Take the arsenal to Da Ming

Chapter 203
The journey was smooth and smooth, and suddenly encountered a hard bone here in Yangzhou, which really made Duoduo feel stuck in his throat.

He is not afraid of failure. After all, the one who died was not the real Eight Banners Army, and no matter how many times he died, he would not feel sad.

However, Li Chengdong sent more than [-] troops one after another, but he didn't even touch the city gate, which made him feel more uncomfortable.

Although I didn't personally experience the new army's combat power, but from these two battles that ended quickly, I can get a glimpse of the new army's combat power.

Because he himself knows that the same number of Eight Banners Army can't do this, it's far from it.

However, he knew that the real new army in Yangzhou City was only a few thousand people, and the rest were Zuo Liangyu's part and the original Yangzhou defenders.

If Duoduo leads tens of thousands of people and still can't win such a city, what will the whole world think of him, Duoduo, and the Eight Banners Army?
So for Yangzhou City, he is bound to win.

But in order not to suffer the setbacks of the previous two battles, he could only wait for the arrival of the red cannon, which was also one of the main reliances for him to break through the strong city.

Finally, the red-clothed cannons that had made many achievements arrived, but this time, he did not dare to be unscrupulous, because he heard that the new army had much more powerful artillery than the red-clothed cannons, so he did not dare to be careless.

Therefore, he first sent ten red cannons to test it out.

If it was just to blow up the walls of Yangzhou City, which had been in disrepair for a long time, ten red cannons would be enough.

However, for the first time, Doduo was unconsciously a little nervous. For the first time, he was so restless, so he kept sending scouts to find out the latest news ahead, and then came back to report as soon as possible.

Belle Nikan, who was also in the tent, seemed to want to say something to comfort Prince Yu, but in the end he didn't know what to say, and he himself knew that Prince Yu, who had made great achievements in battle, didn't need Belle to comfort him.

"According to the time, has the bombardment of Yangzhou City already started, or is it about to start?" Duoduo muttered to himself, obviously wanting to know the effect of the bombardment and the new army's countermeasures.

"Maybe Yangzhou City has already been blown up." Nikan replied pretending to be relaxed.

"Hope is like..." Before Duduo finished his sentence, he heard a strange voice coming from far and near.

Then, there was a loud bang, the ground trembled, and the entire tent trembled violently.

The teacup on the table jumped up, and Nikan, who was sitting not far away, fell unsteadily to the ground.

"What's going on?" Nikan got up with a startled expression on his face.

The personal guard rushed in immediately, and shouted in horror: "Protect Your Highness, protect Your Highness."

Duoduo looked calm, and asked loudly, "What's going on?"

The captain of the personal guard responded in shock: "God's punishment, God's punishment, it's God's punishment, it's too scary, Your Highness, get out of here quickly."

The guards were a little confused, and Duoduo couldn't get the answer he wanted, so he rushed out of the tent immediately.

As far as the eye can see, the entire camp is in chaos, and the soldiers are all terrified and far away from the explosion area.

With a loud noise, Dodo saw a huge fireball with black smoke rising in the distance.

Ordinary soldiers may not have guessed what it was the first time, but Duoduo, who knew more information, immediately thought of it, "The artillery of the new army."

Doduo's voice trembled a little, his eyes tearing apart.

"Retreat, retreat." Although he was very unwilling, Duduo could only order angrily. Staying here is useless except being passively bombed.

Fortunately, those projectiles deviated a little. If they fell near his tent, Doduo would have to be killed in such a humiliating manner.

While holding up the shield to cover Doduo, the personal guards protected him on his horse, and then evacuated as soon as possible.

Although the Qing army was in chaos, it did not collapse. It can also be seen that their military quality is indeed much stronger.

All the ministries will gather their own teams as much as possible, and then ride their horses to escape from the place of right and wrong as soon as possible. Things that cannot be taken away immediately can only be discarded.

As for Kong Youde's department, it was in a state of confusion, because the impact point of the shell was exactly where his department combined with Duoduo's headquarters.

At this moment, the Qing army naturally had no time to take care of these surrendered generals. Even though Kong Youde was a group of people who surrendered to the Qing army earlier, it was impossible for them to treat them as their real ones.

Faced with a single shot that can destroy all shells within a radius of several tens of feet, soldiers who don't know why are called God's punishment, respecting them like gods, and being ashamed like devils.

Fear spread quickly like a plague, sweeping the entire camp.

Therefore, Kong Youde's troops directly bombed the camp, and all the officers and soldiers fled in all directions. The soldiers could not find the generals, and the generals could not find the soldiers. They were all like headless chickens.

This quickly caused a chain reaction. Many people who didn't know the situation were disturbed when they saw the loud noise and flames coming from here, as well as the soldiers fleeing frantically.

"There, there is Prince Yu's personal army..."

"What a terrible explosion, what's going on?"

"It's not good, Duoduo was killed by the bomb."

"Duo Duo was killed by the magic artillery of the new army. The Qing army fled. Run away. The new army brought the magic soldiers to kill them."

Not long after, Duoduo was killed, and the news that the Qing army had fled quickly spread among Geng Zhongming's, Liu Zeqing's, Liu Liangzuo's, Li Chengdong's, Xu Dingguo's and other surrendered troops.

For a while, these surrendered troops bombed the camp one after another, especially Liu Zeqing's, Liu Liangzuo's and Li Chengdong's troops who had just surrendered.

It was Li Chengdong's troops who bombed the camp first, because yesterday they attacked twice and failed miserably at a very fast speed, and they didn't even touch the city wall of Yangzhou.

Just now, Li Chengdong organized an offensive team of ten thousand people, and was ready to launch an attack again after the red cannons sent by Duoduo launched an artillery attack on Yangzhou City.

But suddenly, with a loud whistling sound, the area where the red-clothed cannon was being operated in the distance suddenly burst into flames, smoke was everywhere, and the ground trembled, as if the doomsday had come.

Many soldiers watched this horrible scene helplessly. No matter how stupid they were, they knew that the red cannons of the Qing army were gone, not even the men and cannons.

Then, I learned that Duduo's headquarters, which were so far apart, had been bombed. Isn't it normal that Duduo was killed by the bombing?
Those soldiers who survived yesterday's two battles, as well as the [-]-strong army preparing to launch an attack, instinctively believed the news.

Because the horror of the new army's divine soldiers is right in front of them, and it has already been imprinted deep in their hearts.

The first to collapse was this [-]-strong team that was about to be sent out to attack. The originally neat team suddenly collapsed like dominoes.

Many soldiers were even pushed down and trampled on, the scene was tragic and chaotic.

Fleeing and panic spread like a plague. Li Chengdong's troops were the forwards, so they were the closest to Yangzhou City. If they fled, they would naturally go in the opposite direction.

In this case, it will inevitably impact the other departments in the rear. These soldiers are spreading these true and false news while fleeing.

Three people became tigers, and almost all the other ministries believed the news that Duoduo was killed and the Qing army collapsed and fled, so the continuous bombing of the camp happened without warning.
