Whether it is the Qing Dynasty outside the pass or the Ming Dynasty inside the pass, Jinzhou is a very important strategic location.

The Ningjin battle back then was like thunderous bait. At this moment, they were still half a day away from Jinzhou City. It is said that the Forward Battalion had arrived at Jinzhou City, and Jinzhou garrison Toruchi refused to open the city gate.

This person is also a powerful general in the Qing Dynasty, but he did not let him in when he entered the pass. He let this guy be stationed in Jinzhou to ensure the safety of his retreat. Unexpectedly, it was a blessing in disguise.

If Dorgon and the others had followed him into the pass, it would be very glorious at that time, but it would be hard to say what he would become now. After so long, Dorgon almost forgot about this person, but he did not expect that this person was still in the position of the Jinzhou garrison.

However, it is easy to understand some things. The famous generals of the Qing Dynasty followed Dorgon into the pass, and there were very few people who stayed outside the pass, and Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang did not carry many troops when she came back.

Therefore, these generals outside the pass will definitely rely on it. After hearing this name, Dorgon frowned. He excluded this guy and did not let this guy enter the pass. Now his signature is probably useless in front of him.

With this uneasiness in my heart, the army finally arrived outside Jinzhou City. After years of war, the Ming army finally came back, but the city walls of Jinzhou are no longer as good as before.

After the Ningjin War, although the Qing Dynasty built the city walls of Jinzhou, it did not broadcast much silver. In addition, it was soon reported that they were about to enter the city, so no one cared about this project.

After entering the capital, it was located in the back of the entire Qing Dynasty, and no one cared about it. So when I stood outside the city wall and looked at the dilapidated city wall, I felt a certain county town.

"Can't handle this guy?"

When he came, His Highness the Crown Prince had already said that the reason why Dorgon followed was to exert Dorgon's ability to the extreme.

If the defenders surrendered, we would be able to save a lot of trouble, so Zhang Dashan took the lead in asking Dorgon to see if the people inside could surrender.

After all, hundreds of thousands of Qing troops had entered the prisoner-of-war camp, and the thousands of defenders in Jinzhou City were useless.

"Go down and try again."

Dorgon was not sure about this matter, but he had already praised Haikou in the capital. No matter how difficult this matter was, he had to continue to do it.

Otherwise, they will lose their own role. How could the Ming Dynasty court look down on a useless person? Do you think other people’s rice is for free?

Zhang Dashan knew that it might be impossible when he saw Dorgon like this, so as soon as Dorgon set out, Zhang Dashan ordered his artillery regiment to pull out the cannons.

If these people don’t get to the road later, we have to fight all the way.

Although the Qing Dynasty surrendered, there were too many internal factions. There were Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang in Liaodong, Duoduo and Ajige on the Mongolian grassland, and Haoge at the west end, which was a headache.

After a while, someone here heard the insults on the city wall. The people on the city wall didn't take Dorgon seriously at all, and even scolded this guy so much that he was so angry.

It was said that Dorgon recognized the thief as his father, but he actually brought back the Ming army, which was an insult to his father and his brother.

Dorgon was also full of shame. He didn't know what to say under the city wall to face his tribe members. He couldn't open his mouth and could only come to Zhang Dashan in a mess.

"Okay, okay, go whatever you should do. You are useless at this station. Let's stay behind. Wait for a while. If something happens, it will not be enough for me to write a report."

Zhang Dashan did not ask Dorgon to explain, and sent the guy directly to the back. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also emphasized several times that Dorgon is useful, and Zhang Dashan was also afraid that something would happen on the battlefield would not be easy to explain to the above, so he might as well find a place to rest.

Dorgon also looked ashamed. He didn't say anything at the moment and ran to the back. He had seen the combat effectiveness of the Ming army in the capital. If those people could surrender just now, they might be able to save their lives.

The strength of the Ming Dynasty was beyond doubt. The number of people from the Qing Dynasty was getting smaller and smaller, especially these young and strong men. If they lost more on the battlefield, they might really be exterminated in the future...

Although Toruchi had never been to the battlefield in the mainland, this guy has also heard from some people that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is also very brave.

If you face the enemy head-on with them, let alone 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry, it would be difficult for even 120,000 to 30,000 cavalry to pass through their musket formation.

So this guy made up his mind to let everyone huddle in the city. We can't go out anymore, right?

But some things are not as good as you think. Seeing that the Qing people did not mean to go out of the city to fight, Zhang Dashan would be nothing to be polite.

I had already found out in advance that there were only a few thousand defenders in Jinzhou City. I guess after a round of artillery bombardment, these guys would know how to choose. If you hesitate on the battlefield, the cannon will make a good choice for you. This is what His Royal Highness said, and has been verified by countless people.

Zhang Dashan was very clear about this principle. Although he brought an artillery regiment, he only placed twenty Amsteron field artillery guns in front of the city.

In his opinion, it is enough to have these twenty artillery guns. One base is five shells, and one hundred shells will go and see the situation first.

The sound of dongdongdongdong rang...

Twenty cannons were neatly arranged, almost shooting directly at the city wall.

Originally, the walls of Jinzhou City were no longer decent. After being hit by shells, they instantly turned into one big hole after another. If the walls had not been built thicker at that time, they would have collapsed now.

When did the Jinzhou garrison see such a situation? It turns out that they have also seen artillery from the Ming Dynasty, but how could the explosion be so powerful?

Moreover, the attack on the city walls used some solid shells. Now it's better. The explosion of the shells not only caused a big hole to blow up the city wall, but if some soldiers were closer, they would be blown into pieces.

Toruchi was also stunned and thought that he could take advantage of Jinzhou's natural danger to defend for a longer period, but the enemy did not give him any chance. If he could hold on for half an hour according to this style of play, we would be lucky...
