Chapter 516 Huang Taiji is dizzy
Under the bombardment of the Hu Ben Army's cannons, the Tartars in Zhongzuo City were in danger.
For the Tartars, this feeling was really uncomfortable. Being suppressed and beaten by the enemy was unprecedented. In the past decade, the Jin army has been invincible and has not tried the feeling of being passively beaten for a long time. In the past, the Jin army was suppressing the Ming army to fight and ravage the other party to the fullest. Unexpectedly, the feng shui took turns, and now it is their turn to suffer.
There was a white-armored Tartar soldier who couldn't stand such a blow and felt very frustrated and wanted to go upstairs to the city wall to get some breath. At the same time, he wanted to cheer up the morale of his companions, so he stood up bravely and stood above the city wall. He wanted to pee under the city wall to show his contempt for the Hu Ben Navy: if you have the guts, come up and fight with me, and just lie on the sea and fire the fire, what's the point?
However, just as he took off his pants, an iron chain flew over and crossed his waist. After the chain flew over, the Tartars were still Tartars, and the white-armored soldiers were still Tartars, as if nothing had happened. Even the white-armored soldiers' hands had inertial movements. However, after a moment, his upper body suddenly tilted slowly, slowly tilted backward, and then suddenly fell backward.
"puff!"
The blood arrows soaring into the sky flew up and spread into large pieces of blood, dyeing the surrounding city walls red. Then, the upper body of the Tartar fell off the top of the city and fell directly into meat sauce. However, his lower body still stood on the city wall. Strangely, from then on, the artillery shells of the Tiger Ben Army Navy, even the marbles of the grape bullets, did not continue to hit his lower body.
"All with me!"
Another white-armored soldier of the Tartars was furious when he witnessed the death of his companions. He immediately stood up and shouted that his subordinates would go out to fight the Hu Ben Army to the death. The Tartars' military orders were very strict. Driven by this white-armored soldier, more than a dozen other Tartars had to take up weapons and follow the white-armored soldier to try to go up the city wall.
"Crazy!"
Suddenly, a burst of grape bullets poured over.
The white-armored soldier of the Tartar suddenly screamed and rolled down from the city. The Tartars beside him were also hit by marbles and fell directly from the city. Before the other Tartars could be rescued, dense marbles fell down, sweeping away all the Tartars on the city. In total, there were one white-armored soldier, two red-armored soldiers, and fifteen ordinary Tartars, all fell down from the city, without knowing whether they were alive or not.
Fortunately, the marbles of the grape bullets were somewhat inertia and could not directly attack the back of the city wall. Otherwise, if the continuous marbles fell, all the injured Tartars would die. Even so, occasionally the marbles were bounced back, and many Tartars were injured. Fortunately, the marbles that were bounced back did not have much force, and even if they were hit, they would not be fatal.
When the other Tartars witnessed the tragic situation of these two white-armored soldiers, they couldn't help but be silent and never dared to go up and show off. Do you want to die if you show off in front of cannons? Nurhaci, who established the Great Jin Kingdom, died under cannons, let alone other people?
As a result, the entire Zhongzuo City suddenly became very quiet, as if there were no Tartars inside. Perhaps, none of the Tartars realized that their mentality had undergone fundamental changes at this time. In the past, it was impossible for them to endure the feeling of being beaten like this when they were attacked by the Ming army. They would definitely fight back at all costs.
But now, under the attack of the Hu Ben Army, they have become accustomed to the smell of being beaten. As long as the artillery bombardment of the Hu Ben Army has not stopped, they will never go out. In the face of the Hu Ben Army's bullets, their only thought is to save their lives first. Perhaps, the three words Hu Ben Army have given them heavy pressure and caused huge changes in their mentality.
"Blow you up!"
"See how long you can endure it!"
On the Cangshan boat where Guijianxiao was laughing, as the captain, he smiled sinisterly on his face.
Such a battle is really comfortable and completely one-sided. Unfortunately, there are no bystanders. If an observer sees this scene and sees the Tartars being suppressed by the Hu Ben Army, he has no chance to fight back. I don’t know how relieved he will be! When was the Ming Dynasty able to suppress the Tartars? He has always been suppressed by the Tartars! Apart from the Hu Ben Army, who can suppress the Tartars? It feels good to suppress the Tartars!
"Boom!"
After three hours of bombardment, the city wall near the south gate of Zhongzuo City finally collapsed. The Tartars hiding behind the wall were also crushed to death by the collapsed bricks and stones, and more were injured. Other Tartars hurriedly fled in various places, looking for hidden objects.
"Close shooting!"
"Grape bomb!"
"emission!"
Li Jicheng shouted without hesitation.
The city walls were smashed, and the Tatars in the whole city had no place to hide, and grape bombs could cover them. As long as the Tartars were hit by the falling marbles, the military power of the Great Jin Kingdom would be weakened by another point. Accumulating a small amount into a large amount, the Great Jin Kingdom would sooner or later collapse.
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff!
Sure enough, a series of grape bombs fell down, constantly knocking over the panicked Tartars onto the streets.
The best way to avoid these dense marbles is of course to escape from the range of the cannon and avoid them far away. As long as you leave the range of the dragon cannon, the marbles cannot harm them. However, the Tartars cannot retreat. Because they must guard Zhongzuo City. The leader of the Tartars believed that after the fierce shelling, the Tiger Ben Army would definitely seize Zhongzuo City. At this time, the Tartars must never retreat. They must persist until the reinforcements from Jinzhou City arrive.
"Clog!"
"Clog!"
"Clog!"
The leader of the Tartars kept shouting and asked his subordinates to return to the combat post. The military law of the Tartars was still very strict. Under the shouting of the leader, the other Tartars had to continue to return to the gap. They bent their bows and arrows, fully armed, and were ready to counterattack the landing of the Tiger Ben Army at any time. As a result, a large number of grape bullets of the Tiger Ben Army fell, causing a large number of casualties to the Tartars.
Zhang Zhun raised the thousand-mile mirror, carefully observed the Tartars near the gap, and then smiled coldly. These Tartars were indeed commendable. However, they still lacked some flexibility. They actually wanted to keep the gap under the bombardment of grape bombs? Isn’t this a waste of death? Since the Tartars voluntarily died, the Tiger Army of course followed the flow and fully satisfied their wishes.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
All the cannons of the Hu Ben Army warship were desperately shooting grape bombs near the gap in the city wall. In order to enhance the power of the marbles, Gui Jianxiao and the captain even moved the Cangshan boat to the sea less than 100 meters away from Zhongzuo City. The grape bombs shot in this way had huge kinetic energy and were quite powerful, and even the white-armored soldiers of the Tartars could not defend.
Soon, the Tartars that appeared in the Qianli Mile Mile were completely covered by marbles. A batch of Tartars came up, a batch of them were covered, and a batch of them came up, and a batch of them were covered. They were like dolls without feelings, blindly trying to get up to block the gap, but never thought that their behavior was not only futile, but even ridiculous to outsiders.
Of course, Zhang Zhun did not mean to laugh at them. The Tartars were indeed a bit stupid and a little stubborn, but no one could deny that they were indeed not lacking in courage. If the officers and soldiers of the Ming army had such courage to die, the Tartars would not have the chance to rise. Sometimes, the Han people were too smart and too concerned about gains and losses, and they lacked a lot of blood in the midst of gains and losses.
"Sir, do you still have to continue firing?" Li Jicheng came up to ask for instructions.
"Stop shooting, it's almost done." Zhang Zhun said inadvertently.
Li Jicheng hangs out flags and the sound of cannons gradually stopped.
At this time, Zhongzuo City could no longer see the standing Tartars. However, Zhang Zhun didn't know how many casualties the Tartars had. Since the city wall blocked most of the sight, he could not judge the specific casualties of the Tartars. However, judging from the rapid upward surging of the Tartars just now, the Tartars' losses should not be less.
"Go to Weihaiwei!"
Zhang Zhun put down Qianlijing and said slowly.
"clear!"
Li Jicheng issued an order, and the fleet immediately turned around and headed southeastward to Weihaiwei Port.
At this point, all Zhang Zhun's military operations on the coast of Liaodong were over. After he raided here unscrupulously, he patted his butt and went to Weihaiwei to continue his inspection. What was left for the Tartars was a mess with extremely headaches.
Zhang Zhun didn't care about what the Tartars would react, nor was he going to stay here to observe the Tartars' reaction. Anyway, the more intense the Tartars' reaction was, the more they liked the Tiger Army. It would be even better if the Tartars suddenly lost their minds, made a wrong decision, and launched a strong attack in the direction of Shanhaiguan. If they bypass the Great Wall, the Tiger Army would all continue.
In fact, the Tartars who received the information were indeed furious.
After Dorgon and Duoduo were trapped, the person responsible for the defense of Jinzhou Wei, Fuzhou Wei and other places was the Seven Bell Abatai of the Tartars. Abatai's mother was from a humble background and had no status in Nurhaci's harem. After Abatai was born, he naturally did not receive much care from Nurhaci. Compared with Ajige, Dorgon and Duoduo, Abatai was not at the same level at all. However, Abatai worked very hard and never felt inferior. He began to go to the battlefield at the age of fourteen to accumulate military achievements for himself. Until now, his military achievements have been quite good.
In the power struggle within the Great Jin Dynasty, both Huang Taiji and Dorgon were more acceptable to Abatai. Abatai was a pure general, not interested in politics, nor did he participate in the battle between Huang Taiji and Dorgon. When he besieged Daling River, Abatai was once Huang Taiji's number one general. When the Tatars invaded the second time, Abatai cooperated with Ajige to conquer Lingqiu.
"What did you say?"
"Have the Hu Ben Army arrived ashore?"
When Abatai received a report from his subordinates, he felt that the situation was serious and hurriedly sent someone to report Huang Taiji. At the same time, he ordered all the Tartars under his command, as well as the rebels and servants, to enter a state of combat. The Hu Ben Army actually landed in Liaodong, which was a great event. The Great Jin Kingdom finally got rid of Mao Wenlong with Yuan Chonghuan's hand. There must be no other Mao Wenlong, let alone a person who was more powerful than Mao Wenlong.
"What?"
"The Hu Ben Army landed in Jinzhou Guard?"
Huang Taiji was also surprised when he received Abatai's report.
This shock was extraordinary, which meant that the entire Jin Kingdom was really surprised. The advancement speed of the Hu Ben Army was too fast, right? Before Dengzhou City was finally captured, she was actually thinking about counterattacking Liaodong? Zhang Zhun, do you really think that Liaodong is Shandong? Can you let your wildness here?
After thinking for a while, Huang Taiji quickly ordered the main force of Zhenglan Banner and the Inlaid Yellow Banner to immediately advance towards the Jinzhou Guard and reinforce Abatai. He himself commanded the Zhenghuang Banner and took charge of command in Shenyang. At the same time, Huang Taiji also ordered people to immediately remind the Zhenghong Banner and Inlaid Red Banner on the Jinzhou Front to pay attention to the movements and movements of the Jinzhou Front and prevent the Ming army from cooperating with the Tiger Army to counterattack Liaodong.
As a result, the entire Liaodong was shocked again. When the Han people in Liaodong saw a large number of Tartar cavalry heading south, as if something big happened, the undercurrent began to surging quietly. At the beginning, they thought the Tartar cavalry were going to rescue Dengzhou City, but later they found out that it was the Hu Ben Army who came ashore. This was amazing news.
At the same time, news came out that the landing Hu Ben Army killed a large number of Tartars, and more were injured. The Tartars used flatbed trucks to pull the wounded from the southern coast to Shenyang. After several days of pulling them, they had not finished. Many injured Tartars died on the way to Shenyang, or just arrived in Shenyang.
It was a time of rumors again, and everything was said. The most shocking one was that the Ming army was going to counterattack Liaodong. Many Han people who were already numb in their minds knew this news. Their numb nerves seemed to be deeply stimulated and suddenly became active again.
All kinds of rumors made the Tartars very nervous and had to deal with them carefully. Whether it was Shenyang, Liaoyang, or Jinzhou frontline, the Tartars all increased their vigilance. Of course, the Han people were the targets of their focus on surveillance, and as long as there was a slight disturbance, they would be severely suppressed.
This tense atmosphere was particularly obvious in Deliying City in southeast Liaodong. After Abatai was ordered to guard the Fuzhou Guards and Jinzhou Guards, he did not station in the two acropolis, but in Deliying City. Deliying City was built at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty destroyed it for a time. However, Abatai liked the name, so he sent someone to repair it and regarded it as his own tent.
"Is the numbers you reported true?"
In the golden tent in Deliying City, Abatai was shocked after listening to the report from his confidant. This number was too far from his estimated number, and he could not believe it.
"Belle is indeed true. The slave has repeatedly counted and removed any suspicious components. In the death number, every number has a corpse. If there is no corpse, it has not been counted. At present, only a very small number knows this number."
He whispered under his acne.
"Be careful to keep it confidential and don't let anyone else know the accurate number. If someone asks, it will be said that two or three hundred people were injured, and there is no big deal. The casualties of the Hu Ben Army are several times that of ours. In addition, we will send effective personnel to report the accurate number to Dahan immediately."
Abatai frowned and said cautiously.
"clear!"
His accomplice agreed and turned around.
After leaving his heart and acquaintance, Abatai became more and more anxious, and he kept paced back and forth in the golden tent, and pinched his fists several times during this period. The casualties reported by his subordinates made Abatai very surprised and angry. Such casualties were simply a bolt from the blue and hit the forehead of the Great Jin Kingdom. Even if he was not smashed to death, he would be knocked unconscious.
More than 120 people died in Changsheng Island, more than 330 people died in Jinzhou Guard, and more than 380 people died in Zhongzuo City. The total number is close to one thousand people. This is the number of deaths in battle, and more people were injured, and there will definitely be no less than one thousand people. In addition, there is a very special number, which is the number of missing people. The number of missing people actually exceeded 200. In other words, the Tiger Ben Army attacked the coast of Liaodong this time, causing more than 200 casualties to the Tartars.
Such shocking numbers made Abatai restless, and at the same time felt deeply fear and deep aggrievance. If such news came out, the entire Jin Dynasty would probably be in a panic. The Jin Dynasty had just lost more than 4,000 people in Huang County, and more than 2,000 people were besieged in Dengzhou City, and now it has lost two thousand people. The total losses are nearly 10,000 people.
The loss of ten thousand people! No matter from any perspective, it is a fatal blow to the Great Jin Kingdom. These losses are not the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, the elderly, young, women and children, but all the warriors who can fight well! The entire Great Jin Kingdom, the warriors who can fight well, have not many ten thousand people in total. Now, in just less than two months, 10,000 people have been lost. How can you accept it if you call Huang Taiji?
"What?"
"Two thousand casualties?"
Sure enough, Huang Taiji felt a little dizzy when he received the casualties sent by Abatai. Abatai's guess was correct, Huang Taiji was indeed shocked by the casualties. Then, Huang Taiji felt deep anger again, as if there was endless fighting intention burning.
