The shells flew towards the fortifications outside Chenyang City like rain, and the rumbling and explosions kept ringing on the fortifications.

Huang Taiji made the red-clothed cannon set up by Dorgon on the earth wall have no effect and was directly covered by artillery fire. He was destroyed by dense artillery fire without even firing a single shell.

At this time, Huang Taiji finally arrived at the city gate building on the west city wall. He looked at the bombed fortifications outside the city and his face turned pale.

"Why why is this happening? When did Xuanzhen soldiers have such powerful weapons?" Huang Taiji looked at the explosion in front of him, his eyes widened, his face was panicked, and he roared tremblingly.

Huang Taiji had only seen 120mm mortars and 40 fires before, and had never seen 152mm Canon howitzers and 107 rocket launchers.

"How could this happen? How many defenders have you set up outside the city?" Huang Taiji screamed and hurriedly looked at Dorgon, who was also panicked in the city gate building.

Dorgon swallowed, wiped the cold sweat from his face, and shouted at Huang Taiji: "I have set up five thousand defenders outside the city, and I'm afraid it will be gone!"

Dorgon had set up five thousand defenders on the fortifications before, with the main purpose being to defend Zhao Wen's troops and protect the fortifications.

"It's over, it's over, all these soldiers and horses are about to be finished." Huang Taiji slapped his thigh and sighed to the sky.

"Order the red-clothed cannons on the top of the city to open fire and bomb the cannons outside the city!" Huang Taiji pointed to the artillery position outside the city and shouted at Oboi beside him.

"Shank you, the red-clothed cannon can't hit that far, even if it can hit that far. Two miles away, the red-clothed cannon cannon cannon cannon fly to where it will go. We may not hit it at all." Before Oboi could speak, Dorgon pointed to the artillery position outside and roared at Huang Taiji.

Things have reached this level, and Huang Taiji doesn't care about anything.

He slapped the pillars in the city gate building, with a fierce look on his face, and gritted his teeth and shouted: "If you can't hit it, you must fire it. Order all the cannons on the city wall to fire me, and order all the cannons on the city wall to fire me!"

Huang Taiji said at the end and shouted directly.

"Oh!" Dorgon shook his sleeve, sighed, and led a dozen personal guards out of the city gate building.

"Swoosh swosh swosh!!!"

"Bang bang bang!!!"

The shells fell on the fortifications, like a heavy rain in summer, without stopping for a moment.

Fortifications made of rammed earth constantly exploded, and each explosion could blow up a huge pit on the fortifications.

The fortifications were exploded and covered with smoke and dust, making the defenders above them unclear the front.

"Run quickly, this is not something we can resist. This is the divine thunder in the sky. Run quickly!!!"

The soldiers on the earthen wall panicked, threw down the weapon in their hands, and ran away to escape towards Chenyang City.

But the shells were like eyes growing, chasing them and hitting them.

A dozen people crowded together and fled towards Chenyang City.

A shell fell into the center of them, and a huge explosion enveloped them, and the fragments produced flew towards them like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

With just one shell, all of these ten people were wiped out.

The fortifications were gradually destroyed under the cover of artillery fire.

"fire!"

In Chenyang City, a Huangqi Niulu Zhangjing stood next to a red-clothed cannon. After the red-clothed cannon was loaded, he raised the waist knife in his hand, pointed at the cannon position in front of him, and shouted loudly.

The gunner who controlled the red cannon hurriedly ignited the fuse behind the cannon.

"Shit!"

The flames followed the fuse and headed towards the cannon chamber. After a few breaths, a roaring cannon sounded.

The solid shells in the red cannon flew forward under the push of black gunpowder.

When the red-clothed cannon fired, other red-clothed cannons on the city wall also began to fire.

The roaring cannons instantly attracted the attention of the defenders on the city.

"We fired the gun and fired the gun and fired the gun and fired the gun and fired the gun!!!"

The defenders on the top of the city looked in the direction of the red cannon and cheered.

However, the gap in industrial level for hundreds of years is not so easy to cross.

Although the red-clothed cannons on the top of the city were shocking, almost none of the shells fired could reach the artillery position five miles away.

The shells fired by the red cannon flew out not long after they deviated from the target, and I don’t know where they flew.

Even if the shells of the red-clothed cannon can mount the artillery position, the impact on the artillery position can be ignored.

Zhao Wen held up his telescope and looked at the fire generated when the red-clothed cannon fired on the top of Chenyang City, and said coldly: "I still want to resist stubbornly? What a joke."

Zhao Wen put down the telescope in his hand and said to the messenger behind him: "Transfer my order and bombard the fortifications outside the city, and then directly bomb the walls of Chenyang City!"

"Abide by the order!"

The messenger behind him clasped his fists at Zhao Wen and rushed towards the artillery position with Zhao Wen's order.

"Damn it, damn it, why didn't there be a single shot hit Xuanzhen soldiers? How could there be no shell hit Xuanzhen soldiers? What's going on?"

After the shells of the red-clothed cannon flew out, Huang Taiji squinted his eyes and looked at the artillery position outside the city.

However, according to the density of shells fired by Xuanzhen artillery, no shells fired by the red-clothed cannon on the top of the city hit.

If there are shells hit the artillery positions outside the city, the density of shells fired from the Xuanzhen artillery positions will definitely be reduced. However, the density of shell explosions outside the city has not decreased at all. From this perspective, it means that there is no shell hitting the artillery positions of Xuanzhen soldiers.

"Damn it, it's so damn!" Huang Taiji slapped the pillar in the city gate building, shouting with anger and Zhang Huang's face.

"Da Khan, it's dangerous here. Let's go back. What if Dahan Khan has a short time, what should I do?" Oboi, beside Huang Taiji, was anxious and persuading Huang Taiji with a bitter expression.

Huang Taiji snorted coldly, "Hmph, if Ben Khan wants to survive and die with Shengjing City, how can he retreat from the city wall because of fear? If Ben Khan retreats from the city wall, what do you think of Ben Khan?

Don't mention this in front of the Khan in the future. This Shengjing City was handed over to Ben Khan by his father Khan, and Ben Khan wanted to defend him. If Shengjing City could not be defended, then the Later Jin Dynasty would be over.

After hundreds of years, we have finally gotten rid of the scene of being enslaved by others. How can we give up? Do you want Chenghua Liting to reappear? Don’t say too much. If you are afraid of death, then you will leave. Ben Khan will never stop you."

Huang Taiji's eyes widened, glared at Oboi, and shouted in a cold voice.

"The slave and the Khan survived and died together. The Khan will not retreat, and the slave will not retreat!" Looking at Huang Taiji like this, Obai hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed at Huang Taiji a few times, and shouted loudly.

"Haha, a good slave, what a good slave!" Huang Taiji burst into laughter.

"Bang!!!"

At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly sounded on the walls of Chenyang City.

Huang Taiji thought that Xuanzhen's shells had landed on the top of the city, so he hurriedly looked in the direction of the explosion.

After more than a dozen breaths, Dorgon rushed over with his personal guards.

Before Huang Taiji could ask questions, Dorgon pointed to the direction where the explosion sounded, and shouted: "There was a red-clothed cannon that had filled too much gunpowder because the gunners were too nervous, which triggered an explosion. All the gunners around the red-clothed cannon were killed."

Huang Taiji was shocked when he heard this, "How could this happen? What did these gunners do for? The number of artillery in our hands is not as large as that of Xuanzhen's military cannons. How could they explode at this time? Who is the officer in charge of that artillery? Let him get out and see me!"

Huang Taiji roared at Dorgon. Now, the red-clothed cannons on the city are in terms of quantity and quality, and there is no way to compare with Xuanzhen’s. At this time, every red-clothed cannon is very cherished. Now one is lost for no reason, how can Huang Taiji not be angry?

"Khan, the officer in charge was killed by the bombed cannon!" said Dorgon.

Huang Taiji slapped his hands and said angrily: "Hmph, it's so stupid. Even an enemy army was not killed, and he even gave his life. It's so stupid!"

"Now, I'll send me the orders to let all gunners be careful. Now that Xuanzhen's troops have not yet attacked the city, you must be careful when firing the cannons, and don't have any more gun explosions.

If the cannon explodes, the officer in charge will not let go and will never show mercy!" Huang Taiji waved his hand, his eyes full of cold light.

As the saying goes, heavy sanctions should be used in troubled times, and the same is true when fighting, especially now. If strict orders are not used against officers at all levels, it is probably difficult to continue the battle to defend the city.

Dorgon bowed to Huang Taiji and ran over the city wall.

In the northernmost section of the West City Wall, Dorgon's younger brother Duoduo stood outside a cannon with a red-clothed cannon, looking at the explosion on the fortifications outside the city in panic, trembling with fear.

After Dorgon left Huang Taiji, he rushed towards Duoduo.

"How is the situation?" Dorgon ran to Duoduo and asked nervously.

Duoduo squatted behind the wall next to the fort, pointed to the direction outside the city, and shouted: "The situation is not good. The artillery position outside the city is too far away, and our artillery is simply not reachable."

"Forget it if you can't reach it, we are no match for Xuanzhen at all. Let me ask you, how have you arranged the two white flags? Before, I asked you to transfer the two white flags to the East City Wall. Have you adjusted them?" Dorgon squatted under the female wall of the city wall and looked at Duoduo.

Before, when all the troops in Xuanzhen were at the city, Dorgon discovered a problem.

That is, there are Xuanzhen soldiers in the south, west and north of the city, but there are no soldiers in the east of the city.

At this time, Dorgon estimated that Xuanzhen would use the tactic of three sieges and one siege to attack.

In this way, the east of the city became their last escape route and their last way to survive.

Dorgon had no intention of defending Chenyang City to the end, so he asked Duoduo to mobilize all the troops and horses of the two white flags to the East City Wall. If things were not done, it would be easier to escape.

Duoduo nodded and shouted, "I've already been transferred. I've been transferred yesterday morning."

"Since that's the case, I'm relieved. You can watch here first. If it's impossible, move towards the east city wall!" Dorgon shouted at Duoduo, and then led the guard behind him to leave the place.

When the sun began to set west, the fortifications outside the city wall had almost been blown up.

The traps set between the earth walls and the earth walls are also covered with flying rammed earth.

These traps, which cost a lot of manpower, lost their effect at this time.

Zhao Wen held up his telescope, looked at the dusty fortifications, and shouted at the messenger beside him: "Send the order and stop the artillery fire!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen messengers rushed towards the artillery position in front of him.

When the artillery stopped and the dust and smoke floating above the fortifications dissipated, Zhao Wen finally saw clearly the appearance of the fortifications.
