Chapter 355

The battle situation in Dongcheng was very fierce, and the same was true for the North Gate where Kuidong Xuns were responsible for attacking.

At the same time as Zheng Chenggong gave the order, Li Laiheng also issued an order to attack the general.

Compared with Zheng Chenggong's Iron Man Army, the thirteen Kuidong families suffered a little loss in the equipment of soldiers' armor, but they were not inferior to Zheng Chenggong in terms of number and quality of soldiers.

They are even richer than Zheng Chenggong in terms of siege experience.

This does not refer to the tactic of killing the city by coffin or sneak attack or bombing of hot air balloons, but the kind of attack with real swords and guns. Long before His Majesty the Emperor decided to attack Chongqing, the Thirteen Kuidong families had attacked Chongqing more than once under the leadership of Wen Anzhi.

If Ertan hadn't rebelled and turned against each other, they would have won Chongqing one year earlier.

So in terms of ability to attack cities, they are at least on the same level as the army of the emperor, King Jin.

Li Laiheng is obviously becoming more and more confident now.

Whether it is placing troops or scheduling on the spot, they are becoming more and more general-style.

The North Gate is the most densely populated city gate of the enemy. This can be seen from the densely packed enemy soldiers on the top of the city.

Therefore, Li Laiheng decided to divide his troops and attack as much as possible to reduce the damage of the enemy.

Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun and Li Laiheng led their troops to attack from different angles to form a horn force.

They seemed to be divided and connected, and the separation and reunion made the Qing soldiers unable to understand it.

The Qing soldiers on the top of the city were obviously stunned.

Is there such a trick?

Their bows and arrows were bent and their shooting was not very good.

After all, this Ming army has a lot of experience in the battlefield and knows how to use positioning bunkers to protect themselves.

In addition, their armor is pretty good, and their vital points are basically covered.

Of course, casualties cannot be avoided.

From time to time, soldiers were caught in arrows and fell down, but the momentum of the Ming army's charge did not slow down.

Because the gunpowder is damp, neither party can use the firearm.

The battlefield without artillery fire seemed to reveal a hint of weirdness everywhere.

"Kill the enemy!"

Of course, this may not be a good thing for the army.

At least during the siege, the chargers will not be damaged by artillery fire.

Soon they rushed to the corner of the city.

The advantage of the Kuidong Ming Army is its flexibility and its climbing skills.

Like the Dachang soldiers under Yuan Zongdi, they often need to climb to the rock wall to chisel salt, and they have developed the ability to fly over the eaves and walk around the walls.

When facing the towering city walls, their advantages are fully reflected.

It is no problem to climb cliffs without a hand, let alone climbing mere city walls with ladders?

When the Qing army threw down the rolling wooden stone, they could even slightly adjust it to the nearby ladder to avoid it.

This is something other soldiers can't do.

This obviously scared the Qing soldiers on the city wall.

They had never seen such a flexible soldier, and they could not suck them by rolling wood, and they could not shoot them by arrows. They were like loaches in ponds, and they could always escape without a trace.

The Ming army of Kuidong climbed towards the city at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a short while, it had reached halfway.

"hiss!"

Seeing this, Qing General, who was guarding the north gate, gasped in a deep breath.

Following this momentum, it won’t take long to climb up!

"Water the boiling oil quickly. I won't believe it anymore, even you can hide from the boiling oil!"

The Qing soldiers had already set up several large pots at the top of the city to cook boiling oil, and at this moment they poured the burned boiling oil along the ladder set up by the Ming army.

This move is obviously very vicious.

No matter how flexible the Kuidong Ming army was, no matter how jumped between the ladders, they still had to climb up through the ladders. They were either on this ladder or on that ladder. There was no difference in essence.

In this case, boiling oil is a killer weapon.

The Qing soldiers did not need to aim at people at all, they just needed to aim at each ladder.

"ah!"

The boiling boiling oil poured on the hands and instantly burned blood bubbles.

The soldiers of the Kuidong Ming army instinctively let go of their hands and leaned back and lost their center of gravity and fell down.

Li Laiheng's face was a little solemn.

I have to say that this is indeed a highly targeted method, and Li Laiheng does not have any good counter-targeting method.

I could only order my men to continue to attack the city, hoping that the Tatars would have a shortage of boiling oil.

"Haha Ming's dog was poured down, just like a dog who fell into the water!"

Seeing that this move had worked, Qing Jiang laughed unrestrainedly. He completely forgot what he had panicked before, and was so scared that he almost pissed his pants.

"Minggou is really overestimating his abilities. He dares to attack with this little bit of strength."

"Kill me! Don't let a Ming dog climb to the top of the city."

Geng Jimao was tied tightly in the government office, and his dozen of his followers were even more miserable, not only were they tied up like dead pigs, but they were also thrown into the woodshed.

More than a dozen people were crowded in the narrow woodshed, so stuffy that it was disgusting.

At least Geng Jimao can live alone in a single room, and eat and drink with someone to serve him. He is very inconvenient to move, and even he has to use a chamber pot and a toilet.

Geng Jimao had never suffered such humiliation. He had already cut off the two bitches of Hong Chengchou and Zhang Chaolin in his heart.

"Come here, I want to drink water!"

Geng Jimao shouted loudly.

In a short while, a man pushed open the door and walked in.

He held a cowhide bag in his hand and walked to Geng Jimao with a charming smile on his face, pulled out the plug and squatted down and said, "I'm serving the prince to drink water."

"snort!"

Geng Jimao snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "You still know the truth."

He was indeed very thirsty, so he bit his cowhide and sucked it up.

The Qing soldiers cooperated to raise the cowhide bag to raise some angles, so that Geng Jimao would taste more comfortable.

Gudong Gudong

Geng Jimao took half a bottle in one breath and then let go.

"Your prince is full?"

"Um."

Geng Jimao leaned backward on the pillar.

"How is the situation outside now?"

"this"

The Qing soldiers were obviously hesitant, and he didn't know whether he should tell Geng Jimao.

Geng Jimao couldn't help laughing loudly and said, "I have been tied up like this by you. Are you still afraid that I will run away?"

"this"

The Qing soldiers hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted their teeth and said, "To be honest, the fight has started outside. The Ming thieves have begun a full-scale attack on the city."

"oh?"

Geng Jimao pretended to be calm, but said sarcastically: "Then Hong Chengchou should be busy on the city wall at this moment, right?"

"Jingluo Hong and Governor Zhang are both supervising the battle at the city wall at this moment."

Geng Jimao secretly thought in his mind that Hong Chengchou must have used the Geng family army. Otherwise, the Jiangxi Green Camp troops would not be enough to defend Nanchang.

Although his subordinates were unwilling to do so, they could only temporarily obey Hong Chengchou when they took into account his life.

However, the Ming army's siege was undoubtedly a great opportunity to escape for Geng Jimao, so he was naturally a little moved
