Chapter 363 Self-defeating
"Run!"
Countless Tartars stepped on a road full of gravel and rushed towards Jinsuo Pass. The entire Jinsuo Pass was on a platform. The Tartars not only had to face the strong city, but also had to attack from below. The terrain was not good for them, but the Tartars were particularly fierce. They raised the ladder with their waists, and rushed up quickly in a large area.
"Tartars, take the call!"
Li Laiheng rubbed his hands and cut off the hemp rope with one knife. Suddenly, a thousand pounds of stone lost its restraint and rolled down the hillside. The Tartar, who was hunching his head, was caught off guard. The stone crushed one Tartar and turned into meat sauce. It continued to rush down and knocked down two Tartars in succession. One was also crushed, and the other was knocked away. One of them broke his arms and legs and fell to the ground. While spitting blood foam, he howled in pain.
The other Tartars were so scared that they avoided them, but at this time there were about a dozen equally huge stones in front of the city, all of which were temporarily tied with ropes. The Tartars rushed up, and the soldiers cut off the ropes one after another.
Body! Body!
Thousands of pounds, or even two or three thousand pounds of stones, were flying from top to bottom, and the crushing stone chips were flying everywhere, like giant beasts, like thunder, unstoppable.
The Tartars shouted in horror and dodged desperately, but they were dodging, and the people next to them also wanted to dodge. The two of them collided. At this time, the stones rolled down and crushed them all into meat pies.
More than a dozen stones rolled down together, and the narrow mountain roads and dense teams hid, where did they hide? A huge rock and a blood alley. Hundreds of Tartars were hit and knocked down by large stones and crushed by them. Only a dazzling dark red was left on the mountain road!
The stones kept rolling down, with a strong smell of blood on them, and fell into the valley. Obai looked at them and gritted his teeth.
"Don't stop, rush for me and take the Golden Lock Pass!"
The Tartars endured their fear and continued to attack towards the closing.
At this time, Li Laiheng also held a musket and pointed the black musket at the Tartars.
"Go to die!"
Without the cumbersome fuse, just pull the trigger and a lead bullet will be accurately shot out.
Bang!
A ball of blood bloomed in front of the Tartars' chest, a distance of 120 meters, piercing through two layers of armor! What force and how much damage!
During the Battle of Northern Shaanxi, the muskets in the Dashun Army could only be fired at most fifty steps. After one shot, the Tartars came to their sight. It can be said that the gunmen were almost shooting with their own lives.
But now, it is completely different. This is the advancement of technology. This is also the confidence to win!
Li Laiheng clenched his fists and shouted loudly: "Brothers, new and old hatreds, let's forget about it today, and beat me hard!"
The gunshots were like a blowout, and the Tartars in front of Guancheng kept falling down, one after another. The bodies rolled down into the mountain stream. In particular, the Anguo Army had already equipped some Minni guns in the army.
The lethality of these new guns is even more amazing. The lead-zinc alloy deformed the moment it hits the muzzle, and the wounds caused by hitting the human body are even more amazing.
The bullet penetrates the body and shoots a blood hole the size of a fist. Rotten flesh and blood splash out together. No matter how strong it is, as long as it is hit, it will be guaranteed to lose its combat effectiveness.
In front of Guancheng, there was only one musketman, but relying on his skillful three-stage shooting, he was like a group of most efficient farmers, constantly killing the Tartars like wheatgrass in front of him.
But the Tartars behind seemed to have no feeling. They ran faster. Moreover, these Tartars also learned to lean over and dodge, and even changed their routes to avoid shooting.
The Anguo Army is progressing, and the Tartars are also improving.
The Taoist is one foot taller and the demon is one foot taller. This is the unchanging law on the battlefield. With these skills, the Tartars controlled casualties and quickly approached upwards.
Li Laiheng gritted his teeth and sneered: "Some of your ability! Brothers, give them some more amazing things!"
In an instant, more than a dozen grenades rushed out. With the convenience of the terrain, they could easily throw the grenades for dozens of meters. Moreover, after these iron balls landed, they would continue to roll forward until they finally exploded.
Balls of smoke rose, and grenades exploded among the Tartars, and the splattered shrapnel flooded the Tartars. A white-armored soldier who was charging forward suddenly inserted a shrapnel into his neck, cutting off his trachea and blood. Blood splashed out from the wound, and as it flowed into the blood vessels, blood choked out from his mouth and nose.
The guy couldn't speak, so he could only widen his eyes, snatched his strong body forward for more than ten steps, and finally fell to the ground weakly. Next to him, there was a more unlucky guy. Although he was not hit by shrapnel, the stones stirred by the grenade explosion hit the eye. The sharp stones pierced the cornea, and one eye was immediately destroyed. He was in unbearable pain and couldn't help but run around. As a result, he was hit by five bullets, and his chest was smashed into a hornet's nest.
The Tartars suffered heavy casualties, but they were still getting closer to Guancheng, and bows and arrows and muskets could already threaten Li Laiheng and others in front of Guancheng.
Li Laiheng did not hesitate and immediately led his men to give up the front line and retreated directly into Guancheng from the small gates on both sides.
The Tartars rushed up with the flow. They shouted and put ladders on the ancient city wall. The group of people climbed the ladders and rushed up quickly.
The soldiers on the city were not polite and threw down the stones, smashing them into groups of people. Many of Li Laiheng's subordinates were old subordinates of the Dashun Army. Facing their former enemies, they would not be polite. They gritted their teeth and smashed the stones and wooden pieces one by one.
The Tartars would not be polite, especially Oboi, who regarded the Golden Lock Pass as the key to his victory, so he sacrificed his life! The Tartars were like a tide, and they surged up one after another.
Before the city of Guancheng, it was a mill of flesh and blood, with corpses piled up, layer after layer.
"careful!"
Li Laiheng shouted loudly and rushed to Yang Shenyan's side. Several Tartars touched the city. Li Laiheng raised his big knife and chopped the leading Tartars without hesitation.
The Tartar dodged to the side, but the movement was slower after all, and was hit by Li Laiheng's shoulder. However, this guy was indeed fierce. He suddenly abandoned his weapon and grabbed Li Laiheng's knife with both hands. He screamed strangely. Behind him, a Tartar rushed up hard, raised his short axe, and was about to chop Li Laiheng.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the Tartar's head was suddenly beaten away, his brain cracked, and his body thrust towards Li Laiheng. Li Laiheng grabbed his axe and waved his hand to chop the Tartars. His arms were cut off. With a wave of his hand, his head was also cut off.
"Sir Yang, when did you learn to kill someone?"
"I'll do it long ago!"
The one who shot just now was Yang Shenyan, who killed countless people when Li Laiheng was in the Dashun Army. This was his second time to kill people. Although he was not as frightened as the first time, he couldn't sleep for three or five days, but his heart was still rumbling.
He could only grit his teeth: "The Tartars are so sinful that they will go to hell!"
"Yes, kill!"
Li Laiheng rushed towards other Tartars like a tiger, like a tiger, and under the city. The bodies were piled up like mountains, including Tartars and Anguo Army.
The battle continued, and the surging offensive of the Tartars did not stop at all. From the evening to the night, torches were set on both sides and they were still killing.
Although the Tartars suffered heavy losses, fortunately they had enough people and could still take a break, but the Anguo Army in Jinsuo Pass only had one battalion, and everyone could not rest. They even had to endure the spasms in their stomachs and struggled to kill the enemy.
"Old Yang, this will not go on. I think all the people will be transferred."
"Are they okay?" Yang Shenyan asked.
"It's enough to move the stones. Many monkeys have more than three points of strength, telling them that if Guancheng is lost, even if An Guojun does not kill them, the Tartars will not let them go."
Yang Shenyan could only nod and hurriedly walked down the city tower.
But as soon as he went down, a soldier ran towards him.
"Report to the deputy battalion commander, reinforcements are coming!"
"Where are reinforcements? Take me to see!"
Yang Shenyan followed the soldier and rushed towards Nanguan. When he climbed to the city, he saw a fire dragon in the distance, quickly approaching. There was a commander under the city, standing below.
"Sir, we were sent by the prince. Open the city gate quickly. Brothers are waiting to enter the city to kill the Qing soldiers!"
"How many people have you come, more than two thousand."
All the soldiers on the city wall smiled happily, and their eyes fell on Yang Shenyan.
"Battery Commander, now we've gotten better, and there's another regiment. We're not afraid of anything!"
A strange thing suddenly flashed in front of Yang Shenyan's eyes, and he shouted loudly at the bottom: "Brother, who are you from?"
"Sir, you all serve the prince, please open the city."
Before this guy could finish his words, Yang Shenyan suddenly raised his hand gun and hit the head of the soldier's war horse with a gun. He fell down immediately. He also rolled down from above, falling far away, and the military cap on his head was gone!
"It's the Tartars!" The soldiers on the city suddenly woke up, and through the lanterns on the city, they could clearly see the whip behind his head.
"shooting!"
Suddenly, several musketeers fired together, knocking the guy to pieces.
"It's so dangerous, Deputy Battalion Commander, how did you see it?"
"An Guojun called the official title. Those who don't know the official title are also called the chief. The title of the master has long been abolished. I can't tell my own number clearly. I only know that it was sent by the prince. Don't they know that the chief generals in Shaanxi are two generals, Li Guo and Gao Yigong? The tactics of the Taurus are trying to deceive us, but they are still in the Taoist practice!" Although Yang Shenyan said this, he was also moved just now and almost fell for the fool.
"The deputy battalion commander is so smart!"
"Don't flatter, go and call all the civilians to the South City to guard against the Tartars!"
The soldiers finally woke up. The Tartars were in front of them, and the long dragon behind them must have been Tartars. They went down to the city in a hurry, called all the civilians, and sent them to weapons. Those who had no weapons used shovels and shovels to rush to the top of the city.
