Watching the Qing army advance step by step, Li Xin felt an indescribable sense of absurdity. The camp was displaced overnight, and he should have been thinking about how to resist the Tartar siege on the opposite wall, instead of watching the city fortifications he designed with his own hands being destroyed step by step, as he is now.

With the advance of the Qing army, the rhythm of the war drums gradually accelerated, the yellow dust gradually dispersed, the building cart had been pushed under the city wall, the ladder had also been set up on the wall, and the soldiers got into the building cart and climbed the ladder. Gaoyang Chengshang hadn't reacted yet, and Li Xin only felt that he was holding a handful of sweat in his hands, wet.

Dolgon noticed Li Xin's nervous expression and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, the siege has just begun!" ”

Before Dolgon's words fell, I saw that the top of a building car was blown to pieces, and then the tall car body overturned, and the Qing soldiers on the top fell like dumplings. It was as if it were a footnote to Dorgon's words. Immediately after that, there would be explosions from time to time on the cars, on the ladders, and in the marching procession.

The sharp-eyed General of the Eight Banners finally saw a clue, and found that the Gaoyang City Wall was throwing black and round iron lumps outward, and this kind of iron lumps sometimes exploded violently in the air and sometimes on the ground.

Following what others pointed out, Dolgon also vaguely saw this powerful and terrifying iron bump, and he turned his head to look at Li Xin.

"Do you know what this is, sir?"

"This thing is called Blossom Thunder!"

Originally, he only told the ironworker who made mines in the city a few words about the principle of grenades, and the key to this was the time-delay fuse. Later, because of the frequent wars, it was delayed, and there was no result until he was forced to rebel out of Gaoyang City, who knew that they actually created it. The creative power of the ancient working people in our country is indeed not to be underestimated.

"Sir, can you make a few blossom mines?" Then Dorgon added. "If you don't use it against Gao Yang, it's it!"

"Why not! His Royal Highness only needs to find an ironworker, and Li Xin dictates to him! ”

Dolgon nodded with satisfaction, as if the blossoming thunder episode just now did not affect his interest, the battle was still in a stalemate, and then Gaoyang City did not choose to play a row of guns, but used the traditional way of defending the city to carry out a short counterattack, a few times was actually by the Qing army several Eight Banners armor soldiers on the city wall, the combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners armor soldiers was by no means boasted, dozens of Gaoyang Army soldiers surrounded them and were still beaten with heavy casualties, and finally relied on the number of people to fill in the life, only those Eight Banners armor soldiers were killed at the head of the city.

It was too far away from the southern wall of Gaoyang City, Li Xin couldn't see who was in command of the battle of Nancheng, but he could clearly feel that this person should be extremely experienced in defense, and the Gaoyang army only carried out short and fierce counterattacks at critical moments, so that not only did it greatly preserve the soldiers' bodies to deal with the long-term defense battle that did not know when it would end, but at the same time, it also disrupted the offensive rhythm of the Qing army in such a way of suddenly increasing the speed of attack.

Soon, Dolgon also noticed this problem, and turned to Li Xin again: "There are still generals in the city who are proficient in defending the city?" ”

Li Xin also told in detail how Zheng Xiyao took refuge in Gaoyang, and how he was wiped out in the fierce battle at the mouth of the pigpen river, this kind of events and people that have nothing to do with the overall situation, he has no need to lie, first, to avoid unnecessary trouble, and second, to fully exchange for Dorgon's trust.

In fact, he had a question in his heart, it was reported that there was a large group of Qing cavalry going north, but how did they encounter cavalry in the south? However, when it was brought up, Dolgon did not know much about it, and it seems that the matter was handled by Aobai.

The pace of the Qing army's offensive soon entered a trough, and the morale accumulated in the morning had been wiped out by the secret weapon of the Gaoyang army and the short counterattack style.

As the sound of the golden sound echoed rapidly and loudly over the Gaoyang battlefield, the Qing soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner until they all returned to the camp.

Dorgon quickly gathered the generals to discuss what to do next, and almost all the leading figures of the Left Army were present. Li Xin was also invited to attend, of course, only adding a chair after everyone, but this was already extraordinarily long. and was accompanied by the undercover junior colonel in Gaoyang City before. After introducing them one by one in private, Li Xin finally figured out that this was the first time he had sat with so many celebrities since he crossed over. On Dolgon's right hand is Prince Hauge of Su, also around thirty years old, according to Li Xin's understanding of history, this product should be at odds with Dolgon, maybe he can make a fuss about him.

On the left hand side is Dorobel Abatai, the seventh son of Nurhachi, who was of low birth and did not have a strong maternal family as a backup, and had a low status among the sons of the slave chieftains, and was always excluded and hostile by others.

On the right hand side of Prince Su Haoge sat a middle-aged general, according to the small colonel, this person is Bai Yintu, who is Nurhachi's nephew, inlaid with a yellow flag and a mountain Ezhen, and is Haoge's right-hand man. Li Xin has a little impression of this person, but he is not very famous in history. Since he is Nurhachi's nephew, his status must not be low. Then on the left hand side of Abatai is Turg, inlaid with a white flag to solidify the mountain Ezhen, Li Xin, as a senior Ming history lover, has no impression of this person's intestines and stomachs, but it is certainly not easy to do the solid mountain Ezhen, and it is also a powerful person who does not show the mountains and waters.

In the end, the little colonel pointed to the twenty-year-old white-skinned general on the right side of the Baiyin map and said: "This is Ao Bai Zhangjing, who has surrounded Gaoyang City for more than ten days, and you are an old acquaintance with you!" ”

Xiao Xiao unexpectedly made a little joke with Li Xin at an inopportune time.

While Li Xin was observing Aobai, Aobai was keenly aware that someone was peeping at him, and a pair of eyes flashed over him, and he was looking at Li Xin. Ao Bai seemed to know the origin of Li Xin, but in front of many princes Baylor, where could it be his turn to be presumptuous, he looked at each other for a moment and then withdrew his gaze, as if nothing had happened, and listened to the discussion.

The first half of the meeting was very boring, roughly summarizing the tactical advantages and disadvantages between the Ming and Qing armies, and how to deal with them. But as it drew to a close, Prince Hauge of Su offered a different opinion.

"Gaoyang is just a small city, leaving 5,000 people to break sooner or later, at this time, the main task of our soldiers and horses should be to plunder Zhili and go straight to Shandong!"

After Haoge finished speaking, the Yellow Flag Gushan Ezhen Baiyin Diagram and Zhang Jing Aobai all agreed, and they all thought that it was worth the loss to continue to delay time under Gaoyang City, especially Ao Bai stood up and showed up as an example.

"Thousands of armor soldiers have been tied up under the small city of Gaoyang for nearly ten days, and people eat horses and chew a lot, even if they break through the city? Gaoyang is not an important town, and there is not much food, it is just a chicken rib that is tasteless and abandoned! ”

With a "bang", Duoduo slapped a few shores heavily.

"Why, Ao Bai Zhangjing is afraid of fighting because he has too many casualties in his son, or is he not the opponent of the southerners in Gaoyang City at all, and he is afraid of losing the battle?"

Aobai was not angry after being squeezed, "If it is said that Gaoyang City may still use me to worship a day ago, fifteen Baylors alone today is enough!" ”

Seeing that the two were arguing, Hauge coughed and persuaded: "Worship, don't speak in vain, your speech must be grounded!" ”

As soon as Haoge's words fell, Li Xin knew that something was wrong and secretly scolded in his heart, this Haoge was really obscene, adding fuel and vinegar under the guise of persuasion, and actually led the fire to himself.

Sure enough, Ao Bai pointed to Li Xin who was sitting in the corner.

"Because this person is already in our hands, the chief teacher of the Gao Yang Army!"

Only then did everyone take a closer look at this inconspicuous Han man sitting in the corner, Haoge was even more interested, and asked with his finger on a few cases, and pointed at Li Xin with his left finger and sneered: "Now it's not a fight to break the head to make our Eight Banners' coat?" As he spoke, he looked Li Xin up and down a few times, and his expression seemed to be extremely frivolous, similar to the two of them before sitting on the case. I thought I had three heads and six arms, and I also had a nose and two eyes! ”

Li Xin saw Hauge behaving like this, and deliberately made himself ugly, knowing that he was going for Dolgon, in order to embarrass Dolgon. Hauge, Hauge, is it any wonder that you later lost to Dolgon, and humiliated your subordinates in order to vent your personal anger. Thinking of this, Li Xin's eyes unconsciously showed a trace of sympathy, and his heart moved, and he blurted out: "His Royal Highness King Su, Ortaito, I will bring you a message and ask you to save him earlier." And, I said something unpleasant......"

"Who?"

Hauge couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Ortai, Nala."

Li Xin was stunned word by word. Hauge suddenly burst out and shouted, "Bow down! What about the people I handed over to you! ”

It's really a pot that can't be opened, Ao Bai was scared by Haoge, he originally wanted to suppress Ortai's capture first, and then explain to Haoge when he rescued people, who wanted to be stabbed out by the slave who should be killed, when Ao Bai looked at Li Xin again, his eyes had already revealed a faint murderous intention!

A few Baylors in the audience couldn't hold back their laughter, and Hauge's face suddenly rose like pig's blood, and he snorted coldly and brushed away. As soon as Haoge left, the Yellow Flag Gushan Ezhen Baiyintu also got up and retreated, leaving only Ao Bai standing there, stunned for a long time, and left with hatred. For a while, the dignitaries of the two yellow flags and the positive blue flag were all seventy-seven-eighty-eight, and Duoduo couldn't help laughing out loud anymore.

"Rejoice! Joyfully! Mr. Li is a thousand pounds, and he is really an extraordinary person! ”

Duoduo's gaze became much kinder when he looked at Li Xin again, "But I don't know how Mr. Hauge knew the allusion to Hauge's fear?" ”

This matter is almost a well-known secret in the upper echelons of the Eight Banners of Manzhou, but it is insignificant to outsiders.

"Because Li Xinsheng captured Ortai, the younger brother of Haoge Side Fujin!"

Because Ao Bai deliberately suppressed the news of Ortai's capture, most people thought that he had gone to be a forward ranger, who would have thought that at this moment he was suffering in Gaoyang Prison! Suddenly, several dignitaries, including the White Flag Gushan Ezhen Turge, also paid a little more attention to Li Xin's gaze.

Manchurian is the most important, although Ortai is arrogant and annoying, but he has to admit that he has extremely vigorous skills and battlefield instincts.

It is said that this son is not very good with Akzia, the younger brother of the Baiyintu family, but he doesn't know what happened to Akzia?
