Chapter 239 Shaoxing Defensive Battle
In just one incense stick, many people from the Qing army climbed the city wall, and more and more.
The Ming soldiers resisted bravely, and Liao Zhongping, a thousand households, led the way and took the battle personally.
It took about half an hour to drive this wave of Qing troops down the city.
Duoduo, who was watching the battle from a distance, was furious. Before the Qing army retreated, he organized a second wave of attacks again.
This wave of attack was different from the first time. A tall and big Tartar gang leader (the five Niulu's main generals, with one thousand five people under his command, equivalent to the Ming army's ministry), wearing iron face, wearing three thick armors, two swords on his waist, holding a giant axe, took the lead, led 600 armors, rushed forward, climbing up from the cloud ladder.
Although the Ming army on the city kept firing arrows at this heavy armored soldier, using these ordinary arrows to deal with the thick armor on their bodies was like scratching their feet and it was completely useless. Soon the six hundred people slowly climbed up to the battlements.
At this time, the situation was quite critical.
The six hundred Qing troops were heavily armored. If they were allowed to climb the city wall, the Ming troops guarding the city would have to focus all their energy on them. Then the Qing infantry that followed would quickly climb the city.
Liao Zhongping was anxious, and he roared and "blocked them."
But how can I stop it?
The Ming army soldiers stabbed with a spear in their hands, but they could not penetrate.
Cut with a knife, it cannot be cut through.
Even the faces of these heavily armored soldiers are covered with iron.
How to aim for a small eye hole?
These are living people who can move, attack, and swing their swords.
Hundreds of Ming soldiers who were close to each other fell in front of the Qing army with a cry of cry, and the Ming army was forced to retreat step by step.
How many steps can you take to the city wall?
Seeing that the Ming army was about to be squeezed down from the city wall, Zhang Huangyan, who had already felt something was wrong under the city, led hundreds of people to squeeze onto the city.
Zhang Huangyan shouted: "Cut their necks!"
Zhang Huangyan was not a general. When he organized the rebel army, he led the troops for a few days, but he had never fought a war until now.
But he gave his instructions at the right time.
No matter how strong the armor is, it has gaps and joints. Otherwise, wouldn’t the armor-piercing person become a piece of iron? How can he walk and swing his knife?
The fatal point of the Qing army's heavy armor was the neck, which was different from the joints of the arms and legs. The neck needed to be raised up, down, and rotated left and right, so its gap was undoubtedly the largest.
But the gap in the neck is not so easy to pierce or cut, because the iron mask is very large, and from the front it is blocking the neck.
But just after Zhang Huangyan shouted, several smart and quick-responsive Ming soldiers responded.
These people are closest to the heavy armored soldiers and are already in extreme danger and will be struck by the heavy armored soldiers at any time.
Therefore, they have taken into account the dangers and will not retreat but advance.
This advance is not to rush forward, but to pounce on the heavy armored soldiers.
After slamming down, he turned his back to the sky. At this time, the neck of the heavy armor of the Qing army was exposed to them.
The heavy armored soldiers were carrying heavy armor, and their reaction was undoubtedly slow.
Before they could bow their heads, the Ming soldiers who were looking up at the sky had already stabbed the tip of the knife in their hands into their necks. With a draw, the gushing blood rushed down like a waterfall, and the Ming soldiers who were fighting were poured on. The scene was like the knife that killed a pig, dripping with pleasure.
This scene was quickly imitated by the soldiers around him, so within a moment, the six hundred armors were inexplicably killed half of them.
The leading Qing army general realized that something was wrong, but it was easy to get up the city and it was difficult to get down the city. How could he have a chance to retreat?
The more than one hundred surviving armored soldiers were surrounded by the Ming army, so they could not even rush, and they could not even retreat.
As soon as they rushed, the Ming army fell to the ground.
As soon as he retreated, the Ming army stood up and pursued.
Whether advancing or retreating, the Ming soldiers were faster than theirs.
The Qing army general who had killed more than a dozen people was so depressed that he raised his sword and shouted fiercely, but was blocked by the iron face and made only a muffled sound.
At this time, a thin Ming soldier quickly stepped forward and stabbed the spear in his hand forward, and accidentally stabbed the general's throat.
Without even saying a word, General Gang fell to the ground. Another quick-eyed Ming army stepped forward, carrying the General Gang's iron helmet, and circled the knife in his hand, a dozen pounds of a human head with an iron helmet, and entered his hand.
This is a great achievement, and promotion is indispensable.
The Ming soldiers watching the crowd shouted "yo", and at this time, the Tartar infantry was already charging.
It was too late to say that, and the defeat of the six hundred armors was just at this moment. Duoduo, who was watching the battle, had no time to save him. Duoduo, who was angry and attacked his heart, issued an order to attack the general attack in desperation.
Six hundred armors are old, and iron tools are in the Ming Dynasty, and they are also controlled materials.
A heavy armor, with at least seventy or eighty kilograms of iron armor on his body, let alone the cost of this iron armor is very huge. If you want to find someone who can wear this iron armor with such a six hundred people, even if the Tartars are stronger than the Ming people, they will be one out of a hundred.
The heavy armored army, which has always been invincible, has just been destroyed in a small pass?
This made Duoduo's heart extremely angry.
So, all the plans and plans in his mind turned into flames at this moment, and he just wanted to burn the city!
The Ming soldiers quickly leaned against the city wall and prepared to face the third wave of attack.
But this time, I am not as lucky as the first two times.
Faced with the third wave of attacks by the Tartars, the Ming soldiers had consumed most of their physical strength after the previous two fierce battles. In addition, they had to fight against the 600 armors, and the casualties were still fine. The key was that most of the facilities on the battlements had collapsed.
After a few rounds of arrows, he was driven by Duoduo, and the ferocious Tartars rushed to the city wall.
The bloody battle broke out.
....
The five thousand cavalry sent by Dodo to the north six of the post pavilion were led by Boluo.
Boluo was only in his early thirties at this time, but he was already a veteran on the battlefield. Since eleven years ago, he has followed Huang Taiji to fight south and north and made countless military achievements.
In some ways, his military talent is slightly better than Duoduo.
The difference in identity made Boro beneath Dodo, but Boro did not complain, but instead respected Dodo very much.
Duoduo asked him to lead a side army to the north gate. If Geng Zhongming was replaced, he would probably be muttering in his heart.
Five thousand cavalry, these are the Eight Banners Cavalry. In field battles, they are enough to compete with enemies that are several times more than themselves.
But in siege, it is not as aggressive as an infantryman.
Geng Zhongming would wonder if Duoduo planned to send him away and prevent him from gaining military merits.
But Boro would not think so, he was willing to obey Duo's orders.
Over the years, he has been following Duoduo. Since entering the pass, he has defeated Li Zicheng, pacified Henan, defeated Tongguan, and captured Xi'an. After that, he has successively conquered Changzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Jiaxing, and competed for Wujiang, defeated the Ming general Wu Yi's army, and captured Jiangyin.
