Chapter Nineteen

The common people in North Korea returned to the Jurchen military camp. They held their wives and children as hostages and cried loudly. In return, the Jurchen prisoners who were hanging on the city wall were also dragged back.

The so-called "Jueluo Baishan" was also sent back to the tower. The old guy was valuable, and Li Xiao didn't want to waste the old guy like this.

Hong Yihan was very excited. When the Japanese invaders invaded North Korea, they often used North Korean people as cannon fodder. The feeling of killing oneself was too uncomfortable. Just now, I thought I would experience it again, but I didn't expect that Li Xiao would come up with it.

Come this way.

He kept bowing to Li Xiao to express his sincere gratitude. Not only him, but the North Korean soldiers also looked at Li Xiao gratefully. They were really unwilling to shoot their own compatriots!

The gnashing of teeth is gnashing of teeth, and the battle has to be fought. Since the Koreans cannot be used, we can only bravely charge forward. Amin waved his hand, and the blue flag took the lead in attacking.

Li Xiao still straightened his arms, clenched his right hand into a fist, and raised his thumb high. Looking at the Tatar soldiers moving in the distance, these people huddled behind the carts and kept approaching the city wall. Some of them had bows and arrows.

The other part is holding a pickaxe, a drill, a sledgehammer and the like. The task of these people is to drill through the city wall!

The city wall of Pyongyang is made of bricks. As long as a large hole is dug in the ground, the entire city will collapse. The collapse of the city wall is often a chain reaction. If one section collapses, a large section can be opened along the way. Many Ming soldiers

This is how the city was breached.

Putting it at a distance of about 150 steps, Li Xiao gave the order: "Let it go!"

The gunners knocked the hammers of the trebuchets one after another, and dozens of bombs with green smoke flew towards the Tatar formation.

"Boom", "boom", "boom"...! Each carriage was blown to pieces and scattered, and the Jurchen archers behind the carriage suffered heavy casualties.

Before the Jurchen infantry could wake up from the stupor of being bombed, there was a burst of "cracking" firecrackers from the city wall. Countless lead balls were fired from the barrels of the guns, and the Jurchen soldiers who were not blocked by the carriages immediately felt their bodies

Blood springs gushed.

These Jurchen soldiers were all wearing captured Ming army cotton armor. At a distance of 150 steps, they were no match for the muskets loaded with Mini bullets. Those cotton armors were penetrated like pieces of paper.

Li Xiao saw that several Jurchen soldiers were hit in the head, and the huge kinetic energy brought the Tianling Caps flying up. The dead bodies scattered in the air and looked like tofu when they landed on the ground.

Before the matchlock gunners had time to fire a second shot, a platoon equipped with flintlock muskets fired first. The reloading speed of flintlock muskets was much faster than that of matchlock muskets.

"Pop" "Pap" "Pap"...!

After a burst of gunfire, the Jurchen soldiers fell to the ground again. Because the bullets of the flintlock rifles have rifling, the shooting is more accurate. After the Dum bullet is rubbed by the rifling and hits the human body, due to the temperature difference, it will immediately hit the human body.

When the human body explodes, large pieces of shrapnel will form an irregular cavity in the human body. As long as it hits the chest, there is basically a 100% mortality rate.

Even if it hits an arm or leg, it will basically be amputated. This kind of immoral thing was once banned by the United Nations. But these days, there is no such organization as the United Nations.

Due to the close distance, Li Xiao had a more intuitive understanding of the power of DAM bullets. A Jurchen soldier was only shot in the arm, and the entire arm was cut open by shrapnel. Blood spurted out from the broken place like a fountain.

The soldier howled and picked up his arm from the ground, and the screams penetrated into Li Xiao's brain from more than a hundred steps away.

For this charge, Amin spent a lot of money. At once, ten Niulu troops were invested, and three thousand people roared and charged towards the city wall. The Jurchens fully demonstrated their fierce side, and their previous victories

Definitely not a fluke.

Everyone seemed unable to see the screaming companions, and could only charge forward with their weapons raised high. A group of them were killed by bombs on the way, and another group were shot to death by muskets. The remaining people still rushed to the city tenaciously, without any

The bombed-out carriage was thrown sideways. To stop the rolling logs and rocks being thrown down from the city, the Jurchen engineers began to chip away at the city wall.

Listening to the "ding-dong" sound coming from below, Ao Canghai commanded with a ferocious smile: "Let go!"

The North Korean soldiers immediately lit 50-60 kilograms of explosives and pushed them down. Because of the parabola, the explosives fell on the ground three to five meters away from the cart and exploded with a "boom". Countless lead and iron

Nails flying everywhere!

This moment was fatal. The engineers who were swinging the sledgehammer were beaten into pieces one by one, like sieves. There were bloody holes all over their bodies. The most unlucky one had more than a dozen bullets drilled into his head alone.

Shrapnel. With a good head, it immediately turns into Saqima.

As long as there is a place where the carts are erected, explosives like this will be thrown down. Almost all the Jurchen engineering troops were wiped out. Those who were lucky enough to survive were injured in many places. It is not known whether they will survive until tomorrow.

The number of casualties was increasing at an extremely fast rate. Amin's eyes were so wide open that they were about to burst. Ever since he led the army, from Sarhu to Abdali Gang, from Fushun to Shenyang and Liaoyang, there has never been such a tragic incident.

In the siege battle, it is no wonder that the 1,200 red-armored Ba Yala troops in Jueluobai Mountain were defeated so miserably.

More than twenty people pushed the heavy siege vehicle forward with difficulty. Under the cover of archers, they gradually approached the city gate. But just as they were approaching the city gate, before they had time to hit it, many risks were suddenly thrown down from the top of the city.

Smoking things, as soon as these things fell on the siege vehicles, they began to burn violently.

The Jurchen soldiers were so stunned that they even took off their armor in an attempt to extinguish the fire on the siege vehicle.

Unfortunately, I don’t know what that thing is made of. As long as it touches anywhere, it will start to catch fire. The cotton armor didn’t even hit twice, and the cotton armor also started to burn.

Enduring the burning pain, the Jurchen soldiers kept beating. Another "Ten Thousand Enemies" was thrown down, and the Jurchen soldiers' whole bodies began to burn. The screams made people's hearts begin to shrink, and all the people's hearts began to shrink.

The North Korean soldiers did not dare to look down.

The siege vehicle burst into flames, and there were more than twenty Jurchen soldiers burning with the siege vehicle. They were brave and tough. But they were no match for hot weapons. They exerted their muscle strength to the extreme, and they were still not the best.

The opponent of chemical agents.

"Amin! Let your people withdraw!" Seeing the burning siege vehicle, Mang Gurtai, who was famous for his bravery, had no choice but to advise Amin.

Who said that Amin was hiding his secrets in this attack? Mang Gurtai was the first to refuse to agree. Apart from the yellow flag, the blue flag was the most popular flag. Amin dispatched three-thirds of his men at once

With only one force, there is not even half a hope of victory.

The carriages were blown to pieces, and the siege engines were burned into torches. As for the ladder, it was simply a nightmare for infantry. No matter how tough the guy was, climbing on the ladder to attack the city would be a narrow escape.

"Withdraw troops!" Amin was actually waiting for Mang Gurtai's words. He didn't want people to say that he was a coward. Withdrawing troops now is entirely based on Mang Gurtai's suggestion. It's not that they are cowards with the blue flag!

The shrill horn sounded, and the soldiers with blue flags receded like the tide.

The process was exactly the same as when they arrived. First they were shot by muskets, and then they were blown up by bombs fired by trebuchets. In the process of retreating, many more men were lost.

Especially the more than 30 flintlock guns, which started shooting from a distance of tens of meters. Until the Jurchens completely ran out of the shooting range, many people could fire five or six bullets. The accuracy of the flintlock guns was comparable to that of a matchlock gun.

Much better. Even the worst shooter can focus at least two people by firing five or six shots in a row.

From the bottom of the city to the extreme shooting distance, the corpses of Jurchen soldiers were lying everywhere. Some who were not hit in the vital parts were still lying on the ground moaning loudly. There were also some strong ones who had to crawl back even if they were injured.

Li Xiao stopped his men from continuing to shoot, and the wounded soldiers could crawl back. At least the Jurchens would allocate manpower to take care of them. The screams of the wounded soldiers were the best way to destroy morale. In this cold winter weather,

There are no fixed barracks. It is very rare for a wounded soldier to survive a night.

Thinking of those soldiers with white poles and wounded soldiers of the Qi Army on the banks of the Hun River. In such a cold night, no one lived to see the sun the next day.

Now, let the Jurchen Tatars have a taste of this.

The moment the Jurchens retreated, thunderous cheers erupted from the city wall. Hong Yihan raised his hands and jumped up like a child. The Korean soldiers hugged each other excitedly. They have rarely won a battle for many years.

.Especially for the Korean Army, the number of victories is very rare.

Today they actually defeated the powerful Jurchens. Not only did they inflict huge damage to the opponent, but they also suffered almost no losses. Only a hundred or ten people were injured by locust-like arrows, although twenty or thirty people were shot in the chest.

So far, no unlucky person has died.

Miracle, this is a miracle. Everyone cheered, and some even sang and danced.

Li Xiao looked helplessly at these bastards, who had forgotten everything after the city defense battle. However, these Koreans could only fight the city defense battle. If they fought a positional battle, maybe the Jurchen cavalry would charge, and they would be frightened and collapse.

.

Nestled in the Joseon Palace, the shivering Li Shu heard the cheers. He immediately jumped up excitedly. Yes, these were cheers of victory, "Victory! Finally victory."
Chapter completed!
