Chapter 378 Bloody Battle at Shanhaiguan (Daily Update 5/5)

"boom!"

"boom!"

In Xiluo City outside Shanhaiguan, artillery roaring and the earth shaking!

Archers fired thousands of arrows at once, and the rain of arrows fell into the dense Dashun army like locusts. The rafted arrows harvested the lives of Dashun soldiers, and blood flowed into a river under the gate.

"boom!"

The Dashun army used an ancient catapult to fight back fiercely, and a thousand kilograms of huge rocks repeatedly bombarded Xiluo City, and Xiluo City was also trembling!

Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng were already jealous at this time, and the two of them were dying!

Li Zicheng learned from Xu Tian that Wu Sangui colluded with the Qing army, and was furious and killed Wu Sangui's father Wu Xiang with one knife, and sacrificed his blood to the end of the flag.

The Dashun army was instigated by the heavenly soldiers and generals, and the Dashun army attacked wildly, braved the bombardment of Shanhaiguan artillery, pushed the siege tower, collided with cars, and launched a large-scale attack on Shanhaiguan.

Every moment, countless soldiers were killed.

Xu Tian did not participate in the bloody battle in Shanhaiguan.

He had seen through the plan of the Qing army leader Dorgon.

Dorgon adopted the tactic to "wait for work with ease and take action later."

To put it clearly, that is, when Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng both suffered losses, then the Qing army reaped the benefits of the fisherman.

If the Qing army intervened too early and fought against Li Zicheng, who still had enough energy, then even if the Qing army could win, it would still be a tragic victory, and Wu Sangui might become the final winner.

Dorgon saw far.

The only forces in the north that threatened the Qing army were Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng.

If Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng fought hard and both sides suffered losses, the Qing army could enter the Central Plains without any resistance.

When Xu Tian saw Dorgon's plan, he decided to wait for his work and use Li Zicheng's Dashun army to put pressure on Shanhaiguan.

The main body of Shanhaiguan and Xiluo City are mutually supportive, and it is the most difficult to attack.

The Dashun Army will be subjected to arrow rain and artillery attacks from the North and South Wings, and the situation is not very good.

As the first level, Shanhaiguan is definitely a classic Eastern Fortress with a complete defense system.

"The north side of the North Wing City is Beishan, which can be placed in a high position and launch an attack and capture the North Wing City."

Xu Tian observed the terrain and found that the North Wing City was the easiest to attack.

Li Zicheng sent the largest general Liu Zongmin to lead troops to attack from the north.

Xu Tian sent general Chang Yuchun to assist Liu Zongmin in attacking the North Wing City, using Liu Zongmin's soldiers.

As for generals such as Xu Da, Zhao Yun, Qin Liangyu, etc., they preserved their strength and waited to fight against the Eight Banners Army.

"You are very strong and qualified to charge against me, Liu Zongmin."

When Li Zicheng's general Liu Zongmin saw that the heavenly soldiers and generals sent a fierce general Chang Yuchun, he believed that Chang Yuchun's force was not inferior to him.

Chang Yuchun snorted coldly.

If it were in the same era, Chang Yuchun looked down on Liu Zongmin because the two were not on the same level!

"kill!"

Liu Zongmin assembled 120,000 Dashun Army to climb the Beishan Mountain, and then followed the mountain and set off from a high point to launch a charge!

The Dashun Army descended like a tiger!

Chang Yuchun did not bring any soldiers, but only helped Liu Zongmin to conquer the city with his own bravery!

"Shoot the arrow! Stop these mud legs from climbing the city!"

The Shanhaiguan Guards followed their chief general and did not want to fall into the hands of the Dashun Army, so they shot arrows wildly, and bursts of arrows broke through the air and shot the Dashun Army!

"Kill cattle and sheep, prepare wine and sorbet, open the city gate to welcome the King of Chuang. The King of Chuang will not pay food when he comes!"

Liu Zongmin activated his fanatical skills, and the Dashun Army fell into fanaticism and continued!

On the battlefield, there were the bodies of Dashun soldiers full of arrows everywhere.

The bronze cannon continued to shell, and the soldiers of the Dashun Army who were hit by solid bullets exploded directly, making them blurred blood.

However, the fanatical Dashun Army still flew into the fire, ignoring the casualties of its companions.

The soldiers of the Dashun Army carried the flying ladder and used the simple flying ladder to capture the city.

The Dashun Army paid a heavy price and stubbornly climbed the city wall and fought with the Shanhaiguan defenders.

Liu Zongmin held a pair of big swords, and the blade was shining with white light. Wherever the white light went, the Shanhaiguan defenders were cut into two pieces!

"die!"

Liu Zongmin kicked a shield soldier away with one kick, and the giant shield was sunken. The entire shield soldier was kicked away for more than ten meters. He screamed and fell from the walls of the North Wing City, smashing to pieces!

"Bloody battles in all directions!"

Chang Yuchun held a gun and advanced on the city wall. The tiger-headed golden spear burst out from time to time to shock the enemy!

boom!

The tiger-headed Zhan golden spear smashed a Shanhaiguan defender on the battlements, and smashed them together with the ribs and battlements!

Chang Yuchun is comparable to the God of War. He takes all his strength to kill these Shanhaiguan soldiers who were originally the Ming army!

This is also a traitor!

"Kill him!"

Several Shanhaiguan guards came to attack Chang Yuchun with various weapons, but were defeated by Chang Yuchun with guns and flew backwards.

More and more soldiers of the Dashun Army attacked the city wall and gradually occupied the outer city.

Under the offensive of Liu Zongmin and Chang Yuchun, the North Wing City was eventually captured.

At Xu Tian's request, Le Yi served as the main general to attack Xiluo City. The power of siege equipment such as siege, siege tower, bed crossbow and other siege equipment doubled and continued to bombard Xiluo City.

Wu Sangui personally guarded the city and fought hard to resist the Dashun Army.

Wu Sangui and his group were determined to surrender to Dashun, but surrendered to the Qing army and vowed to resist to the death.

Originally, Shanhaiguan was even more majestic, but under Le Yi's offensive, it was still difficult.

Maybe Shanhaiguan will be broken!

The war lasted for a day, and as the north wing city outside the city, the south wing city was captured!

Only Xiluo City can still support it under the defense of the demonized Wu Sangui.

But it won't last long.

"General, the bandits' offensive is fierce. If this continues, Shanhaiguan will definitely be lost within three days, and we will all be killed by Li Zicheng!"

The generals and generals under Wu Sangui's command gathered beside Wu Sangui, with pale faces.

Le Yi, Li Zicheng, and Liu Zongmin attacked Shanhaiguan fiercely, and even if Shanhaiguan was a powerful pass, it was still shaky.

Shanhaiguan General Gao Di has been killed in battle, and dozens of other generals have also been killed or injured.

"Dorgon's Qing army stagnated in Weiyuan Fortress. Dorgon's wild wolf eats people and does not spit bones!"

Wu Sangui gritted his teeth.

The Qing army had arrived at Weiyuan Fort two miles away from Shanhaiguan City. However, Dorgon did not enter the city for a long time, but watched Wu Sangui be attacked by Li Zicheng and Le Yi, and remained indifferent.

Wu Sangui is also a hero, how could he not know that Dorgon is starting a price!

Dorgon asked Wu Sangui to surrender to the Qing army in shame, and also asked Wu Sangui to be the vanguard to fight Li Zicheng. Only when the Qing army was waiting for labor would he be willing to attack Li Zicheng.

"I'll go see Dorgon!"

Wu Sangui was already irreconcilable with Dorgon, so he led a few generals to the Qing army camp of Weiyuan Fort, two miles east of Shanhaiguan.

Weiyuan Fort is in the eastern part of Shanhaiguan. It originally had a supportive force with Shanhaiguan to resist the Qing army, but at this time, Weiyuan Fort became the camp of the Qing army, which is ironic.

Dorgon sat in the main seat, with black air swaying. The following two columns were the Eight Banners such as Ajige and Duoduo.

These first or second generation Eight Banners are not the playboys who played birds in the late Qing Dynasty, but military generals with military achievements, and each of them has a strong aura.

Wu Sangui knew that it was a critical moment of life and death.

If he did not make any statement, the Qing army would not be dispatched and he would be killed by Li Zicheng.

Finally, Wu Sangui suddenly knelt down and bowed, "If the Qing army did not want to help me, I would not go back to Shanhaiguan. When Li Zicheng captured Shanhaiguan, the Qing army would not be able to escape!"

Dorgon played with the dagger in his hand and accepted Wu Sangui's request.

Wu Sangui shaved his head and married Princess Jianning, a daughter of Huang Taiji.

"Your troops, with Baibu as the vanguard, serve as the vanguard, and fight against Li Zicheng in front of Shanhaiguan. At the critical moment, I will lead troops into the pass, bypass your army, and attack Li Zicheng's flank."

Dorgon expressed his decisive battle plan.

Wu Sangui's face turned pale. Until now, Dorgon still wanted to weaken his power.

Once Wu Sangui's Guanning Legion is severely damaged, he will always be the dog of the Eight Banners.

On the west side of Shanhaiguan, Xu Tian faintly realized that he had put enough pressure on Wu Sangui, and the Qing army should have entered the pass soon, so the decisive battle began.
