Maoer Mountain.

The Qu Chengen's troops outside the city have been besieging the city for almost a month. During this period, they did nothing but build high platforms to the north and east of the castle.

Like Tonggou Fort, Maoershan Castle (Linjiang City) has waterways on the east side and the south side, only the north side and some open land on the east side. However, unlike Tonggou Fort, Maoershan is a serious castle built with brick and stone structure. In addition to the Toudaogou River in the west, the Yalu River in the south, the north and the east side, the moat also introduced.

Therefore, it is not a little difficult for the Hanhai Army to conquer this fort.

What's more, Boluo went north to rescue Guanjie Fort last time to send troops to fight Qu Chengen in a big battle. In the end, Yue Le retreated halfway, and Boluo's infantry was also defeated in the battle with Qu Chengen's infantry, and they both retreated back to the castle.

Strangely, Qu Chengen did not pursue the victory. Now that I think about it, most of them used Maoer Mountain as bait to attract other Qing troops to come to rescue. Unexpectedly, no Qing troops came to rescue.

However, reinforcements went to Tonggou Fort, but unfortunately the entire army was wiped out not long ago.

The city is tall and the walls are thick, and there are more than 2,000 troops. There are artillery on the walls. The most important thing is that the Yalu River is still under Boluo's hands, and his navy is still there.

But the problem now is that the barbarians built two high platforms to the north and east. After the high platforms were completed, the tops were as high as the city wall. As they began to move the cannons up, Boro knew what they wanted.

Blast against the cannons on Maoershan Castle!

It was indeed a bombing, and soon Boro realized the power of the opponent's artillery bombardment.

The two Gaotai Mountains opposite were covered with sandbags. When the shells on the side fell on it, they did not have any greater effect except hitting the sandbags or falling on the positions behind the sandbags.

However, the opponent's artillery seemed to be mainly small artillery, but over the years, it could accurately deliver the artillery shells to the city wall and continuously kill the artillery soldiers on the city wall.

Ten days later, the artillery near the north and east walls were almost completely lost. In the end, Boro had no choice but to give up the two bombings. A few days later, he tried to get the ordinary infantry to reel artillery so that he could continue to fight against the opponent, but unfortunately exploded a gate, causing multiple infantry casualties to be killed and injured.

Since then, the infantry has been reluctant to fire artillery.

However, Boluo was still a little relieved - the navy of Yalu River was still in his hands.

On this day, Boluo felt a little uneasy and came to the city wall near the Yalu River.

The weather is still hot, and it has been extremely hot these days.

"It's going to rain"

Boluo took a walk first, and was so scared that he followed his two white flag guards quickly stood beside him, fearing that the artillery opposite would fly over again.

But Boluo himself looked at the two high platforms without fear, and snorted coldly.

"Once heavy rain comes, how can your platform built purely with soil last long? Also, your camp is still built at the foot of the mountain. Don't you know that unless it doesn't rain, it will take half a month at once. At that time, the flood and mudslides will be enough for you to bear."

It was morning at this time, and the water vapor that had been circulating on the Yalu River for several days under the scorching sun formed a heavy fog, and the distance was vast.

Not far away from the other side, on the island of Jiangxin, separated by a river, the village walls of the Navy Camp are safe and sound, and boats of all sizes and small at the docks on both sides are mooring quietly.

It is rare that there is silence around you - except for the endless cicadas chirping on the surrounding mountains.

Boluo stood on the city wall for a while and was sweating profusely. According to the rules set by Lao Khan, no matter whenever the generals and officials were required to wear full clothes during inspections, Boluo did not dare to act rashly. He also covered his cotton robe with iron armor, and the helmet with a stern neck was not allowed to be hot.

Fortunately, in this Changbai Mountain area, even the summer is not too hot. Even so, the Jurchens who are used to the cold are still complaining.

"one two three……"

Boro endured the heat and counted carefully at least the ships on the dock.

According to his regulations, the Navy Battalion must send two to three ships upstream and downstream to patrol twenty miles a day.

"boom!!!"

As he counted, he could only hear the sound of artillery from afar. The sound was faintly coming from there, and I don’t know where it was. However, the ships at the dock below quickly determined the direction earlier than him. Soon, ten slightly larger ships started to move upstream.

“Upstream?”

Boro's thick eyebrows furrowed again.

"There are no strongholds for barbarian thieves except the docks of the Koreans."

"Boom boom boom..."

Just as he was thinking, the roar of artillery was constantly coming from the upstream direction, Boro was very nervous. His naval battalion ships were also equipped with a small number of Flang machine cannons, but only a few ships were equipped. I don’t know if the roar of the cannon was issued by his own ship or by the enemy.

"Is it that hateful North Koreans who turned against each other?"

Not long after, the ship that emerged from the fog confirmed his thoughts.

About five ships on our side were running in front, followed by about twenty slab boats slightly larger than our side’s ships. Boro was very familiar with the standard of that kind of ship, and he had some of his navy camps, so he was forced to come from the Koreans!

"What a thief!"

Boro was furious and raised the monocular in his hand.

This look even more furious!

The navy was really Korean, but the decks of those slab boats were equipped with many Flanger cannons, each one being larger than their own cannons. The roaring sound just now was mostly made by them, and the people who cast the cannons and some soldiers were obviously Sauron barbarians!

Did the Sorens force the North Koreans to do it, or did the North Koreans have defected to the Sorens? It is no longer the focus now. Under his order, the personal soldiers around him quickly blew up the horns they carried with them.

The meaning is also very clear.

"Enemy attack! Beware!"

Not long after, something that disappointed Boro irreversibly happened. With the blessing of those artillery and muskets, his navy was defeated!

Some ships fled downstream, and a considerable number of naval troops quickly died and injured under the other side's terrifying shotgun strike, and some simply surrendered.

"Fire the gun! Fire!"

Boro was furious and immediately issued an order of indiscriminate bombardment.

Sure enough, under the bombardment of artillery on the front of the city, the slab boats avoided and drove out of the waterway on the side of the castle. During this period, soldiers were killed and injured by artillery on the front of the city.

But soon Bolo was disappointed again. After sailing out of the waterway, the ship immediately came to the south of Jiangxin Island and stopped from there!

There, the range of the cannons on the front of the city has exceeded.

Not long after, the entire Jiangxin Island Navy Camp was occupied by the enemy!

"Bomb the Navy camp!"

Boluo naturally could not sit still and watch this happen, so he issued a new order again - the cannons at the top of the city can still hit the water village near the castle on Jiangxin Island.

"boom!!!"

His orders have not been conveyed yet, and the sound of artillery came from other directions of the castle.

"Battle thief!"

At this time, there were no gunners on the north side of the castle, and now there were still gunfire sounds. Needless to say, the barbarian thief must have started firing guns again.

He pushed away the guards who blocked him and ran quickly to the east city wall. Through the gap of the female wall, the telescope, the movements and stillness of Gaotai Mountain opposite were visible.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but gasp.

At some point, the barbarian thief pulled two more cannons. The two cannons were obviously not Flang machines, but definitely red cannons!

In fact, it was not a red cannon, it was just a short-barrel of 500 kilograms and 800 kilograms that had just been transported from Shuangdianzi. However, even so, their range was much stronger than that of the Florence cannon.

"call out……"

I saw a cannonball flying over Boro's head and finally landing in the castle!

Boro hugged and ran to the west wall.

"Kala!"

I saw a shell landing on the gate of the city wall in the west, breaking through the black tiles on the upper floor. Perhaps the shell was at its end after reaching this place. After a "bang", it did not bounce up again and caused damage.

But it would be too dangerous to stay on the city wall at this time.

But the city was not safe either. The barbarian thief's shells began to fly over on a large scale, and most of them fell into the city.

Under the desperate escort of seven or eight Bayala guards, Boro barely returned to his mansion, which had a cellar and a two-story house.

But unfortunate things happened one by one. As soon as he arrived there, Yue Le ran over with a worried look on his face.

"Second brother, there is a fire in the city!"

"There is a spy? Can you catch it?"

Boluo remained calm at this time, and he grabbed Yue Le.

"No", Boro grabbed Yue Le's neckline, making him almost breathless, "It's a shell"

"Castball?"

"It's not an ordinary shell, it's a hot hot shell!"

"A hot hot bullet?" Boro was still a little confused. At this time, a hot bullet flew to his house. He leaned closer and saw that, "What a guy, the iron bullet is still red!"

"What a thief!"

It’s useless for him to curse now. As more and more bombs flew into the castle, the castle was a sea of ​​fire in a short time!

"Get out of the city! Fight to the death with the thief!"

Boro looked determined, and then ran to the barracks regardless of the cold bombs falling around him.

When he arrived near the barracks, he collapsed with a resolute look on his face.

The military camp was already full of fire, and cavalry and war horses on fire continued to fly out of the camp gate!

...

"Bang!"

It was a hot bullet fired by the navy on Jiangxin Island. All the hot bullets here were aimed at the suspension bridge. Not long after, a raging fire broke out on the suspension bridge.

As if he realized something, the soldiers in the city began to put down the suspension bridge desperately.

"Bang!"

The suspension bridge finally fell, but when it hit the opposite ground, it broke into two pieces!

All the soldiers in the city were stunned.

"Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

At this time, the soldiers who rushed to the city gate jumped into the moat, and the soldiers on the city wall didn't care about that much. At this time, the entire castle had turned into a huge stove. Not to mention in the city, they couldn't even stay on the city wall.
Chapter completed!
