sung.

While they were celebrating, the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion adjusted its artillery speed again, and aimed more carefully at the Qing army's position in Huangtuling.

With a sullen face, Fu Yingchong waved his hand again, and his Chinese drummer blew a sharp swan sound.There were lightning and thunder, several artillery formations, the first wave of artillery roared deafeningly, and thick white smoke spewed out in large strands, covering the artillery positions in front.

Such a loud noise startled the cows, horses and cattle behind the hills to neigh, and even the Ming army formation behind them caused a commotion.Hong Chengchou and other people who felt the power of the artillery at close range, their hearts beat violently, the Hongyi cannon is so powerful.

The Qing army at the Niangniang Temple and other village walls smiled stiffly, watching how many huge shells came towards them.

"what!"

Many people screamed.

"boom!"

A big iron ball weighing more than ten kilograms came whistling and shot at a wall of a village.

This wall of the village is a stone wall, which is only made of stones, which is incomparable with the hardness of the city wall.

Amidst the loud noise, the stone wall collapsed, and several North Korean soldiers hiding in the area were buried underneath.

They were squatting, and all kinds of stones rolled down on their heads. As soon as they screamed in despair, they were crushed into meat balls, leaving only muffled noise and crying, and internal organs and blood continuously flowing out of the pile of stones.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha quickly ran towards the tower, these stone walls and earth walls are too unsafe, it is better to be inside the tower.

He was running nimbly, even though he was wearing several layers of armor, he still ran fast, behind him, all the cows, Zhang Jing, and the vest soldiers also ran with the adults trembling with fear.

There was a sharp and ear-piercing whistling sound, it sounded like a kettle was boiling, and when it was boiling extremely hot, it made people feel upset when they heard it, and they wanted to plug their earholes tightly.

Is this sound front or back?Before Yan Zha was sure, amidst the loud bang, the stone wall behind Yan Zha suddenly exploded, and a big iron ball weighing more than twenty kilograms broke through the wall with the momentum of sweeping everything.

In an instant, it smashed a few big rocks into sharp pieces and swept across, creating the effect of a tiger crouching cannon.

Puff puff puff puff puff puff puffs of blood are shot out from the front, back, or heads of the vest soldiers with white flags behind you.Even the fine armor on their bodies couldn't stop the sharp shooting of such stones, and six or seven rolled over on the spot.

boom!A large iron ball weighing more than [-] kilograms blasted the stone wall, and the strong impact made the stone wall in this section into flying stones.Many people were not shot by the gravel, but were also hit by big rocks one after another. Like sacks, they fell out in different postures, spurting blood from all their mouths, and breaking bones loudly.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha fell to the ground, and a bloody head was placed in front of him. The head helmet fell off, revealing the slender money rattail and pigtail at the back of his head. His eyes were wide open, full of fear and disbelief.

Yan Zha felt that this head was a little familiar. Thinking about it carefully, wasn't it the vest soldier Mierqi who was famous for his bravery in his armor?

Next to the head of this Miergi, there is still an arm, and it is not known whose it is.

Suddenly Yan Zha felt something was wrong with the helmet, stretched out his hand and pulled it out, pulling out a lot of large and small intestines, whose is it?

The well-informed Jialazhang Jingyanzha didn't care about the human head and intestines, and suddenly felt that his butt was wrong. Could it be that his butt was missing a piece of meat?

It's okay, the warrior of the Qing Dynasty, Jialazhangjing of the Eight Banners Manchuria, what's the fuss about having a little piece of meat on his butt?Even if there is a small stone in it, it doesn't matter very much.

Hearing the sharp sound of swans coming from the Ming army's position, Jia Lazhang Jingyan jumped up quickly and ran towards the tower. The flow of people behind him was much less than before.

As soon as I returned to the enemy's platform, I heard the deafening sound of artillery shells, and another round of artillery shells whizzed in. There was an endless explosion like thunderbolts, and the large iron balls fired continuously hit the stone walls and earth walls of the defense line.The sound of rumbling and collapsing continued, and the walls of the village near the platform of the Niangniang Temple were constantly being hit.

These earth walls and stone walls are quite simple, as long as they hit them, they will collapse.

The earth wall was okay, but the stone wall was hit, and it was a disaster. The shells brought a rain of stones and swept across the surrounding guarding Qing army.There were screams and screams, and the Qing soldiers were in chaos, not knowing what to do.

Especially the Han army and the Koryo army, before they surrendered, they often saw artillery bombarding each other.They are like ants on a hot pot, just running around in groups, but they can't find a safe place.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha was still in shock. He hid in a safe place inside the enemy platform, feeling that big iron bullets were constantly bombarding his enemy platform.Amidst the rumbling sound, the entire enemy platform seemed to be shaking violently, and gravel and thick dust kept falling down, hitting his helmet with clinking sounds.

Fortunately, the enemy tower built by the Ming people is extremely strong, and the bombardment of the shells will not cause the enemy tower to collapse.Yan Zha breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he notice the appearance of the people waiting beside him, all of them were ashamed, and many of them were dripping with blood, and he didn't know where they had been tricked.

Especially that Niu Luzhang Jingning Erjia, whose left arm was empty, where the bone was broken, the white bones were exposed, and there were some red shreds of meat left on it.

Ning Erjia couldn't help trembling, he clutched his broken arm, big drops of cold sweat fell from his forehead, it turned out that the arm just now belonged to him.

Everyone in the enemy station was stunned, including Jialazhangjing of the Han army who had stayed in the station and did not go out, and the leaders of the Korean army.The fierce artillery fire of the Ming army blinded them all of a sudden. Following Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha's gaze, they noticed Niu Luzhang Jingning Erjia's appearance.

Everyone yelled: "Lord Ning Erjia is injured, bandage him quickly."

Another person noticed Yan Zha's buttocks: "Ah, Master Jiala's buttocks are injured, please help quickly..."

……

In the artillery formation of the Shenji Battalion, the gunners of each artillery immediately cleaned the barrels of the guns with wet wool sticks after the artillery was fired, and heard the continuous sound of water vapor, steaming out.

After cleaning the barrel, the loader filled in a new propellant charge, and at the same time a gunner's thumb pressed on the fire door to prevent the airflow from blowing back and igniting the uncleaned embers.The iron bullets were sent in for compaction, and a new igniter rope was installed at the fire door, ready to aim and shoot.

Since the four-wheel gun carriage is fixed by piling, the artillery recedes less, and it is quite easy to aim again. Moreover, the artillery is divided into several groups to fire, making it easier to align.

Fu Yingchong roared: "Blow the fuck up hard!"

Amidst the sharp sound of swans, the artillery positions of the Ming army made a deafening sound of artillery again, thick smoke filled the air, and large and heavy iron bullets whizzed out, rushing towards the positions of the Qing army.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha shouted angrily: "Here we go again!"

This wave of Ming Army Hongyi cannons used groups of bullets, one for each large shell, accompanied by more than a dozen small shells, and the momentum was even greater.Cannonballs whizzed in and hit the front and back of the Qing army's defense line. Yan Zha heard the sound of land and rocks collapsing, as well as the screams and screams of many Qing troops in the defense line.

With a loud bang, a village building was directly hit by Ming army shells.

This village building has a civil structure, with a gate at the bottom, which can be guarded by some personnel. This kind of village building is no problem in protecting birds, guns, bows and arrows. Instantly collapsed.

The Qing army above and the Qing army hiding below, amidst the screams, fell into the mound of earth and stones, and were buried alive by all. It is difficult for a few of them to survive.

boom!A large iron ball broke through a dirt wall, and a large cloud of blood was mixed in the dust splash. A Qing soldier was beaten to pieces on the spot, and some fragmented limbs flew around in the dirt.

Several people fell to the ground, all of them were ashamed, and their bodies were covered with mud and flesh.A Han soldier's lower body was broken, and he fell far outside the wall of the village, but he survived for a while.He crawled on the ground in pain, while wailing heart-piercingly.

boom!boom! ...

Large and small artillery shells shot and jumped randomly. Some shells landed in the low wall of the ditch in front of the main wall, jumped a few times, and then remained motionless.

Some jumped over the wall of the village and shot towards the stone and wooden tents behind the ridge, knocking down some of the stone and wooden huts, causing screams to the auxiliary soldiers over there.Some unlucky ones were rolled by the shells, their limbs were broken, and they desperately hissed to the people around them for help.

Behind the ridge, two vest soldiers with white flags, one in front and one behind, stood proudly in front of a wooden house with their swords on their waists.

He was so calm in front of the artillery fire, which made the followers who fled in panic all admire him.

But in their panic, they didn't notice the large amount of blood gushing from the mouths of these two people.But a cannon shot hit the wooden house, and a sharp wooden stick shot from behind them, stringing them into a string from behind, and the two died slowly standing like this.

Jia Lazhang Jingyanzha, he saw from both sides of the arrow window of the enemy tower, his defense line was in a mess in the winding trench wall, many earth and stone walls collapsed, and even a few artillery pieces were hit, and the parts were scattered all over the place .

The soldiers behind the wall were either running around with fear in their hearts, or their faces were ashen and their eyes were dull.Many people sat in a daze, or huddled tightly in a corner, chanting words, not knowing which gods and Buddhas to pray to, or resigned to fate.

The wounded soldiers wailed one after another. Looking at this scene, Yan Zha couldn't help but tremble. He screamed suddenly, rushed to the arrow window directly in front, pointed at the Ming army artillery formation and cursed: "Han dog!" Cannon, what a bastard!"

……

The artillery of the Ming army came one after another. For the Qing soldiers, the suffering of the artillery shells was so long.After a long time, the whistling sound of the Ming army's artillery shells changed from dense to thin, and finally, the artillery positions quieted down.

Although the artillery fires in bursts, the cooling time needed to wait is less, especially the bronze cannons in the Ming army can fire longer than the iron cannons, but after half an hour of firing, the artillery of the Shenji Camp stopped.

When the smoke slowly dissipated, both Ming and Qing took out binoculars to watch carefully. Huang Taiji on the mountain city, Dorgon and others on Huangtuling naturally clenched their hands and gritted their teeth.

The Ming army's position, naturally cheered.

Hong Chengchou also had a telescope. He was too surprised to speak when he saw the results of the artillery bombardment.Zhang Ruoqi was also sucking in the air-conditioning, the expression on his face changed, for a long time, he didn't know what words to use to express his feelings.

Wang Dou nodded with a smile, the Shenji Battalion played well.

"Aha!"

Everyone in Shenji Camp cheered wildly, proud of their achievements.

They all sang in unison the song of the emperor's Ming Dynasty: "Hehe God, my emperor's Ming, the great destiny is gathered, and the foundation is solid and prosperous. Jue Ben Yihe, Yude Erotic Palace, Jue Zhi Yihe, and the feudal state is peaceful. Celebrating for hundreds of generations, Zebei will live in groups, live forever, and watch Juecheng forever."

They sang to each other and danced with them from time to time.

Soon, the Song of Heavenly Jubilee Emperor Ming became another majestic song.

But he was a soldier of the Shenji Battalion, whose ancestor was under the Red Scarf Army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. He sang the song of the Red Scarf Army, which resonated with many people.

His voice was thick and rich, and he sang loudly with both emotion and emotion.

"Good man, don't leave your parents, just for the common people and not for the Lord."

"While holding the steel knife 99, kill Hu'er and stop."

"I'm a majestic man, why are the Tartars acting like horses and cows!"

Then many people interjected and sang: "A strong man will drink up all the wine in his bowl, and he will never look back on a journey of thousands of miles!"

In the end, everyone sang together: "The golden drums sound together and everyone roars, and the yellow dragon will not be broken! The golden drums are roared together, and the yellow dragon will not be broken!"

Hong Chengchou laughed and said, "Hahahahahaha!"

Wang Dou smiled, Shenjiying, optimistic and active.

Fu Yingchong looked at the soldiers in the battalion with satisfaction, and with his hands behind his back, he said loudly: "Brothers played well, playing the demeanor of my disciples in the capital, but it is not enough!"

With a wave of his hand, he said with great pride: "Give it to me, the mountain-piercing thunder cannon!"
