The battle started at Chenshi and the Green Camp's first attack, and it was noon. Both the Qing army and the Taiping army were exhausted and hoped that the other party could not support it and defeat it. However, as time passed, both sides knew in their hearts that the fierce battle was far from over.

The Shang family's soldiers did not seize the city wall after losing hundreds of people, which made Shang Kexi, who was watching the battle, feel uneasy, but did not order the withdrawal of troops. Instead, they ordered to continue the attack and take down Xinhui City at all costs.

"Prince, the thief still has the strength to do. Our army is too severely damaged. Should we withdraw first and then fight?"

Seeing that so many soldiers were broken, Xinhui City was still firmly controlled by the Taiping Army, Ban Zhifu couldn't help but want to persuade Shang Kexi to withdraw temporarily.

Shang Zhixin also said: "Father, please withdraw your troops first. Wait until tomorrow, and your son will lead someone to take this new tour to your father!"

"retreat?"

Shang Kexi's face was plain, and there was no sign of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. He looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice: "Do you know that one move will decline again and then be exhausted? If we retreat now, we will not be able to take back this Xinhui City!" After saying that, he stopped talking to the two of them, raised his hand and ordered the guard to go and pass the order.

well!

Ban Zhifu sighed inwardly, and the monk Zhixin looked at each other, not knowing why Shang Kexi insisted on this. The two of them were puzzled, and the other generals under the Pingnan vassal were inexplicably confused. They were very confused about the decision of King Pingnan. However, Wu Guoli, who was standing next to everyone in a low-key manner, was not paying attention to the corner of his mouth, obviously knowing why Shang Kexi made this decision. If he was not wrong, the reason why Shang Kexi wanted to retake the Xinhui at any cost may be related to the imperial edict received by Governor Li Rutai three days ago.

Shang Kexi was determined to regain Xinhui today. His order soon reached the ears of the generals. The sound of the trumpet of the King of Pingnan urging troops sounded again, which made the exhausted Qing army join the fight again without any breath. The shouts of killing were wave after wave. The Taiping army on the city wall responded to the Qing army's shouts with muffled roars. The soldiers stood by their posts, while the officers kept running back and forth. They waved the long sword in their hands to rescue the dangerous marches.

The increasing casualties made Zhou Shixiang and a group of officers learn how to defend the city. The Taiping Army no longer gathered in groups like before. Instead, it was divided into several small teams, one with a team of four people, one with a knife, one with a spear, and the other two worked together to hold a fork that could push the ladder. The four of them cooperated with each other. Once they found that a Qing army was climbing up the ladder, they held the fork and pushed the ladder. If they could not push the ladder, the soldiers holding the spear stabbed the Qing army with their heads, and the soldiers holding the knife would cut it straight away without a neutral blow. With this cooperation, the momentum of the soldiers climbing the city was effectively curbed, and the casualties of the soldiers who were regarded as treasures by Shang Kexi gradually increased.

Except for the four guards in the squadron, the more than 100 musketeers in the Guards were no longer dispersed, but were divided into four teams, each with twenty or thirty people. Under the command of the officers, these twenty or thirty gunmen were bombarded under the city. This kind of shooting was much more effective than the previous blind shooting, causing considerable casualties to the Qing army.

After Liao Ruixiang went down the city, he found Zhao Sihai and transferred 300 security team members to the city. These security team members cooperated with the original young and strong people on the city to cook and splash the gold juice. The dumping of the wood was thrown away. In addition to continuing to transport supplies from the city to the city, the rest spontaneously smashed the Qing army with stones and bricks. With the cooperation of several parties, the Taiping army's defense became organized and large-scale, which made the Qing army under the city more headache and even more desperate.

In order to prevent it, Zhou Shi told him that Jiang He, a bald man from the Guards, and Li Fuguo, immediately led the remaining troops of the Guards to stand by under the Dongcheng City and were ready to go to the city to reinforce. (Author's note: In the previous article, the Guards should be Lin Zaisheng, and Zhang Erjiang should be the Hujie Camp and tried a hundred households) At the same time, he ordered Hujie, who guarded the other three gates, to be trapped in the battle, and Xiongwei, each of the three battalions, to be on standby and transferred to the Dongcheng City at any time.

"Think about your wives and children!"

"If the Tartars break the city, they will be the first to cut off our Taiping Army's head. The second to cut off your head!"

"If you want to go back alive, cheer me up. The Tartars are also humans. You are also humans, fight with them!"

""

On the city wall, officers from the Zhenlu Battalion and Guard Battalion cheered the security team members and young men. These security team members and young men knew that they would not be able to work hard now. Once the city was broken, the whole family would definitely suffer the whole family, and those without a family would not be able to survive. The cruelty of the Tartars was not something to say. If the city was really broken, the old and young men in the city could have a living!

"I'll push you to your lungs! I'll push you to your lungs!"

Fan Si moved a stone to the squadron with force, then shouted and pushed the stone down. I don’t know where the courage came from, Fan Si actually looked down at the city, and his face suddenly became happy, "You are a slaughter street, die well, die well!" But it turned out that the stone was smashing a Qing soldier who had just climbed halfway up the ladder and blooming.

The biggest disadvantage of the Ant Support Siege is now fully revealed. The gathering of Qing soldiers has completely become a living target on the city. A big tree falls and a piece of it will fall down. A stone will never fall down. The hot golden juice falls down and it will burn to death.

The Qing army was also fierce, and the soldiers of our family were even more willing to go out. The people who went up fell down, and the people below climbed up again. There was no empty space on the ladder for a moment, and it was full of Qing soldiers climbing up. Two ladders even fell apart because the weight of the Qing soldiers climbing were too large. The Qing soldiers who fell from above injured many of their companions below.

On the other side of the city gate, the shield chariots of the Green Camp still made no progress, and nothing was found except for the constant sound of hitting the door. The Han army of Zhenghuang Banner commanded by Geng Zhongde did not organize people to climb the city, but only suppressed the city with bows and arrows under the city, which caused very little casualties to the Han army of Zhenghuang Banner. If it weren't for Zhenghuang Banner, Geng Zhongde was the uncle of King Jingnan, Qin Guocheng would have chopped off his head as a urinal.

Most of the Han army in the Inlaid Blue Flags from Guangzhou rushed to the city, but Xinhui East City was only two miles long north and south. Thousands of Qing troops were siegeing the city at such a narrow distance. It is conceivable that many flag soldiers could not squeeze into the city, but only shouted three or four from the periphery. Most of the flag soldiers who could not squeeze into the front to climb the cloud ladder to attack the city were very happy. They were glad that they did not die like the cannon fodder of the green camp, and glad that they did not become the living target of the Taiping Army in the city like our soldiers.
