Shanhaiguan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Holy God bless the gods, my Ming Dynasty is eternal, all the princes and marquis are today, kill, kill a wife and a son, kill, kill a prince Wandai!"

Wu Sangui roared.

At this time, he was standing on the Yingen Gate of Shanhaiguan City, the huge brick-wrapped city wall under his feet stretched to both sides, behind the blue-gray female wall, countless soldiers were constantly firing outside the city, cannons, bird guns sprayed gunpowder smoke in the sky, in this gunpowder smoke countless sharp arrows fell in an arc, the cannonballs fired from outside the city whistled through, and even the soldiers of the Shun army had begun to appear on the city wall, and the Ming army defending the city was fighting fiercely with them.

And on the outside of the city wall, there were countless Shun troops who came like a tsunami and raging waves, pushing cloud ladders and carrying flying ladders, like ants clinging densely to the city wall, constantly surging upward.

Here is the same bloody battle.

Just as Yang Feng and Wang Yongji expected, Li Zicheng failed to surrender again after arriving, and then attacked frantically with all his might, in fact, the Shun army of 150,000 went forward to kill Shanhaiguan one after another, Bai Guangen in the north attacked Weiyuan City and Dongluo City with 20,000 former Ming troops, Li Zicheng personally commanded the main force to storm the North Wing City and the main city of Shanhaiguan, Liu Zongmin led another Shun army to attack the South Wing City and Ninghai City, at this time the North and South Wing Cities have been captured, and the water army of Longwu Camp abandoned Ninghai City and fled to the sea, The only ones left are actually Weiyuan City and Shanhaiguan City.

Wu Sangui had no choice, and now there was only a bloody battle.

"Uncle!"

Just then, a shout came from behind him.

"Prince, why are you here?"

Wu Sangui turned his head and said to Wang Yongji.

"It's all now, can I still sit down there?"

Wang Yongji said with a wry smile.

At this time, a house slave beside him suddenly raised his shield, and then an arrow pierced the shield, and at the same time, a cannonball whistled and hit the tower of Ying'en Gate, and the collapsed bricks hit him behind him and screamed, Wu Sangui found that there were a large group of local gentry behind Wang Yongji, and these landlords and old wealth were so frightened that they hurriedly took the shield above their heads.

"Fire!"

Wu Sangui turned around and shouted.

The four cannons on the city wall that had just been loaded roared angrily, and one had just been pushed outside the city, and the upper half of the ladder that was being lifted together with the three Shun soldiers lying on it were suddenly blown up by scattered bombs and flew out directly, but at this time, a flying ladder was put on the city wall, Wu Sangui didn't care about Wang Yongji, and with a wave of his hand, a large number of house slaves immediately stepped forward, and those strong men were chopped over several by the house slaves as soon as they wanted to run, and the rest hurriedly turned back with spears, and the Shun soldiers had already risen, I was stabbed again by those spears at once.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

More and more ladders and flying ladders were erected on the city wall, and then more and more Shun troops appeared at the head of the city, and the bloody battle between the two sides became more and more intense.

"Kill, kill the thief with this official!"

Wang Yongji pulled out his sword and shouted.

The gentry behind him also urged the house slaves beside him, and then they also entered the battle.

The two sides engaged in a bloody battle on the Yingen Gate.

At this time, there was only a bloody battle, the two sides had already fought hatred, the dead bodies of the Shun army everywhere outside the city meant that once the city was broken, it would be slaughtered if it was not done, Li Zicheng did this kind of thing, even if he did not slaughter the city, he would also fight the local tyrants, because of the emperor's call, most of the local tyrants and inferior gentry in eastern Hebei ran to Shanhaiguan to take refuge, and they also had to fight for the gold and silver treasures they carried, and even many gentry themselves took spears to make up the numbers.

Fortunately, a group of reinforcements of soldiers, especially a group of Wu Sangui's slaves, also arrived one after another, and finally pressed the Shun army back after a bloody battle.

In fact, such battles can be seen everywhere on the city wall of Shanhaiguan, because Xiluo City only built a Gongchen Gate, and the other city walls were not repaired at all, so Wu Sangui gave up Xiluo City, and all the Ming troops shrank on Guancheng and Dongluo City, he was responsible for Ying'en Gate, Dongluo City was Gaodi, Weiyuan Gate to the north was a high school election, and Wangyang Gate to the south was Leng Yundeng, and there were still 70,000 chaotic defenders in the city who relied on this city wall to defend.

But among the 70,000, the ones who can really be called elite are Wu Sangui's house slaves, and the other Guanning troops are indeed tens of thousands, but the Guanning army is not all Wu Sangui's house slaves, most of them are some guards, and the Shanhaiguan garrison of Gaodi is also a guards, and the rest are the strong men who are forced, what combat effectiveness can these people have?

Li Zicheng's subordinates have fifty or sixty thousand truly elite veterans.

Therefore, Shanhaiguan is also quite dangerous.

Fortunately, the fortress itself is strong enough, the emperor is a miracle and a series of great victories, plus reinforcements are expected, and those gentry are afraid of Li Zicheng to fight local tyrants, which adds up to the concerted efforts of the city, but it can withstand Li Zicheng's attack.

In the final analysis, Li Zicheng's army is not at the level of the Eight Banners.

"That's all there is to it!"

Wang Yongji stood in a pool of blood, carrying a bloody sword, and looked at the temporarily retreating Shun army and said heroically.

It's just that his legs are trembling too.

"I don't know what happened to the Holy One?"

Wu Sangui looked at the distance and said.

There is the camp of the Shun army, in the Shun army in front of the camp, a big banner with a word is particularly eye-catching, vaguely he seems to be able to see the figure of the big flag, the rampant world, and even the emperor out of the strong legend of Beijing City. Of course, this was just an illusion on his part, in fact, he couldn't see Li Zicheng under the banner at all, but the latter was looking at him with a telescope, and the pair of opponents, who were very legendary in history, looked at each other from a distance of more than two miles.

At the same time, another group of opponents is looking at each other in the same way.

"It's really insidious."

Yang Feng stood on the Yongning Gate in the west of Ningyuan City, looked at the bank of the Ningyuan River in the distance, and said with a melancholy expression.

His worst fear finally happened, there, under the yellow crank cover of the white armor Dolgon controlled the horse and stood, behind Dolgon, is a huge battle formation composed of a whole 10,000 cavalry, and behind these most elite Eight Banner Manchurian cavalry, is a large number of busy slaves, they are cutting wood and then building a pontoon bridge on the Ningyuan River, although after entering the spring, the river has risen a lot, but the Ningyuan River is still only a few tens of meters wide, it is estimated that this small pontoon bridge can be repaired in less than two days.

And then......

"Your Majesty, we don't have to care about them, even if the Tartars go south around Ningyuan, I'm afraid they won't attack the Shanhaiguan, at this time the rebellion is already there, even if the Shanhaiguan is captured, it can only be cheap, Dolgon will not do such a stupid thing."

Tang Yu said.

Dolgon's move was to force the defenders out of the city to fight in the field, he knew that there was no hope for the attack, the artillery was all scrapped, and the siege equipment could not resist the interception of the Ming army's artillery, and no one could stop Yang Feng from throwing the gunpowder bag, the total number of Eight Banners was more than 100,000 people, and it would be troublesome if tens of thousands of people died in order to fight this Ning Yuan, since this was the case, Yang Feng was simply forced out, and the field battle was the home of the Eight Banners, even if Yang Feng was powerful, tens of thousands of cavalry were enough to drown him.

But when it comes to attacking Shanhaiguan, I'm afraid Dolgon is not so cheap.

Yang Feng also understands this.

But he didn't dare to bet on the loyalty of Wu Sangui's guys.

Dolgon doesn't need to attack Shanhaiguan, as long as he drives tens of thousands of eight flags over and puts on a posture to join forces with Li Zicheng, then Wu Sangui can only choose one side to surrender, in order for Daming to continue to defend Shanhaiguan in the case of the enemy on his belly, I am afraid he will never do it. If he surrenders Li Zicheng, then Yang Feng is not too uncomfortable, but if he wants to surrender Dolgon, then Bai Guangen, who is outside the Shanhai Pass, will definitely run away without hesitation in front of the Eight Banners Army, and then it will be a stone properly, and in Yang Feng's feelings, I am afraid that Wu Sangui is the most likely to choose the latter, after all, those gentry prefer the Qing army.

"Your Majesty, your safety is paramount."

Li Yutian said.

He was vaguely reminding Yang Feng that Wu Sangui could be sacrificed if necessary, anyway, as long as Ning Yuan was in hand, the most important thing now was to ensure that the reinforcements arrived, as long as he shrank up and held on, the Qing army would definitely not be able to break through Ning Yuan in this situation, even if there was no Shanhaiguan at that time, it would be a big deal to abandon Liao and go southeast, Wu Sangui and the others should sacrifice for the emperor as ministers, not for the emperor to take risks to protect them.

"What if it's you at Shanhaiguan at this time? I promised my eldest uncle that I would not put a Tartar behind his back, and I also said that I would live and die with the soldiers and civilians of Ningyu, do you want me to break my word? ”

Yang Feng said lightly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your safety is the matter of the world, since ancient times, only ministers have died for the king, and the king has died for the minister."

Li Yutian knelt down and said.

"Dead? You're underestimating me, aren't you? ”

Yang Feng said.

Tang Yu and Cao Youyi, who were kneeling down with Li Yutian, looked at him blankly, these days they also know the upper limit of the emperor's combat power, although they are not far behind those ancient legends of the god of war, but obviously they can't do it with nearly 80,000 enemies, even if they add less than 2,000 cavalry in the city. It doesn't take much, 10,000 Eight Banners can pile them to death, isn't it a dead end to go out like this? Even if you add the rest of the infantry, it's useless, and there are not only 10,000 cavalry, but there are also 65,000 troops there, and one person throws a stone even if the overlord is alive and kills him.

"Spread the word, I want to go out of the city to fight!"

Yang Feng said.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty think twice!"

Li Yutian said.

"Do you want to resist the decree?"

Yang Feng said viciously.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's order is chaotic, the ministers can't be edicted, even if it is the holy decree of the jade seal, the ministers are the second assistant of the cabinet and also have the right to return it, Your Majesty is the department of the society, how can you insist on going your own way, Your Majesty does not abandon the subjects of Shanhaiguan, can you abandon the subjects of the world?"

Li Yutian said.

"Uh, you've got a kind!"

Yang Feng said speechlessly.

After saying that, he turned around and jumped directly from the city wall.
