"Boom boom boom..."

Outside Niuzhuang City, white sails were covered with the river. A heavy cannon was aimed at Niuzhuang City, a small town with a circumference of 2 miles and 93 steps.

Akdun looked out of the city with a confused look. There were tens of thousands of troops in the water and land? Why did he descend to Niuzhuang without any warning?

Judging from the Ming army's posture, you can tell at first sight that it was coming from the sea. Is it the Southern Navy that the Ming Dynasty emperor dropped from the Ming Dynasty as mentioned in the Dibao?

The news about the Qing Dynasty was still very well-versed, and notice had been issued, but the guards like Niuzhuang and Yaozhou didn't care at all. The so-called navy was the Jiangdong Army that had been swept many years ago. The latter's naval army and the navy in front of them were completely different, not to mention that they did not believe that there were Ming army who were not afraid of death and dared to go deeper into this!

Of course, Ruo Niuzhuang defenders were sound, and he really didn't care about the Ming army outside the city. Although the Ming army had tens of thousands of naval and land troops, he had 300,88 banner warriors, hundreds of Han troops in his hands, and thousands of coats, why fear the Ming army?

When the Eight Banners Warriors deal with Minggou, each person can fight a hundred!

At the beginning of the Songjin Battle, the flag soldiers in Niuzhuang were transferred away, and even the many Baoyi had been transferred away. Even if there were some reversals before the New Year, they were all injured and the shortage was still very large. Now his subordinates are full of plans, and together with Baoyi Aha who came back from the front line to farm, there are only 500 people!

Akdun hurriedly sent someone to report to Haizhou.

There are more soldiers and horses in Jinzhou, but the distance is also farther, right?

"Report—"

A fast horse ran straight to Zheng Zhilong's banner, "Reported to the Grand Commander, Yileshen, the garrison of Jianlu Haizhou, has arrived at Niuzhuang."

Yileshen was a native of the Yellow Banner, with the old surname of Femo. In his early years, he led six households to join Nurhaci, and all the tribesmen were killed by the Ula tribe. In the 36th year of Wanli, Nurhaci specially appointed the imperial position for his reign as the second-class general for his achievements in fighting. During the Tiancong period, he was ordered to lead troops to station in Haizhou (now Haicheng, Liaoning), and command the military in Haizhou, Yaozhou (now Yingkou County, Liaoning), and Niuzhuang areas, and has been in charge of more than ten years.

The news of Yaozhou being broken had already reached his ears earlier, and it was really a blow to the head. After waking up, he became angry and wished he could pierce Zheng Zhilong's heart.

Because there are Japanese soldiers, sea boats, and the leader under the banner of the Ming army, it must be Zheng Zhilong.

He had already figured out the loss of Yaozhou City. It must have been Tuan's carelessness and rushed into Zheng Zhilong's ambush circle with the few Ding Zhuang. The latter was a group of southerners, and he could no longer beat him. There were tens of thousands of people, and he could even pile up Tuan's little people. Then the empty Yaozhou City was naturally out of the battle.

But what about Niuzhuang? Although there are only 500 people stationed, it is obviously not something Zheng Zhilong can easily take.

But Niuzhuang City is small and has few soldiers, and there are not many cannons. Zheng Zhilong has the advantage of water. As long as he is willing to go out, Akdun cannot defend Niuzhuang. Can his men create 18-Banner Warriors? They are all wounded soldiers who retreated from the front line, and most of the remaining Ding Zhuang are just Baoyi Aha.

However, the coats are not trustworthy. Yaozhou City was broken by Baoyi!

Therefore, Yileshen chose to send troops without hesitation. He had three or four hundred people under his command, and he recruited all the young and strong men in the flag, and could have at least five hundred people. With his subordinates, he would be a piece of cake to pull out thousands of young and strong men. After all, Huang Taiji's two yellow flags had withdrawn from the Battle of Songjin, and Yileshen, who belonged to the Yellow Banner, was naturally strong in his troops.

This time, Yileshen brought out more than a thousand troops, which was full of confidence.

Although the Ming army was large, the twenty-year war had already cultivated Jianlu's confidence. They regarded the Ming army as nothing and regarded the Han son as a lamb. Their mental advantages were greater than Zheng Zhilong's military strength.

Even though he knew that Zheng Zhilong had a water advantage, he just wanted to drive Zheng Jun away.

"Since that's the case, Niuzhuang doesn't need to stay. Pass the order and attack with all your strength!"

Zheng Zhilong had the intention of besieging the city to attack the aid, so the role of Niuzhuang has been reflected. By luring Yileshen's thousands of troops out of Haizhou, they completed their historical mission.

As for whether the teams under his command can quickly conquer Niuzhuang, Zheng Zhilong is confident.

"Aim and let it go!"

The army had surrounded Niuzhuang. Not to mention the east of the city, even the outside of the city was strong. Large turtle dove-legged guns were lined up one after another, and the officers standing in front drew their waist knives and pointed directly at the west gate of Niuzhuang.

This is a large turtle dove-legged gun that can even be penetrated by shield cars. The ordinary turtle dove-legged gun can have 1.5 to 1.6 taels (about 56 grams), and the turtle dove-legged gun has at least two taels of gun.

The large turtle dove-legged gun that can penetrate the shield cart may not necessarily penetrate the city gates of Niuzhuang. The latter are all good anti-corrosion heavy wood, wrapped in copper skin, painted on the outside, and the outermost layer is door nails with gold. The texture is much stronger than the temporary shield cart.

But if one shot fails, what about ten shots? If one round fails, what about ten rounds?

Just like the city hammer, it kept hitting the city, so it came twice, three times, and the heavy city gate could withstand five and six times, but after ten and twenty times, even Akdun was panicked.

The entire city gate has been knocked into a hornet's nest, and several places that have been hit frequently have been transparent.

Zheng Zhilong put away his telescope and walked forward.

The two selected bald soldiers, holding long signs and carrying medicinal bags, rushed towards the city gate. At the same time, a musket and cannons were all aimed at the city gate and fired.

The Qing army on the top of the city did not dare to show up at all.

Niuzhuang is next to the Liaohe River, and the city naturally has a moat, but it has been filled up long ago. Zheng Zhilong used his own way to counter the man and used all the Jianlu and old men to capture the villages around Niuzhuang, and rushed straight to the top of Niuzhuang with dry firewood and dry grass.

When dealing with moats, filling soil bags at the beginning is the best way to do it. First, use dry firewood and dry grass that is large in weight and light in weight, and have buoyancy to cover the moat. Then use the soil bag to cover it and then lay wooden boards on it, which will make half the effort with twice the effort.

Akdun proves that animals are also determined. These Tartars regard the lives of men as grass, but are quite good to their own people.

One of the major reasons why Niuzhuang's moat was easy to fill is that Akdun took action. But this can only make Zheng Zhilong want to kill people even more!

The defenders were so much that they could not raise their heads by guns, so they naturally could not stop the two bald soldiers from approaching. These people were brave men in surrender. Anyone who wanted to make meritorious service and atone for sins could sign up. But one thing must be tied to relatives.

Two bald soldiers rushed to the city gate quickly, and two ten-pound bags of medicine powder were in place, and then they ignited the fire and evacuated.

Both of them didn't want their shields, and they ran wildly in the opposite direction along the diagonal line. But they didn't run far away, and two loud bangs sounded. Even though the huge shock wave was swallowed up by the open space in the opposite direction, the air wave still affected the two of them. Just like a hammered on the back, both of them were overturned to the ground.

"Kill--" Gan Hui put down his hands that were blocking his ears, and saw that the west gate of Niuzhuang had already opened. There were only some remains of the city gate before and remained at the city gate. If you don't rush at this time, when will you wait?

Akdun was stunned. The sudden explosion made the city gate shake. His feet softened and he fell to the ground and couldn't even stand up.

Blood flowed in his ears, leaving only a buzzing sound, and the rest could never be heard again. Even a bannerman hugged him, shouting wildly, and Akdun didn't hear a word.
Chapter completed!
