What made both Qing generals Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming change their minds was that the Ming army did not choose to divide their troops to cross the river in multiple places, but concentrated on a shoal four or five miles north of the entrance to the Beiyang River and concentrated their firepower to land on the beach!
Although it was overcrowded, it managed to dodge the Qing army's long snake formation. The defense line stretched for nearly ten miles, but the sharp knife only pierced the heart a little. The rest of the defense line was blocked, but the heart could not be blocked. Almost in the blink of an eye, it was blocked.
The Ming army broke through the defense line and rushed over.
This was a strategic mistake, but it did not cause the two battlefield veterans to panic. After all, they could mobilize the two wings of troops as quickly as possible to destroy the encircling Ming army.
What really made the two of them change their colors was the Ming army's fighting style!
As expected, the Ming army used artillery to clear the way. Kong Youde also made adjustments early. Instead of placing his troops on the shore, he retreated two miles away from the Ming army's fire coverage and mobilized thousands of archers. Once the Ming army came ashore, they would
Directly suppressed by arrow rain!
However, what was unexpected was that the Ming army's fighting style was really tricky. They did use artillery to clear the way. However, after seeing that the Qing army fired a few artillery pieces out of range, the Shenji Battalion immediately crossed the river with the vanguard troops and immediately landed.
Set up artillery fire to support the vanguard heavy armor!
As soon as the Ming army landed, they were greeted by a violent storm, a thorny and deadly rain.
"The Tartars are so treacherous." Tu Yuan led the Black Tiger Battalion to land first, and they were hit by crackling arrows. Fortunately, they were covered in armor and the distance was slightly away, so it had no damage to them. As for the following cavalry,
It is fatal.
"Brothers from the Shenji Camp, are you soft?" Tu Yuan turned over and shouted while leading his troops towards the Qing army's position. Almost at the same time, there was a loud sound of artillery beside him, and the Shenji Camp started spitting fire again just after landing.
The artillery shells and bullets roared away against the Qing army's arrows, immediately tearing a large hole in the Qing army's fire network.
As soon as the two battalions of heavy armor soldiers of the Ming Army landed on the beach, under the cover of artillery fire from the Shenji Battalion, they took the lead and killed the Qing Army camp. Behind them, tens of thousands of Ming Army soldiers rushed to cross the river... At the same time, the Qing Army from the north and south wings also continued to move here.
Encirclement!
"Kill all these Ming dogs!" Seeing the Ming army attack them with artillery, bows and arrows as soon as they landed, Kong Youde yelled cruelly. He had long forgotten that he was also a Ming man!
After the Qing army, which had endured the Ming army for a long time, received the order, it roared towards the landing Ming army from three sides and killed it...
Tens of thousands of troops fought against each other on the banks of the Beiyang River, and the brutality was no less brutal than in Qingzhou City ten miles away!
At this time, Qingzhou City was already boiling!
The fierce flames of war from all sides made Qingzhou City on the fire rack boiling and angry!
Unable to withstand the psychological pressure of the Qing army, General Jia Waixiong, the chief defender of the Ming army, took the lead in ordering an artillery bombardment of the Qing army's positions outside the city. However, this also ignited the anger of the Qing army who had been sharpening their swords, so he issued an order to attack Qingzhou from all sides.
city!
All of a sudden, the Qing army fired tens of thousands of arrows at the garrison at the top of the city. At the same time, they started bombarding the top of the city with several artillery pieces that they had picked up along the way. Dozens of trebuchets kept pelting stones at the city...
Under the cover of these firepower, the Qing army's troops on the city drove away cannon fodder and carried siege equipment and swarmed towards the city wall, of course facing the rocks and sharp arrows...
Flesh and blood were smashed by rocks, and broken limbs could be seen everywhere. The screams and wails were like the cries of ghosts in hell... Cannon fodder is destined to be just cannon fodder. Their lives are used to fill holes. If you take a step back, you will die. If you step forward, you will die.
...Maybe if you help the Qing army capture the city, you will be lucky enough to survive.
So these cannon fodders also went crazy, pushing the siege vehicles and hitting the city gate crazily. Although they didn't know that the city gate had been sealed from the inside... Of course, they were soon smashed into flesh by the rocks and sharp arrows on the city.
Mud or shoot into a hedgehog...
However, the crazy cannon fodder and the crazy Qing army also became ruthless. They wanted to board the city, destroy the city, kill all the people in Qingzhou City, and steal all the wealth in Qingzhou...
For this belief, they went crazy and rushed to Qingzhou City.
Less than half a day after the war started, the Qing army finally placed hundreds of city climbing ladders on the walls of the West City and the North City with countless cannon fodder sacrifices. As long as they climbed up in one go, Qingzhou City would be finished!
The soldiers guarding the city also knew how serious the consequences would be once the Qing troops came up. If they could not stop them despite being condescending and allowed these murderous gods to come onto the city, how could those country warriors who had never fought in actual combat be their opponents?
It was a unilateral massacre!
"We can't let them go up to the city and pour gold..." Lao Jiu, who was guarding the west gate, shouted hoarsely. He ran along the city wall with a shield in hand and yelled: "We can't let these idiots climb up..."
Golden juice is boiled feces and urine. In addition to scalding the enemy, once the wound is touched, it will definitely become infected and inflamed. Given the current medical conditions, you should wait for death!
"Brother Ninth, we can't stop it anymore!" A soldier from the Black Tiger Battalion yelled wildly. The Qing army below had too much firepower. Rockets, rocks and even shells rained down on the top of the city. The Xiangyong suffered heavy casualties.
It was difficult to get close to the battlements and could not effectively suppress the Qing troops who were blocking the base of the city wall from climbing up the ladder!
"What the hell are you talking about? How dare you disturb my military morale!" Lao Jiu was furious and kicked him over. He picked up a huge boulder and threw it towards the city. Several sharp arrows shot from his ears.
It flew by and was shot in the shoulder and head. Fortunately, it was protected by armor.
The Qing army had already begun to ascend the city along the siege ladders. Hundreds of siege ladders were densely crawled with Qing troops, which looked particularly scary. The fastest ones even put hooks on the battlements and climbed up to the city in one step.
Far away.
"Pour fuel on the rocket..."
Lao Jiu continued to roar, and poured the boiling oil directly. The Qing troops attacking the city below immediately let out bursts of wailing, and rolled down the siege ladder. Then several rockets from above were shot down, igniting the boiling oil.
The siege ladder was burned, and those Qing troops...
The city wall and the sea of fire caused the Qing army to suffer heavy losses. The general behind the formation was furious when he saw it. He kept increasing the firepower from the rear to suppress the troops and allowed the troops to continue to rush forward. They were just short of a final kick.
!Once someone boarded the city, they could quickly control the situation with the combat power of the Qing army. At that time...
The battle in Xicheng was extremely brutal, with both the offensive and defensive sides suffering heavy casualties. The other main attack point in Beicheng could be said to be even more tragic, because the Qing army deployed three artillery pieces here, which destroyed half of the north gate tower! General Jia
Wai Xiong's face was covered in blood, and his helmet had been thrown away. At this time, he didn't even bother to bandage his wounds. He held a knife in his hand and yelled at Xiang Yong to fight the enemy. He cursed in his heart that he had never felt so aggrieved before.
battle!
For him, he would rather face-to-face with the Qing army, even if he was poked in a few holes, than the pleasure of throwing stones that he could only see but not touch. He just felt aggrieved!
In addition to being frustrated, there is even more pressure!
This time the Qing army went all out and was far more ferocious than the last time, with more people and stronger attack power. Even though they were fully prepared, the Qing army still put the siege ladder against the city wall in a short period of time and began to climb the city.
!
This is great strength!
But for him, the city defender, it is an unparalleled pressure!
Not knowing how much longer he could hold on, Jia Waixiong raised his head and looked northwest. Fighting had also started on the Beiyang River side. Under the dark night, firelight was flashing within a radius of several miles, but he didn't know who was better!
Come here quickly, come here quickly! I'm afraid it's too late... Jia Waixiong kept thinking in his heart, and turned his eyes to the west mountain. The night there was quiet and without any fluctuations. Could it be that the day before yesterday was just a coincidence, and it was the work of horse thieves in the mountains.
Why is he not the little governor?
"Boss Jia, the Tatars have ascended the city..." The roars of the brothers from the Black Panther Battalion not far away brought Jia Waixiong back to reality. The Qing army ascended the city under the cover of strong firepower. There were actually people who had climbed to the top, but they had just reached the top.
As he climbed up the wall, he was chopped down by a soldier from the Black Tiger Camp. Unfortunately, the soldier was shot through the heart by an arrow from below and fell off the wall...
The fighting was so fierce that all the means that could be used to start the fight were used for just a stick of incense. The cannon shells on the city had been used up. The gold juice and boiling oil were gone. All that was left were bows and arrows and stones and wood...
Jia Waixiong knew that if this continued for at least half an hour, there would be a hand-to-hand fight...
But if it comes to hand-to-hand combat...
"Ten thousand enemies!" Jia Waixiong clenched his fist and shouted!
