Chapter 55 Bloody Battle in Texas (1)

(Thanks to book friends Piaokongyou for his 300 coin reward. Please recommend votes~)

More and more strong men fell in front of the moat, but Juelo Bahana was not touched at all.

The biggest use of these captured men is to fill the moat. As long as the moat is filled, their mission will be completed.

At this moment, some river sections have been filled with sandbags, but Jueluo Bahana is not in a hurry.

He wanted to wait for the Han army in Shitingzhu to launch a first attack.

Gioro Bahana thought so, how could Shi Tingzhu not have his own little abacus?

Whether it is the Manchu Eight Banners or the Han Eight Banners, the number of flag soldiers directly determines the real status of Gushan E.

If the more than 2,000 Han army soldiers inlaid with red flags brought by Shi Tingzhu this time were seriously damaged, then his status among the Eight Banners would also decline accordingly.

The strong are respected, which is a principle that all bannermen must follow, and even the Regent is no exception.

To be very disrespectful, isn’t the reason why the Regent could sit in the Forbidden City for the Emperor to issue orders because he and Duoduo and Azige’s three brothers had the most flag soldiers and the strongest?

Shi Tingzhu was determined to preserve his strength, but unfortunately he commanded the Han army flag, and its importance was incomparable to the Manchu flag with a strong and red roots.

Since the strong men who filled the trenches were almost dead, the Han army flag naturally launched the charge first, so that the losses of the Manchu Banners could be minimized.

Of course, Jueluo Bahana would not wait until the Shi Tingzhu troops completely attacked the city before sending troops to attack the city. As long as the soldiers of the Han army's red flag inlaid with the attention of the defenders in the west of the city, he would order the warriors of the Manchu Zhenglan Banner to launch a fierce attack on the north gate.

The low conch roar sounded, and the Han army's red flag soldiers carrying simple ladders and sandbags rushed across the moat and leaned under the city wall.

In the process, they were shot fiercely by the Ming army on the city wall.

Like locust-like feather arrows shot down one after another, the Han army's red flags raised their shields to block them.

Most of the arrows slid down to the ground after blocking the force, but some of the arrows still shot into the arms and thighs of the flag soldiers.

The armor of the Han army flag is not as good as that of the Manchu army flag, but it must be much better than the strong men without armor.

These stray arrows did not cause fatal injuries to the Qing soldiers, and some brave flag soldiers even pulled out the arrows directly.

He Rong, the deputy general on the top of Xicheng City, shouted: "Why are you still standing there? Get ready to roll the wood, stones and gold juice? Move the iron pot to the marble, and the Tartars climbed up and poured it on me!"

As the commander of the former Huai'an Governor Biao Battalion, He Rong still has a certain ability to command troops. However, he had never organized a city guard battle before, even if he was only responsible for one wall, so he was a little panicked at this moment.

At the urging of the soldiers of the governor Biao camp, the village soldiers moved the rolling wood and stones to the edge of the mercedes, and just waited for the command of the chief general to smash them down.

The armament warehouse in Dezhou City is still very full, so every village soldier was assigned a set of cotton armor, a waist knife, a long spear, and a pair of double-ins.

These weapons and equipment may not be conspicuous among the border troops, but for Huaian Township soldiers who use wooden spears, they are definitely top-notch.

At this moment, they were both excited and nervous, and they poked their heads out of the trunk from time to time, wanting to see with their own eyes what the ferocious Tartars looked like in General Qin's mouth.

The Han army's red flag soldiers under the city wall had already set up more than a dozen simple ladders on the wall of Xicheng. At the same time, more than a dozen strong Qing soldiers rushed towards the city gate with a newly cut down siege.

"Why are you still standing there? Throw the wooden rocks!"

Seeing that these rural soldiers were still in a daze, He Rong felt angry and came to him.

If the Qing soldiers attacked the city, it would be extremely difficult. Although there were many people in the village, they were all new recruits. As long as the Qing soldiers killed dozens of people at the city, they would cause great panic. At that time, even if he led the Governor Biao Camp veterans to suppress the situation, they would probably not be able to control the situation.

Therefore, what He Rong had to do was to prevent a Tartar from climbing to the top of the city!

Although the village soldiers lack combat experience, they have the advantage of obeying command.

They raised the rolling wood and stones piled up beside the mercerated gangways and smashed them hard at the Qing soldiers who were climbing up along the ladder.

puff!

A Han army's red flag soldier was climbing, and a grinder-sized stone fell from the sky and hit his chest.

The flag soldier could clearly hear the sound of his ribs breaking. A mouthful of blood spurted out of Lao Gao, and then his body softened and fell down the ladder.

Compared with rocks, rolling wood is obviously easier to use.

A rolling wood hit the city, sweeping the Qing soldiers on three rows of ladders together. These Qing soldiers fell down like scattered mung beans.

"Haha, smash the damn, smash these Tartars to death."

The role of the rolling wood and stone was obvious. The first fierce offensive of the Han army inlaid with red flags was suppressed. But He Rong did not feel excited at all. He knew that the Qing army would never be so fragile, and would have a more fierce offensive waiting for them.

Sure enough, after a little rest, the Qing army launched another round of offensive.

At this time, the wooden rolling stones prepared at the city wall had almost been consumed.

On the one hand, He Rong ordered the soldiers from the town to quickly move the city, and on the other hand, he ordered the soldiers under his command to pour the golden juice into the pot.

The so-called gold juice does not refer to the melted gold, but the feces.

After boiling the manure, pour it down from the top of the city. Anyone who is poured will have skin and flesh and blood will burst all over.

Because there are many bacteria in the feces, even if the enemy soldiers who are poured are not killed immediately, they will definitely be infected and die. This is where the golden juice is more powerful than boiling oil.

At this moment, the Ming army poured down a pot of boiling golden juice, which undoubtedly caused a great blow to the Qing soldiers who attacked the city by the Yijiao.

Many Qing soldiers were so hot that they screamed, and their yellow and white objects were covered in their faces, and they were in a very embarrassing state.

However, the amount of gold juice was limited, so Ming Jun had to change to boiling oil after pouring it.

A pot of boiling boiling oil was poured down, and a stinging sound was heard in an instant, and then the smell of burnt human flesh came.

A large area of ​​Qing soldiers who were about to climb to the top of the city were poured down and fell into a meat paste.

Shi Tingzhu, who was supervising the battle on a small mound not far away, looked ashen.

The Qing Dynasty was never good at siege wars, and when it was in Liaodong, it was mostly siege.

Compared to siege by force, using a room is a better choice.

As long as they set up an in-house response in advance and let them spread rumors and create panic when the Qing army sieges the city, they can greatly shake the morale of the army defending the city. If they can open a city gate in the chaos, the city will be destroyed without attacking.

This move has been tried and done, so Shi Tingzhu naturally could not have known it. But this time they went to Shandong to go to Shandong and had no time to put in the inner city. Moreover, seeing the gates of Dezhou City were closed, the defenders in the city seemed to have prepared very early.

This battle is a bit difficult to fight.
