1513 Blast the city gate
In the blink of an eye, the two cars were pushed like flying! When the wheels were rolled over the stones, they almost flew up! They were directly pushed into the city gate hole by dozens of strong men!
At this time, the soldiers of the Daxi Army on the city wall felt that something was wrong, so they threw stones at these people under the command of the officers and shot feather arrows! Although the musketeers desperately intercepted and shot, the dozen people behind the car still fell to the ground! But the two knives successfully pushed the city gate hole!
As a result, a wooden board was opened from the side of the car, and the fuse hidden in it was pulled out, then the fuse of the other car was taken and the two sets of leads were twisted together, then the fire was taken out and the fuse was lit!
He carried the fuse and was sure they were all burning, then the officer shouted: "Run quickly!"
These people immediately carried their shields on their backs and ran back with force! The Western Army on the top of the city shot a round of feather arrows at them, shot several soldiers behind the palace and watched them drag the wounded to the back of the wreckage of the Daopai Car!
At this time, what happened in the city gate had been reported to the leader of the Daxi Army. The leader was named Meng Qingbao. The man named Duoxinhu. His family was originally a Wuxun family, but the family had become civilians.
Later, after being bullied by the rebels, he followed Zhang Xianzhong wholeheartedly and granted a general position. Seeing that he was smart, Zhang Xianzhong sent him to guard Jianmen Pass.
At this time, he and Liu Haikuan were dispatching soldiers under the city. When Liu Haikuan heard the soldiers’ reports, they didn’t feel anything, Meng Qingbao reacted! He shouted: "No! Open the city gate quickly and push the car out!"
Meng Qingbao pulled over the personal soldiers beside him and said, "I'll go to the city gate, you can transfer people to come immediately and block the city gate!"
The personal soldier asked blankly: "How many people are called?"
Meng Qingbao shouted loudly: "The more, the better!" Meng Qingbao ran towards the city gate. Liu Haikuan was unclear, so he ran behind him. In order to prevent being bombed by artillery, the two of them stayed about 500 steps away from the city gate. At this time, they wanted to run over but could not reach it in a short time.
And although Meng Qingbao shouted loudly, the various sounds on the battlefield made him sound
The voice covered it up. The soldiers guarding the city gate did not even see him running over!
When Meng Qingbao ran closer, he shouted loudly to his side: "Hurry and open the city gate!"
The soldiers were stunned when they heard this. Liu Haikuan grabbed Meng Qingbao and said, "Will you open the city gate at this time? Are you crazy?"
Meng Qingbao shook Liu Haikuan's hand away and said anxiously: "It's too late to explain, open the city gate!"
The soldiers guarding the city gate were unclear, but they still took off the thick door bolt according to the order. As soon as the soldiers opened a gap in the city gate, Meng Qingbao and Liu Haikuan saw a red light flashing in the crack! Meng Qingbao only had a thought flash in his mind: "It's over!", and then he was engulfed by the fire!
At this time, two gunpowder trucks exploded in the city gate, smashing the two city gates to pieces, and the city gates opened! However, the city walls were mostly made of local stones and were very strong. In addition, there was insufficient gunpowder, so the city gate did not collapse. However, all the soldiers of the Daxi Army on the city wall were shocked to the ground and could not get up for a while!
Qi Qitao, who was standing in the distance, staring at the city gate, saw the explosion of the city gate, and the entire section of the city wall trembled, and immediately shouted happily: "Blow the trumpet! Blow the trumpet! Charge!"
The trumpeter behind him immediately blew the charge! The Shandong soldiers who had been waiting for a long time immediately shouted and rushed forward!
At this time, the musket soldiers under the city took the lead. They stuck their bayonets at the muzzle and rushed into the city gate. At this time, the soldiers on the city gate were shocked by the gunpowder explosion and were unable to counterattack.
Meng Qingbao and Liu Haikuan were both killed by explosives, and the Western Army had no leader. Only scattered soldiers were fighting back. But they were either killed by muskets or stabbed to death by bayonets. So the enemy Zhan Yan at the door was swept away when he saw it!
But a large number of soldiers from the Daxi Army were coming from behind Jianmen Pass! These people were the people transferred from their personal soldiers. If Meng Qingbao had the more, the better, he would almost mobilize everyone in the city! The dark group of people rushed towards the musket soldiers of more than a thousand people, and the disparity in force was eye-catching!
The musket soldier officer had never seen this situation, and he felt a little cold for a moment! He knew that if he could withstand him
Everyone, breaking the city is the first achievement! But if you can't stand it, you may die here!
But he gritted his teeth and raised his command knife and shouted: "Line! Line up! Five lines of horizontal lines, blocking the city gate and horse road!"
The musket soldiers quickly lined up and prepared for a volley. Fortunately, the houses near the city wall were demolished by the Western Army, and the remaining few buildings were also shattered by flowering bullets, so the shooting range was very clear!
At this time, the commander issued another order: "Squat down on the first and second rows, get bayonets! The third row is ready to shoot a salvo!"
The soldiers quickly executed the orders, and in the blink of an eye, a row of volleys shot out! Without waiting for the commander to give the order, the soldiers in the fourth row went up to the front wheel to shoot! They also knew that the longer they could suppress the other party, the better! Because their reinforcements were coming!
After three consecutive rounds of volleys, they did pause the striker of the Daxi Army! But the crowd of the Daxi Army still rushed over with the fire of muskets!
At this time, the remaining soldiers of the Daxi Army on the city wall had woken up from the aftermath of the explosion. They were panicked when they found that someone had already rushed to the city and spontaneously organized a counterattack on the city wall!
They shot arrows at the musket soldiers lined up below the city! The feather arrow shot from behind killed and injured many people! Another group of people continued to throw wooden thunderstones in front of the city wall to try to block the attack!
This sudden and sudden blow from behind caused many people to be killed and injured in the musketeers' queue in the city! But the commander gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry about the back! It's like a wheel shot in front!"
The commander knew that as long as he guarded the city gate, the Jianmen Pass would be destined to be taken down! As long as he could persist in the arrival of the team outside the city, it would be okay even if all of them were killed!
So under his command, the soldiers did not look behind them at all. They let the feather arrows on the top of the city shoot, and shot them out with their own guns, knocking all the soldiers of the Daxi Army who rushed over to the ground!
