Jixiha quickly got a reply, and an arrow shot to the front of the formation. After taking apart the notes tied to it, he sneered repeatedly.

If a person seeks death, he cannot save him even if he is a god.

The self-righteous Mingdog will pay the price today.

"Send orders to start siege!"

The order of Jessica was issued very decisively.

He has an absolute advantage in military strength, even if he relies on his life, he will be enough to win.

However, this time the one who charged forward was no longer the Qing army's green camp, but the strong men captured by them.

These unarmed men were driven forward by the Qing army and rushed forward, knowing that they would die, their eyes were full of despair.

What's the solution? From the moment they were captured by the Qing army, their fate was already destined. They either died of exhaustion on the marching road or died of filling in ditches while siegeing the city.

If they did not rush to the city, they would have their heads chopped off by the Qing soldiers, and there was no essential difference.

It is a moment to live.

"Damn it! It seems that the person who rushed over was not the Qing soldiers, but the common people!"

Wang Ermazi discovered this immediately and was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

In fact, this was the usual method of the Qing army.

It was just that last time Jishiha despised them too much and was too lazy to use them.

This time, Jixiha learned his lessons and included driving the people to siege the city into the entire plan.

Thousands of ordinary people rushed towards the city wall, and the impact of the determination was really unacceptable.

"Damn Tartars, they're really not human!"

"What should the general do now?"

The soldiers all looked at Wang Ermazi with helpless expressions.

Wang Ermazi thought to himself, you ask me, who will I ask?

At this moment, Gan Hui said in a deep voice: "It is better to use cannons to bombard the distance, so that they can intimidate these chargers without hurting them. Then, they can call on people to stop attacking and fleeing their lives."

Gan Hui's suggestion made Wang Ermazi's eyes lit up.

Yes, why didn't he expect it?

The Ming army had artillery, and the role of artillery could be fully reflected at this time. First, call on the people to let them escape, and then use firepower to suppress the Qing army so that they dare not rush up to kill the fleeing people.

This is the best choice for the current situation.

"Send the order, the gunner is ready to shoot! Look at the front of the Tartars! In addition, I shouted at me at the top of my voice, asking the villagers to escape quickly!"

Of course, Wang Ermazi knew that not all the people could escape, but it was better than if they all died by filling trenches or being killed by the Qing army.

In this case, one can escape.

The Ming soldiers followed the order and did as they did.

The artillery fired fire to suppress the fire, and the rest of the soldiers shouted: "Group, go and run away, the Tartars will not be able to chase you now!"

"Friends, please run away, don't be scapegoats for the Tartars!"

"We won't hit you, run away!"

I have to say that this shouting really worked.

The people who were charging instinctively stopped when they heard the sound.

They stared blankly at the Ming soldiers who were shouting desperately on the top of the city, and it took them a long time to understand.

Can they still survive? Still have a chance to survive?

Since there is hope of living, who wants to die?

It is definitely not possible to run back, but they can run to the side.

At this moment, the people's instinct for survival played a role, and they turned around and fled in all directions.

"Run quickly! The villagers, the Tartars were suppressed by fire and dared not catch up."

Seeing that there was an effect, Wang Ermazi shouted loudly.

He was so excited that he saved countless lives.

The insidiousness of the Tartars can be seen from this, but not everyone ignores life like the Tartars. Especially these people are still fellow Han compatriots.

Although the Ming army paid some artillery and ammunition for this, Wang Ermazi thought it was worth it.

When Jixiha saw the chargers suddenly turn around and flee in all directions, his lungs were about to explode.

These doggy things!

If the Ming army had not been too fierce, he would have ordered people to chase after him and cut all the escaped people to death!

But now this is obviously impossible.

In a furious manner, Jixiha ordered the Qing army to push out the prepared cannons and bombard them at the top of the city.

It is impolite to come but not go back. Who can't fire a gun? Come and hurt each other.

The Qing army's cannons were red-clothed cannons, which were even more powerful than the Ming army's cannons.

After one shot, the Ming army's battlements were shattered, and more than a dozen Ming soldiers on the city were crushed to death.

"hiss!"

The shell exploded dozens of steps away from Wang Ermazi, which scared Wang Ermazi to gasp.

The Qing army's artillery was indeed sharp, and compared with the small cannons brought by the Guo family, it was much inferior.

However, at this time, you cannot gain the ambition of others and destroy your own might. Wang Ermazi lowered his fear and roared: "Stay on fire, why are you standing there? You can't lose to the Tartars!"

If the power is not enough, let's make up for it.

Fortunately, the Ming army had more artillery numbers than the Qing army, and the power of concentrated and dense bombardment should not be underestimated.

The two sides fought each other, and each suffered casualties, but neither of them made an absolute advantage.

Jixiha's face was as deep as water.

All this was within his expectations.

This group of Ming thieves are very good at taking advantage of the city and shooting from a high point, so they can maximize their advantages in artillery.

"The Green Camp soldiers are pressing over, and the three walls attack at the same time!"

Although the Ming army continued to fire, Jixiha still issued an order to attack.

In comparison, the closer the city wall is to the city wall, the less the artillery can't hit them, and naturally the less powerful it is.

On the contrary, it is dangerous to keep holding the troops in the formation. This step is always something that needs to be taken, and naturally the earlier the better.

"Go ahead, those who climb to the top of the city first will receive a thousand taels of silver!"

Under the temptation of rewarding silver, the soldiers of the Green Camp rushed towards the city wall like greedy flies.

As a centurion, Liu Guiqing had nearly a hundred soldiers under his command.

He was mainly attacking Ximen. Like other Qing soldiers who charged the Green Camp, they did not have much protection, only a wooden shield and a horizontal knife.

As the first round of charge, he knew very well that his mission was to lay the foundation as well as possible and survive.

"Kill! Kill the enemy!"

The Qing army gradually rushed to the range of archery shooting, and Wang Ermazi ordered the archers to shoot.

Faced with such a intensive charge, the Ming soldiers did not even need to aim, they just needed to put arrows on the string and shoot them out with all their might.

No matter what, you will definitely hit someone!

"Swoosh!"

"puff!"

An arrow shot out and pierced through the neck of a Qing soldier.

His Qing soldiers continued to rush forward due to inertia, but their bodies fell down after running a few steps.

He grabbed the arrow with both hands and tried to pull it out. But it was naturally futile. Not long after, his body began to twitch violently and soon there was no movement.
