(First update, please vote for recommendation, Lao Kun needs everyone’s support!)

On June 21, the Qing army of Jueluo Bahana's tribe and Shi Tingzhu tribe arrived in Dezhou.

On the 22nd, Jueluo Bahana ordered people to write a book of surrender and tied it to an arrow and shot it into the city, but it was fruitless.

On the 23rd, the Qing army began to attack the city.

Dezhou City has a circumference of 5,100 meters, a city height of 12 meters, and a wall thickness of 9 meters. The moat is 15 meters wide and 6 meters deep, and there are five city gates. Among them, the east gate is Changle Gate, the south gate is Chaoyang Gate, the west gate is Juxiu Gate, the north gate is Gongji Gate, and the northwest is Guangchuan Gate, also known as Xiaoxi Gate.

Jueluo Bahana sent people to circle the city for a careful investigation, and after discussion with Shi Tingzhu, he finally decided to attack from the north gate and the west gate. As for the east gate and the south gate, he only made a feint attack.

This is not because Jurobahana does not want to surround him, but because the number of armored soldiers they brought this time is limited. Texas is also a big city. If the Qing army's forces are too divided, they will not have the advantage on each side.

Because the troops were too anxious this time, the Qing army did not have time to build too many siege equipment, and even the city-hit hammers were made of cutting down trees.

However, Jueluo Bahana is full of confidence in conquering Texas.

In his opinion, the city of Dezhou must be very empty at this time, at most, it was garrisoned by some yamen runners and township soldiers.

As long as the Manchu Warriors launch a charge, they can easily capture the city.

When the animal woman Jueluo Bahana thought of the gold, silver and treasures in Texas City, she swallowed unconsciously.

Haha, the Regent treated him well and actually handed him such a beautiful man.

However, Shi Tingzhu, who was standing beside him, looked a little serious.

In his opinion, the atmosphere on the eve of the war was a bit strange.

Quiet, too quiet. Why is Texas like a dead city? Has everyone in the city escaped?

No matter what, the city still needs to be attacked.

As the conch sounded, the flag soldiers began to drive away the captured men and ordered them to carry bags of sandbags to rush towards the moat.

The moat in Texas City is too wide, and it is summer again. If you want to cross the river, you must fill it with sandbags.

Of course, the flag soldiers would not do this work. The process of filling the river was too dangerous, so naturally the captured men had to be held in front.

When they set out from the capital, there were 20,000 Han tyrants captured by the Qing army. Half of these people died on the road. The Qing army arrested another 5,000 people near Dezhou. Therefore, there were about 15,000 strong men who could be driven to fill the river by them.

Jueluo Bahana performed a rough task assignment with Shi Tingzhu.

Jueluo Bahana led 2,000 Manchu Zhenglan Banner armored soldiers to attack the north gate and sent 500 armored soldiers to attack the east gate. Shi Tingzhu led 2,000 Han troops to attack the west gate and sent 500 armored soldiers to attack the south gate at the same time.

As for the strong men who act as cannon fodder, they are probably distributed according to this proportion.

Chen Shuncai was lucky and was assigned to the queue to attack Ximen.

Ximen is the main attacking direction, which means he can enter the city to rob.

According to Chen Shuncai's past experience, after breaking the city, he must rush forward. The faster he rushes, the more people will grab. If he is assigned to the side of the feint attack, he will have to wait until other armored soldiers open the gate from the city before entering the city, and he can only share some leftovers.

Master Shi said that Dezhou City is now extremely empty, and everyone can take down the city with just one round of charge and control the entire Dezhou City.

In this case, Chen Shun did not want to fall behind and let his companions snatch all the gold, silver and treasures.

"Hurry, don't be lazy, throw the sandbag into the moat! Go and move it immediately after throwing it away, move it quickly!"

He had no good expression on these arrested men Chen Shuncai.

Maybe he had compassion for these Han people during the march, but now he is sieging the city, he will never feel any sympathy again.

War will surely die. As long as the death is not yours, what should you care about?

Whoosh!

A strong Han man moved a little slower, and Chen Shun threw a whip after he threw his head.

A blood-red whip mark suddenly appeared on the back of the stern, and he staggered and almost fell.

"No matter how lazy you are, be careful that I will chop you up with one knife!"

Chen Shuncai spat out a mouthful of phlegm and threatened.

The sooner the moat is filled, the sooner they can attack the city, otherwise thousands of flag soldiers would have to stare at each other on the moat.

"Quick, faster!"

Chen Shuncai kept waving his whip, feeling an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

Originally, when he was a coat slave, he was whipped a lot. If he got too many whips, he knew when his master would get angry.

Gradually, Chen Shun learned to think about his master and tried his best to please them.

As a result, Chen Shuncai was getting fewer and fewer whips. Although he would occasionally get a few whips, it was also a reminder of his duty as a slave, right?

Isn’t it because of his diligence and loyalty as a slave that his master carried the flag and became a Han army bannerman?

Look at the foolish people in front of you, they are all cheating and unwilling to work honestly. Aren’t you looking for a blow?

The strong men driven by the whip rushed towards the moat with sandbags, silently chanting the blessing of the Buddha and the protection of the Buddha.

However, the Buddha Bodhisattva they were seeking did not appear. After they entered the range of bows and arrows, a rain of arrows was shot on the top of the city.

Although the strong men tried their best to protect their cheeks with sandbags, arrows still shot into their vital bodies.

These strong men don't even have a complete piece of clothing, let alone armor, so ordinary eagle arrows can cause great damage to them.

Many strong men were shot before they rushed to the moat and fell down like mud. Some strong men rushed to the river by luck, threw the sandbag in their hands into the river and ran back desperately.

However, most of them were nailed to death by chasing arrows before they even took a few steps.

Under the threat of the flag soldiers, the strong men who escaped had to carry another bag of sand and repeat the previous task.

Chen Shuncai was slightly stunned when he saw this. The defenders on the top of the city seemed to have sufficient arrows and had no intention of shooting at all.

But this is normal. After all, Dezhou is a big city and the northwest gate of Shandong. The armament warehouse in the city must be very fulfilling.

But so what?

They only rely on the strong city to resist for a while. When the strong men fill the moat, the flag soldiers can easily attack the city and take down Texas.

But the rain of arrows shot from the city wall did not stop. The proportion of deaths and injuries of the strong men was too high, and many of them were afraid of moving forward, and some even turned around and ran back.

Chen Shuncai was shocked when he saw this.

It would be amazing if these strong men were allowed to disperse the armored soldiers.

He took a deep breath and pulled out his waist knife and scolded: "Don't run away, don't run away. Those who retreated will die!"

Most of the other Han army's red flag-inlaid armored soldiers pulled out their swords like Chen Shuncai. If these strong men did not stop, they would slay their swords and slaughter them.
