"Boom boom boom..."

The continuous sound of cannons made Na Songqing shrink his shoulders and try his best to not think about the misery on the city.

The army headed south into the pass, and the Regent not only took away most of the troops of the Eight Banners, but also most of the artillery in the hands of the Qing Dynasty. In such an important place in Niuzhuang, there were only two red cannons, plus more than a dozen small cannons such as Fran machine cannons. Yesterday, it was destroyed by the Zheng army's artillery fire.

All day today, they were all shot in the city.

Thanks to the fact that no one cut corners when the Niuzhuang City was expanded, the city wall was very solid. Risong felt that he could hold on for another two days. When the city wall collapsed and Zheng's army attacked again, then compete for knife and tenacity.

Ashan had already led his vest soldiers to the outside of the city, but left him the 200-step armor he brought.

That Risong didn't think about anything else now, just waited for the city wall to collapse and took people to the ruins to fight with the Southern Barbarians (liao).

Another muffled sound came. The flowering bullets of Zheng Zhilong, a kind of shell that could continue to explode after landing. Yesterday, they first saw them yesterday, but they suffered a great loss. The Eight Banners Warriors hiding behind the city wall were killed and injured by this shell.

Several large "cannonballs" were thrown into the city by the thunder chariot. Zheng Jun played new tricks outside, moved out the catapult car with counterweight, and threw several extra-large shells into the city.

Compared with shells, the speed of these large shells seems very slow, and a curved curve was drawn in the air, with a harsh roar, which could be seen clearly with the naked eye.

But they did not explode after landing, but were still five or six meters away from the ground, and then a large number of thin banners scattered into Niuzhuang City.

It turns out that their function is so.

"Zheng Zhilong is indeed rich. There are high-quality white silk in this banner. I can't even wear such a good thing, so he is better."

That Risong scoffed at these banners. Zheng Zhilong thought that this was the Central Plains outside the pass? Some of them knew the words of writing and writing. The words of persuading surrender on the banner were so varied, but no one knew the words. Wasn't it just a charming look on the blind man?

He didn't even order anyone to collect all the banners and burn them. Because banners are also useful. Zheng Zhilong's woe is inhumane, and the materials used in the banners are all fine cotton cloth, or silk or other silk, only a very small number are linen cloth.

These things were picked up by the military soldiers, and as long as they were not dead, they could be used when they were taken home. Not to mention anything else, just sew some clothes and socks and soles, and put them in the soles. Is it okay?

That Risong didn't take this matter seriously at all.

But who knows that in the next few days, Zheng Jun seemed to have made some sudden changes, and even shooting artillery was weak.

It was also at this time that the Turge and Ilden brothers led their troops from Liaoyang to quickly rescue. The Qing army in Niuzhuang reached 5,000 troops, of which 2,000 troops in the Eight Banners, and the rest were all the same as the ones Baoyi Ding Zhuang.

That day, I felt relieved, and I felt like I had taken off a thousand pounds of burden. Now I was lying on a recliner, drinking tea leisurely, and standing next to me was the anxious five. "Okay, okay, I said, you kid, do whatever you should do, don't sway in front of me? Brother, I was dizzy."

"Third brother, the two of them had blisters on their faces, limbs, chest and back, and they also had high fever, which was obviously smallpox!"

When Na Wu said the last two words, his whole body was trembling.

That Risong's expression also changed, "Nobody, how can there be smallpox in Niuzhuang? It's just two unlucky guys who have fever and burned to death. There is smallpox there."

What stall is it now? If this news spreads, Niuzhuang will even be a big fucking battle.

The Wu felt that this matter could be hidden from the bottom of the road, but he had to report it up and leave it to Turge and Ildon to make the decision.

That Risong’s opinion is just two words: nonsense!

This matter cannot be revealed to the public.

In the Zheng army's village in front of Niuzhuang City, Zheng Zhilong looked at the Qing army opposite, and his eyes were not worried about the increase in their number. For him, the more Tartars there, the better.

If it weren't for the fear of the plague, that thing would be terrible and could not be preserved, he would have wanted to throw the piles of mice in Yanjing City, instead of just some banners dyed with thick ceiling slurry and scab powder.

Smallpox is a thing for the Tartars to fear from the heart, and that is their absolute nightmare.

Because he lived in a relatively cold area in the north, smallpox rarely occurred here, so the Tartars lacked immunity in their genes. Smallpox has been popular in Shengjing area many times, killing countless deaths. Many members of the Later Jin Dynasty, such as Yuetuo and Ma Zhan, died of smallpox. In order to avoid smallpox, Huang Taiji once ordered the establishment of a shelter, and he and the royal family frequently hid in it. People who were making fun of it would be forced to be sent 100 miles away from Shengjing, and later changed to 60 miles. Because he was superstitious that acne areas should not be cut down, he issued an order to ask for a dead tree if someone was found to "travel around when acne occurs", he would immediately be punished. The Eight Banners leadership in his area would also be severely punished.

In the original history, Dorgon's brother Duoduo and even Shunzhi himself died because of smallpox. It was Kang Mazi, who was praised by N Duo's people as the "Eternal Emperor". The reason why he inherited the throne was not because he had survived smallpox at a young age.

In history, in order to deal with smallpox, Kang Mazi asked people to concentrate on studying "human acne". Because the climate in Yanjing was relatively mild, did the small ice river pass in the middle and late Kangxi period? Therefore, smallpox is common in the capital. In order for the members of the royal family to avoid acne, Emperor Kangxi ordered the construction of a summer resort. The summer resort is not for the summer resort.

However, as a time traveler, Zheng Zhilong is ignorant of medicine, so he has heard of the word "vulpox".

Compared with the people who appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty and were ordered by Kangxi to study and then study, cowpox was not only cultivated quickly, but also had less harm. It was also because of this that he was able to produce so much thick smallpox and scab powder.

As for whether the Tartars on the opposite side will be infected, it is the end of May and the weather is still warm. What can’t be transmitted?

He has been idle these days, right?

Relying on the lack of firepower in the Qing army, the counterweight trencher was working all the time.

That fifth is the younger brother, and the younger brother wants to listen to his brother. Although he thinks that Risong is wrong in doing this, he cannot help but admit that Risong has some truth. So he must listen to his brother.

Then, the small flower disease finally spread in Niuzhuang.

Zheng Jun clearly had an absolute advantage, but he was weak in fighting. Not to mention that Risong felt something was wrong with the other side, even Turge and Ildon thought so.

If one can cause a great decline in fighting spirit, the biggest possibility is that Zheng Zhilong is sick or seriously ill.

Turge suffered a great loss at Zheng Zhilong's hands. Ilden saw the war in his eyes. The two brothers were so excited that they wanted to shout for the blessing of Buddha when they thought about their guesses.

This time, Zheng Zhilong suddenly rushed to Niuzhuang in the sea. The news reached Shengjing, but it scared the crowd. Does Zheng Zhilong want to occupy Niuzhuang again and not leave?

If Zheng Zhilong really doesn't leave in Niuzhuang Panheng, the impact will be quite big. The first is the moving capital, and the second is the entry of the Eight Banners into the Pass.

Dorgon frequently wrote letters to move the capital to Yanjing, and at the same time let the Eight Banners' family members enter the pass, but if Niuzhuang is blocked, how can he move the capital and how can he move the family members of women, children?

The Zheng family's naval warships may not be able to kill Changning Fort and Chang'an Fort, and are close to the city of Shengjing.

Although their brothers rushed to raise troops at Liaoyang Point to reinforce the country, they were unsure of it.

That was never dreaming that Zheng Zhilong would cross without fighting.

The entire Niuzhuang Qing army was in a state of great joy. Under this general trend, some people in the army suddenly had fever, fatigue, headaches, limbs and waist and back pain, and even continued high fever, convulsions and coma, which did not cause much concern to people.

It was not until these people had rashes on their foreheads, cheeks, wrists, arms, torso and lower limbs three or five days later that the Tartars were shocked to find that a demon's figure had unconsciously enveloped them.

After the news came out, it was like a small mushroom blooming in the camp, and all morale, military morale, all fighting spirit and loyalty were all swept away.

Smallpox disease does not matter your status, but it may be that the lowly Baoyi Aha is safe and sound, but the master fell down. The real equality of everything is in front of it.

"Li Wu. Take people forward and take me Niuzhuang down." Zheng Zhilong held up a telescope and looked at the opposite side. The defenders on the top of the city were all listless or trembling. Coupled with the riots in the Qing army camp, the spirit of the defenders was shaving down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

How could Zheng Zhilong give up this great opportunity?

The bald soldier under Li Wu was the first soldier under Zheng Zhilong who had all been vaccinated with cowpox. So much so that the bald soldiers had too many faces, and the bald soldiers were called to be the Mazi Camp.

Of course, Li Wu didn't think the name of Maziying sounded good, but now he is proud of his identity as "Maziying".

It is indeed a true saying that the truth is wrong.

Look at the camps at the moment, except for Li Wu, who dared to lead his troops into Niuzhuang, who dared to sting?

"Big Brother..." Ildon looked at Turge with a panic look on his face.

The Zheng army outside has launched an offensive. How can Niuzhuang defend under such circumstances?

"Let's go." There is still a chance to leave at this time. When you return to Liaoyang, even if you don't take a step towards Shengjing, it will be better than now, right?

They can get time to rectify their troops and shave off the "wounded people", and they can still have the power to fight.

"Let's go, go immediately..." Turge was still very decisive, "Leave all the coats and tell Dazhu and the others that they must stick to it for a day and they will disperse at this time tomorrow."

"As long as they can stand here for a day and make a contribution in the future, I guarantee that they can carry the flag."
