Jierhalang didn't need to think about it, but he also knew that Dorgon saw that the situation was not good and broke through first. Therefore, he attracted the attention and most of the Ming army's troops.
In this way, although the Ming army at the east gate had no flaws, it lacked the support of friendly forces. This gave Jierhalang an opportunity to break through.
Zhong Jinwei, who was at the head of the south gate city, saw that the west gate was finally blocked, so he changed his attention. Because of the lessons learned from the west gate, his vision began to become broader. Using a telescope to observe every corner of Shenyang City, not only did he build The movements of the captives, including the Ming army themselves, were also under their radar.
He knew that the old commander Yuan Keli was personally in charge of the north gate. From the movements at the north gate, it could be seen that Guan Ning's army had sufficient strength and was able to attack in the middle of defense. Everything was impeccable.
Then Zhong Jinwei looked at the east gate again. He Kegang and Huang Degong were not reckless. They also advanced gradually after taking control of the east gate.
Just when he wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he found a larger wave of Jianlu coming out from all directions and heading towards the east gate.
Zhong Jinwei immediately became nervous again. He looked at it carefully for a while and immediately ordered: "Send an order to the east gate, telling them not to attack any more and to return to defend the east gate and block the exit to prevent the Jianlu from escaping through the east gate."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." Wang Peng agreed this time, then immediately got off the arrow tower and rode from the top of the city to the east gate.
Zhong Jinwei frowned and looked at it for a while, and then issued another order: "Order Cao Wenzhao to change the direction of attack, attack towards the east gate, and stab Jianlu in the back."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." The servant agreed and turned around.
In conveying the general orders of Marquis Zhongxing on the battlefield, it is best to use the Fan Service. Because this campaign is unique, everyone knows that only among the guards around Zhongxing Marquis, there are Fan Service.
At the east gate, He Kegang was guarding the city gate, while Huang Degong led the fusiliers to attack and advance.
There were fewer and fewer Jianlu in front of them, so Huang Degong's troops gradually accelerated their advance and slowly moved away from the east city gate.
But after reaching a certain distance, when the fight was going smoothly, they suddenly began to encounter resistance. Huang Degong faced more and more Jianpi prisoners, and they no longer surrendered. They all rushed towards the Ming army like crazy.
But the situation at the east gate cannot be compared with that at the west gate. There are enough Ming troops here. On the wide main road, there are many rows of fusiliers. They take turns shooting, turning the Jianlu who are rushing over like crazy into corpses. The corpses were piled high in a pile.
But even so, Jianlu kept charging.
Huang Degong sneered in his heart. How many lives were on the line? He then ordered the rear troops to follow quickly to prevent possible accidents.
Just as he was bringing up all the rear troops, suddenly a messenger came galloping from the rear and gave an order to Huang Degong: "The Marquis has ordered that Jianlu break out from the east gate. Your troops will immediately shrink and focus on guarding the east gate. "
Huang Degong did not have the courage to disobey the order of Marquis Zhongxing. Although he felt that it was more than enough to deal with the Jianlu in front of him, he still followed the general's order and began to retreat slowly.
But at this time, countless Jianlu suddenly appeared from both sides of the main road and began to attack them, blocking Huang Degong's retreat to the east gate.
"Damn, so many people died in front, just to attract my attention." Huang Degong said harshly, and then started to mobilize troops and generals again, adjusting the combat deployment, in order to open the way back to the east gate.
But Jianlu was still so crazy that they even used their corpses to block Huang Degong's way back to the east gate. They were piled so densely that it was impossible to walk.
Near the east gate, a steady stream of captives rushed towards the city gate from alleys and alleys, and the battle for the east gate began.
It turned out that Jierhalang had already thought of a countermeasure. He first reduced Huang Degong's frontal force to lure the Ming army away from the east gate. Then he sent dead soldiers to put enough pressure on the Ming army's front, so that the Ming army general would also use the follow-up force. Tune it up.
Then Jierhalang relied on the advantage that they were more familiar with the terrain of Shenyang City than the Ming army, detoured from alleys and alleys, cut off the attacking Ming army's way back to the east gate, and then used their main force to attack the east gate of Shenyang City.
The fighting in Shenyang City started last night, and it is almost noon now, and they are still fighting. However, the two warring parties have changed, from the civil strife of Jianlu to the current battle between Jianlu and the Ming army.
Although the east gate was presided over by the stable He Kegang, a lot of troops were left to guard the east gate. However, Jianlu jumped over the wall in a desperate situation and fought with his last resort. Although they had fought for so long and felt very tired, they still broke out in such a desperate situation. Amazing combat effectiveness.
The Ming army at the city gate gradually began to be unable to withstand the frenzied attacks of the Jianlu, because a problem with the flintlock guns was that if they fired continuously for a long time, the barrels would become hot, and the shooting could only be temporarily interrupted.
This Jianlu was like a mad dog, attacking continuously regardless of casualties, and heated up the Ming army's gun barrels with human lives.
If the chariot camp is there and one shot kills a group of Jianlu, even if Jianlu uses this method of attack, it will ultimately be in vain.
But it happened that Jianlu dug holes on the road, which delayed the advance of the car camp. Even the speed of the field artillery was slowed down by the potholes on the ground, and they were unable to reach Shenyang in time.
Ji'erhalang was hiding not far from the city gate. When he saw the Ming army's gunfire gradually becoming sparse, he knew that his goal was about to be achieved. He immediately mobilized his archers to suppress it, preparing to make a final push to attack the east gate. The city gate was taken down and the road to the outside of the city was opened.
Seeing this situation, He Kegang gritted his teeth and issued an order: "Everyone prepare for close combat."
His plan was to use bayonets to stop Jianlu. As long as he persisted for enough time and waited for friendly forces to come to support, Jianlu would be completely surrendered in Shenyang City.
But in this case, the casualties of the Ming army will inevitably increase. But if you want to prevent Jianlu from leaving the city, this is the only way to do it.
At this time, in Shenyang City, Cao Wenzhao's troops had already bitten the rear of the Jianlu forces that Huang Degong was facing. The strength and firepower of this unit were the most powerful in the Ming army. And they were from the Jianlu forces. They attacked from the rear, so it didn't take long to eliminate the Jianlu at the end of Qiannuzhi, and they reunited with Huang Degong.
Although the strength of the Ming army increased a lot, on the way back to the east gate, countless corpses of Jianlu were piled up, hindering their advancement.
In addition, in order to cover his companions and break out of Shenyang, Jianlu had to risk his life to block the attack. Therefore, even if the strength of the Ming army increased a lot, it would still take a lot of time to return to the east gate.
The local situation at the east gate suddenly became serious for the Ming army. It is unknown how much the Ming army soldiers would lose in close combat. More importantly, even if many Ming army soldiers were sacrificed, it was still unknown whether they could stop Jianlu. .
The focus of the whole city is on the east gate of Shenyang City.
