The Ming army's defense line began to loosen.

Chi Erhan realized this and quickly ordered the arrow attack to stop and led his troops to launch a restraining attack against the Qing army from the side.

But it's still too late.

The Qing cavalry, in a crazy manner, forcibly broke through the Zhou Dahu tribe, Li Ruhai tribe's defense line, and tore a hole several feet wide to the second tribe.

The Qing army rushed towards Hangzhou City like a flood.

The battle situation is changing rapidly.

Wu Zheng and Wang Yilin around him suddenly changed his expression.

Wu Zheng immediately ordered the defenders of the city to prepare for war. In fact, at this time, Wu Zheng was no longer worried.

After forcibly blocking the three ministries, the previously scattered Ming army had already completed its encirclement and was shrinking towards Hangzhou City.

In other words, it doesn’t take too long, just a stick of incense, and the Ming army about ten miles away will arrive.

Although there are few people in the city, there is still hope for the time to withstand an incense stick with it.

Chen Shoujie has been ordered to fire.

This is the second shelling today. Wu Zheng's order was to shoot out all the shells, and even if they hit the bomb, they would not stop.

The shelling here is no longer aimed at killing the enemy, it will only delay and block the enemy.

The roar of sixty-three artillery fires caused mud flowers to bloom in areas two or three miles outside the city wall.

The Eight Banners cavalry shuttled through it, and from time to time, cavalry were shaken by the air waves, and a large number of war horses were even more likely to stand and neigh, lifting the soldiers on the horse off.

But in the end, the Tartar cavalry could not be stopped from approaching the city wall.

Chi Erhan, behind the Tartars, was li Ruhai's liver and gallbladder, and he was frantically directing the army to chase.

While running, he didn't even take the Tartar infantry passing by.

Their only goal is to return to help!

Seeing the Tartar cavalry advancing a mile in front of the city wall, Wu Zheng and Wang Yilin looked at each other, drew their swords "knocked" and prepared to fight to the death.

But the situation of the war changed again, the Tatar cavalry suddenly turned.

Turn north outside Qingchun Gate.

A huge arc was drawn, and all the crossbow arrows shot by the defenders on the city wall were lost.

What's even more strange is that the Tartar infantry who passed by Chi Erhan and others immediately turned and headed north.

baffling!

Wu Zheng only has these four words in his mind.

Are the Tartars going to attack the North Gate?

Is it interesting?

There is obviously hope to capture Qingchun Gate and kill himself, why did Duoduo turn to the North Gate?

Although there are only 500 guards in the North Gate, compared with the Qing army that was already close to the city wall, the artillery on the Qingchun Gate wall has lost its effectiveness. Even if the artillery soldiers participated in the battle, there were only more than 600 people in the Qingchun Gate. Why bother to attack the North Gate?

This is inconsistent with Wu Zheng’s imagination. If Qingchun Gate has himself, isn’t Duoduo thinking about killing himself to vent his anger?

Moreover, even if Duoduo led his army to capture the North Gate, once the three armies meet, there will be more than 40,000 controllable soldiers.

With such a huge gap in force, can Duoduo be sure to use one goal to block his full counterattack?

Wu Zheng was really stunned.

The battlefield became very strange, and Chi Erhan and his troops, who were running out of breath, were also stunned. They watched the entire Tartar army turn and stood in a daze.

Almost watched the Tartars' backs go away.

Having said that, at this time, even if Chi Erhan and his team wanted to chase after him, they would not have the strength to chase him.

The soldiers who were determined to return to the rescue ran with great strength. At this time, they saw that Wu Zheng was not in a hindrance on the city wall, and the tight string had already relaxed. How could they have the strength and thought to pursue?

The whole person is soft.

The Ming army that completed the encirclement and rushed towards the city was still three or four miles away.

Such a time difference was firmly grasped by Duoduo.

Duoduo knew people's hearts very well. He knew that once the city gate was in danger, all the Ming army that blocked him would think of would be the first thing he thought of was to return to help.

Four or five miles away from the city gate, even a cow would be unable to run down.

The Eight Banners Army charged the cavalry, and four or five miles were no problem.

As for the Eight Banners infantry, they almost watched Chi Erhan and other troops return to the rescue, and they didn't even stop them, so they saved their efforts to turn north.

The Ming army who rose behind him was beyond reach.

So, an almost lossless turnaround took place under Wu Zheng's nose.

It's so refreshing.

Wu Zheng, who was urgently reported by the Genshan Gate defenders, woke up.

Duoduo did not want to attack the city, but retreated.

The Tatars passed by the Gen Mountain Gate and left without even taking a look at the city gate.

The emergency reports that Wu Zheng completely understood Duoduo's intentions.

Jiaxing City is liberated.

This explains why Duoduo broke through the north first because he could not go back with his team of 7,000 people.

Wu Zheng did not order a pursuit.

Because there is no need, the north of Hangzhou is Deqing, and at least it is still the territory of the Tartars.

In addition, after today's battle, the soldiers were exhausted and there was no longer the spirit of pursuing.

If Duoduo set up an ambush to fight, it would be more than worth the loss.

The Ming army soldiers were still scared about Duoduo's previous powerful counterattack.

As the Ming army returned to the east, the three armies met, and a wave of cheers rang out of Qingchun Gate.

This battle is indeed not easy to win, and it can be said to be thrilling.

Three folds and three rises, like dreaming.

All participants are qualified to be proud, even the Ming army that had dispersed before.

Because without them returning to the encirclement, Chi Erhan and other troops would not be able to resist the more than 7,000 Eight Banners Army of Duoduo.

The deterrence formed by these more than 30,000 people forced Duoduo to choose to retreat north.

Although he ran away from Duoduo, Wu Zheng gained a lot. Not to mention the solidification of Hangzhou City and the earnings of the people, just the remnants of Duoduo's troops retreated and the eight cannons left behind had already made Wu Zheng and Chen Shoujie and his son grin.

This is a well-coated Ming red cannon with 1,600 kilograms and 2,000 kilograms, unlike the imitation of Western cannons in Wu Zheng's hand now.

Not only is the range long, but the power is incomparable.

Chen Shoujie was excited to hold the cannon and refused to let go, so he almost kissed him with his mouth.

No wonder, the excitement in the heart of those who love cannons was understood when they saw them losing one by one, and now they saw them back for the first time.

The people in the city cheered and rushed towards the city gate. Such a battle with huge differences in strength between the enemy and us ended with the complete victory of the Ming army, which is really worth celebrating.

It was not dark, and fireworks were already set off in the city, and the sound of firecrackers was almost the same as the sound of artillery.

This is a battle to change the strength pattern of Jiangnan.

Anyone who understands the situation a little understands that the power of the Tatars in southern Suzhou will disappear due to this battle.

Only then will the Hangzhou City be truly restored.

The people cried with joy. Even if the Ming Dynasty was dark, as Ming people, they still had their homeland in mind.

They celebrated this and used the small amount of food in the family to exchange for wine, and were very unprepared to continue living.
Chapter completed!
