Wang Yan ordered Wuchang City to surrender within three days, but he would not wait quietly for three days, but would join the army to attack the city the next day.

If Tong Yanghe temporarily relaxed his vigilance because of the three-day statement, then he could just take the opportunity to seize the city, kill him by surprise, and also beat the defenders in the city with a fierce offensive, so that they knew that he was bound to win Jiangxia, and not make a wrong judgment, and in the end, even if Wuchang did not surrender to him after three days, he would not waste three days because of this.

In the early morning, Tong Yanghe summoned many green battalions to pacify, promising to take advantage of raising the flag, but the Ming army was divided into three divisions and besieged the eastern, western, and southern walls of Wuchang.

The east and west sides were feints, commanded by Hao Shaoqi and Ma Jinzhong respectively, Wang Yan gave 10,000 soldiers to each of them, and the south was commanded by Dai Zhifan, and the battles were all elite of the Ming army.

In the sound of "boom~boom~", the battle for the city wall has been fought for more than half an hour, and the corpses and bones above and below the city are full of blood.

The city walls were dyed patches of crimson, wooden planks were placed on the moat, thousands of soldiers rushed across the moat, struggling to climb up, hundreds of siege ladders, more than a dozen have been destroyed, but new siege ladders are constantly being put into battle.

In the southern city of Wuchang, nearly 20,000 horses and horses of the loyal and brave army spread out under the city, densely paved together, artillery fire exploded under the city and at the head of the city, and countless soldiers carried ladders and advanced to the city.

Bird commanders and archers fought at the Qing soldiers on the moat, while sword and shield men and pikemen rushed across the moat to the city with their cooperation.

At this time, the loyal warriors had suffered nearly 1,000 casualties, and the defenders at the head of the city had also suffered more than 800 casualties, most of whom were killed by birds, and most of the dead were flesh and blood.

At this time, a group of green battalion generals had already rushed from the yamen of the governor's palace to the city wall, and Tong Yanghe also came to the most tragic attack in Nancheng.

When the generals of the green battalion got Tong Yanghe's promise, their minds became complicated, and the green battalion soldiers got the news that they were going to raise the flag, and they were also in high spirits, after all, who doesn't want to be superior in the future?

Human nature is like this, although the green battalion soldiers are not used to the Eight Banners, but if they can become one of them, they can't ask for it, after all, they are just soldiers to eat food, and most of them don't take the nation-state too seriously in their hearts, otherwise they wouldn't have shaved their hair and lowered their hair in the first place.

In the city, the spirit of the Green Battalion changed, some of them were very eager to become a member of the Eight Banners, some of them were oscillating between surrendering to the Ming army and becoming the Eight Banners, and only a very small part insisted that Tong Yanghe would definitely not be able to hold Wuchang.

At this time, with the supervision of the generals of the Green Battalion, the Green Battalion soldiers began to do their best to defend the city, and the results of Tong Yanghe's previous operation of Wuchang appeared, and a large number of materials he prepared to defend the city began to play an important role.

The defenders of Wuchang began to use iron forks to defend the city, which were three zhang long and weighed more than 100 catties, and were specially used to deal with siege ladders.

More than a dozen green battalion soldiers, holding an iron fork, the iron fork forked a siege ladder, more than a dozen people struggled to push outward, the siege ladder staggered, creaked, began to leave the city wall, upright outward, with a shout of the green battalion soldiers, the siege ladder finally tilted outward, and dozens of loyal soldiers on the ladder let out a miserable scream.

At the city gate, the Ming soldiers bravely cut the rope of the drawbridge, the drawbridge fell instantly, and was erected on the moat, nearly 100 Ming soldiers saw the opportunity, braved the rain of arrows at the head of the city, and pushed the huge battering ram to the door together.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the battering ram slammed into the city gate, and hundreds of eight banner soldiers in the city gate held the city gate to the death, and their bodies kept shaking with the impact of the battering ram.

There are dozens of ropes tied to the battering ram, and there are thirty Ming soldiers standing on each side, they shout to pull the rope and suspend the battering ram in the air, and in a shout, the battering ram reverberates and crashes into the city gate, so that the eight banner soldiers on the back of the city gate, in the muffled sound, are silent, just desperately use their bodies to resist the impact of the battering ram.

Seeing this, the Qing soldiers at the head of the city kept throwing arrows downward, but most of them were blocked by the baffles on the battering ram, and they couldn't shoot the Ming army below at all.

Countless Ming saber and shield bearers also poured across the moat, raising the shields in their hands to protect the Ming army that urged the battering ram, and they gradually put the shields into a turtle shell, bows and arrows, rolling stones, and wood could not hurt the Ming army.

Tong Yanghe stood on the city tower, his brows furrowed, the powerful combat power of the Ming army, so that his heart was greatly shaken, he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that he promised to raise the flag, otherwise I am afraid that Wang Yan will be able to break the city in one day, he looked down at the city, and saw that the Ming army attacked the city like this, and it would not take a quarter of an hour for the city gate to be breached, so he hurriedly turned back to a Niu Lu and said: "Abuzhen, you quickly lead people and smash the fire oil canister down!" ”

"Wow!" Niu Lu snorted, turned around and waved his hand, "Follow me!" ”

He took dozens of Eight Banner soldiers, immediately ran to the edge of the city tower, a moment, the city head smashed down dozens of oil cans, and then there was a rocket salvo, the turtle formation of the Ming army under the city immediately fell into a sea of fire, dozens of soldiers and sword and shield hands who pulled the rope caught fire one after another, screaming and jumping into the moat.

On the side of the moat, Liu Fangliang, the deputy general of the loyal and brave army who commanded the attack on the city gate, saw this scene and was immediately furious, and shouted: "Bird commanders, archers, suppress the city head, and then go to sixty people to hit the door!" ”

Thousands of Ming troops by the river, with three blows and bows and arrows, sprayed at the head of the city, and immediately shot the eight banners to death, and suppressed the eight banners at the head of the city.

Sixty soldiers rushed forward, first picking up large cowhides, laying them on the flames, then taking the ropes, and slamming the city gate with their battering rams again.

On the city wall, the battle between the Ming army and the green battalion soldiers has entered the white-hot point, the arrows on the city are like rain, the rolling wood and stones are smashed down like hail, the Ming soldiers hold shields to resist, but they are still smashed tumbling and falling, and the Ming army by the moat also releases the command and arrows to the city head, and the green battalion soldiers are constantly hit, screaming and falling from the city head.

Dai Zhifan, who was watching the battle not far away, saw that the battle was close to an hour, and the Ming army had suffered heavy losses, and there was still no sign of breaking the city, but his heart became a little anxious.

The loyal warrior army is Wang Yan's old foundation, and he attaches great importance to the life of every soldier, and Dai Zhifan saw the soldiers who kept falling off the city, and finally decided to fight in person.

I saw him vigorously raise his gun and shout: "Attack the city with me!" With a swing of his spear, he rushed to the head of the city, and hundreds of guards behind him, seeing that the lord would go into battle in person, his morale was immediately high, and he followed Dai Zhifan to fight bravely.

Dai Zhifan rushed to a cloud ladder and ran halfway up in one breath, and the green camp at the head of the city immediately smashed the rolling wood and stone head-on to him, Dai Zhifan raised a shield in his left hand and waved a spear in his right hand, and lifted a piece of boulder rolling wood from the top of his head.

Dai Zhifan is a martial arts student, from Yangzhou to follow Wang Yan, he martial arts are strong, only worse than Hu Weizong, after Li Tai died in battle, his status is comparable to Wang Wei, won Wang Yan's respect.

Dai Zhifan in the first battle of Yangzhou, lost a sight, in the army is known for his courage and good fighting, he knows that morale can be drummed up, in the Ming army and the Qing army fell into a tug-of-war, he took the lead, it will be able to boost morale.

Dai Zhifan climbed bravely, and approached the city in the blink of an eye, at this time, the green battalion soldiers suddenly waved seven or eight spears to stab at him, he raised his shield to resist, and the spear in his hand swept up, and instantly resolved the crisis, and pushed the spear aside, and then he jumped up, and immediately climbed the city wall, he raised his spear and stabbed, and in a moment five or six green battalions were stabbed by him and fell to the ground.

More than a dozen steps away, a green camp commander saw that Dai Zhifan was brave and abnormal, and when he saw that he was about to open a gap in the city, he was furious in his heart, and he shouted, and waved it to see.

Seeing this, Dai Zhifan smashed his shield at him, and the Qian Zong had to use a knife to block it, but at this moment, Dai Zhifan's spear had already stabbed in, and immediately pierced the Qian Zong, and then struggled to pick it out.

As soon as the Qian Zong screamed, he was thrown out of the city, and Dai Zhifan killed a Qian Zong with one move, and the surrounding green battalion soldiers were immediately frightened and retreated.

At this time, Wang Chang and Wang Guangtai saw this, but they were shocked in their hearts, at this time they couldn't care about whether to surrender or not, even if they wanted to surrender to Wang Yan, it was not this time, so the two brothers shouted loudly and waved their knives to slash at Dai Zhifan.

Wang Guangen arranged for his soldiers to deploy rockets to support the Eight Banners at the city gate, and to continue to burn the siege ram of the Ming army, at this time, a soldier rushed to him and shouted in horror: "General, Li Qianzong has been killed, a Ming general will attack the city, brave and difficult, the second general and the third general are not his opponents." ”

Wang Guangen's face changed greatly, if the Ming army occupied the city, not only would the Eight Banners have nothing to do, but even surrender would be impossible, he couldn't help but roar, turned around and ordered: "President Liu Qian, you go to support Governor Tong, and the rest of the men and horses will come with me!" ”

Wang Guangen led two hundred soldiers to the city wall, but the Ming army had rushed up more than 100 people, and hundreds of defenders at the head of the city were fighting fiercely.

This general of the Ming army was strong in martial arts, and he killed the two brothers one after another, and was forced to retreat to the city wall, which was in danger.

When Wang Guangen saw this, he was immediately in a hurry, he was too far away from the Ming general, and he had no time to support, so in a hurry, Wang Guangen had to open his bow and shoot an arrow at the Ming general.

Dai Zhifan was about to kill Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang, he was defenseless in his heart, and when he was caught off guard, an arrow hit Dai Zhifan's left arm, he screamed, covered his arm and took a few steps back.

Wang Guangtai's two brothers were saved in danger, and when they saw Dai Zhifan injured and retreated, they immediately found an opportunity and swung their knives to kill, and Wang Guangen and his hundreds of his subordinates shouted and entered the battle group.

The Ming army was too few people in the city, and was suddenly killed and retreated, and left the city one after another, and went down the city along the ladder to the city.

Wang Guangtai wanted to pursue, but was pulled by Wang Guangen and shouted: "Do you know who Fang Cai will be?" ”

Wang Guangtai was stunned when he heard this, but Wang Guangen replied by himself: "That's Wang Yan's subordinates, the one-eyed general Dai Zhifan, who swallowed his eyes, if you hurt him, you will feel our back road~"

When Wang Guangtai and Wang Chang heard this, they looked at the corpses of the green camp on the city wall, and immediately reacted.
