Chapter 193 The Fall of the Weng City

At the top of Jinhua City, several soldiers hugged a log, shouted trumpets and hit the city stairs that were climbing the city.

With a cheer, the iron hook that was hooked on the head of the city was knocked off. The city ladder was pushed open to the wall. The Qing soldiers above fell from the ladder screaming.

When the long ladder fell, the Qing soldiers, who were densely packed with ants under the city, immediately dispersed in fear, revealing an open space. Those who had no time to run away were smashed to the ground by the ladder.

The defenders on the top of the city raised the stones and smashed them down the city. An arrow shot in the face. The soldiers howled and fell to the top of the city with the stones.

On the city wall, General He Wu killed the Qing army who jumped up with a knife and shouted loudly, "Soldiers, reinforcements are approaching. As long as we persist, we will be saved!"

While he was talking, another Qing army jumped onto the top of the city and slashed at him directly. He quickly blocked and fought with the Qing army.

At Chenlou, Zhu Dadian was sitting upright. Deputy General Wu Bangrui led more than a dozen servants to guard the left and right with shields. Under the city wall, thousands of Qing army archers stood behind the shield chariot, bent their bows and arrows, and shot arrows on the top of the city and inserted them on the raised shield. A sharp arrow shot at Zhu Dadian's feet, but he did not move at all.

Outside the city, Boro was furious in the zero-hour command post supported by four wooden sticks.

At this time, the scouts kept coming to report the news from the outside, and the Qing army, which was suddenly blocked by the Ming army from the three Ming troops, could break through the block at any time, which made Boro a little manic and uneasy.

"Report!" A white-armored soldier ran in quickly and knelt on one knee. "Report to Master Beile, Zhu Chenggong's offensive is fierce, and it is only thirteen miles away from the West City!"

"Let Tulai resist it, there is a mistake in the Western Front, come and see you!" Boro had red eyes and roared and ordered.

The messenger hurriedly withdrew, and he could still see his back. Another long voice came, "Report!"

Another messenger rushed in and said, "Belle, the battle on the southern front is fierce. Meleezhen Boerhui was killed by the thief generals. Gushan Tantai asked for support!"

"What?" Boro shook his body, his hands supported the table, and his heart was bleeding.

Boerhui was a Manchu veteran with great military achievements. He was a Manchu from Zhengbai Banner and was the younger brother of Sabitu. He was the first to be Bayala Zhuangda.

In the third year of Tiancong, he attacked Ming from Huang Taiji, attacked Zunhua, and killed Ming's deputy general. In the fifth year, he was promoted to Bayalajialazhangjing and was also a participant in the Ministry of Revenue. He was Dorgon's confidant general, and he was extremely brave and did not expect to be killed by the Ming army.

This shocked Boro and became more anxious.

"Beller, why don't you go to reinforce me!" The fairway of Jueluolang.

Boluo slapped the table with a map in front of him and gritted his teeth, "No, you take people to attack the city, I will give you an hour, and you must take down Jinhua City!"

Seeing this, Jueluo Langqiu saluted solemnly, "Christ!"

Jueluo Langqiu took the order and left. Boluo looked at the map for a while and suddenly said in surprise: "Is there any news about Zhao Manzi in the west?"

In Boluo's view, Zhao Ming has nearly 40,000 troops, second only to Zhu Yihai's 30,000 troops.

Now that Zhu Yihai and Zheng Chenggong are approaching, Zhao Zamao must be about to kill, and it is impossible for him to have no news.

The Qing general next to him hurriedly said, "Master Beile, I have not received any news about Zhao Tiebang."

Boluo frowned slightly, "Send a provost to the west to check, contact the Quartet, and let him inform the Western Front at any time."

"Zhe!" Qing general beat Qian'er and saluted.

Boro waved his hand, then picked up his helmet and put it on his bare scalp. He hurried out of the tent and went outside, and went to the city to supervise the battle himself.

At the city of Jinhua, the Qing army relied on its superiority to force, and the archers covered the city with overwhelming arrows. The defenders could only hide behind the battlements, squatted on the ground and shot arrows from the battlements to fight back.

With the cover of arrows, the Qing army raised the siege ladder and climbed up the city. The soldiers on the city were experiencing arrow rain to smash stones from the city. The Qing army's bones and tendons were broken and wailed. However, there were too many Qing soldiers and horses, and the city climbing ladders were built one after another. Qing soldiers rushed up the city walls one after another. Nearly 20,000 Qing troops were put on the battlefield, and there were only five or six thousand soldiers and civilians defending the city. The Qing army gradually climbed to the city.

At several key attacks of the Qing army, the fierce Qing army kept jumping onto the top of the city. The defenders fought back. A Ming army's hundred households killed a Qing army with one knife, but was pierced by the Qing army who jumped onto the city. He roared and burst out his last force, holding the Qing army and falling off the city wall together.

At the urn city, Jueluo Langqi led more than a thousand Zhen Manchus to climb up the city. Thousands of Qing army archers on both sides suppressed the city and covered the actions of the Eight Banners soldiers.

The soldiers of the defenders lifted the ladders, smashed stones, and fought fiercely. The corpses piled up under the city, and the Qing army suffered heavy casualties, but one after another, the Qing army jumped onto the top of the city one after another.

General He Wu waved his sword to shoot at the arrows at the top of the city, and killed the Qing army who had climbed the city. Seeing that there were more and more Qing troops on the city wall, the servants gathered together to fight and raise their shields to block the Qing army's sword and spear.

He Wu flew over the sword and killed several people in a row. The city wall was covered with the bodies of the Qing army.

Jueluo Langqiu, who was climbing to the top of the city, was furious when he saw this and swung his sword at He Wu. With a "dang" sound, he was completely chopped back by a knife.

Jueluo Langqiu narrowed his eyes, raised his sword and pointed at He Wu, and shouted angrily: "If you surrender at this time, you will be spared from death!"

The tenacity of the Jinhua defenders made the Qing army admit that the barbarians worshiped the strong, and the Jinhua defenders had already gained recognition from the Qing army.

He Wu heard this and knew that he was a Manchu general. He roared angrily, "A great general, how can he surrender to the enemy?" After speaking, he waved his sword and came directly at Jueluo Langqiu.

Seeing this, the Qing army that had climbed to the top of the city immediately rushed forward to block He Wu's attack. The remaining defenders fought desperately with the Qing army at the top of the city.

In less than a quarter of an hour, there were only three hundred defenders in the city, He Wu and more than ten servants left, and each of them was injured.

Boluo saw the Qing army climbing to the top of the city wall and occupying a section of the city wall. The city was broken, and a hint of excitement finally appeared on his face.

On the city wall, Qing soldiers kept jumping onto the top of the city. He Wu killed several people in succession. Suddenly, a spear stabbed in from the side. He waved his sword to kill the Qing army's spearmen, but several spears stabbed from multiple directions at the same time.

Seven or eight long spears pierced into his abdomen and waist at the same time. The sharp spearhead broke through He Wu's iron armor and penetrated deeply into his body.

He Wu's face changed. He looked at the gun inserted into his body unwillingly, and then looked into the distance. The moment the spear was pulled out, he fell down on his back, and blood kept flowing out of his body, dyeing the city wall scarlet red.

Jueluo Langqiu stepped forward and looked at it. Then he glanced at the top of the city and shouted in a deep voice, "No one left, kill all!"

Boluo saw the Mingqi of Wengcheng being thrown off the city wall, and his face was ecstatic. He drew his sword and roared, "Open the city gate, no one can leave you!"
