Tong Tulai watched the enemy's explosives cart lean against the city wall, he knew the power of Lu Hanqiang's explosives pack, so he yelled hoarsely at all his subordinates, smash it, smash it.
So all the soldiers rushed to the head of the city desperately, and smashed everything that could be thrown down in their hands crazy, but it was too late, Tong Tulai felt a sudden shock under his feet, and a huge force knocked him and the people around him to the ground, and then there were countless cracks in the city wall, spreading in all directions like a spider's web, and then collapsed, he knew that Xinmin's city defense was over.
The Qing soldiers ran back to the garrison yamen, but before they could stand firmly, there were huge explosions in the north and south, shouting and killing like a tide, which shook people's heads and dizzy, and then, the whole earth trembled again, and there was sky-high dust covering the entire sky on the north and south sides, and the city wall of Xinmin completely collapsed.
Unexpectedly, the Xinmin City Wall, which cost countless dollars, was completely scrapped on the day of Lu Hanqiang's real attack.
Only then did I understand that under Lu Hanqiang's sharp weapon, everything was really vulnerable.
"What about the flag master," the people around him all asked the chief general in a panic.
Tong Tulai gritted his teeth and said: "This is the last territory of our Zhenglan Banner, we have no way to retreat, the city wall is lost, then we will fight street battles, all in all, Xinmin must not be lost, even if all the 40,000 horses are filled here, Xinmin must not be lost."
Then he gave another murderous order: "Gather all the family members of the generals above Niu Lu to the garrison mansion, and then use Niu Lu as a unit to divide the area and defend it, Niu Lu retreats to kill his whole family, and Zuo Ling retreats to kill the whole family." ” And so a tragic street fight began.
In the hearts of the soldiers, war does not matter whether it is just or unjust, it is just to satisfy the greed and ambition of the high-risk people above, these banner people are brought to the battlefield, they are involuntarily, the generals fight for their own interests, here, there is no concept of serving the country, only protecting the family.
The city wall completely collapsed, and Lu Hanqiang stepped over the collapsed city wall and entered Xinmin, but the result made him very dissatisfied.
Because just after their army entered Xinmin, there was no imaginary situation of surrendering like a cloud, and the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners were resisting to the death in the dense streets and alleys, shouting, gunshots, and the screams of the enemy and our soldiers who were on the verge of death were overwhelming.
Every house is fighting, every street is fighting, there is a boundary inside and outside the wall, and there are two turf above and below the stairs.
At this time, the only thing that the Fuliao army could occupy was a narrow line along the city wall.
Fortunately, the 50,000 Fuliao army is not a newcomer, they are all a hundred soldiers under Hong Chengchou, and they are no strangers to fighting blood and fire.
When the third squad of musketeers rushed into the city, it was a full force of 12 people, a squad leader, a deputy captain, and ten soldiers, but just crossed the collapsed city wall into the street not far from the city wall, just in the street, they encountered the fierce attack of the Han Eight Banners, a circle of 50 people, under the supervision of an officer behind them, howled, waved the weapon in their hands and pounced, the captain of the musketeer squad immediately ordered to stop the advance, 12 people raised their guns and pulled the trigger, With a puff of smoke passed, the whistling bullets swept the enemies in the front row directly to the ground, but they did not see these enemies turn around and run under their guns, but still stepped on the corpses of their brothers and continued to pounce on themselves, at this time it was too late to bag, so 12 people picked up the muskets with bayonets, shouted, and collided with each other, this was a real hand-to-hand combat, neither side had the intention of retreating, in this narrow alley, fighting for their lives, in this narrow alley, Well-trained auxiliary materials can not fully exert their killing skills, and the indefinite length limits their ability to play, although they have an advantage in physical fitness and psychology, but the opponent's enemies are more than four times, if it were not for the narrow alleys, the enemy would not be able to go around his back at all, otherwise these ten people would have been overwhelmed by others, just when the two sides were inseparable, behind this group of enemies, suddenly killed a group of musketeers, one was a row of guns, and then joined the battle group with bayonets, In this way, most of the enemy was annihilated, and the remnants of the enemy retreated into a courtyard by the side of the street, and continued to resist with the help of the courtyard wall.
The squad leader counted the number of people, but in this short period of time, he sacrificed seven brothers, among which his deputy was also killed, and he was also stabbed in the arm, but fortunately, the injury was not serious, and after a simple bandage, he could still fight.
Walked up to the opposing friendly soldier and gave a military salute, then asked, "Which brigade are you from?"
The other party stood up with a person like a squadron leader and said to him, "The sixth squadron of the 11th brigade." ” The squad leader stood up and saluted again: "The second squadron of the fifth brigade, the ninth squadron, squad leader, report to you, and now I will listen to your command." ” The squadron leader nodded, and looked at the personnel behind the squad leader, now that my squadron has dispersed, you join my team, and we will attack this courtyard together.
The ninth squad leader immediately called his subordinates, joined the squadron, and launched an attack on this courtyard, as a result, just when they launched an attack on this courtyard, there was a shouting and fighting sound from another courtyard behind them, which made them feel a little difficult to care about, so the squad leader took the initiative to ask: "Squadron leader, please give me a few soldiers, I will deal with these fish that have slipped through the net, please rest assured to help the brothers in that courtyard." ” The squadron leader did not hesitate to dial ten of his subordinates to him, and then rushed to the courtyard with the remaining dozens of people, and immediately the shouts of killing in that courtyard sounded again.
The squad leader instructed his fourteen brothers: "Now reload your ammunition, shoot in two batches, and try not to fight the enemy." ” Everything was ready, the captain kicked the closed door fiercely, but unfortunately the inside was already dead, and he couldn't kick at all, at this time, a brother leaped, climbed over the wall, but he just sat on the wall, a feather arrow flew over, he was very unfortunate to be hit by an arrow on the door, and fell outside the wall with a scream, this arrow is very deep, obviously can not live.
The squad leader immediately stopped the other brothers who were eager to try, and saw that the courtyard wall was made of mud, so he ordered the four brothers to prepare to tear down the wall, and the five brothers stood in a line, ready to shoot. t1706231537:
