Chapter 57: Battle of Zhenshan Customs
Chapter 57 The real battle at Shanhaiguan
The costumes developed from the simple vision of lower-class civilians or slave women showing off their fertility naturally did not go well.
The four royal guards could only try to avoid those scenes that were shriveled, droopy, or covered with bloodshot veins.
He followed Li Shijin's carriage with a dull head.
After a while, the group of people arrived at a courtyard with white walls and large tiles.
North Korea imitated the Central Plains dynasty in various ways, and itself was also the best among its vassals. The Ming Dynasty granted it the imperial edict of the king, and the title of Prince of Nine Chapters.
Therefore, the city walls, gate towers and even the style of the houses in this small town are all very familiar to Jin Yiwei.
Li Shijin's small courtyard is naturally the same.
When he saw the place, Li Shijin hurriedly dismounted his horse and bent down to greet the uncles.
"It's a humble house, don't be offended if you forget a few adults."
"That's not bad. There is also a pond. Since you have participated in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty, you must have also participated in the imperial examinations in Korea. Looking at you and Xiaoyuan, you are probably a pretty big official in Korea."
The north and south water gates are each only more than two miles away from the main gate of Shanhaiguan, Guanzhong Gate. If these two gates fail to allow Jiannu to get out, then the army attacking the city at the main gate of Shanhaiguan will be attacked by Jiannu from both sides in an instant.
!
This made Li Zicheng even more irritable, and he could only look forward to the information at the third pass.
Our army is at a disadvantage in the battle between North and South Watergate. Can we ask for help?
"Order the left camp general Liu Fangliang to lead 20,000 troops! Head to Beishuimen as quickly as possible! Order the left commander Liu Zongmin to quickly divide his troops to support Nanshuimen!"
But the problem is, even if it is blocked, the slaves can still support along the city wall to Guanzhong Gate!
"Hey, the position of county supervisor is similar to this. It is similar to that of the county magistrate of Shangguo County in the Ming Dynasty."
The completely eroded rear and the already eroded army made him anxious. He had to take advantage of the fact that his army still retained some combat effectiveness, and suddenly launched a fierce attack on Shanhaiguan.
Wu Sangui feels that everyone understands this, which is why he remains stable.
"A bunch of traitors! Evil thieves! Dog thieves!"
The key is that now Guan Ningjun and the others still have a share of our salary!
Who doesn’t feel itchy at the thought of this!
But now we are able to climb the city wall, all because of the sudden salvo of artillery before, and then the army pressed on! The soldiers of the veteran battalion of the Protagonist Army climbed over while guarding the siege tower. They braved the kerosene and ferocious artillery fire thrown by the opponent and rushed up to the city wall amidst the fire.
!
The soldiers of the old battalion used their lives to tear a hole in Shanhaiguan, and this was the result of the current victory.
And now the other party obviously needs a reliable helper for his operations in North Korea, so as long as he becomes a helper, he will always be of use value.
However, there was a handover of swords and weapons on the city wall, and the roar of firearms kept the battle at a stalemate. It turned out that the Jiannu sergeants had also entered the front line. With the help of Jiannu, the morale of Guan Ning's army was somewhat improved.
After Li Zicheng of Chen Bingshan Customs held it in for nearly three months longer than in the original history, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
I thought of asking the best medical officer in the city to find an emergency medicine.
When the collision actually occurred, the losses Guan Ning's army caused to the Chuang army already made Li Zicheng feel clear pain.
After breaking into the army camp and the Chinese army tent, at South Water Gate and North Water Gate, Li Zicheng was surrounded by a group of armored guards. His beard and hair were a little gray, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was much thinner than two months ago. When he saw the flag, he immediately
Laughing hysterically.
The four Jinyi guards casually exchanged greetings with a hint of occupational disease, causing Li Shijin to immediately fall into silence.
At this time, just like in history, Wu Sangui decisively asked for help from the Qing army.
This will inevitably make the battle more difficult, but as long as Shanhaiguan is taken! Relying on the huge advantage of troops, artillery and Shanhaiguan! Li Zicheng believes that he is also capable of achieving the effect of the Ningyuan battle of the Ming Dynasty!
The current situation of the war is favorable to him. Xifengkou was captured in only half a day, and Malanyu has also achieved successive victories. The only problem is Shanhaiguan.
While he was praying, there were countless people praying at a majestic pass more than 800 miles away from him.
After scolding twice, Li Zicheng's nervousness turned his eyes back to Shanhaiguan. Although he was chattering endlessly, his brain was running rapidly.
If the Chuang army attacks the city, the Qing army will inevitably come to help, and the Qing army and Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army will inevitably work together to target the Chuang army.
I thought of my two useless sons.
Thousands of artillery roared together, and hundreds of thousands of troops rushed out, not just at Shanhaiguan, but at all the pass points connected to the Shanhaiguan Great Wall at the same time!
He thought a lot along the way, thinking about the concubine he had only taken in last year and had not favored several times.
That arrow book said it all.
So Li Zicheng naturally kept it in mind.
Due to scruples, the Qing army camped five miles farther than the original fifteen miles away. The Qing army must have arrived a while later. When they arrived, the intruder army had already captured most of the city wall on the side of Shanhaiguan's main gate, and a large number of soldiers were flowing along the siege tower.
of upward rush.
Just as Zhu Youjian expected.
Defeat and injure Jiannu, and end his desire to go south!
Among them, the Guanzhong Gate is the main gate of Shanhaiguan, so just when Jiannu passed through the South Water Gate and the North Water Gate, he engaged the intruders who were attacking the city!
Several intruders rushed out from the side as if they had been waiting for a long time! Together with the siege troops, they blocked the Qing army at the pass. In an instant, artillery fire from the rear rang out, and countless shells went straight towards the opposite side of the gate!
Li Zicheng was unsure for a while.
Li Shijin nodded repeatedly.
In other words, whoever attacks the city first, then Wu Sangui will unite with another army to attack the attacking party.
"Then you are still half a military attache. Go ahead and get ready. We will leave two in your yard. The other two will accompany you to the city gate again. We will tell you when the things are brought in.
Order something else.”
Retreat or fight?
At the same time, other troops quickly passed through the South Water Gate and North Water Gate of Shanhaiguan and launched a surprise attack on the intruder troops who were attacking the city.
Wu Sangui was unexpected and hurriedly responded to the challenge. The front of Shanhaiguan was also in danger, and the intruders boarded the city wall many times.
"This official is actually the county supervisor of Yangde County."
Although Guan Ning's army was exceptionally brave, they still retreated steadily in the face of the huge disparity in strength between the two armies.
On top of the city wall, there were either small formations advancing or chaotic battles.
"Gou Jiannu! Hahaha! Sure enough, it's here! It's your grandma's!"
But within half a day, the sound of cannons was heard in front of Xifengkou, Malanyu, and Shanhaiguan.
I sincerely hope that Jin Yiwei can use him in his next plan and goals.
The identity of this group of Jin Yiwei is hard to say for the time being. They look alike after all, and what they say cannot be believed. However, based on their behavior, this group of people does not seem to have much killing intent.
Far from comparable to the officers and soldiers we encountered before and the unpaid soldiers in Beijing.
He also thought of ways to survive.
"County Supervisor? County Magistrate? County Lieutenant?"
Then he will not be in danger of being silenced.
News of the Jiannu attack quickly reached Li Zicheng.
And now the Qing army has also arrived.
But this time, the news and flags that came seemed to be a little off.
Therefore, the troops of the Qing army approaching Shanhaiguan quickly received Dorgon's order, ordering them to quickly break into and occupy Guanzhong Gate, the main gate of Shanhaiguan, and climb the city wall to help Guanning's army repel the intruders.
Thinking of this, Li Shijin couldn't help but pray.
Pray that cannonballs, bullets and arrows will not fall on you.
Fortunately, someone helped him figure it out.
"If Wu Sangui unites with Jiannu, he will retreat and stay in hiding to plan a big plan."
Speaking of this, Li Zicheng gritted his teeth and looked ferocious.
This is the last sentence in the arrow book.
Chapter completed!
