The Tartar general who stood up just now obviously understood this, and he stood up to intercede for Zuo Enluo, just to give Abatai a step down.

Abatai personally dismounted, helped Zuo Enluo up, showed a kind smile on his face, and comforted: "Your Royal Highness doesn't have to be like this, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers."

How can I punish you for a defeat, I can see your loyalty to my Qing Dynasty. ”

After Abatai helped Prince Zoenro up, he looked at the other Tartar generals, and the smile on his face, which was barely squeezed out, gradually faded away, and turned into a fierce expression.

He shouted and asked: "Everyone, you have also seen the threat of this Ming army, and today is also the best opportunity to destroy them, who else is willing to take the lead and take Shunde down now?" ”

Listening to Abatai's words, the Tartar generals who had been brave in the past began to hesitate.

A Jia Lazhangjing plucked up his courage, stood up and bowed down, and said, "Rao Yu Belle, the Holy Lord told us clearly before we left the customs.

This time, when we entered the customs, we came to grab money, food, and women, why did we attack Jiancheng again?

According to the slaves, forget it this time, although this Ming army is powerful, but the number is only two or three thousand, and it can't be much of a climate.

Now that they have taken refuge in the fortified city of Shunde, with the sharp firearms in their hands, if they want to storm it, I am afraid that they will lose a lot of warriors in the army, why bother? ”

After this Jia Lazhangjing said, other Tartar generals immediately stood up and echoed: "Yes, Rao Yu Beile, I think that I have fewer people in the Qing Dynasty, and I can't exchange my lives with the Han people!"

To deal with this Ming army general, it is actually very simple, just like when we dealt with Yuan Chonghuan.

The current Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was originally suspicious, so let's spread some rumors casually, buy off some high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty, and kill a small general, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes. ”

Abatai's expression was cold, and he looked at the generals around him coldly, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Although he also knew that there was some truth in what these generals under his command.

But for some reason, he was always full of jealousy in his heart about this army of unknown origin, just like the Ming army that suddenly appeared.

There was an intuition that told him that if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to destroy this Ming army, he would definitely become a big trouble for their Qing Dynasty in the future.

And what made Abatai sad was that the generals around him had become afraid of the Ming army on the city wall.

This is very rare for Tartar soldiers.

The current Qing Dynasty has just been established and is in the rising stage, whether it is an upper-class aristocrat or a lower-level soldier, they all exude a steaming momentum.

Moreover, the leader is wise, and the soldiers are not afraid of death, so that the Qing Kingdom is at its peak at this time.

The occurrence of such a thing was really a surprise to Abatai, but at the same time, it also made his killing intent on the Ming army on the city wall even stronger.

Thinking of this, Abatai sneered, glanced at the generals under him, and said in a cold voice: "Why, a small defeat made you, the invincible Qing warriors, afraid of those Ming dogs?"

A small general of the Ming army, a small Shunde Mansion, how can they stop the front of my Qing Dynasty, since they dare to kill my Qing warriors, then we must kill a hundred proud.

Let all the generals of the Ming Kingdom know that they dare to resist the fate of my Qing Dynasty, and think that I am invincible in the Qing Dynasty.

When I know the morale of the army, I can't let it go, if my Blue Banner army is under a small Shunde mansion, I don't dare to retaliate if I suffer a loss.

If I let the Baylors in the other banners know, how they will think of me Abatai, and how will they see you warriors of the blue flag. ”

Abatai's scolding made these Tartar generals look ashamed, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Abatai continued: "Moreover, Shunde Mansion is a capital city of the Ming Kingdom, and the population in the city is large and quite wealthy.

If we can conquer this city, we will gain a great deal of population and wealth.

I have promised you that after the city is broken, you will not seal the sword for seven days, and then you will be free to rob gold and silver treasures, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, and even women.

Do you still despise too much of the treasures of your house? ”

"Hahaha......"

The Tartar generals, hearing Abatai's joke, all chuckled, and the atmosphere relaxed a little.

But Abatai's expression immediately became serious again, and he continued: "And I look at the ability of this Ming army general surnamed Li to lead troops, and there are few people in the entire Ming Dynasty who can compare with him.

Besides, he is only a middle- and low-level general now, so powerful, if he continues to give him time to grow up, he will be a big trouble for my confidant in the future.

Therefore, no matter what, we must strangle him in the cradle before he grows up at this time.

As for what you said before, those who use counter-plots, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is not a fool, he was fooled once, how easy is it to do it again.

That is the last resort to use, the best way is to kill this person on the battlefield, so as to make an example of the monkey. ”

In Abatai's words, the killing intent of Sen Sen made the generals shudder in their hearts, and they all bowed down and agreed.

At this time, fools can see that Abatai's determination to attack Shunde City has been decided, and who will say against it at this time and anger Abatai.

Seeing that none of his generals objected, Abatai nodded and began to give orders.

"There is an old saying among the Han people, "the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength", so I didn't plan to attack this time, and then as before, groups of people were sent up.

I plan to use the strength of a Jiala to contain the Ming army at the east, west and north gates, and all the rest of the horses will be pressed to the south gate for me, and I must defeat Shunde City today. ”

"Scum!"

Hearing that Abatai had finally made up his mind, everyone's hearts were pang, and they all bowed down and agreed.

Abatai is also very smart, before the Mongol attack, he can obviously see that Li Zixiao's focus on defense is Ximen.

The density of artillery and ornisons here is almost twice that of the other walls.

Therefore, in this general attack, Abatai gave up the West Gate, but chose the South Gate as the main direction of attack, and pressed all the troops at one time, intending to rely on the advantage of troops to defeat Shunde Mansion in one go.

Half a day later, the twelve Niulu's Tartar soldiers, together with the Mongolian soldiers who had just retreated, a total of more than 7,000 troops, all pressed towards Shunde City.

At this time, if you look down from the sky, you will find that the Tartar soldiers, as dense as ants, surrounded Shunde.

And most of these dense black spots spared a big circle and went to the south gate of Shunde.

In order to achieve the concealment of the attack, Abatai let the Tartar army that attacked the south gate probably spare a circle to avoid being discovered by the Ming army in Shunde City.

There was still a Tartar of Jiala in the attack on Ximen, plus some Mongol soldiers, there were more than 2,000 people, which was still a very large team.

Looking at the Tartar soldiers who were densely pressed up, even Chen Luo's face couldn't help but change color, and shouted loudly: "It's not good, the Tartars are all pressed up, it seems that this time the Tartars are bound to win!" ”

Li Zixiao saw the figure of the Tartar soldiers appearing below, and it was no longer only the cannon fodder of the Mongolian soldiers, so he knew that the Tartars were going to move seriously.

He took a long deep breath and said in a loud voice to the nearby soldiers, "Soldiers, this time the Tartars are in full attack.

They made it clear that they wanted to kill us all, and you told the official that we were willing to kill us by the neck, and obediently wait for the Tartars to kill us? ”

"No!"

"Your Excellency, give your order, let's fight these beast tartars!"

The soldiers of Shunde City also roared, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention that they are bloody men.

"Good!"

Seeing that the morale was available, Li Zixiao nodded secretly, seeing that the Tartar had already entered the range of the artillery, he immediately ordered loudly: "The gunners listen to the order, all of them fire!" ”

"Fire!" Sun Dazhuang shouted.

Thundered......

There was a loud bang, and more than two dozen cannons on the city wall opened fire in unison, and one by one the iron projectiles flew forward at a rapid speed.

Originally, using solid bullets to hit people is tantamount to using anti-aircraft guns to hit mosquitoes, and the hit rate is naturally very low.

But now the density of the Tartar soldiers attacking under the city is too high, and they are all densely packed with people.

Some unlucky Tartar soldiers naturally fell into blood mold.

A Tartar Niu Lu, who was wearing three layers of heavy armor and had a three-pole flag on his back, happened to be hit by an iron pellet.

The iron pellet weighing several pounds hit the heart guard on his chest, and the Niu Lu didn't even have time to scream before he was broken in two by the projectile.

Then the projectile, after breaking the Tartar Niu Lu in two, fell on the hard ground, bounced again, and ricocheted.

The ricocheting bullet still had tremendous force, striking the head of one of the Tartar armourers who was following Niu Lu, ripping off half of his head.

White brains and red blood were sprinkled all over the ground, the scene was particularly bloody, and many people on the city wall of Shunde couldn't help but hold on to the wall and vomit after seeing this scene.

Finally, the projectile fell to the ground, and continued to roll forward, breaking the calves of two more Tartars along the way before losing its power.

Looking at the corpse that was cut off in two orange pieces and lost half of its head, there were still a few companions who were injured and fell to the ground and wailed continuously.

Some of the Tartar soldiers next to him felt a chill in their hearts, and these Tartar soldiers, who had always been fierce, even slowed down their pace of charging for a while.

The Tartar soldiers were not afraid of death, they just hadn't met their opponents before, and their victories over the Ming army had made them arrogant and considered themselves invincible.

"Hurry up, rush all for me, but if you don't stop, cut it!"

A Tartar Jia, Lazhangjing, who followed behind, raised the long knife in his hand and roared desperately.

At the same time, he punched and kicked the Tartars who had slowed down, driving them to continue to rush forward.

These Tartars were much stronger than the previous Mongol soldiers, and after paying the price of more than 200 casualties, they still rushed to the west wall of Shunde and immediately attacked the city with a cloud ladder.

Bang bang bang...... Whoosh ......

By this time, the White Dragon Army's birdmen and archers were all shooting and firing arrows frantically to attack the Tartars under the city.

At the same time, the improvised ramming car made by the Tartars was also transported to the vicinity of the West City Gate under the protection of a group of Tartars with shields.

Seeing that he was about to be pushed under the West City Gate, so that the Tartars could use the crashing car to crash through the city gate and kill inside.

"Brothers, give these dog tartars a try, grenades, greet me!"

At this time, as more and more Tartars were killed under the city wall, Li Zixiao decided to use the grenade as a big killing weapon.

At this time, the grenades of the White Dragon Army are mainly divided into two types, one is a paper mine that is simple to manufacture but less powerful, and the other is a complex and powerful iron mine.

This time, Li Zixiao immediately brought thousands of paper thunders and hundreds of iron thunders, enough for a tartar to drink a pot.

With one by one, large boxes were carried to the city wall by the logistics soldiers of the White Dragon Army.

After opening the box, the White Dragon Sergeant took out one grenade after another, skillfully lit the fuse with a torch, and when the fuse was half-burned, he threw it outside the city.

Thundered......

Then, a deafening explosion sounded under the city, as well as a terrible scream, and after the grenade exploded, the stones, iron pieces and other sharp objects inside shot in all directions, killing and injuring many Tartar soldiers.

In fact, there are not many Tartar soldiers who are really killed, and the iron thunder is powerful, and it may be able to kill a lot of Tartar soldiers, but the paper mine will not work.

The grenades are mainly used to kill and injure the enemy, and most of the Tartars are hit by hard objects in all directions, making them temporarily incapacitated.

"Oh my God, what is this!"

Seeing the white dragon soldiers using grenades, the Tartar soldiers under the city wall were dizzy one by one, and the screams shook the sky.

Chen Luo on the city wall also looked demented, staring blankly at the boxes of round rumbling things, and shouted in horror.

But he could smell the strong smell of gunpowder smoke and knew that these explosive things should be made of gunpowder.

"How about it, Lord Chen, this is a kind of thunderbolt made by my army, which is very powerful to defend the city, and these Tartars want to break through our side, it is simply a fool's dream."

Li Zixiao walked up to Chen Luo and introduced him.

"This is really a fortified artifact! General Li really has a lot of talents in his hands, and he can even create such a powerful thing. Chen Luo said with sincere admiration.

Li Zixiao sneered in his heart at this time, and said in his heart: These are all the masterpieces of those craftsmen who are worthless at a glance in the imperial court.

These two thousand Tartar soldiers are menacing, and the attack is indeed fierce.

But at this time, on the west city wall of Shunde, there was Li Zixiao personally in charge, and the number of white dragon soldiers, artillery, and bird guns were the largest.

There was no way for them to attack at all, and looking at the Tartar soldiers who fell under the western city wall, not only rolling and wailing, but also the Tartar armor Lazhangjing behind them, their eyes were red.

But at this time, he did not dare to order a retreat, and he took on the task of feints, which was to hold back the main force of the Ming army on the western city wall and buy time for the southern city wall that Abatai personally attacked.
