1702 Approaching the Imperial City

A staff officer stepped forward and said, "The Qing army in the city is still resisting! The main reason is that the young emperor and Dorgon are still supervising the battle in the palace! On the other hand, those who can station in Shenyang are the elite Qing army, and their fighting will is relatively firm! So they are still resisting now! But the resistance power has become weaker and weaker!"

Liu Pei asked: "How is our casualties?"

The officer said: "The casualties in the city are higher than those outside the city! After all, the terrain inside the city is too complicated, and the Qing army also built a large number of barricades. If they seize them one by one, they will be killed or injured!"

Liu Pei thought for a while and said, "I ordered the troops to let go of the north gate. No, it is not completely letting them go to the distance to block the enemy, but we must leave enough room for the Qing army to escape!"

The staff officer understood it and then said, "I understand. Once so many holes are leaked, the Qing army's will to resist in the city will decline a lot!"

Liu Pei nodded and said, "That's right, just do it! But I remember one thing, Dorgon and the others are absolutely not allowed to escape!"

The officer agreed to make arrangements. Soon after, the Shandong army at the north gate of Chenyang City began to retreat quickly, and no more than a dozen square formations were arranged four or five miles away! The dozen square formations loosely formed an arc, wrapping the city gate far away!

However, the gap between the square array is very large. A discerning person can tell at a glance that these gaps are tempting to get in! As long as you get in, under the attack of the musketeers on both sides, there will probably not be more than half of the people rushing out!

But in the eyes of the fugitive, that is half the chance of survival! Everyone wants to bet on whether they can escape, or everyone feels that they have hope of escaping! So after confirming that Shandong soldiers did retreat and let the city gate open, a large number of Qing soldiers flocked out of the city gate and prepared to run away in all directions!

But after they left the city gate, they couldn't help but hesitate a lot when they found themselves surrounded from afar! They looked at the gap between the square formation and were afraid that they would be killed immediately as soon as they stepped into the death trap!

When the Qing army gathered more and more at the gate of the city, there was finally a cavalryman

He leaned on the horse's back and rushed towards a passage! It seemed that he was thinking of escaping with the speed of the war horse! But unexpectedly, the musketeers on both sides of the square formation were like they didn't see him, and let him run over!

In this situation, the cavalry writer ran a long way before opening his eyes. When he saw him running out, he couldn't help but be surprised! But he didn't have time to sigh, and ran away with the whip of the war horse!

Seeing this person running away, the Qing soldiers could no longer resist the desire to escape, and each chose a passage and rushed over! In fact, they knew that the guy who was let go was a way to lure them all into the trap, but they could not suppress the desire to survive, and they only hoped that it was not themselves who died, and they all began to escape!

So a relaxed and orderly killing started in each passage! The musketeers raised bullets and shot at each other, and easily shot the running Qing soldiers! And these Qing soldiers were like pitiful elks and did not dare to resist, and only knew how to run desperately!

At the same time, when running away, everyone kept themselves in the middle as much as possible! Countless people trampled on each other and died of this! Even so, no one dared to approach the musket soldiers on both sides, which shows that the morale of the Qing army had completely collapsed!

Now the musketeers are too lazy to pursue these defeated soldiers, just send cavalry to drive them away slowly! They just need to cause the greatest possible damage to the Qing army!

Moreover, as Liu Pei opened the city gate and asked the Qing army to escape, the pressure in the city suddenly decreased a lot! After all, when there was no way to live, many people would choose to fight the trapped beasts, but with a way to live, it would be different. We always have to try it to see if we can escape?

Hao Yun, who was attacking the palace, was sensitively found that the power of resistance on the other side was weakening. He immediately ordered the reserve team to join the battle without hesitation and began to attack forward with all his might! After they cleared a rather luxurious mansion, they could already see the exterior wall of the palace!

But they were strongly blocked when they approached the outer wall of the palace! The Qing soldiers on the wall used bows and arrows and bird guns to shoot each other across the street from Hao Yun! And these Qing soldiers were fierce.

I was afraid of death. Even if a person was shot down from the wall, another person immediately showed up to take over his position!

Seeing this scene, Hao Yun couldn't help but curse loudly: "Damn it, it's the Tartars of the Zhenghuang Banner! Where is the artillery, what about the artillery? Pull our artillery up!"

But he said loudly, "No, brother! The cannon cannot be sent at all! As soon as our people showed up, dozens of arrows were shot over, and now a cannon is thrown at the intersection of the street. Our people are simply unreliable!"

Hao Yun said, "Take me there and see!"

Hao Ping'an had no choice but to take Hao Yun to the direction of the street, but saw that there was indeed a cannon there, and there were corpses of more than a dozen Shandong soldiers lying around! It can be seen that these soldiers wanted to use cannons to bombard the opposite wall, but were killed by the other party's feather arrows and lead bullets! As a result, the cannons were too close to the opposite side, and they were controlled by the other party!

Hao Ping'an pointed to the cannon and said, "Brother, look, there are bird guns and bows on the opposite side. Our people just go up, and they can't even get close to the cannon, let alone fire it!"

Hao Yun looked carefully and found that the Qing army was most careful in the street entrance! Not only did they arrange manpower on the wall, but they also took out many holes in the wall, and could fire bird guns through these holes! At such a close distance, bird guns and bows and arrows were all shot!

Seeing this situation, Hao Yun frowned tightly! Now he and the palace are separated by a wide street. As long as he can break through the palace wall first, he can definitely get his first achievements! But in this case, he can't fill in the brothers' lives!

Hao Yun began to look at the surrounding situation and look for places to be used. However, the nursing staff were surrounded by the residences of powerful people, and there were high-walled courtyards everywhere, and there was no terrain for classes to use!

However, when Hao Yun saw that the holes dug out by the Qing army in the palace wall were all facing the street intersection, he had an idea! He shouted to Hao Ping'an: "How many artillery do we have in our hands now?"

Hao Ping'an said: "Six sects, one sect is abolished!"
