The Qing army's defense in the city was briefly empty, which allowed the Wusongwei troops to easily attack within one mile from the city wall.

In addition, it was the second midnight after all, and the torch and the fire were not bright enough to reflect every area under the city.

At the same time, the soldiers of Wusong Guard were running quickly. No matter how accurate the guards bows and crossbows were, they could not hinder them. The only way to hinder was that the defenders used dense arrows on the city walls.

But this required more manpower, but the Qing army was queuing up to the city wall at this time, and it was impossible to form a dense mass. Until the Wusong Guard soldiers began to put ladders on the city wall to climb the city, the Qing army had just completed the deployment on the city wall and began to shoot siege troops with dense arrows.

A round of arrows shot down no less than a hundred soldiers from Wusongwei City and fell directly from the ladder.

However, the Qing army had only two rounds of arrows.

The sound of cannons was "rumbling", the mountains were yelling and tsunami, and the overwhelming shells were poured on the city walls. They were naturally blooming bullets.

The debris produced by the shell explosion were shot from all directions, forming a net of death.

The despair in the eyes of those Qing soldiers who worked hard to catch up with the wall and shot two arrows with bows was unparalleled.

The shells were shot too accurately, and they were as accurate as the second line of the flowering bullet, that is, the fuse of the detonating shell body in the iron shell burned out, and the shells exploded in the air, and most of the positions happened to be on the heads of the defenders.

Yes, after firing a gun for a whole day, if you can't determine the artillery fire, the artillery regiment will not be the artillery regiment.

This round of artillery can be said to be the most cost-effective round of shooting in the entire day of war.

Hundreds of flowering bullets fucked nearly 2,000 defenders.

When the soldiers of the First Boden City of Wusongwei turned over and climbed up the city wall, the Qing soldiers who could still resist on the city wall would not exceed 300 at most.

Later generations said that when weapons are separated by generation, they are no longer war, but massacre.

This statement is indeed true on a specific battlefield.

For example, it is like the local battlefield in Haizhou at this time, this point has been confirmed.

Of course, the weapons of the two are not separated, at most they are only half generations.

Because they are all front-loaded cannons, the only difference is that under the guidance of Wu Zheng, the artillery of the Northern Expedition Army was made more refined.

The rifle made the shell an oval shape, which greatly improved the sealing of the barrel.

Furthermore, the calcined steel of large steam engines greatly accelerated the toughness of steel, so that the Northern Expedition Army could reduce the weight by no less than 40% of the guns of the same range.

This is no longer simple, and the standardized refining of gunpowder has greatly improved the power and reliability of the explosion.

This is absolutely incomparable to the red cannons that the Qing army had previously deployed on the city wall and have now been destroyed.

The Qing army even stuffed lead and stone bullets into the gun barrel. How could this compete with the Wusongwei artillery regiment?

....

The battle continues.

The Tartars' resistance was still tenacious, but they turned the bloody battle that should have been launched on the city wall into the city wall, and the two armies turned their positions upside down.

Yue Le gathered more than 10,000 troops near the South Gate.

The composition of these troops is much purer than that of Ajige's former Xuzhou army in Fengyang Prefecture.

Most of them are Han flag troops.

Although the eight banners of Han have the word "Han", they really cannot be regarded as being composed of all Han people.

In fact, most of the Han people outside the pass were the main body, gathering various ethnic groups outside the pass, such as the Goryeo, and even Manchu and Mongolian tribes.

The Han people outside the pass have actually been assimilated by the Manchus. They don’t even think they are Ming people, let alone Han people.

Their personalities, habits, and language are almost the same as those of a man.

Therefore, when the first wave of 800-man vanguards of Wusongwei rushed inward from the city wall, the resistance encountered was fierce.

This is a bloody battle that Wusongwei has never experienced before. The soldiers on both sides have no tactical actions because of the crowding, but are just biting each other with instincts and beast-like instincts.

In this regard, the Qing army was obviously dominant.

The artillery fire of Wusongwei can no longer provide support, the shells do not have eyes, and the Lu domain is not Li Guo, so they can order indiscriminate shooting.

Even if Li Guo was in the Lu domain, Wu Zheng, who was in person, would not agree.

Isn't this a joke? For the sake of an empty Haizhou city (the people in the city have been slaughtered by the Tartars), Wu Zheng would not consider this non-mainstream method at all.

After half an hour of fierce battle, Wusongwei, who was rushing down the city, was forced to retreat to the city wall by the Qing army.

Not only is the power worse than that of humans, the key is that Wusongwei's one-person-high musket cannot be used on the battlefield at all, and the crowd is too crowded.

The Wusongwei army, who had climbed the city wall, was unable to join the battle at all. There were less than five or six thousand people on both sides, and they were squeezed into the inner side of the south gate. The area of ​​only two or three miles was radius.

Both sides were squeezing each other desperately, pinching them with their nails and biting them with their teeth, and the battle seemed to have returned to the primitive tribe period.

So when a Wusonggu soldiers suddenly detonated their grenades, the explosion only made a muffled sound, and the holes that appeared were filled with crowds in the blink of an eye, as if they had never appeared.

....

"Prince, this will not be possible... This is equivalent to promoting the enemy's commander. Our army is a firearm army, but when we are approaching the enemy... In my opinion, it is better to withdraw and repair it and continue to attack the city after it is...!"

The Lu domain is indeed anxious. Wusongwei, which has always been fierce, has ever fought such a war?

Before, Qian Qiaogong blocked him outside Xinba Town as a meat shield and chopping board, and he had suffered heavy casualties. Now, when he came on the Haizhou city wall again, Wusongwei would be really disabled.

He was in a mess, and now he only wanted to get Wu Zheng's permission to withdraw the troops.

Wu Zheng looked at the south gate, and the fire lights rising and falling in the distance were slowly said: "...In fact, our army has taken a big advantage."

These words shocked the Land of Lu.

Wu Zheng pointed to the battlefield and said, "The enemy's troops in the city are far better than our army, and the physical strength and combat skills are better than our army... The reason why Yue Le dared not go out of the city to take the initiative is nothing more than two reasons. One is that there is Ji Xiha and Lan Bai's previous lessons. Yue Le is worried about being imprisoned again. The other is that Yue Le knows very well that the Qing court has no plan to go south. Even if he takes the initiative to fight, he may not get the reward he deserves. In this way, he will lose his troops and fight a battle that his uncle does not hurt his grandmother and he will naturally be uninterested... Besides, our army's artillery fire is strong, so he may not have the confidence to win."

Speaking of this, Wu Zheng turned around and looked at Lu Zhiyuan and said, "Haizhou blocked our army's route of the Northern Expedition, and our army could not afford to delay time... If you want to win, you have to pay the price. Are you ready?"

Lu Zhiyu felt a little nervous. He understood what Wu Zheng meant, and he knew that he and Wu Songwei were destined to make this chopping board for chopping meat.

He took a deep breath and raised his head and said, "I'll... be ready!"

Wu Zheng nodded with satisfaction and asked, "How many people are there in his hands?"

"Three thousand people."

"Well... go up!"

"yes."
