Amid the rumbling drums, the Ming army advanced to the city of Nanchang.

Among them, Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan, the army that attacked the East Gate, had the most powerful momentum.

This is certainly related to their large number, after all, Zheng Chenggong brought a total of 60,000 people in this battle.

But more of the reason is that Zheng Chenggong intends to show off the style of the Zheng family army in this battle and leave a deep impression on His Majesty the Emperor.

Zhang Huangyan basically thought so.

Compared to Li Dingguo, Zheng Chenggong and him have never seen the emperor for many years, and they are naturally lacking in familiarity.

In this regard, Zheng Chenggong is probably not even able to compare with the Thirteen Kuidong families. After all, the main generals of the Thirteen Kuidong families have had contact with the emperor recently.

It is said that the eldest son of Duke Wan was admired by His Majesty and was repeatedly reused and promoted.

In addition to the sense of distance, Zheng Chenggong had 100,000 troops, both a powerful minister and a powerful general, so it was difficult not to arouse the suspicion of the emperor.

Even if the Emperor does not say anything, he will definitely be wary of it.

In this case, Zheng Chenggong needed to spare no effort to attack the city to win the trust of the emperor.

Only in this way can the emperor think that Zheng Chenggong is absolutely trustworthy and will not have any private hidden acts.

As for whether Zheng Chenggong can break the city first, it depends on luck.

Zhang Huangyan did not force it, but just hoped not to lose to others in terms of momentum.

Compared to when they first met Zheng Chenggong, the two have grown a lot older now and are no longer as relaxed as they were when they were young.

But at critical moments, you must show the fearless spirit of being young and frivolous.

The Zheng family army was dominated by infantry.

This has a great advantage in siege battles.

After all, the role of cavalry is very small in siege, and in the end, they have to jump off the horse and run to the corner of the city.

The infantry themselves have rich experience in hand-to-hand combat, and the Zheng family's army has rich experience in naval battles, so there are great similarities between platoon battles and siege battles to some extent.

Therefore, Zhang Huangyan was not worried about the efficiency of siege.

He looked around and found that among the nearly 200,000 troops of the Ming army, in addition to the exquisite armor of the Hu Ben Army, the Zheng family army was the most in place.

Not to mention the Iron Man Army, it was simply armed to the teeth.

With this kind of armor on your body, it is undoubtedly the best protection for soldiers.

"Brother Cangshui, let's beat the drum together."

Zheng Chenggong was obviously very excited.

He waited for so long and finally had the opportunity to fight with the emperor.

This opportunity is hard to come by, so he must perform as much as possible so that the emperor will not take the Zheng family army underestimate it.

"good!"

Zhang Huangyan was older than Zheng Chenggong, but this time he was excited by Zheng Chenggong. He walked to Zheng Chenggong and picked up a drumstick and said excitedly: "Let's come together!"

With the sound of drums, the Zheng family army had advanced under the city wall.

The rain of arrows shot from the city wall had little impact on the Zheng family army, just like a tickling.

This once again proves the importance of armor.

If the Zheng family army was equipped with the Qing army's cotton armor, there would have been heavy casualties before they could be under the city wall.

The fully wrapped armor ensures the safety of the soldiers to the greatest extent and ensures their combat effectiveness.

This scene scared the Qing soldiers on the top of the city.

How do you break up when encountering an invulnerable enemy?

The rain of arrows in these rounds is like it’s all shot in vain.

Seeing that the Ming army had already started to build a ladder, the Qing general guarding the city quickly ordered the preparation of rolling the wood and pounding the stone.

The Ming army's armor could defend against arrows, but could not defend against rolling wood and rocks.

The huge impact force of this thing hits the body is enough to smash the internal organs.

Even if he did not die at that time, he would not survive after suffering serious internal injuries.

The reserve of cities in the city is very sufficient, and there are many spares at the city.

The Qing army was not stingy and rolled wood and rocks to the city, for fear that the Zheng family army would stand firm and climb steadily.

The soldiers of the Zheng family army climbed very quickly, but they still seemed a little willing but not strong when they encountered the wooden rocks they smashed.

From time to time, soldiers were hit and fell from the ladder, making screams.

Most of them suffered internal injuries, twisted their bodies in pain, and kept rolling.

But the soldiers in the back row did not hesitate. They filled the vacancy directly and quickly crawled towards the city.

The Ming army built a large number of ladders, which was called the Qing soldiers at the top of the city that could not take care of each other.

If you can take care of this side, you can't take care of that side. Gradually, some Iron Man soldiers climbed to halfway up the city wall.

When the Qing general of the Shoucheng saw that the situation was not good, he quickly ordered the Yaksha to prepare for the shooting.

Yaksha Shooting is the biggest weapon to defend the city. One shot can sweep a large number of enemies.

The Qing soldiers exerted all their strength to activate the winch as they called the command, and the Yaksha pat was pulled up under the joint force.

"put!"

At the command of the Qing general, the soldiers slapped the yaksha and smashed it down hard.

The powerful impact force penetrated straight down and slapped at the Iron Man soldiers on the ladder.

All the soldiers of the Ironman Army are tall and can often play their ultimate advantage in the battle against the board.

But their disadvantages are undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

They are too tall, so their goals are very obvious.

Facing the yaksha shot that was swooping down, it was difficult for them to adjust their positions and could not dodge at all.

After taking a snap, more than a dozen Ironman soldiers were swept away.

Although the armor on their bodies ensured that they had no life worries, it was inevitable that they would suffer from heavy falls and suffered from severe injuries.

They fell heavily to the ground, making muffled sounds.

There is even a brittle sound of bones cracking, making the heart tighter.

Zheng Chenggong took all this, but he did not hesitate at all.

On the battlefield, life and death are inevitable.

In order to take Nanchang, no matter how many soldiers die, it is worth it.

Zheng Chenggong will definitely treat these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country well, and will never let their widows and children suffer and go hungry.

Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong... Zheng Chenggong's drum beat was even more urgent.

The soldiers seemed to be inspired by the rapid sound of snare drums, and the charge became even more resolute.

The Qing army at the top of the city changed wave after wave, but could not stop the Zheng family army's offensive, so they could only try their best to delay.

"Hurry, go and report to Hong Jingluo, and say that Dongcheng can't stand it anymore. Please send troops to help him quickly."

Qing's back was already wet.

Although he can barely withstand it now, if he continues to develop according to this momentum, it will be hard to say in half an hour.

The number of Qing troops at the city center of Nanchang is sufficient and can be adjusted in time according to the situation of the war.

"Get orders!"

The messenger turned over his horse, whipped the horse and galloped away.

"Does go, do them!"

Riding a horse and speeding on the top of the city is a very dangerous thing, but now I don’t care about that much.

In order to keep the city gate safe, reinforcements must be dispatched in time.

The battle situation changed rapidly, and the advantage of transferring reinforcements to defend the city was greater earlier.
