    "Boom boom boom!"

    The Eight Banners of Manchuria, which was about to shoot heavy arrows, was suddenly blown up by more than ten thousand enemies.

    Explosion is an adjective, because it is less powerful, and it depends on the exploding shrapnel to hurt people.  The most disgusting thing is that it is mixed with lime and chili noodles. Not only the Eight Banners soldiers who are shooting heavy arrows suffer, but even the follow-up troops climbing the ladder can't open their eyes.

    "Rush again!"

    Aobai covered his mouth and nose, stood behind the car and yelled.

    "Boom boom boom boom!"

    Just when Oboi reorganized his charge, the artillery on the city rang out again.  It was Dorgon who suddenly invested a large number of troops on both sides of the north city wall. The Datong Army stopped firing just now, and it was also adjusting the shooting direction.

    The generals of the Qing army who often attacked the city under artillery fire were very keen to find that the artillery of the Datong army seemed to concentrate on the gap in the defense wall.

    So the Eight Banners soldiers gave up the chariot and ran quickly carrying a simple ladder.

    ?Because the tunnels of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties had been dug very far ahead, when the Datong Army adjusted the artillery positions, thousands of Eight Banners soldiers had already rushed out of the artillery range.  The artillery of the Datong Army can only hit the tail of the enemy troops.

    It is not the negligence of the defenders, but the method of tunneling and attacking the city has worked. The tunneling work forty to fifty days before the Qing Dynasty was not for nothing.

    Of course, they rushed to the city so quickly, and they couldn't carry a real siege ladder.

    A real ladder, like a cart, has to be pushed, and the speed is not much faster than a cart.

    "Bang bang bang!"

    The guns couldn't shoot at an angle, and the firecrackers on the city wall opened fire one after another.

    These Eight Banners soldiers rushed out of the range of the artillery, but they were not really close to the city wall. They could not attack with rolling logs or falling rocks, and could only use firecrackers or bows and arrows.

    At the cost of more than 300 people coming back, thousands of firecrackers ran sideways, carrying simple wooden ladders to the vicinity of the gap in the city wall.

    Thousands of enemies can't hit them, or in other words, these Eight Banners soldiers follow their mouths and noses, ignoring the explosion of ten thousand enemies at all.  Anyway, the explosion is not very powerful, and after wearing double armor, they are not afraid of shrapnel. As long as they can hold lime and chili noodles, at most they will be injured by shrapnel, and those who are killed on the spot are unlucky.

    Finally, the Eight Banners soldiers attacked the earth-stone platform where the city wall had collapsed, and the Eight Banners soldiers behind them also threw stabbing arrows.

    "Bang bang bang!"

    There was a salvo of firecrackers head-on, and with the cooperation of tens of thousands of enemies, Man Qing's round of offensive failed again, and the survivors who rushed forward fled in succession.

    "kill!"

    Aobai hacked a rout soldier to death, led the charge with a limp leg, and climbed up as quickly as a normal person.

    The firecrackers had already retreated to reload, and the rattan players and pikemen quickly made up for it, poking at the enemy at the edge of the earth-rock platform.

    This position is very narrow and cannot accommodate many firecrackers. If all of them are replaced with flintlock guns, more will definitely be able to stand.

    The rattan players of the Datong Army squatted and raised their shields to protect their bodies. If they stood up, their legs would be cut off easily.  The pikemen stuck behind them, stabbed their spears above the shield, and killed the Eight Banners soldiers who were trying to climb up.

    Aobai was shot twice, but he dodged in time, so he was not hit vitally, and even suffered only minor injuries after wearing the double armor.

    This guy was extremely fierce, seeing that he was about to be poked down, he even reached out and grabbed a rattan token, trying to drag the rattan token player down together.

    The rattan player could only give up the shield, swung his knife and looked at Aobai's left hand holding the shield.

    The middle finger and ring finger of Aobai's left hand were cut off on the spot, and his whole body fell from the simple wooden ladder.

    "Shhhhhhh!"

    The Manchu and Qing archers in the rear shot heavy arrows obliquely upwards from close range.

    In an instant, there were more than a dozen spears with arrows in their hands, and a few heavy arrows from the Qing Dynasty even shot through the rattan badge of the Datong Army.

    "Boom boom boom!"

    More than 200,000 enemy bombs were thrown down again, and they were thrown at the Eight Banners soldiers gathered in the rear.  The gunfire soldiers also moved to the city wall and shot at the Eight Banners soldiers below.

    At the same time, the firearms soldiers of the Han Army Banner of Wuzhenchao Harbin also shot at the Datong Army on the earth-stone platform.

    Until now, this place has finally turned into a flesh and blood mill, and the number of casualties on both sides is rising linearly.

    After being shot out of the gap by heavy arrows and firecrackers, the Eight Banners soldiers in the front row took the opportunity to rush up the earth and stone platform, and the offensive and defensive sides fought together in complete melee.

    However, the death rate in close combat has decreased instead. Everyone is armored, and the enemy cannot be hacked to death even after a long time.  On the contrary, it is firecrackers and tens of thousands of enemies, which have been causing damage to the enemy's follow-up troops.  The enemy's stabbing arrows are also constantly thrown, and they can always hit a few Datong troops in the rear.

    Siege battles broke out on the east and west walls at this time.

    The soldiers of the Eight Banners pushed the chariot and the ladder, and soon approached the city."While the two brothers were whispering, Man Dahai's soldiers with red flags were ordered by Dorgon to step up their attack.

    Man Dahai didn't dare to disobey the military order, so he had to send troops to push the carts and ladders, and ran to the north city wall to attack the city. The pressure on Hauge's two blue flags suddenly dropped.

    At the gap in the city wall, corpses have piled up into mountains.

    ? Since the two sides strangled each other, the Datong Army has only retreated four meters on the earth-rock platform, and the price paid is more than 300 people killed in battle.

    As for the Eight Banners soldiers who attacked the gap, thousands of them were killed and more than 2,000 were injured. Most of the wounded were bombed out by the enemy.

    Oboi, the number one warrior in Manchuria, became lame even though his leg injury healed.  Now, with two fingers cut off on his left hand and seven or eight wounds on his body, they are still fighting there.

    "Boom boom boom boom!"

    Another ten thousand enemy bombs fell on them, and the Eight Banners soldiers who were climbing the earthen platform finally couldn't bear it, and were blown to pieces on the spot.

    "kill!"

    ?The Datong officer who led the team to guard the gap was called Li Fuguo. He took the opportunity to order a counterattack, and immediately transformed from a defensive position to a charge.

    "Well¡­¡­"

    Aobai stared wide-eyed, then fell on his back and was stabbed in the throat by Li Fuguo.

    The Eight Banners soldiers at Tushitai were killed back, and the Datong Army once again fully grasped the gap in the city wall. The Manchu Qing had to reorganize an attack.  </div&gt
