Chapter 261 Fierce Battle

For Jianlu who had just fought the Battle of Songjin, Jizhou City was already a piece of cake.Not only is the city defense not as strong as Jinzhou, but also because the defenders in the city are not as elite as the Guanning Army, and their numbers are much smaller.

Such a city, it is no problem to take it down.

At this opening, the whole army rushed forward, and they must be able to go down in one go.Jianlu and Mongolian Tartars were in a hurry to plunder Lu, so they would not spend much time in Jizhou City.

With such a plan, Turg readjusted the deployment according to Abate's intention.

The Mongolian Tartars were not good at attacking cities, and now they were sent to cover the attacking troops, and none of them complained, and they all wanted to take down Jizhou as soon as possible.

Immediately, outside the city of Jizhou, war drums burst out, and under the mobilization of personnel, people shouted and neighed, full of momentum.

The defenders on the top of the city were very nervous when they saw Jianlu's large-scale siege posture.

Jianlu attacked the city on such a large scale, can Jizhou hold it?

Compared to them, Bai Tengjiao and Yan Yingyuan were much more confident. They patrolled the city and shouted loudly to tell their soldiers not to panic.Jianlu did not approach, and he was not allowed to fire.

One after another ground chariots were set up outside the city, and behind each chariot stood the gunners of the Eight Banners of the Han Army and the archers of the Mongolian Tartars.Following the order of Jianlu leader, these chariots began to move towards the city.

Looking from the top of the city, it looks like a wall of ground, covering the enemies behind, approaching the top of the city.It also seemed like waves, rushing towards the city one after another.

Fortunately, the defenders on the top of the city are all old soldiers. If they were new recruits, the scene in front of them would probably scare them to pee.

At this moment, suddenly, deafening gunfire sounded outside the city.

"Boom"

The gunner commanded by Kong Youde started to fire, and as the gunpowder smoke rose into the sky, two iron bullets shot out and hit the gate of Jizhou City.

"Boom"

With two loud bangs, an iron bullet hit the walls on the left and right sides of the city gate, kicking up dust.

It was just the first test of the cannon, and the landing point of the iron bullet was right next to the city gate.It can be seen from this that the level of these traitor gunners trained by the Franc robot is indeed acceptable.

Seeing this scene, the Jianlu army cheered.

When Kong Youde saw it, he immediately urged his subordinates: "Hurry up, fire the gun immediately after adjusting, and don't give the officers and soldiers a chance to block the door!"

Generally speaking, in the case of a sudden attack, no one would choose to block the city gate immediately.Because in that case, it means that people in the city will not be able to get out, and they may become shackles.

Kong Youde's subordinates are all experienced, and they have blasted through many city gates before.Without Kong Youde's order, he was adjusting quickly.

When Jianlu's chariot fired at Kong Youde's side, it had already accelerated its movement speed, putting more pressure on all the defenders on the top of the city, restraining the defenders on the top of the city from being distracted, and unable to calmly deal with the siege .

Yan Yingyuan happened to be in charge of the direction of Kong Youde's attack. Seeing that Kong Youde had started bombarding the city gate, he ordered the cannons on the top of the city to point their muzzles at Jianlu's two cannons, and then fired a salvo.

"Boom boom boom..."

On the top of the city, gunpowder smoke rose into the sky, and iron bullets shot out along with it.

Five or six iron bullets landed on the ground, and then bounced off, all heading towards the Jianlu artillery position.

It's just a pity that none of the iron bullets hit accurately.More importantly, there were a lot of sandbags piled up in front of Jianlu's artillery positions.Unless it is a direct hit, it is difficult to cause a lot of damage to the Jianlu artillery behind the sandbags if the iron bullets are ejected alone.

After weighing it in his heart, Yan Yingyuan immediately changed his mind and ordered the artillery on the top of the city to bombard freely, and the target was changed to those chariots.

"Boom"

"Boom boom boom..."

The iron bullets were thrown outside the city, and all the chariots that were hit by the hit were immediately torn apart, and the unlucky archers of the Jianlu and Mongolian Tartars behind were also injured.

And Jianlu's iron bullet finally hit the city gate.However, the city gate was not opened, and it was obviously blocked.

After discovering this situation, Kong Youde gave up bombarding the city gate and instead bombarded the city head.

However, it is obviously much more difficult to hit the battlements just right than to bombard the city gate.The iron bullet either hit the city wall too low, or flew too high into the city.

"Boom"

"Boom boom boom..."

Amidst the deafening gunfire, the shouts of killing immediately sounded.

"kill……"

After all, the artillery was limited, and a large number of chariots began to approach the city wall, and the Jianlu long-range units behind those chariots began to shoot or shoot arrows at the top of the city.Especially the Mongolian archers, because of the manpower, the shooting speed of the bows and arrows is fast. At the beginning, they immediately suppressed the Ming army on the top of the city.

Seeing this good opportunity, those white armored soldiers, and others who were arranged to attack the city first, immediately began to climb the city with simple ladders.

The siege battle immediately entered the most intense battle at the beginning.

On the top of the city, the soldiers of the Ming army were so suppressed that they did not dare to look under the city, but when they saw the ladders approaching the top of the city, they held the poles one by one, and several people worked together to push the ladders out.

There are also soldiers of the Ming army, standing there with long spears, waiting for Jianlu to poke his head.

The other soldiers of the Ming army threw stones at the ladder, poured gold juice and so on.Don't be sure to hit or fall, just hit or fall on the ladder.

However, there are barbs on the head of the Jianlu ladder. If you don't push it away before the barb gets stuck on the battlement, it will be firmly hooked on the battlement, and it will be difficult to push it away.

Jianlu under the city was injured and fell down from time to time, but more Jianlu climbed along the ladder.

"kill……"

The sound of killing resounded over the sky of Jizhou City.

Jianlu came up, was poked by the soldiers of the Ming army on the top of the wall, and fell down screaming.

However, some Jianlu had been prepared for a long time, dodging the tip of the gun, and charged upwards with a grim expression.

Some Jianlu even grabbed the tip of the gun that had been stabbed in the past, took advantage of the situation, and tried to relay to the top of the city.

"Blah blah blah..."

The muskets on the top of the city began to ring out, and they greeted the Jianlu who took the lead.

There is also the Ming army reserve team on the side of the inner wall. Seeing the danger ahead, they also began to reinforce.

All of a sudden, under the head of the city of Jizhou, the casualties appeared immediately and increased rapidly.

Those Jian captives who were the first to climb the city were indeed brave, and from time to time there were powerful ones who were turned over to the top of the city by them.

Some were immediately stabbed to death by the Ming army on the top of the city, but some Jianlu blocked the counterattack of the Ming army and won the opportunity for subsequent Jianlu to go to the top of the city.

"kill……"

Amidst the thunderous shouts of killing, whether it was the Jianlu or the soldiers of the Ming army who were fighting, they didn't know anything else. They just stared at the opponent in front of them and tried every means to put them to death.

In the distance, seeing warriors from the Qing Dynasty climbing to the top of the city from time to time, Turge smiled and said to Abatai: "Even if the Ming army blocked the city gate, under the attack of our warriors from the Qing Dynasty, it will be impossible for this city to pass." Jizhou City can also be taken very quickly."

"That's right, maybe the Qing army will be able to have lunch in the city!" Fan Yongdou, who was next to him, immediately echoed with a flattering smile.

He was a businessman who knew he had to be valuable.But now, the only thing that is worthwhile is to flatter the Jurchens.At least for now, that's it.

After hearing this, Abatai didn't look at him, just stared at the city of Jizhou, laughed loudly and said: "This Jizhou is just for the Qing warriors to exercise their muscles and bones. The real good show is in Ludi!"

At this time, Kong Youde just came back to return to his command. Hearing his words, he immediately echoed: "This Jizhou City is a military town, and the gates are blocked with precautions. When we arrive in Ludi, we will definitely be able to open the city gates directly and attack those people." The city is the easiest!"

Although he is the king of obedience, he is of Han origin. Facing the Jian captives in front of him, even if his official position is much lower than him, he still has to bow down to flatter him.

The patriarchs of the Mongolian tribes were no exception. Seeing that Jizhou City was about to be captured, they all opened their mouths, scrambling to flatter Jianlu.

Abatai listened very comfortably, but before he had time to be happy, suddenly, the situation on the top of the city changed again.

It seems that those Qing warriors who rushed to the top of the city were quickly killed by the Ming army, or forced to leave the top of the city.

In those parts of the city wall where the competition was most fierce, the Ming army on the top of the city dropped fireballs one after another, and they spun and spewed fire and smoke under the base of the wall, so that the Qing warriors underneath became a mess and climbed to attack the top of the city. The rhythm suddenly stopped.

"The enemy of ten thousand people?" Turger immediately screamed when he saw it.

This ten-thousand-thousand enemy is really a sharp weapon for defending the city. He dropped the city head, spun fire, and sprayed poisonous smoke. The armor of the Qing warriors could not resist it at all.

But fortunately, it takes a lot of gunpowder and poison to fight an enemy of ten thousand people. Therefore, it is impossible for the Ming army to have too many.Of course, there may be more important military towns.

Seeing the city of Jizhou, with the help of the chaos caused by the tens of thousands of enemies, the gunners and archers of the Ming army began to fight back outside the city.

Without the cover of the chariot, when it was in a mess, Jianlu's side suffered a lot of losses.

The leaders of Jianlu in the distance outside the city suddenly lost their voices.All of them looked livid and looked at the city of Jizhou without speaking.

It can be seen that the generals of the Ming army in Jizhou City are capable of fighting, and the counterattack at critical moments is very powerful.And the timing of the choice is also good, let the Qing side fail, and the morale will be hit the most.

However, if you can't withstand the attack of the Qing warriors, you may take the opportunity to take down the city.That's why they think that the general of the Ming army in the city is a man who knows how to fight.

Otherwise, I would definitely not dare to fight like this, and I would not dare to let the warriors of the Qing Dynasty climb to the top of the city, and I would do my best from the beginning.

"Ming Jin!" After a while, Abatai ordered with a sullen face.

Morale has been reversed, the morale of the Qing side has been hit, and the morale of the Ming army on the top of the city has improved significantly. It is no longer suitable for continuing to fight, and it is necessary to adjust the tactics.

After issuing the military order, Abatai was about to turn back the tent of the Chinese army, but at this moment, he saw a scout horse flying towards him.
