Outside the western city, Wu Zheng had already ordered a general attack.

However, when Wu Zheng gave the order for the general attack, he did another thing.

After seeing that the direction of the fireworks signal was the county government, Wu Zheng's first reaction was that the situation might be different from what he had predicted in advance.

Chiang Huiyi attacked the county government instead of taking the wharf, which proved that the wharf was probably the most heavily defended place for the enemy.

In this case, Jiang Quanyi's choice was correct, but the time and speed of the general attack and the capture of the city wall were unknown.

The most important thing was to take control of the docks, and it was clear that once the general attack was launched, the enemy would have to divide his forces to reinforce the walls if they wanted to keep the walls intact.

As long as the dock divides the troops, there will be a chance to break through.

But the key point is that if the number of troops is too large at this time, it will affect the siege.

In other words, only a maximum of 100 people can be divided, so if there are 600 people attacking the city, the battle situation is still controllable.

But if it was only a hundred people, it would not be enough to make a surprise attack on the docks.

Wu Zheng thought of meeting with Jiang Quanyi, so that there would be two hundred people, enough to launch an attack on the dock.

At the same time, as soon as the general offensive begins, there is no need to contain or cover up.

So a team of 100 people was divided into the city from the collapse of the city wall that Jiang Quanyi infiltrated, and went straight to the county government.

Although Zhang Huangyan and Ma Shiying dissuaded him, Wu Zheng had made up his mind, and after handing over the siege command to Zhang Huangyan, Wu Zheng led his troops to set off.

……。

The defenders on the city wall really did not expect that the soldiers outside the city would attack the city during such a period of time.

Indeed, under normal circumstances, if you want to attack at night, you should choose the time of Yin, which is the time when people want to sleep the most, and now, it is already the beginning of the day, according to the habits of this era, many people have already gotten up and started the day's work.

In other words, this time period no longer plays a big role in raiding.

But now, it is the time when the sky is about to dawn, and the government soldiers have attacked, and the general attack has begun.

Because suddenly, the defenders were in a hurry.

Because it was not yet light, the defenders could not see the enemy beneath the city.

The muskets are firing and the cannons are roaring, but the effect is very different from that of daytime.

The soldiers had been rushing to the city wall before lighting the torches.

This burn was instantly connected, and the dazzling fire suddenly sounded, making the defenders feel dizzy.

And it is this momentary effort that is enough to determine the outcome of this battle.

The walls of Xiushui are so short that they can go up as long as a soldier stands on the shoulders of another person.

And when someone goes to the wall, the fight caused by this can get more people on the wall.

There were fierce battles on the walls.

The combat power of the government soldiers is indeed not as good as this group of Ziqing soldiers, although there are princes and prefects in the back to supervise the battle, but rushing to the city wall to start, after consuming a period of blood, the physical strength and fighting skills of the government soldiers, it seems that the stamina is insufficient.

Fortunately, the number of soldiers was superior, and there was a chaotic battle on the city wall.

At this time, the sound of muskets and the light of fire coming from the direction of the county government in the dark night were unusually clear and obvious.

The defenders were facing away from the direction of the county government, but the government soldiers were right.

As a result, the government soldiers began to make an uproar, "Look, the yamen has been captured by our army." ”

As more and more government soldiers joined the noise, the government soldiers who were climbing on the city wall and below the city immediately shouted in unison, "The yamen has been captured by our army." ”

The Qing army's front, which obviously had the advantage of combat skills and physical strength, began to loosen, they were a lone army, and the only reliance in their hearts was this city wall and the county government behind it.

This psychological breakdown, which quickly manifested itself in the physical reaction, began to rout.

……。

The county government was indeed captured by Jiang Quanyi, and it had already been attacked by surprise as early as the ugly time.

But the problem is that Jiang Quanyi can't hold it, not only can't he hold it, but there is also the possibility of being completely annihilated by the Qing army at this time.

After a quarter of an hour of fighting, with the consumption of physical strength, the physical strength of the Qing soldiers obviously prevailed.

Jiang Quanyi's government troops took over the rebel army, which had already suffered more than one level of casualties, and entered the front line to fight.

This kind of hand-to-hand combat, which is almost close, is the most physically demanding.

The enemy is face to face, and the distance between the two sides can be infinitely close, because the streets are narrow and crowded, so that every gesture requires more than ordinary strength.

But this is also a big advantage of the government soldiers, with the equipment and individual combat skills of the two armies, if it is in an open battlefield, it is likely that the winner will be decided in this quarter of an hour.

The replaced rebels, then entered both sides of the street, with their familiarity with the terrain, quickly occupied the roof, to the Qing soldiers to shoot arrows, what can be taken is the Qing soldiers archers counterattack, musketeers at this time, far less than the bow and arrows to handy, the Qing army musketeers are temporary muskets, they are not even skilled in loading, so, after firing, put down the gun to the waist saber to fight, become the main force against the government soldiers.

The battle situation is indeed critical, and the main reason for this is that in the previous battle, the Qing soldiers captured the people and used them as meat shields, which disrupted Jiang Quanyi's layout, that is to say, all the previous arrangements and defenses were useless.

In the end, the soldiers had to join the battle in the worst possible way.

With the huge casualties of the rebel army, and the government soldiers had to fight as a last resort, after the anger and bloodiness slowly calmed down, everyone realized that the cruelty and ...... of this battle Inappropriate.

But at this time, there is no choice, since there is no choice, you can only fight to the last person.

At this point, both the government soldiers and the rebel army are the same.

When Li Xiaozhu stabbed the enemy in front of him in the abdomen with a knife, and then was slashed in the neck by another enemy, he let out a half-muffled grunt and fell in a pool of blood.

When Liu Ergen saw Li Xiaozhu die tragically under the enemy's butcher's knife, he screamed in grief and squeezed forward, wanting to avenge Li Xiaozhu, but was shot in the chest by a cold arrow, and he staggered to his knees.

When Xu San was in a sad posture, with a doorpost on his head, he slowly slipped and fell.

Jiang Quanyi, who was in front of a room, knew that the last moment had come.

He raised his sword and shouted: "Brothers, die for the country, bless the family...... Kill! ”

A feathered arrow came at him and pinned his arm to the door.

Jiang Quanyi shouted loudly, broke the arrow rod, and then pulled his arm out of the arrow rod and rushed forward with the knife in his left hand.

This kind of bloodiness inspired the government soldiers and the rebel army, and at the same time launched a wave of counteroffensive against the enemy.

But everyone understands that this may be the last wave of counteroffensive today.

The Qing soldiers were forced back by this momentum, but then stabilized their positions and launched a counterattack.

Chen Hongfan, twenty steps away from the battlefield, pointed to the soldiers on both sides fighting on the battlefield, and said to Sun Zhengqiang: "Look, this is the gap between the two armies, even if they occupy the geographical advantage, the people, the Ming army will not be able to compete with the warriors of the Han Eight Banners." ”
