Chapter 436 What a good suggestion! Hurry up and follow the good advice!
Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, Baoding.
Gunshots, explosions, and shouts of death suddenly sounded above the mausoleum where Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma were buried.
Of course, Sun Sike knew that the Ming army might climb up the hill where the top of Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum is located from other directions and launch a surprise attack!
And he also knew the importance of Baoding. Once Baoding was captured by the Ming army and the sun and moon flag, symbolizing the rebirth of the Ming Dynasty, was planted on Baoding in full view of the public, there would be no need to fight this battle.
Therefore, Sun Sike sent his son Sun Chengen to lead a thousand soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner New Army to garrison on Baoding and the square city next to Baoding.
When Zu Da led a battalion of Guangdong Hakka "mountain soldiers" to climb along the hillside to the vicinity of Baoding and Fangcheng, they were discovered by the sentinels sent by Sun Chengen. The two sides immediately climbed up the hillside near Baoding, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.
A fierce battle occurred!
From this perspective, the raid was not successful.
But Zu Dana had followed Zu Dashou, Zu Dale, and Zu Kefa out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and had extremely rich combat experience. He knew that Sun Sike's soldiers must have suffered heavy losses after fighting outside the Golden Gate until now, so he said
It may be on the verge of collapse. And the green signal flare rising from the top of Ming Tai Zu Bao may be the last blow to defeat Sun Sike!
Now... Zu Da doesn't need to really succeed in the raid. He only needs to pretend that the raid is successful, and the thousands of people under Sun Sike who are still holding on will collapse immediately.
Therefore, Zu Da, who was always getting stronger and stronger, personally led the Hakka soldiers to pretend to attack the hilltop where Ming Taizu's Baoding was located, and at the same time had people send signal bombs into the sky.
This great ancestor really worked hard. Regardless of his age and age, he took the lead and rushed to the front - this was "rescuing Zhu Yuanzhang"!
The first victory in the battle of Jiangning must belong to the person who planted the sun and moon flag on the top of Ming Taizu's treasure!
With this great achievement, when Zhu Heji ascends the throne, he will be able to make a fool of himself as a marquis.
Sun Sike's son Sun Cheng'en was also unambiguous. He also led his own soldiers to the Ming Taizu Baoding. He was going to fight to the death here!
Under the Hakka barracks led by Zu Da, there were two teams equipped with advanced flintlock rifles. Zu Da also charged forward with a flintlock rifle with a bayonet. When he rushed to the top of the treasure, he saw a bearded man.
The Zhenglan Banner warrior brandished a simple knife and roared towards him.
This is to use his physical strength to bully Zu Da, an elderly man!
Thinking of this, Zu Da gasped, raised the flintlock gun in his hand, aimed at the big man who was only seven or eight steps away from him, and fired a clean shot without waiting for him to hide.
The bullet was pushed out of the muzzle by the heat generated by the detonation of the gunpowder, and unceremoniously penetrated the cloth armor of the strong bannerman and hit his chest. The strong bannerman felt something was hit on his chest.
After one blow, severe pain came, and all the strength in his body immediately disappeared without a trace... Let alone cutting people, he couldn't even stand still. When his feet softened, his whole body collapsed.
He fell on the yang side. When he fell on the grave of Zhu Yuanzhang, a terrifying loud sound of "Qiu Qiuqiu" suddenly came to his ears. He turned his head and looked with the little strength left, and saw that in the sky
Hundreds of flames appeared, roaring towards the new Zhenglan Banner army gathered on Sun Quan's tomb and Shinto.
Zu Da also saw this scene, and immediately got up and shouted: "The Ming Dynasty has won! The Ming Dynasty has won!"
As soon as he shouted, the Hakka soldiers who rushed up with him immediately became fanatical, and everyone shouted: "Win, win..."
One of the strong men carrying a sun and moon flag ran up to Uncle Zu and shouted, "Master, Master, have you won?"
"Win! Win...Hurry up and plant the flag for me!"
"But we haven't reached the top yet!" The strong man is a real person. He has only just rushed to the waist of Baoding, and the top is still in the hands of the Qing army.
"Insert!" Zu Dadao said, "Insert first...this is called cheating!"
As he spoke, he put his flintlock gun on his back, and then personally worked with the strong man to drive the flag firmly into the mud!
A gust of northwest wind blew from the Yangtze River, blowing the big flag and fluttering in the wind.
...
"Won, won, won..."
I saw green signal bombs rising into the sky one after another from Zhu Yuanzhang's grave, and I saw an eye-catching sun and moon flag with a red background fluttering in the wind.
The Ming soldiers at Dajinmen, Xiamafang, and waiting at the foot of Purple Mountain, preparing to launch a counterattack, shouted the loudest.
"Dong dong dong dong..."
The drumbeat of the general attack immediately resounded through the sky!
The infantrymen of the Second Town of the Ming Army, who had already moved behind the "trench line", heard the drums of the attack, and began to clamber over the earth wall in battalion units. Holding muskets and spears, they headed towards the big army.
An attack was launched in the direction of Kinmen.
Behind them, dozens of small mortars were lined up in a row, firing super-caliber sugar bullets at the Golden Gate at the fastest speed. Inside and outside the Golden Gate, large swaths of smoke and fire suddenly rose up, and the shells exploded like fragments.
A storm swept through the entire Qing army's position. The fragments of the anti-horse guns placed outside the door were blown up in all directions, and the bricks and stones on the walls of the Golden Gate fell straight down. The smoke enveloped the entire front in an instant.
The Qing army, which was almost unable to attack, immediately became a mess, running around to avoid the artillery fire, and some people simply rushed towards the mountains and forests on both sides of the Golden Gate.
At the same time, there were roaring rockets in the sky, one after another, hitting the Sifang City, Shinto, and Sun Quan's Tomb behind the Golden Gate, falling on the Qing troops gathered there.
In fact, the accuracy of these rockets was limited. If the Ming army was not too familiar with the terrain of Ming Xiaoling, these rockets would not have been able to directly bombard the Qing army's rear assembly area.
The rocket launchers developed by Zhu Heji were actually used to replace cannons and were to be placed in front of the formation for direct aim. But now they are indirect aim... Oh, it's not even indirect aim. It's just nonsense.
Fight. But there are still many rockets that accurately landed on Sifang City, Shinto, and Sun Quan's tomb, and exploded!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The Qing army gathered there immediately couldn't stand it anymore... Who can stand standing there and being bombarded by rockets? Can't stand it
Then they have to hide, so the new Eight Banners soldiers who were bombed will all go into the woods on the edge. As long as they disperse and go into the woods, those rockets will not be able to kill a few people.
But the problem is that they not only dispersed the team, but also dispersed the people...the team can be reassembled after the team is dispersed, but no one can organize resistance after the people are dispersed.
Now, these new Zhenglan Banner troops under Sun Sike not only believe that "the treasure summit has been lost" and "the battle has been defeated", but they also believe that as long as they surrender, they can avoid death and get their travel expenses back home.
In this case, why bother? What's the point of giving away your life in vain? They don't love Kang Mazi that much.
"It's over, it's over, the Qing Dynasty is over!"
In the ears of Sun Sike, who had climbed onto the gate tower of the Golden Gate, a panicked cry suddenly rang out. When he looked around, he saw nothing but a tragic scene of defeat. On the not-wide battlefield, there were everywhere.
Groups of blue flag soldiers fled into the woods.
The Ming army was like a tide attacking toward the top of Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum. It was unstoppable!
Sun Sike's own generals' flags have disappeared. There are not many loyal Goshiha around him. Moreover, the gate tower of the Golden Gate where he is is surrounded by Ming army generals with high morale.
But those people didn't know that Sun Sike was on the gate tower, so they kept rushing up the mountain.
However, Sun Sike also knew that he could not escape. Purple Mountain was an isolated mountain surrounded by the outer city of Nanjing, and the outer city was already controlled by the Ming army. No one could break through and fight out.
And if he was to fall into Zhu Heji's hands, he would have to be stabbed one after another!
Thinking of this, he turned back and looked north - not at Zhu Yuanzhang's crown, but at the northern sky.
People can't go back, but their souls can still fly back... just fly faster and don't let Zhu Yuanzhang's soul catch him!
