Chapter 345: Attack on the North Sea Ten

More than 40 Mongol warriors jumped on the top of the city, wielding their scimitars and slashing among the clothed soldiers. These clad soldiers who use birds, guns and bows and arrows are not good at melee at all, and when they encounter a Mongolian warrior, they are like being chopped and killed.

More and more Mongol warriors jumped into the city from the ladder carts and fought fiercely with the clothed soldiers at the head of the city. At this moment, the Eight Banners also rushed over to block the Mongol attack.

The Ming sabber hand, who came up closely behind the Mongols, pulled out six rounds of pistols and fired one after another, and one after another the fierce Eight Banners fell under the Ming pistols. After firing the bullets, the Ming army swordsman put it away, raised his hand and threw a row of grenades, which blew up the flesh and blood of the Eight Banners, and only then did the swordsman pull out his knife and kill into the crowd of Qing troops that had already collapsed.

The Russian soldiers in the fortress immediately turned their guns and aimed them at the top of the city wall, several rows of bullets fell, and several Ming saber men were unfortunately shot and fell.

"Blow up the fortress!" An officer shouted.

More than a dozen knifemen who came up from behind pulled out six-round pistols and fired at the firing hole of the fortress at close range, suppressing the firepower of the Russian army inside. Then the two knifemen walked around from the side, touched the shooting hole of the fortress, took out two grenades, pulled off the pull ring, and stuffed the smoke-emitting grenade through the shooting hole.

A ball of fire erupted from the "boom" shooting hole, and a loud bang sounded in the fortress, and the violent explosion was mixed with the screams of Russian soldiers.

"This is the entrance to the fortress, quick, come a few people, attack the door!" A Ming officer shouted.

Five swordsmen rushed towards the entrance of the fortress, and at this moment, the door of the fortress opened, and several barrels of guns stretched out from inside, aiming at the outside, and the two Ming swordsmen who were caught off guard fell with bullets in their hands, one of them killed and one wounded. The other three dodged the Russian fire, immediately pulled out the six-wheel pistol on their waists, and counterattacked the Russian army at close range.

Although it is a six-wheel pistol with paper shells, the rate of fire is much faster than that of the Russian army's flintlock pistol, but it is more troublesome to reload after firing six rounds. The three Ming saber men fired one after another, so that the Russian army could not raise its head.

A knifeman took out a grenade, raised his hand and threw it, the grenade rolled in accurately through the open door, and with a loud bang, the flesh and blood of the Russian army inside flew sideways.

"Kill!" The Ming army drew their swords, rushed into the fortress, and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Russian army inside.

In the narrow fortress, the Russian army's long-handled axe was not easy to use, and when it encountered the machete of the Ming army, five people were cut down in a row, and the Russian army cut down the three Ming soldiers who rushed into the fortress. At this moment, three more Ming soldiers rushed into the fortress, and three six-wheeled pistols fired bullets one after another, knocking over many Russian troops.

In another fortress, the Ming army had also been killed, and the Ming swordsmen first threw a few grenades, then rushed in and shot again and again with a pistol, and finally pulled out a knife to slash and kill, and finally controlled the fortress.

Large ladder trucks continued to climb the city walls, Mongolian warriors continued to pour into the city, and Ming swordsmen and breezed rifled gunners also followed the city. The Mongols slashed and killed in front, and the Ming swordsmen threw grenades far behind, specifically throwing them at the most densely populated places of the Qing army, blowing up the flesh and blood of the Qing soldiers.

"Quick, all retreat into the city! Don't fight at the head of the city! Russian officer Chernyaev shouted, "Use street fighting to destroy the enemy!" ”

The unstoppable Qing and Russian coalition troops retreated into the city, and they even gave up the city gates. The Qing and Russian coalition forces tried to use the buildings in the city as fortifications to resist the attack of the Ming and Mongolian coalition forces. The buildings in Beihai City were originally made of wood, after the Russian army came, the buildings in the city were renovated, and several castles were built in the city, although it was a wooden castle, but it could play a great role in the street fighting, and it was difficult for the Ming artillery to pull into the city to bombard those castles for a while.

The gates of the city were opened by the Ming and Mongolian forces, and the Mongols rushed into the city with shouts.

Just when the Mongols thought victory was in sight, arrows and bullets were fired from the rooftops of the city, and many Mongols were shot into hedgehogs in the streets. Several forts set up behind the houses, feathered arrows and bullets were constantly spilled, and the Mongols who crowded the streets could not advance or retreat, and many were shot, and even the Ming army suffered a lot of casualties.

The Qing Russian coalition army, which has mastered street fighting, uses the buildings in the city to cooperate with the castle defense, which makes the powerful Ming army of the Zheng Raid Department at a loss, you must know how fierce the 6,000 Ming army equipped with new weapons is, and the strength of the 6,000 Ming army is equivalent to at least 3 to 40,000 European troops at this time! What's more, there were also Mongols to help in the war, but the Ming army, which had such sophisticated weapons, was blocked by the Qing and Russian coalition forces using street fighting.

"Pass the order, don't crowd the streets! Steadily occupy the house! Zheng Xi had the order given.

Gunfire continued to fire in the city, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle. After adopting new tactics, the Ming-Mongolian coalition army began to march step by step, fighting steadily, taking advantage of the weapons in their hands to advance little by little, and encroaching on the territory of the Qing and Russian coalition forces one by one. Capture a building, defend a building.

"Steady! Wait until the Ming dog and the Mongolian dog are close to within 70 steps before firing! Nomin shouted, giving orders to the bannermen and the clothed soldiers beside him.

Twelve Manchurian Eight Banners, sixteen Mengba Banners, twenty-nine Han Eight Banners and about 100 clothed soldiers were hiding behind a half-burned house, and the Ming-Mongolian coalition forces took fire attacks in some neighborhoods, they did not know where to bring firewood, soaked them with fire oil and pine resin, and then piled up firewood and carried out fire attacks on some buildings that were mainly made of wood. Several rounds of rockets were fired, and quite a few buildings caught fire.

But fortunately, because of the cold climate, the city was full of snow, the walls were full of ice, and the fire could not spread, and the effect of the Ming army's fire attack was not very good.

The ruins of the ruined wall where Nomin was hiding were originally a house where a court dignitary lived, and the bottom was made of brick and stone, and the upper part was made of wood. The Ming army carried out a fire attack and burned down the upper part of the house. These soldiers under the command of Nuo Min, in addition to the Manmeng Eight Banners or mainly bows and arrows, the Han Eight Banners and the Baoyi soldiers are all firearms soldiers, but their firearms are very miscellaneous, including bird guns, flintlock pistols and carrying guns, these newer firearms, as well as bowl-mouth guns, three-eyed guns and other primitive firearms, and a small Franc cannon is also placed behind the ruins.

"Minggou is here!" I don't know what to shout.

In the block ahead, several Ming soldiers appeared, and before they were within the range of the Qing army, these Ming soldiers with long rifles flashed into the ruins on both sides. Then a group of Ming troops appeared directly in front of them, coming up in a frontal formation.

The Ming army hiding in the ruins before the "bang" opened fire, and the bullet accurately drilled into the ruins of the Qing army's hiding behind the broken wall, and several Qing soldiers who showed their heads were killed immediately.

"Not good! It's the Bright Dog Sharpshooter! A Qing officer shouted.
