Five hundred and seventy, fierce battle

Li Xingzhou hurriedly crossed the river from the big boat. The side ladder was limited, and there were not many people who could get on each time. It was difficult to cross the river and inefficient.

Yan Shen also briefly told him about the situation on the brave general Qi Rui. He was also very anxious and picked up his gun and wanted to get off the boat with him. Li Zhou reached out to stop him, "No, you stay on the boat and follow the defeated brigade. Don't lose it, it's best not to let them enter the mountain."

"How many shells are there?" Li Xingzhou asked, and the new soldiers behind him were crossing the river.

Yan Shen looked unwilling, but he nodded and agreed to stay, and then replied: "The two firecraft were about to be wiped out, the ammunition box was bottomed out, and the troop transport ships behind him still had many shells, most of which were more than half."

Li Xingzhou nodded. Each of the two firecraft had more than 20 guns, and he has always been the main force of the forward. Although he brought many shells, he fought quickly.

"Although the eight troop transport ships have more cannons, their firepower is dispersed, and they are not as effective as these two." Yan Shen stomped his feet and said on the deck.

"You continue to lead the fleet to the west along the river, it is best not to let them escape too much." Li Xingzhou ordered, and then took his men off the boat from the other side, and then went west to the high mountains and ridges in the northern section of the Taihang Mountains. If these people escaped into the mountains, it would be a big trouble. It would be best to force them to surrender.

But then Li Xingzhou was stunned. Fuck, he was so greedy.

I thought there were hanging ladders on both sides, and climbing was tiring and tiring, and the efficiency of crossing the river was very limited. After working for about ten or twenty minutes, I finally got about two hundred people to the north shore.

Time was not enough, Li Xingzhou gathered a team on the north bank, and then ordered Yan Shen not to cross the river again, and immediately led the fleet along the river westward and continued to attack the defeated army.

He didn't know whether Wei Yubai's troops crossed the river from the upper reaches at this time, but those who could only depend on luck.

"By the way, there are shallows in the upper reaches of this river, be careful not to get stuck." He reminded again before leaving.

Yan Shen nodded, dismantled the wooden boards between the ships, and reappeared the integrated fleet.

Li Xingzhou led two hundred men and after a little convoy, he marched quickly to the city of Nanjing.

Soon, from a distance he saw that the city of Nanjing was crowded with people, and the plains outside the city gate were covered with people, and the grass and shrubs were stepped into the soil, and there were shouts of killing in the direction of the city gate. At the bottom, you could vaguely see black-shirted cavalry in red and black clothes, and hundreds of prisoners of war rushed over from the river on the side were also trying hard to squeeze in.

The ashamed Liao people rushed forward desperately, and the black and unstoppable number of people squeezed at the city gate, which became a real bloody battle.

"Get bayonet!" Li Xingzhou held the gun and ran in small steps while bayonetting the rifle. He was very nervous. There were too many Liao people defeated the army. "Get close and shoot before shooting, don't hurt your own people by mistake."

He rushed over from behind with more than 200 people. He waited until he was more than ten steps away, and ordered to stop and shoot a volley with his back.

The green smoke in the fire instantly blocked the view. Li Xingzhou couldn't see the killing effect clearly, and he didn't know where his bullets were hit, but he could see a large number of enemies falling in front of him.

"kill!"

There was only one chance of shooting muskets. The filling was too slow at such a distance. Everyone picked up the bayonet and rushed forward directly. The bayonet was bleeding.

In the chaos, Li Xingzhou had no idea who he had stabbed, and only knew to stab forward with the soldiers.

As they formed a bayonet to assassinate forward, facing a team of Jingjun suddenly emerged from behind, these defeated troops were also disorganized. When they heard gunshots, the shadows on the battlefield were awakened and became even more scared, but driven by the desire to survive, they still did not collapse immediately.

Li Xingzhou led his men forward and killed them, but there was not much resistance. Most Liao people no longer had their attention, but instead rushed to the city gate desperately, wanting to enter the city.

The melee lasted for more than ten minutes...

Li Xingzhou gasped heavily, his blood and sweat mixed together, his lungs were so hot that he felt his whole body almost lost his strength. He could only rely on his willpower to support him and kept holding the gun and approaching forward.

Although practicing Bajiquan for many years has made him have a strong body at a young age, the real situation is that an ordinary person will fight with all his strength. Not to mention a minute, he will be out of breath and reach the limit of his physical fitness. Therefore, it is impossible for a battle between dozens of rounds and fives of rounds of fives on the battlefield. Life and death are only in a moment.

He didn't know how many people he stabbed, and his chest was stained with blood. The Liao people had no intention of fighting with them, just wanted to enter the city with fearlessness.

This turned out to be a desperate confrontation between perseverance and life. They wanted to kill the Liao people until they were afraid of giving up and entering the city, so as to rescue Di Zhi.

But the Liao people were desperate and just wanted to enter the city...

After persisting for so long, everyone was stained with blood and gasping for almost the ultimate. They had no reserve and could only grit their teeth and push them.

However, the defeated army was even more uncomfortable because they threw away their armor. Most of them lost all their weapons in order to run away, and most of them had no decent weapons.

Finally, after pushing forward a few more steps and killing several defeated troops, the outer defeated troops finally couldn't stand it. They gave up going into the city and fled westward. The people on the outside fled, and the people inside slowly couldn't hold on. The escape from the west soon formed a general trend. The Liao army defeated soldiers under the city turned around and ran away with their heads in their arms.

When the situation gradually became clear, Li Xingzhou breathed a few breaths while leaning on the gun. He looked up and saw that the bodies of people and horses outside Nanjing had accumulated into a hill, blood stained the surrounding land red, and the heat was still venting. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly shouted: "Di Zhi! Are you still alive? Let's make a sound when you are alive!"

No one agreed...

Li Xingzhou hurriedly rushed over and rushed to the city. He saw someone pushing the pile of corpses and crawling out of the city cave. Then several people came out one after another. They were all blocked by the pile of corpses in the gate of the city, and their whole body was dyed into a blood gourd.

"Ahem... Prince, I'm here, I'm fine..." After a while, Di Zhi also crawled out. Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to clear the pile of corpses, allowing everyone who was blocked inside to come out. In the end, only more than fifty people came out one after another, almost everyone was injured, and a few serious ones were still surging blood.

Li Xingzhou quickly asked someone to go up to help, bite the bullet oil paper, sprinkle gunpowder on the wound, and then ignite it. Although this method is risky and may cause the wound to be infected, the bleeding is not stopped in time, so they don’t even have the chance to survive and seek medical treatment. Use gunpowder to burn at high temperatures and instantly carbonize the wound. Although it is very painful and heart-wrenching, it can stop bleeding.
