Although the Ming army was prepared in a hurry, however, Chen Qiyu himself had been a supervisor, and he was not unfamiliar with the battle array, and there was Luo Yu next to him for a long time with Sun Chuanting's pro-army to help, the defense of Luoyang City can also be said to be leaky, although the Qing army Han Army Eight Banners combat power is not bad, but relying on the geographical location of the city wall, Luoyang City is still as stable as Mount Tai, after the initial tension and chaos, the defenders of Luoyang City gradually stabilized, and all kinds of defenses are handy, The Qing army besieging the city was like dumplings by the Ming army one by one or stabbed or chopped, one after another fell off the city, just one hour of the battle, the Qing army casualties reached thousands of people, the first siege was the first to be drunk!

Soon, it was getting dark, and Zilharang had to temporarily stop the attack, and take a break to prepare for another battle.

The Qing army retreated, Chen Qiyu and Song Qing began to count the troops, just more than an hour of battle, the Ming army casualties have reached hundreds, the streets behind the city wall, lying full of wounded soldiers, constantly moaning, making people's hearts tremble.

"My lord, we still can't take it lightly, the Manchurian Tartars will attack us again at any time, tomorrow's attack is not terrible, the sneak attack at night is the most troublesome, we must arrange enough patrol soldiers, light more torches, and always guard against the Qing army to launch a night attack!"

Luo Yu reminded, Chen Qiyu nodded, and hurriedly arranged to go down, the four walls were patrolling Ming troops, and each squad had two gongs in their hands, so that once the enemy situation was discovered, they could respond as soon as possible.

Luoyang City was heavily defended, and even if Zilharang intended to launch a night attack, there was no chance.

Soon, the next day came, it was just dawn, and the Qing army attacked again!

More than 40 artillery pieces were pulled out again, and launched a fierce artillery bombardment towards Luoyang City, shaking the heavens and the earth, some shells even hit the city directly, fell on the houses, smashed the houses, and there was a terrible howl in the houses, of course, the most difficult was the soldiers who defended the city, a big battle kicked off again, and the officers and soldiers were constantly injured by the flying bricks and stones, and the wails resounded throughout the sky above Luoyang City!

With the fierce artillery bombardment, 10,000 Han infantry rushed towards the city again, this time the artillery did not even stop, providing cover for the Han army, the soldiers on the city head were suppressed by the threat of artillery, and they did not dare to lean out to look, how could they launch a counterattack in time?

"Not good!"

Luo Yu saw the approaching infantry, and shouted: "The Qing army has rushed up, give the order, attack!" ”

The soldiers of the Ming army had to brave the artillery arrows to climb the city, and began to shoot feather arrows quickly towards the city, suppressing the approach of the Qing infantry, however, this time the results were obviously not as good as yesterday, with the suppression of artillery fire and bows and arrows, the soldiers of the Ming army were above the city, and if they were not careful, they would be injured, how could they fight back forcefully?

A moment later, the siege ladder was set up on the city wall again, and the Qing army rushed up along the ladder again, attacking, attacking, attacking, today Prince Zhuang has issued a death order, today must take Luoyang City!

More and more people climbed the top of the city along the ladder, and began to attack the Ming army, trying to jump into the city, not too much, as long as dozens of people enter the city, you can destroy the city defense within more than ten zhang, the inside should be combined with the outside, the city defense will be broken!

Luo Yu's face was cold, and now the bow and arrow can no longer stop the attack of the Qing army, so the only way to use the spear is to use the spear, Luo Yu gave an order, hundreds of Ming troops are armed with spears, and those who do not have spears are holding a bamboo pole or ash pole with a spear head, constantly stabbing at the Qing army in front of them!

One by one, the Qing army was speared directly through the chest, and a terrible scream came out of the mouth, and fell to the city in an instant, but there were also Ming troops who were constantly cut down by the sabers in the hands of the Qing army, and died unexpectedly, and the two sides launched a tragic battle on the city!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

After yesterday's battle, although the Ming army and the elite combat power have not improved much, but the courage is a lot stronger, after all, the Qing army in front of them is also a person, and they have to die if they stab a shot, and they have to die if they cut a knife, so what are you afraid of? Today's Ming army is more fierce than yesterday, going forward one after another, the soldiers in front fall under the city, and the soldiers behind will quickly block the gap in the defense of the city wall, leaving no chance for the Qing army!

Bitter fighting, a hard battle, lasted for two hours, the time had reached noon, the casualties of the Qing army and the Ming army reached an astonishing three to one, which is already quite a huge proportion, you must know that the Ming army is facing the elite infantry of the eight banners of the Han army, not the rabble led by Li Zicheng back then!

In half a day, nearly a thousand corpses of the Qing army were piled up under the city again, and the powerful offensive was once again in vain, and the Qing army had to withdraw temporarily!

"Damn bastard!"

Zilharang shouted viciously, the horsewhip in his hand was volleyed fiercely, and shouted angrily: "Order, launch the artillery bombardment again!" Concentrate all the artillery on Xicheng and storm Xicheng with all my might, I want to blast Xicheng out of a gap in the shortest possible time! Zu Dashou, you fucking pull the elite of your subordinates up for me, and the generals will take the lead in the city, and this king will not believe it, and he will not be able to take Luoyang City! Whoever is the first to ascend to the top of the city will be rewarded with five thousand taels of silver! ”

Immediately afterwards, the artillery was powerful again, a cannonball roared and smashed into the city wall, falling on the head of Luoyang City, more violent than just now, fortunately, although the city wall of Luoyang City is not as strong as Kaifeng Mansion and Daimyo's Mansion, but it is also very strong, the city wall is tall, when Li Zicheng attacked the city, the part that collapsed has already been built with green bricks, in a short time, if you want to destroy the city wall with these artillery, it is not very possible, it can only form a strong psychological deterrent to the Ming army!

Above the city, Song Qing and Xu Shuqing and others looked at it from afar, watching a cannonball hit it, although the city wall can still hold on, but the outer wall of the blue bricks is already dilapidated, and some places have leaked out the rammed earth inside, the battle is tragic, the most terrible thing is that several old general cannons on the head of the city were also destroyed by the Qing army under the city with red-coated cannons, the Qing army is too fierce, not afraid of death, launching waves of attacks, Even if there is Chen Ge Lao in this Luoyang City, how long can it last?

With the power of artillery, the Eight Banners of the Han Army once again launched a fierce attack on the city, attacking!

Groups of infantry howled and rushed up again, this time, under the pressure of Ji'er Harang, Zu Dashou had to show his family background, the children of the Zu family, this is the core combat power of Jinzhou Guanning Iron Cavalry!

"Charge, charge!"

The temptation of five thousand taels of silver, and this time it was the fierce general who personally led the team, Zu Dashou sent two battalion generals with six generals to launch a surprise attack directly!
