Chapter 380 Fighting all night for the moon
The Ming army and the Qing army's artillery bombed each other, and the bombings made people overturned the horses.
The Ming army was in a very embarrassing situation, but the Qing army was not much better.
It was originally very difficult to attack the city at night, and there were still waves of artillery fire from the Ming army.
But since Jishiha has made a plan, he will naturally not change it easily.
After a day of evaluation, he believed that the Ming army had reached the brink of collapse, and the night attack was the last straw that crushed the Ming army.
The Qing army learned the lesson of siege in the daytime and spread it as much as possible so as not to be bombarded by the Ming army.
Moreover, since the moat was almost filled when the city was siege during the day, they no longer had to work hard to fill the moat this time.
"Come on, those who are the first to climb to the city will be awarded their first merit and will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver."
Jesheha has increased his reward to 5,000 taels in order to stimulate the soldiers' desire to siege as much as possible.
After all, it cannot last until pressure alone. The right way is to use both kindness and power.
The Qing soldiers braved artillery fire and crossed the filled moat and ladders on the city wall.
Compared with the day, the Ming army's defense of the city is extremely short of supplies, leaving only a small number of stones and wood.
However, it was time to fight for his life, and the soldiers of the Ming army also tightened their strings and used everything they could use in their hands.
"Dog Tartars, I disturb my dreams, I will kill you!"
He Shuangli took a stone and smashed it down hard.
A Qing soldier climbing up the ladder was also unlucky. He couldn't see the situation above clearly at all when it was dark. After the stone was smashed down, he could not dodge and was directly smashed to his head.
The Qing soldiers below were also rubbed to the end like the hawthorn on the candied haws, and they fell to the ground and screamed.
But at the same time, more Qing soldiers climbed up to the top of the city along the ladder.
Under the cover of night, the Qing army's human sea tactics seemed to have played a role. The Ming army was unable to defend, so they could only be forced to fight with the Qing army on the top of the city wall.
Wang Ermazi had made similar preparations before, so he was not too frightened when he was really facing a fierce battle.
Although he was unable to move, he was still passionately commanding the soldiers to fight.
As for Li Shitou and Gan Hui, they assumed more responsibilities.
"Kill the enemy and serve the country, fight with the Tartars!"
"Defend Jiaozhou to the death!"
At this moment, the Ming army could not retreat at all. If the outer city could not be defended, even if it retreated back to the water city, it would be easy to be chased by the Qing army.
Therefore, the first wave of Qing troops must be driven down to the city so that they have the chance to evacuate.
At this moment, people's survival instincts fully played a role. Both the Laizhou Rebel Army, the Hu Ben Army and the Zheng Family Army used all their strength and devoted themselves to the fierce battle without reservation.
Even the militia raised their weapons and fought hard.
Although they had no experience in fighting, they had played a significant role in following the soldiers.
During the night war, the Qing soldiers could not tell which were the main force of the Ming army and which were the militias. They only felt that the number of Ming troops in Jiaozhou City was much higher than they imagined.
According to this ratio, their number is only two to three times that of the other party.
Although the advantage is still very large, they did not gain an overwhelming advantage when they attacked the city in the first wave.
The shouting and scolding in the night and the ping-pong sounds of weapons colliding are mixed together, which makes people feel very harsh.
The moment the skin was cut by the sword, blood sputtered out and dyed his cheeks red, which further stimulated the bloodthirsty nature of humans like animals.
"Go to die!"
He Shuangli's knife had already cut his mouth open. He slashed the neck of a Qing soldier with one knife. When he wanted to pull out the knife, he found that the blade was stuck in the bone, so he could only retreat with the flow.
"Old He, go ahead!"
He Shuangli looked back and saw that it was his good brother Chen Qi, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm.
Chen Qi threw a spear over, and He Shuangli stepped forward without hesitation and took the spear.
Hehe, this thing is easier to use than a knife.
"Thank you, brother."
He Shuangli raised his arms and said, then swung his spear and swept towards the Qing soldiers in front of him.
He likes to use spears very much, and the spear in his hand is full of vigor.
With this hard sweep, he swept down the city by more than a dozen Qing soldiers, and the length advantage of the spear was fully utilized.
Those aggressive Qing soldiers were unable to get close to He Shuangli. He only had the share of He Shuangli to beat them, and there was no possibility of them being beaten.
"Go to die!"
He Shuangli changed to a prick, and several blood holes were poked in the stomachs of the Qing soldiers.
Blood flowed down the wound, and the Qing soldiers covered their stomachs and cried and called their parents.
"Dog thing, the King of Hell told you to die in the third update, who dares to keep you until the fifth update!"
He Shuangli finally gained momentum, so he naturally took advantage of the victory to pursue it.
He found that the spear was surprisingly useful at the top of the city, not only powerful but also made up for the disadvantage of the small number of Ming soldiers.
"Call brothers and brothers to change the guys!"
The experience of fighting is often accumulated slowly.
Fortunately, the Ming army discovered it not too late.
In fact, this also caused an unequal weapon to attack the Qing army.
After all, in order to climb the city, the Qing army could only equip the soldiers with a horizontal knife at most, so they had to bite the hilt of the horizontal knife in their mouths so that they could free up their hands to grab the ladder.
In this way, if the Ming army uses spears, it can greatly suppress the Qing army.
The Ming army soldiers woke up as if they were dreaming. Yes, why did they fight with the Qing army with their swords?
They all dropped their knives and changed their spears, formed a simple square formation, and stabbed the Qing soldiers together.
"Enter!"
"ah!"
Screams came one after another, and the Qing soldiers were stabbed to cry and shouted at their parents, and instinctively retreated.
In this way, the Qing soldiers who had just climbed up in the back row were squeezed down by their companions and fell to death.
The soldiers of the Ming army must fight for every inch of land and do not give the Qing soldiers a chance to gain a foothold.
"In again!"
Space is the most important thing on the city wall. Without space, nothing can be done.
The Qing army's space was compressed step by step and there was no way to retreat.
Under the leadership of a centurion, the Qing soldiers began a fierce counterattack.
"Don't be afraid when you rush forward, the Ming thief is at the end of his strength!"
Although the spear is powerful, it is very heavy and it consumes a lot of energy when used for a long time.
Some Ming army soldiers have shown exhaustion.
This centurion saw this and called on the Qing soldiers to rush forward. As long as the Ming army's formation was dispersed, their chance would come.
Seeing this, He Shuangli cursed: "Grandma, a bear, the dog Tartars are coming to die, brothers will send them a ride."
Although he was already very tired, he still squeezed out all his strength and stabbed him hard.
Seeing this, the other soldiers followed suit.
At this time, I rely on one breath, and I must not let go of this breath!
"Kill the enemy!"
"Turn the Tartars down the city!"
"prick!"
Amid the chaotic roars, the Ming army united as one.
