The killings continued. From time to time, some Qing soldiers who slipped through the net attacked the city and then turned around and started killing the Korean soldiers on the city wall. Although the Korean soldiers, led by their respective officers, launched a counterattack to drive those Qing soldiers off the city.
However, most of the Qing soldiers who were the first to attack the city were elite horse-armor soldiers of the Qing army. Their skills were extraordinary. After a slight delay, more Qing soldiers climbed up. Slowly, the Qing soldiers gathered on the city wall.
A small crowd.
Seeing this scene, the North Korean leader Li Zhu's face turned pale. He held a scimitar at his waist tightly, slowly turned around and said to the concubine beside him: "My dear concubine, it seems that here today...
This is where you and I are buried."
Concubine Xian's fair face was full of tears. She slowly held Li Zhu's hand, but her face was full of tenderness: "Why did your Highness say this? I have spent the happiest ten years with Your Highness."
After eight years, I have no regrets in my life. The only ones I worry about are Xuezhu and Xuanhao. But one of them is in Ming Dynasty and the other is on Jianghua Island. Their children and grandchildren will be happy, so I no longer worry about them.
After finishing speaking, Concubine Xian took out a sharp dagger from her waist and placed it across her chest. She smiled calmly and said: "When those Qing soldiers rush up later, Your Highness does not have to worry about me. I will take care of myself."
If you end it, you will never be insulted by the Qing soldiers."
"My dear concubine!" Li Zhu held Xian Fei's hand tightly and was speechless for a long time, feeling sad in his heart.
After a while, Li Zhu also slowly took out the scimitar from his waist. The two of them smiled sadly at each other and pointed the weapons at their chests.
At this time, the guard next to him saw something was wrong and rushed over to stop the two of them. He begged: "Your Highness, Concubine Xian, you can't do it! Let us escort you out!"
"It's too late." At this time, Li Zhu said sadly: "As the king of Korea alone, I must not live an ignoble existence. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty even said that the emperor guarded the country. Although I am unworthy, I will never have the courage to die for my country.
.”
"Your Highness!" All the guards surrounded the two men, trying to dissuade them and trying to seize the sword. There was chaos on the tower.
Just when there was chaos on the tower, a drum sound seemed to be heard from afar, and as the drum sound got closer, the sound of horse hooves also came from the west.
"Did the Tatars come to reinforce again?" The desperate Li Shu laughed miserably, but the current situation was already bad and couldn't get any worse. Even if the Qing troops came to reinforce again, how bad could it be.
Just when Li Zhu raised his scimitar again, a soldier ran from the city wall. He jumped up and down and knelt down in front of Li Xi, with uncontrollable ecstasy in his tone.
, "Your Majesty, we are saved, the Ming army is coming, our reinforcements are here!"
"What? Reinforcements have arrived!"
The sudden surprise made Li Zhu feel dizzy. His body shook for a while and he was about to fall. Concubine Xian on the side quickly supported him and helped him stabilize his body.
Li Shu stabilized his body, swallowed hard and asked eagerly: "From which direction did the Ming army's reinforcements come? How many people came?"
"You can't see clearly, but there must be four to five thousand people. They are heading towards us from the direction of Incheon."
"Okay, okay!" Li Zhu said three good words in a row. Overjoyed, he immediately said to the guards around him: "Tell everyone immediately that our reinforcements have arrived. Everyone work harder and drive all the Qing soldiers off the city wall immediately.
!”
"yes!"
After learning about the arrival of reinforcements, the Korean soldiers who had been retreating steadily under the attack of the Qing army suddenly became more courageous, and under the leadership of their officers, they began to launch a counterattack against the Qing army.
The sudden sound of drums not only inspired the leader of North Korea, Li Zhu, but Amin, who was more than a mile away from the North City Wall, also heard the familiar sound of drums.
"Ming Army, the Ming Army is coming!" Amin, who was very familiar with this kind of drum sound, immediately identified the origin of the drum sound.
The flesh on Amin's face trembled, and he said in a muffled voice: "Humph, it's really the wrong time to come. If I had come half an hour later, I would have captured this city."
However, as a general of the Qing army, he will naturally not let his own emotions affect his judgment. He knows very well that the most important thing now is not to allow the Ming army to enter the city and join the Koreans, otherwise they want to capture it again
This city is much more difficult.
Thinking of this, Amin decisively sent his only remaining mobile force, 5,000 elite cavalry and 5,000 infantry, to the west to prevent the Ming army from entering Nanshan and Seoul.
One mile west of Seoul in Nanshan, there are two thousand riflemen in front, one thousand cavalry guarding the left and right sides, signed sword and shield soldiers and pikemen behind, and one thousand baggage soldiers and hundreds of baggage vehicles in the middle.
, heading towards the west gate of Seoul City in Nanshan, and there were hundreds of Ye Bu Shu who were wandering around constantly investigating.
Listening to the heavy drumbeats coming from around him, and looking at the troops marching in neat formation, Pang Gang felt a burst of pride in his chest. This is his army, which is equipped with the most advanced and most advanced equipment in this era.
The army with sharp firearms will follow them to fight in this vast continent, preventing this troubled nation from being invaded and ravaged by aliens again, and at the same time, they will also build a great reputation for this country and nation!
"Report!" A Yebuzui came to Pang Gang. He raised his left hand parallel to his chest, gave Pang Gang a military salute and said loudly: "Report to the general, there are more than 2,000 Tatars in front of us.
We formed a formation to try to prevent us from entering the city from the west gate, and tens of thousands of Tatars came from the north to try to flank our army!"
"Okay, I get it!" After Pang Gang waved his hand to let the night go, he immediately called Da Zhuang and Li Yuan and said: "Da Zhuang, you are now leading a thousand riflemen to lead the battle for me. You must
Use the fastest speed to open up the passage into the city. Li Qianhu, you also bring a thousand riflemen to protect the left wing of our army. You must not let the Qing soldiers get close to our army. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I humbly obey my orders!"
Dazhuang and Li Yuan took the order and left. Soon the two thousand riflemen who were at the front were immediately divided into two teams, one in front and one on the left. The cavalry on the left also turned around.
They left the pier and headed towards the right wing of our formation. Their mission was to prevent the right wing from being threatened by the enemy.
The task of attacking the west wall of Nanshan Seoul was assigned to two Jia La Zhangjing. At first, they received a report from spies that there were about 4,000 to 5,000 Ming troops to reinforce Nanshan Seoul. After that, they did not take it seriously at first and only sent a thousand infantrymen.
The soldiers drove away these Ming troops. They thought they knew the combat power of the Ming army very well and thought that a thousand troops were enough.
However, a messenger brought Er Beile's latest order, ordering them to send out most of their troops to intercept this Ming army. If they could intercept it outside the west gate before their own large forces arrived, it would be a great achievement.
When they first heard this order, the two Jia La Zhang Jing burst into laughter.
"Er Beile is too careful, isn't it? When did a mere four to five thousand Ming troops become so fearful to us? Do we still need the entire army to dispatch them to destroy them?"
Another Jia La Zhangjing said with a smile: "Well, since it is Er Beile's order, we will naturally obey it. I will take two thousand warriors over first to drive away those Ming troops. You can continue to attack the city."
"Well, that's okay!" The original Jia La Zhangjing nodded.
"Scum!"
"Hurry up, follow up, no one is allowed to fall behind!" Da Zhuang urged a thousand riflemen as they trotted towards the west gate.
"Sir, the Tatars are coming!" Someone reported from the front.
Da Zhuang looked up, but no, thousands of Qing soldiers wearing red armor were lining up and striding toward him: "Okay, everyone, stop and line up! Load your guns!"
Following Da Zhuang's order, a thousand riflemen stopped, took off their rifles from their shoulders, took out the ammunition from the pockets on their waists, and began to reload. Suddenly there was a clicking sound all around.
Looking at the dust and smoke raised by the Qing soldiers in front of him, Da Zhuang sneered in his heart, and ordered Daming to the people around him: "Everyone pay attention, no one is allowed to shoot without my order, and anyone who shoots indiscriminately will be killed!"
Follow me now!"
"Whoosh!"
After giving the order, Da Zhuang led the riflemen and walked most of the way forward in an orderly manner.
As the two armies approached, both sides gradually saw each other's figure and face clearly.
The armors of the Qing soldiers in front of me were all painted red. At first glance, they looked quite similar to the armors of the Ming army.
The two groups of soldiers and horses approached quickly, and the air was filled with tension. Even the Korean and Qing troops who were fighting fiercely on the west city wall stopped fighting and quietly looked at the two sides approaching quickly below the city.
The distance between the two sides soon approached 150 steps. Da Zhuang quickly ordered the riflemen to stop advancing. After standing still, they immediately raised their guns levelly and pointed their guns at the Qing troops who were rushing over in a dense formation.
, only to hear Da Zhuang’s thick voice rang out in front of the formation.
"put!"
"Bang bang bang..."
Different from the blunderbuss originally used, the sound of the minigun was very crisp. Amidst the bursts of crisp sounds, the Qing army that was originally swarming suddenly fell down like wheat.
"What's going on? How could the Ming army's firearms be so powerful!" Jia Lazhangjing, who was commanding the Qing army to charge, was shocked when he saw this. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, looked forward, and appeared in front of him.
The scene was still the same as before, with countless Qing soldiers lying in a pool of blood.
"Bang bang bang..."
Before Jia La Zhangjing could react, the second volley of guns rang out again less than tens of seconds later. I originally thought that after the Ming army fired one shot, they would not be able to fire a second shot in a short period of time.
Another dozen Qing troops fell...
Two consecutive uninterrupted blows stunned the Qing soldiers. Everyone, including the two Jia La Zhangjing, was stunned on the spot.
