Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 232 Showdown 2

"My lord, it's just this medicine. After three shots of our guns, we have to turn off the fire!"

On the top of the city, Niu Gensheng, the former leader of the Han army inlaid with the blue flag and now the chief banner officer of the Taiping Army Artillery Battalion, looked nervously at Zhao Sihai, a hundred households who were supervising the battle in the upper city.

Zhao Sihai glanced at Niu Gensheng and the Han army flag soldiers behind him, twitched his nose, spat on the ground, and scolded: "Open the cannon, didn't you hear what I said! No matter how many medicines are left, shoot me the cannon. , fill up these medicines, you all **** guys and follow me out of the city!"

Hearing this, Niu Gensheng's eyelids jumped and he hesitated: "Sir, our brothers are all gunners, this is about going out of the city..."

"Why, cowardly?" Zhao Sihai glared at him and sneered: "Could it be that Niu Zuoling still wants to go against the water?"

As soon as the words fell, the soldier Wu who Zhao Sihai brought up to the city and the old Taiping soldiers in the artillery camp immediately drew their swords and glared at the gunners with the flag of the Han army. As long as Zhao Sihai gave an order, they would be able to chop these gunners up immediately. .

This battle made Niu Gensheng feel nervous, and it also made those Han army flag gunners tremble.

Niu Gensheng laughed wryly and laughed at himself: "As your lord said, is it still possible to go against the water in the current low-ranking position? Many Qing troops have died under the cannonade of our brothers in the past few months. ▽ It's still the end of two corpses."

"That cowardly bird? Without these cannons, you won't be able to kill people!" Zhao Sihai snorted, intending to urge Niu Gensheng to lower the Han army flags. Mother, don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu here. Lord Qianhu has already left the city, so hurry up and fire at me. After the cannon, go out of town with Lao Tzu to find the demon and go all out! Lao Tzu doesn't believe that you guys are so cowardly. , without the cannon, you can't cut people's heads!"

"Don't worry, my lord, the brothers can still cut people!"

Niu Gensheng was heartbroken. The moment the Taiping Army opened the city gate, he knew that the battle of Xinhui was his mother's time to decide the final outcome. The Taiping Army is really going to be defeated, and it's useless to ignore what he thinks. Now he and his brothers' lives are **** with the Taiping Army.

With a fierce "bah", he ordered the gunners: "Listen to my orders and shoot!"

Hearing the order, the gunners hurriedly lit the arquebus, and the sound of "Boom, Boom" resounded in the sky of the new meeting.

"where?!"

The sudden sound of the cannon made Shang Zhixin, who was full of anger, pause in his footsteps, thinking that it was Jiang Shangming's naval division firing the cannon, but when he heard the sound of the cannon, it was clear that it was coming from the head of Xinhui City. Don't wait for him to send someone to find out. There was a screeching scream in his ears.

.........

"The soldiers of the Taiping Army follow me to slay demons!"

Zhou Shixiang took the lead, leading more than 2,000 Taiping troops to fight bravely to the Qing army camp.

The Qing army's green battalion in front of the defense line had low morale, and was shaken by the sound of cannons. Seeing the black Taiping army rushed out of the city and attacked them like a lifeless death, the army's heart collapsed suddenly, and no one thought of intercepting the Taiping army. They turned around and ran to the rear, and even some officers were running away. Soldiers without fighting spirit and generals without fighting spirit are the best portrayal of the current Qing army.

The Taiping army broke through the first line of defense of the Qing army almost effortlessly. This boosted the morale of the army even more. Seeing that the Qing army was so unbearable, Zhou Shixiang was also excited, knowing that he had made the right bet, that the Qing army, which had been besieging his side for several months, had already been strong outside and inside. As long as the Jiangshang Navy can send troops ashore in time to respond, this is the best chance to defeat the Qing army.

In order to expand the results and destroy the Qing army's defense line to the greatest extent, Zhou Shixiang ordered the Zhenlu Battalion and the Xiongwei Battalion to follow the fled Qing army to attack the second line of defense of the Qing army in front. Hujie Ying attacked the Qing army along the river to the west, so as to get in touch with the navy on the river. The trapped camp attacked southwards, and the three sides exerted their strength at the same time. Don't let the Qing army be divided into different divisions to echo each other, so that they can be defeated. He led the guard battalion to go deep behind the Zhenlu battalion and the Xiongwei battalion. While taking in the surrendering Qing soldiers, he monitored the movement of the entire battlefield and offered support to all parties at any time.

The trapped camp took advantage of the situation to attack inwards after capturing the east and west forts of the Qing army. Along the way, the Qing army either fled or surrendered. Except for a very small number of Qing soldiers who stubbornly resisted, the enemies of the trapped camp faced little resistance.

The east and west forts of the Qing army were blown up by the dead of the Taiping army, and then rebuilt. However, the number of artillery and the quality of the gunners in the east and west forts after reconstruction were not as good as before. Because the Taiping army suddenly left the city and moved quickly, the first The Qing army on the defensive line collapsed in an instant, so that the east and west fortresses fell to the Taiping army before they could fire a cannon. In order to effectively use the two forts of the Qing army, Tie Yi ordered people to pass information to the city, asking Zhao Sihai to quickly take over the east and west forts with the artillery battalion.

Upon receiving the news, Zhao Sihai, who had already led the artillery battalion out of the city, was overjoyed and rushed to the east and west forts of the Qing army with the artillery battalion.

The Qing army, who had not recovered from the nightmare that the first line of defense was easily broken through by the Taiping Army, was quickly attacked by its own fort. It has to be said that the Han army flag gunners under Niu Gensheng were powerful in their artillery skills. The Qing army's defense lines in the due south and due east were bombed to pieces, killing and injuring hundreds of Qing troops.

Nearly there was a desperate attack by the Taiping army, and there were artillery attacks in the distance. Coupled with the Qing soldiers who had withdrawn from the front, the entire Qing army's defense line was cut into several pieces by the Taiping army within half an hour after the start of the war. The blocks cannot be connected to each other, let alone the situation of each other, and they are only about to fall into a state of swaying and collapsing across the board.

In the chaos, the Qing army generals on the second and third lines of defense had to keep sending people to the camp for help, in addition to crushing the soldiers with bombs and trying their best to fill the gaps broken by the Taiping army.

Shang Zhixin's head was also beaten in the beginning~www.mtlnovel.com~ and he couldn't figure out what the current situation was. But after a wave of pleading for help, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. After ordering those generals who asked for help to defend the defense line, he hurriedly sent people to summon Ban Zhifu and Qin Guocheng, and wanted to order Ban and Qin to mobilize the elite soldiers of the flag to encircle the Taiping army out of the city and encircle the defense line. Huicheng. According to his judgment, there were not many Taiping soldiers in Xinhui City. Now they suddenly went out of the city to attack the Qing army's defense line, and launched them at the same time in various places. They broke through the first line of defense in an instant and were attacking the second line of defense, so obviously the thief was talented. It was the use of all the troops of the Taiping Army, otherwise it would be impossible to achieve such a big momentum.

The thief Xiucai did this. First, it was very likely to get in touch with the Ming army navy on the river and launch it at the same time. Second, it was also very likely that he could not wait to be forced to go out to the city for a decisive battle. There are definitely not many soldiers and horses who can stay behind. As long as the Taiping army's offensive is now blocked from the second line of defense, with the advantage of much more troops than the opponent, Shang Zhixin is absolutely sure to take advantage of the situation to attack Xinhui City. At that time, without Xinhui City as a support, the Taiping army who attacked the city will be rootless and will not last forever, and the final winner can only be He Shangzhixin!

The only trouble is that I don't know how many soldiers and horses the Ming army navy will send ashore, but no matter how many people the Ming army navy sends ashore, Shang Zhixin is determined to ignore it. The talent's plan succeeded. To be continued.
